Chapter 14: Cornered
Some people in the convoy were crying, some were sighing, the woman in the same car with the young man kept crying, complaining that she shouldn't come with the convoy, and many people also regretted their choice, but before Yunxing showed a strong force value, these people only dared to complain in a low voice, but they didn't dare to protest directly to Yunxing.
Because they couldn't get out of the car, everyone curled up, and after a long time, everyone was exhausted, people's mentality began to gradually become unbalanced, and an atmosphere of despair spread among the crowd.
The situation of weightlessness is getting more and more serious, and later, including cars, all objects are suspended in the air, but the higher the mass of the object, the lower the floating height, such as the car and other heavy objects are only suspended at a height of two or three meters from the ground, and the lighter objects are floating dozens of meters or even hundreds of meters in the air, all the objects are floating in the sky, nothing can be spared, the whole sky is dark, as if the end of the world is coming. People were hiding in their cars, panicking, and they could only pray incessantly, praying that they would be spared.
The weightlessness lasted for almost seven days, and I don't know when it began, people suddenly felt the car move slightly, and then, various objects suspended in the sky fell one after another, fortunately, the strengthening of gravity happened gradually, so the car fell very slowly, and no one was injured when it landed, but the grass roots of the clods of soil that fell from the sky crackled on the car window, like a rain of earth, and it scared people enough.
People curled their heads in the car and waited for the crisis to pass, and at this time, everyone realized that if it were in the city, the fall of those reinforced concrete heavy objects would probably take more people's lives, so it seems that Yunxing's choice is still correct, at least except for the unlucky young man, everyone is alive and sound.
It was only when everything had fallen to the ground that people dared to step out of the car door and try to move their stiff bodies, and only then did they notice the horrific changes that had taken place around them.
In fact, the ground is not just a mess, now the earth is full of deep ravines, the originally flat and vast grassland is gone, replaced by endless ravines and vertical plains, this is simply a earth-shaking change, before everyone was suspended in the air, did not know these changes on the ground, now it seems that in addition to the previous gravitational changes, the earth's surface has undergone other changes.
The young man's body was gathered and buried in a relatively flat place, and then the cars were started and returned the way they came.
Because there are many ravines on the ground, the convoy walked extremely slowly, from the grassland to the nearby gas station was originally only a little more than an hour away, but now it actually walked for more than three hours, and when they arrived at the gas station, the scene shocked everyone.
At this time, the gas station has become a pile of ruins, not only the gas station collapsed, but the whole building is smoky black, apparently it was on fire after the collapse, it seems that this gas station can not be counted on.
Yun Xing stared at several corpses in the distance, his brows furrowed, and the others were shouting bad luck, and they all got into the car, ready to drive on.
Yun Xing suddenly said in a loud voice: "Don't go, everyone, listen to me!" ”
Everyone turned around one after another and looked at Yunxing with puzzled expressions.
"I have a suggestion now, it's better for everyone to concentrate the oil in the car and put it in the car with lower fuel consumption and longer endurance, and throw away the car with a lot of fuel consumption and bulkiness, so that maybe we can continue to move forward, as long as we can enter the bigger towns, we have a hope of survival."
"Throw the car away? We don't throw, what if the gravitational pull disappears before it happens again? "A lot of people are against it, and the previous catastrophe has scared everyone, and no one wants to have no safe haven to hide from the next sudden change in gravity.
Yun Xing pondered for a moment and said, "This time the sudden change in gravity should have disappeared, and now the earth or other planets have entered their own orbits, at least in the short term, there will be no danger from before." ”
"If there is no danger in the short term, what about a longer time?"
"Longer? If we didn't get to the big towns, we wouldn't have survived! Yun Xing said calmly, "We either enter the larger town as soon as possible, or hide in the car and wait to starve to death, how long do you think we can stay now?" Everyone has almost run out of food, and there is not much fuel left, and according to our current situation, we can't go to the city at all! Speaking of this, Yun Xing paused for a moment, and sneered again: "I don't force everyone, if anyone is willing to continue to sit in your broken car, then take care of themselves, everyone depends on their own ability, see whose car can drive farther, who can survive hungry to the end, I can tell everyone, maybe after approaching the town, the situation over there is more terrible than we imagined!" ”
Everyone was silent, in fact, everyone knew in their hearts that even the grassland could undergo such terrible changes, so the situation in the city was probably even more severe, but everyone now had some survival resources in their hands, and no one thought that they would face a desperate situation until the last moment.
Everyone was silent for a moment, and then some people stood up and spoke one after another, some people thought that they should listen to Yun Xing's words, everyone concentrated fuel and food and continued to move forward, and some people objected to Yun Xing's proposal, and everyone quarreled for a while.
Yun Xing stood to the side and looked indifferently at the two groups arguing, then turned and walked towards the ruins of the gas station.
Yun Cheng looked at Yun Xing's actions, felt a little puzzled, and was about to ask the reason, when he saw Yun Xing suddenly bend down and pull out a few bags of snacks from the ruins.
Although the gas station was burned to rubble, there were a few items left, and Yunxing was picking out the undamaged packaging. However, the gas station was basically destroyed, and there was not much left, and Yun Xing only found a very small number of complete packaged food, and he couldn't find anything anymore. As for the fuel, there is no need to think about it, and the previous explosion will definitely not leave any fuel behind.
So after picking out some edible food, Yunxing returned to the car, sat down in the car, and drove the car away.
Everyone in the quarrel was stunned to see Yunxing's car ride in the dust, everyone quickly stopped the quarrel, hurriedly ran back to the car, started the engine and drove south.
Everyone drove south for a while, and the several gas stations they saw were all in the same situation, none of the gas stations could still be kept intact, and no gas station could still leave a little fuel, and even the small supermarket necessary in the gas station was almost not left, which made everyone gradually panic, and even Yun Xing frowned.
