Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

Now that he had finished his work and breathed a sigh of relief, he noticed that the Seventh Prince's entire body was almost frozen into a stick.

No one had ever imagined that the current climate outside was much worse than the coldest winter they had ever experienced.

When Lin Xiaoyue saw the look on Seventh Uncle's face, her heart tightened and she looked out the window thoughtfully.

I can't help but worry, after the extreme heat, will they have to face extreme cold?

I can't help but think of the end of the world. With the spread of the zombie virus, humans not only have to face the threat from zombies, but also the arrival of extreme weather.

She will never forget it.

Overnight, the temperature dropped drastically, not by 10 or 20 degrees, but from 50 or 60 degrees in extremely hot weather to more than 50 degrees below zero.

The switch between the two extreme weather conditions caught people off guard, causing all cities to be completely frozen, and many people were frozen to death in their sleep overnight...

Lin Xiaoyue was immersed in the nightmare brought about by the extreme weather of the end of the world, while here, the Seventh Uncle's eyes lit up when he saw the exquisite sand table model.

Seeing the details of buildings, water sources, roads, etc. shown above, the first reaction in my mind is that if this sand table model is applied to military strategy, it will definitely help generals to use this model in actual combat research, analyze terrain, formulate strategies, and gain significant advantages in war.

"Well done, girl. You have a good brain." After circling the sand table model several times, the Seventh Prince Uncle excitedly slapped Lin Xiaoyue on the shoulder, which shocked her soberly and she couldn't help shivering.

"Girl, this is the blueprint of the entertainment city, right? What's it called? Well done. I'll have someone carry it to the palace tomorrow. You should get ready. I guess you'll have to go to the palace again." The Seventh Uncle did not notice Lin Xiaoyue's subtle changes. At this moment, his entire attention was focused on the sand table model. He was so excited that he could hardly contain himself.

If the Ministry of War learns this thing, it will definitely be a great help on the battlefield in the future. It will help the generals on the front line to deploy troops and set up ambushes, which will give them an advantage in fighting.

"I'll ask for credit for you old guys later, and then everyone will get a reward."

"Thank you, Brother Qi"

"Thank you, Brother Qi"

……

The room was filled with cheers, and everyone was extremely excited, feeling that all the hard work they had put in over the past few days was worth it. However, Lin Xiaoyue was distracted, and her eyes could not help but wander towards the window.

Before returning to their rooms at night, Lin Xiaoyue, Chun Xing, Xiao Cao and others walked on the corridor. Looking at the white mist coming out of their mouths, Lin Xiaoyue couldn't help asking the people around her, "Is the weather this cold in previous years?"

"Ah?" Everyone was stunned by Lin Xiaoyue's sudden question.

"It seems like it's this cold every year, right? There's no difference." This is Xiao Cao. Maybe it's because she always slept in the pigsty when she was at her uncle's house in previous years, so the cold has long been a common occurrence for her and she is used to it.

"Not really, I always feel that this year seems to be much colder than previous years." This is Chun Xing, the little girl exhaled white mist, rubbing her arms with her hands, and walked out of the warm room on the corridor. Although the corridor is not long, she always feels the chill rushing into her lapels and sleeves.

Ergou and the mute medicine boy looked around and shrank their necks in the cold wind. In their impression, winter always seemed so bleak, without any warmth.

When no one was paying attention, Lin Xiaoyue secretly took out a thermometer and measured it. The temperature outside was actually minus 23 degrees Celsius. No wonder the Seventh Uncle was wearing a thick fur cloak, but his whole body was still blown through by the cold wind, and his lips were shivering from the cold.

If the world here, after experiencing extreme heat, also enters extreme cold like the end of the world, then how can the people here survive this natural disaster? What about the family members far away in Wanbao Town?

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoyue couldn't help feeling a little worried.

She did not sleep well that night, and her dreams were filled with horrific scenes of the end of the world.

In the previous life, the apocalypse came suddenly, and the zombie virus harvested more than half of the lives. The people who survived in the cracks experienced a major earthquake, extreme heat and extreme cold, and the casualties were less than 10%.

Under extreme weather conditions, many elderly people and children could not withstand it and died. Even those who managed to survive the natural disaster had an extremely difficult life.

Although she did not die in the extreme weather, she and her companions were trapped on an uninhabited ice field during a mission.

The whistling wind, the biting cold, and the snowflakes flying all over the sky seemed to devour her mercilessly.

In her dream, she could still vaguely feel her body temperature gradually dropping and her consciousness becoming blurred.

She tried hard to stay awake, but the cold was like a ruthless demon, constantly eroding her body.

Just when she was about to lose consciousness, she seemed to see several passing convoys heading towards her.

Her life was hanging by a thread and she was rescued, but the person who saved her in the dream was so vague that she couldn't tell who was who.

The severe cold did not take her life, but it caused more than half of her companions to die or be injured in the extreme cold.

……

-----------------

At the same time, a small village surrounded by mountains is experiencing unprecedented extreme cold weather.

Snowflakes fluttered like goose feathers, and the sky and the earth were covered in silver.

On an extremely cold winter night, the villagers huddled in a dilapidated house, gathering around a weak fire to keep warm, but the biting cold wind still seeped in through the cracks, making people shiver with cold.

In recent days, due to the extreme weather, many elderly people in the village have fallen asleep and never woken up.

Many children were frozen to the point of turning blue in the face at night. Their parents held them tightly with a little warmth, but many children still could not survive the extreme cold weather.

The village chief and elders gathered all the villagers to discuss countermeasures.

"No, it's so cold, not to mention the elderly and children, even adults can't stand it."

"Alas, almost all the livestock in the village have frozen to death. Even several beggars in the dilapidated temple at the entrance of our village have frozen to death."

"It's too cold today."

"Yes, we need more firewood to make a fire and keep warm," a young man suggested.

"But the snow outside is waist-deep and we can't get out at all!" said another villager anxiously.

The villagers all frowned, thinking about possible solutions.

At this time, a man stood up and put forward a bold proposal: "We can dig a tunnel, go underground, and get wood and other supplies."

"No, it won't work. It's too cold today. The soil is frozen. How can I dig? My hands will go numb after I dig."

"What should we do? Everyone's firewood is almost burned out. If this continues, everyone will just freeze to death."
