152, Insect Plague Apocalypse 08

Lin Rongbiao asked Yu Heng to go to the kitchen to get a knife: "Just take the bone-chopping knife, that one is easy to use." He turned back to the study, took out a pistol from a hidden place, and ran out quickly.

The father and son dismantled all three water pipes together. Before dismantling, turn on the faucet first, and the accumulated water slowly drips down, and then a group of cockroach-sized insects fall down one after another, crawling on the smooth brick surface.

Yu Heng took the chopping board used for chopping meat and smashed it down heavily! The chopping board made a dull creaking sound, and it felt crisp, like smashing walnuts.

"I'll do it!" Lin Rongbiao asked Yu Heng to get out of the way, and stepped on the chopping board and stomped several times.

When the chopping board was lifted, there were piles of mush on the ground, with a fishy smell, and no blood.

"Strange, this insect has no blood?" Lin Rongbiao was surprised, because the insects he killed before would bleed.

"Maybe it hasn't eaten a human yet, no wonder the shell is so soft and crisp." It was easily cracked.

"Luckily, fortunately." Lin Rongbiao wiped his sweat. "I'll go downstairs to deal with it, you stay here and watch if there are any more bugs falling down."

"Okay."

Yu Heng waited for a while, and only two more fell down. After cleaning up, he went downstairs.

After Lin Rongbiao finished the one on the second floor and went downstairs, Yu Heng also finished dealing with the bugs in the guest room on the first floor.

"Luckily we closed the main water gate a long time ago, otherwise it would be troublesome now." Yu Heng said.

"It's so scary that it's still like this even after the water plant has been disinfected."

"Shuangfeng, you go to sleep, tell Junfang to go to sleep too, it's okay."

Lin Shuangfeng asked: "You don't want to sleep?"

Lin Rongbiao shook his head: "I'm worried, you go quickly." He also told Yu Heng to go to sleep, "I'll just watch."

Yu Heng didn't refuse, so he went to sleep first, planning to take over in the second half of the night. After sleeping for three hours, he woke up automatically. The warm light in the living room was turned to the lowest setting. Lin Rongbiao was sitting wrapped in a quilt. He turned around when he heard the voice, squinting his eyes and said hoarsely: "Want to go to the bathroom?"

"Dad, you go to sleep, I'll keep watch."

Lin Rongbiao seemed a little surprised. He was silent for a while and nodded: "Okay, call me when you're sleepy."

The Lin family was very peaceful in the second half of the night. The sound insulation was good to begin with, and after the renovation, no sound from outside could be heard.

There was nothing unusual around the Lin family on the surveillance TV.

Watching the night was not difficult, so Yu Heng did not wake Lin Rongbiao. In the morning, when Grandma Lin and Zhou Junfang got up one after another, he went to brush his teeth and do morning exercises.

At nine o'clock, the property management called and said that they could come now and asked if it was convenient for the Lin family.

"We have already cleaned up by ourselves, so you don't need to come."

"I'm so sorry!" The property management apologized in a good manner, and finally flattered Lin Rongbiao, "You are really a good businessman. You can even handle the chores at home. You don't know that the bugs in the water pipes have never bitten anyone, and they are small, so it's not difficult to deal with them. But some customers, hehe, lack your excellent hands-on ability..."

The family hid far away, anxiously jumping their feet. Seeing the property management come to their door was like seeing God, and they didn't even have time to put on their usual high posture.

Although this made the property management feel very accomplished, if possible, they still hoped that the owner could be more independent and take care of himself in small situations. Otherwise, the property management would really be busy all the time and would be too busy to handle it.

Lin Rongbiao was flattered by these straightforward flatteries. After asking about the situation in the villa area, he laughed and hung up the phone.

However, Lin Rongbiao's mood did not last long, because the villa area suddenly became chaotic.

At first, the Lin family did not notice the changes in other villas. After all, they were far away and the surveillance could only monitor the vicinity of their own villa.

When the bug appeared in the surveillance range, Yu Heng saw it from the surveillance TV.

The bug was half a person's height, scratching the outer wall vigorously, and its red compound eyes looked like red lanterns.

Lin Rongbiao took a breath and immediately called the property management, but no one answered.

His heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

"How did such a big bug appear!"

What's more terrifying is that the number of bugs appearing in the surveillance is increasing. A rough count shows that there are more than 20 of them. Each one is half a person's height and nearly one meter. The rotating big mouth is like a man-eating plant in the jungle. Between the teeth biting, it seems that the bloody smell can be smelled through the screen.

"What should I do? The property management phone is still not connected?"

"No one answered!"

Yu Heng picked up the knife and was ready to go out. Seeing him fully armed with only his eyes showing, Grandma Lin was shocked: "Heng'an, what are you going to do?"

"Go kill the bugs, Grandma, just stay home and don't come out."

Yu Heng looked carefully at several surveillance TVs and saw that the bugs on the left side of the villa were crawling the fastest and had already climbed halfway, so he decided to go to the left wall first.

"Wait for me, Dad will go too!" Lin Rongbiao also made a quick decision. Knowing that he could only rely on himself now, he quickly decided to go kill the bugs with his son. He must not wait until the bugs come up and destroy the power grid before taking action, otherwise it would be too late.

Lin Shuangfeng and the others obeyed Yu Heng's call, locked the doors and windows, stayed in the house and stared at the surveillance, using their mobile phones to provide them with the whereabouts of the bugs.

Yu Heng avoided the direction of the bug climbing up, set up the ladder and climbed up.

The bug below turned its head, cracked its mouth, and crawled faster.

He coldly inserted the sharpened mop stick into it.

"Chiji!"

This time, the stick hit the insect's big lantern eye, and half of it was sunk in. He picked and pulled again, and the insect's huge body fell back to the ground and stopped moving.

Lin Rongbiao stood on the ground and looked up, and was startled by his son's quick movements.

Although the two of them were fast, the insects climbed the wall faster. The limbs of the larger insects were also stronger, so even if Yu Heng specially asked the workers to make the wall surface extremely smooth, it could not stop their limbs with strong grip like pliers.

At this time, it was too late to poke them down one by one.

As soon as they climbed up, they were blocked by the electric grid.

Yu Heng and Lin Rongbiao retreated from the wall and asked Lin Shuangfeng in the house to turn on the electric grid switch. The electric grid was turned on, and the crackling current instantly wrapped around the insects.

The smell of burnt smell mixed with strange smells and smoke spread.

Ten minutes later, Lin Shuangfeng said on the phone: "Nothing is moving!"

After turning off the power, the two climbed up the ladder and poked the insect corpses with sticks.

On the top of the wall, you can hear the constant shouting and yelling from other places. However, Yu Heng had only practiced one level of [General Principles of Physical Fitness], and his various conditions had only improved slightly, so he couldn't hear carefully or see clearly.

He squinted his eyes and looked for a few times, then climbed down the ladder at Lin Rongbiao's urging and went back to the house.

In the house, Lin Shuangfeng and Grandma Lin were so nervous that their faces turned pale. Although they were in a room with heating on, their hands holding Yu Heng were cold.

"Are you injured? Are you injured anywhere?"

"No, the insects didn't come close to me." After Yu Heng coaxed the old lady, he went to the surveillance TV to watch.

Zhou Junfang hugged Zhou Ping and moved away, smiling at him. It can be seen that she has been guarding in front of the surveillance.

There are no insects in the surveillance for the time being, which makes Yu Heng feel relieved.

"Did anyone from the property management answer the phone?"

"No! What should I do?"

The simple conversation between Lin Rongbiao and his wife diluted the joy of the father and son returning safely. In peacetime, the property management can be said to be the closest partner of the residents.

When there are difficulties and problems, they will ask the property management to solve them. This is the habit of many residents in the community now. The property management in this high-end villa area undoubtedly has a very comprehensive service attitude and excellent service quality. Since the meteorite incident, the property management has always maintained a reliable and convincing service level, which has greatly appeased the restless residents.

But now the property management can't be contacted at all. Not only the Lin family, but other residents are panicking.

Yu Heng has the worst guess in his mind: something happened to the property management. But he didn't dare to say this guess, which would only increase panic.

Lin Rongbiao also hid in the study to make a phone call. I don't know what news he got, and his face has been dark.

Because it was winter, the sky got dark quickly. The sun went down at five o'clock, and a layer of darkness enveloped the earth.

After night falls, the electric fence above the Lin family villa will light up every once in a while.

From the surveillance TV, it can be seen that the bugs have been crawling over from all directions. Human power can't stop them from climbing up, so after the sun goes down, Yu Heng and Lin Rongbiao no longer go out, relying only on the electric fence to stop them.

Lin Rongbiao sighed: "It's right to entrust the decoration to Heng'an. If there is no electric fence, the villa is in danger now."

The decoration appearance that looked messy at the time has played an important role now. It can only be said that it is a blessing in disguise.

Who knew that after the bugs were wiped out, they would come back again? Even more ferocious than the first time they appeared? Such a big body, it looks scary, how can it still be a bug? It's just a calf!

Lin Rongbiao was once again glad that he took his mother over as soon as possible, otherwise he would hate himself now.

Yu Heng stared at the surveillance and estimated how long the electric fence could last. According to the size and attack strength of these bugs, the electric fence can't last long. It was obvious that the relative height of the power grid had sunk a little, all because of the pressure of the bugs.

Suddenly the screen flashed, Yu Heng blinked, and then everything went dark.

"Wow, Mom!" Zhou Ping was frightened and cried.

"Why is the light off? Is there a power outage?!"

After finally taking out the flashlight in the dark, he went to the power room to turn on the home generator, and the lights at home came on, and the heating, monitoring and TV were running one after another.

"If the frequency of the bugs outside is the same, the diesel in the generator will not last long." Yu Heng said. When renovating, he also replaced the generator in the power room in the villa with a high-power one, which was more than enough to support lighting and heating, and the pressure on the power grid was relatively large.

Although there is a solar generator as a backup, it is mostly cloudy these days, so the outlook does not look optimistic.

"When will the rescue arrive?" Lin Shuangfeng asked in a low voice.

This question is asked by everyone on the Internet. Countless panic and despair gathered into a hopeless abyss on the Internet, leaving people with nowhere to escape.

The local news channel has been encouraging everyone: "... the 12th Army stationed in this province has been dispatched and is completely annihilating the insects! Please don't panic, don't go out and wait for rescue!" Later, the tone changed, calling on everyone to take up arms and actively save themselves!

"Don't let the insects at your door go. It can't break through your door now. When it eats others and becomes stronger, it can break into your house!"

"Pick up weapons, whether it's a broom or a clothesline, and insert the sharp weapons into the compound eyes of the insects. That is their only weakness at present!"

Some people actively save themselves, while others just curse crazily on the Internet, cursing the insects and the government.

But soon, the people who were still alive no longer had the Internet as a place to vent their emotions and cry for help.

On February 25, the water supply in the villa area was cut off. On the 27th, the power, Internet and communication were cut off.

All dangers or hopes were immersed in the unknown darkness. The only remaining people were in a panic, hiding in safe houses that were isolated from danger and the outside world, looking forward to the arrival of dawn.

This year was called the first year of the end of the world by later generations. When talking about the origin of the end of the world, we have to talk about the meteor shower that shocked the world and the terrifying meteorites mixed in it in February of that year.

Beauty and danger seemed to foreshadow the future that people would face, where hope and hell were intertwined.

This month is also called Black February or Death February.

However, at this time, the Lin family did not know the terrible evaluation of this month by later generations. Facing the difficulties before them, they had the same idea as most people: Hold on! Live! Wait for rescue!
