Chapter 21 Gradual Adaptation (Part 1)
That night, the entire building 3 was very exciting. Tao Zhe and the other two were almost listening to various howls, sobs, and running in groups of three or three, screaming. They fell asleep in a daze and were soon awakened by various sounds. Tao Zhe felt that he was almost hallucinating, but he also felt the bad situation outside.
I was secretly glad that he turned off the lights in time and hid, otherwise the fate of his people would be the same as theirs. However, I just don’t know how Hu Qiong is doing. Now there is no tool to contact them, which makes Tao Zhe very worried. He doesn’t know what the situation will be if something happened to Hu Qiong, and he can’t imagine it.
And his parents, Uncle San, aren’t sure how they are now. Will they be the same as themselves and have to hide?
What is the outside world like? When will these fogs dissipate? How long will the rescue come?
In the darkness, not only Tao Zhe was thinking about these things, but everyone living was thinking about it randomly. To calculate, the misty day of yesterday made too many people see the tragic situation that they never dared to imagine in their lifetime. After experiencing all kinds of strange things that many people never encountered in their lifetime, who never thought that the once lofty human beings became a living being in such a short time?
Many people are inevitably uncomfortable. When they wake up, they always get used to washing up, and then they work and go to school. However, when sewage from the faucet gushed out, people gradually recalled the tragedy of the day and quickly realized that the weather changed and everything changed.
The next day, Tao Zhe and the other two spent a dead silence, and their mental state was not particularly good, either having nightmares or auditory hallucinations.
Especially Liu Meng, the hideous head was deeply embedded in his mind. Whenever he closed his eyes, he seemed to see a headless corpse holding his head and crying, questioning him why he didn't save himself. This made Liu Meng so anxious that he almost cried. Are you teasing me? Save you? When I saw you, I saw you with one head. How can I save it? Have you found the wrong person?
But the guy in the dream didn't reason with him and rushed over, causing him to wake up from the dream again and again, and then gasp violently, not once or twice. If this continues, he will be crazy sooner or later.
The other two Liu Zhiyun and the other two were also uncomfortable. They were used to having nightmares. After all, that scene was really terrible. Unlike in the movie, what they saw with their naked eyes was terrible, not to mention that the death was almost a moment before a few people. If it weren't for Tao Zhe, they would have died in that tragedy. So this feeling was like a ghost, always entangled in the hearts of several people.
People are originally afraid of death, not to mention that modern people cherish life so much and know that they will die at any time, no one feels good about it.
In addition, there are unlucky guys who are infected outside from time to time, and then they make tragic screams and are brutally killed. These screams of pain washed away the fragile hearts of several people over and over again. During this period, Liu Zhiyun still sobbed in her head, and her voice was very weak. In Tao Zhe's ears, Tao Zhe was helpless, so she had to pat her shoulder comfortably and said, "Anla Anla, follow me, you can get through it."
After Tao Zhe's previous god-like prediction, Liu Zhiyun and his friends had actually subconsciously relied on him. Unlike Liu Meng, the crisis she and Tao Zhe experienced was actually more. After the canteen and this time, Tao Zhe left a good impression on her, that is, it was very reliable.
Although sometimes it is very inappropriate, sometimes it is very vulgar...
Therefore, with Tao Zhe's comfort, she felt a little better, but it was just a little bit. After all, no one can guarantee that she can survive in this end of the world, and she believes that Tao Zhe can't guarantee.
Alas, why did the world become like this? Is this a nightmare or reality? Liu Zhiyun asked quietly in her heart.
Unfortunately, this is not a dream, this is reality, a cruel reality, but most of them are very interested in knowing why the world has become like this.
The living people are very eager. When they wake up, the fog outside disappears and everything returns to its original state. Unfortunately, three days later, the fourth day of the fog appears, the thick white fog still shows no sign of disappearing.
However, the food prepared by Tao Zhe has already reached the bottom, which means that the five people cannot continue to wander so leisurely. They must leave this safe dormitory and go to the outside world to find food.
"So, do we still have to stay?" The first person to break the silence and ask was Liu Zhiyun, a weak woman. Now she has gradually adapted and has gradually returned to normal. So the wise brain began to think about it again. The first thing she planned to deal with was food issues.
"We definitely can't continue to stay. We don't have much food anymore. This is the last bag of potato chips. If we continue like this, we will definitely starve to death in the dormitory." Liu Meng said in a hoarse voice. He seemed to have been aged by the torture of nightmare these days, and even his eyes became confused.
However, I also adapted to the feeling of the end of the world and no longer avoided problems.
"I agree. At worst, it's just a matter of facing the infected body. If you stay there, you will definitely die. It's better to go out and have a gamble." Deng Kaifeng said, and the Yan Hui clan nodded in agreement. Several people knew very well that staying like this was definitely not a solution. Instead of doing this, it's better to quickly discuss an idea.
"Yeah, then Tao Zhe...whether you?" Liu Zhiyun glanced at Tao Zhe with complicated eyes. At present, it was impossible for them to survive without Tao Zhe's support.
Tao Zhe's opinions are likely to influence the judgment of their group. No one will question Tao Zhe now. After all, their fortunes were saved by Tao Zhe, and no one will make things boring. Then try to be as unwilling as a funny guy.
Tao Zhe pretended to be thinking and touched his chin. In fact, he secretly glanced at his bracelet and found that when he was thinking about taking risks, the bracelet was not abnormal. When he decided to stay in the dormitory and not leave, the bracelet would become slightly hot. So Tao Zhe quickly made a judgment. Looking at the few people, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Nonsense, you must go out. Stay here, do we eat wood to live?"
"Well, okay, since that's the case, it seems that everyone agrees to go out to find food. Let's analyze the current situation below. Based on the past two days... the screams are much less, and it was very quiet throughout the morning. I think those monsters may have eaten and drunk enough, and have left us and gone to places with more people." Liu Zhiyun said his speculation these days, and the others nodded secretly. It should be so, because indeed, the situation outside seemed to have been much calmer in the past two days.
It turned out that every quarter of an hour, people screamed, or people crying in pain nearby, and even fighting sounds. However, since yesterday afternoon, the outside became particularly quiet, and there were only a few hours of hustle and bustle sounds.
Of course, this does not rule out that there are fewer survivors, so the frequency of mutated infected bodies finding living people is reduced, and naturally there are fewer screams, but this is not something that a few people can know. They can only think as much as possible in the direction they think is reasonable.
Tao Zhe said that at this time he realized that the golden finger of the bracelet is precious. Whenever he had any ideas, the golden finger would give corresponding tips. With his thinking about the bracelet these days, he has roughly figured out some ways to use the bracelet. For example, on this issue, he simulated several methods in his mind and came to a conclusion based on the reaction of the bracelet. This conclusion is the same as Liu Zhiyun and others reasoned that the mutant infections outside have indeed decreased.
In other words, the risk of going out is indeed much smaller now, but this is only relative, because while Tao Zhe was discussing, he had imagined dozens of ways to escape in his mind alone, and finally he was terrified to find that all of them didn't work. For example, he thought about opening the door quietly and trying not to cause the infectious body outside as much as possible. Then when he stepped into the fog, the bracelet began to appear red spots, which means that something might happen to someone among them. Then when he left the dormitory building, he hadn't run far, and the bracelet turned blood-red, which means that he was ggling too.
This made him come back to his senses directly from his imagination and he was suddenly helpless.
The situation is really too difficult to start now, and almost every plan is to die, which shows how cruel the world outside is.
Turning to look at the people, these guys actually thought that it would be fine if they didn't encounter a mutated infected body. This made Tao Zhe complain: "You are sure that in our current situation, you can survive if you encounter an ordinary infected body?"
"Hmm? What does it mean?" Liu Zhiyun frowned.
"Sister, we have to need weapons. Look, what weapons are there in our dormitory? Scissors? Nail Sword? Are you sure we encounter an infected body, and then grab the scissors and give the infected body a forehead?" Tao Zhe looked speechless.
That's true. Several people don't even have a decent weapon, which is not as good as the situation in the dormitory next door a few days ago. Their fruit knives are definitely easier to use than scissors.
Hum? Fruit Knife? Tao Zhe suddenly thought of the fruit knives collected by the guys in the next dormitory. He suddenly lit up and almost laughed out loud. He quickly closed his eyes and imagined the feasibility of going to their dormitory to get the fruit knives. Then he was surprised to find that if they really got a fruit knive, the chance of leaving the dormitory building was much higher. When they left the door, there was no red spots in the bracelet. However, it was still very difficult after leaving the door, and it became mostly red, but it was much hotter than before.
After all, as long as you don’t get hot, there will be no danger of life without any accidents, or if you don’t have any trouble, it means everything is easy to say.
Let me mention here that the bracelet does not directly show the result of doing something, but shows a probability, or luck value. Tao Zhe can confirm its color and know whether it is easy for him to do this. If it is green, it means that as long as Tao Zhe does it according to the normal trajectory, his luck will be extremely good and everything will develop in the direction of happiness for everyone. However, if it is blood red, then if he doesn't find a solution quickly, he will basically end up in a tragedy.
Moreover, according to an accidental experiment by Tao Zhe, he found that this bracelet is not a simple thing to measure luck. If he had some opportunities, the bracelet would even change his luck directly. For example, it would be impossible to complete one thing. However, by chance, the person did nothing, but the bracelet changed the color, and then a task that was obviously impossible was completed was completed like this. No matter how the person stopped it, the matter would be accomplished no matter what. However, this was only discovered by Tao Zhe by chance, and he himself was not sure whether it was like this. If this was the case, then what the opportunity was another question. Tao Zhe had thought about it for a long time but had no answer, and then it was simply left alone.
