Chapter 69 -15 degrees Celsius
The next day, when Shi Jiaojiao woke up, she found herself lying in bed.
She yawned, and it must have been her brother who carried her in.
The temperature in the room is now much higher than before. Although it is not as warm as spring, at least my face won’t be frozen, and the bed is even warmer.
Shi Jiaojiao rarely stayed in bed. She glanced at her phone and saw that it was already past three in the morning.
From today on, I no longer have to reverse day and night.
As she reached out to pull the covers over her head, she heard a knock on the bedroom door.
"Jiaojiao, get up and eat. You won't be able to sleep tonight if you sleep any longer." Mu Ci spoke outside the door.
Shi Jiaojiao responded, then yawned and brushed her teeth and washed her face.
As soon as I opened the bedroom door, I saw Xiao Hei lying next to the sofa in the living room.
Mu Ci was probably afraid that it would be cold, so he placed a small sun next to it.
Shi Jiaojiao walked over and touched its head.
She tried it with Xiao Hei last time.
If she and Mu Ci enter the Golden House, the daily time limit will count down.
But Xiao Hei may be an animal and is not restricted by this time.
However, there were a lot of supplies in the living room of the Golden House, and Xiao Hei felt crowded. Plus, she and Mu Ci were limited in time and couldn't accompany it all the time, so Xiao Hei didn't want to stay there for long.
Breakfast is tomato and egg noodles, simple but a mouthful of soup can warm your heart.
Shi Jiaojiao made two more cups of hot cocoa.
At this time, you need to replenish more calories so that you won’t feel cold.
Xiao Hei ate freeze-dried and canned food today, accompanied by hot goat milk, and he ate the whole bowl of it.
After dinner, Shi Jiaojiao took out a thermometer to measure the temperature.
Now, in order to keep warm, the curtains are drawn day and night.
Shi Jiaojiao lifted a corner, then opened the window a crack and put the thermometer out.
To prevent the thermometer from being blown away, she tied a string on it.
The speaker that had been singing all night had run out of battery, so it was quickly brought in.
This is a magical weapon. It can remain strong for such a long time in low temperatures. Maybe it will be useful in the future.
Bring it in five minutes.
It's still minus fifteen degrees.
Shi Jiaojiao sighed.
As much as everyone wanted the sun to disappear yesterday, they want it to appear today.
The sun, which had been scorching the earth for more than half a year, seemed to have completed its mission and hid behind the clouds, never to show up again.
Fortunately, although the temperature is very cold, we can bear it.
After all, every household has some warm clothes.
Wrap yourself in all the clothes you have and burn some wood furniture at home for warmth, and you can still survive.
Many of them were wrapped in thick clothes at home, looking grateful.
During the extremely hot season, they wanted to exchange these things for some supplies.
But with the sun hanging so bright in the sky, who would be willing to change it?
Unexpectedly, these things they didn't care about have now become life-saving supplies.
Shi Jiaojiao closed the curtains and sighed.
Temperature is no longer the biggest problem now.
Because those who died last night basically died of hypothermia due to the sudden drop in temperature.
As long as we can get through last night's drop in temperature, there won't be any problems for the time being.
What worries Shi Jiaojiao is the coming acid rain.
In my previous life, after the extreme heat, the temperature slowly dropped, and when the temperature was around ten degrees, acid rain began to fall.
What about this time?
Even though he had been through so much, his heart still trembled when he thought about the disaster that was about to happen.
Suddenly, a hot water bottle was stuffed into my hand, and then my head was rubbed.
"How about thinking about what to eat in the evening? Do you want to drink lotus root and pork ribs soup?" Mu Ci asked.
Shi Jiaojiao knew that he was trying to divert her attention, so she cooperated and said, "Yes, I remember I stocked up on some pink lotus roots specifically for making soup."
Mu Ci hummed, "Take out the ribs now. I'll make the soup first, and then add the lotus root when it's almost done."
Shi Jiaojiao responded, took out the ingredients, and then lay down on the sofa.
Just then, I received a reminder of my gratitude value.
【Gratitude value＋386】
Shi Jiaojiao laughed, thinking that the loudspeaker she had used yesterday was not in vain.
She also knew why there were only so many.
No matter how loud the speaker is, it is just a small speaker.
How is it possible to imagine that its sound can be heard by everyone in the community?
The remaining people may have sensed something was wrong, or may have been woken up by the noise in the neighborhood. They didn’t know about the loudspeaker, so they had no gratitude points.
Shi Jiaojiao put some coal into the wood stove, then sat next to it, took out her tablet, and flipped through the pages for a long time until she saw a movie about how humans protect themselves when hurricanes, hail, and extreme cold strikes.
Tsk, doesn't this match the current day?
Shi Jiaojiao opened the video.
Although I have experienced it once, I can still find inspiration from the movie.
There is a plate of nuts next to it, so you can peel the shells while watching, which makes it more convenient to eat later.
At noon, the sun still hadn't appeared.
Occasionally, there were cries coming from the community, but they were no longer shrill or hoarse.
It seems like everyone is used to separation and death.
Tang Wei and Wang Jia also greeted each other using the intercom, and felt relieved after confirming that everyone was still alive and well.
Wang Jia huddled in the quilt holding a hot water bottle. Next to her was the stove that Tang Wei had just ignited with his help last night.
It was so cold that the chill seemed to penetrate through the clothes and into the bones.
Who would have thought that it was so hot yesterday that I wanted to not wear any clothes, but today it is so cold that my teeth are chattering even when I put on winter clothes and wrap myself in a quilt.
She held the walkie-talkie and chatted with Shi Jiaojiao.
"I thought we had to survive in the 70-degree heat, but I didn't expect the temperature to drop so much in just a few days. God is trying to kill us!"
However, after complaining, life must go on.
Afraid of feeling sleepy in the afternoon, Shi Jiaojiao took a short nap at noon.
The time is not long, just an hour. If you sleep too long, you may not be able to sleep at night.
After waking up, I was bored and the weather was cold, so I just crawled under the covers and watched a movie.
After flipping through a bunch of movies, I finally found my childhood shadow - the old corpse in the mountain village.
"I remember you watched this movie when you were a child. Why are you watching it again?" Mu Ci asked with a raised eyebrow.
Shi Jiaojiao sighed softly, "I was a kid then, I definitely won't be scared now."
She had killed a lot of people and experienced the end of the world. How could she be scared by such a fake horror movie?
Shi Jiaojiao swore solemnly, holding the popcorn that Mu Ci made for her in her arms.
Facts have proved that you shouldn’t set goals casually, otherwise you will be slapped in the face.
Shi Jiaojiao drank a cup of hot milk tea, but it didn't dispel the coldness in her heart.
Why are ghost movies from more than 20 years ago so scary!
Whenever she closed her eyes, all she could think of was the weird music, the flowing long hair, and Chu Renmei's blue dress.
Even when I go to bed at night, I dare not close the bedroom door.
The reason is that the room is too cold.
When I couldn’t sleep, I would call out to Mu Ci from time to time and chat to pass the time.
It was definitely not because she was afraid.
When it was time to go to bed, Shi Jiaojiao couldn't fall asleep.
As soon as I closed my eyes, I felt like there was a ghost lying next to me.
She wanted to lift the quilt but was afraid of suddenly looking into the eyes of a ghost. However, she stayed under the quilt and felt that at any time a hand would come out from under the bed and grab her feet.
The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, and my heart started pounding.
If my throat wasn't so thin, my heart would jump out of my mouth.
That night, at Shi Jiaojiao's request, Mu Ci moved a small bed into the bedroom to sleep.
Of course, the reason was that Shi Jiaojiao was afraid that he would have a nightmare.
The next day, Shi Jiaojiao had two big dark circles under her eyes.
Seeing her brother looking refreshed.
She was jealous.
Just as she poked the tenth hole in the egg, the intercom rang.
