Chapter 9

It's too hot.

I'm afraid I can't imagine this heat if I'm not in it - the sweat just came out, evaporated immediately, and then there was another layer of hot sweat. Lin Sanjiu only felt that his body system seemed to have become a lingering old dog, fighting for his life "wheezing" in the hot air.

By comparison, Luze looks much stronger. Although he was carrying mather on his back, he seemed more calm than Lin Sanjiu. He saw it himself and asked loudly, "Hey, are you... Strong...?"

"What?" Lin Sanjiu also raised his voice. The sound of the car engine around was too loud. Luze was just on the other side of the car, and she couldn't hear it clearly.

"I said -" Luze walked around the car a few steps and came over. Mather on his back was a little taller than him, and his feet were dragged on the ground. "Haven't you been physically strengthened?"

Just now, Lin Sanjiu just spit out two words. She felt her tongue was dry, and she did it all the way into her throat. She didn't dare to speak again, so she had to shake her head and signal Lu Ze to hurry away. Lu Ze looked surprised, as if he wanted to say something - but now which is the time to chat? Hurriedly nodded, and began to painstakingly pass through the hot traffic that was constantly spouting outward.

Every few steps, Lin Sanjiu would raise his hand and wipe his eyelids. She sweat too much, just dripping into her eyes, * spicy uncomfortable - she can't help but doubt herself: is that "high temperature adaptation" time-lapse? Otherwise, why was she not so hot at first, but now she is sweating like rain?

If this goes on, can we rush to the supermarket before dehydration?

The two men looked around in silence - there was a guardrail in the middle of the road, which was originally intended to divide the traffic flow into two directions. But when the crisis comes, there are too few people who can abide by the traffic rules. At this time, the cars on both sides are tangled together, some of which are in the right direction and some of which are in the wrong direction

If you cross the guardrail, it's not only the physical burden and inconvenience of carrying mather on your back, it means you have to cross a hot traffic flow again - but it's really fatal.

Coincidentally, both of them walked towards the end of the car dragon.

The driver of Land Rover is a thin woman; When the two passed by, Lin Sanjiu found that she had fallen into the car, with sunken eyes and no one knew anything - I'm afraid she was short of water all the way, and she had already experienced dehydration and unconsciousness, so she crashed into the car in a panic.

The air conditioner in the car whose front was crashed by Land Rover can be imagined to be out of use; However, thanks to the previous air conditioning, the middle-aged fat man driving was miraculously awake, and he stared at them closely as soon as they got out of the car.

When Lin Sanjiu passed by his car, the fat man slammed the window several times at her.

To be honest, Lin Sanjiu is not a hard hearted person; However, at this time, she was about to heat up, and it was still a problem how long she could last. What's more, she couldn't squeeze out any superfluous compassion, and only frowned at the fat man.

Across the glass, the fat man's voice was vague: "outside... Hot... Can you go?"

Lin Sanjiu probably guessed what he meant, shook his head, took a step and left. The heat from the car made the bad situation even more unbearable. She really couldn't stand in front of the car and chat with strangers.

Seeing that she was leaving, the fat man's eyes suddenly widened, and he pushed open the door: "I'm talking to you, stop - aren't you walking outside, I..." before his voice fell, he suddenly gave out a harsh scream.

The scream was full of numbing pain, even overshadowing the sound of the engine. Lin Sanjiu hurriedly turned around and found that the fat man's exposed skin burst into a series of blisters without injury——

The bright red and congested blisters burst on his skin, and the fat man's face and hands seemed to be splashed with boiling water, shocking pieces of broken skin. His pain continued, and Lin Sanjiu couldn't help it anymore. He held Lu Ze steady with one hand, raised his foot, kicked him back into the car with one foot, and then slammed the door.

The pain suddenly became lighter, and seeing the fat man's scald, it seemed that it would no longer continue - Lin Sanjiu took a breath and exchanged a startled look with Lu Ze.

It turned out that it was not her ability to decline, but the outdoor temperature had risen to a terrible level: as soon as ordinary people were exposed to such air, they had a direct scald reaction - Lin Sanjiu could not imagine the current temperature.

"Forget it, let's go!" Lu Ze, who has always been talkative, also began to cherish words like gold.

They hurried out of the car and left hundreds of engines, which made them feel better. After crossing the road and walking on the sidewalk with trees, they dared not delay and rushed straight towards the shopping center.

The leaves on the roadside have long lost their green, blackened and withered, curled up under the tree. From time to time, Lin Sanjiu will see several people lying on the ground motionless - every inch of the skin is scalded, and the body has not fluctuated for a long time.

No matter how strong she was, Lin Sanjiu saw so many dead people for the first time - she swallowed it with some fear and nausea, but her mouth was dry and there was no water at all.

"Let's drink the rest of the coke!" Lu zegan's dumb voice came from behind.

Lin Sanjiu thought for a while and took out the last can of coke. There is plenty of water in the supermarket, so you don't have to take risks outside to save this. In the past, there were too few cokes to drink in one breath. At this time, they didn't care whether they were good or not. They hurriedly emptied the hot cokes half by half.

Throw away the cans and walk for a while. The front door of the shopping center gradually shows a clear appearance.

In the past, the fountain pool, which never stopped, was chapped, as if it had never been wet. However, several bodies lying face down in the pool showed that the fountain had been their last glimmer of hope. The body, whose skin was scalded after death, fell everywhere, shocking.

Lin Sanjiu bowed his head, carefully avoiding the bodies on the ground, and jumped forward. Occasionally, I looked up and found that Luze was carrying mather on his back, and I didn't know when he had walked in front of him.

Just wondering how he walked so fast, he immediately had the answer: Luze didn't care at all, stepped on the back of a young mother like body, and walked into the door of the shopping center like walking on the ground.

Lin Sanjiu hurried a few steps, caught up, and slapped him heavily on the arm angrily, "can't you respect the dead?" Just say a word, my throat is dry and sore.

Luze was startled by her, his expression was vaguely confused, and then he reacted: "Oh, oh! That... Sorry, I've seen too many dead people, probably already a little numb." He showed a rabbit's tooth shyly: "at first, I was the same as you."

Seeing his good attitude, Lin Sanjiu didn't say anything more even if he was uncomfortable, so he turned to the topic: "go that way, just go down an elevator!"

Lu Ze nodded, then looked up at the shopping center, gently exclaimed, "it's really beautiful here..." without stopping, he followed Lin Sanjiu all the way to the supermarket.

It is said that this shopping center was designed by a famous French architect - a total of five floors high, with an empty center and dense tropical plants. Probably because of the split floors, tropical trees have been growing high to the elevator on the fifth floor. When walking here, I feel like walking in the primeval forest.

But now there is no time to enjoy it. Lin Sanjiu glanced at it quickly, only feeling that there was something wrong. For a moment, he couldn't say why, so he had to shake his head and rush down the elevator.

When they saw the supermarket, they both breathed.

The situation is worse than Lin Sanjiu expected - she must not be the only one who can think of this supermarket; But the situation in the supermarket still made her feel unexpected.

When the temperature was unusually high last night, the supermarket was obviously open, so it was full of people. Of course, these people were unable to move or speak at this time, and fell on the ground and became corpses. The chaos of last night seemed to be solidified: there were falling empty bottles, mineral water bottles, beverage bottles everywhere... The beige floor was splashed with the traces of dried fruit juice drinks. The last few bottles of water were lying in a mess on the drink rack as if they had been ransacked, and several dead people on the ground were holding a pile of drinks firmly in their arms.

The most shocking thing is that the cause of death of a cashier was obviously not dehydration - the back of her head was deeply deflated, and the cash register in front of her was wide open, empty inside.

Luze tut twice: "the money robber should be stupid now!"

"If he's not dead yet." Lin Sanjiu had already lost his tongue. He drew a bottle of water from the bosom of a corpse at the door, drank half a bottle without taboo, and handed it to Lu Ze.

It seems that although there are corpses all over the supermarket and there has been a mess, it should not be a problem to maintain the water supply for three people at least for now. Luze was tired after walking with mather on his back all the way. He put her on the floor and muttered, "obviously, she's not real flesh and blood. Why is she so heavy..."

Lin Sanjiu sat on a cashier without dead people to rest. Hearing this, he couldn't help asking curiously, "I'd like to ask... Martha was there before, and I'm not funny. What does that degenerate mean by saying that she is fake blood and fake meat?"

"She is my differentiated personality, and in a sense, she is also a person." Luze said while drinking water, "however, her authenticity depends on my ability... Now I'm insufficient, so many places on mather are not... Er, perfect."

Lin Sanjiu nodded and didn't ask again. After replenishing their water, they took a rest for a while, and then felt that the empty stomach and intestines were suffering for a while.

"Let's go to the food section?" Lin San Jiu suggested.

"Wait." Luze stopped her, looked around and asked, "is there anything handy here that can be used as a weapon?"
