Natural Disaster Apocalypse

There are eight people in a row in the car with soft seats, the aisle in the middle, four seats on the left and right, the seats are quite spacious, two pairs of seats, seven of them just in a row, and a single young man was arranged .

Mu Nan and the Song Jia brothers sat opposite each other, and Xu Ming and Jian Chu were together. The single young man didn't know whether he was a social worker, unable to communicate with others, or a workaholic. After sitting down, he took out his computer and kept chatting. beat.

Mu Nan asked Qin Huai in a low voice, "Are you a colleague?" He felt that this kind of person holding a computer and typing characters he couldn't understand should be engaged in the same job as his brother.

Qin Huai shook his head: "I am the only one who accepted the dispatch in the department I am in this time."

Originally there were two of them, but the other one was a bit older and not in good health. After the final comprehensive assessment, he might not be able to adapt to the environment in the Tibetan area, so he was temporarily left behind.

According to his observation, the current situation should be to leave in batches, to mobilize the talents that are lacking in various aspects from all over the country, such as technical workers, construction workers, scientific research and medical treatment, etc., and gather the best batch first to create a A refuge city suitable for human survival, and then slowly mobilize the follow-up personnel gradually, while building the refuge city, an orderly evacuation work is carried out.

Otherwise, there should be hundreds of millions of people in the whole country. If the news of the city of refuge spreads, everyone will flock to the city of refuge to avoid the disaster. Not to mention how far the city of refuge will be able to accommodate so many people. Just on the way to the city of refuge, it might be a purgatory on earth.

It can be predicted without thinking that in such a situation, the order will be lost along the way, the bottom line of human beings will be lost, scrambling and plundering, and maybe some people will take advantage of it to split up. Then in the face of various natural disasters these years, what the government has done The efforts made were almost wiped out in an instant, and all the painstaking efforts were in vain. Then the existing survivors, I am afraid that there will be nearly half of the casualties.

Once the order is broken, it will not be easy to re-condense the country.

Another point is that if there is a nationwide chaos, it will be a huge waste of resources. Now their living environment can no longer bear the slightest waste, so it is best to transfer them gradually and in batches way.

I just don't know how many batches they are now, and how far the city of refuge has been perfected.

Maybe it's because the people transferred this time are people with some achievements in certain fields. Although high-level intellectuals can't fully represent quality, most of the high-level intellectuals are of good quality. It is quiet, and if you need to change seats, you can communicate with others politely and in a low voice.

The most important thing is that everyone's living environment should be good. At least Mu Nan didn't see anyone who was so dirty that he didn't take a shower for more than ten days. Although he was sweating profusely after walking around because of the heat, the smell wasn't too bad. Smell, you can cover it with a mask, and when you enter the car, it will be air-conditioned and ventilated, and you can even take off the mask.

Mu Nan leaned on the small table in front of him and sighed softly: "It seems that everyone should be able to get along well along the way, and I haven't met some excellent people."

Song Jia also rested her head on the table with one hand and said: "Sure enough, people with high education and ability are different. Look at this quality."

If those people who took refuge in the previous flood and sandstorm, I am afraid that they would have made a lot of noise because of a vent or a seat by the window. How could it be like this, because the people in front have a lot of luggage and slightly blocked the way, and the people behind are patient. Don't wait.

Mu Nan noticed Qin Huai chuckled, and hurried over: "What are you laughing at?"

Qin Huai took out a wet towel and wiped off the sweat on his forehead and the sticky heat on his face, and said: "This kind of person is only suitable for casual encounters. After a long time, you won't like it."

Mu Nan was puzzled: "Why?" People who are polite and decent are more comfortable than some street thugs.

Qin Huai didn't tell him why, but soon Mu Nan knew why, because those people were so indifferent.

Just like the young man sitting next to Xu Ming, he hadn't spoken since he got in the car, he was either typing on the computer, or closing his eyes with headphones on, but some people just don't like to communicate with strangers, Mu Nan himself Such a character, if he were alone, he would definitely ignore everyone when he put on the earphones, so he didn't think there was anything wrong.

What made him feel indifferent was that the man sitting in the seat in front of them, when a child ran over and stumbled, he glanced indifferently. After his face was bloody, his first reaction was not to go to see the child, but to quickly pick up the bag on the ground to check whether it was dirty.

Until the child's mother ran over to take the child away to treat the wound, and the staff in the car came to clean up the blood on the ground, the man didn't change his posture during the whole process except for reaching for a bag.

And the people next to him, as if nothing happened, didn't pay attention, didn't talk about it, either closed their eyes and rested, or focused on what they were doing.

Mu Nan originally thought that the high-quality quiet atmosphere changed in an instant, and even felt that such quietness was a little scary.

Song Jia, who was sitting opposite him, naturally also noticed the movement there, but because no one was speaking in the car, only the crying of a child came from a distance, it didn't feel good for them to talk loudly, so she couldn't help but lower her voice The voice said: "Is there a feeling that this car is full of robots without emotions?"

Mu Nan nodded with deep sympathy: "Maybe this is the difference between a genius and an ordinary person?"

Song Jia shrugged. Anyway, he doesn't understand the world of geniuses. Since he was in kindergarten, he has been a scumbag who has caused headaches for teachers. If he hadn't been riding the east wind of Qinhuai River, he really wouldn't have been able to get in touch with people of this genius level.

But it's really like what Qin Huai said, short contact with this indifferent but decent manner makes people feel quite comfortable, but after a long time, it's not that kind of thing.

Thinking of this, Song Jia couldn't help but cast a careful glance at Qin Huai who was also looking at the computer. If Qin Huai didn't have Mu Nan by his side, Song Jia felt that Qin Huai should also be such a naturally indifferent person.

Probably because he noticed his gaze, Qin Huai was about to look up, but in the next second, Mu Nan, who had been sitting next to him, diverted his attention. The originally expressionless face was almost ashamed when he looked at Mu Nan. Instinctively brought a gentle smile.

Song Jia looked at it, and then turned her gaze to Jian Chu who was across the aisle from them. Over there, Jian Chu and Yu Zibai were holding their mobile phones head to head. Then he narrowed his eyes with a smile.

I don't know if it's because the rotten smell of love is too strong, or this kind of love that is treated uniquely and specially is too beautiful, Song Jia feels that he doesn't seem so straight anymore, at least the moment he saw Qin Huai smiling at Mu Nan just now, he thought What's more, if you can find such a deep love, it's okay if the object is a same-sex person.

Realizing that her thoughts were not right, Song Jia poked his elder brother with her arm, and whispered: "Brother, if I find you a brother-in-law, what will happen to you?"

Wu Zheng glanced at him, with a hint of sarcasm towards single dogs in a calm expression: "You can find it first and then talk about it."

Song Jia rolled her eyes, they are all single, who do they look down on.

After sitting in the carriage for almost two hours, it was estimated that the carriage behind was loading goods, and only after the cargo boxes were full did the departure announcement sound.

Mu Nan had already slept on the table, but the table was relatively hard, and his sleeping posture was not right. His shoulders were sore when he sat up. Qin Huai rubbed him and said, "Take it off later." I took off my shoes and lay down on my lap to sleep, it’s too tiring to lie on my stomach like this.”

Mu Nan rubbed the numb area on his face: "How long are we going to stay in this car?"

Wu Zheng, who was on the opposite side, said, "Thirty hours to start."

Hearing this number, Mu Nan became even more paralyzed: "It's been so long. We went to the capital before, and it took us just over three hours. Even if the conditions are not good now, it should take about three or five times the time. How can this be doubled?" Just double it ten times, it won’t take so long to drive there, right?”

Qin Huai: "Driving consumes more energy. There are so many people, how many cars are needed, and you can only drive at night, and you have to find a place to hide from the sun during the day. The underground train takes so long because it is connected to the subway track. This should be the first one above. Plan to rebuild the subway, but the track will be dual-purpose. Each province and city will start construction according to the plan, and then open up the connection. There will be internal regional traffic and external inter-provincial connections. When the bullet train track is connected, every province and city will be able to There is a direct train to the capital, and then enter Tibet from the capital."

This means that Mu Nan understands that the building below is not only a track, but also a survival channel for people to escape in the future. The country's plan is really a big game of chess. Without a bit of decision-making courage, no one can play such a race against the clock Survival decision.

But this is also thanks to their strong infrastructure. Even if life and death are urgent, looking at the world, apart from their country, few countries can do such a large-scale operation in such a short time and with limited resources.

So this road is not direct, it is winding, and the speed may not be too fast. It is normal that it takes so long. Anyway, they don’t need to walk, and there is an air conditioner. If it takes longer, it will be longer than before. On foot, this time the migration is easy to enjoy.

It's a pity that although the car started, but because it was underground, it was pitch black from the side windows, at most a few track lights flashed, Mu Nan lost interest after looking at it for a while.

Qin Huai was working, and Wu Zheng was leaning on a chair to sleep. He couldn't fall asleep even after a night of sleep, so he just put his phone on the table, and Song Jia and Song Jia each had an earphone, and lay on the table with a pillow in their arms to watch a movie.

The first few hours were pretty good. After watching a few episodes of TV series, it was time to eat. Meals are not provided on the bus, but they are sold. The price is definitely more expensive than the ones in the residential area. The main ones are steamed bread and corn cakes. For something a little more flavorful, there is fried rice with fried noodles.

A serving of fried noodles or fried rice costs ten yuan. Mu Nan saw that someone ordered it, but the color of the white kaka was almost the same as that without soy sauce. It must have been given some oil and salt, not to mention fried noodles. The finished product was then heated in the microwave for a while, and it was directly wrapped into a lump, which really made people lose their appetite.

They can’t count on train meals. Although they didn’t expect it at first, the taste of this car meal was mediocre in the past, but there are instant noodles that can stand up to it. Now it’s better to eat steamed buns. It’s better than those fried rice. The fried noodles are more fragrant.

Because the whole carriage is very quiet, although there are some people talking in low voices, like them, there are more people with families, or it is obvious that some colleagues are talking about work, but the voices are carefully lowered, making Jane At first they were too embarrassed to speak loudly, like thieves.

Mu Nan asked softly, "How many steamed buns do you want?"

Jian Chu made a comparison next door, and Mu Nan handed over a bag of steamed buns. There were exactly six of them in it. After filling the steamed buns with hot sauce, Mu Nan handed them over to Jian Chu and the others.

Before they set off, they agreed that Jianchu and the others would make sugar-filled tortillas, which could be stored for a while, at least for two or three days. The steamed buns at the back can’t be kept, and the weather is hot, so it’s easy to get sour.

Then he and Qin Huai prepared the sauce. The pork sauce was made by Qin Huai himself, and it was no worse than beef sauce. Fortunately, he could buy some pork later, otherwise Qin Huai might only be able to make mushroom sauce.

Although the first day was a pain in the back, I got through it anyway. The second day was even more difficult, because the speed of the car was not fast, and it was not a straight track. There were many turning places, so it was good to get motion sickness. Dude, Qin Huai didn't work anymore, so he let Mu Nan lie on top of him, rubbing and pressing him to relieve him.

Mu Nan was not the most motion sick, Yu Zibai was the most motion sick among them, he vomited until there was only sour water left, not to mention eating, even drinking water made his stomach sick.

Jian Chu, who was at the side, was amused and distressed when he saw his miserable appearance: "I heard that people who get motion sickness are people with strong brain balance, just like those who are highly reflexive. Those with a strong body are stronger than those with a weak body." Easy to reverse."

Yu Zibai leaned on the chair, unable to open his eyes at all, vomited so much that he couldn't even swallow the motion sickness medicine, it was miserable.

Hearing Jian Chu's words, Mu Nan stood up with difficulty: "Is it true?"

Qin Huai fed him two sips of water: "Is it true?"

Mu Nan: "Is it easier to be rebellious if you are in good health than in bad health?"

Qin Huai: "At that time, the medicine to adapt to the high reaction will be issued in advance, so don't worry, lie down and sleep for a while, and persist, we will be there soon."

Mu Nan closed his eyes again and lay down on Qin Huai's body. There was Xiaohuai plum in his space, the sour one, but he couldn't take it out. This kind of snack could only be eaten secretly by himself, after all these years have passed, These things are long gone, and there is no reason to take them out, so I can only pity Yu Zibai for his perseverance.

After three full days on the bullet train, they arrived in the capital when they got used to the bullet train and had no symptoms of motion sickness.

I originally thought that I would take a rest in the capital anyway, take a rest for a day, make some food supplies, and see what the residence in the capital looks like.

Unexpectedly, when I got off the train, I was pulled into another car, which seemed to be an aerobic bus. Everyone sent a box of medicines with simple packaging and no explanation. There were seven medicines in total. drink one.

Mu Nan looked at it for a long time but didn't see what it was, and didn't know if it was good to drink. Qin Huai asked him to put the thing in the space and put it away: "If it's not good, you have to drink it. It seems that this way of transporting people has been used. Several batches have been made, and a process has been formed.”

Mu Nan said: "That is to say, when we get there, we should be able to enjoy the achievements of our predecessors, isn't it rebuilding and opening up wasteland?"

Qin Huai shook his head: "Probably not. If we start rebuilding and land reclamation now, it will be too late. Half of the city area in Bei'an has already been washed away by sea water."

Bei'an is their neighboring province. Bei'an's offline is a whole province away from the city of Haikou. The coastal cities have been submerged long ago. Now even Bei'an has been swallowed up by half. It really won't be long. It's up to them Kang Yun.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to start rebuilding now. Maybe the city of refuge has already started preparations after the earthquake.

Generally speaking, Qin Huai's guess is very reliable. When the vehicle drove west along the flat road that seemed to be repaired later, it could be seen that this line into Tibet should have been opened for a long time.

So the driver is familiar with the roads, and there are rest stops at intervals. The rest stops are the kind of Datong bunk. A room can sleep 20 or 30 people. It is a common bunk bed. Anyway, I just rest for a day and leave. , and knew that complaining was useless, so everyone accepted it calmly.

The night here is dark and late, and the sky is still bright at about seven or eight o'clock in the evening, but after the sunlight is not so strong, we continue on the road, driving all the way without stopping until we arrive at the second rest stop at five or six o'clock the next morning. It doesn't stop for a minute in the middle, so the physiological needs can only be held back.

When the driver informed them that they could start taking medicine in advance, it was already the sixth day of non-stop running around on the bus.

Although there is no need to walk by yourself, and there is an air conditioner in the car, although the outside temperature is too high to make the car quite hot even with the air conditioner turned on, it is acceptable to fan yourself with a small fan, but more than a dozen people a day The hour-long drive is also very tossing, and in addition to the dark sky, except for the road illuminated by the headlights in front, the sides of the car windows are black and you can't see your fingers, let alone the scenery.

Mu Nan has been kneaded into a ball of pickles by the rush all the way, and said in a daze: "This is the first time I came to the Tibetan area, I didn't see the purest scenery, but I can feel the huge area of ​​the Tibetan area. "

This car seems to be driving all the way without end. If it is during the day and you can see the surrounding scenery, it seems to be a good way to go all the way. Unfortunately, it is too dark at night, there is no light at all, and everything you can see is darkness. People are just tired.

Fortunately, this kind of fatigue didn't last long. They finally arrived at their destination on the ninth day after they boarded the bus. The specific place was too dark to see whether it was a mountain or a plain, and they could only see the bus. The car drove into a place that looked like a tunnel. After driving for a long time, it passed through one after another gates that looked like those in science fiction movies, and finally came to an indoor square.

A staff member in protective clothing came over with a tight mask, asked them to line up, entered a room, scanned the barcode on their wristbands and swiped their ID cards, and then entered another room after passing through, and took off their clothes. The clothes are checked from head to toe, and then fingerprints are entered to draw blood. After all this is done, a room card will be obtained from the staff, and they will be quarantined and observed for seven days.

Looking at the room card in his hand, Mu Nan couldn't help asking: "Is it a room for one person? Can I be isolated and observed with my family?"

The staff shook his head directly: "After the observation period, you can meet your family members after you come out."

This is probably the above regulation, and it is also for their own safety. Mu Nan has no choice but to follow the staff's guidance and carry his bag to find his own room. He still regrets it. If he had known that he would be separated, he would have It's time to put more things in Qin Huai's bag.

But he was just in case something happened on the road, so Qin Huai's bag was full of food. Thinking of the meticulous inspection just now, Mu Nan recalled the things in that bag for Qin Huai, there should be nothing that he couldn't take out, right? .

Behind him, Qin Huai was packing everything he had checked into his bag. He didn't even have two pieces of clothes in his bag. Except for the computer, there were only a few boxes of big white steamed buns, various sauces, and big bags. Packaged dried meat and other things in sealed packages, as for the eyes of those inspectors who didn't know whether it was surprise or indescribable, he didn't have time to pay attention. He only thought about how he could get the materials prepared for Jian Chu and the others if the city of refuge was so strict. Take it out safely.

Hearing that there will be seven days of isolation and observation, Qin Huai has no objection, but just asked: "Is there an Internet here? If you can't go out of the room to meet, you should be able to use the Internet to contact people, right?"

And then, Mu Nan, who was lying bored playing single-player games in a room with only one bed, a desk and a bathroom, was knocked on the door by the staff and handed over a mobile phone card.

He thought it was some kind of observation program, such as filling in information, but he didn't expect that once the card was installed in the mobile phone, it would be connected to the Internet, and then a video call would come over. Mu Nan clicked on it, and saw Qin Huai's card With a handsome face, he was pleasantly surprised and said: "Brother! Wow, the service here is very good. We can't meet each other, and even issued a card for us to connect online."

Qin Huai at the other end of the video smiled and said, "Stupid or not, this is in exchange for the bag of jerky you stuffed in my bag."

Mu Nan suddenly cheered: "Well, I thought that as long as you come here, you will be given out basic daily necessities. Brother, what room are you in? I'm in 518, are you far away from me?"

Qin Huai: "I'm next to you. We lined up to check, so the assigned isolation rooms should be next to each other."

Mu Nan hurriedly ran to knock on the wall, then looked at the camera: "Did you hear me knock on the wall?"

Qin Huai smiled: "I heard that, I'm right next to you."

As Qin Huai said, although he knew that Mu Nan was very vigilant, he still reminded him: "I asked, we have records on the food handed over in the city before, have you seen the tablet on the table, put the You can read your information by pasting your ID card on the groove at the back. Free quarantine meals are not provided here. You can buy what you want to eat through the tablet, but the corresponding money or rice grains in your account will be deducted. Although the food may not be delicious, But bear with it, when you leave the isolation point and have a place to live, I'll make you whatever you want to eat."

The meaning of this is to tell Mu Nan not to touch things in the space. He is not sure whether these isolated rooms are monitored, and even the bathroom may not be safe, so he must be careful.

Mu Nan understood Qin Huai's words, and nodded again and again: "I see, brother, how does this network charge? By traffic or by days or something? Can we keep it on all the time? I don't want to be locked in the room alone. inside."

No matter what the fee is, Qin Huai can afford it, so he said: "Then turn it on, and turn it off when you sleep to let the phone have a rest."

Mu Nan lay on the table and looked at the camera: "I don't know what kind of place we will go after leaving the isolation point. The control here is very strict, but this is good, at least those who can come in are healthy, brother , You said that we will not live under various surveillance all the time in the future, right?"

Judging from the strictness of their censorship along the way, it seems that it is not impossible.

Qin Huai: "Don't worry, it won't happen, Nan Nan, maybe your previous dungeon comics have really come true."
