Legend of Tiger Wolf

Chapter 174 The end is coming

"In Egyptian mythology, Apophis is an ancient evil and demon of destruction whose purpose is to plunge the entire world into perpetual darkness. At the beginning of this century, astronomers identified an asteroid that came straight to Earth from outer space. Named 'Apophis', because this asteroid with a diameter of about 400 meters will bring unprecedented catastrophic threats to mankind.

Asteroid Apophis will pass Earth in 2029.Because its orbit was changed by the gravity of the earth, it came to the earth again in 2036. This time it was closer to the earth, and its orbit was changed by the gravity of the earth again. In 2062, Apophis passed through the gravitational eye above the earth and was dragged into orbit around the earth.According to calculations, it will enter the atmosphere from above the North Pole in 2068, skim over the Siberian plain, pass through big cities such as New York, circle the earth for a week, and finally fall into North Africa.

At present, Apophis has reached the sixth level of the Torino scale, if it reaches the tenth level, it means an inevitable global catastrophic collision..."

Wei Tianyu walked into the house and heard the news being broadcast on TV.

Recently, all the media has been talking about this matter, because the asteroid with a destructive atmosphere has been very close to the earth, and in the night sky, its brightness is comparable to that of Venus.

Only a few people know that these news are deceiving people. Although many people are panicking now, the social order is still good. Everyone is confidently waiting for the countermeasures of the governments of various countries. If Fez is not one, but a group, I am afraid that the situation will immediately get out of control.

Sitting on the sofa watching TV were his 11-year-old sons Ling Xiao and Ling Yao, his 12-year-old daughter Wei Ling, and his [-]-year-old brother Tong Xu.These four children have never been like ordinary children. They don't like to watch anime. They only like to pay attention to scientific knowledge and study strange things. Even if they watch movies, they only watch science fiction movies and war movies.Seeing them paying attention to the news of the asteroid hitting the earth in a serious manner, Wei Tianyu's heavy heart relaxed a little.

The longer Tong Xu grew up, the more he resembled his father, Tong Yue, with a gentle temperament and a kind heart.The Xiaoyao Brothers will always remind Wei Tianyu of the first time he met Ling Zihan.Wei Ling has gathered the strengths of Wei Tianyu and Ling Zihan, and she has already faintly possessed the appearance of alluring the country at a young age, and everyone loves her.With such beautiful and mischievous four children, Meiyuan is no longer as cold and cold as it was when the Ling family and his son lived together in the past, and it is lively all day long.

Wei Tianyu entered the door silently, Wei Ling was the first to notice it, turned his head to look, jumped off the sofa with a smile, and ran towards his father.

Wei Tianyu smiled happily, leaned over to hug her, kissed her crystal clear face, heard her call "Daddy" delicately, felt sweet in his heart, and asked softly: "What are you both doing?" ?”

"Watch TV with my little uncle and my brother." Wei Ling's voice was crisp, with the tenderness of a child, "My brother said that a big stone is about to fall from the sky."

"Don't be afraid, with Dad and Dad around, nothing will happen." Wei Tianyu comforted him gently.

Wei Ling nodded again and again, "My brother said the same thing, I'm not afraid."

Wei Tianyu looked at her big watery eyes and liked her very much. He sat on the sofa with his arms around her, and then asked the other three boys, "Have you finished your homework?"

Now is an extraordinary period, and the adults of the Ling family are all very busy. Although they never bring their emotions home, Ling Xiao and Ling Yao can feel the tense atmosphere, so they didn't mess around like before, and they all behaved obediently Nodding, "It's done."

Tong Xu has always been sensible, so there is no need to ask, he must have done a good job, so Wei Tianyu didn't ask any more, and reached out and rubbed the heads of the three children affectionately, then put his daughter on his lap and watched TV with them.

After a while, Ling Zihan also came back.His face was pale and he coughed lightly from time to time, which made Wei Tianyu very worried.Seeing him with the children, Ling Zihan felt warm in his heart, smiled and walked over to sit down.

Wei Ling threw himself into his arms without hesitation, and shouted joyfully, "Father."

Ling Zihan stroked her face, and asked gently: "Are you both happy today?"

"Happy." Wei Ling replied affirmatively.

Ling Zihan looked up at his two sons, and asked kindly, "Didn't you fight today?"

The sons were also very honest, "I didn't fight."

"Very good." Ling Zihan smiled and embraced Tong Xu, "What book did you read today?"

"I didn't read the book." Tong Xu replied seriously, "We checked a lot of information to see if this Apophis will hit the earth."

"Yeah." Ling Zihan chatted with the children for a while, and an unconcealable tiredness gradually emerged between his brows.

Wei Tianyu took his daughter and put her on the sofa, and said with concern: "Go up and lie down for a while, and then come down when it's time to eat."

Ling Zihan nodded, went upstairs and entered the bedroom.

Wei Tianyu was very worried, but he couldn't show it in front of the children.He played with the children for a while, and seeing that none of the children noticed anything unusual, he quietly went upstairs to the bedroom.

The curtains were drawn down and the room was dimly lit.Ling Zihan was lying on the bed, breathing slowly, as if he had fallen asleep.

Wei Tianyu quietly walked to the bedside, Ling Zihan moved slightly, and said softly, "I'm fine."

Wei Tianyu sat on the edge of the bed, put his hand on his forehead, and then slowly slid down to his shoulder.Ling Zihan has become thinner and thinner recently, and his condition is obviously very bad, but he is too busy with work, he has held meetings for several days and nights, and he has no time to go to the hospital for an examination.He kept acting as if nothing had happened, and those assistants, superiors, and subordinates didn't notice it. Only Wei Tianyu knew about his situation, so he couldn't help worrying more and more day by day.

Ling Zihan held his hand silently, and comforted him: "I'm really fine, maybe I'm too tired recently, after I've been busy for a while, take a good rest, and I'll recover."

Wei Tianyu also hoped so.He was silent for a while, controlled his emotions, and said softly: "Let me check it for you."

"Okay." Ling Zihan understood his mood, so naturally he would not refuse.

Wei Tianyu turned on the light, went to the cabinet to get the medicine box, and asked while checking him, "How is the situation now?"

Ling Zihan participated in the secret meeting of the highest level. Wei Tianyu provided them with the satellite interpretation information they needed, but the technical information was provided by more than ten research groups from the Academy of Sciences, so he did not know the reason for the destruction. When will God come.

Ling Zihan closed his eyes, and said in a low voice: "The situation is very bad. The group of space meteorites behaved strangely. They were not formed naturally. They were obviously affected by external forces. With our current military level, we can't stop them at all. They must be smashed We have two years at most, and the retreat plan is limited to one and a half years."

Wei Tianyu looked at the data on the medical tester worriedly, but did not mention his condition, but asked him, "So the end is really coming?"

Ling Zihan opened his eyes and looked at him, and smiled softly, "We have already made preparations, even if the God of Destruction comes, it will not be the end of mankind."

Tong Yue came back late, with exhaustion on his face.

The rumors that the asteroid was about to hit the earth became more and more serious until the media officially reported it, causing people to panic. More and more people got drunk, made trouble, fought, and crashed into cars, and the number of injured people sent to their hospitals doubled. At least emergency operations are required, and the surgical staff is tight. The dean who originally only performed major operations also had to do general operations. He almost stood in front of the operating table and never got down.

As soon as he entered the door, Tong Xu went up to call "Daddy", Ling Xiao and Ling Yao rushed to help him, Wei Ling raised his face and asked, "Little Grandpa, are you tired?"

Tong Yue took the children to sit down, smiled contentedly and said, "I'm not tired."

They didn't say a few words, Wei Tianyu came downstairs, called "Dad" first, and then started to eat, "Dad said that there will be a meeting tonight, so we won't come back for dinner, let's eat first."

After Tong Yue and Ling Yi got married, Ling Zihan called him "Dad" instead. It was hard to tell the difference between the two called "Dad". Later, he called him "Tong Daddy" for a while until Xiaoyao Brotherhood called someone. One is called "Father" and the other is called "Dad". Ling Zihan and Wei Tianyu have learned to address the two fathers separately. Ling Yi is older, so they call him "Dad", and Tong Yue, who is young, calls him "Dad".

Tong Yue sat down at the table and asked casually, "Has Zihan not come back yet?"

"He's back." Wei Tianyu said calmly, "He's a little tired, lie upstairs for a while, let's eat first."

Tong Yue immediately realized something was wrong and looked up at him.There was worry in Wei Tianyu's eyes, which immediately made him understand.Looking at the children in front of him again, he didn't ask much, and said gently: "Then let's eat first, and I'll go and see him later."

Wei Tianyu was afraid that he would be tired, so he comforted him with a smile on his face, "Don't worry, let's talk about it later after eating, now is an extraordinary period, everyone should take care of their health, and don't be exhausted."

"Yes." Tong Yue chuckled, and then called the children to eat together.

Ling Yi has already retired, and he has the name of national policy advisor. He usually does not go to work. Once there is an emergency, the state leaders will call him, saying that he is attending high-level meetings, but actually asking him to help make suggestions.His body is very strong. He is in his 70s, but he looks like he is in his fifties. He has almost never been sick for so many years. I'm also used to it.After having a lively meal with the children, Tong Yue asked Tong Xu to take the children to have fun, and followed Wei Tianyu to their room.

Ling Zihan was still half-asleep and half-awake, and he knew that he was very uncomfortable.Tong Yue sat by the bed, did not look at the medical test data on the bedside table, but asked him softly, "Where is it uncomfortable? What are the symptoms?" Based on his intuition of treating Ling Zihan for a long time, he thought that Ling Zihan's this time The disease is not the same as before.

Ling Zihan thought for a while, and said with some uncertainty: "I don't think it's the same as before. It doesn't seem like a relapse of an old disease. I can't describe what I feel uncomfortable, but I feel tired, have a bad appetite, and often have colds. Symptoms, sometimes chest tightness, itchy throat, in recent days, in the afternoon, I feel dizzy and gradually weak. It’s not a big problem, I think it may be because of the heavy work recently.”

After Tong Yue listened carefully, he picked up the test paper on the bedside table and looked at the long string of data on it.The more he watched, the more he frowned, and he said after a while, "You go to the hospital with me now for a detailed examination." He was a little anxious, and the sophisticated medical equipment was too large to be moved, so he had to go to the hospital Otherwise, he would ask someone to come to the house to check on Ling Zihan.

Seeing his somewhat anxious expression, Ling Zihan was very calm, "Dad, don't worry, I'm not in an emergency, and it's okay to go to the hospital tomorrow. You should rest well tonight, don't make yourself sick."

Tong Yue's heart had a serious problem. Although the heart replacement operation was successful and it has been beating normally, the heavy workload recently will definitely make Tong Yue overwhelmed.In this family, every adult is a leader in his or her field, and anyone who falls ill is a great loss.

Wei Tianyu immediately agreed, "Yes, Dad, don't worry, Zihan will go to the hospital with you tomorrow morning."

Tong Yue was still worried, listened carefully to his heart and lungs with a stethoscope, and then agreed to their proposal, "Okay, go for an examination tomorrow morning, and then don't make excuses for me. Work is important, and your body more important."

"Okay, I'll definitely go." Ling Zihan assured him, and then found another topic, trying to ease their tension, "When will our little son be born?"

Tong Yue's frown was relaxed, and he said happily, "It's only been two days. He looks very good, and he must be a smart and beautiful boy."

This is the second child who uses the common gene between Wei Tianyu and Ling Zihan. Originally, Wei Tianyu did not agree to have another child. He was already satisfied with having both children, but Ling Zihan insisted on applying for another child. Wei Tianyu's objection was invalid , and understood his intentions, so he acquiesced.Since the birth of a baby can be carried out in the hospital with the help of medical means, countries and regions with negative population growth have become treasures. However, in order to avoid uncontrolled population growth and lack of parental support that lead to growth deviations, countries around the world have reached a consensus that they must The one-child policy is implemented, and each couple can only apply for a maximum of two children. Of course, special circumstances can be adjusted. For example, there are still many families who will not have children in their entire lives. In this way, the fertility quota can be evenly allocated to some special families.Because Ling Zihan's situation is very special, he can have as many children as he wants, and everyone can't ask for it. Therefore, he was approved as soon as he applied, and he didn't need to queue up at the hospital. He immediately entered the pregnancy stage, and he was closely watched all the time. Everyone knew it was a boy, and they were looking forward to his birth.However, now that the child is about to be born, there is a big event suddenly struck by Apophis, and Ling Zihan's illness also dilutes the joy in Wei Tianyu's heart.

This kid came at a really bad time.

When Tong Yue left the room, Wei Tianyu hurried over and said with concern: "You should eat something, is there anything you particularly want to eat?"

"I just want to drink some porridge." Ling Zihan held his hand and asked with a smile, "When are you leaving?"

"Tomorrow." Wei Tianyu hesitated, "Or, I'll go two days later."

Ling Zihan shook his head slightly, "Now we have to race against time, don't worry about me, go at ease."

Wei Tianyu clenched his hand tightly and let out a long sigh.He was really worried and wanted to be with Ling Zihan, but the work he was responsible for was also very important, and it was related to the life and death of hundreds of millions of people.Although astronomers believe that Apophis will take at least [-] months to hit the earth after observation and calculation, but that kind of speculation is based on natural operation, and it is difficult to say if it is artificially promoted.The great retreat could be carried out at any time, so the work he was responsible for could not be delayed for a moment, and he had to leave tomorrow.

Ling Zihan shook his hand comfortingly, and said with a slight smile, "Don't worry about family matters, go to work at ease. Well, I'm really a little hungry."

Wei Tianyu immediately came back to his senses, "I'll get it for you right away." He carefully put Ling Zihan's hand under the quilt, got up and went to the kitchen.

Nowadays, the degree of modernization is getting higher and higher. Many high-risk jobs are done by robots or automated equipment. People live more and more leisurely. Although there are still poor people, the mainstream of society is still rich and peaceful.Because of this, engineering is already one of the most important professions of this era, and Wei Tianyu stands at the top of the technology industry.

Because Ling Zihan secretly controlled the channel of news transmission, and Wei Tianyu has always acted in a low-key manner, so his name is not known to the world, and his name is not among the academicians of the two academies, but within a certain range, the leaders all know He was a technical genius, a computer genius.Over the years, his inventions and creations have covered various fields such as production, life, science and technology, military affairs, and espionage. They are almost comparable to those of Nobel 200 years ago. Various patent certificates and award certificates are filled with cabinets and distributed in the world. The manufacturer has to pay him the royalties of various patents every year, and at the same time earns a lot of money.

Once, Ling Yi drank two more glasses at home, and couldn't help saying: "If I knew this, I shouldn't have let Tianyu do this business. He should have been allowed to engage in technology back then. Now he must be famous all over the world and rich like an enemy. In the future, a Wei Tianyu Award can be established to complement the Nobel Prize."

Wei Tianyu smiled unhurriedly: "Then I won't be able to meet Zihan."

Ling Zihan put his hand on his shoulder and squeezed it affectionately.

Wei Tianyu can definitely be called talented and talented. He often sits in the courtyard with a few parts during the limited holidays and fiddles with them, and he will come up with new ideas.Ever since Ling Zihan's condition improved, and when he gradually became in love with him, his inspirations have been endless, and he has invented countless things.Looking back on his first half of life, he felt very satisfied. If time was turned back and he was told to change his life path, and told him that he could become famous and rich, he would not take that glorious path.He would still drag his suitcases out of the Capital Airport to meet 12-year-old Ling Zihan.He is extremely grateful that the choice he made back then allowed him to have such a happy life.

Today, Aphipos is rushing towards the earth, and the shelter of human beings is being built, and as a technological authority, he is naturally an important person involved.Although he was worried about Ling Zihan's health, he still rushed to Nanyuan Airport on time and boarded the special plane to the north.

Besides him, there were Fang Cheng and several other technical experts on the plane.All of them were dressed in plain clothes with solemn expressions. As soon as they boarded the plane, they entered the meeting room, turned on their computers, and discussed work plans.

The shelter is built deep underground. There are nine underground cities in China, all of which have been carefully surveyed in advance to avoid geologically active areas.All the engineering troops of the army were on the front line, and the state-owned enterprises China Railway, China Construction, and the Bridge Engineering Bureau also mobilized all their engineering teams to start work day and night according to the arrangement of the central government.Not only that, South Asian countries and several small island countries in the ocean have requested that they funded the construction of two underground cities in northern India and Nepal near the Himalayas to settle their citizens.

In fact, even ordinary people now realize that money is really not of much use.

All the stock markets in the world have already fallen to the limit. It is difficult to determine whether there will be a stock exchange in the dungeon in the future.The governments of various countries have hoarded a large amount of daily necessities, but to feed so many people, the rationing system must be implemented in the first few years, and it is not necessarily possible to buy more things if you have money.All real estate such as houses will be turned into ashes when Apophis smashes them down. Even if the cash is exchanged for precious metals such as gold, it will be of little use.When it comes to the dungeon, the most useful things are probably the real things, such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, etc., but how much can be carried by manpower?Cars and the like are definitely not allowed to drive into the dungeon, the residents are too crowded, so how can there be room for these useless things?

That's how chaos comes.People are panicking. Although the government has said that the dungeon is being built to protect everyone's safety, they have no idea what their future life will be like, and experts in the fields of politics, economy, and society cannot tell.They set up various research groups and stepped up research.

Of course, more civilians do not have too high requirements, as long as they can ensure the safety of themselves and their families.Lots of people all over the world are selling off all their real estate and heading home.The governments of various countries have repeatedly emphasized that this time all human beings will be evacuated underground and will stay for a long time, ranging from 50 years to 200 to [-] years, so they all want to be with their families.Those relatives and friends who broke up because of competing for family property or interests mostly let go of their previous suspicions and agreed to live together as much as possible after arriving in the dungeon. If life is boring, everyone gathers to play mahjong and drink tea, and life will be easier.

Most people imagine life in the dungeon as a long night, perhaps with dim lighting, but no modern entertainment facilities, food, vegetables and water are limited, and people can only move a chair a day Sit at the door, chat with neighbors, and live like people did more than 100 years ago.

But what Wei Tianyu and the others have to do is to make the underground city more modern than the metropolis on the ground.

More than an hour later, the plane landed at a small temporary airport.They were picked up by an off-road vehicle powered by electricity and galloped on the Mongolian plateau for half an hour before sending them to a fortress-like house.

Wei Tianyu and the others got out of the car one by one, and walked into the house led by a major officer.The room was empty except for a huge elevator.They stepped in, the elevator doors closed, and they descended at high speed.

Soon, a huge underground city appeared in front of them.

This city is called Jiugong City, which is the closest to Beijing. It was built under the Mongolian plateau. The design standard can theoretically accommodate a population of 5000 million, and only [-] million people are planned to be evacuated here.This place will still be the center of East Asia, and all major ministries and commissions will be withdrawn here, and even ordinary civilians will have to go through audits to ensure that terrorists will not be mixed in.

Since the beginning of this century, both East and West have built living spaces on the seabed, sent volunteers to live there for a long time, to measure changes in psychological and physiological states, and whether the life cycle system can ensure that human beings can live in a closed space with limited resources. stay alive.The integration of these scientific research achievements and the construction technology of the space station are all used in the construction of the dungeon.

Wei Tianyu came here this time to guide them in installing life cycle systems, network systems, and internal and external defense systems. He is an authority in these aspects.The whole city is divided into nine floors, including production areas, living areas, animal and plant areas, military defense areas, etc. Each area uses a large number of his patents, and he also needs to test and accept them.His burden is heavy, in a sense, no one can replace it.

Even if the end is approaching, Wei Tianyu will not change his low-key style, so the leader of this expert team is Fang Cheng.

They got off the elevator, walked into the conference room along the rocky passage, and sat down at the circular conference table.Fang Cheng turned on the big screen on the wall, looked at the huge meteorite flying in space, and said seriously: "Everyone, from today, we only have 180 days to complete the work, and we must do it to perfection. Half a year later , the retreat plan was implemented, and Jiugong City was the first to be activated."
