009 Zombies are not scary
"I don't want to speculate like that, but there's no use fooling yourself...... Don't jump to conclusions just yet, I'll try this later. Although Hong Tao had thought of this result in advance, his heart was still heavy when he really knew that the whole world was affected by monsters.
To make further sure, he picked up the headset of the shortwave radio station, turned on the laptop connected to the station, and searched for every known common band of ham while making a call with his own call sign.
In the early autumn, seeing the landlord skillfully operating these complex equipment that he couldn't understand, a complicated feeling suddenly surged in his heart. Although this man looks a little unreliable and a little confused, he is not only unfazed when he encounters a mutation, but also has a high force value and a more careful mind.
Dealing with monsters is like chopping melons and vegetables, and there will be so many things, it seems safe to stay by his side. At this time, I really can't look at the appearance, even if I grow into Pan An, the monsters probably won't hesitate for a second, and they won't bite less than half a bite.
But thinking about his previous performance, it seems that he is really not very good, that is, the landlord has a good temper, otherwise he would have been kicked out a long time ago. And it doesn't seem right to say that he is obsessed, after all, he has neither done anything with him until now, nor has he tried to force anything.
"Let's have some coffee first...... In order to make up for his previous bad attitude, Chuqiu quietly went to his house to get a can of coffee, ran to the kitchen to make it, and then brought it over and put it on the stone table.
"Click...... I'll tell you the sad news, I haven't received a single valid signal. Hong Tao was still carefully distinguishing the sound in the headphones, and only after the coffee was finished did he take off the headphones and threw them heavily on the laptop screen, basically giving up.
At this time, the electromagnetic environment is surprisingly good, and the noise floor level is almost one-tenth of the usual weak. This illustrates another problem, the power supply of the entire city is almost paralyzed, and there are very few devices that can cause electromagnetic pollution. It is estimated that in another day and a half, when most of the UPS battery packs also run out of power, this situation will be aggravated.
The mood that had just improved a little in early autumn was immediately hit into a trough again, and the city, the whole country, and the whole world ...... The Buddha, God, and the Queen Mother have all stopped eating with Guanyin Bodhisattva, which makes people live!
"Are we hopeless?" No, there is still a landlord here, he knows so much, maybe there will be a way!
"If you believe me, I'll live with you. In the current situation, I dare not say that I can live a long life, at least I will not be starved to death, thirst to death, and no one will die of disease. But if those monsters have changed, such as having a higher IQ, then it is useless for anyone to come, so hang it up! ”
Looking at the woman squatting beside her, clutching her arm, looking up with her little face and wide eyes full of hope, Hong Tao told the truth again. He also patted the back of her hand, not to comfort her, but to remind her not to use so much force, she is not a monster, and she knows that it hurts.
"Woooooooooo......oo Woo woo woo ......" In an instant, Chuqiu began to cry again, and he didn't stop crying at all, he really cried loudly, and put his face on the man's arm. It was so exciting, so scary, physically and mentally exhausting, and the huge pressure almost crushed people to death, and they couldn't bear it anymore.
"Or are you ruthless enough, in order to torture me, you actually let billions of people accompany the funeral, admire, admire!"
Hong Tao didn't stop the woman's crying, feeling hopeless is a normal human reaction, and a person like himself with an indifferent attitude is a monster. But he was not idle, looking up at the clear sky, and there were words in his mouth.
After crying, the woman completely changed, returned to the kitchen and stared at the pressure cooker silently in a daze, and even glanced at her sister from time to time with less subconscious movements.
Hong Tao wiped away tears and possibly a little snot from his arm, put on a headset and continued to operate on the computer. This time, it's not an outgoing call, but the software keeps scanning each frequency band, trying to find the call made by others.
But most of my mind is doing another job, planning, planning how to live in the future. Even if you die, you can't commit suicide so simply, leaving Chu Qiu, Uncle Xiao, Liu Ruoshuang, Liu Ruoyu, Gloria, Yu Yanan, and millet grains who are studying in college in the United States......
According to the plot in the online article, at this time, he should find a way to escape from the city, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers and green trees to hide from the pursuit of monsters, and coincidentally, there is a strong fortress there, which stores food, drinking water, oil, clothing, weapons and ammunition......
Or find a car, rampage along the road, and go through a lot of hardships to save your parents, siblings, a woman you love, or Lao Tie. Then meet certain people along the way, there must be heroines, main supporting characters, villains and soy sauce fighters, and there are also bases established by survivors.
But Hong Tao resolutely doesn't think so, the city is the home field he is most familiar with, and if he leaves here, he will lose his geographical advantage.
Need to look around for food and water in a big city? Not at all. Why do you want to venture into a supermarket and treat the resources at your fingertips as if you have nothing at your fingertips?
Whether you live in a hutong or a neighborhood, there will always be neighbors. Each neighbor's home is a small warehouse with packaged food, bottled water, mineral water, beverages, medicines, clothes, tools, materials, and more.
And there will be another thing in the alley, called liquefied petroleum gas, which is commonly known as coal gas. In homes without natural gas, it is a daily fuel, not only for cooking, but also for driving water heaters, ovens, small heating boilers, and so on.
Instead of walking through the streets and alleys and risking being besieged by monsters to go to the supermarket, it is better to go door-to-door to get it. All you have to deal with is a few monsters in each neighbor's house, and the difficulty and danger are much less. You can also make all kinds of traps in advance, like a tripwire made of wire, or simply put down the sleeve and clamp.
Anyway, as long as you use your brain and know a little common sense of life, it is easier to kill this brainless monster than to go hunting in Africa. At least the prey is very careful, agile, and very good at hiding, and the monster will only chase people stupidly, as if it can't swim.
Someone said that the neighbors have anti-theft doors, and such a sturdy artifact is not something that ordinary people can deal with. Hong Tao wants to say that the people who can think like this are basically young people in the city, and they can be summed up as waste who is not diligent, does not distinguish between grains, and is dumbfounded when he leaves his parents.
The door lock is never a reliable thing, it only works when the law is in force, and it loses the law and order, not to mention the fitter, a little hands-on ability, you can easily open it with the help of various tools.
Someone else said that if you stay in one place, the monsters will come and besiege you. When the time comes, thousands of monsters, without any communication equipment, will cooperate with each other, swarming from all directions, sealing off every street.
If the monster could have this kind of intelligence, as well as organization and leadership, then Hong Tao could only choose to drink nicotine. If you can't really fight it, isn't it just billions of painless, tireless, and partially bulletproof armies, even if you can't use weapons, humans can't compete.
The basic condition for Hong Tao to survive is that the monster's IQ is very low, and he can't even have the wisdom of a wolf.
But Hong Tao is not satisfied with living, it is too low-end, not only to live but also to live with quality, security, and hope, and at the same time try to preserve the fire of human civilization. That is, to bring as many survivors together as possible and use the existing energy and equipment to resume production as soon as possible.
In fact, the monsters that are currently known are not scary, and those who can survive are really scary. As long as there are enough of them, people will start counting for themselves. This is also human nature, which will not change because of anything, and once the external pressure is reduced, it will be revealed immediately.
Hong Tao also has no solution to this problem, and it's a bit early to think about this now, so let's take a step at a time. Survive first and then talk about anything else, otherwise no matter how many ideas you have, it will be in vain.
If you want to live a quality life, in addition to food and water, the first thing you need to consider is energy. In the early autumn, she almost couldn't eat rice because of no electricity, in fact, not only was she extremely uncomfortable with life without electricity, but even Hong Tao herself couldn't do without electricity.
In other words, most of the world's population is probably accustomed to the convenience of electricity, and suddenly losing it can be very, very uncomfortable, even life-threatening.
