Natural disaster at the beginning: I will lead the system to build a safe zone
Chapter 63 Extreme Cold
The next day, the wind and snow surprisingly stopped for a moment, but before everyone could be happy that the weather was going to clear up.
It felt as if the temperature had dropped again, and snowflakes mixed with hail fell again, making their snow removal work even more difficult.
In such freezing weather, Shi Anan really didn't want to go out. She lay in the house to hibernate, teasing the waiter from time to time, and took a look at the weather on the system.
Wow, it's already minus 40 degrees Celsius.
She remembered that in her own world, the coldest cities were usually in high latitudes, and the lowest temperature ever recorded was only minus 60-70 degrees Celsius.
She could only think that such abnormal temperature was caused by a chain reaction caused by a previous earthquake, such as an earthquake causing a volcanic eruption, and volcanic ash entering the atmosphere would affect the climate.
Although Lingnan was not severely affected at the time and was located in a tropical region, it cannot be ruled out that it would be affected. After all, the end of the world cannot be viewed with common sense.
But in an area like this where the temperature dropped to minus 40 degrees Celsius, even she, who had a system, felt it was difficult. Could others really survive?
In fact, not to mention other places, even in the town closest to them, the people are really unable to survive.
Especially the group of people who went to Changle Village before, they thought that they would have a better life by leaving the village and coming to the town.
However, I didn't expect that when I first arrived, the government did provide me with housing and one meal a day, but the requirement was to participate in the reconstruction of the town.
This reconstruction was completely different from what they understood. The government treated them as forced laborers. They had to do all the dangerous, heavy and tiring work. If they didn't do it, they would not only be driven out of the town, but they would not even be provided with one meal a day.
When the temperature dropped at the beginning, it was tiring but I endured it in order to survive.
But when the weather got colder and the snow got stronger, they not only had to go out in the cold and shovel snow every day, but they couldn't even get a meal.
The reason was that there was not much grain left in the government, and abnormal weather phenomena occurred frequently, so grain needed to be stored, so disaster relief was stopped.
Now those people who came to the town from the village were all in an uproar.
They left their homes and came here for a better life, but now they can't even afford to eat, and they will be kicked out if they don't work.
If they stayed in the village, at least they would have freedom and at least they would have their own house!
So, out of anger, the town rioted.
Among the villages surrounding the town, Changle Village is not the largest village, not to mention that the people they brought this time only account for half of the village’s population. Therefore, in the case of such a riot, it is not an easy task for the chief of Changle Village to protect the people in his village.
Everyone wanted to rush to the mayor's house to ask him to release the grain, but the mayor was also following orders from the county. The county said to stop releasing the grain. Without grain for him, how could he get the grain?
But people who are about to die have no rationality at all. For these people who have already lost control, whoever makes them die is the enemy.
As a result, the people of Changle Village were forced to get involved in this chaos after only being in the town for less than half a month.
That day, the whole town was a river of blood, and no one knew who they were beating, or who was beating them. In such a chaotic struggle, some villagers even fought to death.
The town's bureaucracy also collapsed because the mayor was beaten to death by them.
When these starving people rushed into the town's granary, they discovered that there was really not much food left.
The remaining food was divided up, and only a small number of capable people could be supplied. The rest of the people were not only beaten and bleeding, but they couldn't even get a grain of rice, and still had to fight the cold weather on an empty stomach.
All the people who had a say in Changle Village gathered around the village chief and said, "Village chief, I'm afraid we can't stay in this town any longer. Why don't we go back to the village?"
The head of Changle Village wiped his face. There were many casualties in their village this time. Only about 200 people were left out of the 150 people he brought. This was a mistake in his decision.
Seeing that the village chief didn't say anything, another villager got anxious and said, "Village chief, please make a decision quickly! Now the people in this town are like crazy. They didn't get any food from the granary, so they started to rob those who have food at home. Every day we hear news that the rich families in the town were robbed."
"Although we have just arrived in this village, we all have some food with us. If we go back now, we may be able to keep the food. If we continue to stay here, when they have nothing left to rob, they will turn their attention to us!"
Although the other villagers did not speak, they obviously agreed with what this man said.
Although they didn't mention it, they were still resentful about the village chief bringing them to the town. They believed that if the village chief had not insisted on coming, they would never have left Changle Village to follow him.
People are like this, when things are going well, they think it is all their own merits, but when things are going badly, they will find a million reasons to convince themselves.
Now they feel unhappy because the village chief made the decision to bring them here, but weren't these people the ones who proposed to come to the town in the first place?
The head of Changle Village closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Go back."
As the village chief, he cannot shirk the responsibility of making a wrong decision no matter what the reason is.
Now he was just glad that at least there were still a group of people in Changle Village who were defending their homes.
But he didn't know that the people who stayed in Changle Village also took another path in order to survive, just like them, but their path led to light.
Not to mention that the village chief of Changle Village went through untold hardships to lead the remaining tribesmen back to Changle Village, but what he saw was a collapsed ruin covered with ice and snow, and he felt so desperate in his heart.
But the people of Changle Village who had already arrived at Guangming Village did not have the worries of their village chief, nor did they know that their village chief had already embarked on the return journey not long after they left.
Have a good night's sleep, no longer have to worry about the roof being crushed by the snow, no longer have to worry about the firewood in the house going out or suffocating due to too much smoke, and no longer have to be woken up by the cold just when you are about to fall asleep.
All of this seems like a dream to those who come to Guangming Village.
If this is a dream, please let them never wake up.
It was not until I opened the door and was blown by the cold air that I woke up with a start.
Li Zimu felt the temperature outside was lower than before, and he was no longer hesitant. He was glad that they made the right decision in time.
If they were still in Changle Village at this time, most of them would definitely not be able to survive this cold winter.
If the decision had not been made early enough, it would have been impossible for them to walk to Guangming Village without leaving anyone behind in such weather.
In short, life is magical. A thought of yours may lead to the abyss, or it may bring light and hope.
"Zi Mu, wear more clothes when you go out." Doctor Li's voice sounded in the room behind him.
"Oh, I understand, father. I'll be back soon." Li Zimu responded, wrapped in thick clothes, and went against the wind and snow to meet the woman who brought him light.
