Chapter 27 Horror! Almost froze my toes off!
Disaster is coming!
Wen Ning waited nervously for a few minutes.
But there was no prompt from the survival system.
Instead, a rumbling sound was heard outside the shelter.
Wen Ning had just leaned over to take a look when a huge ball of snow hit the window with a thud!
Then, crackling sounds came from all directions, continuously impacting Wen Ning's shelter.
Fortunately, my windows are made of synthetic reinforced glass.
Resisted the attack of the snowball.
Hearing the noise outside the house, Wen Ning took out the thick quilt.
"It sounds like a blizzard."
【Regional Channel: Did everyone sleep? The snow is falling heavily. I never thought I would see snowflakes as big as fists in my lifetime! 】
[Regional Channel: No, the snowflakes here are only the size of a thumb. There is a little wind, and although there are some crackling sounds, it should be able to hold up! 】
【Regional Channel: What? I'll just throw a big snowball here! 】
[Regional Channel: Zhanglou 5832: The severity of this snow disaster varies depending on the strength of everyone’s shelter. 】
[Regional Channel: Lao Zhang, you understand! I looked around and it was true! 】
【Regional Channel: What? Tailor-made trial tasks? Then our shelter shouldn’t be stepped on, right? 】
[Regional Channel: It is recommended to alternate between sleeping with both eyes when sleeping, so as not to sleep so deeply that you don’t notice the house collapsing. 】
[Regional Channel: Never mind, all the pillars of my house are made of stone, I’m going to sleep. 】
"So the trial missions are divided among different people. Then mine is the strongest one, right?"
As if in response to her, another large ball of snow hit the glass window.
Wen Ning slept uneasily the whole night, and woke up whenever there was any noise.
As day dawned, the noise outside died down, probably indicating that the snowstorm had stopped.
Wen Ning jumped up.
Looking out the window, oh, I can't see out.
The windows were covered with white snow, completely blocking the view.
Visually...I can't tell, it's blocked.
Wen Ning put on the constant temperature thermal clothing, then a woolen sweater, then a close-fitting rattan armor, then a loose waterproof ski suit, and finally a military green cotton-padded coat.
Gloves and socks were worn in three layers.
There is also a mask, and only the eyes are exposed on the body.
Just kidding, someone got grade 3 frostbite last night after only being exposed for a few seconds.
Wen Ning didn't dare to joke with his own life.
After being fully armed, he walked to the door and tried to open the door of the shelter.
The strong winds last night have died down, but large flakes of snow are still floating in the sky.
As soon as I opened the door, the snow outside poured in.
Wen Ning quickly took two steps back and escaped death.
"The snow is so thick!?"
Wen Ning was stunned. The cold air came and the air he exhaled through the mask was instantly frozen. The white snow piled up to a height of at least two or three meters.
It's wishful thinking to want to go out!
Wen Ning stood at the entrance for five minutes. When he found that he had not lost any consciousness, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the two or three meter high snow wall in front of him.
Wen Ning tried to collect snow with his backpack.
[Tip: After the backpack collects snow, it will automatically convert into water resources! 】
So convenient?
How much is that portion?
Wen Ning tried to collect it, and with a thought, about one cubic meter of snow in front of him disappeared in an instant.
At the same time, the backpack issues a prompt.
[Get 500ml snow water (drinkable)*1]
The exchange rate is not high, but it is not bad, enough for a bottle of mineral water.
However, water does not have a fixed shape. It is a small layer in the backpack. When you collect the second piece, the water you get is directly accumulated together with the previous one.
The snow in the yard was enough for Wen Ning to collect a lot of water.
Wen Ning smiled. The mask only covered half of her face, but in just a moment, she already felt very cold.
Every time I took a breath, my chest ached.
The vast expanse of white snow makes people feel dizzy and their heads swell.
Quickly putting on his light-blocking ski goggles, Wen Ning insisted on continuing his collection.
[Get 500ml snow water (drinkable)*1]
[Get 500ml snow water (drinkable)*1]
[Get 500ml snow water (drinkable)*1]
......
"Hiss! It's so cold!"
The temperature must be at least minus 70 or 80 degrees Celsius.
This is too targeted.
There were tiny ice spikes on Wen Ning's eyelashes, and the tip of his nose was painful from the cold. The normal runny nose had frozen before it could even come out.
There were waves of pain in my chest, as if liquid nitrogen was being pumped into it.
In order to ensure the cleanliness of the snow water, Wen Ning gave up on the layer of snow that was close to the ground.
So after the snow is collected, there will still be about 50 centimeters of snow left on the ground.
It just reached Wen Ning's knee.
Wen Ning only wore thermal pants and waterproof ski pants. After thinking for a while, he put on the one-piece long rain boots before he dared to step in.
It was very inconvenient to move in the snow, but Wen Ning gritted his teeth and persevered.
While clearing the snow in the yard, I wanted to at least take a look at what was happening outside the yard.
It took Wen Ning ten minutes to walk the short ten-meter distance from the shelter entrance to the courtyard gate.
The backpack has collected a full grid of snow water.
He suddenly opened the gate of the yard.
Wen Ning looked towards the grassland in the distance.
There was no other color in sight except white.
The hilltops, grasslands, woods, and the distant horizon were all invisible, and the sky was so low that it seemed to be very close.
"hiss!"
Wen Ning felt a biting chill coming up from his toes, and the warmth in his entire calf seemed to be being quickly sucked away.
The feeling in my toes is disappearing bit by bit.
Feeling the heat in his body rapidly dissipating, Wen Ning's heart suddenly started to alarm.
Without caring about the scene outside the yard, Wen Ning struggled to pull his legs out of the snow, turned around and moved with difficulty towards his own shelter.
"That was sloppy! Someone just got third degree frostbite last night!"
Wen Ning had a serious face. He had just been counting the backpacks, so he didn't pick up the dirty parts on the ground. Now he cleared them all up to make a path.
Rushing into the shelter, Wen Ning used his last bit of strength to close the door.
Exhausted, he leaned against the door, gasping for breath.
Without taking any more rest, Wen Ning propped himself up and stood up.
He took off his clothes one by one, and found that his non-waterproof military coat was already half wet.
Fortunately, the shelter used thermal stones, and Wen Ning felt that his lost heat was slowly recovering.
Wen Ning took off his extra wet coat, dug out a blanket, wrapped himself up like a dumpling and curled up next to the fire.
"Huh! Huh! Fortunately, otherwise..."
"It's too cold to go out dressed like this. If you stay any longer, your toes will probably freeze off!"
Wen Ning didn't want to wear Cinderella's crystal shoes, so he shook his head and gave up the idea of going out today.
He rubbed his hands together, took out another portion of perilla and threw it into the pot to boil water.
Perilla is also a medicinal herb brought out from the ruins, and it is effective in treating colds and high fevers.
It took a long time for Wen Ning to recover from the rapid hypothermia.
"Tsk, the dirty water we just collected has polluted the clean water."
When Wen Ning was walking back just now, he collected one and a half grids of clean water, and now half a grid is polluted.
Wen Ning made a wooden barrel and poured the dirty water into it, leaving only the clean water.
A backpack with 49.5 liters of clean snow water is just enough for two wooden barrels.
Fortunately, Wen Ning had a strong physique and remained vigilant, so he only spent a short time in the snow.
And they were fully armed.
Wen Ning looked at the scene outside and decided to give up the idea of going out to explore after experiencing the danger just now.
First collect the snow water in the yard, go out for five minutes, and then come back to restore the temperature.
Ordinary people cannot survive outside for a long time under such conditions. In the ice and snow, people's five senses are easily frozen, and vision and hearing will be greatly limited.
The worst case scenario is that we have to stay in the shelter for the next three days and try to find a way to collect more snow water.
After Wen Ning recovered, he poured himself a bowl of basil soup and drank it while watching the chat channel.
In the regional channel, the number of survivors dropped by several hundred again. It seems that many people rushed out impulsively this morning.
Because the regional channels were wailing at this time.
[Regional Channel: Fuck! I was collecting some snow water, and my fingers were frozen off. Now that they have warmed up, blood is flowing out! Help! 】
[Regional Channel: Is this really going to wipe out our entire army? God wants to destroy my clan! 】
[Regional Channel: Stop talking. One of my good friends was just chatting with me, but his profile picture turned gray the next second. 】
【Regional Channel: Mom, I want to go home...】
[Regional Channel: Please put some frostbite medicine on the shelves! Anything you want! Buy at a high price! 】
......
The situation is really not optimistic. People who froze to death just disappeared and we couldn’t hear what they went through.
But frostbite is different.
Wen Ning looked at the channel and saw that the survivors who chose to go out in the morning had their fingers and toes frozen off at best, and some were turned into ice sculptures at worst.
The situation this morning, although not as rapid as last night's hypothermia and frostbite, did not last much longer.
As long as you go out, someone can die at any moment.
This snowstorm is truly a natural disaster!
