Doomsday Bunker Upgrade Chapter 39: The ashes after the catastrophe
Although Chen Xin should turn on the car lights for safety to illuminate the road ahead, but considering that turning on the car lights will expose his presence, in order to reduce some unnecessary troubles, Chen Xin still discredited driving the car , Did not turn on the lights.
Fortunately, although the sky is very dark, there is still a little bit of sky light, so that Chen Xin can see the road in front of him clearly.
Chen Xin lives in the suburbs, and places like the imperial capital and the magic capital are called the urban-rural junction. However, the city where Chen Xin is located is only a small southern city, which is not as prosperous as the imperial capital and the magic capital. It is a barren mountain and a small village with no people living in it. There are only a few farmers living here.
Chen Xin also showed that the place was clean and it was convenient for him to write a book before he moved out of the city and lived here.
Although the place is remote, in recent years, due to the construction of the Yan State University, the site was chosen nearby when the high-speed rail station was built. However, the roads in this area have been well repaired, so Chen Xin did not worry about what was on the road after he drove out. Obstacles, just drive directly along the road to the city.
The road leading to the city is very empty, and it does not look like the streets full of abandoned cars in the European and American doomsday movies.
In fact, this is what the doomsday should look like, because humans learned about the meteorite impact three months in advance, and the country also evacuated more than 80% of the country’s population into shelters in advance. Under such circumstances, Where are the abandoned cars on the street that can block the road?
If there are really abandoned cars blocking the road, there is only one possibility, it is a roadblock or a trap set by others.
There are no obstacles on the road leading to the city. Before the disaster, every household had stopped going out. Naturally, there were no vehicles on the road, and some were just a layer of gray.
The wheel ran over, leaving two ruts. Chen Xin looked at the gray and white covering the surface of everything, and his heart became very heavy.
Because these are the ashes left after the fire burned.
The road leading to the urban area originally had to cross a river. Although the surrounding area cannot be regarded as beautiful, but it is also regarded as green mountains and green water. After all, the city's environmental protection and greening have always been done well, and it was once selected as a green city.
But now that's all gone.
The green hills on both sides of the road have now become black, covered with gray ashes, looking like snow falling on a pile of black coal, some plant remnants that have not been completely burned are like Twisted, spooky ghosts that are not only ugly but frightening.
The river that originally separated the city from the outskirts has now dried up and turned into a huge gully. Perhaps because of the presence of water in Zeng Jin, the river bottom showed an ugly black and yellow color, just like World of Warcraft It's the same as the famous death mark.
Chen Xin still has a deep memory of this river, because his family lived near this river in the past, he used to enjoy the cool here in summer evenings, and he also asked girls to take a walk here.
It’s just that now this river that was once built by the city government into a park along the river can no longer see its original appearance. The wooden walkway that the city government spent a lot of money to build is burnt only a few pieces of cement. pile.
Facing this kind of scenery, Chen Xin couldn't help slowing down, looking at everything in front of him with some sadness.
The water in the river evaporates to dryness, so how much scenery can be left by the river? Although Chen Xin didn't get out of the car, he could guess that under a fire of this scale, even the remaining cement piles and the stones built up on the river bank would have been burned to a disastrous appearance.
Fortunately, the bridge is still stable and has not been affected by the fire, otherwise he would really not dare to enter the city from this road.
Entering the city, the scenery in the city is not much better than outside the city.
The former dense green belts on both sides of the road now only have cemented flower beds and tree stumps that have not been completely burnt. Although the buildings on the roadside are not damaged, the original colorful signs burned everything. There is no more, that is really even the iron frame has been burned.
Several of the stores that Chen Xin frequented in the past even melted the rolling shutters at the entrance, turning them into a blackened pool.
Looking at all this, Chen Xin really felt the end of the world, and he felt a sense of trance like a world away.
The once prosperous streets, lively squares, tall buildings, colorful neon, everything that was once familiar and accustomed to be so fragile in the face of a disaster.
is like a piece of exquisite porcelain, it looks so beautiful and beautiful, but once it is pushed to the ground, it is a piece of debris.
In the past, Chen Xin had seen a lot of photos and documentaries about war-torn areas when he was looking for materials to write novels. There is no real sense that those once prosperous places have become dilapidated after the war, but now he is real and personally aware of it. How precious is everything that I once possessed and taken for granted~IndoMTL.com~ But everything can’t come back anymore. Human beings want to rebuild the prosperous streets and lanes of the past, make the square lively again, and re-decorate the city with colorful neon lights. It will take at least a generation to rebuild everything that was destroyed by the disaster and rebuild our homeland.
And it’s still the end of the day that the environment does not change, but unfortunately, in the following years, the temperature will only become colder and colder. Before the haze and darkness in the sky dissipate, the whole The world will be a huge ice cellar, freezing everything with freezing cold.
It is extremely difficult for human beings to rebuild their homes.
The cement may have turned into ice lumps before being stirred. The frozen ground is harder than iron and can’t be digged. All surface water sources have also been frozen...
Before this thick haze that completely covered the sun in the sky dissipated, the earth was a huge ice cave. Whether human civilization can survive this catastrophe is still unknown.
Rebuild the homeland...I am afraid it will really become something that you will never see in your lifetime.
But this has nothing to do with Chen Xin now. Although the disaster has come, the real end has not yet come. It can be said that it is the last remaining warmth before the cold night.
For the surviving humans, what should be done now is to step up the collection of supplies, and at the same time strengthen the shelter while the weather has not completely cooled down, and improve their chances of survival in the coming extreme cold as much as possible.
Of course, for Chen Xin, who already has a safe and stable refuge and has also found a survival system, how to survive is no longer his first priority.
How to make yourself live longer and better is what Chen Xin needs to consider.
