Natural Disaster Apocalypse

Chapter 1:

There was a somewhat ear-piercing sound, and a rolling shutter door was slowly lowering. Mu Nan watched the rolling shutter door fall to the ground from the rearview mirror of the pickup truck, then pushed the accelerator, and drove away with an empty pickup truck. The warehouse was also empty, and the goods that were originally delivered to the warehouse were all packed into his small space by Mu Nan under the cover of a truck.

Mu Nan has a secret. This secret was discovered when he was sixteen years old. He has a space, a world that suddenly appeared to him, like another world that exists in the dimension of his mind. He still doesn't know how big the space is, but no matter how many things he puts, the space is never full, but apart from this storage function, his space can't hold any living things.

The sudden extra space made Mu Nan flustered and excited for a while. This kind of existence beyond scientific cognition is undoubtedly novel and full of mystery to a young man who is establishing a worldview. I feel that among all living beings, I am very different.

However, the desire to explore and excitement quickly subsided, because Mu Nan found that having such a seemingly mysterious space didn't seem to change his life much, except for storing Things are a little more convenient. Besides, based on the premise of being public and law-abiding, he can't use this space to bring himself any financial benefits.

So slowly, Mu Nan let go of the matter of space, occasionally secretly using space to bring a little convenience to life, and at other times, how he should live or how to live.

Until the year Mu Nan graduated from university, his plans for the future of his life were completely shattered by natural disasters one after another, and this seemingly useless space on weekdays became the greatest vitality he had.

At the beginning, no one thought that a rainstorm and a smog would reshuffle the whole world. Everyone knows that the air quality is getting worse and worse these years. Everyone shouts the slogan of protecting the environment and protecting the earth. , but everyone is also wasting various resources.

The smog came suddenly, except for more and more people wearing masks on the street, everyone's life was not affected much. Later, more and more people got sick, coughing and fever, red and swollen skin, bloodshot eyes, and finally The lungs swelled and it was difficult to breathe until death.

More and more people are dying from the same symptoms, not only in China, but also in almost all countries where smog has started. Even if we know that the root of this epidemic is smog, but manpower can be invested in it, except for constant Little can be done to save the lives that are dying. The infection rate of lung swelling caused by smog is not high, but the death rate is extremely high. This can be regarded as the beginning of a huge death chapter for the end of the world.

There are too many people who are sick, so many that the entire medical system directly collapses. There is no support from various countries and cities, because they are all too busy to take care of themselves. That chaos is just the beginning of the end of the world.

At that time, Mu Nan never thought that the world would be completely chaotic one day. He believed in the power of the country, and he also believed in the daily cheering calls on TV and the Internet. The disaster will always pass. The most important thing is that he, who was alone, did not deeply understand the pain of the lost relatives in this disaster, even though these disasters were very close to him, they were still far away from him.

Mu Nan is a full-time painter. Because he likes to draw, he has decided on his future life direction since high school. In terms of painting, Mu Nan does have a very good talent. , Turned to a career that could afford his livelihood. Before college, he even sold a figure drawing for 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, which was considered a considerable profit in their circle of painters.

It is precisely because of his occupation with the property of living in a house that he was not affected much even if he stayed behind closed doors during the entire smog. It is also because of this occupation that he has long been used to cooking some delicious food The things he wants are stored in his space, so that he can take them whenever he wants. His space is a constant existence, what things look like when they are put in, and what they are still like when they are taken out, after several years of accumulation, the amount of food in Mu Nan's space is quite considerable, because he never felt the crisis of food at the beginning , which led to Mu Nan's death from the killing intent brought by the food.

After the smog in the previous life gradually dissipated, people's lives seemed to be slowly returning to normal. Many survivors regarded the depressing and death-surrounded rest of their lives as a chat after dinner, but they didn't want to, the more difficult The future is coming towards mankind.

Not long after the smog dissipated, the weather became extremely hot. Even due to the terrain, the hottest place in the country has never been higher than 50 degrees, but this summer, the temperature has reached the highest ever in the world, even as high as 50 degrees. Nine degrees. What is the concept of fifty-nine degrees? The highest temperature in the African desert is only fifty-five degrees. In places where humans live, the highest temperature does not exceed forty-five degrees.

The four seasons in their country are very distinct, but this year, until December, the high temperature remained high, and the number of people who died from the heat was no less than that of those who died of illness in the smog. People have realized at this time, maybe this time, the end is really coming.

Later, the government of each region was directly controlled by the military, who counted the number of people and issued new ID cards. Even if the people followed the country's footsteps, they still couldn't withstand the continuous advent of natural disasters. The two words are no longer hope, but deeper, unknown despair.

Mu Nan who has space is much better than many people. No matter what the situation is, he can at least have food to fill his stomach. It is a pity that he has warded off natural disasters, but he has not resisted man-made disasters. Just because of a moment of soft-heartedness, he gave a skinny little girl a little cornbread, which caused her death. At that time, the country was leading the masses to rebuild their homes. Although it cannot be said that everyone can have enough to eat, there was no famine to the point of killing people for a little food. Otherwise, no matter how naive Mu Nan was, he would not have softened his heart at that moment.

Looking back on the feeling before he died, Mu Nan would still feel a dull pain where he was stabbed at the beginning. He had space, but he died so aggrieved in the end.

When she opened her eyes again, Mu Nan was reborn and returned to three months before the end of the world.

After being reborn, Mu Nan had to reflect on that short life, because he had a life-saving trump card that no one else had. Facing such an apocalyptic world, even though he was cautious, he also felt an undetectable contempt in his heart. Food is not difficult , so he failed to feel the cruelty of the end times more intuitively and deeply than others.

Whether it is death or hunger, even though he is in it, he has never personally experienced it. There is an essential difference between a doomsday struggle with confidence in his heart and a doomsday struggle without confidence. Even though his parents died early, the environment he lives in has always been very simple , and faced the end of the world directly before they had time to experience a lot of ups and downs in society.

Thinking of all the things in her previous life, Mu Nan didn't feel that she had anything to regret, but there were some regrets after all.

After returning the truck, on the way back, Mu Nan packed several servings of pork rib powder. This is an old shop that has been around for decades, and it still retains its original taste. When the smog cleared, this shop never opened again. Passed through the door, so Mu Nan would buy a lot every time he passed by, and he had already stocked up a lot in the space, but in the future, he would eat less and less.

Mu Nan lives in an old house now, and it was also the first group of civilian houses with elevators built in the city planning. He lives on the seventeenth floor, the highest is twenty-three, and the floors are not bad. He has lived here since he was a child, but now he is the only one left in the family of three.

Looking at the group photo of his parents with a lot of dust on the wall, Mu Nan sometimes thinks that maybe it is luck that his parents passed away early, at least they have not been tortured by the end of the world.

Putting down his backpack, Mu Nan took a set of clean clothes and took a shower, washing away the fatigue and dust from a day of traveling outside, and after wiping his hair until it was half-dry, he sat down to eat refreshed. The rice was cooked by himself, and the dishes were bought outside before, and he secretly put them into the space, and now they are still steaming when they are taken out.

Mu Nan doesn't know how to cook. Before the apocalypse, he lived on takeaway food. After the apocalypse, he didn't have the conditions to cook. But since his rebirth, he has been good at cooking. As long as he is at home, he will start cooking all kinds of dishes and cook them well. Just put it in the space, there should be no conditions to fire for a long time in the future, so before that, Mu Nan should store more ready-made food.

It has been three months since Mu Nan was reborn. He has already hoarded those necessities for survival. He even bought some lethal weapons at a high price for safety. Naturally, don’t think about pistols. He has the time and space to smuggle in, but without that channel, even if he goes abroad, he can’t just buy it casually. At present, Mu Nan is already very content. At least this time, he won’t be stuck in the room again. , hit the knife without the power to fight back.
