"Welcome to Paradise Twenty-Eight," Xiaomi said. "Paradise 28?" billions, so a separate city was built in the desert for them to live in," Xiaomi said scripturally. Afterwards, she took Xiaomu into the urban area, first came to the exhibition hall, and followed the procedure to watch a three-dimensional film first.Xiaomu saw that groups of pyramid cities were really dotted across the boundless desert in the west.One billion elderly people live here concentratedly, and the population density is the highest in the world.Xiaomu thought to himself, when will he see his parents?Xiaomi was not in a hurry, and took him around the city again.Different from the coastal city where Xiaomu lives, the wide road here is covered with Populus euphratica forest, which has been genetically modified to be as tall as an apricot root. There are snake-shaped, turtle-shaped and crane-shaped commercial buildings, restaurants and theaters in the forest.Crowds and groups of old people appeared, smiling all over their faces, hooking their shoulders and shoulders, the stream was endless and bustling.This seemed to be a scene in Xiaomu's long memory.When he was young, the cities along the eastern coast were not as cold as they are today.
