Chapter 657: Winter is Coming
What's wrong?
Everyone was startled at first, and suddenly felt a cold air approaching. Then they realized that the cold air that was always hanging in the sky might have completely descended on the deserted island.
"Go check the heater. It doesn't matter if the light bulb is not replaced."
Anyway, everyone can see at night, and the cold wave has just begun to fall on the deserted island. Keeping warm is the key.
After everyone walked around, when they returned to the cave, they felt that the temperature had not risen, and wisps of cold air fell from the quilt covering their heads, feeling that there was some danger.
"It's freezing to death!" Anna breathed a sigh of relief, and a layer of ice crystals gradually appeared in the air.
There was no other way, so everyone turned on some of the heaters that had been stored, and the temperature in the underground space slowly rose again.
The water in the thermos cup has become warm, but only three or four hours have passed, and the temperature has cooled too quickly.
"Boil some more water, otherwise the thermos cup will be frozen when you wake up at night."
"Well, in two hours, boil the water again before going to bed."
After dinner, no one wanted to go to bed because it was too cold, so Tang Xin suggested watching a movie to kill some time.
Here, Ouyang Qing and Han Shuyi have just made French fries with tomato juice, which can be used as a snack.
Yang Jian also took out a bottle of Remy Martin from the box, and everyone drank a little. As a result, the feeling of dizziness made them temporarily forget about the cold.
"I feel so dizzy." Yu Mengrou covered her head and leaned her head on Song Xiaoyou's body, saying confusedly: "Why did I see two Song Xiaoyous?"
Song Xiaoyou also blushed and saw double images in everything she looked at.
Anna leaned against Yang Jian's body and said, "Tell me, did you put drugs in the wine?"
"Why is my head so dizzy?"
Yang Jian looked at Anna who was so close. He could clearly feel her explosive figure, but he was also dizzy and secretly wondered if the Remy horse had expired.
I insisted on watching the whole movie, and many people helped me to the cubicle to sleep. This night, it seemed particularly quiet.
At this moment, the deserted island seems to have a layer of gauze, gently covering every corner.
Early the next morning, Yang Jian had a headache and opened his eyes. He felt sore all over his body. When he looked carefully, he found that he had slept in a wheelchair all night. No wonder he felt so uncomfortable.
"Hey, I drank too much." Yang Jian felt cold again, but the heaters around him were all running, and there was no power outage or failure to work.
Therefore, the temperature in the cave is still roughly maintained at about five degrees.
Yang Jian tried to stand up from the wheelchair. This time, he found that he could stand firmly and walk a few steps.
"It should be better after a while." Yang Jian exhaled. The feeling of sitting in a wheelchair is really not good. It is as uncomfortable as sleeping for a long time.
At nine o'clock, people started to wake up in the cubicle. In fact, it was Rourou's crying that woke them up.
As a result, everyone seemed a little silent as they recalled the drunken scene last night, mainly out of embarrassment.
"How about going outside and taking a look?" Yang Jian said.
After some discussion, everyone decided to go out at noon. I'm afraid the temperature is still very low, and the door to the crypt seems to be frozen and cannot be opened.
In this way, they waited until noon. After everyone had lunch, Tang Xin pushed Yang Jian to the crypt and saw You Li and the others burning the iron door with a flamethrower. The gaps were completely frozen by the water vapor.
A minute later, the iron door was opened, with a lot of water vapor coming out.
When you first see it, there are white ice crystals outside the cave. The snow is not very thick, but the nearby forest is completely covered with a layer of ice. It feels like a whole new world.
In the air, you can still see some ice crystals, which are as big as ashes. After being inhaled into the human body, you can feel a sting in your nose, trachea, and lungs.
However, compared to yesterday, the air today is still acceptable.
After walking out of the cave and looking at the ice crystals nearby, everyone even wondered if they were snowflakes.
"It must be caused by the cold wave. It's too cold." Moloy shrank her neck. Wearing two down jackets, she couldn't stand the temperature here.
The same goes for everyone else. In such a harsh environment, ordinary people have no way to go out very far.
At this moment, the sky is not blue, but still has a touch of gray.
"It's February now. I guess the cold winter won't pass so quickly."
Song Xiaoyou looked up at the sky. The cold current was no longer visible. It disappeared yesterday.
"The cold wave disappeared so quickly." Anna muttered from the side.
However, thinking that everyone was so drunk last night that they simply forgot about the cold wave. If the power suddenly ran out last night, it would be a disaster and they might freeze to death underground.
After walking around in the forest near the crypt, everyone discovered that ice crystals began to rain from the sky again. When they fell on top of their heads, they felt numb all over.
"It's better to go back quickly, the ice crystal is too cold." Several women put on their hats and urged them to go home.
Before re-entering the crypt, Molloy collected some ice crystals and brought them back to the laboratory.
For several days, the north wind was still howling on the desert island, and the snowflakes were no longer individual ones, but ice crystals flying in the wind.
Every day, the entrances and exits of burrows and caves are blocked by ice. This kind of ice crystals penetrates everywhere, and sometimes their traces are even in the air of caves.
Because of this, Rourou developed a high fever, reaching 40 degrees. Women were worried that if this continued, their brains would be burned out.
Although drugs can treat it, there is a lack of drugs for infants.
After facing several types of antipyretics and repeated deliberation, Molloy diluted some of the medicines and put them into Rourou's mouth in the form of drops.
On the second night of the fever, the high fever in my body finally subsided a little, and my big bright eyes flickered, and I regained some of my liveliness.
"Let's not give her medicine yet." Molloy said: "It is better to let her body produce antibodies. Otherwise, her health will not be very good when she grows up."
Everyone is worried and hopes Rourou can recover as soon as possible.
The temperature in the cave was still very cold. The women tried to light a fire and found that the flame was actually warmer than the heater, but it could not last long. It could heat up in a short time, but it could not be maintained continuously.
And air pollution is also a big problem, because the ventilation holes are not very big, and they are also to prevent ice and snow from entering the hole.
That evening, the temperature of the meat finally subsided.
"You can have a good sleep tonight." Yu Mengrou stretched out, her graceful figure highlighted. She didn't sleep all night last night and had to take Rourou's temperature every hour.
Now that the temperature has dropped, it means that Rourou will not have a fever again in a short time.
Others also breathed a sigh of relief. In the past two days, they have closed the entrances and exits again and blocked the gaps with cement so that no more ice crystals can come in for the time being.
