The original poster said that because it was too hot, he had been lazy for a day and didn't go to take out the garbage.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the afternoon, while he was half asleep and half awake, he heard a buzzing sound.
When he was woken up and opened his eyes, he saw green-headed flies flying everywhere in the room.
The original poster said that he was scared silly at that time.
However, Liu Ruoyan thought that he probably wasn't really scared silly, otherwise there wouldn't be this post.
Thinking of this, Liu Ruoyan couldn't help but remember a very popular sentence in the short videos before - When something happens, don't panic. First, take out your mobile phone and post a moment on WeChat Moments.
Liu Ruoyan didn't know whether the original poster had posted on WeChat Moments, but posting it on Tieba had shocked quite a lot of people.
Many people left messages below one after another, saying that they had never seen such big green-headed flies, let alone so many at once.
But Liu Ruoyan scrolled down a bit and saw that someone had also posted pictures, which also showed green-headed flies.
The appearance of green-headed flies meant that the apocalypse was about to officially begin.
Under normal circumstances, flies are especially active at 30 - 35℃, and they stop moving due to overheating at 35 - 40℃.
At 45 - 47℃, they will die.
But now the temperature during the day has reached almost sixty degrees, and the ground temperature is even higher.
Under such circumstances, not only have the flies not become extinct, but they are even bigger and more active than before.
Liu Ruoyan isn't a scientist and doesn't understand what has caused this phenomenon.
However, Liu Ruoyan, who had experienced one apocalypse, knew that these flies had an extremely strong reproductive ability.
They lay eggs everywhere, and they can grow up in three to five days, fly around everywhere, and then lay eggs again.
Just thinking about the situation of being surrounded by these green-headed flies in her previous life made Liu Ruoyan feel disgusted.
Besides flies, mosquitoes and rats have also become rampant, and there are also cockroaches in the south.
Liu Ruoyan lives in the north and hasn't seen cockroaches with her own eyes.
But she had also seen some pictures on the Internet in her previous life, and the disgusting level was something Liu Ruoyan still didn't want to recall.
These mosquitoes and insects have adapted to the environment faster than people. Moreover, they steal and damage people's supplies.
Originally, due to the hot weather and power rationing, it was already not easy to preserve supplies.
The sharp increase in mosquitoes and insects has made the situation even worse.
All food must be sealed and stored in a cool place. It's best to finish eating cooked food within an hour, and garbage must be disposed of in a timely manner.
If you are lazy in just one aspect, not only will you go hungry, but you will also be besieged by flies and mosquitoes, or see rats scurrying around.
Liu Ruoyan had experienced all of these in her previous life.
Having had such an experience once, Liu Ruoyan didn't want to go through it a second time at all.
Not caring to read the content of the post anymore, Liu Ruoyan quickly got up.
First, she carefully cleaned the house thoroughly, and then put all the unnecessary furniture into her space.
Liu Ruoyan didn't have much furniture originally, and after putting away most of it, the whole room looked even more empty.
Even so, Liu Ruoyan couldn't be completely at ease.
Liu Ruoyan took out the insecticide and sprayed it everywhere in the corners.
The toilet and the sewer were even more important and couldn't be overlooked.
After finishing these tasks, Liu Ruoyan then went to wash up.
Even though she had slept with the air-conditioning fan on, when Liu Ruoyan woke up, she still felt sticky all over.
Fortunately, the water was being supplied now, so it was convenient to take a shower.
That night, Liu Ruoyan didn't go out again.
She just lifted a corner of the curtain to look outside after it was completely dark.
The street lamps in the community were on, and she could see that there were still quite a lot of people outside, and it sounded quite lively.
But Liu Ruoyan knew that this situation wouldn't last long.
In just a few days, the number of flies and mosquitoes increased sharply. Many people on the Internet were posting, saying that their homes had been occupied by flies and mosquitoes.
Although these flies and mosquitoes had adapted to the current high temperature, they also hid in the shade during the day. Only when the sun had set and the temperature had dropped a bit in the evening would they fly out.
If flies are just disgusting, then mosquitoes are both disgusting and hateful.
These mosquitoes are more venomous than before. After being bitten, the skin will quickly become red, swollen, itchy, and painful.
Even more hateful is that they will also lay their eggs inside.
Originally, everyone would go downstairs for a stroll to breathe the scalding fresh air after it got dark.
But now, even when it was completely dark outside, there were very few people.
People who had to go out no longer dressed in short-sleeved shirts and shorts like before. Instead, they wrapped themselves up tightly from head to toe.
The number of people who had a fever and high temperature after being bitten by mosquitoes increased sharply. At night, ambulances could be heard throughout the city, busy all the time.
Some of the people who were taken to the hospital were saved, but some never opened their eyes again.
The hospital was already overcrowded, and with this new wave of patients, there was hardly any room to stand.
Liu Ruoyan saw the pictures of the hospital posted by someone on the Internet and was also silent.
In this kind of weather, the dead must be cremated quickly, otherwise the corpses will rot in a day.
At night, besides the sound of ambulances, there was also the sound of funeral cars.
The temperature didn't drop, the resumption of work was nowhere in sight, prices were rising rapidly, the supplies in hand were not easy to preserve, and with the annoyance of the intense heat, mosquitoes and flies, and the death of relatives, some people couldn't bear it and chose to commit suicide.
However, there were also some people who, under such circumstances, infinitely magnified the dark corners of their hearts.
Since seeing the green-headed flies, Liu Ruoyan hadn't gone out for half a month.
Thinking that her neighbors all went out to buy supplies at night, she thought that she should also go for a trip.
Putting on long-sleeved shirts and long pants, wearing a mask, a hat, and gloves, Liu Ruoyan fully armed herself before quickly opening the door, slipping out, and then closing the door extremely quickly.
It was nine o'clock in the evening. It was completely dark, but the power had already been cut off.
Liu Ruoyan came to the stairwell and slowly walked down the stairs one step at a time.
Liu Ruoyan lived on the 18th floor. It was okay to walk down, but she would have to walk back up later.
Even though Liu Ruoyan had good physical strength, just thinking about it gave her a headache.
All the way to the underground parking lot, Liu Ruoyan first took out the insecticide and sprayed it on the car body before slipping into the car while the mosquitoes and flies didn't dare to approach.
Liu Ruoyan, who had sat in the car, let out a sigh of relief and drove away from the underground garage.
The community was very quiet, and hardly anyone could be seen.
Liu Ruoyan drove out of the community and headed straight for the nearby supermarket.
Before she even got close to the supermarket entrance from a distance, Liu Ruoyan saw a long queue.
Recently, the purchase restrictions on supplies have become stricter and stricter, and the number of people allowed to enter each time also needs to be controlled.
In this way, naturally, people have to queue up.
Liu Ruoyan didn't want to queue up.
She planned to stroll around outside and then drive back, and then take out some supplies from her space and carry them upstairs.
Liu Ruoyan had just turned the direction and hadn't driven far when she found that she was being followed.
Not many people drove out now. After all, the price of gasoline had more than quintupled. Ordinary people could hardly afford to eat, let alone drive.
Rebirth to the end of the world with space
