Chapter 8 Life


He left the black market before dark, with two buckets of water hanging on the back of his bicycle, and rode toward home.

Romance: He doesn't live in the black market, he lives in the outskirts of the black market.

His father explained to him that he should not put too much pressure on himself to survive, as long as he made sure it was complete, it would be the same no matter where he lived.

Later, when he was living alone, he realized what his father said.

Every time he came back from digging in the wasteland, as long as he had enough supplies to last ten or eight days, he could stay at home leisurely, without doing anything or using anything. think.

Unlike those survivors who live in the black market, in order to avoid being kicked out of the house where they live, they have to think about how to pay next month's management fees, water and electricity bills, etc., and they cannot eat or sleep well. .

He pedaled his bike very fast to avoid encountering a nuclear corpse.

Unknowingly, he changed his name from nuclear polluter to nuclear zombie in his mind.

He watched the Nuclear Corpse Challenge Competition all afternoon and faced the crazy shouting of the audience, the merciless explanation of the female host Rose, and the bloody killings of the contestants. and were killed.

Under the influence of the three, he could no longer regard "them" as patients.

Perhaps, this is the reason why his father strictly prevented him from entering the Nuclear Corpse Challenge Competition.

After watching such a program, people not only cannot see the Nuclear Corpse as a human being, but also cannot even see themselves as a human being.

What he sees is just a beast.

He was fighting for his life with another beast, and a group of beasts were watching.

He left without watching the appearance of the last two contestants.

He could not accept this loss of humanity.

What was even more unacceptable was that the woman he had just met might also be among the enthusiastic audience.

Could it be that everyone alive Have they all become so bloodthirsty?

But he couldn't deny that when he saw the moment when the contestants killed the nuke zombie, or the scene where the No. 5 player was bitten by the female nuke zombie, he actually felt very exciting, happy and bloodthirsty.

Maybe it was the hidden nature of human beings.

The sky was getting dark and the temperature dropped sharply.

He was covered in sweat from riding and returned to the community where he lived.

The name of the community is Rainbow, and he doesn't know if he can see the day when Rainbow reappears in the world.

Rainbow Community is not large in scale, with only a few multi-storey and small high-rise buildings.

It is located in a remote area and belongs to the urban-suburban junction, but the surrounding environment is quite good, with mountains and water.

There is a river beside it, called Xiaoqing River, and a bridge on the river, called Rainbow Bridge.

Across the bridge is a very famous hill.

According to legend, Sun Tzu in ancient times once climbed here to look at the sea, hence the name Sunwang Mountain.

Beyond that is another big mountain called Beida Mountain.

He carefully looked around to make sure no one was following him before entering the community.

There are two hill-like garbage dumps piled at the entrance of the community, which are the products of the collapse of social order after the nuclear explosion.

With the number of residents in the community decreasing day by day, and after so many years of wind and rain, the two garbage dumps no longer have the stinky smell they once had.

Instead, they have become a good cover-up, proving that the community has been abandoned for a long time.

He is the last person in Rainbow Community.

He doesn’t know where the other people have gone.

He once spent a week digging up all the houses in the community, including more than a dozen locked houses.

Now There were several emaciated corpses, all of them starved to death.

Romance He threw the corpses into the river to feed the fish.

Neither the nuclear polluter nor the giant rats would eat the corpses, otherwise he would just throw the corpses on the roadside.

If a rabbit doesn't eat the grass next to its nest, that's nonsense.

It's just nonsense if you can eat it.

That week's harvest lasted him two months.

He rode straight to Block 27 4a.

The house was left to him by his father.

It had two bedrooms and one living room.

It was not large in area, but it had the warmth of home.

This was his last harbor in this cruel world.

He hid his bicycle in the weeds by the door, carried a backpack and two buckets of water, and entered the cave.

He first observed the few thin lines across the stairs that he had laid out as the first line of defense.

After seeing that they were not damaged, he felt relieved and crossed them carefully.

He laid such thin threads from the first floor to the seventh floor, each thread holding a small bell.

They have two functions.

When he comes back from going out, he can observe whether there are outsiders invading his territory; when he is at home, the bells on the line can remind him whether there is an intruder.

He arrived at the door of his house, opened three locks, opened two doors, and finally returned to his nest.

He put down the bucket and locked the door.

The first thing he did was to clamp the electrodes on the battery beside the door.

A spark flashed and the energy-saving lamp above his head lit up, illuminating the originally dark room.

The muscles all over his body relaxed immediately, he took off his backpack, leaned his back against the door, breathed a long sigh of relief, pulled down the mask he had been wearing until now, and breathed freely the air of his home that he had not seen for a long time.

He took off his coat, which was covered with dust from the outside world, and put on his slippers.

A kind of relaxation was released from the inside out.

When he got home, it still felt like home.

He walked around the house, checked the balcony, doors and windows, pulled up all the curtains to prevent the light in the house from leaking out, and put the survival necessities in the backpack into categories.

Finally, he put himself Throw it on the sofa in the living room, press the switch of the laptop on the coffee table, and while waiting for it to turn on, take a few more sips of water, pick up the half-eaten compressed biscuits from the day before yesterday on the coffee table, stuff them into your mouth, and forget about dinner. .

After turning on the computer, he first turned on the surveillance system, and with the last remaining light before dark, he checked the entrance of his home, the community under the balcony, and the road facing the outside window.

When his father did not leave, there were people in these three directions.

A camera was installed.

After confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he opened a folder on his computer, and a dense array of video files filled the entire screen.

Thanks to his father, thousands of movies were stored in the hard drive, which now became his only entertainment for relaxing.

It was a bit strange today.

He actually clicked on a romance movie.

In the past, his favorite movies were science fiction and horror movies.

Before the formal appreciation, he went to the ground barefoot and turned off all the lights to save electricity.

Survivors who live outside the black market rarely have motors at home.

They basically rely on batteries to provide lighting and electronic products.

If used sparingly, a set of batteries can last ten days and a half, that is, one charge per charge.

Trouble, if you have a car at home, you can plug in the car battery to charge, but if you don’t have a car, you can only go to the black market and spend a pass to charge it.

His father left him a small Buick car that could no longer be driven.

He asked a black market car dealer and found out that it would cost him at least dozens of passes to repair it.

Even if it was repaired, the gasoline would be very expensive, so he just left it downstairs. .

The romance movie he watched was called Those Years, The Girl We Chased Together.

It seemed to be an old movie from Taiwan.

The heroine was very good-looking, but she just couldn't understand the campus plot of boys and girls studying together and flirting.

He doesn't remember much about his school days.

He only remembers that he had a female classmate who knew taekwondo and was like a tomboy, but she was very kind to him.

He still remembers her name, which was Wanruo.

He lay comfortably on the sand, covered with a warm cashmere blanket, watching the movie about the girl we chased together in those years, and fell asleep unknowingly.

In a daze, he seemed to have returned to a certain excavation work.

On the bed of a house, he found a Japanese inflatable doll.

It was very lifelike.

His heart was pounding and he couldn't help but hug her.

It's crazy, the inflatable doll turned into a real person, a naked beauty.

With her long head, charming eyes, sexy lips, and white skin, she looked a bit like the female host of the Nuclear Corpse Challenge.

Rose is a bit like the heroine among the girls we chased together in those years.

In short, he was deeply fascinated.

He caressed her tip with all his heart.

Unexpectedly, he used force to pull off the long black hair.

He screamed and found that she had become bald.

There seemed to be countless bugs crawling out of the originally white and smooth skin.

Yes, there were blisters of various sizes, which looked disgusting and terrifying.

He screamed in fright and opened his eyes suddenly.

It turned out to be Nan Ke Yimeng.

He was sitting on the sofa dripping with sweat and looked at his watch.

It was after eight o'clock in the morning and he felt that his underwear was wet and cold again.

He rubbed his eyes, got off the sand, and mechanically opened all the curtains as the first thing he did when he woke up every day, letting the gray light shine into the room.

Then he found a pair of clean underwear, took it in his hand, and left.

Enter the bathroom.

When he was changing his underwear, even though he was the only one in the room, he still blushed a little when he saw the puddle of mucus on his underwear and threw it into the big basin.

He put on his dry underwear and peeed happily into the toilet.

He turned to look at the big mirror on the wall and looked at himself: his head was messy and had not been washed for several days, his face was sharply angled, his nose was high, and he was thin.

Thin lips, looking very stubborn.

He is a bit stubborn.

For example, as long as he believes in one thing, he will implement it to the end.

However, there are too few things for him to believe in.

Currently, there is only one thing: he is a waste digger and he wants to survive. .

After peeing, he took a scoop of water from the bathtub next to him and flushed the toilet.

The water was brought from the river nearby.

Although he didn't need to drink the water, he could still flush the toilet and wash clothes.

There is a small red goldfish in the bathtub, which he bought on the black market last year.

Unexpectedly, after living for more than a year, he has regarded it as a member of the family and named it Xiaoqiang.

The meaning of strong survival is to encourage himself.

Of course, he just called it this name in his heart.

He had never thought about talking to a fish stupidly, nor would he talk to himself when he was fine.

It would cause mental distortion.

He would rather spend a few days Don't speak.

He is a normal person, and even though the world is no longer normal, he still strives to be a normal person.

After feeding Xiaoqiang some fish food, he went to the water dispenser to get a glass of water, half for brushing his teeth and half for washing his face.

After washing, he returned to the living room and gym, turned on the computer, played a piano music, and in the melodious music, he did fifty push-ups, thirty sit-ups, and fifty leg presses in order to maintain his daily exercise function. .

He suppressed his annoyance about everything going according to plan after returning home, walked to the kitchen, bent down, took out a large teapot from the kitchen cabinet, put a handful of mung beans in, then went to the water dispenser to get a glass of water, and poured it in.

In the next three or four days, he needs to fill and change the water from the spout of the teapot every day.

The whole process must not be exposed to light.

Once exposed to light, the mung bean sprouts will turn red, bitter and unpalatable.

Mung bean sprouts are something every survivor will do, because mung bean sprouts are the only green food they can afford, safely, and provide essential vitamins and amino acids for the human body.

After doing all this, he returned to the sofa, drank water, ate compressed biscuits, and took vitamin pills.

After completing all the work in the morning, he turned on the computer, lay down on the sofa, and immersed himself in the world of the movie again.

His life was like this, digging wastelands to exchange supplies, returning home to eat and drink, and sleep well.

Although he was only eighteen years old, he had already lived a life of eating and waiting to die.

Except for the occasional thought in his mind to find his father, But this idea is too far away, as far away as a dream.

He just thinks that such a life is very good.

There is no need to change or think about the meaning of life.

Having enough food and drink is the whole meaning of life:
