I was reborn after the end of the world

Chapter 141 The Problem at Hand

Moreover, the officers and soldiers at the base are living people. The current medical conditions are seriously backward. They don’t know what unclean things they will encounter when going into the water. We cannot ignore their lives.

Fortunately, rumors of extreme heat were spreading widely in the base, and the base did not hastily take action to refute them. The survivors had more or less stored clean water, so they could hold out for a while longer.

As for food, every household now has some mutated sweet potatoes grown in extreme cold weather. At this moment, the survivors will save as much as possible and will not waste food to the point of running out of ammunition and food, unless they do not want to survive.

An official said in a deep voice: "Many elderly people and children who survived the extreme cold did not survive this extreme heat. Moreover, during the two years of extreme cold, there were very few babies born in the base, and most of them were conceived before the end of the world."

Everyone understands what he said, but most of the survivors are now struggling to make ends meet. When even staying alive becomes a problem, who would think about these things?

Most people's inner thoughts are: I am now wandering between hell and the human world every day, I don't know when I will die, I can't survive anymore, you tell me about offspring, are children born and raised by nature? Do they not need to eat?

Even adults may not be able to accept the current weather, let alone a baby, how can he adapt to it?

The officials present sighed and said, "This is a serious problem, but it cannot be solved now."

"The most important issue now is the water source. The laboratory is already working overtime to solve this problem."

"Alright, disperse now. Hold on to your own hands and be careful not to let the survivors cause trouble. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures."

If we continued talking, the topics would all be unanswered, so the base commander asked everyone to pay attention to the areas they were responsible for and then adjourned the meeting.

The base leader's hair, which was originally half white, turned completely white in just a few days. There was not a single black hair left, and his body became much thinner.

……

Two days later, the temperature rose to 59 degrees. Many people at the base could not stand this temperature and fell into a coma and never woke up again.

In the end, these people were pushed into the water below by default, which also caused the air above the city to become increasingly smelly.

Although I don't want to do this, there are no conditions to deal with it now. Some of the waste that no one has discovered has already rotted in the house. The smell in the house is even worse than that outside, and it is uninhabitable for a short time.

Fortunately, it is not all bad news. There is also good news, which is that the water level has receded. Although not much, it is telling everyone that the flood will dissipate soon.

Everyone had mixed feelings. They were happy that they could go out to find supplies, but they were also worried that after the flood receded, they didn't know whether there would be clean water sources.

As the weather grew hotter, Yun Yao and the others went down to watch the water gradually receding, and at the same time the smell became more pungent.

No one has come to the villa to cause trouble these past two days. Under such a scorching sun and smelling such a dizzying and nauseating odor, I guess few people want to come here to cause trouble, let alone seek death.

Now, Yun Yao was sitting in the living room with only a few fans beside her. At first, Sang Ning was still sitting here, but later he ran back to the room because he was about to have heatstroke.

Yun Yao looked at her and shook her head. What a silly girl! She wasn’t feeling hot because she was wearing a thermostatic suit. She didn’t think she was training her body to resist the heat.

Not to mention, with Sang Ning's way of thinking, he might really think along these lines.

After a while, Lu Jinan came back from next door and sat next to Yun Yao with a foul smell.

Yun Yao was thinking in her mind whether to give the constant temperature cloth to other people, but this was Lu Jinan's thing after all, so it was better to ask for his opinion.

"Lu Jinan, what do you think? Should we give some of the thermostatic cloth to Sang Ning and Jun Ge?"

Lu Jinan paused while drinking water and asked, "Why do you have such an idea?"

"That's right. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Although the constant temperature suit may become ineffective if the temperature rises a little bit, it is much better than having nothing. What do you think?"

Lu Jinan nodded, "That's right. Although it's very cozy, it may lose its effect tomorrow, but with air conditioning, it's certainly better than nothing."

Lu Jinan meant that he agreed, "Then how much do you think is appropriate?"

Lu Jinan thought for a while before speaking, "You don't have to give a lot, just enough for each person to make two sets of tops."

Yun Yao nodded in agreement. After all, neither of them had the luxury of using constant temperature fabric to make their pants, so two pairs would be enough for the others to alternate between.

"Okay, wait till night and then you can call them over and give it to them."

The smell on Lu Jinan's body had dissipated by now. Yun Yao discovered that this constant temperature clothing had another function, which was that it could remove odors very quickly, or it was just a little bit.

Because other people came in from outside with Lu Jinan, the smell on Lu Jinan's body had already dissipated. Ordinary clothes require changing into a new piece of clothing and then hanging that piece of clothing in the sun for a day before the smell will dissipate.

This was discovered by Ah San. Because the clothes were too smelly the day before, and he didn't want to waste water washing them, he hung the clothes on the opposite window, where they could receive the sun for a long time, and the smell dissipated by evening.

It just so happens that the thing that is most lacking in extreme heat is the sun, and everyone is reluctant to use precious water resources to wash clothes. However, summer clothes are thin to begin with, and if they are not washed, they cannot stand the sweat smell. So they use half a basin of water to wash several pieces of clothes, just enough to wash away the sweat smell.

Even so, they still need to go out and find clothes, because these clothes are too thin. While there are still plenty of summer clothes outside, they should bring back more to be prepared.

This time I'm not just bringing light clothes, I'm also bringing back some clothes for all seasons. Who knows what the weather will be like in the future?

In the evening, Mo Jun and his companions came to find Lu Jinan and the others. Now everyone was sitting in the living room. There were two fans blowing air next to them, but the wind was hot and useless.

"Jin'an, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. The three of us are going to go out and look for some clothes tomorrow while we can still find them."

"Brother Jun, don't worry, I just happen to have something to tell you."

Lu Jinan gestured for everyone to look at the cloth on the table. Everyone was confused. There were two pieces of black cloth on the table. They saw it when they came in. Did they want to make clothes by themselves?

Asan saw that the clothes on Yun Yao and Lu Jinan were made of the same cloth as the one on the table. Moreover, it was such a hot day and everyone was sweating, but Brother Lu and his wife were not sweating. How strange!

Ah San reached out and touched the cloth, then raised his head in surprise, "Brother Lu, is this cloth cold?"

Sang Ning, Mo Jun and Wang Lei all turned their eyes to the coffee table and tried to see if what Asan said was true.

"Sister Yaoyao, this fabric is really cold!" Sang Ning looked at Yun Yao and Lu Jinan, a little surprised.
