Chapter 11: The power went out
There was a long 'dripping' sound from the refrigerator,
Then there was the surprised sound of Liu Rong in the bathroom.
persisted for a few days, but after all, he couldn't escape this catastrophe.
"There's a power outage?"
Liu Rong leaned out half of her body from the bathroom and asked, wrapped in a bath towel that could not hide her proud figure in the slightest.
"Hmmm! The zombie bit the opposite electrical box and blew it up, and the circuit of the entire community should be paralyzed. ”
Knowing that now was not the time for the wind and snow, Xiao Tian only glanced at it, and then calculated with a solemn face a series of problems that would be caused by the 'power outage'.
In such a hot weather, vegetables may not last for two days.
What's worse is that the only ones that can be eaten raw are tomatoes.
Fortunately, there are thirty or forty packs of instant noodles, and there is no hot water, so it can last for more than ten days if you eat it dry.
As I was thinking about it, the water in the bathroom was gradually getting smaller and ticking...... Completely cut off the flow.
"The water is gone!!"
The system loses power and according to the emergency mechanism, the pipeline is automatically shut down!!
Sprinkle salt on the wound!!
If you look at the water stored in bottles, cans, and buckets, if you only use it for drinking, it can last for a week at most.
How serious the problem is, it can be seen from the fact that Liu Rong is not noisy or noisy, but just squatting on the ground with dull eyes.
Xiao Tian's brain spun rapidly, trying to find some way.
In a state of concentration, Xiao Tian unexpectedly found that many of the things he had experienced became clear in his mind.
Even from the moment he entered the apartment, he remembered what everyone said......
"When I moved in, I seemed to have heard from the agent that the solar power on the top floor had a line that could be used to supply electricity."
"Also, there's generators stored in each unit's computer room office, right??"
At this moment, no one could give Xiao Tian a response......
The two of them were silent for more than ten minutes, and Liu Rong got up and walked slowly out the door.
As if thinking of something, he turned around and looked at Xiao Tian suddenly, just wrapped in a bath towel, the huge advantage of no restraint, and shook it a few times from side to side.
After stabilizing himself, he said with great certainty, "Yes!!" ”
After receiving a definite answer, Xiao Tian let out a long breath.
Since it has not yet reached the moment when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, then everything still has a turning point.
"Don't worry, there will be a way, if you come, you will be safe!"
"You're going to ...... Go to the top floor?? ”
Under the pressure of such a situation, the top floor must be broken through.
"Have a good night's rest, tomorrow morning, go up and have a look~ try to bring back a generator."
Liu Rong showed a worried look: "That...... I'll wait for you to come back! With that, he went back to his room.
Xiao Tian sat cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed, canceled the originally planned cultivation, completely emptied himself, and deduced every possible situation in his mind.
After confirming everything that could be thought of, the moon was already high in the sky outside.
I looked at my watch, but I didn't expect that seven or eight hours would pass like a white horse.
I rubbed my temples and relieved the fatigue of my brain.
As soon as Xiao Tian touched the pillow, he fell asleep.
………………
At six o'clock, without any obstacles, Xiao Tian opened his eyes on time.
After filling two bottles of water, hanging a nylon rope around his waist, and carrying two packs of instant noodles, he walked to the gate with a Tang knife.
Looking out of the door from the cat's eye, he didn't find anything abnormal, he took a deep breath with his hand, gently opened the security door, and stepped out after confirming the safety through the crack in the door.
The door was closed with his hand, and the entire hallway was as silent as death......
Under the shade of black smoke, even though it was early in the morning, not a single ray of sunlight shone in.
In this pitch-black environment, Xiao Tian did not act rashly for the sake of safety, after all, human beings have an innate fear of unknown darkness.
But in the next second, Xiao Tian only glanced at it, and his eyes locked on the handrail at the staircase five or six meters away, and there was a small fly rubbing his hands on his stomach.
"Huh?!"
I couldn't help but marvel, I didn't expect my eyesight to be able to see the outline of things very clearly, and even some slight changes could be captured in an instant.
After carefully observing the left and right sides, there was no trace of zombies, and the slightly apprehensive heart was much calmer.
Leaning against the wall, he cautiously moved towards the stairs, making sure not to make any noise with each step.
Xiao Tian's location is on the twenty-sixth floor, and the top floor is on the thirty-sixth floor.
Although it is only four floors away, it gives people the feeling of being separated by eighteen floors, and if you are not careful, you will go to hell.
With a short distance of five or six meters, Xiao Tian walked for more than ten minutes.
During this period, I passed by several houses, and if I didn't pass a single house, I would listen to whether there was any abnormal movement inside.
One is to confirm whether there are any living people, in case there are survivors in the building, they must be brought over;
The second is to judge whether the people inside have become zombies.
Judging from the fact that there is no sound in each household, it can be confirmed that there are no survivors, or that they have died, and that there is no case of turning into a zombie.
Without zombies, there is no danger......
But this result still made Xiao Tian a little disappointed......
But after thinking about it, if you can sneak into it without making a sound, although opening the blind box is almost the same, maybe someone will have the resources to fill their stomachs.
Without stopping too much, Xiao Tian still leaned against the wall, stepping on the stairs step by step, making sure that he would not expose his back.
His gaze keeps changing up and down to prevent zombies from moving and becoming his blind spot.
Successfully went up to the first floor, looking at the doors of the six houses on this floor, Xiao Tian did not intend to explore, but chose to continue up.
Nothing happened during this period, and I went all the way to the top position, which was much smoother than expected......
But on the soles of Xiao Tian's feet, he just touched the ground on the top floor.
A woman's voice suddenly came to my ears: "Zombies, zombies!" I see it!! ”
In this environment, hearing such information is no different from exploding a mine.
Not daring to hesitate for a moment, Xiao Tian quickly leaned down and retreated to the steps, first narrowing his target to the extreme, and then pulling out his Tang knife to scan the surroundings vigilantly.
But after watching for a long time, no trace of zombies was found.
Just as he was wondering, a man's voice sounded in his ears again.
"Shhh!!h
His ears moved slightly, and despite the security door and heavy walls, Xiao Tian accurately captured the source of this faint sound, which was the fourth household on the top floor.
In this apocalypse, it is a joy to hear the voice of humanity.
Xiao Tian couldn't hide his excitement, and the hand holding the Tang Dao trembled.
"It's humans, and there are still humans alive in this building!!"
