With the help of Qin Lan and Ding Ning, the work in the refuge was completed
much faster than usual when Chen Xin was alone.
The work that originally took Chen Xin a whole day to finish was already
finished in one morning under the joint efforts of the three people.
"I didn't expect someone to help, things can be done so quickly, so that you
will be fine in the afternoon." After lunch, Chen Xin couldn't help but sigh,
and it was really easy for someone to help.
Hearing Chen Xin's words, Ding Ning couldn't help but joked at him: "Axin said
that, it seems that he wants someone to stay! Then do you want me and Sister
Lan to stay? Or just want Sister Lan to stay alone? Coming down?"
Ding Ning's words made Chen Xin and Qin Lan feel a little bit shy, but Chen
Xin still shook his head and said, "I want you both to stay and live, but it
would be inconvenient for you two to go to work?"
Although Chen Xin’s vehicle upgrade is already in progress, considering the
distance between Chen Xin’s shelter and the city, even if his SUV is upgraded
to an ATV, it is still not a convenient way to drive them to work. s Choice.
After all, even if the vehicle has been remodeled, frequent driving out in
this environment is still a troublesome thing, and it is not a safe choice.
So Ding Ning was just joking. After Chen Xin said so, he skipped the topic.
Seeing Ding Ning skipped this topic, Chen Xin didn't mind that the three of
them were still chatting about other topics while eating lunch.
"Axin, what are you planning to do this afternoon?" Qin Lan asked Chen Xin
about his afternoon arrangements.
She is not an idle person, and in this environment, having nothing to do is a
very tormenting thing.
"I plan to continue to play with my car in the afternoon and modify it." Chen
Xin answered Qin Lan's question, and also asked her: "Alan, what are you and
Xiaoding going to do this afternoon? If you want to play games, games You can
play whatever you like."
Facing Chen Xin's politeness, Qin Lan shook her head and said, "Just play
games. I want to do some physical training in the afternoon. I have been lying
in the hospital for so long before, and I feel like my whole person is rusty."
When Chen Xin heard Qin Lan say this, he didn't stop her from thinking. He
just told Qin Lan to pay attention to the wound and didn't say much.
On the other hand, Ding Ning expressed his interest in remodeling cars and
wanted to see how Chen Xin did it. He also called it personal protection of
Chen Xin.
Hearing Ding Ning's words, Chen Xin didn't stop her either. After all, Ding
Ning was also sent to protect him, so there is nothing wrong with guarding
him.
After lunch, Ding Ning took the initiative to wash the dishes, while Qin Lan
went back to the bedroom, ready to take a break to start the afternoon
restorative physical training, while Chen Xin sat in front of the computer in
his bedroom and checked the design of the vehicle transformation. Figure, by
the way, I also opened the monitor to check the situation outside.
The snow at the gate of the refuge has a tendency to deepen again. From the
camera's point of view, almost half of the gate of the Chenxin refuge has been
submerged by snow.
This is not all snowfall from the sky. Although the city is adjacent to the
Yangtze River and Dongting Lake, precipitation is abundant throughout the
year, but with the further decrease in temperature, most of the newly formed
snow is not from the sky, but from other places. The snow was blown by the
wind everywhere, and there was the remaining snow.
This also reflects from the side how bad the weather is today. Without
sunlight, the atmospheric circulation also loses its power source, which makes
the climate worse.
The vegetation on the surface was also burned out in the previous fires.
Today's environmental vegetation is impossible to regenerate. The wind has
lost its obstruction and restraint, and it has become more and more violent.
Under this environment, human survival will only become more difficult.
Perhaps now because of the material reserves before the disaster and the
national system is still there, it can still ensure that most people who
survived can ensure basic living conditions and even have further improvement
in living conditions, but this does not mean Everything is over, the next step
is post-disaster reconstruction, and everything is going for the better.
Take this city as an example. At first glance, everything in this city seems
to be functioning normally, except that the surface cannot live and people
must live in underground shelters. Everything seems to be recovering.
The roads between the various shelters are open, and the supply of food and
various materials is guaranteed. As long as the people in the various shelters
in the urban area are willing to work, they will always have a meal, even if
they are not willing to do dangerous work, they are just taking refuge. You
won’t starve to death if you look for work.
But all the prerequisites for this are all based on the fact that the city's
material supply is not problematic.
The food is okay. Before the disaster, the city had a granary with a large
amount of food. After the disaster, the official planting area and various
shelters planted mushrooms, raised rats and breadworms, which can more or less
ensure food self-sufficiency, although There are only a few types of food, but
at least you can guarantee that you won’t die from starvation.
But the supply of other materials is very problematic, especially the supply
of coal.
The city is located on the banks of Dongting Lake. Before the disaster, it was
indeed surrounded by mountains and rivers. It can be called a beautiful
scenery and beautiful environment. Chen Xin still remembers that a colleague
of his mother was from the Northeast because he met the city at school. The
companies that hired workers were attracted by the beautiful scenery of
Dongting Lake and Yueyang Tower described in the poems and came to this city.
But no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it cannot be eaten as a meal, let
alone burnt.
Before the disaster, the dense vegetation and forests of the city could be cut
down for firewood, but after the disaster of the end, there was not much to
burn on the surface.
In addition, there are no coal resources within the city, and all coal depends
on being transported by railway. Once railway transportation is interrupted,
the city's coal supply will be cut off...
The consequences can be imagined by gamers who have played the ice age. In the
case of minus 70 degrees, there will be a large number of frostbite and
severely ill patients requiring amputation in two days. Some people will be
frozen to death.
Underground shelters can certainly play a role in preventing cold and warmth,
blocking part of the intrusion of cold, but in addition to heating, most of
the coal transported into the city is transported to power plants for power
generation.
This is not the eighteenth century in the game. At that time, human beings did
not use electricity on a large scale. The lack of electricity will not have
any impact on life. But for modern humans, the absence of electricity is the
same as the absence of coal in the steam age. , All production and life will
be affected or even stagnated.
Especially now that people live in underground shelters, where ventilation,
heating, lighting, cooking, boiling water... It can be said that all aspects
of life are extremely dependent on power supply, and large shelters require
electricity to maintain oxygen generation equipment. And planting operations.
It can be said that once the external supply of coal resources is interrupted,
relying on the city’s existing coal reserves, the temporary emergency may be
able to support a few days, but if the time is long and a power outage crisis
is triggered, the city will appear in less than three days. The crisis of the
death of a large number of people in the shelter.
For Chen Xin, after the nuclear battery was manufactured through the system,
he has now got rid of the trouble of electricity. After all, no matter how
high the energy consumption of his refuge is, it cannot reach the exaggerated
point of 150KW. He only needs to Connecting a nuclear battery in the power
distribution room of the refuge can guarantee the electricity demand of the
whole refuge.
But Chen Xin does not feel that other people are the same as himself just
because there is no security threat in his current living environment.
The smooth life in the urban area is actually like a fragile soap bubble or a
castle on the beach. It looks really beautiful, but a big wave hits and any
crisis may destroy it.
Chen Xin only hopes that he is unreasonably worried, and that the city
government has enough capacity to deal with the crisis.
Otherwise, like this terrorist attack, if the terrorists are not going to
attack the shelter, but use the gunpowder used for suicide attacks to destroy
the railway ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ I am afraid the city at this moment The
district has become messy.
Thinking of this, Chen Xin's expression changed abruptly, and he stood up
awkwardly, and the worries in his heart became stronger and stronger.
However, he sat down again after thinking about it. After all, this was a
problem he could think of, and he didn't believe that people in the city could
not think of it.
Moreover, railway transportation is the top priority for this city and even
this province, especially the materials transported from Hubei province into
this province must pass through this city. If someone destroys the railway, it
will be a nightmare.
Therefore, Chen Xin felt that the municipal government, and even the
provincial government, should have taken precautions against such things, and
it would not be easy for people to damage the railway.
And it doesn’t make much sense to simply blow up the railroad tracks. It’s
nothing more than a delay of a few hours for workers to replace the damaged
rails and sleepers. At the level of modern industrial infrastructure, it may
take a while to rebuild a railway, but if Just repairing a small section of
damaged rails, it really takes less than a few hours.
It's just that Chen Xin was still a little worried, so he left the room to
find Ding Ning, and told her about his worry.
"So Axin, do you think those terrorists might damage the railway and threaten
the safety of the city and the railway transportation lines of the whole
province?" Ding Ning understood what Chen Xin meant, but the expression on his
face was much more serious than Chen Xin. Had to repeatedly confirm with Chen
Xin.
Chen Xin also said seriously to Ding Ning with a serious attitude: "Regardless
of whether they are aware of the problem or not, since we have discovered the
problem, it is better to inform your dad, otherwise, in case something really
goes wrong, the matter will be serious. ."
When Chen Xin said this, Ding Ning also nodded: "Then I will contact my dad
immediately."
