Chapter 110

Because Zhou Ying's family of three lived downstairs, it was Liu Xiaofeng who opened the door.

Liu Xiaofeng was wearing a short-sleeved shirt when he opened the door. He was so cold that his teeth were chattering and he could hardly speak clearly.

My body was shaking as if it had been electrocuted.

As soon as he opened the door, Gu Kai threw a quilt at him.

Liu Xiaofeng took it and put it on without saying a word.

At this time, Zhou Ying also came out of the room.

She was wearing thicker clothes than Liu Xiaofeng, but she only had one more thin windbreaker, which was the one Chen Xi had given her when she first left the community.

I guess this is because I have wrapped myself in my thickest clothes.

Seeing Chen Cong and his wife, Zhou Ying took two quick steps and took the other quilt.

"Why is it so cold? It's freezing!" Zhou Ying shivered as she spoke.

Then she saw the down jackets the two were wearing and immediately laughed: "Why are you two wearing such thick clothes? It's only what month now, and you're wearing down jackets?"

"Wrap yourself up quickly, or you'll catch a cold." Chen Cong pointed at the quilt.

Then I said to her, "After you get up, go home and bring back some clothes.

Xiaofeng should look similar to Gu Kai's clothes, and you can wear mine or my sister's.

Just make do with what you have and deal with these days first."

"How can that be? How can I wear your clothes?" Zhou Ying was anxious.

Chen Cong rolled his eyes: "Then don't wear it, just freeze like this."

Zhou Ying was speechless immediately.

Liu Xiaofeng next to him burst out laughing.

"I'm so impatient to hear your polite words. I don't know where you learned this from. You're still so polite even though we've known each other for so long."

Zhou Ying didn't get angry when she heard Chen Cong complaining, but smiled.

The two men let them talk and went about their own business.

Liu Xiaofeng returned to the room with the quilt and covered Xiaoyu with it as quickly as possible.

Gu Kai went straight up to the second floor and gave the quilt to Shi Chen.

When he came down again, he came down with Shi Chen, and he also brought Can Can down with him.

Children sleep a lot, so even though he felt cold, when Gu Kai went to knock on the door, Shi Chen didn't wake up at all.

He knocked for a long time before he finally got the boy to wake up.

Similarly, when the two went to Cancan's room, the little girl had curled up into a ball and shivered from the cold, but she was still asleep. It was not until her brother picked her up from the bed that she finally opened her eyes.

Chen Cong took Cancan, who was wrapped in several towels, and told Zhou Ying and Shi Chen again, asking them to go home to get clothes at dawn, and then took the little girl home.

At this time, all the adults in the family got up and wrapped themselves in cotton clothes.

No one had yet adapted to the sudden severe cold; everyone was bleary-eyed and either standing or sitting in the living room with a dazed look on their faces.

Chen Cong directly stuffed Cancan into Shanshan's bed and let the two little girls continue to sleep together.

Tongtong tried hard to open his eyes and looked at her.

"Go to bed. It's still early. Go to bed quickly." Chen Cong said softly.

Tongtong hummed, turned over and fell asleep again immediately.

"It's 0 degrees!"

As soon as Shen Cong came out of the room, he heard his sister's exclamation.

Then she saw Shen Xi holding a thermometer in his hand, pointing at the number on it with a look of shock on his face.

The temperature dropped too fast!

Chen Cong had never experienced extremely cold weather in his previous life.

She was bitten to death by insects not long after the flood.

The floods back then were more serious than they are now.

It’s not about how heavy the rain was or how deep the water was.

In fact, it rained for only twenty days in my previous life, and the accumulated water only submerged one floor.

From the perspective of floods alone, it is not as serious as in this life.

But in the previous life, people’s physical constitutions were weak due to insufficient food supply.

Then there were very few laborers, and the post-disaster reconstruction work did not develop as rapidly as it has in this lifetime.

At least, not so many temporary relief points have been built.

Although the rain was not so heavy and the water was not so deep in the previous life, many people died.

An epidemic broke out after the disaster.

The most important thing is that because the garbage has not been cleaned up, the whole place is filled with a foul smell, which results in the breeding of poisonous insects.

Those poisonous insects were different from the ones before the heavy rain. The previous ones were less toxic. Although their mouthparts were also poisonous, as long as the area bitten was not too large, at least there would be no danger to life.

But what Chen Cong encountered at that time were the kind of poisonous insects that multiplied after rain.

Once bitten by the insect, the body will immediately begin to fester and yellow pus will ooze out.

Wherever the pus flows, the place will continue to fester... until death.

Before Chen Cong died, the weather had indeed turned colder, but it definitely had not changed as fast as it is now.

She remembered that autumn came overnight.

It's still hot wearing short sleeves during the day, but you'll need a thick coat after a night.

But there is no such thing as the temperature dropping directly from over 30 degrees to zero degrees.

Chen Cong had never experienced such a change before, so for a moment she didn't know how to deal with it.

"How much ginger is left at home? How many peppers are left?" asked Mr. Gu.

His expression was very solemn, and he went into the kitchen while speaking.

Cheng Ru and Shen Xi immediately followed in to check, while Shen Cong and Gu Kai took out a large heating stove from the space and began to install it.

They originally bought a total of fourteen heating stoves, four large and ten small.

The ten small ones cannot be connected to radiators, but they are easy to move. They save energy and are quick to ignite when used for cooking.

So whether in the community or in Fulin, we always use a small heating stove for cooking at home.

But the temperature is already so low now, it is not appropriate to use the small one. Naturally, the big one has to be installed and the radiator has to be connected.

While the two of them were cleaning the heater, Mr. Gu had already found all the ginger in the house.

Because I had just harvested a batch before, there is still more than half a pot left, which weighs about five or six kilograms.

But the old man still thinks it is not enough.

"Xixi, go get all the peppers from your home.

Gu Kai, stop doing that, come here and help grow some ginger, quickly!"

The old man's tone was very anxious, and he made everyone in the family nervous.

Father Shen quickly walked up to Gu Kai and said, “You go quickly, I’ll come this way.”

After that, he poked his daughter again: "You go too!"

There was no time to go upstairs now, and the ground on the roof must be frozen hard by now.

Chen Cong simply took out the soil from the backyard from the space and put it directly into the pot that his mother found.

Gu Kai temporarily grew a pot of ginger in the living room.

"These are enough for now. You can add some more peppers later." The old man obviously didn't think it was enough.

But he didn't dare delay any longer.

"Follow me, everyone. I'll deliver ginger to every house! As long as you're sure there's someone living there, break down the door!"

After the old man finished speaking, he walked ahead.

Only after he left did everyone realize the seriousness of the matter.

Many people in this building have fled here from outside, so it’s hard to say whether they have winter clothes at home.

If they were originally residents, it would be fine. But if they were outsiders, in this kind of weather...

It can freeze people to death before dawn.

No one was able to ask any more questions. They all wrapped themselves in their thickest clothes, each received a bag of ginger and dried chilies, and then began to bang on the doors one by one from top to bottom!

In fact, most of the residents have been awakened by the cold at this time.

Many people are still confused and don’t know what’s going on with the weather.

Because they had exchanged vegetables upstairs before, everyone in the building knew the Shen family, so after Shen Cong and his friends introduced themselves, basically everyone opened the door as soon as they knocked.

The people who opened the door were wearing all kinds of clothes, and they all wanted to wrap themselves in everything they could.

But even so, they were still shivering from the cold.

"Do you have any ginger or chili peppers at home?" After knocking on the door, everyone in the Shen family asked the same question.

If the other party answers "yes", they will tell him to make ginger tea immediately. If there is no time to make it, just cut a few slices of ginger and chew them first.

If the other party answers "no", they will stuff the ginger and chili peppers into their neighbor's hands.

When they first saw them, almost every neighbor was confused and couldn't understand the situation at all.

It was not until Chen Cong and his team showed them the thermometer and repeatedly emphasized the need to keep warm that everyone realized that extremely cold weather might be coming soon.

This is when we entered a tense state.

Because they made so much noise, before they reached the 15th floor, the neighbors from the floors below had already run up.

After hearing what they said, some of the stronger people who were wearing thick clothes took the ginger and chili peppers from them and spontaneously distributed them to the floors below...

Fortunately, the old man reacted quickly enough.

Although when the warning was issued, there were several households where people had to knock on their doors for a long time before someone opened them, and it was obvious that the people inside were freezing cold and would be in danger if they woke up any later.

But generally speaking, the neighbors upstairs and downstairs at least did not fall asleep on this sudden cold night.

Because some of the neighbors in the building had stocks, the ginger and chili peppers were not distributed in full.

Gu Kai and Xie Benliang from the 13th floor called a few neighbors who were in good health and took the remaining supplies to other buildings.

Chen Cong and his friends returned home.

It was only three o'clock in the evening.

But after running around like this, no one in the family wanted to sleep anymore.

Father Shen had just stayed at home to light the stove and had not come downstairs. The stove was already lit, and although the radiator was not yet heated up, it was at least a little warm.

Seeing them coming back, Father Shen brought down the boiling hot and sour soup on the stove and gave each of them a bowl.

It stands to reason that it would be best to drink a bowl of ginger soup at this time, but Father Shen is naturally not fond of ginger, so when cooking at home, the ginger must be cut into large pieces.

You have to be able to pick it out, and never eat it accidentally.

When making dumplings and chopping stuffing, you can only use ginger powder at home, and absolutely not minced ginger.

So, he stayed at home to make soup, but it was impossible for him to drink ginger soup.

When she picked up the big black bowl, Shen Cong first smelled a strong smell of vinegar. She subconsciously tilted her head back and asked, "Dad, what did you put in this?"

"What can I put in it? Vinegar, soy sauce, pepper, eggs, sesame oil. I cracked three eggs! Drink them all up, finish them!"

Father Shen said, and filled another large bowl and handed it to his in-laws.

Then he stood in front of the dining table, with an attitude of "I'm staring at you, let's see who dares to leave a bite for me."

Chen Cong had no choice but to close his eyes and take a big gulp.

Then I smacked my lips and thought... not bad!

At the same time, the old man also hummed and praised: "Jianyi's soup is well made, not worse than my brother and sister-in-law's!"

"That's right. I just don't like to do it normally. If I really do it, there will be nothing for her mother to do." Father Shen said with a smug look on his face.

"Okay, then you cook for me from now on. I'd rather not have to do anything." Cheng Ru sneered.

Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, and then drank the bowl of hot and sour egg soup clean.

After Gu Kai came back, Chen Cong was afraid that he was not full, so he took out another fried cake from the space and asked him to soak it in the soup and eat it together.

Gu Kai finished the big bowl of soup and a fried cake in just a few bites, sweating all over his forehead.

As the radiator heated up, the temperature in the room finally slowly rose.

When the room temperature reached 15 degrees, everyone felt much more comfortable. At least there was no more painful feeling in the calves and feet caused by freezing.

"Everyone, go to sleep for a while. We can talk about it tomorrow. It's still early now!" Father and Mother Shen put the dishes in the kitchen together and said to everyone.

"I'll wash the dishes." Gu Kai was the last one to finish eating, and he followed in consciously.

"We don't need you. Go to bed quickly! You will definitely be the busiest person in our family tomorrow. Go to bed quickly!" Cheng Ru resolutely drove him out.

Gu Kai looked at Chen Cong and wanted to say something.

Shen Cong waved his hand directly at him: "Don't worry about me, go to bed quickly, you are now the key protected person in our family, go and rest."

Gu Kai was amused by her words, but he still asked, "What about you?"

"I'll find some clothes. Not only for our family, but also for Shi Chen and the others, otherwise they won't be able to leave the house tomorrow."

"Not only Shichen, but also Jiashu and Wei Yan! They don't have thick clothes either." Cheng Ru added loudly in the kitchen.

Chen Cong paused, immediately realizing the seriousness of the matter.

Of course!

Jiashu survived the earthquake, and Wei Yan rushed to Qingzhou from the capital in the middle of summer. They definitely had no winter clothes.

It's so cold today, you'll be frozen to death!

Wei Yan is fine, there is nothing we can do about it.

As a soldier, you should be where your post is.

But what about the family tree?

When Chen Cong thought about Jiashu insisting on going back to the community, he was so angry that his teeth were itching.

"Let him freeze to death instead of running around!" She was so angry that she complained out loud.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Cheng Ru had just finished washing the dishes and came out.

She wiped her hands and said, "Don't talk nonsense, pack up your things and come out at dawn. Let your dad go there. If you really get sick from the cold, won't that be a problem? Won't we be worried about you then?"

"What are you taking? Just go and capture him! I'll go with my dad tomorrow. If he doesn't come back, I'll lock him up with an iron chain!" Chen Cong became angrier the more he thought about it.

He had to go before because there was a flood and he had to protect public property. I won’t say anything about that.

Now that the water has receded, why are you still staying there?

If the brat had come back early, wouldn’t there be so many problems?

Hearing her say this, not to mention Father and Mother Shen, even Old Man Gu laughed.

No one said that Chen Cong was wrong, and everyone tacitly agreed with her idea.

Tie that troublesome guy back with a chain!

Gu Kai got up at six o'clock in the morning.

Without waiting for Shi Chen and the others to arrive, he sent them the clothes that his family had prepared in advance.

On his way out, he looked out the window, but saw nothing.

Because there was heating in the house, a thick layer of frost formed on the window, covering the entire glass tightly.

The moment he opened the door, he shuddered with cold and leaned back subconsciously, almost shrinking back.

It's too cold!

Although there was no thermometer, Gu Kai felt that the temperature in the stairwell had definitely dropped below zero.

Gu Kai had just walked out of the door and hadn't even reached the other side when the door there opened.

Seeing him, Shi Chen and Liu Xiaofeng, wrapped in quilts, ran out together and took the clothes from him.

The two of them didn't even have time to say anything to Gu Kai. They just grabbed the clothes and wrapped them around themselves.

"It's too cold! Brother, do you know what the temperature is now? It's minus five degrees! It was over thirty degrees yesterday, and now it's dropped by forty degrees. This is killing me!"

After putting on his clothes, Liu Xiaofeng finally recovered.

He didn't know what time he got up in the morning. He probably had a lot to say but didn't know who to talk to.

Now that he was a little warmer, he began to babble non-stop.

As he spoke, puffs of white air came out of his mouth.

"We have extra stoves at home. We brought them back from the community. You and Shi Chen will go over and move two of them, one upstairs and one downstairs. We can't survive this kind of weather without heating equipment."

Gu Kai didn't say much to him. He put down his clothes and went back.

When he got home, Shen Cong and Shen's father had also gotten up.

Although I went to bed late last night, I had something on my mind and no one could sleep in.

What's more, they had agreed to go back to the community today to bring Jiashu back.

Because the old man specifically told Gu Kai yesterday to stay home today to continue growing ginger and peppers, so he couldn't go back to the community with him.

As the weather gets colder, preparing winter clothes for everyone is something that cannot be accomplished by one person alone.

But it is still possible to give everyone some ginger and chili peppers to provide them with some calories as much as possible.

What's more, the old man has to cook cold-relieving soup at home and distribute it to the neighbors today, which is also a physical job and he needs someone's help.

Because everyone slept late yesterday, no one got up to cook in the morning.

Chen Cong took out a pot of ginger, angelica and mutton soup that Cheng Ru had stewed earlier from the space and served a large bowl to each person.

In addition to ginger and angelica, Cheng Ru also added red dates and yam to the soup, which can dispel cold and provide nourishment.

After drinking a big bowl of it, I felt warm from the inside out.

After drinking the soup and eating the accompanying pancakes, Shen Cong and Shen's father did not delay at home for long. They each wrapped themselves in a duck down jacket and set off.

Although they felt the cold as soon as they left the house, it was not until they went downstairs that they experienced what bone-chilling cold was.

Even though they were prepared and both of them wore scarves and hats, as soon as they walked out of the building and were blown by the cold wind, they suddenly felt their faces go numb.

I stumble a little when I speak.

"Hurry up and leave. The car won't start if it's any later." Father Shen immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, pulled his daughter, and the two of them walked quickly out of the community.

Although it hadn't snowed yet, they could feel the soil beneath their feet was frozen through their thick winter boots.

The biting cold ran up along the soles of my shoes.

You have to know that because the flood has not receded for a long time, the soil has a high water content and has been soft.

If you step on it hard or walk on it too many times, the ground will easily turn into mud.

Now it’s frozen solid.

Fortunately, due to the sudden change in weather, there were not many people outside at this time.

After finding a secluded place, Chen Cong took out the car from the space.

The car had been parked in the space before, so it didn't need to be preheated at this moment. The two got in the car as quickly as possible and rushed to the community.

They did meet a few cars on the road, but probably because they were wary of the weather, those cars were not driving fast.

There were also several cars that simply stalled on the road.

Chen Cong didn't dare to slow down along the way, for fear that if he wasn't paying attention, the car would also stall, which would be a big trouble.

Fortunately, they were lucky, and perhaps because the car was not parked outside and was not exposed to the cold, they finally managed to return to the community safely.

It was almost three months since the rain started and they hadn't been back, so much so that the gate guard almost didn't recognize them when he saw them.

Chen Cong rolled down the car window and shouted at the guard: "Xiao Qian, don't you recognize me?"

Xiao Qian was startled when he heard her voice!

He quickly ran over and looked into the car, then said, "Sister Shen, Uncle Shen, why are you back at this time? It's so cold, are you frozen?"

"It's not as cold as you are, you are the ones who are having a hard time."

Chen Cong looked at the military coat he was wearing, and the obviously thin jacket underneath, and said with emotion.

"It's okay, it's okay. We'll change shifts in a minute. We can't stay outside in this bad weather." Xiao Qian said, pulling open the railing as quickly as possible.

"Sister, please go in quickly, or the car won't be able to move later."

Shen Cong waved at him, said nothing more, and drove directly into the community.

At this time, a thick layer of ice had condensed on the outside of the car, and everything looked a little blurry.

Plus it was too cold outside, so Chen Cong naturally closed the window as soon as he finished speaking.

So much so that she didn't even hear what Xiao Qian yelled at her from behind.

She drove the car directly to her doorstep and got out of the car with Shen's father.

Before getting off the car, the two people immediately felt that the temperature must have dropped again.

I estimate that the temperature must be below minus ten degrees Celsius at this time.

This is how it feels when Bac Ninh is at its coldest.

And there won’t be such strong winds.

As soon as I stepped out of the car, I felt like I was going to be blown away.

The father and daughter supported each other and walked towards their home, only to find out that what Liu Tuan had told them before, that their home was not damaged at all, was a lie.

I don’t know whether it was Wei Yan or Liu Tuan who deliberately said such words to comfort them.

The author has something to say:

The list has changed, so let's push the pre-collection again. This book will be released directly after it is finished, so you won't have to wait any longer.

Next book: "Reborn to the Day When the Natural Disaster Strikes", friends who haven't collected it yet, please give Yusu a collection, refill~

"Mom, wake up, we have to find my dad quickly."

This was the first sentence Ke Bei heard when she opened her eyes.

Then I felt my legs lighten as the heavy stone on them was lifted up and thrown aside by the boy in front of me who was less than six years old.

The severe pain came and she suddenly woke up, realizing that she was reborn, back to the moment before the natural disaster.

Returning with her was her son Cheng Tian, ​​who was born after the end of the world.

"Can you get up? Hurry up, the bridge is going to collapse!"

Without waiting for her to respond, her son grabbed her up, threw her on his shoulders and ran away.

Lying on the baby's back, Ke Bei closed her eyes silently, and understood——

The cub's superpowers returned with him.

--

After Cheng Gan retired from the army, he opened a car repair shop and had good business. In addition, one person's food fed the whole family, so he lived a happy life.

Until one day a bridge in the city collapsed, and a woman with a child found him and said to him -

"I am your wife and he is your son. Come with us now. We will die together as a family!"

Cheng Gan: “…”

I've never been in a relationship, so where do my wife and son come from?!

Copywriter 2: "Save the villain cubs in the infinite disaster"

Ten years after the end of the world, the couple Shao Qi and Le Xuan died surrounded by wolves.

When they woke up again, they found that they were bound together to a system called "Rescue Villain Cubs in Another World".

The system requires them to travel through various alien worlds, save those cubs who have either turned evil or died due to natural disasters, suffering, human frame-up, etc., and become their parents.

If the mission fails, they will return to the moment before their death when they were surrounded by wolves and experience the pain of being bitten by wolves again;

When the mission is finally completed, they will be able to choose a world they like to stay in and fulfill Shao Qi's last wish before his death.

Le Xuan turned around and asked: "What wish did you make before you died?"

Shao Qi: “…I forgot.”

In order to fulfill this forgotten wish, the two began to travel through various small worlds, saving cubs and trying their best to be good parents.

Apocalypse 1: In a world of biological alienation, rescue the genius boy who was forgotten in the laboratory by a scientific research boss;

Apocalypse II: Plants mutate, poison grows everywhere, and the search for the blind daughter begins;

Apocalypse III: natural disasters, extreme cold, and surviving with twin daughters;

End of the world 4: spiritual energy, supernatural powers, relying on the genius son to lie down;

…

Several years later, Shao Qi and Le Xuan felt relieved when they saw that the sixth child they raised had secured the position of the leader of the base at a young age.

The two of them waved their sleeves, left quietly without a trace of cloud, and returned to the original world.

Standing at the door of their former home, the two smiled at each other.

I didn't expect that the moment I pushed the door open, I would be met with six pairs of resentful eyes at the same time.

"Dad! Mom!"

Looking at the noisy kids in the room, Le Xuan rubbed his brows and tilted his head: "Isn't your wish to go home and live well together?"

Shao Qi: “…”

There is another sentence at the end - and our children.
