Chapter 260: The Great Storm (5) -- Settle
The water is not as fast as it was before. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info so Zhao Teng and they can also stabilize their bodies in the water, so that they will not be completely carried away by the current.
After swimming forward for more than two hours, it was completely dark. Along the way, the gray buildings were soaked in the yellowing floodwaters, and countless debris floated on the surface of the water, moving down the river. If you don't avoid it in time, it is easy to be injured by mistake.
The seagulls on the horizon also flew over their heads contentedly after they had eaten and drunk. It may be that the flood has washed away their homes, and now they are looking for a new home.
The dazzling stars also fill the sky, making it even more charming as the night deepens. Bursts of cold glow poured down, reflecting the water surface as clear as promised.
However, Zhao Teng and the others didn't have time to enjoy the first night after the rainstorm. Because after calling Zhang Xiaojun's name for a long time, there was no response except for the sporadic collision sound of the splash.
His voice was so hoarse that he couldn't make a sound, and he felt a dull pain. So Zhao Teng stopped shouting, looked blankly at the flood waves, rolling westward, and couldn't help but feel a little disheartened. Zhang Xiaoqiang realized something, and his face darkened.
At this time, the light was very dim and hazy, turning buildings into ancient beasts crawling in the water. It seems that inadvertently, it will engulf people.
And although it is the rainy season, it is summer in the southern hemisphere. The climate in Mingjing has never been cold. But if you soak in cold water for a long time, you will freeze. What's more, it rained heavily for several days in Mingjing, and the temperature was seven or eight degrees lower than usual.
It's not daylight again, and the temperature is dropping again. Zhao Teng soaked in the water for so long, his lips were bruised, his face was pale, and his body trembled terribly.
It's a physical warning that they're reaching their limit.
Feeling unwell, Zhao Teng suggested in a depressed tone: "It's dark!" Let's find a place to stay! ”。 At the moment, the lights are dark, and I can't see the surrounding environment clearly, and I can't figure out the surrounding conditions. Even if you have the heart to find someone, you don't have that condition. And, most likely, lost yourself into it.
Wang Xiaoqiang was also a little exhausted, so he answered. Follow Zhao Teng and swim to the nearest three-story house. Originally, the houses below four floors were soaked in water. However, because the water level has dropped below two meters, most of the buildings that have been immersed in the water are exposed to the water.
When they got closer, they found a huge billboard on the house with the words 'GF Supermarket'. This is a private supermarket, and the store was originally a Chinese doing business in Nanyang, and it mixed well. After coming to Daming, with Daming's relevant support policies for business, modern management experience, and advanced business models, he opened a supermarket in a good way.
Because it started earlier, there was little competition. And honest management, hospitality. Therefore, this 'Guangfa supermarket' has developed very quickly, and there are branches in all districts of Mingjing. It's also because I often look at it, so it's familiar to my eyes.
Even in the dark environment, Zhao Teng and the others still vaguely recognized it by the cold moonlight.
It was also the supermarket that was completely flooded, so when the typhoon came, the billboards were not swept away by the wind. And the building materials used are also relatively strong, so that they can stand tall under the impact of floods. However, the walls were covered with sludge, and the thrilling scene of the flood at that time was recorded without reservation.
It's just that the first floor was completely flooded, so Zhao Teng and the others could only climb to the second floor from the outer wall. But they tried several times, but they didn't climb the ledge on the second floor. It's not that they're useless, it's that the mud on the walls is very slippery. People on it can't find a focus at all.
Wang Xiaoqiang was very anxious. gave up climbing and swam to Zhao Teng's side. Supporting Zhao Teng's body with his hands, he tried his best to push it to the windowsill. After several efforts, Zhao Teng stepped on Wang Xiaoqiang's head and successfully climbed onto the windowsill.
Taking a deep breath, he couldn't take a break. He leaned out and stretched out his arms. Let Wang Xiaoqiang take his hand and climb up.
Spit a few mouthfuls of dirty water and wipe his face. Wang Xiaoqiang took Zhao Teng's arm and climbed onto the windowsill with both hands and feet. Now, I finally left the dirty water.
The two of them were also tired, and they didn't care about the mud under the windowsill. Lying on all fours, he fell to the ground, kicking heavily.
The starlight was so gentle and quiet, following their footsteps, slanting in, reflecting on their slightly thin but small muscular bodies, like a thin quilt that shimmered with fluorescency.
Their faces were covered with starlight, shrouded in darkness, as if covered with a cloud of gloom that could not be dissolved.
At this moment, they don't have any sense of happiness for the rest of their lives! Because the missing Wang Xiaojun is a boulder pressing on their hearts. As long as they don't find it, no one will be happy.
It took about a stick of incense for the two to regain some strength. Quickly support your body and strip your clothes naked. After all, the soaked clothes were cold, and under the blowing of the sea breeze, it gave people goosebumps.
Anyway, both of them are men, and their relationship is also close. It's not like I haven't seen each other's naked bodies, and there's nothing to be shy about. And now there is no one else, so I take off my underwear together. Bare-eyed, bare-eyed, starlight, search for ignition tools in the store.
Many shelves were washed away by the flood and dumped to the ground indiscriminately. A lot of sewage that was not discharged was mixed with sludge and debris and piled up in the room. They are one foot deep and one foot shallow, and they move forward with difficulty.
Because of Zhang Xiaojun's incident, they were very disappointed in their hearts, so they didn't have much to say.
But then, the sound of a scream suddenly came from the room, breaking the deathly silence. If you listen closely, it looks like the sound of a rat eating.
Since the layout of this 'Guangfa Supermarket' is the same as other branches, the first floor is basically daily necessities, snacks and non-staple food. The second floor is dominated by clothing and accessories, but there is a small amount of non-staple food. The third floor is the storage room, where the goods are stored.
So it's normal to have rats on the second floor. After all, rats are also hungry and will naturally come out to forage for food. And rats have always been fatal, and it is not surprising that they have not drowned in water.
Zhao Teng and Wang Xiaoqiang didn't feel anything, so they let the sound get louder and louder.
But unexpectedly, the rat didn't seem to be aware of Zhao Teng's existence at all. The movement of eating is surprisingly loud, and the sound is like grinding teeth, which makes people panic.
Zhao Teng and the others wanted to pretend not to care, but listening to this sound, they really couldn't pretend anymore. He coughed a few times. Now, the rats seemed to sense their presence, and all movement stopped. The silence of the room was as dead as death.
But within a few seconds, the rat was making a fuss again. It's like a glass bottle rubbing against the ground, which makes people listen to it, annoying and annoying. (To be continued.) )
