    ,

    "Flicking" As the man's slightly heavy footsteps sounded in the street, two pheasants nearby were startled, and jumped up from the grass half as high as half a person, and quickly flapped their wings and rushed into the sky, and then glided  After flying hundreds of meters away, it landed in another patch of grass.

    "Quack quack quack" Several shiny black crows stood on the roof of the building, condescendingly looking down at the tiny human on the ground, and cheered happily.

    Once upon a time, they could only hide in the city, picking up the garbage discarded by humans, and lingering on.  But 30 years in Hexi and 30 years in Hedong, since human beings were unlucky, all the cities, villages, mountains, and lakes in this world have become the world of animals.

    Feel free to fly, make nests at will, and no one will disturb you with slingshots and guns.  Of course, the delicious food discarded by humans will no longer be eaten.  Whether this change is a gain or a loss, the crow must not be able to figure it out with his brain capacity.

    The earth will never turn slower or faster because of the lack of someone. Even if more than 90% of the population is lost, the stubborn nature still operates according to its trajectory, stable and ruthless.  Spring goes and autumn comes, cold comes and summer goes, and in a blink of an eye, another sunny spring comes.

    The man ignored the crow's ridicule and ignored the pheasant that had just landed. He carried the corpse and walked a hundred meters and then got into another building.  A few broken boards were lifted to reveal a mountain bike. Although the paint leather was mottled, the rims and chains were still new and shiny.

    "Boom Phew" It took a few minutes to tie the blue devil's body firmly to the back hanger. The man took out a water bottle from his backpack and drank a couple of sips. Then he touched his trouser pocket and took out a copper-colored metal box.  , after opening, there was half a box of yellow and green plant powder and a piece of printed newspaper.

    "Huh" He rolled a cannon skillfully, took a deep breath, and then let out a long breath, groaning in enjoyment.  It seems that the exhaustion and troubles all over the body have drifted away with the faint smoke.

    "It seems that no one has searched here yet. I just don't know if I can find something useful Fuck him, there is inflation in the end of the world!"  Not enough, troubles still exist.

    After smoking, the man looked at the surrounding buildings with some reluctance, took out this atlas from his arms, searched for it, and made a mark on it.  He put the hood back on and plunged his entire face into the shadows, stepped on the mountain bike and left the ruins along the seemingly invisible road, heading towards the main road in the distance.

    "Cracklingcreaking"

    The obviously modified front and rear suspensions of the mountain bike filter the potholes from the ground very well, but they still groan involuntarily.  It should be to remind the owner that they are not used for heavy loads, and the weight they bear is a bit heavy now.

    Under the reflection of the rising sun, the huge ruins of the city cast jagged and weird shadows, during which groups of crows flew up and down, making desolate and monotonous cries.

    A gust of wind blew by, bringing up the dust on the road and swirling up into the air.  A shepherd, riding a mountain bike on the road that has been covered by sand and dust, is extremely lonely except for the elongated shadow.

    There are relatively few plants on the main road, but there are more and bigger cracks on the ground.  The width of the road and the shape of the isolation belt in the middle indicate that it should have been a relatively high-grade road before.

    It's a pity that with the bad luck of human beings, they have become waste that no one takes care of like those high-rise buildings.  However, the guardrails in the middle and on both sides of the road are still there, and they haven't been removed as cleanly as in the human-occupied area, not even a single screw is left.

    After ten years of hard work, the survivors successfully occupied several large cities with relatively rich resources and partially resumed production.  It is a pity that there is still a shortage of raw materials. All metals that can be re-smelted are hard currency that can be exchanged for food, medicine, weapons, fuel and other living materials.

    The buildings, buildings, roads and everything with metal around the base have been demolished.  In the past few years, as resources have become increasingly scarce, some people have started to recycle waste steel bars for a living.

    They used extremely low prices, that is, food that could keep one or two people from starving to death, recruited people from refugees, and started to attack the steel bars in high-rise buildings.  Sledgehammer, steel brazing, using the most primitive way to get the steel bar out of the cement block, and then sell it to the second dealer in the base.

    Yes, that's right, it is now the spring of 2031, ten years after the outbreak of the zombie disease.  Survivors from all over the world formed dozens of large settlements on several continents through gradual migration and integration.

    There are seven in Asia, four of which are in China.  The Revival Alliance occupies North China, part of Northwest China and Inner Mongolia. Last year, after annexing the Four Provinces Alliance, it dominated the North.?Simply change the name to the East Asian Union, and the ambition is vivid on paper.

    The strength is indeed there. The registered population alone is said to be more than 40,000, and the population of vassal refugees is said to be as high as more than 100,000. It is the second largest giant base in the world except for the survivor group in Mumbai, India.

    The remaining three are located in Chengdu, Yining, and Changsha. Their spheres of influence are mainly in the southwestern region, Xinjiang province, and the inland south of the Yangtze River, with a population of about 30,000 to 60,000.

    In addition to domestic survivors, these populations also include many foreign survivors who migrated from East Asia, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and Central and Eastern Siberia.

    It is said that the population size should be able to continue human civilization. Even if it does not return to the Internet age, there is no problem in keeping it in the late industrial age.  In fact, the survivors only developed at a high speed for a short period of time, and then suddenly slowed down, and even experienced a large-scale regression.

    Investigate the reason, everyone may have a different summary, such as energy, population, natural environment, raw materials, etc. In the end, it is actually two words, time!

    It took the survivor group more than five years and hundreds of battles, large and small, to clean up the zombies near the base.  Using air superiority and long-distance artillery fire, most of the living corpses were eliminated at fixed points, temporarily eliminating the possibility of a large-scale zombie outbreak.

    Although there is still a long way to go before the goal of completely eradicating zombies and restoring the human homeland, it has successfully made the situation a little more controllable.  To put it bluntly, neither the survivors nor the zombies have the power to launch a large-scale attack on each other.

    Survivors are due to the excessive consumption of weapons and ammunition and insufficient sustaining power. The remaining weapons and ammunition can only be used for self-protection.

    On the zombie side, the living corpses were cleaned up too much by the survivors' air power, almost to the point of extinction.  Even if there are still those who have escaped the search by thermal imagers, drones, and helicopters, they can no longer join hands to gather large forces.

    However, it was too late when everyone felt the shortage of weapons, ammunition and energy. After years of wind and rain, most of the machinery was rusted into scrap iron.  Coupled with the gradual deterioration and exhaustion of oil, the survivors suddenly found that large-scale coal mining has become a luxury.

    Without mechanical assistance, there is not so much labor force by manual labor alone. You can't just dig coal and do nothing. What do you eat?  Without sufficient energy supply, let alone oil extraction, oil refining, smelting and mechanical processing.

    Of course, there are smart people all the time, and some groups still look a little further than others and have made some preparations in advance.  It is a pity that due to the incomplete industrial chain, no one can balance the project and production.

    Or it is to engage in an industry alone.  For example, coal mining can generate a certain amount of output, and in addition to meeting one's own needs, one can also use part of it for exchange.  Or it will be in full bloom and do everything, but the output can only be haha, most of the products can't even meet their own needs.

    This is a vicious circle, the longer the delay, the fewer ready-made resources.  In order to fill their stomachs, the survivors can only take out more people to work related to agriculture.

    At this time, not to mention airplanes, even cars have become luxury goods, almost all industrial products are in short supply, and the development of science and technology is extremely unbalanced.

    Ordnance and ammunition, vehicle radios, and medical products can only be counted, and consume a little less.  Cold weapons and horses rejuvenated, and steam power came back to the stage and became more and more important.
