As Lin Cheng drank the last mouthful of hot soup, the late night snack that was not rich but full of calories finally came to an end. Daisy and Felton, who had eaten and drank enough, put away the dishes and chopsticks and put them in the dishwasher.
They each went back to the house, but Coke, who had eaten first, had already returned to the bedroom on the second floor and started snoring. For a while, only Lin Cheng and Bai Ling were left in the living room.
"Tell me, how long will it take for the snow outside to get lighter?"
Lin Cheng, who was leaning on the sofa and smoking a cigarette, and finally feeling relieved after eating the midnight snack, asked Bai Ling casually.
Hearing this, Bai Ling, who was preparing ingredients for tomorrow's breakfast in the kitchen, shook his head and said while scraping potato skins: "It's hard to say, after all, this is Beihai Road. Even before the end of the world, there was heavy snow here in winter. Unless we
We can find local people who are familiar with climate changes in this place, otherwise no one can tell when the heavy snow will stop."
Hearing her words, Lin Cheng took a puff of cigarette, frowned slightly and asked: "According to you, it was a wrong move for us not to insist on bringing Ayase Kawana with us?"
"That's not true."
Bai Ling shook his head again, and after peeling the potatoes, Bai Ling began to put the other prepared vegetables into the pot. After putting the seasonings for the stew and covering the pot, he continued: "Although Kawana is a local, she is young after all.
, it’s her limit to be able to help us draw a road map. I’m afraid she doesn’t know much more than we do about climate change here. Most of the people who are really sensitive to climate change in this land should be elderly.
Humans are dead, and the conditions in which these people will survive in the apocalypse are exactly the worst! So..."
Bai Ling hadn't finished her words, but Lin Cheng had already understood what she meant. Although Ayase Kawauna was familiar with the route of Beihai Road, she probably didn't know much about climate change. The people most sensitive to climate change should be Beihai Road.
Farmers, unfortunately, with the advent of the end of the world, the living environment of these people has become very bad, because in many people's inherent concepts, these people should have a lot of food in their homes, so the impact must be the strongest. In three years
As time passes, it is really unknown how long these people can survive.
"So after all is said and done, all we can do now is wait?"
After putting out the cigarette butt, Lin Cheng leaned back on the sofa and said in a helpless tone.
"There is no other way. This is the only way we can do it for the time being."
Glancing at Lin Cheng who had a helpless face, Bai Ling could only give him a helpless expression. She knew that this guy wanted to seize the time to catch up with the progress, but it was a pity that God was not kind to him. If he forced himself to march in the snowstorm, he would be a little careless.
She might encounter fatal danger, so even if she knew what Lin Cheng was thinking, she had to tell the truth.
Realizing that he couldn't leave tonight, Lin Cheng stopped insisting and stood up and said: "Okay, since we won't be able to leave for a while, let's take this opportunity to have a good rest and wait until everyone is completely rested before setting off.
"
After that, he waved to Bai Ling and then went upstairs to rest.
…
The next morning.
The first thing Lin Cheng did when he opened his eyes was to jump out of bed to see what was going on outside. When he saw through the window that the heavy snow outside was still falling, and even half of the first floor had been buried in the heavy snow after a night, his heart suddenly stopped.
When I got cold, I walked into the bathroom to take a shower with a look of despair on my face.
It was snowing heavily outside and it was freezing cold. Standing in the bathroom, Lin Cheng let the ice water hit him. His head, which had been a little confused, suddenly became much clearer. After taking a quick cold shower, he felt every cell in his body
After he became active, his inner depression inexplicably dissipated a lot. He left the bathroom, casually threw on a T-shirt and a pair of sweatpants, and went downstairs with his slippers.
After going down to the first floor, he found that the others had gotten up early and were sitting around the dining table waiting for him. This scene appeared in the capsule room more than once. Whether it was Lin Cheng or Bai Ling, they had already expressed their concern.
As is customary, after saying hello, everyone started eating breakfast after Lin Cheng served the table.
Because of the existence of storage capsules, even though the apocalypse has been coming for three years, everyone can still eat fresh vegetables and meat every day. Except for Daisy, who asked several times at the beginning, others even asked
I don't even bother to ask. In Lin Cheng's words, don't ask. Asking is a miracle.
After slurping down a large bowl of stew, Lin Cheng wiped his mouth, patted Coke's head next to him who had also just finished eating, took it with him, opened the door of the capsule house and walked out.
Using an ice shovel to shovel away the snow blocking the door, Lin Cheng stood on the side of the road, looking at the seemingly endless snowfield around him. After taking a deep breath, he looked up to the sky.
The heavy snow fell on the ground. Even if he raised his head briefly, Lin Cheng felt that his breathing was a little short. Because the snow was so heavy that if he stayed outside for a little longer, he would completely turn into a snowman, so
After walking outside in the thick snow for a while, knowing that there was a high probability that he would not be able to survive today, he went back to the house with a Coke.
Back in the capsule house, Daisy and Felton had already turned on the TV and game console to start a PK battle, while Bai Ling continued to be busy in the kitchen, not giving any information about his and Coke's departure.
After seeing the reaction, he thought to himself that I have gathered a group of unkind and unjust teammates.
"The snow outside seems to be getting heavier. Do you think this kind of heavy snow will become the norm in Beihai Road?"
Finding that no one was paying attention to him, Lin Cheng could only walk into the kitchen by himself after hanging his coat at the door. He looked at Bai Ling who was busy and asked.
"Probably not?"
Hearing this, Bai Ling was quite optimistic. He wiped the dishes carefully and said, "You must know that even in Siberia, such extreme weather did not happen every day. Beihaidao
No matter how bad the situation is, it can't be as bad as Hyboria, right? So don't worry, I think this heavy snow will pass soon. Before then, it's useless no matter how anxious you are, you might as well go and play with Daisy and the others.
Games to pass the time.”
Hearing Bai Ling's words, Lin Cheng was about to agree, but then he remembered something. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Daisy and Felton who were enjoying themselves, and said in an inexplicable tone: "To pass the time? So?
You think you have too much time, right?"
"I didn't say that."
After hearing his words, Bai Ling immediately realized something. After sticking out his tongue, he quickly finished tidying up the kitchen and went back to the bedroom. However, Daisy and Felton, who were holding the controllers and playing with them, did not realize it yet.
, an inhumane special training has been brewing in Lin Cheng’s mind!
