The defense of the mourning community

The sound of suona pierced through everyone's ears, and it also overwhelmed Brother Suona's lung capacity. He stopped beside Yi Chengli, fighting for this breath. He felt that he might die soon, and maybe he would go to Xitian Bliss in the next second.

Yi Chengli quickly asked him to breathe slowly, don't worry.

Brother Suona waved his hand to show that he was not important. He wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and asked pantingly, "Has everyone calmed down?"

"It's all quiet." Yi Chengli gave him a thumbs up, "Did you blow the assembly call just now?"

Brother Suona paused, feeling that he still had to be alive to spread folk music.After a delay of two seconds, he raised his head and gave Yi Chengli a disgusted look: "If you have time, you can improve your music knowledge, it can still improve your personal cultivation."

Yi Chengli: ...

Yi Chengli: "well, you're right."

After confirming that Brother Suona was fine, Mr. Yi straightened up and looked at the quiet owners around him, stretched out his hand and said, "Everyone, don't panic and get nervous, we have already dealt with the dirt slope outside, and Manager Ling has gone to find Master Liu Let's go to see the switch, everyone, don't panic!"

Qian Meili, who had been trampled on countless feet in the dark, saw that the scene of chaos had been brought under control, and everyone quieted down. She immediately walked to Yi Chengli, the backbone, and looked at everyone and said, "We have replaced the unit gate of the community with The power is normally open, and the door can be opened even if the power is off! Everyone, don’t worry that you won’t be able to go home if the power is off!”

Yi Chengli was taken aback for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "When was it set up? Isn't it usually turned off when the power is turned off?"

"Brother Ling asked us to change it two days ago." Qian Meili said in a low voice and then said loudly: "But please rest assured, the door switch of the underground parking garage is independent, and we set it to turn off the power, even if the power is off now , and there will be no zombies that can open the door from the ground."

Qin Dali, mangzi, and Dalong took turns to appease, and the owners also returned to their families with the help of the flashlight. The fearful heart gradually calmed down, but the sobbing caused by the fear of the future and the dark was too late to stop.

Although comfort is necessary, crying is also a way to vent fear.Yi Chengli didn't say anything after hearing it, but just took out a tissue from his pocket and asked Qianmeili to give it to the owner.

After Yan Shuai made sure that his brother and family members were not injured, he looked at Yi Chengli who was sitting on the ladder and said, "Manager Yi, there should be lighting tools such as candles or flashlights in the convenience store, we can look for them. .”

"I have two camping lanterns at home!" Ms. Liang Xirui, a rock climbing enthusiast, raised her hand and said loudly: "I can go and get one down!"

Yi Chengli looked at her: "Everyone, don't worry, let's wait for Manager Ling to come back, and if we can't call, we'll figure out a solution!"

So everyone waited for a while, and finally came Ling Qing who came back with the flashlight of his mobile phone to light his way. He was panting because of running, but he didn't bring any bright news to everyone.

"Master Liu said that there is no problem with the switch of the electric box." Ling Qing looked at them, "It may be that there is a problem with the wires outside, or it may be that there is a problem with the power plant."

He paused and said, "It means, it's not our problem."

The implication is that the electricity will not come.

Everyone fell into the silence surrounded by the night, even though Ling Qing knew that he would come back this day, his heart couldn't help sinking.A power outage is not just a loss of lights in the dark, but some electrical appliances also lose their vitality.

Electric appliances can’t be charged, so they can’t continue to use. If you can’t watch TV, you can’t connect to the Internet. Regardless of whether the network is affected or not, these mobile terminals will lose power, and everyone will lose access to external information.

Closed will really make people crazy.

"Everyone try to reduce the number of times you use electrical appliances and keep your mobile phone charged. If you have a radio at home, you can try to use the radio to listen to outside news." Ling Qing said.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. In this day and age, most people don’t have a radio at home. They can listen to radio channels on their mobile phones, but how long can they listen to the radio on their mobile phones?

"It's too late now. Although we have cleaned up the dirt slope, it may not be safe outside. Please go home first. We will organize people to go to the convenience store to find if there are any candles, and they will be delivered to everyone's homes later. The rest Let's discuss it tomorrow during the day." As Yi Chengli said, Ling Qing's cell phone rang suddenly.

Ling Qing asked Yi Chengli to say don't worry about himself first, picked up the phone and saw that it was Grandma Zhao's call. When he was at Grandma Zhao's house during the day, he had just saved his mobile phone number as her emergency contact. I didn't expect the call to come now.

Ling Qing quickly picked up the phone and asked, "Grandma Zhao, what's the matter with you? What's the matter?"

After hearing a few sentences, Ling Qing turned around and ran, but after running a few steps, he turned back and asked, "Dr. Meng! Where is Dr. Meng!"

"what happened?"

Yi Chengli immediately jumped off the ladder, Ling Qing rushed over and grabbed his arm, anxiously said: "Grandma Zhao fell down at home, where is Dr. Meng? Dr. Meng will go and have a look with me!"

Yi Chengli paused for a moment, before thinking that this was the first time between the two of them Ling Qing took the initiative to approach him, turned around and shouted at the crowd, "Dr. Meng! Is Dr. Meng there!"

Although Dr. Meng is a neurologist, he can't be picky at this time. A doctor is reliable!As soon as he raised his hand, he was packed and taken away by Ling Qing, and Qian Meili also chased after him.

Yi Chengli shouted loudly at their retreating figures: "Call me if you need anything!"

He stayed where he was to appease the owners, and held up a flashlight to arrange for Dalong and Mangzi to send the owners back according to their building numbers. Perhaps it was the darkness that inspired the memory of ancestors in everyone's blood.

Their sense of security about not being bright made them ask many questions repeatedly, but Yi Chengli and the others suppressed their inner fear and answered the questions over and over again, tirelessly.

Fortunately, the floors in Manhattan are not too high. A building is six stories high, and there is no need for secondary pressurization. The upper floors don't have to worry about water use for the time being.

After he sent everyone back, he couldn't rest immediately. Some owners didn't even have a flashlight at home, so he took several owners to search in the convenience store and found a small pack of candles and a pack of batteries.

After distributing all these materials equally, Yi Chengli drove Qin Dali and the others to rest, and went to Grandma Zhao's house by himself.

Grandma Zhao, who had fallen down, was helped up and lay on the bed. Qian Meili helped grandma change into her pajamas. Dr. Meng was talking to Grandma Zhao, and Ling Qing was heating hot water in the kitchen.

After Yi Chengli entered the door, he first greeted Grandma Zhao and asked a few words. Seeing that Dr. Meng wanted to talk to Grandma, he immediately backed out.He stood in the living room and looked at the decoration of the house, and took a few glances at the family photos hanging on the wall before turning around and going to the kitchen to ask Ling Qing what was going on.

"After the power outage, the old man didn't know what happened. He thought it was a switch problem, so he wanted to stand up and try to turn on the light again, but he fell because he couldn't see the black light." Ling Qing sighed, "Although grandma said she was fine, but How can the old man's body withstand the wrestling?"

Yi Chengli looked at him: "It sounds like you understand old people very well?"

Ling Qing paused her hands, and then said, "My parents passed away early in a car accident, and I grew up under the care of my grandmother's house and my grandparents' house in turn."

"So it's like this..." Yi Chengli laughed, "Although my parents didn't die, it's almost as if they died here."

Ling Qing snorted, poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Yi Chengli, said in a low voice, "We helped grandma up after we arrived, but the first thing the old man said after he recovered was to ask us why she is not dead yet. "

"Everyone in my family is dead, why am I not dead yet?" Ling Qing softly repeated what Grandma Zhao said just now, she couldn't tell what kind of mood she was in now, perhaps death might be better for Grandma than alive.

"So Dr. Meng is chatting with her now?" Yi Chengli asked.

Ling Qing nodded, and walked out carrying the water.

Yi Chengli followed him out and pouted at the family portrait in the living room: "Did you see it?"

"I see." Ling Qing nodded, "When I was cleaning during the day, I heard her talk about something about her family. Her husband passed away very early, and she brought up her children alone."

Speaking of which, a smile hung on Ling Qing's face, then knocked on the door and walked into grandma's room, and asked grandma in a warm voice if she needed water.

Grandma Zhao looked at him with a smile and shook her head, beckoned him to come over and said in a low voice, "Fortunately, you saved your phone number for me, otherwise..."

"It's just a little thing." Ling Qing shook Grandma Zhao's hand, and said in a gentle voice, "Is there anything uncomfortable now? But now I can't go outside, and I can't enter the hospital."

Grandma Zhao shook her head: "It's okay, it's okay. I'm fine, you all go to rest, don't worry about me."

"It is indeed time to rest. It would be better to rest more. I will stay here tonight and observe first." Dr. Meng glanced at the time and asked Grandma Zhao with a smile: "Grandma, I can sleep outside. A sofa?"

Grandma Zhao looked at him: "Yes, yes, but..."

"It's okay," Dr. Meng said, "Do you have many quilts at home?"

Grandma Zhao nodded and told them where the quilt was. The three of them helped Dr. Meng arrange a sleeping place before leaving Grandma Zhao's house.

It is really inappropriate to say too much tonight.

Because of the power outage, the three of them had to take the stairs to go home. Yi Chengli looked at Ling Qing and asked, "The water in the thermal power plant is used for heating. Now that the power is out, the heating should also stop."

Ling Qing shook her head: "I don't know, but you have to be prepared. It was said before that the cold wave will come. If there is no heating, the temperature in the room will drop. It will be too difficult. If you get sick, it will be even worse."

Yi Chengli nodded in agreement.

Yi Chengli, who forgot to get a candle for himself when he got home, thought he was going to take a bath in disgrace, but Ling Qing took out a large pack of candles from the cabinet, pulled the curtains and lit the candles, and the lights in the house lit up again.

"How many roots?" Yi Chengli asked.

Ling Qing: "Three big boxes can burn until you die."

Yi Chengli: ...

Yi Chengli: "It's true that you have a better move."
