Chapter 184 Extreme Cold. Acting Separately
Chu An and Gu Ye returned to Qingrun Apartment before dark. They didn't rush upstairs, but looked at the sky for a while. They returned to 1111 after dark. The first thing they did was to install a surveillance camera on the window under the cover of night.
Nothing happened for the next two days, and the surveillance cameras only showed people coming in and out of the building.
She guessed that Li Qing deliberately kept them for a few more days in order to protect her, but he would get to her sooner or later.
As a result, there was still no movement on the fourth and fifth days. She got dark circles under her eyes from watching the surveillance cameras.
"Xiao Ye, go down and find Wolf Head. I have something to ask him."
Gu Ye hurried downstairs. Wolf Head did not live here every day, maybe 2-3 days a week, mainly to pass on news to Li Qing.
I happened to see him coming back yesterday while on surveillance.
Chu An only asked about the whereabouts of his men, and Wolf Head answered him in detail. It was on the third day that Li Qing drove them out and then planted two undercover agents.
"I don't know where the person who was kicked out got the news that he was fired because of you, and he was secretly trying to cause trouble for you. When Brother Qing found out, he solved the problem directly." Wolf Head made a gesture of wiping his neck.
She deliberately came out when Li Qing arranged it. There were several team leaders present, so she must have a good relationship with them, so a casual word in private would be enough.
It is understandable from an outsider's perspective, but I didn't expect Li Qing to be so cruel. After all, he is the number one in South City.
Now that it was resolved, the matter came to an end, and she hurried to catch up on some sleep.
In the past few days, the rice in the space has matured.
Neither she nor Shen Xun had any experience in harvesting rice, so they could only refer to the video and divide the work.
Chu An was in charge of releasing water from the pond and harvesting with sickles. Chen Xun was in charge of felling trees and building a 300-square-meter drying yard.
The location was chosen to be near the rice fields, about one kilometer away from the living area, and towards a maple forest, which would be used for drying rice in the future.
The two of them worked until the day before New Year's Day, when they finally dried and threshed all the rice.
After the rice is harvested, this place will serve as Yuantuo's transit station. She used her mental power to move a space capsule with two bedrooms and a living room.
Before New Year's Day, Lao Li also completed the work. The training tools were made in a very good condition, mainly obstacle props, A-frames, balance beams, railings, tunnels, etc.
Before Chen Xun, he also used the existing conditions to make some collars, muzzles, chest harnesses and leashes, and would study the deficiencies later.
In between harvesting rice, he would take the dogs to adapt to obstacles.
In order to be able to hunt with the dogs in the future, Chu An learned a lot of commands.
The dogs look more majestic after training, and the small dogs are also full of energy.
"That puppy is so beautiful." She asked, pointing at the only puppy with a nest.
Chen Xun introduced that this is a very rare and extremely difficult to breed sheepdog, which normally does not exist in China.
He called it Little Blue.
Xiao Lan's entire body is blue-black, and the more sunlight there is, the bluer it appears. His eyes are amber, sometimes with a green shadow. He looks very much like a wolf, but has a very docile personality.
"It's a companion dog and Wang Ce's favorite dog."
Oh, so that’s why I have my own nest. This is double standard.
The space is filled with joy, and order outside the space is gradually being restored. Under the patrol of the joint defense team, people can travel normally and visit relatives and friends.
In the previous life, the government also took advantage of this period of stable temperature to build bases and resume production. The agricultural bases also developed cold-resistant wheat, cold-resistant sweet potatoes, cold-resistant cabbage and various mushrooms, which would be distributed to the people after the New Year.
In the shelter, those who can afford it have access to running water and electricity.
Only Chu An knew that this was an illusion.
After the extreme cold, the extreme heat will soon come, without any breathing time. Many people with underlying diseases will not be able to survive the sudden change in temperature.
Those who make it through will enter the next purgatory.
Although it is extremely cold, you can wear more clothes and have no worries about water. But when it is extremely hot, you cannot take off your clothes even if you want to. Snakes, insects, rats, ants, heat stroke, and various epidemics will follow one after another. That is when human nature is truly tested.
Chu An didn't dare to think too far ahead and decided to achieve his current goal - digging ice.
On New Year's Day, 1112 was not at home.
Yin Tianlin and Li Rong accompanied Huo Sisi to find her childhood friend, and by the way, they also went to Yin Tianlin’s other house in City C to replenish supplies.
Tang Xiao went to see his brother and visited a newly opened private trading market nearby. They only recently learned that the two brothers had contacted each other many times during the six months of the natural disaster.
He is the city secretary, so he must have connections, especially after Li Qing told his story. How could such a powerful person not be able to protect his younger brother?
Chu An is still curious about Secretary-General Tang. If it is just about personal ability, it is amazing. He does not look like a carbon-based creature locked by genes at all.
Maybe someone can really unlock the genetic lock, like Einstein and Newton. Even in China, aren't there rumors of mysterious forces and organizations?
Of course, she was just curious and would not take the initiative to cause trouble. During the period before and after the New Year, she just wanted to quietly stock up on ice and prepare for the extreme heat.
When the temperature rises to minus 40 degrees Celsius, she will go out to find Lao Chu.
"Xiao An, Xiao An, do you think this seedling is going to die?"
Gu Ye was lifting dumbbells while watching over the planting boxes. The cucumbers and persimmons had grown to 20 centimeters, but they refused to climb up the trellis and lay tilted on the black soil, looking like they were about to die.
"Give them some time, don't rush it."
Gu Ye sighed. This was all he could do.
With his unremitting exercise, his height has grown to 186 cm. He is the type of person who looks muscular when he takes off his clothes and looks thin when he is dressed. He is really enviable.
Chu An stood by the wall and measured his height without giving up. It was 156cm, so he had finally grown one centimeter. It wasn't easy.
"Xiao An, I heard that there is a new private trading market near Xingcheng International. I want to go and take a look."
Now three or five people couldn't get close to Gu Ye, so she allowed it. It just so happened that she was also going to stock up on ice, and it was inconvenient to bring him along.
At 10 a.m., the two set out separately. The ice storage location was set at Nancheng Reservoir, where the water quality should be better.
Chu An drove the van, and Gu Ye chose to walk.
Along the way, she was sensing the Black Stone Dagger, and she could still sense it even when she drove to the reservoir. It seemed that distance was not a problem.
After getting off the car, make sure there is no one around, put the car into the space, then take out the cutter and start working on the ice surface.
In order to facilitate the search, all of them are cut into the size of single beds, with a thickness of one meter.
The sound of cutting ice is very loud, so you must always pay attention to the movements around you.
At 2pm, I took a ten-minute break, ate a piece of chocolate and drank a cup of hot milk tea.
There was no one around, which was good.
She worked until five in the afternoon, when it was already dark, and had cut 70 pieces. Her efficiency was not very high, but she had already figured out the trick, and she would probably be able to double her efficiency next time.
Take out the van from the space and head straight to Qingrun Apartment.
After driving for about an hour, I saw an off-road vehicle following us. The car was very damaged, with dents on the hood and doors to varying degrees.
