Thinking of this, Jiang Yan looked at him with interest:
"Why don't you speculate that the rainstorm will stop completely? Maybe by then, the official rescue will arrive. We go out to find supplies by ourselves. How can we get out in such deep water?"
Ye Qing seemed to know that she would ask this question. Without thinking, he said bluntly:
"In fact, every time an extreme disaster occurs, it is likely to cause secondary disasters or bring greater new disasters. The previous extreme high temperature and drought, and the current extreme rainstorm, let alone what new disasters will be brought.
Whenever the rain stops and the sun comes out or the rain soaks for a long time, there will be various human and animal corpses floating in the water. The viruses brought by these rotten corpses will be a disaster for us survivors.
Of course, I believe that the authorities will definitely come, but it is impossible for them to come at the first time. After all, their manpower and material resources are limited. Therefore, instead of waiting for the official to arrive, it is better for us to save ourselves first.
In this way, if we can wait for the official rescue, it will be better; if we can't wait, we will be more prepared. As for going out-"
Ye Qing paused, glanced at Su Dai, and then said: "Brother Tao and Sister Dai have kayaks."
"Yes, Jiang Yan, this is all thanks to you!" Su Dai said excitedly.
"?" Jiang Yan was confused.
"When I watched the live video of your underwater cave exploration, I was very excited, so I also went to learn diving, but I am only half a tank of water, and I can only reach the level of underwater sightseeing. At most, I have to come up when it is as shallow as three or four meters.
My husband had a foundation when he was in the army, and he was much better than me. Later, after the mask incident was over, it happened that outdoor camping was popular all over the country. I don't know why we suddenly got the urge to buy diving suits, life jackets, kayaks, etc. It can be regarded as a lucky coincidence."
Su Dai finished speaking, laughed, and then asked tentatively:
"So Jiang Yan, if the heavy rain really stops as Xiaoye said, if we go out to look for supplies, will it be convenient for you to go with us?"
In her opinion, Jiang Yan's family must have professional diving equipment, which is much better than her husband's.
If she helps, a few people will definitely be much better at searching for supplies than those who simply go to office buildings.
However, Su Dai did not think that Jiang Yan had a kayak or something like that.
If she had, she would not have asked Ye Qing how to get out of such a deep water.
On her side, she also had her husband and Ye Qing, two absolute laborers.
If the four of them could work together as a team and combine their strengths to complement each other, it would obviously be better than fighting alone.
But she was afraid that Jiang Yan would refuse, so she asked very subtly.
Jiang Yan listened to her quietly and smiled politely: "It's not very convenient."
After that, she said: "Thank you for sharing your information, but it's getting late, I have to go downstairs first."
Su Dai's originally excited eyes suddenly dimmed a little.
Ye Qing seemed to have guessed Jiang Yan's answer a long time ago, but the expression on his face did not change at all.
Su Dai wanted to persuade her, but the door of 3204 opened with a "creak", and Sun Jingtao walked out.
He looked at Jiang Yan and said,
"Jiang Yan, if you want to go downstairs, please be careful. The situation downstairs has been a bit complicated these two days. How about letting Xiao Ye go down with you?"
"No, I can do it by myself. Thank you for reminding me. Bye." Jiang Yan smiled and said, waved to a few people, turned around and went downstairs.
Ye Qing, who was standing aside, had already stepped out, but thought that she had a gun to protect herself, and she didn't seem to be very willing to let others go with her, so she quietly retreated.
"Hubby, wouldn't it be great if Jiang Yan went out with us? Although she has a gun and can use it to deal with bad guys, it is also a hard job to find supplies and bring them back. She is alone and weak, so it's better for her to go with us."
Su Dai was a little puzzled.
She actually had good intentions.
Sun Jingtao smiled, looked at his wife lovingly, and said,
"Don't worry, since she said it's inconvenient, it's inconvenient. If you're really worried about her, when we find the supplies, we can give her some."
"Oh, that's true." Su Dai felt that what her husband said made some sense, so she didn't bother about it.
Ye Qing, who was opposite, saw Jiang Yan disappear at the fire door, so he also bent down and picked up the gasoline barrel and went back to the house first.

On the other side, Jiang Yan just went down to the staircase on the 31st floor, and she smelled a strange, sour and smelly smell that made people vomit.
It was the smell of human excrement, urine and some rotten food mixed together, which had been fully fermented for many days.
Obviously, people living in the corridor regarded the walking stairwell as another form of toilet.
Because even if you want to throw feces into the water, you need a container.
In the early days, everyone could find plastic bags or paper.
Nowadays, plastic bags and paper are very good materials for making fire, and they may not be found.
She silently took out the backpack on her back to cover up, and actually took out a mask from the space and put it on, then took out a flashlight to shine it, and then walked down one step deep and one step shallow.
People living in the corridor obviously couldn't stand the smell, and closed the fire doors tightly. It
was pitch black in the walking stairs, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
And the further you go down, the greater the density of these temporary "bombs", and there are all kinds of colors.
She tried to avoid them all the way, and her speed of going down was obviously much slower.
Fortunately, she didn't meet anyone along the way.
The 16th floor arrived quickly.
To her surprise, after pushing open the fire door, she didn't see anyone sleeping on the floor in the corridor.
She only saw dense household garbage and walls blackened by fireworks, but at least there were no disgusting "bombs".
Perhaps because they saw that the water level outside was still rising, these "floating population" had already moved upstairs in advance.
The door of room 1604 was half-closed, so the owner should still be there.
The glass window at the end of the corridor was opened, and a little boy about ten years old was standing there, leaning on the window with his head bent and tiptoes, with one hand stretched out in the rain outside, and no one knew what
he was doing. His posture was actually very dangerous.
Although there were fewer thunderstorms in the past two days.
But rain, metal slides, etc., as long as lightning struck, any one of them could kill him.
Jiang Yan turned off the flashlight and deliberately coughed lightly.
The little boy heard the sound, frowned and turned around, but soon turned his head away with a wooden face.
The other party's face was sallow and dark, and he looked malnourished, with greasy hair and clothes.
Jiang Yan walked forward a few steps and asked curiously: "Little friend, what are you doing?"
"Shh!!"
This time, the little boy turned around again with some impatience and glared at her.
Jiang Yan frowned slightly, said nothing more, went to the window and looked out.
Only then did she realize that the little boy was holding a homemade fishing line in his hand, as if he was fishing for something in the water.
There was a small red balloon tied to the fishing line.
Raindrops as big as beans fell in the garbage-filled water, and the balloon rose and fell, and there was no telling what could be caught.
Jiang Yan took a glance and was about to look away, but she saw that on the wall below the window, not far above the water level, there were densely packed black mollusks as thick as calves.
Those mollusks moved very slowly and at a distance. If Jiang Yan's five senses had not been enhanced by the space, she would not have been able to spot them at all.
She looked carefully again, and all the hairs on her body instantly stood upside down.
Those black mollusks were obviously blood-sucking leeches that had been magnified hundreds of times. (End of this chapter)
