Chapter 4 Walking out of the hospital building
Lan Shiruo saw two rotting corpses at the gate connecting the basement to the underground driveway. Both had their heads chopped off by the generals. One was a custodian, presumably on night watch, and the other was a delivery driver. It was unclear who bit whom, but both were now rotting corpses, wandering the area. The gate was closed, so they must have entered to avoid disaster, and then someone else became a rotting corpse, or perhaps they did so simultaneously. Both were so rotten that it was unbearable to look at them, and it was impossible to tell which one had died first.
What made Lan Shiruo happy was this large delivery truck, with a load capacity of several tons, which drove in directly. Inside was a variety of brand new medical equipment. It was really a bargain for her.
With a wave of his hand, he folded the entire truck and the entire basement into the storage space. These were all medical supplies, placed on a concrete floor.
After making sure that there was nothing left, he took the generals and ministers into the space.
The general was confused for a moment, and tilted his head to look at his old master, "Woo woo?" What's going on?
Lan Shiruo was touched by this cuteness and laughed so hard that her body shook with laughter. "This is our secret space. When you get tired of fighting, you can come here to rest for a while, but you can't stay for long. As for why, I don't know yet, but it doesn't matter. Being able to rest for a while is enough, right?"
"Woo woo," yes.
"Come on, let's go to the thatched hut to see Lebao first, and then we'll give you a bath."
The general dragged his heavy body and followed behind his old master. He was full of curiosity about the young master.
In the shabby thatched hut, little Lebao was humming, his little face wrinkled like a bitter gourd, obviously feeling uncomfortable.
Lan Shiruo reached out to touch the sheets, and the sheets were almost wet. She picked up the little guy and gave him a kiss, "Lebao, do you also have water abilities like mommy? Otherwise, how could you be so wet?"
"Hmm" two subtle protests, it's not that wet, mom is bad.
Lan Shiruo smiled and couldn't help but give it another kiss. Jiang Xiang came over and wanted to kiss it too, but its head was too big and covered with hair, which made the little guy sneeze several times.
The generals and ministers were so frightened that they retreated outside the shabby hut with innocent looks on their faces. It had done nothing.
Lan Shiruo laughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes. "It's okay, General, don't worry. He's just too young. He'll be fine when he grows up."
The general tilted his head, looking confused, and still didn't understand.
Lan Shiruo shook her head and laughed. She would understand it eventually. The general was only one year old now and was still a child.
He let out the water, washed the little guy's butt, wrapped him in a clean sheet, fed him milk, and waited until he fell asleep, then went outside the shabby hut to wash the general.
If it weren't for Lan Shiruo's water ability, which was different from others', releasing water continuously, it would have been impossible to wash the general. At first, others seemed to only be able to release a small amount, and after half an hour, they could only release a small cup. If they wanted to release more, they had to upgrade. Hers was completely different. She didn't need to upgrade, and her water flowed continuously. Although she didn't know why, she was lucky.
After wetting the fur and wasting a large bottle of shampoo, Lan Shiruo slowly rubbed bubbles for her friend and said, "General, how about I shave your fur for you? Otherwise, it would be so troublesome to wash it every time after beating a rotten corpse."
"Woo woo, woof," the general bared his teeth in protest. He was a beautiful mastiff.
With fiery red hair, he is the brightest kid when he goes out, and he would never shave his hair.
Lan Shiruo pinched her friend's ear and said, "How are you going to find a partner in the future when you're so conceited? You're destined to be single."
I don’t know what a single dog is, but he can’t shave his hair anyway.
After taking a bath, the general shook gracefully, and Lan Shiruo stood beside him.
"Generals and ministers." Don't doubt it, he was definitely shouting with gritted teeth.
"Woo woo" Jiang Xiang covered his eyes with his two paws. He didn't mean it.
What else could Lan Shiruo do? She had to let the water go and clean herself up, changing into the only set of clothes she had left. She was in urgent need of food, clothing, shelter, transportation and other necessities.
"General, are you hungry?"
"Woo woo." I'm hungry. I've been hungry for a long time.
Lan Shiruo glanced at her watch. It was one o'clock in the morning. It had been exactly twenty-four hours since the acid rain began. The second day of the apocalypse had begun.
"Then cheer up, let's go out and find something to eat. There are not many people outside at this time. There are quite a few restaurants around the hospital. It's only been a day, there must be food. Let's go through each one and eat until we're full." There should also be quite a few pharmacies, maternity and baby stores, clothing stores, small supermarkets, etc., and while no one is reacting yet, the harvest will definitely be rich.
"Woof," hurry up, this Mastiff can't wait.
Lan Shiruo smiled, making sure that the little guy would not wake up, and appeared in the basement again with Jiang Xiang.
She felt much more at ease after taking the iron rod that her friend had scratched for her.
The doors of the warehouse all had passwords and keys. The man and the mastiff were too lazy to figure it out, and didn't understand why, so they just cut a hole to get in and out.
The driveway outside the gate is very quiet and empty. It is specially used for unloading goods for the hospital and other vehicles are not allowed to stop here, so there is nothing here.
The man and the mastiff ran forward quickly. The special unloading passage was not particularly long. It took only five minutes to reach the end and see the streets and alleys after the acid rain.
The former prosperity and splendor are gone, leaving only devastation. Whether on the ground or on the buildings, there are pits of various sizes. All the flowers, plants and trees are dead, and everything is charred.
There are only a few street lamps still on duty, and the neon lights on the shops provide some support from time to time. Countless rotting corpses are scattered sparsely in the streets and alleys. It won't be long before those who are rotting in their own houses will come out, and by then, the streets and alleys will be filled with corpses.
"Welcome to the end of the world." Lan Shiruo raised her arms and exclaimed softly, then took a deep breath. It was the breath of the end of the world. This was a familiar smell. Even after being a ghost for several years, she was surrounded by this smell, which was inexplicably familiar.
The generals and ministers tilted their heads to look at their old master. What does that mean?
Lan Shiruo smiled and stroked a handful of fur, "Let's go."
The generals and ministers ran away, and Lan Shiruo followed closely behind. When the corpses heard the noise and turned back, there was no trace of food, and they continued to wander around stiffly.
There was a small noodle shop nearby. There were still some unfinished noodles on the tables. The restaurant was empty and there was no one in the kitchen. Maybe they had escaped.
Lan Shiruo took a look and found a lot of noodle soups, all of which were made before the acid rain and were edible, so they were all taken away, including the pots, pans, and tables, chairs, and benches. There were also alcoholic beverages, flour, and dry noodles in the store, but it was a pity that the noodles were all scattered. There were also a lot of frozen meat and other things in the refrigerator. The power was not cut off, so they could all be used, so they were taken away along with the refrigerator.
Looking back, there was nothing left except four walls.
Lan Shiruo seems a little cruel and easily makes people jealous. Okay, be gentler next time.
"Let's go, there's a breakfast shop next door. I don't know if they have steamed buns or buns. If they do, I can have some first."
The general rushed out and dealt with the rotten corpse that was wandering in front of the breakfast shop, but found that the door was locked from the inside.
Looking back at the old master, "Woo woo," do you want to cut it open?
Lan Shiruo knocked on the door, but there was no sound. "The person inside should still be alive. Let's go to the next one."
