Chapter 19: Power outage

"Knock knock—"

The next morning, while Wang Tao was still asleep, he heard a gentle knock on the door outside.

He woke up instantly, quickly took the steel pipe to the door, looked at the cat's eye, and found that it was Ding Yuqin.

Ding Yuqin's face was a little flustered, but it didn't look like she was injured.

Wang Tao opened the door.

"What's wrong, sister-in-law?"

"Wang Tao, there's a power outage! There was just a power outage! ”

Ding Yuqin's voice carried a hint of crying.

"There's a power outage? Don't panic, let's talk about it first. ”

After Wang Tao let her in, he pressed the light switch in the living room at the door, but there was no response. He went out again to check the meter, and it didn't trip.

Sure enough, it's time to come!

When Wang Tao found that all the network signals were gone, he already had a premonition that there was going to be a power outage, but when this day really came, he was still a little sad.

He is sad not about the power outage itself, but about the meaning behind it - the government is likely to be completely out of control, and rescue may never come!

To be honest, even if Wang Tao feels that he has the ability to survive in the last days, he definitely still hopes to be rescued.

After all, people are social creatures, and it may be a pleasure to be lonely once in a while, but if you are lonely for a lifetime, I am afraid that sooner or later you will go crazy.

And an orderly society is certainly better than disorder. With the exception of a few people, most people prefer to live in a peaceful society.

Ding Yuqin obviously understands these things, which is why he is so flustered.

But it's useless to talk about it now, it's important to live in the moment.

Wang Tao comforted Ding Yuqin:

"We're pretty good here, but when the virus broke out, there was no power in many places. Maybe it's because of the hydroelectric power we use here that we can last for seven days, and we still earn it! ”

This comfort was obviously of little use to Ding Yuqin.

Because for her, waiting for the government to rescue is her belief in survival. If there is no rescue, how can she, a weak woman, survive in the last days......

Ding Yuqin's expression was a little frightened and dazed.

Wang Tao suddenly spoke:

"Sister-in-law, you go to my room and help me see if my power banks have power."

When he searched other rooms before, the power banks he found were already fully charged. Let Ding Yuqin check it out, which can be regarded as diverting her attention.

"Huh? Good! ”

Ding Yuqin subconsciously agreed, but when she entered the room, she suddenly turned her head to look at Wang Tao, and there was a hint of hope in her eyes.

She is not alone now, and she has a chance to survive - if Wang Tao is willing to help her......

Wang Tao came to the corner of the living room, where the outdoor power supply that was looted before was placed to charge.

He looked at it, and it was already fully charged.

Those small power banks are of little use to Wang Tao for the time being. But this "big power bank" is very useful - it can power the refrigerator to ensure that the food in his refrigerator will not spoil.

His Xiaoice box does not consume much electricity, and it may consume more than half a kilowatt-hour of electricity a day. And this outdoor power supply has five kilowatt-hours of electricity, and it should not be a big problem to use for a week, and it can be emergency for the time being.

But what to do after that...... He had a diesel generator downstairs, but he didn't have diesel.

"I'm going to go and find supplies!"

Wang Tao frowned.

The nearest gas station seems to be two or three kilometers away.

If you drive, it can be a few minutes away. But the car has noise, which will definitely attract zombies.

And whether the road is good or not is also a problem, he doesn't know where else, but just outside the street, there are cars parked everywhere, zombies, and even collapsed buildings. In this case, you can't drive at all.

It's a bit far away if you walk. There are so many zombies along the way, it's easy to go and never return......

As for electric motorcycles and bicycles, maybe one way to go. They are relatively quiet, have lower road requirements than cars, and also have a certain speed.

But this is meat wrapped in iron, and if you are surrounded by zombies, there will only be one death.

And he doesn't have an electric car. When the apocalypse broke out, it was a working day, and the workers all rode electric cars to work, and I don't know if there are any ...... downstairs

Wait a minute!

Wang Tao suddenly remembered that before the end of the world, he saw Boss Li in the small restaurant downstairs carrying a bucket of diesel fuel to fuel his car, and his car was a diesel pickup truck!

"Perhaps, you don't have to run that far!"

Wang Tao's mood was a little excited.

He decided to wait until all the zombies in the building were cleaned up, and then go to the small restaurant to have a look.

It's best if he has diesel, and if not, he can also replenish a wave of supplies, and he won't run in vain......

"Wang Tao, the power banks are fully charged!"

Ding Yuqin came out with a bunch of power banks.

"Hmm." Wang Tao nodded, and then suddenly seemed to think of something, and hurriedly went to the bathroom to turn on the faucet.

Whoa—

There is still water for the time being, but it may stop at some point.

"I guess the water will stop soon, you go out with me and fill all the containers in the other rooms with water!"

His own house had already started to store water, but the other rooms he had searched hadn't.

Water is the source of life, you can make do without electricity, and you really can't live without water.

"Huh? Good! ”

Ding Yuqin nodded a little nervously.

After the end of the world came, she walked the farthest distance, which was to come to Wang Tao's house.

Although the zombies in the corridor have been solved by Wang Tao, she is still a little scared.

Wang Tao took out a few packets of dry noodles and threw a pack of Ding Yuqin.

"I don't have time to make breakfast, make do. That's not your reward for today. ”

Later, I will have to let my sister-in-law work, and give her some energy first.

"Thank you, thank you!"

Ding Yuqin hurriedly thanked him.

After the two of them took a few mouthfuls of boiling water, Wang Tao began to wear equipment.

Although the building is safe for the time being, after all, there are still a few rooms where the zombies have not been cleaned up, so you can't be careless.

Since the books on his body, arms, and calves all need to be wrapped with duct tape, one is slower to wear. Seeing this, Ding Yuqin hurriedly came over to help.

In the process of wearing, Ding Yuqin inevitably touched the muscles on Wang Tao's body, and was suddenly stunned.

It's big, it's hard......

Is this really what people can build muscles?

Ding Yuqin didn't like muscular men before, especially Wang Tao has a terrifying scar on his face, which looks like a villain on TV, which makes people feel frightened.

But now, looking at Wang Tao's tall and burly figure standing beside her, feeling the heat slightly emanating from Wang Tao's body, she suddenly had an indescribable sense of security!

This sense of security, she has never felt in other men, including her husband......

"What's wrong?"

Wang Tao saw that Ding Yuqin had been staring at him, and said a little strangely.

"Ah, it's okay, it's okay!"

Ding Yuqin's face was a little hot, and he hurriedly looked away.

"Then let's go upstairs to 602 first. Then go to 301 and 201 ......"

"Good!"
