Chapter 738 The weather is getting colder
Since that day, a few sparse stars appeared in the sky, the normal alternation of the sun and the moon has returned to the point where the day and the night have become clear, but the temperature has changed again.
Maybe it was the black hole formed by the annihilation force in the sky that swallowed up the energy of the sun, or maybe it was some other unknown reason. For example, the sun that appears in the sky today is a little pale, and the afternoon sunlight is not hot enough, making people feel like they are in the morning of winter.
In fact, it’s still far from winter now!
The abnormal changes in the weather made the fleet filled with a depressed and gloomy atmosphere. Because of this atmosphere, the children became afraid to play and joke. They shrank like frightened little quails and did not dare to speak loudly.
With the protection of the fleet, the people in the fleet would rather continue to withstand the impact of the natural disaster of red light than to get colder. The red light in the sky made the temperature very high. Everyone could endure it if they were short of food and clothing. However, the weather was too cold and lacked food and clothing, it would be even more difficult to bear, and many people would die of cold and hunger.
For example, if the temperature continues to drop, once the water surface freezes, the fleet will inevitably be blocked. The fish in the water and the birds and beasts on the shore will definitely hide, and the plants will be frozen to death, so it will be more difficult to collect food.
The sailboats are all wooden boats, so it is not convenient to cook fires. However, the waveboats are all made of steel boat boards. Burning a few fires can warm up the whole boat. However, to keep the fire burning, it takes too much firewood to consume, and the growth rate of bread trees alone is not enough.
The most important thing is that no one knows whether the bread trees will freeze to death after the weather is cold and freezing. Even if they don’t freeze to death, they can grow as quickly as they are now.
In short, if the weather is cold, it will bring more and greater difficulties to everyone.
Qiuying gathered everyone in the management team to discuss countermeasures.
"It would be great if people could hibernate as well. When they wake up, winter will pass."
"According to normal seasons, even autumn is not coming now. In winter, will it be colder and will there be colder storms and snowstorms? No one can say."
"Let's get back to the point. It's useless to think too much. We can only ensure that we return to the base safely first."
"We don't think about it anymore. Mr. Qiu said directly, what should we do!"
"Yes, in this case, to be honest, my mind was like water, all of it was covered in paste. I had no idea anyway. Sister Qiu, what do you want me to do?"
...
Listening to everyone talking none of them could make useful suggestions, Qiuying couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"I have no idea, so I told you. The current situation is that Yin Dong and Lao Zhu and the soldiers must compete against time to practice and improve their strength. After all, the time-changing of marine species is the fastest. When you enter the sea, if you encounter Shanghai monsters to attack the fleet, they will have to take the lead."
As soon as they said this, everyone nodded. A girl named Wang Lan said angrily: "That's right, when we fight to the death, they will all have to take over. Some people in the fleet actually complained that the soldiers did nothing now and ate so well. It's so heartless!"
When Qiu Ying heard this, a cold look appeared on her pretty face, and she said with a bit of a cold temper: "
Those who say these words will reduce their food by half, as long as they can’t starve them to death. If anyone makes trouble, they will throw them off the boat and let them stay on the back of the crocodile. If they can hold on to the base, they will be lucky."
The people in the management team were shocked, and even Wang Lan couldn't help but say, "They just complained a few times. If they threw them off the boat, there was no need to. The back of the crocodile was much colder than on the boat."
Qiu Ying said toughly: "No rules can be achieved. If you want to stay on the boat safely and enjoy the stability that the soldiers have worked hard with their lives, you must be honest."
Jiang Xia, the most aggressive in the team, raised her hand and said, "I support Mr. Qiu's decision. You must be grateful in life. Those ungrateful wolves have no meaning in protecting them. Moreover, we must be prepared at all times, afraid that at any critical moment, they will stab the knife in the back. Therefore, it is very necessary to remove them from the ship."
After hearing Jiang Xia’s words, everyone thought it made sense. Moreover, Qiuying’s attitude was very firm. Even if everyone disagrees, she would insist on her own.
This resolution caused an uproar on the ship, but under the strong attitude of Qiu Ying and the management team, only a few people jumped out to object. These people were tied up by the light rope condensed by the power of the formation on the spot and threw it on the back of the crocodile. It was a warning to the monkey, and it suddenly suppressed the floating hearts of the fleet.
Next, Qiuying and the team members issued any resolutions, and no one on the ship would object. Even Qiuying's aunt dared not scold her behind her back.
All branches cut from the bread trees were piled up on public platforms, built into blocked wooden walls, stored and not allowed to be taken privately. All foods were baked into dry food, and food was distributed uniformly for each meal, and they were not allowed to be cooked separately. All leaves were collected and placed on the boat.
In addition, Qiuying also tried to weave a fiber cloth from a bread tree, and it really made a finished product. Although the cloth looked more like a sack woven with hemp rope, this thing was made into a quilt cover and stuffed with leaves, and it became a quilt. When it was colder, cover it on the body and warm it up.
When evacuating from the provincial capital, everyone was wearing single clothes. Even some people came out with their luggage and were forced to throw them off before boarding the boat. So, if it was a little colder, no one could stand it.
But in this way, the branches cut down by the bread trees are even more in short supply.
"I've got time, I'd better go to the shore to get a batch of food and firewood. Oh, it would be great if I could find coal." Qiuying said, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
There are geological experts on the ship, and there are coal mines or charcoal factories nearby, maybe someone will know about it.
Qiu Ying was right. The current location of the fleet is not far from the local Zhoushan Coal Mine. Some of the coal mines are transported to the neighboring province by ship, so the coal mine built a dock and also a fleet of coal transporters.
After she told Yin Dong the news, Yin Dong went there alone without saying a word. When she came back, she gave her a thumbs up and smiled: "It's amazing!"
Qiuying smiled and said, "Really? Have you found coal?"
Yin Dong smiled and said, "I found a fleet full of coal. The most amazing thing is that the entire coal fleet is not damaged by natural disasters. There are still many people hiding on the coal ships. After their fleet will drive over and they are willing to go with us."
Qiuying was a little worried again: "Then you have to spend a lot of time to portray the formation for that fleet?"
