Chapter 19: Life on the Farm
After feeding all the cubs, Meng Ren took the watering can and began to water the crops, and the entire thousands of square meters of crops had to be watered, which was really not an easy project.
Fortunately, it's very rewarding to watch these vegetables grow day by day, so the whole process doesn't seem boring.
It took two hours for Meng Ren to take care of the work on the farm.
After these three days of growth, small seedlings have grown in each piece of farmland, especially leeks and shallots, and the ground is already green, and I believe it will not take long to harvest for the first time.
"Awesome!"
Looking at the large farmland in front of him, Meng Ren's heart couldn't help but feel a full sense of accomplishment.
In the era of extreme heat, the high temperature of more than 50 degrees Celsius has caused countless plants to die, and it is already extremely difficult to cultivate the land outside.
Not to mention vegetables, it won't be long before even a single piece of fresh grass is hard to see in the outside world.
I'm afraid that only I can have fresh vegetables to eat in the world.
The corners of Meng Ren's mouth couldn't help but sketch a smile, he came to the shooting range, took out a compound bow and began to practice archery.
Arrows, bow draws, archery!
The whole process was repeated dozens of times, until his arm was sore, and then Meng Ren ended his daily archery training.
He rubbed his aching arm, and his mind moved back to the real world.
I looked at the time, and it was already noon at this time.
Today is the fourth day, and the temperature outside is even hotter than yesterday, and it has reached a high temperature of sixty degrees, and the scorching sun is swaying down from that round of red sun, making the entire Yunhai City in a transpiration.
The heat distorted the air, and the bricks and pavement were so hot that walking on such hot ground with shoes in place would be enough to melt the rubber on the soles of the shoes.
Meng Ren opened the curtain and glanced at the outside world, only to see that the entire Yunhai City was already silent, and the city outside seemed to be as red as hell on earth.
The lotus pond in the community has long since dried up, and the green belt on the road has also withered yellow, and there is not even a trace of green.
Three days of terrifying heat have sunburned all the plants in the city that were exposed to the sun.
"It's terrifying!"
Although it was not the first time he had seen it, this hellish scene on earth still shocked Meng Ren's heart.
He turned on the TV, and the midday news was reporting today's news.
"Dear audience and friends, today is the fourth day of unusually hot weather, because four consecutive days of high temperatures have caused a large area of Antarctic glaciers to melt, sea levels to rise, and so far, coastal cities have been flooded in large areas."
"But please don't worry, the government has already started to organize disaster relief, please don't loot supplies and try to maintain order." The anchor tries to make his tone appear as calm as possible.
But the anchors on the TV were sweating profusely, and even the air conditioning in the broadcast studio couldn't lower the terrifying heat.
When Meng Ren saw the news, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Despite the efforts of the authorities to provide relief, the power of the individual is still too small in the face of the power of nature.
What's more, the Age of Extreme Heat is not a disaster for a single city, but a global nature, and how can even soldiers with a strong will run around in a hot climate of more than sixty degrees.
There is still a slight maintenance of order in society, but this maintenance will not last for a few days.
Thinking so, Meng Ren turned on the computer to check the information on the Internet.
Sure enough, because of the extreme heat for four consecutive days, there have been many worries and complaints on the Internet.
[It's too hot, no, I just can't stand it.] 】
[Who has supplies, the things in my house are almost finished, who is willing to sell me a little supplies. 】
[Didn't the official say that this extremely hot weather will pass soon? Why is it that it is now the fourth day, and the temperature can't help but not decrease, but is getting worse and worse? 】
[It can't be that the end of the world is really coming, right? 】
Wails began to appear on the Internet, and many people had a deep sense of concern in their words.
Not everyone has hoarded a huge amount of supplies like him, and four days is enough for those who are not rich in supplies to start running out of food.
"The chaos is coming soon!"
"According to the experience of previous lives, in three days at most, the entire social order will begin to collapse, and then there will be large-scale looting incidents in places such as supermarkets across the country." Meng Ren squinted.
There is no fluctuation in his heart, under the end of the day, they are all sweeping the snow in front of their own doors, who can take care of others.
Toot toot!
The phone rang, and it was a video from Tian Wenqian again.
The video is connected, and both appear in front of each other.
Tian Wenqian's gaze fell on Meng Ren, and the expression on her face was ugly.
She was dressed cooler today, but her whole body was sweating profusely, and she looked like she was sweating like rain, as if she had just been fished out of the water.
"Ah Ren, when are you coming to pick me up?"
Tian Wenqian looked at Meng Ren in the video, he was lying comfortably on the bed watching a movie, obviously they are all people, why is there such a big gap between the two sides.
I live in hell on my side, but I feel as if Meng Ren is living in heaven.
A look of jealousy appeared in Tian Wenqian's eyes.
Meng Ren was lying on the sofa contentedly, he frowned: "Why did you call again?" ”
"Ah Ren, you really misunderstood me, the photo that Xiaoyu showed you was not me at all, it was Xiaoyu who deliberately slandered me!"
"We've known each other for so many years, don't you know me? How could I possibly do something like that? Tian Wenqian showed a weak and pitiful expression, as if there were tears surging in her eyes, and looked at Meng Ren with sad eyes.
In the past, when she showed such a gaze, Meng Ren would definitely show a distressed expression and coax her.
In her four years of college, she used this trick to be described as unsuccessful.
Hehe!
Meng Ren sneered in his heart, this woman really thought she was a fool and came up with such a shoddy excuse.
"I'm sorry, but I still can't accept this." Meng Ren shook his head, he pretended to show a sad expression: "Wen Qian, although I want to believe you, the photo will not be faked. ”
"Let's just treat each other as if we've never known each other, and you won't contact me again in the future."
After saying this, Meng Ren pretended to be ready to hang up the phone.
Tian Wenqian on the other end was anxious, and she hurriedly said, "Ah Ren, I really didn't lie to you. ”
"How are you going to trust me?"
