    After leaving the three towns, it seems that there are no bustling urban areas along the way.

    In fact, there are indeed no big cities along the route of G318 National Highway.

    Because the route Chen Xin chose runs through mountainous areas, there are no relatively developed cities in this area. The more developed cities in Hubei Province are either located in the west of Hubei Province or concentrated along the Yangtze River.

    This does not overlap with the direction Chen Xin wants to move, so it is not unusual for him to not be able to see the city.

    The scenery along the way is still similar to that on the previous road. It is pitch black everywhere and there is snow as far as the eye can see.

    Chen Xin reached out from the workbench and picked up a piece of dried fruit given by the staff from Hubei Province before and threw it into his mouth. Chen Xin was reluctant to chew it and just sipped the taste of the piece of dried fruit, feeling quite nostalgic.

    Thinking carefully, this seems to be the first time Chen Xin has eaten fruit after the disaster. Even though it is only dried fruit, it is already a very rare thing.

    Just eating dried fruits and recalling the appearance of the three towns and the pitch-black scenes along the way, Chen Xin still felt a huge difference.

    The country has begun post-disaster reconstruction in big cities, and small and medium-sized cities have also recovered from the disaster and begun to actively resume production.

    Because the state, army and police still exist, everything is not as bad as expected.

    But what should the situation be like in the countryside far away from the city?

    Chen Xin doesn¡¯t know and has not investigated, but judging from what he has seen so far and the information he has, I am afraid that the further away from the city, the worse the situation will be, right?

    ¡°After all, the further away from the city, the fewer places that could be called underground bunkers before the disaster. Most of them were probably just cellars in farmers¡¯ homes.

    Even in the three months before the disaster struck, the country urgently built shelters in villages and towns. Although it allowed most rural residents to have a place to escape the previous disaster, the time for the construction of those shelters was already very tight and it was very difficult for them to survive.  It is difficult to say that a sufficient number of shelters have been built to ensure that every shelter provides the necessary living conditions.

    Lack of food and clothing, shortage of medical services and medicines, insufficient supply of electricity and fresh water Chen Xin could count a lot of possible problems without even thinking about it.

    Especially for the hypoxia problem that occurred in his city before, the ventilation of a small shelter may be better, and with only one or two floors, it may not be deep enough and there will be no problems such as carbon dioxide deposition, but the same  A shelter that is not dug deep enough will hardly have a good thermal insulation effect.

    Even if the temperature can be kept as low as possible, if there is not enough heating facilities inside, it will still cool down quickly and become like a huge ice cellar.

    Although compared to directly facing the low temperature of minus 30 or 40 degrees, having a shelter to block the cold has allowed many people to survive, but under low temperature people will need more high-calorie food to maintain body temperature, and the low temperature environment  Servants are also more likely to get sick.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away and what kind of consequences the two will lead to Chen Xin, who has played the game "Ice and Steam", knows clearly that once the number of people hungry and sick reaches a certain level, riots and dissatisfaction will breed.

    In the game, unscrupulous people have to die of illness and starvation until they are dissatisfied to a certain level before they riot and drive away the managers. But in reality, I am afraid that when someone starts to die of illness, many problems and conflicts will break out, making things out of control.

    This also made Chen Xin couldn't help but worry about his parents. They lived with their relatives in their hometown. It was just a county town, and his parents and relatives did not live in the city.

    Although the people who live together are all relatives, they have lived together for several generations before the disaster. Even the ancestral hall dedicated to the ancestors is the same, so there is no chance that anything messy happened. Moreover, Chen Xin also went out of his way to  They explained how they would hoard supplies and build shelters, but Chen Xin was still full of worry.

    Just worrying can't make Chen Xin walk faster. His current speed is much faster than he expected. He has already walked halfway through the three towns, and the time spent has only been counted since he started.  Only five or six days have passed.

    This is already much faster than Chen Xin expected. According to his current speed, he is sure to arrive in Anhui Province within five days. Counting the return time, he can make it back within a month.

    Even if there are still things to deal with after receiving the parents, it will only be delayed for a few days at most, and there will not be too many variables.

      Thinking of this, Chen Xin felt a little more relieved.

    Now that he was the only one in the car, Chen Xin had to find a way to adjust his emotions so that he would not be too impatient. Otherwise, although the car could accelerate, it would also mean danger if the speed increased.

    This can be clearly seen from the snow-covered road in front of Chen Xin.

    The section of road in front of you was originally supposed to be built along the mountain. The road was dug out of the mountain, with a mountain wall on one side and a valley on the other.

    But now that the snow has covered the entire road, there is no trace of the road ahead. The snow has turned the entire hillside into a whole, making it impossible to see where the original road is.

    "The snow is really too thick!" Chen Xin looked at the snow in front of him and frowned, thinking about how he should cross this section of road.

    The road was covered with snow, and it was impossible to walk on the original road unless Chen Xin could clear the snow on the road.

    ¡°But Chen Xin has the time and energy to clear the snow, so he might as well find a way to change the route or upgrade his car so that it can drive on such slope-like snow.

    Although according to the design, even on such a sloping slope, this kind of crawler chassis has enough grip to ensure that the vehicle does not slide down the valley, but it is too risky to drive like this. If you are not careful, you will fall directly underneath.  in the valley.

    Chen Xin hesitated for a moment and let two reconnaissance drones fly, intending to scan the entire surrounding terrain to see if there was a gentle place where he could pass.

    Although there are mountains around here, the mountains are not steep or precipitous. There are still relatively flat places in the valley that can be passed.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that compared to taking the original road, the obvious distance from the valley is more winding.

    But now there is only this option in front of Chen Xin, unless he wants to spend more time walking on the other side of the highway.

    Taking the expressway can only be a last resort choice. Although the route of the expressway is straighter and the road has fewer ups and downs, building an expressway in a place with mountains everywhere will inevitably be filled with bridges and tunnels.

    ¡°The tunnel is okay, but as for the bridge

    Recalling the collapsed bridges he had seen along the way, Chen Xin directly told himself to give up this plan.

    After all, no matter how outstanding Yanguo¡¯s infrastructure strength is, the infrastructure madman cannot build a road bridge that can withstand the impact of a meteorite without collapsing.

    Soon, the drone sent the scanned results back to the map on the console, displaying them in color blocks.

    Looking at the yellow and red areas on the hillside, Chen Xin could only focus on the relatively gentle green area in the valley. While controlling the drone to continue scanning forward, he also restarted the car and walked along the  The green block sign continues forward.

    There is no danger in scanning while walking like this, but it also makes Chen Xin unable to increase his speed. He can only slowly squirm forward. The speed of the car has dropped to 10 kilometers per hour, which is comparable to a turtle speed.

    "It's really difficult to walk! Fortunately, there used to be a river in this valley, and this is a ditch. Otherwise, there might not even be a road." Chen Xin shook his head and compared the terrain scanned by the drone with the overlaid map.  Looking at the original river course in the valley marked on the map, I couldn't help but sigh.

    Just now, I thought my speed was not slow, but I immediately encountered a situation where I had to slow down. Chen Xin couldn¡¯t laugh or cry.

    Fortunately, he was in a good state of mind and did not become impatient because of this situation. He insisted on forcing himself to pass quickly, but he was able to accept the current speed.

    The speed of driving in this kind of wild country cannot be increased. After all, this is not like driving on the highway like before the disaster. The road is flat and straight, and there are no potholes or mud on the hardened road. As long as you don't speed, you can press the accelerator to the bottom.  Rush forward.

    When there are no roads in the wild, you must first plan a direction and route for yourself, and secondly, you must deal with complex road conditions in various environments.

    Problems such as stagnant water and mud are best solved. In this apocalyptic environment, these problems, together with a series of obstacles such as gravel, trees, and rivers on the road, have turned into snow-covered roads. Relatively speaking, the road conditions  It has indeed become more monotonous, but it is not getting better.

    If you have to make an analogy, driving in such an area completely covered with snow is actually the same as driving in the desert. It's just that the snow may be a little bit firmer compared to the desert, and the wheels or tracks are not as strong.  It's just that it's so easy to fall into it.

    And the snow itself also has potential dangers such as softness and collapse, or even holes under the snow.

    This is why Chen Xin did not start the operating system to drive automatically, but held the steering wheel himself.

    After all, human judgment and reaction capabilities are stronger than this kind of dull operating system.

    But this also made Chen Xin a little annoyed. When he was in the three towns before, he forgot to ask them for more resources, so he simply upgraded the operating system in the car to artificial intelligence.

    In that case, you can feel a lot more relaxed, right?  Chen Xin couldn't help but wandered for a moment.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Just go in.
