Apocalypse: I rescued the big boss with millions of supplies

Chapter 174 Extreme Cold

"Sister Long, do we still need to wait for the Gale Ability Group?" Qiu Ling asked. Didn't they agree to buy the quilts from the Gale Ability Group?

"Then let's wait and see if they can trade with us before Brother Fu comes back," Long Yangyang said. If Brother Cangshu's prediction is correct, the extreme cold will arrive in ten days. Even if the Gale Ability Group doesn't trade with them for supplies, they will still make a fortune.

Long Yangyang took out supplies from her spatial storage. "Let's prepare some food first, so we can eat on the road." Bai Zhi and Yun Cangshu took the supplies and went to the kitchen to prepare the meal.

With Long Yangyang around, their food was not much different from what they ate before the apocalypse. In fact, since most of what they ate was food grown by Long Yangyang using her wood-type ability, their quality of life improved dramatically after the apocalypse.

If it weren't for the harsh environment and the mutated plants and animals, their lives would be much better than before the apocalypse. Seeing that Long Yangyang had closed her eyes, Qiu Ling ran into the kitchen with her short legs to help Yun Cangshu and Bai Zhi.

Why did Long Yangyang close her eyes? Of course, it was to sort out the supplies that could be used in the extreme cold within the space. Most of the coal ore in the space was traded to the military region when they entered the Qingdu base; it's just unknown whether An Xiong took it with him during the transfer.

The remaining coal in Long Yangyang's space is only about 3,000 kilograms. The cotton quilts, plus those collected from the Lai'anling base, amount to about 4,000 quilts. Apart from the medicines initially traded to Li Qin, there are about four pharmacy reserves left.

We also have several thousand sets of down jackets and cotton-padded coats, but these are far from enough to cope with the extreme cold that lasts for half a year at a base.

Unfortunately, Xiao Tu's current ability is only to restore communications at the Qingdu base. They are at the Anling base and have no way of informing the Qingdu base about the extreme cold.

Even if Dad and the others were consciously preparing for the extreme cold, they probably couldn't have imagined that the extreme cold was less than ten days away.

Long Yangyang sighed. Unconsciously, she had slowly integrated into this world from the perspective of an outsider to the book. Originally, she could have taken a detached view of the life and death of the characters in the book, but the love of her parents and brother, and the companionship of Fu Muyu, made Long Yangyang begin to keep them in her heart little by little.

Long Yangyang began to consider their needs and unconsciously started helping them.

In her previous life, Long Yangyang was always alone. Although she longed to build bonds with others, she always hesitated and dared not take that step. Unexpectedly, after arriving in the apocalypse, she actually found relatives and lovers.

Although there are some things Long Yangyang doesn't dare to be honest about, at least for now, she doesn't reject the Long family's kinship, and has even begun to try to respond to them in her own way.

By the time Yun Cangshu and the others had finished cooking, Long Yangyang had already packed all the supplies needed for the extreme cold: hand warmers, electric blankets, quilts, down jackets, sweaters, thermal underwear, scarves, gloves, coal ore...

"Yangyang, we made braised pork, sauerkraut stew with glass noodles, stir-fried cabbage with vinegar, crispy fried pork, and hot and sour shredded potatoes. Apart from what's on our table, the rest are all packed in airtight containers. You can put them in your space first," Bai Zhi said.

Time is frozen in Long Yangyang's storage space. If you put something in while it's still hot, it will still be hot when you take it out. It just came out of the pot, so I'm putting it in there so I can eat it on the way.

"The meat we're using for cooking is all mutated pork. We've prepared enough for six people for ten days, which is enough for the journey." Yun Cangshu was very organized and arranged things perfectly. "Now we're just waiting for the boss and the others to come back before we set off."

Qiu Ling obediently ate her rice. Mealtime was the quietest time for this child. Perhaps because she had experienced hunger at the beginning of the apocalypse, this child cherished food and was unwilling to waste a single grain.

"Right now, every meal of our mutated pork is one less we have. We don't even know if the mutated pigs at Silver Candle's ranch will be able to have piglets when we get back." Qiu Ling loves to eat meat and is very worried about not having any. She looks forward to the big pigs on the ranch having piglets every day.

"The extreme cold is coming soon. I wonder if the mutated beasts on the ranch and the crops on the farm will be able to survive in the extreme cold." Bai Zhi was worried about the upcoming extreme cold, especially after hearing Yun Cangshu's bad premonition, she always unconsciously thought the worst.

"Brother Cangshu, can you predict what the lowest temperature will be during the extreme cold? How long will it last?" Long Yangyang tilted her head and looked at Yun Cangshu. Because of the early arrival of the extreme cold, Long Yangyang was not sure if the descriptions of the extreme cold in the books she knew were accurate.

"I have a feeling it will take at least five months, but I plan to use my ability to find out the specifics after I finish eating." After advancing to level seven, Yun Cangshu also gained some understanding of his precognitive ability.

His precognitive ability is divided into passive precognition and active precognition. Active precognition is when he uses his precognitive ability to learn about the situation he wants to know.

Passive foresight is the sudden acquisition of future circumstances. Based on my experience, passive foresight usually occurs before major disasters. It's like a warning from heaven.

"Brother Cangshu, don't hurt yourself." Long Yangyang also wanted to know more about the extreme cold, especially where Yun Cangshu's ominous premonition came from.

However, Long Yangyang had heard from Xiao Fei that such a superpower was very likely to backfire. Not wanting Yun Cangshu to get hurt, Long Yangyang could only remind him to act within his limits.

After finishing their meal, Yun Cangshu immediately returned to his room to check on the extreme cold. Long Yangyang and Bai Zhi exchanged a glance and said, "Sister Bai Zhi, you stay here to protect Brother Cangshu. I'll take Lingling out for a walk and see if we can find anything else useful."

Long Yangyang and Qiu Ling went to Xiao Liu and Grandma Liu's place first. In the reward they gave Xiao Liu last time, Long Yangyang replaced the supplies she had promised to give him with three mutated corn kernels that could improve the physical fitness of ordinary people.

Long Yangyang noticed that when she saw Xiao Liu's family and Grandma Liu's family again, their physical condition had changed significantly. Although they were still somewhat thin, they had developed a thin layer of muscle on their emaciated bodies.

"Miss Long."

"benefactor."

The two families were neighbors. When Long Yangyang and Qiu Ling arrived, they were all home. They were very happy to see Long Yangyang and warmly invited her to come inside and sit down.

"No need. We plan to leave Anling Base and go home soon, so we came to visit you and bring you some things." The situation in Jihan is unclear. Xiao Liu and Grandma Liu's family have a connection with Long Yangyang, especially since Grandma Liu gave Long Yangyang a star core.

Therefore, Long Yangyang plans to send them some more supplies so that they can try their best to survive when the extreme cold arrives.
