Chapter 490: The double torture of scorching sun and high temperature!

"This..." Li Wenxi was a little confused, "Then why..."

"Hmm..." Li Yajun, who was leaning against the head of the bed and leaning on Li Wenxi, hummed and slowly opened her eyes.

Her complexion has returned to normal, but her condition is still not very good.

Although the pills could cure her illness, they couldn't restore her mental state. Judging from her previous state, she must have not slept well last night, so naturally she was a little depressed.

"Ah...! Wen Xi? And Xu Xin, why are you here?" Li Yajun saw the two of them and immediately sat up from the bed. Then she thought of something and suddenly looked down at herself.

Seeing that she was wearing clothes, she breathed a sigh of relief, then asked with some confusion: "How do I..."

"I dressed you well. There's no way he could have seen it," Li Wenxi casually explained, then immediately asked fiercely, "What's wrong with you, Yajun? When we got here, you had already passed out from heatstroke! If we hadn't come, you probably wouldn't have woken up!"

"Huh?" Li Yajun was startled, then felt the sticky feeling of sweat all over her body, and the room temperature was as high as 45 degrees. "I... I clearly used blue-grade saltpeter, and I used three pieces. How come..."

Is it true?

Seeing that Li Yajun herself was not clear about the situation, Xu Xin confirmed his inner guess.

"Could it be..." Li Wenxi also vaguely guessed it.

"It's probably because the low temperature provided by the three blue-grade saltpeter wasn't enough to maintain it until now," Xu Xin said, holding up the basin of water containing the three dissolved saltpeter. "The temperature did drop while you were asleep, but the saltpeter quickly dissolved completely and stopped absorbing heat. This tree house doesn't have a constant temperature, so the temperature gradually rose, and you suffered a heatstroke in your sleep."

As he spoke, he opened the window and placed a basin of water with dissolved saltpeter on the windowsill in the sunlight.

Under the scorching sunlight, the water in the basin made a sizzling sound and then evaporated rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This speed is even faster than using a high fire on the stove to reduce the sauce...

"Ah, is that so?" Li Yajun said in surprise. "Now that I think about it, I really had a hard time sleeping last night. I was half asleep and half awake the whole time, and it was very hot!"

"You, if we hadn't come over, you would have fallen asleep!" Li Wenxi felt a little scared when he thought about it, and patted her head.

"Ah... I'm sorry..." Li Yajun felt embarrassed and a little guilty.

She originally wanted to come over to look after the house, but she didn't expect it to become a trouble.

"Forget it, I'm glad you're okay."

Xu Xin looked at the evaporating water in the basin and the blue saltpeter powder that was precipitating, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

This is not the extent of her being fine.

If you think about it carefully, this is simply... a disaster!

Li Yajun has blue-grade saltpeter for cooling down, and if she can do this, what about the other survivors?

If other survivors get heatstroke in their sleep like her, will they be able to wake up?

The tree house they were staying in was so comfortable that he almost forgot about the plight of others.

He thought that around 40 degrees Celsius at night was a good temperature.

But now think about it…

Still exaggerated.

You know, there are indeed high temperatures of 44 or 45 degrees on Earth.

But the highest temperature is in the afternoon.

The temperature at night can reach 35 degrees, which is already very high.

So, on Earth, even if there is no air conditioning, in such hot weather, you can get through it with a fan.

But here, not only is there no fan, the temperature is over 40 degrees!

The temperature can even exceed 45 degrees Celsius in the early morning!

this……

This is definitely not a temperature that a normal person can withstand!

For other survivors, this is a disaster that poses an extreme threat to their lives!

If I don’t wake up, I’m afraid I’ll never wake up again!

Xu Xin subconsciously wanted to swipe his watch to see the number of people, but there was no response after swiping several times.

Only then did he realize that his watch was too far away from his tree house and had lost its function.

He wanted to let Li Wenxi see it again, but just as he opened his mouth, he closed it again and shook his head helplessly.

...The regional channel is closed and can no longer be opened.

I can't see the number of people now.

...Damn.

Xu Xin cursed in his heart.

This is so difficult!

He sighed.

There is no way, we can’t help them now, they can only rely on themselves.

I hope not so many people will die in this heatwave.

Now, he can only think about what to do next.

...Is there any way to artificially end this scorching summer, just like during the cold winter?
