the beginning of the end

Chapter 8: Hail Attacks

"What's going on with you this afternoon?" Shen Xi stood behind him.

Mu Qiangguo turned around and hugged him, and said in a low voice, "I saved a few people." This was to explain why he was covered in blood and came back late.

"The situation outside is chaotic." Shen Xi hugged Mu Qiangguo back, resting his head on his shoulder.

"A lot of people died, the hailstorm was too big, and the scene was too chaotic. Most people were injured and killed because they didn't even have time to react and dodge. I just helped a little and saved a few people." Mu Qiangguo thought of the bloody scene in the afternoon. The scene, I feel a little uncomfortable.

Shen Xi looked up at Mu Qiangguo, saw the look in his eyes sinking, and knew that the sense of justice in his heart had come out again, maybe it was because he had suffered too much when he was a child, and now he can't help but reach out to help others when they are in trouble , but in the days to come such compassion is not needed.

Seeing how Mu Qiangguo treats Su Zi's family, he is not firm enough, but soft.

"You think too much." Shen Xi took the initiative to kiss the corner of his mouth.

"I'll pay attention in the future." Mu Qiangguo also knows that he is soft-hearted, and if he really meets someone who should help in the future, he will help him, otherwise he will be in trouble if he is like Su Zi. Pointing out carbon is to eliminate unnecessary troubles, anyway, there is a lot of carbon stored in his space.

"The most important thing for me now is to protect you and my son." After Mu Qiangguo said this seriously, he kissed Shen Xi's mouth deeply.

After the kiss was over, Shen Xi held him for breath, a little weak.

"Dad, kiss." Mu Xibao ran over with the little puppet tiger, stretched out his face to kiss, and after dad kissed dad, he also wanted to kiss the baby.

Shen Xi blushed a little after hearing what his son said.

"Okay, Daddy kisses the baby, the baby is the most obedient." Mu Qiangguo smiled and squatted down to kiss his son's little face.

Mu Xibao also went back to kiss his father, and went to play with his father again when he was satisfied.

When Mu Qiangguo saw his son grabbing Shen Xi's trousers and wanted to hug him, he felt completely relaxed, and said with a smile, "I didn't eat enough just now, I'll go to the kitchen to order some noodles, and then steam an egg custard for the baby."

"You go, son, I'll watch." Shen Xi nodded, picked up the little guy and sat on the sofa to play with him.

Mu Qiangguo went into the kitchen to cook noodles. Seeing that there were no fresh vegetables in the kitchen, he went to the space to pick a handful to make side dishes. The ones he made for Suzi’s family just now were leftovers bought outside. .In order not to let people notice the weirdness of their family, he would go out every once in a while to buy some long-lasting vegetables and put them back, and entertain guests, although their family basically never had guests.

After a while, Shen Xi remembered something. Seeing his son having fun by himself, he went to the kitchen and leaned against the door to look inside. Mu Qiangguo was making the noodle soup. He turned his head to look at him, and said: " Is something wrong?"

"Did you call your mother today?" Shen Xi asked.

"Yes, I fought when the hailstorm hit this afternoon. My mother, younger brother, sister-in-law, and eldest sister are all at home today, so they should be fine." Hearing Shen Xi ask about his mother, Mu Qiangguo turned around and smiled at him. He didn't stop serving, and quickly put the noodles into the boiling water in the pot, beat the eggs and steamed them in another pot.

"It's good that nothing happened." Shen Xi felt relieved. If something happened to the old lady, Mu Qiangguo would definitely be very sad. He didn't want to see his lover like that.

"Don't worry, if something really happens, I'll take Mom over to live here. It's just that I might wrong you and the baby." Mu Qiangguo apologized to Shen Xi. He began to worry about the troubles of the old lady after she came over. It won't last long.

At night, Mu Qiangguo and Shen Xi planned to take their son to sleep in the living room. The air conditioner in the bedroom was broken and it was too cold. Mu Qiangguo could only piece together the couch in the living room to make a bed for three people, and put the bedding in the bedroom. The blankets were taken out and spread thickly, the sofa was very soft, and the three of them slept comfortably. This night, they rested with the sound of "crackling" hail outside the window.

The hailstorm finally stopped after a day and a night, but the sequelae left by the hailstorm were very serious. The cables outside were damaged a lot, the power connection was not connected and stopped, and the water and gas pipelines were frozen again, so the water and gas also stopped. There is no time for the maintenance staff to renovate, and people have entered another panic. There is no water to replace with snow, no gas and electricity to cook and heat, and the current weather is so cold that people will freeze to death.

Some supermarkets and shops that were barely open before are closed. The state's appeasement is useless. Some people start to give up on themselves and feel that life is like a day. The street shops in the street were even looted, and the voice of the end of the world was getting louder and louder. The country began to dispatch troops to suppress it. The noise outside was suppressed by the power of the country and soon disappeared.

Feeling that they could no longer rely on the state to rescue them, others began to think of ways to fight the cold. Smart people quickly thought of carbon and stoves, as well as candles, and the importance of electromagnetism. Money is still useful at this time, and everyone began to hoard These few things, some people think that this winter should be very long, so they bought a lot of them, and some people bought some in small quantities with a fluke mentality. The merchants who resell things have made a lot of money. The measures implemented by the country to appease the people are not effective at all, but even with charcoal fires for heating, there are still many old people and children who cannot stand the cold at night and suffer from frostbite and frostbite. died.

The weather is getting colder every day, and more and more people are dying. Many people who have not hoarded much food before have no rice to cook. They can't even find a place to buy food and eat during the day. They want to borrow from friends and relatives. At that point, the phone can no longer be played.

Almost all the trees, flowers and plants outside were frozen to death. People finally got really scared and began to believe that this winter might be very long. They were more urgent about food and food, as well as things to keep out the cold. This is a city, not like the countryside. People are used to hoarding a year’s worth of food and a lot of firewood for use at home. Many things in the city need to be bought, and even if you want to spend the money later, you can’t spend it, not to mention the fact that most of the plants are frozen to death. Next, I don't know if we can grow food in the coming year?

The environment is getting worse and worse. From time to time, there are shrill and sad cries from the surrounding floors. Mu Qiangguo is also a little anxious to stay at home. He has not contacted his mother and brother for a few days, and he does not know how they are doing. The old lady is old, and she must not be able to stand the cold.
