Traveling through the new apocalyptic era

Chapter 239 242 Heavy Snow 12

Taking off a small shovel hanging from the side of the backpack, Yin Ling began to shovel the snow, and finally cleared an open space of 2 meters x 2 meters.

The tent is for two people and is not big, but it is more than enough for Yin Ling and grandma to sleep in it.

The waterproof tent always gave people a very cold feeling when it was spread on the ground. Yin Ling wanted to take out all the mattresses and beddings in the space and spread them inside, but in the end he could only spread the blankets he brought from the house inside. .

The two of them entered the tent and zipped it up. Although it was just a tent, the surrounding snow, which was more than one meter high, could block the surrounding wind.

The dim flashlight light illuminated this small world, and Grandma and Yin Ling felt a strange sense of security sitting inside.

Grandma saw Yin Ling take out a red 500ml water cup from his backpack, pour a bottle of mineral water into it, press a button at the bottom, put it aside and start taking things out of the backpack.

"Grandma, this is a sleeping bag. Put it on when you go to sleep. It's very warm."

Grandma had never seen this thing before, so she nodded and looked at her granddaughter who was still busy taking out things, and finally realized that something was wrong.

"Where did you get this thing?"

Yin Ling's hand holding out the bread paused for a moment, and then he said naturally, "The ones I bought in my little pink tram were kept in the car and were too troublesome to be moved out."

The dim light couldn't illuminate Yin Ling's face clearly. Grandma remembered that during this period of time at home, besides exercising, she also liked to buy things. Hearing her say that, she didn't doubt it, but felt a little lucky.

"Grandma, have you eaten?"

"I've eaten. I'm not hungry. You can eat."

Yin Ling nodded, "Let me make you a cup of milk powder and drink some to warm yourself up." After saying that, he opened the water glass just like a magic trick, and the water inside was already boiling hot.

This is an electric cup she bought before that can boil water and keep it warm. There is nothing wrong with it except that it is more expensive.

In surprise, her grandma made her a cup of milk powder. Yin Ling ate a piece of bread, a braised egg, and a pack of biscuits, and finally drank a cup of milk powder before stopping. She had consumed too much this night.

Yin Ling couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw his grandma staring at him and still hesitating to speak.

"Lingling, thank you for your hard work. If it hadn't been for you, I, an old woman, might still be in the house wondering about life and death!" Grandma began to describe the panic of the night after seeing that Yin Ling had eaten and drank enough.

Although I have seen many things in my old age, I have encountered such life and death difficulties several times, and I suddenly relaxed and did not start to be afraid.

"It's okay, it's all over, and here's me! Now I just need to eat and sleep well, and we'll talk about the rest tomorrow."

Although she could see that her grandma had nothing to say, it was already this hour and there was still some faint noise outside not far away. However, it was freezing cold at night and she was too tired tonight, so she didn’t want to pay more attention to it. No matter what, it can be expected that there will be more difficult things waiting for them next. She can only take care of herself and her grandmother first.

While comforting her grandmother, Yin Ling packed the water cups, snacks and other things she took out into her bag so that she could evacuate in time if something happened in the middle of the night.

After not sleeping well all night, Yin Ling was very alert and woke up every once in a while to take a look. During this period, someone was passing by on the road. It was so dark that he didn't notice that someone had set up a tent in the snow a few meters away from the road.

There were aftershocks one after another, but they were not big. Yin Ling just sat up and waited for the aftershocks to end before continuing to squint for a while.

Everyone woke up very early in the morning.

Yin Ling looked at her phone. It was not even five o'clock, but there were already a lot of sounds around her. I looked again and saw that there was still no signal or network on my mobile phone. It should be that a lot of infrastructure was damaged in the earthquake. It was only one night and the construction team must not have had time to rescue. I don’t know how wide the scope of this earthquake was and how large the affected area was. .

Yin Ling sat up and put away the sleeping bag, and her grandma also woke up. The elderly sleep less and shallower, and this night they were restless.

"Grandma, let's eat something first, and then I'll go out and see how everyone is doing." He still made milk powder, and then each of them ate some bread and sausages. Yin Ling mostly ate two packs of biscuits, and then boiled a glass of water. Just went out.

"Lingling, let me go with you."

"Grandma, please don't come out. The snow outside is too thick and it's hard to walk. It's cold. I can just go and see for myself."

After saying that, Yin Ling left the tent, zipped it up, thought about it, put on gloves, climbed over the wall and entered the yard, then climbed into the room where grandma was staying last night, and pulled out a bed from the fallen cabinet. I found two more black cotton clothes that seemed to belong to my uncle. One was put on my body, and the other was tied up with the quilt and slipped out.

"Grandma, I found clothes and quilts to lay down for you." Once the sleeping bag was put away, it was cool on the ground, and it was easy to get sick just sitting there.

In the small tent, there was first a thin blanket and then a thick quilt. Yin Ling asked her grandma to sit down, then folded the quilt over and covered her legs in half, and finally handed the two cotton-padded jackets to her grandma to let her cool down. Put on.

After settling down, grandma Yin Ling walked towards the east end of the village with a small shovel in her hand. Grandma's house is in the west direction of the village, and you can pass more houses by walking eastward.

It's not bright, but it doesn't hinder walking.

Yin Ling walked towards the place where there was a faint sound. The road was difficult to walk, with snow everywhere. Yin Ling struggled to move while wearing knee-high boots. Fortunately, half of the road was cleared two days ago, although that half of the road was covered with snow again last night. But it’s still better than snow falling more than one meter high.

After walking for less than five minutes, I met a group of people, about forty or fifty people.

"Uncle, aunt!"

Yin Ling called people from a distance. Although it was far away and it was dark and it was not bright, he could not recognize anyone, but it was always right to call people.

People in the distance were a little excited when they heard the sound, "Whose family does it belong to?"

"It's me, Yin Ling, the granddaughter of the Xie Shijun family!"

Xie Shijun is her grandfather. Although he has been dead for two years, everyone in the village is familiar with her. In addition, she has been running around in the village recently and everyone knows her.

"It's Ling girl! Are you okay? Where is your grandma!"

A woman with a loud voice opposite knew who it belonged to and asked quickly.

"My grandma is at home, let me come out and take a look!"

Speaking on both sides, Yin Ling speeded up and they soon joined together.

"Auntie Xie, where are you going?"

It was Auntie Xie who was a relative in the village. Although she was not familiar with her, she always called her based on her seniority.

"This is not just last night when the village called everyone to meet at the east end of the village. This early in the morning we arranged to go find the people who were not there last night. People from every household have gone to check on the situation. We are on the way here!"

Seeing everyone holding shovels, rakes, hammers, etc., Yin Ling knew that the rescue mode was on.

 I'm a bit busy, and I'm updating a lot, but I won't give up.
