After Banxia was pushed into the house by Nanxing, she stood at the door for a moment, then turned around and went to the pet room to take a look at Jinzi and Yinzi, who were still sleeping soundly.
Because the heating had been on the whole time, Jinzi and Yinzi were all warm and cozy. Fearing that the temperature might drop suddenly later, she took out a blanket from her space and covered the two furry creatures with it.
Then she went up to the sunroom on the third floor to exchange information with the Devouring Sky Tree. The bad weather had no effect on the Devouring Sky Tree, which was focused on absorbing the black mist to improve its strength. It chased her away after only a few words.
Banxia left the sunroom speechlessly, took out her phone and sent a message to their group chat with Su Yao, Cai Yuan, and Han Biao: It's hailing, and the temperature is expected to drop sharply. Everyone, don't sleep too soundly tonight, and make sure to ventilate and keep warm!
Su Yao changed the group name to "Doomsday Mutual Aid Team," and Su Yao's family members were also added to the group.
The first to respond was Cai Yuan's partner, Zhao Xuan: I knew there was a lot of crackling and popping outside!
Zhao Xuan is 33 years old this year, and his gender is male. Yes, he is male.
He and Cai Yuan are a same-sex couple and have already registered their marriage abroad. They have a very good relationship.
The second to reply was Han Biao: "Is it hailing? I need to quickly tell my parents, wife, son, and wife to put on more clothes. Thanks for reminding me!"
Banxia didn't continue reading because Nanxing returned.
After only ten minutes outside, Nanxing's face turned bright red from the cold. She felt extremely distressed and hurriedly went to push him into the bathroom to take a hot shower.
Nanxing took a few steps back: "Wife, I'm cold, stay away from me."
Banxia stopped in her tracks, feeling helpless: "I'm not going over there. You go take a shower."
Although she has recovered her health, Nanxing still subconsciously treats her like a fragile glass doll. It feels really good to have someone care for and love her all the time!
"Woo-woo-woo-woo-"
Suddenly, a rapid alarm sounded outside, alerting the public.
Banxia put aside her worries, went to the kitchen to cook a pot of ginger cola soup, poured a cup for Nanxing to warm her stomach, and put the rest into her space.
After Nanxing finished showering and drinking ginger cola soup, the two snuggled on the sofa to review the project plan.
They had already made a rough plan of what to do at each stage of the natural disaster to avoid being caught off guard and forgetting anything.
Banxia looked at the first plan: freezing ice blocks.
She slapped her forehead. Oh right, there were more than 10,000 stainless steel barrels filled with lake water in the space!
The house is now filled with things in almost every room except the garden and bedroom. To prevent people from noticing anything unusual, they haven't even put the things away.
Nanxing suggested, "Let's store the supplies from the underground parking lot in our space, and freeze the stainless steel barrels inside."
The underground parking lot is not only spacious enough to freeze a lot of water at once, but it is also located underground and not easily discovered. There is no better place than this!
The two put on their down jackets and went to the underground parking lot to put their things into their spatial storage, and then took out the stainless steel bucket.
Looking at the stainless steel buckets full of water on the ground, Banxia felt a strange sense of satisfaction. She said to Nanxing, "Let's boil some more hot water while we still have natural gas. We'll need hot water a lot more often in the future."
There are more than twenty buckets of hot water stored in the room, but it is far from enough. The weather is so cold, and the water, electricity and gas may be cut off soon. If you want to take a hot shower, you will have to slowly boil water yourself, which will take a lot of effort.
Nanxing had no objection: "Let's use a few more gas stoves to boil water together."
The two went back to the house and first went to the kitchen to boil two pots of water. Then they put all the things in the dining room into the space and took out more than ten gas cylinders and more than ten gas stoves and arranged them neatly.
Place a large bucket filled with water on each stove. Once a pot of water boils, put it back into your spatial storage, then start boiling the next pot. After boiling two buckets, let the gas stove cool down for half an hour before continuing to boil water.
While waiting for the water to boil, the two didn't waste any time. They went back to their space to organize the thick clothes they would be wearing during this period: extreme cold down jackets, extreme cold windproof jackets, wool sweaters, thermal underwear, snow boots, wool socks, wool scarves, ski gloves, ski goggles...
Nanxing put the sweater into the closet, saying with relief, "Luckily, we bought more than one size of clothing. There's really nothing we can do if the clothes are too small."
If clothes or pants are too big, you can wear a belt or roll up the cuffs. If shoes are too big, you can wear two more pairs of socks or add insoles. There are many ways to solve this problem.
If it's too small, there's absolutely no way to fix it except to take it apart and redo it.
Banxia agreed. In her previous life, after her height shrank, she couldn't wear any of her clothes and shoes, and she spent a lot of points to have them altered. But she was already extremely lucky.
She'd even seen creatures that were 1.6 meters tall before evolution, but grew to 1.8 meters after. The clothes that were way too small looked bad on them, but the main problem was that they weren't warm at all.
If you expose your waist or legs in sub-zero temperatures, you'll probably freeze solid within half an hour of stepping outside.
The next morning, Banxia was awakened by the screams of the Devouring Tree.
She snuggled closer to Nanxing with her eyes closed, and asked the Devouring Tree in her mind, "Tiantian, what happened?"
The Devouring Tree shouted happily, "The black mist has dissipated!"
It almost suffocated this week. No matter how much it mutates, it is still essentially a tree that loves sunshine and rain!
Banxia immediately snapped out of her daze: "It's over?"
Has the black fog dissipated?
Today is the 8th, no wonder!
If she remembered correctly, the black fog was followed by extreme cold!
She threw back the covers, got out of bed, and went to the window to check the alcohol thermometer she had left there the night before: -13°C.
Fortunately, she bought an alcohol thermometer, which can measure temperatures from -100℃ to 50℃; otherwise, a regular thermometer would not be able to measure this temperature at all.
She heard from Nanxing that the lowest outdoor temperature during the first major temperature drop was -45℃, and it seemed that the temperature would continue to drop.
However, the temperature is quite unbearable now. Yesterday morning it was 5℃, but it dropped 18℃ overnight. I'm afraid many unprepared people will fall asleep and never wake up again.
Banxia didn't know whether those who had fallen asleep were lucky or unlucky. Dying now meant they wouldn't have to endure all the disasters to come, but they could no longer see any hope.
She sighed casually, turned around and went back to bed. It was only seven o'clock, still a long way to go!
However, she couldn't continue sleeping after getting back into bed, because as soon as she nestled against Nanxing, he kissed her...
At 9:50 a.m., Banxia and Nanxing applied moisturizing cream, put on thermal underwear, ultra-cold down jackets, down pants, wool socks and snow boots, and put on cold-proof hats, cold-proof masks and ski gloves before going out hand in hand.
Actually, around 7 o'clock, Su Yao couldn't wait to make a video call to Nan Xing and ask the two of them to go shopping.
Shopping was secondary; he mainly wanted to go out and feel the vibrancy of the place. These seven days and seven nights of darkness had really driven him crazy!
Nanxing didn't really want to talk to him. It's not like he doesn't have a wife. Why is he getting up so early?
However, Su Yao was too persistent. He made several video calls in a row, and after some back and forth, they agreed to go out at ten o'clock.
