Chapter 227 The wonderful use of peppermint candies
This is a foreign program, and what she was shown was really... Why, do all people in your country have to be able to sing?
There are so many amateurs who can sing well. Even more than the live chorus, she especially likes to watch the clips of online chorus videos that will be broadcast on the show.
It was really interesting to see so many amateurs singing songs imaginatively, to see the reactions of the guests and celebrities, and to see the joyful atmosphere.
It made her throat feel itchy, and she started humming along with the songs she knew.
Well, if you can't hit the high notes, why don't you let me hum a few times?
She searched the name of the show on her hard drive and found that it was actually in its fifth season. There were quite a few episodes in each season, which was enough to watch for a while.
The frost outside the window was getting thicker day by day. She stayed alone in the warm hut and lived her little life happily day by day.
Day after day, soon, there is only one week left before the end of July.
If we have to find comfort in the worst apocalypse, it would be that there are traces of weather changes - only within the same natural disaster stage.
Like the previous high temperature stage, the main concern was the weather temperature, and the heavy rain stage was about the temperature and water accumulation height. The current extreme cold is also about the daily minimum temperature and snow accumulation increase.
These can all be recorded and compiled into data, and fortunately, these data are usually quite regular.
Like the current extreme cold phase, from the beginning of June to the end of July now, the temperature has steadily dropped by one degree per day.
Just, a small degree every day, a big step to freeze to death^^.
So far, according to the system broadcast, the lowest temperature has exceeded minus 80 degrees.
terrible.
She looked through the recorded data. The highest temperature during the high temperature period was eighty degrees - above zero - but looking at the current trend, it felt like it was more than that.
According to the system's estimates, the extreme cold will last until the end of September and October. If it continues to be like this once a day, maybe the ice age will reappear, right?
——She happened to watch an animated movie about the Ice Age recently. The movie was very interesting, but when combined with the current situation, she couldn't laugh.
In the frozen hut, she turned on the heating at full speed. Sometimes she would stare blankly at the frozen creases in the window, wondering what the scene would be like outside.
In fact, it’s not hard to imagine. It’s still the same as before, and the overwhelming snow is shaking the world.
I don’t know if anyone is still trekking to the official base on the road, I don’t know if the snowpacking truck is still working, I don’t know where the snow has risen...
She originally thought that she might feel anxious after losing sight of the outside world and everything became unknown, but when she actually stopped cleaning windows, she still feels good until now.
Even, in the closed cabin, she suddenly enjoyed life very much and felt that her little life isolated from the world was very comfortable.
Maybe, I have found some kind of comfort zone.
A music variety show was playing on the projector. She was twisting her shoulders to the music and sucking on a sweet and spicy duck wing.
I've been loving duck lately. I have duck necks and wings on duck racks. I copy a lot of them from specialty stores in various shopping malls, and I eat them in different ways every day.
Because she has space at her disposal and can achieve an unlimited supply, she is afraid that she will not have enough to eat and eating too much will be harmful to her health, so she specially chooses the kind sold in boxes to eat.
Just eat one box a day, not more.
In this box of duck wings, she also twisted off the connecting cartilage in advance as usual, separated the middle of the big wing and the tip of the small wing, put them in the space, and took one out directly when eating.
The left hand is gloved and chewed, leaving the right hand free for other things.
For example, change the program, get a drink, or pause the program to play on the phone for a while.
Originally, duck wings could be placed on the small table next to the bed - the revolving table sandwiched between the bed and the corridor wall - but she always likes to eat these duck wings cold.
Now that the weather is cold, she finally added a baseboard heater on this side of the bed, placing it toward the foot of the bed.
If you put this box of duck wings on a small table, they should be heated up in a short time.
She had already adjusted the temperature. Since it was close to the bed, it would not be too hot. The main purpose was to isolate the coldness that was faintly coming from the wall.
——No matter how good the insulation materials are in the house, there is no guarantee that no cool air will enter the room when the outside temperature is as low as minus 80 degrees Celsius.
Even now when she plays with the computer, she has to add a small heater between the computer and the wall. Otherwise, she always feels a looming coldness on her face.
Her back was warmed by the heater, but the coolness on her front was even more obvious, which made her feel weird.
To be honest, after the lowest temperature dropped to about minus 60 degrees, she felt it was already magical.
There seems to be no difference between minus 70 degrees and minus 80 degrees, they both belong to the extremely cold period.
But when it actually falls on the body, you can clearly feel it, it is different, very different.
Every day the temperature drops is like a reminder, the coldness becomes more and more obvious.
She lamented, why haven’t you learned from experience yet? The same is not true during the high temperature stage.
She felt at that time that after the temperature reaches 50 degrees above zero, it is already in the extreme range. How much hotter can it get.
As a result, the temperature continued to rise after that, and she realized firsthand that, well, it could still be as hot as the sun.
It didn't take too long. I lived too comfortably and without worries, so I forgot about it?
He gnawed the bones cleanly with no trace of meat left in his mouth, and sent them directly back to the space to decompose. Then he used his consciousness to scan the space and found that this was the last one for today.
She smacked her lips in regret, rinsed the spicy taste in her mouth with iced Coke, then stepped into the space, took off her gloves, washed her hands, rinsed her mouth, and finally returned to bed with a piece of passion fruit mint in her mouth.
With candy on her tongue, she took a sip of water and sucked it in. The candy that slowly released the mint smell was submerged, and the water in her mouth became cold.
When I swallowed it again, my throat filled with spicy taste instantly felt refreshed.
This is a tip she accidentally discovered by eating mints to freshen the mouth. It not only refreshes the mouth, but also makes the throat and esophagus feel comfortable.
Most people don't tell her.
After all, after eating something with a strong flavor, no matter how much you use mouthwash, the only thing that is fresh is your mouth. The food in your throat is still heavily seasoned, and no matter how much water or drinks you drink, it will not be able to hold it down.
But eating mints and drinking some water like this is really useful. I feel refreshed from the outside to the inside.
Just drink water at room temperature. You don’t need to drink more. Just hold it in your mouth for a while. After swallowing, you will feel cool and light all over.
