Chapter 17 Water and Power Outages
The atmosphere in the whole city gradually became anxious.

Under the extremely low temperature, even if the air conditioner is turned on all the time, the indoor temperature is always kept below zero.

This makes it difficult for people in Jinghai City in the south who have never experienced sub-zero temperatures to adapt.

What's more, people in Jinghai City don't have the habit of storing things. After the three days of heavy snowfall, the refrigerators of every household have gradually bottomed out.

It was snowing heavily outside, and even the sun in the sun was covered by thick clouds, so that day and night could only be distinguished by clocks.

On the morning of the fourth day, Ye Xingchen got up from the bed. After washing up, he took out a steaming steamed crabmeat dumpling from the space, and looked at his watch while sipping soymilk.

It's almost time, and the show is about to begin.

Ye Xingchen stuffed a delicious and juicy soup-filled steamed bun into his mouth, and started the countdown in his heart with the corners of his lips curled up.

Two, one.

The countdown had just ended, and the group chat on the phone exploded in an instant.

This is the fourth day of the end, and the fun is only now officially beginning.

Ye Xingchen knew what was going to happen today, so he slept very early last night, and hurried to get up this morning to watch everyone's performance.

In fact, it is not a big event, it is just that today, the entire Jinghai City will suddenly fall into a world of power outages.

And not long after, due to the chain reaction of power outages, the water company was unable to supply water normally.

There was a problem with the water supply system, causing every household to suddenly stop the water.

Ye Xingchen looked at his watch, the time when these things happened in this life was exactly the same as in the previous life.

At the beginning of the end, no one thought how long this extremely low temperature disaster would last.

The authorities are doing their best to support this snow disaster, which is rare in a millennium.

But as time goes by day by day, they will find that this disaster is not a problem that can be solved by manpower.

The weather is cold and freezing, and major hydroelectric power plants have been shut down one after another. The thermal power plants are also unable to continue to generate electricity because employees are blocked by the snowstorm and unable to go to work.

After cities across the country exhausted their stored electricity, a nationwide blackout became inevitable.

At this moment, only a few nuclear power plants are still operating.

The electricity generated by these nuclear power plants is also first supplied to the government.

Power cuts and water cuts plunged the lives of ordinary citizens into panic and darkness.

Ye Xingchen, on the other hand, took out two silent generators early on to continue supplying energy for the safe house.

Ye Xingchen turned on his phone and found that the chat history in almost every group was already 99+.

"Do you have electricity at home?"

"Our house has no electricity! And the running water has stopped! What the hell is going on here?"

"I don't know, our house is the same. I woke up from the cold early in the morning, only to find out that there was a power outage at home."

"Do you have any water?"

"What's the matter, no water cut-off notice?"

"What about the property? When will the power supply be restored? It's too cold this day. If the power supply is not restored, the elderly at home will not be able to survive!"

"What about the official? What about the official people? Why don't you come out and take care of it! If this continues, people will freeze to death!"

"Yeah! Usually the slogan is so loud! Why are you pretending to be a turtle at this time!"

Ye Xingchen shook his head silently.

At this time, the official may be overwhelmed.

If you want to survive, you can only rely on yourself.

Ye Xingchen knew that the doomsday, starting from today, could be regarded as the real coming.

Without water, electricity and food in modern society, people will fall into mass death.

Thinking of this, Ye Xingchen raised his head and looked around his home with lingering fear.

If I hadn't lived a new life, if I hadn't experienced all kinds of pain in the previous life, and had made plans early, I'm afraid that I would die like them in this cold winter.

When Ye Xingchen saw his safe house with iron walls and felt the warmth like spring, he felt so at ease in his heart.

After feeling the space full of supplies with his mind, Ye Xingchen opened the owner group of the villa area with satisfaction.

If it weren't for the advanced technology now, the battery of the mobile phone would no longer go on strike due to low temperature, and because the three major network operators have their own reserve power, these people may not even be able to use their mobile phones now.

However, there is a large-scale power outage, and the stored power will eventually be exhausted one day. At that time, the mobile phone will still become useless waste.

"Damn it! How long will this snow continue to fall?!"

"The air conditioner is no longer working, and it's already minus 30 degrees inside the room!"

"If this continues, people will really freeze to death!"

"The water has also stopped, do you want us to drink snow water?!"

"Where are the official people? Why haven't they said when the power supply will be restored!"

"Our house has nothing to eat, but the heavy snow has sealed the door, and we can't get out, what should we do!"

Someone started Aite Liu Qilong.

"Uncle Liu, do you still have food at home? Can you buy some from us? Ten times the price is fine!"

"Uncle Liu, you told us to stay at home and not go out. Now that we have no food at home, we all listened to your words. You are responsible for this!"

"When did the higher-ups come to rescue us? Does anyone know?"

There were even some people who started chatting with Zhang Yi in the group.

"Xiao Zhang, isn't your family related? Did they tell you what the people above are planning?"

"Yes, Xiao Zhang, what are the plans of the people above? We have nothing to eat. Even if we don't starve to death, we are about to freeze to death."

Facing the questions from the neighbors, Zhang Yi felt anxious and panicked.

At this time, he was more afraid than other owners.

Others still don't know what the higher-ups are planning, but Zhang Yi's father is the right-hand man of the superior, and he has sent Zhang Yi a message long ago.

"It's snowing all over the world right now, not just our country."

"The blizzard is strange. According to experts, this is a rare global snow disaster in hundreds of thousands of years. Maybe, we are ushering in another large-scale mass extinction, which is... the end! "

"Although the authorities are already trying to figure out a way, Xiaoyi, you also know that our country has a population of more than one billion, and the authorities simply can't take care of it."

"Several major domestic cities have all shut down."

"I can't tell where I'm from here, Xiaoyi, you must find a way to store more supplies, don't think too much!"

"Prepare a lot of energy for food and heating! And be careful, don't be discovered by others!"

"I don't know how long this snow will last. I have already sent someone to deliver supplies to you, but there are too many obstacles on the road, so you have to think of a way."
