The residents of Building C were used to peace and quiet, and no one wanted strangers to enter, but with the government's notice, they finally gritted their teeth and accepted it.
Nine empty rooms, eight of which were occupied. The one on the 23rd floor remained empty, and no one outside knew about it.
None of these white frost products were involved; the government has already notified them. What else can be said?
They simply took out a security door that they had bought from the building materials market and had Bai Jiu and his team install it at the entrance to the 19th floor stairwell so as not to affect other residents going up and down the stairs.
The next morning, when Bai Shuang and her friends went downstairs to exercise, they encountered two newly moved-in households. They were noticeably different from the original residents of Building C.
When watching the snow leopard, my eyes were filled with curiosity and greed. These days, people are starving to death, and yet there are still people keeping dogs?
The snow leopard sensed their uncomfortable gazes and bared its teeth at them.
But when they saw Bai Shuang and the other two's figures and clothing, they knew they were no ordinary people, so they quickly lowered their heads, but still stole glances at them out of the corner of their eyes.
After that, Bai Shuang and the others spent their days exercising, refining medicine, and studying.
Building 19 is relatively peaceful for the time being, and on the surface, it seems the same as before.
Bai Shuang first prepared the medicinal herbs that the military camp had previously planted on the hillside, then added spiritual spring water to refine them into a traditional Chinese medicine that was easy to take.
Those seeds were originally given by the frost, and they were common medicines for treating colds, fevers, diarrhea, and the like. But these were exactly what was needed most, especially in this extremely cold weather.
In the apocalypse, even a cold can be fatal, so you have to get it done as soon as possible.
By the end of March, the batch of medicine for the military camp was finally finished being refined, and Bai Shuang now needed to consider the matter of manufacturing mulberry bark paper.
Mulberry bark paper itself is a medicinal ingredient, promoting liver detoxification, relieving symptoms caused by liver inflammation, cooling the blood, and alleviating respiratory symptoms.
It is the preferred paper for rolling moxa sticks.
The mulberry bark paper that the Bai family hospital's pharmacy had collected was almost used up in the early stages. Now, due to the extreme cold, the virus is temporarily dormant. Once the extreme heat arrives, there will be rampant epidemics, and there is also the possibility of various mutated poisonous insects.
So, while you still have time, you should start preparing what needs to be prepared.
One morning, as Bai Shuang was planning to make mulberry bark paper, her walkie-talkie rang. It was Lu Yu calling, saying that a scientist had been injured and infected, and he wanted Bai Shuang to come and take a look.
Injuries and infections can be fatal even before a disaster, let alone in a post-apocalyptic world lacking medical care and medicine. Remembering the desperate spirit of Yang Ling and the other scientists, Bai Shuang agreed without hesitation.
Lu Yu sent Liu Qiang from upstairs to carry Bai Shuang on a sled.
After finishing breakfast, Bai Shuang prepared to leave. This time, she would only take Bai Jiu with her. The situation in Building C was complicated, so Bai Chang had to stay behind to guard the gate.
When she reached the window on the eighth floor, Liu Dong was already waiting outside with a sled. Bai Shuang remembered the snowmobiles she had stockpiled in the United States.
Since there are snowmobiles available, why suffer this ordeal? In the freezing cold of minus 50 degrees Celsius, sliding for dozens of miles on a sled, even with a mask on, you're afraid your face will freeze.
"Give me the sled, you wait a moment."
Bai Shuang and Bai Jiu paddled their sleds to a secluded spot, put away the sleds, and released the snowmobile.
Bai Jiu opened his eyes wide, staring at the white and blue lightning bolt logo of the world-famous brand. "Wow! That's so cool! Let's take it for a spin."
Bai Shuang nodded. Driving there too early would make it impractical for Liu Dong to realize that their car pick-up points were too close together. It would be better to take a detour.
About half an hour later, Bai Shuang and Bai Jiu arrived in front of Liu Qiang in a snowmobile. He was also surprised, but having followed Lu Yu for many years, he naturally understood the rules and could not casually pry into other people's secrets.
The three of them got into the snowmobile, with Bai Jiu driving and Liu Qiang pointing the way.
This was the first time Bai Shuang had traveled far since the extreme cold began. Looking out through the car window, all she could see was white, a very clean white, and she didn't see a single person on the road.
It took about two hours to reach our destination.
This was also Bai Shuang's first visit to the Cold-Resistant Crops Research Institute, which was temporarily set up by the Tangcheng City Government and was located in a relatively tall office building.
After entering through a door with a window, and walking about twenty meters, I entered a fairly spacious room, which served as a temporary clinic.
At that moment, a young man walked out from inside and asked with a smile, "Miss Bai, do you still recognize me?"
Bai Shuang also thought the man looked vaguely familiar, but couldn't quite place him. "Who are you?"
"You forgot, we met in Sheepbell before the natural disaster."
Bai Shuang suddenly remembered that he was the friend who was with Lu Yu back then. She remembered that he had asked her if she knew who Lu Yu was.
"You are Lu Yu's friend."
Director Wei nodded. "I didn't expect to see you again."
"You must be tired from the journey! Quickly sit down and rest, have a cup of hot water."
Someone nearby introduced him as Wei, the director of the research institute.
Inside, there was a coal stove connected to a stainless steel pipe leading to a chimney and an electric light.
Further inside, you'll see an elderly patient with a white cloth wrapped around his head, leaning against the bed with his eyes closed, resting.
Two familiar-looking people were sitting next to him; they seemed to be there to visit him in the hospital.
These two were the scientists that Bai Shuang and her team had rescued from Yang Ling last time. They nodded and greeted Bai Xue and her team when they saw them come in.
Behind the patient is the doctor who is in charge of treating him; he is about the same age as Anming.
"Hello, my surname is Jiao."
"Hello Dr. Jiao, my surname is Bai."
The patient's forehead was severely swollen, and even the area around his eyes was inflamed. Bai Jiu, with his good eyesight, recognized him immediately.
"Pao Pao! Who beat you up like this? When did you get into a fight?"
The old man opened his eyes. "Who brought you here?"
Bai Jiu: "Aren't you heartless again? We traveled dozens of miles in the freezing cold to treat you, and instead of being grateful, you're complaining!"
