Chapter 48 Stress Trauma
I listened carefully, but I could only hear the wind outside. It rained a few days ago, and it has been so hot during this time. I don’t know if it’s a typhoon coming.

"Really, listen carefully." Tian Li's eyes were very sure.

I got up and walked to the window. There was no one around the house, and even zombies rarely wandered here.

I sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "What did you hear?"

"I can't hear clearly, he has been talking, the voice is very low, but I can hear it." Tian Li covered his ears in pain.

"But today those five people beat Lao Gao half to death..." I was also a little worried. We didn't deal with Lao Gao in the follow-up. I don't know if Lao Gao is dead or what happened.

"Lizi, wait a minute, I'll ask Lin Kai and Dad, didn't they go to Lao Gao's house again later?"

I opened the door and saw Lin Kai standing at the door.

"Why are you here?"

"I didn't hear anything, I just wanted to go to the bathroom, and I just passed by." Lin Kai said loudly on purpose, and then tried to look inside, and then pulled me out from the door.

I closed the door of Tian Li's room.

"Sister Xiaoqi, let's talk downstairs." Lin Kai dragged me downstairs.

……

"What? Lao Gao is dead?" I suppressed the shock in my heart, and then asked, "Why did he die?"

"Xiao Zhang and those people didn't care about the severity of the attack. Lao Gao was beaten to death. The weather is so hot recently, and Lao Gao was thrown there like this. Uncle Xue and I finished grinding the beans and wanted to take a look. He did such a nasty thing. thing, but we just let him die and we can't do it.

We went to look for it in the bamboo forest, but Lao Gao was not in the bamboo forest at all. I don't know if he wanted to crawl home by himself after being beaten.We found Lao Gao in a sunny place nearby.

The weather is so hot recently, I don't know if I just got sunburned to death.Uncle Xue reached out to touch Lao Gao's nose, but he was already out of breath. "

"Oh my god, those five people took their lives again..." I said blankly, "But just now, Lizi said that she heard Lao Gao's voice." I guessed: "Could it be, Lao Gao's ghost? "

Lin Kai is a staunch atheist, he asked back: "Sister, why do you still believe in this? If there are ghosts, then there are so many zombies, how many ghosts there are in this world."

"What exactly was the sound that Lizi heard? Did you hear it?"

"Old Gao is dead, so he definitely can't make a sound anymore." Lin Kai continued, "I think Lizi probably has stress trauma disorder. The environment has changed so much, and suddenly molested..."

"It's mental illness," I've seen the term on the news before, "Is there anything we can do about it?"

Lin Kai shook his head.

"We can communicate now, can you contact Fang Zhijiu? See if there is a counselor in the refuge, and see if it will help you if you treat him. Or prescribe some medicine, we can go to the hospital in the city to look for it! "

"I can contact you, but it would be better to take Pear to face-to-face treatment with the doctor..."

"Then how did you dispose of Lao Gao's body?" I thought of what Lin Kai said just now that Lao Gao was sunburned to death.

"We didn't have time to deal with it. We just dragged Lao Gao to the bamboo forest. Uncle Xue said he felt dizzy, so we hurried back. I'll go out tomorrow and dig a hole to bury him in."

"Okay," I recalled my father's appearance in the afternoon, but I didn't notice anything strange about him. "Is Dad suffering from heat stroke?"

"Probably because the weather is so hot recently, it's better for us to reduce the time spent outside."

……

The next day, Lin Kai went out to bury Lao Gao's body.

For a long time to come, the weather was extremely sweltering, and the indoor thermometer on the wall had climbed to the highest level. I quickly put it in the freezer to cool down, wondering if it would explode if I put it outside.

Everyone's spirits were crushed by the high temperature, and they lived every day weakly.

The ground outside is terribly hot. If I have an egg in my hand and hit the ground, I believe it will be cooked immediately.

There has been no precipitation for a long time, and the land has been dry and cracked. The crops and other crops in the farmland have not been watered for a long time. I don't know if they will wither due to lack of water.

Because of the fire some time ago, the water storage on the mountain was significantly reduced. We even have problems with daily drinking water, and there is no extra water to water. Even the vegetable garden in our safe house has been abandoned.

We have kept the bottled water in the cellar all the time, and I can't imagine what will happen to us if we drink all the bottled water here and the temperature remains the same.

The hot sun scorched the earth, and staying on the first floor during the day would be unbearably hot.When we went to get the ingredients from the cellar, we found that the cellar is a good place. I don’t know if it’s because the temperature is at least a few degrees lower than above because it’s underground.

But the space in the cellar is limited, we can only stay in the cellar in rotation.

We had hoarded a lot of anti-heat medicines before, and we drank one tube after another to avoid heatstroke.The villagers have already suffered from heat stroke several times, and they smeared white wine on their bodies with Chinese herbal medicine to relieve the heat.

Lin Kai kept in touch with Fang Zhijiu, and we were able to learn about the shelter.

But the situation over there was not much better. Although they were in the huge venue and were shaded by huge buildings, the supplies were scarce, and many people were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs.

The rescue team went out again and again to search for new food, but what they brought back was only a drop in the bucket, and some survivors were also brought back.

They also tried to open food factories or cultivate land to increase food.But they all encountered the same situation as us, that is - lack of water.

The shelter was built on a plain without mountains or reservoirs.As soon as you go out, you can see the unobstructed wasteland, which is worse than our situation here.

Dad is worried about the situation on his mother's side every day, his white hair has grown a lot, and he has lost weight.

We thought communication had been restored, but it was only a special satellite signal from the rescue team.

Dad has never received the news from that mobile phone, and the civilian signal here has never been restored.Not even a bar of signal.

The hot weather, the glare of the sun, I even feel that there is a solar storm on the sun.

Until now, I really feel that the end has really come.

If the previous zombie virus was a huge attack, the current shortage of water resources, high temperature weather, and food shortage are enough to wipe out human beings.

However, there is no unparalleled road, and waiting will eventually usher in a turning point.
