When everyone in the group was very happy that the heavy snow had finally stopped, Lin Ling closed the group chat and continued watching her TV series.

The snow has stopped, and everyone's imagination is beautiful, but will the reality really be as everyone wishes? !

After the snow stopped that afternoon, some people went out, still going to the nearest supermarket.

But in the end, they only brought back the news that the supermarket was still closed. Everyone was a little disappointed, but tomorrow is another new day, and things will get better! Everyone comforted each other.

June 4024, 06, cloudy

The snow stopped yesterday afternoon, but it is still cloudy today, which undoubtedly adds a layer of gloom to everyone’s hearts!

I thought everything would be fine after the snow stopped. But what about now? It's still white outside, the temperature is still so cold, and the clouds in the sky are still so dense! We haven't seen the sun for a long time!

Other people's emotions have nothing to do with Lin Ling. Lin Ling is still the emotionally stable adult. Get up early to practice, keep in the best physical condition, eat hot breakfast, feed the little goldfish, and play with the little turtle's tail~

Lin Ling was watching the drama attentively in the room, "Da!" Suddenly a strange sound came from outside the room.

The noise was so loud that Lin Ling paused the TV show and walked out of the room to check. What was going on? What was broken in her room? The noise was so loud!

Lin Ling walked around the living room and didn't find anything unusual until she walked into the small compartment in the distribution room. Then she discovered that a switch had moved!

Lin Ling knew this switch. It was the indoor power switch, which could select the power source. Lin Ling had always used external power supply before!

But now, the switch has flipped to internal power mode! Now the solar panels are supplying electricity to the house.

What's going on? Lin Ling was a little confused. Why did she suddenly change her mode? Lin Ling was thinking about whether she should call the suit-wearing lady in charge of the decoration to ask, when suddenly, Lin Ling thought of another possibility!

Lin Ling opened the group chat and was about to type a question: "Is there a power outage? The circuit breaker in my room suddenly tripped!"

However, the community owners’ group was flooded with messages saying “Power outage!”

"What's going on? When will the call come?"

"Without power in this weather, people are going to freeze to death!"

Lin Ling then realized that this was the case. In her previous life, there was a power outage about a week after the extreme cold arrived. Afterwards, the power was not restored for a long time. Even when it was finally restored, it was only in some places!

After all, this extremely cold weather has blocked traffic. Even if the power lines can withstand the weight of ice and snow, those power plants will have no energy!

The coal for thermal power generation has run out, resulting in a natural power outage. As for wind power generation, I'm afraid all the big windmills have been frozen!

After Lin Ling determined what was going on, she returned to the power distribution room. She first cut off the power supply, then took out several sets of batteries from the space, connected them together, and then reconnected the power supply.

The municipal power supply has been cut off, and now there is no sun. The photovoltaic power generation is very weak and cannot supply so many electrical appliances, solar panels, and heaters in the house.

Lin Ling can only choose to use batteries for power supply now. Fortunately, Lin Ling has enough battery reserves, and when the batteries are out of power, Lin Ling can also use a diesel generator to charge them.

After solving the power problem, Lin Ling walked to the side of the distribution room and removed a painting on the wall, revealing the household wiring inside.

Then, Lin Ling cut off the wires entering the house and blocked the wire entrance with an alloy plug. This way, her house would be safer!

Lin Ling's room was still warm as spring, but after the power outage, other people had a hard time! No one expected the power to go out at this time!

Although air conditioners have basically lost their effectiveness in extremely cold temperatures, most people's homes have other electrical appliances for heating.

At worst, a hair dryer with hot air on can help! But now there is a power outage! The temperature in the room is dropping rapidly!

Everyone must find another way to keep warm, otherwise, the house will soon be as cold as the outside world! Although it is daytime now, the temperature outside is still around minus 30 degrees!

We can’t stay in bed all the time!

What's more, at night, the temperature will drop to minus fifty degrees Celsius!

At this time, Lin Ling had to praise the neighbors on the seventh and eighth floors. Luo Si and Liu Huifen had prepared firewood in advance so that they could make a fire in the house to keep warm!

However, not everyone has firewood in their house to light a fire! Then there is another way, that is a gas stove!

Because Lin Ling lives in the south, every household does not have gas heating equipment installed, so they can only directly light the gas stove and use open flames for heating!

After everyone discussed it in the group and decided to turn on the gas stove, the temperature in the room finally stabilized.

However, when Lin Ling walked to the window at this time, she saw Luo Si's figure, who appeared in the snow cave downstairs again!

He went to chop wood again! The snow was half a person deep, and it was very difficult for Luo Si to move in it, but he basically crawled on the snow, leaving a long trail.

Lin Ling was upstairs watching Luo Si busying himself downstairs. After a while, several figures appeared, including Liu Huifen and Jin Yunlu. Lin Ling didn't recognize the others, they should be their family members!

After the power outage, Lin Ling was not the only one who saw what was happening downstairs. Everyone was not stupid! One by one, they all went downstairs to collect firewood!

After a while, there were more people downstairs! The plants in the green belt are in great demand now! Fortunately, there are not many residents in the community, and the green belt is large enough with enough trees. Everyone is busy downstairs, and no disputes have occurred.

Lin Ling simply made a cup of coffee and watched the people downstairs working hard in the snow. There were people everywhere in front of and behind the building, and everyone went downstairs to work.

There were so many people, and they couldn't get any saplings, so they just dug up the small bushes in the snow, which were all firewood! Lin Ling even saw her former colleague, the one named Liu An, in the crowd.

Suddenly, Lin Ling saw a man holding an axe, chopping down a huge tree! The tree was seven or eight meters tall! It was the largest tree in the green belt downstairs from Lin Ling's building!

There are not many trees like this in the community. There is only one in a large area, and there are only dozens of them in total.

It's just that everyone living in this neighborhood doesn't usually have axes or saws at home, so no one wants to take down this big tree.

The man dug a hole in the snow under the tree, which gave him some space to move around, and he began to chop at the trunk. The snow on the tree fell down and landed on the man, who shook it off and continued to chop with his axe.

There was another person beside him, who was taking turns with him. It should be his wife. The two of them worked hard for half an hour before they finally knocked the tree down!
