food crisis [end times]

The drought has added a bit of despair to the originally barren world.

Mushrooms have very low requirements on the environment, as long as the temperature is suitable, they do not need sunlight or delicate care.

There is only one most critical condition, and that is the need for a lot of water.

It is common sense that children know that mushrooms only grow in warm and humid places.

Drought and declining well water have made the villagers who have just started to rely on mushrooms extremely sensitive.

The villagers tried their best to store water, and some even spread plastic sheets in the cellar and filled it with water.

Water is the source of life, and it is also a source of wealth for the villagers.

But the increasingly severe drought still makes people very pessimistic.

But the progress of the drought was quickly distracted.

Rat infestation has become more and more frequent recently.There is nothing edible on the earth.No one knows how the mice survived.

But more importantly, these rats are full of rancid smell, and the wounds will quickly turn black after biting.

People in the village should not be too clear about what the wound turns black.

When the first zombie of the year appeared in the village, the whole village once again fell into panic.

I thought that when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, and no one will eat moldy food, nothing will happen.

But the truth taught everyone a lesson.

The second, the third, the fourth.

Until the appearance of the sixth zombie, a total of 12 casualties had been caused, and the People's Liberation Army could no longer sit still.

After the village was bitten by rats, only a few people came to ask the People's Liberation Army for help, and the rest insisted on luck. The whole family did not believe that they would really become zombies until the moment they became zombies.

This is definitely not the way.

The People's Liberation Army selected two women from the women who took part in the guards and knocked on the doors of each house to check. Everyone had to strip naked to see if there were any bites or unexplained wounds on their bodies.If it is a lesbian, let the female team members come.

And all the injured people were also concentrated in the village committee, and they were shot on the spot once the corpse turned into a corpse.

This is the only way to protect the entire village.

After the catastrophe of last year, the people in the village cooperated very much with this action.

But the people who were checked out tried their best to make sophistry, and also wanted to be isolated in their own homes.

But in the face of the insistence of iron and blood wrists, he can only accept his fate.

Another scene of life and death.

Because of the existence of zombie rats, every household stayed behind closed doors again, for fear of becoming the next victim.There is a rare hoarding of bacteria bags, and no one dares to buy them.

Check from house to house, this time from the middle of the village and slowly look out.Xiang Luo's family is at the very edge, naturally at the end.

Xiang Luo received the notice in advance, and the whole family did nothing, waiting for someone to come to check.

When you hear the siren, you know the People's Liberation Army is coming.Xiang Luo turned off the siren, went out to open the door, and saw the little soldier's expression of embarrassment.

"You are Mr. Xiang, right? May I ask if you have been in contact with this family who lives on the left of your house recently? We knocked on the door for a long time but they didn't open it."

Xiang Luo glanced at the neighbor, and several people were at the door.

"No one scolded you inside?" Xiang Luo asked strangely.

The little soldier shook his head: "Not at all."

This is rather strange.

Xiang Luo explained: "Their family is not easy to get along with, and they don't usually communicate with others. Usually, anyone who dares to knock on the door will be scolded. I haven't seen their family much since last year."

The little soldier's complexion changed: "There will be no accident!"

Xiang Luo really felt that something was wrong with their family.But you can't say it directly.Otherwise, knowing that something might happen to their family and not reporting it, it is not good to speak out.

He just shook his head and said, "I don't know about that. But you can take a ladder from my house and climb up to have a look."

The little soldier nodded, Xiang Luo turned over the ladder and set it up, the little soldier climbed up to the high wall to take a look, at first he glanced at it casually, but soon he saw something, and he was stunned there .

After a while, the little soldier came down slowly, with an extremely serious expression on his face.

"Sir, please tell me in detail when was the last time you heard a voice from the neighbor!"

Sure enough something happened!

Xiang Luo frowned, thought about it seriously, and said, "To tell you the truth, my house is soundproofed. As long as the door is closed, you may not be able to hear screaming in my yard. Because I am afraid of noise." , I would not be able to sleep if the birds were calling outside. So even if there was a sound next door, I might not be able to hear it. The last time my family knew what was going on there was years ago. It seems to be when I asked people about the situation from house to house.

That house scolded people away.His family doesn't interact with people usually, and the whole family likes to choke with people. After a long time, the neighbors and neighbors dislike him.Moreover, their family has never felt that anyone is kind, and if they are kind, they will scold them head-on, so no one will get this bad luck.If you don't believe me, ask, they probably haven't paid attention to their house for a long time. "

If it is a city, it is normal for the neighbors on the left and right to not know anything about it. After all, the pace of life in the city is fast, and few people are willing to stop and look around.But the countryside is different, there are only a few families in total, and if they have a good relationship with each other, life can be prosperous.It is a miracle in the countryside to pass through the gate of death and not communicate with others.

After all, for a deserted person like Xiang Luo, some basic social interactions are inevitable.

The little soldier fell into deep thought, and Xiang Luo asked, "What happened?"

The little soldier hesitated a little, Xiang Luo said: "Don't worry, I've seen everything."

The little soldier said: "Skeleton. I saw a skeleton lying in the yard, and it was incomplete."

Xiang Luo's body trembled, this is next door, a white bone, whether it was eaten or dust returned to dust...

no one knows.

It's just that when I think of such a scene separated by a wall, my scalp feels numb.

Xiang Luo looked serious, and the little soldier said: "That's why I asked if your family heard the situation. Then someone in his family must know."

Xiang Luodao: "His family was taken away before, that is, when the zombies first started. Up to now, we still have an old lady with a pair of grandchildren. I heard that others were fine and talked about what happened to their family. How much food is left in reserve, and it has not come out for such a long time."

The little soldier asked again: "None of you ever doubted safety?"

Xiang Luo smiled wryly: "Who doesn't live in different families now? Even if you manage other people's families, it should be a courtesy to support each other. Their family only knows to take advantage of others, and they will stamp their feet and curse at the street if they bother their family a little bit. Previously, the neighbors heard shouts from their house and suspected it was screams. They knocked on the door to ask about the situation. They didn't open the door, and they scolded their heads and faces. You said that you are a good person, how could you bear this? "

What he said made sense, and the little soldier could see that Xiang Luo wanted to clean himself up.

There was no embarrassment, and I went back to break through the main entrance with my two comrades in arms.There is probably no one alive in this house, so I just broke the door and went in to prevent future troubles.

The female team members who were traveling with me heard that there were bones over there, and their faces turned pale with fright.Anwei was a little curious, wondering what the neighbor who had been a neighbor for half a year looked like.

He asked Xiang Luo, "Should we go and have a look?"

Xiang Luo asked back, "Is there anything to see?"

Anwei scratched his head: "At least let's see what happens to the neighbors."

"That's none of our business." Xiang Luo raised his head and met Zhu Yan's eyes.

The two looked at each other, and Zhu Yan nodded to Xiang Luo.

It seems to have thought of a piece.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yan patted Anwei on the shoulder: "That Xiang Luo, take care of the house, we two brothers will go and have a look."

"..."

Xiang Luo, who stayed at home for no reason, had a peek at a lesbian.

The girl was still a little shy, she lowered her head and said nothing.

Xiang Luo poured him a cup of hot water.No matter how hot the day is, I only drink hot water.Because I said that super fungus can also be infected in the water, and the cool white may be infected after a period of time, so it is better to drink it while it is hot.

The little girl looked left and right to see if there was no one at home, feeling a little embarrassed, she took the initiative to find a topic and said, "You are quite busy."

Xiang Luo nodded: "It's a bit."

"Hmm... what are you busy with?"

"Make fungus packs."

"...I made a lot of money."

"good."

"Don't do anything else?"

"Eat and sleep."

……

After chatting awkwardly for a few words, they realized that they really had nothing to talk about.

The girl simply bowed her head and remained silent.

After a while, Zhu Yan and An Wei came back.

An Wei patted his chest as soon as he entered the room: "It's so scary!"

Xiang Luo glanced at the girl and then at Anwei, signaling him not to talk nonsense.

An Wei was promoted immediately, and only smiled kindly at the girl.

The girl understood, got up and went out first.

After all, no one knows how well the girl accepts scary things. After all, she dare not go to see it, so don't scare people.

When the people left, An Wei said: "The bones in the yard are from that old lady. There are teeth marks on the bones, and they were gnawed clean! It's the boy who turned into a zombie, and he can still move! It's very weak, and his body is weak. She was about to die, but she was dealt with by a soldier with a knife, and then she rummaged through the box and found the girl in a big wardrobe. She was a mummified corpse! It should be because her brother locked her in the closet and didn’t dare to come out, so she was hungry afterward Died. It must have happened very early last year. It’s just that his family can’t behave, and there are many people in the neighborhood. It’s been so long since the accident happened, and the soldiers only found out when they went door-to-door.”

Xiang Luo's scalp felt numb just hearing his simple description.

Just this alone, you can understand how tragic it is.

But it was because the old and the young in their family didn't like to communicate with others, and they were evil to others, so when something happened, no one reached out to help.

No one knows how desperate they are when they face desperation.

Even, it was not discovered until long after death.

Is their family's behavior really correct?

As an outsider, Xiang Luo couldn't judge others.

Just hearing this, I was a little sad.

Zhu Yan thought about what happened last year, and briefly analyzed it: "Do you still remember hearing the screams at this time last year, when people from the village committee came to inquire, and they were finally scolded and left?"

Xiang Luo raised his eyebrows, of course he remembered this.After all, that's all that happened after the end of the world, and it's not complicated.Xiang Luo is not a fool, there is no need to forget what happened last year.

"how?"

"I think, it should be that the little grandson of their family turned into a zombie. He started to attack people, so people screamed in fright. There was a hole drilled in an empty cabinet in their house, which should be used for ventilation. Later, the grandma should put the little grandson The grandson was locked in a cabinet. Because the family members were taken away before and never came back, so I don’t want my grandson to be taken away again, what if I can be rescued in the future?”

This logic is very smooth, Xiang Luo nodded: "And then?"

Zhu Yan continued: "Then, maybe as time passed, the zombies began to weaken. Maybe grandma thought he was going to be better. Or he broke the cabinet and came out. Maybe it was because of panic, maybe it was to protect the granddaughter, She ran to the yard and was chased by zombies and eaten alive. Then the little granddaughter locked herself in a cabinet. There was no water or food in the cabinet, but she didn’t have the guts to close the door. So she starved to death.”

Anwei shuddered: "You seem to have seen it."

If the simple picture is okay, but when Zhu Yan said this, it was as if he was on the scene.

Uh... kind of gross.

Xiang Luo said: "No matter what, at least it was discovered and the zombies were eliminated. It is equivalent to avoiding a thunderstorm."

"You should be lucky." Xiang Luo said, "I'm glad that kid can't climb the wall, otherwise he would be the first neighbor to suffer."

Xiang Luo also had a cold war.He is not afraid, but Zhu Yan lives in his yard!This is coming in and out, what if one is undefended?The consequences could be disastrous.

Zhu Yan continued: "You should also be thankful that zombies will be frozen in winter. Otherwise, even a child can easily crawl over such high snow."

Xiang Luo darkened his forehead: "Stop talking."

In the end it didn't happen.If it really happened, Xiang Luo probably wouldn't be able to forgive himself.

I originally thought that the walls were tall and thick and absolutely safe.But I didn't expect heavy snow.

Moreover, life has been quite comfortable in the past few months, and Xiang Luo can't even guarantee that if he encounters a zombie again, whether he can solve it directly without changing his face like before.

The happier the ordinary life is, the more reluctant to break it.

In fact, plain and light is really very happy.

This matter was immediately spread, and it became a hot topic in the whole village.Many people looked around outside the house next door, but few dared to go in.The village is very taboo about this. Although many people have died before, it is the only one that is as terrifying as his family.

After all, it is unlucky.

However, the problem of rat bites still exists.So, in hot weather, everyone wears sturdy trousers, even cotton trousers, and boots to go out.

Some people feel that the house is not safe, and they are afraid of mice burrowing in. They have to check the inside and outside of the house several times a day, and then listen to the sound of mice burrowing in the house.

Xiang Luo's family doesn't need to worry about this problem for the time being. Xiang Luo's family also has special jackets and pants for going up the mountain. As long as the trouser legs are tucked in well, the mouse will not be able to bite them when it is cold.And light and breathable.Although it is still very hot to wear in summer, it is still acceptable.

The commotion was too fierce, so Xiang Luo simply told Li Baoguo who was diagonally across the door to suspend the sales.I also told the village head, and asked the village head to help tell the whole village with a loudspeaker that the sale of mushroom packs was suspended.

Rats cross the street, but because of the spread of zombie virus, everyone stays away.

However, no matter how big the mice in the north are, they only weigh one or two catties, and most of them are small mice with long fingers.It may be because there is too little food, most of them starve to death before they grow up, some become zombies after death, and some zombie viruses are still in the incubation period, and they start to bite people everywhere.

When the whole village has been suffering for a long time, a wave of animal zombies broke out again!

Just like what Zhu Yan predicted last year.People are easy to control, and domestic zombies are even easier to control.The country has a very strict epidemic prevention and disease control physique, and it is absolutely possible to minimize the loss of human life and property in the shortest time!

But animals are disobedient!And wild animals are out of control!

One can only pray that they will all starve to death due to food shortages.But when countless mutated animals came out of the mountains and attacked humans, all people could do was hide!

Hide if you can!

This is another brutal battle between man and the world!

A few days later, it was found that the mutated animals did not decrease in the slightest.

People who have had enough of being cooped up at home can no longer stand being locked up like this.

They have seen the dawn of life from mushrooms.There have been bright days, and the dark and oppressive days are even more difficult.

Some people began to venture to the village committee or find soldiers to discuss how to deal with it!

Then, under the mobilization of the village committee and soldiers, every household sent out a man to join the metamorphosis!With the People's Liberation Army taking the lead, the first step is to dig a lot of traps and obstacles around the village!

This one is probably the dumbest, but it works.

I have made traps before, and have surrounded many zombie animals. Now, I want all the surrounding places to be equipped with various deadly traps and write down signs!Humans can see it, but mutated animals cannot read!

Only Xiang Luo came out of Xiang Luo's family.Zhu Yan deliberately stuffed a lot of cotton around his ankles, so that even if he was bitten, he would not be able to bite the meat at all, not to mention that the clothes were indestructible.Although it is hotter this way, safety is important.

In this way, Xiang Luo went out to work for ten hours every day, and his legs were very heavy when he returned home.As soon as the pants were taken off, the water flowed down directly.Grabbing a handful of cotton stuffed inside, the cotton was completely soaked in sweat, and the ground was covered with water as soon as I tried hard.

When Zhu Yan watched it for the first time, he felt very distressed.Although he didn't say anything, he specially cooked something delicious for Xiang Luo that night.

After half a month, Zhu Yan had already adapted.

Both Zhu Yan and Comfort thought about switching shifts with Xiang Luo.But Xiang Luo can't trust anyone, for fear that something will happen to them.It's not that I haven't encountered it during the trap digging.At first, there were a few screams from the crowd who were able to work again, but by now, most people have adapted.Seeing some small mutated animals, they directly shoveled them into two sections with a shovel, and all kinds of monsters died.If it is bigger, there will be patrols with special weapons to solve it.

It's a pity that these zombie animals are starting to rot and smell, and they are absolutely inedible.

Otherwise, the boss, who has not tasted the smell of meat for too long, really wants to taste the taste of meat.

After digging these traps, most of the mutated animals can be prevented.With this belief, everyone is motivated.

Hurry up and finish it. After you finish it, you can go home and grow mushrooms with peace of mind!

The village has been closed for a long time, and there will inevitably be friction between them.But now, no one remembers those little things.

Now, only unite as one to deal with the army of zombie animals!
