"Ah," Chu Xi woke up from a nightmare again. With a splitting headache, she covered her gray and dry head and couldn't help groaning.
How many times have I dreamed the same dream, the same scene, and the same characters every night since I returned from the team's food search a month ago?
A vicious woman, about fifty years old, was beating her with a thin but strong willow stick. Her extremely ugly face was filled with vicious curses, but she couldn't hear what they were saying...
After regaining some consciousness, she could see the room she was in in the dim light.
It was a simple and messy room. In the small space, apart from a small bed, there were only a few tattered bags at the end of the bed containing the supplies she had collected yesterday.
Yesterday, dragging a broken leg, I went through hardships and risked death to avoid hordes of zombies and sporadic monsters, and found a little bit of food and supplies left behind by an unknown survivor in a ruined house on the edge of the city.
The cold moonlight penetrated the cracks in the roof and dispelled the solidified darkness, and the sad heart couldn't help but feel sad again.
She was born in a well-off family in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River. Her grandparents are still alive, her parents go to get off work and come home every day, and she and her brother go to school every day. Although the family is not very rich, they live in harmony, and she enjoys the love of the whole family.
There is no traditional bad habit of favoring boys over girls in the family. Instead, they prefer to take care of this youngest baby. Every time they go out to eat or go shopping, it will make her brother jealous and the laughter of the whole family will drift far away.
Everything ended in the legend that had been predicted for hundreds of years.
According to the Mayan prophecy, December 21, 2012 will be the end of the earth. However, apart from a very small number of doomsday believers, many scientists and scholars around the world have come out to refute the rumor. In the end, no one believed it, and the doomsday theory has also generated a certain amount of heat.
We cannot see the future, nor can we look back, so many people are more or less both looking forward to and fearing the future.
On December 21st, when everyone had lunch, workers went to work, farmers went to the fields, and students went to school, the streets were still bustling and prosperous as usual.
At 3:14 p.m., the air raid sirens rang out without any warning. The sirens did not come from one direction, but from all directions. The world fell silent, and a solemn and murderous atmosphere filled the air!
Then gradually, people from cities, rural areas, and factories poured out of their houses like swarms of ants. They stopped in their tracks as they were about to run towards the air defense facilities, and all looked up at the sky.
At this moment, at this minute, at this second, at the same time around the world, the sky was covered by dark clouds.
The sky was filled with dense meteorites that blocked out the sun, with scarlet flame tails, crashing towards the earth.
Dark clouds followed closely behind like a mountain pressing down on one's head, quickly covering the sky and blocking out the sun at lightning speed.
The ghostly lights descended and the dark clouds moved downwards. It was an indescribable feeling of oppression, and even breathing felt heavier.
Instantly, people remembered the doomsday legend.
The end of the world has really come...
Gradually, people turned their heads and looked around hurriedly, looking for their children, husbands, wives, friends...
Countless people also took out their mobile phones and pressed the buttons frantically. They didn't know when the phone had no signal, and some even had a black screen, crashed, or started to emit sparks. More people started running frantically, running towards their homes or their loved ones.
On the broad highway, the vehicles that had been moving in an orderly manner suddenly began to stagger from side to side like drunkards. Rear-end collisions, scrapes, and all sorts of other car accidents occurred, and traffic was instantly paralyzed.
What was even more terrifying was that in the air, a passenger plane that was circling and landing suddenly shook. The panic of the people on board had just calmed down when the plane suddenly shook wildly a few times and then plummeted vertically, catching fire and exploding.
However, the passenger plane that crashed was not this one, but the whole world!
All aircraft in the sky, whether large passenger planes, transport aircraft, small helicopters, fighter jets, or any other aircraft using electronic equipment, all began to shake, tremble, and go crazy, as if they had received the same command, until they crashed. This also included various artificial satellites in space, which began their long, aimless flight due to inertia...
