Infinite Disaster Survival

Chapter 180 Chapter 180 (1/2)

The treatment was not very effective, and the country was also helpless. The only thing they could do was to go out as little as possible. Staying in a closed room could reduce contact with the air, but staying indoors for a long time would cause psychological problems.

They could only try their best to relieve the pressure.

When Wen Zheng and Tuan Tuan went out, they noticed that the ballads that Tuan Tuan had organized the bird group to sing were frequently played by people, and the two of them remembered the long-forgotten live broadcast room.

When logging into the live broadcast application, the phone was stuck for a while, and the private messages and comments were all full. At first, most of them were praises and thanks, and later they urged them to resume the live broadcast or play a few more songs. Now it has evolved into worry about them, wondering if something happened to them during this period.

After reading these contents, Wen Zheng gave the next choice to Tuan Tuan. The bird group was basically managed by Tuan Tuan, and most of the live broadcast room doors were also filmed by Tuan Tuan.

The group of birds that came to take refuge during the acid rain had never been restricted in their freedom, but the environment polluted by acid rain was already difficult for them to survive, so they did not take the initiative to leave.

Now the community doesn't need birds to patrol. These birds eat and drink at Wen's house every day. Tuantuan is thinking about asking them to pay for food.

So the door of the live broadcast room, which had been closed for a long time, was opened again that night. The audience who came to watch were delighted, and the news spread quickly on the Internet.

Wen Zheng, who was searching the current national policies on his mobile phone, spent less than ten minutes searching and returning to see that the entry that clearly referred to Tuantuan's live broadcast room door was on the hot list, and realized the popularity of the live broadcast room door again.

The bird choir started playing again. Tuantuan controlled the intelligence of the birds to a point that would not really arouse suspicion. He taught them new songs every long enough. He only kept a part of the income from each live broadcast room door as food for the birds, and donated all the rest. He and his father did not lack this income, so the country would arrange how to use it after donating it.

The country is doing its best to prepare for the next disaster.

There was another light rain in the past two months. This time there was no typhoon, but the air still contained harmful components that spread from the volcanic eruption, turning this ordinary rain into acid rain.

Environmental purification requires a lot of time, and the coal, oil and natural gas burned in human activities will produce acidic substances emitted into the atmosphere. The environment can still bear it before the disaster, but if it is not controlled now, it will make the situation worse.

After these situations were announced by the government, everyone was called on to truly save energy and reduce emissions. The Little Ice Age, which is expected to gradually come in the next few years, requires a lot of energy. If humans want to survive, they must start preparing now.

While calling on the public to save energy, the government also tried to develop clean energy. Solar energy cannot be relied on. In addition to wind energy, the country began to build biogas digesters everywhere, using biogas for heating and cooking. The remaining biogas digester residues can also be used to fertilize the fields, and the food crisis is not far away.

All government workers are busy non-stop. In order to cope with the next crisis, the country has formulated a series of measures to adjust the current social structure and use productivity in the most urgent places.

Changes happen around people every day.

The time gate quietly came to winter, and people were almost used to the days when they didn't see much sunlight, and then they were frozen by the sudden change of weather.

In recent years, because of the increasingly serious greenhouse effect, the average temperature has gradually increased, and the coldness of winter has become less and less. Not to mention the southern region, even the central region rarely sees snowflakes.

But this winter, there was a heavy snowfall, which made people recall the winter more than ten years ago. At that time, just like now, snowflakes fell like goose feathers, and soon the earth turned white.

Even the south welcomed the snow that had not been seen for many years.

It was not cold when it snowed. After seeing the snowflakes, many people were a little excited, but soon the news reported that the water after the melted snow was detected to be acidic, so it was best not to contact with the skin.

Even so, some people wore scarves and gloves to play in the snow, making snowmen and snowball fights. The sound of laughter spread far away, and the happy mood was transmitted with the laughter, which made people laugh when they heard it.

The happy days did not last long. They became sad before half a day. The snow was trampled and condensed into ice. People walking on it slipped and fell to the ground before they could react. They slipped again before they could get up from the ground. Even those who wanted to help might fall down with them.

It was not easy for adults to fall down. Children were short and light, so it was the easiest for them. They could get up immediately after patting their buttocks after falling down. But if the elderly slipped on the road, they really couldn't get up.

In previous years, in order to clear the ice on the road, some people would sprinkle salt to accelerate the melting of ice. Now no one would waste it like this. The main salt producing areas were polluted by acid rain. Even with the most optimistic attitude, only the stock of salt can be consumed in the next two years.

The snowplows sent by the government cleared the main roads, and people found various tools to clear the snow themselves. The children who were required to continue to go to school after the disaster welcomed a few days of vacation and came out with their parents to help.

After clearing the snow, Wen Zheng went to the supermarket to check. According to the weather forecast for the next few days, even if the vegetables were planted indoors where it was not so cold, the temperature would still be too low in two days. So in order to prevent the death of these vegetables, Wen Zheng bought a lot of plastic film in advance and wrapped it around the shelves for insulation.

Just like the plastic greenhouses in previous winters.

After two days, the snow began to melt and the temperature continued to drop.

The volcanic eruption was not far away from now, and the temperature was not ridiculously low. It was just a few degrees below zero, just like the snowy days before the disaster. You can clearly see the white mist when you breathe out in the house, and you can immediately freeze into ice when you pour a basin of water outside.

However, there were many ways to keep warm in previous years, but not this year. Air conditioners and electric heaters, which burn electricity for heating, cannot be used at all because of power restrictions, and heating is even less available, so people can only keep warm physically.

All the thick clothes at home were taken out. They didn't care whether they looked good or not, but only cared whether they were warm or not. When going out, they wore hats, scarves, and gloves. It was so cold that people shivered all over.

The flowered cotton jackets that were about to be eliminated in recent years have become popular again. Don't look at how they look, but they are really warm to wear. When it's really cold and people will get sick, no one will choose to ignore the temperature and pay attention to appearance.

When the weather is cold and the roads are difficult to walk, fewer people go to work, especially when wearing thick clothes, their feet are easy to get cold. The few vehicles that drive on the road are prone to slipping, and even if they drive slower, there have been several minor car accidents.

Everyone welcomed the holiday under such circumstances. Staying at home, wearing furry clothes and hiding in thick quilts, it didn't take long for the whole body to become warm. Some people also exercised in the house, running and jumping to warm up their bodies.

Wen Zheng and Tuan Tuan, who have improved their physical fitness, have adapted well to the current temperature. They are not afraid that others will find it strange at home, so they only wear thicker sweaters and trousers.

The two of them also covered all the pots with vegetables at home with a layer of insulation film. These vegetables grown at home can supply the two people's daily consumption.

When the snow melted almost completely and the roadside was easy to walk on, the two of them went to the supermarket to take a look. The vegetables on the first floor were all kept warm with plastic film. They were all in good spirits, but they grew a little slower than normal, which was within the normal range. The chickens on the second floor were all huddled together to keep warm, and they looked listless.

When they went up, the employees who stayed in the supermarket were picking up the fallen chicken feathers. These chicken feathers were not going to be thrown away. They were all collected and might be used in the future after being cleaned. It was when supplies were scarce that anything useful could not be thrown away.

In the following days, it rarely snowed, but the temperature did not rise much. The road was easy to walk on, but the weather was still so cold that the feet were frozen every day. People who didn't like exercise couldn't help but move more.

Later, when it snowed again, some people couldn't stand the cold weather and bought coal at a high price to burn at home. They were afraid of being discovered and didn't leave a large ventilation hole. Then they fainted in the house due to coal poisoning, and the whole family couldn't be rescued.

There are also fires caused by burning fire in the house. Such situations have occurred all over the country. The news can only keep reminding people to keep warm through exercise. More people go out for jogging every day. No one uses the elevator that is only opened at a fixed time every day. Everyone takes the stairs.

People have just gotten used to this kind of cold days. When the Spring Festival is about to come, large-scale snowfall will come again across the country.

Originally, prices would rise a lot near the end of the year. When hearing about large-scale snowfall, it directly became a soaring price, and the price was updated every half a day.

The price of vegetables planted by Wen Zheng and chickens raised also increased a little, but not too much. When other places continued to rise, he stopped. Old customers came to ask about the price and were immediately happy. Unfortunately, according to Wen Zheng's rules, they could only buy in limited quantities.

Before the customers who came to buy vegetables called for more people to rush to buy, the police car stopped at the door of the supermarket. The purpose of coming here was also to purchase ingredients.

Wen Zheng naturally welcomed the police to come to buy. It stands to reason that places like supermarkets that sell goods cannot be transformed into planting and breeding areas. It was just because the country encouraged full use of indoor space after the volcanic eruption. Wen Zheng immediately applied for approval after hearing the news. Later, the police helped a lot in the continued operation of the supermarket. Today, they can't let them go empty-handed.

Wen Zheng asked the police how much they wanted to buy this time. After looking at the shelves and the number of customers in the supermarket, he knew it in his heart.

Asking the employees to hang a sold-out sign at the door, Wen Zheng sorted out the quantity needed by the police and handed it to them. At this time, the customers had almost chosen, and they had paid but did not leave. The remaining few looked at the remaining ingredients in the supermarket and asked: "Boss Wen, you haven't sold out this thing yet, can you sell us some more?"

"No, these are reserved for my employees. If you want to buy, you can ask them." Wen Zheng smiled.

No one was making a fuss at Jianwen Zheng's place. The police paid the bill and left with the food. The New Year was coming and there was a blizzard. They still needed to stay on duty in the police station. They were still running around these days to remind everyone to take precautions.

The snow came earlier than the time in the weather forecast. This was a much heavier snow than the previous ones. I felt like I was going to freeze after standing outside for two minutes. The holiday came early, and most people stayed at home to avoid the cold.

Wen Zheng and Tuantuan cooked hot pot at home. Only this kind of food that is always heated will not become cold before eating much. There are a lot of peppers in the hot pot. The boiling soup inside is bright red. The vegetables cooked in it fully absorb the spicy taste. When they eat it, they feel warm all over.

The birds are all hiding at home, eating the food soaked in hot water prepared by Tuantuan for them.

After eating, they curled up in the sofa wrapped in blankets. Wen Zheng and Tuantuan were close together, especially Tuantuan, who was like a small stove, and it was quite comfortable to hug. The two sat on the sofa and looked through the relevant information about the volcanic eruption and the subsequent small ice age, and at the same time, they looked for products that could solve this disaster in the system store.

This mission is not simple. Famine and cold will come together in the next few years. Maybe Wen Zheng and Tuantuan can survive in this world for seven years, but by then there may be few people left in this world.

Wen Zheng wants to find a way to deal with this disaster, but he is not sure where to start, so he can only look for it bit by bit.

Seeing that the two owners were too busy to take care of them, the well-taught birds returned to their room doors, flew into the drum and started to generate electricity by themselves, which was worthy of praise.

The time gate immersed in thinking flew from the fingertips like quicksand. Wen Zheng and Tuantuan were busy researching except for eating. From time to time, they pointed at the latest discovered goods and discussed with each other, and then waited for the sudden power outage in the house.

The energy-saving lamps turned off, and the house was dark. The power was out again. Recalling the big snowstorm mentioned in the news today. There was still a whirring sound of wind outside the window, and the wind and snow were mixed. Wen Zheng had reason to suspect that the snow had collapsed the wires.

Wen Zheng and Tuantuan blinked their eyes, and after waiting for a few seconds, they got used to the darkness, moved freely in the room door, turned off the switch and turned on another one, and changed the circuit used.

The lights in the house lit up again, and the electricity used now came from the batteries stored in the house. Wen Zheng usually earns a lot of electricity from selling food, so he finds time to charge several batteries at home for emergency use.

The power outage and network outage again did not have much impact on the lives of the two. They continued to look for it, but they could not find a suitable option until the New Year's Day. The two put aside this worry and prepared for the New Year's Eve tonight.

The water from the faucet first passed through the multiple water purifiers in the house before flowing out. It stopped flowing before it flowed for two seconds. Wen Zheng reached out and knocked on the water pipe a few times to distinguish the sound and confirmed that the water in the water pipe was frozen, which meant that the water was still out.

Then use the reserve water source at home. If it doesn't work, there is still the reserve in the storage space door. Even if there are only two of them at home, they will be annoying during the New Year.

However, there is a group of birds, and the house is always quiet. There are also enthusiastic neighbors. Several families knocked on the door to ask about the situation and talk about how the New Year's Eve dinner is prepared. Even if the mood is affected by the power outage and water outage, I still try to maintain my expectations for life.
