But after what happened before, he didn't dare to ask his father to do anything.
Shen Yanming looked at his son, who was deep in thought, smiled, and didn't ask any questions.
Afterwards, I took some time to visit Yunling Mountain and left a batch of grain and a pile of meat there. Although they were all unprocessed pork, beef, mutton, chicken, duck, and rabbit, since they were produced by the space, the taste and quality were not a problem.
Although the outside temperature is above freezing, it's only around four or five degrees Celsius, which is similar to the temperature in a refrigerator. It should keep for three to five days without spoiling.
Shen Yanming had also considered the possibility of something happening to the guards who went out to retrieve the goods if they were placed so far away. However, placing them at the base would be too easy to expose. Although the Wen Alliance official forbade an investigation, everyone was already speculating, and he didn't want to be among the suspects.
Worried that the guards wouldn't know, he even left clues within the team discreetly while going to the hospital.
As expected, the base transported the supplies from Yunling Mountain back the next day. Wen Chao was very pleased and gave everyone an extra meal. With the addition of meat, the wounded recovered much faster.
----------
In the capital, a bunch of high-ranking officials were practically balding from looking at their subordinates' reports. Overall, Haishi had the lowest casualties.
Wen Chaohui reported their measures immediately. When General Li learned of this, he arranged for people to test them, without much suspicion.
Wen Mengguan also sent the capital a prescription given by Shen Yanming. However, the capital already had this prescription, and although it was effective, it wasn't miraculous.
Wen Chaohui had no idea that the people in Haishi recovered so quickly entirely thanks to the first few pots of medicine that Comrade Shen had brewed.
Not only are the medicinal herbs grown in the space used, but even the water used to brew the medicine is spiritual spring water.
The good thing is that there's no shortage of medicinal herbs in the capital. A large quantity grew on the small hill in Li Sikai's space, enough not only to supply the survivors at the capital base, but also to meet the needs of more than a dozen surrounding bases.
Everyone was used to the small ice age, so the sudden crisis caught them off guard. Dean Xu immediately realized that this was a new disaster and hurriedly arranged for people to study it, only to find that they couldn't detect the pattern of the hot gas eruption at all.
However, the instruments showed that these gases contained large amounts of carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and sulfur dioxide, similar to gases emitted during volcanic eruptions. This seemed to indirectly confirm Mao Mengguan's conjecture.
When Mao Mengguan found out, he was stunned. He asked in a panic, "Has a volcano erupted?"
"No, but it's almost like a volcanic eruption. Old Mao, can you guess how long this disaster will last, and what the world will be like afterward?"
Mao Mengguan plucked out a tuft of the few remaining hairs on his head, looking at the short hairs in his hand with heartache, and said, "How would I know how long this would last? But if all the heat comes out, it certainly won't be so cold."
Everyone was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "You mean our world is going to return to normal?"
Mao Mengguan crumpled the hairs on his fingertips into a ball and threw it into the trash can, furious. "What do you mean? I'm not a god, why are you asking me? What if I'm wrong, you'll kill me!"
"Old Mao, we just wanted some reassurance, nothing more, haha!"
Mao Mengguan curled his lip, not believing it at all. He ran away in a flash and, for a long time afterward, avoided those guys who came to him for information.
Meanwhile, Li Sikai made a new discovery.
Ever since the planet started spewing hot air, his space began a slow upgrade that lasted for six months. Peng Baoxin and Li Sa happened to be inside at the time and recorded the upgrade process once again.
Li Sikai didn't enter because he hadn't sensed the space was about to upgrade.
By the time I realized it, it was too late. Fortunately, my health had improved considerably in the past two years, and I managed to hold on and not faint.
Li Sikai tried it out and found that although people could not enter or leave after the upgrade, there was still no problem with storing and placing items.
The signal in the space was not cut off, so the group of people lived in the space for more than half a year with both surprise and helplessness, without going out.
When General Li learned of this, his feelings were complicated. On one hand, he was grateful to Xiao Kai for becoming Qinghua Kingdom's pillar of strength during the crisis; on the other hand, he felt sorry for Xiao Kai having to bear such immense pressure.
Although the space upgrade wasn't kept secret, everyone was trying to avoid the potential for a sudden eruption of heat, so it didn't attract much attention. It was only learned of by chance that the news spread through word of mouth until everyone knew about it.
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan learned about Li Sikai's space upgrade a month later. They were completely dumbfounded when they found out, thinking, "Why did this happen? He really came to save the world."
Once the tablet is turned on and connected to the signal, you can see Peng Baoxin looking utterly hopeless as he points the camera at the rolling clouds in the distance.
"My God, this is really spectacular. I wonder if Li Sikai's body can handle it."
"It should be alright, otherwise General Li would have sent someone to find us long ago."
"With the heat erupting so frequently outside, it wouldn't be easy for people from the capital to come over."
"If Li Sikai had any problems, they would have come over no matter how much manpower and resources they had to spare. It's just that this time it turned out alright."
"Yes, hopefully his space can be upgraded as soon as possible."
No sooner had they finished speaking than a loud bang was heard. Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were used to such things, but to their surprise, a short while later they heard a commotion outside. It turned out that a large hole had been made in an office building in Area A by the ejected gas.
Don't ask how this hole came about, it was smashed!
That's right, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan heard the commotion and took their two children to join in the fun, only to find a huge rock in the damaged part of the building.
According to witnesses, the rock erupted from the ground. The force was so great that it smashed through the wall. The large hole from which the rock emerged disappeared after the hot air was expelled; it's unknown what filled it.
As for that huge rock, it was about the size of a washbasin. It was black, dotted with speckles, and looked incredibly sparkling in the sunlight. It resembled purple or blue sandstone, quite mysterious. But aren't those stones artificially synthesized?
Everyone was stunned. Having experienced so much, their minds had become more discerning. They wondered if this stone might have some special purpose.
No one dared to act directly, so they reported it to the guard team. Wen Chaohui arrived late with his men, and after moving the stones to the warehouse in protective suits, he called Chief Alliance Officer Li to report.
Upon receiving the call, General Li immediately asked, "How big is it? What does it look like?"
Wen Chaohui did not hide anything and reported the estimated dimensions.
Then he said worriedly, "General, I'm just worried about whether this thing has radiation. If it does, everyone in this entire base will be wiped out."
