(MTL) Natural Disaster Apocalypse

117-118

Jiang Xuan really wanted to do something, but Qin Huai's words blocked all his paths. He really wanted to report it. After some investigation, it was exactly as Qin Huai said, and he just bought everyone's remaining quota. If he saves for his own food, he will not fare well.

As for whether to eat it at home, you can tell from the meals that Qin Huai brought every day after dividing the meat, tomato meatball soup, green pepper shredded pork, and cumin meat pie, eat like this, let alone ten catties of meat, and a few more Ten catties might not be enough for their family to consume.

Many people know that Qin Huai doesn't eat at work. It is said that his younger brother felt that the food at work was not enough, and he was afraid that the weather would be too cold to handle it. That is to say, even if the amount of food served in the cafeteria is much larger than that in the greenhouse outside, they are still not full and fat.

Then he brought his own lunch box, and he was so greedy every day that his mouth watered like a river, so he said that the more than ten catties of meat were bought back for his own home to store up for food. For such a little meat, I violated discipline.

However, the stronger the contrast, the more Jiang Xuan was disturbed. His father froze to death, and his mother was still struggling in the greenhouse. He bought two meal cards for the greenhouse for his mother with some money. One meal card can only provide one meal a day. He didn't want his father to freeze to death and his mother to starve to death, so he just bought two.

Coupled with the fact that the temperature is too low now, it's okay to eat three meals a day for the relief meals distributed by the above. I also worry that my mother will be bullied if she lives alone in the greenhouse. He is far away and can't take care of it. It is inevitable that he will have to buy more things. Take care of the people who live in the bed next to his mother, and let them take more care of his mother. After spending so much, he doesn't have much money left.

This time he bought the meat together with others. He couldn't even afford half a catty. He only bought three taels of meat. He had to make dumplings in advance and take some of the meat to eat when he went to see his mother on vacation. Well, this can't be placed directly in the greenhouse, because few people in the greenhouse can afford meat, it's too eye-catching, and it will cause trouble.

In such a big environment, it is good for him to be able to do this, but the premise is that there is no contrast, and Qin Huai is that strong contrast.

Big white rice, lunch that is not repeated every day, and even a small pot of sauerkraut at his own expense for some sports competitions. The meat is more than ten catties when he buys it. The meat and vegetables here are full of tricks. The burden of production, looking at Qin Huai, you can know what kind of life Mu Nan lived at home. He lived in a house with heating, didn't have to starve or suffer from cold, and someone would protect him when the sky fell. Jiang Xuan hated this huge gap Itchy teeth.

In the past, Jiang Xuan was more or less able to pretend to cover up, but when the hatred in his heart became distorted, people would lose some reason. People often saw Jiang Xuan staring at Qin Huai with a sullen expression, and somehow felt a little scary, while If you have a good relationship with Qin Huai, of course you will tell him about it, at least let him know.

Qin Huai didn't care, he just told the story in a few words, and then the news spread naturally.

"I thought that people with twisted thinking like this could only be seen in weird TV dramas. I was short-sighted.

" I don't know what this guy is up to if he promises but doesn't do it, and cheats at both ends."

"It's kind of funny, asking him to help take care of the family, he's not happy, and he's still licking his face and blaming others for not giving him a house. Killing his father, I really don't understand this kind of brain circuit." "

I heard that Boss Qin's younger brother is not very young, and he will soon be an adult at that time, so he can live independently." "

Tsk, this is not independent or not . You can ignore the matter, but you can't lie to him. He obviously didn't care about his younger brother's life and death, but he still deceived Brother Qin into thinking that he took care of his younger brother, and thanked him for all kinds of help. He is abroad. For the holidays, you should send some gifts back anyway. If you don't do good things, you'll be rewarded." " Then

Boss Qin hasn't contacted his younger brother?

There are still some twists and turns inside, if you can contact, what about Jiang Xuan." "

This kind of person is a bit scary, double-faced."

A few people were chatting while resting in the tea room, and when they saw Jiang Xuan coming in, everyone silenced themselves, glanced at each other, and walked out with teacups in their hands.

Jiang Xuan's face turned pale immediately, he never knew that Qin Huai could be so shameless as to talk about family affairs everywhere, and these people are just like gossips!

Jiang Xuan, who was making tea alone in the tea room, suddenly felt that the scene in front of him was a bit familiar, and he didn't remember it until he sat back in his seat. Didn't the scene just now mean that he had forced an intern in his previous company? Live scene?

That intern is also the kind who looks white and harmless. Although he doesn't look like Mu Nan at all, his lively and smiling temperament is very similar to Mu Nan's when he was a child. They bullied him in the same way.

Rumors don't need evidence, just fabricated images are enough. He even prepared several plans, but they were useless because the little intern left without staying for a month. He was still thinking, just like this The glass heart that can't stand the blow at all, how can I mess around in the workplace, I didn't expect that the object of discussion in the tea room now turned out to be him.

So when Jiang Xuan directly ridiculed Qin Huai for his little ability, Qin Huai just glanced at him indifferently and then ignored him. Half a lie.

The meat from their unit is delivered first, and they are also considered government units, so they have this kind of welfare. When the meat from their side is delivered, the official shopping website will stock it. Although Mu Nan knows that Qin Huai has bought a lot , but also keep the goods on the shelves.

His family has meat, so he can help his neighbors to grab it. If there are too many monks and no porridge, if he doesn't get any, he will just buy a few catties from his brother and give it to his neighbors. Anyway, his family is not short of meat, so it's not good for them to eat meat. , the good friends around him can't even eat meat scraps, the contrast gap is too big, and he feels sorry for himself.

The price of meat is not cheap, but there are still a lot of people robbing it. Mu Nan was lucky enough to grab a catty, and he only got one catty. Pay the money and go to see it, it is already sold out, so don't look at the many people dying of cold and starvation, there are quite a few people who are able to eat meat at this time.

Mu Nan posted the screenshot of the snatch to the group: "Who wants it?"

The neighbors are giving in to each other. Their conditions are not bad. They all have thousands of people, but if they have money and no goods, they will be bald. Wu Zheng He was the first one to post in the group, he took a screenshot, he was faster than Mu Nan, bought two catties, Song Jia said in the group: "I have it at home, if you don't want it, I want more One catty is fine too."

Yu Zibai also sent a screenshot, he snatched one catty, Jian Chu didn't grab it, Xu Ming's hand poking his phone was not good enough, so he didn't grab it, and it just so happened that Mu Nan could make this one catty Give it to Xu Ming, so that every family can have meat to eat.

It's a pity that Jian Chu is still in the group: "There is too little meat, so we can only save and eat slowly, otherwise we can barbecue and skewer."

Mu Nan said in the group: "Don't think about it, eat meat secretly, and even barbecue , the smell of cumin is very fragrant, and I am not afraid of being snatched."

Except for the meat, the whole place of residence was very happy for a period of time, just like Chinese New Year. Well, it's still bad news, the top is going to conscript.

The advantage of conscription is that you don't need to eat, you only need to train, and even depending on the current situation, many important government jobs in the future may be selected from the army, but the downside is that if there is another extreme weather change, They are the ones who need risky rescue. In short, both benefits and risks coexist.

In their yard, a few of them didn't have jobs and didn't even think about serving as soldiers, but the others were already over the age limit, and the only one who was still within the age limit, Mu Nan, didn't think so. According to what Mu Nan told Qin Huai, he I have not yet realized the consciousness of taking up this sacred profession.

Qin Huai just chuckled lightly at his beautifying words: "To put it bluntly, I can't bear hardships and can't stand restraint."

Mu Nan jumped on Qin Huai's body and covered his mouth: "Believe it or not, I'll apply and leave you crying in the room!"

Qin Huai squeezed his thin arms and legs, expressing that he wasn't worried at all. Physique, even if you are old enough, people probably won't want it.

As soon as the news of the conscription was released, many people's attention was diverted from the cold weather. Even the gloomy atmosphere in the greenhouse, which was shrouded in cold and death, changed slightly, and became more active. The change in the overall environment also made Many people have regained some vigor, and are no longer in the posture of resigning to their fate and waiting to die.

Now the age requirements for conscription have been relaxed a bit. You can only be sixteen years old, and the upper limit is twenty-four years old. If you exceed this age, one will not be able to keep up physically, and the other will be less obedient. There are many young men who are just right. I lost my loved ones, and I was left alone, living a life of confusion and no purpose. As soon as the news of the conscription was released, it seemed that I had found the motivation to live, and the depression in my body was swept away.

And some simply feel that this kind of life can't go on, it's better to be a soldier, at least there is an organization with a head, and it also takes care of the food, carrying bricks consumes no less energy than being a soldier, maybe in the future. Can assign work. Of course, there are also some who go there with yearning. After the catastrophe, they also want to become the bright existence that they saw in the dark night.

Regardless of the reason, many people filled out the letter of intent, which also made the above people feel a little relieved. There are fewer people now. After a province has gone through these disasters, the number of survivors may not even be half. There are too many deaths. Compared with disasters, what really wears people down is spiritual willpower. Now there are so many people willing to join the army, which proves that the spirit of the people in this country has not been completely worn out. This is the most gratifying point.

Two consecutive events that could be said to be related to people's livelihood dispelled some of the cold, and when people came back to their senses, they found that the weather outside had changed again. The gloomy snowstorm that lasted for several days seemed to have passed. also stopped.

Although the change is not very obvious in terms of body feeling, but there are detailed observation data above, the current temperature is slowly increasing by a few tenths of a degree every day. Many people think this is a signal that winter is about to pass, and even many places have started to step up construction, trying to build houses when the weather is clear despite the cold, so that those who live in greenhouses have nowhere to go, Have a place to settle down as soon as possible.

After the snowstorm, Da Niu and the others also moved here. They couldn't come here before because the wind and snow outside made it difficult to even move. Now that the weather is clearing up, it's better to come here earlier, and live in a heated room. It's better than living in that kind of collective greenhouse.

Although Mu Nan and the others didn't have much contact with Daniel, they still got along well with the neighbors in the short period of time, so on the day Daniel moved here, they also discussed giving some things, and it was considered a housewarming. Nan's family sent two catties of bean shreds, but Jian Chu and the others had nothing else to give away. Thinking that Daniel had just come here, the conditions were limited, so they sent two catties of big steamed buns. In the past, as for Song Jia, they didn't know Daniel, so there was no need to spend money.

Anyway, such a small amount of food can feed Daniel for at least a week. After he lives in a stable place, he can go to find a job. Some people are suitable for entering the army, with a suitable physique and personality, simple and honest, straightforward, and less thoughtful, so they are not suitable for the simple environment of the army.

Mu Nan counted the days, when the outside temperature rose to over minus 20 degrees after more than half a month, he moved back to the third floor. With the whole house under heating, the outside temperature is not too low, and the inside of the house can be warm. Many people only wore a thin piece of clothing, and even experienced the cold of nearly minus 70 degrees. Many people felt that it was minus 20 degrees, and they could run wild outside in a sweater.

Only when there is contrast can there be happiness. Since the temperature has warmed up, Mu Nan can hear some children screaming and laughing at home every day. It is rare to come out to play, and such deep snow is really a lifetime for people in the south. I have never seen it.

The snow in the south is actually very different from the snow in the north. The snow in the north is like fine sand, which is dry and not sticky to grasp, while the snow in the south is sticky and wet. How can there be such dry sand? The general fine snow is fun. Although they are in the south now, the snow has hardly stopped throughout the winter, and there is not much humidity, so it is rare to see this kind of fine sand and white snow.

Mu Nan sat on the bay window in the bedroom, holding a cup of hot cocoa and looking at the children playing outside, he really wanted to go out to play, but unfortunately no one was with him, seeing that the snow in the yard hadn't been shoveled out today, Mu Nan I couldn't help but change my clothes, and simply built a snowman in the yard. It was minus 20 degrees and the sun, which can be described as warm.

Xu Ming, who was also moving upstairs, had just remade the bed when he turned around and saw Mu Nan making a snowman in the yard, smiled and changed his clothes and went downstairs: "So childlike?" Mu Nan turned her

head Seeing that it was Xu Ming, he also smiled and said, "Come out while the weather is good." It's going to be hot soon, if you don't take the opportunity to play with the snow, you won't have a chance this year, and he doesn't know what will happen next year. .

Xu Ming said: "I'll be with you. I'll find some charcoal to make eyes."

After a while, Niuniu also ran out of the house. Although Wu Zheng didn't come out, he probably wanted to let Niuniu out. Let Niuniu let the air out. When it is so cold, shutting up in the house for a month will make the dog suffer from depression.

As soon as Niuniu rushed out, she threw Mu Nan into the snowdrift. This was the shit-shoveling officer who had raised it for a while, and it still remembered, so the first one to get close was Mu Nan.

Mu Nan fell into the snowdrift and laughed, and Yu Zibai upstairs opened a window to take a picture of the commotion in the yard and sent it to the small group.

Qin Huai was eating, and when he saw the video, he clicked on it to check it out. When he saw Mu Nan playing in the snow outside, when Niuniu threw him on him, he could still faintly hear laughter, which made him laugh unconsciously too.

Zhang Qi, who was sitting next to Qin Huai, couldn't help but smile and turn his head to look at the voice when he heard the voice: "This is Brother Qin's younger brother, right?"

Qin Huai hummed, and said with a smile: "You are too old to play in the snow." As he said this, he put down his chopsticks and sent a message in the group, telling Yu Zibai to watch for some time, don't play for too long , After playing for a long time, remember to call him upstairs.

Yu Zibai responded in the group, and then shouted downstairs: "Mu Nan, your brother told you not to play for too long!"

Mu Nan turned to look upstairs: "Got it!" He is like a three-year-old kid.

When Qin Huai and the others came home from get off work, there were already four snowmen piled up in the yard, two on each side, like guards on duty, so they had to pay attention to the left and right sides when driving in, for fear of scratching the snowmen.

Several girls got off the car directly in the yard, and said, "These men in our yard are really childlike."

Sun Sisi ran directly between the two snowmen: "Come and take a picture for me.

" Yang Jing slapped his head and said, "The temperature outside is so low, the phone has already turned off automatically."

Hu Xuan, who was gentle and quiet, took out her phone silently and took a picture for Sun Sisi. The others turned their heads to look at him, and Hu Xuan shrugged. : "The domestic machine, the temperature is only minus 20 degrees, no problem."

Several people took turns to take photos with the snowman, four snowmen with four expressions, until the vehicle had been put into storage, and it took half a day to wait for the sisters to enter the Tujuan station Shouting at the door of the house: "You guys can't come back yet!"

The three girls ran into the house with smiles on their faces.

The ice and snow are gradually melting, and people don't know whether everything will recover, but they cherish this rare and normal temperature.

When the temperature returned to zero, a large number of survivors came outside again, and some of Mu Nan's familiar faces were those who had been to the private base together in the previous life. The base hadn't even survived a winter before it was destroyed. If it wasn't for the wind and snow blocking the road, and there were no rescue vehicles to patrol later, they would have defected here long ago.

Now that they have survived a winter, seeing that the temperature has reached the level where they can go out, they are afraid that there will be some changes if they delay, so they walked over in groups on foot.

At the beginning, they left early, and the place where the private resort was located was also outside the sparsely populated third ring road, so despite some twists and turns, at least they were not trapped in the center of the urban area, which was considered lucky. Now they took a detour from that resort, even though the snow on the ground had gradually melted and the temperature was not too extreme, they had traveled for nearly half a month.

They started to set off when the wind and snow stopped and the temperature was more than 30 degrees below zero. It got hotter and hotter as they walked. By the time they arrived here, a lot of snow had melted, and even the greenhouse had been repacked into a planting shed. .

Those who came from behind have to be isolated and observed. There are at least several hundred people transferred from there. The number is not small. All of them are hungry and cold. They can only settle in the observation room outside the residential area and wait for isolation. During this period, they have to study According to the rules and regulations of Xincheng, identity registration is required after the quarantine period is over. The government can advance the rent of small cabins for people to live in temporarily, but they have to work to pay back later.

All of this has been experienced by Mu Nan, but now, he doesn't have to live in an outer city until the quarantine period passes, and the higher-ups will notify them that they can get vaccinated according to batches.

Until now, the city center is still full of plagues. Those viruses were not killed by the extreme cold, but took away countless innocent lives. However, no matter how extreme the environment was, there were still some survivors, many of whom still brought Therefore, in order to prevent the plague from spreading again as the temperature rises, it is first necessary to ensure that healthy people are vaccinated to form antibodies.

Vaccines are administered in a hospital that was built later, and there is a notification on the time of vaccination. According to the notification time, there was no need to queue for too long in the past. Although it may not be the case now, everyone who has been vaccinated has been told Do not drink alcohol for three days. Mu Nan came out according to the needle's eye. In order not to take off his clothes, he deliberately wore a jacket with a huge neckline under the down jacket. Pulling it down can directly reveal half of the body, and it also saves the trouble of taking off the clothes.

Qin Huai lost the visa exemption, and seeing Mu Nan coming out of it, he stepped forward and tightened his untied down jacket: "Does it hurt?"

Mu Nan said: "Fortunately, it doesn't hurt if you don't look at it."

Facing his evasive way of shielding the pain, Qin Huai smiled: "Go back and cook something delicious for you."

Mu Nan's eyes lit up: "Oil Stewed prawns?"

Qin Huai said ruthlessly, "I just got vaccinated and had a bland diet for three days."

Mu Nan rolled his eyes and said, "Then you still said to make something delicious for me." "

I can make you a clear pot skewer "

Mu Nan snorted: "I choose not to eat."

When the temperature started to rise, it climbed up almost once a day, and when everyone in their yard had been vaccinated, the temperature had already reached more than ten degrees. Yes, it's so warm, the floor heating has been turned off long ago, and I can even open the windows to enjoy the natural wind at night, which is very comfortable.

But as the temperature rises, some problems have become serious.

For example, Mu Nan, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly shook his head several times and got up from the bed. Qin Huai hurriedly turned on the light: "What's the matter?"

Mu Nan rubbed his ears, and said with the irritability of being woken up: "There were mosquitoes just now. Whispering past my ears."

Qin Huai got up from the bed, the windows of their room were screened, but the door was not closed for ventilation, and there were vegetables growing outside, I don't know if it was because of this that attracted mosquitoes. After checking the house, no mosquitoes were found flying, but Qin Huai still asked Mu Nan to bring out a plate of mosquito coils and ordered a mosquito net.

Mu Nan was so drowsy that he couldn't help but said, "Just light a mosquito coil."

Qin Huai said, "It's okay, soon, you sleep first, and I'll put up the mosquito net."

Mu Nan had no choice but to take out the mosquito net, but The one I took was relatively simple, that is, like a vegetable cover, erect the four sides one by one, and then cover the bed.

Qin Huai smoked the place where they slept with moxibustion sticks. Now that the windows are open for ventilation, the smoke from the moxibustion sticks will dissipate quickly, so it doesn't matter if you use them indoors. Put the unburnt moxibustion sticks away At the door, a plate of mosquito-repellent incense was smoked beside the bed, and after half an hour of tossing and turning off the lights, they went back to sleep, but such a tossing really worked well, and Mu Nan was not woken up by mosquitoes again in the middle of the night.

They have the conditions, so they sleep soundly. Those without mosquito nets and mosquito coils are tortured by these mosquitoes.
