Chapter 1 Reborn
"Jing Shu's sister, wait for me in the corner of the city." This is the origin of Jing Shu's name.
Under the iron-blooded management of the town government, Jingshu's family managed to survive until the ninth year of the apocalypse, but by this time they were starving all over the place, and every bite of food was extremely precious.
At this time, Jingshu accidentally activated the Rubik's Cube and obtained a portable space where she could farm, finally allowing her parents to live a life with enough to eat.
But who would have thought that after being careful for so long in the last days, they would fall into the gutter of their loved ones!
Jingshu regretted that she should not have asked her parents to help her aunt. Her mother always felt guilty: "Your uncle's family died miserably. Now only your aunt is left. Let's secretly give your aunt some food."
But I didn't expect that my aunt would come to the door with her family later: "Sister, I knew you had found Wang Congsi's secret grain depot, otherwise where would you get all this food? Please take us there, so that you don't have to send so much food to me all the time. Isn’t that enough? Don’t worry, only our two families will know this secret from now on.”
Jing's mother was stunned and angry for a moment. How could she explain this? I'm helping you for the sake of my last relative, how can I take it for granted?
The angry Jingshu kicked the person out and severed the relationship.
Later, my father's best friend, Uncle Sun, came with his wife and children.
When he knelt down and took out the 100,000 yuan that he owed his father for thirteen years, he held it up and trembled, crying: "For the sake of helping you before, please help us!"
He was kind to his father, who had no choice but to host a family of three, and they held candles and talked at night.
"If this money could have been used ten years earlier, now, in this apocalyptic world, its only use is to ignite fires. Besides, the money owed to us for the kindness back then should be repaid." Jing Shu sneered, lighting up the banknotes and throwing them away. Into the furnace.
"It's hard to repay a debt of gratitude." After his father said this, he thought of his aunt's troubles in the past few days, and sighed: "Everyone in this world is forced by food."
Who would have thought that on the second night, Uncle Sun and his aunt came in together to kill each other. In the chaos, Jingshu resisted too much and was burped, but she also managed to save a few people before she died.
"Oh, you just wait for the town government's ruling tomorrow, no one can escape." Jingshu thought vaguely before losing consciousness.
It's a pity that the Rubik's Cube space cannot hold people.
…
I don't know how long it took, but I felt that my throat was burning, as if it was about to burst out of fire. Jingshu coughed a few times and suddenly woke up. She sat up suddenly and looked at the surrounding environment in confusion.
What comes into view is a familiar sight: a wall of bookcases and a computer desk, as well as a familiar large soft bed.
Isn't this what my bedroom looked like before the end of the world came?
Jingshu's heart was beating wildly, and she fumbled for her phone on the bed with some trembling. She pulled it out and saw: November 1, 2022, Tuesday, 10:39.
Two months before the end of the world! She went back ten years! That 22-year-old girl who just graduated from college!
"Reborn?!" Jingshu clutched the quilt tightly, her knuckles turning white. She understood that it was not a dream. Ten years of wasted life, hunger, and fear were so clearly engraved in her bones that she pinched herself countless times. Purple, I hope it was a nightmare, but unfortunately I didn't wake up.
As if remembering something, Jingshu got out of bed and opened the curtains. The soft sunlight shone in instantly. Jingshu felt the sunshine that she had not seen in ten years. All these years flashed through her mind like a movie. At the beginning of the film, I remembered the chaotic scene before death again.
Jingshu clenched her fist, she would definitely not make the same mistake again in this life.
She was happy to finally see the sunshine, she hated it, and she was angry at herself for not fighting. Jingshu tasted all the joy, anger, sorrow, and joy in an instant, leaving only a blank in her head.
After a few minutes, the familiar hunger made Jingshu calm down. It turned out that she was hungry after oversleeping. Jingshu ran to the kitchen and found a bowl of milk, eggs, corn and steamed buns warm in the pot.
Jingshu grabbed the steamed bun and wolfed it down, picked up the milk and drank it, then picked up the corn and took a bite. The chewy texture and fragrant glutinous taste instantly exploded in her mouth. At this moment, Jingshu felt that the happiest thing in the world was Can eat whole grains.
Although she had a portable space that could be used for farming in the ninth year of the apocalypse, unfortunately many species were extinct at that time, and there were fewer seeds to find. Most people could grow things to eat and survive. extravagant hope.
Jingshu carefully peeled the eggs, bit off some of the egg whites first, and it was fragrant in the mouth, then evenly sprinkled salt on the egg yolks, put them all in her mouth and chewed them slowly, leaving endless aftertaste.
High-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods. High-end ingredients like eggs, whether they are boiled eggs, fried eggs, scrambled eggs, steamed eggs, marinated eggs, tea leaves, can make the kids next door cry without coating them in egg liquid.
Young people who have never experienced famine disaster will never understand why the old man picked up the rice grains that fell on the ground and ate them without feeling dirty.
In order to eat well in the future, Jingshu thought about her Rubik's Cube space.
The third-order Rubik's Cube is a Rubik's Cube toy composed of 3*3*3 small cubes. During the game, the colors on the 6 sides are mixed, and after conversion, they are restored to their original shape.
When Jingshu was 16 years old, she was the fastest high school student in Wucheng to recover in 6.8 seconds, but she no longer felt it was interesting.
When he was 18 years old, his father Jing'an gave him a coming-of-age gift, Rubik's Revenge, a fourth-order Rubik's cube with a 4*4*4 cubic structure. The English name means revenge.
After a few days of trying without success, Jingshu never touched it again. Boredom started to play the apocalypse again, and the recovery speed became faster and faster. However, it was not activated until the ninth year. Jingshu also thought about activating it for a long time. conditions of.
"It should be the speed. Only that time it took less than 30 seconds to activate the Rubik's Cube space." Jingshu returned to her bedroom and found the fourth-level Rubik's Cube from a pile of miscellaneous items in the storage box. The one that can be used for farming. portable space.
Jingshu moved her hands, took out the timer, took a deep breath, and began to twist the Rubik's Cube after a 'ding' sound. As time passed bit by bit, the variegated Rubik's Cube in Jingshu's hand began to twist from the center point. It became neat and tidy at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then the colors became tidy one by one. When the last rotation was aligned, Jing Shu pressed the timer with a 'pop' sound.
"00:28:59!"
Success!
