Chapter 177 There are Neighbors
If in the past, if Nan Ci suddenly saw such a giant dog running towards him, he would definitely be nervous and wonder whether this person was an enemy or a friend.
But now, looking at the giant dog running wildly, Nan Ci just hoped that it could run faster and more steadily.
It would be best to get here quickly and not be buried in the blizzard.
Before and at the beginning of the apocalypse, Nan Ci was also a homebody, and he liked staying at home alone with his cats.
But at those times, Nan Ci knew clearly that there were many people outside her home.
Although she was alone at home, there were living people around her.
But now, Nan Ci was forced to stay in this building, and she was the only living person in the entire building.
Standing by the window and looking out, all I see is white.
After a long time, Nan Ci herself was not sure whether there were any other living creatures besides her and the four cats.
Now seeing this huge black dog, Nan Ci only felt the joy of life.
As for whether the other party is an enemy or a friend, it doesn’t matter to Nan Ci at all at this moment.
Nan Ci waited for nearly an hour, and was worried about the huge black dog. Finally, he saw it come to him, shrink its body, and then enter the building.
Seeing this, Nan Ci pulled the curtains, stopped looking, and had no intention of opening the door.
It is enough to know that they came in alive. Nan Ci doesn’t want to go out and say hello to them.
What Nan Ci didn't expect was that although she didn't take the initiative to go out and say hello, more than ten minutes later, there was a knock on her door.
Nan Ci had been alone for too long, and when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, he felt a little uncomfortable and his heart tightened.
Nan Ci stood up and slowly moved to the door without making any sound.
After a while of silence outside, there was a knock on the door again.
This time, it was accompanied by an extremely hoarse voice.
"Hello, can I borrow a light? I can't find my lighter."
Nan Ci, "."
What do you need the fire for?
Do you smoke?
"The weather is very cold. I brought firewood, but now I have no tools to start a fire. If possible, please lend me a fire."
The voice outside the door sounded again, this time explaining in a little more detail than last time.
After hesitating for a while, Nan Ci opened the door fully armed.
It’s not that I’m out of sympathy, nor am I trying to be a saint.
I just don't want to lose this hard-earned neighbor.
It’s unclear when the wind and snow outside will stop. If this neighbor dies, it’s unknown when a new neighbor will appear. A lighter is worth nothing to Nan Ci, so he just gives it away if he can.
While opening the door with one hand, Nan Ci held a loaded gun in his other hand.
As long as the other party made any other moves, Nan Ci wouldn't mind shooting him.
At the same time, four cats were also at Nan Ci's feet, four pairs of eyes all wide open, staring outside without blinking.
Nan Ci believed that as long as the people outside had any inappropriate thoughts, the four cats would stretch out their claws at the same time and scratch the other party to pieces.
But when he opened the door, there was no one there.
Nan Ci looked up and saw a man and a dog standing two meters away.
When the black dog grew to a gigantic size, it looked mighty and ferocious, but now it is not much bigger than a dumpling, and its body is shiny black and curly.
Nan Ci didn’t know much about dog breeds and wasn’t sure whether it was a Teddy or a Bichon Frise.
But it looks cute.
When Nan Ci was staring at the black dog, it was also looking at Nan Ci with its pair of bright black eyes. The eyes were very bright and full of spirit.
Next to the black dog stood a man who was wrapped very tightly.
After staring at the man and the dog for a while, Nan Ci threw the lighter in his hand at the man.
The man caught the lighter with both hands, his eyes full of surprise.
"Thank you! Thank you so much."
His voice was unusually hoarse, and you could tell at once that he was thirsty for a long time and was dehydrated.
Although he understood this, Nan Ci had no intention of giving him water.
Since this person said he brought firewood, I guess he also brought other things.
There's nothing much outside right now, just a lot of snow.
As long as there is fire and a container, it is easy to get water.
The man did not try to beat the snake into a fight. After thanking him repeatedly, he led his black dog into another room.
Seeing this, Nan Ci also took the four cats back to the room and closed the door.
In just a short while, Nan Ci's hands and feet were chilled by the cold wind, and the exposed skin was cold and hard.
Nan Ci became like this after only staying outside for a short while. It’s unknown how long the man and the black dog had been outside. It’s amazing that they could arrive here alive!
Nan Ci was a little curious about where the man came from and why he came here.
However, Nan Ci only thought about these two questions in his mind and did not really take any action.
She is not in a hurry.
Judging from the man's current condition, he won't be able to leave in a short time.
If you want to know these situations, there are plenty of opportunities.
The facts were similar to what Nan Ci had guessed. In the next few days, Nan Ci would pay special attention to the movements outside and would look outside.
Occasionally, you can hear the sound of running outside, but it is not from people, but from the black dog doing parkour.
After having a neighbor, Nan Ci felt that his condition was much more stable.
Even though the two people had no interaction other than the time when they borrowed the lighter, and had never met or talked to each other, the feeling of knowing that there was a living person outside was completely different.
Nan Ci's mentality improved, but the four cats became obviously anxious.
They are not very happy when they are playing in the sun in the space.
After coming out of the space, I was still unhappy.
From time to time, I would walk around the door or stare at the closed door.
Nan Ci was not stupid. After watching them like this all day, he quickly guessed what they meant.
It's obvious that he wants to go out!
Because there was a black dog doing parkour outside all day long, which lured them to go out.
In other words, they wanted to go out and compete with the black dog outside.
After understanding the four cats' thoughts, Nan Ci felt even more conflicted.
However, this dilemma did not last long.
Nan Ci has absolute confidence in both himself and the four cats.
There would be no danger even if the four cats were allowed to go out for a walk.
Since there is no danger, why keep them locked up in the room all the time?
After figuring it out, Nan Ci no longer hesitated and got up and opened the door.
