Infinite Disaster Survival
Chapter 134 Chapter 134 (1/2)
This year, all schools had to start their summer vacation early. Even though the government has tried its best to provide schools with enough electricity, there are still many schools that have not installed air conditioners. There have been frequent incidents of students suffering from heat stroke and fainting, and some have even almost threatened the safety of children's lives.
No matter how important learning is, it is a topic that can only be discussed under the premise of children's safety.
The middle school entrance examination and the college entrance examination were announced to be held early in April when the country officially issued a high temperature warning. All examination rooms were arranged in classrooms with air conditioners. In a hurry, through the efforts of many people, the two exams were successfully carried out smoothly in early May.
The early examination disrupted the study plans of many people, and it may also be affected by the hot weather. The difficulty of these two important exam questions this year is lower than in previous years. The final scores announced are far lower than the previous level, but it is not surprising.
After the middle school entrance examination, the teacher who used to teach Tuantuan in the middle school finally had some free time and called Wen Zheng to ask about Tuantuan's current situation.
Tuantuan has been absent from school for nearly a year. The eye disease that was deliberately caused has already shown improvement. Wen Zheng no longer needs to find excuses for Tuantuan's absence. In the extremely hot weather, whether the school can start normally in the fall this year is still a question.
The teacher said that he could understand, but a long absence from school might affect Tuantuan's academic status. He reminded Wen Zheng as a parent to pay more attention and reminded Tuantuan not to forget to study at home.
As a result, many children's voices rang out on Wen Zheng's side. It took the teacher a lot of effort to hear them clearly. It turned out that after the holiday, these children in the village were entrusted to Wen Zheng by their parents to take care of them. They couldn't go out in broad daylight, so Tuantuan simply gave them lessons.
These students testified that with the knowledge Tuantuan showed during the lecture, he would not be stumped by any exam. Since Wen Zheng and Tuantuan returned to the village, the title of "other people's children" on Tuantuan has never been taken away by the villagers.
Tuan Tuan probably really found fun in teaching. He has not shown any boredom so far. Instead, he is quite active in learning the knowledge of this world. Although the forms of the disaster worlds they have visited are not far apart, there are still differences in some details. If he accidentally teaches wrong, it will harm these children.
The teenage teacher taught the class in a proper manner. A group of students who were not much younger than the teacher, and some were even a few years older, listened attentively. The basement, which was originally relatively cool, was also air-conditioned. One vertical air conditioner was enough for the entire basement. The excess electricity generated by solar energy was transported to the homes of other villagers who were in urgent need.
Because of these actions, the whole Dongxi Village only praised the Wen family father and son. If anyone dared to say bad things about them, the whole village would probably be unhappy.
In the underground classroom, Wen Zheng had not forgotten his image as a farmer who had worked hard for half his life. He did not participate in the teaching of his own children, but would sit next to the students and listen carefully. He took notes more carefully than other students, and in the end, he would be used as a template for the group of children to borrow.
When the course is over, Wen Zheng basically prepares some naturally cooled boiled water, and adds some mint juice to it for the children to drink. The cool feeling brought by mint makes people feel more comfortable. Now the weather is so hot that there is basically no appetite for lunch at noon. Cold noodles and cold skin are the most popular and easy to make.
These children eat at Wen Zheng's place at noon, and stay at home in the morning and evening. Of course, whether it is taking care of the children or cutting off the power supply, the villagers are deeply grateful for Wen Zheng's willingness, so they are determined not to let Wen Zheng suffer losses in this regard. Wen Zheng does not want money, but sends food from home, or delicious dishes, fresh food grown at home, etc.
In the past, the villagers in Dongxi Village inevitably had some conflicts, and some even did not want to communicate. Now, under the role of Wen Zheng, facing the severe situation of high temperature, the atmosphere of the whole village has improved unprecedentedly.
The biggest worry now is that there is not enough electricity.
When the news announced the installation of solar power generation equipment and related circuits nationwide, the residents in the village were looking forward to it day and night. Some of them thought about installing it themselves like Wen Zheng did, but when they called to ask, they found out that all the solar power generation equipment produced nowadays is purchased and arranged by the state, and the few stocks have all risen to unacceptable prices. After weighing the pros and cons, the villagers would rather wait a few more days.
The adults were talking about it in their hearts, and the children were also thinking about it.
Finally, when the temperature dropped a few degrees, Wen Zheng took the children to the mountain behind them for a few laps when the sun was about to set in the afternoon. Although the trees on the mountain were a little listless, there was still enough water in the mountain for them to absorb. Not only did they not wither too much, but some of them even produced some wild fruits.
The children who grew up in the village often went to the mountains, and they knew what was edible and what was not.
Most plants could not stand the current high temperature, and the fresh fruits and vegetables that could be accessed in the village were particularly scarce, so the wild fruits that looked sour were not so unwelcome.
Find a good place to stand, hold the branches above with both hands, push your feet up the trunk, and climb up the tree. Find a suitable place to sit down in the middle of the tree branches, and reach out to pick a few wild fruits. Use the toilet paper in your pocket to wipe them, and don't forget to throw a few to the friends standing under the tree before putting them in your mouth.
The teeth just broke through the peel, and a very strong sourness spread from the contact point. The juice from the fruit first flows along the teeth to the gums. The sourness can almost make the teeth sour. All the children who started eating wrinkled their faces and drooled.
"So sour, so sour."
"It's so sour, then I won't eat it."
The children who haven't tasted it yet saw this scene and hesitated to back out.
The child who had eaten the fruit held the one he had bitten in his hand, and covered his cheek with his other hand and refused to eat. The child who stayed on the tree smacked his lips, his eyes lit up, and continued to pick fruits, and he shouted to the people below: "Who has a bag to bring up for us first?"
"Why are you picking these fruits if they count? Leave them on the tree until they are ripe and come back to pick them." The child below said this, but his body was very honest and took out a plastic bag from his pocket and handed it over.
"When they are ripe, they will be eaten by birds." The child on the tree pouted, put the fruit he had just picked in his palm and tossed it up and down twice, raised his face and shouted proudly to the people below, "Didn't the people who ate the fruit just now notice? This fruit is sour but not astringent, just like lemon. It might be good to soak it in water or use it as a seasoning."
This made some sense. Several children who were good at climbing trees looked at the other wild fruit trees and were ready to climb up.
"Throw down two for me to taste." Tuantuan and Wen Zheng sat under the tree and watched them tossing and turning. At this time, Tuantuan spoke, and immediately a few fruits with better appearance were picked and sent over.
Tuantuan took it and handed two to Wen Zheng, carefully feeling the taste of the fruit. There was almost no astringency inside, but it was sour enough. It seems that sufficient sunlight has some effect on the taste of this wild fruit.
"This kind of fruit can be picked, but I'll make it clear first. You can only climb trees on flat positions. Shake the branches before climbing. If you are not stable, you can't climb up. The fruit you pick should be larger than the circle of your thumb and index finger. If it is too small, let them stay on the tree and continue to grow." Wen Zheng patted the grass leaves stuck on his body and said, and went to check it himself with some worry.
The children in the village are all hardy. It is estimated that few of the children present have never climbed trees. The most mischievous ones in the past climbed trees like monkeys.
After the children were recognized by Wen Zheng and Tuantuan, they became more active and picked them up quickly with their little hands. The branches of this wild fruit tree will not go too deep, and Wen Zheng and Tuan Tuan will not let them do anything too dangerous. If they can't reach it, they won't pick it.
After picking almost all the fruits of the right size around them, the child on the tree looked left and right, trying to find the missed fruits. As a result, his eyes turned to the direction of the village, and his eyes stopped for a while.
As the saying goes, standing high, you can see far. Standing on the tree on the mountain, you can see the fields in the village where even weeds don't grow much, the rows of houses, and the roads with long lines of unfamiliar vehicles.
The child blinked his eyes to make sure that he was not seeing things, and immediately turned his head and shouted: "Brother Xiao Ling, there are many cars coming to our village."
"Come to our village?"
"Where? Let me see?"
"What kind of cars? Are there many?"
The children under the tree immediately started discussing, squeezing each other to find a suitable place to look, and even their feet couldn't help but tiptoe, until Wen Zheng and Tuan Tuan came over, they barely suppressed their excitement.
"It looks like an official motorcade, probably transporting solar power generation equipment." Wen Zheng's figure stood out among the children, and he easily found an angle that was not obscured among the many branches.
"Wow!" The children immediately burst into cheers. They heard their parents talk about it every day, and Tuantuan explained it to them in class. They knew the meaning of the arrival of solar power generation equipment very clearly.
"Grandpa and grandma don't have to save electricity every day. The sun shines for so long every day, so it must be able to produce a lot of electricity. Maybe we can't use it all. Then we can provide electricity to people who don't need it, just like Uncle Wen Zheng."
"You must not have listened carefully to Brother Xiao Ling's lecture last time. Except for the electricity we use, the excess will be sent away by the state, but it will definitely be sent to places that need electricity."
"When there is some heat at home, we can stay at home during the day, so do we not have to come to class?" A child probably said what was in his heart accidentally. After realizing that everyone's eyes were looking at him, he quickly covered his mouth with words, looking left and right but not daring to look at Tuantuan.
Some children's eyes flickered. It was not easy to have a holiday. It would be a lie to say that they didn't want to play.
It is the nature of children to love playing. Wen Zheng and Tuantuan are actually a little tired of taking care of these children every day. If they don't come for a few days, they can have a good rest: "When your home is not too hot, you will have a holiday. You don't have to come to class every day."
Wen Zheng finished speaking with a smile, and then led the impatient children down the mountain. As soon as he reached the foot of the mountain, he received a call from the village chief, saying that these vehicles were specially used to transport power generation equipment for installation, and asked him to come when he was free.
The temperature at dusk had dropped to a level that the human body could accept, but the residual temperature on the road under his feet could prove how strong the sunlight was during the day. The children had to wear heat-resistant shoes on their feet to prevent the soles from melting on the road.
As they walked, they met parents who heard the news and rushed out to see the situation. After seeing their parents, the children politely said goodbye to Wen Zheng, Tuantuan and their friends, and then quickly ran to their parents.
The children around them gradually returned to their families. Wen Zheng and Tuantuan walked side by side on the road, surrounded by people walking in groups of three or two, with some intervals in between, but walking on this road for the same goal.
Just want to survive and live better.
