Back to the end of the world: I rely on hundreds of millions of materials to lie down and win natura

Chapter 7 The Temperature Soars
They learned from the owner group that the elderly in Building No. [-] suffered from asthma recurrence after being exposed to acid rain.Since there is only a young grandson in the family, the medicine was not given in time, and it is almost dying now.

Chi Yue doesn't remember if this happened in her previous life, but young children and the elderly are indeed the most vulnerable groups under natural disasters.

The later the stage, the lower the survival rate.

She withdrew her gaze from downstairs, facing the death of others, she was already numb.The only one who just wants to survive the dark end of the world with Wen Qizhou.

Seeing that it was still early, she and Wen Qi each read "Planting and Cultivation Encyclopedia" and "Postpartum Care of Sows" for an hour, and then went into the kitchen to prepare some cooked food.

In the evening, the TV station intervened to interview the news.

The interviewees were people with minor injuries who were trapped in public places and temporarily unable to go home.

The official prepared well and provided them with food and medicine, but they were not in good condition under the camera.

Even across the screen, the couple could clearly feel their fear and panic.

"The pH value has dropped to 3.7." Wen Qizhou measured it again, and couldn't help but lament the ruthlessness of natural disasters and the insignificance of human beings.

He sighed secretly, glad that the acid rain would end tonight, but at the same time worried about the coming extreme heat.

There are too many social crises where order collapses.Although he didn't experience it personally, he could also imagine what those extreme people would do after the evil thoughts of human nature were magnified.

He stared at Chi Yue's radiant face, which made people unable to take his eyes off, and said seriously: "Yueyue, are you still going? If not, let's go to the gym to practice for a while?"

They have practiced against each other many times recently.

Chi Yue's ultimate move is well mastered, but the arm strength trained in the previous life has not followed, and her physical strength still needs to be improved.

And he also needs to become stronger.

"Okay." Chi Yue followed him to the fitness room.

After they warmed up, they started sparring. Both sides showed no mercy, directly attacking each other's vitals, trying to knock him to the ground.

After three rounds, there is still no winner.

Chi Yue, who was covered in sweat, raised her foot to kick his crotch. At the moment he dodged, she found an opportunity to grab his arm, and threw him over the shoulder with all her strength.

Wen Qizhou, who fell to the ground, raised his eyes and asked, "If I didn't hide, would you have really kicked me?"

"How? I just want to scare..."

Before the word "you" could be said, Chi Yue's ankle was suddenly grabbed by him, pulling her down with a force.

"When you are not sure whether the other party has the ability to resist, you must not be distracted."

Wen Qizhou held him down while talking.

This is the experience he has gained after being bullied again and again under the title of "orphan".

"Of course I know!" If she didn't trust him, how could she be distracted at this time.

Chi Yue, who was calculated, tried her best to break free from his imprisonment, and then rushed forward to start a new round of sparring with him.

You come and I go back and forth many times, and only in the dead of night, with your exhausted body, go to the bathroom to wash off your sticky body.

*
The acid rain stopped at four o'clock in the morning.

When the first ray of sunshine sprinkled the earth, the outdoor temperature quietly rose to 35 degrees Celsius.

The beginning of summer begins in mid-May, and people don't feel much about the change in temperature, and they all think it's a normal phenomenon.

Lu Xu, an old man who couldn't stay at home, went downstairs and gathered in twos and threes to discuss the acid rain yesterday; office workers and students rushed to their respective careers and futures as usual; way home.

The whole city resumed its bustling scene.

While Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou could still go out, they went to the shooting gallery where he joined the club every morning to practice marksmanship.

For the rest of the time, follow the previous track, reading, cooking, feeding poultry and sparring.

The fulfilling life was repeated for a week, and the temperature continued to rise as high as 53 degrees Celsius.

Wildfires are raging at home and abroad, and volcanic eruptions occur frequently. Many outdoor workers have induced heat stroke at high temperatures, and the death toll has also increased visible to the naked eye.

People began to go out less, whether it was students who had an early vacation or employees who worked at home, they all lived in cool air-conditioned rooms and refused to take a step outside.

The couple adapted well, but the shooting gallery with poor business was about to close down.

After they practiced the gun for the last time, they endured the sweltering heat and drove back to Yujingwan. As a result, there was a power outage in the community.

"There seems to be someone on the first floor." Chi Yue vaguely heard a conversation, and asked Wen Qizhou to climb upstairs from the safe passage.

"Hey! Isn't a circuit failure killing people at this time? What does the property say? How long will it take to restore power?"

"Like two hours."

"This damn weather is so tormenting! It's fine if it doesn't rain, and there will be a power outage! Who can bear it if it goes on like this?"

"you do not say."

Four young people and two old ladies each carried the things they bought in the supermarket, and sat on the sofa in the hall with sad faces.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, they turned their heads to look at the same time. The old lady Wu with a mole on her left cheek greeted the couple: "Xiaowen, you just came back from outside?"

Mrs. Wu lives on the eleventh floor.

She is a well-known "big speaker" in the community, if someone's gossip is known to her, it will definitely spread.

Wen Qizhou smiled and nodded: "Yes." He mentioned the power outage: "It's normal for the circuit to have problems with such a high temperature. I heard that many places in the city have shut down."

"Can the power company fix it?"

"It's okay now." He paused for two seconds: "But if the temperature continues to rise, they may not care about it."

Chi Yue looked at the right time and said: "Qizhou, my cousin said that many people are buying solar power panels recently, should we also buy one? I'm afraid it will be out of stock after a while."

Chinese people love to follow suit and snap up.

Especially when you are not sure whether there will be a power outage, when you hear keywords such as "many people are buying" and "it will be out of stock after a while", it is very easy to be evoked with a sense of urgency.

Mrs. Wu couldn't sit still: "Xiaochi, how much is the solar power panel you mentioned? Is it enough to buy one?"

"I don't know either." Chi Yue pretended not to understand: "Are you asking the merchant?"

A young man with a little understanding said: "The power generation board determines the wattage according to your home's electricity demand. If your family needs to turn on the air conditioner, it will take at least three kilowatts to drive it."

"But the area of ​​the 20KW power generation panel is too large, it will take up about [-] square meters, can it fit in your house? If not, it's better to buy a kerosene generator."

"The generator consumes too much fuel." The girl next to him disapproved: "I think it's more cost-effective to use generator panels, and it's not that they can't be connected in series. Wouldn't it be enough to buy a few more pieces?"

The four young men debated, and the two old ladies were confused, let alone how to choose.

But no matter which one they choose, they will always include it in their shopping plan, and Chi Yue's goal has been achieved.

She knows that she is not as good as everyone else.

The more people own a generator/panel, the less likely they are to be noticed at home.

*
Through Mrs. Wu's publicity, many residents of Yujingwan are organizing groups to buy generators or solar panels.

Of course, some tenants and groups who think it is unnecessary are unmoved, and some even ridicule those who follow suit in the owner group, saying that they are driving sales for the merchants.

until-
The temperature climbed to 57 degrees, Sui City announced power and water restrictions, and the group of people couldn't laugh anymore.

They looked around for sources to buy generators/power panels, but they were sold out long ago and there was no way to replenish them.

The thick-skinned people begged for shelter in the group, but no one responded. They could only go to the parking lot to enjoy the coolness during power cuts.

Chi Yue saw four or five households posting videos of the air conditioner in the group to show off to them, so she couldn't help frowning.

"Qizhou, look." She played the second video again: "He took pictures of the water and food at home."

"He did it on purpose?" After receiving a positive response, Wen Qizhou could only say: "It's so stupid."

The ancients once said that "wealth should not be exposed". Nowadays, the value of food and water is comparable to gold and silver. Who can be so handsome?

Moreover, as people's hearts become more impetuous with the weather, it is difficult for those groups who cannot buy charging pads not to feel resentful.

He picked up the clothes hanger in front of his knees: "When the water and electricity are completely cut off, his house will definitely be the first to be robbed."

"That can't be helped." It's impossible for her to remind her anyway. What if the other party is robbed and slandered her as an accomplice?
Are you asking for trouble?
Chi Yue took out a sliced ​​watermelon, forked a piece into his mouth, and asked with lowered eyes, "Where are your socks and boxers?"

After receiving the power cut notice in the morning, Chi Yue asked him to move to the master bedroom and live with her in the future.

Although most of the reason was to save diesel for the generator, Wen Qizhou couldn't hide his joy and packed it up early.

"Put it in the storage box." He hung up the clothes in an orderly manner, turned his head and said, "Yueyue, take out the underwear we bought, and I'll put it in the washing machine to wash it."

When Chi Yue ordered clothes for the first time, she forgot to ask for disposable underwear, and she had to wash them all before wearing them.

By the way, she brought out another washing machine for underwear, and said vaguely: "If you can't finish washing, save it for washing at night."

Water and electricity supply is divided into two time periods.

They are from [-] to [-] in the afternoon, and from [-] to [-] in the evening. Although they do not lack water and electricity, they can save as much as possible.

"Okay." Wen Qizhou came back in 10 minutes, and opened the unread WeChat account: "Brother Yuan asked if we should go to the supermarket?"

"Go." Chi Yue watched the instructional video on milking goats on the iPad, and said warmly, "It's time for us to go shopping."

"Then I'll make an appointment with him."

At eight o'clock in the evening, the three met in the corridor.

Yuan Chuan lives in 2602 with his parents, wife and children.

He used to be a track and field athlete, his body was stronger than average, his skin was darker, and he had a face full of self-indignation.

"How much money did you bring?" After asking, he found that this sentence was wrong, and he smiled embarrassedly: "I heard that the price has risen again, and a bottle of 350ml water is selling for [-]."

The couple knew his kindness.

After all, they helped each other many times in the previous life, and he even saved Chi Yue's life, so the character of the other party is clearly visible.

"It's so high?" Chi Yue walked downstairs among them: "We brought ten thousand, should it be enough?"
