Chapter 9 The least valuable thing is money
Half a month after the doomsday, there was a power outage and water shortage, but the Internet was not completely disconnected, the signal was just unstable, and a message of a few words took half a day to send.
At night, the whole city was plunged into darkness, as if it was covered by a pair of invisible giant hands, making it so oppressive that it was difficult to breathe.
Liang Yingsheng knew that he would never see the bright lights that were unique to the city again.
After enduring the night, when the sun comes out, the light returns again.
Liang Zhimo was still responsible for lunch, two bowls of fragrant rice noodles with mixed sauce.
To avoid attracting attention, the heavy blackout curtains were still drawn, and a battery-powered desk lamp was on in the room.
Liang Yingsheng bought a lot of battery-powered electrical appliances, which are more convenient than charging and replacing batteries in time.
In the space, she used three large boxes to store batteries of various models.
"Sister, how are things with my parents?"
"We live a good life and even have a small vegetable garden at the door."
However, perhaps after today I will completely lose contact with my relatives and friends.
Liang Yingsheng first told his parents and casually some precautions for surviving in the apocalypse, and then found the community owners' group, which was still bustling.
"It's over, it's over. My power bank is broken. What should I do now? Does anyone have an extra power bank that I can borrow? I can also buy one myself."
Liang Yingsheng wanted to laugh when he saw the word "money". In the end times, money is the least valuable thing.
Sure enough, no one replied to him.
"It's been half a month, why hasn't the country sent anyone to rescue us? I've been drinking rice soup every day lately, and there's only one bowl of rice left. If this continues, I'll have no choice but to risk my life and go out to find supplies."
"Please, does anyone have any fever-reducing medicine? My daughter has had a high fever for two days."
'Buddha, please bless this disaster to pass quickly. Everyone, please pray with me!'
"My dad got scratched, and I locked him in the room, but my mom called me a beast!"
"The corridors of our building are full of man-eating monsters. I dare not go out at all. I am starving to death. Can anyone help me?"
By the evening, even the internet was completely cut off.
Liang Yingsheng knew that many people in the community had run out of ammunition and food, and were probably ready to take action.
The braver ones will go out to look for food, while the timid ones will choose to steal or even rob.
During this period, Liang Yingsheng and Liang Zhimo would take turns sleeping in the living room. Today, it was Liang Yingsheng's turn.
I had just finished watching a movie and took off my headphones to get ready for bed when I suddenly heard some noise outside the door.
Suddenly sitting up, Liang Yingsheng stared at the closed door in the darkness.
A few seconds later, she tiptoed to the door. The surveillance camera was no longer usable after the Internet was disconnected, and now she could only observe the scene outside through the peephole.
She even put a privacy film on the peephole.
Standing outside the door were Yang Xianglian and her son.
After not seeing her uneducated son for a long time, he looked even more slovenly.
After removing the sound insulation cotton stuck on the crack of the door, I could finally hear the faint conversation between the two people.
"Mom, are you sure this family has food stored?"
Wang Jianyu pressed his ear against the security door outside. "This door looks so strong, I'm afraid we can't open it."
"I don't know what that little bitch was thinking. During that time, I saw her hire a decorator to install a door. Do you think she knew something in advance?"
"How is that possible? She must be suffering from paranoia. Why don't we trick her out?"
Speaking of this, a gleam of light flashed in Wang Jianyu's eyes.
The woman named Liang Yingsheng was fair and beautiful, and he had been coveting her for a long time.
"You're planning on knocking on the door and waking people up in the middle of the night? The glass door downstairs isn't very strong. If something breaks in, we're all doomed!"
Wang Jianyu began to get annoyed. "What should we do? Otherwise, you and Dad will go out to find food tomorrow?"
Yang Xianglian seemed to be well aware of Wang Jianyu's selfish character. After a moment's silence, she pointed to another household and said, "That old couple is out traveling. They should have rice and flour at home."
With rustling sounds, the two disappeared at the door.
Liang Yingsheng breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Jianyu had a habit of stealing since he was a child, and it was said that he could even open simple door locks.
Because of this, when she changed the door, she also replaced the lock with the one with the highest security index.
Early in the morning, just as the sky was getting light, Liang Yingsheng heard the sound of faint footsteps again.
The heroine said: Please vote, please recommend, only money can make me energetic enough to fight zombies.
