The people in the four cars were obviously unwilling to be fooled like this,
and after reacting, they immediately chased up.
However, not all four of them caught up, and one car remained in place,
presumably trying to get the return cabin away.
Chen Xin saw the chaser behind him through the drone shot, but he didn't care
too much. If it was just this level of chasing, his car would not be afraid of
anyone.
"Go and ask if everything has been brought up, and if there is nothing left,
we will leave." Chen Xin looked at the astronaut who was aside and motioned to
him to ask Zhang Chengguang if there was anything else left, but mainly Let's
take a look at Zhang Chengguang's state. Chen Xin saw him take off his
protective clothing just now.
The astronaut nodded and left, while Chen Xin controlled the car to move
forward. Although the three cars behind followed closely, they could not catch
up with Chen Xin.
The reason why he didn't drive away at high speed was because he was worried
that Zhang Chengguang had left something else.
If there is anything to go back to get, then Chen Xin will rudely crash all
the three chased cars here, then drive back to solve the last car, and then
get the things.
The reason why he didn't do this just now was just because Zhang Chengguang
was not in the car, and if Chen Xin hit someone, he would have lost a lot of
danger if he encountered it.
"Old Zhang said that the data storage was taken up. Although the things in the
return capsule were valuable, they were of no use to ordinary people." The
astronauts had seen the data storage brought back by Zhang Chengguang before
returning to explain the situation to Chen Xin. In addition, Zhang took the
self-defense pistol prepared for us in the return cabin. He said that when you
send us to the place, the pistol can be left to you."
For the astronauts, a pistol is nothing, and it is not a big deal to give Chen
Xin as a reward.
If it were before the disaster, of course they would not have done this, but
after experiencing what was just now, Zhang Chengguang obviously had a clear
understanding of the current situation and environment. He exchanged a pistol
for Chen Xin’s help, which in his opinion is very A good deal.
Chen Xin didn't care about it. He just nodded, speeded up and drove off the
three cars behind him, then re-adjusted his direction on the map and drove
towards Chibi City according to the original plan.
————————————————
After experiencing such a small crisis, Chen Xin and the three astronauts
became acquainted, and they also knew the names of the other two astronauts
besides Zhang Chengguang, Zhao Wu and Zhang Yao.
Parked the car to the side of the road, Chen Xin returned to the living cabin,
and the six data memories that Zhang Chengguang removed from the return cabin
were placed on the table in front of him.
Looking at these six memories that look like black bricks, Chen Xin did not
show too much curiosity. He just greeted Zhang Chengguang and the other two
astronauts and asked, "It’s almost time for lunch, you want to eat. What to
order?"
When Chen Xin said to eat, the expressions on the faces of the three
astronauts became vivid.
For most of the past six months, what they have eaten in the sky is space
food. Although the astronauts are treated well, the food they eat can be said
to be nutritious and taste good. There are even a variety of dishes to choose
from. , But they still miss the food on the ground even more.
It’s just that Chen Xin looked at their vivid expressions, but poured cold
water on them: “I bring a lot of food, including canned food and refuge food,
and some energy bars. of."
"Canned food, energy bars?" The three astronauts looked at each other, and
finally Zhang Chengguang asked, "Is there a shortage of supplies to such an
extent now? Does the country have emergency reserves, meat and vegetables? How
come it has only The point of canned food and energy bars?"
"National emergency reserve? I don't know this. The city I'm in may not be
used." Chen Xin made a shrug and took out a refuge from the cupboard in the
puzzled eyes of the three astronauts. The food was put on the table: "This is
a standard refuge food, which contains rice from the reserve before the
disaster, rat meat and yellow mealworms raised after the disaster, mushrooms
from the underground greenhouse, and a small amount of fresh vegetables. .
Such a standard refuge food is all the food that the survivors in the current
refuge can get in one day. The two energy bars inside can only be obtained by
people who go out to work, and ordinary people only have one. . "
The situation introduced by Chen Xin obviously shocked the three astronauts
who had just landed, but it is no wonder that when they went to heaven, the
disaster hadn't really come, and it could be said that everything was normal
in terms of supplies.
And when they were in the sky, they also ate standard astronaut supplies.
Although they had some estimates of the conditions on the surface, they did
not expect the conditions to become so difficult.
"Let's eat this, this should be enough for the three of us." Zhang Chengguang
picked up the refuge food on the table and decided that the three of them
would eat this refuge food, which is also considered to adapt to the current
life of shortage of supplies in advance.
Chen Xin smiled, waved his hand, and took out dehydrated vegetables, rice, and
a canned luncheon meat from the cupboard: "Although the official refuge does
eat the one in your hand, I still have something else. Yes, there is really no
fruit, but there are some dehydrated vegetables and rice. Canned food is
luncheon meat. I hope you don’t dislike it."
With that said, Chen Xin set up a pot on the induction cooker in Liulitai,
ready to cook lunch.
"This... really cost you money!" Zhang Chengguang looked at the food Chen Xin
brought out, and he could only say a few words like this.
After all, if what Chen Xin said is true, then the food he is taking out now
can be regarded as a very rich hospitality in this world.
But this also made the three astronauts deeply worried about the current
status of Yan Country.
————————————————
After lunch, Chen Xin still drove through the city of Chibi according to the
original plan. Not surprisingly, he also found the refuge in the city of
Chibi, but whether it was Chen Xin or the three astronauts in the car , There
is no idea to stop and communicate with the official refuge in Chibi City.
Chen Xin did not need to stop for supplies because he had sufficient supplies,
while the three astronauts felt that the data they carried was too important.
It is better to go to the three towns than to waste time in such a county-
level city. Much stronger.
After all, Chibi City is only a county-level city. Even if they contact the
local county government and the official refuge, the help they can get is very
limited. At most, they can add some supplies or send a few police or armed
police to guard them.
But for Chen Xin and the three astronauts, this is not necessary and
meaningless.
Instead of attracting unnecessary attention just to change a few people to
help, it would be safer to go directly to the three towns.
So they quickly passed through the city of Chibi and drove along a road where
no road traces were visible.
Zhang Chengguang, who was sitting in the passenger car, looked at the darkness
outside the car window and asked Chen Xin: "Are you living in such an
environment for more than half a year?"
"Not all. It was good at the beginning. In the first month, because the
meteorite just hit, there were fires everywhere, and I couldn't get out, so I
just stayed in the refuge. Apart from being a little bit tough, it was fine."
While driving the car, Chen Xin was chatting with Zhang Chengguang. He found
that Zhang Chengguang was actually a very talkative person: "After the first
month passed, the temperature was not very low. At that time, the environment
was not as bad as it is now. So most people take advantage of this time to
come out to collect materials for exchange.
However, the network has been disconnected and the mobile phone cannot be
connected. Only some official wired phones can be used. It is difficult to
obtain information in other places. I don't know the situation in other
places. However, the city government where I live can still guarantee
supplies. Supply, although life is a bit bitter, but it is still alive, there
is no shortage of food and clothing. "
"It sounds pretty good?" Zhang Chengguang couldn't help showing a little
surprised expression. According to Chen Xin, the situation was indeed pretty
good.
Chen Xin also nodded and affirmed his words: "The first few months are indeed
pretty passable, basically the same life as in the 70s and 80s or earlier, and
the food is guaranteed. Overall it is really good. .
However, after the temperature dropped, it was more difficult. UU reading
www.uukanshu.com has a low temperature of tens of degrees below zero. Unless
you have enough warm clothing or protective equipment, people will freeze in
less than half an hour outside. .
Although the underground shelter can withstand part of the cold, it can still
kill people without heating. In the low temperature environment, whether it is
crop growth or animal breeding, it has been greatly affected. The greenhouse
of a friend of mine almost completely destroyed. "
"Cold, dark..." Zhang Chengguang's mood became a little complicated and
uncomfortable, and the self-blame in his heart surged again. If their mission
hadn't failed in the first place, maybe there would be no suffering.
Chen Xin seemed to have seen his thoughts and said to him: "Don't take the
responsibility too much on yourself. You have fulfilled your responsibilities
and done what you can do. As for the way you are now, although No one thinks
about it, but now that things have become like this, let’s look forward!
Trying to live and live the present day is the most important thing."
"Thank you!" After being comforted by Chen Xin, Zhang Chengguang smiled at
him, but still couldn't get past this hurdle in his heart.
How could this kind of thing be able to pass by a few words of comfort? Maybe
just wait for Zhang Chengguang to figure it out.
Chen Xin did not continue to struggle, and continued to drive the car along
the dark "road" that could not discern the direction.
