Chapter 7: May 6th

This is a small three-story building with a beautiful gray brick wall and a red spire that can be seen from the car.

The wall of the villa encloses a piece of land of four or five acres, the height of the wall is less than three meters, and outside the wall, a circle of horse-repellent fences is built with wood, plastic pipes, and metal poles, and the Yaya forks are as high as people's waists.

Ke Mingde got out of the car and pulled away from the horse.

"Stop!"

Someone shouted, Ke Mingde looked up, and five strong men stood behind the wall, their chests above the top of the wall, their feet on the wooden frame, and their guns in their hands.

There were three guns, two rifles, and one pistol.

The other two were armed with homemade bows and arrows.

The people of this world are similar in height to those of the earth, with facial features and body shape similar to those of the Nordic race, but their skin color is yellow, and their hair color is different, which is the same color as their eyes.

Naturally, these people will not be taller than the wall.

Although the wall of the villa is strong and beautiful, it is only a wall after all, thirty centimeters thick, and there is neither a lookout arrow hole nor a place to stay, which is not comparable to the fortification of the city wall.

Therefore, a wooden frame was built against the inner wall of the wall, and people could stand on it, just enough to expose the wall above the chest.

"Who are you?" asked the pistol-wielding man.

His words were rapid and powerful, just a few syllables, but with two slight trills.

Although he did not master the language and writing of this world, as long as he was an intelligent creature, Ke Mingde could communicate without hindrance.

"I'm a refugee, and when I saw the survivors here, I came to run!"

Ke Mingde responded with ideas and conveyed kindness.

"We welcome you, brother from afar, lucky traveler!"

The five men were immediately infected by the kindness, and convinced, laid down their weapons and made a ceremonial gesture.

Under the suggestion, they didn't even notice that Ke Mingde's lips and teeth didn't move.

"Is there anyone else in your car?"

"There is only one panda, don't worry, he is very smart, he never hurts anyone, he is my brother!"

Ke Mingde clapped his hands, and Thor squeezed out the door, startling the few people at the wall.

"Come in, it's not safe outside!"

A few people at the head of the wall came down from the shelves, and there was a grinding sound that opened the iron door.

"Open the door wider, I'll drive the car in!"

The courtyard of the villa is so large that it almost fits into a garden, but now all the contemplative plants in it have been uprooted and planted with vegetables and grains.

A few square meters of solar panels are erected in a sunny place, which is what it gives Ke Mingde and indicates the location.

Parking the car in an open space, Ke Mingde got out of the car, surrounded by forty or fifty curious people.

There were men and women, old and young, their clothes were not so neat, and they still had weapons in their hands that they had not had time to put down.

There were several weapons that caught Komingde's attention.

The prong, a long "Y" shaped weapon, can be used to fork a dried corpse against the wall and ensure that it is not harmed, and the net bag, similar to the net of a dragonfly, but more sturdy, is made of wire, which is supposed to catch ferocious small birds or small animals, such as cats, dogs, and mice.

"What are you doing here! It's getting dark, hurry up and get to work now!"

The man with the pistol said, dispersing the crowd and leading Ko Mingde into the living room.

The beautifully decorated living room has been destroyed and converted into a dining room with six or seven wooden tables and low, simple stools.

"I'm Corleone, the leader of this settlement, a guest from afar, where are you from, what's your name?"

Corone brought in two chairs.

"Dolly, go fetch some water!"

He screamed, and a child outside the door who was holding on to the edge of the door and peeking at Thor immediately ran away.

Ke Mingde carefully looked at the Corone in front of him, one meter eight tall, with a thick neck, a high forehead and a square chin, orange hair and beard were very conspicuous, but there were some oily stains, and the color of his eyes was more yellow.

He wore a navy blue short-sleeved shirt, the hair on the backs of his arms and hands was vigorous, there were mud huts hidden in the cracks of his fingernails, some muddy water on the cuffs of his trousers, and his flat shoes were even more dirty.

"My name is Ke Mingde, and I'm coming from the south side of the city. ”

"It's been a long way, it's not easy. ”

Realizing his appearance, Corion shrugged his shoulders and apologized: "It has just rained heavily, and the weeds in the fields are growing quickly, you know, there is no place to sell herbicides in this world!"

"Mr. Ke, don't mind if I call you that, do you? What are your plans now, continue to migrate, or find a place to stay?"

"I'd like to join you, okay?"

"That's so welcome! So we'll have forty-eight of us! Humans are so rare now that they'll be extinct one day. Corion sighed.

"Corleone, you've run out of water in the bucket!"

Dolly quickly ran back, carrying an empty plastic basin.

"It's so fast!" Coleone muttered, "Wait a minute." ”

With that, he walked out of the living room and came to the back of the courtyard.

There were more than a dozen large barrels, some tin buckets, some plastic buckets, which were covered with wooden lids.

A plastic water hose rests on top of the bucket.

"Ka!"

He opened a power switch, and Ulu Ulu rang out, and clear water flowed out of the pipe.

"Drink water?"

Corleone washed his hands first, then fished out a plastic bowl from the bucket and took a few sips.

"I'm not thirsty. Ke Mingde excused.

"Dolly, you fill the bucket with water, call me when it's almost full, don't touch the switch yourself!"

Corleone hands the hose to the child.

"I worry every day about what to do if we run out of electricity, we immediately have no water to drink, and this solar generator has been used for four years. ”

As he walked, he complained: "The well is 150 meters deep and about the same diameter as my thigh, so I can only rely on a pump to pump water. ”

"Can you tell me the reason for all this? What's going on in the city, what happened on May 6th, 436?"

Ko Mingde interrupted him.

After a moment of silence, Corleone showed a look of fear and despair:

"On May 6th, as usual, I took a day off to accompany my daughter to the school for a parent-teacher conference, but by noon, everything changed......"

"All of a sudden, the sky became dark, the sun was obscured by something, and it took only fifteen minutes for it to be completely blocked, and the world was completely darkened, and you could not see your fingers, not even the stars. ”

"Radio and TV news immediately reported that there was a solar eclipse, I knew it was a lie, just to maintain stability, I experienced a solar eclipse when I was in school, it was 415, my teacher explained to us the principle of the eclipse, and took us to observe the ......"

"By four or five o'clock in the afternoon, the street lights on the street were on, like late at night, everyone knew that something was wrong, and at seven o'clock in the evening, the other half of the planet was supposed to be dawn, but the news came that my younger brother worked in Yuanguo, and he called me to tell me that it was also dark on that side, and the whole planet was shrouded in darkness, and the sun was gone......"
