I opened my eyes and glanced at the radio at the bedside, half past eight in the morning......

It's the third day of the apocalypse.

I got up and brushed my teeth, made a cold salad, shredded chicken breast, and ate it with rice.

After getting up and checking the electrical appliances and generators on a daily basis, Yi Ling began to tidy up the experimental instruments after confirming the safety.

The fact that the experimental instruments were not damaged really gave Yi Ling a big surprise, and all types of microscopes can be used normally.

The instruments were placed in their respective positions, and Yi Ling took out the mysterious bacteria sample in the safe.

The mysterious fungus, which had not received nutrients for a long time, now looked a little sluggish, and the structure of the fungus blanket that extended out became thin and transparent, and in the middle of the slender pipe, a faint crystal liquid was transported along the pipe to all corners of the fungus blanket.

Holding the fluorescent lamp and the tube for the experiment, Yi Ling opened the sterile box.

After checking the airtightness of the sterile box, Yi Ling began to sterilize the sterile box, and after cleaning, he opened the bacterial tube in the sterile box through gloves.

Feeling that the enclosed space was opened, the fungus in the tube visibly rioted to the naked eye, and the slender meridians extended outward like tentacles.

It's very aggressive......

Looking at the meridians that were trying to climb up the scissors, Yi Ling frowned, cut off a section and put it into the saturated salt water.

Cut meridians fall into the water and immediately grow thin ribbon-like organs, which are entwined and grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

What a horrible thing...... If they can survive in saturated salt water, then wouldn't they survive in the sea?

Yi Ling put down the petri dish and didn't dare to take it out, so he closed the lid and let it multiply in the sterile box.

In just a short period of time, four or five meridians have already stretched out of the thallus tube and began to grow coveringly.

Yi Ling sped up the movement of his hand, cut off a piece of meridian and threw it into a blank petri dish, covered it with a lid and put it in the corner, Yi Ling planned to place a fluorescent lamp in the corner to simulate the sun, to see if this kind of meridian could photosynthesize.

After envisioning several different growth conditions, Yi Ling set up several control groups, and finally confirmed the tightness of the sterile box, and Yi Ling ended the study.

It's time for lunch.

Take a few pieces of brisket and tomatoes out of the freezer and prepare to make a tomato brisket pot.

In order to save water resources, after blanching the beef brisket, Yi Ling couldn't bear to pour it out, and used it directly as a raw material for stew after removing the foam.

Originally, the beef was marinated with various seasonings, but the amount of seasonings was really limited, so this step had to be omitted.

Because there was no butter, Yi Ling had to use lard instead, and he didn't know what it tasted like.

After rummaging in the refrigerator for a long time, he couldn't find the tomato sauce, so Yi Ling had to add a few more tomatoes, and then add some water starch to thicken it.

After a long day of work, this simplified version of the tomato brisket pot is okay, and then it's ready to be stewed.

I can still sit at the table and enjoy the good meat...... I don't know how the survivors are living now.

Yi Ling's eyes were glazed, and his thoughts slowly emanated.

The city center must be the place where the nuclear bomb exploded, it is an extremely dangerous area, and the bustling city center is basically impossible to have a living person under an explosion of this scale, and there may be no living people within the three bad ones in a row......

The explosion damage of a nuclear bomb explosion is considered to be the least powerful, and it can cause great damage to buildings on the surface, but it can not cause too much harm to underground civil air defense projects, unless it is too close to collapse directly.

Almost all the subways of the flower planters have supporting civil air defense projects, the guidance of government personnel, and some smart people will naturally find the subway to hide.

The power of the nuclear bomb explosion is estimated to directly destroy all the subway lines and civil air defense equipment in the first ring, and the high temperature and high pressure generated by the explosion and the shock wave are estimated to be unbearable to the people in the second ring...... Therefore, the physical condition of the people in the third and fourth rings is estimated to be dangerous.

Then the citizens who can survive are either in the remote suburbs like me, or outside the Fifth Ring Road.

If citizens outside the Fifth Ring Road can find enough food to take refuge in safe shelters, it is estimated that they will be able to hold on, and the radiation from the nuclear explosion will begin to drop sharply after a week, and it will reach a relatively safe level in a month.

And there are almost no civil air defense facilities in the suburbs, and the basement is still too vulnerable to the beginning of a nuclear war, and even beta and alpha radiation can't stop it...... If you are exposed to too much radiation, you will get radiation sickness within two weeks, and in more severe cases, you will die within three weeks......

In this environment, maybe I should find someone to do some work for me?

Yi Ling tapped his chopsticks and thought carefully.

No, no, I'm alone, alone, if I bring someone to the shelter, they want to rob me, I have no room to resist.

You know, hunger drives people crazy...... The extreme animality of the hungry will be fully aroused, and the tragedy of cannibalism will appear, and if their shelter is exposed, it is not difficult to imagine what crazy people will do.

Perhaps, I can win over some cronies......

No, I don't want to be stabbed to death by a knife from behind.

What's more, they all have their own relatives, if I invite them to live with me, will they kill me as the master for the sake of their family and become the master themselves......

I have always been an outsider, and no matter how much I give them, I will always be an outsider.

The brain was working rapidly, and Yi Ling never realized that he was so smart.

While I do need manpower, safety comes first, and safety is the top priority in everything.

First of all, I need weapons, and with them I can protect myself.

When the end comes, when order begins to collapse and survival materials begin to run short, then snatching survival materials from the weak will become the norm.

Only sufficient force can protect one's own life and property.

One of the workers seemed to mention that there was a machine shop in a nearby city that produced guns and ammunition and had a complete production line.

EMP must have burned the chips of the production line to shreds, but there should be usable equipment in it, which is worth noting.

Yi Ling took out his notebook and began to record his thoughts.

First, find that machine shop and get weapons and ammunition from it.

Second, if conditions permit, access to production equipment.

When recording here, Yi Ling suddenly remembered that at a dinner party, the worker had said that on a hill in another city, there was a warehouse for storing weapons and ammunition, but Yi Ling couldn't remember which urban area Yi Ling could only scribble on.

Wait, how can there be a burning smell...... That's right! There's still vegetables in the pot!

I was so engrossed in thinking that I forgot that there was still stew in the pot.

Remove the lid of the pot and stir it with a spoon, and the bottom of the pot is paste......

Fortunately, I can still eat......

Pour out the brisket in the pot, pick out the burnt tomatoes and brisket, and process it slightly, which should not affect the eating.

Smelling the paste in the soup, Yi Ling wanted to cry without tears, so he could only eat one bite at a time with tears in his eyes.

Yi Ling's refuge is in the suburbs, and it is a full thirty kilometers away from the outermost ring road, the Eighth Ring Road, which can be said to be the suburbs, and the police station in the town should also have guns, so you can go and see it when the time comes.

While eating and thinking, Yi Ling felt that his thinking was turning extremely fast.

The shops and convenience stores on the ground are estimated to have been wiped out, but there must be a lot of good things in the underground cold storage or warehouses of large stores.

Damn, how good it would be if the phone wasn't broken, how good would it be to open the phone and check the big store directly......

It's a pity that there are no ifs in this world.

In the absence of a map, Yi Ling could only record a few stores he frequented.

One is the largest department store in town, although I don't know if there is cold storage, but there should still be a lot of materials in it that can be used. There is also a Walmart store in the Seventh Ring Road, which has a large cold storage, so you can go and see it when the time comes.

Remember, Yi Ling suddenly thought of a question......

Even if I find something that works, how do I bring it back......

You know, EMP can destroy car circuits! As soon as the nuclear bomb explodes, all the cars will be useless, and the roads will be clogged with old cars!

What can I do about this......

After eating a piece of beef brisket, a burnt smell rushed straight to his head, Yi Ling's face did not change, he chewed and chewed and swallowed.

At this time, some of them are good to eat, and they can't be wasted.

There are folding bicycles in the basement, this is Yi Ling's car, it's okay to ride to the town, and it's terrible to get up to the seventh ring.

Town ...... Town ......

Yi Ling thought about it again and again, and his brows slowly relaxed.

That's right, tractors! There must be a tractor in town, and the tractor should not be destroyed by the emp, I should go to the town first and find a few working tractors.

Tractors may not be seen in the city, but in the countryside, they are fairly common.

Burning diesel, cheap, can tow a lot of things, simple and convenient operation, durable, can run anywhere, is to run all the way to spray black smoke, humming and humming very noisy.

That's it!

Yi Ling laughed, knocked out the previous plan, and wrote down the new plan.

First, go to the town to find weapons for self-defense (firearms, note: town public security bureau, address xxxx, cold weapons, note: Xinxing Farmers Wholesale Market, address xxxx)

Second, look for a few working tractors from the town (possible locations: Xinxing Wholesale Farmers Market, Xingzhen Pesticide and Fertilizer Market)

Third, collect supplies at the town's department stores

Fourth, look for someone who is reliable enough to be trusted (note: don't have a family for a while, unless you have enough power to protect yourself)

Planned time: Seven days after the nuclear explosion.

Precautions for planning: The action needs to be done as soon as possible, and there is still strong radiation on the seventh day.

Putting away the pen and drinking the last sip of soup, Yi Ling rubbed his head and collapsed on the soft bed.

It's so unpalatable, damn it, I should have saved some instant noodles and ham sausages if I knew I'd ......

Rubbing his swollen temples, Yi Ling gently closed his eyes.
