Encounter the Ice Age

Time moves forward quietly.

At first, Zhao Qing followed Chen Yang to see the situation outside, and found that the wind and snow had no intention of stopping at all, so he never followed him out again.

The desolation of the world makes the hearts of those who watch it feel numb. Zhaoqing didn't want to let herself fall into negative emotions, so she quietly checked and sorted out the supplies in the small world storage warehouse in the house.

"What are you doing?" Chen Yang simply cleaned up the outhouse in the past few days, and threw glass fragments and the like into the toilet that cannot be used.He also cleaned up the empty rooms in the entire building, and brought back a lot of edible and usable things.

For a few days, no one was walking on the streets, and the number of survivors was less than they thought.

"Fry more scallion pancakes," said Zhao Qing, confident that the two of them could survive these times. The biggest test in the future is how to survive the so-called return of the Ice Age.

Chen Yang's elder brother and his family are outside, and most of them have to go on the road. Zhaoqing wants to turn the ingredients into food that can be eaten at any time so that it is more convenient.

Chen Yang reached out and tore a corner of green onion pancake in the pot, stuffed it into his mouth, and immediately jumped up, "Hot, hot!"

"No one will fight with you, be careful," Zhaoqing saw that Chen Yang's lips were all red and put down the shovel. He turned Chen Yang's lips out to have a look, then continued blowing, and finally gave Chen Yang a piece of candy to eat .When he got burned when he was a kid, Mrs. Connor would blow him and give him a piece of candy.

Chen Yang put his arms around Zhaoqing: "The eye of the storm will come to us in one day or so."

The radio signal became more and more unstable. Chen Yang made a signal booster and listened to the trajectory of the eye of the storm every day, as well as how to prevent it and how to survive the temperature drop of 40-50°C.

No network, no mobile signal, only terrestrial shortwave communication.Every day, the radio will circulate in different languages ​​to report the surrounding situation.

As for what the entire earth looks like now, where else is suitable for survival, and whether anyone will come to rescue is unknown.

Chen Yang: "Now the repetition rate of information on the radio is getting higher and higher, which means that the speed of updating information is decreasing, and there are more and more unknowns."

"I don't know what kind of existence the eye of the hurricane is. Why is the communication in the places it passes through completely cut off?" Zhaoqing frowned at this point.

In the notification information on the radio, it can give the approximate route of the eye of the hurricane, but as long as the eye of the hurricane passes through the city, the news will be completely cut off. No one knows what the rest of the city will be like after the eye of the hurricane passes through.

"Don't worry, most of the damage is to the communication infrastructure, people can still live."

"Well, when the time comes, let's add coal, add carbon, eat under the quilt, and hold the wedding candy." Zhaoqing lowered his head and touched the belly of the wedding candy with the soles of his feet.

Happy Candy alone finally gave out some meat softly.

"Isn't that right, Xitang!" Zhaoqing teased Xitang to keep herself from falling into a panic fantasy, Xitang meowed twice and climbed up from Zhaoqing's trouser legs and landed in Zhaoqing's only hood.

Three meals a day became what Zhaoqing cared about the most, and every day he gave the three of them nourishment in different ways.

"Eating under the quilt, your husband and my eight-pack abs are almost gone." Chen Yang took Zhao Qing's hand to press on his abdomen.

Zhaoqing patted the button and said, "I don't know where the food went, it's hard like this."

"Oh...there's a harder place," Chen Yang deliberately walked down with Zhao Qing's hand, Zhao Qing withdrew his hand all of a sudden, and gave Chen Yang a kick by the way.

At this time, the outdoor temperature was around minus 0 degrees, and they never cut off the charcoal fire indoors to maintain it at around [-] degrees. It can be warmer around the brazier and in the freezer, but they can't take off their down jackets.

Wanting to get the maximum contact with the surface area of ​​the skin to get naked, Chen Yang didn't want Zhaoqing to take off his clothes, and he was even more afraid that Zhaoqing would sweat.In the past two days, Zhaoqing had a fever again and again, and took medicine continuously to subdue it.

Now it's a life-threatening to catch a cold.

Zhaoqing was so hot doing his own thing that he didn't bother to look at this man who made fun of him. Now Chen Yang seemed to be boiling the little frog Zhaoqing in warm water. He got used to kissing and hugging Zhaoqing every day.

Every time Chen Yang talked about it, at most it was just a lifeless kiss against Zhao Qing.Zhaoqing's lips and tongue were so numb that he let go. Fortunately, Chen Yang didn't notice Zhaoqing's limp knee when he was lying in the freezer before going to bed.

Zhaoqing knew what Chen Yang wanted, but he didn't refuse, it was all what Chen Yang wanted, so he naturally wanted it too.It's just that the weather is too bad to do anything, and it's hard for both of them in the early morning.

For dinner, we still eat fried fish and rice, and the couple eat fried noodles and sauced pig's trotters.

Zhaoqing's heartbeat began to fluctuate after dinner, and she was still in a state of panic even though she was nestled in the freezer.

"Chen Yang, don't take off your clothes! Don't take off your windbreaker jacket either."

"What's the matter? The radio said that the eye of the hurricane will come one more day? Don't be afraid." Chen Yang comforted Zhaoqing because there was still one day before the eye of the hurricane said in the radio.

"You just listen to me," Zhao Qing said with uncontrollable fear as her face turned pale.

"Okay," Chen Yang kissed Zhaoqing on the cheek, a few clothes on the left and right can make Zhaoqing feel at ease more than anything else.The two of them lost a layer of quilt, and he hugged Zhaoqing tightly.

Zhaoqing was worried, but fell asleep in Chen Yang's embrace.

Mian Ye didn't know how long, Zhaoqing heard Xitang's cry, and he muttered, "Xitang, don't call."

Recently, Xitang often screams in a low voice as if in a nightmare, Zhaoqing closed her eyes and reached out to touch Xitang to comfort her.

Zhaoqing suddenly opened her eyes and woke up suddenly, shouting: "Chen Yang! Chen Yang!"

Chen Yang fell asleep in a daze, "Huh? What's wrong?"

"Chen Yang, it's cold!" Zhaoqing felt the temperature drop. He took out a bunch of self-heating bags from the space and threw them on the quilt to let them quickly contact oxygen and transfer heat.

"What?" Chen Yang turned over and bumped into the top of the freezer. Before he could feel where he hit, he opened the door of the freezer and jumped to the ground. Sure enough, the charcoal fire in their bathtub, which usually burned until the next morning, was almost extinguished.

Chen Yang took the prepared hay and dyed it on fire. He first filled the gap of the bathtub with fire and then put briquettes on it.

"Put on your shoes first! Don't get frostbite!" Zhao Qing jumped off the bed, carrying Chen Yang's shoes.

Chen Yang continued anxiously. The charcoal fire socks and shoes were put on by Zhaoqing.

"Xiao Xiao, fill the bathtub with a layer of hay and a layer of carbon!" Chen Yang looked at the windows and doorways on the roof, saw the happy candy still wandering around their feet, and immediately shouted: "Go to bed, happy candy!"

"Happy candy, go to bed!" Zhaoqing touched the instep of the happy candy, and the latter jumped onto the bed and meowed, as if asking the master why he didn't come to a warm and soft place.

Listening to Chen Yang's words, Zhao Qing continued the hay and charcoal fire, and the smoke rose up and choked people to tears.The metal bathtub wall sensed the temperature, and at this time, I didn't think about taking a breath or anything, I just hoped to live first.

The idea is good, and the preparations have always been sufficient in their eyes, but the glass above their heads began to crack, and this unprecedented sound appeared in their ears for the first time, like a reinforced concrete building being poured. There was a sizzling sound of hot water and rapid freezing.

All tangible objects exposed to the outside instantly crystallized, and their ears were filled with the sound of tiles shattering and falling to the ground like crystals shattering on the outer edge of the building, which was ear-piercing and sharp.

"This window can't help but get out of the way." Chen Yang put on a piece of clothes and directly pushed the side of the bathtub, Zhao Qing obediently jumped away before realizing what Chen Yang was going to do.

"Be careful!" Zhaoqing heard the cracking sound of the window, he closed the freezer door and put the freezer and bed into the small world in an instant, followed Chen Yang into the dark room.

Zhaoqing also forgot that she brought something out of Xiaotiandi and blocked the door of the darkroom, and after releasing the freezer, pushed Chen Yang to hide in the freezer.

Zhaoqing breathed white steam, and the surrounding temperature dropped visibly.He stretched out his hand to close the lower half of the refrigerator door, and before he could sit still, he heard Chen Yang's gasping sound, which stopped abruptly as if afraid of Zhao Qing's worry.

Zhaoqing pursed his lips tightly and turned on the flashlight, and he threw the heat pack into Chen Yang's clothes.

Chen Yang saw a small brown bottle in Zhaoqing's hand, and Zhaoqing dug out a large lump of oily ointment and piled it directly on Chen Yang's left hand.

When Chen Yang pushed the brazier, he only put a piece of clothing on it, and when it burned to the point of the tiger's mouth, a string of burning bubbles appeared.

"I'm fine, I'm fine," Chen Yang stuffed the heat pack into Zhaoqing's clothes with his movable hands, and the happy candy was clustered between the two of them as if frightened.

Zhaoqing didn't answer, and quickly wrapped Chen Yang's hands with a bandage. He turned around and stirred the bathtub with an iron hook, unscrewed the unused oxygen bottle, and let it slowly release oxygen into this space to accelerate the burning of flammable materials. Oxygen, also allows them to have some oxygen.

"Breathe, little one, breathe, you are too nervous!" Chen Yang pinched the back of Zhaoqing's neck with strength, "If you are afraid that you will go in, I'm fine!"

"I don't, never." Zhao Qing put down everything in his hands and hugged Chen Yang's waist desperately.

"I'm really fine, you go in!" Chen Yang pulled Zhaoqing's arm to signal his lover to take shelter in a warm place.

"You have to stay with me, Chen Yang," Zhao Qing stared at Chen Yang with sparkles in his eyes.It was easy for him to be alive, it was hard not to be alone.Chen Yang is his life-saving straw, his only hope that he will not be alone in the future.

Chen Yang will never forget the look in Zhao Qing's eyes at this time, it was nostalgia holding Chen Yang's life.

"Okay, I'll be with you!" Chen Yang kissed Zhaoqing's hair very hard, and again and again Zhaoqing stayed by his side.

Together, the two looked at the wall through a quarter gap in the freezer.

Nature cast a big ice spell, and the roof of the darkroom they were in was quickly stained with ice patterns, and the haystacks piled up around them turned white like a sudden frost.

Chen Yang kissed Zhaoqing's mouth, and Zhaoqing got soothed and turned her head to reach out to stir the charcoal fire in the bathtub again, but was held by Chen Yang.

With a snap, Chen Yang also closed the refrigerator door that had never been closed, and the two of them were in a closed and warm space.

Chen Yang opened the valve of the oxygen cylinder a little wider, and said, "Don't fall asleep, and don't let it fall asleep even if you take a wedding candy."

"Okay," Zhaoqing said while flicking the candy, and looked at Chen Yang with great attachment.

"We'll be fine," said the three gasping creatures in the two-meter-by-meter-wide freezer so oxygen must be thin.

Chen Yang connected the oxygen bottle to the mask from the top of his head and put it on Zhaoqing's head, and he also took one.

"Can it breathe?" Zhaoqing pressed Chen Yang's injured hand to put a small mask on Happy Candy.

Xitang didn't struggle or whine. Animals are more sensitive than humans. Its small body trembled like a sieve and kept digging into Zhaoqing's arms. No matter how Zhaoqing tried to comfort her, it couldn't relieve it.

"Cover it up, it shouldn't be a problem if it doesn't fall off." Chen Yang covered his body with the quilt under his feet, and his fingers accidentally touched the inner wall of the freezer, which is usually kept at a constant temperature. The freezer is cold in one hand.

Chen Yang hugged Zhaoqing and pressed against him, the two of them wrapped the quilt tightly at the same time, Zhaoqing piled a layer of waterproof cloth on it, threw the heat pack into the quilt and rubbed it to every corner.

With the light of the flashlight, Chen Yang looked at the value on the side of the oxygen cylinder and patted Zhaoqing on the back.

"Don't get excited, breathe slowly. You feel carefully that we are not cold yet, rest assured, rest assured."

"Okay," Zhao Qing stared at Chen Yang with wide eyes.

Chen Yang lowered his head to kiss, but the oxygen masks of the two collided, and then they laughed together.

The sound outside was still so terrifying, the wind stopped whistling, and the air seemed to be frozen.Everything around me stopped, and time seemed to stop flowing.

On the frozen air, there seems to be ice shattering close at hand, and the invisible falling ice edges are like sharp knives, which can cut off every breathing person living on this earth at any time.

The scythe of death came from afar and harvested precious lives indiscriminately.

Everything seems no longer important, and everything is so important.

Somewhere in this white and snowy land, in a small freezer, two people looked at each other and smiled.

Zhaoqing and Chen Yang did not look away from each other, they let each other's appearance fall into their own eyes and become a reflection.Even if death takes their lives at this moment, at least they see each other in their eyes.

That's worth looking at and smiling at.
