Late at night, in the air-conditioned room of Su's parents' room at 24 degrees, the air conditioning made people feel refreshed. After dinner, Su Yun lay down to browse the social circle, while Qiqi and Tangtang used the fascia gun to massage her tight calf muscles. On the bedside table was a chilled watermelon that had just been taken out of the space.

It’s so comfortable and nice.

Su Zhangming and Liang Cancan were entering the South Gate at night. Just this afternoon, they encountered a pack of wolves in the forest. Many soldiers were bitten during the fight. Some of them carried the injured down the mountain to the base for treatment. They were responsible for carrying the river fish caught during the day. One person carried at least 80 kilograms of river fish to the north area. The water in the bag dripped down and wet their clothes, but they were dry again after a while.

The fishy smell was a bit pungent. In such a hot day, a group of big men wanted to just sit on the ground and have a rest. They had hardly any rest in the past two days when they went up the mountain. They had been searching for supplies non-stop. They had picked up all kinds of wild fruits and vegetables in the mountains. Not only did they have to carry heavy loads, but they also had to deal with the wild beasts in the mountains. They were extremely nervous.

After finally returning to the base, I just wanted to unload the goods quickly and have a good sleep. Then I remembered the order Li Yimin gave last month to bring back edible things from the mountains at all costs. It seemed that this day was going to be chaotic again.

Su Zhangming returned home, put half a bag of fish that had died of heat on the ground, and then fell down in the living room, gasping for breath. Zhang Lili picked up a piece of ice watermelon and tempted him to take a shower first, and then go into the room to turn on the air conditioner and eat some oily food.

"Wife, my legs don't belong to me anymore, they are sore, painful and swollen, please give me a massage."

"Who told you to go up the mountain on your own initiative? Didn't I tell you to just go home and stock up on water?" Zhang Lili scolded him while massaging his shoulders.

"We couldn't stay at home, so we happened to meet Captain Liang and chatted with him. He said it would be safe for us to go up the mountain, so we went. This time, Grandpa and Father Lan got a lot of river fish. We dried them and took them out to exchange for other things in the extreme heat, so life won't be so hard."

"Well, who says it's not true? Grandpa is so big and the whole family needs to eat. Lanlan's legs are not convenient. If we are not prepared, we won't be able to renew the rent in the future."

Ouch, don’t use so much force, my skin is broken and it hurts so much.

I have a little bit of spirit here, I'll apply it on you.

Then I'd better go take a shower first. Can I add ice cubes to my shower? There are sparks coming out of my body.

You big head ghost, remember to save water, stand in the big iron basin when taking a bath, and use the dirty bath water to flush the toilet.

Su Zhangming took a quick shower, put on a pair of beach pants and a vest, and rushed into his parents' room.

As soon as he opened the door, a gust of cold air hit him in the face, almost killing him.

At this time, Lan's father was eating the wild vegetable and fish porridge that Lan Lan had cooked for him. He also sprinkled some salt in it for seasoning. Even if he had eaten this bowl of porridge before the natural disaster, he would have praised it as delicious.

This weather is most suitable for drying things. The things that Lan's father brought back from the mountains these times were handled very properly by Lan Lan and hung on the balcony to dry.

The mugwort has been processed, and the internal organs of the grouper have been processed and slightly pickled with salt. Now they are spread out on the balcony to dry. To be honest, if there were not fewer insects in the base now, she would not dare to put them on the balcony to dry, otherwise they would be eaten by insects in minutes.

She sorted the wild vegetables and hung them up to dry. The air was so dry that they could be completely dried in two days. There were no extra cotton ropes, so Lanlan used the thread of her broken sweater to tie the vegetables into several balls, and sent them to the next door and upstairs so that they could also tie the wild vegetables.

Small handfuls of dried wild vegetables were bundled up, packed into bags, and piled up in the room. Looking at the piles of food and dried vegetables, Lanlan felt very satisfied. They were still much better than others. They used to be inferior to others, but they didn't expect to live in the best community now. The security guards at the security booth would look up to them when they go out, and people outside would subconsciously envy and jealousy them when they talk about their community.

At the grandfather's house, it was already crowded, and now with all the supplies there was no place to step. Su Zhibang's wife Yang Mei'e was getting even hotter and more upset, and couldn't help complaining: "It's so hot and we have to clear out a room to store things. Several people are sleeping in the same room and will be roasted at night. Mom, can you talk to my cousins ​​and let my little sister go up to the 6th floor to sleep for a while? They sleep in 4 rooms, can't you support us a little?"

"What are you talking about? Don't let anyone hear you. How can they sleep on the 7th floor? The top floor is an insulation layer. If you break an egg on the 7th floor, it will be cooked in a few minutes. Besides, they bought the house with points, so it's their freedom to sleep however they want. Don't let your imagination run wild. Those stinky and hot rooms in the East District are still available for people to sleep in. We are much better than them."

"Mom, how did their family get so many points? Why do they occupy the 7th floor?" Yang Mei'e was scolded and couldn't save face so she asked for something to talk about.

"Don't ask around. Su Yun's little grandmother hasn't come yet. Who knows if it's left for them?"

"We are all relatives, why don't you leave a room for us to store some sundries? Look at our house, it's so crowded."

"You should be content. Your little sister has no idea how she is doing now. We can still see each other in the extreme cold. But her in-laws didn't agree with our visit to the base this time, and they didn't come with us. We don't know where she is suffering now."

Every time Yang Mei'e heard her mother-in-law talking about her younger sister-in-law, she would shut up consciously. Fortunately, she didn't follow up, otherwise the food at home would have been eaten up long ago. Having an older sister-in-law with a burden already made him very unhappy.

Before the natural disaster, she and Su Zhibang were getting a divorce, but the matter was dropped when the extreme cold came. She also found out that Su Zhibang's family conditions were not very good before, but after the natural disaster, they lived a better life than other families. She could not endure hardship, so she was reluctant to quarrel with Su Zhibang now.

After arriving at the base, she dared not mention the unhappy things in the past, but she still didn't want to work as usual. Su Yun and Zhang Lili followed her up the mountain. She felt that these two people were a drag. They always interfered with other men's affairs. Every time the supplies were distributed, the Su family always took two more. She felt suffocated. Every time she talked about it, the other people in the family spoke on their side. It seemed that she was so selfish, and she didn't think about who she was doing this for.

This time, Su Ma led the team to fetch water. When she saw their family's pedal tricycle, she was very happy. She followed them to the ancient well to fetch water, only to find that Lanlan from the opposite side didn't have to go at all. The people on the 6th floor always helped them carry the water bottles home, while she had to carry the water bottles weighing dozens of kilograms to the 5th floor with great effort.

I really don't understand. They are obviously the relatives, but they make it seem like Lanlan's family is closer to them. I really can't tell the difference between close and distant relatives.

She suppressed her unhappiness, pinched her nose and took Su Zhibang's dirty clothes to the balcony. They were so smelly. The dead man hadn't taken a shower for several days.

At this time, Su Zhibang's sister Su Feifei and her grandfather were in the kitchen preparing the fish that Su Zhibang brought back this time. They cleaned the fish's internal organs, rinsed it with clean water and marinated it, and would hang it up tonight.

Soon the house was filled with the smell of fish. Yang Mei'e returned to her room angrily, closed the door, sat on the bed and fanned herself vigorously with a palm-leaf fan.

Wang Jie left a message to Guan Xiong using Sun Wukong's account, saying that he had recently gone to the mountains and found that the water levels in many rivers had dropped, and asked if the base had made any preparations.

Guan Xiong was arranging the mountain products brought back from the mountain in the air-raid shelter at this time, deciding which ones needed to be dried and which ones needed to be washed. He had no time to check his phone. The temperature on the second underground floor of the air-raid shelter was obviously much lower than outside. After he finished his work, he checked his phone and replied to the netizen Sun Wukong: The basic preparations are already being made. Soon someone will be sent to manage the wells in the base. Tomorrow the base will also notify the public to solve the problem of drinking water on their own. Based on our friendship, I would like to remind you to stock up more water at home.

Guan Xiong has a very good impression of Wang Jie. He is low-key, capable, and does not cause trouble. He can also help the base occasionally. If there are more people like him, the base will not be so passive.

Sun Wukong: I was just want to tell you about this. The last extreme cold lasted for a whole year. Now the temperature is rising. I don’t know how long it will be hot. I also think we still need to make all preparations. Thank you for your reminder.

Guan Xiong: Don't worry. We have received a notice from the Meteorological Bureau. Disaster victims outside are heading to shelters and bases in large numbers. The reason why the water shortage has not been announced is because we are afraid that some extremists will take advantage of the chaos to disrupt social stability.

Sun Wukong felt relieved when he knew that the base was well-prepared.

Su Yun's phone also lit up, showing the information of the previous card.

Xiao Jing typed a long text and sent it to me: Not long after you left, the flood rushed into the village and submerged our first floor. A lot of food was flooded. Later, I rowed a boat to Xinxu Village to find your little grandmother. The terrain there is high, and only half of your house was flooded. The village chief and the villagers hid in the back mountain. I found your cousin and discussed with them to find you. Later, we used the kayak you left behind to find Qin Guo and his family. Qin Guo's village is low-lying, and the flood came quickly. His family members were washed away, leaving only Qin Guo and Qin Song. I don't know why the people in your village knew that we were going to find you, and they all wanted to follow us, so we wasted a lot of time. Many people got sick and died on the way. Your little grandmother and grandfather also died because they were bitten by poisonous insects on the way. Also, we couldn't find the rescue team you mentioned at first. Later, we went to several gymnasiums and libraries before we met the officers and soldiers who were going to Gui K Base. There were many of us and not enough food. The food in my family was snatched away by those people in your village. My parents-in-law argued with them to get back the food. My mother-in-law was beaten and became deaf. My father-in-law and Zhihui were also injured. It was your cousin who protected us so that my little Xingxing was not beaten. The man who beat us was called Brother Quan. You should be careful with Qin Guo and Qin Song. They are now hanging out with Brother Quan. We are now at the end of the refugee team and try to avoid Brother Quan and his people. Brother Quan is walking behind the military card with the villagers. The weather is too hot and the road is not easy to walk. Our refugee team of more than 2033 people can't move fast. But I heard that we will reach Gui K Base in the next two days. I called you many times, but the signal is unstable and I can't get through. If you can see this text message, please reply. My phone is running low on power and is usually turned off. Wait for my message. Today is May 5, 5.

Su Yun read the message carefully. He didn't expect that so many things happened to Xiao Jing after they left. Everyone looked at Su Yun's message in silence. Su's mother cried silently. "My poor aunt and uncle, why did they pass away? It would have been great if they had been brave enough to follow us."

"Mom, don't be sad. The dead cannot be resurrected," Zhang Lili consoled.

Father Su also sighed: That Brother Quan must be Pan Min's cousin. He is used to being domineering in the county and only comes back to the village to show his respect when visiting graves. I didn't expect him to become like this now.

How come Qin Guo and Qin Song are hanging out with Brother Quan? Although the two brothers were also small hooligans who ate, drank and had fun on the streets, they just liked drinking and gambling. Brother Quan was involved in prostitution, gambling and drugs. I heard that he was in jail for taking contraband. If Qin Guo and Qin Song really hang out with him, it would be bad. Sooner or later, they will be influenced by him. Su Zhangming said worriedly.

Su Yun sent a text message to Xiao Jing, saying that they were about two kilometers away from the base and the cell phone signal was relatively stable. He asked her to send him a message when she arrived and he would keep an eye out.

At night, a family of 11 people squeezed into an air-conditioned room to sleep. Su Zhangming farted and everyone couldn't stand the stink, so Zhang Lili beat him with a feather duster and sent him to sleep in the next room.

Su Zhangming, feeling extremely aggrieved, was originally playing circles in the air-conditioned room, but he was unexpectedly kicked out because of a fart.
