Chapter 84 Heavy Snow Seals the City



The little guy nestled in Zuo Ling's arms, found a comfortable sleeping position, and fell soundly asleep. After being hungry for several days, he felt sleepy as soon as he ate and soon started snoring softly.

Zuo Ling's consciousness probed into the space.

The first thing you see is a well next to the puddle.

The puddle is about 500 square meters in size, and the water is clear and transparent, so it should be able to support fish. The rest of the space is full of dead fish, so it's impossible to conduct experiments there.

The water in the well was as green as a gemstone, and it faintly emitted an alluring fragrance.

I couldn't wait to scoop up a cup and drink it all in one gulp.

Mmm~, it's like drinking runny jelly. One cup isn't enough, I drank three in a row.

My pores opened wide, a warm current surged through my body, and my meridians felt so comfortable I wanted to shout out.

Black impurities were faintly oozing from my arm. I sniffed; the stench was all too familiar.

Zuo Ling was overjoyed; this was the true meaning of cleansing the marrow and tendons.

Half an hour later, the warm sensation in my body gradually subsided.

When I opened my eyes, my body was covered with a layer of black, greasy substance that smelled terrible.

I rushed into the bathroom; thankfully, the water hadn't stopped.

Quickly cleanse your body, leaving you feeling light, energetic, and full of strength.

Consciousness probed into the space again, which expanded to 1,700 mu, with a land area of ​​20 mu.

The vegetables in the field were pulled up and not replanted, but the fruit tree seedlings sprouted new leaves, and their growth was neither good nor bad.

The lighting was the same as last time; it was impossible to tell if there had been any changes.

Locate the solar panel, plug it into the battery box, and after a while, the display shows that it is charging.

The ability to charge in space means that with the arrival of polar night, there's no need to use gasoline or diesel to charge. Zuo Ling excitedly spun around in circles.

The clock pillar shows a countdown: 13 days, 10 hours, 18 minutes, and 8 seconds.

Aside from the incident with the Jin family's Spider-Man, Zuo Ling had basically never entered the space, and she was very happy to have saved up 13 days of survival time.

The grassland has been expanded to 20 square meters, giving the 12 chickens more room to roam. After not coming for 5 days, the chickens are so hungry that they are tearing at the grass.

Quickly sprinkle some rice and chopped vegetable leaves into the feeding trough, and fill the water trough with water.

The chickens were so hungry and weak that they staggered over to eat and drink, and it took them a long time to recover.

Zuo Ling planted two bamboo trees on the edge of the land. The bamboo will grow into a large patch, and they will eventually form a forest.

After watering the fruit tree seedlings and bamboo, the consciousness withdrew from the space.

Looking out the window, the snow no longer seemed solid, but it hadn't decreased much either.

The trees on both sides of the street were mostly buried, making the road surface invisible.

There was a commotion in the hallway, but I couldn't hear what they were saying.

I opened my phone and saw many people in the neighborhood group complaining about the power outage during the Lunar New Year, saying things like, "Can't people have a holiday?"

After seven or eight exchanges, there was no further news; the internet connection was lost.

Put the waterfall back in its little home and cover it with a blanket.

Power and internet should be restored soon, but will be interrupted again shortly.

With several hours to go before dawn, Zuo Ling was wide awake.

After adding some coal to the fireplace, turn the fire down to a low flame and keep it warm.

She continued absorbing the crystals, not daring to fully immerse herself as she had in the previous days, leaving only a trace of consciousness to perceive the outside world.

Outside the window, the snow kept falling.

Inside the window, Zuo Ling focused intently on absorbing the energy from the crystal.

As the light and shadow shifted, dawn broke.

With a click, the room buzzed – the power was back on.

Everything was covered in snow; the entire Noah's Ark residential complex, from the third floor down, was completely blanketed in snow.

Someone was digging snow at the entrance of the building, someone was gesturing frantically and shouting something, and the sound of crying could be faintly heard.

It wasn't just one person crying; it was several people crying, otherwise the sound wouldn't have reached the 22nd floor.

Zuo Ling watched the various scenes below with an expressionless face. Knowing the outcome beforehand, she couldn't feel any sorrow.

The apocalypse has just begun; the days of tears are yet to come.

The waterfall nestled in its special little bed, fast asleep.

I expelled a lot of impurities from my body, so I went to the bathroom for a quick rinse and changed my clothes.

The fire in the stove was burning just right, and the thermometer showed 18 degrees Celsius.

The internet is down, so I can't check the weather forecast on my phone and don't know the temperature outside.

I put on a down vest and thin cashmere pants. The house can't be too hot; the extremely cold days are long, and I'll have to get used to it little by little.

Having not slept all night, Zuo Ling was full of energy and had no desire to sleep.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, a day for visiting relatives and friends.

According to custom, one cannot work or litter, but one can throw away shoes.

Shoes are associated with the word "evil," so they are believed to throw away all evil spirits and bad things, leaving behind wealth and good fortune.

With snow three stories high, forget about going out to throw away your shoes; the trash cans are nowhere to be found.

I found a pair of old shoes and threw them at the entrance of the building, as if I had gotten rid of the "evil spirits".

Take it with you when you go out.

Put on an apron and sleeves, and take out both electric and non-electric pressure cookers.

Working on the first day of the Lunar New Year means that you will be busy and hardworking for the rest of the year.

She foresaw the future and knew that even if she lay in bed without moving a single finger today, she would still be destined to a life of hardship and toil in the years to come.

The kitchen stove has four burners, so don't let any of them go to waste.

Five rice cookers and five electric pressure cookers were all used to cook cured meats.

Two wood-fired stoves, one for stewing pork bones, and the other for making braised dishes.

While everyone was busy cooking, Zuo Ling roasted pig's head, roasted pig's trotters, and scraped off pig hair.

There were two wood-fired stoves in the space, but she thought better of it. She was already busy with 16 pots, and any more would have exhausted her.

The air is thick with heat, creating two distinct indoor and outdoor temperatures.

Zuo Ling glanced out the window every now and then; downstairs, motorcycles roared, and two snowplows were at work.

The high property management fees were well paid off, as the property management responded quickly.

The snow was so heavy that the roads that the snowplows had just cleared were soon covered with a thick layer of snow again.
