Five people walked along a street in ruins after the earthquake.

It rained overnight, and the sewers were damaged by the earthquake, and the streets were covered with silted rainwater, and many places looked like ponds or rivers. Out of fear of the unknown underwater situation, they choose to take a detour more often, and it is more acceptable to spend more time than safety.

"Li Hao, have you found it?" Not long after leaving, Lai Xi said to Li Hao: "There seem to be very few zombies around here. ”

Li Hao said without thinking about it: "There are few zombies, isn't it good?" ”

Laixi stopped, frowned and looked around, there really weren't many zombies in the ruins that could be seen everywhere on the streets after the earthquake. However, in the buildings and various buildings that have not collapsed, you can still see the original prosperity of the city. However, in addition to the potholes and stagnant water, there are lush plants growing everywhere.

The overly lush plants always made her feel cold.

Everything is too much, for a city, no matter how green, it is just an embellishment, and once the flourishing of plants exceeds the limit of greening, it is barren. And a deserted city, can it still be called a city?

At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and suddenly there was a sound of flapping wings in the sky, and this noisy sound soon came from afar like a flood.

Needless to say, Li Hao and the others immediately hid in the nearest house, to be precise, in a shop on the side of the road. The doors and windows of the shops were smashed, and they were used to seeing a mess inside, but they didn't care so much, and it was good to find such a place to hide in time.

Almost as soon as they entered the shop, they saw a flock of crows flapping their wings and making a hoarse and penetrating cry flying low, not knowing whether they were hunting or migrating.

The crows were so large that they disappeared from the sky above them for half an hour. The kind of visual effect that came from all over the world and covered out the sunlight as soon as it came, as if the night suddenly came in violation of the logic of time, made Li Hao and them speechless for a long time after the crows disappeared.

"It's ...... What's going on? After a long time, Li Hao finally made a sound, but his voice was inexplicably trembling. Then he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked Zhao Ji: "In your city, there is still a habitat for crows?" ”

"What do you think?" Zhao Ji's face was also pale, and he said: "This is the largest and most prosperous modern city in the country, not to mention crows, before the disaster broke out, unless it was a botanical garden, even birds were rarely seen." ”

This is the city where she grew up, and she loves this city very much, but to be honest, from childhood to adulthood, she has not complained about the ecological environment of this city. Although the ecological environment of this city has been improved a lot in recent years, it is not a city with many people, many cars and high energy consumption.

Li Hao turned his head again and asked Liszt: "Do you remember when this disaster broke out?" ”

Liszt pushed his glasses and said, "I do have a detailed record...... It has been 119 days since the first case of infection appeared in the city's news report. But if you look at the reports on a global scale, it has been 152 days since the first case of infection appeared. In the past, when the Internet was not broken, some people called the day when the case appeared 152 days ago as Judgment Day, believing that it was the beginning of natural retribution for humanity. I am not religious, and I do not subscribe to the worldview of the Last Judgment, but I say to my students that if humanity disappears forever, that day will leave a crucial page in the history of mankind, and if humanity is lucky enough to survive this catastrophe, that day will also leave a crucial page in the history of mankind. ”

Li Hao looked at a middle school teacher who pushed his glasses from time to time and asked, "If the human race is extinct, who will record history?" What is the meaning of history? ”

Liszt said calmly: "Two different things, the dinosaurs are extinct, can't we also read about the history of dinosaurs?" Just put it in that part of the history of the earth, even if it is human civilization, doesn't there also a prehistory? Even if humanity becomes extinct, new intelligent beings will appear on the earth, new civilizations will appear, and this interrupted history of mankind will be discovered and interpreted by later civilizations. ”

Li Hao felt a little big, and asked: "Do you think it makes sense to record history in the last days?" Don't forget, you yourself could die at any moment. ”

Liszt said firmly: "Because of this, it is more meaningful and important to record history." ”

"You're a history teacher?"

"No, I'm a math teacher."

“……”

"Li Hao, don't you think you're off topic?" The conversation between Li Hao and Liszt made the others impatient, and they said, "Shouldn't you ask the time when the disaster broke out to estimate whether it is normal for these overly lush plants and this group of crows to appear?" ”

"Do you still need to extrapolate this?" Li Hao said: "It must be abnormal!" This catastrophe has been abnormal since the first outbreak, okay! The virus has spread and mutated, so humans have become zombies, plants are growing wildly, animals are mutating in various ways, and I can safely say that whatever we encounter in the future that would have been incredible before, it will now seem like normal! No matter what is not normal in our hands, it will become normal! Then he pointed at Liszt, put his face in front of him, and said in an almost roaring voice: "Then he will record in his notebook when the extinction of mankind began!" ”

"What are you angry about?" Zhao Ji looked at Laixi and was a little stunned under Li Hao's roar, so he stood in front of her and glared at Li Hao viciously.

Li Hao also glared at Zhao Ji, his face flushed, and the green tendons on his neck were exposed, but under Zhao Ji's unyielding gaze, he gradually regained his composure, walked out of the shop, looked back at Liszt, and asked, "You can survive because there are fewer zombies around here?" ”

Liszt shook his head and said, "No! Before, there were many, very many. If I hadn't come out with you, I wouldn't have known that there were so few zombies out there. Could it be an earthquake that buried them all in the ground? ”

Li Hao only felt an indescribable shadow pass through his heart, sighed, and said, "Let's go, my intuition tells me that the script has changed again." ”

…………………………

"Awake?"

When he opened his eyes, he heard a soft voice ringing in his ears with a hint of pleasant emotion. This voice is a little familiar, a little unfamiliar, and I say familiar because the owner of this voice has been with his bedside for the past few days, and I say that it is strange because he has known the owner of this voice for really not a long time.

It's not been a month, right?

Of course, for some people, children can be conceived at this time. But for those who have been there, this should still be in the stage of getting acquainted with each other, and the next step should be to go on an occasional date, take a walk, or go to a museum together, meet by chance in the library, leave each other's phone calls, and send each other messages infrequently...... When everyone becomes more and more natural in this period, it is the real meaning of dating, going to the movies, going to concerts, and talking on the phone often...... Then, go on a trip together to see the beautiful sea and the pure snow-capped mountains......

All in all, it won't be like now, they don't know each other very well, they already live under the same roof, and they declare that they are already a couple, and even have crossed the biological boundary and become a de facto husband and wife...... For this, he has always regretted it, he constantly condemned himself in his heart, and the pace was too fast, which made him feel sorry for other girls.

But wait......

I came here and suddenly came back to my senses, what were I thinking? Do you think this is in the normal life of the past, in his ideal love rhythm? This is the end of the world! A lot of people are dead, a lot of people are dead and still alive, and it is said that less than 10% of those who survived, and this girl gave everything to him so quickly, wasn't it because his current status could give her plenty of food and a stable place to live, and he didn't feel that he had given her what she needed, so he had to accept her as a matter of course?

No, this time the injuries were on the sternum and ribs, why did he feel like his brain was a little messed up? Even if the treatment plan is not right, I have never heard of the treatment of bone injuries that can lead to mental confusion.

Also, all he saw when he opened his eyes was the light, there seemed to be no window in the ward, a bit of an old-fashioned ventilation fan was turning unhurriedly, the air was not too bad, but it was definitely not pleasant. The light was white, and the whole room was white, and even the originally energetic face in front of me was miserable and white, which was a bad feeling.

"Are you having nightmares again?" Liang Qin looked a little tired, sleeping on the edge of the bed made her physical strength not recover enough, but she still smiled, took a wet towel placed in the basin next to her, wrung it out, and wiped the sweat off her forehead.

"Where is this?" This question has made me frightened for a while, could it be that I have lost my memory? But after he asked this question, he immediately remembered that it was in the ward of the underground refuge center of the Xiaoqianshan base.

He had been treated in a hospital room on the ground, and the search operation he personally commanded had achieved very important results, but in view of his own injuries, the head of the research department, Major General Lee Eun-hye, told him that he did not need to participate in the next research work for the time being.

Subsequently, an extremely strong earthquake erupted, and the Xiaoqianshan base was affected. Even though the base was built by the military decades ago to defend against nuclear war, it is still in tatters in the face of the power of nature.

However, the reason for the transfer from the above-ground wards to the underground was not because of the earthquake!
