Chapter 268: No One Survives
"I'll tell you something even worse, the base's water supply is cut off."
Water, the source of life.
This matter is really something that no one dares to proclaim, and even when Zheng knew about it, he couldn't slow it down for a long time. The withering look on his face can be described.
Wei Yuan and Zhang Zheng didn't expect that they were looking for the director to react to the matter, but they were told something even more amazing by Zheng Suo.
"How can the water source be cut off?" Wei Yuan changed color. Cutting off water is much more terrifying than cutting off food and electricity.
Of all the necessary conditions for human survival, water is the first and most scarce.
The base has long been able to guarantee the minimum supply of drinking water every day, and don't think about bathing or anything, so many people are becoming more and more sloppy and numb.
When people are no longer able to preserve human dignity, there is nothing left.
"Four months ago, in the face of the worsening erosion, it was predicted that there would be a shortage of supplies, so at that time we made a decision that you would not have imagined – that is, to dig the groundwater by hand." Everyone has learned how to dig wells and dig wells, this ancient but super useful method, Zheng sighed, "If this plan is successful, everyone can at least not worry about water for a few years." ”
Hearing that he was going to dig up underground living water, Wei Yuan couldn't help but feel that this plan was really good.
It is typical to teach a man to fish rather than to teach him to fish.
But now there is no machinery, it all depends on artificial, such as the pyramids in the past, the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, all kinds of huge projects are all artificial, I thought of these quite bloody, human history is a hymn of courage.
However, looking at Zheng's expression and reaction to this, how is it ...... Is this hymn not sung?
"Coincidentally, a groundwater channel was dug from outside the Sixth Ring Road in the previous municipal project in Beijing and Hong Kong, and this waterway was half completed before the erosion came...... So the above plan is that if we can continue to use the terrain that we have opened up before and connect it from the underground, then we have a good chance of getting a water source nearby. ”
The so-called source of living water means that as long as there is a source of living water, it can be inexhaustible.
The idea and plan are very mature, and the above is also very quick to approve the matter, and the workers are all experienced construction workers selected from the crowd, and everyone is willing to do such a thing.
After all, as long as there is hope for the road ahead, there is no shortage of warriors for mankind. And the early stage of this project was really smooth, so smooth that everyone thought there must be a dawn.
"But the workers are all missing." Zheng Suo is now losing hope, so he simply said everything he knew, "All the people who built the groundwater project have lost contact, and none of them have come back." ”
Excavation of groundwater, this method is indeed very courageous, at this time the upper echelons can still think of this method, it is indeed very trying.
"Director, can we not tell horror stories in broad daylight......" Zhang Zheng's face tightened. He just came to complain about Gao Wenwu's affairs.
Zheng Suo had already drunk the water in the cup, and then he licked his dry lips, "Horror story? If only it were a story, it's a real thing that happened! ”
Zhang Zhengtou lowered his head and wilted.
"Missing?" Wei Yuan noticed Zheng's unusual words for a long time.
Shouldn't everyone's first reaction be "erosion"?
Sure enough, Zheng Suo's first sentence was not shocking: "The problem is...... It's not erosion. "It stands to reason that if it is eroded, there will be traces of erosion, but the workers who went underground disappeared without any traces. That's what makes people feel scary.
"What is not erosion?" Zhang Zheng felt incredible, the most bizarre thing in the world now is erosion.
Zheng Suo wiped the sweat that didn't exist at all: "Those people didn't exist overnight...... Nothing was left, I don't know. ”
First of all, there is a process of erosion, and it is everyone, and everyone disappears overnight.
It's an underground passage, how can it suddenly disappear. And hundreds of people, and those who were on the ground never saw them come out.
"They're all underground, and no one comes out."
No one survives, no one survives. The overseer on the ground reported to the superior in just four words.
The office was as silent as death, Zhang Zheng didn't even hear the atmosphere, he glanced at Wei Yuan silently, should they go?
I knew I shouldn't have come today.
For such a serious matter, it is estimated that Zheng Suo's level has been informed, and the specific measures and responses are unknown.
Without food, we can endure these and think of a way, but without water, we can ......, and without water will greatly accelerate the death of human beings.
It's really not a way to live for human beings at all.
"Now you know, the reality is that it's getting worse almost all the time." Zheng Suo rubbed his forehead, it can be said that it is not a good thing, "So I said that you don't need to be too hostile to Bai Jin's person, as far as I know, he will lead a team to the underground in the near future to investigate this matter thoroughly." ”
Zhang Zheng was really shocked. "What? That white hair wants to lead the team? ”
Zheng Suo bowed, "Yes, it was not so simple to send him to the base from above, and he was needed to do something." ”
Power is never given for no reason, and many times an ordinary person suddenly gains great power, and he needs to pay a greater price.
"I thought he would only sit in the room and let off his mouth...... "It's heavenly, I really want to lead the team, Zhang Zheng really didn't expect this to happen."
It seems to have figured it out at once, so it's no wonder that everyone in the base before, including Zheng Suo, was so patient with Bai Mao, after all, no one wanted to go underground.
……
Zhao Ying stayed in the church, now she has to look at the two of them alone, Gao Wenwu has been carried back from the health center, and now obviously no one dares to let the comatose Gao Wenwu stay alone, Zhao Ying just sat on the edge of his bed, wiping his face from time to time.
I really didn't expect the team to be so bumpy now, Zhao Ying's face was full of worry, and Jiang Shan sat quietly in the corner, like a human body ornament.
Jiang Shan was staring at a bird outside the window, and the bird had been standing on a branch for a long, long time, and Jiang Shan had been staring at it for the same time.
There was a sudden knock on the door of the church, loud and unceremonious.
Zhao Ying, who was wiping, was shocked.
She immediately stood up and went to open the door, subconsciously thinking that Zhang Zheng and Wei Yuan were back, and this impatient knock on the door was also very similar to Zhang Zheng's temper.
"Here we are." Zhao Ying pulled the latch and opened the door.
A young man with silver hair stood at the door and saw Zhao Ying squinting: "Is Dr. Wei here?" ”
Zhao Ying immediately froze when she saw the person standing at the door, with a gloomy face, dazzling hair color, and two gun-wielding security guards behind her. Her impression of this person was still stuck in the very gloomy interrogation: "You, what are you doing here?" ”
Bai Jin's gaze swept directly over Zhao Ying, looked at the dim church, and suddenly saw the figure sitting in front of the window.
His eyes changed.
Zhao Ying had the impulse to close the door at that moment.
Bai Jin actually stretched out his hand directly, pushed her away, and then led the people into the church.
"Hey!" Zhao Ying's body stiffened, and then chased after him.
She saw the silver-haired Bai Jin go straight to Jiang Shan's side.
"Stop!" Zhao Ying still hurried ahead of Bai Jin, and her body stopped in front of Jiang Shan, looking directly at Bai Jin, "What are you going to do?" ”
Bai Jin glanced at Zhao Ying, his eyes gloomy. That's the look of a true villain.
But Zhao Ying was not frightened by him, this is the base, in broad daylight, and she is still guarding the two most important teammates. "Dr. Wei is not here now, please come back next time."
