Apocalyptic Tundra Age

Today is the day for primary school students to report, the 28th day of the first month of the lunar calendar, which is the [-]th day of the first month of the Gregorian calendar.

Xu Zhonglei knew that he had to speed up his progress, and he could have returned half a month earlier.But in order to get the year-end bonus and sell the house in Guang'an by the way, he insisted on staying in Guang'an for a while.

There was a buyer who probably had his eye on the house a long time ago, thinking of saving some money, he kept pushing the price down.Xu Zhiping didn't want to sell it off, so the two went back and forth for several days.Fortunately, after finally meeting the cheerful seller, negotiating the price and going through the formalities, Xu Zhonglei hurriedly packed his things and came back, unexpectedly the first month has passed.

He watched Brother Zhiping contacting the excavator and recruiting workers and masons, so he didn't bother him, and left after drinking tea.All the way back along the field ridge, the sun was shining brightly, and soon I was sweating profusely.

When I was in Guang'an, no one thought there was anything wrong. No matter how strong the sun was, as long as the company's central air conditioner was turned on, it would be cool and refreshing immediately.Rural people also think that this is just some small anomaly, no matter how long the sun shines, it will always rain.

Only Xu Zhonglei knows that this sun will last for a year, until the volcano erupts, until the end of the world.

***

Of course, in 2023, it is still a socialist society, there is no small space for Yu Peili, and there is no Rebirth and Revenge.

Xu Zhonglei is an ordinary 996 office worker.Go to school, go to school, and find a job step by step, and then the surplus value is severely squeezed by the capitalist boss.If it is legendary or idiosyncratic, it is not his turn. It is definitely his turn to be the mother of the urban business war upgrade Shuangwen script first.

Xu Zhonglei works as a design dog in a small company with about 200 employees. His full name in the circle is "Drawing Migrant Workers".The main job content is to receive jobs and draw pictures. Party A's father said no, so he changed the picture.After seven or eight revisions, Party A's father said that he wanted the first draft of the kind of migrant worker who drew pictures.

In December last year, the year-end summary was so busy that people were in a hurry. His old client, who was in charge of Lao Wang, added fuel to the fire and placed a new order-the design draft of a single-family villa, and listed more than a dozen pieces of requirements There are many, and the area is very large. It was only given for ten days, but it was given [-].

The supervisor readily accepted the order and gave them Group C as a year-end "benefit".Xu Zhonglei, as the team leader, was stuck in the summary of the work report while drawing pictures desperately.

He spent the first three days doing work reports for himself and the team, but he could only make up for it in the next six days.On the last day, he had been up for five days, sleeping four hours a day in the company, and continued his life on Nescafe sugar-free super strong black coffee.

The 24-hour hot water prepared by the company, as well as rooms for bathing and washing, and a camping folding bed are tailor-made for migrant workers like him.

After Xu Zhonglei synthesized the results of the group, revised them, and then integrated them and sent them to the supervisor.Xu Zhonglei felt a sharp pain in his heart, the eardrums in his ears were rumbling, his mind became confused, and a foggy sky spread before his eyes, he tried his best to pull the girl next to him Clothes, want to ask for help, but can only speak vaguely.

"I can not make it."

He mouthed the last word, then fell back in a happy and relieved posture, and fell to the ground with a "boom".

Xu Zhonglei's last realization turned out to be: Ah!Fortunately, time has not passed!

When Xu Zhonglei woke up, he found that he had turned into a pair of eyes, the eyes of a little girl.An eight-year-old third grade girl named Du Zigui.He followed Du Zigui to see the world, and felt that he had also changed from 1.7 meters five to a ninety centimeters little loli.

Zigui has a simple family and a happy life. His parents work hard and occasionally go out to eat, drink and have fun; Zigui goes to school happily and likes to write small notes in class.

Time passed slowly, and Zigui continued to attend classes after the Chinese New Year and school started.When it was the midterm exam, she couldn't figure out how to write the words and looked up at the sky, Xu Zhonglei suddenly discovered that it hadn't rained this year!

Something is sure to happen!According to his precise intuition.

Xu Zhonglei stopped laughing at the bluffing Zigui all the time, and started to pay attention to what happened.

Zigui's mother bought fewer and fewer green vegetables, and one broccoli actually cost 21 yuan!However, Zigui’s usual shop for snacks did not raise prices.

Looks like a simple drought!So Xu Zhonglei continued to fish leisurely, intending to enjoy this stolen childhood life.

This drought lasted for a long time, so long that Zigui was about to finish the first semester of the fourth grade, and it was not over yet.Zigui's mother doesn't often buy vegetables anymore, she usually buys the cheapest cabbage once a week.Xu Zhonglei glanced at the receipt: 60 yuan each!

The drought has caused frequent water cuts at schools and homes, and bottled water has increased by two yuan.

On a Sunday when Zigui was preparing for the final exam, the sky turned dark!

The air was filled with the pungent sulfur smell, and a large darkness poured into the home.Xu Zhonglei could see clearly that those sulfur-smelling things came from the sky with the clouds!

Zigui sat by the window sill of his room, eyes darkened.He was so frightened that his voice became sharp, and he shouted: "Ah! Mom! Dad! It's so dark, help!"

Zigui's mother and father were in the living room and saw the vision.Hearing her daughter's voice again, she hurried over, also frightened by the black infestation.Zigui's father turned on the light, picked up his mobile phone to watch the news, and Zigui's mother hugged Zigui and comforted him softly.

"Ah, I found it and read it to you, don't be afraid. According to the National Weather Service, a super-large volcano in the Pacific Ocean erupted, and the smoke and dust from the eruption will drift to the coast of my country with the atmospheric circulation in the near future. Due to the global drought and insufficient water vapor, artificial It is raining, citizens, please take precautions and pay attention to safety."

Zigui's father said in a calm voice, "That volcano is called McCarthy Volcano. It is the largest extinct volcano in the world. Its eruption may herald the coming of an active period of earth's crustal movement."

Zigui's mother and Zigui gradually calmed down because of his father's voice and the dim light in the bedroom. Zigui's mother smiled and said, "Old Du, do you want us to go to work tomorrow, and Zigui to go to school?"

Zigui widened his eyes, waiting for a response.

"Tomorrow is Monday, school is on holiday, so you don't have to go to school! But classes still have to go!"

"Yeah!" Zigui cheered.

It seemed that the crisis was over, but Xu Zhonglei was still uneasy.

One late night, Xu Zhonglei faintly heard the sound of howling in his ears.Hearing a bang, making a noise as loud as two trains colliding, Zigui was also woken up, and then found that the bottom of his feet was shaking. Zigui's father rushed to Zigui's room wearing only pajama pants, picked up Zigui and left. Run downstairs!

"Huihui, there's an earthquake, run! Run downstairs, take the stairs! Don't take anything!" He shouted as he ran, frantically unlocking the lock.

The door opened and the vibration stopped.

Zigui's father put down Zigui and made a quick decision, went to the room to get dressed, and took Zigui and his wife's clothes together, and asked Zigui's mother to bring some food, and Zigui's mother returned the steamed buns, instant noodles, and yogurt in the refrigerator. There are snacks, seaweed and so on in a big schoolbag.Zigui's father knocked on the doors of several neighbors and told them to go down quickly, as there might be aftershocks.

A family of three walked down the stairs with their backs bowed.

After going downstairs, Zigui's father went to drive. Fortunately, he didn't park the car in the underground garage today, it was on the side of the road.Zigui's father explained while driving, "Our side is full of high-rise buildings. If one of them falls down, they will all fall down. If we want to be safe, we must go to the industrial area."

Zigui's mother is desperately calling!Call colleagues, classmates, everyone you know, "Get up! There's an earthquake!"

Zigui also took his father's mobile phone to make a call, and Zigui's father asked her to press the call log one by one. Xu Zhonglei was very nervous and always paid attention to everything. Looking at Zigui's father's call log, the third one was Cao Pingjian!

Who is Cao Pingjian?If you want to ask Xu Zhonglei's C group, absolutely everyone knows it.It's the old customer who loves to impose deadlines on orders, but is absolutely generous, the supervisor!Xu Zhonglei's father of Party A!

Maybe the same name!

Xu Zhonglei silently remembered this Cao Pingjian, and watched Zigui's father skillfully drive to the provincial road out of the city.

As the ground shook for a while, Zigui's cell phone fell on the carpet in the car, and outside the car window, a tall building collapsed in front of their family.

"It's coming again! I can't drive anymore!" Zigui's father stepped on the brakes, waiting for the ground to pass.

At this time, the sky was a cloudy yellow, but it was much better than the thick black before. The family looked at the car lights, only dust flying, and the sound of buildings collapsing one after another came from their ears.

The earthquake did not stop until Zigui's family fled to the highway, and it was dawn by this time.Zigui's father has been swiping his mobile phone. With the help of the surviving base station near the high-speed service area, Xu Zhonglei already knows that this earthquake is not unique to Guang'an, but a global earthquake.The local seismic station in Guang'an advises citizens to save themselves.

They walked at high speed for a while, and found a mountain stretching in front of them, rising from the ground, directly jacking up the expressway in front of them, breaking it in half.

The earthquake was still going on, and the spare oil in the car was almost burned out.

Zigui was sleepy and hungry, he endured for a long time, finally his eyes went dark, and he fell asleep directly.

When Zigui woke up, Xu Zhonglei found that his family had taken all the clothes and food in the car and was walking on the mountain road.The father returned with the son in his arms, and the mother carried the things.Xu Zhonglei thought, it is too dangerous to walk on the mountain now, it is better to stay in the car.

It's a pity that Zigui's parents made a decision to take refuge on the mountain.

Maybe it was really lucky, after the earthquakes passed, except for Zigui's father who was hit by a rolling stone and suffered minor injuries, the family of three was fine.They kept walking up the mountain, following the paths made by their predecessors, while avoiding rocks and fallen trees, while looking for people living in the mountains to take a rest.But it was not until the third day that a small village was seen.

The small village was also severely affected. Only one newly built house survived the collapse, but the survivors in the village did not dare to approach that house.

Together with the villagers, their family took refuge in the spacious grain drying ground of the village committee, dug up grain and bedding from the ruins, and collected the dead bodies for cremation.Xu Zhonglei swears that he has never seen so many dead people, nor can he imagine that human beings can be so strong under such a disaster.

The earthquake lasted for a week, but there were no aftershocks. The heavy rain that accompanied the earthquake caused half of the villagers to fall ill. As a nurse, Zigui's mother won the respect of the villagers for her dedication to treating the patients.Zigui also had a good time with some little luotou in the village, but there was no rescue, not even a helicopter throwing supplies or a big broadcast rescue.

The people in the village went to the town and then to the county, but they were all in ruins, and they were all trying to save themselves.

Moreover, due to the non-stop rain, the earthquake killed many more people.Zigui's father, who followed him to the county town, knew that many people in the county town were already sick, which seemed to be an infectious disease.

Zigui's father acted decisively, separated the sick from the healthy, and called on everyone to pick up bricks and tiles from the ruins to build a house that could shelter from the rain.

Fortunately, due to the small number of people in the village and the active disposal of corpses, all the sick people have recovered, and the disease has not spread on a large scale.

It rained intermittently for more than three months, but there was still no rescue.Zigui's family already knew that Guang'an, a super city with a population of 2000 million, must not be entered, so their family decided to live here temporarily.

After the heavy rain stopped for a few days, a gloomy sun came out. It felt like the sun had turned into a huge light bulb. It had no heat and was only hung in the sky for lighting. The wind became stronger and stronger, and the air became Bitter, the temperature quickly dropped to zero.

Zigui's family had no quilts or warm clothes, so they could only shiver under the cloth scraped from the ruins.

That day was definitely Xu Zhonglei's nightmare for the rest of his life.

The cold current from the north roared in, and the endless trees were immediately covered with white. The cold air rushed to Zigui, turning the little girl who was at the door into an ice ball, and carried her head to the ground.

When Xu Zhonglei woke up again, Zigui's whole body was bruised and purple, only the upper and lower teeth were fighting. He saw Zigui's mother holding Zigui in her arms, and wiping Zigui's limbs with the snow outside, while Zigui's father was pouring Zigui into the brazier. Putting the firewood on, Zigui closed his eyes again——
