Chapter 290: The Fourteenth Quest Borrell Wants to Live Forever 19
Uh-huh, uh-huh, it looks like we got off that bus.
Lu Renbing was asked to tell about his experience along the way. Lu Renbing did not hide it, gave a brief explanation of what happened on the train, and said how his group came all the way from the North Pole.
The other party asked Lu Renbing what the next arrangements were. Originally, Lu Renbing planned to settle in a mountainous area in southern China. However, it seems that the people here in Huaxia do not seem to be particularly welcoming to him, a foreign devil.
If you think about it, you also know how much the Chinese people in this era look down on foreign devils. Tenai Naidi, if you don't sell our tickets, then don't you want us to hang them all up. Okay now, our vitality is badly damaged, and your side is about to be wiped out.
In two words, it is "deserved!" "In this era, the resources of the whole country are scarce, and the idea of xenophobia is even more incomprehensible. Lu Renbing knew with his brain that it was not easy to mix up here.
So he still decided to stay away from here, so he asked about the current world situation, and indicated that he would not stay in Huaxia and planned to go all the way west.
After the other party knew that Lu Renbing and the others did not plan to stay in Huaxia, they all showed relaxed expressions. It seems that the other party is also afraid that these people will strongly ask to stay and bring unnecessary trouble.
It stands to reason that we don't know how long the disaster will last, and when mankind is on the verge of extinction, we should put aside our past suspicions and work together. But the birdmen in other countries really broke the hearts of our Chinese people, no matter if you die, the farther you go, the better, is the main theme of this era.
However, out of humanitarianism, the three of them still showed Lu Renbing the world situation. Because Huaxia's satellite communications have not been interrupted. So through the computer, Lu Renbing clearly saw that most of the world is under ice. Land below 200 meters above sea level is inundated with flooding caused by sudden climate change, and then ice.
Even the sea water in the equatorial region has been covered with ice, but it seems that the water at the equator is thawing recently. All in all, the surviving humans can only barely survive on the mountain plateau.
Species are massively extinct, and until now it is not known how many species remain. Marine life has become extinct on a large scale due to the lack of oxygen and low temperatures, and the disturbance of ocean currents.
Now the Chinese are drilling holes in the ice sheets across the country, hoping to catch more food and increase the oxygen content in the seawater, so that marine life can have a chance to survive.
However, due to the mass death of green vegetation and the disappearance of tropical rainforests, the carbon and oxygen cycle on the earth has been broken. Atmospheric oxygen levels are also changing. No one knows how long it will last.
Lu Renbing, who knows these news, is not sad, anyway, he can live as long as he wants. Lu Renbing sold all the materials he was carrying to Huaguo, and then replaced them with a photoelectric ice truck. This car is a means of transportation that the state urgently summoned scientists and engineers to develop after the ice age.
This type of vehicle is available in a variety of models and specifications depending on the application. Lu Renbing bought a kind of RV with retracted wheels that can be used to drive on water using air cushions or transformed into an ice jet sled with foldable ultra-thin solar panels on the roof.
The interior of the car is very spacious, the load capacity can reach 50 tons, and it can travel 500 kilometers on a single charge, of course, you can also use fuel and gas, as long as you can find it.
In this era, although currency is meaningless, gold is still valuable, meat and fur, metal products, and weapons are all valuable. The things that Lu Renbing brought back were more than enough for a car plus some food supplies.
After getting the car, Lu Renbing put down the two young Evenks and led his team all the way to the west. Climate change, even the desert area is covered with ice and snow, which has given Lu Renbing a lot of convenience.
Lu Renbing carefully calculated that in this era, he had to go to the tropical plateau to ensure his invincible position. Even if the ice age ends, the world will enter a period of flooding, and it will be impossible to survive in the lowlands. Most of today's Europe, with the exception of the southern mountains, is buried under solid ice.
Central Africa was not very rich in resources in the original world. After thinking about it carefully for a long time, Lu Renbing still decided to go to the third brother's house for development.
The Deccan Plateau in the south of the third brother's house is not bad, and if it doesn't, it is not bad to cross the sea to Sri Lanka, which is closer to the equator. The third brother's family is rich in resources and has a superior geographical location, so it will be good to mix there in the future.
The scenery along the way is tiring. Occasionally, surviving humans can be seen, and their eyes are full of greed. It was one of the most chaotic places in the world before the cataclysm. The perennial war has made people accustomed to the life of drilling ravines. In this way, they survived quite a lot.
So the person in charge of the train said that the whole world of humanity is extinct, and it is definitely just self-perversion. The tenacity of the people living at the bottom is completely beyond the imagination of those so-called superior people.
They were already accustomed to the harsh living environment, but now the climate is even harsher. On the contrary, there are no so-called big people, and the elites are pointing fingers and brutally oppressing. Instead, they feel more at ease.
Food, clothing, they always think of a way. Those animals and humans were frozen, and they didn't disappear out of thin air. Hungry people, digging out these frozen things is enough for them to live.
However, in a world without order, the killing in this land is more bloody and the living environment is more jungle-like. Fortunately, Lu Renbing, they are not good at stubble. Finally, I got through the most dangerous section of the road and entered the South Asian Peninsula.
In the mountainous area, Lu Renbing has seen more and more survivors, which is already one of the most densely populated areas in the world. In addition, the proximity to the tropics and the high temperatures are generally high, and even in this glacial period, it is impossible to wipe out all people.
Along the way, whether it is the Pakistani country or the third brother's family, it seems that they have not lost their organization, and the existence of the government similar to the previous life is still operating. It seems that countries around the world that have experienced the Cold War era have dug a doomsday fortress to prevent nuclear war as the basic operation of each major country.
In particular, Pakistan and the third brother's family have been facing each other for many years, and they are both nuclear countries, so their combat preparedness in this regard is not much higher than that of the Chinese family. But fortunately, the snow and the industrial base limit them. Their official presence is also only symbolic. Control over the grassroots is almost gone.
Therefore, Lu Renbing was able to pass through the strongholds all the way and go all the way to the south. The third brother's family is worthy of being open. The lives of the people here are as tenacious as Xiaoqiang. Along the way, I don't know which corners can pop up a ragged person. I don't know how they spent these nearly twenty years.
