Chapter 53 The Life of Lying Down



Upon hearing this, Xia He exclaimed, "Wow, it can prolong life!" Xia He had always felt that dogs had too short a lifespan, and the thought that her two little ones would only live for a maximum of 20 years made her sad. Now that she heard that it could prolong life, Xia He immediately prepared a cup for each of her two little ones and drank one herself.

Then he dragged the two little ones and himself into the bathroom, waiting for the stench on his body to dissipate.

About 20 minutes later, Xia He began to secrete a black liquid. This time, the smell was not as abstract as the first time, but it was still an indescribable smell, much like throwing a can of herring into a latrine.

Xia He couldn't help but gag, then took out hot water and rinsed herself and the two little ones, then rubbed them together. After that, the two little ones went into the dryer to wait to dry.

Even after washing up, Xia He still felt an indescribable smell in her nasal cavity, so she took out an incense burner and lit it in her room.

Then, lying in bed, I looked at the frost outside the window. The temperature in this world was much lower than in the previous one, reaching minus 70 degrees Celsius. The temperature would warm up slightly during the day.

Looking out from inside, you can't see anything outside at all, because frost has already formed a protective shell on the windows, enveloping the house in ice. At this temperature, you don't even need to hit your head on the ground to kill someone; just lightly splash some water on the enemy, wait a few seconds, and it will quickly freeze into ice.

In this situation, if a person is frozen, they are basically doomed to die.

Of course, now only households with fuel still have water, because the water source has long been frozen, and you can only drink water by using a heat source to melt the ice. And you have to drink it very quickly, otherwise, the hot water will turn into ice in no time.

In her previous life, Xia He had no heat source and couldn't find anything to start a fire, so she chewed on ice cubes, which caused her mouth to freeze several times.

Ice is cold, and it's also very hard. Chewing it feels like chewing a knife. Once you put an ice cube in your mouth, you don't dare to open your mouth at all, because if you do, the water that has just melted will freeze again as soon as it comes into contact with the cold air, which is extremely painful.

However, Xia He doesn't have these worries now. Her fortress is very sturdy and has plenty of energy. At this moment, Xia He is lying on the kang (a heated brick bed) wearing only a thin bear-patterned pajama, without even wearing socks, and arrogantly crossing her legs.

At the same time, she remembered that official news seemed to be coming out soon, so she took out her satellite radio, tuned the channel, and then took out the toys she had scavenged in the wholesale market. Xia He had slept all day and now that the night was long, she couldn't sleep either, so she started examining the toys.

Xia He was holding a Lego set. The packaging showed it to be a small house, specifically a three-story dessert shop. She was assembling it while looking at the instructions.

Feeling a bit bored halfway through, she turned on a legendary palace drama. The screen showed the line, "Your Majesty, farewell! I'm tired, so I won't get up to see you off." This made Xia He laugh out loud. She would occasionally gesture for the two little ones to watch, but they didn't understand it either. However, they tried to remain calm and responded to Xia He.

For the next week, Xia He lived a life of leisure. After getting up in the morning, she would exercise with the two little ones for a while, then watch TV, read novels, play games, and fuss over the two little ones. The days were quite pleasant, but they became a bit boring after a while.

She would drink the elixir every night and then take a bath, which resulted in Xia He having a poor appetite for the entire week.

On the morning of the 7th day, a sound came from the radio, startling Xia He awake from her sleep.
