It took more than a week for the flood to drain away this time. Looking at the messy land, everyone could only put away their tears and fight for survival.

Under the official organization, various projects were restarted, livelihood facilities everywhere were restored, and power plants restarted generating electricity. The whole city soon became orderly, as if nothing had happened.

Time soon came to October, and Li Mu had been here for a year. During this year, he had experienced a lot and had a lot of emotions.

Fortunately, this year went very smoothly, with sufficient material reserves, a safe base, and the company of fans, so I lived a very comfortable life.

I just don’t know what will happen in the next two years!

With these thoughts in his mind, he took Jiang Hui's hand and rubbed it gently.

Jiang Hui's face turned red and she gave Li Mu a look: "You are getting thicker and thicker. Aren't you afraid that Qing Ning will get jealous when you see her?"

Li Mu smiled evilly and said, "Qing Ning said she doesn't care and wants to recognize you as her sister."

Jiang Hui glared at him: "She doesn't care, but I still care! She was obviously the last one to come, but she came so quickly..."

Li Mu said: "Who made you the squad leader! With such a cold impression, the filter is too heavy, who dares to touch you easily."

Jiang Hui rolled her eyes at him and said, "Then what are you doing now! Didn't you say that I'm too aloof and cold to touch you easily?"

Li Mu said: "That was my idea before, but now I have more contact with you. I found that Huihui is quite gentle and cheerful in private, just like the sister next door, so the filter naturally disappeared."

Jiang Hui snorted: "These are all the reasons you gave yourself. From my point of view, you are just a playboy."

Li Mu said: "I was really careless. I ate the food in the bowl and looked at the food in the pot. I failed Huihui's wholeheartedness."

Jiang Huidao: "Then what do you want to do now?"

Li Mu said: "Look at this world, it's already like this, and it will be even more difficult in the future. Maybe one day, the whole world will be destroyed."

As he spoke, he stretched out a hand to hold Jiang Hui in his arms, hugged her and said softly: "In today's environment, no one knows when disaster will strike? No one knows whether the world will be destroyed? When will it be destroyed?

?”

"Life is short, why not just follow your own will and enjoy life happily! If you have to dwell on these things, you will only make yourself miserable."

Jiang Hui glared at him: "The reason is so high-sounding, you just want to bother..."

Li Mu said: "Yes, I just want to play tricks. I want both you and Qing Ning, and I won't give up on anyone. This is what I mean."

Jiang Hui was not angry. For some reason, when she heard that Li Mu cared about her so much and said such tough words, she felt a little happy in her heart.

After all, she was a step too late, allowing Qing Ning and Li Mu to get together earlier. If Li Mu really had to choose one, she had no confidence in herself. Although she thought she was very beautiful, Qing Ning was also a perfect beauty.

Even though she and Li Mu had known each other earlier, and even had a crush on her during school. But, after all, it was in the past, and Qing Ning was gentle, clingy, and considerate, and was better than her in this aspect.

In troubled times, Li Mu was the most suitable partner, both emotionally and intellectually, and she could not give up. She could only glare at Li Mu, and just snuggled into his arms without saying a word.

…

Time passed quickly, and a month passed in the blink of an eye, and another heavy rain came. This time the rain was completely different from the last time, but with preparation, everyone managed to survive despite causing a lot of losses.

Seeing the flood gradually receding, the temperature gradually began to rise under the watchful eyes of everyone, forty degrees... forty-five degrees... fifty degrees, fifty-one degrees, fifty-two degrees...

That evening, Jiang Hui came over with a happy face.

"Li Mu, the temperature is not rising! The weather forecast just broadcast said that the temperature tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will only be 52 degrees."

Li Mu was stunned. Generally, after it rains, the dropped temperature will quickly recover. What was the temperature before the rain? After the rain, it will return to the corresponding temperature, or even higher.

It is quite rare for the temperature to stop rising during this rapid temperature recovery stage.

"real?"

Jiang Hui said happily: "Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, just look at the news. This weather forecast may have made the headlines now."

Li Mu said: "This is good news."

Jiang Hui sighed: "It would be great if the temperature could remain within this range and not rise again."

Her words reminded Li Mu of a possibility, and he said, "It's not impossible that the temperature will stop rising."

Jiang Hui was surprised: "Why?"

Li Mu said: "Don't you think that seasonal changes still have an impact on the temperature?"

Jiang Hui suddenly realized: "Yes! According to the usual practice in previous years, it has already entered winter, and the temperature has begun to drop significantly. However, the weather is too hot, the sun is scorching, and the ground is steaming. No one will associate it with winter.

.”

Jiang Hui thought for a while and agreed with Li Mu's point of view: "It is most likely the reason. The arrival of winter has a certain impact on the temperature."

He said with a face of joy: "So, the weather has really cooled down."

Li Muchao: "The possibility is very high. However, according to this rule, at most this winter, the temperature will remain at more than 50 degrees. In other seasons, especially in summer, the temperature will still reach a high temperature of more than 60 degrees, or even

higher."

Jiang Huidao: "It's a good thing that the temperature can drop for a while. As for other seasons, let's take it one step at a time. If we persevere this year and gain experience next year, maybe the situation will be better. Don't you think so?"

Li Mu was silent for a moment and did not answer.

Jiang Hui wondered: "What's wrong? What I said is wrong? I have gained experience this year. As long as the temperature does not continue to rise next year, the situation will definitely be better than this year."

Li Mu spoke softly: "What you said makes sense. Considering the situation, with this year's experience, next year will be better."

At this point, he said in a serious tone: "But there is another more important factor that has been ignored!"

Jiang Hui said: "What factors?"

Li Muchao: "This year, there have been high temperatures and floods, which have made agricultural production impossible and most of the crops have failed..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Hui's eyes suddenly widened: "You mean food, food shortage..."

Li Mu nodded: "Food is the most important thing for the people, and this year basically means there will be no harvest. With the official's relatively strong family background, they have finally not had to worry about food, but in the future..."

Jiang Hui said in a low tone: "The grain harvest has failed. When the reserve grain is used up, there will be... no food!"

Then he looked at Li Mu: "Then next year...is there still hope for mankind?"

Li Mu patted her hand, took her into his arms, and whispered: "Don't worry too much, look at how much supplies and food were transported to the west last year, and how many people moved there. There are also some high-altitude mountains, too.

Large-scale grain warehouses and material bases have been built. Next year, there should not be a large-scale lack of food to eat."

Jiang Hui was in a better mood: "What about next year? The temperature has been so high and we can't grow food. What will we do in the future?"

Li Muchao: "Actually, the officials have been making preparations for a long time. If you look at the news reports, the officials have sent out a large number of fishing teams to fish in various places. There are also so many dead fish floating in the sea that have also been collected. It is estimated that

It’s made into dried fish and salted fish that can be stored for a long time.”

Jiang Huidao: "I have also seen news like this. It is said that dead fish in rivers and lakes on land are also specially collected by officials."

Li Mu nodded: "Yes! The official has been considering everyone's food problem."

"You should have heard of the several mega-projects launched last year. Except for the cave dwelling project that houses hundreds of millions of people, the others are all aimed at solving the food problem."

"For example, super vegetable greenhouses that are resistant to high temperatures and can adjust the temperature inside have blossomed in many high-altitude areas; there are also underground cultivation technologies, indoor soilless cultivation technologies... all of which have launched a large number of construction projects."

Jiang Hui nodded: "But compared to the country's population, these are still a drop in the bucket."

Li Muchao: "That can only depend on the progress of technology. It is said that the government has removed a large number of top scientists and united with several major scientific and technological countries to select and cultivate various plants that are resistant to high temperatures and floods. As long as they can be cultivated on a large scale,

The problem of planting and eating will be solved.”

Jiang Hui sighed: "I hope so!"

Seeing her worried look, he held her arms tightly and comforted her: "Don't worry, there will be a way to reach the mountain. Human civilization has developed to this point, and it is not so fragile."

"Besides, I'm here! I won't let you be wronged."

Jiang Hui nodded, hugged Li Mu with her backhand, and snuggled into his arms.

After having dinner together and reading for a while, Li Mu looked at the time and said, "Get some rest!"

Jiang Hui looked around and whispered: "Where's Qing Ning!"

Li Mu said: "What, you still want to be with her?"

Jiang Hui's face turned red and she pinched Li Mu: "Bad guy..."

Li Mu picked her up and walked to the bedroom.

"Then I'll show you the bad stuff!"

…

Time flies, and it is a new year. In order to cope with the food crisis, the government has obviously limited the supply of food on the market. Currently, we can only maintain simple food and clothing.

In March, the temperature really started to rise, and high temperatures of 57 to 8 degrees became the norm.

The problem of food has become more prominent, and the city has no choice. In order to cope with the crisis, each city has set a fixed quota for food.

After another heavy rain, the weather has returned to refreshing, and some shopping malls are open, but they are usually on the fifth floor and above of the shopping mall. They sell clothes, electronic products, and various industrial products... After all, high temperatures can

The biggest impact is on agriculture. It has little impact on industrial production. Many electronic products are extremely cheap.

Although major domestic private enterprises have suffered heavy losses and many have gone bankrupt and reorganized, they are still able to survive.

Li Mu walked around and found that most of the products sold were industrial electronic products... In terms of daily necessities, the only open supplies were salt, industrial synthetic food, etc...

Li Mu took a piece of industrial synthetic food and tasted it. The taste was a bit strange. After all, it was not grown naturally but was synthesized using industrial means.

According to the explanation, this kind of industrially synthesized food does not do much harm to the body as long as you don't eat too much and treat it as a staple food. Of course, it doesn't have much nutrition. The biggest advantage is that it can fill your stomach, and the price is not cheap.
