Chapter 168 The Extreme Heat Has Passed



The first time she ate the green vegetables, she became addicted. Later, she sent word that she should leave some for him every time she grew them, and instead of taking them for free, she would exchange them with the jade from her home.

Even if they didn't exchange, she would still send some over, since she needed his help right now.

Although that person can't make the decision directly, getting them on your side will make getting the others on your side much easier.

Lin Yue personally delivered the vegetables to that person. His young master's illness had improved, but he was still a bit weak, so she also wanted to send some lotus roots over.

When they arrived at the house with the items, the lady of the house personally came out and took the items inside. She also took two pieces of jewelry.

"Miss Lin, thank you so much for all this time, otherwise Ziqian would have..." The lady didn't finish her sentence.

Lin Yue had only delivered vegetables once before, and this was the second time. She wasn't there the last time, so she was expressing her gratitude today.

"You're too kind, Madam. It's just a matter of mutual benefit, an equal exchange."

The lady laughed upon hearing this.

She liked Lin Yue's clear-headedness.

"Miss Lin, what you want will definitely come true," the lady said with a smile, patting his shoulder.

Upon hearing the lady's words, Lin Yue understood what she wanted to say and simply bowed slightly.

"Thank you, Madam! I'll be going now."

"Alright, it's getting dark, so I won't keep you any longer." She knew Lin Yue's basic situation; there were people waiting for her at home, and she couldn't selfishly keep her there.

As dusk fell, Lin Yue returned home from that house. Cang Yu had just finished measuring the rice, and with a wave of her hand, a table full of food appeared, steaming warm, and the aroma of the food immediately filled the entire living room.

The place she chose was uninhabited next door except for Cang Jue and Cang Jun, so she wasn't worried about the fragrance wafting out and being smelled by others.

The three of them followed the "Clean Plate Policy" and finished all the food on the table.

Cang Yu sighed inwardly again, realizing he was truly not cut out for cooking; no matter how he tried, he could never replicate this flavor.

Another ordinary and peaceful day has passed.

Two months later, the five wolf cubs were completely weaned. Jiang Ci brought a lot of meat with his men, but they still couldn't let the wolf cubs go with them.

Finally, in a stalemate, he used two pistols and several boxes of ammunition to trade with Lin Yue for some meat, which finally managed to coax the five wolf cubs away. He also promised Lin Yue that she could visit them at the military region anytime.

With the five wolf cubs taken away, the house suddenly felt empty. Lin Yue wasn't used to it at first, and Canglang and Xuelang were also depressed for a while. However, they later had their own things to do, and their negative emotions disappeared.

...

In this apocalyptic world with no real danger outside, Lin Yue's goal was clear: she had not left the J City base since arriving there.

Because of the effects of the spiritual spring water, Lin Yue has never failed to cure a single patient, and therefore, there has never been a medical dispute.

As for the fact that people visit his house from time to time, he said he's used to it. Anyway, they can only visit the outside of the wall and can't get inside. The electric fence on there isn't just for decoration.

Time flies, and soon more than two years have slipped through our fingers. Those who struggle continue to struggle, and those who die have not stopped.

Lin Yue was living a relatively comfortable life at the base.

Today it was her turn to work the day shift again. There were hardly any people left in the inpatient department, so her work hours were very relaxed.

Although she's now free here, no one wants to move her to the front clinic. Moving her there would be such a waste of her talents. They're fine with the front clinic.

In the afternoon, the sun, which had been hanging in the sky for nearly three years, suddenly dimmed. The high temperature of 70 or 80 degrees Celsius dropped in an instant. Or perhaps it didn't drop in an instant; it should be said that the temperature had been dropping all day, but now it dropped particularly sharply.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Lin Yue took out an outdoor thermometer to measure her temperature. After a while, she picked it up and saw that, wow, the temperature, which had been maintained at 80 degrees Celsius for nearly three years, had suddenly dropped to 28 degrees Celsius. The temperature drop was as shocking as a sudden drop from a great height.

As the temperature reached a level suitable for everyone to live in, a deafening cheer suddenly erupted from the direction of the hospital lobby. The cheers were mixed with cries and screams of people releasing their stress.

However, the sound didn't last long. Suddenly, as if a pause button had been pressed, no one made a sound anymore, and what followed was the whistling of the wind.

The open windows rattled loudly in the wind. Soon, the windows that hadn't been closed in time shattered and fell down, some of the debris being swept into the air before falling back down.

The extreme heat has passed, but this time, God didn't give humanity, already riddled with problems, any chance to react, and the extreme heat transitioned directly to extreme winds.

Lin Yue sat in her office, listening to the whooshing sounds outside the building, and occasionally seeing pieces of trash "dancing" in the air.

Inside the base, some people who were outside and didn't have time to go back could only find something nearby to hold onto. Even more terrifying, some children who were playing quietly at the entrance were blown several meters away by the strong wind before they even realized what was happening.

The child's cries startled the family, and the adults who rushed out frantically picked up their child and took him home. You can imagine how difficult that process must have been.

The wind was still howling outside, and night fell quickly.

The night wind showed no sign of abating, as if it were showing off its powerful arms to the survivors.

Lin Yue hasn't gotten up since she sat down in the afternoon. She's been sitting in the chair ever since, listening to the wind outside blowing tirelessly.

She is very worried about Cang Yu now.

They were patrolling outside when the wind picked up in the afternoon. I wonder if there was anywhere to take shelter? What if they were blown away by the strong wind?

The more Lin Yue thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.

"Dr. Lin, you'll be staying in the inpatient ward tonight. There are a few rooms available on the third floor; feel free to choose one. The conditions are a bit basic, but it won't affect your accommodation," the hospital director said as he returned to his office after checking the rooms and saw Lin Yue lost in thought.

"Dean, I'm not staying at the hotel." Hearing the dean's arrangement for her, Lin Yue finally came to her senses and refused directly.

"Dr. Lin, it's so windy outside, there's no way to go back. Why don't you stay here for the night?" the hospital director urged anxiously.

"Dean, I'm going back now." Lin Yue didn't want to waste any more words, so she got up, walked past the dean, and headed towards the hospital's changing room.

Upon arriving at the changing room, Lin Yue found herself alone. She locked the door and then entered the space.

After rummaging around in the space, she finally found an upgraded windproof suit and immediately put it on.

"Yueyue, why don't you just use your consciousness to find things? It's too much trouble to search by yourself." Kongling flew to Lin Yue's side.

"I can't remember what it's called right now, so I didn't use my mind." This thing was also spat out by the space. After taking it out, she had been keeping it unused, and she had long forgotten its use and name.
