Two days later, in the evening, the weather forecast announced that there would be a round of heavy rainfall across the country.
Li Mu knew that a real flood disaster might really be coming.
I checked the specific weather forecast information and found that the rain in Yunshi should be the day after tomorrow, so I have one day to prepare for tomorrow.
Sun Yuan brewed a pot of tea and walked in. She said happily: "Sir, that's great. It rained the day after tomorrow and the temperature dropped."
Li Mu smiled calmly: "Yes! When it rains, the temperature will drop."
Sun Yuan poured a cup of tea and handed it over: "Sir, have some tea."
Li Mu took the tea and took a sip. The aroma of the tea overflowed: "My craftsmanship is getting better and better."
Sun Yuan said happily: "It's okay, sir, if you think it's good."
With that said, he walked up behind Li Mu and said, "Sir, let me give you a shoulder squeeze."
Li Mu said: "Okay."
Then, a pair of small hands pinched the shoulders gently but not heavily. Although they were not very skilled, it still felt quite good.
The next day, after morning exercise, Li Mu and Wang Qian held a small meeting to lay out all the measures to prepare for tomorrow's rain.
The unfinished building and Muwu Building will be fully closed starting tonight, and no one will be allowed to stay below the third floor. We will make full preparations for heavy rains and floods.
After the arrangements were made, Li Mu called Zhao Qing again.
"Hey, Sister Qing, have you read the weather forecast?"
Zhao Qing said happily: "Look, it will rain heavily tomorrow and the temperature will finally drop."
Li Mu said: "The temperature is about to drop, but have you ever thought that if it rains too much, there will be flooding!"
Zhao Qing hesitated and said: "No way, the weather is so hot, many rivers and lakes are about to dry up. If it rains next time, it will flood."
Li Mu said: "Then don't think about what is going on now. You just said that the rivers and lakes are almost drying up. Then let me ask you, where has the water in the rivers and lakes gone?"
Zhao Qing said: "The weather is too hot, it's all evaporated?"
Li Mu said: "You also know that evaporation means that all this water has evaporated into the sky, which means that there is now a large amount of water vapor in the sky. Tell me, what will happen if this water vapor turns into rain and falls..."
Zhao Qing was surprised and said: "There will be heavy rains and floods in many places."
Li Muchao: "Not only that, not only the water in rivers and lakes on land has evaporated, but with such high temperatures, a large amount of water in the ocean has also evaporated. You must know that the ocean occupies 70% of the earth's surface area. In comparison,
The water area of lakes and rivers is not worth mentioning at all.”
"What does this mean? You should know that the evaporation of water in the ocean is dozens or hundreds of times greater than that on land. Think about it, many polar glaciers have begun to melt. Why does the sea level not rise much? It is because a large amount of water vapor has evaporated.
In the air.”
"As long as a small part of this water vapor reaches the land, it will cause heavy rainfall and severe floods."
Zhao Qing was frightened.
"Li Mu, then...then...what should we do? If the rain is really so heavy, will the villa be flooded? Should we move westward with the others?"
Li Mu comforted him: "Don't be afraid. This is just my speculation. It may be just a heavy rain and it will pass after a little while. It's not that scary."
"Even if it is true as I said, the actual high temperature weather exceeding 40 degrees this year has lasted for less than two months, and the temperature exceeding 50 degrees has only lasted for just half a month. The amount of water vapor accumulated in the air is far less than expected.
There are many.”
"Even if there is a flood, if there is a wave of heavy rainfall in a short period of time, it is possible that one and two floors will be flooded. It is basically impossible to flood a three-story villa."
"You must know that we are in the Great Plains, and there are no particularly low-lying places. Where there is too much water, it will immediately flow elsewhere. If you want to flood the villa, this means that the average water depth in the entire plain area exceeds ten meters. At present, this
At this stage, it won’t rain so heavily.”
Hearing what Li Mu said, Zhao Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then she cried and said: "Even if one or two floors are flooded, we can hide on the third floor of the villa, but the water and electricity are cut off. What should we do?"
Li Mu said: "I can give you one more choice and make your own decision. This is a building here, and the bottom floor has been reinforced. The impact of floods will not be great. There is water and electricity and it will not affect normal life. However, the management is relatively strict.
As free as I am outside, I may have to take on some necessary work in the future."
"You can choose to continue living in the villa, and I will send someone to bring you a batch of water and food that can be stored for a long time; you can also choose to come here, but you need to abide by the rules when you come here, and you are not so free."
Zhao Qing hesitated for a while, and then asked about the situation in the building. Li Mu simply said what he could.
Zhao Qing said: "I want to discuss it with Huihui and others before making a decision."
Li Mu said: "Okay, but you have to give me a reply before noon. If you want to come over, I will send someone to pick you up; if you want to stay in the villa, I will send someone to deliver a batch of water and food supplies to you, and you have to do the same.
Be prepared and move your living quarters and useful supplies at home to the third floor."
Zhao Qing said: "Okay, thank you, Li Mu."
Li Mu said: "You're welcome, please give me an answer as soon as possible."
…
At noon, Zhao Qing called.
He said in a weak tone: "Sorry Li Mu, we have been discussing for a long time and are used to living here. Since the rainwater cannot reach the third floor and the danger is not great, I still want to continue living here. Thank you."
Li Mu said: "It's nothing. You should also be prepared over there. I will send someone to deliver a batch of water, food and supplies to you soon. Come on!"
Zhao Qing was moved and said: "Thank you, thank you Li Mu."
After hanging up the phone, Li Mu ordered someone to send a batch of water, food and supplies, but he didn't think anything of their reluctance to come.
For several outstanding-looking women, it is appropriate to be cautious in this hot and apocalyptic world. Especially as Li Mu said, the management here is strict and requires certain tasks, and there is not much freedom.
They don't know the situation of the building, nor Li Mu's identity here. In this era of gradually chaotic order, suddenly going to a new place is still a new place that restricts freedom. Even with Li Mu, an old classmate, they can't
Willing to be too adventurous.
In the apocalypse, who knows what people in despair will do.
…
Time passed like this, and Li Mu was aware that a flood disaster would occur. There were so many smart people in the country, and there were many people who had a premonition that a large-scale flood disaster would occur.
On this day, not only Li Mu was making preparations, but also various places, including government departments, were making preparations.
Fortunately, the economy is developing well now. There are high-rise buildings rising everywhere in the city. Even the villages in the city are all small high-rise buildings with three, four, five or six floors, or even seven or eight floors. One or two floors can still be sustained due to flooding.
Liveable.
Only a few residents need to be resettled. It happens that many people in Yun City have recently moved westward, and a large number of houses have become vacant. Resettling these people is naturally not a problem.
The biggest problem is in rural areas. Unlike cities, it is difficult to leave one's homeland due to economic and conceptual reasons. Compared with cities, there are many fewer people migrating westward.
Although the economy has developed in recent years, a large number of two- and three-story small western-style buildings have been built. There are still a large number of houses that do not meet the requirements. When heavy rains fall, floods occur, and they are easily submerged or collapsed.
Although the government has made emergency preparations long ago, it is still difficult to relocate such a large population in one day. It can only allow some people who can visit relatives and friends to go to their homes as much as possible.
The remaining people were driven to vacant high-rise buildings in the city one by one, day and night, and settled in batches.
It was not until the first drop of rain fell the next day that the basic resettlement and transfer work was completed.
…
On the 33rd floor of the Muwu Building, standing hundreds of meters above the ground, standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the city in front of me. As the black clouds rolled, the wind howled, the thunder roared, raindrops as big as beans fell down.
.
It was sparse at first, then gradually became more and more thick, until it was dense and turned into a downpour.
It was as if a hole had opened in the sky, and rain poured down like a river. The city, which had been exposed to high temperatures for nearly two months, suddenly encountered this stream of rain, causing large amounts of water vapor to evaporate in many places.
This water vapor forms a white mist that clings to the city, making it look misty and misty. The city seems to be floating in the clouds for a while.
Unfortunately, the endless rain falling from the sky quickly disrupted all this. The water vapor was dispersed, and the temperature of the building and the ground quickly dropped under the endless rain.
The city that was still covered in mist just now returned to its original appearance in just a few minutes under the heavy rain.
The Muwu Building was originally located in a suburban area. Li Mu was hundreds of meters above the ground and set up a high-power telescope, covering a radius of more than ten miles and seeing clearly.
In the urban-rural area in the distance, as heavy rain fell, countless rainwater flowed along the asphalt road and into the ditches on both sides of the road.
The ditch is connected to the small river. At this time, countless streams of water flow along the ditch and rush towards the river. The river that has evaporated and has exposed the river bed is rejuvenated.
Many fish that have survived the high temperature are jumping happily on the water surface and spitting bubbles. The water level of the river gradually increases as more and more water flows in, and they swarm downstream.
It rained heavily all day and all night. When I woke up in the morning, the rain had subsided a little. Li Mu used a telescope to look at it. There was water everywhere in the city, and the rivers in the distance were also full. The overflowing rivers were swarming downstream.
go.
As the rain has become lighter, there are still many transport and emergency vehicles on the road, constantly passing through, making the whole city a little more energetic. At least everyone feels confident and relieved when they see these transport and emergency vehicles.
At this time, Sun Yuan came over: "Sir, the temperature outside has dropped to thirty-five degrees."
Li Mu smiled and said: "It will be fine if it comes down. Such heavy rain has affected lines in many places and has caused power outages. When the temperature drops, everyone can make do without air conditioners."
Sun Yuan said: "This time it rained all day and all night. It was just right. The rivers and lakes were filled up and the temperature dropped. It would be nice if the rain stopped today."
Li Mu looked out the window, at the large black clouds in the distance, and shook his head: "There is still a lot of water vapor in the sky! It's not possible for the rain to stop today. I just hope that the rain doesn't last too long.
."
Sun Yuan looked at the black clouds in the distance with a hint of worry on her face: "Oh! I just hope that the floods in the future will not be too serious."
…
Li Mu was right. In the afternoon, the rain became heavier again. Heavy rain fell from the sky, and the whole city was once again shrouded in rain.
Li Mu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and watched for a while. Hearing the dense patter of rain hitting the floor-to-ceiling window, he called Zhao Qing.
Since the drainage system of the villa is good, there is very little water on the road. The rain has become lighter in the morning, and the temperature has also dropped. Several girls also went for a walk outside with umbrellas, and they seemed to be in a good mood.
However, the sudden heavy rain in the afternoon made them a little worried. They were afraid that the flood would be serious and the villa would be flooded, so they were actively making preparations.
After finishing the call, I went to the sports center downstairs and played with bow and arrow for a while. Then I went to the martial arts area. The area of 300 square meters is neither small nor big.
After doing a set of punches, Li Mu came to the weapon rack. There were eighteen kinds of weapons here. Li Mu majored in Xingyi Quan, which also included specialized weapon skills.
The weapons used in Xingyi Quan are mostly knives, spears, swords and sticks. And unlike ordinary weapons, the usage of weapons in Xingyi Quan is roughly the same as that of unarmed boxing. It can be said to be a combination of boxing and weapons.
.
Li Mu drew out his sword and made a sword flower. In the past few worlds, he had been running and practicing boxing. His sword skills had fallen behind a bit. These days, he gradually picked it up.
In terms of swordsmanship in Xingyiquan, Li Mu majored in Five Elements Swordsmanship and Twelve Shape Swordsmanship.
In a general sense, the Five Elements Sword Techniques are the Pi Sword, the Beng Sword, the Cobalt Sword, the Cannon Sword, and the Horizontal Sword; the Twelve Shaped Swords correspond to the twelve shapes of Xingyi Quan, including dragon-shaped swords, tiger-shaped swords, and monkey-shaped swords.
Basically, all the moves that can be applied in Xingyiquan can also be expressed in swordsmanship.
After practicing the Five Elements Swordsmanship and the Twelve Elements Swordsmanship for a while, and playing with the Xingyi Sword and Liuhe Spear for a while, I was covered in a thin layer of sweat. I jumped into the swimming pool and swam a few laps, and then went to the entertainment center upstairs.
I read a book and drank tea, and soon it was evening. The rain outside still didn’t stop. I went to the 33rd floor and set up a telescope to take a look. There was water accumulation in many places in the city. Apparently the drainage system had been damaged.
Operating at full capacity.
In this situation, he felt powerless and passed the time for a while before going back to rest.
The next morning, the rain became lighter again, but the entire city was also occupied by water. The water on the ground was already one or two feet deep on average. The buildings and buildings in the city were like isolated islands. Suddenly, Yunshi
It became a city on the water.
After contacting Zhao Qing, the situation was very bad. Due to some reinforcement measures taken by Li Mu in advance, the rainwater had not yet poured into the villa, but the water in the yard was already more than half a foot deep.
If the rain continues, water will eventually pour into the villa. Fortunately, they have all moved to the third floor and have prepared countermeasures.
I looked out the window again, and saw that there were still modified emergency and disaster relief vehicles passing by on the road from time to time. This heavy rain had not yet caused a large-scale disaster, and these disaster relief personnel and vehicles were indispensable.
Time soon came to night, and the rain intensified again, with heavy rain falling from the sky. Li Mu looked at the dark night, wondering what the scene would be like outside tomorrow.
