Chapter 319 Factory, Let’s Go to the Factory
The afternoon sun was shining brightly, and the strong wind had blown away all the clouds, the sky was icy blue, and outside the window was the noise of the elevated light rail passing by.
Bifang thought the sound was so pleasant, as if he were in a dream, and he was just in an ordinary world.
But suddenly a burning pain stung his back, he turned around, and the flames licked his cheeks, burning everything to ashes.
Bifang sat up suddenly, opened his eyes in the dim light, breathing rapidly, his whole body covered in cold sweat. It was dead silent outside, no light rail, no cicada sounds, only dead silence.
【Hey, Lao Fang is awake! 】
[Fuck, it’s on air! It’s on air! ]
【Calling friends...】
[Did Lao Fang pee ? I heard that playing with fire at night will make you wet the bed. There was such a big fire yesterday, Lao Fang must have peed]
[Yes, he must have peed! (Funny)]
"fart!"
Bifang sneered, he would wet the bed? You must be joking, it's impossible.
Sitting up from the ground and looking at the broken glass all over the floor, Bifang recalled the raging fire last night and was still frightened. He had never encountered such a big fire in his past or present life.
The entire city was deserted, half of the street was left burning, and no one put out the fire. The black smoke and flames seemed to divide the world into two halves, with night and day appearing at the same time.
Everything I saw during the escape was even more frightening. Yeyimen was very desolate after nightfall. The buildings stood in the night like dark rocks. There was no light in any window, and there were no cars on the road. The faint firelight illuminated a desolate scene, and occasionally the roadside signs reflected the eerie white light.
It's like arriving on another planet.
It was not until the second half of the night when it rained lightly that the flames gradually disappeared. Bifang found a residential building to rest for a while. Unfortunately, the entire building was empty and the house was full of broken glass. He could only find a broken mattress to deal with it.
I just woke up from a nightmare and remembered that I was still live streaming and hadn’t turned it off all night.
Bifang rubbed his eyes and moved his body. His right arm was still a little sore. The blister on his palm had been pricked by him. Now he could see that the wound was a little white and still a little painful, but it was bearable.
"I arrived at Yeimen near dusk yesterday, so today should actually be considered the first day of the live broadcast, but my luck was not very good and I got a little injured."
Bifang put the wound in front of the camera and shook it, and it made people feel a toothache when they saw it.
Many people have been scalded by boiling water or something else at one point or another. It feels terrible, like having a piece of flesh dug out, and the pain is very long-lasting, almost ridiculously so.
"When a part of our body is scalded, we should first rinse it with tap water to quickly lower the temperature of the scalded area, reduce continuous damage to the body, and relieve pain. In addition, because the heat will be transferred to the inside of the tissue, it takes a long time to rinse. The blisters caused by burns and scalds need to be pricked, otherwise they are prone to suppuration and infection, and will also affect the wound's absorption of drugs, which is not conducive to wound recovery. Small blisters should be pricked at a low position with a sterilized needle to drain the water; large blisters can be cut open with sterilized scissors to drain the water. After the blister is pricked, do not cut off the blister skin, let alone tear it off with your hands. The blister skin can protect the wound surface and prevent the wound from infection and inflammation. I originally thought that maybe I only needed to search for some food and water today, but I didn't expect to add medicine."
Bifang put on his backpack and walked out of the room.
It was daybreak outside, not because it was still early, but because the sky was covered with dark clouds, the road was still wet, and the air was mixed with dust and mist, making it hard to breathe.
Looking at the dust visible in the air, many people were terrified. Such a horrific fire might not be seen once in a person's lifetime , but it happened right before their eyes, and even the cause of the fire was known to everyone.
[Strange, it was a good thing it rained yesterday, otherwise it would be even worse, the whole city would have been on fire, right?]
[Not really. The fire had actually been blocked at the time. There were streets there so the fire could not spread.]
[This rain comes at a great time, doesn’t it? Awesome]
[But didn’t Ye Yimen send anyone to put out the fire? ]
"It was no coincidence that it rained last night... ahem."
Bifang coughed twice due to being choked by the dust, and explained to the confused audience.
"When a fire occurs, the higher temperature will cause the moisture in the soil and air to evaporate; and the dust from the fire will enter the atmosphere and act as condensation nuclei, which can easily lead to rainfall. This is why people often say that there will be a big epidemic after a big disaster. It is because the fire and earthquake cause the increase of dust particles in the air to act as condensation nuclei, leading to heavy rain. The humid environment will cause a large number of bacteria to grow, and the dead bodies will act as natural culture dishes. The combination of these conditions has led to such a result."
After listening to Fang's explanation, many viewers were dumbfounded. It was the first time they had heard of such a thing.
Weird, so awesome?
I have learned a lot!
"It probably hasn't rained in Yeyimen for a long time. Maybe that's why it rained last night. The water vapor has already condensed. If it had just rained, burning only half a street wouldn't have directly caused rain. Otherwise, it wouldn't have burned for only half a day. It could have burned for several days in a row."
Bifang was walking around the city with his backpack on his back. Last night's fire was not completely without benefits. At least there seemed to be fewer people nearby. He walked for half an hour without meeting a single person.
It has truly become a ghost town, even more exaggerated than what I saw from the helicopter yesterday.
He found a tall building again and climbed up to look out.
Yesterday I only observed the bandits' situation and had no time to check the nearby terrain and buildings. When I wanted to leave, that incident happened. By the time I got away, it was dark. I wasted half a day, which was a pity.
"After a disaster in an urban area, the first thing you need to look for are those necessities that can play an important role at a critical moment, such as medicine, instant and canned food, clean water, light, and power. These are essential items. Don't hesitate to put them in your backpack when you encounter them."
Standing on the top floor, Bifang had a panoramic view of the entire city.
The drone rose higher. The half of the street that was occupied by residential buildings last night had completely turned into ruins. It was charred black and the collapsed buildings lay across the middle of the road. The blackened buildings looked like the skeleton of a steel giant, truly living up to the name of the ruined city.
Before the war, Yemen's economy was among the top cities in Abasogang, but in reality, there were few tall buildings, and the few that did exist were collapsed on the ground.
"If you want to find supplies, you must look for them in a targeted way. You can't just look aimlessly. When it comes to supplies, many people's first thought may be to look for supermarkets, right?"
[Yeah, isn’t the supermarket good? There’s everything there. You can get hungry or thirsty, and even take a shower.]
[I don’t think so. If you can think of it, others can think of it too.]
[You can try it, maybe it can be simple? ]
Bifang looked into the distance and smiled when he saw the barrage.
"It seems that some people agree and some disagree, but I have the same idea. If you can think of it, others can think of it too. Let alone the situation where the supermarket was sold out by people without paying any money, if there were still supplies left, do you think the gangsters we met yesterday would not be tempted?"
Gang?
Bifang's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over one's head.
Yes, if there really is a supermarket, it will be controlled by those people. After all, I have read a lot of doomsday novels, and this is basically the case. And Yimen is now almost the same as the end of the world .
If we really go to the supermarket, isn't it possible that we might confront them?
Although I have confidence in Bifang's skills, they are a group of desperate criminals with rocket launchers.
After thinking about it, the question comes back again: where should we go?
"factory."
Bifang pointed at a giant flat building in the distance. It was obviously a workshop-type factory.
"We'll go to the factory to find supplies."
