Chapter 134 The Black Death
"You, you, you..." The man outside the door was so angry at Xie Yun's words that he couldn't catch his breath and started coughing violently towards the door...
Xie Yun stepped forward and grabbed Yu Duoduo, who was watching the fun, and stepped back. As he stepped back, he took out a bottle of alcohol spray from his pocket and sprayed it more than ten times in the direction of the door.
This operation stunned everyone inside the door and pissed off the family outside...
He kicked the door twice and went downstairs cursing.
After the others left, Xie Yun explained: "You have heard of the Black Death, right? It is the same as plague and cholera. It is a highly contagious disease that can be transmitted through droplets and contact. The mortality rate of this disease is over 75%.
Since the people downstairs showed symptoms of plague after being bitten, it means that these black rats are carrying the virus.
Look at these black rats, they are all very big. When they were hiding, they must have eaten a lot of corpses in the water, so they can reproduce so quickly. They may carry other viruses and bacteria. We still have to be careful!"
Tong Zi bowed deeply towards Mao Ku who was coming out from a corner with a fresh hot mouse in his mouth.
"Mao Ku, you are my savior. From now on, I will make sure you won't starve as long as I have something to eat!"
Mao Ku was stared at by everyone, and the mouse in his mouth fell to the ground with a plop. The round mouse immediately tried to run away after landing, which scared Tong Zi so much that she screamed -
Maokus stretched out his front leg and pinned the mouse down again, doing so with ease and freedom.
It took everyone several hours to take inventory of all the supplies stored on the two floors.
Thanks to the contribution of the Maoku family, the loss was not too great. Only a few furs and two bags of rice were torn. The only thing that was lost was the vegetables that were grown.
Fortunately, Xie Yun planted enough at one time, so he was able to preserve half of it.
The marinated mutton was hung by Tong Zi with an iron hook in the air in a room on the 11th floor, and it had no time to be eaten by the black rats.
"Should we also install a door at the staircase on the 11th floor to avoid direct contact with people on the 10th floor?" Wei Dong suggested.
"I think it's okay!" Yu Duoduo agreed.
"However, there is one thing I think I should mention. Should we consider taking turns on night duty these days?" Wei Dong said with a serious expression.
"You mean~that group of people will come to cause trouble again in the near future?" Tong Zi asked.
"It's hard to say. The soldiers sent out to do the job haven't returned. They will definitely come to investigate. After all, it involves a big business of 10,000 kilograms of grain and 2,000 kilograms of pork!" said Yu Duoduo.
"What should we do if they suddenly attack again? We don't have many bullets!" Minan said worriedly.
"The possibility of them attacking again is 99%. After all, the loss of 20 people and more than ten rifles is not small. If they don't come, they will suffer a great loss.
As for the 1% possibility, the invasion of black rats may become that accident!" Wei Dong analyzed.
"Why?"
Xie Yun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Because this disease is too severe, not only is the source of the disease sufficient, but it also spreads very quickly.
The natural disaster began more than three months ago. The gangs have been active for so long that they must have looted a lot of rice, flour, oil, meat and other supplies. The more supplies they store, the more likely they will attract rats.
Here alone, we have caught two large bags of dead rats, and Maoku hasn't even stopped to rest. There will naturally be even more rats over there in the gang.
There will be more cases like what happened to the family downstairs. The people who are bitten will spread the virus from the rats to others through contact and conversation. Soon most of the gang members will fall down unless they have medicine. "
After listening to the analysis of Xie Yun and Wei Dong, the people on the 12th floor felt that based on the current situation, the 1% possibility was even greater than the 99%!
Because now they only need to stick their heads out of the window to see with their naked eyes that the water outside is almost completely black!
Underwater, the figures swimming quickly like schools of fish are groups of black rats.
In just one or two days, the number has reached an astonishing level!
Probably before the Huijiang River burst its banks, this species was still surviving below. When the reservoir burst its banks, the number of corpses on the water surface increased sharply, which became an opportunity for them to increase rapidly.
The people on the 12th floor made a duty roster and posted it on the door of the physical education room. The six people were divided into three groups, taking one shift every night.
Yu Duoduo and Xie Yun are in one group, Tong Zi and Wei Dong are in one group, and Min Nan and Le Yan are in one group. The duty room is in the physical fitness room, and the same group is divided into three groups to determine who will guard the first half of the night and who will guard the second half of the night.
Tonight, the first group to keep watch are Yu Duoduo and Xie Yun.
They were the most fully equipped. They took out the camping supplies and single air mattresses that they had bought for free from outside, one for each of them, and placed them in front of the window.
The two agreed that Xie Yun would guard the first half of the night, from 12 to 3 o'clock, and Yu Duoduo would guard the second half of the night, from 3 to 6 o'clock.
"In your previous life, did Xiyue use the Qinglian Gang's connections to threaten you?" Yu Duoduo asked.
Xie Yun shook his head and nodded.
"I saw her asking the Qinglian Gang to attack someone else, but it was all caused by me, so it can be considered a threat to me."
"Were you together in your previous life?" Yu Duoduo couldn't help but ask curiously, otherwise how to explain Xie Yun's abnormal attitude towards this woman.
Xie Yun looked at Yu Duoduo like he was a fool, "My eyes are not blind."
Yu Duoduo??? What does it mean? Is this a statement or an irony?
"In Xiyue's emotional world, there is no such thing as sincerity, only whether or not you get it.
What do you think is the point of being with someone like this, just to be someone else's toy? I'm afraid it's too late to escape."
Xie Yun sneered.
"Yeah, I figured it out." Yu Duoduo curled his lips.
After all, what normal woman would, in order to pursue the man she likes, even use the power of the gang to kill everyone around him and then kidnap him!
This is not pursuing a man, this is probably a mountain king trying to steal a bride.
Yu Duoduo could tell from Xie Yun's tone how unhappy that past event was to him, but some things had to be faced. After all, the current predicament was caused by him.
"Then how much do you know about the Qinglian Gang?"
Xie Yun frowned and stared into Yu Duoduo's eyes, "What do you want to do now?"
Yu Duoduo felt embarrassed by his gaze, licked his cracked lips, and said with a smile:
"Don't be nervous, I'm doing this for everyone's future!
Even if the Qinglian Gang is temporarily hampered by the rat infestation and plague, this problem will eventually be resolved.
When they have time to send a large force, or directly use bombs to blow up the building, we will be crushed to death in a matter of minutes, without any room for resistance!"
"How do you know they have a bomb?"
