"Then you have to find a way to refuse the other party's request."

"We also need to tell Zhang Jia and Sister Fen." Zhou Shuwan said, "No matter what they think, we have to remind them."

"Correct."

After lunch, Qi Mingyu and Zhou Shuwan put on air-conditioned clothes and walked towards Tao Zheng’s house in the back.

Arriving at Tao Zheng's door, Qi Mingyu raised his hand and knocked gently.

A moment later, Tao Zheng pushed the wheelchair and opened the door. When he saw them, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Captain, Wanwan, why are you here?" He stepped aside and invited them into the house.

Zhou Shuwan looked around and saw that no one else was in the room, so he asked, "Where are Xiaoliu and Sangzi?"

“They went to work.”

Zhou Shuwan nodded: "That's the same as if you were alone."

Qi Mingyu looked a little serious: "Tao Zheng, I have something important to tell you."

Seeing that both of them looked unusual, Tao Zheng calmly asked them to sit down and said, "Sit down and talk."

Qi Mingyu then told the content of the video on the Internet, and emphasized that in 18 days, the big earthquake would come as reported on the Internet.

Tao Zheng frowned, paused, and then said, "Actually, we've discussed this issue recently. However, as you said, the prophesied earthquake will occur during the Eternal Night Disaster, but judging by the current situation, the Extreme Cold Disaster is far from over!"

Qi Mingyu nodded. "Yes, there's a certain chance it will happen during the Eternal Night. But the current natural disasters can't be judged by common sense, so our family plans to leave the base and find a high ground outside to build a shelter."

Tao Zhengmu's eyes flashed and he looked at him.

He knew the situation of the Zhou family. Grandma Pang and Zhou's parents were not young anymore. When they trekked from the north, they didn't know how many people died along the way, most of them were elderly people with poor immunity.

But now, for the earthquake prediction with only a 50% chance, they actually took the initiative to move out!

After a long silence, he spoke slowly, "Living outside does have certain risks. If there's a sudden snowstorm, especially like the one we had the other day, it's very dangerous."

Zhou Shuwan's face turned pale, but he still asked, "So, we want to ask you, when you first came from the north, how did you set up your tents? How did you withstand the blizzard that swept through the weather?"

Tao Zheng pondered for a moment, tapping his fingers lightly on the wheelchair armrest a few times, as if lost in thought. Then, he raised his head, his gaze slightly solemn. "When we came from the north, the tent was built primarily with pre-dug foundations and reinforced with steel cables. The foundation had to be dug deep to protect the tent from the wind. Steel cables extended from the four corners of the tent and were fixed to the surrounding boulders or wooden stakes to provide stability. At the very least, we had to lay some snow bricks to reinforce the surrounding area."

He paused here, frowning slightly. "However, this method can only cope with ordinary snowstorms. If we encounter particularly strong weather, the tent will still be greatly affected. We have had many cases of tents being blown away on the road, especially those that were not properly secured. Therefore, we wear cold-weather clothing in the tent all day, just in case."

Even with a white flame stove, the temperature inside the tent is only 0-10 degrees. It is really cold without cold-proof clothing.

Qi Mingyu listened attentively, his expression serious: "So where do you usually choose to set up your tent?"

"A hillside leeward is the best choice. The wind is slightly weaker there, and the hillside's terrain makes it less likely your tent will be blown directly over. However, the terrain here is different from ours in the north, so finding rocks and wooden stakes might be difficult. Also, if you're trying to avoid earthquakes, you'll need to choose a spacious, elevated location."

"Yes!" Zhou Shuwan frowned slightly when he heard this. He was already wondering whether the place where he escaped in his previous life was habitable.
