Life in the world of film and television

Chapter 482 Panic and Martial Law

After running back home, having breakfast, watching the orderly flow of people on the street, Li Mu planned to replenish some supplies.

I went to the study to check again. The computer was still working, and half of the hard disk storage was used. Li Mu opened a video playback software, selected dozens of TV series and hundreds of movies, added them to the download list, and continued to hang up to download.

He bought more than a dozen of these hard drives, and planned to download them all into movies, TV series, music, novels, stand-alone games... so as not to be disconnected from the Internet in the future.

Still driving the pickup truck, he left the community, came to a large supermarket nearby, and watched the bustling flow of people.

Because there were too many people, the supermarket was too busy, and there was a long queue outside.

Everyone who came out of the supermarket seemed to have experienced a war. They squeezed out with big bags and small bags drenched in sweat, watching the crowds of people coming from all directions with lingering fear.

Seeing this wave of panic buying, Li Mu wisely didn't join in, and turned his head towards the wholesale market.

There were also a lot of people in the wholesale market. It took Li Mu more than half an hour to purchase a cart full of supplies.As soon as the car was started, before the wholesale market was driven out, the flow of people in front suddenly dispersed, and countless people ran in all directions, crying and howling.

Without the crowd to block him, Li Mu could see the scene in front of him clearly at a glance. A young man with a bruised face and a distorted face was getting up stiffly.

The cloudy eyes, the low roar, and the viscous liquid flowing from the corners of the mouth, are they not zombies!
A few business owners, holding mops and sticks, boldly wanted to approach, but they dared not approach.

Suddenly, the zombie roared and rushed towards the crowd. The scene became even more chaotic, with ghosts crying and wolves howling.

"It's a zombie..."

"Oh my god! Zombies... help!"

"Zombie... Zombie..."

……

Soon, a few people ran too panicked, tripped and fell to the ground, and were directly chased by zombies. There were screams at the scene, and the scene was extremely bloody... The crowd became even more chaotic.

Some flocked to the exit, some flocked to nearby shops to hide, and some hid in the car...

Li Mu hesitated for half a second, then took out a pair of gloves and put them on. The next moment, there was an extra [-]-meter Mo Dao in his hand.

After hesitating for a moment, Mo Dao turned into a two-meter-long eyebrow-level stick.There are really too many people at the scene, and the police will definitely come later. Let alone how such a long Mo Dao was put in the car, as a sharpened control knife, trouble is inevitable.

After getting out of the car, under the shocked gazes of the people around, Li Mu took the eyebrow stick and rushed towards the zombie against the current.

He was extremely fast and arrived in front of him in an instant.

He lost his reaction and was extremely sensitive. He looked up and saw Li Mu, his gray eyes were bloodshot, and he was still chewing a bloody thing.

With a roar, he rushed directly at Li Mu!
Li Mu flashed to the left, and slammed the brow-level stick fiercely, hitting the target with a bang.I don't know how many bones on the zombie's body were broken. It rolled five or six meters on the ground, raised its head, and screamed to stand up.

However, the spine has been broken, and it is impossible to stand up.

Li Mu stepped forward and hit the zombie's neck with another stick, and could hear the sound of the neck bone breaking.

I didn't expect the zombie to be so tenacious. With both hands on the ground, they still wanted to get up, but the bones in their necks were broken, and their heads hung loosely around their necks, looking very weird.

A few brave ones, seeing that the zombies were restrained and out of danger, surrounded them with sticks and mops.

Li Mu said, "Did you call the police?"

Several people looked at him with admiration: "Reported...reported..."

Li Mu threw the eyebrow-raising stick in his hand to an empty hand: "The zombies have no ability to hurt people, you guys watch carefully, and wait for the police to come and deal with it."

Several people responded hastily.

Li Mu turned his head back to the car, without stopping, and walked out of the wholesale market under the grateful and shocked eyes of everyone.

Along the way, Li Mu encountered an explosion-proof car of the Duoport police, and drove in different directions. It seemed that the accident occurred not only in the wholesale market.

All the way back to the community smoothly, it took more than an hour to use all the things.

At this time, the 32nd floor is 180 square meters, plus the attic roof is more than 100 square meters, and most of the places are occupied by materials.

In the afternoon, the police cars outside were ringing more frequently, and the special police were dispatched all the time.Li Mu didn't go out again, just stayed at home and put away all kinds of things.

After several hours of sorting and rules, all the materials were sorted and neatly arranged, and there was a lot more space.

After Li Mu's careful division, there is finally enough space for activities without affecting the quality of life.

In the evening, after dinner, Li Mu swiped his phone again. There were many videos and news about zombies on the Internet.Although it was a bit too tragic, Li Mu was still very surprised after playing the mosaic.

Videos and articles are not limited or blocked, it seems that the situation is getting worse, maybe the official showdown will soon.

At around 100 o'clock in the evening, on the main road outside the community, the buzzing of the motorcade sounded again, continuously.Li Mu took out his binoculars and looked around. There were more than [-] military vehicles passing by the main road in front of the community, followed by dozens of armored vehicles.

Li Mu checked the Internet and found that in the past few days, large-scale troops have entered the cities in major cities across the country, and martial law and military control have been implemented in many serious areas.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the mobile phone received a text message from the Xiacheng official. Xiacheng will officially enter martial law from ten o'clock tonight and enter the state of military control.

All personnel are not allowed to go out unless there is an emergency.Specific management rules will be released later.

Not only Xiacheng, but almost all cities across the country were notified at [-] o'clock, entered a state of emergency, and began martial law and military control.

With such a big move by the officials, they all realized the seriousness of the matter, and the whole country was shocked.

At 08:30 in the evening, something even more influential came. The official issued a message to all compatriots, and all TV stations and video websites broadcast live simultaneously.

The official told the public in detail the causes and consequences of this crisis, as well as the harm it caused, in both written and video formats.

The first comprehensive and detailed explanation expounds the zombie virus, its pathogenesis, the research results of major scientific research institutes, and how to survive the crisis.

After reading the full text several times in a row, Li Mu summed up a few main points. First, the zombie virus this time is very powerful, very powerful, unprecedentedly powerful, and only seen in human history.

[-]. It has been several months since it first appeared, and humans have not yet developed a way to contain it, let alone a corresponding vaccine.

Three, the speed is extremely fast, even air and water are its transmission medium.

90.00. The toxicity is extremely high. According to the research, as well as the analysis and comparison made through big data, only [-]% of the people who were recruited developed antibodies and survived.The other [-]% [-] will inevitably turn into zombies.

That is to say, out of a thousand people, only 85 people can survive, less than one tenth.

Fifth, it is extremely secretive, which is why the zombie virus is so destructive.In the early stage, there are almost no symptoms, and after the onset of the disease in the later stage, it will mutate rapidly.

According to big data analysis, the incubation period will be [-] to [-] days. During this period, there will be no symptoms, but it will be contagious. Although it is much worse than after the mutation, it is also terrible.

This period of time is also the time for the human body to fight against the virus.If you win, you will produce antibodies, but if you lose, you will quickly mutate.

Li Mu also focused on understanding the information about antibodies. After developing antibodies, ordinary contact, even being scratched or slightly bitten, can produce immunity.

Only some weak people, or those who have been gnawed too badly by zombies and whose resistance is too weak, will greatly increase the chance of mutating into zombies.

Finally, the official reminds everyone that all people, whether at home or at work, must live separately and work separately.

There is a husband and wife in the family, and the husband and wife have to share a room with each other, and the door must be locked when they are resting.If there are old people and children, the old people and children should also be given a separate room, and the door should be locked.

To prevent one person from mutating, the whole family suffers.

In case of emergency, call the police immediately.

……

With the release of this report to compatriots, the public was in an uproar, especially because the probability of antibody production is not high, which made many people fall into despair.

However, Li Mu realized another more frightening thing. The incubation period of the virus was as high as [-] to [-] days before the virus developed a rapid onset, produced antibodies or mutated.

This shows that the two people who turned into zombies he met at the entrance of the community yesterday and today in the wholesale market had already been recruited seventy or eighty days ago.

After further investigation, although the incubation period is not as good as that of the mutated zombies, it is still contagious, which means it is very clear.

Only Li Mu met two people, and the people who have mutated in Xiacheng are not just these two, there will be more people.

How many places have these people been to and how many people have they met in the two or three months before the onset of the disease.The people they have come into contact with, how many places they have been to, and how many people they have met.

Coupled with the fact that even water and air are the medium of transmission, how many people in the entire Xia City have not been recruited.

Perhaps, the difference between everyone, that is, whether the onset will be sooner or later, whether it will produce antibodies or mutate into zombies.

Li Mu himself is not afraid, the system did not ask him to become a zombie.It's hard to say for others, the probability of survival is less than one-tenth, it will become the straw that crushes many people.

For those with families, parents, wives and children... the larger the population, the higher the chances of someone in the family surviving.

For those who are alone, with nothing to worry about, nothing to hope for, and a less than one-in-ten chance of surviving, sometimes really crazy things do happen.

Li Mu can only be thankful that the army has entered the city, martial law has been lifted, and military control has been lifted.

If you really have extreme thoughts, you will calm down in the face of the cold muzzle.If you really want to ignore the madness, under special circumstances, the gun is not a fire stick.

……

That night, the Internet was very crazy, there were countless hysterias, and countless people fell into despair. Li Mu looked on the sidelines coldly. Under the general situation, personal power is limited.

The next morning, Li Mu still got up early, washed up, and set up his binoculars to take a look around.

Within a few kilometers, seven or eight military vehicles and armored vehicles were parked.The road is empty, only military vehicles, police vehicles and material transport vehicles pass by.There are soldiers with guns on duty at every intersection.

The gates of each community were sealed, only the security guards were still doing their duty, guarding the gates to prevent anyone from sneaking out.

The community is quite lively, young people get up late, old people get up early, and there are people walking around everywhere.

After all, they have experienced enough hardships, and they are more calm than young people.Coupled with the previous wave of panic buying, every household has stockpiled food, whichever elderly people do not participate in.

As the saying goes, if there is food at home, don’t panic.

The ones who panic the most are those young people who get up late, don't know how to cook, don't have much food at home, and often work overtime.

Li Mu ran seven or eight laps along the gravel road in the community, stood for a while, and then went home.

One morning, the police cars on the road kept ringing. With the cooperation of the military, the pressure on the police was reduced a lot.

After eleven o'clock, someone knocked on the door. Li Mu looked through the cat's eyes. It was a community worker and volunteer.

Opened the door, registered the situation at home, and added a group. In the future, any supplies and notifications will be sent in the group.

Finally, I also reminded thousands of times that if there are outsiders at home, or friends who are borrowing, do not live in the same room, but live in separate rooms.

At the same time, during the rest time, the respective doors and windows should be locked to avoid accidents.If the situation is urgent, you can call the police directly.

After completing the registration, they gave a few more instructions, and several people hurried to the next house.

He closed the door and sighed, not knowing how long the situation in front of him could last.

……

In the afternoon, two police cars and a military car drove into the community, followed by a special car, like a prison car, but stronger and more airtight than a prison car, and then pushed down from below a car that looked like a small patient cart in a hospital. stuff, being pushed into the building by two heavily armed soldiers.

Ten minutes later, a man was lying flat on a small metal cart with his limbs firmly locked on it. Seven or eight heavily armed soldiers escorted him and sent him into a small cart that looked like a prison cart.

Then there was a burst of crying and crying. Several family members followed behind and wanted to follow, but they were stopped by community staff and police, and they were very comforting.

Afterwards, a group of people quickly got into the car and quickly disappeared in the community.Only the family looked at the direction of the car disappearing, crying sadly.

Li Mu knew that that man would probably be dealt with soon.Through the binoculars just now, I could see clearly that the man's complexion had already turned blue-gray, his face was distorted, and his opened eyes became more and more cloudy, revealing a faint smell of struggle and madness.

It was exactly the same as the middle-aged man at the gate of the community the day before yesterday before he mutated.

If they really want to become zombies, apart from saving some for research, they have to get rid of them quickly.

However, for a family, it may mean that the sky is falling.This man may be the pillar of the family, the only breadwinner.

well!Under such a cruel reality, any mercy is pale and meaningless.It may be the biggest goal of human beings in the future to preserve the vitality of human beings as much as possible and let more people live.

Everything else, make way for it!
