Chapter 129 Weird Neighbors in the Base
After finally finishing cleaning, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian were covered in sweat.
Gu Luan went into the bathroom to take a shower.
The water supply in the base also requires points, and there is a limit on the supply to each household every month.
Few people will use water to rinse their bodies casually, at most they will just wipe them.
Gu Luan came out of the shower and called Jiang Xian to take a shower too.
After he entered the bathroom, Gu Luan walked to the air-conditioning fan to cool down.
While enjoying the air-conditioning, I was thinking about what to eat later.
There was the sound of a woman cursing from next door.
After a while, Gu Luan heard someone knocking on his door.
Gu Luan frowned and walked to the gate.
The man probably saw that no one opened the door, so he knocked louder and louder, "Is anyone there? Open the door quickly!"
Gu Luan was not happy when he heard her impolite tone.
She knew that if she didn't open the door, the woman would never give up.
"What's up?"
Gu Luan opened the door and her eyes fell on the person in front of her.
The visitor was a woman in her early thirties.
He had a mean look, bulging eyes, and was wearing a slightly yellowish white short-sleeved shirt, and he emitted a sour smell.
Gu Luan held his breath and took a step back.
Ding You was holding an old slipper in her hand, with a few dead insects on it.
She did not answer Gu Luan, but stood on tiptoe to take a look at Gu Luan's house.
"I'm your next-door neighbor. My name is Ding You. Is the air conditioner on in your house? Let me in for a while."
Ding You spoke bluntly, put on his slippers and rushed to Gu Luan's house.
Gu Luan's face darkened, and he held a dagger in his right hand, pointing it at Ding You.
When Ding You saw the dagger, he stopped in fear and smiled awkwardly.
"If you don't want me to, then don't. I smell insecticide in your house. There are a lot of bugs in my house too. Can you lend me the insecticide?"
Gu Luan was almost amused by Ding You's remarks.
Who gave her the face to ask for it? And she took it for granted.
"Sure, thirty points."
Gu Luan naturally has a way to deal with this kind of people.
If you want to take advantage of her, wait for your next life.
Hearing that Gu Luan actually wanted points, Ding You almost yelled, "We are neighbors, why are you so unfriendly? Give me some, what's wrong?"
"Neighbor? Since you're my neighbor, please move all your food supplies to me."
"What the hell do you want? How dare you be so shameless and want my family to give you all the food."
Ding You put his hands on his hips and cursed loudly.
A cold look flashed in Gu Luan's eyes, and he swung the dagger lightly.
The cold blade light scared Ding You away, and it almost cut her face.
"You know you're so shameless, you actually dared to ask me for insecticide."
Gu Luan took a step forward and Ding You took a big step back in fright.
Jiang Xian heard the noise outside the door, took a quick shower and came out.
Seeing that there was such a tall and strong man in Gu Luan's house, Ding You knew that he would not get any advantage today.
He left with a lack of confidence, saying "wait and see", and staggered away.
"Who's outside?"
When Jiang Xian walked to the door, Ding You had already closed it.
He didn't see anyone at all, he just knew it was a woman.
"A rogue, go in."
Gu Luan closed the door and didn't take the incident seriously.
There are too many people like Ding You, they are everywhere, there is no need to care about them.
The two of them had a casual bite at noon and took a nap at home in the afternoon.
When the two woke up, it was already evening and there were a lot of voices coming from outside.
"Would you like to visit the market on base?"
Seeing that Gu Luan was bored, Jiang Xian made a suggestion.
Gu Luan thought about it and went out with Jiang Xian.
There are several trading markets in the base, one in each area.
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian drove to the trading market in Area C.
Because the temperature is much lower at night, most people choose to set up stalls in the evening.
The market runs across a long street with many shops on both sides.
Not far from the shop, there are some small stalls.
The street lights are on and you can see quite a few people coming and going.
I don’t know what’s going on, but there are a lot more rats outside recently.
Most of the people who went out to look for supplies caught a lot of rats.
They would keep the rat meat for themselves, and sell the uneaten ones in the market.
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian came to the market wearing masks.
The two did not choose crowded places, but walked casually on the sparsely populated streets.
Gu Luan walked and looked along the way.
She found that there was a lot of dried rat meat on the stalls.
"Boss, are there a lot of rats recently?"
Jiang Xian stood in front of a small stall, pointing at the rats placed on the stall.
The stall owner was a man in his fifties. When Jiang Xian asked him this, he smiled and said, "A lot, especially on the mountain. There are simply too many."
The stall owner picked up the rat in front of him and tried to sell it. "The rats I caught are very fat. Do you want to buy some?"
"How much?"
Jiang Xian asked the male stall owner with a smile, but his expression looked a little heavy.
"Ten points for one. This is meat. Ten points for one is not expensive at all. Want one?"
Seeing that Jiang Xian was interested in buying, the male stall owner tried to sell him something enthusiastically.
"No, we don't have enough points."
Gu Luan spoke first and took Jiang Xian's hand and left.
The two looked much gloomier than when they were shopping just now. They were upset and no longer in the mood to go shopping.
After leaving the trading market, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian got into the car.
Jiang Xian didn't start the car. He sat in the driver's seat with a serious expression on his face. "Aluan, what do you think?"
"Jiang Xian, do you think my dream will come true?"
Gu Luan's hands were covered in sweat and goose bumps appeared all over his body.
She had never experienced a rat plague, but she knew how terrible it was.
Countless rats not only eat a lot of things, but also bring plague.
By then, there will be widespread death.
"Aluan, this time it might be scarier, but I'm not sure yet. We need to go outside and see the situation tomorrow."
"good."
Jiang Xian didn't say where to go, and Gu Luan didn't ask.
No matter where you look tomorrow, if something is really going to happen, there will definitely be signs.
Gu Luan knew that they would definitely find clues that others had overlooked.
Early in the morning, the two set off without having breakfast.
Jiang Xian was driving the car, and Gu Luan took out a bun from the space and handed it to him, and ate it herself.
After he finished eating, I handed him another one, and finally gave him a cup of soy milk.
More than ten minutes later, Jiang Xian parked the car at the foot of a nearby mountain and got out with Gu Luan.
At five o'clock in the morning, before daybreak, they had already seen quite a few people walking around.
Because there were people there, the two men did not park the car, but just found an open space to park it.
Gu Luan raised his head and looked around the mountains and forests in front of him.
There are some small hills nearby, roughly counting them, there are about five or six of them.
Although the five or six hills are not big, they are full of rats.
Gu Luan couldn't imagine how many there would be.
If so many rats all ran out, what would happen to the entire city?
Will everyone die in the rat swarm?
