Natural disaster at the beginning: I will lead the system to build a safe zone

I can’t fool the waiter, but I still have to look at the rewards.

Shi Anan clicked on the flashing Changping Town Exploration Gift Pack in her backpack:

[Congratulations to the host for receiving 500 taels of silver and 1 intermediate weather function upgrade installation package]

Hey? Look what she came up with!

Forget about the silver, she doesn't need that little money. What's important is the weather function upgrade installation package.

It turns out that the system’s weather query function can really be upgraded!

——Waiter, what changes will there be after the weather function is upgraded?

[Host, the weather query function provided by the system is at the primary level by default, and can only query the weather of the current day. After upgrading, it will become the primary level, and can predict the weather for the next 5 days. ]

——So it has been upgraded to weather forecast? But isn’t your intermediate level a bit low? Back then, we could get weather forecasts for the next seven days, 15 days, or even a month.

[But our weather forecast is absolutely guaranteed to be accurate, can you? And a month's weather forecast is something that only advanced functions can do, please try your best to explore! ]

The waiter who was questioned was a little unhappy.

Okay, it's better to be able to predict the weather for the next five days than to only be able to predict the weather for the current day. This way, if there is any abnormal change in temperature, she will be able to discover it at the first time.

Shi Anan selected the upgrade package and clicked to use it. Within a few seconds, the system's weather function was upgraded.

The upgraded weather function interface is not much different from the previous one. The only change is that there are a few more weather icons with the temperature and date marked below.

Shi Anan looked at the weather for the next five days. Well, it was good. There would be no rain and the temperature was over 20 degrees, which was a comfortable temperature.

"Miss Shi, we have searched almost all of Changping Town. There are no more supplies available. When are we leaving?" At this time, Yan Fei ran over and asked.

In fact, during the search in Changping Town, Shi Anan really didn't find anything useful. The useful supplies were almost all destroyed. If she hadn't been given an exploration reward this time, she would actually have gained nothing.

Therefore, she was not prepared to stay here for long: "Yan Fei, do you know which way to go to the county?"

Yan Fei scratched his head in annoyance. "Miss Shi, you are not planning to go to the county, are you? Our Changping Town is the farthest town from the county. It usually takes nearly half a month to go there by pipeline or carriage. And when the accident happened, I went to the official road to check. It was blocked there, and the road was blocked by some rocks, which could not be cleared at all."

"Is there no other way to get to the county?" Shi Anan was a little surprised. If there was no way to the county, wouldn't they be trapped here?

"I don't know either. We have always been on the official road. We are surrounded by mountains and water. It is not easy to communicate with the outside world. Otherwise, we would not be called a remote and poor place with poor conditions by outsiders."

Although Yan Fei used to be a deliveryman, the number of times he went to the county to deliver goods was very few.

Shi Anan was a little disappointed. It seemed that she would have to reconsider going to the county.

Almost a month has passed since she left Guangming Village, including the time spent on the road. Although she can learn about the current situation in Guangming Village through the team channel every day, she has been out for too long, not only are Liu and the others worried, but she herself also can't let go of Guangming Village.

So she said to Yan Fei: "Tell the others, pack up and let's leave today."

"Oh! Okay, I'll go right away." Yan Fei ran over excitedly to inform other people.

After counting the number of people, there are a total of 288 people who are willing to follow Shi Anan back to Guangming Village this time. This is already the majority of the people here.

The rest of the people either didn't want to make any effort or didn't really trust Shi Anan.

An An did not try to persuade these people any further. Everyone had to be responsible for their own choices. She had already done her best by providing them with meals for a few days.

The people quickly packed up their things and waited to set off. Although it was said that they were packing up, there was actually not much to pack. The most important thing was Shi Anan's grain truck.

Since she decided to provide them with meals, Shi Anan pretended to go outside and push a cart loaded with several sacks of food. There were many people here and not all of them could be trusted, so it was not convenient for her to take things out of her backpack every day.

The problem with doing this is that they have to push the cart on the road, and their days on the road may not be as comfortable as when she and Xiao Yi were out together.

But Yan Fei and his friends didn't think pushing the grain cart was a difficult thing. For those of them who had experienced hunger, having so much grain to push gave them a sense of security and happiness.

Walking on the road, Shi Anan and Xiao Yi were leading the way in the front. Yan Fei and others were pushing carts behind them. The child named Shuanzi and the woman who they first met were also following closely behind them.

The woman's surname was Zhao, so Shi Anan called her Aunt Zhao. Aunt Zhao followed Shi Anan, holding the silent Shuanzi, and chatted with her in random places.

"Aunt Zhao, is Shuanzi born unable to speak?" Shi Anan asked after taking a look at Shuanzi. Now that Shuanzi had eaten a full meal and cleaned his hair and clothes, he finally looked less like the dirty little beggar before.

"No, Shuanzi used to be very lively. He must have been frightened by what happened that night. He hasn't spoken since then." Aunt Zhao touched Shuanzi's head lovingly. Shuanzi was about the same age as her child.

That should be post-traumatic stress disorder. Witnessing a great disaster at such a young age and seeing his parents die tragically in front of him is indeed a big shock to a child. We can only wait and see if returning to Guangming Village and the optimistic environment there can make him feel better.

"It will be fine." Shi Anan comforted Aunt Zhao. She was also a miserable but strong woman.

On the way back, Shi Anan did not take them directly along the mountain road, but went to a nearby village to check the situation.

However, relying on Yan Fei's memory of delivering goods, he searched two or three villages in a row and found that the damage there was even more serious than in the town. As for living people, no one was seen. The shocking scenes along the way made Shi Anan's heart even heavier.

The disaster of hail, extreme cold and meteorite shower was a devastating disaster for the people here. Just like the earthquake and tsunami that the capital had experienced before, people seemed so insignificant in the face of nature.

Although she no longer had any hope for the village behind, Shi Anan still asked Yan Fei to lead the way and investigate.

The village they walked to today was also a big village here. Its population at its peak was comparable to that of Liujia Village. It was called Dahe Village. The village was also composed of several clans with the same surnames. Before the end of the world, its population was almost a thousand.

However, their village was not as lucky as the previous Liujia Village. Many villagers were killed by the hail, and the population dropped sharply to less than 600. The old village chief was also killed. Without a leader and with a reduced population, they naturally could not compare with the larger Liujia Village.

During the extreme cold, the newly appointed village chief brought the villagers to the town to survive for a while. Later, because of the bullying from Liujia Village, he had to return to the village. No one knows what the situation is like now.
