Endless gray and black clouds completely enveloped the sky.
There are no stars, no moon.
All light is absorbed and blocked by this thick layer of clouds.
Without sunlight, the temperature on the sea surface plummeted in just a few days.
The global temperature has been continuing to drop.
And these abandoned people who are still alive in the southern hemisphere rely on this never-ending sunlight to maintain their last glimmer of hope.
Fang Yu doesn't know what other places are like.
But he knew that in this place, in this sea, if there were other survivors, in the life that had already lost darkness, due to the tidal waves caused by the volcanic eruption, and the cloud cover formed by the volcanic ash, they
The chance of surviving has dropped again. In this darkness, it is tantamount to falling into hell prematurely.
It was pitch black on the sea. In this almost black hole-like space, there was only one window floating in the air, shining a little yellow light outside.
Following the light, he climbed into the window and saw that nine people from Fang Yu were gathered together in the room.
Without sunlight, solar power supply has been greatly affected.
They are not sure how long it will take for the volcanic ash cloud to dissipate.
In addition, particulate matter from various volcanic eruptions floating in the air forced them to stay in the room all the time and rely on oxygen-generating air conditioners to filter toxic substances and particles in the air.
The environment outside is a bit harsh.
The filter module of the air conditioner needs to be cleaned almost every two hours, otherwise the accumulated dust will completely block the entire pipe.
Including all food from outside, they can only keep it in the room.
The fishing boat's galley was restored to use.
Because under such circumstances, they simply cannot cook in the open.
The hull and deck of the fishing boat are already covered with ash.
The dust in the air meant that even if Fang Yu and others went out wearing masks, just walking around would cause a layer of dust to settle on the masks.
Fang Yu and Wu Renyao had to live in a room with Chen Dayong's family.
The floor was cleared and the room was completely transformed into a big shop.
In order to save electricity.
Everyone would light up the lights in the big room during what was supposed to be day time, and then Yuan Yi and Yuan Xin would be in this room, reading, playing cards, and chatting by the lights in the room.
In this almost doomsday situation, Fang Yu found that the relationship between them became closer.
Even Yuan Yi seemed to have suddenly looked away because of this accident.
How should I put it, maybe this is fighting fire with fire~
During this dark time, the nine of them gathered in the room, perhaps feeling the doomsday atmosphere. At this time, everyone seemed to be venting their emotions, each calmly spending their lives in this yellow
Share under the light.
It feels like group therapy for traumatized people.
Everyone shares their own story and their own insights.
Here Wu Renyao fully confessed his feelings to Yuan Yi, and it was only at this time that Yuan Yi discovered it.
It turned out that this Huang Mao was actually my classmate in high school, and he had been secretly in love with me for three years, and even went on this ship for the sake of her pregnant self.
She originally thought that she would no longer believe in love.
After all, in such a world, there really was no chance for her to fantasize.
Not to mention that she had a miscarriage just a few days in advance, witnessing the passing of a period of life.
But in fact, when she heard Wu Renyao's dialogue, she found that she still felt a little throbbing.
In addition, everyone else talked about their own experiences one by one and shared them with each other.
It was precisely this atmosphere that made the nine people in the room suddenly feel that even if it was really the end of the world now and everyone would die tomorrow, there would be no regrets.
The closer people are to the abyss, the more they feel the warmth, and the more precious they are.
After sharing it that night, everyone's spirits seemed to be connected, and it became everyone's greatest spiritual support.
Even though there is dust everywhere outside and the sky is covered with thick volcanic ash, whenever the lights in the room turn on, everyone's face can always release a smile from the heart.
Unknowingly, when they woke up again on the ninth day, they were surprised to find that a ray of sunlight filtered through the window.
The clouds have parted!
These volcanic ash floated in the sky for nine days, allowing Fang Yu and others to spend nine days of darkness before they dispersed.
Even Fang Yu, who had always been sure that the clouds would dissipate.
After seeing the clouds completely disperse, I felt truly relieved.
Soon, everyone was awakened by the sunshine.
Everyone who wakes up and looks at the sunshine outside the window has a feeling of disbelief.
It wasn't until everyone woke up that everyone put on masks and thick clothes and walked out of the room cautiously.
On the deck, there was a thick layer of gray floating everywhere.
The ash has been soaked in sea water and formed into clods of soil, firmly attached to the deck.
The walls are also covered with dirt.
It only lasted nine days, but the entire ship seemed to have passed through decades.
However, no one noticed this at this time. Instead, they stood on the deck and looked at the sun in the sky, feeling indescribable joy in their hearts.
sun!
This is the sun!
Accompanying human beings from birth to present existence!
Before, Chen Dayong and the others actually had no intuitive feeling that the sun would be destroyed.
As abandoned people, they will inevitably have no resentment towards the Wanderers.
In fact, they have always believed in their hearts that the sun will not be destroyed. These are just speculations of the wandering faction.
Because of their plans, they had to become outcasts.
Moreover, the Blue Star stopped rotating, and from that day on, the sun never set again.
From the beginning of resentment against the Wanderers, to resentment against the overall fate of mankind, to resentment against the sun that never sets.
Even Chen Dayong said more than once that if the sun is going to be destroyed, it is better to destroy it as soon as possible.
Until this time.
After nine days and more than two hundred hours of darkness.
They discovered for the first time that the sun was so important to them!
It was just nine days of darkness, and they instantly felt how dark life would be without the sun.
For the first time, they truly felt how desperate it would be for mankind if the sun was really destroyed!
Without the sun, there is eternal darkness.
This means that the despair they feel will continue to increase exponentially in these nine days.
Just thinking about such emotions makes me feel like I'm going to die.
It turns out that the sun is really so important to us!
Feeling the large swath of sunlight that the sun in the sky was still spreading selflessly, everyone, including Fang Yu, stood on the deck and kept breathing, as if they wanted to suck all the light into their lungs, spread it throughout their bodies, and spread it throughout their bodies.
The darkness accumulated in these nine days is completely eliminated from the body.
