The land is in a state of destruction.
Time quietly ushered in the early autumn.
Autumn is the harvest season. In the old days, harvest had many meanings. It can be wealth, it can be love, it can also be the heavy wheat on the ear of wheat. However, for the new era, in addition to the meaning of the above gains, there is an additional one.
Death.
Yes, death. In turbulent times, life is as cheap as grass. Only those who are above all living beings and occupy the upper middle part of the pyramid can have some guarantee of life. It's just that this guarantee is far from that heavy.
Early autumn has come, can winter be far behind? If we don't accumulate enough winter supplies in autumn, life will wither in batches. Without the protection of underground bases, without enough heating and food to maintain the survival baseline, ordinary people can hardly survive a winter.
More than half a century has passed in the new era. In the first ten years, the number of deaths showed an explosive trend. Then it gradually slowed down. In the last decade, the death line has been maintained at a low level. But even so, this horizontal line is based on the dark ages. In the old times, it is still a shocking figure.
Even if the human reproductive capacity continues to improve, the resources are also reduced in proportion. This means that if there is no material support for the newborn, it will eventually become a small skeleton in the wilderness.
The wilderness is full of the smell of death. Here is the back garden of death. Every ten years, a large-scale settlement on the ground will become small, while the small and medium-sized ones will die out directly. There are many reasons for extinction, such as being attacked by mutants or being taken back as slaves by powerful organizations. But the biggest reason is being eliminated.
With the sharp decrease of resources, the planet has not so much carrying capacity, so it uses its own way to refresh the number of life, in order to maintain a relatively balanced ecology.
An SUV appeared in the wilderness.
In front of it is a wild ruin. The size of the city seems to be medium. In the old days, there might have been millions of people. But now, it's just a silhouette on the horizon. From that silhouette, there is the taste of loneliness, death and danger.
The SUV is also lonely because it has no companions. Driving alone on the intermittent wild road, it seems that the driver is a novice. The vehicle can't keep straight. If the track is represented by lines, you will find that the curve is like a snake. It's a pity that the curve can't be said to be beautiful. On the contrary, it has a thrilling feeling.
However, no matter how shocking the driver drives, at least a teenager in the back seat of the car always keeps his eyes closed. If you look at the posture of him lying on the seat, you can be sure that he is sleeping.
Sometimes a sharp turn of the car will throw him to the seat. At this time, the young man in his sleep will unconsciously stretch out his hand on the seat and pull his body back to its original position. Some bumps on the way. Even once he hit the car with his head, the boy just turned over and went to sleep.
Compared with the youth's calm, the girl driving seems a little cramped. She was sweating, but on her small face was the word stubborn. The hand holding the steering wheel is so strong that it seems to be competing with the off-road force. This makes a round creature in the co pilot's seat look very scared. Even if his chubby body is fixed with a seat belt, there is no peace of mind in his eyes.
In this way, the SUV twisted into the ruins of the city, and even knocked off a sign at the entrance of the city. The sign says "juan city", which is the name of the city. Here's a warning: be careful of those dog days.
The car was parked in front of a broken building, about six or seven stories in size. Most of the building facing the street was cut by something, exposing the structure of the building, and a stone wall was built near the street. Obviously, the car can't drive directly. If you want to pass, you have to make a detour. But seeing that the sun had set, the driver of the car decided to rest here for the night.
First she wiped the sweat on her forehead, then pulled up her silvery hair, tied it to a ponytail with a rubber rope, and then jumped out of the car with an amazing sword in her hand. The girl looked at the boy who was still snoring in the back seat, then picked it up and threw it to the ground. This throw used the ingenious strength, the young man landed, bounced, and was pressed down by the dark force. After three times, the young man jumped up in pain. Covering his cheek, which was warmly kissing the ground, the teenager complained, "can't you wake me up in the normal way?"
The girl asked, "can I wake you up in a normal way?"
The youth is speechless.
The silver haired girl knocked the boy on the head with her scabbard and said, "go and get some food. We've eaten all our dry food."
The boy covered his face and looked down at the city at night. He sniffed and said, "I can only smell the smell of a corpse. Can't I eat that?""There will always be something else. Go and don't waste time." Girls have no good airway.
Then he grabbed the strange creature in the co pilot's seat and swaggered into the abandoned building. The boy shook his head. The city is full of the smell of living corpses. Many of these things are hovering in this abandoned building. But he knew that the things in that building would soon be gone.
He left and had to find something to eat.
After the young man left, a live corpse roared in the abandoned building. Whistling appears fast and disappears fast. A moment later, a firelight appeared in a window on the third floor. The girl found this relatively clean room, and picked up some furniture that could not be used. She ejected a few wisps of finger wind, cut these things up, and then lit a fire.
Fire can be used for heating as well as baking. Of course, it may also attract something else. For example, the living corpse, but at least in this building, there is no need to be afraid of the fire to attract the living corpse. Because those things have become real bodies.
Soon, the boy came back. He pulled back two corpse wolves, the youngest of which was the size of a boy. The wolf's head is hanging loosely, the cervical vertebra has been broken violently, and the blood dripping from the wolf's kiss pulls out a red line on the ground and extends into the room.
Moni looked at the blood line on the ground and said angrily, "this thing will cause unnecessary trouble."
Jilu confessed: "are you afraid of trouble?"
"That's true." Moni nodded, no longer caring about girutan's little mistake. As soon as she flicked, a dagger appeared in her hand. Then the familiar skin, bone, meat. Moni's technique is very skilled. She quickly turns two corpse wolves into pieces of wolf meat with an anatomical technique comparable to that of a surgeon. Then a simple grill was set up on the fire. With the jump of the dagger, the wolf meat flew to the grill.
In a short time, the smell of meat had been floating in the small room.
It was a normal night for Moni and girutan. They rest here for one night, replenish their food, and then continue their journey tomorrow. However, the fate is wonderful, when the two solved the half wolf meat, another SUV came from the same direction. The driver of the car was waving his blue hair, like a burning blue flame at night.
So the night became extraordinary again.
PS A small chapter is a little surprise. It's almost new year's day. The work has come to an end for the time being. There will be more time recently. So small surprises like this should be more frequent. Now there is no recommendation. Do you leave a message in the book review area after reading? Don't make me too lonely~~
