After hearing Liu Xinmin's words, Xiaojing was relieved.

Seventeen days was not a long time, and she could still afford to wait. So, after feeling relieved, she naturally left the room - leaving the quiet environment to Liu Xinmin.

…

It was late at night soon.

The food supply in the institute was sufficient. After everyone, including all the clones including No. 17, had a dinner together, they came outside together as if they had discussed it tacitly, and then Seventeen

The childish face and seventeen pairs of deep eyes looked at the gloomy sky.

"The night of death is coming."

"Arrived very early."

"Have the components of the red mist been analyzed?" asked No. 17.

"The analysis has come out." No. 7 replied: "The proportion of three components in the red mist suddenly increased. One is the exciting stuff Liu Xinmin said, the other is the component that affects the weather and blocks light, and the other is

The first is a mysterious ray. When he was in Zhengzhou before, didn't Li Qingshui list dozens of unknown ingredients? Among them was this mysterious ray. Therefore, this time, including the mysterious ray, there were a total of three ingredients.

Sudden increase."

"Yeah." No. 17 nodded, "Then everything is clear at a glance."

"Yes. The increase in 'free will' that can lead to biological excitement will greatly increase the danger of ordinary organisms. And the components that block light will lower the temperature. This is the result that can be analyzed so far." The previous clone

He continued: "This drop in temperature will last for a long time. Most of the earth's temperature comes from sunlight. The previous red mist has the function of storing heat, so it cannot show changes in temperature. However, if most of the light is blocked,

It will be a cold winter!"

"How cold is it?" asked No. 17.

"Well, according to current data analysis, after this gray component blocks sunlight, the global average temperature will drop by about 2 degrees Celsius every day. This is a huge thing."

"Two degrees lower every day?" No. 17 frowned deeply when he heard this number. "Wouldn't it mean that in a month, Beijing will be colder than the current Antarctic?"

"Actually, it won't take a month." The previous clone took out a previous research report. "In fact, the proportion of this gray component is constantly increasing. According to the current speed, after 19 days

, Beijing will be colder than the current Antarctic."

"It shouldn't be." The boss heard this and asked his own question. "If the temperature really keeps dropping like this, then we don't need anything else at all. Just a temperature of tens to hundreds of degrees below zero can kill all species."

Most species, doesn’t this comply with the rules of the Cambrian?”

"It shouldn't be that cruel..." No. 17 looked at the sky, "Take a step. Take a step... Under the same sky, in the same research institute, in another larger research area, Li Qingshui and Ryan were at the same time

Look at the sky.

"Do you think it's possible for us to cooperate?" Li Qingshui and Ryan live in the same bedroom.

"Humans and willow trees cooperate?" Ryan smiled when he heard Li Qingshui's words. "Do you think it's possible?"

"Nothing is impossible. As long as the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, you can try anything in this world." Li Qingshui turned back and looked at Ryan, "Don't you think so?"

"Just kidding. Humans and willow trees are natural enemies." Ryan replied: "You gain wisdom and knowledge by devouring humans. Cooperating with you is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger."

"Whether we are seeking skin with tigers or seeking meat with wolves, this winter will be difficult for us." Li Qingshui turned around and lay on the bed, "And humans and willows are not naturally hostile now. I heard that people under the sea are

Is something going on? Compared to humans, I think willow trees are more interested in them."

"You are just experiencing depression before the cold winter. You want to survive this cold winter, and it seems that nature will put more pressure on you. Don't you think it's too ridiculous to seek help from humans at this time?" Ryan said

He actually laughed out loud at his words, "You have devoured almost the entire population of three provinces, and now you are looking for cooperation. To be honest, I really want to see how you die in this cold winter."

"I won't die." Li Qingshui also smiled, "I will be very embarrassed in this cold winter, and you will not have it easy either. And my embarrassment is only relative to now. In fact, compared to

Next, even in this cold winter, I will still have a greater advantage than humans."

"Then we'll see." Ryan said.

"You lost an excellent opportunity for a lion to open its mouth." Li Qingshui said.

One night passed.

Early the next morning, as No. 7 said, it was a very cold day. Winter in Beijing is already cold, with heavy snowfall often in mid-December, but today's weather is colder than before, with a gray and red sky.

, the depressed person couldn't see any sunlight. Although he could still see things, the surroundings were much darker. The snow on the ground showed no sign of melting. Instead, a layer of hard ice condensed on the top layer of the snow.

sand.

The owner of the barber shop where Xiaojing worked yesterday got up early this morning - it's not that he didn't want to sleep, he was so cold that he couldn't sleep all night.

Anyone who has ever experienced hunger knows that it is difficult for a mortal to freeze to death if he or she is full, but if the stomach is empty, the temperature of about ten degrees can make you feel extremely cold. - The barber shop owner was working at a restaurant near minus ten degrees yesterday.

In the freezing temperature, I feel like there is a chill in my bones.

He gave half of the biscuit he got from Xiaojing's haircut yesterday, and he and his wife shared the remaining half equally - a man in his thirties only ate four points in one day.

A piece of biscuit, which is actually not much different from not eating. So, when he got up this morning, the first thing he did was to grab an iron spear, equip it with the gun Wang Pengfei gave him yesterday, and walked out of the door.

.

He is looking for something to eat.

After the cockroach incident in Beijing a few days ago, there was no need to store food. In fact, before the heavy snow closed the door, these people had been hungry for many days.

They were all consumed, so the heavy snow came at the right time. "The house leaked but it rained all night, and the door was closed because of the heavy snow." This snow was a bit like adding insult to injury.

But no matter what it means, ordinary people like them who live under the sky have no objection to what God decides, they can only accept it.

Therefore, without too many complaints, the owner of the barber shop went out early in the morning with an iron spear on his back. But before he left the city, he had not found his prey, or even before he even left his house, he encountered his first enemy.

A problem is the ice surface. At extremely low temperatures, the snow will freeze into ice, especially the thin ice flakes on the snow surface, which can directly cut clothes and pants, making the already cold weather even more severe.
