Chapter 246: Boiling Water from the Sky
Shi Jiaojiao quickly returned and took out the intercom: "What happened over there?"
Wang Jia's voice was a little hurried: "You two must not come out, there is boiling water outside!"
Hearing this, Shi Jiaojiao's eyes widened, her mouth remained open for a long time, and her entire scalp felt numb.
boiling water?
Has this world gone completely crazy?
It’s outrageous that the elder brother shouted to open the door. It’s outrageous!
After being shocked, she took out the burn ointment from the space and quickly found a way to send it over.
The weather is so hot now. If the wound is not treated properly and gets infected, you will die.
Fortunately, although boiling water fell from the sky, the temperature outside had dropped to over 60 degrees after being washed by the rain.
As long as you wear thermal insulation clothing and hold an umbrella, there will be no problem going and coming back quickly.
Of course, umbrellas cannot be made of nylon cloth, as this material will deform when exposed to high temperatures and cannot withstand the boiling water outside.
Shi Jiaojiao searched the space for a long time and finally found an umbrella made of high-density impact nanofabric.
When she first bought this umbrella, she thought it was a bit expensive, but now she just wants to say one thing.
It smells really good.
When the two men arrived at the other side of the cave fully armed, the horror on Tang Wei's face had not yet disappeared.
At this moment, he couldn't even feel the pain in his body, and his head was full of buzzing.
When he saw Shi Jiaojiao and Mu Ci, it was like seeing long-lost relatives. Tears welled up in his eyes and he was almost about to scream.
Shi Jiaojiao took a look at Tang Wei's injuries and found that he was indeed seriously injured.
Seven or eight hideous blisters rose up on his chest and back, looking like they would burst at any time. The surrounding skin was also red and swollen, and it was so painful just to look at it.
It was only because Tang Wei reacted quickly and the cave was close, otherwise he would have been skinned alive today.
After Wang Jia took the ointment, he stuffed the thank-you gift he had prepared in advance into Shi Jiaojiao's hand.
Medicines are already precious in the end times, so even if she exchanges them for supplies, she is getting a bargain.
Shi Jiaojiao did not refuse. After accepting it, she glanced at the cave again and saw that there was still a lot of water left. Plus, the rain could bring back blood, so she felt relieved.
But she still reminded: "Don't forget to put water purification tablets in the rainwater when you collect it. There is a small bottle of it in each earthquake bag. Don't forget to boil it when you drink it."
Wang Jia nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
"Okay, we'll go back now. We also need to get some water." Shi Jiaojiao said as she opened the umbrella.
Wang Jia was still a little frightened and warned them, "Be careful on your way back, don't let the rain splash on you."
Shi Jiaojiao waved her hand, then left quickly with Mu Ci.
After returning to the cave, the two pushed the various containers out the door.
Shi Jiaojiao stood at the door, looking at the outside world.
If we ignore the temperature that can dry a person out, this moment can really be described as misty and rainy.
Because the temperature is too high, part of the rain moistens the cracked ground after it falls to the ground, and the other part evaporates directly.
After watching for a few seconds, Shi Jiaojiao hurried back to the cave, closed the door tightly, and then sat on the stool.
I can breathe normally with a mask on my face, but the hot and sticky air penetrates every pore, wrapping my whole body tightly, making me feel uncomfortable all over.
Originally, at the moment when the rain fell, the stuffy feeling was relieved a little, but as the rain got heavier and longer, the stuffy feeling gradually worsened, and it was even worse than before.
It's like being in a giant pressure cooker. If you stay outside for any longer, you'll probably be stewed from the inside out.
This boiling rain not only covered S City, but also swept across the entire country, and even the entire hemisphere which was facing polar day.
Although it was stuffy, hot and hard to breathe, it couldn't stop people from feeling happy.
After all, with water, you don’t have to worry about dying of thirst all the time.
An hour and a half later, the rain finally stopped and the air gradually returned to normal.
Shi Jiaojiao didn't know yet, but because of her anonymous donation of compression bags, the country actually saved a lot of water this time.
It has been more than two years since the end of the world, but all kinds of cutting-edge talents have been protected.
With the raw materials and the production method, it took less than two days to successfully produce the first imitation product.
The result was exactly as the customer service said at the time. Due to the different raw materials, the imitation version only has a water storage capacity of 500 liters. But even so, everyone was very satisfied.
The key is that it is small in size, and the stored water not only deteriorates slowly but also does not evaporate. It is simply a survival artifact for walking in the doomsday.
The production speed slowed down later because all the raw materials near the capital had been plundered.
The country simply distributed the developed compression bags to various provinces and cities while recycling the raw materials.
It is true that most people cannot go out during the polar day, but never underestimate the country.
Some things cannot be mass-produced simply because of the difficulty of production and the scarcity of materials.
There is absolutely no problem in using it to allocate some resources now.
So, dad is still dad.
The officials of City S have also been in high spirits recently. First, they received a dozen compression bags donated by the socialist successors. Not long after, the capital sent another 100. In addition, they also prepared a lot of water storage containers. This time, they almost got too full due to the rainfall.
We cannot say now that we can let all the survivors in the city drink as much as they want, but if everyone saves a little more, there is still hope that everyone can survive the polar day in one piece.
Of course, the premise is that polar day only lasts for half a year.
The water pressure on Qin Jun's side was reduced, and everyone felt a lot more relaxed. He even called Shi Jiaojiao and asked them if they wanted to move to the city, since it had just stopped raining and the temperature had not risen yet.
After hearing this, Shi Jiaojiao refused at first.
They have their own villa, so who would want to squeeze into a large dormitory bed? And so far, everything is fine on the mountain, and it is not time to go down the mountain and look for a way out.
But hearing the other party's tone, Shi Jiaojiao's eyes lit up, so she asked tentatively.
Qin Jun had no intention of hiding anything and told the whole story about the compression bag just like pouring the beans.
Since the capital can send so many, it proves that this thing can be mass-produced. Maybe in the future everyone can have one?
Moreover, once this kind of news is released, it will only make all the survivors more determined to survive the end of the world.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Jiaojiao had an idea and took out the compression bag that she had prepared long ago.
Now while the temperature is not high, it is a good opportunity to send it to Wang Jia.
But she was afraid of revealing any flaws, as the things were delivered by Mu Ci.
Mu Ci didn't even give Wang Jia and the others a chance to speak. He stuffed the things in his pocket and turned away.
Wang Jia was confused and could only ask on the intercom: "Jiaojiao, what did your brother send over?"
Shi Jiaojiao cleared her throat and explained, "When the rain stopped just now, my brother's friend found a way to come over. This is a compressed water storage bag that the country has newly developed. It took a lot of effort to get two of them."
Then she explained the usage in detail.
Wang Jia didn't respond for a long time. After a while, she opened her mouth and said, "Am I living in ancient times? Our country is so awesome!"
