"Today is the summer solstice. Mo Tayu looked at the tepid sun in the sky, and then at the cotton clothes on his body. “

d, summer is like winter. After a sigh, Mo Tawu continued to shovel the snow in front of his door. Outside, the house was covered in snow, and the sky was white until the horizon. Even though he had to wear cotton clothes almost every day, he still complained about the ghostly weather. "Seventy years ago, scholars on Earth were still projecting the warming of the planet, and who would have thought that now there are only summer and winter seasons near the equator. Alas, the world is impermanent. ”

It all started five years ago, in 2075, when Russia discovered a huge rocky cavity in the depths of the Arctic Ocean. In the same year, Russia organized nearly 100 scouts to go 4,000 meters under the ice ocean, but found that even after blasting open the rock formations, the cavity was still protected by solid ice. The following year, the Antarctic expeditions of the United States and China discovered that there was also a huge cavity under the Antarctic continent. In the same year, Russia joined the team of China and the United States in the exploration of Antarctic cavities through the exchange of information on Arctic ice caves.

In 2077, a team of nearly 300 people from the three countries descended into a hollow 500 meters below sea level. But the cavity is still protected by ice. This time, the United States and Russia want to rely on huge laser cutting technology to break the ice. Just as China was about to agree to this plan, the leader of the Chinese team, the elderly archaeological doctor Ran Dongfang, discovered a touch of cyan in the depths of the ice, and a legend came to mind: only the 10,000-year-old ice has a cyan luster. So, at Professor Ran's insistence, China withdrew from the expedition. But Professor Ran and his entourage stayed behind, monitoring the movements of the other two countries. In August 2077, the European Union joined in with state-of-the-art laser equipment and the cutting began. After a month, the team advanced 30 meters. In October, the team advanced only 10 meters. In the following four months, it was difficult to advance a total of 10 meters. At this time, Professor Ran found that the color of the ice had reached black and blue, so all Chinese personnel and materials in Antarctica were evacuated. At the same time, Japan came to Antarctica with new ice-breaking technology.

On May 18, 2078, with the new technology, the expedition team advanced another ten meters, and through the ice wall it was already possible to see a bright light inside. Even Professor Ran wondered if he was too sensitive, when the world changed.

According to the post-mortem investigation, everyone did their duty that day, there were no accidents, no accidents, and all of a sudden, the ice in the Antarctic cave melted away, and it was replaced by endless cold. In an instant, expedition personnel from several countries lost their mobility due to extreme cold. A minute later, a supermassive blizzard occurred over Antarctica, covering an area nearly a quarter the size of Antarctica. An hour later, a hundred kilometers of the sea near Antarctica was completely frozen.

At the same time, the Arctic Ocean, underwater ice caves are also spewing out a lot of cold air. A huge cold snap turned the entire Arctic Ocean into ice.

A week later, two cold snaps converged near the equator, and for the next month, a full month of snow fell on the Earth, and the Earth officially entered the Ice Age. Since then, there has been only winter and a short warm season in the north and south of the equator. Even the equatorial region can only live in the summer when the sun is shining directly.

The severe cold has led to a large number of plant deaths, and even though the progress of science and technology has made it possible for plants to grow without many restrictions, but in the case of unpreparedness, the earth has fallen into ***. Severe cold and famine have led to a massive decline in the earth's population. Ten rooms and nine empty, there are less than a billion people on the planet.

Mo was very lucky, when the severe cold came, he and his family were on vacation in Hainan, and the cold wave was only equivalent to a heavy snowfall in the north for Hainan. The Mo family is a big family in the local area, and in the famine, the Mo family worked together to survive the difficult year 2078. Although the Mo family's food supply was given priority, many elderly and infirm people still did not survive, and the entire family lost one-third of its members. But most of the people who survived were young people and children.

Mo Ta worried about sweeping the snow in front of the door, returned to the house, turned on the TV and watched the news. "According to the observation of the Global Cold Snap Monitoring Agency and the International Space Station, a huge cold snap will erupt again at the North and South Poles, and this time the intensity will be more violent than last year's, but please rest assured that we are more prepared!" "Don't worry about changing the stage.

After the outbreak in 2078, in October 2079, a huge cold snap broke out again in the North and South Poles, and for no reason, it broke out suddenly.

But the world is bracing for a cold wave, and there has been a startling breakthrough in the cultivation of food indoors. So even though the cold snap lasts longer and is colder, it is far less harmful to humans than the first time.

"According to the National Astronomical Observatories, a large number of small meteorites will descend on Earth in the near future. However, please rest assured that meteorites will burn in the atmosphere, and even if they land on Earth, they will be small meteorites, so please stay calm. ”

"It's a cold wave and a meteorite, is the world going to be destroyed?" Mo Ta turned off the TV and thought as he looked at the snow outside.

Because of the heavy snow, Mo Tayu hasn't been to school for several years. So the next day, Mo Tawu first studied online at home for half a day, and then went to the Mojia Grain Base in the afternoon. Food has become the most important thing in the world. On average, there is a snow every week, resulting in almost all the roads and railways being abandoned, and only a few roads connecting the main city are cleaned and maintained day and night, and the grain base of the Mo family is the largest and most comprehensive in W City, so the Mo family is particularly important to the food base, not only the Mo family, but the most strictly guarded place in all cities is the grain base.

In W City, in addition to the Mo family occupying a place in the city because of the abundance of food, there is also the Zhou Group because it is an energy company on an equal footing with the Mo family, only the government can be more powerful than the two.

Zhou's Group is a leading enterprise in the energy industry in Province A, and the new energy stations established by his family have covered most of the cities in the south. And after the New Ice Age, with strong strength and relying on the shortage of energy in the New Ice Age, he is on an equal footing with the Mo family.

The presence of heavy snow made it especially inconvenient to travel, and it took Mo Tayu an hour to get from his home to the grain base a few kilometers away.

"Tianle, are you coming to your father?" "Yes, Uncle Heng, is my father still in the laboratory?" Tianle is Mo Tawor's nickname, and Mo Heng, the security minister of the grain base, is his second uncle.

"Here, let's go in. Mo Heng checked up and down, and let Mo Tawu enter the gate of the base. The base is very large, after all, it has to supply food for the 200,000 people in W City. Rice, wheat and other food crops have been improved and optimized for decades, and their adaptation and yield have reached the maximum, but now the difference is only to adapt to this astonishing low temperature. And Mo Taw's father, Mo Yuheng, is an expert in agricultural improvement, and it was also because he was the director of the Food Bureau in W City that the Mo family was able to survive the famine. Since then, Mo Yuheng has been working to make food crops adapt to lower temperatures, resulting in lower energy consumption.

The grain base is very warm, because the growth of food needs enough heat, which is why Mo Tayu likes to run here.

Looking at the wheat stalks as thick as a small tree all the way, Mo was worried and walked all the way to the laboratory. His parents hadn't been back for several days, and Mo Ta was still a little worried. Mo's mother is also a Ph.D. in agriculture and often works with Mo.

Looking at the busy parents outside, Mo Ta turned on the computer in the office and watched the news in a boring way. He knew that his parents were about to overcome the difficulties, but they forgot to tell him, and the bodies of the two, Mo Tawor was not worried, Mo Yuheng's habit was to sleep eight hours a day, no more, no less, very regular, keeping his mind clear was what he had always emphasized, so Mo Yuheng's body was better than his son's.

"According to the Observatory's prediction, the meteorite will land tomorrow night, and the area where the meteorite will land will be near W City and Q City. ”

"W City, we are here, it seems that we have to let the second brother prepare. A familiar voice rang out from the doorway. "Mom, Dad, are you done?" "Well, I've been working with your dad for days, and finally, it's time to see the results." "Yes, it can be lowered by up to five degrees, now it's up to the growth test." Let's go, let's go home together. ”
