Chapter 149 Let’s Move to the Base
The luckier survivors found shelter from the wind and rain in dilapidated houses or abandoned vehicles, but the acid rain showed no mercy to them.
Acid rain corroded the roof and body of the car, leaving only the windows and body. As a result, the windows and body were corroded and fell apart. It was also dangerous for the survivors in the car to stay in the car or run out of the car. As a result, they finally merged with the earth.
Those who hid in the dilapidated houses were slightly better off and were not killed. The acid rain corroded the walls, constantly passing through the broken walls into the houses and sprinkled on the survivors. They screamed miserably from the burning. Others heard the screams and went to check, but were caught by the acid rain and their skin was also burned.
"Save me, I don't want to die!"
"Everyone, get out of the way! Don't get caught in the acid rain! This acid rain is different from the acid rain we've encountered before. Previous acid rain can cause cancer, damage skin and mucous membranes, induce asthma and other respiratory diseases and cancer, reduce immunity, and damage soil and water resources. But this acid rain will directly kill us!"
But the acid rain was getting heavier and heavier, with no sign of stopping. No matter how strong the walls were, they began to peel off and became bumpy.
Looking at the acid rain pouring down like crazy, the survivors who were lucky enough not to die in the acid rain complained bitterly. It was already difficult to live in the apocalypse, why did it have to rain acid?
Lu Xingtang sighed: "Hangzhou will definitely suffer heavy losses from this acid rain! If the base is not damaged, the survivors in Hangzhou will all go to the base to seek shelter!" This is inevitable!
"I guess Su Cheng has already thought about this problem." Ji Yanmo said.
Indeed, Su Cheng had already considered the survivors outside the base.
The base must be accepting survivors from outside. They had already started the building project while making tempered glass and protective clothing.
The base's poor quarters consisted of six phases of housing, with three phases of expansion. Each was 10 square meters, with a kitchen and bathroom, furnished only with a wooden bed and a table. While small, they could probably accommodate the survivors seeking refuge at the base if they squeezed in.
On the first day of the acid rain, Hangzhou suffered heavy losses. All the survivors who did not find shelter died in the acid rain.
The survivors who came to Hangzhou from other places to seek shelter at the base were all corroded by acid rain.
Every house in Hangzhou was riddled with holes and pits from the acid rain. Acid rain had seeped into underground parking lots, supermarkets, and subways, burning and corroding the survivors who had hidden there. Only a small number of people survived, but as soon as they left the underground, they were corroded by the acid rain.
On the second day after the acid rain, the survivors hiding in the ruined houses were in trouble. They could squeeze together, but the acid rain kept corroding the walls and could not even stop the acid rain from coming in through the cracked walls. Many people died from the acid rain.
The base is still fine, and under the protection of tempered glass, the base is intact.
Lu Xingtang and his family's little bunker home was immune to the merciless beatings of the acid rain.
Ji Yanmo and Lu Xingtang wore protective clothing to observe the mountain they were on. The mountain and the platform were all pitted and corroded by acid rain. The nearby mountains became bare. The acid rain water poured down from the top of the mountain, and the plants, soil and rocks below the mountain were corroded until only a layer of powder remained.
Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo looked around and returned home, taking off their protective suits: "Amo, we may really have to move to the base!" Thinking of the bunker that was built with great difficulty, but had to be moved because of acid rain, she still liked it here. No one would disturb her, and she didn't have to worry about their secret being exposed.
Ji Yanmo hugged Lu Xingtang, "As long as we're together, it doesn't matter if it's a little bit hard! We're already much better off than the other survivors." At least, they have space, and that space has supplies and a way out! Others, there's no way out.
On the third day of the acid rain, people hiding in the dilapidated houses had begun to move to houses that had not been completely corroded by the acid rain and squeezed together with a group of people.
Many damaged houses collapsed due to the corrosion of acid rain, taking away many people.
Lu Xingtang's family and the base were still safe and sound, but the survivors could hardly move forward and had no way of seeking shelter at the base. Once they took a step, the acid rain would corrode their bodies, so everyone stayed away and waited for the acid rain to stop before going to the base.
On the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh days of acid rain, except for the Hope Base and Lu Xingtang's home, which were safe and sound, the entire city of Hangzhou was almost gone.
Around 1 a.m. on the eighth day, the acid rain stopped.
Around eight o'clock in the morning, the sun came out.
As soon as the sun came out, everyone went out of the building to see, but the ground was covered with acid rain, so even if they wanted to leave, they couldn't.
Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo put on protective clothing and came out to check the situation at Qing'an Peak, and also went to check the situation at the base.
The Qing'an Peak is severely corroded and the green plants have completely disappeared.
The mountain was corroded like a pillar. They did not feel safe living on the top of the mountain, as if the mountain would collapse at any moment and they would fall into the abyss.
Even the platform was corroded, and the ground was much lower. They took out a telescope and observed the Hope Base from the potholes on the platform. They didn't see any corrosion on the walls caused by corrosion of the tempered glass, but they did see many people in protective suits walking around the base, very busy.
The two men breathed a sigh of relief and began to clean up the corroded debris and dust near their house. After a quick cleanup, their faces looked unhappy.
"Wife, let's move to the base!" Qing'an Peak is too unsafe. There is a thick fog behind it, which is also corrosive. If they continue to live there, they will be taken away by the thick fog if not the acid rain.
At the base, Su Cheng had already arranged a house for them, a small western-style building with tempered glass installed. Their tempered glass had not been corroded by acid rain, so the tempered glass at the base was also not affected, so they were not afraid of the arrival of thick fog.
"Okay! Move!" Lu Xingtang was helpless. If he had known that the acid rain was so severe, he would not have exchanged supplies for tempered glass with Su Cheng and would have lived directly in the base.
So they simply washed the tempered glass with clean water, removed the tempered glass, and put it into the space. Then they put all the furniture, cattle, sheep, and horses in the house into the space, and also put away the pond they had dug.
When Lu Xingtang saw the cabin, she felt reluctant to part with it. It was something she and Ji Yanmo had built with great effort. It would be a shame to just throw it away.
"See if we can store the house and its foundation in the space!" Ji Yanmo reminded. "If we can, we can leave the protection of the base and find a remote place where we won't be easily discovered. We can take out the wooden house and continue living there!"
Lu Xingtang's eyes lit up, and he immediately gestured at the size of the space villa courtyard. It was enough to take away their wooden house, so he focused his attention and put his hand on the wooden house: "Take it!"
The wooden house and foundation were securely stored in the space and placed securely in the courtyard of the space villa.
