Fog Survival

Chapter 68 Cold Current Trend

Qi Yuan only knew their names after the two arrived.

The older one was called Chu Wenxi, 26 years old, more mature, and was originally a civil servant.

The younger one was the girl who had been gossiping about him, only 19 years old, named Zhou Yue, and was originally a student.

When they first arrived at Qi Yuan's shelter, they were immediately attracted.

The 100-square-meter large yard and the same-sized shelter cabins were much larger than their own shelters.

Even compared to Lu Zhipeng's shelter, it was more than twice as spacious.

Not only the shelter itself, but also there were many animals active in the yard.

Several huge beehives were hung on the tree trunks beside the fence, surrounded by many bee colonies, "buzzing" around.

Occasionally, bees would fly out of the fence to look for food outside.

In the animal pen, a pheasant with colorful feathers walked around leisurely, pecking at the food on the ground from time to time.

A closer look revealed that the pheasant and the others seemed to eat the same food every day.

In addition, there was a huge wild boar two meters tall, lying in the animal pen, snorting and twitching its tail from time to time, looking very leisurely.

The two were so surprised when they saw this scene that they were speechless.

They had never thought that humans could develop such a large-scale shelter in such a short time and have so many rich resources.

Compared with the small wooden house where they lived, it was completely two different worlds.

"Sister Xi, what level of shelter is this? Why is it so big?"

"It should be level 4... It is said that he is one of the top 10,000 people in the world, and the best-developed group..."

"So amazing."

"Indeed..."

Seeing the two standing in the yard in a daze, Qi Yuan shouted helplessly: "Don't be in a daze, come here quickly."

"Oh oh."

The two hurriedly responded and ran over.

Qi Yuan took them to the workshop and handed them the charcoal making scroll, asking them to learn from it.

The process of making charcoal is much simpler than the healing potion, as long as you control the time.

As long as the two are not stupid, they can easily complete it after trying a few more times.

Now there are still 40,000 units of ordinary-grade wood in the shelter, which need them to make charcoal.

Good-grade wood can be exchanged for spirit coins, so Qi Yuan made a plan to stop making good-grade charcoal in the future.

Because for the system, even if the wood is made into charcoal, it will not increase its value. After all, no matter how the wood changes, the internal spiritual power remains unchanged.

After the two of them read the process, they can start working.

However, with two strangers in the shelter, Qi Yuan will not be completely at ease, and he must take some precautions.

In a place where the two of them can't see, two black tiger bees the size of an adult's fist are silently watching them.

Once they do something out of line, they will immediately notify Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan has told the two that they are only allowed to move in four places: the living room, the workshop, the bathroom, and the kitchen.

Once there is any overstepping of behavior, the black tiger bees will immediately be alert and go to inform Qi Yuan.

This is considered an insurance measure.

In addition, Qi Yuan has already contacted Yang Zhenghe and Zhao Cheng to continue to provide charcoal transactions.

Provide 3,000 units of ordinary charcoal to each of them every day.

Zhao Cheng still uses white pine sand and ice crystals to buy.

Yang Zhenghe paid with 500 units of good-grade wood.

With this calculation, the income for one day is about 150 spirit coins.

This income can be maintained until the cold wave is completely over.

...

Two days later.

During these two days, the cold wave is still raging, and there is some light snow, and the weather is still very cold.

However, the cold wave has recovered, and the overall temperature has improved slightly.

During these days, the four people in the secondary shelter made ice cubes, and the number of ice cubes reached more than 500, but only filled up a small area of ​​the basement.

Qi Yuan planned to fill half of the basement with ice cubes. Only a walking passage in the middle was left for easy access.

All ice-making workers still have to continue.

Zhou Yue and Chu Wenxi were responsible for making charcoal, and the process was also smooth without any accidents.

The two worked in the workshop during the day, and slept on thick carpets and quilts by the fireplace in the living room at night.

They searched the shelter of several people in front of them. There was no shortage of ordinary warm-keeping items. They just took some and used them.

The two of them could work for about 12 hours a day and could barely make 6,000 units of charcoal, just enough to sell.

At this time, Qi Yuan really felt that free labor was really good!

He didn't have to do anything, and the spirit coins came in.

However, Qi Yuan didn't treat them badly. Food and drink were fully supplied, and even good-grade food was provided sometimes.

In the past few days, Qi Yuan continued to live an orderly life, taking care of the shelter, exercising, practicing archery, and occasionally browsing the forum.

...

On the 15th day of the cold wave, there was finally a big surprise.

The sky finally dawned!

The night gradually faded away, and the sun shone down again, shining on the white snow on the ground, which looked crystal clear and bright, and the whole world was bright.

"The sun is coming out?!" Qi Yuan felt the light outside the window and immediately looked over in surprise.

Qi Yuan never thought that he would be so excited to see the sun.

Having been used to the long darkness, Qi Yuan couldn't help squinting his eyes when he suddenly saw the dazzling sunlight. He couldn't look directly at the world outside the window.

The eternal night ended, and it seemed that the cold wave was about to end!

At this moment, all the survivors cheered and jumped for joy, as if they saw the hope of survival.

For a whole half month, most of the survivors were not well fed and clothed, and the stored supplies were very few, and they were about to start eating.

If the cold wave didn't end, many people would not be able to hold on.

Qi Yuan took out the "Mist Survival Manual" and looked at the total number of people in the forum. He found that it had dropped from 5.3 billion in the early stage of the cold wave to 4 billion.

It's hard to say whether it's sad or fortunate.

It's sad, after all, hundreds of millions of survivors died, and they died in a corner of the mist world without being known.

I am thankful because this fierce cold wave disaster only took away the lives of 1.3 billion people.

Qi Yuan originally thought that most survivors could not resist the super low temperature cold wave of minus 60℃.

It is speculated that after this cold wave, the total number of survivors may be directly cut in half.

But the fact is that many people survived tenaciously.

5.3 billion people, 1.3 billion people died, which is about 24%, which is still within an acceptable range.

"Alas, don't let too many people die. If in the end, there are only a few tens of thousands of people left in the entire foggy world, that would be really terrible..."

Qi Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

If there is really a day when there are only a few tens of thousands of people left in a civilization, then life... can still find new hope?

Qi Yuan looked at the sunlight in the sky, and his eyes gradually adapted to the light.

Seeing the two or three meters high snow layer outside the wall, he suddenly wilted.

How long will this snow layer melt? It will take at least a day or two to melt!

I can only wait a few more days until the snow is less, and then find a way to go out.

But at this time, there is a problem that must be faced.

Flood! !

Once such a large amount of snow melts and turns into snow water, it will inevitably cause a large-scale flood disaster, which is more terrible than a cold wave.

But this is also strange to Qi Yuan.

The prophecy scroll shows that the next disaster will be high temperature. This shows that the flood will not cause too much disaster.

Or, the flood will not happen?

No matter which guess is made, Qi Yuan needs to make enough preparations for possible disasters.
