173 Building a house, soaking in a pool

"I'll go over and have a look later, but I just heard you say that many residents want to build houses. I suggest not to build wooden houses. There shouldn't be many nails in the safe area now. The wooden houses must be strong if they are built. The amount of work is actually not small. I suggest

Make it an earth house or a stone house. Many houses in the desert are stone houses."

Wan Tao patted his forehead and said, "You really woke me up. Okay, fortunately there is no shortage of water now. We can just use the sand blown by the sandstorm. Many people can build mud houses."

"That's right, the house only needs one floor. Don't make it too high. It's best to use stone walls for the shed, which will make it stronger."

Wan Tao and Liu couldn't wait to go back and make plans. Ye Fu looked at Jiang Run and told him the surrounding situation.

"At least one year, this wind and sand will not stop, but in one year, there should be grass growing in a radius of tens or even hundreds of kilometers."

"As long as the temperature remains high, it shouldn't rain again," Jiang Run said.

"Yes, we still have to remind everyone to save water. If the ponds in the mountains suddenly dry up, it will be the end."

——

Ye Fu looked at the leaning building and finally understood why Wan Tao was in a hurry to get everyone out.

When the wind blew, the building swayed slightly, as if it was about to collapse in the next moment.

Officer Song and Qi Yuan both chose the address of their new house. Ye Fu and Jiang Run went there with hoes. When Wenwen saw her, she ran over crying.

"Sister Xiaoye, my lamb was blown away by the wind."

Ye Fu hugged her and comforted her gently, "Sister Xiaoye knows, my lamb will have a baby soon. Can Wenwen come and pick one in a few days?"

"I will never raise lambs again."

Ye Fu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It took him a long time to coax him.

Wan Tao told everyone about the advantages of earth houses and stone houses, but everyone changed their minds and started building earth houses one after another.

Ye Fu and Jiang Run came to help and finally built the earthen house before the building collapsed.

The temperature of 46 degrees Celsius is unbearable for adults. Many people faint within a few minutes just after going out to work. Heatstroke occurs every day.

Ye Fu was most worried about heat stroke. After she reminded Wan Tao, Wan Tao banged on the stainless steel and informed everyone that from now on, he would rest at home during the day and go out to work at night. At night, the temperature would drop by ten degrees.

Many children cannot stand the temperature and can hear crying during the day and night.

Ye Fu also took out two tower fans. The quilts in the room had already been put into the space, and a layer of mats was spread on the bed.

The bamboos in the safe area were being chopped down to make mats, and Ye Fu could only scatter a circle of seeds.

Other residents could only use buckets of cold water to put on their beds to cool down. The temperature continued to rise, and fewer and fewer people went out.

Ye Fu planted a row of cacti in the yard. When Lin Siran came over, he asked Ye Fu for some to take back and plant them. Cacti can easily survive in sandy soil, and there is no need to worry about exposure to the sun or lack of water.

There is still a lot of saltpeter in Ye Fu's space, which can be used to make ice, but she has no way to take it out.

The high temperature rose to forty-eight degrees, and Ye Fu couldn't stand it anymore.

"I want to soak in the water, Jiang Run. I feel like there is a fire in my body."

Ye Fu did as he was told, entered the bathroom, filled the tub with cold water, took off his coat and jumped directly into the water.

The refreshing cold water poured into his pores. Ye Fu felt that the heat in his body was extinguished and he felt comfortable all over.

She was unwilling to come out after soaking for an hour. Jiang Run knocked on the door several times. Ye Fu sighed and stood up from the water.

"You are weak and will get sick." Jiang Run reminded her outside the door. Ye Fu was about to cry but had no tears.

"But it's hot. It's so hot that I want to get angry and hit someone."

Jiang Run said nothing.

Two more pools were dug in the safety area, specifically for everyone to soak in water. Men and women are separated by a patch of grass.

It was because Wan Tao discovered that many children almost drowned when they swam in the fish ponds that he organized everyone to dig two more pools for soaking.

The pool was very shallow, only one meter deep and ten meters long. It took everyone two days and nights to dig it.

In the evening, Lin Siran came to ask Ye Fu to soak in the water, but she refused. Last time I passed by there, I saw a group of aunts rubbing their backs and feet in the water. Ye Fu didn't have any mysophobia, but she still couldn't stand it.

Ye Fu has a bad appetite recently. After the temperature rises to 40 degrees, she doesn't want to eat very much. She eats watermelon, drinks water, and eats shaved ice all day long. She doesn't want to smell any fishy meat. She feels like vomiting when she smells it. I don't know.

I thought she was pregnant.

"The high temperature is too painful." Ye Fu poured herself a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi water, and the smell was so intense that she rolled her eyes and her whole face was distorted.

"Are you going to drink?"

Jiang Run shook his head, "I haven't felt very hot yet."

"You are really not human." Ye helped him over and touched the back of his hand. This guy seemed to have a constant temperature function. When he was cold, his body would heat up, and when he was hot, his body would become cold.

She obviously has the ability to heal, so why didn't she receive his incredible ability to automatically regulate body temperature?

Ye Fu lay on her back on the mat, with three tower fans blowing at her.

The next day, Ye Fu was still sleeping, and someone called her crying outside. When Ye Fu walked out of the wooden house, he saw an elder sister who was out of breath crying.

"Doctor Ye, my husband has fainted, please save him."

Ye Fu had a bad premonition, so he went out with a broken black umbrella, ran all the way, and came to her house with the woman, where he saw a twitching man lying on the ground.

"He went out to work?"

"Some chickens ran away at home. He went to catch them, but he didn't catch the chickens, so he fainted. He fainted for a minute and woke up like this."

Ye Fu was very sure that the man had heat stroke. It was already 48 degrees Celsius and the sun was hanging high above his head. He would be sweating all over his body as long as he went out for a minute. Ye Fu was almost out of breath after walking all the way just now.

"Hurry up and give him some air and bring him a bucket of cold water."

At this time, the man was gasping for breath in pain, and his expression was not right anymore. Ye Fu took out the silver needle and was about to insert it, but the man tilted his head and lost his breath in an instant.

In less than half a minute, there was no time to even start rescue operations.

His body was as hot as the bottom of a hot pot. Ye Fu glanced at the woman and the little girl next to him, and said softly, "My condolences."

"Dr. Ye?"

"Your husband passed away."

The woman was stunned for a moment, threw away the bucket in her hand, rushed over, hugged the man and cried loudly.

Ye Fu left with an umbrella and passed by Wan Tao. He stood at the door and asked about the situation. Ye Fu told him everything.

"There is absolutely no time for first aid."

"I know, you should go back quickly. In the evening, I will organize a few people to help him deal with his funeral affairs."

Ye Fu looked back at the earthen house, then turned and left.
