Chapter 113: 65°C, Drought

The last time he dreamed, he dreamed that hot weather would lead to purgatory on earth, the world would be like a melting pot, and global human civilization would be in danger.

In fact, his dream has already come true, half a month after the earthquake, what is not purgatory on earth in many places in Sichuan and Chongqing?

The loss of homes and the lack of electricity leave those homeless exposed to the scorching sun, and the poorer the more disasters befall them.

More than 40,000 people died from heat stroke and heatstroke.

More than 80 percent of these people are people living in poverty.

Those who have money either flee to other places, or use the high cost of gas to run the air conditioner to get by, or they can also spend money to go to a bomb shelter and take a break from the sun.

Those who have no money can only carry it in the shade, and many people are burned to death, and when they die, they are a family and a family.

In this earthquake, there are also many shocking photographic works out of the circle, and the most shocking one Zhou Ping has seen is in a basement, where people who are still able to do so are hiding in the car with the air conditioner on.

Families without conditions lay on the floor, or slumped, lying flat, or looking at the ceiling in despair, and a woman with a child in her arms, leaning against a pillar, looking dead, while her child still moved her fingers weakly.

What's even more terrifying is that all the relatives around her have also died, and the skin on her face has even shown symptoms of shriveling.

No one knows what the final outcome of the child will be, whether she will be saved by someone with a heart, or will she die like her parents and relatives?

In the upper left corner of the photo, in the car, a little girl is looking out of the window, her eyes full of incomprehension and innocence, which is the last straw that kills all psychological defenses.

After looking at this photo, is it despair? Is it anger? Or are you sorry and sympathetic for their fate?

No, neither.

I have seen too much, so I am numb, the state of society as a whole is already such that despair and anger are useless, and there is only one ending for a child in swaddling clothes, and that is death.

No one could save him, because he was too busy to take care of himself.

The appearance of these photos was strongly repercussed and condemned by the society, but soon, people found out how much better the environment they live in?

The 34 regions of the Dragon Kingdom, 7 of which are in the coastal areas are caught in the long storm and typhoon, floods, waterlogging, mudslides, landslides cause people to be unable to get out of their homes at all, the violent cold erodes their lives, the clothes that can never be dried, the houses and rice that are always moldy, under the bombardment of wind and rain, storms, lightning and thunder, countless homes are submerged, countless houses are collapsed, they themselves are mud bodhisattvas across the river, who is qualified to sympathize with others.

In addition, more than a dozen provinces were suffering from the heat, and the blazing sun tore open the skin of the earth, roasted all the food it could see, steamed out the water of countless rivers and seas, and continuously transported it to the coast or other cities, causing even more terrible flood disasters.

If it weren't for this photo, as well as the sudden popularity of the weather report from the non-governmental scientific research group, people would not know that people all over the country are living in such a dire situation.

At this moment, no one in the country is developed, everyone is poor, and they can only manage themselves.

The procurement tide broke out without hesitation, and the high walls built collapsed and collapsed overnight, and the huge data and information exploded, which was once unnoticed in the corner, and now exposed to everyone's eyes.

But there seems to be another problem going on, but not too many people are paying attention to it urgently.

Headwaters.

Zhou Ping suddenly realized that the increasingly high temperatures, coupled with a series of reactions caused by the Sichuan-Chongqing earthquake, could soon usher in a huge drought in Sichuan.

If his dream really has a certain prophetic effect, then the high temperature and power rationing have been realized, and the next step is drought?

Oil is expensive, electricity is expensive, and if water is also expensive, how can the people of this land live.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ping hurriedly went to the computer to check the information.

After checking Zhou Ping, he found that 90 percent of the more than a dozen provinces affected by the high temperature had a shortage of water sources.

Among the 34 provinces in the country, there are only four or five that are barely livable, climate, and hydropower.

Then, because of the earthquake, high temperature, information explosion, and the outbreak of procurement, coupled with the mode of working from home, families with conditions frantically moved to these places, and air tickets, high-speed rail, buses, and hotels were all sold out.

And on the official website, many red messages also confirm the extreme seriousness of the situation.

Just like Zhou Ping guessed a long time ago, the high temperature city does not rain only out of the sun, the water source evaporates a lot, but it becomes a torrential rain in other cities, although from the meteorological analysis, the water source of the high temperature city does not go directly to the coastal city, but in essence, this is not bad, the only consequence it can lead to is:

Drought places are getting drier and drier, and where heavy rains are raining, there is extreme polarization, and even the repeated third-party intervention by the state has not made much difference.

Moving to another city?

Zhou Ping had this thought in his heart, but he quickly shook his head again.

It is impossible for him to suddenly go to another city to buy a house, of course, it is very likely that he will not be able to buy it and the price of housing will soar rapidly, but renting a house is not guaranteed at all, and in the event of an accident, they may become homeless.

In addition, the large number of people gathered, and the overpopulation will also put a huge burden on the city, and it is unknown whether it will break out of the plague or other disasters as a result.

At least in the hot zone, there is no need to worry about plague and germs, even if the corpses are exposed to the wilderness and exposed to the heat, there is nothing.

Even maggots and flies can't grow.

Nowadays, there is a severe epidemic of influenza in coastal cities, which is a new type of flu-influenza, which has almost spread in coastal cities, but has not seen a single case in high-temperature cities.

However, in Sichuan and Chongqing, water resources have become a huge problem, and the main question is how long will this drought last?

If it lasts for a few months, Zhou Ping can survive by storing water resources in advance.

But if this disaster is a year, or even several years, and finally it spreads from one city, to countless cities, and then to the whole world, forming a rare global disaster, no matter how much water he stores, it will be used up one day.

At that time, living will only become a huge luxury, and the economy, society, and agriculture will collapse on all fronts, and what will they do?
