For the rest of the trip, except for the occasional supply of food, Sky City went down the Yangtze River day and night.

Although the wind and snow affected the speed of travel, a week later, at noon, the spacecraft still came to the vicinity of Jiangyin. The ship had to stop.

It's not that Zhang Le wants to stop, but because, looking east and south from Jiangyin City, all the land is gone, leaving only the white water.

In terms of distance, Taihu Lake, one of China's five largest freshwater lakes, has become a part of the sea.

The weather in Jiangyin is not cold, above freezing, and it is snowing lightly. However, due to the high temperature of the ground, as soon as the snow falls to the ground, it turns into water.

The moment Zhang Le saw the empty water, his heart immediately became empty. After traveling thousands of miles from the North Pole to his hometown, he found that his hometown had become the sea. Although he had already prepared for the worst, suddenly seeing this unexpected scene still made Zhang Le unacceptable.

At this time, he suddenly remembered that he didn't have a photo of his parents. Although as long as the memories are recalled, the sound and smile are still in front of me, but the memories seem to be wearing a thin veil, and although the sound and smile are in front of me, they are vague, and they can't get closer. It's close at hand, like at the end of the world.

"I don't want to go back to Weihai. What should have happened has already happened, and if it hadn't happened, they would definitely still be in human settlements, and in China, the safety of most of them is still guaranteed. I think it's best to spread your new chestnut to the whole country as soon as possible. If our friends and family are still alive, this is the best way to help! Shen Wei came to Zhang Le, who was in a daze, and persuaded him.

Zhang Le smiled bitterly and said, "The point is, I can't remember what they look like!" Shen Wei was silent.

"However, you are right, even if you find relatives and friends, staying by our side is not necessarily safe, and the security of China is not much of a problem, of course, provided that the power of the lizardmen must be eradicated, these guys are time bombs. Now, climate change, the most important thing is the issue of eating. We send seeds to all parts of the country through official channels. After a long time, Zhang Le finally cheered up.

"Then let's go down and have a look!" Shen Wei said. The two still rode the bird to the bottom.

Most of Jiangyin's urban areas are still there. The two didn't even have to introduce themselves before a local came over to say hello.

There was a question that confused Zhang Le. The altitude of Jiangyin is not high among several nearby cities, but why did other cities disappear, but Jiangyin remained.

Now, in the official unified voice, the humans of the city in the sky have become heroes. Whether it is men, women or children, they are very enthusiastic about Zhang Le and the two.

After a warm welcome, a slightly shy middle-aged man stayed. He is an administrator of the Jiangyin municipal government, named Wu Chunlai, and is the director of the Government Liaison Office. Jiangyin still has a population of nearly 20,000 people, and most of the government agencies have been abolished, leaving only one liaison office and two staff members.

"In addition to sea level rise, the main thing is subsidence. Because the structure of the earth's crustal plates is unstable, there are too many high-rise buildings in urban agglomerations, and the whole ground sinks. First the city, then the suburbs, and finally the whole thing went down. Shanghai, Suzhou, Chongming Island, and Nantong all sank. Last week, a telegram came from Chengdu saying that all coastal residents could gradually move to the plateau areas of Sichuan, Xinjiang or Inner Mongolia, but they should do what they can and do a good job of safety protection. ”

"Are there any human casualties there?" Zhang Le asked. He also didn't expect that it would happen in less than half a month.

"It's not big, a lot of people died in the nuclear war in these cities, the rest of the population is already small, and the subsidence didn't happen overnight. The Nanjing Military Region specially sent troops to escort them, and the people in the large and small gathering areas withdrew westward by rail. Wu Chun said.

Zhang Le breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably.

"Director Wu, that's right, I have a batch of cold-tolerant benign mutant crop seeds, and I have provided some for planting in Huanggang and Poyang Lake, but recently the cold snap has hit, and I am afraid that the entire southern region will fail to harvest, so now I hope to send this batch of seeds to all parts of the country to be planted. I would like to contact Standing Committee Member Zhu and ask him to instruct him to deliver it through the postal system. Zhang Le said.

After listening to the first half of the words, Wu Chunlai looked embarrassed, but when he saw that Zhang Le was willing to contact Standing Committee Member Zhu, he immediately changed his attitude and said: "That's great, with the support of Standing Committee Member Zhu, it will definitely work, let's go, let's go to the post office now." ”

Telegrams sent to Standing Committee members of the Zhu Standing Committee had to be forwarded by special units, and half a day had passed. In the evening, a long telegram of government announcements was sent to all parts of the country, including the city of Jiangyin.

"Comrade Zhang Le, an outstanding citizen of Kashgar City, provides excellent cold-tolerant crops to all gathering areas across the country, and hereby orders the postal system and strategic material system to be responsible for transportation, and local government agencies to coordinate and arrange planting."

During this time, taking advantage of the time to the ground, Zhang Le had already accelerated the harvest of more than a ton of chestnut seeds. Although the number of chestnuts in each cluster is still small, it is not necessary to allocate them according to the number.

Everything was arranged, and Wu Chunlai sent Zhang Le and the others outside.

"By the way, Director Wu, is there an anti-mass killer alliance here in Jiangyin City?" Zhang Le asked suddenly.

"There's a little station, what's wrong? Mr. Zhang has something to do with them? Wu Chunlai asked a little unnaturally.

"It's okay, I'm just a little curious, this organization is really everywhere!" Zhang Le said with a smile.

Zhang Le and Shen Wei left the ground and returned to Sky City.

Zhang Le felt a headache for Grove's instructions, and he didn't want to see any alliance members now.

However, not meeting does not mean that Zhang Le has nothing to do. He issued the first telegram order to the entire Union: cease all operations to destroy prohibited items, pending further instructions, and all benefits to be distributed normally.

If analyzed strictly, Grove's order is divided into three steps. The first step is to stop the destruction of prohibited items; The second step is to shift the focus to expanding the strength of the alliance; The third step is to make the ultimate goal of the alliance public, which is to kill the infidels.

But before the second step can be carried out, the internal thoughts and actions must be unified, which is also the most difficult step. On the surface, it is natural that aliens and humans with common aspirations form an alliance to rule the planet. But everyone is not stupid, at least from Zhang Le's point of view, it is not an honorable thing to be the party leading the way of aliens, and how many people will respond at that time is a big question.

Of course, the lizardmen are not stupid, and if the Chinese side does not act for a long time, they will definitely be suspected. Therefore, Zhang Le decided to take a compromise approach and fool around for a while.

It's a pity that there are some things that can't be avoided. As soon as Zhang Le's order was issued, the telegraph was not turned off, and immediately a Dididi signal came in.

"Jiangyin City welcomes the president to come for inspection!"

"Chengdu headquarters, please give instructions on the next step!"

“……”

"Who is afraid of whom, I don't plan to delay, the first step is to first integrate all the personnel of the alliance in China, those who do not obey die, and those who do not cooperate with the lizardmen will also die for me!" After suppressing his mood for a day, Zhang Le couldn't help but say angrily.

Ever since Grove left, Zhang Le had been hesitant, and he had planned to meet the Lychee's colleagues before deciding how to deal with the lizardmen. But judging by the current situation, procrastination will not solve any problems. There must be hidden lizardmen in the various stations in China, and they can't let themselves go.

"In that case, let's just face it all on our own! Let the Lychee get involved in this danger, and if something happens, I'll regret it even more! Zhang Le, who has always wanted to get wisdom from the Lychee, suddenly opened up.
