"What happened at that time?" Shen Li didn't dare to hang up the phone. The communications department was confirming the location of the signal. Before the rescue was successful, he had to contact the other party. Shen Li was not very good at talking, so he could only maintain the dialogue in this way. , seems less embarrassing.

"The Oceanic Bureau is set up by the sea, which is much higher than the sea level. Normally, it will not be affected by wind and waves, but the rain that day was too heavy, and all the water from the high places rushed in, so we were all caught by the wind. Rush away, and when I wake up, I find myself on a strange island."

Shen Li nodded, "Is there anything else you noticed?"

"Yes." The other party said, "The sun is so bright."

Shen Li raised his eyebrows slightly, "The sun?"

"Practically speaking, the size of the sun is fixed, and there will be subtle differences with the seasons and morning and evening changes. If you are a biologist and study geography, you should know what I mean, but that morning, we found that the sun was bigger than usual. At least twice as big, it is not a visual deviation, because not only me, everyone present has noticed this change."

"Have you analyzed the reason? Has this happened again?"

"No, the reason cannot be analyzed. The sun returned to its original state the next day. We tried to find the reason why we appeared on this small island, but at that time almost all of us were in a coma from choking on water and had no consciousness at all. Some people died because of untimely rescue from drowning, but ...Even if we are lucky, why most of us rushed to this small island has always been an unsolved mystery."

Shen Li nodded, and he recorded everything he heard in his notebook, "We can talk about this matter later, the most important thing now is that you are still alive."

"We think the same way. Don't look at us now, but we are very optimistic." The man laughed.

At this moment, a call came in. Shen Li listened to the words over there. In fact, the communication department could take over the communication at any time, but they considered the conversation between Shen Li and the other party, and Shen Li had special meaning to them for the time being, so they temporarily I hope Shen Li can keep in touch with them until the rescue is successful.

Shen Li knew what was at stake, even if he didn't like to talk, he had to keep talking.

After communicating with the Communications Department, Shen Li said, "The Communications Department has confirmed your location, and the Special Bureau has sent a rescue team. If you persist, you will be back soon."

"Okay!" The other party was very excited, and Shen Li also heard the excited voices of other people behind him.

After the excitement subsided, the other party sniffled, "May I ask where we are now?"

"The address of the Ocean Bureau is about 15 nautical miles to the east."

"This location has been investigated by the Marine Bureau. I don't remember that there is a small island."

"There is nothing wrong with the location, the only one that is wrong is this small island." Shen Li said.

There was silence on the other side, and he finally spoke after about ten seconds, "...so this small island is bare, with nothing but stones. We judged at first that it was floods and typhoons that knocked down all the creatures on the island. But in fact, it has just appeared, so there is no trace of any biological existence?"

"It's not completely sure yet." Shen Li said hastily: "At that time, the accompanying experts will conduct an appraisal. This is just my personal guess."

The other side was still silent, and after a while he continued to speak, "No, this is a very important matter, if what you said is true, this small island really appeared out of thin air, does that mean that after the creature Geography is changing too?"

"Crust, peaks, rifts, will these all start to change? Will earthquakes come? Will volcanoes erupt? Will a mountain suddenly grow out of nowhere?"

"This is very important! This must be clarified!"

While speaking, Shen Li heard him put down the phone, and heard him yelling at the people behind him, asking everyone to conduct a short investigation immediately to determine if this is a mountain. The people behind him were all paying attention to the conversation between him and Shen Li, and what he said just now I heard it, and there was a response soon.

In this way, these people spontaneously worked overtime before the rescue came, and began to use basic methods to do temporary testing.

Shen Li told the communication department about the current situation. The communication department expressed understanding and immediately applied to the scientific research bureau to add a geographer to the rescue list. The scientific research bureau was also paying attention to this matter, and agreed quickly. Got on the plane within.

"The matching geographers will go there together." Shen Li reminded them, "Take a good rest for the time being."

"Thank you very much." The person on the other side breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm sorry that I seem to be a little nervous, but this matter is really important. If geographical changes really occur, the world will become completely different from before. If only biological mutations occur now We can also deduce something from the previous map, once there is a geographical change, we will directly fall into the trapped area."

"Changes in the seabed are even more terrifying. A rise in sea level means a decrease in land area. This impact is more terrifying than biological variation."

"I understand, I understand." Shen Li comforted him, "Let's wait for the professionals to take a look."

Just chatting casually like this, waiting until Shen Li waited until there was a slight voice on the other side, and the other side excitedly told him that the rescue had arrived, and waited until everyone boarded the rescue boat, then Shen Li hung up the phone in peace of mind, waiting for the ocean bureau people return.

Soon, Shen Li got the news that the survivors had gone ashore.

Waiting for people to come in the middle of the night is a very boring thing, and he is still a little sleepy, but he has an agreement with those people to wait for them to come to thank him, so thinking that Shen Li did not go back, and has been waiting in the headquarters. When his colleagues came over, Shen Li also saw several geographers with ugly expressions and hurrying.

It was already four o'clock in the morning when the people from the Oceanic Bureau came, and the sun was about to rise. When Shen Li saw those people waving to him, he smiled and stretched out his hand to wave.

At this moment, a flame lit up in the sky.

Shen Li subconsciously shifted his gaze to the sky, and the red fire slid into his eyes. Everyone present was startled by the sudden light, and everyone turned their heads to look.

At the place where the sun rises, a bird flies out from the sea level, with flame wings fluttering, it looks like a peacock with a big and beautiful tail, its whole body is the color of flames, and it emits a crisp sound The sound of birds chirping, directly plunged into the clouds and disappeared.

"……what is that?"

"bird?"

"Three-legged Golden Crow?"

"What three-legged golden crow, this is not a novel of the wild!"

Shen Li stared at the sky that had been restored to its original state, and remembered the piece of paper left by Cao Yutian, the bird with flames at the end of the paper.

Is this it?

……

Theme: "Did you see it last night?"A big red bird flew out suddenly, its body was covered in fire, it was really bright. "

[The host suffered from insomnia at night, surfing the Internet with dark circles under his eyes, and happened to see that bird flying over. 】

[I saw it, but I didn't have time to record it because the flight was too fast and the time was too short. 】

[If the recording should be available in the Special Bureau?After all they have road and sky surveillance. 】

【Really?I did not see anything. 】

[Me neither, what time is it?I also stayed up late yesterday, why don’t I know anything? 】

[At about four o'clock in the morning, I took a special look at the time, and I swore that I was absolutely not lying, if I did, I would be infected with a genetic disease. 】

[Grass, the poisonous oath upstairs is absolutely true, I believe it. 】

【That bird is so beautiful, like a phoenix. 】

[Fire Phoenix? 】

[In this day and age, it is not impossible for someone to return to his ancestors and become a phoenix? 】

[What's wrong?Legendary creatures started to appear? 】

[I have to say that the legendary creature is actually just a bird with fire on its body. A bird with fire feathers doesn't seem so strange? 】

【Huh?In this way, they are creatures of the same gear? 】

There are also many speculations about what this creature is from the Scientific Research Bureau, but it appeared for a while without leaving clear video data, so it is really hard to guess, and Shen Li's description as a professional is also difficult to judge, after all This is a bird with flames on its body.

It is obviously unrealistic to look for it, and in the end it can only be kept under the file and deal with it later when there is a chance.

Now we are mainly concerned about the problems of the Oceanic Bureau and the possible geographical changes.

"We found that the small island is a mountain." The geographer who was sent said: "The geography of the ocean is actually the same as the ground. There are mountains and basin bottoms, but because the altitude is too low, they are buried by sea water. The small island It is a seamount, and the mountain suddenly drills out of the sea and is higher than the sea level to form a new island."

"Wait a minute, do you mean that the island may have suddenly increased in height in a short period of time?"

"That's right, according to the records of the Oceanic Bureau, the island didn't exist at least a month ago, and even the Oceanic Bureau didn't find this mountain, which means it's very low." The geographer concluded, "Within a month The altitude increased to pop out, and you should understand what that means."

"I suggest to re-do a geographic survey of the area we have controlled to judge the changes." The geographer said: "This is very necessary! The changes in the ocean are so large, and the changes on the ground are not expected to be small."

The decision maker nodded, "Okay, I will release the task immediately."

The people present nodded, and they all started to prepare. Just when the meeting was about to end and they were about to leave, a person broke into the conference room.

"It's not good." The person who came was the staff of the Meteorological Department, "The cold wave is coming!"

"What?!" The geographer stood up, "Cold wave? What kind of cold wave is it?"

"The lowest temperature in the south can reach minus [-] degrees, and the temperature in the north may drop below minus [-] degrees!" The staff looked ugly, "Our heat preservation work is not over yet, and it is too late to arrange all the heat preservation equipment in three days, and It only takes two days for the cold wave to come over."

Even the Meteorological Bureau did not expect that the low temperature mentioned by Shen Li had really come. They had been guiding the heat preservation work, but half of the people in the department thought it was unnecessary.

Because so far no possibility of any temperature reduction has been found.

Until today, they checked the weather and temperature as usual, but suddenly found a wind that had not appeared before. This wind hit from a distant American continent. After checking, their faces were pale, because it was a sign of extreme low temperature. The low temperature will hit in two days at the latest.

Fifty degrees below zero, this is a temperature that can quickly freeze to death outdoors.

This is an ultra-low temperature that cannot be handled by human body temperature or ordinary thermal equipment.

"There is no way to keep warm?" The decision maker stared at him, "Didn't you prepare the heat preservation equipment before? Why haven't you dealt with it until now?"

"Because the temperature disparity is too great, our current insulation measures cannot cope with such temperatures, and it is too late to reinforce."

The decision-maker began to think, and he spoke after a while, "Now start to transfer the population, strengthen and upgrade some safety zones, and then let everyone enter these safety zones. It doesn't matter if you squeeze a little, as long as you can survive it, you can judge this cold wave. How long will it last?"

"It will take half a month at the earliest."

"Half a month." The decision maker nodded, "Don't start the geographic survey, there is not enough time, first deal with the cold wave problem, everyone prepare food and drinking water, all move!"

"This will be our harshest winter, don't lose the chain!"

Thus, the mighty migration began. Experts selected a few places that were more suitable for reinforcement and heat preservation and began to refit them on the spot. The Special Bureau is bringing people from various regions to these places. They are very anxious and hurry to go there. go forward.

Area D is also an evacuation area. Area D itself is a special area, but it is not enough to cope with such a temperature. They also do not have the energy to upgrade Area D alone, so they can only evacuate together in the end.

Shen Li and Lin Qiming were in the same car. Shen Li looked through the window and saw a lot of cars. Countless people were queuing up to get on the car, and the carloads of people were taken to the safety zone that had been processed.

This is the most people Shen Li has seen after the fog.

He hugged the fish tank, and the little red fish seemed to sense that the current atmosphere was not right, so he behaved extraordinarily well-behaved, and did not feed or make trouble when the time came.

"There are so many people." Lin Qiming seldom saw this scene, he stared outside, "I didn't expect this cold wave to come so suddenly, and a strange bird appeared in the early morning, because there was fire on the wings, I wondered if it was The temperature will rise in the future.”

"I didn't expect it to be lower."

Shen Li looked at the people outside, and then spoke after a while, "Qi Ming, did you think of anything when you saw this?"

"What?" Lin Qiming looked at Shen Li, "Brother?"

"Biological migration." Shen Li murmured, "Some creatures will migrate to live in another place at a certain time. This migration is generally related to seasons or reproduction. Similarly, this migration will allow some ferocious beasts to have enough food. source, which is also part of the ecosystem.”

"Yeah." Lin Qiming nodded, "Brother, do you mean that we are like biological migration?"

"No, I just feel: People are all gathered together." Shen Li murmured, "It's easier to destroy people who gather together, right?"

Lin Qiming was stuck, he almost looked at Shen Li with horror in his eyes, and after a while he turned his head to look forward.

...Well, let's not ask Shen Li why he thinks this way.

I always feel that the answer I get will be more terrifying.

Lin Qiming didn't ask any more questions, and Shen Li didn't continue talking. He sat on the car seat and turned on his mobile phone to check the Internet. Sure enough, the Internet was in a panic because of the cold wave.

[Why the sudden low temperature?What the hell is going on this year? There are natural disasters everywhere. 】

[I'm more worried... Everyone is concentrated in a few areas, does it mean that plague patients and genetic diseases are all there? 】

[They should be isolated in a separate area, right? 】

[It didn't say above, and we don't know, I'm so scared now, how could this happen, woo woo. 】

[An uncle of mine who can tell fortunes said: Human beings will not survive this year. 】

[Grass, don’t come upstairs to spread anxiety, the upper levels are coping well, we will definitely survive. 】

[The cold wave will last for half a month, what if it doesn't stop for half a month? 】

[Believe in the country, believe in ourselves, we have been here for ten years, why are we still afraid of a little cold wave? !Give me confidence! 】

【I'm crying, I'm sorry, but I really want to cry, why are we so unlucky. 】

[Everyone is going through the same thing, relax, it will pass. 】

Shen Li sighed, he closed the post, then opened the address book, he pulled a certain number out of the blacklist, after pulling out the blacklist, he tried to send a period, the period was posted normally, Shen Li also knew that he had been blocked Released the blacklist.

Because he sent a period in the past, the other side also returned a period to him.

【Are you still outside?The cold wave is coming. 】

This kind of low-end temperature is not something you can just find a place to hide in. Cao Yutian is still a person anyway. Humans are warm-blooded animals, and it is very easy to be frozen to death and heat to death. Plants buried in the soil are of course difficult to survive.

【Know. ] The other side replied quickly, 【I'm not good enough to be able to move around freely at minus 70, so I should look for you. 】

Shen Li was silent, and then replied, 【Do you still remember that you are wanted? 】

[Relax, I have a solution. 】

I don't know what his solution is, but since he said so, Shen Li has nothing to worry about, so he continued to blackmail Cao Yutian, hugged his fish and leaned on the car seat to wait for the destination.

According to the terrain and experts' suggestions, five safe areas were selected for thermal insulation upgrade. These five areas are A5, 8, and 12 areas, B3 and 9 areas, and A5 area is the nearest to D area.

When they came to the A5 area, many people had already arrived. Most of them were holding some underwear and waiting in line to be arranged. Everyone was worried and a little bit helpless. The Special Bureau dispatched to maintain order and assigned temporary living space.

"How should I put it? These disasters really killed a lot of people, but at this time the allocation of space became feasible." Lin Qiming couldn't taunt or feel sad, "During this cold wave, this is our last Line of defense."

Shen Li looked at them, he nodded, "Yeah."

"I heard another thing." Lin Qiming and Shen Li followed the assignees upstairs, "We were assigned a building in District D, yes, all of us, so it is estimated that there will be many people living in one room. People, this space is not enough, Li Qing told me: If the space is really not enough, they may consider releasing some genetic variants."

Shen Li was stunned, "Release?"

"Yes, release."

It sounds nice to call it release, but who knows that this release is to let them fend for themselves in this cold wave. The genetic variants have long since lost human signs, and there is no cure for them. The mutants are contained in isolation, trying to find a cure and get them back.

Giving up on them at this time may really be impossible.

"Brother?" Lin Qiming looked at him, "We want to protect those who haven't mutated, and protect these ordinary people who haven't changed yet."

"En." Shen Li nodded, "I understand."

However, understanding or not and the human heart are always two different things. The reason why people are human is that the human heart can feel pity and sympathy. In this terrible era, human beings are always faced with difficult choices, as if choosing Pity and abandonment, that's why Shen Li is so conspicuous.

He hasn't given up his compassion for those who are left just because he wants to protect the rest.

He makes a choice, understands the choice, but still sympathizes.

When we came to the assigned room, it was very empty and there was not much stuff. Some colleagues brought some portable instruments. Although most of them knew that they couldn’t do any experiments in such a cold wave, Shen Li put the small fish tank on the window sill and looked through it. Looking at the sky through the glass.

He thought: Where did that bird fly to?

There are flames on the bird's wings, and the flames are so bright, it is estimated that it will be very warm, but it is difficult for humans to move in the cold wave, so of course there is no way to go out to find this bird.

I can only hope that this cold wave will pass quickly and give them a little space.

The transfer of the people continued until the early morning of the next day. After the last person was delivered to the designated place, the Special Bureau finally breathed a sigh of relief. They were terribly tired, but they still had to maintain order. In the end, they could only arrange activities in shifts. Shen Li couldn't sleep. He sat by the windowsill, his golden eyes staring at the sky.

At two o'clock in the morning, the first snowflakes fell.

There are still many people who have not fallen asleep. Most of them have noticed the snow. They lie on the glass and watch the snowflakes falling outside the window. But after 5 minutes, the snow turns into a blizzard, and the goose feather snow falls in one fell swoop. In a few minutes, the whole land will be covered.

There was a vast expanse of whiteness everywhere, and the snow was still continuing, as if it was going to fall for a long time.

"Do you feel a little cold?"

"Of course it will be cold when the cold wave comes. Didn't the Special Bureau inform us to bring thick clothes before? They even sent us warm suits."

"Do you want to wear it now? The temperature drops so fast."

"I think it can be tolerated, and I will wear it later."

"Hey, look, is the water in the sink freezing?"

"Fuck, isn't this indoors?"

"...the faucet is out of water, is the water pipe frozen?"

"Everyone, don't panic, the cold wave is coming, the temperature will get lower and lower, and soon the insulation system will be turned on, and the heating will come in." An expert quickly came out to appease, "Hot water will be distributed to everyone, and there will be hot water. food!"

Shen Li moved the fish tank away from the window, and when he felt that the fish tank was about to freeze, a warm breath gushed out, it was because the heat preservation system had taken effect.

"The temperature in the area will remain above zero. As long as the insulation system is not broken, we will be fine." Lin Qiming said: "I hope we can get through this cold wave safely."

Shen Li heard the words and looked out the window, the snow was getting bigger and bigger, puff puff puff, some of them hit the window directly, making an indescribable sound, because the temperature difference between inside and outside was too big, water droplets appeared on the window, fortunately here The glass is uniformly reinforced so that it will not be cracked by freezing.

Hope you can really get through this cold wave.
