Chapter 47 Cold Winter

For the next period of time, Luo Ji could be said to be working hard on the pulley, while thinking about the design of the city gate, feeling that his brain cells were dying every day. mad.

Such maddening days passed, and the weather was getting colder day by day. In the early morning of this day, Luo Ji, who was sleeping, suddenly shuddered, "Okay, it's so cold..."

Subconsciously tightening the animal skin quilt on his body, Luo Ji almost wanted to wrap himself into a zongzi, but he was completely unable to dispel the swept chill. The Mirror Tribe was completely frozen.

The moment Luo Ji got out of his tent, wrapped in the thick animal skin, the cold wind roaring in his face was like a handful of ice knives. The feeling of blowing on his face was no longer cold, but pain. !

This kind of skin is almost like the pain of being scratched by frostbite, so Luo Ji, who had already gradually adapted to this icy world, once again clearly felt the harsh living environment of this era.

It wasn't dawn yet, but almost the entire tribe was awake from the cold, and the cries of children could still be heard faintly. Luo Ji gritted his teeth, and the growing unease in his heart drove him He shouted, "Hurry up and take out all the coal that was hoarded before to make a fire, and then cook a few more pots of radish soup."

The temperature is so low that I can't sleep now, and if I go to sleep again, I'm afraid I won't be able to wake up! Under the command of Luo Ji, the Mingjing tribe quickly lit fires one after another. The temperature generated by the burning of the coal caused the temperature in the tribe to rise slightly, but Luo Ji was not optimistic at all. It was too cold. Even sitting by the fire, he felt that he was about to freeze, and even breathing became painful.

After the radish soup was cooked, he drank two bowls in a row, and the whole person finally felt a little better, "Cook more and let everyone in the tribe get a bowl of soup. After the soup is finished, boil the hot water, don't drink it. stop."

After speaking, Luo Ji stood up from the fire wrapped in animal skins, "Don't sit, everyone, stand up, and do more activities around the fire, so that your body will be warmer!"

Luo Ji was very afraid. He was afraid that some of his tribe's people would freeze to death or get sick. The disease might spread symptoms. At the same time, sick people could not work, which would lead to the tribe's work efficiency and development speed. Then the food supply and wood fuel also become insufficient due to the decline in work efficiency, everyone starts to be unable to eat enough, the body also becomes weak, more and more people get sick, and it completely falls into a negative cycle, and finally, towards destroy……

Shaking his head vigorously, he threw this bad guess out of his head. Luo Ji's originally perfect development plan was instantly disrupted by this ruthless nature.

What can he do now? What can he do other than make soup and remind his tribesmen to move their bodies and keep their body warm? A deep sense of powerlessness arises spontaneously.

"Think of a way! Hurry up and think of a way!" Sitting by the fire, Luo Ji almost forced his brain to start working. The weather was so cold that people couldn't sleep at all. ? At the same time, if you can't get enough rest, how can you get the energy to work the next day? This is simply the entrance to a negative cycle! Therefore, the problem of sleep and rest must be solved!

"Lighting a fire in a tent?" As soon as the thought arose, Luo Ji himself smashed it into pieces and threw it into a non-recyclable trash can. He was really frozen and stupid. The gas produced by burning coal is a harmful substance. He still knows common sense, lighting a fire in the tent, it is warm, but it is not far from death.

No, it's too cold, he feels like his mind is about to stop thinking, "Damn! I really want air conditioning and floor heating..."

This thought was more nonsense than lighting a fire in a tent, so he just thought about it in his head, but before he could laugh at himself, Luo Ji's expression suddenly froze, "Wait, floor heating?"

There was a faint flash of inspiration in his mind, it was a very subtle feeling, but Luo Ji knew that he might have found a breakthrough!

The whole mood clearly showed a hint of excitement. Luo Ji called two members of the tribe, quickly got into his tent, motioned them to dig a rectangular shallow hole on the ground inside the tent, and then asked them to take the two With a wooden stick, I picked a few hot coals from the fire outside and threw them into this shallow pit, followed by filling the shallow pit, and finally spread the animal skin on top, and it was done!

After waiting for a while, Luo Ji burrowed into the animal skin quilt, damn it! Is there heaven in here? ! No one cares about me, I've been here this winter!

However, the actual situation was that the next morning, Luo Ji woke up early as usual, even earlier than usual. He was so worried that he couldn't sleep well because he was worried about the condition of the tribe members. , which caused him to obviously lack sleep at the moment, and his whole spirit seemed a little sluggish.

After dawn, along with the rising of the sun, the temperature slightly warmed up, which made people feel a lot more comfortable. Luo Ji, who had not heard any bad news for a while, was a little relieved. After thinking about it carefully, he didn't need to be too pessimistic. Yesterday's countermeasures were fairly timely. People living in ancient times have been tested by so many harsh environments, and their physique should not be unable to hold up even for a while.

However, after thinking about it, when everyone got together for breakfast, Luo Ji emphasized to everyone that if anyone felt unwell, he must speak up as soon as possible.

At the same time, just to be on the safe side, Luo Ji also changed the original two meals a day to three meals a day, and added a hot soup at noon to ward off the cold. Although this will obviously increase the consumption of ingredients for their tribe, it only requires manpower The security is guaranteed, and the food problem can always find a solution.

In addition, Luo Ji was a little worried about the situation on the Black Rock Tribe. Because of this rapid cooling, the importance of coal has increased again, and the demand has also increased. Although the previous paragraph In time, Luo Ji had been hoarding the coal mined by the Heiyan tribe, but based on the consumption last night, he really didn't know how long it would last.

In this case, the top priority of their tribe had to be changed. Luo Ji asked the members of the logging team to temporarily stop their work, and then divided them into two groups. One group temporarily joined the mining team and rushed to the Heiyan tribe. On the one hand, speed up the mining of coal, and the other group rushed to the farmland where the white radish was discovered, and asked them to dig more white radish or other vegetable food. The development focus of the entire tribe began to focus on food and food. Coal offset.
