Chapter 300 I Can’t Laugh
After Ji Yanmo collected the water from the reservoir, he came to find Lu Xingtang. Seeing that Lu Xingtang had not yet filled the reservoir, he said to Lu Xingtang: "Tangtang, I will clear the nearby roads and divert the water from nearby to the reservoir. Maybe we can collect a lot of water into the space."
"Be careful!" Lu Xingtang also thought that this method was feasible. They could also store a lot of water and fill the space reservoir.
After Ji Yanmo told Lu Xingtang to be careful, he went to divert water nearby.
Lu Xingtang only breathed a sigh of relief after all the water in the reservoir was transferred to the reservoir she dug in the space. At least after the extreme heat came, their base had a certain amount of water resources, and the survivors would not die of dehydration due to lack of water.
Seeing that Ji Yanmo had not returned yet, Lu Xingtang put away the water pump and pipes, cleared the puddles near the reservoir, and allowed the water to flow into the reservoir more violently. No matter what big rocks, branches, soil, etc. he saw, he put them into the space to prevent them from blocking the flow of rainwater.
After Lu Xingtang cleared some small ditches washed out by rainwater, he heard a splashing sound. He turned around and saw muddy rainwater rushing towards the reservoir. The water was so strong that it washed away all the debris on the road and some of it rushed into the reservoir.
After a while, Ji Yanmo came back. The moment he saw Ji Yanmo coming back, Lu Xingtang walked towards him and said, "The water is very high. Let's go to other places to collect supplies!"
Ji Yanmo held Lu Xingtang back and said, "Don't worry, we have enough supplies." Ji Yanmo told the truth. Lu Xingtang always felt that it was not enough. There were more and more people in the base, and more people were using the supplies. He always wanted to collect more supplies into the space. Only in this way could they live more safely in the end times, at least they would have everything they needed.
Lu Xingtang thought for a while and said, "Then let's go into the space and talk!" The two returned to the space and took a shower respectively. Ji Yanmo's consciousness was busy in the kitchen, and soon a table of delicious food was ready. When the two came out of the shower, they feasted on it.
After eating and drinking their fill and their bodies warmed up a little, Ji Yanmo put on his raincoat again and left the space to check the situation near the reservoir to see if there were any ditches blocked by debris. He used his supernatural powers to search and actually found some. He immediately used his supernatural powers to collect the debris into the space. After ensuring that the rainwater flowed into the reservoir, Ji Yanmo returned to the space again.
After returning to the space, Ji Yanmo simply washed up and went to sleep with Lu Xingtang in his arms, but their consciousness was constantly busy in the space. The vegetables, grains and medicinal herbs grown in the black soil were increasing. Even if the two of them used their consciousness to work, it would take some time to finish.
After their bodies were no longer so exhausted, they returned to the black soil and began mechanized planting and harvesting...
The next morning, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo left the space and returned to the reservoir. After a night, and with Ji Yanmo coming out from time to time to clean up the debris near the reservoir, the reservoir had accumulated a lot of water. Lu Xingtang immediately collected the water in the reservoir into the reservoir dug in the space.
After the interspatial reservoir was full, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo went to another reservoir, which also held a large amount of water, and collected it into the interspatial space. Then, they collected large rocks, soil, and broken branches, carefully guarding against landslides and mudslides, and returned to the base.
Before returning to the base, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo quietly collected all the debris outside the base into the space, and the water flow speed also increased a lot.
Su Cheng and the others were relieved to see Ji Yanmo and Lu Xingtang return. They reported on their work that day. "Since we have experience digging reservoirs and have an excavator to help us dig the pit, I also found the people who built the underground city. We are working together and have dug out three reservoirs and five ponds. Two of the ponds are now receiving water!"
Lu Xingtang also said: "We have also stored a lot of water. If we really run out of water, the water we have stored can allow our base to survive for a while longer."
Everyone was relieved. Then, the entire Chengguan District was filled with small reservoirs and ponds. Under the baptism of heavy rain, the reservoirs and ponds were all filled.
In a blink of an eye, heavy rain lasted for a month. The research team said that the heavy rain would stop in a month. During this month, the base was wet inside and outside, and many people fell while walking. The road was too slippery. Most of the ground was mud. Mud would become wet once it touched water, and it was easy to fall if you were not careful.
Later, Lu Xingtang learned that several expectant mothers in their base went to the points exchange office to exchange supplies, but accidentally fell and lost the babies in their bellies. Because they were caught in the rain and caught a cold and fever, they were unable to take care of themselves after giving birth.
Lu Xingtang immediately sent them some milk and goat's milk, which were squeezed out by the cows and sheep on the farm and were very fresh. She also gave them a bag of brown sugar and told them to take good care of themselves so that they could continue to have children in the future if they wanted to. Before the confinement period was over, she would send people to deliver milk and goat's milk to nourish their bodies!
At the same time, there were many others who were injured in the rainstorm. They were all treated equally and given goat milk, cow milk and a bag of brown sugar. The amount was not much, but it was all for comfort. Those who were not injured were given three days of meal tickets so that they could enjoy a feast in the base canteen.
"The rain has subsided! Look, the rain curtain isn't as heavy as before, and the raindrops are much smaller!"
"The rain has really subsided. That's great! I'm almost getting moldy from all the heavy rain this month. I can't even wash my clothes. I washed them not long after the heavy rain, and they're still not dry and stink!"
"I stink too..."
"Hopefully the sun will come out tomorrow and dry out our mold and give us some fresh air!"
Ten minutes later, the heavy rain turned into light rain. After another ten minutes, the light rain stopped, but the air was still humid and the ground was wet. However, everyone was in a very good mood.
The sun came out the next morning, and after it came out, it quickly dried away the moisture. Everyone in the base started washing clothes, washing cups, and cleaning the house. Lu Xingtang did not stop them. They still had water and could use it freely.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Lu Xingtang asked people to open all the tempered glass. The temperature rose. The temperature inside the tempered glass was even higher than outside. It was very stuffy and the damp air could not dissipate, making people very uncomfortable.
Without the humidity, the ground of the base quickly dried up. Lu Xingtang looked at the smiling faces, but she couldn't smile anymore. What if the extreme heat really came?
Lu Xingtang immediately ordered the hospital and medical research department to stock up on large quantities of medicines to prevent heatstroke, heatstroke, heat-related colds, plague, and viruses. Medicinal herb planting areas also began to plant large quantities of heat-clearing and detoxifying herbs such as honeysuckle and chrysanthemum, as well as mung beans. "It's a pity that there's not much saltpeter left, otherwise we could stock up on edible ice!"
But you can think of other ways, such as stocking up on inedible ice cubes to cool down.
