Ji Changze sat on the balcony, wrapping the handle of the knife in his hand with cloth in circles to absorb sweat.
This is a machete. The original owner bought it from a retired tribesman. He specially ordered someone to order it. The blade is sharp. The seller originally said it was for chopping bones, but it was put aside after the original owner bought it.
Fortunately, the original owner also bought a whetstone.
There is no memory of the original owner where his wife Guo Junyuan went during this period, but since nothing has changed when he arrived, mother and son should be safe now.
People in this building panicked after it started to rain meteorites outside. From their field of vision, they could see that tall buildings outside were completely destroyed by meteorites. They were so frightened that they fled the building where they lived. .
Ji Changze's next-door neighbor didn't run away.
His family has a son in his twenties. He has just graduated and runs a public account. He is also a freelancer. He was suffering from a high fever before the meteorite fell. He was so groggy that he was not even awake. My parents moved it for a long time but couldn't move it.
It was impossible to leave their son and run away. The couple was extremely anxious. When the hostess came out to see what was going on outside, she found Ji Changze who was sharpening his knife.
The balconies of their neighbors in their community are next to each other, and you can hear them shouting when you open the window. Privacy and other things are better because they have balconies.
This family has a good relationship with Guo Junyuan, and they often help her take care of the baby when it is inconvenient for her to take care of her baby. They have little contact with the original owner who leaves early and returns late and occasionally stays out all night. After knowing that he has spent all the family's money, I was filled with indignation over this, but now that the situation is urgent, I don’t care so much anymore.
She anxiously opened the window and shouted: "Dad, can you help my family? My Chuanchuan has a fever and is unconscious. His father and I want to carry him downstairs, but we can't."
Ji Changze didn't even raise his head. He still lowered his head and sharpened the knife. While sharpening, he said:
"I advise you not to go out. I just listened to it on the radio. This is a global disaster. Meteorites fall completely randomly. It's not that you won't be hit if you don't go out. On the contrary, if you hide in a tall building, even if the meteorite does fall, we will This is the thirteenth floor, and there is the seventeenth floor above. It can also be a buffer for us. Now there is no signal on either mobile phones or computers. No one knows what will happen after the meteorite falls. It is not something from the earth, it is a virus. It may be an alien creature. The chance of death is half and half when going out and half when staying at home. If you are lucky enough to survive, we don’t know what this kind of alien meteorite will bring. At least it is familiar territory at home, and the survival rate is also good. Bigger.”
Listening to him talking about such a long list of hostesses: "..."
She was nearly fifty years old, so what she said seemed right. She hurried in with a confused expression and repeated Ji Changze's words to her husband.
Her husband was very angry after hearing this: "Do you believe what he said? If he doesn't go out, will we wait for death at home? If he doesn't help, forget it. Let's lift Chuanchuan up quickly."
The fat young man on the bed was not very conscious, but he could hear what his parents said and knew what the situation was. He pushed himself up and sat up.
"Yes, he is right..."
"Mom and Dad, please help me go to the balcony and take a look."
What time has it been? If you don’t run for your life, why are you watching
The couple wanted to drag him away directly, but the son insisted and they could only help him to the balcony.
The young fat man stood on the balcony, opened the window, turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone, and shined his light on the meteorites that whizzed to the ground outside.
There were fires and screams everywhere on the ground, and no hospital came to rescue because the largest hospital in the city had been destroyed by a meteorite.
"Oh my god..."
He muttered to himself, and his mother standing beside him was not in the mood to scold him for not using swear words.
They looked up at the falling meteorites above, and they had never felt so clearly as at this moment that they were only the smallest part of the universe.
She asked: "Then shall we still run?"
Ji Changze, who was next door, said coolly: "Before you run away, take a look at the leeks you grow at home."
Chinese chives
Their leeks are grown on the balcony, and the flower pots they use include not only leeks, but also peppers, green onions, potatoes, etc., which makes them quite comfortable.
But now, the flashlight flashed by, and these vegetables in the flower pots were growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. The leeks were already half a person tall, and the peppers were each as big as a fist.
"ah!!"
The hostess immediately screamed in fright, and the male host immediately stepped forward to protect his wife and son, watching them carefully as they were still growing.
Their son thought of something and took a photo downstairs with his mobile phone. He could see that the various lawn trees in the community were growing wildly. The originally beautifully trimmed lawns grew into large grasslands. Someone screamed loudly. , the light source immediately chased after him.
He was shocked to find that a large and scary vine had wrapped itself around the man and was still tightening violently.
It's like... it's like a giant python is hunting.
The man screamed and finally became silent.
This scene was so terrifying that he was so frightened that he couldn't move. Another ray of light also shone through. He looked over subconsciously. Because the balcony next door was lit with candles, he could see clearly.
The next-door neighbor who was said to have had an affair outside was holding a telescope and looking at it. After reading, he put the telescope on the right, picked up the pen and paper on the table on the left, and wrote something down.
Li Hechuan: "...What are you writing?"
Ji Changze kept writing: "I am remembering the appearance of that vine and the way it hurts people. If we survive, we cannot stay at home all our lives. If we go out, we may encounter it or plants similar to it. Write it down so that we can avoid it or Find a way to kill it.”
After finishing the note, he raised his head and finally looked at his neighbor: "Can you use your leeks for me? I want to try some method to kill them."
Li Hechuan: "..."
How long has it been? I heard that this person is a businessman, but he seems to be an experimental maniac.
But in the end, their family opened the window and sent the leeks and the flowerpot through a pull rope provided by Ji Changze.
As for other plants, their family members opened the window and threw them out.
After seeing the man attacked by the vines, they would never go downstairs, but they also didn't dare to stay with these inexplicably growing plants.
Being so frightened, Li Hechuan felt that he had sobered up a lot. He couldn't run away if there was real danger anyway, so he simply sat on the balcony and watched Ji Changze working there through the glass.
While watching, Ji Changze took out a small folding stove and a piece of toilet paper. He vaguely looked at something like a small stick in his hand, and then scraped it quickly with the blade of a knife. The toilet paper immediately caught fire.
Li Hechuan; "!!!"
Drilling or drilling wood to make fire? ! !
But he didn’t drill either!
Ji Changze calmly took the newspaper prepared aside and lit it. After the fire began to steady in the stove, he took the leeks and roasted them directly.
The leek catches fire and wilts quickly, just like a normal leek.
So Comrade Li Hechuan watched helplessly as Ji Changze burned the leek and the rhizome to death.
After making sure that only the soil was burned, he nodded with satisfaction.
Li Hechuan: "...Um, what did you use to light the fire?"
"Magnesium rod." Ji Changze replied quite naturally.
Li Hechuan: "???"
"What is a magnesium rod?"
Ji Changze opened his palm and showed him the magnesium rod in his palm; "Do you want magnesium rod and flint? If so, I will pass it to you with a drawstring."
Li Hechuan, who didn't know about magnesium rods but knew what flint was, was immediately moved.
At this time, Ji Changze is just a neighbor, but he is actually willing to give them good things that can be used to start fires.
Now the power is out and we only have uncooked rice at home. If it is really a long-term disaster, of course
He had scolded Ji Changze with his friends after he found out about Ji Changze's cheating. He didn't expect him to be so kind and selfless, with such a good character.
He felt guilty in his heart.
"Well, thank you, but what are you going to do if you gave it to us..."
Ji Changze: "It's okay, I have another box."
Li Hechuan: "..."
And...a box? ?
Magnesium rods should be uncommon.
After all, everyone uses lighters or something.
He also had no living tools because no one at home smoked.
In the end, Ji Changze passed the magnesium rod to the family by pulling the rope.
The original owner did not remember the existence of this family. It is very likely that they all went downstairs and never came back.
This is the world where Ji Changze has experienced the easiest way to express himself.
Because in the memory of the original owner, apart from squatting at home, he did not know about other major events.
However, this also means that Ji Changze will be limited in predicting the future, although he basically does not need to predict the future.
He looked at the watch on his hand and continued sharpening the knife.
When the meteorite stops, he will go downstairs to retrieve Guo Junyuan and the child. It is best to find some supplies while detecting the surrounding environment.
The original owner bought it just for show, so in addition to stocking some instant noodles and mineral water at home, there are also some equipment and utensils, and he still needs to stock up on food and drink.
So, Li Hechuan discovered that after sharpening his knife for a while, the neighbor next door moved a bunch of things to the balcony. While observing the outside environment, he put on military equipment, a green camouflage uniform, a rope and a military kettle hung around his waist. , Ji Changze then opened his backpack and began to put compasses, compressed biscuits, maps, flashlights, medical kits, telescopes, gloves, masks, and cans inside.
He even saw Ji Changze sitting there assembling an air gun.
Li Hechuan: "..."
After getting ready, Ji Changze sat there and continued to sharpen the knife.
Li Hechuan: "..."
He returned to the house with a confused look on his face.
In the house, my parents found a steel basin and tried to light a fire to cook porridge.
Seeing him come in, he sighed: "I didn't expect that although Xiaobao's father cheated on him, he is such a good character that he would be willing to share this with us at this time."
Li Hechuan: "... Maybe he really didn't cheat."
In the past, Ji Changze was away from home almost every day. He would leave as soon as someone called him downstairs. Guo Junyuan didn't say anything to the outside world, but when he first learned that Ji Changze had spent all the family's money, he collapsed on the spot and many people saw it.
In addition, he has been "entertaining" constantly before. Many people have seen that he suddenly changed his mind and became a rich man. He spent his family's money to buy a lot of things and never changed it no matter what his family said. Some people who knew him here said he was out of his mind.
Some people have said that he just wanted to make Guo Junyuan unbearable for divorce. Li Hechuan felt the same way before, and when his parents talked about it, they were sure that Ji Changze wanted to force Guo Junyuan to speak on his own.
but now…
Thinking of the way Ji Changze neatly assembled the air gun just now, he looked serious.
"Either he has a tribe, or..."
"He's an agent."
