Chapter 291: Children's Words Are Flowing Away with the Wind

When the second hand on the watch turned to twelve, the doors of the caves on both sides opened at the same time.

However, the four of them have been through so much that caution has been ingrained into their bones.

Everyone first carefully pushed the door open a crack, and then joy instantly filled their eyes.

The sunlight, which was not as sharp as a knife and could not even make it impossible for people to open their eyes, came in through the crack in the door.

Shi Jiaojiao suppressed her inner joy and pushed the cave door open.

The sky outside is indeed black!

It was completely silent outside. The red sun had disappeared, replaced by a silvery-white moon hanging high in the sky.

But this was not the only thing that surprised Shi Jiaojiao.

The temperature actually returned to normal in such a short time!

She was afraid that the temperature outside would be low, so she and Mu Ci put on winter clothes and also reminded Wang Jia and the others.

Who would have thought it was not necessary at all.

Just then, excited cheers suddenly came from not far away.

When Shi Jiaojiao heard this, she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth, and then she pulled Mu Ci out the door.

Because they didn't know when the moon would disappear, the four of them just jumped excitedly in front of their own doorsteps. No one visited other people's homes, for fear that if something unexpected happened they would not have enough time to hide back in the cave.

But the two caves are not far from each other, so not being able to visit each other does not affect everyone's shouting conversation.

It’s just like the folk songs we sang before.

"Jiaojiao, we have a safe dinner tomorrow. Let's make braised giant rat meat. I'll be the giant rat!"

This is Wang Jia's voice.

Shi Jiaojiao was also infected by the joy in her voice, and shouted at the top of her voice: "Then I'll provide Mu Ci, seasoning, and staple food!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an immediate burst of laughter.

Mu Ci rubbed Shi Jiaojiao's head hard, with tenderness in his eyes.

Wang Jia jumped excitedly at the door and almost did two somersaults to express her joy.

Oh my god, I can finally see the moon again.

Why didn’t she think the moon was so round, so beautiful, and so gentle before?

As the sky gradually turned white, Shi Jiaojiao and Mu Ci both felt the temperature change keenly.

It's cooling down again.

Shi Jiaojiao shouted at the top of her voice: "Hurry back to the cave, the temperature is going to drop."

After saying that, without waiting for a response, he and Mu Ci hurried back home.

When Wang Jia and Tang Wei heard Shi Jiaojiao's voice, their feet moved subconsciously before their brains had time to react.

After closing the door, the two still felt a little reluctant to leave.

Although there is a two-hour safe period during the day, it is completely different from at night.

Not only is the annoying sun missing, the moon also represents hope.

This proves that the polar day has begun to end.

Tang Wei sat on a chair and sighed, "We have been watching the sun for a year. It would be great if it could disappear."

After he finished speaking, he thought he would get his girlfriend's approval, but Wang Jia was frightened by his words and immediately rushed over to cover his mouth: "Children's words are innocent and will be blown away by the wind."

If the sun disappears, wouldn’t that be polar night?

The polar day is so unbearable, how can the polar night be comfortable?

Wang Jia looked at Tang Wei seriously and said, "Pooh three times quickly, and spit out everything you just said."

Tang Wei also reacted at this time and started to make spitting sounds continuously.

You know, his unlucky physique has never disappeared, who knows if it will turn into a crow's mouth?

After he finished spitting, he put his hands together and muttered, "Bad things don't work, good things do..."

On the other hand, Mu Ci picked up his watch the moment he entered the cave. Although there was an error of a few seconds, it was basically certain that the moon appeared for ten minutes this time.

The nights gradually lasted longer.

Shi Jiaojiao was thinking about her plans after the polar day ended.

It was necessary to move out of the cave, and their next destination was the refuge base.

Now you can pack up your things.

She also has to find time to quietly put the two cars back to the farm tomorrow. Of course, she has to disguise them. After all, there are locusts and giant rats, but the cars are brand new. It doesn't make sense.

Because they were too excited tonight, the four of them couldn't sleep.

Wang Jia was chatting non-stop on the walkie-talkie.

Of course, there were only three people chatting, and Mu Ci just sat on the side to accompany Shi Jiaojiao.

It was not until 2:30 in the morning that Mu Ci forced the symposium to end.

"Don't you want to eat braised giant rat meat tomorrow?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone shut up.

Shi Jiaojiao saw Mu Ci's expression and knew that if she continued to endure, there would definitely be punishment waiting for her tomorrow.

To be honest, she is living a healthier life now than when she was in college.

Mu Ci didn't mean to pour cold water on everyone, but staying up late is indeed a bad habit.

Staying up late means wasting energy. In the past, I could take some supplements, or see a Chinese doctor if that didn’t work. But now that I have lost energy, it is not easy to make it up. This is when there is enough space and supplies.

Not to mention Wang Jia and Tang Wei, whose health is even worse. They should take advantage of the rare calm period before the end of the polar day to recuperate. Who knows if they will have such an opportunity again in the future.

Wang Jia and Tang Wei didn't think as far as Mu Ci did. They were simply craving for the braised giant rat meat.

They don't lack giant rat meat, but they lack seasoning.

No, maybe they still lack Mu Ci's skills.

What if Mu Ci gets angry and tomorrow’s dinner party is ruined?

At this time, the official leaders of City S were still awake and all gathered in the conference room.

The end of the polar day has been confirmed, and they have also contacted the country's father.

What is worrying now is that no one knows what the next disaster will be.

The shelter base is undoubtedly much safer than the city, but when and how to move is still a problem.

The location of the refuge base is not very close, it is between S City and the neighboring city.

Before the end of the world, that place was a secret military base with a large number of weapons.

A strong armed force can also give survivors a greater sense of security and deter criminals.

Apart from this, the terrain there is higher, flat and open, with no buildings around.

When we were first choosing a location for the base, we discussed whether we should choose a place with many buildings so that the survivors could move in directly without having to rebuild it brick by brick.

But after research from all sides, the idea was finally rejected.

It is convenient to have ready-made buildings, but the buildings before the end of the world cannot withstand the continuous natural disasters.

For example, during the current polar day, the houses in City S are completely unable to block out light.

The buildings in the current shelter are all made of high-tech materials developed by the Post-Apocalyptic Research Institute. Otherwise, how could the materials integrated by the authorities in the early stages be used up so quickly?

Of course, in addition to this, there is also help provided by the state.

The capital has good conditions and abundant talents, and the types of materials researched are much richer than those of local officials.

However, in order to facilitate the transportation of materials, a high-tech paint was finally distributed to various provinces and cities.

Although ordinary people do not understand the principles behind it, they can still intuitively feel the magic brought by this paint.

Not to mention anti-freeze and heat insulation, it can also increase the strength of building materials and prevent buildings from cracking and collapsing to the greatest extent.

It can be said that as long as you can reach the refuge base, the danger can be reduced by at least 50%.

The other 50% depends on God's mood.
