Encounter the Ice Age

Hanni did not receive a text message to remind him, so Zhao Qingjing waited here for Hanni to call the bank to confirm the transfer status.

Hanni put down the phone and said by the way that he planned to go to the bank tomorrow, and Zhaoqing didn't ask too much about what Hanni was going to do at the bank.Just like how these gasoline megagreens are going to be taken away, Hanni won't ask too much.

Hanni is a very strong old man, and the warehouse door is tightly and firmly made. He took Zhaoqing and opened a warehouse in the heavy rain. About half of the warehouse was filled with gasoline barrels, and the other half turned out to be haystacks.

Zhaoqing nodded, and asked: "Mr. Hanny, why is the gasoline on the shelf?" It was the first time he saw the place where gasoline was stored. All the gasoline barrels were piled up one by one. shelf.This empty space can hold a lot of gasoline cans, which is not in line with the space utilization rate.

"Afraid of ground fire, every warehouse has this shelf."

Afraid of fire?Zhaoqing was a little puzzled, since even ground fires could be prevented, how could there be such a flammable haystack next to the gasoline.

Hanni: "Haystacks are good things. They are extremely flammable and can burn even if they get wet, but they can quickly return to temperature."

"Oh, Mr. Hanny, can I get some haystacks? I can pay you." Zhaoqing felt that his tone was too strong and felt abrupt, "Sorry, do you have any extra haystacks? Can you share them with me?" some?"

"Take it, I still have a warehouse. This thing looks worthless but no one knows it's a good thing." Hanni threw the key to Zhaoqing, "Leo, who sells coal, said he rented one of his three warehouses to you." Yue, this warehouse of mine also counts as one month for you. Just throw away the key after you’ve used it up, and I’ll be able to open it in a natural way if I have a chance in the future.”

Zhaoqing's expression changed, no wonder Hanni asked him so many questions, Hanni already knew about the resource collection between him and his first boss, Leo.

"Everyone has his secrets. I'm not curious about yours. I just hope that we are all lucky." Zhaoqing half-understands what Hanni said. I don't know if Hanni is going to take money to report him, or... It's just an old man's instructions to see through the world and be compassionate.

"However, kid, you have to remember all the warehouses around here, only my warehouse is a red top, and they are all gathered in this area. The red top means that there is no smoking nearby, understand? The red top is full of gasoline, you Remembering is better than throwing away..." Hanni said, put some tobacco into the pipe, lit it, and smoked slowly.

Zhao Qing was puzzled, Hanni said it strangely, but he nodded and said, "I remember Mr. Hanni."

Hanni took a deep look at Zhaoqing and left quickly, leaving all the space for Zhaoqing.

Looking at Hanni's back, Zhaoqing always felt that the old man might know something, but maybe it was just that Zhaoqing himself was too sensitive.

As it was getting dark, Zhaoqing hurriedly put away all the gasoline cans, Zhaoqing was much more relaxed when he did this for the second time.

On the drive back, Zhaoqing thought that it would be all right even if Hanni found out, he was half lucky and half willing to throw the can at will.He is still majestic and unknowable, but it doesn't matter anymore, his current mood is as if he wanted to fuck the whole world at once, so he can do whatever he likes.

Zhaoqing no longer beats the drum in his heart, all the things he has done cannot be reversed, the secret that has been carefully kept for more than 20 years, once it leaves traces, it will never be erased.

Zhaoqing moved slowly in the car, maybe someone with a heart has already discovered his secret, just like the warm Mrs. Connor, it is a gift from God to be able to survive safely until today.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there was more and more water, and the windshield wipers couldn't wipe away the splashed water on the front window.

Zhaoqing suddenly had a very sour nose. He had been silent all along, but the silence before was due to his low self-esteem and timidity to speak.But at this moment, he was deeply aware of his own insignificance and depressing silence, and the sadness of the rabbit died and the fox occupied his whole heart at this moment, and he wanted to see Chen Yang very, very much.

It was around 7 o'clock in the evening that Zhaoqing went back to the urban area, and his car turned off when he was two bends away from Chen Yang's house.

Zhaoqing tried for a long time without turning on the fire, and he was still thinking that if the car couldn't cover this distance, it would be okay to walk back, when he happened to see a camping supply store out of the corner of his eye.

The owner kept piling up sandbags to prevent the water from entering his shop. At this moment, the car started up again with a bang, and Zhaoqing got out of the car without even taking his umbrella.

Zhaoqing bought some windproof suits, diving suits, swimming rings, tents and sleeping bags according to the figures of himself and Chen Yang, as well as a lot of ropes and a few oxygen cylinders for diving.He bought everything he could think of, including a few boards for surfing.

A car is full except for the driver's seat, and the trunk cannot be pressed.

As if the car was about to take Zhaoqing home at the end of its strength, Lao Niu walked slowly back to the downstairs of Chen Yang's house.The supplies in the car were put into the small world warehouse by Zhaoqing, and Zhaoqing took a look at all the shops around, including the 24-hour convenience store.

When Zhaoqing returned home, he threw his wet clothes in the hallway, but there was still no hot water in the bathroom. He rushed over symbolically, tore off the blanket from the back of the sofa, wrapped it around his body, boiled water and drank two cups, and his bruised lips returned to rosy. .

The mobile phone signal and even the communication signal in the city began to be intermittent. Zhaoqing made several calls but still couldn't get through to Chen Yang's line.Chen Yang's landline continued to beep beeping, and the communication was completely cut off.

At this moment, Zhao Qing really wanted to talk to Chen Yang, he wanted to tell Chen Yang that he had spent all of Chen Yang's money, and he wanted to hear Chen Yang's voice, even if he called him a prodigal.

Zhao Qing thought about it and smiled, he spent the whole day in absolute tension, he drove up and down the stairs, obviously very busy but couldn't stop thinking about Chen Yang.The airport and the railway were closed as early as this morning's news, and Los Angeles is neither far nor near but enough for Chen Yang to come back.

Thinking of this, Zhaoqing felt even colder. He got up and took out sliced ​​ginger and boiled two pots of water to wash his head and feet again. He boiled another bowl of noodle soup and stuffed it all into his stomach before he recovered.

When Zhao Qing wanted to stand up to wash the dishes, he sat down on the ground, his legs were sore.He simply sat between the sofa and the coffee table holding the bowl for a while before standing up again, threw the bowl into the sink and walked two steps into the bed.

After relaxing, Zhaoqing felt that his nose was a little stuffy, so he quickly poured a glass of water on the bed and took antipyretics.His small world warehouse is in a vacuum state, and any items stored in it will be kept in the current state. He used to buy various common medicines regularly and regularly all year round, and now the reserves of common medicines are very sufficient.

Before Zhaoqing closed her eyes, she turned the volume of the phone to the maximum, turned on the vibration and held it in her hand.He slept until noon the next day and didn't wake up. He had a headache and the first thing he looked at his phone was, but there was no message or call.

And the rain outside the window still didn't stop.

Zhaoqing went to the kitchen and found that the outer windows of the kitchen had been shattered by hailstones, and a fist-sized hailstone was still shining brightly on his window sill.Fortunately, this building has double-layer windows, and the inner layer has not been affected, otherwise the house would not be able to block the wind.

Zhaoqing rubbed his head and drank some hot water. He didn't remember hearing the sound of the glass being smashed at all, and he didn't know if he didn't notice it when he went shopping, or he didn't hear it when he fell asleep. .

But now Zhaoqing could hear the terrifying sound of heavy rain, strong wind, and hail pinching, and he looked down at the situation downstairs.

It would be better not to see the traces of extreme weather everywhere.

The signboards of the downstairs store were blown down and smashed to the ground in strong winds, and some cars that were hit kept beeping and calling the police.Buses have been submerged in the water, and bicycles and skateboards are floating on the water.Some people walk in waist-high water to purchase supplies, and umbrellas are of little significance.

Zhaoqing's decision is very correct at this moment, it is very difficult to go out now, private cars can't drive on the road, but there are several water motorcycles speeding past, he heard the crazy howls of those people like cheers It's like crying again.

Zhao Qing saw many people on the opposite side leaning against the window and looking out, some were crying, some were hugging, and some like Zhao Qing were silently looking outside.

Zhao Qing didn't dare to look any more, walked back to the sofa silently and sat between the sofa and coffee table, this is Chen Yang's favorite place, Chen Yang never sits on the sofa well and always puts himself here.

Zhaoqing misses Chen Yang very much, and misses Chen Yang crazily who has been her boyfriend for less than a week.He hoped that Chen Yang could go to the southern hemisphere, and if the southern hemisphere could escape, let Chen Yang be there.

He thought about it and laughed at his naivety. The real world is not a movie. Because it is not a movie, there may be no final pure land, no last Eden, and no final redemption.

There was no stable output of the picture on the TV, so Zhaoqing chose to turn on the radio and listen to something casually, rather than listening to the sound of howling ghosts and wolves outside.

But everything could not ease the oppressive feeling in his chest, Zhaoqing began to frantically hope that Chen Yang would return to him, he didn't want to be alone.It was as if he had been torn apart and became two people, asking Chen Yang to stop somewhere to be safe, and asking Chen Yang to come back to him.

Zhaoqing's head still hurt, he tried it with the back of his hand, it was hot to the touch, and took a piece of antipyretic medicine.

Zhaoqing stood up and decided to boil some hot water, but he felt a shaking of a smile. At first, he thought it was because he had a fever and couldn't stand still.Feel it for a while, no!It was the whole building that was shaking.

Zhaoqing immediately threw the blanket on the ground and began to tidy up Chen Yang's room. He put all the items into the small world warehouse to ensure that there were no other debris in the room except the table and sofa.Don't do everything well, only to die from a knife thrown out in the shock.

Zhao Qing eagerly pulled her thoughts back to the present moment, the host on the radio could no longer control her tone.

Zhaoqing heard: "Huge walls of water appear along the coast of New York and Seattle and are about to pour into the cities. The waves caused by the huge tsunami are advancing from north to south and invading all coastal cities. Please be prepared for disaster prevention."

Disaster preparedness?

Zhaoqing threw the radio into the small world, went into the bathroom, placed two diving bottles in the bathtub, and squeezed the big dining table on top of the bathtub, so that he could be temporarily sheltered from earthquakes or ocean waves, and temporarily Enough for him to enter the small world to hide.

Zhaoqing enters the small world and exits wherever he enters, and he also needs a space to flow out here so that he can come out before he can think of a way.Besides, the sea water cannot stay forever when the waves hit it, and it will inevitably fall due to the difference in sea level.

If the seventh floor where Zhaoqing is located can be completely submerged, the whole world will turn into a water world, so we can only think of other ways.

Zhaoqing suddenly patted herself.

"Don't think about it! Don't think about it!" Zhaoqing yelled to herself, "Calm down, calm down! I've prepared a lot more than others, it's ok! Think about Chen Yang! Live, he's waiting for me !"

In fact, Zhaoqing can also hide in the small world right now, but people are used to asking for trouble, and he still belongs to this world.If this world falls, as a member of life on earth, he really doesn't want to hide in the first place.

More importantly, Zhaoqing didn't want to live alone in safety.

Even if she is not with Chen Yang now, at least Zhaoqing and her beloved have suffered a world change, whether it is a gift or a destruction.

Zhaoqing leaned sideways and got into the bathtub through the gap, curled up holding the oxygen bottle and waited.

Time passed by, Zhaoqing was in a daze, he seemed to hear Chen Yang calling his name, he suddenly smiled reassuringly while holding the oxygen cylinder.No matter where Chen Yang is, at least Chen Yang has not left him and is still in his heart.

Zhaoqing also needs a support in her heart... No, why is there a sound of slamming the door.

"Chen Yang!" Zhaoqing immediately rolled over from the gap between the bathtub and the dining table and ran to the door, opened the anti-theft chain and pushed the door open. He was greeted with a hug.

"Little!"

Zhao Qing was embraced by Chen Yang, who was covered in water, and he immediately hugged Chen Yang tightly without caring about anything else, tears falling down uncontrollably, like a drowning man catching floating weeds.

"You're back! Fortunately, you're back."

"I'm back! I'm back! Don't be afraid, Xiaoxiao." Chen Yang didn't let go of Zhaoqing and closed the door.

Zhaoqing suddenly realized, "Didn't I tell you? Don't go back to Seattle, go south, go south, why don't you listen to me!"

"I can't bear you, Xiaoxiao...I can die on the way towards you, but I can't live in the direction away from you." Chen Yang replied quickly, and kissed Zhaoqing twice vigorously intermittently.

This reluctance again, Zhao Qing didn't even know how Chen Yang went back to him through wind and rain for this reluctance.

"I'm sorry! Chen Yang, Chen Yang! I should have gone to you. I don't love you as much as you love me! I really, should have gone to you!" Zhaoqing has a small world that no one else has, and he should be brave !He should travel through the wind and snow to find Chen Yang.

"Are you crazy? Can you go out of the city on this kind of road? How many steps can you walk if the car can't drive? Why do you feel sorry for me? Fortunately, you didn't take a step! Fortunately, you listened to me and stayed at home. Otherwise, I would definitely I couldn't find you, but fortunately I didn't miss it!" Chen Yang's kiss was like his words, urgent and urgent.

The two meet each other in a precarious situation, desperately seeking each other's comfort, and soon their love for each other rises to the highest point in their hearts.
