Infinite Disaster Survival
Chapter 123 Chapter 123 (1/2)
It was so hot and stuffy around me that I could not stop sweating from my forehead and into my neck. My clothes were not made of breathable material, but long sleeves and long pants. The sweat on my back was like a rain shower, sticking my back and clothes together.
"There was a power outage in the middle of the day. Look at the temperature today. How can people rest!"
"I just called the power supply bureau. Our area has not stopped supplying electricity. Only the residential buildings in our community have no electricity. You property management must give an explanation today."
Many people were questioning loudly. Wen Zheng had just entered the new world when he found himself facing a crowd of angry people. The blocking action was a little slow. A force came from his chest. This body was so tired and weak that he could not resist it. Wen Zheng fell backwards.
"Hey, hey, hey, someone fainted, stop arguing."
"Could it be heat stroke?"
"Hurry up and help Old Wen to the chair, I'll call the clinic next door." The employee in charge at this time finished the call, and took advantage of the opportunity when the residents dared not to argue anymore, and quickly explained, "We have tried our best to take the electrician to check the situation, and will be back soon. Please wait for a while and let the doctor come in to treat the person."
Wen Zheng felt dizzy when he was pushed, and the strength slowly eased after falling to the ground. He simply hurried to see the situation of this world and accept the memory of the original body.

Note, please explore the hidden tasks by yourself. After reaching the survival time, the player can choose to leave the copy at any time.
After the clinic received the call, the doctor came with things and examined Wen Zheng. It was confirmed that it was a mild case of heatstroke. Because he was pushed by someone at the time, his head may have hit the ground and fainted. His clinic is also in the community. The power outage is not suitable for patients with heatstroke to rest. It is better to send him to the hospital.
The property manager who received the news came back on an electric car. He happened to hear the doctor's words and suddenly his eyes went dark. He hoped that nothing would happen to Wen Zheng and quickly found a car to send Wen Zheng to the hospital. Wen Zheng was lifted into the car by several people. The manager had no time to run to the car. As soon as one foot stepped into the car, he was stopped by the owners and could only let his employees take Wen Zheng there.
When it's hot, everyone is hot together.
"The Central Meteorological Observatory issued a yellow high temperature warning. It is expected that during the day on May 18, the highest temperature in Anjiang, Chongnan... and other areas will reach 35℃, among which..." In the hospital where the power supply is maintained, the TV hanging on the wall is playing the noon news, focusing on the abnormal temperature since May.
Several people in the emergency room had symptoms of heat stroke and were resting on the bench. Wen Zheng had suffered a blow to the back of his head, so a bed was arranged for him for the time being.
Wen Zheng woke up again and felt the cool air brought by the air conditioner in the hospital. He felt so comfortable. He opened his eyes and looked at the young man sitting next to him. The other party was happily playing with his mobile phone. He looked over when he heard Wen Zheng getting up. Wen Zheng said that his physical condition was much better. After another examination by the doctor, he could leave after the infusion was over.
The young man was relieved after hearing this: "Uncle Wen, it's great that you are okay. We were scared at the time. I will tell the manager quickly."
To put it bluntly, if Wen Zheng really had an accident at the door of the property, the surveillance camera that was out of power would not work. The responsibility for this incident would definitely fall on their property, and their wages would definitely be affected.
The young man was relieved for this month's salary.
Wen Zheng got off the bed and moved himself and the infusion bottle to the recliner next to him, leaving the bed for those who needed it more. After looking at the time displayed on the TV, he quickly took out the spare mobile phone from his pocket and found a phone number to dial: "Teacher Li? I'm Wen Ling's father..."
This time, Wen Zheng and Tuantuan entered the world as a team. The two could not stay in the same place because Wen Ling was still a student and of course studied in school on weekdays.
Wen Zheng learned from the memory of his original body that Tuantuan usually stayed in school to eat lunch and went home at night. But now that his body has changed its core, with Tuantuan's personality, he can only endure those childish things for two hours at most. This is because he knew that Wen Zheng would definitely come to pick him up. Now that he has not waited for a long time, he should be anxious.
This call to the head teacher was very timely. Tuantuan heard the teacher say that Wen Zheng was in the hospital now. After asking which hospital it was, he ran out of the school gate without taking anything. The teacher was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly chased after him, but still failed to catch up. He stood at the gate and watched Tuantuan get into a taxi.
In case something went wrong, the head teacher immediately asked other teachers to look after the students temporarily, and took a taxi to the hospital. The journey didn't take too long, and before the head teacher entered the emergency room, he heard Tuantuan's voice: "My dad fainted at the gate of the community. Although the weather is hot, my dad usually stands guard indoors. He can't stay in the house with a fan on and get heatstroke, right? Uncle, is there anything else you haven't told me?"
Tuantuan arrived just after the property manager who had solved the problem in the community. After hearing the manager's condolences to Wen Zheng, he wanted to take a day off and reimburse the medical expenses. Before Wen Zheng could speak, Tuantuan immediately became anxious. This time he asked to enter the mission world with Wen Zheng, just to protect Wen Zheng, so he rushed in and stood in front of Wen Zheng to question him.
The temperature outside is too high. If people stay out for too long, it is estimated that several more patients with heatstroke will be sent in soon. Tuantuan didn't speak loudly, and there were no particularly critical patients in the emergency room. The doctors and nurses ignored them for the time being. The other patients silently moved their eyes and looked at the gossip.
Tuantuan burst out with a temperament that was completely inconsistent with his appearance and age. The property manager also felt a little guilty. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and was speechless.
Wen Zheng accepted all the memories during the period of sleep.
The original mother and her son used to depend on each other in the countryside, usually relying on farming to make a living. Later, the son tried his best to get into the best junior high school in the city. He couldn't worry about his son, and because the income from farming was getting lower year by year, he came to this country. In the city, I found a job near the school to accompany me while I was studying.
The last job I found was to work as a doorman in this newly built community. The salary was not high, but the work was not tiring, and they were given a small room big enough for the two of them.
This city is not in an area with particularly high temperatures. In previous years, the highest temperature in midsummer would reach 35 degrees. Who would have thought that this year's temperature would be so weird. In mid-May, the temperature has already reached the highest temperature in previous years. .
When the temperature becomes unbearable, everyone will naturally turn on the air conditioner. As a result, too many residents turn on the air conditioner at the same time. The power supply equipment used in the community cannot support it. The transformer is damaged and the power supply to the entire community is stopped. The same was true for the guard room where Wen Zheng was located. There was a sudden power outage in the hot weather, and the residents were naturally unhappy. They couldn't get a satisfactory answer after calling them, so they went to the property office to ask questions in person.
When the residents got excited, their voices became louder, and more and more people came. The guard room was not far from the property office. Wen Zheng and the other two guard guards received a message from the office, asking them to go over and help control the situation.
The office was basked in the sun like a heater, and the crowds made the indoor temperature rise again. Residents and employees in the office were able to wear cool summer clothes. Only the doormen were required to wear long-sleeved and long-trousers uniforms due to the dress code. The fabric was still made of a material that was not very breathable. Various factors caused the original body to fall into a state of heatstroke and fainted to the ground after being pushed.
So after careful calculation, the original owner's heatstroke problem was mostly caused by the property management company.
The property manager had known the whole situation for a long time. He originally wanted to see Wen Zheng be honest, so he came over to see and deal with Wen Zheng. Who knew that this child of the Wen family was a difficult person to deal with. Finally, he prevaricated: "You... What does a kid know? Come aside and I’ll talk to your dad.”
"Sir, I am Wen Ling's class teacher. I sent him to the hospital because I was worried. Mr. Wen will inevitably feel unwell after a heatstroke. Since I am here, I still have to pay attention to the situation of the child's parents. Why don't you tell me about it? What happened?"
The head teacher walked in from the door. She remembered that every time Wen Ling's father came to a parent-teacher meeting, he was very concerned about the child, but he was a bit arrogant. Wen Ling is the student with the best grades in the class, and she is usually well-behaved and does not cause trouble. Now that she has encountered this incident today, as a teacher, she cannot just watch her students suffer.
Teacher Li is worthy of being a Chinese teacher who teaches and educates people. He is articulate and logical. Not only does he not let the other party get around him, he also seizes the key points and keeps asking questions, which is bound to make the situation clear. After asking everything clearly, Teacher Li took out the relevant regulations that he quickly searched on his mobile phone and successfully got Wen Zheng the treatment he deserved.
The property manager had just humbly apologized to the owner, but now the teacher had disrupted his original plan and had to agree to transfer Wen Zheng a compensation that was several times more than expected. Without saying another word, he left angrily.
The young man who accompanied Wen Zheng to the hospital followed and left. Before leaving, he shook his head and left a message to Wen Zheng: "If you don't give the manager face like this, do you still want to stay and work in the future? Why let your child mess around?" ”
The person he was talking about was the child, but the person he was looking at was Teacher Li. It was clear that Teacher Li didn't dare to get involved.
"I don't think my child is messing around." Wen Zheng, who had not spoken since the quarrel, spoke. The young man's footsteps stopped, and the teacher's rising displeasure was taken away. "I'm not very good at talking. Xiaoling said exactly what I wanted to say.”
Hearing Wen Zheng mentioning himself, Tuantuan stood up from Wen Zheng's side and added what the manager didn't say.
"The highest temperature yesterday was 30 degrees, and the manager also asked my dad to wear a spring uniform. The community is not full yet, and there are many people who are not at home. With such a number of people turning on the air conditioner, the transformer breaks down. It shows that there was a problem with the initial design. Whether it was a miscalculation or a reluctance to spend money, the conclusion is that the property itself is unreliable. Even if there is no power outage today, other problems will arise in the future.
If you want to do this kind of job, just keep doing it. Next time you encounter a problem, don't fight for the treatment you deserve. See if the manager will give you a salary increase. "
The patients who heard Tuantuan's words nodded in agreement, and some even laughed out loud at the end, causing the young man's face to turn red and his voice to rise a lot: "Are you cursing me?"
"No loud noises are allowed in the hospital." The volume of this sentence was indeed beyond the normal range, and the doctor next to him reminded him.
The young man's words were stuck in his throat before he finished speaking. He felt that the people around him were laughing at him. He glared at Wen Zheng and Tuantuan and left with an unhappy face.
Teacher Li heard from Wen Zheng and Wen Ling's words that they didn't think he was meddling in their affairs, and his mood immediately improved a lot. The matter was resolved and it took quite some time to come out. Teacher Li spoke as expected: "Mr. Wen, I just happened to be going back to school, so I took Wen Ling back with me. I can still attend the last two classes in the afternoon. The high school entrance examination is coming soon, and the child's study is more important. Even if Wen Ling has good grades, he can't relax at this time."
It was because Wen Zheng suddenly called and said that he was in the hospital and needed Wen Ling to see him. Teacher Li thought Wen Zheng had a serious illness. When he saw Wen Ling enter the hospital, he followed him to the emergency room worriedly.
Later, he learned that he hoped that the smart child could come to help fight against the unscrupulous boss. Teacher Li still felt that he should not disturb the child at this critical moment of the high school entrance examination.
Wen Ling, who was sitting leisurely next to him, immediately froze. When the teacher was too responsible, such a scene would occur. He quickly blinked at Wen Zheng a few more times in a place where others could not see, believing that his father would understand what he meant.
Even if Tuantuan didn't ask him, Wen Zheng wouldn't let Tuantuan go back to school to attend classes, otherwise he didn't know what kind of trouble would be caused. His Tuantuan would not stay in school and listen carefully.
But facing Teacher Li who had just helped, he rubbed his temples with a headache. He really couldn't find any suitable reason to persuade the teacher to leave. He always felt that he would be sorry for this serious and responsible teacher.
"Dad, are you still not feeling well?" Tuantuan seemed particularly smart at this time, and immediately looked at Teacher Li with worried eyes, "Teacher, I knocked my head on the ground when I fainted. I was really worried and wanted to accompany him, so I asked you for leave. You go back first."
This father and son really have no other relatives. Teacher Li was worried that saying more would poke their pain. Finally, he whispered to Wen Ling that he must go to school tomorrow and let him review well at home. Tuantuan nodded perfunctorily. If he could not go back to school today, he could naturally do it tomorrow.
The emergency room was quiet again. The patients sitting next to him chatted with Wen Zheng and his friends. Their impression of the Wen family father and son increased, while their impression of the property company decreased. Someone left a business card for Wen Zheng: "Brother, if you can't work in this property company anymore, call me and I'll introduce you to a better one."
"I left my phone number. Thank you in advance." Wen Zheng accepted the other party's kindness and carefully put the business card behind the phone case and clipped it.
At this time, Wen Zheng's infusion was over. He asked Tuantuan to contact a taxi with his mobile phone in advance. When the taxi arrived, he said goodbye to everyone and took Tuantuan out to take the taxi. Just from the short distance from the hospital to the taxi, he could feel the extremely high temperature outside. Even the air seemed to become thick under the high temperature.
The two naturally would not choose to go back to the community. The property staff group had not kicked Wen Zheng out yet. It said that the suitable transformer needed to be purchased from the province, and it would take until tomorrow to deliver it urgently. What's more, the property company had not yet planned to pay the expedited fee. Staying in the community without electricity was completely a torture.
After the two of them got in the car, they asked the driver to take them to a medium-sized hotel. The car stopped for a while on the way, and Tuantuan went down to help Wen Zheng buy a set of daily clothes suitable for the current temperature. When he entered the hotel room, Wen Zheng changed out of the guard uniform.
After taking a good bath in the hotel, the temperature had dropped a little, and then he went to the nearest restaurant for dinner. As night fell, there was a breeze outside, and the father and son simply went to the nearby river.
Street lights of various colors lit up on both sides of the river and the bridge, which was quite beautiful. The river passing through the city has always been built into a landscape. Next to the river is a specially built running track suitable for walking, and lively parks have been built on the opposite sides.
On one side is a small amusement park, which is usually visited by young people, and on the other side, it was previously occupied by aunts and uncles who love square dancing. In the past, these two parks were full of people at night, but the temperature has been too high these days, and there are obviously fewer people coming.
Wen Zheng walked with Tuan Tuan by the river, discussing their plans as they walked
When he saw that this was an intermediate task, Wen Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. The last advanced task was too tiring, and he hoped to take a break this time. When he saw the content of the task below, he knew that this was a natural disaster, not one of those weird disasters that could not be prepared for.
Rising temperatures, river droughts, and reduced grain production, Wen Zheng could imagine the impact that human life would suffer, and naturally understood what kind of preparations should be made. Natural disasters can greatly reduce the difficulty as long as they can be predicted in advance. If the task time was not three years, Wen Zheng estimated that the difficulty would only be considered a primary task.
"Just like in the Don't Starve world, let's find a place with more water and store more supplies in advance." Wen Zheng smiled and touched Tuan Tuan's head, "You can only transform into a human form in the Don't Starve world. You were still a fat baby at that time, but now you have grown so tall."
Tuan Tuan raised his head and rubbed it in Wen Zheng's palm, raised his cute smile and said: "No matter how tall I grow, I am my father's child."
Wen Zheng had to admit that he was a little touched by Tuan Tuan. He couldn't help but move his hand on Tuan Tuan's head to Tuan Tuan's face and rubbed it a few times. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that he was so lucky.
