Chapter Forty-Nine: Seeing the Truth in Adversity
"Smack! Syllable! ”
The sound of lightning echoed throughout the base.
With the sound of lightning, the lights above the canopy flickered and flickered.
In the flicker, the entire base was littered with ruins, and in some places blazing flames could be seen.
Blood stains could be seen on every wall, some scratched indiscriminately, others with words for help.
And corpses can be seen in every corner, most of them are mutilated. And the tragedy is extremely terrible.
Just then, the silence of the base was broken by the sound of small footsteps.
"How far are we from the monitoring room now?" Lu Lei, who had just been rescued from the ruins, hobbled among the blood and ruins with the rice grains.
They don't know how far they've walked, they feel like they haven't eaten or drunk for a long time, and their bodies are already exhausted.
But they still walked. It's as if they only have this one belief.
"Gollum!"
A pebble was kicked away by a grain of rice, but she couldn't stand it in the end, and her body couldn't help but fall.
Lu Lei tried his best to hurriedly hold on, for fear that the rice grains would be injured a little.
Even so, he had no strength, and Mi Li took Lu Lei and fell into the ruins all of a sudden.
Lu Lei thought about it in a panic, but his body didn't listen to the call, and he didn't want to move anymore.
"Are you alright?"
These three words finally popped out of Lu Lei's mouth.
Mi Li didn't have the strength to speak at the moment, so he could only shake his head weakly.
Then lay in the rubble, motionless.
Lu Lei looked at the rice grains next to him and saw her bloodless cheeks. I want to touch it.
As soon as the hand touched his cheek, his eyes began to blur.
Gradually it was pitch black in front of me, and I didn't know anything for a moment.
"Roaring ......"
At that moment, a hissing rang out, reverberating throughout the base.
Lu Lei was also awakened by this voice, and his first reaction was to look at the rice grains beside him.
At this moment, Mi Li's eyes were closed, and there was a very faint snoring sound between his noses.
In this way, Lu Lei felt that the rice grains at the moment were so cute, and he looked at the cute eyelashes, constantly shaking under his eyelids, as if he was dreaming.
"Lu Lei, don't leave me!"
Mi Li sat up suddenly, and his first reaction was to look at Lu Lei beside him. saw Lu Lei looking at himself at the moment.
Only then did I realize that it was just a dream.
"What time is it?"
Lu Lei took out his mobile phone and looked at the time.
"It's four o'clock!"
Mi Li was very familiar with the entire base, and she looked around. I saw a house number hanging on the wall.
"Staff lounge."
This allows the rice grains to determine their location.
"Right now we're in the southwest corner of the base, and the monitoring room is on the east side of the entire base. We're going to get there, and we're going to have to walk a long way. ”
As soon as Mi Li finished speaking, his stomach began to be dissatisfied.
The rice grain was instantly embarrassed.
Lu Lei had other ideas: "How many hours do you need to walk to the monitoring room?" ”
"Judging by our journey, it will take at least half an hour."
Lu Lei knew that Mi Li didn't have any complaints, but he knew very well in his heart that Mi Li was already very hungry. With his current strength, he simply can't walk for another half an hour.
"What then?"
Lu Lei kept thinking in his mind, and his body unconsciously leaned back.
"Poof!"
He was thinking about things and didn't notice the corpse at his feet at all. His foot inadvertently stepped on the corpse's thigh, which caused him to fall on top of the corpse.
Lu Lei tried to stand up with his hands, but he felt something bulging on the corpse.
"That's military rations?"
Lu Lei immediately began to grope for the entire corpse, but he found a piece of military biscuit.
The outer packaging of the biscuit had already been soaked with blood. Although the inside is a little broken, it is generally edible.
He quickly ran to the rice grain. Hand the biscuit in his hand to Mi Li: "Give!" You're hungry, you eat! ”
Mi Li held the somewhat broken biscuits in both hands, and was about to say something. I saw Lu Lei leave again and began to feel the other corpse.
"Lu Lei, you eat!" Looking at the busy Lu Lei, Mi Li felt a little unbearable.
Lu Lei turned his head and smiled with relief: "I'm not hungry, you can eat!" We're going to keep going. ”
He then continued to rummage through the corpses for food.
Lu Lei is not hungry? How could Mi Li not know, this was his comfort to Mi Li, and he didn't want her to have too much psychological burden. But the more this happens, the more reluctant the rice grains are to eat.
She opened the package a little and saw a trace of cookie crumbs appear. She picked it up gently, put it in her mouth and chewed it.
"Lu Lei, what are you doing here, why is it so unpalatable?"
Then she threw the biscuit in Lu Lei's direction.
"Gollum ......"
The voice echoed in their ears between the two of them.
Lu Lei was about to get angry, but he saw rice grains. Mi Li's eyes stared at the biscuits on the ground, and she couldn't help but swallow in her throat.
At this time, she looked up and saw Lu Lei's eyes looking at her, and she immediately turned her head and pretended to vomit.
Lu Lei couldn't tell that she was acting when he saw the rice grain. There is a biscuit in front of them, and there is only a small piece of biscuit, and a child may not be able to eat enough if he eats such a small piece, let alone two adults?
Lu Lei hurriedly walked over, picked up the biscuit from the ground, and wiped the dust on it: "Rice grains, eat it quickly, you see I have it." ”
As he spoke, Lu Lei took out a biscuit wrapped in a packaging bag from his pocket: "I found it on the corpse over there just now." ”
Mi Li saw that there was indeed a biscuit in his hand, so he devoured the biscuit.
Then she looked at Lu Lei, wanting to watch Lu Lei eat the cookie.
Lu Lei opened the bag with a smile and saw that the bag was wrapped in a stone.
"Lu Lei, didn't you say that there is still a cookie? How is it a stone? ”
Lu Lei smiled slightly: "Mi Li, I didn't find the biscuits on the corpse just now, I was lying to you." ”
This sentence suddenly made Mi Li start to sob: "Lu Lei, you are a big liar!" You're a big liar! ”
However, Lu Lei didn't eat anything in his stomach for a long time, which made him very weak, and his eyes gradually began to blur. It was as if your feet were on cotton, and if you shook them twice, they were about to fall.
"Mi Li, I'm sorry! I won't be able to walk with you for the rest of my life! You're going to have to be good in the future. ”
Then his eyes went dark, and everything went dark.
This made Mi Li cry even more sadly, and he kept shaking Lu Lei, hoping that he would regain consciousness.
But no matter how she swayed, Lu Lei kept his eyes closed.
"Lu Lei, wake up! Wake up! How can I live without you! Please! Wake up! ”
But no matter how she shook, Lu Lei was still motionless like a dead corpse.
This time Lu Lei is really going to die. And they were starved to death.
