After all the fruits and vegetables are canned, the dark period of Titan Continent has officially entered its 28th day.
The continuous darkness caused the overall temperature in the Titan continent to drop below freezing.
The temperature is so cold!
It feels like the world at this moment is like a huge refrigerator. All life is like frozen meat in the refrigerator. Sooner or later, it will be frozen into ice lumps.
Since he had been busy processing canned food and cooking pots all the time, Lin Shuhang did not feel cold. On the contrary, he was sweating from exhaustion.
After all the fruits and vegetables were processed, Lin Shuhang felt a chill after taking some time off.
"The weather in this shitty day is so damn cold!" Lin Shuhang was shivering from the cold, and couldn't help cursing: "This is a pace that will freeze people to death!"
"Haha, can you not be cold?" the audience outside the venue reminded: "You are still shirtless! If you don't freeze, who are you freezing? Look at the crazy general, covered in thick bear fur, he doesn't feel the cold."
This sentence reminded Lin Shuhang, and then he realized that he was only focusing on storing supplies for the winter, and he was still shirtless! Now that he was free, the wind blew, and he shivered from the cold.
"Oops!" Lin Shuhang slapped his head: "I was so busy storing supplies that I forgot to make clothes to wear!"
Lin Shuhang hurried to "Ice Pit No. 1" where animal carcasses were stored. He found several beast carcasses with thick fur inside, peeled them off with a bone knife, and made animal skin clothing for winter use.
Animal skin clothing has a very good thermal insulation effect and is very simple to make.
I had just made my own animal skin clothing for winter, and suddenly the first snowflakes in millions of years fell in the dark sky.
"It's snowing!"
Looking at the crystal snowflakes falling on his palm, Lin Shuhang looked a little dazed, not knowing whether to be happy or depressed.
"Roar!" The crazy general on the side yelled excitedly. This could not help but surprise the crazy general, because this was the first time in his life that he had seen such a wonderful thing as snowflakes.
"It's hard to imagine that it can snow on Titan continent?"
Looking at the falling snowflakes, Lin Shuhang frowned: "I don't know how long this snow will last..."
"It doesn't matter how long it lasts!" an audience outside the venue said: "Anyway, you and the crazy general have stored enough food. Even if this heavy snow falls for 100 years, you will not starve to death."
"That's what I said, but I don't want to stay in a cave all my life." Lin Shuhang said to the live broadcast camera: "That will make me crazy!"
"Haha, there is nothing we can do about it. At least you and the crazy general will have enough food and clothing here. You won't be hungry or cold."
"Yes, anchor, just be content! You must know that there are many creatures on the Titan continent now who not only have no food, but also no place to spend the winter!"
Those outside the audience were right. Now on the Titan Continent, almost all creatures are in a state of hunger and cold. They need food, but they don’t have anything to eat, they don’t have clothes to wear, and they don’t have a place to live.
A place to live.
The previous super earthquake caused by a meteorite hitting the earth turned the entire surface of the Titan continent upside down.
The earth is cracking, mountains are collapsing, rivers are flowing backwards, and forests are falling...
In that terrible earthquake, more than 80% of the surviving life on the Titan continent lost their homes.
Now that winter has arrived and it is snowing heavily, many lives will surely die in the wild.
Lin Shuhang didn't want to talk too much about this topic. He sighed and said to the live broadcast camera: "Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. Go to sleep! I've been very sleepy for a while. I want to catch up on my sleep."
In order to store supplies for the winter, Lin Shuhang and Crazy General had not had a good rest for nearly a month. Now that the ice age has officially arrived, and they have collected enough supplies for the winter as they wished, once their tired hearts relax, they feel sleepy.
The idea came over me overwhelmingly.
"I want to sleep for three days and three nights!"
After saying this, Lin Shuhang jumped down into the pit, found a place in the pit, fell down and fell asleep. After a while, the sound of snoring started to sound.
"This anchor falls asleep pretty quickly!"
"Can you hurry up?" one audience member said, "I haven't had a good rest for nearly a month."
Here, Lin Shuhang was already fast asleep, while on the other side, the Crazy General was rolling excitedly on the snow. This was the first time it had seen such a thing as snow, and it couldn't help but make it feel excited.
After probably sleeping for two or three hours, Lin Shuhang woke up.
It was not because his biological clock was out of order, but because the weather was too cold and he woke up from the cold.
"Oops? Anchor, why did you wake up?"
"Yeah, didn't you say you wanted to sleep for three days and three nights? Why did you wake up after only two or three hours?"
"I don't want to wake up either!" Lin Shuhang hugged his arms and said tremblingly: "But the weather is so cold that I can't sleep. It's like sleeping in a refrigerator. My brain hurts from the cold!"
"The place where you spend the winter doesn't have any heating facilities. If you don't freeze, who will you freeze?"
"Yeah, why don't you install some heating facilities when it's cold?"
"Heating facilities?" Lin Shuhang was stunned. The first thing he thought of was air conditioning. However, air conditioning is a thing of modern civilization, and this is a barren prehistoric world!
I feel that the stove is more reliable.
Lin Shuhang nodded: "In such a cold day, we really should build a stove to keep warm, otherwise we really won't be able to sleep."
However, the biggest disadvantage of the stove is that it requires constant management.
"Why are you building a stove?" Some viewers said: "The heating effect of the stove is not very good, and it also wastes carbon. You should build a fire pit! The heating effect of this kind of heating facility is tens of millions of times better than that of a stove."
"Yes, in our north, fire pits are a magical tool for overwintering! No matter how cold the weather is, as long as there is a fire pit, you won't be able to freeze."
"Southerners prefer beds, while northerners prefer kangs." Fire kang is a heating and sleeping facility invented by residents in northern areas to adapt to the cold climate.
This is a masonry structure with a hollow heating facility inside.
In northern China, winter is cold and long, with the lowest temperature reaching over 30 degrees below zero!
It's more than 30 degrees below zero. What's the concept? For example, in this kind of weather, bananas are so hard that you can hammer a nail, and jelly eggs require a hammer.
If a glass of boiling water at 100 degrees is poured into the air, it will freeze instantly before it hits the ground.
To put it bluntly, you have to bring a stick with you when you go out to pee.
In order to survive the cold winter, residents living in this area invented the magical heating facility called fire pit.
This kind of heating facility is, to put it bluntly, a "brick bed" that can store hot air inside.
The "brick bed" is hollow inside and covered with relatively flat stone slabs. The stone slabs are covered with wet mud and smoothed. After the mud is dry, a kang mat can be spread on it and it can be used.
There are stove openings and smoke vents on the outside of the kang. The stove opening is used to burn firewood. The smoke and heat generated by burning firewood can heat the stone slabs, causing the kang to generate heat. The smoke is finally discharged outside through the chimney through the chimney.
Frugality is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. In order to save wood resources to the greatest extent, the stove mouth of the kang is usually connected to the stove in the kitchen. The advantage of this is that the kang can be heated while cooking without having to burn it separately.
Kang. As long as you eat and boil water, the Kang will be hot, which is very energy-saving.
The kang surface of the fire pit is generally made of bricks, stone slabs, and mud.
Since bricks, slates, and adobe are poor conductors of heat, the temperature of the kang will last for a long time after it is heated, so sleeping on the kang is very comfortable in winter.
It has to be said that these off-site spectators are like behind-the-scenes strategists, always able to provide Lin Shuhang with good suggestions and ideas at critical moments.
Under the guidance of the audience outside the venue, Lin Shuhang began to build a heated kang in the huge pit.
The construction work of the fire pit is not complicated, because there are many huge stones in the pit, and these stones can be used to replace the bricks. In addition, there is no shortage of soil and stone slabs.
However, the amount of this project is very large. After all, Lin Shuhang is 100 meters tall, and the crazy general also spends the winter in the fire pit, so the length of the fire pit must be at least 120 meters to 150 meters.
Fortunately, there was enough space in this pit. With the help of the crazy general, Lin Shuhang made a super huge fire pit in less than a day.
The fire kang built by Lin Shuhang is a standard northern fire pit, that is, the mouth of the fire pit is connected to the stove for cooking. Cooking and burning the kang kill two birds with one stone. There is no need to cook separately or burn the kang separately. It is just different from the fire kang of ordinary humans.
The difference is that this is a giant's fire pit! The length reaches 150 meters and the width reaches 200 meters.
After building the fire pit, Lin Shuhang couldn't wait to let the crazy general go out to find some wood.
It is said that it is wood, but it is actually those huge trees that died due to earthquakes and the coming of night. These giant trees can just fit into the opening of the fire kang.
A raging fire started burning in the stove, and within half an hour, the entire fire pit was already very hot.
Lin Shuhang reached out and touched the big stone slab on the bed. After testing the temperature, he frowned and said, "Is this bed a little hot? If you lie down on it and sleep like this, your skin will burn."
The audience outside the venue said dumbfounded: "You need to put a layer of mats and blankets on top. If there are no mats and blankets, wouldn't it become a teppanyaki?"
"Then I'll go get some blankets!"
There are about 100,000 tons of animal carcasses stored in Ice Keng No. 1 Refrigerated Cave, and there is no shortage of fur items.
Lin Shuhang immediately left the pit and went to the corpse freezing cave to peel off a few animal skins and spread them out on the fire bed.
Not to mention, after spreading out a few animal skins, lying on it feels like lying on an electric blanket, your whole body is warm.
After doing all this, Lin Shuhang lay on the kang and fell asleep.
It was a very sweet sleep. Lin Shuhang and Crazy General slept directly on the fire pit for three or four days.
When I woke up, it was still snowing heavily outside.
After several days of heavy snowfall, the thickness of the snow on the ground reached an astonishing ten meters!
The entire Titan Continent was covered with a layer of pure white silver by this heavy snow, like a beautiful oil painting, looking very magnificent.
Lin Shuhang had not seen such heavy snow for a long time. He suddenly became interested and woke up the crazy general who was still sleeping soundly on the fire pit.
"Come on, Crazy General, I'll take you out to have some fun!"
