Heavy rain is still falling.

The water was two stories high.

The leaders were so worried that they couldn't sleep, so they gathered together for meetings every day to discuss how to keep the base and how to protect the millions of residents while the water line was gradually rising.

While they were anxious, the residents, who had been waiting for good news from the Meteorological Agency, also became panicked.

Just when the atmosphere at the base was getting sluggish and everyone couldn't live in peace, the torrential rain finally stopped.

- "The rain has stopped! ”

There were cheers in the building.

Although the sky was overcast and gray foggy, the rain had stopped enough for them to rejoice.

The official leader, who was anxious and foamed at the corners of his mouth, also put down the heavy boulder hanging in his heart when the rain curtain that lasted for more than three months disappeared in front of his eyes.

When the stagnant water receded, the authorities immediately dispatched three armies to the grassland to clean up the corpses.

There are not only animal carcasses in the steppe.

There are also quite a few human corpses.

They were either people who had escaped on the way to escape, or they were living alone, unintentionally getting the news on the radio, and hurried to the Hunza steppes for refuge.

However, on the way here, he encountered a torrential rain accompanied by a tornado, and there was nowhere to hide, so he became a victim of this disaster.

The soldiers who went out looked at the gray and rotting corpses of their compatriots and animals scattered all over the grassland, and their hearts were particularly heavy.

They silently gathered all the corpses into an area, and the only choice was to incinerate them in order to avoid causing an epidemic.

The evening of the burning.

Residents and officials looked through their windows at the area where a large number of corpses were piled up, silently sending them to rest.

The branch placed under the corpse was ignited.

The fire came into contact with a little spilled gasoline and spread in an instant, and the flames lit up half of the sky, causing the corpses to be swept into the flames, looking at the base with gray eyes in the burn.

As far as the eye could see, there was only red flames.

Countless lives screamed as if in the flames, indicting this world that was rotten to mud.

When the screaming stopped abruptly, the smoke left in the corpse heap, with countless souls, fluttered into the sky.

The sun is pouring down.

It is rare to encounter a sunny day, and many people take advantage of the Saturday rest to go out for a walk on the grassland.

Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou went out after dinner.

They decided to take advantage of the favorable weather to take Fang Xing and Jin Ge out to play for a while, so they went to the edge of the grassland.

Walked for more than half an hour.

When there was no one around, and the base building had turned into a small back, she stopped in front of a huge meteorite and released Fang Xing and Jin Ge who were napping with their eyes closed.

"Boom!"

The two sentient horses suddenly woke up, their eyes opened, and they let out excited calls.

The jujube red Fang Xing rubbed his forefeet against the grass, and his smooth and shiny hair swayed with the wind, like a cluster of flames; Jin Ge, who is all black, looks around with his neck raised, his fur is comparable to an ink painting, and he can't take his eyes off it.

As usual, no matter how eager they were to play, they would still approach Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou first, rub their heads, and flick their tails to signal them to get on their horses.

"Yueyue, do you want to ride two laps?" Wen Qizhou, who hadn't ridden a horse for a long time, grabbed the reins and glanced at Chi Yue, who was smiling at the corner of his mouth.

Chi Yue nodded.

She stepped on the pedals, jumped up neatly, sat on Fang Xing's horse, and tugged on the reins to wrap around her hand.

"We're faster than anyone else." Without waiting for him to turn over and get on the horse, she clamped the horse's belly and rode Fang Xing forward first.

Jin Ge, who was slapped by Fang Xing's tail and slapped him, watched his little friend run away and anxiously stepped in place.

He also looked at Wen Qizhou and snorted.

Wen Qizhou, who was urged, shook his head and smiled, sat on the back of the horse without hurrying, and rode Jin Ge to chase Fang Xing not far away.

One red and one black were like two bolts of lightning, speeding across the grassland, and the mane and tail around them were like afterimages.

They seem to know it's a game.

They don't let each other go, sometimes they shorten the distance, and sometimes they speed up and shorten the distance, which is quite a competition.

Chi Yue on horseback smiled openly.

The slender and graceful figure always sat firmly on the horse's back, driving Fang Xing to gallop.

The breeze blew through her long and soft hair, and her beautiful apricot eyes reflected the green grassland and the warm sun.

The morning sun is as beautiful as the snow-capped mountains.

Wen Qizhou, whose eyes did not leave her, filled her wanton figure with her eyes, and her thin lips quietly raised a shallow arc.

They ran a long way away against the breeze.

When Fang Xing was temporarily ahead, Chi Yue unilaterally announced the end of the game, and pulled the reins to slow down Fang Xing.

She laughed, "We won." ”

Jingo: "......"

It is unwilling to plunder the grass twice.

"If you are cheating, Jin Ge will cry angrily." Wen Qizhou grabbed the reins and lowered his eyes to look at Jin Ge, who kept "squeezing".

Chi Yue pretended to observe it carefully.

"Jingo?" Capturing its gaze, she pursed her lips and still laughed in her voice: "Where are your tears?" ”

Jin Ge was stunned for two seconds.

Shake your head and ignore her.

"I'm still throwing a tantrum." Wen Qizhou leaned down, covered his palm on Jin Ge's head and touched it, but he couldn't hold back his laughter.

To coax it, they ran one more lap.

She deliberately asked Fang Xing to slow down, and after Wen Qizhou announced the end and lost to Jin Ge, she slowly rode two horses that were too tall and walked around the edge of the grassland.

The light and shadow stretched their reflections, leaving a fleeting trace, and the sound of horses' hooves drifted away with the wind.

"Knock knock—"

A knock sounded early Sunday morning.

Wen Qizhou, who was woken up, put on the pajamas next to the sofa to cover his naked body before walking to the door.

He glanced out through the cat's eye, saw that it was Ge Qinyao, and immediately opened the door: "Why did you get up so early?" ”

"I can't sleep."

Ge Qinyao's eyes swelled with joy.

Suddenly realizing that the curtains of their house were closed and it was dim, only to realize that he had come too early.

She apologized, "Did you wake you up? ”

"No, we're ready too." He motioned for Ge Qinyao to enter the door, and walked straight to the bay window sill to open the curtains.

A ray of sunlight refracted in.

Chi Yue, who lifted the quilt and got out of bed, rubbed her eyes and sat on the two-seater sofa, and looked at Ge Qinyao when she woke up and fell asleep.

She caught the joy between Ge Qinyao's eyebrows, and was curious for a moment: "What happened?" Makes you so excited? ”

I was so excited that I didn't sleep anymore.

Ge Qinyao smiled even brighter.

She took the glass handed by Wen Qizhou and winked at Chi Yue slyly: "You're going to be a godmother!" ”

“……”

Chi Yue, who was about to drink water, suddenly stiffened when he raised his hand, and looked at Ge Qinyao who was smiling in disbelief.

She asked, "Are you pregnant?" ”

"That's right." Ge Qinyao unconsciously stretched out her hand and put it on her lower abdomen: "Yesterday I went out for a walk, and suddenly I felt uncomfortable, and I came back to the doctor for a checkup, only to find out that I was pregnant." ”

She exudes sweetness and tenderness.

Chi Yue couldn't laugh.

The friend who grew up together is pregnant, she should give blessings, but the end of the world does not know when it will end, in the constant turmoil of natural disasters, even adults may not be able to survive, the most fragile children, can they grow up safely?

She and Wen Qizhou looked at each other for two seconds, their eyes were filled with the same emotion, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

The current environment is too difficult to give birth to a new life, in case of an accident, what should she and Tan Song do?

Countless practical questions poured into their minds, and Chi Yue looked at Ge Qinyao who was immersed in joy, and her heart was bitter.

This hellish world.
