Chapter 331
"Since the acid rain season began, everything on land has been corroded by acid rain. Even clean water resources are gone. Your people fish in the sea. Are the fish safe to eat?"
The people on the convoy asked.
The young man who had sneered just now sneered: "Nonsense, otherwise we wouldn't have come all the way here! You know, acid rain could fall on the road at any time now, and we don't have as many vehicles as you do. We'd definitely get hurt if we were exposed to the outside!"
He has a bad attitude.
The man who had just asked the question had some anger on his face, but he quickly suppressed it.
Zhou Shuwan keenly grasped the key words in his words: "A long way? Is your base very far from the seaside?"
This time, it was Lao Jiao who answered first: "Yes, building a base by the sea is the most unreliable. The sea is not calm, so the bases by the sea are far away from the sea. When there is a need, we can go fishing by the sea."
Zhou Shuwan nodded and said nothing more.
Zhang Jia looked around and said to Old Jiao with a smile, "Senior Jiao, since we've met, I'd like to ask for your advice on how to survive at sea."
Lao Jiao smiled cheerfully and said, "Of course. The ocean is so vast, you can catch fish anywhere. We are willing to teach you everything we know."
There were only five or six people on their side, while Zhou Shuwan had more than forty people.
Zhang Jia and Lao Jiao sat together, talking about how to fish at sea and how to catch the most fish in the shortest time.
Qi Mingyu stared at those people intently, then looked at the people on the sea. Finally, he gently pulled Zhou Shuwan's hand and said, "Let's go over there and take a look."
"Okay!" Zhou Shuwan looked at him and nodded.
After the two walked a little further to the side, Qi Mingyu said, "There's danger."
Zhou Shuwan nodded: "I can see that too. Besides the weapons exposed outside, these people definitely have weapons hidden on their backs, waists, and legs."
Moreover, although Lao Jiao looked kind, Zhou Shuwan, who was used to the viciousness of people in the end times, still saw the calculation and viciousness that flashed across the other's face.
Not only him, but also the young men behind him had expressions of deep vigilance and impatience on their faces.
"Zhang Jia should have noticed it too," Qi Mingyu said. "They don't have as many people as us, so they don't dare to act rashly. It would be best if a conflict doesn't break out!"
The two sides are so close that casualties are inevitable if a conflict breaks out.
Zhou Shuwan looked at the fishing team at sea. Their boats were very old, just ordinary rubber boats and two assault boats.
The people on the boat were cooperating in fishing while looking over here.
Zhou Shuwan suddenly said, "You said, we have twice as many people as them. If we want to defeat them effortlessly, what should we do?"
Qi Mingyu also looked at the fishing team on the sea. After thinking for a moment, he said, "You mean, they want to tamper with the food?"
Zhou Shuwan nodded confidently, "That must be the case. It's been a long time since we inland people have seen real fresh meat. Fish is also a rare delicacy. When they catch some fresh fish and bring them ashore, and they pretend to be a little more enthusiastic and treat us to grilled fish or something, we won't refuse easily!"
Qi Mingyu seemed to be lost in thought.
"what happened?"
Qi Mingyu then said, "Didn't I tell you on the way here that I felt like I was being watched?"
Zhou Shuwan's expression froze. "You mean they're the ones monitoring us?"
Qi Mingyu shook his head: "I'm not sure! But when I think about it, the timing of these people appearing is too coincidental. It happened to be during the few days we stopped at the beach!"
"But if they were people who made a living by killing and stealing, would they have the patience to wait for us for two days?"
Qi Mingyu frowned slightly: "Yeah, we stayed here for two days before they showed up!"
The two discussed for a long time without any results, and finally Qi Mingyu said: "It's better to be cautious. Quietly warn our people."
"Ok!"
When the two of them went back over, Zhang Jia and Old Jiao were already chatting happily.
How do the people in each base survive natural disasters such as floods, high temperatures, and acid rain? What types of natural disasters will appear in the future and how can they be prevented...
I don’t know who raised the question of how a series of natural disasters were triggered.
People from both sides joined in the discussion.
Some people are superstitious and believe that according to history, the Earth will experience a mass extinction every few million years, and the creatures on Earth will undergo a major reshuffle!
Some people also believe in conspiracy theories, believing that the Earth is just as scientists say, a hell used by advanced civilizations to keep prisoners. Now that advanced civilizations are tired of it, they will use a few simple tricks to destroy the Earth...
Just then, Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu came over, so Zhang Jia asked, "Wanwan, what do you and Xiaoyu think?"
Qi Mingyu looked at Zhou Shuwan.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, the latter thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I've heard an interesting theory."
"what?"
"They say the reason Earth experiences so many natural disasters—floods, high temperatures, acid rain, and the possibility of extreme cold and polar nights in the future—is because changes have occurred in the solar system, or even the Milky Way, that we can't monitor. These changes have affected the region's revolution and rotation. The Earth has deviated from its original orbit and is flying towards the unknown universe..."
This is just like what was said in the movie "Escape from Earth". When the earth flew away from the solar system, affected by various objective factors, human beings also experienced doomsday natural disasters such as floods, blizzards, and extreme cold... and finally could only hide underground and struggle to survive.
Their current situation is so similar to that in the movie.
"Yes, Wanwan, what you said is really possible!" Zhang Jia suddenly realized.
Only when the Earth's rotation and revolution trajectories change will a series of dazzling and inexplicable natural disasters occur.
"But why?"
Someone else asked.
Zhou Shuwan shook his head: "This is just speculation I heard from some people."
In fact, she only heard this news from the base many years after the end of the world.
At that time, she could not bear the damage to her body caused by the polar night and fell seriously ill. However, she had no money to treat it, so she had to curl up in her shabby tent and wait for death.
Then I heard someone say these words outside the tent.
Her whole body was numb and painful, she was sweating profusely, and everything around her was a little blurry, but somehow, those words entered her ears very clearly.
Then, her body adapted to the polar night and gradually recovered.
Indeed, compared with other survivors around her who had suffered several years of devastation in the apocalypse, Zhou Shuwan ate, drank and slept well. The skin on her face was ivory white, shimmering with a faint luster, and her eyebrows and eyes were clear. At first glance, she was a very elegant beauty.
