Chapter 28： 28th

Looking down from the second floor, the hordes of zombies are more and more shocking, as if there is no end, and the layers are creeping endlessly, making everyone feel cold.

It is the mid-spring season, and the sun is shining for several days. Although the zombies can still move, the ground and flesh on the body have long lost their activity. The result of being exposed to the sun for several days can be imagined. Thousands of dead rotten odors came together, and if the window was opened with a slit, the smell would faint people.

Shen Shi'an led the children around the six-story floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor, and carefully observed the zombies below, and his eyebrows frowned for every additional moment of observation.

I don't know if it is an illusion. He always feels that some of the zombies' moves seem to be a little more flexible than three days ago. The slowness and stiffness between actions is becoming less and less obvious, and he can even try to jump.

Can zombies evolve?

This sudden thought made Shen Shi'an feel a cloud quickly in his mind. In just three days after the virus outbreak, the number of survivors has fallen sharply to less than a quarter of the total population, and the survival situation has already been difficult. If in this case, more than three-quarters of the total number of zombies is returned If it can evolve, then the entire human race may be in danger of genocide.

In order to prevent it from being dazzled by himself, Shen Shi'an looked closer to the floor-to-ceiling window. In the past, the spotless glass was covered with a layer of dirt because of the explosion caused by the crash of the passenger plane and the collapse of the building, but fortunately, the impact on the view was not too great. When he stared at several zombies that behaved abnormally, it seemed as if there was a sense in the meditation. A series of seven or eight zombies suddenly raised their heads at the same time, and there was a black hole in the rotten eyes, straight toward Shen Shi'an looked over.

A deep chilly bone crawled up against the back, Shen Shi'an stepped back subconsciously, his legs hit a long table and made a muffled sound, something inexplicably cold and frightened like a bone-bone claw. He held his heart tightly, as if he had encountered a major threat to his life. At this time, the internal body exercises were working to the extreme. Numerous small auras gathered from all around, because the speed was too fast and even formed around him. Hundreds of invisible cyclones.

Shen Xun immediately noticed his abnormality and ran to grab his hand "An'an!"

Shen Shi'an leaned on the table and gasped a few times. His face was a little pale, but his eyes became darker and brighter. "I'm okay," he shook his head, waiting for the sudden coldness and coldness to suddenly disappear, and the internal workings gradually returned to normal. He raised his hand and touched his slightly warm abdomen, which seemed a little unsure. " I feel like the exercises are about to advance. "

The exercises are indeed about to advance. When the enthusiasm in the lower abdomen continued for more than two hours and still did not stop, and his five senses were slowly rising at a noticeable rate, Shen Shi'an finally determined this.

He has been practicing Gongfa for more than two months. Although it is not too long, it is only logical that he is promoted to the first level. After all, according to the Gongfa book, this is the most basic and simple step in the entire cultivation phase, which is probably more than Babies learn to drink milk a little harder.

Regardless of what triggered this advancement, whether it was the desperate rush before the plane crashed, or the mental stimulation experienced at that moment, the improvement of exercises is a great thing for Shen Shi'an.

I just do n’t know how long this advancement will take, and whether the use of exercises during the advancement period will be affected.

In addition, those pair of black holeless eyes have completely become a lingering shadow in Shen Shi'an's heart. Whether it was the strange behavior of the zombies or the response of the internal body exercises to this, it has confirmed the worst guess in his mind since the virus broke out--

Zombies, at least the zombies whose behavior patterns have changed, are sensitive to his space or the spiritual spring in the space.

This means that in the last days, he is a living target for attracting zombies.

What is the effective distance of this induction? Is there a way to shield this induction? Will this induction weaken or increase as his skill level increases? ...

Shen Shian's thoughts were complicated. Numerous questions were rummaged in his mind but none could be answered. At last he sighed and hugged the child. "Let's find some books."

On the second floor is a reading room. All types of newspapers, magazines, and periodicals are placed on the bookshelf. They are extremely rich and complete, from international affairs to entertainment gossip, from fashion pictorials to pig breeding manuals.

The geography books and materials are on the fourth floor of the library. The detailed maps of the provinces and cities stored in it are the main purpose that Shen Shi'an chose to go to the city center from the beginning. But he didn't intend to reveal his goal. In the case of zombies everywhere on the second floor and above, a person rushing to the fourth floor was really strange. Anyway, with so many survivors, the food simply cannot afford to be consumed, and there will always be people who propose to clean up and collect materials one by one.

Shen Shi'an turned around the bookshelf a few times, took four or five journals related to crop planting, and found two comic books for the children. He walked to a coffee table a little far from the window and sat down to read.

When you are trapped in a limited space, there is no network and games, there is no way to leave and nothing can be done, and the time suddenly becomes extremely long.

Some of the survivors are sleeping, both to save energy and reduce consumption. Some sit around in groups of three or five, and some are looking out of the window, and others, like Shen Shian, pass the time by reading newspapers and magazines.

Shen Shi'an and Shen Xun sat opposite each other. In addition to a few books on the coffee table, they also put a pack of strange beans and iced tomato juice in a thermos cup. The sun poured in through the window, flipped through the pages of the book and drank an ice drink. Ignoring the endless hoarse howl of the zombie army is a rare afternoon quiet time.

It's just that this silence was quickly broken, and there was a growing quarrel from the reading room. You don't have to go out to see Shen Shi'an to know what these quarrels are for—water.

There are generally two ways of water supply in cities. One is the artesian water supply system, which uses natural gravity to make the water source from high to low. It is usually suitable for buildings and households at lower altitudes. The other is a pump water supply system. That is, the water is pumped directly to high places by electricity, which is usually suitable for buildings and households at higher altitudes.

The first and second floors of the library have low altitude, so the water was not cut off even after the city was powered off, but maybe it was reminded by the **** the radio in the early morning that many people began to realize that they were trapped somewhere and the water source was cut off. What a terrible thing.

The library still has water, but the storage capacity of the highland pool is limited. In case the water in the water tower runs out, where is the electricity to transport water from other places? The backup power system in the library only controls lighting, but it does n’t matter whether the water pump is available or not. When the water runs out, then they just have to sit and wait for death!

It was not too early in the morning, and some people found various appliances that could hold water, took water from the tap and stored it. The herd effect is often blind and crazy, especially when it comes to self-interest and stimulates the desire for survival, the first one will have the second, then the third and fourth ... to the last half of the crowd I am afraid that I will suffer if I pick up late.

There are a total of four bathrooms and eight faucets on the first and second floors of the library. Once they are not allocated enough, it will naturally cause contradictions and disputes.

The quarrel didn't last long, and it calmed down in Zhang Ze's exhortation. Shen Shian has observed his words and deeds carefully, and found that he seems to be very good at and is accustomed to playing the role of leader in the group.

After turning over half of the magazine, a short-haired young man suddenly walked up beside him, with a tall head and dark complexion. I was embarrassed and put two bottles of water on the coffee table. , I brought you two bottles. "

Shen Shi'an was a little surprised. He looked at the bottle and looked at the young man. It was not immediately clear what he meant.

"Ah," the young man responded, and scratched his head even more embarrassed. "Mr. Shen probably doesn't remember me. My name is Li Cheng. I'm a courier. I gave Mr. Shen a takeaway. Right in that neighborhood? "

Shen Shi'an frowned slightly. He had not ordered a lot of take-out land but not too many, so there was still no way to connect the other party with specific events. What's more, what does the other person have delivered to them to take delivery, and what is the relationship between water delivery to them now? Takeaway service is a good deal of money and goods. What I really want to say is to thank the other party myself.

The young man saw his suspicions and hurriedly continued, "I gave Mr. Shen a takeaway at the end of December last year. A handsome man called Mr. Yun Ao Tianyun placed the order and Mr. Shen took it to me when he arrived. The bottle of mineral water also gave me a five-star praise. Hey, because I made two more dollars for this one. "Speaking at the end, he smiled brightly and straightly, exposing two rows of white and neat teeth.

Shen Shi'an finally remembered. That day was the first day he returned home from the hospital after the car accident, and Yun Feiyang ordered takeaway. Later, in order to complete the agreement with his mother to "exercise one good day", he took a bottle of mineral water to the takeaway and let Yun Feiyang Five-star praise.

After more than three months, Shen Shi'an had long forgotten what the delivery man looked like. If it wasn't for the other party's reminder at this time, I'm afraid he would never remember such a passenger in his life. That bottle of mineral water is just a quick way to complete the task for me, even someone will remember it for so long?

Li Cheng laughed again. "Well, it ’s not a good job to deliver food. There are many places for delivery, and all kinds of people can meet. Because the food is not good, I was badly judged because of traffic jams on the road. After a few minutes of complaining and scolding, I also delivered it clearly, because I accidentally knocked over the result and lay on me, and called for compensation ... Anyway, it was quite a lot when I didn't go well, so I sent all I said thank you to the guests who gave me a good review. I wrote it down. When I was in a bad mood, I thought about it one by one and it was not so uncomfortable. Mr. Shen was the first and only person to bring me water. I remember clearly Now, I recognized it as soon as I entered the library yesterday, but I was embarrassed to come over to talk, and today I saw Mr. Shen never going out to pick up water, so I brought two bottles with me. "

Talking about pushing the water slightly towards the middle of the coffee table, "The bottle is clean, I washed it before receiving the water. The water is left in the water heater, it's still warm, just because children don't drink cold water. "

Shen Shian didn't know what to say. Regardless of the others, how can water from three months ago and current water be compared on the same standard? What was dispensable at the time was now life-saving.

My mind was full of thoughts, and I could only say "Thank you."

"You're welcome. You should, you should, I just happened to be good." Li Cheng quickly waved his hands, posed and didn't hold back a yawn, and quickly covered his mouth again. "I'm sorry, last night After listening to that little girl's radio, I never fell asleep. "

Shen Shi'an looked closely, and it turned out that he found a dark blue from the bottom of his eyes.

Li Cheng sat down in another chair after obtaining consent, as if he finally found the person to talk to, and raised his eyebrows and sighed heavily. "It's a shame that she is so young and so smart. She is at home alone How pathetic, if only I could rescue her ... "

Shen Shian can understand his guilt and helplessness, but this matter is probably powerless for anyone in the library.

It is not difficult to make a simple signal transmitter. As long as you have a small electrical appliance such as a radio or alarm clock at hand, you can easily do it by disassembling a few parts and reassembling. Many senior private schools that value practical skills are taught in manual lessons in junior high or elementary school. When Shen Shi'an helped a child to find a school that suits him for a while, he watched a lot of similar teaching videos from the school's official website.

But such a transmitter has a very obvious limitation, which is that the propagation distance is short. According to Shen Shi'an's estimation, the girl named Xiong Mengmeng should be no more than one kilometer away from the library in a straight line. This means that she and the survivors in the library are separated by a zombie army that cannot see the end.

How to save?

No one can save her.

In the last days, the DPRK is not guaranteed, and there are certain things that can only be left to fate.

Li Cheng sat down for a while, stood up, and prepared to leave. Shen Shi'an thought and called him "You don't have to worry too much, the tap water in the library will not be broken in a short time."

The highland pools in h city are distributed by district, that is to say, the water tower that supplies the library at least stores enough water for hundreds of thousands of people throughout the city center in three days. The population concentration in the city center, the proportion of zombie conversion will only be far higher than the average level, plus the commercial water is completely stopped, even if the survivors who fled the city are not considered, the water storage in the water tower is sufficient to ensure the basic residents' water use, even if it It is estimated that there will be no problem for several months.

After listening to his explanation, Li Cheng's eyes brightened, and he became increasingly embarrassed at the act of sending water. "You see what I did, and thought it was helpful. I didn't expect to do it any more. Hey, college students who have read books are Not the same, then Mr. Shen is busy, I will not bother. "

After waiting for Shen Shi'an to show anything, she scratched her head and ran away.

Shen Xun, who has not spoken, twisted the two bottles of water one by one and smelled them, no problem. Seeing Shen Shi'an was in a good mood, he jumped out of the chair and squeezed into his arms. "When did you meet him, An An?"

Shen Shi'an rubbed two on his head and continued reading. "It has nothing to do with you. At that time you didn't know where it was."

Ok?

Shen Xun raised his cheeks.

Probably because he slept much during the day, the survivors that night fell asleep significantly later than the day before. Shen Shi'an took two pillows against the wall and held the child in his arms to read a story book to him.

"... 'Oh, he treats this princess as me,' The little mermaid looks at the prince and the bride in his arms and feels his heart is breaking. 'For him, I left my tribe and gave up the beauty His voice endured endless pain every day, but he didn't know at all. 'The little mermaid hoped she could tell the truth, but she couldn't speak anymore, she was just a pitiful little girl in the palace Dumb. By tomorrow morning, when the first rays of sun rise, she will become a foam in the sea and disappear completely ... "

"Ann," the child interrupted him. "Why doesn't the little mermaid write?"

"... What?" Shen Shi'an did not respond for a moment.

Shen Xun turned from his arms. "Isn't the little mermaid giving her voice to the witch so she can't speak, then why didn't she write? After writing the words, she can tell the truth to the prince."

Shen Shi was silent. To be honest, since he first knew the story of "Daughter of the Sea", he has never considered the other party's "why not write and tell the prince the truth" question.

"Probably because the mermaid is not a human, the mermaid cannot write human characters." He quickly compiled a very reliable explanation.

"I can't learn it. She lived in the palace for several months. Can't I even learn a few words for such a long time? Didn't I learn it, I'm not human ..." Shen Xun covered her in time. Mouth, his eyes quietly looked around for a moment, and almost said it was leaking.

Shen Shi'an was silent again. The survivors who heard the conversation between them laughed. "Ah, it's true. It can be solved in a few words. Why don't the little mermaid learn? Oh, this child's head is so flexible."

Shen Xun was a little proud, summing up the old **** with his hands in his chest. "So the little mermaid was stupid by himself. In the final analysis, I still ate a loss without culture."

"Hahahahaha ..."

In the laughter of everyone, Shen Xun and Shen Shi'an coquettishly, "Ann, I don't want to hear such stories, is there any thrills?"

Shen Shi'an thought for a while and went to the staff room to get a copy of "Liao Zhai Zhi Yi"-probably which administrator was idle and bored, and passed downstairs to pass the time.

The ghosts and fox fairy fairies, now Shen Xun excited, and opened his eyes and listened with interest. However, after listening to them for a few times, I had the question, "An'an, do all monsters saved by human beings want to repay their favors?" What are the fox sprites and bitches?

Shen Shi'an was afraid that he would ask some difficult questions again and again, and he persevered a few times, then closed the book together, "Okay, that's all for today, lie down and prepare to sleep."

Shen Xun got into the blanket and looked at Shen Shi'an's side face thoughtfully.

The darker the night, the quieter the reading room became. After confirming that everyone was asleep, Shen Shi'an awakened the child again, "I'll send you in for dinner."

Unexpectedly, this time the child immediately shook his head and resolutely disagreed.

Shen Shi'an frowned, and whispered, "You're obedient, I don't grow tall without eating, I'm really not hungry."

"Then I'm not hungry," Shen Xun wasn't moved, a pair of dark green eyes were deep and quiet in the night, like an emerald moistened by springs. "You promised you wouldn't shut me in against my will Yes, "he paused, adding," Even if you put me in, I won't eat. "

Shen Shi'an was speechless, both distressed and funny, but had nothing to do.

Shen Xun noticed his looseness, grinned two times, and kissed him on the forehead, and took his neck into his arms. "Good night, sleep well."
