The soup cooked by Yu Xifeng himself tastes not bad.
But after eating too much of Zhang Qiu's cooking, Yu Xifeng's taste became increasingly picky, and even the slightest flaw always made her feel uncomfortable.
Yu Xifeng still kept the two pots of food he cooked in his space.
She can never have too much cooked food in the space.
Yu Xifeng and Zhang Qiu lived on the food stored in the lava cave.
The reservoir was being drained at a very slow rate.
Sometimes Zhang Qiu even wondered if groundwater had seeped in, allowing the reservoir to remain strong until now.
Zhang Qiu also tasted some raw water from the reservoir.
"Does the water taste sweet? It has been stored for so long and there is no sediment. The quality of the water is really good."
Yu Xifeng’s smile is unfathomable.
"What a pity. The high temperature has lasted for so long that there probably isn't much water left in Jiangshan." Zhang Qiu said.
Zhang Qiu looked up. Even though he was underground, he seemed to still be able to feel the sun hanging high above him.
In the past, the sun brought light and hope, but now it brings desolation and death.
Although Yu Xifeng and Zhang Qiu do not go to the surface, they will still go to check the situation at the lava cave entrance regularly when conditions permit.
They also set up animal traps along the way to clear out nearby mice that wanted to steal food.
The trap didn't yield much, but Xiaoju did get a good harvest.
With Xiaoju around, insects and rats in the lava cave have basically become extinct.
Cang Hui also wanted to take this job, but he was out of breath after just a few steps and lay down under the air conditioner unwillingly.
When Xiaoju returned triumphantly to the nest with the prey, Canghui snatched the mouse right under Yu Xifeng's nose and brought it to Yu Xifeng.
Yu Xifeng: “…”
I don't think this kind of behavior should be encouraged.
But when he saw Canghui's blinking eyes, he couldn't say any words of accusation.
Finally, Yu Xifeng patted Canghui's head.
Then he gave a can of food to Xiaoju, who had lost his mouse.
Several times in a row, I went out in the middle of the night, and there was still light coming in from outside the cave.
Zhang Qiu said: "Why do I feel like there is no night now?"
He couldn't be exposed to cold wind directly, and he got a lot of prickly heat on his neck and joints.
Fortunately, Zhang Qiu has no shortage of things like prickly heat powder, essential oil and cooling oil.
I don't know what kind of foresight Old Man Cai had at the time to buy the whole set of these things that are not even considered medicine.
Xiaoju's body was covered with patches of rashes due to hair loss.
The first thing Zhang Qiu did after examining Xiaoju was to disinfect everything that Xiaoju had touched.
Even so, it still couldn't be stopped.
Within two days, it was passed on to Zhang Qiu, and then to Cang Hui.
Zhang Qiu said that this was a fungal infection.
It's not a serious illness, but it's difficult to cure.
By the time Yu Xifeng's joints began to ulcerate and itch, all living things in the cave were basically wiped out.
However, the hen gradually became more energetic under Zhang Qiu's careful care and isolation, and the frequency of laying eggs returned to two a day.
The fungal infection also did not spread to the chickens’ heads.
Yu Xifeng's hand condition had just gotten a little better, but he was cross-infected by Xiaoju or Canghui.
Zhang Qiu had no choice but to tie up Xiaoju and Canghui with ropes and designated a corner.
Zhang Qiu and Yu Xifeng also moved their tents away.
It is divided into four corners, isolated from each other.
Zhang Qiu conducts comprehensive disinfection of the cave where he lives every day.
In addition to applying medicine, adding food, and reducing encounters, direct contact is also eliminated.
Yu Xifeng recovered the fastest. After three or four days, the itching on the surface of his skin stopped. However, Zhang Qiu, Xiaoju and Canghui did not recover.
Yu Xifeng could only continue to stay in the tent.
She flipped through the novel on her phone and felt that none of it was as interesting as Zhang Qiu's ghost stories.
It seems that my body has slowly gotten used to the burning sensation.
The temperature is still the same, even higher than before, but the amount of sweat the body produces is decreasing.
This is most obvious in Zhang Qiu.
At first, he almost died every time he went out for a walk, but now, slowly, he has gotten much better.
Every person and every species is adapting to this difficult world.
Zhang Qiu prepared the medicine every day, distributed it to Yu Xifeng, and then applied it to Xiaoju and Canghui.
Xiaoju is fine, she has an Elizabethan collar.
Canghui is too big, and Yu Xifeng’s largest pet Elizabethan collar can’t even fit around a pig’s neck.
In the final chapter, Qiu made one in the shape of a trumpet using branches and ropes.
On the first day it was put around Canghui's neck, it was pressed against the wall and crushed to pieces.
Zhang Qiu was so angry that he almost beat Cang Hui up.
With Canghui's size, it is difficult to use coercive means without causing harm.
The matter ended with Zhang Qiu's verbal warning.
Fortunately, Canghui was still self-aware and applied ointment to the areas where the moss grew. He would occasionally scratch it but never lick it.
When applying medicine to Cang Hui, Zhang Qiu felt so distressed.
The two people and the cat together used less medicine than Canghui alone.
When Old Man Cai bought the medicine, he took every aspect into consideration for Zhang Qiu, but he did not consider that one day Zhang Qiu would raise a wolf of such a large size.
In order to save money, Zhang Qiu gave Cang Hui a strong medicine, which he boiled internally and took externally.
Canghui is the second best one after Yuxifeng.
Maybe there's something in the medicine that stimulates growth.
Where the gray was covered with moss and where it recovered again, new hair grew.
Most of his original hair had fallen out, and he was completely bald, but at least his hair was neat.
Now there are handfuls here and there.
This was the first time Yu Xifeng had seen something so messy in his two lifetimes.
It's so ugly that it hurts the eyes.
The last one to recover was Zhang Qiu. He had been drinking medicine all the time, and his body was like a parasite. Although he was infected by Xiaoju the fastest, his symptoms were the mildest and lasted the longest.
As a pathogen, Xiaoju really suffered a lot in this battle.
The whole cat had lost a lot of weight, so Yu Xifeng secretly added goat milk powder to its water and fed it egg yolks.
Carrying Zhang Qiu and Cang Hui on his back, he had a good rest for a while.
When the last patch of moss on Xiaoju's body started to grow hair, the Elizabethan collar was finally removed from Xiaoju.
Yu Xifeng and Zhang Qiu also officially confirmed that it was no longer night outside.
This is what Zhang Qiu and Yu Xifeng observed and summarized after going to the entrance of the lava cave several times.
Zhang Qiu joked, "What do you think? Those suns shot down by Hou Yi have resurrected and are taking revenge on the human world."
The sun is high overhead all day, day and night.
There is only strong light, strong heat, and stronger light and heat.
Yu Xifeng said: "Then we have to do some shaman dance and ask the gods to descend, do you know how to do it?"
"It's not impossible to wait until the high temperature is over." Zhang Qiu said, touching his chin.
Yu Xifeng said, "The high temperature is over, why are you still dancing?"
"Apart from offering sacrifices, what else can dancing be used for? The peacock spreads its tail to, of course, seek a mate," Zhang Qiu said with a smile.
