"It's not just our city. According to the current known situation, the nearby Yunzhong City, Kaiyun City, and Fubei City...all face loss of signal and power outage."

Su Yiqing works in the city government office, and has climbed up a bit over the years. In the city, except for some wealthy businessmen with relatively strong energy, those who work in government departments can get the first prize in the first place. hand information.

It’s true that there is no power outage and no signal. They have no way to obtain information from the outside world through the phone or the Internet, but the methods are all invented by people. Thousands of years ago, there was no Internet and no mobile phones. Could it be that the ancients had no way to communicate?

What's more, they now have more convenient and faster means of transportation. The leaders of the government sent people to nearby cities and provincial capitals as soon as possible. From the power outage last night to now, there are enough people to go back and forth.

The information obtained so far is not very optimistic, and this is not just a change that occurred within their own city.

The leader immediately called some cadres in the unit for a centralized meeting. In the middle of the conversation, another person rushed in and whispered something in the leader's ear. After the leader listened, his face changed drastically.

"The people sent to the provincial capital have returned. The scope I just mentioned is still too small. Not only the nearby cities, but the entire Huaguo is now in a state of complete power outage."

As a political center, the capital is much faster than the local government. As soon as a problem is discovered, a special team is sent to the provincial governments to maintain order.

The colleague sent to the provincial capital came back immediately after hearing the news and told the bad news.

The satellite has disappeared, so their mobile phones and other communication devices have lost their signal. The impact of the disappearance of the satellite is far more than that. Many devices that rely on satellite navigation have also failed. Relying on satellite navigation, aircraft that rely purely on inertial navigation can be used.

At around nine o'clock last night, at the moment when the satellite disappeared, countless traffic accidents such as airplanes and ships occurred. However, due to the loss of signal, the official has not even produced a single casualty report. Many people may not know that their relatives At that time an accident happened.

The second is the power outage. No one can find out the cause of the power outage. There is no problem with the equipment, and the electric energy disappears from this world inexplicably. It is impossible to find out the reason, let alone restore it.

The provincial capital has issued the highest level of security warnings. This sudden change undoubtedly poses the most serious challenge to the capabilities of local governments.

Appease the emotions of the people and maintain order and stability are the top priorities of their work at present.

But obviously, after hearing the news, all the government cadres sitting in the conference room panicked. They knew how heavy their responsibilities were, but at the same time, they cared more about their families.

How do you get the message out and get your family ready?

Inexplicable blackout, inexplicable loss of all satellites.

What about other countries, they are the same as Hua, or is this change actually a conspiracy against Hua by the Ugly, Stupid, Thieves and other countries?

In either case, they seem to have to prepare for the long-term loss of satellites, electrical power, and all facilities that rely on satellites and electrical power for a period of time to come.

This will undoubtedly change the way most people live today, especially those who live in cities.

Stock up on food, water, and various supplies. This is the message that everyone present wanted to convey to their families immediately. Just remembered that the phone is no longer able to make calls.

Su Yiqing withdrew his hand that had been reaching out to his pocket.

He is not particularly worried about food. His mother has always had the habit of hoarding food. When the new rice is harvested every season, she will buy several hundred catties of rice and put it in her granary. The whole family can save some food. , It can also last for two or three months, not to mention that in addition to rice, sweet potatoes, potatoes, dried corn and other easy-to-storage grains will be stored in the granary.

Moreover, their family still has a few acres of land in the countryside, and his mother grows all kinds of vegetables and fruits. Compared with his colleagues who grew up in the city, he is not too worried about eating.

Su Yiqing felt that even if he wanted to hoard things, he should hoard some materials that were not easy to produce in the future.

If there will be a long-term power outage, then all items that need to be reprocessed will probably become luxury goods, such as toilet paper, sanitary napkins, commonly used medicines... He thinks there are too many things that should be bought.

It's a pity that he couldn't get in touch with his wife. Su Yiqing could only pray that his wife had a good understanding with him, and came to work to find him quickly.

*****

Kong Yao and Su Yiqing did have a deep enough tacit understanding, but the tacit understanding was not in the matter of finding him, but in the procurement of supplies.

The first time she came to Shanghuo Street, Kong Yao bought twenty bags of ten-roll toilet paper and twenty-dollar old-fashioned toilet paper from one of the few daily necessities stores on the street. The paper is about the size of A4 paper, and there are hundreds of sheets of toilet paper in each bag. It is cheaper and more durable than roll-packed and pumped toilet paper. It is also rougher. Deng Caihua likes to use this kind of toilet paper, except In addition to the cheap price, it is not easy to break when wiping the buttocks, unlike toilet paper, which requires several sheets to be stacked at a time.

In addition, Kong Yao also bought ten toothpastes, twenty pieces of soap, two bags of the largest package of washing powder, and other messy daily necessities in the same store.

When it was time to check out, Kong Yao subconsciously took out her mobile phone and prepared to scan the QR code to pay.

"Beauty, there is no signal now!"

Faced with Kong Yao's actions, the boss didn't react immediately, and he didn't think of it until he handed the printed QR codes to Kong Yao himself.

Kong Yao patted her head, she was stupid!

Before, I only thought that my mobile phone still had battery and could scan the QR code to pay, but I forgot that neither Alipay nor Fetion could be opened without the Internet.

"Wait, let me find out how much cash I have on me."

Kong Yao was a little embarrassed, and when he searched in the bag, some cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Who would bring cash when going out these days? She only found some small change in the middle of the bag, and she didn't know when it was left behind. It's probably less than twenty yuan if you piece it together.

Kong Yao thought, she still has to go home, her parents must have cash in hand.

"It's four hundred and twenty-eight in total, right? Let's wipe it off."

Su Aobai opened his wallet and took out 420 and handed it to the boss.

"Small business, forget it, for the sake of you being the first customers to visit today, I'll wipe it off for you."

The boss took the money, checked the hundred-yuan bill, and agreed with a smile.

Everyone may be struggling with power outages and no signal. There is really no business on this street today.

"Fortunately, Erbai, you brought cash."

Together with the boss, the two packed the daily necessities they just bought into the trunk of the seven-seater off-road vehicle.

Before, Kong Yao thought it would be overkill for her brother-in-law to borrow a big cart to pick up her mother-in-law, but now she used it to pack things, and found that she borrowed the right cart.

She bought so many miscellaneous things just now that she didn't even fill up half of the rear compartment. Even if it fills up the space in the rear compartment later, there are still two rows of spacious seats in the rear where goods can be placed.

"Well, when I came back this time, I planned to give Mom a big red envelope."

While talking, Su Aobai took down a briefcase from the back seat, unzipped it, and let the sister-in-law see several stacks of hundred-yuan bills inside, all of which were new bills taken out of the bank, and some of the straps on it It hasn't been removed yet, and it looks like forty to fifty thousand.

"This is great!"

Kong Yao's eyes lit up, and he led his brother-in-law straight to the next battlefield.

Now that you have cash, what are you afraid of, big purchases.

She didn't say anything polite about lending him money to buy things. The relationship between the two families is close, and she is not the kind of person who likes to take advantage. When the time comes, when the electricity is available, she will naturally return the money for buying things to him.

And if there is really a long-term power outage and no signal, there is a high probability that Kong Yao will choose to take the child back to the countryside to live with her mother-in-law temporarily. These prepared things will most likely be used together.

When Kong Yao bought it, he simply bought it for a large family, without dividing it into two families.

"Oil, dry goods, dried noodles are also good, and a few boxes of instant noodles are also available..."

Because the cash was relatively sufficient, Kong Yao counted the things to buy and the quantity to buy with her fingers.

"That's right! Water!"

When seeing the beverage shelf, Kong Yao suddenly thought about the water cut off during the day.

If the electricity is not restored for a long time, drinking water will be a big problem. I have to buy some big buckets of water for storage. I can use the old well water in the yard for washing and bathing. I can eat and drink. Kong Yao is really not at ease.

However, you don’t need to buy bottled water in the commercial street. When you go back later, you can pass by the local drinking water plant and buy dozens of barrels. Can deliver to the countryside.

"Erbai, why did you buy so many seasonings?"

Because her mother-in-law made a list of seasonings for her brother-in-law, Kong Yao didn't pay attention to these things when stocking up, until she watched her brother-in-law put all kinds of seasonings into boxes into boxes.

The most commonly used seasonings such as salt, sugar, and monosodium glutamate, I bought two boxes of each, and there were twenty packs of 500g seasonings in each box.

In addition, soy sauce, vinegar, oyster sauce, thirteen spices and other seasonings are also bought in boxes.

Although Kong Yao thought about hoarding goods, she never thought about hoarding so much. She still felt that the power and signal would recover sooner or later. Maybe she would be making fun of people for hoarding so many things now.

Who knew that she felt that she might have been impulsive and reckless enough, her brother-in-law had no rules than her.

"Mom made a list, but didn't say how much to buy?"

Su Aobai looked innocent, carrying a 24-bottle soy sauce box in his arms, with a submissive tone.

"The boss said that if you buy more, the price will be cheaper than the price Mom gave, and you also said that you need to buy more, so I bought these back."

He has an honest face, and there seems to be a line written on his face-I did everything according to your orders.

Kong Yao was helpless, she used to think that her brother-in-law listened to her mother-in-law and her husband, but she didn't realize that her brother-in-law cared so much about her words.

Forget it, I bought everything, and at worst, cook more frequently in the future, and try to use up these seasonings such as soy sauce and vinegar before the shelf life expires.

"Beauty, you guys buy a lot of things, I can give you some more discounts, do you like these seasoning packages, fatty beef in sour soup, fried prawns in oil, sweet and sour pork tenderloin... just prepare the ingredients, follow the instructions on the seasoning package The method is to add the ingredients inside, and the taste is not much different from that in a big restaurant. If you buy ten packs, I will give you two extra packs."

"Our egg noodles are made by hand in a workshop I found. The price is more expensive than half of the noodles, but the taste is better, and we have dried the noodles. Now there is no refrigerator and you can't use them. You can put them outside for a while. Time doesn't spoil..."

"Beauty, dried shrimps like to chop..."

Spending money is very addictive, especially in the case of big purchases. Later, Kong Yao's mind was also swollen by those stall owners. Many things were not needed in her original plan, or the demand was not enough. Such a big one, but under the temptation of various discounts and exemptions from the boss, I accidentally bought too much.

It was only when the last gap in the car was filled that Kong Yao's consciousness gradually recovered, and the cash in Su Ao's white bag was only more than a thousand yuan left.

Looking at the airtight back compartment and back seat, Kong Yao blushed for herself who had just taught her uncle to buy too much seasoning.

Originally, I planned to stock up on things worth a few thousand dollars, and if I stock up on them, it will cost tens of thousands. With so many supplies, the family will have to use them for a long time, right?

Kong Yao had some headaches, but since he bought it, he couldn't think too much about it.

This little regret, turned into happiness when I drove to the city government office and saw Su Yiqing who hurried out from his work unit.

Kong Yao never expected that the blackout signal would be nationwide, because it has not yet been contacted with other countries, and it is still uncertain whether the scope of the country will be expanded to the whole world.

If all the satellites in the world disappear, and the electricity cannot be regenerated, stockpiling supplies is particularly important.

Kong Yao even felt that the tens of thousands of dollars he just bought might not be enough.

"Erbai, hurry up and go back to the village to inform our mother and the village chief. You came by car, right? Don't return this car, and help stock up some things when the time comes. Also, Yaoyao, I'll take it later. I give you the car keys. When you leave, you drive away our car and go to find my father-in-law. Remember to tell your parents not to sell the food at home. By the way, tell the cadres of your village about the situation so that Everyone is ready."

Su Yiqing didn't know when this inexplicable situation would return to normal, but he knew that if it was abnormal on a national or even global scale and continued for a long time, the current social order would definitely be chaotic.

They have to prepare for the worst.

"Must be fast!"

Su Yiqing knew that there must be other people who knew the inside information trying to inform their relatives. Even though the communication was cut off now, there were still other ways to spread the news.

After this news spreads completely, I am afraid that these supplies will not be easy to buy.

One is worrying about the price increase, and the other is worrying that those bosses will never sell it again.

When the three of them were talking, several waves of people had come out of the office building one after another, and they were also talking to their family members. The news would probably spread soon.

Both Kong Yao and Su Aobai seemed to be infected by Su Yiqing's urgency, and they left in a hurry without staying in the city office for long.

"Hey! I forgot to mention that!"

After Kong Yao and Su Aobai left, Su Yiqing suddenly patted his head hard.

As a small leader of the city government, Su Yiqing was also able to come into contact with some relatively confidential events. Some time ago, there were a lot of people who fell ill.

There were those who suddenly sweated profusely, those who suddenly had magnetism on their bodies, and those who stuck to the metal with just their skin without using any glue or other items, and those whose clothes caught fire suddenly, but they themselves were not burned to death...

As soon as these strange news were reported, they were taken over by higher-level units before they could be dealt with, and those who suffered from "strange diseases" were also taken to other places for treatment.

Because Su Yiqing didn't handle this matter, he didn't pay much attention to these things at the time. There are so many strange diseases in the world, and it's not ruled out that they will be falsifying or exaggerating the reality.

But thinking back now, combined with the inexplicable disappearance of the satellite, and the inexplicable inability of various power plants to produce electricity, Su Yiqing felt that the strange disease may not be the strange disease. Perhaps these changes are also related to the one that started in the middle of the night yesterday. Mutations are closely related.

Su Yiqing felt a little heavy.

Why do you think about it, it looks more and more like the end of the world?

The strange illness is the first sign of supernatural powers, and perhaps there will be zombies, natural disasters and the like in the future.

Thinking of this, Su Yiqing quickly shook his head.

How can there be such a bizarre thing, he must have thought too much.

The electricity will come back, the signal will return, I just hope that everything is their unfounded worry.

*****

"Why hasn't the electricity come yet? Guohua is the same. He said he went to the town to inquire about news. He has been away for more than an hour now, and he hasn't brought back any news!"

"Stop complaining. Ren Guohua rode a bicycle over here. Can the speed be the same as riding a battery car before? Besides, what if the town can't solve it? He rode a bicycle to the county seat, and it didn't take long to go back and forth. More than an hour."

With no water or electricity, a group of villagers with little work in their hands gathered together to chat.

Now it’s the hottest month of August. Usually, during the hottest time of the day, everyone is blowing fans or air conditioners at home, eating iced watermelon, but now there is no electricity, so they can only sit in the tree Enjoying the shade under the shade, with all kinds of fans in hand.

"Do you feel that today's temperature is lower than the previous few days?"

There was an old lady who fanned herself twice. In the past, the wind coming out of the fan was scorching hot, and she had to turn on the air conditioner to feel cool. Now she was sitting in the yard, fanning the wind, but she didn’t feel that special. hot.

"What is it called? My granddaughter said it was called heat island effect. That's right, that's the word. Do you know what heat island effect is? My granddaughter said it means that we always turn on the air conditioner on weekdays. The outside of the air conditioner What the machine blows out is hot air, and the weather outside is already hot enough, with so much hot air blowing together, it won’t be too hot to death.”

Another thin old lady explained.

"I think it's good to cut off the electricity once in a while, and the temperature will drop immediately. Thinking about when we were young, and there was no such rare air conditioner, it would be great to have a fan at home. I didn't think so at that time. It's so hot, the kind of heat that makes people feel stupid under the sun."

It is normal for the temperature to rise and fall, and everyone did not pay much attention to whether it is cooler today than the previous few days.

"I don't think power outages are good at all. I was watching "Let Love Come Home" yesterday, and I just saw that **** off daughter-in-law had a miscarriage."

Another old lady said that she didn't want the power outage at all. Although they lived in the countryside, most of them in the south were relatively affluent. What's the matter with the heat? It's a big deal to pay more electricity bills, and it's not like they can't afford to turn on the air conditioner.

"You also watched Let Love Come Home!"

Deng Caihua's voice immediately rose, and a group of old ladies found a bosom friend and began to discuss the plot of this TV series intensely.

Some people stand as the heroine, thinking that she is too pitiful and encounters scum all the time.

Some people think that although the hostess mother-in-law was harsh, she did nothing wrong. Who made the hostess unworthy of his son? Cinderella leaped from a branch and became a hairless phoenix. , Isn't the mother-in-law allowed to say a few words? Most of those who have these thoughts are women who have already become mother-in-laws.

Another part is the same as Deng Caihua, scolding on both sides, not only angry at the heroine for not living up to expectations, being cheap, but also annoyed at other characters in the TV series.

Under the shade of the tree, it suddenly became lively, full of chatter about character names and plots.

"The old lady in that family is really poisonous..."

"That little daughter-in-law is really, why..."

"Ram Chi Ram Chi—"

"If I were that little daughter-in-law, if the old godmother dared to make me childless, I would..."

"Ram Chi Ram Chi—"

"That man is also dead. His wife was rubbed like that by his own mother, so he..."

"Ram Chi Ram Chi—"

The heated conversation stopped abruptly.

Why do you feel that when they were discussing the plot, some strange voice came in?

"Ram Chi Ram Chi—"

In the quiet atmosphere, this time the snoring sound was very clear.

"Mom!"

Ma Aifang jumped three feet high, and saw a huge wild boar rushing towards them not far away, with a pair of tusks shining sharply in the sun.

The crowd dispersed all of a sudden, crying for their fathers and mothers. Some called for weapons to subdue the wild boar, and some called for help. Their voices were so loud that they didn't attract the wild boar away, but focused on it. Deng cauliflower's ass.

"Sin, why are you staring at me!"

Deng Caihua looked back and saw the wild boar following her buttocks, she was almost frightened away.

"Don't follow me either!"

Ma Aifang, who was running in front of Deng Caihua, used all her strength to run, her face was blushing.

With so many people, why did they follow her in this direction?

Deng Caihua, a troublemaker, really wanted to harm her!

In fact, Deng Caihua really didn't think so much this time, but the two subconsciously ran in the same direction.

Birds first, then dogs, then chickens, ducks and geese, and now even wild boars are catching up, Deng Caihua is waving her old arms and legs quickly, she still has to help Susu deal with the evil mother-in-law, she must not die In the boar's mouth.

With a burst of passion, he ran to Ma Aifang.

The author has something to say:

Boar: Don't run, my love!
