Apocalyptic Tundra Age

Xu Zhonglei expected that the ice would melt with a "boom" one day, and all the ice on the top of the mountain would slide down along the water flow like stones and hit his wall, rumbling.

But since the temperature dropped to zero, there was the sound of dripping water all over his house, and ice cubes fell from the high eaves from time to time.

Even Xu Zhonglei and Cheng Yuming had to wear a hat when they went out, and walked along the wall, for fear that something might happen and a hole would be punched in their heads.

After the sound of dripping water lasted for six days, Xu Zhonglei went up the mountain again. There was no snow on the mountain, and this winter was officially over.

As the temperature rose by ten degrees, Xu Zhonglei wanted to try to plant all the greenhouses outside his home with Chinese cabbage, an artifact of the Northeast winter. This vegetable is cold-resistant, nutritious, and easy to preserve.

So the two of them came and went in the wind and the soil all day long, and dug the soil in the mud for several days. After leveling the land, they dug small pits and applied compound fertilizer.

Xu Zhonglei chopped down all the bamboos in his yard that didn't seem to be turning green at all. , After digging out the plastic film I bought last year, I built two rows of vegetable greenhouses, with a total of [-] cabbage pits, waiting to eat Chinese cabbage in two months.

The cabbage seeds gradually germinated in the seedling shed and became green. Xu Zhonglei waited until they grew high enough to send them to the pit.

"Stones! What are you going to plant?" Xu Zhiping came from his shed, saw Xu Zhonglei in the vegetable garden, opened the door of the vegetable garden and entered.

Xu Zhiping's face has grown whiter after two months of heavy snow, and it no longer has a strong visual impact like a lump of black charcoal, so from a distance, Xu Zhonglei can only recognize people by the orange coat.

"Cabbage, these two sheds are all ready to grow cabbage," said Xu Zhonglei, with mud on his hands, and wearing rubber overshoes, just like an old farmer in the countryside.

"They all grow cabbage? Cabbage doesn't taste good if it's not frosted. Spring cabbage is tasteless. You might as well grow some other leafy vegetables." Xu Zhiping was surprised. It is planted after harvesting, just to eat in winter.

"No taste is better than nothing to eat. I don't know when the temperature will drop again. Cabbage grows fast, so don't worry."

Xu Zhonglei wiped his hands. Xu Zhiping came at the right time. He was so tired that he wanted to go back and have a rest. By the way, he greeted Cheng Yuming: "Xiao Cheng, I'm going back, come back after dinner!"

Back in the room, Xu Zhiping held the cup and frowned, as if he had a lot to say.

"Stone, didn't you say that there will be some kind of ice period? I've been thinking about it recently, hey, our place hasn't snowed for so long in a row. Is it just that ice period?"

"You are talking about the ice age. What kind of ice age is this? It only snows for two months. In the real ice age, thank God for two months of no snow in a year! If it weren't for me, why would I grow cabbage outside? Nothing compares to it." Is spring cabbage delicious?" Xu Zhonglei is always pessimistic about the future.

Xu Zhiping: "I came here just to talk to you. Isn't Xu Chongda planning to plant rice recently, using the one mu of land I contracted. His family has a lot of people, and the rice tank is about to bottom out. Now the whole family is growing rice. I am preparing to soak the seeds, and the ground is ready to plant rice.

People with a little bit of labor in the village wanted to grow rice with Xu Chongbai. Yesterday, there were not many people in the greenhouse, and Dai Sheng was alone in the greenhouse today.

When I asked, hey, everyone said they wanted to grow rice to eat. Think about it, the rice needs to be twenty degrees Celsius to grow well!At that time, there will be a heavy snow, that is, what kind of ice age, I see them one by one, there is no place to cry! "

"If you want to grow something to fill your stomach, potatoes are okay, but rice? That's a dream!" Xu Zhonglei snorted.

Everyone in the village is blindly optimistic. Xu Zhonglei plans to stop planting sweet potatoes after harvesting them this year.After all, two crops of potatoes can be grown in the time it takes to plant one crop of sweet potatoes, so potatoes are more cost-effective.

Xu Zhonglei, a landlord, dare not gamble with the weather. The people in the village are going to plant it immediately. It looks like something that can only grow in the sun. Isn't that just a dream?

"Planting rice is not enough. I heard them say that they want to buy fertilizers and pesticides, and also want to buy some high-yield seeds. They also discussed digging the road and going to the town to have a look. Hey, it's not that we don't know the town. How could they be so courageous because of the situation in the village? Will they die if they stay in the village!" Xu Zhiping has always had a good temper and started to curse.

It has nothing to do with Xu Zhonglei to grow rice or anything, but Xu Zhonglei suddenly became angry when he had to dig the road.

"Damn, crazy! Those people are tired of eating and drinking, and the road has been dug. When the time comes, bring someone to our side. Just bring a gun over there. Look at our village. If there is still a way out in the village, everyone in the village will be killed by them!" Xu Zhonglei wished to kill those restless psychopaths.

Xu Zhiping scolded, but thought it wasn't that serious: "Isn't it? Isn't that against the law?"

"Not so? Hehe." Xu Zhonglei sneered, "First, even if the country is still there, there is no way to pass on the country's orders and rescue to us. If there is no way, we have to walk on two legs. Two thousand miles? Who will come to uphold justice?

Second, there was an earthquake first, then it rained, and then it snowed heavily. None of the people in the town, Xu Zhiping, led them to dig earth to build a house and grow vegetables. Those who survived now would probably be like those dogs. Cannibalism.

The third one is that people eat soil and eat people. We still think that rice with soy sauce is not delicious.They are called desperadoes, they live every day, they are desperate, can we beat them?All of them are fat and white, maybe they are going to eat us after eating our own food, some meat! "

It's not that Xu Zhonglei is vicious, but that he does not hesitate to guess human nature in the worst direction.

"You... Stone... why do you think so?" Xu Zhiping couldn't accept it.

"Brother Zhiping, it means that the people in our village are living so well in the village. You can't believe what I said when you look at you..." With that said, Xu Zhonglei has nothing to say.

"It's just that it's a cannibal... Those who will go to jail, and those who will be shot..." Xu Zhiping's concept of the world is still in the world before the earthquake, where the public security system is complete, and grassroots civil servants are tortured by ordinary people.

He doesn't read much online novels, so he still has no concept of catastrophe.

"Anyway, believe it or not, brother Zhiping, you have to beat them, or scare them. It's good to prevent the villagers from thinking carefully, doing wrong things, and bringing disaster over." Xu Zhonglei gave advice, and he We cannot stare at the villagers 24 hours a day and prevent them from going out. We can only frighten them, thinking that there are wolves, tigers and leopards outside.

"I'm going to get some rice, Brother Zhiping, you can stay here for a meal." Cheng Yuming, who had been sitting and listening to the conversation, saw that it was almost time to go to wash the rice, and by the way eased the rather stiff atmosphere.

"No, no, how dare you have the nerve to eat your family's food at this time? Then I'll go first." Xu Zhiping said goodbye quickly, put on his shoes and prepared to leave.

"Brother Zhiping, don't leave yet, I'll give you a solution, just say that..." Xu Zhonglei thought of a trick that could scare the kind-hearted villagers.

After Xu Zhiping left, Cheng Yuming stopped cooking, approached Xu Zhonglei and asked, "Brother, I don't even know, that's how you look at the outside world."

Xu Zhonglei: "Didn't I tell you?"

Cheng Yuming:? ? ?

Oh, Xu Zhonglei made an old mistake.

"What did you talk to brother Zhiping just now?" Cheng Yuming asked curiously without bothering about it.

"Secret it~ You'll know in two days." Xu Zhonglei turned his head and went to the kitchen, leaving behind a chic back.

***

"Hey, Brother Darie, do you know..."

"Let me tell you, they are really miserable..."

Within two days, a story spread in the village: when it was snowing, someone from the village went to the town to see it.The townspeople are all over the Strawberry Fields.There are dozens of people over there.There is neither food nor firewood, and they are going to kill people to fill their stomachs. The human flesh is frozen outside, and the human bones are used as firewood.

The man in the village thought it was some kind of pork, so he went over to buy some to try.As a result, I walked in and saw that it was half a skinned hand!The man was scared out of his wits, and ran back quickly, and heard the people over there say: "It's a pity, I didn't catch it!"

According to word of mouth, all the strange details were added, saying that the man was Xu Tianci, who stayed in the house all day because he was afraid that the villagers would eat him;

It is said that the human flesh in the town hides nails and poison in it, and it is intended to be used to treat dogs passing by. They are catching dogs with meat;

It is said that the town didn't eat human flesh at first, but there was an orphan boy who couldn't control the fire and burned himself to death. As a result, the boy burned more and more fragrant, and the whole place was so fragrant that people flowed Drooling, the boy's neighbor pretended to collect the boy's body, but actually dragged it to the side of the road and ate all the meat...

He also said that the townspeople don’t eat their own food. They moved their camp to the place closest to the road, burned many fires, and roasted the meat. The meat was more delicious than any meat they had ever eaten.

After people were attracted, they said that there were more delicious things in the tent, but when they went in, they saw that there was a "pig-killing grandson" in the town, sharpening his knife and shouting at the person who came in: "Don't be afraid. , make sure you don't hurt..."

"Isn't it fake? A piece of meat catches dogs and people? Besides, didn't you say that there was no firewood in the town before, and you still have to burn human bones? Now you burn so many fires to attract people by roasting meat? That's a lack of firewood. Or is there no shortage of firewood?"

Cheng Yuming listened to the "gossip" delivered by Zeng Cheng, with a look of dubious doubt. This story has too many loopholes, it is simply a black hole!

"You don't care if it's loopholes or not. Eating ten eggs in the morning can prevent viruses. Can you believe it? I've never seen a weirder statement than that. It's not like there are so many people who choke to death and want to eat it. Anyway, I'm talking People will believe what they say, and three people become tigers, you must have heard of it." Xu Zhonglei hides his merits and fame so deeply that he scares you to death!
