Survival at the end of the world: Human beings shrink 100 times at the beginning

Chapter 19
19, the night is gentle

After some operations, Qin Yue quickly repaired the two bearings of the "castle".

I checked again if it was not broken and found the same problem. If it is not repaired in time, it may break and overturn at some point in the future.

So it was simply repaired.

Seeing how quick Qin Yue's hands and feet were, Niu Dayong couldn't help but sigh, "If you hadn't used your superpower to repair this, instead of Uncle Liu, using a hammer and chisel to tinkle, I don't know, I would have been repairing it for the year of the monkey and the moon of the horse."

Qin Yue didn't speak.

I looked around and found that it was basically pitch black. According to the past, the campus should be brightly lit at this time, especially in the teaching building. The courtyard illuminated by the lights is very bright, and there are street lights in every road section. But at this time, these lights seemed to be on strike and none of them were on.

Niu Dayong looked at Qin Yue who was in a daze, "Qin Yue, what are you looking at?"

Qin Yue blew his nose and said, "Have you noticed that although the lights in the teaching building are all out, the street lights on the side of the road are also out?"

Niu Dayong didn't understand what Qin Yue meant and replied casually, "Human beings have shrunk. It's probably because no one opened it."

Xia Zhiwei walked out of the "castle" at some point and stood behind Qin Yue without knowing it, explaining, "It's probably when the disaster comes and all the power is shut down."

"Then I wonder if the phone can still make calls?"

Mi Xiaoyu walked over and questioned.

"It's probably impossible!" Xia Zhiwei said.

"Yes, I also carried my mobile phone with me at the time. Unexpectedly, after shrinking, the mobile phone disappeared." Liu Tonghui said.

In a daze, he reached out and touched his pocket again, but he found nothing for a long time.

Not even a grain of sand.

Xia Zhiwei said, "It is estimated that this time it is not just a power problem, but also electronic products and other things are paralyzed."

"Hey, sister Zhiwei, how do you know this?"

Mi Xiaoyu became curious.

"I also summarized the results based on what I saw and heard."

After a pause, Xia Zhiwei explained, "Of course I am not a god, and these phenomena can only be described as such for the time being."

Mi Xiaoyu nodded to express understanding.

"Then what do you think about us shrinking? Of course, I mean why are we suddenly shrunk? Isn't this strange?"

Qin Yue stood up and asked.

This question seemed to be what everyone wanted to ask, so for a moment, everyone focused their attention on Xia Zhiwei.

Xia Zhiwei pondered for a moment and then answered in a normal manner.

"Why are we shrinking? All I can say about this question is that we may be controlled by some kind of force. Of course, you can also understand it as a UFO. In addition, it may also be the ulterior motives of us humans. I mean humans have created some kind of genetic weapons. This is very possible in our extremely civilized society. As Dr. Adam Smith of the United States said, our science will eventually lead us to destruction."

At this point, Xia Zhiwei paused.

She seemed to be easing her tone, but everyone knew that she was still holding some words in her heart, and these words seemed to be the key point.

"and then?"

Everyone almost shouted in unison.

After pondering for a moment, Xia Zhiwei finally said, "In the end, it might be—"

She choked again symbolically.

"What is it?"

Everyone couldn't help but shouted in unison.

"God!" Xia Zhiwei said concisely and concisely.

At this time, everyone couldn't help but want to laugh. How could everyone who has received nine years of compulsory education believe in such things as "God".

Although everyone knows that "god" is the spiritual sustenance of Westerners, "god" is called God and priest by them.

However, because Xia Zhiwei could say so many useful things in one breath at this stall, everyone had no reason to laugh at her. At most, they just felt that the next few sentences she said were a bit exaggerated.

Seeing everyone stunned, Xia Zhiwei went on to explain, "You don't seem to believe the 'god' I just said."

"Isn't this nonsense? How far has science developed these days, who would still believe in such mysterious things." Niu Dayong muttered in his heart.

Qin Yue and Liu Tonghui listened quietly and planned to believe it completely.

At the same time, even Mi Xiaoyu, a patient with secondary disease, also concentrated his attention and listened.

Xia Zhiwei continued to explain, "There seems to be a saying that the end of science is metaphysics, right? Well, believe it or not, there is someone in our world who said that. Our civilization develops The more advanced it is, the closer it is to metaphysics, and then something unexpected will appear, such as the things in the microcosm—particles, and now we have even proved the soul after death. Something out of metaphysics, maybe this thing is like God we can’t see, but it really exists.”

"Clap clap clap..."

Suddenly there was a burst of applause from the crowd.

The next moment, Mi Xiaoyu almost jumped up and praised angrily, "Well said, well said! Sister Zhiwei is so amazing! She is indeed the 'encyclopedia' of our class."

In Class [-], Grade [-], almost everyone knows that Xia Zhiwei, in addition to being the 'Test Master', is also nicknamed the 'Encyclopedia' by others. She has a smart mind and a wide range of knowledge. She can understand almost any unpopular knowledge. .

Another characteristic of her person is that she knows almost everyone in the class as if she has had a close relationship with them, but almost no one knows about her own affairs, and she herself will not reveal anything easily, so everyone He also gave her the nickname "Miss Blind Box".

...In short, I just want to express a mysterious meaning.

After being teased like this by Mi Xiaoyu, everyone immediately clapped their hands in confusion.

It doesn’t matter whether you understand or not.

……

After a while, someone murmured and asked, "Are we going to continue on our way now?"

This voice was obviously made by Liu Tonghui. After human beings shrunk, the voices of older people were obviously deeper, and the tone would be very drawn out, without any crispness at all, like a broken drum being beaten.

When I asked this question, no one seemed to be able to answer it for a while.

Of course, the main thing is to look at Niu Dayong. He is the one pulling the cart. If he says it’s okay, then it’s okay. If it’s not, then it’s okay.

But Niu Dayong was not very active either and pretended to be silent in the dark night.

On the other hand, Mi Xiaoyu was blunt and asked straight to the point, "Hey, Niu Dali, where is Niu Dali? Where is your face? Why can't I see clearly."

After being called like this, Niu Dayong immediately came to life and stretched out his face.

After humans become smaller, their heads appear larger than the rest of their bodies, so in this dark night, faces are more accurately judged.

Mi Xiaoyu saw Niu Dayong clearly, and said seriously, "Niu Dali, can you still keep going?"

"It's possible, but I can't see the road at all now."

Niu Dayong said in embarrassment, "I don't even have anything around me that I can use as a reference."

Mi Xiaoyu looked up at the sky and said whimsically, "Don't you look up at the sky? There are also roofs, so that the general direction is correct,"

As soon as he said this, he was immediately refuted by Xia Zhiwei.

"Before humans shrunk, it was possible to locate directions in this way, but after humans shrunk, it definitely won't work. It's like navigating in driving mode while walking. No matter how sensitive a person is at this time, they will not be able to detect signs that they have moved. .”

Xia Zhiwei explained impatiently, "So let's forget it. Let's all stay quietly for the night. It won't be too late to set off the next day. It's just a good time to recuperate, especially since Dayong's mental energy was lost while pulling the cart along the way. , you can recover at this time, and of course Qin Yue can, too."

At this moment, there was a "squeaking" sound coming from a distance, maybe from a distance...
