Chapter 15: Torrential Rain Strikes
Li Yu charged forward.
One slash,
Two slashes,
Three slashes,
He instantly transformed into a human butcher.
Three heads fell to the ground,
This blade was really powerful! It was worth the high price paid to forge it!
Actually, it wasn't that Li Yu had a beheading fetish. He was just used to slashing zombies, and beheading was simple, quick and efficient.
But to the blonde guy, this scene looked like the work of a psychopathic serial killer with a beheading fetish!
The blonde guy was lucky to be standing at the very back. At this moment, he was frantically running towards the woods.
He shouted: "Brother Yu, I was wrong, I was wrong! Don't kill me!"
Li Yu heard this and saw the blonde guy had already run about 10 meters away.
He slowly exhaled and stuck his blade into the ground.
He took the compound crossbow from Li Hang's hands, barely even aiming.
He fired an arrow, and the arrow seemed to grow eyes.
Whoosh!
Thud!
Snap!
The arrow flew out, precisely piercing through the skull. The blonde guy fell forward.
The village secretary's son standing nearby was scared stiff.
Too brutal!
Li Yu gave him a meaningful look. Instantly, a stream of yellow liquid flowed from between his legs.
Li Yu didn't say anything more, and didn't move the bodies.
"Let's go back!" Li Yu said in a deep voice.
His second uncle, Uncle Lai, and his uncle-in-law who had come down to open the gate exchanged glances, their eyes still filled with lingering shock.
"Xiao Hang, pick up the arrows. A crossbow only has 100 arrows, we need to remember to recover them."
"Oh, okay." Li Hang obediently ran over to pull out the arrows.
Then he cleverly collected the gold rings, watches and other valuables from the bodies on the ground.
Gold was valuable in any era.
Li Yu watched Li Hang looting the corpses and felt somewhat emotional. After these days of training, this kid wasn't afraid at all anymore.
Looking at Li Hang's excited expression while searching the bodies, Li Yu felt a bit worried.
Had he allocated skill points wrongly?
Had he been a bad influence on the boy? Li Yu wondered to himself.
He shook his head, dismissing these random thoughts.
Drive, close the gate.
Screech... The steel gate made an unpleasant sound.
As Li Yu entered the base, he thought that having only one person guarding the gate wasn't enough.
First, opening the gate was too slow.
Second, when someone came down from the watchtower, there was no one left up there.
So, after returning to the living room, he called a short meeting. He had his three cousins and young cousin Xiao Lue come out from the monitoring room to join the guard rotation.
He also had Li Yuan and several female cousins, as well as Uncle Lai's daughter take shifts in the monitoring room.
With more people, the cooking workload was quite large;
So often, it took two or three people just to prepare meals.
Outside the four mu of land, there was also a one mu vegetable garden. Since they had moved into the base, they never lacked vegetables.
Thinking about the days of super heavy rain that would start tomorrow, Li Yu had everyone harvest all the vegetables.
Since they couldn't eat so much at once, they made some into pickles or salted vegetables.
November 25th. Heavy rain.
The downpour had started from the early hours of last night.
The sound of rain merged into a continuous roar. The sky seemed to have cracked open countless gaps, with rain converging into waterfalls pouring down on the earth.
Thanks to Li Yu's insistence on having his father build a good drainage system when constructing this base.
Moreover, considering these issues, an extremely tight waterproof layer had been installed in the lower basement.
Additionally, the pond between the two mountains also had water storage capacity.
So even though the rain was very heavy, there was no flood disaster.
Since the mobile phone signal had been cut off some days ago, everyone's internet was down.
No signal could be received!
So they couldn't get any news from the outside world during this period.
But Li Yu knew that this rainstorm would last for a full 10 days!
After 10 days, many countries would be submerged.
Li Yu had experienced this rainstorm in his previous life, narrowly escaping death.
The rain kept falling!
Li Yu actually quite liked the rain. The pitter-patter sound of raindrops, the rushing noise.
Listening to the rain from inside a dry room actually gave a sense of security.
In this life, he no longer had to be like in his previous life, where on the fifth day after the heavy rain,
He was wandering about, almost dying in the rain.
Fortunately!
The hilly terrain in the south, plus their relatively high ground position, meant the rainwater didn't accumulate.
This rainstorm would truly kill many people.
Because of the prolonged rainfall, people didn't dare to go out. Those already lacking supplies would have an even harder time.
The flood would drown people, but it couldn't drown zombies.
So this rainstorm also caused many cities to become dead cities.
Heavy rain, lack of supplies, and facing the danger of zombies!
This also led to only one in ten of the world's population surviving after this rainstorm.
During the heavy rain, it was inconvenient for everyone to go out.
So apart from those on duty, everyone stayed indoors.
Due to the sunny days before, they had stored enough electrical energy. The electricity was sufficient for the 10 days of heavy rain.
There were still some minors in the whole family.
They continued to attend classes, thanks to Li Yu downloading 200T of various materials a few months ago.
This included materials from kindergarten to high school.
He had also stockpiled a whole room of books, so the education of the younger generation wasn't neglected.
November 29th,
The fifth day after the heavy rain started.
The rain showed no signs of stopping.
Everyone was getting a bit irritable staying indoors.
On this day, Li Yu took everyone to the underground screening hall to watch the TV series "The Walking Dead" together.
It was relaxation, but also a form of learning.
For Li Suxin, the arrival of the apocalypse was simply too great
She had a bunch of brothers and sisters around her, with no worries about food and drink.
She could watch cartoons anytime, anywhere.
Of course, she would occasionally get criticized by her sister and Li Yu.
But days without school were simply too awesome!
Until this day, when Li Yu said they would resume education for the children.
Li Suxin's eyes were full of silent wails.
In the education, Li Yu also added a lesson on understanding zombies.
During the rainy days, nothing much could be done.
Everyone was cooped up at home, while Li Yu had stockpiled hundreds of mobile phones and computers early on.
Many people were copying things onto computers, which Li Yu had previously downloaded onto hard drives.
This included various games, movies, TV series, books, and so on.
So everyone's life wasn't too boring.
And after dinner every day, there would be a group meeting.
Everyone would summarize and report on the current situation together.
Through this period of living together, everyone's relationships had also warmed up.
Even Lai Dongsheng gradually integrated into this big family.
Many of the younger kids followed Li Yu in respectfully calling him Uncle Lai.
After all, Uncle Lai looked fierce, but was actually a kind-hearted old man.
Speaking of Uncle Lai, Li Yu thought of his daughter.
Uncle Lai's eldest daughter, Lai Xiyue, was Li Yu's elementary and middle school classmate.
They grew up together and were very close when they were young.
Li Yu remembered that when many people were raising silkworms as kids, Lai Xiyue raised hers particularly well.
But the silkworms Li Yu raised either starved to death or died from diarrhea.
During that time, it was popular among classmates to show off their silkworms.
Lai Xiyue gave her biggest silkworm to Li Yu unconditionally.
This allowed Li Yu to really show off.
And Li Yu's family ran a small shop back then. Li Yu would bring some snacks to Lai Xiyue every few days.
