Chapter 17: Calm in the Midst of Panic
After returning home and moving things back to the house from the car, he began to clean up the third floor for Wang Jun and his wife.
There is a lot of power in numbers, except for Lili, all of us are in a hurry to clean up the house, change the sheets, mop the floor, clean the kitchen, etc... In half an hour, the third floor, which had originally fallen a layer of ash, finally took on a new look.
They were also given some mineral water and biscuits and beef jerky.
Before going upstairs, Rong Rong, who knew that he was going to have a big meal in the evening, warmly greeted the two of them and remembered to come for dinner.
The things that were brought back this time filled the kitchen again, and the living room was everyone's daily living place, so it was inconvenient to put too many things, and the rest were all piled up in the bedroom where I lived alone.
Looking at the full house, I feel extremely satisfied, and I don't have to worry about eating and drinking for a few months.
If you are in a good mood, you don't feel tired, and as soon as you pile up your things, take a shower and change into clean clothes, you start preparing dinner.
Washing rice, cooking rice, stewing meat, busy and happy.
Rong Rong, Shen Xue, Mei Jing, Yang Yang, and several people took turns to come to the kitchen to drool at the pot.
After the meal was ready, Rong Rong immediately went to the third floor to call Wang Jun and his wife to eat.
The staircase leading from the first floor to the second floor was blocked by the lock sky and Shen Feng, and the furniture on the second floor was tightly blocked, and there was no need to go out for a period of time in the future anyway, so we simply opened the door so that Lili and them could come up and visit the door.
Suddenly, there were two more people, I just felt very lively, Rong Rong, this little ghost is crazy, after knowing that Lili has a baby in her belly, Lili's eyes have changed, and she has been following Lili like a fart all night.
From time to time, when he seized the opportunity, he stretched out a little finger and gently touched Lili's belly.
While eating, my eyes kept peeking at each other, and I almost didn't shove the rice in the spoon into my nostrils.
After the meal was finally finished, Shen Xue and Yang Yang took the initiative to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
I boiled a pot of pure water, found a large pot of tea I bought before, and made a cup of tea for everyone, and a group of people sat in the living room, drinking tea and chatting, very timid.
Because the lights can't be turned on at night, so dinner is relatively early, everyone is very energetic, Lili and Wang Jun are very good at talking, and they also love to joke, a group of people talk and laugh, and time flies quickly.
It was getting dark, and after watching TV without any special news, I got up and went back to my room to rest.
As soon as the lock sky left, Meijing also returned to the room.
Rong Rong was still very interested in Lili's belly, and asked from time to time: "Auntie, is it hot for my brother to live here?" ”
Wang Jun glanced at Lili, who was talking to Rong Rong in a low voice, and turned to me with a worried face, "Sister Chen, will we stay here like this in the future?" ”
I was stunned, looked at Wang Jun strangely, and said: "Of course, there is food and accommodation here, and the number of walking corpses outside has decreased so much, so blessed with such unique conditions, of course you have to stay here, what?" Do you want to go to the shelter that the news says? ”
Wang Jun hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, I didn't mean that." The fact that you've been here for so long proves that getting to the shelter is certainly not that easy. ”
I nodded, this Wang Jun is quite smart.
"And what do you mean?"
Wang Jun hesitated, got up and motioned for me to go to the balcony. It seems that there is something that can't be said to Lili.
"What's wrong?" Closing the glass door on the balcony, I asked, turning my head.
"Sister Chen..."Wang Jun frowned, kept rubbing his hands, lowered his head and thought for a while, before continuing: "You also know Lili's situation, she has been pregnant for more than three months, and she will be in six or seven months at most..."
"Are you worried about Lili having a baby when the time comes?" I asked.
"Yes... I'm just worried about this... Lili didn't say it, and I knew that she must be scared. ”
"Brother Wang, don't worry about it first, after all, there is still half a year, during this time, maybe the current situation will change, social order will be restored, the army is still there, TV signals, electricity, are still working, which shows that things are not as bad as we think."
To be honest, these words are almost the same as comforting Brother Wang, I don't believe it at all, how bad the situation is outside, the huge number of walking corpses that surrounded the door of the house before, has clearly told me.
"I hope..."Brother Wang was still a little worried: "I know almost nothing about the current situation now, you know better, except for asking you, I really don't know what to do." ”
"Okay, the worst plan, there are several middle-aged aunts living in the next building, they are all experienced people, and it shouldn't be a big deal to invite them when the time comes."
Brother Wang nodded and said gratefully: "Sister Chen, if it weren't for you, I would have to die alone." ”
"Brother Wang, if you say that, you'll be outside."
Back in the living room, Wang Jun took Lili back to the third floor to rest.
Shen Xue also went back to the room, and Yang Yang played playing cards with Rong Rong on the sofa with a flashlight.
After closing the security door and telling the two of them not to make a big noise, I went back to my room.
During this time, we have all gotten used to sleeping when it gets dark.
Probably because the female walking corpse stimulated my brain too strongly during the day, it was fine when I was awake, but not when I fell asleep.
I had almost a whole night of dreams, a lot of messes, and one after another I could catch up with the serials.
By the time I struggled to wake up from my dream, it was already dawn and the sound of walking and talking came from the living room.
I lay on the bed and looked out the window, the curtains were not tightened, and the sunlight was pouring into the room.
I carefully recalled what happened in the dream just now, but I found that I couldn't remember it at all, and the moment I opened my eyes, I still felt very real, and I forgot it so completely after a few seconds.
After lying down for a while, I finally gave up thinking about those dreams, and I couldn't remember them.
I know by feeling that it's definitely not a good dream, and it also affects my mood when I think about it.
Walk into the living room.
Rong Rong was wearing a cotton skirt that he had just changed, and he was so happy that he didn't know why he was spinning in circles in the living room.
Shen Xue and Mei Jing giggled as she amused them.
Shen Feng and Yang Yang should be making breakfast in the kitchen.
Lock Tian sat on the sofa and watched the news on the TV intently.
The expression was as serious as the news.
grabbed his hair, went to the bathroom to wash, and when he returned to the living room, Rong Rong was crooked on the sofa, screaming heavily, looking like he was dizzy.
I couldn't help but laugh, and walked over to her little ass and slapped her, "Little madman, look at your sweat." ”
"Auntie, I'm not a little madman...", dissatisfied with the title I gave, Rong Rong squeezed his eyes and defended.
"You're a little madman." Shen Xue stepped forward, and after tidying up her crooked clothes, she asked her with a smile: "After dinner, let's go and play with Aunt Lili, okay?" ”
"Okay~."
"I'll go with me too, and see if they're used to living habits." Sitting on the couch, I stretched comfortably.
Refreshed, I used to get up early before, but before going to bed at night, I watched TV, went shopping on Taobao, and looked at the post bar, otherwise I watched a movie with Yangyang, and I always went to bed very late every time.
As a result of lack of sleep, half of the day is drifting, and both feet feel like they can't touch the ground.
Now that there is no Taobao, post it, movies, I can only go to bed early at night, and my mental state is much better than before.
I don't know if it's an illusion, I even feel like I'm a little fatter.
After eating breakfast and putting away the dishes and chopsticks, he pulled Rong Rong and the group came to the third floor.
Rong Rong looked back from time to time, and I asked her what she was looking at.
As a result, the little guy pouted and was unhappy: "Why doesn't Suotian come with us?" ”
Shen Xue was smiling at her head with a brain meltdown, "Little brat! How do you speak, do you know how to respect your elders? Owe me to look at you. ”
Rong Rong rubbed his head and argued unconvinced: "It's the lock sky!" It's the lock sky! Just shout lock the sky and call it lock the sky!! ”
When Shen Xue heard this, this was worth it! Roll up your sleeves and clean her up.
Just as he was about to stretch out his hand to stop it, there was a loud noise downstairs.
Boom!!!
The voice appeared very suddenly, and everyone was not mentally prepared, and everyone was taken aback.
Rong Rong's little face, which was originally arrogant, immediately changed color and threw himself into Shen Xue's arms.
I don't know exactly what caused the loud noise, but it certainly wasn't a good sign that loud noise suddenly came from nearby.
I hurriedly asked them all to retreat to the house, and the lock sky, who had been resting in the house, obviously heard the sound just now, and when I locked the security door, he had already run to the balcony.
With the lesson of the last time, I didn't let anyone else go to the balcony again, in case there were a large number of walking corpses downstairs now, then so many of us rushing to the balcony would be equivalent to directly exposing ourselves.
After watching the balcony for a while, he returned to the living room, his lips pursed, as if he was thinking about something.
Shen Xue was an anxious person, and when she saw that she returned to the living room, she immediately asked in a suppressed voice, "What's going on outside?" What's the sound about? Are there walking corpses down there? How much is it? ”
Shen Feng interrupted Shen Xue: "Xiaoxue! You ask so many questions at once, which one is better to let the lock sky answer? ”
Suotian glanced at me and said slowly, "A car crashed into a tree in the clearing in front of you. After a pause, he continued, "The people inside should be dead." ”
After the voice of the lock sky fell, the living room fell silent...
At the moment, none of us can do anything and be indifferent to watch a living life pass away before our eyes.
After a few minutes of silent silence, Yang Yang sighed and asked, "Why did the car suddenly hit the tree?" ”
Suotian shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
"Leave that alone for now, I'm thinking about it, will the loud noise just now attract all the things nearby?" Mei Jing asks a most substantive question.
