Chapter 404: Isolation from the World
After taking a shower, the crowd gathered outside in the common room. The bathroom below is washed together like a public bathroom, so the man and the woman wash separately, and you can do it twice. And most of the girls came this time, so Qin Yi and Hualong washed later. After washing, the girls were already chatting hotly.
"I'm relieved to see that you weren't affected by the earthquake. Qin Yi replied with a smile, sat down next to Xia Yuxin, and then kissed her lightly on the forehead.
"Isn't there no earthquake? Seeing the two of them so close, Li Sisi pursed his lips and said a little unpleasantly, "We are discussing, where does the water in this place come from, is it from you?"
"No, there's a separate living area down there. Qin Yi explained, looking around. It is said to be an air-raid shelter, but it is actually no different from a hotel, except that it has no windows and only one floor.
Although the equipment is not very luxurious, it is much more neat and clean than the kind of roadside hotel that costs more than 100 yuan a night, everything should be available, and there is no hidden pinhole camera.
"Can it operate independently?" Hua Long's eyes flashed with excitement, "It means that even if the world above perishes, will there be water and electricity below!?"
"yes. Qin Yi replied with a smile, "Here is the geothermal generator adopted, the power generation speed is relatively slow, but it can be sustainable." Now the electricity is still used before, and when the charged power is used up, it will enter a power-saving state, and the lights will be forced to turn off after 10 o'clock in the evening, and all unnecessary equipment will stop supplying power. β
"What about the water?" Tang Xueying asked curiously, Qin Yi pointed to the top of his head, "Drawn from groundwater, there is also a water circulation system underneath. The water we used for bathing and the usual domestic sewage will be purified underneath and then recycled. Combined with groundwater, it can basically achieve perfect circulation. So, it is possible to live forever below. β
"Wow, that's amazing!" Hua Long couldn't help but say excitedly, and Mingyue then asked, "What about the food? How to solve it? You can't just drink water, right?"
Qin Yi stood up and waved to them to follow, then came to the door of a warehouse, stretched out his hand to scan their fingerprints, and after the door opened, Qin Yi let them look inside.
Everyone was in an uproar: the warehouse was piled up with all kinds of canned food and bagged food, and the entire warehouse was full, and this warehouse was more than 100 square meters, just looking at it made people feel a sense of security.
"The food here is enough for 40 people to live for two years if you save a little bit. Qin Yi explained, "Those bags are basically compressed biscuits, and one piece can provide the energy needed for a day." As for cans, there's basically everything. β
"Forty people can live for two years...... Nine of us can live for nearly ten years, right?" Chang Qi said in amazement, "This is really amazing, but what if we don't wait for rescue after ten years?"
Qin Yi smiled and waved his hand to them, and then led them to the door of another room and let them look inside. It's like a greenhouse, filled with all sorts of shelves and pots.
"This place has some vacuum-treated seeds, tomatoes, potatoes and some greens that can be planted here when the time comes. There is also a farm next door, and there are also some frozen eggs that can be hatched when the time comes, and chickens are raised here, which can provide eggs and meat. Qin Yi replied with a smile, "It's very easy to survive here for forty or fifty years." β
"Oh-" Everyone sighed, and Li Sisi asked in astonishment: "These things...... How much does this bomb shelter cost? As you said, the vacuum-treated eggs and frozen eggs are expensive, aren't they?"
"Actually, it's fine, you see. With that, Qin Yi opened the cabinet next to him and let Li Sisi look at the seeds and eggs inside, which were actually only the size of a detonator, "The number of seeds and eggs is very small, only enough to grow a small batch." The aim is for us to survive for a while with those cans and develop agriculture during that time. β
"That's expensive, isn't it? It's four or five hundred square meters, to say the least. Li Sisi frowned.
"No, this underground is not like the ground for hundreds of thousands of square meters, the land below is free, and when I bought the house above, the land below was theoretically mine. Qin Yi explained, "The furniture is not very expensive, and those canned foods are also very cheap, and the total is estimated to be hundreds of thousands." What is really expensive is the generator, the water circulation and the air circulation system. β
Saying that, Qin Yi replied with a smile: "So, the total cost is about 20 million, including the villas above." β
"That's how they gave you 20 million things?" asked Li Sisi in disbelief.
"That's the benefit of being a human resource. Qin Yi touched Li Sisi's brain and smiled, "Have you seen 2012? Rich people need a billion euros to buy a ticket on Noah's Ark, but those who are selected from all walks of life can get a ticket for free." If you want to be like your teacher, you should strive to be a human resource from all walks of life, right?"
"Tsk, that's too...... Li Sisi slapped Qin Yi's hand away and said angrily, and sat down on the sofa again.
"Okay, anyway, everyone has gone through it below, and the time is almost gone, it's time to go to bed?" Qin Yi smiled happily, "Look, it's past ten o'clock now, go to bed and look at your phone, get ready to sleep, right?"
"What kind of mobile phone are you looking at, there is no signal...... Li Sisi hugged the pillow and muttered, Qin Yi took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and found that there was indeed no signal, he didn't think too much about it at the time, and replied: "Maybe it's because of the earthquake above, so the mobile employees are also on vacation." Or if there is a problem with a nearby power pole due to an earthquake, this situation is unavoidable. β
"So, in short, you don't have to expect a signal from below these days. Li Sisi sighed a little desperately and said, "Is it too late for me to go to the government's shared shelter now? β
"Then watch the movie. Qin Yi said, pointing to the white screen in the common room, "This is actually a screening room, although they are all old movies from the past, but don't complain at this time, let's just take a break." Or you can go to bed early and I'll go up tomorrow to see how it goes, maybe ......"
Speaking of this, there was a distant roar overhead, as if a giant beast was roaring above them, and people couldn't help but feel a little frightened. It is clear that the aftermath of the earthquake is still going on.
"Don't, I'm worried that it won't be safe...... Xia Yuxin finally spoke at this time, "There is still an earthquake up there, although it is not very strong, but what if it is hit by something? Let's bear with it, it's only three days anyway." β
"That's right, some people are really selfish, and they obviously come to take refuge and ask so much. Tang Xueying rolled her eyes and said angrily, Li Sisi replied with wide and beautiful eyes at that time: "What are you talking about!? I told you to say it directly, don't beat around the bush and scold Huai, what I hate the most is you!"
"I'm just talking about you, is there anyone else?" Tang Xueying turned her head and said angrily, "You think you're here for a vacation, so many requests, do you want to book you a presidential suite." The teacher kindly let us take refuge here, so why don't you go to your aunt with your parents to take refuge?
"You ......" Li Sisi gritted his teeth, obviously poked in the sore spot. Because Li Sisi really didn't want to see her aunt show off, she didn't go. Li Sisi's parents actually don't have many relatives, and this time it was her aunt who invited them to go to Hainan to "take refuge" together. Of course, it is said that it is to take refuge, but in fact, it is to play, and the purpose of bringing their family is of course to show off.
Although Li Sisi's aunt was punctured by Qin Yi before, and Li Sisi's family knew that her life was not so smooth, but there was no way to stop her aunt from showing off, after all, the purpose of marrying a rich man was of course to enjoy a luxurious life, and her husband was cheating and the like, so she was obviously mentally prepared for a long time.
As for Qin Yi, they can only live an isolated life under this for the time being. The fact that the mobile phone has no signal and can't access the Internet is actually secondary, what really makes Qin Yi uneasy is that he has cut off contact with the outside world, and he doesn't know what the situation in the city above is.
"Alright, stop arguing. Qin Yi frowned and persuaded, pressing on the top of Li Sisi and Tang Xueying's heads.
"I just think this guy is really, complaining from the beginning until now. Tang Xueying glared at Li Sisi angrily and replied, "What are you doing? Aren't you angry here just because your aunt came to show you again? What is the matter with the teacher? Are you happy to be angry by hurting the people who care about you? Are you happy to be angry with the people who care about you? Are you happy in your heart? It's really naΓ―ve ......?"
"Alright. Qin Yi scratched Tang Xueying's little nose and said, "Anyway, let's go to bed today, it's not too early." Lie in bed for a while, listen to music and fall asleep. You have a song on your phone, right?"
In short, he finally coaxed this group of little ancestors to sleep, and Qin Yi also returned to his room.
Of course, he still shares a room with Xia Yuxin. So when he went back, Xia Yuxin had already made the bed and lay down, and there were two specifications of the room here, one was a bunk camp bed, which was used for those who were single, and the other was a double bed for couples, but the area of the room was actually about the same, and the furniture was the same, but the difference was between the beds.
"It's really hard for you, with so many children......" After Qin Yi got into bed, Xia Yuxin leaned on his shoulder and sighed, "I'm a little scared when I see these children like this...... What if our children are naughty in the future?"
"It's not their fault. Qin Yi kissed her lightly on the face and smiled, "This is a state of mind, the earthquake means disaster, plus the closed environment below will make people feel bored, coupled with the sound of earthquakes coming from the top of the head from time to time, these are easy to make people psychologically depressed." It's just that Sisi's girl has a straighter personality and reflects it faster. β
"So that's ......" Xia Yuxin said in a low voice, hugging Qin Yi's waist.
"Yes, in such an environment, after a long time, not only Sisi, but everyone's psychological state will have problems. When people's minds are distorted, they will do things that are irrational. That's why this kind of shelter was established, so that many people could take refuge underneath together. Qin Yi looked around and said, "People are social animals, and only constant communication can ensure that the mind is in a normal state." So you know, what is really needed in the last days, besides food and water, is a psychiatrist. β
"Then we're lucky to have you. Xia Yuxin pursed her lips and smiled, glanced at him affectionately, and then lowered her head a little embarrassed. Qin Yi pinched her ears and whispered, "The sound insulation down here is actually very good......
Of course, Xia Yuxin understood his hint, and suddenly her face turned red, and she glared at him with some complaint: "That...... Think it's just to vent the pressure in your heart, right?"
"Well, you're absolutely right. Sex can indeed release pressure, so in many apocalyptic movies, the hero and heroine will ...... in stressful situations," Qin Yi said, winking at Xia Yuxin.
"Oh, don't take an inch......" Xia Yuxin didn't have a good airway, lay down on the bed, and opened her arms to Qin Yi.
