The return of natural disasters before the end of the world

After waiting for a few more days, no one came again, and the snow was getting deeper and deeper. Seeing that the mountain was really going to be closed, so I had to block the finished stone gate at the entrance of the cave, which could be blocked layer by layer.However, the efforts these days were not in vain. After a lot of hard work, the outer cave was also much warmer.

Xiao Wu used to come to the cave to report every day, and then went home very lovingly and dedicatedly to guard.A giant black dog came and went at an extremely fast speed, and it ran wildly in the woods and disappeared without a trace.Yao Ziqing saw that it was difficult to walk outside due to the heavy snow, and he was also worried that the real cold snap would come down. No matter how fast Xiao Wu was, it would not be as fast as the temperature change. No longer asked Xiao Wu to go out, and settled down in the cave together.

As for the house being occupied by someone, it doesn’t matter, let others hide in it for the winter. Anyway, there is nothing in the house at all, and many wooden furniture are also put away, just worried that someone who can’t bear the cold will put those things away. All the furniture was chopped up for firewood.

Xiao Wu was lying in front of the tent, gnawing on the bones left by his master, wagging his tail leisurely, quite comfortable.It has thick hair, and there are warm braziers everywhere in the cave, which is really comfortable.

Now Xiao Wu is as tall as an adult when he stands upright. Those sharp fangs and fierce eyes are really scary.Some children in the village dare not approach.Only An'an was not afraid, not to mention pulling hair, Lei Lang even made a cover for An'an, he could sit on a dog with a rope and ride like a horse, but a bunch of children died of envy.

In such a big environment, everyone has nothing to do and huddles together for the winter. The children have nothing to play with. Any child who has a toy can make people envious for a long time, let alone such a majestic one' Mount', I really envy the dead!

At this moment, Yao Ziqing kept stroking Xiao Wu's back hair with his hands, quite envious of that thick fur.Although he already has too many leather clothes to wear, but...Yao Ziqing silently lowered his head and looked at the innocent and blinking Xiao Wu, he still wanted it so much. The smooth and slippery hair of this body is really just looking at it. Comfortable.

Little Wu, who didn't know that he was being teased with fur, comfortably enjoyed the owner's touch, while gnawing on his favorite meaty bone. As a pet dog, there is nothing more comfortable than this!

After the group of herdsmen came in, they each chose a place to live together a little distance from the villagers, which reassured the villagers who were wary of them.The herdsmen's equipment is simple, most of which are used to save their lives, unlike those villagers who know that there is a place to stay here, and almost moved their families here.In comparison, the life of herdsmen is a bit embarrassing.

Dairy products are one of the foods that herdsmen eat the most, and things with high sugar content are good for storing calories in the body.However, the villagers haven't eaten this kind of milk-flavored food for a long time. In addition to oil and salt, other seasonings are used less and less at home, and many of them are gone, let alone sugar.

Seeing a few children staring at them eagerly, Zade felt a little uncomfortable.He had a three-year-old son who was frozen to death during the first cold winter of the disaster year. This has always been an indelible pain in his heart.He is very patient with children, and he is also very rare. Seeing their greedy expressions now, he feels uncomfortable.

That milky fragrance is very attractive, maybe not very sweet, but even adults can't stand the smell, so not only children are attracted, but also some adults keep looking at them.Zade is not such a kind person, even if he likes children in his heart, he can't be generous at this time, so he took some milk buns and looked at the parents of the children:

"Big brother, we didn't bring much with us for the journey. Can you exchange some bedding with some food?"

In the past, many farmers in the village planted cotton, and there were no wild flowers and weeds around the trails, but cotton seeds scattered casually.Quilts are the most indispensable things in the village.But if you want to change a quilt with just a few steamed buns, that's impossible given the current coldness.However, the herders still have a lot of wine in their hands. The nomads love meat and wine. There is no meat now, but there is still a lot of wine that has been stored for a long time.

In order to keep out the cold on the road, I couldn't bring many things with me, but this wine was the most.Drinking a sip of wine in winter can warm you from the inside to the outside, which is also very important in the wild in the snow.

There may not be many families, but there are more than a dozen households of all the herdsmen. It is enough to change a few quilts for the elderly and children in the house.

And some villagers were quite satisfied with the drinks in exchange.In the village, very few people do not drink alcohol, and even three meals a day, lunch and dinner plus a midnight snack, a plate of salted peanuts can drink half a catty of wine.If you don't have it, you can bear it. If you have it, even if you haven't drunk it before, it's unbearable.

Several people who were addicted to alcohol gathered together, and some dried meat, wild boar, robe meat, beef, and some whole pheasants and wild birds were hung in front of each simple shed.Once it is deep-fried in the pan, the aroma is overflowing, even if no seasoning is used, the oil residue alone is delicious, which is enough for drinking.

The few of them had a good time drinking and eating here, but the people around them were not feeling well.There is a lot of space in the cave, and the air is not completely impermeable, but the fragrance just doesn't dissipate.I don't know whether it's because I can't get rid of it in my heart or if it really remains in the hole.The aroma of wine and meat is really something for the gluttonous.

Lei Zheng glanced at his father, he really couldn't do anything about his father's good things, he sighed helplessly, turned around and planned to go out and exchange some for his old father.As soon as I got out of the tent, I saw Lu Xueyi coming: "What's the matter, come to visit?"

Lu Xueyi lifted the things in his hands, all of them were dried meat: "My dad is too drunk, and I really can't stand him, so I was wondering if I should change some, so I came to ask you guys."

Lei Zheng shook his head with a smile, and sat in front of the tent and pulled out a big black bag: "I still have a lot of sauces, hot sauce, and sauerkraut at home. I can exchange some bottles with them. I think they still have children, and An An used them when she was young." I brought some quilts with me, so I might as well exchange them, and I’ll have to wait until spring to hunt more prey.”

"Okay, you can tidy it up, I'll go see if Yao Ziqing and the others want to change it together"

Lei Zheng smiled: "Who will drink it for? There is no one in their house who drinks, so I probably won't go"

When the two were squatting together to see if there was anything that could be exchanged, there was a loud thunder outside, almost as loud as splitting the sky, just listening to it was terrifying.Moreover, some stone walls in the cave trembled faintly, even the small stones trembled, which showed the power of the thunder.

"Why does it feel like the temperature has suddenly become so cold?"

"It's really cooling down? I thought it was an illusion that I wore less?"

"Hiss~~ It's really cold, how cold are you talking about? The North and South Poles aren't that cold, are they?"

The villagers on the side began to chat in low voices, startled by the thunder and also by the sudden drop in temperature.The temperature dropped sharply in an instant. There has never been such a change in the weather, which made people feel a little uneasy.

Feeling the drop in temperature, Yao Ziqing took out several hand warmers and returned directly to the tent, telling grandma and the others to wear more clothes and not to run around.

"Suddenly the temperature has dropped, and the cold wave is coming. This cold wave may be unusual. Grandma, you should wear more clothes and hold the child well. There is a lot of space in the tent. Let the second brother come in with a stove later, and I will go out to see the situation."

Grandma and Ma Xin also felt the temperature change. After taking over the hand stove, they began to put some warm clothes on their bodies, which were quite bulky.Ma Xin also filled several hot water bottles, one of which was stuffed into a child.

Seeing that Xiao Wu was still lying on the ground, he was a little worried that it would not be able to stand the cold: "Xiao Wu, come in quickly, come here and lie on your stomach!"

While speaking, he put Xiaowu's special mat into the tent so that he could continue to lie on his stomach.Even though the tent is very big and spacious, when a big dog comes in, the space immediately feels much smaller.Plus it's furry, it looks warm.An An threw herself on Xiao Wu, was overwhelmed by Xiao Wuyi's claws, and hugged her directly under her stomach.

Xiao An'an hugged Xiao Wu's neck with a smile, and had a great time playing with it.When Lei Xiao was ready to bring in the hanging stove, the two little ones fell asleep.Ma Xin stuffed his son under Xiao Wu's belly, anyway, the bottom was covered, safe and warm.

Lu Xueyi huddled into a ball, bouncing around to drive away the cold, and at the same time followed Yao Ziqing to the entrance of the cave.The sudden drop in temperature made the people in the cave vigilant, and many people wore thick clothes and went to the entrance of the cave to check the situation.

It's just that even the big rock at the entrance of the cave is covered with a layer of ice. Although it is not very thick, it also makes many people tremble with fear: "This, this is too scary, right? Just like the previous It’s not ice after a while, it’s been less than an hour?!”

"If we are still outside, will we be frozen to death in an instant?"

"It's absolutely possible. Will the temperature drop again? It's scary. Fortunately, we are here!"

"It shouldn't be possible? Otherwise, can people still survive?"

"Dinosaurs were extinct like this before? Are we humans going to follow in the footsteps of dinosaurs?!"

Lu Xueyi shrank his shoulders, and rubbed against Yao Ziqing: "Let's go in, it's too cold, I guess we can resist it in the cave, right?!"

Yao Ziqing pointed to the outside through the gap blocked by the stone: "It is obvious that there is a trace of a cold wave. The plants outside were almost frozen to death and turned into ice. I don't know how big the cold wave is, but it is It won’t be small, if the affected places are not prepared for the cold, they may really fall asleep and never wake up again.”

Lu Xueyi was silent for a moment: "Then, let's stop talking, isn't Cheng Tao's brother still outside?"

Yao Ziqing glanced at Lu Xueyi, then turned his head slightly to look at Cheng Tao who was standing not far behind Lu Xueyi, seeing his body trembling uncontrollably, he didn't know whether it was from the cold or worried about his brother.

Lu Xueyi turned his head in response, and seeing the person he just said was behind him, he was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, if everyone gets together and burns the stove, everything will be fine!"

Cheng Tao didn't say anything, just nodded, then turned and went back into the cave.

Lu Xueyi scratched his hair, a little at a loss: "Did I say something wrong?"

Yao Ziqing shook his head: "It's okay, Cheng Tao is just worried about his brother, and the situation outside, even if you don't say anything, he will be worried."

"I hope, it's so cold, I can't do it, I'm going in, don't look at it, you won't think the temperature is warm, wear so little, go in quickly"

Lei Lang and Lei Xiao were sitting in front of the tent, while Fang Jinlei was preparing dinner.It suddenly became too cold today, why not just eat hot pot, Ma Chen cut the meat slices to help him.

Seeing Yao Ziqing come back, Lei Lang quickly asked, "What's going on outside?"

"The stones are frozen, with a thin layer of ice. Fortunately, we have the foresight to escape the cold in the cave. Otherwise, if we are at home, we don't know if the kang can block such a cold current."

Yao Ziqing sat next to the second brother, and seeing grandma and Ma Xin busy preparing to make clothes and quilts out of leather again, he took a look inside: "Where is Huzi An'an? It's so cold that An'an can stay here, otherwise The child really can't bear it"

Lei Xiao tightened Si'er's clothes a little: "They're asleep, Xiao Wu is here to keep them warm, it's all right."

"Little Five is still useful!"

In the house, Xiao Wu 'hatched' two cubs under his belly, his ears moved, but he still lay obediently on his side, covering the two cubs without pressing them down.What a dog with a good heart!

Lei Yuanming and the heads of two other villages ran around in the cave, reminding everyone to be careful at night when they have children, not to be reluctant to part with the firewood, and the firewood must not be cut off at night.Otherwise, it is really possible to fall asleep.

The village chief of Leijia Village is more prestigious. After several times of iron-fisted means, many people subconsciously listen to Lei Yuanming.Moreover, the current situation does not need to be explained by the village chief, and he knows that it is not the time to save firewood.

However, tragedies still happened in the other two villages.
