The rain stopped on the first day of the extreme cold, followed by a sharp drop in temperature.

It reached the lowest temperature in winter here overnight. Hua Jin tried it at minus 25 degrees. In this temperature, as long as you wear more clothes, you can still survive wearing cotton clothes.

It wasn't impossible to get out, but it was really cold.

Fortunately, it is warm enough in the cave, and the family has been paying attention to the problem of temperature drops. As early as after the first freeze, two layers of thick quilts were placed in each tent, so that even if you feel the cold when you fall asleep at night, you will be able to feel it for the first time. Shi Shi casually pulled the quilt to his body to keep warm.

The temperature is dropping day by day. It is estimated that before the extremely cold day is about to arrive, Hua Laohan has already reminded the women in the village to make more warm and thick winter clothes and bedding, increase the number of hours they go out to cut firewood every day, and stock up as much wood as possible.

Fortunately, everyone is accustomed to listening to the village chief's words, and they firmly believe that the temperature is indeed getting lower and lower. They rush to make winter clothes, add cotton to the old bedding, or make a few new ones.

The same is true for firewood. It took two hours to cut firewood every day instead of four hours a day. Except for coming back for a meal, the men spent almost a day outside cutting trees and accumulating firewood.

Cotton was harvested before the heavy rains. It was the last harvest of the year. Each household planted a certain amount of land according to the wishes of the village chief. Each household planted a few acres of wasteland behind the village, of which one or two acres were used to grow cotton. .

It was also at this time that everyone in Huajia Village realized how wise their village chief was, how forward-looking he was, and how vicious his vision was.

It is precisely because of the village chief that they can now live like individuals. Although they are trapped in the mountains and do not know what the outside world is like, it is not that the old people in the village have not experienced great disasters, not to mention the great disasters and disasters at that time. Now it is impossible to say the same thing at all. Everyone knows in their hearts that their lives were saved by the village chief in a real sense.

So no matter what the village chief asked them to do, the villagers almost didn't hesitate and just did it.

Then when the extreme cold came, everyone realized how well-intentioned the village chief was. On the second day when he woke up covered with a warm quilt, even if the temperature outside was extremely cold, almost every family had someone ready. What they thought was the best gift was to go to the village chief in the whistling cold wind to express their gratitude.

Just when everyone thought it couldn't get any colder no matter how cold it was, who knew that the temperature dropped again overnight, a drop that was almost life-threatening.

There is no need to go out basically. The wind is so cold, especially in the mountains, that it is hard to open your eyes. Who dares to make fun of their own life?

Then a special cat winter began for the people of Huajia Village.

Fortunately, the temperature inside the cave is much higher than outside, plus the charcoal accumulated last year and the wood cut recently, I don't feel bad as long as I don't go out, but the door of the cave cannot be closed easily.

Although each carbon disk is brought into the cave after it has been burned as much as possible outside and there is no more smoke, we cannot bear the large number of people in the cave. Even if the cave is large enough, there will still be the smell of charcoal. For the sake of safety, the door of the cave is Basically it cannot be shut down.

For this reason, the big guy also specially transported a huge boulder from the mountain and fixed it right in front of the cave entrance in order to block some of the cold wind as much as possible.

However, on the third day, the temperature continues to drop. When you go out and expose any part of your body, you will instantly feel stiff, as if it is not a part of your body.

I quickly took a test and found that it had reached more than 40 degrees below zero. This temperature has indeed reached the extreme limit of the human body. Without an adaptation stage, it is easy to have an accident.

That is to say, they are located in the north and have good cold tolerance. Hua Jin actually can't imagine how people in the south can survive this extremely cold weather.

Hua Jin knew that this was not over yet, the temperature would still drop precipitously, until it would reach more than 70 degrees below zero.

Sure enough, the temperature dropped by a few degrees on the fourth day, then on the fifth, sixth, and until the seventh day the temperature reached more than minus 60 degrees.The first thing Huajin did when she got up on the eighth day was to check the outdoor thermometer, but before that she wrapped herself into a ball and wrapped the down jacket in the space into a cotton coat.

Fortunately, I have finally grown a lot in the past two years, otherwise it would be really difficult to put on the clothes in the space. Of course, grandma and mother's clothes are also indispensable. Fortunately, she has not too many winter clothes, and she has some specially hoarded ones.

She added a layer of down jacket and then put on cotton clothes, wearing a rabbit fur hat that her mother made for her, and a warm rabbit fur scarf. Even so, when you opened the door, you were still stiffened by the biting and cold temperature outside. , and immediately felt a chill slowly penetrate through the clothes, penetrating through any gaps on the body, there was only one feeling of biting cold, too cold.

He quickly brought in the thermometer that was outside with his hand wearing rabbit fur gloves, and quickly closed the door before feeling like he was finally alive again.

I really can’t imagine how wild animals survive in the extremely cold places of Antarctica and the Arctic.

"Sister, what's the temperature?" Brother Hua and Brother Hua, who came out with Hua Jin, stretched their necks to look at the novelty that their sister had brought out. Although they were scratching their heads and curious, the two brothers, even if they were Hua Jin, looked at the thermometer. The second brother still tacitly buried his curiosity in his heart. As long as his sister didn't tell him, they wouldn't ask. Especially in the winter, fresh fruits appeared at home every now and then. This was hard to explain.

"Minus 66 degrees" meant that she was mentally prepared. Hua Jin couldn't help but take a breath. This temperature really didn't make people want to live.

"Hiss" Brother Hua took two breaths to express his shock.

"God will let this thief live!" Brother Hua couldn't help but started to curse, but Hua Yun'ao covered him up.

Although he wanted to scold him in his heart, God is so easy to scold, so he still had to have a sense of awe.

"Don't talk nonsense" and pulled his brother back into the cave.

Although the space outside is sealed and has a door, there is still a big gap between it and the cave. There is a temperature difference of thirty to forty degrees!
I used to wonder why my father and I built another stone house for livestock under the rock, but now I understand, not only that, but charcoal is still burning in the shed every day.

"Has the temperature dropped again?" Old Man Hua asked eagerly as soon as the three children came in.

"Yeah, it's ten degrees lower again."

"Hiss, hiss..." A few more people gasped.

"Oh, it's still falling. Is it true that there is no way for people to survive?"

It's better to be prepared in advance while living in a cave, but the ending may be disastrous if you live outside.

It's over 60 degrees below zero without enough clothing to keep out the cold and firewood that can keep the temperature high. How many people can survive?

In fact, Old Man Hua was right, but he underestimated human beings' potential and ability to adapt to the environment. On the first and second days of the extreme cold, a group of extremely weak people were eliminated, but by the third and third days, From April to the eight days when the temperature dropped, even if they couldn't find a cave and set up tents with bunkers, many of them only relied on fires to keep warm. They were still alive and developing their greatest potential and working hard to adapt to the environment.
