Jiang Miaomiao never thought about being rescued. After all, he has food and drink in his life now, and he has installed electricity, so he has a very leisurely life.
But I haven’t seen other people for more than half a year, and it is inevitable to be alone.
So when she found out that it was an airplane, she almost subconsciously waved and shouted at the window.
The plane had flown far away, and the people inside probably didn’t see her, didn’t turn around, and flew towards the distance until it turned into a small black spot and disappeared into the skyline.
She looked at the sky, feeling lost in her heart.
Calculating carefully according to the original timeline, those survivors who fled the city have established a base that can barely meet the needs of life under the leadership of the government, reclaiming wasteland, raising chickens and ducks, and at the same time working hard to produce weapons in an attempt to restore social order. .
It’s just that the frequent disasters later, heavy rains, snowstorms, hail and drought, as well as the zombies’ surprise attacks from time to time, all make this goal difficult.
They will encounter those, and she may also encounter them.
And because there are too few partners around, it is difficult to get up again after suffering a serious injury.
Is the people inside the besieged city better, or is she better out of the besieged city?
Jiang Miaomiao sighed, closed the window, fry the vegetables out of the pot, brought them upstairs and asked Lu Qiming to eat together.
The latter took a nap for less than an hour before regaining his vigor, like a super mobile phone charged for five minutes and talking for two hours.
“Today’s fried noodles are delicious, Miao Miao, your craft is getting better and better.”
He was full of praise and gave her a thumbs up.
Jiang Miaomiao was not deceived by him, “Don’t think that you say that, I will cook for you every day.”
He laughed twice, “I’m the truth, don’t think I’m so cunning.”
“If you are not cunning, the foxes will be stupid and sweet.”
He ate for a while, and saw that she was always absent-minded, and couldn’t help asking:
“What happened?”
There is electricity available now, and it can be used every day.
According to her character, she would have been a fool if she was all right.
Jiang Miaomiao didn’t want to conceal it, but when he asked, he told me about the plane.
“It’s the first time I have seen a plane passing through the city in the past six months. Are they planning to come back? Or are they searching for survivors?”
Lu Qiming thoughtfully held his chopsticks.
“What’s the flying altitude of that plane?”
“Huh?”
“A little higher or lower than the planes you’ve seen before in flight?”
He changed his description in a way that was easier to describe.
“Lower, much lower!”
Jiang Miaomiao said, “I feel it almost hit the roof over there.”
If it is at a normal flying height, then it is likely to have other targets, but it just happens to be from here. Pass by, don’t care too much.
But flying so low, then there are ten goals-this city.
Whether it is for rescue or something else, it is not easy to say for the time being.
Lu Qiming’s expression became severe, and he put down his chopsticks.
“Do you want to be rescued?”
Jiang Miaomiao thought hard and shook his head.
He wondered, “Why?”
“If we are rescued, should we be taken to the base and live with other survivors?”
She curled her lips with her chin in her hands.
“I have no EQ. I’m lazy and useless. I don’t like to engage in interpersonal relationships. It’s okay to have one or two people. I have a bunch of people around me every day. I’m not used to it. And the materials in the base are estimated to be allocated on demand. Maybe it’s according to my liking. In addition, I can’t be idle and don’t work. I probably have to go to work every day. Where can I be so free now.”
“Are you sure?” Lu Qiming raised his eyebrows, “We It is now at ease, but the supplies on hand will always be used up for a day. At that time, the ground will not work every day. If you stay in the base, the government will not watch everyone starve to death.”
“Materials. When we run out, we will look for it again. We can find it the first time, and we will definitely find it the second time.”
He shook his head.
“The situation will be different then. We can find a supermarket now because the time is short and many things can be used. No one has been producing it. One or two years will be fine. After four or five years, where can I find supplies? “
Jiang Miaomiao looked awkward.
“Uh, if I can’t find it…”
“Just commit suicide?” There
was a joking smile on his face, apparently mocking her previous plan.
Jiang Miao hummed angrily and grabbed his hand.
“I’m not, now you think I’m dead, I won’t die. I can’t find anything to eat, so I will pester you, and those who don’t eat will not let go!”
Lu Qiming smiled bitterly, but he felt sweet in his heart.
“It seems that I have found an ancestor for myself.”
She curled her lips and was about to eat noodles. Suddenly she remembered that he hadn’t stated his position and asked:
“What about you? Do you want to be rescued?”
If the two people’s wishes are completely opposite, then But it is troublesome.
Lu Qiming shook his head.
“I don’t want to.”
“Why?”
He tilted his head and his pupils were bright like stars.
“Because you marry a chicken with a chicken, and a dog with a dog.”
“…”
Jiang Miaomiao was stunned for a while, lowered her head, bit her lip and laughed.
The two reached an agreement that Jiang Rourou was disqualified to protest because he couldn’t speak, and he stayed with them in the supermarket.
There is electricity in the room, which makes their quality of life improve.
The air conditioner has basically never stopped, and it is as cool as spring 24 hours a day. The refrigerator is always full of drinks, drink one bottle and put one bottle in.
There is ice cream powder in the supermarket. Jiang Miaomiao tried to make ice cream in the refrigerator.
The results are mediocre, but the taste is very good, adding an extra choice to their recipes.
At the same time, electronic products such as mobile phones, computers, and kindles have also resumed use.
For almost ten days, the two did not go out at all, lying on the comfortable big round bed, each holding a mobile phone to play games.
If you’re too hungry, guess the boxer and decide who will cook.
After having been so salted for a long time, one day Lu Qiming suddenly struggled to get up, threw his mobile phone away, and looked at the empty drink bottles in the room and said,
“It can’t go on like this anymore!”
Solar energy is installed to make them live a healthier life. ,more convenient.
Instead of turning them into pigs.
Jiang Miaomiao raised his head, moved his gaze from the screen of the phone to his face, and touched his increasingly full belly.
“What else should I do?” The
teacher is in charge of school, and the boss is in charge of work.
They are neither students nor social animals. They live completely self-sufficient, without financial pressure, and have no goals to strive for.
Lu Qiming thought for a while, rolled over and got out of bed, made a way out of the pile of drink bottles, kicked the little fat dog beside the door, opened the door and walked out.
When I came back, I had more paper and pen in my hand.
“Come on, set up the written evidence.”
There is nothing more alert than sticking to the wall in black and white.
The two gathered around a large blank sheet of A1, carefully arranging their future lives.
In order for a comfortable life to continue, they must complete the following tasks: grow vegetables, patrol, and organize supplies.
The purpose of growing vegetables is to satisfy the appetite and enrich nutrient intake.
The purpose of patrolling is to find zombies in time and ensure personal safety.
The purpose of arranging materials is to keep track of the quantity of materials at all times, and immediately find ways to replenish what is lacking.
The last piece of work is relatively large, and the two will complete it together. Vegetables go to Jiang Miaomiao, and patrols go to Lu Qiming.
In addition, cleaning is also a very important task.
They are all people with hands and feet, and they can’t live in the garbage every day.
However, no one is willing to do this errand. It will be blocked for a long time. Jiang Miaomiao suggested:
“Let’s let the electrical appliances do it.”
There are so many electrical appliances in the supermarket, and they can be put into use now.
There is a dishwasher for washing dishes, and a sweeper for sweeping the floor. Why bother to do it yourself?
It doesn’t matter if the power of the solar system is small, it doesn’t need to be used every day.
Use it every three or four days, turn off the refrigerator and air conditioner before use, take a short rest, and turn it on again when it is used up.
Since there is no tap water, the washing machine cannot be used temporarily. After all, the water consumption is too considerable, and it is distressing to use all mineral water.
The clothes are still washed by their own hands, and the cooking takes turns. Everyone has one meal, and no one suffers.
After the assignment was completed, Lu Qiming wrote the terms on white paper, and the two signed them and affixed them to the bedside. When they woke up in the morning, they could see them as soon as they opened their eyes.
Jiang Miaomiao looked at the piece of paper, his heart straightened.
“How does it feel like signing a contract for sale.” I
woke up in the middle of the night and saw it, thinking that I had to do so much tomorrow, I was afraid that I could not sleep with worry.
Lu Qiming rolled his eyes.
“Yes, you sell me half, and I sell you half. I am one hundred and sixty catties, you are eighty catties, and I stick you forty catties for
nothing .” She akimbo unconvinced.
“I have gained weight, now I am over ninety.”
Lu Qiming said, “Isn’t it just because I posted it in vain.”
“I, I also brought a dog.”
Jiang Rourou has rushed for fifty catties and won’t look back. The weight is considerable.
He sneered, “Come on, just your stupid dog, who can do nothing but eat and drink. I think the only effect is that it will be too gluttonous in the future. Stew it and eat it.” He
lay in the corner. Jiang Rourou suddenly felt a murderous intent while sleeping well, twisting his little fat butt into Jiang Miaomiao’s arms and begging for a hug.
Jiang Miaomiao hugged it and couldn’t help but warn Lu Qiming.
“You are joking, but you are not allowed to really attack it.”
Lu Qiming raised an eyebrow. “You have eaten salted fish and bacon and ham sausage for more than half a year, don’t you be greedy for the fresh meat?”
She pursed her lips and said nothing.
He is persuasive.
“Do you like braised pork? Braised dog meat is also delicious. Pick the fattest part and cut into pieces, put the star anise, cinnamon, ginger, garlic, cooking wine and stew for two hours, then add sugar. Boil the soup until it is thick and greasy. Bright, the chopsticks make it even if you stir it. Each piece of meat is simmered so softly, soaking up the soup. Take a bite…Tsk.”
He smacked his mouth twice, as if he really tasted meat.
Jiang Miaomiao was so eloquent by him that he was full of yearning for the taste he described.
Looking down at Jiang Rourou subconsciously, he licked his lips.
Jiang Rou’s eyes were panic, and he arched her arms cautiously.
She moved her heart and shook her head vigorously to regain her composure.
“It’s a pity that you don’t go to be a fortune teller, so you can fool you. But I’m not fooled by you.”
Lu Qiming shrugged, his expression seemed to be a smile.
“It’s okay, I’m not in a hurry. Now that the supplies are sufficient, it’s normal not to be gluttonous. In another year or a half, there will be nothing to do, I am afraid I will not be able to stop you.”
Jiang Miaomiao imagined the future Really worried about the scene.
She raised Jiang Rourou as a companion, and would never be hungry if she had one bite of her own.
But when it comes time to starve to death? Can you hold back such a large amount of meat?
Thinking about it, she shivered abruptly and hugged the dog in her arms.
There must be vegetables and meat as well, and she will definitely not usher in such a cruel choice.
Lu Qiming made the dinner that day. Jiang Miaomiao took a shower and sat in the room waiting for dinner. He had nothing to do and looked at the scenery outside the window.
There were a few clouds sparsely floating in the sky. Because of what happened in the morning, she always felt that if she was not paying attention, there would be planes flying out of the clouds.
Since you have decided not to accept assistance, it is best not to attract the attention of others to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Will the solar panels on the roof be too conspicuous?
But if it is covered with something, there will be no sunlight and no electricity generation.
She struggled, and suddenly there was a knocking outside the window.
Jiang Miaomiao thought it was a zombie, reflexively took out the gun from under the pillow, and after a closer look, it was a bird.
The bird is gray and black, and a little bigger than her palm. Probably hungry, I want to peck through the glass and get in to find food.
The zombies can’t fly, so only the creatures on the ground are wiped out, which has little effect on the birds living in high places.
Jiang Miaomiao has lived in the city since he was a child, and the biggest contact with birds is that the old people living upstairs always like to put bird repellents on the balcony.
When the ultrasound is turned on, there will be a very faint “sizzle” sound. The parents can’t hear it. Only her ears are good. During the college entrance examination period, she was utterly debilitated by noise.
She doesn’t know what kind of bird this bird is, because it’s been too long.
I haven’t touched other creatures, so I want to put it in for fun.
When she stretched out her hand to open the window, a thought came to her mind-she can’t find chickens and can raise birds.
Birds are also meat. Bird eggs can still be fried with poached eggs, which tastes equally delicious.
They have a lot of rooms now, and they have a few rooms to raise birds. They have tons of rice and beans in their hands, and they can’t finish it. Feeding more than a dozen birds is not a problem.
Grab some of both males and females and let them multiply.
Part of the eggs laid is used to incubate the birds, and part of the eggs are used to eat. After the birds are raised, they can pluck their hair and stew the soup, and the taste of pigeon soup is not worse than chicken soup.
She was eager to try, and immediately opened the window, and couldn’t wait to welcome the other person in.
Unexpectedly, the bird was very vigilant and found someone behind the glass and immediately spread its wings and flew away.
Jiang Miaomiao rushed for a moment, but was not disappointed.
Nowadays, there are no people living in urban and rural areas, there is no food in the ground, and the birds are too hungry. They will definitely look for food everywhere.
They have rice in their hands, so they don’t worry that the other party won’t throw themselves into the net.
When eating, she told Lu Qiming this idea, and the other party frowned.
“Are you serious or joking?”
Jiang Miaomiao: “…Of course you are serious!”
“A bird will go from incubation to adulthood. It will take more than half a year. After being raised, the meat will be pitiful, not enough for us. It’s too inefficient to eat two bites per person.”
“No matter how low the efficiency is, there is always meat to eat, and the birds are also divided into sizes. Of course, it is not enough to raise a sparrow, but if you raise an eagle, there are several catties.”
Lu Qiming couldn’t help but laugh. With your skill, you still want to catch an eagle and raise it? Be careful to be taken away by the eagle.”
Jiang Miaomiao saw that he was still disapproving, and angrily ate a big mouthful of ham.
“Wait, I will bring up a house of birds, stew bird soup and roast bird legs every day, don’t follow behind your butt and beg me.”
He shrugged, “I look forward to this day.”
Jiang Miaomiao Inspired by him, he quickly finished eating, looking for tools all over the house, and started to take action the next day.
She had a rare early morning, rushed to finish her work before sunrise, had breakfast, and brought the tools she prepared: a bag of rice and a trash basket.
Waiting by the bedroom window.
The trash basket is modified, with a long stick tied to it.
She intends to hide behind the curtains, and when the bird is addicted to eating rice, she will cover the trash basket with lightning speed, so that she can be caught intact.
Opening the window and sprinkling rice on the windowsill, Jiang Miaomiao waited patiently.
One minute passed…Two minutes passed…The
sun gradually rose to the sky, hot air poured in from the window, but did not even guard the bird’s feathers.
All the air conditioners ran out, which was too wasteful.
Jiang Miaomiao had to close the window temporarily, put on a sun hat, and continued to wait.
Lu Qiming passed by with a bottle of ice-cola and glanced at it.
“Oh, still catching birds here.”
She turned away, not looking at him.
Lu Qiming was so bad that he stood beside her and opened the Coke, slurping several mouthfuls.
She was already thirsty and couldn’t help standing up when she heard this voice, and wanted to get a bottle of Coke too.
However, after only two steps, Lu Qiming pointed out the window and shouted:
“Bird!”
Jiang Miaomiao immediately turned her head and saw the empty window sill.
Lu Qiming snickered. She raised her hand and punched him on the chest.
“If you don’t help, you will make trouble, and you will be rolling.”
He raised his arm around her, handed her the unfinished Coke, looked at the trash basket and said:
“You are catching birds with this stuff, and you won’t be able to catch one until next year. Only.”
Jiang Miaomiao drank some Coke and glared at him.
“Nonsense, if there were no birds coming, I would have caught it a long time ago.”
“Are you as slow as you when you are a bird? The other party ran away early if such a big basket was covered.”
She took a few more sips and drank it. When he was satisfied, he slapped Coke in his arms.
“Either come and help, or go, don’t stand here and talk coldly.”
Lu Qiming pinched her nose and went to the bed to play a game.
Jiang Miaomiao waited for another half an hour, worrying about whether the zombies had evolved any special abilities. When all the birds were killed overnight, the prey appeared!
A gray bird with a tail feather less than ten centimeters long gathered its wings and landed on the window sill, looked around, and began to peck at rice grains.
Jiang Miaomiao had already planned to do it, but after thinking about it, he still gave up.
This bird is too young to raise it for half a year without a bite of meat, which is not cost-effective.
She wants to catch the big one.
Everything is difficult at the beginning. After having the first one, the second bird will appear very quickly, and it fits Jiang Miaomiao’s body shape very well.
Holding her breath, she gently opened the window, holding the trash basket and buckling down…
pounced.
The bird’s feather fell on her face, and the bird flew out of sight in an instant.
Jiang Miaomiao grabbed the bird’s hair and hung his head down.
Lu Qiming didn’t turn his head back and said:
“I thought you were going to open a breeding farm, so I only wanted to do badminton processing.”
“…come again!”
She made persistent efforts and concentrated, and decided not to eat if she couldn’t catch it.
She made breakfast. At noon, Lu Qiming cooked fried rice with dried plums and luncheon meat, topped with seaweed and shrimp skin soup, and brought it to the table in the room, and said:
“It’s dinner.”
Jiang Miaomiao shook his head and stared at the window intently.
“No.” Lu Qiming walked over and patted her shoulder, “You really can’t catch it like this, don’t waste your time. Eat first, and I will teach you one after the meal…”
“Hush!”
She did. He made a silent gesture, “Don’t quarrel the birds.”
He looked at the window sill with only grains of rice . He could n’t laugh or cry. He planned to let her go . He would eat when he was hungry.
Lu Qiming was about to turn around, and from the corner of his eyes suddenly saw a rotten human face emerging from under the window sill, and he shouted in a deep voice :
“There are zombies!”
He jumped on the bed vigorously, rolled and took it out of the closet. The rifle, the movement was so fast that there was only a phantom, and he aimed at the head of the zombie in the blink of an eye.
When he was about to shoot, Jiang Miaomiao raised the trash basket and knocked hard on the head of the zombie.
The latter screamed and fell from the twenty-fifth floor, falling to the ground and turning into a pool of fleshy mud.
Lu Qiming: “…”
Jiang Miaomiao took back the trash basket blankly and continued to wait.
She wants to eat meat, no one is allowed to disturb!
Watched by the window all day, guarding a total of four birds.
Jiang Miaomiao shot three times, only to get a pile of bird feathers and a half-empty rice bag.
In the evening, she was so hungry that she stopped working and was preparing to cook, only to find that Lu Qiming had already cooked noodles.
Jiang Miaomiao was surprised, “Are you so kind today?”
“What you said, I used to treat you badly?” It’s
good, but it’s really lazy to be lazy, even trying to hide dirty clothes in her washbasin. , I want to fool her and wash it off together.
Fortunately, her sharp eyes were picked out before she started.
Jiang Miaomiao curled his lips and sat down to eat, still thinking about catching birds.
There was a problem with the tool, the movement was so loud, she had to change one.
“Do we have an internet here?” she asked suddenly.
Lu Qiming looked up, “What do you want to do?”
“I used to see that there is a kind of bird net, the principle is very similar to fishing net. It is set in mid-air, and when the bird hits when it flies over, it will be entangled by the wire, never again.
Ca n’t move.” “…Do you want to be like that?”
“Hmm.”
“You overestimate your craftsmanship. Really, be humble.”
“…” Jiang Miaomiao rolled his eyes. “Can’t you practice if the craft is not good? It’s really not good. Can I put glue on it?”
Lu Qiming smiled:
“Why don’t you try something simpler?”
“What’s simpler?”
He blinked, “You I’ll tell you after I finish the meal.”
Jiang Miaomiao was dubious and finished the rice in the bowl.
Lu Qiming told her the way, and she was speechless.
“Do you think I never went to elementary school?”
The way he said was the paragraph in the elementary school text.
When it snows heavily, set up a shelf in the snow, and sprinkle food under the shelf. When the bird enters, pull the string and let the cage fall down to cover the bird.
The method is easy to use, but where do they find the snow?
The window sill is only ten centimeters wide, and there is no place for a bracket.
Lu Qiming heard her retort and shook his head.
“Who said that they have to be on the window sill? They can’t change the place? The reason why they have to be in the snow is because the snow covers the ground and the birds can’t find food. In order to fill their stomachs, they can only enter the trap. Now The bird has no food in the first place, the situation is the same.”
“Really?”
She failed too many times, and she was a little less confident.
Lu Qiming said: “Wait, I’ll catch it tomorrow to ensure success.”
Jiang Miaomiao suspected that he was bragging, but after thinking about it, Lu Qiming seemed to have not failed in the ticket package, so he gave birth to shares. Looking forward, looking forward to coming tomorrow.
Early the next morning, the two carried a bunch of things to the top floor.
The top floor is close to the sky, the probability of birds landing is high, and it is easy to move.
Lu Qiming took his self-made sticks and frames, Jiang Miaomiao’s parasol and sunscreen spray, as well as ten drops of water, which he found from the drawers of others in the office, to treat heatstroke.
Ten drops of water, a small bottle, very inconspicuous.
One drop, but it can be so unpleasant to make the dead come alive.
With it, mothers no longer have to worry about heatstroke.
Upon arriving at the destination, Lu Qiming set up the frame and sprinkled a handful of rice underneath, then tied the stick with a thin cotton thread, held it far away in his hand, and hid under the umbrella with her.
Jiang Miaomiao sprayed sunscreen spray on the two of them, frowning at those things.
“Is this all right? Is the angle wrong? Birds can’t see the rice inside. And this frame is too small, you should…”
Lu Qiming was annoying, raised his head and sealed it. Her chattering lips.
Jiang Miaomiao: “…” A
few minutes later, she pinched him with a flushed face.
“Don’t mess around!”
Lu Qiming cast an eyebrow at her, looked forward with a narrow smile, and waited for the prey to come.
Before long, a big black bird landed from the sky and eagerly walked towards the grain of rice.
The two held their breath for fear of disturbing it.
The big black bird approached step by step, and finally walked under the frame.
Lu Qiming yanked, the small stick fell down, the frame lost its support, and it turned towards the big black bird.
But its area is too small to completely cover the opponent.
The black bird struggled inside for a while, and then flew against it.
“Look, I said it’s too small, so I have to change to a bigger one.”
Jiang Miaomiao thought he had failed again, and stood up and complained.
Lu Qiming stared at the black group, rushing and jumping, and even caught the bird that had already flown in the air!
“Qua—Qua—” The
big black bird flapped its wings, struggling desperately, very fierce.
Lu Qiming punched it on the head, knocking it out.
Jiang Miaomiao ran over to look, touched the unconscious bird, and couldn’t help but marvel.
“My God, I didn’t expect you to be a master bird catcher!”
Bird catcher… master?
How come this is more strange than ever?
Before Lu Qiming had time to show off, she grabbed his arm and ran downstairs.
“Quickly, find a cage and lock it up!”
The bird will weigh two or three catties, and it will multiply at that time, which is incredible!
Be rich. Be rich.
The author has something to say: Big Black Bird: What should I do if I stumble into the den of thieves? Help!
