Doomsday foresight

"If you are worried, go with them. There is nothing you can't let go of at home. There is your second uncle and others at home, and Zhang Zhong and the others will not go." The old man looked at Jinxi's low mood these two days, thinking that the young man must He likes to go outside for a walk. Jinxi has been at home since he came back last year, and he went to the city once two days ago. It's a rare opportunity to go out, and he doesn't want to trap Jinxi at home.

"I'd better stay here, or I won't worry about it." Jin Xi shook his head, he really wanted to go out, not only worried about Jiang Chen, but also wanted to see what was going on outside.

"Go, go, there is nothing to worry about. It's cold, and there is no work, and we won't go out. Judging from the current situation, it will be difficult to go to other places in the future. You have been busy all day for more than a year. , I also feel pressure in my heart, so I should relax when I go out, and I can rest assured that Jiang Chen is here."

"Yes, your grandfather is right, don't worry about us." Grandma followed suit.

Jinxi nodded, "Then I'll go out once, don't go out when grandma is at home."

"Don't worry, since you're going to go out and get your things ready, you'll have to come back in a month or two. You must bring more clothes, so you don't get cold." Thinking about it, grandma went down to the ground to help him clean up.

"Don't be too busy, grandma. I can clean it up myself." Jin Xi hurriedly grabbed the old lady.

Jiang Chen knew that Jin Xi was going with him, so he was so happy that he picked him up and walked around.It made Jinxi's face flushed.

There are six people going out this time, Jinxi Jiangchen, Wei Ke, Director Zhang, Ye Ke, and Ye Jinhua.Zhang Yun knows the situation in the south, and has some connections, so he can help with things. Ye Ke and Ye Jinhua are the two Jiang Chen has more contact with. , These two have very good marksmanship.

The time to leave was pushed back a few days, mainly because Jiang Chen was worried about his family, and some things needed to be explained. When Company Commander Zhao and the others brought people over, each of them had automatic rifles. The weapons and equipment were quite good, but they didn’t have many bullets. Jiang Chen went to get a box of bullets and came back. With these bullets, there is no problem in terms of safety, not to mention that Company Commander Zhao and the others really know how to fight.

Of course, Zhang Zhong also kept some weapons there, and he would be armed in times of crisis.

Before leaving, Jinxi taught the villagers how to build the new house that he remembered, so that the house would be warm and easy to build.Because of some things, Company Commander Zhao and the others might freeze the house they built before for the winter, and it would be too cold to build a house for a month at most.In order to hurry up, Jinxi told them how to do it.

Five days later, a few people left in a car. This car was Jiang Chen and the others bought a Ford seven-seater business SUV from the city. Vik spent two days making simple modifications to the car, making it more suitable for long-distance travel. , safety and performance have been improved, and the interior space is also large, except that the front driver and co-pilot remain unchanged, and the rear seats are all removed. There is a space of about half a meter below for storing items, and the top is separated by a mattress. Although it can't sit like a seat, it can allow several people to lie down and sleep at the same time, and seat belts are added around the car.

Sitting like this is actually not very comfortable. They can't find a bigger car, which is inflexible and consumes fuel. Moreover, they have to come back as soon as possible. It is too cold and the car can't start.So when they go, they try not to stay on the road as much as possible. Several people have to take turns to drive, which is also convenient for catching up on sleep.

Although there were disasters of one kind or another, the roads had been opened for a period of time after the disaster. The plants in the north did not grow as fast as in the south, so they drove for a whole day and passed the capital without encountering obstacles.It was a smooth journey, but the sight they saw made them feel cold.They saw that the four cities had completely disappeared, and they were filled with lakes one after another. They were large craters made by meteorites, and groundwater overflowed to form lakes.The scope of influence is too large.

They didn't go in when they passed by the capital, and it was a desolate scene far away, many places were hit by meteorites, but the meteorites were not big at least they could still see the appearance of the city.They didn't know how many people were still inside.

They thought the situation would be better after passing through the capital, but when they got here they found that the situation was worse than they thought. The road was very difficult. They clearly felt the power of the earthquake. Many cities were in ruins. The ruins were covered with vegetation.From a distance, it looked like a strange mountain. Jinxi suddenly thought that last year, there was no signal, and there was no way to watch the TV. After that, the meteorite landed. They had no source of information, but since then, there has been no disaster in their village. He thought everything It's all over, and seeing this scene now, maybe the outside world has changed a lot before he knew it.

"So when we arrived in your village, we felt heaven." At this time, Director Zhang expressed his feelings when he saw Jinxi's village for the first time.At that time, there were scenes of destruction everywhere along the way. Even if I went to City C, I still felt dilapidated and destroyed. Only their villages, farmland villages, and green smoke rising faintly could be seen through the stone wall. The people inside live a peaceful life, and they really feel like they have come to a paradise.

"I didn't expect it to look like this outside." No matter how scary the nightmare is, no eyes can really see it so scary.

"It's even harder to recognize you in the south." Zhang Yun narrowed his eyes as if recalling something.

As if to confirm what Zhang Yun said, the further south you go, the more unrecognizable it is. After crossing the big river, they will see plants everywhere, lush and green. If this road was not waded by the car in front, they might not be able to find it. to the road.

The more south you go, the more difficult it is to walk. Some vines climbed across the road, and the car had to be careful, otherwise it would break down. Also, be careful whether there is a roadblock ahead. They have encountered several serial car collisions.Sometimes I have to go around too far.

They had walked for ten days for a journey that would have taken eight or nine hours. If Zhang Yun hadn't shown them the way, they would have lost their way.

"Actually, I don't recognize it very clearly. This road is much more difficult than when we came here."

"Look—" Jin Xi suddenly pointed outside.

Everyone just saw a black piece of sky flying in the distance. "What is it?" Ye Ke asked curiously, and wanted to open the window.

"You can't open the window." Zhang Yun hurriedly stopped, "Jinhua stop the car." Jinhua stopped the car obediently, and everyone in the car was made nervous by him.

In less than half a minute, they heard buzzing outside from the car, and then Jinxi by the window saw yellow flying insects the size of fists. "Is that a bee?"

"Hmm. It's scary." Zhang Yun saw these terrifying flying insects again, with fear still in his eyes.

"It's too scary." Jin Xi nodded, it's really scary, this is not a nightmare, it's real.

"These are fine, don't take the initiative to attack people, as long as you don't provoke them, those mosquitoes will hate them."

"I can't imagine what mosquitoes will be like now." Jin Xi shook his head, "Oh, you didn't realize that there weren't any bugs in our place this summer. It stands to reason that last year's locusts were so powerful, so there should be some this year."

"Maybe it's too cold here, so the bugs froze to death." Jiang Chen guessed.

"Compared with here, our home is really a paradise. I really don't understand why those people moved to the south." Ye Ke said with great emotion.

"At least the south won't starve. Don't look at these bugs as annoying, but they have become people's food now, just like the bees just now, they grow bigger and have more honey. I saw a hunting team get one The honeycomb is five meters high and four meters in diameter. The honey and bee chrysalis in it are very delicious food. I heard that they exchanged a lot of food. And there are many fruits in the forest. There is a forest in Lingnan every year The period of time has been extended tenfold. Bamboo grows fast, and ordinary bamboo can fully grow in one to four months. Even the city is covered by bamboo forests, and the bamboo rats and golden pheasants in the forests breed in large numbers. There is little danger there. Food is readily available."

"I heard that the bamboo rat is delicious, has Brother Zhang ever eaten it?" Jinxi asked curiously.

Zhang Yun nodded, "Yes, we lived in the bamboo forest for a month, and now the bamboo rats have grown so big. Not to mention the tender meat, the taste is good. We will go to Xincheng later. There are replacements there. You want If you want to eat, you can exchange it with grain, and the corn noodles and rice we brought are all bestsellers."

Jinxi looked at Zhang Yun and made a gesture. The bamboo rat was almost as big as a pig.

Along the way, they heard Zhang Yun talk about things here, and they came to Xincheng when it was getting dark.
