Chapter 694
Then there was crustal movement, the ocean flooded the land, and they were forced to live on the island.
People all forgot that the predicted eternal night never came.
Could it be that this is coming?
Of course, eternal night is terrifying.
The temperature drops sharply, light disappears, plants gradually die, and the entire ecosystem is destroyed.
Phytoplankton in the sea rely on photosynthesis to survive. Due to lack of light, they will die in large numbers, causing the bottom layer of the marine food chain to collapse.
Then small fish and invertebrates that feed on phytoplankton will also die in large numbers.
The temperature in the sea will also drop sharply, which will not only cause fish deaths but also create new troubles for people fishing.
The warship also immediately responded to the emergency.
Captain Chen first gathered thousands of survivors on the island and emphasized several points using a loudspeaker.
First, the mother ship will take out the fuel generator and fuel to ensure electricity supply on the island.
With the help of the navy, people reinforced and kept their wooden houses warm. If the eternal night continued, the temperature would definitely drop, which was completely different from the previous hot situation.
So, survivors need to keep warm.
Fortunately, everyone has experienced extreme cold and has their own ideas on how to strengthen their houses and keep warm.
The second is that each family should hurry to harvest the crops and vegetables they grow, even if they are not ripe, so as to avoid wasting more than five months of hard work due to lack of sunlight in the later stage.
There were groans from the crowd.
The growing period of taro is 6 months, and it will be mature in another month.
Harvesting at this time will obviously reduce the yield by half.
People are very frustrated.
Many people also lament the breadfruit, a plant that grows in hot areas.
After the eternal night, the breadfruit tree will soon wither and die.
It seemed that there was no point in so many of them moving to Island No. 2.
Captain Chen spoke in a steady voice, reassuring everyone with the demeanor of a great general. He said, "Don't worry, the warship won't ignore us when times get tough. We all need to work together and cooperate sincerely to overcome this difficult time!"
A few particularly tactful people shouted loudly, "Thank you army" and "Thank you Captain Chen" and so on.
Captain Chen waved his hand, the dim light illuminating his resolute face.
He continued, "Third, after the Eternal Night, the risks for our fishing team going out to sea will greatly increase. Therefore, we need to discuss a set of rules for how to go out to sea for fishing in the future. In addition to the military fishing team, if you want to fish privately, it is best to go with the military and not go out on your own.
The eternal night has begun, and no one knows what will happen.
They now live on the sea, but the sea changes rapidly and a small tsunami may cause the ship to be in distress.
After the meeting, everyone dispersed.
This island consists of a main island and four small islands surrounding it.
The main island is the largest, and is where the crops and breadfruit trees are grown.
The other islands are very small and can accommodate a small number of people.
Therefore, when the pirates took over this place, they concentrated all the survivors on this island. The middle and high-level pirates built gorgeous villas on the island and lived in a few households scattered around.
Now the warships have arranged for most of the survivors to live on the main island, and there are not many people living on other small islands.
After the meeting, Captain Chen planned to move those people to this small island. The visibility was poor in the night, so unified management would be best.
The Zhou family walked towards their wooden house.
"This eternal night came too suddenly." Zhou Jianghai stood in front of his simple wooden house, looking at the dark sky, his tone tinged with worry: "What should I do?"
After Zhong Tiyun entered the house, she quickly took out two hoes. She wore a headlamp on her head, and the dim light illuminated her face.
