Again, please don't go out casually, looking for food, there is still some danger outside, for your comfort! Please don't go out and walk around! ”
The fifteenth day of the end times......
Chen Jun sat in the car and lit a cigarette, glanced at the time, it was already half past ten, and the radio broadcast that was broadcast on time every day was half an hour late today, and perhaps, there would be no more broadcasts from now on......
Opening a pack of biscuits, Chen Jun looked at the car radio while eating, although he knew that more than 90,000 people were infected was definitely not an accurate number, and even adding a zero to the back was possible, and he didn't believe that a person whose intestines were all exposed outside, and who had long been out of breath and could still walk, was alive.
But he still wanted to hypnotize himself, believing that what the hostess said was true, and this virus could really be controlled, but he was disappointed.
He had to return to the suburbs today, the first was that the food was gone, and the food he got back from the mall had already been eaten, and Chen Jun had also swept away several nearby shops.
Second, he needed medicine and he had some diarrhea......
Chen Jun is a little overconfident in his own body, sleeping on the damp, cold concrete floor covered with a blanket every day, he has had some diarrhea since yesterday, and he still does not get better today.
After untying his hand just now, he knew that he was a little dehydrated, and eating compressed food and some non-nutritious things for more than ten days made his body feel a little weak, which was caused by not supplementing trace elements.
There is no pharmacy here, at least he didn't find it, and the tires of this small box of goods that have been gnawed by rats are almost gone, and the battery cord was bitten off by rats the day before yesterday, and it was connected by Chen Jun when he checked it himself.
The lack of a good car in the village meant that he would have to walk several kilometres or even tens of kilometres to find a pharmacy, which would be a risky challenge for anyone, including Chen.
Besides, Chen Jun has now entered a period of weakness, and he is still strong for anyone, but he knows that due to the lack of water, his endurance and explosiveness have decreased a lot.
In the past few days, he observed that around six o'clock every night, those mutated insects and animals would appear, and with the slow arrival of winter, the sun would set a little earlier than usual every day, although it was not obvious, but Chen Jun had noticed that the insects would also come out a little earlier.
But then there is a good situation, these bugs will die! It's not human killing, it's natural death! With the arrival of late autumn, they do not have the ability to survive the winter, and they begin to gradually lose their vitality, and every morning when the insect tide recedes, there will be a thick layer of insect corpses on the street, and maybe in winter, these things will not appear.
Back upstairs, the teapot on the fire was already boiling, puffing out of the steam, took it down and poured it in a teapot, left it dry for a while and picked it up and blew it gently, Chen Jun quickly drank up a pot of hot water, a hot breath in his stomach made him feel very comfortable, after sighing, he needed to hurry up and set off after packing his things, and he would not come back to this place.
Although the population of this village is not large, there are still a lot of good things that can be used, first of all, he thinks that the biggest gain, a mountain machete almost sixty or seventy centimeters long, although it is not a treasure knife that sharpens iron like clay, but it is much better for self-defense than his wrench that is about twenty centimeters long.
The second is a military backpack, which needless to say, is particularly sturdy and can be loaded.
There are also flashlights, radios, cold medicines, etc., a lot of good things, but what makes Chen Jun feel a little annoyed is that he has searched all the houses in this village, cold medicine, anti-inflammatory drugs, antihypertensive drugs, and even hemorrhoid cream.
Throwing the remaining bottles of water, bags of compressed biscuits and ham sausages into his backpack, Chen Jun went downstairs with a machete, came out of the village entrance, and walked on the national highway in the direction of Luhua City.
There is really no danger on the national highway, not many people are infected on the national highway, there are only a few zombies wandering on the bright avenue, Chen Jun cut down directly at the neck, and a head flew up in an instant.
Looking at the knife that had not yet curled the blade, Chen Jun was very satisfied, wiped two handfuls on the zombie's clothes, and set foot on the way back again.
After walking for about two hours, at one o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Jun came to the edge of the suburbs, and from here, he had to add twelve points of caution.
Sure enough, the streets were full of zombies, wandering back and forth as if patrolling the streets.
The cat secretly looked for cover on the street, but fortunately the zombies couldn't make too much noise, and occasionally sporadic zombies found Chen Jun and was quietly solved by him.
I easily found a pharmacy, the door was open, there was no one inside, and I looked at the situation of the medicine, and basically no one touched it.
After all, most people don't realize the preciousness of medicine, and if someone is bold enough to take the medicine, they only take the medicine they need, and the other medicines basically won't move.
After looking at the classification, Chen Jun quickly found the medicine for diarrhea, quickly ate two pills, and then opened the bag and filled it with other medicines.
Treating heart disease, lowering blood pressure, taking as much as you want, throwing away the box, saving a lot of space, until the bag was almost full, Chen Jun stopped and prepared to leave.
But then he stopped again, and the reason he stopped was that the prescription drugs were .....
He once saw a book at Liu's home that summarized the use and side effects of many prescription drugs, including addictive drugs such as analgesics and hypnotic drugs.
Others are medications that can cause hallucinations if taken in excess, but are not just specifically used to treat diseases......
Throwing away some medicines for common ailments, Chen Jun had already filled a backpack of medicines when he went out, most of which were prescription drugs, medicines for mental illness......
After the drug problem was solved, the second thing was food, but when he passed by a supermarket just now, he found that the goods in it were gone.
He still planned to try his luck, and walked through several supermarkets and grain and oil stores in a row, all of which had been emptied.
Then there is no reason to stay here, Chen Jun looked at the sky, it was still early, it was better to go farther and see if there was any food left.
Just as he was about to get up and leave, suddenly a thin figure ran in front of Chen Jun's eyes, and he didn't find Chen Jun, so he quickly ran into an alley and disappeared.
Seeing this, Chen Jun hurriedly chased after him, because he saw that this thin man was actually holding a small bag of flour in his arms!
