Catastrophe.

After the sudden catastrophe, the land was devastated, species mutated, food was scarce, living conditions were poor, the era was completely destroyed, and civilization was gone.

……

On an unnamed street 300 kilometers to the left of the Ninth Special Economic Zone, a 23-year-old young man walked briskly with his head bowed and his arms in the unplanned ** area.

The streets are dilapidated and ugly, the underground sewerage system was completely paralyzed for an unknown number of years, and the stench of improvised outdoor toilets is connected to the rows of stores. The whole area is rarely lit, and a group of people can be seen standing together on the side of the road from time to time, but there are more women and fewer men.

The young man who walked briskly and did not squint, named Qin Yu, was 1.82 meters tall and sturdy, unemployed today, and was ready to buy an official resident of the Ninth Special Zone to complete the first step of his plan.

Qin Yu originally had long eyebrows and clear eyes, and he was a sunny handsome guy, but now he is dressed a little sloppy, his beard is not shaved, his slightly long hair is sticky together, and his clothes look full of oil stains and stains, in short, he is very inconspicuous in the crowd.

Walking briskly all the way, Qin Yu looked up at the intersection and prepared to return to his residence from the left.

"Little brother, little brother ......!"

A crisp shout sounded, and a woman wearing a washed and somewhat whitish dress wrapped in a coat gently tugged at Qin Yu on the side of the road.

Qin Yu was stunned for a moment, and looked back: "What are you doing?" ”

"Thirty bucks." The woman raised three slender fingers, looked back at the dilapidated storehouse behind her, and whispered, "Let's go there." ”

"Hehe, I can't afford to play." Qin Yu smiled and continued walking.

"Wait." The woman stretched out her hand and tugged Qin Yu again: "Twenty-five, twenty-five lines?" ”

Qin Yu looked back at the woman, paused for a while and continued to shake his head: "I don't have any money." ”

"Didn't take a fancy to me? There were still people in the house. ”

"I really don't have any money." Qin Yu shook his arm: "You let go of me, I'm in a hurry to go home." ”

The woman bit her red lip, grabbed Qin Yu tightly with her little hand, and was silent for a long time before adding softly: "Two bowls of rice are fine, but you have to use my bowl." ”

Qin Yu frowned: "Did I say it, get out!" ”

The woman still didn't let go, and looked back at a group of seven or eight-year-old children next to the store and said, "...... I have three children, and I can't support them if I don't have a business tonight...... Little brother, you can do it, you can help me once, a bowl of rice is fine, I will kneel down for you. ”

Qin Yu looked at the woman and said indifferently: "How many years has the world been like this?" In such an environment, without the ability to feed, what do you give birth to? ”

The woman froze.

Qin Yu threw away his arms vigorously, pulled his clothes and continued to move forward.

After standing in place for a long time, the woman quickly ran back to the store and said breathlessly: "That person has it, he has it." As I dragged him, I saw something in his arms. ”

……

About half an hour later.

Qin Yu returned to a dilapidated six-story building, followed the old and dusty steps, and entered his home on the fifth floor.

This building is only inhabited by Qin Yu and his friend Xiaozhuang, and many of the outer walls have collapsed, and it is a dangerous building on the verge of demolition before the next day. But in this day and age, the meaning of home is limited to where you are, and it has nothing to do with where you live. Qin Yu chose this place because he had no electric lights and no water source, and he didn't need to bear any expensive living expenses.

The room is very simple, one bed, two broken cabinets, no entertainment facilities, the only one that has been turned over is a military fan magazine, and the release date on it is still 2019.

After entering the house, Qin Yu took off his dirty coat, took out a polished and shiny canvas bag from his arms, cautiously came to the bedside, picked up a broken bowl, and began to fill out tempting white rice from the inside, and opened his mouth to shout: "Xiaozhuang, is the rice ready?" ”

"Not yet, I just came back." After someone in the back room responded, a young man of the same age as Qin Yu walked out, with dark skin and a resolute face.

"Pedal Pedal Pedal T

Just as Qin Yu was about to talk to Xiao Zhuang, there was a sudden deafening sound of footsteps downstairs. He was stunned for a moment, then hid the bag and bowl in the cupboard and walked to the door, which consisted only of a dilapidated wooden door.

In less than ten seconds, seven or eight children under the age of ten appeared in the stairwell, leading dozens of men and women.

The staircase was outside, the cement was cracked, the iron railing was aging, so many people rushed up together, and the pace was so rapid that the building seemed to shake for a while.

Qin Yu immediately stretched out his hand and shouted, "Don't ...... Don't be so fierce, damn it, the stairs are going to collapse. ”

"Uncle, hungry."

"Uncle, I want to eat......."

“……！”

The children each took a small bowl and stood on the stairs, looking at Qin Yu dirty.

"Uncle is also hungry, did you have dinner at home, didn't you eat a piece of us?" Qin Yu replied with a hippie smile.

The children have pure eyes and simple thinking, but the adults behind them have torn off the most basic disguise of people. A stout man with a bald head was the first to shout, "Take the grain, you won't be able to go down if you don't take it." ”

"I don't have any food," Qin Yu waved his hand and replied, "I really don't." We are all hungry ghosts in this planning area, it is not easy, if I really have it, not to mention protecting you, at least I will give ....... ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I saw you carrying food." The strong man continued to shout: "Hurry up, we'll leave after taking it, if you don't want much, just take half of it." ”

"Nope."

Qin Yu shook his head.

"Go into his room." The strong man shouted in a deep voice.

"Uncle, I want to eat."

"Give me something to eat."

“……！”

The crowd swarmed up, and the staircase hanging outside the building shook again, as if it might collapse at any moment.

Qin Yu looked at the crowd, his eyes turned red in an instant, his right leg was raised, his right hand pulled out a dagger on the dirty trouser leg, and shouted at the crowd: "Damn, bullying Lao Tzu is a lone wolf?!" Who is so afraid of death here? I have the food, and I will give it to you when I break the sword. ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and the strong man shouted indifferently: "The child is in front, you stab the child to death first." ”

"What the ......!" Qin Yu was speechless for a while.

"Come into the house and get the food." The strong man waved his hand and roared again.

As soon as the words fell, the people on the steps rushed forward, and the children instantly surrounded them, dragging Qin Yu and shouting, "Uncle, give me something to eat." ”

"Uncle, I haven't eaten in days."

"Get out of here!"

Qin Yu took the dagger and shouted helplessly at the children: "Otherwise, I will really stab, I will stab ......." ”

Inside the house, Xiao Zhuang saw a conflict at the door, and immediately stepped forward to stop Qin Yu, shouting at everyone: "Don't be impulsive, if you have something to say." ”

The children were so hungry that they weren't afraid of anything, they only pestered Qin Yu, and the adults in the rear had already squeezed up from the gap.

Qin Yu was sturdy, took a step sideways and stuck at the door, staring at the beads of his eyes and shouting: "Lao Tzu only lives himself, don't force me!" ”

The crowd rushed to the door frantically, and no one paid attention to Qin Yu's words.

Qin Yu has been dragged by the low-headed children to the door, but he can't really stab him, so he can only struggle his body and prepare to deal with the adults who come up.

"Uncle, just give me a bowl of rice......

"Get out!"

When a teenage child dragged Qin Yu hard, the latter shook his arm sharply, ready to break free, but he didn't expect the child to hit the crowd rushing up, and then his steps were unsteady, and his back fell out of the gap in the iron fence.

"Ahh

A child's frightened scream echoed for a long time.

"Bang!"

The sound of the body hitting the ground echoed downstairs.

Qin Yu and Xiao Zhuang were stunned, gasping and looking at the iron railing, a little at a loss for a while.

The crowd was quiet, and the stairs returned to calm.

"Kid, that kid fell." Xiao Zhuang took the lead in roaring urgently.

Dozens of people turned their heads to look downstairs, their expressions blank, and they were silent for less than two seconds, and then they collectively turned their heads again. The child's mother was stunned for a long time, and then rushed downstairs with a snort.

Qin Yu was stunned.

"Grain."

"The children have fallen, and they will definitely not be allowed to leave if they are not given food."

"Robbed him."

“……！”

The shouting was earth-shattering and imposing, and none of the rest of the crowd turned to look at the child who fell downstairs, but continued to huddle together and rush in.

Xiao Zhuang stood at the door, staring at the crowd with beads in his eyes, and knew very well that if he didn't have some blood today, he would definitely have to fight for his life, so he licked his lips and shouted: "Okay, you Niu B, I admit it, Lao Tzu recognizes it...... I'll get it for you. ”

Hearing this, Qin Yu immediately grabbed Xiao Zhuang's arm and ordered in a low voice: "Can't give, can't give at all." ”

Xiao Zhuang looked at the crowd outside the door, stared at the beads of his eyes and responded: "The food has leaked, if you don't give some sweetness, these people will definitely not be able to leave." ”

"It's more troublesome if you give sweetness." Qin Yu responded in a very serious tone: "I'd rather work hard than let go." ”

"!" Xiao Zhuang had a different opinion from Qin Yu, he insisted and said: "You have a bang, but there are so many people outside, are you sure to suppress them?" If we can't hold it down, then we must be robbed. They're already red-eyed, can't you see it? ”

"You'll be done listening to me, I'll go back and get the ring."

"Xiao Yu, didn't you see it? The child fell and they didn't leave, and the gang had no reason ....... Xiao Zhuang pulled Qin Yu's arm away and responded in a low voice: "The two of us have enough to eat, and those who should be exchanged for money have also been exchanged for money, giving them a bowl of rice is not a big loss for us, so I don't want to gamble my life." I have my share of the grain, and I have the right to decide what to do with it. ”

Qin Yu was speechless when he heard this.

Xiao Zhuang straightened his position, stared at the leader and shouted at the strong man: "The way to survive in the planning area and the planning area, take the rice, don't make any more trouble, get out of here!" ”

"If you don't die of hunger, you must get out immediately." The leading strong man nodded.

Xiao Zhuang retreated when he heard the sound, walked back to the house and took a big bowl of rice, and put it on the ground with a bang: "Get out." ”

Dozens of people looked at the rice on the ground, and all of them had greedy looks in their eyes, but none of them took the initiative to take it.

The leading strong man was silent for a few seconds, reached out and pulled off the cloth bag tied around his waist, and poured the rice into it in one go.

"Get out of here!" Xiao Zhuang drove away impatiently.

The crowd stood at the door and did not move, and the leading strong man looked at the two, tied the rice to his waist with sweat on his forehead, and did not leave immediately.

"I let you go, don't you understand?" Xiao Zhuang frowned and drove away again.

After a moment of silence, no one in the crowd shouted, "Fuck, he can give us a bowl of rice, or at least a big bag of rice!" ”

"Give some more, there are too many people, and these can't be eaten at all."

"Give rice."

"Otherwise, if you go in and grab it, what's there to talk nonsense."

“……！”

The shouts and scolding once again spread throughout the six-story building, and this time someone in the crowd secretly took out knives and murder weapons, and looked at Xiaozhuang with gloomy eyes, with an expression of no gratitude at all......

The leading strong man spread out his palms and said in a low voice: "You also saw it, these people are crazy with hunger, I can't hold it down at all, otherwise you take out the rice bag, and we will take half of it." ”

"You fucking ......!" Xiao Zhuang was anxious and took out the knife from his arms.

"What are you doing, you want to fight?"

"Afraid of you? I'm going to starve to death when I'm hungry, are you still afraid of using knives and guns? ”

“……！”

Everyone was not afraid of Xiaozhuang at all, and followed the strong man to rush into the house.

Xiao Zhuang was stunned, standing in place and at a loss. He wanted to do it at the moment, but he didn't have the confidence to calm down the food grabbers in front of him who were going crazy; But if you don't do it, you obviously can't protect your own things.

"Quack, quack!"

At this moment, Qin Yu pulled out a twenty-centimeter-long, three-barrel rotating large-caliber pistol from the cabinet, turned the sleeve for the first time, and loaded the bullet.

When the crowd saw the gun, they instinctively stopped.

Qin Yu took out a whole big bag of grain from the cabinet expressionlessly, threw it on the floor and shouted: "The food is all here, you can come up and get what you want to eat." ”

The crowd was silent.

"Who are you scaring about?" The leading strong man shouted with red eyes: "If you don't have food, you're dead, are we afraid that you will get a broken gun?" ”

Qin Yu tilted his neck and looked at the other party, pointed at the grain bag with his left hand and shouted: "The grain is here, you can take it away with your long hands, you come up?!" ”

The leading strong man only hesitated for half a second, then turned around and shouted: "There are so many of us, he just has a gun, I don't believe he can kill them all." ”

After speaking, the leading strong man stepped forward and reached out to grab the grain bag.

"Kang!"

Shots rang out, gears turned.

After the leading strong man flew out half a meter away, blood spilled on the floor, and a large hole was blasted out of his chest.

Qin Yu held a gun in his right hand and shouted without a wave: "If there is no food to eat, you may starve to death in a few days." But now whoever reaches out first will kill him with one shot. ”

When they heard this, they all looked at each other and said nothing.

"I have two more bullets, can you take them?" Qin Yu suddenly asked with a burst of applause.

The crowd took two steps back.

Qin Yu stepped forward, bent down to untie the grain bag that the strong man tied to his waist, and shouted in a low voice: "Xiaozhuang, take the things, let's go." ”

Xiao Zhuang heard the sound and immediately returned to the house.

Qin Yu held a gun in his right hand and shouted, "Two rows of yards, give way to me." ”

The crowd didn't move.

Qin Yu raised his hand and pointed the muzzle of the gun at the person closest to him and shouted, "Let me or not?" ”

The man hesitated for half a second and immediately got out of the way, and the rest of the people followed suit to get out of the way.

Five minutes later, Qin Yu walked downstairs and saw the mother holding the child who had been injured by the fall and was crying.

Qin Yu was silent for a few seconds, then stretched out his hand and threw the rice that was given to the strong man just now and said, "They will come down immediately, you hide the grain." ”

The mother was stunned for a moment, and immediately took the grain bag and responded: "Thank you, thank you, I will kowtow to you, and if you have food, you don't have to die......." ”

Qin Yu led Xiaozhuang and quickly disappeared into the night.

……

At three o'clock in the morning, in the endless Gobi Desert, Qin Yu divided the grain and threw it to Xiaozhuang and said, "Take your things, let's separate." ”

Xiao Zhuang was stunned and asked very puzzled: "As for it?" Isn't it just that we just disagreed...... I don't think I'm ...... myself. ”

Qin Yu waved his hand and interrupted: "Xiaozhuang, if people and people are not the same way, don't get together, it's easy to hurt you and me." I'm going to District 9...... Take care of yourself. ”

After speaking, Qin Yu turned around and left without any nostalgia, and ran to the first stop of his new life, the Ninth Special Zone.

……

In the army barracks area to the left of the planning area, a black man with big white teeth asked in fluent Chinese: "I was shot inside just now, do you need to take a look?" ”

"Look at the ghost, there is food grabbing here every day, people are dying, and they dare to ambush the troops' vehicles, how old are we......?" An old cannon in the room, smoking inferior dry smoke, lazily lying on the old wooden bed responded.
