I Plant A Field In The Last Days

Chapter 368: Ice Retrieval Plan

But Lu Yuan didn't say what he said. After all, only he knew these things. If they were said, they might be exposed.

So he had no choice but to stop talking, just as a boring suggestion he made to relieve the boredom of his family.

Everyone is still doing what to do, and find something to do for yourself if nothing happens.

In late April, the overcast clouds in the sky became more dense, giving people a particularly depressive feeling, so everyone felt that it would snow, but after a long time it was always overcast, just not snowing.

This made Zhou Chen very uncomfortable.

"Brother, why isn't it snowing yet? I still want to make a snowman!"

"What snowman! Isn't it cold enough? It's a mess! Stay at home, I'll get some water outside!"

After speaking, Zhou Tong changed into his own down jacket and went out.

In order to prevent the water source from being used up, Lu Yuan deliberately dug a double-layered reservoir near their private cave. Because of the cold weather, Lu Yuan added some smoke to the water to prevent it from being frozen. However, the taste of this water is a bit unpleasant, and if you drink too much, you will be particularly thirsty, but fortunately, it is better than using it without water.

Zhou Tong stared at the cold wind and walked to the entrance of the cave with the bucket, took out the key and gently opened the door.

The cave was pitch black, and in order to prevent people from falling into the water, they also built a fence outside.

Zhou Tong held the fence and slowly threw the bucket into the puddle to get water, and then after throwing it down, he could hear the sound of water "plop", but today Zhou Tong felt very curious.

Because after the bucket was dropped, it didn't come into contact with water.

"Huh? This water is used so quickly? No?" Zhou Tong took out a flashlight and took a picture inside with some suspiciousness.

I saw a huge pit in the dark cave appeared in front of me, and there was no water inside, only the rope hung on the railing swayed slightly, and a wooden barrel falling below shook back and forth.

"Fuck! Who did it? Drained the water?"

Zhou Tong was annoyed for a while, he was still waiting to take the water back to make some delicious food for the girl, and wash the clothes by the way, but he didn't expect the water to run out, which made him a little uncomfortable.

At this time, there was another noise outside, and Han Wen, wearing a heavy cotton-padded coat, walked in with a bucket, and greeted someone when he saw someone inside.

"Oh, there are people today! These two days have made me boring and spoiled. Have time to go to my place to play cards?"

When Han Wen walked closer, he saw Zhou Tong, who was full of depression, lying in front of the railing and shining inward with a flashlight.

"Zhou Dage, what are you looking for? Did something fall into the water?"

"Hey! Don't mention it! See for yourself! There is no water!"

Hearing Zhou Tong's words, Han Wen quickly took off his own hat, and then quickly walked to the front. Just the light of the flashlight, Han Wen only saw a smooth puddle ground with the light of water, but some The place has completely dried up, exposing the steel plate.

"Who did it? Did someone from outside come and steal the water?"

Zhou Tong shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't been out recently. I only came out to take a look when the water at home ran out. I didn't expect the water to run out! Damn! It must be those guys! They like thieves!"

After finishing talking, Zhou Tong spit on the ground fiercely, only to find that he was already thirsty and couldn't vomit at all.

"No, Zhou Dage, give me the flashlight! Let me see!"

Zhou Tong heard the words in Hangeul and quickly gave her a flashlight.

Han Wen took a flashlight and took photos from the bottom of the pit for a long time. Finally, he found something wrong in a corner.

"Zhou Dage, look! There seems to be a crack there!"

Zhou Tong hurriedly widened his glasses and looked down. Sure enough, there was an inconspicuous hole in the corner. There was still water infiltrating below, and bubbles appeared from time to time.

"I'll go down and take a look!" Zhou Tong quickly took off his own jacket, and then jumped directly down the railing.

With a "bang," Zhou Tong landed steadily on the bottom of the pit, and with a flashlight in his mouth, he walked towards the crack just now.

Reaching out and touching among the cracks, Zhou Tong finally understood why the water had disappeared.

"Damn it! It's here! There is a pit under this! It is estimated that the iron sheet was squeezed by the ice outside!" Then he took a flashlight and took a picture of the corner. Sure enough, there were several places outside. They were all deformed, and the rocks inside began to bulge inwards, obviously frozen by the extremely cold weather outside.

"Go to Lu Yuan and discuss what to do if there is no water!"

Zhou Tong nodded, and the two walked towards Lu Yuan's house.

After knocking on the door a few times, Lu Yuan opened the door from inside and saw Zhou Tong and Han Wen coming in, so he hurried in.

"Oh! Rare customers! We're bored! Hurry up, come and play for a while! My mother-in-law just marinated some pork head meat, you guys have a taste! It happened to have a meal here too!"

However, Zhou Tong grabbed him.

"problem occurs!"

"Huh?" Lu Yuan quickly turned around and saw Zhou Tong take off his headgear with a frustrated expression.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

The Korean on the side had already taken off the headgear, and then said everything.

"I'm going! The iron sheet is rotten? This is bad! Isn't the water gone?"

Korean nodded: "Yes! Just now Zhou Dage looked at it. There is a half-meter-long hole in the corner, and the water flows out from there!"

At this time, Lu Yuan's family also surrounded them. After listening to these words, all of them were embarrassed. The water problem seemed to be imminent.

The people sat around the fire and discussed for a long time, and finally passed Lu Yuan's plan to go to the glacier to fetch water.

"The glacier is so far away from us, how should we get there? How can we get the ice back when it's gone? What should I use to get the ice back?" Xiaoshan asked Death three consecutive times.

Lu Yuan looked at Xiaoshan with a serious expression.

"First of all, we can only take the land to fetch water. Basically, the sea is already frozen. We may use this when transporting back the ice cubes!"

As he said, Lu Yuan twisted the computer screen, and everyone suddenly realized when they saw it.

"Sleigh? Haha! Niucha! That's a good idea! But now there is no ice on the land! How do we transport it back? There is no ice and snow on the ground. Could the sleigh be transported from the sea?"

Xiaoshan questioned again.

Lu Yuan was a little doubtful whether Xiaoshan had secretly tutored 100,000 whys, or else there were so many questions in her mind.

But fortunately, everyone at home also has this concern, but it didn't come to mind for a while, it was Xiaoshan who raised it first.

So Lu Yuan took out some photos he had stored before and showed them on the computer.

"Recently, I watched the sky at night and found..."

"Smelly boy, be more serious!" There was a reproachful look on Dad Lu's face. After all, it was not a joke at such a serious meeting.

Lu Yuan coughed slightly and said, "Okay! It's like this. The weather is a bit abnormal recently. Let me compare some cloud images I downloaded from the Internet and found that it might be snowing here recently!"

"What? It's going to snow? Really? It's been overcast for almost a month, and there isn't a small snowflake!"

"Yes! Weather forecasts are the most inaccurate, and you are not a professional weather expert. Even professional weather experts may not be able to accurately forecast information. How can you be sure that it will snow?"

"Yeah, Lu Yuan, if we really wait until it snows, how long do we have to wait? We are already imminent with the issue of water use, and if we don't get it done, it may really cause trouble!"

Everyone was chattering, but Zhou Chen beside Zhou Tong looked at Lu Yuan with excitement.

"Lu Yuan, Big Brother, are you true? Will it really snow?"

Lu Yuan nodded firmly: "Yes, I compared the weather clouds of several previous blizzards in the world, and found that our current clouds are basically similar to their previous clouds, and they are more serious, if I am not mistaken. The snow should fall in the next week, but since we are about 300 kilometers away from the glacier, we have to leave early this week!"

"Yeah! Great! It's finally snowing! I want to make a snowman!"

Zhou Tong gave Little Sister a fierce look: "Naughty, adults talk, children don't interrupt, it's cold, it will kill people to go out to make a snowman!"

Then he turned his head and asked Lu Yuan, "What if the snow continues to be delayed? Do we still have to wait for the snow to fall and then come back? What if the snow falls after a month? We have to prepare a surefire solution. That's okay! Can't just pass in such a muddle, it's a bit too difficult!"

Lu Yuan smiled: "It's not difficult, if the snow is really delayed, I have a second plan!"

With that, Lu Yuan ran back to the room, then took out a few wheels and placed them on the table."We can make some trailers and put these wheels under the sled. If it doesn't snow, we will turn the sled into a trailer. If it snows, these trailers will be unnecessary, and we will just paddle over the snow."

"What about the rift valley? It's more than a hundred meters away! If we take a long road, we have to climb the mountains and walk more than a hundred kilometers!"

Lu Yuan finally knew that no matter how thorough his thoughts were, he would always run into trouble. This reflected the benefits of discussing things together, because everyone's heads together would always be especially thoughtful.

"We can build a bridge ourselves!"

"What? Build it yourself? Are you crazy? How long will it take to build a bridge!"

Lu Yuan sighed. In fact, he had made preparations a long time ago, but he has not been able to use it now. Now that this matter is mentioned on the stage, he feels that he has to find a way to convince everyone.

So he took out the map and pointed.

"There is an abandoned construction site with a lot of tower cranes. If we remove all these tower cranes, it will be no problem to build a bridge by then! It's just a bit difficult to walk, but I have already thought about it. As long as the toughness of these steels meets the standard, we can basically accomplish the task."

After Lu Yuan finished speaking, everyone was silent. The toughness of this steel has become quite brittle in this extremely cold weather. It may break if you hit it lightly with a hammer, let alone build a hundred. The multi-meter-long bridge is basically an impossible task.

"Of course, I still have planB! That is to directly send the ice cubes to the bottom of the valley, then we climb to the other side, and then use the rope to transport the ice cubes up!"

Everyone is silent again, this idea is also a bit unrealistic, not to mention that they need a lot of water, that is, the ice cubes must be very heavy, and the strength of a few people is simply not enough to pull the ice cubes up.

"This doesn't work either! The ice cube is too heavy, if it doesn't hold it, it will break directly if it falls, and then we can play for nothing!"

Zhou Chen, who was sitting not far away, was silent for a long time, and finally took a good time and said, "Isn't it going to snow? How good will we eat by then?"

Everyone suddenly realized that the snow is made of water, and they are still thinking about how to get the ice over, which is simply adding a blockage to themselves.

However, Lu Yuan knew that this snow could not be eaten, because it was not so simple, because it contained a lot of toxic substances, which were caused by the condensation of harmful substances in some chemical plants from the previous high temperature weather. Yes, if they eat this snow, they will have no problem in a short time, but if they eat it for a long time, it will definitely cause a lot of problems, such as lead poisoning and mercury poisoning. These are all highly toxic things. It's going to die.

However, Lu Yuan could not directly reveal his secrets.

No, the family must come up with a better way.

After pondering for a long time, Lu Yuan stopped his family who was going to play cards.

"I think... this snow can't be eaten!"

Everyone looked at Lu Yuan one after another, wondering why he said that.

"I have encountered poisonous fog before, everyone should know it?"

Everyone nodded.

Han Wen said: "Yes, poisonous fog, we know, this thing is actually some lead and mercury compounds evaporated into the sky, and then reacted with some other substances to form compounds and aerosols, which dissolve in the air, but before it seemed to be down. After the rain, there should be no problem, right?"

Lu Yuan shook his head, "No, it's not that simple to get rid of this thing completely from the air! Moreover, this thing basically stays in the upper atmosphere, and the rain basically can't wash it away!"

"If you don't believe me, you can get something to measure! I remember that I brought some instruments from District 5 to detect toxic substances in the atmosphere!"
