Then she heard a series of loud cheers.
"The rain has stopped! The rain has finally stopped!"
"We're saved!"
"Waaaaah, if only this rain had stopped sooner, my husband wouldn't have died!"
"Those bad guys are going to get their comeuppance!"
"I can finally go home! Waaaaah~"
People leaned out of the windows, eagerly reaching out their hands, wanting to feel if the rain had really stopped.
Lin Ruo looked at these people. She understood them because she had been one of them before.
Unfortunately, she was disappointed in the past, and they were destined to be disappointed as well.
Only those who have been oppressed would be so happy. Those who broke the rules and hurt others during this time should be worried now, worried that if they really return to normal life, they will have to continue to be bound by the rules.
Lin Ruo took Afu and Ashou home. After they got home, the rainwater on them had mostly dried. Energy rain is not real rainwater, but a kind of energy, so Lin Ruo did not urge Afu and Ashou to take a bath.
She didn't even wipe it off herself; these remaining energy rains were all good things, and she wanted to continue cultivating while she had the chance.
Meanwhile, Afu and Ashou had been playing for more than half an hour and had exhausted their limited energy. They were also soaked by the energy rain and needed to digest it. Soon they started to yawn and wanted to sleep.
"Wait a minute! Eat something before you sleep. Who knows how long you'll sleep if you keep sleeping like this."
Lin Ruo specially prepared a whole sheep for them, cut it in half, and let them eat more.
Ah Fu and Ah Shou each only ate half before getting too sleepy. Ah Shou's head was practically buried in the bowl. Lin Ruo woke him up and told him to go to the bedroom for a good night's sleep.
Afu and Ashou lay in the bedroom, nuzzled against Lin Ruo, closed their eyes and immediately fell asleep. Lin Ruo looked at their bulging bellies and felt satisfied. When mutated animals mutate, it is essential to ensure they have enough food so that the mutation can be perfect.
Seeing their enormous bodies, each over two meters long, lying together and sleeping peacefully, Lin Ruo smiled. After this, their growth rate would be even more astonishing.
She looked at the people outside, weeping with joy and cheering. With the addition of these mutated animals, she wondered how many more people would be able to continue living.
"Look! The water level has dropped again!"
Lin Ruo sat by the window, and upon hearing the exclamations outside, calmly turned a page of her e-book.
The torrential rain stopped, and the persistently high water level began to slowly recede. In just one night, the water level dropped from the fifteenth floor to the middle of the eleventh floor, a rapid decrease of nearly 10 meters.
Everyone was even happier now. At this rate, the floodwater would disappear completely in less than three days, and then everything would return to normal.
Many people also migrated from other, lower-lying neighborhoods to Longyuan for refuge. Seeing how much the water level had dropped overnight, they were eager to return home and jumped into the water to swim back.
Lin Ruo sat by the window, reading a book while watching people jump into the water and swim away, feeling completely at peace.
There's still a day and a half until the extreme cold arrives; hopefully, these people won't be disappointed when they get home.
Lin Ruo's way of passing the time was very boring. She spent her time reading and cultivating. She had not yet fully digested the rapidly increasing energy in her body, but she could clearly feel the improvement in her superpowers.
“Energy rain is indeed a good thing,” Lin Ruo thought of the energy rain collected in the space, blinked, “Forget it, I’ll give it to Afu and Ashou. My ability is already level 6. Even if I absorb all of this energy rain, I might not be able to level up. It’s better to give it a good foundation.”
Another day has passed, and the water level has dropped to the middle of the fourth floor. Fewer and fewer people are in the entire Dragon Garden, and many have already left and returned to their homes.
Even Zhao Hui came to Li Wei and Lin Ruo to discuss it; he was somewhat worried.
After all, he had a lot of blood on his hands since the apocalypse, and if things really went back to the previous social situation, he would be in danger.
Lin Ruo didn't participate, nor did she care about Li Wei and Zhao Hui's plans. They were just passersby in her life, not worth paying attention to.
Afu and Ashou didn't wake up even once during the day and a half. Lin Ruo didn't force them to eat, but let them complete the mutation process in peace.
Lin Ruo looked at the bright sunshine outside. It was noon, and the extreme cold would arrive in 12 hours.
She took out a down jacket, windbreaker, thermal underwear, cashmere sweater and pants, down pants, down hat, face mask, and matching gloves from her space in advance. She also took out a pair of polar cold-weather boots, and her outfit for going out was ready.
She continued to rummage through her space, finding a down comforter, an electric blanket, an electric heater, and a charcoal stove to use that night. Although she had a water-based ability that allowed her to regulate her own temperature and wasn't afraid of extremely cold weather, she was also worried that her water-based ability would be interrupted during her deep sleep, and then she would really be doomed.
Therefore, she takes all the necessary precautions to keep warm while sleeping at night.
Having prepared all these things, Lin Ruo focused solely on the traditional Chinese medicine book in her hand. The book described how to make mosquito and fly repellent powder. This medicine was simpler to make than insect repellent powder, but Lin Ruo did not yet have the necessary medicinal materials.
She has already planted some in the black soil, and is just waiting for them to mature so she can start making them.
For dinner, she took out a serving of stuffed clams, a serving of lamb chops, a few large white steamed buns, and a winter melon and pork rib soup from her storage space.
To make her meal more enjoyable, she even found a zombie movie, took out a projector, and projected it onto the wall.
