Chapter 8: Zombie Dad 8
Zheng Dalong finally realized the seriousness of the problem in the worry of his grandparents, at first he heard his grandmother say that people eat people, and he only regarded it as a rumor, but now that adults are so nervous, I am afraid that most of the rumors are true.
After arriving home, Zheng Dalong said carefully: "Grandpa, can I call Dad?" ”
Since the education system introduced a rule 50 years ago that primary and secondary school students should not carry mobile phones with them during school, otherwise it will affect the physical and mental health of children, citizens have consciously complied with them, so that although mobile phones are cheap now, he as a primary school student does not.
"Don't make a futile effort, your dad made a phone call in the morning, and after a few words, the line was disconnected, and then it couldn't get through at all, I heard that now the inter-provincial phone calls can't get through, and it is estimated that in two days, all the phones will be disconnected." Grandpa Zheng's brows tightened more and more.
"All the grain in the grain store in the town has been sold out, and the ham, biscuits, mineral water, etc. in the commissary have also been robbed, alas! Now we're going to have to save a little bit of food. Grandma Zheng sighed.
"Your dad asked me to stock up on more food and water, and I've asked your grandmother to fill the cistern, which should be enough to eat for two or three months, and maybe everything will be back to normal by then." Grandpa Zheng said that there is no point in hiding it from his grandson now.
"In the event of a catastrophe, in addition to food and water, we also have to stock up on medicines, solar-powered emergency lights, flashlights, and weapons." Zheng Qianhong, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
"Yes, yes, my sister is right, I also have these in the disaster game I played before." Zheng Dalong hurriedly agreed.
"I'll go to the town again, shopkeeper, you go to the grocery store in the village to see, what to buy, don't be afraid to buy more, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy it." Grandpa Zheng said eagerly.
"Okay, Dalong, you take your sister to stay at home, don't run around!" Grandma Zheng admonished and went out with Grandpa Zheng.
"Sister, what can we do to help grandparents now?" Zheng Dalong looked around and said with a blank expression, he was just an eight-year-old child, and his life had been peaceful and quiet since he was born, and he was really at a loss in the face of sudden catastrophe.
"Well, I think about it, yes! Apple! We went to pick all the apples from the tree and store them for nourishment and hydration. Zheng Qianhong said that she felt that after picking all the apples, she did not have to feel guilty about breaking the apple trees herself.
"Or sister, you're smart, let's go!" Zheng Dalong's eyes immediately lit up and he had a goal.
Although Zheng Dalong is a little fat man, his level of tree climbing is quite high, which is also the result of years of naughtiness.
"Sister, you just stay down, and my brother will give you food when he picks a red apple!" Zheng Dalong carried the plastic basket on his back and turned his head to admonish as he climbed up.
The next second, he froze, and his sister was gone!
"Sister, sister, where are you?" He shouted.
"I'm here!" On the treetops of a nearby tree, Zheng Qianhong's little head came out of the leaves.
"Sister, sister, sister, it's too dangerous there! You, you, stay there and don't move, I'll pick you up. Zheng Dalong stammered.
Subconsciously, Zheng Qianhong felt that such a height was not a threat to her at all, so not only did she not feel afraid, but instead played with a branch, Zheng Dalong's heart was so nervous that it was about to explode.
At this moment, a light wind blew, and the branch that Zheng Qianhong was holding was originally injured, but only heard a "click" breaking sound, and the branch was broken.
The little girl's body began to fall freely, and instead of screaming, she laughed "giggle", as if she thought it was funny.
"Sister!" Zheng Dalong's eyes were about to split, and he screamed miserably.
