Chapter 289 Chapter 289 Hot
"How do you feel now?"
"My chest feels tight and uncomfortable, and I feel like vomiting."
He Junxia walked up to help Zhang Le, who was holding his stomach, up. It was probably because he ate too much.
"Go to the toilet and vomit. If you vomit enough, you should feel better. Otherwise, you'll have to hold it in until the food in your stomach is digested."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Le hurried to the toilet, but after a while, he came out with a sad face.
"I can't vomit. It doesn't look like I overate. Could it be something else?"
"Let me take a look."
He Junxia asked Zhang Le to lift his clothes and reached out to palpate. After a moment, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly. "Maybe he ate too much and his stomach is not motile enough."
He took the man to the toilet and pressed a few acupoints to induce vomiting. Zhang Le suddenly lowered his head and vomited.
He Juanxia slipped away: "You should vomit slowly, at least several times."
Zhang Le wanted to cry but couldn't. "I ate too much, but I didn't feel anything at all. I thought I wasn't full. Ugh—"
He stayed in the toilet for nearly half an hour before coming out with a pale face and staggering steps.
He Junxia: "How do you feel?"
Zhang Le replied weakly, "I feel much better now. I almost thought I was going to die. I don't want to eat dumplings anymore in my life."
He Junxia smiled and said, "You don't know your own appetite. You eat so much and still say you're not full, just trying to keep eating."
Zhang Le felt aggrieved: "I ate because I really felt hungry. I'm not crazy. I can't force myself to eat even if I can't."
He Junxia rubbed his chin: "Are you hungry now? Do you have a strong desire to eat?"
Zhang Le was sprawled on the couch. "I don't really want to eat, I just want to sleep, but I can eat if I have to."
He Juanxia: "Go to sleep. Don't eat when you wake up. Wait until I tell you to eat."
Zhang Le finally got smart for once.
He scratched his head. "Is it related to the black sun? I feel a little strange today too. The delivery man also said that many businesses are experiencing a surge in orders."
He Junxia remained silent.
He took out his mobile phone and opened the most popular short video software at the moment. He took a few photos of the empty dumpling boxes on the table and found a few pictures of dumplings from the dumpling shop.
Then he tapped on his phone, posted a short video from a first-person perspective, and bought 500 yuan for traffic promotion.
If Zhang Le's situation is a common phenomenon, there should be a lot of people liking and commenting on it.
“Thump”, “thump”, “thump…”
Perhaps the traffic promotion bought with real money worked, and in less than ten minutes, a series of message notification sounds continued.
He Junxia opened her phone and found that the post had been viewed over 1,500 times, had received over 300 likes, and had over 40 comments.
Even with a 500 yuan bonus for traffic promotion, the fact that a novice account can achieve such results with the first video it posts only shows that there are many people with the same experience.
He clicked on the comment section to check the comments and found that it was true. Most of the 26 comments were from people from all over the country sharing their experiences, and some were experiencing the same thing.
He Junxia responded to a comment about wanting to vomit but unable to do so with several simple methods to induce vomiting.
Otherwise, with the slow digestion ability of the bloated stomach, it would take at least three or four hours to get relief, and it would be very harmful to the stomach.
Spitting it out is the best option.
"Thump," "thump," "thump"...
The message notification sound seemed endless, and He Junxia was barely able to get relief by setting her phone to silent mode.
Zhang Le was curious: "Did your video go viral?"
He had posted a few short videos during his time, but they only garnered a handful of likes. The highest number was only 20, with most of them being friendship likes from his friends.
He Junxia: "Almost."
We just have to wait for a while to confirm that the number of likes and comments exceeds 500. Only after the sample size is large can we make a formal conclusion.
This opportunity came quickly.
Perhaps the software put the short video he posted into a larger traffic pool. In less than 60 minutes, it had over 30,000 views, over 4,000 likes, 800 comments, and a comment ratio of 5:1.
In other words, for every eight people who see the video, one will like it, and for every five people who like it, one will comment on it.
This is a ratio that many internet celebrities find difficult to achieve, which indirectly shows that many people have experienced or are experiencing the same situation.
But when He Junxia wanted to read the comments, the second-hand phone that the wisher had bought for several hundred yuan was overwhelmed and completely stuck.
He Junxia: ...
I almost forgot about this.
Zhang Le: "What's the name of your video? I'll help you watch it on my phone."
He Junxia touched his nose and said, "It seems like a string of garbled characters. I didn't pay attention."
It was the first time that Zhang Le saw his good brother being humiliated, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Under the threat of his good brother's eyes, he tried hard to suppress the upturned corners of his mouth, coughed a few times and said: "It's okay, I'll try to brush the same city."
Fortunately, the city they live in is a small 18th-tier city, and there are not many people who like to post short videos. Zhang Le quickly saw the popular videos in the same city posted by novice accounts.
"Damn, I told you there was something wrong with yesterday's black sun. Gengzi, look, a lot of people are just like me today, not knowing how to eat."
He Junxia took his phone and scrolled through the comments.
Some comments were about their own experiences, some were echoing @friends, some were discussing methods of inducing vomiting, and a very small number of people were talking to immortals because they simply couldn't understand or read human language.
He Junxia rubbed his brows, glanced down at those outrageous remarks that seemed to be out of his mind, and found that many people had indeed encountered the same situation as Zhang Le today.
These people come from all over the country, and there are even international students from across the ocean, so regional influences can basically be ruled out.
His guess was correct!
He Junxia told Zhang Le his guess, and Zhang Le immediately drooped: "What should we do? We won't die, will we?"
He Junxia: "If you control your diet, you won't."
Zhang Le seemed to have thought of something and asked in confusion, "Why don't you feel hungry? The Black Sun won't pick on people to harm, will it?"
He Junxia: "I'm not sure yet. You didn't close the curtains last night, and I slept with them closed."
He lied.
He was almost certain that he was not affected by the black sun, which was closely related to the little black eggs that fed on the black sun's rays.
Zhang Le regretted it deeply after hearing this: "I didn't close the curtains. It must be the influence of the black sunlight. It's too dark."
He Junxia: "We shouldn't go out recently. The black sun will definitely appear again. I even suspect it has already appeared."
Zhang Le opened his mouth: "What do you mean, there's nothing outside."
He Junxia: "Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Don't you think this summer is exceptionally hot?"
The city where the wisher lives is like spring all year round, with rare extreme weather. The highest temperature in previous years was only 35°C.
However, after June this year, the temperature has been stable at around 35℃, and it has even reached 40℃ since July.
Today, temperatures of 41°C and 42°C have become the norm. Even in the country's coldest northern cities, the average daily temperature has reached 36°C.
It's hard not to suspect that the Black Sun is at work.
What's even more terrifying is that short-term extreme high temperatures won't have a significant impact on nature. But if this continues for years, the entire natural world will undergo earth-shaking changes.
Not to mention, which major crops such as rice, corn, and sweet potatoes can withstand such a toss?
How long can the grain in the national granary last?
He Junxia's face changed slightly, and he thought of another situation - since the beginning of summer, there has been almost no rain in the local area, and there have been many reports of drought in surrounding counties and cities.
Moreover, they are located in a large province with relatively abundant water resources, and are almost crossed by a large river with countless large and small tributaries.
The disaster situation in other areas can be imagined.
Zhang Le looked at He Junxia's solemn expression and said tremblingly, "In ancient times, there was Houyi shooting down the sun. Can modern technology kill the black sun? Gengzi, do you have any impression?"
He Junxia fell into a long silence.
Zhang Le was also about to despair.
Come to think of it, according to the rules of rebirth in novels, most of the reborn people have had a particularly miserable life in their previous life.
And the miserable life is enough to show how powerful the Black Sun is.
Otherwise, with my good brother's profitable barbecue skills, he could live comfortably and buy a house and a car anywhere.
Bad day, bad world!
Zhang Le collapsed on the sofa and pretended to be dead. Dead, dead, dead. Ahhhhh, so annoying.
"Why bother if you're already dead?"
He Junxia couldn't help but chuckle when he heard him mumbling. He stood up and stretched his body, performing a set of Five Animal Exercises. "Would you like to exercise with me?"
Zhang Le: "Yes, yes, yes."
He admitted that he was blind in the past and dared to look down on the things left by his ancestors.
He Junxia reminded: "Eat according to the food I give you in the future. Don't eat anything else, or you will be in trouble."
Zhang Le shrugged, "I understand."
He Juanxia: "OK, you stay home, I'll go out and buy some things."
Zhang Le: "Are you still buying?"
Although he thought it was not strange to stock up on things when a disaster struck, their house was almost full.
He Junxia: "Buy water. The drinking water storage at home is too low. I also need to buy some more digestion pills and stomach protection pills."
He only bought common cold medicines, anti-inflammatory medicines, heatstroke treatment medicines, sunburn treatment medicines, etc., but he never thought that the black sun could also cause people to overeat.
After hearing the last sentence, Zhang Le closed his mouth silently.
"Take your umbrella with you. I remember my umbrella can protect you from the sun. Don't be shy. Your life is more important."
"No, I'll buy it at the nearby pharmacy and small supermarket and will be back soon."
The key is that it is difficult to move things with an umbrella.
He Junxia quickly rushed out the door and ran back quickly, while Zhang Le stood at the exit of the building where the sunlight could not reach him, and took the water and medicine in his hands home.
The two of them worked together in perfect harmony, and there were twenty boxes of 24 bottles of 550ml mineral water and fifty bottles of 4-liter barrels of mineral water under the bed at home.
In addition, He Junxia ordered five barrels of bottled water from two stores, enough drinking water for several months.
It's crazy!
…
Time flew by and it was night. He Junxia's second-hand mobile phone was still stuck and motionless, and even the power button was out of control.
Because the video he posted became popular nationwide, the number of likes has exceeded one million, and the number of comments has exceeded one hundred thousand. In addition, countless marketing accounts that are chasing the popularity have analyzed and commented on this phenomenon.
The good news is that the government has probably noticed this and will probably work overtime to invite real experts to analyze and explore the causes and solutions to this situation.
Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang.
Maybe we can't give you a corresponding treatment plan immediately, but we can at least make some useful suggestions.
"I'm going to bed. Remember to close the curtains when you go to bed. Don't be lazy."
Although closing the curtains might not be of much use, after all, they are not light-blocking curtains - unfortunately, he remembered it too late, and the nearest curtain shops were not open for business, otherwise He Junxia would have replaced the light-colored curtains in the two bedrooms long ago.
Now I can only fold and hang sheets as a substitute.
He Junxia then instructed, "If you're hungry later, you can cook two packets of instant noodles. After finishing the noodles, you absolutely cannot eat anything else. If you really can't control yourself, wake me up."
Zhang Le: "Do you have a solution?"
He Junxia said with a forced smile: "I can tie you up and make sure you can't eat anything you want."
Zhang Le shuddered uncontrollably, scratched his head and chuckled, "Don't worry, I can definitely control it. I'm Zhang Le!"
I hope so.
A faint sixth sense told He Junxia that this night would not be peaceful.
