Chapter 1306: Numb From Being Struck by Lightning
In the previous natural disasters, cities near the Yellow River and the Yangtze River were flooded.
Many buildings were soaked by floods and collapsed over time.
Generally speaking, high-rise buildings, mountaintop villas, and buildings erected in vast open spaces will be equipped with lightning rods.
Because these buildings are usually taller and more prominent in geographical location, they are easily targeted by lightning.
Lightning rods can lead lightning around buildings into the ground, thereby protecting the safety of buildings and personnel.
However, most buildings do not have lightning rods installed.
The thunderstorm lasted for three hours.
Lightning and thunder, the night sky was torn to pieces by lightning.
It was like the sky was angry.
The earth shook.
The North.
All members of the affiliated forces on the wall retreated to the watchtower or the outer city.
Only some lightning rods were installed here, and the conductive system was not carefully arranged, after all, it would take a lot of time.
But even so, because the tall walls around attracted most of the lightning, there was not much lightning in the outer city.
"Damn it!"
"What bad luck! I was almost struck to death!"
A short man walked into the room with lingering fear.
"Let the brothers retreat down, don't stay in the sentry tower, it's high up there and easy to be struck by lightning!" The leader of the Mighty Gang said to his men beside him.
The men swallowed and said:
"The intercom is broken, we can't get out."
"If you can't use the intercom, just go out!" Gao Weimeng said angrily.
"I'm afraid of death!" The men said frankly.
"Damn it!"
Gao Weimeng pulled out a gun from his waist and ordered:
"Go now!"
The men pursed their lips, their eyes flickered.
As lightning struck outside, Gao Weimeng's face on the opposite side brightened and dimmed.
"Okay, big brother, I'll go right away. I just found something and I want to report it to you."
Gao Weimeng glanced at him,
"Shoot."
Boom!
Another flash of lightning, after which the room fell into a brief darkness.
The men rushed over and snatched the gun from Gao Weimeng.
"Li Chuhe, you fucker!"
Bang!
Boom!
The sound of the gun was perfectly covered by the thunder.
Li Chuhe looked at Gao Weimeng lying in a pool of blood, his eyes full of satisfaction.
He held the gun in his hand and kicked the body twice.
"Damn dwarf, I can't stand you anymore. God didn't deal with you, so I will deal with you!"
"Let me run out and die!"
It would take at least four minutes to run from here to the wall. According to the density of the current thunderstorm, there is a high probability that he will be struck by lightning, and it will be even more dangerous when he reaches the wall.
Don't stop at nothing, just kill him!
In the thunderstorm, it is the best time to kill.
But what should be done with the body?
The other brothers upstairs may come down later, and if they are seen by then, they will be finished.
Boom!
A big tree not far from the house was hit by lightning and turned into charcoal in an instant.
Li Chuhe, who saw this scene, had an idea.
Just blame it on the natural disaster, just need to drag the body out.
Throw it a few meters outside, others will definitely want to drag the body in.
But if it is thrown under the big tree, no one should dare to go out.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth. It was about 30 meters from here to the big tree.
Dragging a body weighing dozens of kilograms should be done in 30 seconds.
He was also a ruthless man, after making up his mind.
Put the gun in his arms and dragged the body to the outside.
Boom!
A flash of lightning fell not far away.
He gritted his teeth and dragged the body under the big tree, and turned around and ran towards the room without hesitation.
Almost as soon as he entered the room, a flash of lightning fell on the big tree again.
Boom!
The big tree collapsed and hit Gao Weimeng's body. This time, the big tree was struck by lightning and caught fire.
The flames burned fiercely.
After seeing this scene, Li Chuhe was secretly happy.
This is simply too good, even the heavens are helping him to destroy the corpse.
Amidst the thunder, the light shone into the room.
He looked at the pool of blood on the ground and hurried over to deal with it.
"From now on, I will be the boss of the Wei Meng Gang!"
About 150 kilometers away from the North, Re City.
Rumble——
The thunder was shocking.
Amidst the lightning and thunder, the crowd at a cement factory in the suburbs collapsed.
There are many towering cylindrical buildings and some huge mixers, all made of steel, which are very attractive to lightning.
"President, what should we do, this is too scary!"
Watching the lightning and thunder falling in the cement factory like rain.
A man with a black mole on his nose pulled the boss's sleeve in horror.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning hit the roof of the employee dormitory building of the factory, and the cement on the roof was immediately blown up and pierced.
"How the hell did I know, damn, if I had known, I would have gone to the North with Gao Wei Meng and the others."
Jiang Tao, the president of the Flame Society, had a face full of regret.
He had lived through the apocalypse for five years, but he had never encountered such a horrific natural disaster.
This natural disaster made him feel completely desperate.
Boom!
Another bolt of lightning struck the rooftop house.
Crash--
The board house on the top floor collapsed and fell on the cement floor on the second floor, and it was a little bit unable to support itself.
"Boss, why don't we run out and change places? If we stay here any longer, we will be buried alive."
Chairman Jiang took a look at the lightning outside.
He saw the kiln opposite. Although the kiln was airtight and the space was not large, it was not suitable for human habitation.
But in this situation, the kiln was at least safer than the staff dormitory where they were.
About fifty meters, with an extreme charge, they could rush over in a few seconds.
"Go!"
He called the remaining dozen men around him, carrying small bags of food, and rushed over there.
On the way, people were constantly struck by lightning and fell down.
Whoosh——
Jiang Tao had just walked into the cave when he saw the staff dormitory where he was originally staying collapsed.
As the lightning shone, he saw that there were only seven or eight people left out of the dozen people who had followed behind him.
He looked at the space and couldn't help but sigh that his luck was really bad.
He chose a place that was so easy to be struck by lightning as a base.
All the hard work of so many years was wiped out by this thunderstorm disaster.
What he didn't know was that the thunderstorm of these few hours was just the beginning.
Fujian Province.
Lanxi.
Bunker forces.
"Father, I can't contact other people from the Bunker Federation." Song Yile said to his father with a walkie-talkie.
His face was pale, pale without a trace of blood.
He had been in the bunker for so many years without sun exposure, and his malnutrition and lack of trace elements made him look a little strange.
Song Tian nodded and said to his daughter Song Juanjuan:
"Turn off all the electrical equipment, just leave one for ventilation and this light in the hall."
Song Juanjuan glanced at her father indifferently and left without saying a word.
Five years in the apocalypse also made her, a thirteen-year-old girl, become an eighteen-year-old adult.
But in these years, she witnessed the death of her grandparents.
Witnessed her father's madness, and then recovered.
But she would never forgive her father for what he did.
"My mother's illness" Song Yile glanced at his father.
Originally, he hated his father very much, but later, as he grew older, he slowly understood some things.
He didn't know why, but he suddenly understood his father.
And he slowly became the father he hated the most.
Song Tianyi sighed.
His eyes were a little tangled, wondering whether to go out and search for medicine.
But over the past few years, natural disasters have continued.
The only time he went far away was to deal with nuclear radiation zombies.
Apart from that, he only went out when he traded with other bunkers not far away.
Although they have a lot of food stored, it's been five years now.
No matter how much food there is, it will be eaten up.
He also stored some medicines at the beginning, but he traded those medicines for food with survivors in other bunkers.
And the medicine to save his wife is already scarce.
He asked people in other bunkers, and they all said they didn't have it.
"After this natural disaster is over, I'll go out and look for it." The man said in a low voice.
He actually felt that his hope was very slim. After all, it was the fifth year of the apocalypse, and it might be extremely difficult to find supplies.
He couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He regretted that he was content with enjoying himself when the apocalypse just broke out.
He stayed in the bunker and didn't take the time to go out and collect supplies.
But who could have known that the apocalypse would last so long.
They had been expecting the government to deal with everything, and then they would walk out of the bunker safely to welcome the new world.
Unfortunately,
the apocalypse is still going on, and it seems that it will continue.
The big camphor tree base.
The most notable feature is that lightning rods can be seen everywhere, and even three lightning rods are installed in each greenhouse.
In addition, a lightning conductor system is installed on the wall, which greatly weakens the impact of lightning on the big camphor tree base.
The thunderstorm has lasted for a whole day.
There was also a death.
When Zhou Weiguo, who was in charge of livestock breeding, walked out of the pig farm, a flash of lightning frightened a sow.
The sow ran out of the door and ran outside to be struck by lightning.
After the sow was struck by lightning, the smell of burnt meat filled the air.
Simply carry it away and use it as a snack.
Da Pao returned to the inner city from the outer city wearing a lightning suit and lightning boots.
Lightning suits can effectively reduce the probability of lightning strikes and dissipate current.
Even if struck by lightning, it will not lead to death, at most it will be electrocuted.
Along the way, he was a little scared.
But at least he was not struck.
Apart from anything else, a row of dense lightning rods on the wall of the camphor tree base, as well as lightning rods everywhere in the inner and outer cities, will lead lightning into the ground.
Walking on the road between the inner and outer cities, the probability of being struck by lightning is ten times lower than outside.
Second, wearing lightning suits and lightning boots can play a certain protective role.
Came to the villa area.
Knocked on the door.
Dong Dong Dong!
The door was opened.
"Da Pao, why are you here?" Li Hang looked at Da Pao with some curiosity and asked.
Da Pao said: "I came to find Brother Yu."
"Well, forget it, you can talk to him, the zombie generator in the outer city, the bunker entrance I have locked."
Li Hang nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Pao, thank you for your hard work."
Pao didn't say much, turned around and walked towards his and Song Min's nest.
He didn't want to go out on such a stormy day.
Inside and outside the camphor tree base.
There were almost no people wandering outside.
All stayed indoors.
On the outer city wall, there were only dozens of people on duty.
They were scattered in various duty rooms, where some canned food, food and water were stored.
You can stay in the duty room all the time and don't go out.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning struck the duty room at the main gate and was led underground by one of the lightning rods.
The lightning disappeared.
Yang Tianlong sat in the duty room, playing chess face to face with Wang Wei.
"Checkmate!"
Yang Tianlong pushed the chess away,
"No more playing."
"Brother Long, don't be angry, I'll give you another horse this time, come on." Wang Wei said.
Yang Tianlong glanced at the surveillance screen on the wall.
The screen shows the scene outside the buffer city.
Thousands of zombies have gathered outside the buffer city.
It hasn't rained yet, and there are so many zombies.
Thanks to the perfect construction of the lightning protection and conductive system, the base can still maintain stable power supply and lights can be used.
However, the radio can't be used. There is really no way.
"Brother Long, don't worry, we are all in the outer city. Those zombies are isolated outside the buffer city, hundreds of meters away from us." Wang Wei saw Yang Tianlong looking at the monitoring screen and said with a smile.
"Yeah. But you still have to be careful and stay alert." Yang Tianlong warned.
Inner city villa area.
Second floor underground.
Mist is steaming.
Steam is coming out of the double-flavored pot, one side is the shank bone soup base, and the other side is the spicy soup base.
Li Keai blinked her eyes and looked at the hot pot with saliva at the corners of her mouth.
"Children can't eat this." Ding Qingqing wiped the corners of her mouth and said softly.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Li Keai raised her hand to protest.
Everyone laughed.
At this moment, Li Hang came down.
"Brother, Da Pao just came over and said that the things you asked have been done."
Li Yu nodded and waved his hand and said:
"Sit down and eat meat!"
He said with a relaxed face:
"I don't know what happened, when a natural disaster comes, I want to eat hot pot, drink some beer and have some barbecue."
"Why?" Li Hang stuffed a piece of mutton roll with some peanut butter and put it in his mouth.
His mouth was bulging.
"There is atmosphere!" Li Yu smiled mysteriously.
Yu Tong next to him secretly picked up a piece of beef roll from the spicy pot.
Li Yu smiled bitterly and said:
"It's okay, eat if you want."
Yu Tong pouted and said: "I have to avoid eating!"
