Chapter 7 The Flour Bomb
Li Baoqiang hurriedly stamped two rats to death, which completely aroused the anger of the rats.
More than a dozen rats ran up Li Baoqiang's back along his trouser legs and bit him on his neck. Li Baoqiang hurriedly pulled off a few of them, stopped teasing the rats, and rushed towards the flour warehouse without any further delay.
The angry rats followed Li Baoqiang and poured into the flour warehouse. The high concentration of dust in the warehouse was suffocating. Li Baoqiang held his breath and ran wildly along the back-shaped passage, with the rats chasing after him like a tide.
After Li Baoqiang led the rats around in a circle, they returned to the door of the flour warehouse and suddenly collapsed.
The rats quickly swarmed up and covered Li Baoqiang. His clothes were quickly torn, and his hands, neck and face were bitten. The pain was heartbreaking. Li Baoqiang thought to himself, "It's over. I've gone too far. I can't give in."
We can’t just die in vain!”
At the critical moment of life and death, Li Baoqiang's small universe exploded. He endured the pain and stood up like a carp. He stood up, stepped out of the door, and pulled the sliding door smoothly. The moment he closed the sliding door, he turned on the zippo lighter in his hand. The lighter drew a flame backwards.
The parabola flew into the flour warehouse.
The fat man and the thin man had just returned to the gate of the grain warehouse. They were tired from throwing flour bags and were panting now.
But now they didn't think about anything else, just nervously watching the movement in the direction of the flour warehouse.
Just now, they saw Li Baoqiang leading the rats to rush towards the flour warehouse. The rats rushed in right after, and their hearts jumped to their throats.
"God bless you, the Jade Emperor, Guanyin, God, Grandpa Earth, and grandma keep my brother safe." The fat man muttered, Li Baoqiang had become the big brother in their hearts.
Suddenly, a fire shot into the sky from the flour warehouse, followed by a huge explosion.
The fire and explosion also alarmed the female soldiers in the small building. The glass of the small building trembled and the building shook a few times. Fortunately, it did not collapse. The female soldiers thought there was another earthquake.
They looked outside one after another, wondering what happened, but Li Baoqiang's safety had already become the biggest thing on the minds of the female soldiers.
Time seemed to have passed for a century, and finally a tall figure walked out, with firelight rising into the sky behind him.
"It's the captain, it's the eldest brother, he's not dead!" The female soldiers and the fat man rushed towards Li Baoqiang in unison.
Li Baoqiang's clothes were burned on his back, his body was covered in fireworks, there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, and his steps were staggering.
Seeing everyone's concerned expressions, he grinned and said, "gmaeover, it's all solved." He leaned and fell to the ground.
The female soldiers screamed and hurriedly helped Li Baoqiang into the small building, fed him a few mouthfuls of water, and wiped Li Baoqiang's smoky body and face with the water. Li Baoqiang's toned body and abdominal muscles made the women
The soldiers' eyes lit up.
Female soldier Wu Chun wiped Li Baoqiang's wounds with the collected alcohol. Without any hesitation, she sat on the ground against the wall and held the sleeping Li Baoqiang in her arms.
Li Baoqiang was exhausted, and the impact on his internal organs made him fall asleep.
The fat and thin duo and the female soldiers stared at Li Baoqiang silently. Li Baoqiang became the only one in their minds. With his strong skills and perfect kills, he hated evil as much as he hated his enemies, he saved others alone, and he had no hesitation. He promised to live and die, and would follow him all his life.
.
Li Baoqiang never expected that in just one night, he would have good brothers and sisters who would share life and death and help each other through thick and thin.
The time of fighting always flies by.
In the blink of an eye, the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into the small building.
This is the tenth day after the disaster, that is, the early morning of December 31, 2012.
Ten days have passed since the disaster, the haze has finally dispersed, the sun has finally spread across the earth, and the world seems to be getting better.
"Didi" A sound of car horns woke everyone up.
Li Baoqiang woke up and found himself in the arms of the female soldier Wu Chun. The warm feeling made Li Baoqiang startled. He rubbed his nose awkwardly, stood up, and led everyone out of the small building.
The sick little boy also recovered, and Li Baoqiang felt that his health was fine.
"It's great to be young!"
The visitor was Liu Junsheng. They heard the explosion in the school and had been worried all night. Because they were worried about danger in the dark, they listened to Professor Zhao's dissuasion and did not come.
Early in the morning, Liu Junsheng hurriedly started his car and hurried over with several young adults.
Liu Junsheng looked at Li Baoqiang, not seeing him for a long time, and suddenly realized that Li Baoqiang seemed to have changed.
The camouflage training uniform was hung in tatters on Li Baoqiang's body, but it still could not hide the murderous aura in his body, and the murderous aura seemed to be stronger. After experiencing the transformation of the battle of life and death, he became more mysterious and powerful. Li Baoqiang burst out with
His powerful aura makes people dare not act in front of him.
Li Baoqiang did not notice the changes in his own growth. He felt that he was still the unlucky veteran who just kept saving people because of Professor Zhao's instructions.
After meeting Liu Junsheng, Li Baoqiang took everyone directly to the flour warehouse.
The sight was a mess, with blood and flesh flying everywhere. The flour warehouse was beyond recognition. The roof was blown off by the blast wave, leaving only the steel frame structure. The door and window glass were all shattered, and three walls collapsed. Dead rats covered the ground blackly, filling the air.
It has the smell of burnt flour and the aroma of barbecue.
Everyone gasped, there were so many rats, tens of thousands, it was absolutely terrifying.
"Brother, how did you do this?" Fatty Wang Zhiming was not ambiguous and directly called Li Baoqiang his eldest brother.
Li Baoqiang accepted this title. After last night's life and death experience, he also accepted and recognized the fat and thin duo.
"Flour explodes!" Li Baoqiang said calmly.
"How can flour explode if it's not dynamite?" everyone wondered.
Li Baoqiang briefly explained: "Flour explosion refers to the phenomenon of flour particles exploding when exposed to an open flame. During the production process, a large amount of extremely fine flour dust is produced. When these dusts are suspended in the air and reach a very high concentration
, for example, when there are 9.7g of flour per cubic meter of air, once it encounters flames, sparks, arcs or appropriate temperatures, it will burn instantly and form a violent explosion, which is no less powerful than a bomb."
Everyone suddenly understood and secretly admired Li Baoqiang's profound knowledge. The joke was that the Marines could make dozens of bombs, but flour bombs were child's play.
The fat and thin duo finally understood a series of arrangements made by Li Baoqiang last night. Li Baoqiang arranged for the fat man and the thin man to raise flour and attract rats at the same time. At this time, the dust had not yet settled, and then ignited and exploded.
"What a meticulous plan!" the fat man praised.
At the same time, the fat man Wang Zhiming had a special feeling in his heart.
After the three people escaped from the granary in embarrassment last night, they felt that they had no way to deal with the rats. However, Li Baoqiang was able to come up with this method in a hurry and implemented it boldly and carefully. Could he have done it himself?
The fat man looked at Li Baoqiang again and shook his head.
Even if I could be as capable as Li Baoqiang and face the rats again and risk myself, I still wouldn't be able to do it because if I miss, I will be left with nothing but bones.
Fatty's eyes became eager, and from then on Fatty became Li Baoqiang's staunchest supporter.
Liu Junsheng directed everyone to carry the rice to the car. He had food in his hands and was not panicking. The final data had not yet been calculated. Li Baoqiang looked at the rice that would take several cars to load, and he felt relieved.
More than 100 people, even if they eat sparingly, need at least 100 kilograms of rice for one day. This rice, plus the food collected in the town, is enough for the victims to last for two or three months.
When Li Baoqiang was checking the grain depot, he found another car in the garage. It was a 213 vintage jeep. Because it was stored in the garage, it had not been affected by acid rain and its appearance was still bright.
There was no key and a tire was flat, but this was no problem for Liu Junsheng, an old car repairman.
He rummaged in the garage, found repair tools and a spare tire, and quickly repaired the Jeep.
Liu Junsheng threw a universal car key he had to Li Baoqiang. Li Baoqiang went up and tried to ignite the ignition, and the jeep started happily.
Li Baoqiang asked the fat and thin duo to sit in the back seat, and asked the female soldier Wu Chun to sit in the front passenger seat. They walked around the grain depot yard a few times and then drove onto the road of the town.
For a moment, Li Baoqiang felt like he was walking with the United States, and at the same time he felt like he was scolding Fang Qiu and commanding thousands of troops.
But in the end, Li Baoqiang calmed down and shook his head.
I am a veteran. By chance, I survived the apocalypse and saved a group of people. I just kept saving people for the sake of saving people.
In addition, my abilities are limited to fighting and surviving in the wild. Whether I can survive in the doomsday is still a question mark. How can I lead the refugees to move forward and get out of the haze?
Li Baoqiang smiled awkwardly and threw this idea away.
At noon, two cars transported a total of six loads of grain, and the little girl and her brother who were rescued from the grain depot were sent back to school as soon as possible.
The school is only a kilometer away from the town, so the trip back and forth is quick. People in the school see food and hope.
The last cart of grain had been loaded. Li Baoqiang straightened out his tattered clothes, summoned all the people, and waved his hand: "Let's go home."
Everyone suddenly became excited. When they returned home, it had been a long time since anyone had heard this kind words.
Before the earthquake, during the New Year and holidays, no matter how busy or far away people were, they would always try their best to go home, get together with their loved ones, and enjoy family happiness.
Home is where hope is, home is a place of warmth. No matter how hard you endure outside, you will be diluted by the deep affection after returning home.
However, after the apocalypse, people live in shabby shacks, running around to avoid gangsters and wild dogs, and just for a bite to eat. Home is gone, and the concept of going home is gone.
Now Li Baoqiang's words "let's go home" have made people excited again. There is no home to build again.
Rebuild our home, let's go home!
All these changes were brought about by this young veteran. People can't help but be full of hope for the future again, and they also respect this young veteran Li Baoqiang.
The three-vehicle team, with Li Baoqiang's jeep at the front, was still the same team, the fat and thin duo and Wu Chun, other female soldiers and young adults sat in the last car, marching on the road from the small town to the school.
On the road.
