Chapter 190: Corrosion (Part II)
The person at the door couldn't bear to continue looking, so he simply turned around and sat on the ground quietly without speaking.
The electric lights on the side of the road also seem to have corroded and started to flicker on and off.
"Smack!"
The street lights went out completely.
It was dark outside.
There was no other sound in the whole world except the crackling rain.
Fortunately, the lights in the supermarket were not affected.
No one spoke.
Lin Wanqiao sat on the ground in a daze with her calves in her arms.
This acid rain fell too suddenly, I don't know if Shen Shaoyu and they have found a place to hide.
In case of......
She didn't dare to think about it anymore, so she could only bury her head between her legs, and a slight tremor betrayed her mood at the moment.
More than five hours have passed.
Everyone was sitting on the ground and staggering, and some people were already snoring.
Lin Wanqiao remembered that the first acid rain in her previous life lasted for three days before it stopped.
She glanced at the crowd around her and quietly retreated into the corner.
There was water in the backpack, and she didn't dare to take it out, so she could only use the cuffs to cover it up and take small sips with the cap of the bottle.
Acid rain for 12 hours.
The rain didn't tend to go down at all, and the choking smell made her airways very uncomfortable.
Acid rain 24 hours.
The rain was still pouring outside. The accumulated rainwater poured down the slope into the sewer, mixing with the contents of the sewer and emitting a foul smell.
The people hiding under the eaves outside couldn't wait any longer, and they tapped on the doors of the other residents behind them, begging to let them in, but none of the doors were opened.
Acid rain for 36 hours.
The corpse at the light visible position at the entrance of the supermarket was left with only a skeleton.
Acid rain for 48 hours.
The people in the supermarket couldn't bear their hunger and thirst, so they smashed open the work window, and behind it was a space of only more than twenty square meters, with five or six shelves. Because there are not many people who consume on weekdays, there is only a small amount of water and food on the shelves, as well as some daily necessities, and the warehouse is not here.
People were disappointed.
There are more monks and less porridge.
For the pitiful amount of food on the shelves, there was a big fight between the people in the supermarket.
Lin Wanqiao could only stay as far away from the center of the battle as possible, sitting silently against the wall, one hand in his arms at all times, and a dagger was placed there. When you are hungry, you quietly break a small piece of compressed biscuit and put it in your mouth, and let it slowly melt into your mouth by itself.
When the food was swallowed in her mouth, her throat was burning with pain, and her lips were pale and there was already a layer of skin on them.
The winner gets food, and the loser can only drag his broken body and continue to lie down.
Acid rain for 60 hours.
"Here you go."
She turned around and was the one who forcibly dragged her into the supermarket.
Zhong Liang handed Lin Wanqiao a small piece of tortilla, only the size of a baby's palm.
Lin Wanqiao hesitated, the other party thought she was embarrassed, and directly stuffed it into her hand, and whispered: "Hurry up and eat, don't be seen." "This is what he just picked up while the group was fighting.
When he saw that the little girl he had brought in had been coughing, and that her whole person was as weak as a porcelain doll, he immediately felt pity and split his food in two.
Lin Wanqiao thanked her and took it.
Acid rain for 72 hours.
Lin Wanqiao's head was dizzy.
She had been staring at her watch, and the three days were coming soon.
She thought that the rain would stop, but she didn't expect three days, one hour, and two hours...... The hour hand moves little by little, and there is no intention of stopping outside.
What's going on.
The people in the supermarket are starting to despair.
"It's not going to rain like this all the time." They don't think it's impossible, after all, in the previous year, so many things that go against common sense have happened, and no more of this one seems to be unexpected.
"I'm dying of thirst, whoever has water, give me a sip, just take a sip." Dehydration is more deadly than starvation.
No one responded.
The little food that the supermarket stock has long since been eaten up.
Zhong Liang simply sat down beside her.
He looked at Lin Wanqiao's burnt red cheeks and touched her forehead with the back of his hand.
"You have a fever."
Lin Wanqiao was so weak that she didn't have the strength to respond to him.
Zhong Liang himself was not much better, and the dehydration made his lips have a circle of dead skin.
Lin Wanqiao held on and quietly stuffed a small bottle of water into his arms.
"You ......" Zhong Liang saw the small half bottle of water in his arms, first surprised, then frowned, and was about to stuff it back into her.
"Drink, I'll have it." Her voice was hoarse, and she slurred this sentence and fell into a stupor.
Acid rain for 84 hours.
Thankfully, the rain outside finally faded away.
Lin Wanqiao fell into a coma intermittently, and woke up worried.
If you don't stop, you may have to wear the roof overhead. But you shouldn't worry too much, the roofs of the villas are all glassed, and they should have been treated here.
Shen Shaoyu and Grandpa don't know what happened, and Grandma, are they frightened when they are alone at home these days.
She opened her heavy eyelids and looked outside, it was still pitch black.
Acid rain for 96 hours.
"The rain seems to be running out!"
Someone suddenly exclaimed.
Lin Wanqiao was instantly awakened by this sound.
"The rain has stopped?"
In the dark, I couldn't hear the sound of the rain, but it didn't stop completely, and I could still hear the sound of ticking on the ground.
The people under the eaves on the opposite side also found out.
He probed his brain and observed it for a long time.
Hunger and a dry and smoking throat made him make a decision.
"Grass! It's out. ”
With great difficulty, he lifted a tin door that had been thrown under the porch of the doorway, and put it on his head, holding it in one hand and the handle with the other.
Take the first step carefully.
Step 2.
Step 3.
The raindrops were all blocked by the tin door.
He was ecstatic and walked briskly through the rain.
When the people in the supermarket saw that his method worked, they also saw hope, and they looked around for shelter to follow suit.
Soon, the supermarket propaganda stands, glass windows, tin shelves, chairs......
Everything that could cover the body was removed.
A new round of scramble has begun.
Someone rushed into the rain as soon as they grabbed it, for fear that someone would snatch it away too late.
One after another, more than twenty people in the supermarket ran.
The rest could only stare at them.
However, those who escaped were not happy for long before something new happened.
After several days of rain, the drainage system could not keep up, and the potholed ground, which had long been corroded, accumulated puddles of water.
Even the ground, which is not waterlogged, has water stains.
The soles of their shoes are quickly corroded away!
"Ah, my feet!"
In the dark, someone panicked and stepped into a puddle.
"Ahh
"Help!"
Of the more than 20 people who escaped, only five or six returned.
Without exception, although a life was picked up, the foot was wasted.
