Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

Liu Caixia started the car and drove forward along the dry riverbed. After the car drove slowly for a long distance, she found that there was a vast desert on the other side of the riverbed.

The desert stretched to the horizon, making them feel insignificant.

"Dad, look, there's a desert over there. We must be going the wrong direction. It feels like we're getting further and further away!"

"Okay, let's reverse the car and drive in the opposite direction. We don't know the situation, so it's okay to try a little more. It's cool in the car anyway, and we don't have to get out and walk."

So Liu Caixia reversed the car and drove back. At this time, they were really a little confused about the direction and could only walk along the riverbed. After all, for five thousand years, people have lived by the river.

It's always right to walk along the river, even if it's dry.

They continued walking back, and after about half an hour, some flat terrain gradually appeared on both sides of the riverbed. After another half an hour, they found an abandoned small village.

There were some visible houses in the village, as well as dry, bare fields. Although they seemed to have been abandoned for a long time, their shapes showed that they had once been fields.

As the car got closer, we saw the abandoned village halfway up the mountain. There was a dirt road winding around the hillside, with endless cracked yellow earth on both sides and only some dry weeds and trees on the hillside. Wherever the eyes could see, there was no trace of lush green.

The river is so dry, I guess there's a drought.

Could it be that the weather was exposed to the sun right after the red rain? That doesn't make sense. It shouldn't be so dry all of a sudden.

Liu Caixia stopped the car, and several people stood on the bed and looked around.

“Is this a drought?”

"This shouldn't happen. How could it become so dry all of a sudden?"

"We shouldn't have been unconscious for long, right?"

The four of them discussed for a while but couldn't come to a conclusion. They stood outside for a while and were already sweating profusely.

Father Liu pulled at his clothes and touched Jiang Xiaolu's head with his hand.

"It's too hot, let's go back to the car."

The few of them returned to the car to cool down. The heat made them lose their appetite. Father Liu looked at the few people who were exhausted from the sun and said, "You should eat something and drink more water, otherwise your body won't be able to bear it."

"Xiao Lu, bring out something appetizing. I really don't feel like eating."

Jiang Xiaolu took out the packed porridge and pickles, "How about porridge and pickles? That's what I want to eat?"

"Okay, let's eat this!"

"Xiao Lu, I remember your Aunt Zhang made braised meat before, you can get some more! You can't not eat meat."

"Okay." Jiang Xiaolu took another food bag of braised meat. The braised meat was all cut, including braised beef, braised pig ears, pig tails, and braised chicken feet.

Jiang Xiaolu also gave everyone a pair of disposable gloves to eat the braised meat.

"The braised pork made by Xiao Zhang is still so delicious!" Father and Mother Liu took a piece of braised beef and started chewing it.

"Chicken feet are delicious too." Jiang Xiaolu took a bite of the chicken feet and sighed while lying comfortably in the chair.

"I'll make it for you if you want to eat it in the future. You can eat it every day."

"Yes, we will live together from now on. If you want to eat, you can cook it yourself."

After eating and drinking, Liu Caixia drove the car in the riverbed for about another hour. They finally discovered something terrible. The car had been driving for three hours in total. There was no one or monster within a hundred miles. The riverbed was full of dry loess. The car was shaking in the bumpy cracks of the riverbed so much that everyone was about to get carsick. It was okay before because they hadn't eaten, but now they were really about to vomit after eating and drinking.

Liu Caixia stopped the car and decided to let everyone take a break. If this continued, everyone would really vomit.

"This road is really too difficult to walk on. We can't stand it anymore. Let's stop and take a rest!"

"Okay, we don't have a better solution at the moment, so we can only take it one step at a time!"

After getting off the car, they found that the sun was really strong. As soon as they came out of the air-conditioned room in the car, the heat immediately hit them in the face, making them sweat instantly. Several of them were wearing long sports suits for convenience of movement, but now they were too hot.

Liu Caixia quickly said to Jiang Xiaolu, "Xiaolu, please find some cool summer clothes for everyone to change into. No one remembered to change clothes just now, and everyone is still wearing long sleeves and long pants!"

It was also very hot before, but not as hot as it is here now. Wearing long sleeves and long pants is also to prevent being scratched by monsters. At least there is a layer of protection. Even if you are not scratched, it is disgusting if your skin is touched by monsters.

Wang Xiaolu said "OK" and pulled out a bag of clothes. Changing clothes was also a hassle, so everyone took off their coats and held them above their heads to block the scorching sun. Everyone wore a simple T-shirt underneath.

Father Liu said, "Just make do with it for now. You guys go back to the car and change clothes later! I'll change last."

In order to facilitate travel, everyone wore more sporty clothes to make it easier to fight monsters.

The five of us found a shady spot by the riverbed and sat down. We realized that it was not realistic to put on short sleeves after taking them off. Our arms seemed to be exposed to the sun. With this sun, our skin would definitely be sunburned in a short time.

"Let's take a break and discuss what to do next. Let's see if there's anything useful in the backpack. Xiaolu, you can also look for an umbrella and sunscreen from the space, as well as a sun hat and sun-proof clothing."

Liu's father also said, "Yes, just take off the coat, but keep the pants on. It's better to have a hot spot than a sunburn."

Liu Caixia said, "Okay. We'll be in the car most of the time anyway, and we can tolerate the air conditioning in the car."

Liu Caixia is now independent and has become the backbone of their group. After being hunted by a scumbag and monsters, her character has gradually become stronger, independent and assertive.

After all, her parents are old, and Jiang Xiaolu is only 12 years old. She feels that she must work hard to become stronger so that she can take care of her relatives.

Liu's father and mother also wanted to listen to Liu Caixia on everything, mainly to cultivate her independent character.

Mother Liu took out some drinks from her bag and shared them with everyone. She also took out some spare food from the bag and put it outside and said, "It's too hot in this weather. Use up the things outside first. The things in Xiaolu's space won't go bad anyway. Use up the things outside and then take them out from the space. You see, this drink will become hot after you take it out in a while! If it doesn't work, we'll have to ask Xiaolu to put it away. Anyway, we've been walking for so long and there's no one around."

"Yeah, it's so hot." Jiang Xiaolu said while drinking a drink.

Several people drank water while looking around.
