Chapter 13 Chapter 13
From telling him that the doomsday is coming to the present, if the other party intends to deceive him, there are countless opportunities to deceive him, but why at this time, lie about the nanny potion.Seeing County Magistrate Li and Luo Xu chatting affectionately at the meeting, he couldn't help wondering if this was another scam.Maybe the potion hadn't worked at all, but since he had nanny caught in public yesterday, they ganged up on embarrassing him today.
"I think our first task is to get in touch with the outside world. Now that the rain has stopped, we should gather teams to clear the road leading to the outside world."
"But what if the situation outside is worse than ours? Listening to the radio these days, the government is still issuing emergency announcements to the public, saying that an unknown epidemic is breaking out nationwide, telling us not to go out and lock doors and windows. We cleared the roads , not opening the door of convenience to those who are sick."
"Old Xu, do you think we are some kind of sweet pastry here? People all over the country are scrambling to rush to us.",
"Our place is not a sweet pastry, but we have Aunt Li's potion here. I believe that once the news spreads, many people will come to our place. By then, the place will be overwhelmed."
"There is another question, how will the people who have been diseased in this yard be dealt with."
"I have to ask Mrs. Li how much medicine is needed to cure a diseased person."
The nanny whose name was called stood up in a panic. From his angle, Mu Chengrui just saw Luo Xu squeeze the nanny's hand, probably to cheer her up.
"Need a half cylinder."
"That would be a waste of potion, and now the issue of the diseased patients can only be temporarily put on hold. Let's discuss the issue of the living. We can divide the potion prepared by Aunt Li into two parts, and use one for those who have a fever. It may be used by those who use it. Maybe another person with supernatural powers like Comrade Luo Xu can be produced. The second copy will be given to us healthy people, so that we can strengthen our bodies and no longer have fever." County Magistrate Li concluded say.
"There is one more question that may need to be thanked to Comrade Luo Xu. I hope you can strengthen the small courtyard of this building and some government units, so that if something happens, everyone will have a shelter. In the end, do you have any questions?"
Mu Chengrui raised his hands high all by himself.
"Mayor Mu, what's your question?"
"What everyone is discussing is based on the fact that the rainy season is over. If the rain is only temporary, there will be worse weather in the near future. May I ask what the county magistrate thinks we should do at that time?"
As soon as these words came out, the conference room was silent for a while, and then buzzed into a noisy situation.
"What is the basis for Mayor Mu?"
Mu Chengrui fell into silence, he couldn't say that all of this came from Zhang Yanliang's dream.Moreover, there were some discrepancies in Zhang Yanliang's remarks on the nanny's potion, and he didn't dare to take the other party's words too seriously, so he couldn't use an affirmative tone.
"That's just my guess. Didn't County Magistrate Li say he wants to speak freely?"
"Well, if the sunny weather is only temporary as Mayor Mu said, then it doesn't differ much from our plan. We also need Aunt Li's potion and Comrade Luo Xu's ability."
Mu Chengrui still wanted to argue with reason, but the other party waved his hand and told him not to say more.
"Okay, that's all for today's meeting, let's all get to work."
County Magistrate Li motioned for Mu Chengrui to stay, and when everyone filed out, County Magistrate Li was not in a hurry to speak, but just lit a cigarette.
The sky outside the window was clear, but the people in the conference room were not in such a good mood.
"Mayor Mu, I have never asked your source of information, because I believe in you, there is a way to know things that I, an old guy, don't know. Of course, it has indeed developed as you expected. But you What I did yesterday made me a little disappointed.
"Luo Xu is a capable person. You also said before that in the apocalypse, besides zombies, there will also be people with supernatural powers, but compared with zombies, such people are too few and far too few. They are too precious, but you offended him .
"One thing you may not know is that before Luo Xu woke up, the nanny had been secretly feeding him with the medicine she prepared. Of course, this was also a negligence in the work of the hospital, but there are many times in history where there are accidents. It is a coincidence. It can be said that the potion prepared by Aunt Li is indispensable for the birth of Luo Xu.
"After that, we continued to drink Aunt Li's potion for those with fever. It may be that the dose was insufficient, and there was no second Luo Xu. But there were other unexpected effects, and the chances of the fever continued to decrease.
"I don't know where you got the news. You think Aunt Li's potion is fake. But you shouldn't have arrested her yesterday without consulting me. I might say some ugly things up front. If Luo Xu and If you choose between you, I might abandon you and choose Luo Xu."
During the speech of county magistrate Li, Mu Chengrui remained silent.Although he had long expected that such a situation would appear, but at this time, it was impossible to say that he was not sad or lost.But he still didn't say anything, smoked a few cigarettes with the county magistrate in the meeting room, and then went back.
It was still noon when we went back.Thinking that he had nothing to do now, he ran to the kitchen to work, wanting to give the little boy a hearty lunch.It ended up almost burning the kitchen down.
Mu Chengrui looked at his son embarrassedly with a cat face.Qin Muzhou threw him out of the kitchen without saying a word.
After eating, Mu Chengrui sat in the hall and fell asleep.The little boy went to the wing room to continue his blacksmithing work, Mu Chengrui expressed his willingness to help, but was stared blankly by the other party.
Well, who told him that his limbs are not working hard, and he can't distinguish the five grains.He was completely disgusted by his son.But even so, Mu Chengrui felt happy. It would be better if Zhang Yanliang was never around.
But it's good to think about this kind of thinking. According to the degree of intimacy between the boy and the man, if the man suddenly disappeared, it would be no wonder that the boy would pay attention to him!Therefore, he should cultivate more relationships with the little boy, and the process of cultivating relationships cannot do without the help of men.He made up his mind to have a frank talk with Zhang Yanliang when he came back.Ask him if he can help, help him find a way to ease the tension with the pup.Zhang Yanliang should understand him and help him.
Mu Chengrui squinted, lying on the rocking chair, listening to the sound of blacksmithing coming from the wing room, the sound was naturally like the swing of a pendulum.Not long after, the clouds in the sky suddenly turned red, like burning clouds.At first I thought it was the glow of the setting sun, but when I looked at the time, it was only two o'clock in the afternoon.There's something wrong with this.
After a while, the sky began to rain again, and this rain was not the same as before, it was red, with an ominous blood red.Mu Chengrui was still sitting in the room in a daze, with many thoughts flooding his mind.The first thing he caught was what Zhang Yanliang said to him when he left, and the next thing was, what should the county do? Is the situation in the county hospital okay?I don't know what kind of expression County Magistrate Li has when he sees the rain.
How did Zhang Yanliang say that the morbidity rate is very high and contagious, and only a small wound is needed.Too bad, Zhang Yanliang is still outside!
Mu Chengrui stood up suddenly, but someone reacted faster than him, and saw that the little brat came out of the wing fully armed, looking like he was about to go out.
"Qin Muzhou, what are you doing?"
"What do I need to report to you?"
"Stop for me." Mu Chengrui rushed into the rain and stopped him without even thinking.When he walked in, he found that the boy was not only wearing a raincoat, but also holding a black-backed long knife in his hand.It seems that this is the result of his these days.
"You are not allowed to go anywhere!" Qin Muzhou squinted at him, his expression seemed to say, can you control it?Mu Chengrui was a little anxious, and grabbed the knife from Qin Muzhou's hand.The knife had just been sharpened, and there was no scabbard yet. Seeing Mu Chengrui snatching the knife so aggressively, he didn't make much resistance, and the knife was in the opponent's hand.
"You stay in the house for me. Don't you just want to find your adoptive father? You are not allowed to go, I will go." After speaking, he pushed him towards the direction of the room, Qin Muzhou staggered, and stood up again All he saw was the man's back.Qin Muzhou's expression was a little complicated.
As soon as Mu Chengrui came out, he was at a loss as to where to find that guy.When I first came to Zhang Yanliang's house, I saw a Volkswagen in the yard, but at that time he had a special car from the county government to pick him up, so he didn't care.Then the car disappeared, and I figured the guy must have gone there in that Volkswagen.Cherry County is only more than two hours' drive from the gas station, and now it takes one night and one morning. Even if you look for a gas station that may be buried by mudslides, the time may not be too long.Could it be that there was an accident on the road, which reminded him of that strangely empty gas station.
Mu Chengrui quickly denied such an idea, even if something unexpected happens, doesn't that guy have room?He can hide in the space, so he will be fine.What he had to worry about was himself. It was raining red, and he ran out without a raincoat. What if he was infected and turned into a zombie who could only scream.Would he also be locked up in that big courtyard and starve every day?
Mu Chengrui shook his head, trying not to let his imagination run wild. The only way out now is to search along the road to the gas station, so he needs a car.
Mu Chengrui stood on the road to stop cars, and most of them rushed past without even looking at him. It took a long time before a car stopped.When the car owner saw that he was holding a knife, he was so frightened that he ran away.Mu Chengrui said thank you loudly, got in the car and drove to the gas station.
He was familiar with the way to the gas station, even if it was raining red now, he would never go wrong, but the road was blocked by a large mound after a short drive.Vehicles can't drive through at all, unless you abandon the car and climb over on foot.Mu Chengrui was in a bit of trouble. He had climbed over this small mound, so what should he do for the rest of the journey? Should he walk on two legs?He suddenly thought of Zhang Yanliang's space, that guy is convenient, he can store the car in the space, and take it out after climbing to the other side to continue driving.
Mu Chengrui had no choice but to wander around here, thinking that he might meet someone who happened to pass by here.At six or seven o'clock in the afternoon, the sky gradually darkened.The spectacle of red clouds also became somewhat blurred, but the rain was still red.Mu Chengrui was a little tired, but he wasn't worried about the man. If the man went out knowing what was going to happen, he must have a way to deal with such an emergency.Instead, what he was worried about was how he would face the little brat when he went back with nothing, blamed him for not finding his important person, and then rushed into the rain with his head hot.After smoking the last cigarette on his body, Mu Chengrui felt that there was no way to stay outside all the time, so he went back.
