He had a very exciting dream.
He was on an unprecedented battlefield.
Looking down from the air, two huge armies were fighting.
One part of the army was surrounded by another part of the army in a large yard.
He was among the surrounded ones.
Troops, surrounded by a ring of cannon.
The gate of the courtyard was breached by the opponent, and the enemy soldiers poured in like ants exploding a nest.
He saw the cannon beside him blast out, blasting several enemy soldiers at the front to pieces.
He turned his head away because he couldn't bear to witness it, but his eyes turned back as if being attracted, and fell on the broken flesh and blood.
Suddenly, he saw a huge cannonball flying towards him, and he was frightened to death.
He screamed "Ah" and opened his eyes.
Then a pair of small hands covered his mouth, and a pleasant voice like a thief reminded him in his ear: "Shh, don't let anyone hear it.
Get up soon.
It will be dawn." ” He squinted his sleepy eyes and stretched out in the darkness, and then he remembered that he was sleeping in the basement.
When he looked at the luminous display of his watch, he saw no, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.
The main door of the basement was locked, and the two of them sneaked out of the emergency exit.
The emergency exit was very secret, located at a side door that they had never seen before, and there was a high wall outside.
He and she were stunned as soon as they came out.
They saw heavy gray goose-feather snow floating all over the sky in the gray sky.
There was only a thin layer on the ground.
It had obviously just fallen for a while.
The two of them shuddered at the same time and looked at each other, knowing what the second snowfall meant.
He glanced at the nuclear radiation meter on his arm.
It suddenly changed color and exceeded the safe value.
He hurriedly took out the gas mask from his backpack and put it on her face.
She raised her hands as if she wanted to stop him, but then lowered them down, letting him put on the mask for her.
Then she also took off her backpack, took out a white gas mask, and handed it to him.
He knew that he was wrong.
She also wore a gas mask, and it was a full-face type.
It was much more advanced than the black gas mask that only covered his face.
She scratched her head in embarrassment: "Auntie, take my Give me back the pig’s nose.”
"Pig nose" is the survivor's nickname for the gas mask.
She unceremoniously stretched her "pig nose" in front of him and said: "Stop rubbing your nose and act like a man, okay?"
He couldn't say anything else, so he had to put on her gas mask, and a faint fragrance came to his nostrils.
After all, it was a girl's thing.
He thought again, was this an exchange?
It seemed that he had taken advantage again.
He and she returned to the fortress through the side door, but they saw that the first floor was like a pot exploded.
People rushing in for the morning market rushed in desperately to avoid the sudden rise in nuclear radiation outside, while those who stayed overnight inside did not know what had happened and were frightened.
Having to hide in all directions, the two of them were caught in the tidal wave of people, and they invariably grabbed each other's hands.
Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, he held on to her more and more, just like he held on to his father back then.
However, this time, he felt that he was the father, and she was him back then.
The radio in the black market rang at the right time, reminding everyone not to panic, and more security guards were deployed to maintain order.
The crowd gradually calmed down, but everyone's eyes were filled with fear, as if the end was coming.
After all, it fell in one summer.

Two snowfalls were unprecedented.
The two of them leaned against a corner, took off their gas masks, and adjusted the masks on their faces to calm down.
He originally wanted to exchange their gas masks for each other, but she ignored them, as if they had made the exchange and would not regret it.
"You can't go out for at least half a month, what will you do?"
She sounded as if she wasn't worried about herself.
"Auntie, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain.
Don't worry, we will definitely be able to carry it through."
He assured him by patting his chest, as if he had the courage to withstand the sky if it fell.
"Haha, you are really optimistic."
She chuckled.
"Well, fortunately we are in the fortress and avoid the dangers on the road.
Let's live here for half a month."
He was not blindly optimistic.
He pointed to the advertisement on the electronic screen above his head.
"There are plenty of items in the grocery area.
Welcome."
Credit."
This is a common practice in the black market.
During disasters or winters, Sanpu will provide items on credit to survivors.
As long as they are converted into passes and repaid within a certain period of time, no interest will be charged.
It's not that the three giants are compassionate, but they want to prevent the survivors from causing riots.
What's more, if the survivors are all dead, the black market will have no meaning in existence.
The three giants are not worried about credit holders defaulting on their debts, because in this city, no one can leave the black market and survive alone.
"You wait here, I'll get some food on credit."
He walked through the crowd and walked towards the grocery area.
He carried a pile of food and walked to the trading counter, where there were already several long lines.
When it was his turn, he reported his name and pressed his fingerprint.
Unexpectedly, the administrator said: "Your name is Xiao Ming."
Well, sorry, your credit limit has been exhausted."
"Ah" he was speechless before he remembered his loan.
He didn't expect that there was a credit line on the black market.
This was the first time he knew about it.
After all, he had never taken out a loan before.
With his hands empty, he returned to the place dejectedly, only to find that she had disappeared.
He wondered in his heart, did she leave without saying goodbye when she saw that he had not brought anything to eat?
Maybe she was worried that he would use her credit.
Quota.
He thought like this and didn't mean to blame her.
Originally, the survivors were all looking after their own affairs, and the couple would go their separate ways when the disaster struck.
Besides, he and she had only met twice.
He just regretted that after giving her four of the twenty passes he borrowed, the rest would have been enough for a month if he had exchanged them for survival necessities, but he had spent them on a game where he couldn't eat or drink. , It really deserves it.
In fact, he also knew that he didn’t blame himself, but God.
It was such a hot summer, and there were two consecutive gray snowfalls.
Wasn’t this an intentional attempt to kill someone?
Could it be that God wanted to take me away?

He sat down in the corner and was feeling sorry for himself when he saw two small gray hiking boots parked in front of him.
He immediately raised his head in surprise.
Who could she be if he didn't think she had escaped?
"You brat, please help me, I can't hold it anymore."
She was holding a big bag, her face covered.
"Hey" he jumped up happily, not for anything else but because she didn't abandon him.
"This is what I got on credit.
It's enough for you to eat and drink for half a month.
Save it."
She stuffed a whole bag of stuff into him.
"Auntie, I didn't get any food, so why would I want to eat yours?"
he explained embarrassingly.
"I went to the grocery section to look for you just now, and I saw you all.
Everyone is in trouble.
Didn't you help me yesterday?"
She said in a considerate way.
"Okay, I'll lend it to you."
He weighed the contents in the bag.
It was worth more than the four passes.
It seemed that he had taken advantage of her since he had known her.
"Okay, remember to return it to me next time we meet."
She said calmly.
"We have been seeing each other every day for the past half month, and I will pay you back later."
He felt happy from the bottom of his heart when he thought about how he would spend time with her day and night in the next few days.
"Xiao Ming, I have to say goodbye to you now.
I hope we have a chance to see you again."
Her words were like pouring cold water on him.
"Why?
It's such a snowy day, where can you go?"
He stuttered anxiously.
"Don't worry, I have my own place to go.
It's safe.
It's safer than here."
She felt his concern and hurriedly comforted him.
"Really?
That's good."
He still had doubts in his mind, but it was difficult to ask further.
"Xiao Ming, we are destined, I still don't know what you look like" she said with a trace of reluctance.
"I'll show you."
He lifted the mask off his face without hesitation.
"Stop, stop, I only need to see half of your face."
She stopped him.
His hand stopped on the tip of his nose, thinking that the little girl was really weird, how could she only see half of a person's face, and the lower half at that.
"Xiao Ming, remember me, forget me."
She also lifted her mask to the tip of her nose, staring at his exposed hooked nose and thin lips with bright eyes, showing a touching shyness.

Remember you, forget you, what are you talking about?
He was stunned by her contradictory words.
He saw her face approaching quickly, and her red and plump lips quickly pressed on his lips. .
His brain was shaken, and an electric shock-like feeling surged through his body.
This was the first time he had touched a girl's lips in such a long life.
Before he could react, he saw her turn her head and disappear into the crowd.
For a moment, So crazy.
After a long time, he came to his senses, hugged the bag and chased out, but he saw the crowds of people and the masks were densely packed.
Where could he go to find her?
Suddenly he remembered what she said last night, "I don't have anywhere to go."
Why was it only a day later?
, just "I have my own place to go".
Who is she?
Why did she say "remember me, forget me", and finally gave him a parting kiss?
He was confused and distracted, walking around in the crowd, hoping to bump into her.
Ordinarily, she should still be in the fortress.
No one dared to run outside in the most severe nuclear radiation weather, unless they were wearing The kind of advanced protective clothing that works in explosion zones.
He searched almost all over the first, second and third floors, and even risked being discovered by sneaking back to the basement through the emergency passage through the side door to check, but found nothing.
He tried to inquire about her in the miner's exchange area on the second floor, but he couldn't even tell her name.
How could anyone know who she was?
It suddenly occurred to him that she must have kept something on credit in the grocery area. name and fingerprints, but thinking about it again, how could he know which one of those hundreds or thousands of names was hers?
She seemed to have evaporated from the world, leaving no trace behind.
He was left wandering around the fortress filled with melancholy and loss.
"Xiao Ming, come here."
The fat owner of the water shop waved to him with a smile.
"Fat man, what's the matter?"
He thought, and was about to ask the fat boss for news about her.
He was quite sick and hurriedly sought medical treatment.
"How about borrowing some more passes?"
The fat boss patted him on the shoulder.
"Isn't my credit limit exhausted?"
He was a little surprised.
"Hey, other places will no longer owe you credit, but you can continue to borrow from me."
The fat boss winked.
"I won't borrow it anymore.
Everything I need is here."
He patted the bulging backpack behind him, feeling intuitively that the fat boss wouldn't be so generous and must have an ulterior motive.
"Xiao Ming, if it snows now, you won't be able to dig in wasteland for at least half a month.
When are you going to pay back the twenty passes you borrowed?"
The fat man's eyes actually seemed to be hiding a knife in his smile.
"Isn't it just 20% of the daily interest?
Calculate, how much will we pay back in half a month?"
He asked nonchalantly, and he did the math in his mind, adding four more tickets a day, totaling 60 tickets in half a month, plus this Twenty pieces of gold, a total of eighty pieces, is indeed a lot, but as long as you work hard for a few more days, it is not too difficult.
"If you pay it back after half a month, it will cost about 200 passes.
Xiao Ming, you have to make plans early."

The fat boss pretended to be concerned.
"How did you calculate it?"
He was startled and almost jumped.
"Don't worry, it's calculated like this for everyone.
If the profit is compounded, I'll show it to you."
The fat boss had a business-like attitude and picked up the counter and pressed it at him, regardless of whether he could understand it or not.
"Ah, there are so many.
Even if I try to sell iron, I still can't get it.
It's just the snow.
Fatty, we've known each other for a few years, please help me to be accommodating."
Sweat broke out on his forehead, and he never expected that this would be the first time in his life.
A loan has such consequences.
The black market cannot be offended under any circumstances, otherwise it will dig its own grave.
"This is a rule set by Shuitou.
If anyone dares to change it, I can't help you even if I want to."
The fat boss said tactfully.
"What will you do if someone doesn't pay back the money?"
he asked tentatively.
"Then we have to send him to the explosion area to clean up the nuclear debris, and use the remuneration provided by the rescue station to pay off the debt."
The fat boss's eyes gradually turned cold.
"Isn't this murder in disguise?"
His scalp felt numb, and he suddenly thought of his father.
But his father was willing to go to that hell on earth for him.
Who was he doing for her?
"No one wants this, but repaying debts is a matter of course.
Without rules, nothing can be done."
The fat boss said hypocritically.
"Just go, it won't make much difference if you die early or later."
He was a little disappointed, thinking that maybe the father and son would be reunited in the explosion zone.
"Xiao Ming, don't be so pessimistic.
This is not the only choice.
There is another way out.
Do you want to hear it?"
The fat boss squeezed out a trace of smile lines from the corners of his eyes, showing his concern.
He was not stupid, and he almost immediately understood that what the fat boss was about to say was his real purpose, and a glimmer of hope emerged in his heart: "Say it quickly":
