Yesterday was a zero degree climate with short days and long nights. Today, the sun rose at five o'clock in the morning, followed by a hotter temperature.
Wang he he and Meng hanghai were in poor health. They fainted when the temperature suddenly changed at zero last night. She is already a power person, but she is used to playing in the office, and someone in her house is also as weak as people expect. Gongsun Jing is busy taking care of them, and she has no skills. Hou Ying is not much better. She just went outside to help for a few minutes. She was thirsty and sweating like a waterfall. Worried about his dehydration, Jiang Tao advised him to go back to the air-conditioned room.
What makes them even more indignant is that the sudden change of temperature makes their food rot greatly!
Only rice, instant noodles and flour remained, such as bread, biscuits and some cooked fruits and vegetables. Even if there was vacuum packaging, they were rotten overnight. And they cherish the chocolate they keep to replenish their physical strength when they move, which turns directly into liquid and contaminates the container.
In the face of the food piled up into a hill from the container, Su Fenghe, who has not yet fully integrated into the new collective, is very conservative and has few words.
They sighed and sighed, but they had no choice but to drive to the place near the parking lot to find a large mobile freezer for food preservation in the climate of 40 degrees. When they came back, they brought back another piece of bad news.
The temperature outside has no effect on the activity of zombies. On the contrary, they obviously feel that zombies are more excited in high temperature than in low temperature, and even their powers have been improved to a certain extent! Last night's Zombie roar was not a riot they thought, but a carnival!
There are three air conditioners. The air conditioner in the vertical cabinet is placed in the rest room on the second floor. Two hanging air conditioners are installed in the cabs of two heavy trucks.
Li Xuanyuan also dismantled two freezers and the main controller of the central air conditioner on this trip. He was busy changing them into the body that can control the temperature in time. He prepared one for the rest room and the other for the food container, so as to avoid the recurrence of similar food spoilage. This kind of technical work, in addition to Jiang Tao can play a hand in the side, no one else can help.
Hou Ying is thinking hard about how to adjust her schedule. Qiao Daye tells them what they have seen outside.
Not to mention the smell of zombies and mixed putrescence outside, the only materials they can collect outside this time are grain and oil, and other things they either have enough or can't use, so they can't take back the occupied space.
Gongsun Jing added: "this is a municipal city. There must be hospitals. Where do we need to go. Even if the drugs are ill, there are always thermometers and sphygmomanometers. In addition, we need a lot of edible salt. I think you are also prepared. In such a hot weather, I don't believe it can be finished in one or two days. Without enough salt supplement, we are easy to dehydrate
Everyone knows that her proposal is correct, and no one is against it.
They brainstormed and racked their brains to figure out how to deal with such a harsh living environment. Su Fenghe, who has always been working hard and seldom expresses his ideas, said this time: "brother monkey, I have an idea. I don't know if it's feasible."
They urged him to speak quickly. Su Fenghe sorted out his language and then said, "we have a problem eating now. Only eat staple food or instant noodles, can only carry hungry, can not supplement vitamins and other nutrients, so no one can support. I saw some potatoes sprouting outside today, so I thought, can we find some vegetables and grow some vegetables ourselves? "
Several people didn't expect it to be such a simple and practical way. Gongsun Jing said, "but we don't know how to grow vegetables. I don't know if Xuanyuan's powers can be used."
Hou Ying said: "Lao Su, since you can put it forward, you must have thought about how to do it. We have no experience in this aspect. Just say it."
Su Fenghe's hometown is in a rural area in the north. He helped his family do farm work while he was studying. Although he lived in Kangcheng for many years, he didn't lose his common sense and practical ability. Seeing that they were very interested in their own opinions, they said, "we also added a layer to the second card. We were going to put food and materials. I was thinking, can we even half the space to grow vegetables? As long as I find the dishes, I will check the general varieties. For example, I used to work with people in the village to produce bean sprouts and grow mushrooms. These are not big places, and the breeding cycle is not long, but now it's hard to find beans wrapped with mushrooms. "
"Good!" Qiao Daye said: "Lao Su is better than anything with this skill! We should pay attention to the seeds. In cities like this, there are always flower and bird markets and vegetable supply places, so we can't even find seeds. Oh, that's great. I'm still thinking about the pickled eggs and vegetables we managed to get back. They all rotted last night. What should we eat in the future. Now, I don't need to eat white rice, but instant noodles every day! "
Jiang Tao jokingly said, "I've wronged you for having rice and noodles. How many people outside can't eat enough!"
Qiao Daye smiles. They all look at Hou Ying. Finally, he decided that the team would stay at the fifth stop for another five days. On the one hand, they would slowly find the materials they needed, and on the other hand, they would adjust their physical condition to adapt to the high temperature.
It's so hot and dry that even trained people like Jiang Tao and them can't sleep. Hou Ying looks at Wang he and Meng hanghai, who are sleeping under the action of drugs, and says anxiously, "it's not the way to stay in the air-conditioned room. The longer you stay here, the more you can't go out. These days, we try to adjust the temperature of the air conditioner up to no more than five degrees from the outside, otherwise it's easier to get sick in and out. "Hou Ying, who has experience in taking care of her nephew, thought of this problem faster than Gong Sun Jing, a doctor.
Ji Yao said feebly: "the key is that he has become too fast. He doesn't say hello. Who can stand it?"
He is still hanging water, the pain is not over, the whole person seems to have no spirit. Li Xuanyuan took out a temperature controller which he put outside the heavy truck before going out today. At that time, he took some of each type of instrument in the instrument factory of the industrial zone in case of future use. I didn't expect that it would come into use so soon.
He showed the record of the temperature controller to the public and said in a deep voice: "this is the temperature record from six o'clock today to now. The average temperature is 39 degrees, and the hottest two o'clock in the afternoon is 42 degrees. The weather is so unreasonable. "
Not to mention the sudden surge from zero to more than 30 degrees, 42 degrees is almost impossible for Eastern China, which is north of the subtropical zone. People on earth all have the geographical knowledge of seasonal changes, rising and falling of the sun and the moon, and climate and temperature. How can this kind of high temperature in the equatorial tropics appear here? And it's in April of spring! Is there something wrong with the rotation of the earth? This is so unscientific!
More importantly, is this phenomenon only around here, or is there climate anomaly all over the world?
For them with blocked messages, this has become a problem without solution.
The next day, they saw the temperature change at night from the temperature controller. Compared with the daytime, the temperature was not so high at night without direct sunlight. And they didn't repeat last night's 38 degree heat when it got hot, with an average of about 35 degrees.
Jiang Tao then suggested that since the temperature at night was acceptable, it would be better for them to go to bed day by day and work at night.
Hou Ying hesitated. He was afraid that their endocrine system would be disturbed if they were not adjusted day and night. If they were to endanger their health for the sake of temperature, it would not be worth the loss.
Li Xuanyuan directly vetoed: "no way. After the high temperature, the zombie virus seems to have evolved. I can feel that their threat is much higher than a day ago, and the number of psionic zombies seems to have increased. In other words, ordinary zombies may have experienced a second natural evolution in high temperature metamorphosis, and derived powers. Another problem is that the power supply here has been cut off, there is no lighting at night, and the visible range of our own lighting is limited. In case of high-level metal zombies, wind zombies or lightning zombies that we accidentally circled last time, it is very dangerous. If our whole team concentrate on action, the safety problem may be guaranteed, but now the time of low temperature at night is less than eight hours, our action will only get twice the result with half the effort. "
Li Xuanyuan has a point.
But thinking of the high temperature outside, several people hesitated.
Hou Ying clenched her fist and said, "I also think what we need to do now is to adapt as soon as possible instead of avoiding opportunistically. We don't know how long this kind of hot weather will last, and whether it will be repeated next year. If we force the clock to reverse now, we will have to reverse it again in winter. I'm afraid that our bodies will not be able to bear it again and again. "
Qiao Daye said: "I'm joking. I'm really worried that the weather is just his old man's dessert. If we make a 60 degree high temperature like the equatorial desert, we can roast it directly."
He believed in Buddhism in his family, so he would not complain about God. Now he was forced to live.
Liu Zhan also said: "it's better to wait for Xuanyuan to collect data for another two days, and then we can work out the adaptation training according to the temperature. Brother Tao, we have also received similar high and low temperature adaptation training in the army. Now that our bodies are still able to support us, we should train brother monkey's physique according to the old method. Although you don't have to be in a hurry, you have to adapt slowly. Otherwise, if the weather turns hot and cold, shall we take action? "
Everyone knows this truth. Ji Yao, who was most reluctant to face the reality before, was the first to say: "fight! Anyway, the end of the world is not to be enjoyed! "
In this regard, everyone agrees with the training plan of positive high temperature.
When the temperature dropped to 33 degrees at 11 o'clock in the night, everyone went to bed, and Liu Zhan was in charge of the night. At 4 a.m. the next day, several people got up to eat rice before the sun rose. Two heavy trucks headed for their destination, the municipal hospital.
