    At six o'clock sharp, the forty people sent to the position to help lined up and came back. Lin Chuan finally felt relieved.  They all held a bottle of mineral water and compressed dry food in their hands, with expressions of exhaustion and happiness on their faces.  Someone began to ask Lin Chuan and Li Mingfeng if they could join the team tomorrow, or if more people could be asked to help. Lin Chuan smiled and announced in public that the forty people who worked the hardest today would get this precious opportunity.  ¡°We are beginning to embark on a virtuous cycle.¡± He said to Li Mingfeng.  Perhaps this little reward was insignificant before, but now it can make many people willing to work hard and fight for it.  No one knows how long the chaos will last, so being able to enjoy more things than others can make them feel happier than others.  The result of Lin Chuan's busy day was that they reinforced the houses of sixty households. Because they had agreed in advance, these households generously accepted those who had not yet had their turn to reinforce their houses.  Many people shared what little food they had because there was extra water today, and someone even cooked a steaming pot of rice and invited their neighbors to share.  Lin Chuan was also invited to Li Mingfeng's home. His wife was a little pale and looked in poor health, but she had a charming smile and her son was also well-educated, which made Lin Chuan very envious.  Lin Chuan brought a whole box of mineral water, which allowed them to make a luxurious dinner, and Li Mingfeng also opened a bottle of Maotai that he had collected for many years.  "I won't go home until I'm drunk tonight," Li Mingfeng said.  The two clinked their glasses together. After what happened in the morning, they already regarded each other as their brothers, and there was no need to be polite.  "I really envy you, Brother Li! When everything returns to normal, I will find a good woman as soon as possible, get married, and have children, so that when I come home from a business trip, I can be like you, with warmth as soon as I walk in.  Hugs and steaming meals," Lin Chuan said jokingly.  "Instead of like now, when you get home, it's just another cold hotel without any heat, and you have to wash the dishes and bedsheets yourself." "My wife is not here to wash the dishes and bedsheets for you!" Li Mingfeng stretched out a hand and shook it.  He held his wife's hand and said with a smile.  "Of course my wife is here for pain, I know! I'm just giving you an example." Lin Chuan explained quickly.  While the TV was still disclosing precautions and the latest instructions from superiors to the public, Li Mingfeng¡¯s son ran to watch the children¡¯s channel after eating, and the TV suddenly went dark.  Not just the TV, but all the lights in the room suddenly went dark.  ¡°Dad?¡± the child shouted worriedly.  "Don't be afraid." Li Mingfeng picked up the gun and stood up.  Lin Chuan walked to the window. Not only them, but the entire city was plunged into darkness. The shadows of countless buildings stood in the darkness, like many standing coffins.  "What's wrong?" he asked subconsciously.  "Maybe there is a problem with the lines or the substation, and it should be fine after a while." Li Mingfeng said unconfidently, although he knew that no electric workers would go out to repair it at night like this.  The sound of a baby crying floated in the distance, and Lin Chuan couldn't tell whether he was one of the three babies in the community.  The loss of light made him anxious, and the baby's cry made this emotion even stronger.  ¡°It seems that the community has its own generator.¡± He suddenly remembered.  "It's set up to prevent someone from being trapped in the elevator. It should be in the basement of a building. I'll open it." "There's no need to take risks." Li Mingfeng pulled him.  "We have made enough preparations today. It doesn't matter if it's a little dark, no one will get into trouble." Lin Chuan had to admit that what he said made sense, but the dark world made him feel insecure at all.  Ten minutes later, the lights came on again on the riverside position, and several tall buildings in the distance also turned on their lights. Generators should have been used.  Lin Chuan finally felt a little calmer. No matter what time, the light could always make him feel peaceful.  "Go and sleep for a while." Li Mingfeng said.  "I asked the children's mother to take them to sleep in the master bedroom, and you can sleep in the children's room. There must be a lot of things to do tomorrow." Lin Chuan shook his head.  "I fell asleep in the living room." He laughed.  "I haven't taken a shower for several days, and I don't want to smell it because I smell so bad." "Who isn't like this?" Li Mingfeng sighed helplessly.  "Which one do you want to choose, water or power outage?" He also sat by the window.  "Choose neither." Lin Chuan joked.  "If it were before, I would have chosen to cut off the water without hesitation. Because if there is no water, you can still drink mineral water. The worst thing is that it is more expensive, but a power outage means there is no water."If I don't have the internet, I can't do anything.  But now, I really wish I could have some water so I could take a good bath, even if I didn't have to eat a meal.  " "Are you a netizen?  "Li Mingfeng asked. "Standard Internet bug, sometimes I don't go home all day long after surfing the Internet, just stay in the Internet cafe.  Lin Chuan replied. "Oops!"  "He suddenly shouted. "I forgot to call home.  " He said anxiously. Ever since he became the temporary person in charge of the community, there were too many things on his mind. He didn't make a single call home for two days. He took out the phone and found that there was no signal at all, and the power outage was widespread.  It must have affected all the computer rooms and base stations in the city. ¡°Damn it!  Damn it!  Damn it!  "He cursed in a low voice and knocked his fist heavily on the wall. "It makes no sense at all.  " "I know, but" Lin Chuan could no longer speak. He clenched his fists tightly and his heart was in confusion. "Is Jiangmen safe? Why haven't my parents called? Will something happen to them?  Jiangmen is also near the Yangtze River. Will there be monsters? One after another, thoughts broke through his mind and made him feel more and more depressed. They could only overcome this kind of thing by themselves.  Sitting silently in the dark until something crawled up outside.  "A head smelled their scent and desperately tried to stick his head in. Lin Chuan was so frightened that he took a few steps back. "Get away!  "Li Mingfeng cursed in a low voice. He put down the gun and stabbed the mutant rat's shining eye with a steel spear. The fishy smell suddenly filled the air, and the mutant rat screamed from the second floor.  When it fell to the ground, there was only a noisy "squeaking" sound, and the entire window was instantly covered with mutant giant rats, with countless pointed mouths desperately reaching inside, and the only glass behind the railing was crushed to pieces.  The little light was firmly blocked by them, and the room was so dark that nothing could be seen, and only "squeaks" could be heard everywhere. "Dad!"  "The cry of a child rang out in the bedroom. Li Mingfeng groped for a while but couldn't find the gun he had just placed on the ground. His wife screamed again in the bedroom, so he grabbed the spear and ran in. Lin Chuan was by the wall.  After fumbling around, he finally found his spear. He held it tightly in his hand, as if he could protect himself. The sound outside became louder and louder, as if all the giant rats in the world had gathered.  Here, climbing on the anti-theft cage outside this window, hundreds of giant rats squeezed in, shaking their bodies crazily for the fresh flesh and blood in the room. ¡°We have to drive them away!  "Li Mingfeng shouted. "The expansion screw cannot withstand such a strong force!  It's going to collapse!  " Only then did Lin Chuan realize that the reinforced anti-theft cage had begun to shake. " Go to hell!  "He plucked up the courage to stab at the windows, and then pushed them open with force. There was no need to aim accurately, because that wall was full of squirming bodies. "Go to hell!  Go to hell!  "Lin Chuan poked desperately. He didn't know how many giant rats were killed by him with his spear, but more giant rats would soon fill the gap. The connection between the anti-theft cage and the wall was caused by their shaking.  The loosening became more and more severe, and a giant rat had squeezed half of his body in. Lin Chuan felt desperate, and he stopped, waiting for the last moment to come. "Go to the bathroom!"  "Li Mingfeng suddenly pulled him from behind. Lin Chuan woke up from a dream and ran after him desperately. "Hold the door!  "Li Mingfeng yelled. The bathroom door opened inward. Lin Chuan lit up his lighter and searched blankly in the small bathroom, hoping to find something hard enough. "Where's your spear?  "Li Mingfeng blocked the door with all his strength. A giant rat had already followed the smell and ran over and started scratching the door. "Throw it outside.  " Lin Chuan replied in panic. He saw Li Mingfeng's wife sitting in the bathtub with her child in her arms, covering her left hand with a towel. Blood was pouring out. Li Mingfeng's son kept crying in her arms. "With me.  Block the door together!  "Li Mingfeng yelled, and Lin Chuan hurriedly moved closer. The giant rats began to hit the bathroom door, and the lock was broken after just a few hits. Every subsequent hit would break the door open. Lin Chuan and Li Mingfeng tried their best.  Only then could he close it again. Lin Chuan used all his strength to push against the door, and struggled to get up after slipping again and again. He gradually felt exhausted and his movements became slower. "Work harder!"  "Li Mingfeng shouted desperately. "Dad!  "His son screamed, and a giant rat struckThe glass of the bathroom transom was broken. Fortunately, the place was very narrow, and the strength of a giant rat was not enough to destroy the security window.  "We will not die here!" Li Mingfeng shouted angrily, using his shoulders, head and every corner of his body to fight against the monsters outside the door.  "We won't die here! Never!" He shouted loudly, causing Lin Chuan to muster the last strength to get up desperately.  "I won't die here!" He shouted after Li Mingfeng. Every time he shouted, he felt that he had a little more strength.  Fortunately, the giant rats outside the door do not have high intelligence. The impacts of the giant rats are not only scattered, but also interfere with each other.  As the windows of other residents were broken, the giant rats were gradually attracted by the smell of fresh flesh and blood. Only a few of the most ferocious giant rats and the giant rat crawling on the window were still desperately trying to rush in.  Only then did Lin Chuan hear that Li Mingfeng¡¯s son had been screaming, but his wife made no sound.  "I can do it alone. Go see my sister-in-law and help her stop the bleeding." Lin Chuan said loudly.  Li Mingfeng hesitated for a moment and lit the lighter.  Then Lin Chuan saw a scene that he would never forget in his life.  The person sitting in the bathtub - if a person with all the skin missing, dark red muscles exposed, and deformed hands and feet can be called a human - is biting the boy's head bit by bit with her sharp teeth.  , her hands were covered with sharp claws, which had penetrated deeply into the boy's body.  There was blood everywhere in the bathtub, and the person, after seeing the light, opened her mouth full of sharp teeth and let out a piercing cry at them.  Lin Chuan fell, and the giant rats happened to knock the door open at that moment, but they did not expect this and retreated to prepare for a second impact. Lin Chuan hurriedly got up from the ground and pushed the door to its original position.  "No!" Li Mingfeng turned his back to Lin Chuan. He couldn't see his expression, but he had never heard a person make such a desperate voice.  The boy's voice had become weak, and the monster in the bathtub opened its mouth and bit him again.  "No!!" Li Mingfeng suddenly threw away the lighter and rushed over madly. Lin Chuan vaguely saw him grabbing the toilet brush aside and hitting the monster's head hysterically. The monster reached out and grabbed it.  He, so he hit it hard with his head, then grabbed anything at hand and smashed it with all his strength.  Lin Chuan stared at him dumbfounded until the sky gradually became brighter and the giant rats quietly retreated.  Li Mingfeng was covered in blood, and the monster¡¯s head had been beaten into pieces by him, but he was still smashing it powerlessly.  The child in the bathtub had stopped moving. Lin Chuan finally woke up. He rushed over and hugged Li Mingfeng, tears welling up involuntarily.  "Brother Li, stop fighting, she is already dead." He didn't know what he should say. He never thought that one day he would face such a situation.  "Let me go!" Li Mingfeng whispered, Lin Chuan pulled him tightly and dragged him out of the bathroom.  "Let me go!" Li Mingfeng yelled. Lin Chuan pushed him into the corner and told him loudly: "They are dead! Brother Li, they are all dead." "You are talking nonsense!" Li Mingfeng suddenly gave him a hard blow.  Punch him, and then another.  "I've killed the monster, I've killed the monster. I'm going to save them, don't stop me!" He was already exhausted, and he didn't feel any pain from his fist on the face. Lin Chuan remained silent  The ground was close to his beating, and when he finally stopped, he said again: "They are all dead, Brother Li, please cheer up." "You are talking nonsense! I will kill you!" Li Mingfeng suddenly grabbed the hand that fell down.  The automatic rifle on the side pressed its muzzle against Lin Chuan's head.  "If this can make you wake up, then you can kill me." Lin Chuan said without fear. He stared at Li Mingfeng, and there was no sparkle in his eyes.  Li Mingfeng stared at him blankly, and suddenly turned the muzzle of the gun to point at himself. Lin Chuan had expected this and pushed the muzzle of the gun to the other side with force.  "Da da da." A row of bullet holes were shot on the ceiling.  Li Mingfeng was stunned for a moment. Lin Chuan snatched the gun over and gave him a hard blow.  "You are not even afraid of death, why don't you dare to live?" He shouted loudly into Li Mingfeng's ear.  "Just because they died, do you no longer have the courage to live?" "You coward!" He punched Li Mingfeng hard.  "Is there anyone in this world who is immortal? Is there anyone?" He roared loudly, tears flowing down uncontrollably.  "You're going to die anyway,Why not die worthy?  Why can't you kill more monsters before dying?  Why can't we die so that more people can live?  Why can't we kill the culprit who caused all this and die later?  "    "Why?  "He shouted loudly to the ceiling, his eyes filled with tears. In fact, he didn't know what he was talking about. There was just an anger in his heart that made him want to shout out. Someone was sobbing. Lin  Chuan lowered his head and saw Li Mingfeng lying on his back on the floor, tears streaming from his eyes.
