The temperature continued to rise. In the following week, Zhao Zhixin and the others' task of fetching water from the spring became visibly difficult. After going out every day, they had to travel to several places to fill the buckets.

The thermometer Ye Buqing placed outside has soared to fifty-five degrees. She has never seen such an outrageous high temperature in the seventeen years since she was born. The air conditioner at home is overloaded every day. Every time Zhang Yun comes out from cooking, she feels like Like crawling out of the water.

However, the high temperature also has some subtle benefits. It is too hot outside, so it has been very peaceful recently. Not to mention people, even the insects in the grass outside have not sounded again.

One day, Ye Buqing gave Zhang Yun a little more eggs for dinner. Zhang Yun forgot to put the unused eggs in the refrigerator that night. When he beat them out the next day, they were already in a pile of bad ones. After they were cracked open, they stunk to the point of ecstasy. From that day on, Zhang Yun would check outside the stove many times before going to bed to see if there was anything missing.

Ye Buqing hasn't been active recently, but the last time she exchanged more than 10,000 points at the safe base, it gave her the illusion that it was easy to earn points, which made her very interested in exchanging points.

The fuel consumption of pickup trucks is already high, so Ye Buqing drained the Raptor's fuel tank and took out another new car.

The pure black body was clean and tidy. It was Ye Buqing's first time to switch cars and drive. He was a little restrained at first, but after getting used to it, he picked up the speed and raced all the way to the main road entrance of the safety base.

The temperature was abnormal, and there were only a few people on the road. They walked tremblingly, and there was always a sense that the next second it would melt like butter and turn into a puddle stuck to the ground.

The guards on both sides were walking into the base with guns on their backs. When they heard the sound of the engine, they looked back. They were first attracted by the car body, and then they discovered that there was a familiar red and white plastic electronic horn hanging on the car mirror.

The car window was lowered, and Ye Buqing stretched out a hand to wave to him, greeting him expressionlessly, "Hello."

"..." The man's expression was at a loss for words. He looked at the man's dream car, and then at the fresh-faced girl driving the car, and asked in a very difficult-to-speak way, "Have you changed cars?" "

Ye Buqing was very familiar with him, not the kind of familiarity where each other knew each other's details, but the kind of inexplicable tacit understanding between the crowd after looking at each other many times, a half-baked familiarity.

"We've changed cars, are you taking over?" Ye Buqing asked, looking at the other person as he spoke. He was very tall, and military uniforms are always very flattering. When others look at him wearing this clothes, they will consciously look at him with broad shoulders and long legs. filter.

It's just that the clothes looked really thick. On a day of over 50 degrees, it was easy to sweat just wearing single clothes. They all had sunburns on their faces, and the sweat came out of the clothes.

"Well, shift change." The guard glanced at her and walked forward.

"Get in the car, I'll take you for a ride." After Ye Buqing finished speaking, the car stopped, raised the window, and unlocked the car.

The people outside were not too hesitant. After hesitating for about two seconds, they reached out to open the car door and sat down.

The cold air from the air conditioner hit his face, making him let out a long sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat from his forehead casually, and suddenly remembered that he had never officially met this little rich woman, so he said, "I'm Zhuang Ji, I'm sorry. It’s quite dirty, I guess you’ll have to clean the car when you get home.”

When he got in the car, he looked at it. The inside of the car was like new, and there wasn't even a speck of extra dust on the passenger side.

"I'm Ye Buqing." Ye Buqing said.

"The temperature has risen, and there are too many people who are afraid of heatstroke. During this period, registration can only be done in the morning and evening, and the other time windows are closed." Zhuang Ji did not ask what Ye Buqing was doing so many times a day. , I just briefly talked about the current small situation.

"I'm here to exchange points. I don't want to register." Ye Buqing shrugged.

Thinking about Ye Buqing asking him two days ago whether it would affect the exchange of supplies because he was not a base resident, Zhuang Ji inevitably thought of the bag of spicy strips that Ye Buqing threw at him. When he returned to the dormitory at night, a group of roommates went crazy and tore apart two people each. I ate the roots separately, and the sweet and spicy taste is still fresh in my memory.

The new car was a coupe, and Ye Buqing drove it more smoothly. After finding a place to park the car, Ye Buqing waved to Zhuang Ji, meaning goodbye. Zhuang Ji also saluted and walked quickly into the base.

Opening the empty trunk, Ye Buqing took out a large used garbage bag, searched around the warehouse, and found a few bags of uneaten rice noodles that he had scavenged from other people's homes. After thinking about it, he dug out a few more bags. Opened the uneaten biscuits.

They were all things that could fill the belly. Ye Buqing put them into a big garbage bag, closed the hood of the trunk, and carried a large bag of things around to the back door that he had walked through before. After walking through the long aisle, Ye Buqing opened the door of the material exchange center. , the heat wave hits our face.

The people inside were holding paper fans and fanning them quickly, trying to blow away the heat with the weak wind. When they saw someone coming, they glanced through the window and their eyes were glued to Ye Buqing for a while. He said lazily, "What to change?"

Ye Buqing took a few steps over and took out everything in the bag one by one, pushing the rice noodles over first.

The other party put down his fan and weighed the rice and noodles separately. After weighing, he looked at Ye Buqing's big black bag and asked her, "Are there any more?"

Ye Buqing took out the packages of biscuits again.

It says it has been opened, but in fact it is all individually packaged, it just doesn't look good.

Biscuits were probably in short supply. As soon as he took them out, the other party's eyes lit up. He took them and counted them. After counting, he pointed to the next door for Ye Buqing to count.

It was a thin card, and when I handed it out and took it back, it was still as thin, but with a little more than 5,000 points.

The other party handed the card to her, and while chatting, his tone was very envious, "Little sister, this is the first time I've seen someone who can redeem so many points at once!"

Ye Buqing smiled and took out two small plastic fans from the garbage bag that were put into the warehouse at some point and printed by the men's hospital for publicity. The quality seemed to be pretty good, so he gave one to each of them.

Who would have cared about this before the end of the world? As soon as Ye Buqing handed it over, the eyes of the two girls lit up. They thanked her repeatedly and praised her so much that they almost went to heaven.

After exchanging a wave of points, Ye Buqing returned the same way in a good mood. Just as he was going to the parking lot, there was a rush of footsteps behind him, and a familiar voice said repeatedly, "Stay, stay! Miss Ye, stay!"

Ye Buqing looked back and saw that it was Wei Duocai from last time who came in a hurry after hearing the news that she was here. His sweatshirt was mostly wet with sweat and the smile on his face was particularly flattering.

"Is something wrong?" Ye Buqing asked with raised eyebrows.

"Welcome from afar! The batch of chicken that Ms. Ye exchanged last time has improved the food for our base for several days. I, the director of the material center, was thinking about how to thank you. I learned about your arrival today. I wonder if it's not convenient now? I'll invite you to the office for tea!" Wei Duocai laughed twice, clasped his hands in front of him, and bowed to Ye Buqing.

"...I'm not an official resident, so it's not a good idea to enter your house, right?" Ye Buqing frowned.
