doomsday survival

Chapter 2 Lost
"Chirp, chirp, chirp chirp."

A burst of cheerful birdsong woke Shi Jian up from his morning sleep.I glanced at my watch, it was only four o'clock, but the sun was already shining into the cave.

"The weather is cooler at high latitudes, but the dawn is too early." Shi Jian grumbled while packing his sleeping bag.

Although I still want to sleep for a while, but I have to catch the bus back to YC city in the afternoon, and I have to leave now.

I simply ate a compressed biscuit and drank two sips of water.Shi Jian checked the backpack again, made sure nothing was left behind, and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

"Damn it!" Looking at the entrance of the cave, Shi Jian involuntarily opened his mouth wide, "Who the hell is it okay to sprinkle chemical fertilizers on the entrance of the cave, and the grass grows so tall overnight? This is too unscientific!"

Seeing that the weeds at the entrance of the cave were knee-high, and there was no grass last night, Shi Jian felt at a loss.

"Forget it, leave him alone." Turning around, he took a branch that hadn't been burned, and whipped out a path.

When I got out of the cave, I looked around and saw a lush weeds and shrubs covering the road.

"Where's the road?" Shi Jian was puzzled again.

Pick a good place to walk and enter the pine forest in front, and the shoes are gone when you step down.The fallen leaves were not so deep yesterday, were they?
"Could it be that brother returned to before liberation all of a sudden?" Shi Jian thought as he walked towards the direction he remembered.

But it feels more and more wrong, what is that bird in front?Dragon?This is the outskirts of the forest area, how could there be flying dragons?What's more, it's not just one!What is growing on that tree?Hericium erinaceus?Is there a mistake?Has that head been taken off yet?What is it over there?Silly roe deer? !No way, overnight, China's wildlife protection has made great achievements. There are roe deer and flying dragons in the outskirts of the forest area, and...

Shi Jian immediately turned around and picked a tree that looked easy to climb, and climbed up with a few steps.I beat him up, that's a blind man!
Fortunately, the black bear went in the other direction.Shi Jian patted his chest to soothe his frightened heart, and took out his cell phone tremblingly with his other hand.

"This is the outskirts of the forest area, the mobile phone should have a signal." Shi Jian prayed while turning on the phone, "Should I call 119 or 110?"

It's a pity that a call was not made, and the screen of the mobile phone showed "no service".

"Going the wrong way? Check the navigation." Shi Jian opened the map software without giving up.

I saw the GPS logo kept flashing, but it couldn't connect to the satellite.Then use the search star software to search, and the result shows that the search is 0.

"What's going on?" Shi Jian couldn't figure it out as he rode on the tree trunk, "It doesn't matter, going west is the way out of the forest area."

Shi Jian slid down from the tree, looked at the compass on his watch, checked the direction, and headed west.

This road can be described as difficult and dangerous.Ever since he discovered the black bear, Shi Jian had to be careful. It wouldn't be fun if he encountered any wild beast again.You know, the Xiaoxing'an Mountains are rich in wild animal resources, including black bears, wild boars, and lynxes. Looking at the current posture, there may be Siberian tigers and wolves. I didn't know what the animal called, but it didn't look like a herbivore anyway.

Regardless of the roars of beasts coming from his ears, Shi Jian walked westward without stopping.Finally seeing a small wooden house, Shi Jian's tense heart relaxed a little.

In the Xiaoxing'an Mountains, this kind of cabin is quite common, and it is usually a resting place for lumberjacks and mountain rangers.There are usually some dry food in the wooden house, and the honest workers store it inside regularly for the convenience of everyone.

And the cabin in front of Shi Jian seems to have been abandoned for a long time.From the outside, the wood has been soaked by rain, which shows that no one has repaired it for a long time.The wooden door seemed to be in good condition, but when I pulled it with my hand, it creaked and half fell down.Shi Jian looked at it for a while, and found that one of the hinges of the door had been completely corroded. If the surrounding trees hadn't grown densely and the wind would have been weaker, it might have been blown away by the wind long ago.

There was a musty smell coming from the house, Shi Jian stood at the door and waited for a while, guessing that the smell in the house was almost gone, then stepped into the hut, turned on the flashlight to check the situation in the house.

In the wooden house, there is a bed made of wood, covered with a quilt that has been soaked by the rain.I don't know how many years no one has lived here.There is also a skin of an unknown animal hanging on the wall, which has been gnawed badly by bugs.

Shi Jian briefly glanced at the furnishings in the room, then walked towards a clasped iron pot in the corner.Shi Jian also entered such a small wooden house when he came here, and he knew that rice and noodles were usually put in the tanks.Uncovering the rusty pot, it was true that there was rice in it, but it had already rotted and spoiled and could not be eaten.

Shi Jian walked around the room again and walked out the door without finding anything.At the moment of going out, Shi Jian was stunned, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his body.

On the side of the door frame illuminated by the flashlight, there was a line of unclear words engraved: Shi Jian came here for a visit, July [-], [-]!
Shi Jian brushed it with his hand in disbelief, that's right!It is "Shi Jian came here for a visit, July [-], [-]"

"How is this possible?" Shi Jian felt that he couldn't turn the corner. "Four days ago, when I entered the mountain, I passed a small wooden house and carved these words, but that wooden house was just built!"

"What happened? This new wooden house became so rotten in four days? No, something should have happened overnight. When I was sleeping, there were no weeds at the entrance of the cave. How could there be so many weeds and shrubs when I woke up? Those How did the animals get here? What time is it?"

Shi Jian took out his phone again, and the date on it was still July 2013, 7.Shi Jian only felt that the hairs on his body stood up, as if an unknown fear surrounded him, and he had nowhere to hide.

After a slow silence for a while, Shi Jian stepped out of the wooden house and continued towards the west.

"No matter what happens, I will live!"

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Shi Jian finally walked out of Xiaoxing'an Mountains. In front of him was Linshan Town before he went up the mountain, but the road leading to the town was not that way.The path that used to be sandy is now covered in grass.

Shi Jian bent down to check. The road surface was already cemented, but various weeds came out from the cracks in the concrete road slabs, and the cement road had weathered to the point where the stones inside were exposed.

"How did this happen? What happened?" Shi Jian asked secretly.

At four o'clock in the afternoon the sun is still high, but the temperature is not so high.Walking on the concrete road with tall weeds, Shi Jian felt that he was sweating all the time. The closer he got to the town, the more nervous he became.

In his eyes, the gradually clear town is becoming more and more dilapidated, and the houses are not the same bungalows as when he came, but small buildings.

But looking at the deserted street in the distance, Shi Jian felt an inexplicable fear, as if this lifeless town was like a monster with its mouth wide open, waiting for him to become a delicious food delivered to his door.

Shi Jian estimated the distance, and it took more than four kilometers to reach the town.Although he didn't know what happened, he still walked towards the town. Only by finding someone can he know what happened to this world.

Halfway through the walk, a small two-story building was built by the side of the road, the gate was half covered, and a sign on the door was crumbling.The words "local specialties of Linshan Town" can be vaguely recognized from the stripped plaque.

Dilapidated is the only word that can describe this small building. Looking at this dilapidated small building that could be called a dilapidated building, Shi Jian had an ominous premonition.

It had obviously been uninhabited for decades, so what would he do if the town was the same?
"Where are people going?" Shi Jian desperately asked himself, but couldn't find the answer.His heart became more and more panicked.

Shi Jian glanced at the small building again, confirmed that no one could live in this kind of place, so he shook his head, ready to move forward and enter Linshan Town to find out what happened.

At this time, there was a sound from the room.Shi Jian stopped immediately and looked towards the door.

"Is anyone there?" Shi Jian asked boldly.

"Hmm..." There was a half-answered voice in the room.

"Someone!" Shi Jian jumped up all of a sudden, and finally met someone!
