Chapter 886 The cannon fodder for the golden finger (6)
No one thought that this was just the beginning until they got up the next morning.
Many people froze to death at home because they did not close their windows at night or did not pay attention to the temperature.
There were also some people who were woken up by the cold in the middle of the night but were lucky enough to survive because they were covered with quilts.
Those who survived opened the windows and found that the outside was already white.
It snowed all night, but it still snowed happily.
When people go out, big snowflakes fall down, covering them in the blink of an eye.
Not to mention that it had been snowing all night, and it was as tall as half a person. If a person walked out, the shorter one would probably be buried in the snow.
A few days ago, order in the city was still there, so some streets organized manpower to shovel the snow on various roads to make it easier for people to walk.
However, as soon as the front was shoveled, a thick layer accumulated in the back.
Accidents caused by snowstorms occur frequently everywhere, causing many people to be unable to go to work normally.
And now, there is still an hour before the hail falls.
Shi Jiang picked up the phone and checked the time.
Time passed by, and at noon, the hail fell on time.
Seeing the hailstone that was bigger than a human fist, Shi Mu's mouth opened so wide that she couldn't close it for a moment.
In her old age, this was the first time she saw such a big hailstone in this city.
When I saw the hail hitting the cover on the air conditioner's outdoor unit, I was immediately thankful.
"Luckily your dad is smart, otherwise, the outdoor air conditioner unit I just bought would have been smashed into holes."
Shi Jiang was thinking, should she take advantage of today to fish in troubled waters, or should she fish in troubled waters in a few days when the entire city goes on strike?
The hail was getting bigger and bigger, and many people who were walking outside downstairs had their heads smashed by the sudden hail and their blood was everywhere.
Some people were even hit so hard that they were lying on the ground, unable to move. It must have been hit in an important part, causing them to fall into coma.
There were also those cars parked outside, with their blaring sirens, and their roofs and front hoods full of potholes, which looked very scary.
Feeling the plummeting temperature, Shi's mother calmly took out her thermal underwear and down jacket, stuffed them into the hands of Shi's father and Shi Jiang, and asked them to change clothes quickly to avoid getting cold.
By the time Jiang and the others had just changed their clothes, the hail outside had already fallen several layers thick, and they were densely packed, one foot high.
"Let's eat big bone soup tonight. The big bones are full of meat."
When Shi's mother thought about the food in the space, she couldn't help but feel a little wandering.
After all, such a large space was almost filled by her.
So, while it’s just getting colder today and it’s not too cold yet, let’s eat something good as a family.
If their family cooks meat again, the neighbors will probably knock on their door if they smell it.
Therefore, Shi Mu is going to cook more and put it in the space.
When you want to eat, take it out, scoop out a bowl and drink it, and the aroma will not spread out the door immediately.
Shi Jiang nodded, took the mobile phone of Shi's father and mother, took out the card directly from the phone, broke it off and threw it into the trash can, and replaced it with two new mobile phone cards.
"What...what is this for?"
Seeing Shi Jiang do this, Shi's father and mother were a little dumbfounded.
"Dad, I know you have many friends, but our current situation is not suitable for living with others. Whether you call me cold or cold-blooded, I just hope that you and mom can live well."
Shi Jiang raised his head, glanced at them, and said coldly.
Hearing what their daughter said, the couple simultaneously thought of what their daughter had suffered. They couldn't help but think about many of the human experiences that their daughter had experienced after their death. They immediately felt sorry for Shi Jiang. How could they blame their daughter?
What.
"Okay, in this situation anyway, we can only take care of ourselves."
Thinking of the contact numbers on his cell phone, Shi's father sighed and asked each other to be happy!
Speaking of the first day of the blizzard, Shi's father and Shi's mother had not fully felt the impact of the severe weather.
However, by the third day, the snow outside had already accumulated as high as a person.
Even if people are organized to clean and shovel the snow on the street, the snow will not fall faster.
"Dad, I want to go out."
Shi Jiang had originally thought about going out to fish in troubled waters on the first night, but Shi's mother did not agree, mainly because the hail was so big that Shi's mother was afraid of hitting her daughter.
On the second day, the street people even knocked on the door to register the people living there, so that effective rescue could be provided in case the snow disaster became serious.
Now on the third day, no one comes out on the street.
And, most importantly, their lights that were still on suddenly went out.
It's not that the wires were crushed, after all, the wires and cables now run from underground pipes.
Mainly the equipment at the power supply station was crushed by the snow.
As a result, all the power supplies in the Chunwan Garden area were cut off, but mobile phones could still access the Internet. Shi Jiang checked and found that the power supply bureau had not given an exact time for repairs.
"It's still too dangerous. What if we are discovered?"
When the father heard what his daughter said, he looked at her worriedly and said.
"Don't worry, I will be careful. Don't tell mom, just tell me to go back to the original house and get some things."
Shi Jiang glanced towards the bedroom. Because it was cold and there was no electricity, Shi's mother went to bed after dinner.
"Okay, come back early and be careful."
Shi's father also looked back, thought about it, and nodded in response.
Without gasoline and diesel, those generators you bought will be of no use.
I didn't feel it deeply before, but now that the power is out, the air conditioner can no longer be used, and the temperature in the house keeps dropping.
Even though several braziers were burned, the temperature was only slightly higher than the outside temperature.
Moreover, when burning charcoal, the house cannot be sealed. As a result, the cold wind mixed with snow from outside will continue to penetrate into the house, making it even more difficult for the temperature of the room to rise.
If you have gasoline or diesel, you can use a generator, so that your home's air conditioner can be turned on normally to keep warm.
Shi Jiang nodded, got dressed and put on a mask, opened the door with a shovel and walked out.
Because of the power outage, we had to go down the stairs.
When I walked all the way to the door of the first floor, I saw that there was already half a person's height of snow at the door. If it took a few more hours, the door would probably be buried.
Shi Jiang immersed himself in shoveling the snow, and soon shoveled out a path that could be passed by one person.
Looking up, there was a pile of snow about half a person's height at the door of each building. However, when Shi Jiang shoveled it to the roadside, he could clearly feel that there was much less snow on these roads.
It must be because someone kept shoveling snow back and forth before.
