The blizzard is coming: Start zero-dollar shopping in the apocalypse

Chapter 68 The Plague Strikes
After the snow on the road melted quickly, it didn't evaporate much and turned into water. In addition, many water pipes had burst from the previous freeze, and the drainage was completely blocked, so it seemed like there was rising water outside.

Their community is okay, there is an underground parking lot, so the water flows down there, but all the cars in the community are soaked. Of course, there is no place to refuel now, and it is useless without flooding, but at least it looked like it before It's more comfortable.

Before they were soaked in water, Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng walked around and collected two good cars in the space. The two of them cleaned up the space in the previous period and poured out some places. This car can be used anytime in the future. How many more cars should be prepared? tower.

Now the ground is full of dirty water and smells bad. On the ground, garbage that was previously frozen in the snow and corpses that were not handled by family members during the extreme cold are exposed one after another.

There are a lot of rats on the street. The rats are very big, with red eyes, long hair, black color, and thick tails. They look scary and make people feel sick to their stomachs. The most important thing is that these rats are watery.

Of course, some people who were extremely hungry were not in the mood to think so much, so they started catching mice to eat, after all, this thing was meat.

I hope they won't go out when the temperature reaches zero, and they will all stay in the building. Anyway, they have a large place to move around, and they can still go to the rooftop now.

They also thought of a way to deal with domestic garbage. They hung a rope from the top floor to a telegraph pole in an open space opposite, and then directly threw the garbage through the rope to a distance, so that unnecessary people would not go out.

The vegetables they had grown in the house were ready to be eaten. To celebrate, Gu Pan took everyone to eat hot pot.

The tender mutton and fresh vegetables will make everyone cry.

This also gave them more confidence in the next planting.

After a peaceful night, there were many people outside the next day, because the temperature of [-] degrees was what everyone had dreamed of in the past few months.

And now that the snow has melted, it is easier to find food. People who have been hungry for a long time are coming out now and want to find food in places that were previously buried in the snow.

Gu Pan stood in front of the window and looked down. She also knew that this was indeed a good time to look for supplies, but it was also the time when the plague was most common and the death rate was the highest. The supplies in her space were enough for her and her husband to last a lifetime, so there was no need for this. Time to go out and have an adventure.

Anyway, as long as someone has gold in their hands, he will have the materials to exchange. In the future, a box of family planning supplies can be exchanged for two pounds of gold, so he doesn't need to be too anxious.

At this time, Cheng Yang and Chen Lang had already started farming on the roof of the building. They had a lot of strength and energy, and loosening the soil was suitable for them.

The temperature did not continue to rise the next day, but stopped at [-] degrees. Some people in the community were cheering. They felt that the end of the world was over and everything had been restored.

Of course, there are many people like Gu Pan who realize that the plague is coming and start looking for safer places to live.But they don't have enough food, so even if they get to the so-called safe place, it's only temporary. After all, they still have to go out to find food.

This is why Gu Pan couldn't tell the survivors that there was going to be a plague soon, because if he told them, how could they not go find food?
On the morning of the third day, someone was crying downstairs, asking for medical attention, and the voice was very loud.

"I know there is a doctor in your building. Please save my son. He didn't know what he ate. He had diarrhea all night. He is dying. He is still hot and cold now. He vomits after eating. Please help us just this once. If we are going to starve to death and we can’t get food ourselves, we have no shame to beg you. But, as the saying goes, helping the emergency does not help the poor, we really have nothing to do.” A person downstairs The man's voice was loud and full of despair.

Gu Pan picked up the walkie-talkie and said to Feng Zhekai: "Confirm his condition with him. If it is confirmed to be an infectious disease, tell him how to prevent and treat it. You are not afraid of others hearing it. Being heard is also a kind of protection for others. Then make it clear that we have no medicine. Without protective measures, it is useless to have medical skills. The infection rate of this plague is extremely high. If you go to see it, you will only be infected and there is no way to treat it."

Feng Zhekai understood what Gu Pan meant. This was to prevent him from seeking medical treatment in the future, because they couldn't possibly care about it. In this temperature, where could there be any medical treatment?After he agreed, he walked to the window.

Opening the window, Feng Zhekai shouted down: "I am a doctor. Please tell me carefully about the child's condition. How old is the child? When did it start? What did he eat before? What has he been exposed to?"

The man seemed to have seen the savior and said quickly: "My son is ten years old this year. The weather was warm yesterday. In the morning, his grandma took the child out to get some fresh air. They walked around the community. On the way, the child picked up a toy. He was fine when he returned home. I was very happy. I drank a bowl of porridge when I got home and took a nap at noon. When I woke up, I said I felt unwell, but we didn't take it too seriously. In the evening, after eating a piece of steamed bun, I started to have stomach upset and vomiting. We thought it was... When it got cold, I boiled hot water and soaked his feet, but it was of no use at all. Now I don’t even have the strength to vomit, and he has already started to have a high fever.”

After hearing this, Feng Zhekai sighed and confirmed that it was the plague. He said to the people downstairs: "Based on what you described, it is basically certain that your child has dysentery, an infectious disease. If you don't do a good job of killing it after a major disaster, it will be easy." If there is a plague, even though I am a doctor, I have no medicine or any medical equipment. If I go out, it will not have any effect. It will only infect one more person."

After speaking, he cleared his throat and continued: "You should also pay attention to the safety of other people when you go home. If someone at home has symptoms of the plague, isolate them first to prevent others from being infected. When in contact with others, wear a mask. , if you don’t have a mask, use several layers of clean cloth to block the spread of droplets. The water must be boiled before use. It is best not to use contaminated water from outside, because the water has already carried the virus, and the bodies must be burned. Bury it, build up your resistance as much as possible, don't come out easily, if you have to go out, be sure to protect yourself, that's all I can do to help you."

Naturally, these words were not only addressed to the man downstairs, but also to the entire community.

When Feng Zhekai was talking just now, those who had survivors in nearby buildings basically opened their windows to listen to what was going on. When they heard that they were infected with the plague, some people confirmed their previous guesses, some were shocked, and some began to complain. , God won’t let anyone live anymore.

When the man seeking medical treatment heard Feng Zhekai's words, he staggered a few steps, because he himself had thought about it. The old mother was currently serving his son at home, and because the old mother also suspected that he had an infectious disease, he was not allowed to get married. Approach the child and say that she is old and is not afraid of death.

Their family was doing well, because the old man had always been in the habit of stocking food, so the family was lucky enough to survive until now. The temperature had risen in the past two days, and the old man and his children had all gone out for a walk, but unexpectedly they were infected with the plague.

What else could he say?There is indeed no refutation of what the doctor said. There is no medicine or medical equipment. If the doctor goes to see it, what else can it do if the diagnosis is confirmed?
The man didn't speak, and walked desperately towards his building.
