Chapter 84: Natural disaster begins, sandstorm
"Sister Lily, Sister Lily."
The toast bread was being baked in the oven. Nanxing baked five portions at once, so only two batches were needed.
While Nanxing was sitting in a soft chair and leisurely drinking coffee, the voice of the little girl named Alice came from the door.
She walked over and opened the door, Alice smiled widely.
"Sister Lily, this is for you!" Alice raised her hands, holding a small handful of red berries.
"Thank you, Alice. Here, I give this to you." Nanxing did not refuse. She took the berries and grabbed a handful of candy from the candy jar on the shelf next to her and gave it to Alice.
"No need, no need, Sister Lily." Alice waved her hand and turned to leave.
"I like these fruits very much. I am very happy that Alice gave them to me, so Alice must accept the candy." Nanxing took Alice's hand and stuffed the candy into her pocket.
Alice looked at the candy in her pocket and swallowed. "Then, I'll take it then?"
"Well, go and play." Nanxing patted her head and said gently.
"Thank you, Sister Lily." Alice covered her pocket with her hands and smiled brightly, then skipped off to find her grandma.
Nanxing curled her eyes, a hint of ambiguous light flashed in them, and closed the RV door.
Nanxing put the berries aside and began to process the wild vegetables.
There are a lot of wild vegetables in spring, so she wants to take advantage of this time to store more dried wild vegetables so that she can eat them in winter.
Sort the wild vegetables, blanch them in hot water, and then dry them in the sun.
The weather is just right today, and the sun is shining brightly. Nanxing put them under the window of the planting area on the second floor to dry.
If there is sunshine tomorrow, then one more day of sun exposure should be enough.
If not, you can just bake it in the oven. Nanxing doesn't want to waste electricity unless it is necessary.
She only had 1000L of gasoline, apart from what was in the tank.
Time passed quickly in the busy schedule. When Nanxing put the second batch of bread into the oven, Alice came knocking on the door with her little friends.
Nanxing opened the door and saw a group of innocent and cute children mixed with some naughty kids. Nanxing used candy as a reward and made a deal with them to collect wild vegetables for her.
Of course, she would not accept the malicious use of weeds to confuse wild vegetables.
Nanxing glanced in the direction of the Leir brothers' camp. The important figures of the three forces were not in the camp, and it was unknown when they would come back.
"Lily." Daisy's voice.
Nanxing turned her head with a guilty and timid expression.
"Daisy..."
"I want to change the water for you." Daisy said sternly, throwing the two bags over and emphasizing, "I want hot water."
"No need, Daisy, just tell me directly if you want." Nanxing waved her hand quickly, rejecting Daisy's request for exchange.
"I said I'll trade with you, and I won't take advantage of an orphan like you." Daisy said angrily.
Nanxing's expression darkened a little and he lowered his head.
This time, Daisy was no longer surrounded by people. Juan died in the zombie attack, and the others were also injured to varying degrees.
"..." Nan Xing pursed her lips and asked in a low voice, "Daisy, how much hot water do you want? Do you want it boiled?"
"Two kettles will be enough, no need to boil." Daisy turned her face away with a cold expression.
"Yeah." Nanxing returned to the car and brought a bucket of 65-degree hot water to Daisy. Daisy took the bucket, turned around and left.
"I'll bring the bucket to you later."
Nanxing looked at Daisy's back and glanced at the two sacks placed by the RV door.
Quite a lot.
Since she gave it to him, Nanxing would not be polite. He directly used the faucet outside the car to clean and sort them, and then took them back to the car for processing.
It was not until dark and when Nanxing was about to go to bed that he heard the sound of a car engine.
It should be Ke'er and the others who have returned.
Nanxing ignored it, pulled up the quilt and continued to sleep.
…
"Natural disaster has begun, extreme weather sandstorm disaster - please be careful, players."
…
A wind disaster.
Nanxing opened and closed her eyes, it was better than she thought.
…
Day 34 of the game——
Nanxing woke up and sat on the bed. The wind was howling outside, and there were signs of a storm from now on.
"Lily, Lily, can you hear me?"
"Yes, Sister Ku'er, what's wrong?" Nanxing picked up the intercom, her voice still nasal from just waking up, as if she was acting coquettishly.
"Lily, listen to me, don't get out of the car. The wind outside is too strong. Let's just leave and take shelter."
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Sister Kou'er."
Nanxing turned off the intercom, yawned, put away the things that needed to be put away in the car in her pajamas, made herself a cup of instant coffee with berry toast, and then went to the driver's seat.
The wind outside was very strong, at least level 10, but Nanxing was not sure about the exact strength.
After waiting for about half an hour, the voice on the walkie-talkie sounded again. Yang Leir began to direct all the vehicles in the convoy. The heavier vehicles needed to be driven on the outside to protect the lighter vehicles inside.
Although Nanxing's car is also a heavy truck, it is only about 20 tons, which is nothing compared to other heavy trucks, so it was placed in the inner position.
The wind was howling outside the window, and the woods on both sides were shaking violently with the strong wind. Nanxing could see that some tree branches had been blown off.
Since there is wind, the rain shouldn't be far away.
The clouds ahead have begun to gather, forming a large dark mass.
I don't know if this island has any underground air-raid shelters or something like that.
Nanxing followed the convoy, driving from morning to night, with only a brief stop of ten minutes in between to take care of personal hygiene.
The instant coffee she made worked and she drank the entire pot.
Driving long distances is very energy-consuming and can easily make people irritable.
It was not until evening that the convoy finally found a sheltered hillside to rest temporarily.
At this time, the wind was about level 12. Nanxing saw many trees broken by the wind on the road. The vehicles in the outer circle even had their windshields hit by broken branches.
Fortunately, all the cars were modified before leaving, and the glass was replaced with level 3 bulletproof glass, so it can withstand the attack.
The sudden wind and rainstorm disrupted the camp's plans, and everyone had to find a suitable shelter to survive the wind and rain.
Make arrangements after the storm is over.
Nanxing was not in a good mood either. She didn't have much gasoline on hand, and when the storm came and there was no sun, the solar panels would not be able to work.
After turning off all unnecessary electricity, Nanxing sat in a chair and ate cold toast.
Tonight we had corn cheese toast and blueberry yogurt toast, neither of which required a stovetop; she just used a torch to spray the toast and it was ready to eat.
Ahhh——there are kids at home, so the update is so late today
