Doomsday hoarding: I build a global survivor base

Chapter 52 Chaos occurs
"Doctor Shen, are you going out to buy supplies too?"

Not long after leaving the community, Shen Xiaoxiao and his group met neighbors who were out shopping in the same community.

They built an assault boat and were returning from shopping at the mall.

Seeing three members of her family riding in a rubber boat, their eyes were full of envy.

Father Shen nodded, "Go buy some supplies first."

We have communicated with each other in the community group, and the residents all know where to buy supplies, so when they see someone getting a rubber boat out, no one on the rubber boat will be surprised.

A neighbor kindly reminded, "By the way, there was some commotion on the road ahead. Someone robbed a batch of goods and ran away. You three, please pay attention."

"We just came from the front. Fortunately, we were far away from that group. They took the supplies and ran away. I guess even if the rescue team comes, they won't be able to find any evidence."

"Yes, it scared me to death. I saw two more people fell into the water, and the rubber boat was deflated. I don't know what the situation is now."

After hearing the news, Shen Xiaoxiao's face became serious.

Sure enough, without supervision, some people began to break through the bottom line.

She silently touched the nail gun prepared in her bag. Although this tool was much less powerful than a real gun, it was a weapon that could be obtained after all. It was still a certain deterrent to some people who had never seen it before. force.

Shen Xiaoxiao nodded, "Thank you for letting me know. We will pay attention to safety."

She hesitated for a moment before telling her that she planned to go to the emergency shelter.
"Everyone, if it rains again in the future, don't worry about your house. It's safer to go to the official emergency shelter. After all, the official has been calling for people to move to higher shelters if possible, where there is water, electricity and food. Take advantage of it. There are still places available, so it’s best to get in first.”

Hearing this, the neighbors were stunned for a moment, but they also thought it was a good idea and thanked them one after another.

"Okay, we remember."

"Doctor Shen, your family is still at the top, so why don't you go over now?"

Father Shen nodded: "Although the shelter is not as comfortable as home, it can be protected by the country after all. In today's situation, staying at home is not much safer. In the past, I could have peace of mind."

"Doctor Shen is right. According to the official forecast, the rain will continue to fall. It's really not safe at home."

"Indeed, since it's raining so heavily anyway, why don't we go to the official evacuation shelter and just lock the door at home."

"Yes, my neighbor on the lower floor went to the shelter because his home was flooded. He sent me a message last night, saying that the conditions there were not bad, and he was not tired even if he did some volunteer work."

However, some people did not give face and muttered directly: "What are you talking about? The shelters are all temporarily built. They are not as comfortable as their own homes. Anyway, the thirteenth floor of our house is on the middle floor, so it will not be flooded or leaked. Besides, Now we can still buy food, and the government will also distribute supplies. Wouldn’t it be better to stay at home?”

"That's right, the water will not recede. It will be fine once it recedes. What's the point of running there? Don't you want it at home?"

Faced with such a disobedient person, Father Shen couldn't say much. After a few more pleasantries, the two groups separated and continued walking in the opposite direction.

It happened that a lifeboat also drove by, and Shen Xiaoxiao followed them, but their rubber boat was slower. After a while, they saw the lifeboat parked at the place where the neighbor said the incident occurred.

There was a deflated rubber boat floating on the water, slowly sinking into the water. The only woman on the rubber boat was still crying, looking at the kayak and not knowing what to do.

Her two companions who fell into the water were both floating in the water. One was holding on to a branch nearby, and the other was holding on to the billboard of a nearby store. The current was so fast that they seemed unable to hold on for long. Fortunately, the rescue team arrived at this time.As the neighbor just said, in this case, the time of the rescue team is also precious. There is no way to track down another group of people for supplies. Even after arranging them to a nearby rescue point, they are still rushing to the next place. Go rescue people.

In the end, the three unlucky guys who were robbed only got a few words of comfort.

"It's not just you. Several personal shops were robbed last night. But in this case, no one could be arrested at all. The owner of one shop was beaten to death trying to protect the goods. In this case, it is best not to fight with This group of gangsters fought hard. If the goods are lost, they are lost. Life is the most important thing."

A rescue worker sighed. This kind of thing has gradually increased in the past few days. There are also many people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to buy for zero yuan. Most of them are street gangsters and people with bad intentions who want to fish in troubled waters.

After hearing this, Shen Xiaoxiao became more determined to go to the base.

Xiaoxiao's parents next to them were a little scared after hearing this. If they had gone out a moment earlier and encountered a gangster taking the goods, they might have been robbed.

Although there was nothing valuable in the backpack, and the food and valuables were stored in the Xiaoxiao black card space, it still felt uncomfortable to be robbed.

It has been raining this week and the temperature has dropped significantly. The temperature now only remains at around 12 or 13 degrees.

If it falls into the water and the weather is cold, even strong adults will not be able to bear it.

If you have a minor illness like a cold, you can only take some medicine to endure it.

After leaving this section of the road, Shen Xiaoxiao was careful about underwater obstacles and needed to look at the navigation on the map with her mobile phone.

It takes more than 100 kilometers to drive to the Huanshan Valley in the southwest, which takes nearly an hour and a half.

The rubber boat is not powerful enough, and she needs to pay attention to the situation under the water, so it will take more time.

So Shen Xiaoxiao planned in advance, found a gas station halfway along the route, refueled the rubber boat before continuing on her way.

However, before that, she still planned to go to a supermarket where she could shop to buy some food.

In the past week, the three of them have consumed quite a lot of food.

Since there is an opportunity to replenish supplies, you can't miss it.

Soon, they came to a supermarket where they could shop at affordable prices.

Since the first floor of the supermarket was flooded, we had to dismantle the billboards on the second floor, dock the rubber boat from the middle platform, and then go in for shopping.

There are many red, black, white and blue rubber boats parked on the second floor. They are all used by nearby residents to buy supplies. However, there is a person on each rubber boat. It seems that they are afraid that the rubber boat will be stolen while shopping. , specially left to guard.

Among the three of them, only Father Shen looked a bit intimidating and was the most suitable candidate to stay and guard the rubber boat, so Shen Xiaoxiao took her mother in to buy food.

The two pushed the trolley and bought compressed biscuits, chocolates and candies, canned ham sausages, a pack of instant noodles, two limited-edition boxes of cigarettes and a bottle of liquor.

This kind of food is not only convenient and easy to eat, but also easy to carry and does not take up space.

As for tobacco and alcohol, they are hard currencies in special times. They still don’t know what is going on in the base, and money is still inconvenient to use. At this time, only some recognized hard currencies can maintain their value and be used to exchange various materials. .
