Natural Disaster Apocalypse

Chapter 179:

Uncle Cai will definitely not ask Aunt Yin to do a temporary job. It’s not that he dislikes this job, but it’s too tiring, dirty and tiring. If it’s winter, he can bear it. It’s so hot now, and the indoor temperature is more than 30 degrees , Even if there is an air conditioner, I lie down sweating, and I am not too young. If it is too hot and suffers from heat stroke, it is not worthwhile.

Aunt Yin just asked, but didn't insist on going, so once Uncle Cai disagreed, she just muttered a few words and let it go.

The girl came back soon, and this time she took three white flour steamed buns and three bottles of water in her hand. When she asked about the price, the white flour steamed buns cost one yuan, which means that the water is fifty cents a bottle, but if you buy it alone Water is also one yuan, and buying two together is one yuan and five.

Listening to the prices they said, Mu Nan couldn't help shaking her head: "No matter what time of day, scenic spots are expensive."

Song Jia: "What attraction?"

Mu Nan: "Seven-day sandstorm tour attractions."

Yang Jing said: "What are you going to eat next?"

Mu Nan turned to look at Qin Huai, Qin Huai: "It hasn't been decided yet, what's the matter?"

Yang Jing: "We brought oil, but the seasoning is only salt. I saw you still had cumin and chili powder yesterday, so I wanted to say that we will lend you the gas for cooking today, and you can give us some cumin and chili powder."

Qin Huai said: "Are you going to eat baked buns?"

Yang Jing nodded: "I haven't eaten for a long time, and now I don't have any meat, so let's satisfy my hunger with steamed buns."

Mu Nan's eyes lit up, and Jian Chu also looked over after hearing the words: "You can also roast mushrooms."

Mu Nan: "Can Chinese cabbage be roasted?"

Uncle Cai coughed: "This is not an outing, you should also pay attention to the surrounding situation, don't go too far."

Everyone heard the news, the flags and drums died down, but there are still slices of steamed buns, but Mu Nan didn't bring out the steamed buns yesterday, and now when he was wondering if it would be too unreasonable to take out a bag of steamed buns from his bag, Qin Huai said: " Let's have this for lunch too, who wants steamed buns? Let's go buy some now."

Aunt Yin said: "Didn't you bring flour, oh, there is not so much steaming, forget it, it is more cost-effective to buy ready-made."

This is outside, those portable fuels are scarce, and they should be used sparingly for cooking, where there is so much to steam buns.

Jian Chu raised his hand: "We want it!" Then he turned to look at Yu Zibai: "How many do we want?"

Yu Zibai: "If you only eat steamed buns, then buy three. If you want to add something else, then buy two. Just satisfy your hunger."

Song Jia: "Then we also need two, which is exactly three yuan. If the Internet is disconnected, you can't transfer it. Mu Nan, keep the account, and I'll give it to you when the Internet comes back."

After confirming the quantity they wanted, Mu Nan and Qin Huai walked towards the cafeteria.

The subway station here was not damaged much during the earthquake. The main reason is that there were not many buildings in this area at the beginning. They were all flat land or some construction sites. There was no weight of dumping on the top, and the subsidence was not that serious, so The buildings in the subway station are only repaired on the original basis, not considered reconstruction.

Therefore, the previously reserved storefronts are now used as temporary canteens and temporary medical stations.

The cafeteria is divided into several stores. There are hot food, steamed buns and miscellaneous grains. The hot food is some fried rice and noodle soup. There are a little rehydrated freeze-dried vegetables in the rice. Drink with a sip of water, this bowl of vermicelli in clear soup can be said to be the most popular.

Mu Nan glanced at the price in the long queue over there: "It's so expensive, two yuan a bowl."

Qin Huai: "There is soup and noodles. Buy a bowl and take it home. The whole family can eat two bites. Drink some soup, and you can save water for a day."

Mu Nan didn't look any further, whether it was fried rice or noodle soup, just by looking at the color without any oil or salt, he knew how unpalatable the taste was. There are not many people selling steamed buns here, and those who have people are all lined up at the side of the multigrain steamed buns. Mu Nan and Qin Huai waited for a while before they arrived.

When they came over, they also carried a special bag, which contained two lunch boxes, one for the lunch they bought back at the moment, and the other for the lunch they took out from the space, pretending to buy Yes, put some outside.

Just as Mu Nan put the steamed buns and water into the bag, Qin Huai pulled him aside, and then a man who seemed to be a little delirious rushed over from the other side, yelling vaguely to get out, to get out , pushing away all the people in front of him while running.

There was a man who happened to be buying noodles there, and when he pushed him, he threw himself onto the noodle soup table, and the big pot of hot soup fell to the ground.

I don’t know how many people were scalded by the boiling hot soup, and screams rang out one after another. The people living here were densely packed, and if there was any movement, the whole crowd would become chaotic. Next to the noodle soup table was a table for fried rice and a pot for noodle soup. After falling down, he hit the fried rice table directly.

This noodle soup is directly poured into the soup after people come to buy it, so there is only boiling water in the noodle soup pot, but the fried rice is fried in a big pot and placed there, and it is poured in when someone comes to buy it. On the ground, the person sleeping next to him rushed over almost immediately, grabbed the food on the ground and pocketed it with his clothes.

The other people who were frightened immediately reacted, and regardless of the crazy neuropathy, they quickly lay down on the ground and joined the food grabbing army.

The whole scene was in chaos, the crazy person was still running upstairs, but someone was asleep on the stairs, and that person stepped on the sleeping person on the ground without looking, and was directly caught by the person who got up With a push, the whole person fell down from the stairs and fell heavily on the ground.

Mu Nan saw that Daniu and the others had already run over, and couldn't control those people who were grabbing food on the ground, fearing that this lunatic would make trouble again, he went straight forward and subdued the people who had fallen to the ground and hadn't gotten up yet.

Qin Huai had been protecting Mu Nan and hiding in the corner, seeing more and more people attracted by the commotion here, he dragged him upstairs.

In the past, there were people guarding the canteen. Even though the smell of food was constantly tempting people, no one dared to **** it. The guns in their hands were not for decoration.

But now an accident happened, the stall collapsed by itself, the food fell on the ground, they just grabbed it on the ground, this kind of sudden accident made people unprepared, those people who came to buy food with lunch boxes happened to have Some people put the stolen food in stuffing. Some people just squat down on the ground and stuff the food into their mouths if they don’t have anything in it.

The steamed bun stall next to it was also affected, too many people rushed over, and even took advantage of the chaos to **** the steamed bun stall that was so healthy.

Mu Nan was dragged by Qin Huai and hid on the stairs. The people who were sleeping here, because they were relatively close to the cafeteria stalls, had already swarmed over there. I ran down from upstairs, wanting to see if I could grab free food in the chaos.

Looking at the chaos in front of him, Mu Nan swallowed, it was even scarier than when the lunatic rushed over just now.

Qin Huai saw that the chaos here should not be over for a while, so he pulled Mu Nan out of the crowd, and jumped directly to the subway track. There was no one on the subway track, and they just walked back from here. So as not to squeeze through the crowd and be bumped into.

Mu Nan patted his chest: "I'm scared to death. I don't think it's any safer down here than outside. This time I was robbed by accident. Then if someone gathers to premeditately rob me next time, wouldn't it be fatal?"

Qin Huai: "Probably not for the time being. Now they are all trapped below. The sandstorm outside cannot pass, and the gates of the subway station cannot be opened. It is also very dangerous to go out in the yellow sand, so no one will intentionally do something to **** food. , and those who can enter the subway station here are all residents of the second, third and fourth districts. If it is an outer city, or some later districts, it is still possible, today this is just an accident."

There are no lights on the subway track, only a little light projected from the platform. Qin Huai turned on the light on his mobile phone. There are stones and rails underneath, so as not to accidentally fall.

Mu Nan was followed by Qin Huai, and suddenly whispered, "Brother, they just robbed a lot of steamed buns."

Qin Huai hummed.

Mu Nan said again: "Should we bring out a few more, saying they were snatched?"

As for the matter of a few steamed buns, it is actually unnecessary, none of them are short of this, but seeing that Mu Nan always wants to help his friends, Qin Huai will naturally not refuse such a small matter, and just reminded: " Tell them secretly, don't talk about the Cai family and the girls, don't take too much, and now the steamed buns can't be kept for too long."

Mu Nan nodded, thought for a while, and took out eight of them. They were all big steamed buns they made at home before, and they looked similar to the ones they bought just now. Mu Nan also sighed: "Look at what we made. The ones they machine made are almost round."

Qin Huai smiled: "Don't even think about it, how many steamed buns we made in those few months."

Speaking of buns, Mu Nan said: "Brother, do you want to take this opportunity to eat two buns? Otherwise, it will be very difficult for us to find the opportunity to eat meat."

Qin Huai turned to look at him: "Do you want to eat buns?"

Mu Nan shook her head again and again: "It's not me, it's you."

Qin Huai: "No need, you are optimistic about whether you are taking out steamed buns or steamed buns. We made steamed buns in the shape of steamed buns before. If you mix them up, it won't work."

Mu Nan rolled his eyes behind Qin Huai's back. Is he that stupid? He has put away all the food by category, but thinking about it, he opened the bag and took a closer look. He was sure it was steamed buns. Then he pulled Qin Huai to quicken his pace: "Hurry up, hurry up, there's a commotion over there, we haven't gone back for a long time, so why worry?"

Jian Chu and the others were really worried. There was a situation over there. Although they were a little far apart, one was at the station head and the other was at the end of the station, but they were both on the same floor, so if there was any movement, they would know about it soon, but what they knew was not It's very clear, I just heard that there was a commotion in the cafeteria, and some people were rushing for food.

Thinking that Mu Nan and Qin Huai should have arrived at the cafeteria at that time, and they haven't returned yet, it's worrying.

Just when Yu Zibai and Wu Zheng were about to go over to check the situation, they heard Mu Nan's voice: "Give me a hand."

The distance between the platform and the track is still a bit high. Standing under the track, the platform is almost as high as your chest. If you want to climb up, it will be easier for someone to pull you.

Jian Chu quickly ran over: "Why did you come back from here? What happened there just now? I think many people ran over." Mu Nan: "Just now there was a person with mental problems who wanted to go out , knocked down the stalls in the cafeteria in a rampage, and all the food fell to the ground, and the surrounding people rushed over to grab it. It was frightening and crazy. Fortunately, we were standing in a relatively If you are stuck in the middle of the corner, you will be trampled if you are not injured."

Jian Chu took the bag from Mu Nan's hand, and saw that the quantity inside was wrong, it was not the quantity they had agreed upon at all, and it was assumed that Qin Huai and the others had bought more.

As a result, Mu Nan pulled Jian Chu and said in a low voice: "It was snatched secretly, don't say anything, just treat it as ours, otherwise if someone finds out who stole the food later, it will be bad. "

Jian Chu was startled immediately: "Fuck! Fuck! You two!"

Song Jia saw the two of them whispering to each other here, so she also came over: "What are you talking about?"

Jian Chu grabbed Song Jia's neck: "Sit down, sit down."

Since you want to secretly carry people behind your back, you can't whisper small things in front of others, otherwise it will be too conspicuous, so Jian Chu put the steamed buns directly on the mat, covered them with a small blanket, and then used the mobile phone Type it for Song Jia to read.

Song Jia was also shocked. Although it was just a few steamed buns, it was still money. How could it not make people happy to have enough food for a whole day for nothing.

But this is not something that can be publicized, so they can only be secretly happy.

Because Cai Wentao is in the Self-Defense Forces, the people in the Cai family are very sensitive to some movements, and they are afraid that something will happen somewhere, so if there is such a big commotion over there, the people in the Cai family will be scared to death. Looking at her parents, Uncle Cai and Aunt Yin have already gone to see the situation.

Seeing Qin Huai and the others come back at this moment, they hurriedly dragged Qin Huai to ask about the situation, which just distracted their attention from whispering to Mu Nan.

After a while, some spectators came back, and their words were full of gloating and regret.

"If I knew I should have gone there just now, I was still debating whether I should go and buy some food to get rid of it. It's not expensive anyway. You can eat for a day for one or two yuan, hey."

"I heard that many people emptied the fried rice. There were vegetables and diced potatoes in the rice."

"It's not worth getting injured for one bite. It seems that two men got into a fight over a steamed bun, and their teeth were knocked out. As a result, the Self-Defense Forces came and controlled the situation, and the steamed bun was not taken."

"It's better to live near the cafeteria. They seem to have robbed a lot."

"What's so good, there was a pregnant woman who was sleeping nearby, and she didn't try to grab it, but was hit by a crowded person, and her leg bleeds, and now she has a miscarriage. !"

Although Mu Nan and the others were sitting in the corner, their voices were quite loud over there, and they could hear them clearly here.

Song Jia frowned and said, "Is it so serious over there?"

Mu Nan shook his head: "I didn't see blood when my brother and I left, so I don't know about it later."

Jian Chu breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, you guys ran fast."

But listening to their discussion, the steamed buns that came for nothing suddenly became less happy.

The few people were quiet for a while, and finally Song Jia couldn't hold back: "The baked buns, do you still want to eat?"

Jian Chu glanced at the noisy direction: "Although it's just a steamed bun, but baked with cumin, wouldn't it be too ostentatious?"

After all, there seems to be a river of blood now.

Mu Nan: "You can leave the steamed buns, or else eat them tomorrow?"

When they were discussing, the girl probably didn't see the scene, but just heard about it, so she had no scruples, looked at the time, and came over to ask them: "Do you want to bake together?"

The three looked at each other and nodded in unison: "Yes!"

What to leave tomorrow, let's talk about it after today.

Mu Nan didn't use the fuel of a few girls, but the seasoning can't be given for free, so I used labor as a substitute. The three of them lay on the mat like uncles, and the three girls squatted on the subway tracks, holding the steamed buns with their chopsticks. There is no way to roast slices, and the conditions are limited. In order to satisfy the gluttony, it can only be a little more troublesome.

Wu Zheng turned on another stove, and directly stuffed a pot of rice with that small milk pot. They still had some mushrooms, and Mu Nan had some Chinese cabbage. Served with sliced ??steamed buns, this meal is very filling.

The Cai family is much simpler. They brought noodles with them when they came, and they cut the noodles with a knife. They were made by Aunt Yin. Counting Cai Wentao's mid-break time, they also started cooking noodles in a hot pot.

Although there was a murder in the cafeteria because of a mentally disturbed person, the murder did not happen in front of us. After years of major incidents, the people who have survived have long since calmed down, so they should eat and sleep My sleep was not affected at all.

Those who hid in the subway station with the government, apart from the occasional rumbling outside, probably because there were many people around and the government guards were there, so they didn't panic at all.

But not everyone acted immediately after the government's notice. Some people thought it was a sandstorm and just hid at home and closed the doors and windows.

When the yellow sand swept across the sky and the doomsday scene that covered the sky and the sun happened in an instant, it was too late for those who did not follow the government's notice to gather for refuge.

The inland areas have never experienced this kind of sandstorm, and even slightly severe smog days are rare. Looking at the yellow sand rolling in with the raging wind, many people feel that this time they may really be unable to escape passed.

Some people were relatively close to some neighborhood committees, so when others were still evacuating, they heard the loudspeaker constantly playing that the nearest evacuation point was the subway station.

So these people decided to give it a go, quickly packed up their things and ran to the subway station.

It's a pity that the gates of the subway station have already been pulled. The gates of today's subway stations are not the rolling shutter doors of the past, but very thick and heavy steel doors that cannot be opened by manpower once closed.

Those who managed to get to the gate of the subway station, no matter how much they slapped and shouted, they couldn’t hear a single sound from inside. The gates were too thick. Only when those people saw the gates of the subway station did they realize why the government evacuated directly to the subway station. Not to mention sandstorms, as far as the sealing of the gate is concerned, it can withstand another flood. This is basically a local underground refuge built to prevent various disasters.

They regretted it. They never thought that the subway station, which had never been opened, turned out to be such a place of refuge. If they had known that this was the case, they would have obeyed the government's arrangement to evacuate.

But it was too late to regret. Seeing the Kuangsha close at hand, those people who managed to get to the subway station immediately turned around and wanted to run home. No matter what, it is definitely better to stay indoors in this situation now. Safe outside.

It's a pity that they really underestimated the sandstorm this time. People hadn't run two steps. When the sandstorm came, they discovered that there was a whirlwind in the middle of the sandstorm. Like a dismantled building block, it was instantly rolled into the sky.

The people who held hands against the strong wind one second and ran towards the house disappeared in the rolling yellow sand in the next second. Someone in front tried to shake off the hands of the person behind them, fearing that they would be taken away like a carrot, but people No matter how fast the speed is, wherever it is faster than the wind speed, the figure will be submerged almost instantly.

Some people desperately grabbed and hugged all the buildings they could touch, but this strong storm could even uproot big trees. Although there are no trees now, it is not a lamp post or even a stone pier that can resist it. All struggles are in vain.

Some people hid at home and saw that some people who ran out were blown into the sky almost instantly and fell into a whirlwind. Once they were blown away, there was no life left. They were so frightened that they found everything that could block the doors and windows things, even hiding in closets, under beds, and binding themselves to heavy objects in the house.

Those living on the fourth and fifth floors also ran out of their homes one after another, hiding downstairs, hiding in the stairwell, and hiding in the homes of low floors, because they saw that the roofs of many high floors were directly covered by the sandstorm. The wind twisted into slag.

The first wave of strong wind passed, and there was a long wave of yellow sand and dust as far as the eyes could see. The movement outside gradually became quieter, but those who survived by chance did not dare to go out at will. They didn’t know if this wave of strong wind was over. As soon as I went outside, there was another strong wind, and it was really impossible to run.

But those who survived the first wave of strong winds are faced with the difficult problem of survival again. There is food at home, but what about water? With such a big sandstorm and strong winds that even blow up houses, those water stations may have been destroyed long ago. It's scum.

Some people ventured to check the water station, but no miracle happened. The water station was destroyed, which meant that before the refugees came back, they had to keep looking for water and food in addition to avoiding the sandstorm. to survive.
