Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan looked at their phones for a while before putting them down.
Then, watching the two little ones crawling around, I picked them up. Their chubby little bodies felt nice to the touch.
An An's bright, innocent eyes and her little gestures of pointing her fingers and making "ah ah" sounds are incredibly cute.
The couple couldn't resist giving their baby a kiss on the cheek, which made them giggle.
"Are you hungry? Do you need to poop?" Bi Qiaoan muttered to herself, without considering whether the two babies could understand her.
Seeing that the two of them were squirming restlessly, I had no choice but to put them back on the bed.
However, the smile on An An's face froze the moment he touched the bed.
Then she was on the verge of crying, too afraid to move. Seeing that no one came to help, she suddenly burst into tears.
Shen Yanming was startled, thinking that the little one's arm was being pressed down, and quickly went over to pick him up. But then he noticed that the diaper on the little one's arched bottom had changed color.
So this is what happens when you pull a poop? They really know how to pick their timing.
Old Shen could only pick up a certain caterpillar, peel off the diaper, throw it away, and then change into a clean one.
An'an's bottom dried again, and she stopped crying. She continued to wriggle forward like a caterpillar.
Shen Yanming picked up Nuannuan and asked, "Does the little princess need to pee?"
Nuannuan just giggled and didn't react much else. Shen Yanming put her down so she could continue playing with An'an, while he sat down in a chair to chat with his wife.
“It’s getting colder outside. Maybe you shouldn’t go to morning training anymore,” Shen Yanming discussed with Bi Qiaoan.
Bi Qiaoan knew that this was his good intention, but there were not many women participating in the morning training. If she didn't go, she guessed that Instructor Zhang would not be happy to lead the female guard team.
Seeing Bi Qiaoan hesitate, Shen Yanming said, "Girls are all afraid of the cold. You can still resist it now, but in the dead of winter, the cold wind will seep into your bones. I'm afraid your body won't be able to handle it."
"But there's also spiritual spring water and spiritual fruits."
“But they’re not a cure-all. Even if eating things imbued with spiritual energy nourishes the body and doesn’t leave any aftereffects, you still suffered back then. I don’t want my lover to suffer unnecessary pain.”
"Why is it unnecessary? Shouldn't we face the challenge head-on?"
Shen Yanming didn't know how to explain it to her.
After thinking for a while, I figured it was something like: "The guards don't expect us to go on missions. Learning these fighting techniques is most likely for self-defense."
When faced with extreme weather, the best approach is to avoid it rather than try to tough it out.
All you need to do is master the survival skills taught by Captain Qi and stay alive. As for the rest, we can talk about that after the extreme weather ends.
Bi Qiaoan felt that Shen Yanming's words made some sense, but at the same time, she felt that his reasoning was a bit flawed.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "How about this, while the weather isn't too cold yet, I'll keep exercising. Once winter comes, and it gets below freezing or snows, I'll take a day off. What do you think?"
Shen Yanming nodded. "Okay. Don't worry, they all know that our two babies are less than six months old, so they can understand why we don't send them to early training. You don't need to feel guilty."
Bi Qiaoan smiled and said, "I don't feel guilty. Many times, I do want to slack off." I just didn't dare to say it and forced myself to bear it.
Speaking of snow, the couple realized that Qinghua Kingdom hadn't seen any rain since the heavy rain in early June.
This is very unusual.
However, it doesn't seem like a drought. After all, the groundwater level is normal and hasn't dropped at all.
----------
In the capital, the alliance leaders held another meeting.
Li Zongjun asked Mao Zongjun, "What are the recent data like?"
Mao Mengguan shook his head: "It's not optimistic. The sea level continues to drop, and it has already dropped by more than ten meters so far, and the rate of seawater loss is getting faster and faster. If this continues, the continental shelf will be exposed."
The group of bigwigs looked at each other in disbelief, quite shocked by the news.
"What should we do?" a bigwig lamented.
"It feels like Planet is trying to kill us!" another bigwig complained, frowning.
"By the way, should we inform other countries about this discovery?" Mao asked Li, the chief of the alliance.
Li Zongmengguan was also somewhat unsure, "This phenomenon is global, and other countries must have already noticed it."
"It's hard to say, otherwise they wouldn't have remained completely silent."
"Perhaps they have already discovered the cause and have a solution."
"Then why don't they come out and show off? Do they seem like the kind of people who can keep things to themselves?"
"The key point is that we are only guessing."
We had only heard about global warming and melting glaciers causing sea levels to rise, but no one knew that sea levels would actually continue to fall.
It's normal to be confused when you encounter this kind of situation.
I think regardless of whether other countries have discovered it or not, we should still notify them.
"Don't let anyone outside of Qinghua Kingdom know about this. If something happens, we won't even have anyone to help us."
A moment of silence fell over everyone. After a long while, General Li said, "Let's notify them one by one, regardless of whether they know it or not, or whether they believe it or not."
Everyone nodded. Then, Chief Alliance Officer Li asked, "How is the construction going over the Kunmeng Mountains?"
"It's proceeding smoothly. The workers are adapting well, and the foundation has already been laid."
"Yes, we should expedite construction while also ensuring the normal livelihood of the laborers."
"knew!"
"Alright, let's adjourn the meeting."
With a wave of his hand, General Li dismissed everyone.
Then everyone went about their own business, doing whatever they needed to do.
The high-ranking official in charge of diplomacy contacted other heads of state to inform them of the drop in sea levels.
Some countries have already noticed this phenomenon and have even communicated with Qin's allied officials. Others have expressed alarm and inquired about what exactly is going on.
Qin Mengguan could say nothing at all.
After thinking for a moment, he could only say tactfully, "Our Qinghua Kingdom has only discovered this phenomenon. We haven't yet reached a conclusion on the specific reasons or the potential consequences."
If you have any constructive suggestions or groundbreaking discoveries, please feel free to share them with Qinghua Guo. We hope everyone can work together to resolve this issue as soon as possible.
Everyone fell silent, and they all said they would strengthen surveillance and inform Qinghua Kingdom if anything was discovered.
----------
Time flew by and it was almost the end of December. Just as everyone had guessed, the temperature in Haishi really did drop to minus thirty degrees Celsius.
However, there has been no rain. More than six months without precipitation, and the dry, cold weather has terrified everyone.
If it weren't for the tap water still flowing in the pipes, one might think that Qinghua Kingdom was experiencing another drought.
However, many citizens of Qinghua Kingdom, who had experienced water shortages before, secretly began storing water.
Although Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan did not store water, they were very worried about this unusual situation.
