64. Chapter 64 It’s snowing



"As long as you sleep well." Mu Qianqian's voice was tearful, but her emotions had stabilized. "You should hurry back to bed and lean on the baby. It's too cold outside. I just looked at the thermometer, and it's already more than 20 degrees below zero.

This is not the scariest thing. The scariest thing is that the temperature is still dropping. Nanci, do you have thick clothes? Put them on quickly!"

After Mu Qianqian finished speaking, the old Taoist priest's voice sounded.

"I went to the window and took a look. The rain outside had turned into snow. The snow was so heavy that I have never seen it in all my years. You must keep warm at night and don't sleep if you can."

Listening to their instructions, Nan Ci was touched. "I still have a lot of warm clothes here. By the way, I really like the smell of cooking on a big pot, so I bought two online. I can't use them all myself, so you can come and move one. It will be much warmer with a fire."

"Really?" Mu Qianqian's voice was full of surprise.

She felt like she was about to freeze to death, but at this time, someone told her that they could build a fire for her. How could she not be surprised?

"Really? Come and move quickly. I'll open the door for you."

After saying this, Nan Ci quickly put down the intercom, took out a large stove from the space and placed it in the corner of the living room, and piled dozens of boxes of charcoal and hundreds of bags of firewood next to it.

After hearing the knock on the door, Nan Ci subconsciously went to open it.

After taking just two steps out, Nan Ci stopped again, took out the express package by the stream in the space, piled it in the kitchen, closed the bedroom door, and then opened it.

Standing outside the door were Mu Qianqian and the other two. All three of them were wrapped tightly, with only a pair of eyes exposed.

Although they were wrapped tightly, the three of them were still shivering, which showed that they were very cold.

Seeing them like this, Nan Ci didn't waste any words, "Come in and move it quickly."

As he spoke, Nan Ci moved aside to let the three people in.

Although they have known each other for such a long time, this is the first time that Mu Qianqian and the other two have come to Nan Ci's house.

After entering the door, the three of them subconsciously looked around.

After seeing that the surrounding walls, ceiling and floor were the same silver-gray color, the three of them were stunned.

Mu Qianqian directly expressed her doubts, "Nan Ci, what style of decoration is this in your house?"

"Technology style."

Although Mu Qianqian only showed her eyes, she still clearly expressed her confusion.

Nan Ci didn't mean to explain. He led the three people into the living room and pointed at the big pot in the corner. "This is it. Hurry up and carry it over. The big pot on top can be taken down. Don't let the pot burn dry. Remember to put water in it. There are firewood and charcoal next to it. You can move some of them as well."

In such a cold day, without electricity or heating, having a big stove like this is more happiness than anything else.

Mu Qianqian looked at Nan Ci eagerly, her eyes were red and filled with tears.

Zhou Ziyang was not much better than Mu Qianqian, but at least he could still speak.

"Nan Ci, you gave this to us, then you——"

"I have another one." Nan Ci interrupted Zhou Ziyang and pointed in the direction of the balcony, "There's another one over there, I'll light it up in a moment. I also installed a fireplace, and it will definitely be warmer than yours if we light them together."

Mu Qianqian burst into laughter, and when she blinked, tears fell.

But because the temperature was too low, the tears on her eyelashes were frozen, making them look like they were painted with white mascara, which looked a little funny.

Mu Qianqian couldn't see her own appearance, but she could feel the coolness around her eyes. After rubbing them, she found a lot of white ice chips on the back of her hands.

Seeing this scene, Mu Qianqian felt embarrassed and ashamed and couldn't cry anymore.

"Stop crying and move quickly. It will be warmer if you make a fire. I want to make a fire too." Nan Ci urged again.

This time the old Taoist priest spoke up, "We won't be polite with you. We'll just move the things away. It's so cold that the water below will probably freeze. We'll go out and find something to burn and bring it to you when the time comes."

Nan Ci did not comment on what the old Taoist said.

If the old Taoist priest gave it to her, she would accept it.

If he didn't send it to her, she wouldn't ask for it back, but they would definitely drift apart in the future.

It’s not that Nan Ci cares about this little fuel, but he doesn’t want the old Taoist priest to be someone who goes back on his word.

The big pot table is a square cube, which is not small in size and heavy in weight.

Afraid that the three of them couldn't lift it, Nan Ci also helped to lift it.

The four of them worked together and easily carried the large cooking stove to the living room next door.

The four of them ran back and forth several times and brought back some firewood and charcoal.

Not a lot was moved, and the fire kept burning 24 hours a day, so it would probably last five or six days.

Four or five days is enough for them to find fuel.

Nan Ci had no doubt whether the three of them could find fuel.

Not to mention Mu Qianqian and Zhou Ziyang, just the old Taoist priest is not a simple person. It's just finding fuel, which is not an easy task.

After seeing the three of them off, Nan Ci closed the door, locked it, and immediately went to light the fireplace and the big stove.

Put the firewood in, pour a little combustion accelerant, and the fire will start instantly.

It would be enough to just use firewood for the fireplace, but on the big pot, Nan Ci still threw a lot of charcoal onto the burning firewood.

There is a smoke exhaust duct above the big pot table, which has been installed, and the burning smoke can be discharged directly.

Not only that, the house itself has smoke exhaust vents, more than one, so there is no need to worry about carbon dioxide poisoning.

Nan Ci also gave the old Taoist priest the smoke exhaust duct, believing that they could install it themselves.

It doesn’t matter if there is no electric drill. The old Taoist priest is very good at swinging the sledgehammer and can easily smash a smoke exhaust outlet.

As the big pot and the fireplace started burning, the room gradually became warmer.

But this was not enough, Nan Ci found an electric blanket from the space and spread it on the bed.

Then take out a large mobile power bank and plug in the electric blanket.

It won’t be long before the quilt becomes warm, and then you’ll be able to sleep comfortably.

Nan Ci didn't feel that cold as he was busy all the time. He walked to the window with a hand warmer in his hands.

I just heard the old Taoist priest say that it was snowing outside, but I didn’t have time to check.

Now I walked to the window, opened the blinds, shone the flashlight outside, and sure enough, I saw the heavy snow falling.

Under normal circumstances, no matter how heavy the snow is, it will still fall down lightly.

But now, the snow was falling in pieces, bigger than Nan Ci's fist, falling down one by one.

If you were standing in the open air, even if you weren't injured, it would still be very painful.

But it was late at night and the outside was full of water, so no one was outside and we were lucky enough to escape.
