Chapter 37:
Just when everyone thought that the high temperature of 50 degrees was the limit, and they were gradually getting used to the heat, the temperature reached a new high. In just three days, the temperature rose directly from 489 to 50. Three or four, there is no process of adaptation for people at all, and the temperature in some places is even as high as fifty-five or six degrees due to the geographical environment.
But in a bunch of bad situations, there is not nothing to be happy about, that is, when the temperature exploded, the cockroaches that became a disaster some time ago finally stopped running to human residences. It seems that the temperature is too high to bear. So I ran to hide in a cool place underground, and people finally didn't need to worry about piles of cockroaches for the time being.
With the sudden rise in temperature, those slightly older air conditioners in the house completely went on strike. Even if the outside was covered, the high temperature could not be brought down. The explosion of the air conditioner happened, not to mention from the Internet, it was in the community where I lived, and I could hear the explosion several times a day.
If you are lucky, the explosion will explode, and there will be no other losses. If you are unlucky, it will definitely be a fire with extreme escape. If the fire occurs during the day, it will be really cold. If you don’t escape, you will die. It is also death, the sun can tan on the skin, and the skin can be cracked in two or three minutes, so many people dare not use the air conditioner at all during the day, and can only cook with the residual temperature of the air conditioner at night.
But even if it is residual temperature, the indoor temperature can be more than 30 degrees or even 40 degrees, especially those who live on the roof, which is no different from a sauna room. Open the door, it will only be hotter outside than inside. This day is very hot, and the water is consumed quickly. There are countless examples of dehydration and death due to too much heat. They would rather eat two sips of food and drink two more sips of water.
In just a few days, the spiritual outlook of the entire residents of Mu Nan's community has undergone earth-shaking changes. Before that, there were nocturnal people sitting downstairs, chatting while blowing on electric fans. The air-conditioned mahjong room is still operating normally. Because of the staggered time for receiving supplies, many people come in and out every night. The whole family chats while collecting things, and when they meet neighbors they know, they stop to talk about it. Sentences give back some information to each other.
But now, everyone looks tired, their lips are chapped, their eyes are dull, and their hair is stuck to their scalps. Some girls are fine, and some men have a strong body odor. You can smell the strong sweat on each other's body from a long distance away. There is no way to avoid this situation because you have to line up to receive supplies. Even if you keep fanning with a fan, the suffocating smell mixed with the suffocating temperature will really suffocate you.
Fortunately, the amount of supplies is limited, and if you are notified of the date to pick it up, there will definitely be one, so when queuing up at the supermarket, everyone tacitly keeps a little distance from each other, although at this time everyone Almost, don't dislike anyone, but you can't ignore the smell of the other person because you can't dislike others, so you can feel a little better if you are farther away.
Knowing that the situation outside is difficult, Mu Nan didn't bring that kind of misting fan when he went out. At this time, he can still spray water to cool down. Maybe he will become a fat sheep in the eyes of others. However, he still brought that kind of cooling wipes, otherwise it would be so hot, even if there is no sun at night, he would still suffer from heat stroke, so he was always prepared to take it with him.
Just as they were queuing, a woman in front suddenly fell to the ground. The woman should have come to collect the supplies by herself. After she fell, no one she knew stepped forward, and even the people in front and behind immediately retreated and stood guard. The soldiers of the supermarket order rushed over and carried the fainted people aside for emergency cooling. The current 120 is basically unable to get through. A community can faint a dozen people a day, a district, a city, How many people get dizzy every day? It is luck to be able to get an ambulance.
And the woman who just fainted is obviously suffering from heatstroke, sweating, convulsions, cramps and pains, which is a typical reaction to heat stroke. If she can get medical help at this time, she might even save her life. Organ failure and death. Since the high temperature, I don’t know how many people have died like this. The number of deaths has long been higher than that of the previous poisonous mycelium infection. Some people even saw three or four people who fell to the ground and finally died when they went out at night. , so most people are numb to this kind of sudden collapse.
In the end, it was estimated that the phone could not be connected, so a soldier carried him into a military vehicle and sent him directly to the hospital.
The supplies in front continued to be distributed normally, and there were some rustling conversations in the crowd, but they soon became quiet again. Xu Ming, who was standing behind Qin Huai and the others, couldn't help but said, "That man can't be saved."
Mu Nan turned to look at him, and Xu Ming sighed: "In the past, the medical treatment was not so stressful, and we could do our best to save this kind of heat stroke that had obviously produced convulsive reactions, but now, the hospital can't save it at all. If you send it away, you’ll just wait to die.”
Although he is not a human doctor, there are some things in common. The woman's heatstroke reaction just now is a manifestation of excessive temperature in the organs. It is estimated that she has been so dizzy and uncomfortable for at least a day or two, but some people I always want to endure it, or take a break and drink more water, maybe I will be fine, but in the end, once the reaction gets worse, it is a signal that the body can't bear it completely. When encountering today's tense medical resources, only one died .
Generally high temperature heatstroke, except for frail and elderly people who will suddenly feel aggravated or fainted in a short period of time, such as within one or two hours, most of them actually have aura, such as palpitation, dizziness, nausea, or even abdominal pain and discomfort. In fact, you should be alert to this kind of situation. It is best to go to the hospital immediately, or simply stay in the air-conditioned room and don’t go out again. But many people think it’s just too hot, so they feel a little dizzy. Take a rest and the situation will ease. Don't take it seriously, or feel that this degree of discomfort can be tolerated, and continue to work and live normally, but you don't know that you have heatstroke when you have mild symptoms.

After Xu Ming gave them a little science education, he emphasized: "So if there is such a symptom, either stay in the air-conditioned room and drink plenty of water, take some medicine to relieve heat, or go to the hospital and wait until you really can't stand it and faint. , I was able to save it before, but now it is equivalent to stepping on both feet in the coffin, don't be negligent because of a small problem."
Jian Chu sighed deeply, thinking about the girl just now, and thinking about the future, she just felt flustered.
Among them, Xu Ming only knew that Jian Chu worked outside. He didn't know what the jobs of Qin Huai and his brothers were, but they didn't have to go out. Yu Zibai worked at home, so he asked Jian Chu Said: "You who work outside, especially you should pay more attention."
Jian Chu heard the words and sighed again: "What class is there? I was dismissed yesterday, and now I'm squatting at home."
Mu Nan saw that he was downcast, so he comforted him: "It's better to stay at home at this time and be safer. Now that the state distributes water and supplies, I will never die of hunger."
Jian Chu smiled at him when he heard the words: "Fortunately, the supplies are being distributed now, and five packs of noodles will be eaten for three days, so at least one meal can be full every day."
To be honest, he actually envies Mu Nan quite a bit. This kind of envy can be regarded as human nature. When he was closed at home before, he could see that their family conditions are good, and he doesn’t need to worry about money. If they sell it, their family can afford it. His brother seems to be capable and protects him. In such a hot day, everyone has a sour smell, and although they are also sweaty, they have a faint smell. The smell of toilet water, facing such a gap in life, if you say you don't have the slightest envy, it's a big heart.
But it's just envy, envy at this time, the closeness of the two brothers who depend on each other for life, and he himself doesn't know if he will have the opportunity to show his heart in this life.
Hearing his sigh, Yu Zibai took out a piece of paper and wiped his sweat for him: "Now I rely on the state to support me, and I can rest at home with peace of mind. If the government abandons the masses because of the current harsh environment, then there is no need to worry, everyone. Let's die together."
Jian Chu took the paper, and Yu Zibai asked the people behind him, "Do you want it? Wipe off your sweat?"
Xu Ming smiled: "I brought it, no need."
Qin Huai also shook his head at him: "We have it." Even paper is very expensive now, if they have it themselves, there is no need to use someone else's.
Jian Chu turned her head lightly, looking at the empty road without a car due to the high temperature, lack of supplies, and lack of oil, sighed silently, with indiscriminate gentleness, reluctant to let go, the worst thing.
The front line was delayed for a while, because a man took his father's ID card and wanted to pick it up on his behalf, saying that his father was too old to go out in such a hot day, but there were regulations above that he could not pick it up on his behalf. , If there is a problem, the community will be responsible, so of course it is impossible to distribute supplies here, probably because it is too hot, and life is too difficult. The man couldn't hold back his temper, and after yelling impatiently, he started directly.
Of course, the final result must be subdued. As a soldier, subduing an ordinary person who has not been trained is naturally a matter of minutes. It is probably because of this that the distribution of supplies has been controlled by the army from the beginning, and it has never considered recruiting ordinary people.
Seeing that the front was stuck, Qin Huai directly tore a pack of single-piece wet wipes to wipe Mu Nan's sweat. Seeing that he couldn't wipe the back, he reached out and wiped the back of his neck and back for him, holding his collar Fan the wind inside: "Hold on a little longer."
Mu Nan was going to tear a bag for Qin Huai to wipe, but was stopped by Qin Huai: "I don't need it." While fanning him, he asked, "Are you dizzy?"
Mu Nan shook his head, but he was so hot that he didn't want to talk anymore, he had long since lost the spirit of going out, so it's no wonder that those people seemed to have been hollowed out one by one. Those who may not be able to eat enough at home will be even more spiritless. Although I have experienced it once, it is still very difficult to do it again.
Qin Huai pursed his lips, his eyes were distressed, but he still didn't say anything, they really didn't need to suffer this crime because of a few bottles of water and a bag of noodles, but if they couldn't handle it at the beginning, what would they do later, so as long as Mu If Nan can still insist, he will not prevent him from going out to acclimatize.
It was the same day to pick up the supplies and the water truck. Just as they walked into the community, they saw the water truck approaching, so Jian Chu took Mu Nan to line up, and asked Yu Zibai, Xu Ming and Qin Huai to go upstairs to put things and then get the buckets. This also saves time.
When Qin Huai and the others came down with the bucket, there was already a commotion downstairs, and the place where the commotion happened was the waterwheel side, Qin Huai's heart tightened, and he quickly ran over there, seeing Mu Nan was very happy Standing next to Jian Chu while queuing up and watching the excitement, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Are you all right?"
Mu Nan shook his head. Seeing that his breath was not stable, he quickly wiped his sweat with a tissue: "It's okay, you ran here in just a few steps? We didn't arrive so fast, and there are still elders ahead."
Qin Huai glanced at the people who were still arguing over there, and it was the Zhang family who unexpectedly had a conflict, so he asked, "What are they arguing about?"
Mu Nan said: "They have a lot of families, five of them, ten liters of water per person, when those water buyers saw it, they went up and asked them if they sold it. It was the boy who asked, and then his grandfather came over immediately, protecting his grandson and pushing him away. The guy who asked if he wanted to sell water ended up getting into a fight, and during the fight he overturned a bucket of water in Zhang’s house, and that’s how it ended.”
Seeing that the troublemaker had nothing to do with them, Qin Huai didn't intend to meddle in other people's business, so he stood in the line, replaced Mu Nan, and asked him to stand away a bit, fetching water is not something that everyone can surely get. The car water, it's over when it's over, so I'm afraid I won't be able to line up, so the line is naturally tighter, and the closer it is, the hotter it is, anyway, Mu Nan is standing next to him with a bucket, and the people behind will know this There are family members queuing up.
It’s not just them. The people who come down to fetch water are all families. One of them is in line. It’s normal for the rest of the family to stand next to them. If you jump in front of the queue, the people behind will generally not care about it.
In the end, the farce over there was suppressed by people in the community. Of course, it is impossible to compensate you for the water that was poured down. You can’t just give you an extra bucket just because you make trouble. Some people will not get water. Although Zhang Jianwen is very dissatisfied, he is not as tough as the community. Now the community exists to maintain the order of the community, but it is no longer serving the people with a service mentality. If you really want to make trouble, you will suffer in the end.
As for those water collectors who caused disputes, the community also beat them down. Letting them in is also a principle of voluntary trading. If they cause trouble in the community again, they can only be asked to leave. You can't even enter the community.
Because there are many people fetching water, there are many people going up and down the elevator, so there is a queue to go upstairs. When Mu Nan and the others were queuing up with buckets and waiting to go upstairs, people from the Zhang family walked in cursing, blaming the community for not doing anything, blaming the community for taking black money from other water collectors, blaming the community for colluding with others, Li took a little bit of power and didn't pay attention to these owners.
Mu Nan didn't look back at them, but couldn't help but rolled his eyes in his heart. They belong to the community neighborhood committee, not the property management. The property management only pays a garbage fee every month, and then the cleaners hired by the community help them remove the garbage, that's all, why should the owner be taken seriously.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Jianwen cursed and cursed, probably saw Jian Chu who had a dispute with him before, recognized that they were residents on the same building, and even pointed at Sang and scolded Huai: "We are not united at this time, why don't we just wait?" Don’t be fooled by others! Some people are really sharp-minded, and they don’t know that distant relatives are not as important as close neighbors. Today’s young people are really indifferent and selfish, and this generation is in their hands!”
Jian Chu knew who he was accusing Sang and scolding Huai, and was about to have a fit of unbearable, but Yu Zibai held his shoulder. You can just scold, and you won't lose a piece of meat. If you really want to get into a fight with this kind of old man, what can they do if they lie down on the ground.
On the other hand, Mu Nan, seeing Jian Chu gnashing his teeth, Yu Zibai seemed to be blocking something, looked at him strangely: "What's wrong?"
Yu Zibai glanced at the old man of the Zhang family who was still cursing behind him, then shrugged his shoulders to express his helplessness.
Mu Nan was bewildered, and realized belatedly that Zhang's family was on the same floor as them, so the distant relatives were not as close as neighbors, so they couldn't help looking at Qin Huai, and asked in a low voice: "What does he mean? Blame us for not helping him just now?"
If this is the case, then this person's brain is too sick, and he is not familiar with him. He hasn't even had a face-to-face meeting since he moved back. They are not hot-blooded young people who embody justice. Besides, when it comes to justice, This cursing old man may not be the party of justice.
When they got on the elevator, the old man of the Zhang family was still grinning non-stop, while the rest of the Zhang family had expressions of forbearance, as if they couldn't bear to curse like this, or in other words, when everyone was waiting quietly for the elevator, It's embarrassing for you to swear all by yourself, but I guess Zhang Jianwen usually behaves like this at home, and no one can refute, so his family can only bear it.
Coincidentally, the elevator they were waiting for happened to have all the floors on their floor loaded. In the enclosed space of the elevator, the old man's nose was not his nose, and his eyes were not his eyes. When he got off the elevator, He deliberately walked a few steps faster and bumped into Jian Chu who was walking in front, almost spilling the water in his hand. Water is so important now, three days of eating and drinking is all it takes. After all, the faucet can't release water at all, and a few drops are no different from stopping the water.
I had endured all the way, but now Jian Chu couldn't bear it anymore, put the water aside first, and then said: "Damn old man, do you owe it!?"
Zhang Jianwen suddenly became angry. It was the first time in his life that he was called to death as an old man, so he turned around angrily, and even wanted to grab Jian Chu's clothes: "You brat, do you have a tutor!"
Jian Chu grabbed his hand, regardless of whether he was an old man in his 60s or 70s, he was so energetic, he was probably in better health than young people like them, so he just pushed him violently, and raised his foot towards him. He kicked the middle-aged woman who was supposed to be his daughter-in-law at the side, and kicked the bucket in her hand over.
At this moment, several members of the Zhang family became angry, and Zhang Jianwen rushed over to beat someone. Who is Jian Chu? He doesn't seem to have any lethality. He is almost as thin as Mu Nan next door, but he grew up in a better environment. Not pure, remarried mother, drunk and gambling father, if he didn't have the ability to protect himself, he would have been beaten to death by his drunken father who likes to fight.
So Jian Chu went directly to those Zhang family members by herself. Grandma Zhang couldn't bear this kind of scene, she kept trying to persuade the two men of the Zhang family, but she couldn't hold back the anger of the two men of the Zhang family. The little grandson of the family also wanted to come forward to help, but his mother held him tightly: "Little ancestor, don't make trouble!"
Zhang Zicong is also a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, seeing his grandfather and father being beaten, how could he stand by and watch, so he pushed his mother away and rushed forward, but he was the one who was so big in a honey jar The child, how could it be Jian Chu's opponent, he was slapped as soon as he approached.
This Jian Chu started, of course Yu Zibo couldn't be watching, but he tried to separate the entangled people, but was pushed several times by Zhang Jianwen's son Zhang Yi.
These people started fighting as soon as they got off the elevator, and Xu Ming couldn't get in, so he could only shout from the side: "Don't fight! If you get injured, you can't even get in the hospital now, please calm down!" Unfortunately, the voice he shouted It's all futile.
Qin Huai, on the other hand, opened the iron gate of his house very calmly, and pushed Mu Nan who was stunned by the situation in front of him. Mu Nan put away the bucket he brought up, and saw the bucket Jian Chu put beside him, several times He was almost knocked over, so he hurried over to pick up the bucket and hid behind the iron gate of his house. Qin Huai gave him a funny look, then stood in front of the iron gate, and didn't say he wanted to help, but he didn't go in either.
In the end, Jian Chu kicked Zhang Zicong to the ground. He couldn't hit the old guy hard, and he was at a disadvantage if he played well, but he was not polite to young people.
Zhang Zicong is the treasure of the Zhang family, and a group of people rushed to help him.
Jian Chu touched the corner of his mouth that was sore from the beating, looked at the members of the Zhang family and said viciously: "I don't cause trouble because I'm afraid of you, because I don't want to be troublesome. I'm afraid this kid wasn't even born when I was hanging around outside. I warn you, old man, if you don’t keep your mouth clean, if you mess with me, I have plenty of ways to deal with you, don’t say you’re not afraid, you’re not afraid, ask your grandson if he’s afraid, and kill this little chick A slap is enough! If you don’t believe me, try it!”
Zhang Jianwen suffered several blows on his body, and now it hurts everywhere. He is usually angry because others are afraid of him. Now that he meets someone who is not afraid of him, he is so angry that he almost has a heart attack. He pointed at you for a long time and said Can't say a complete word.
Jian Chu sneered: "Damn you, before you swear at Sang and Huai next time, think about whether your grandson can eat my two punches before you speak, oh yes, you want to call the police, right? Report, now There is still food in there, wait for me to come out..."
Jian Chu didn't say the following words, but his eyes turned around Zhang Zicong's body. To deal with this kind of old thing, beating him is useless. Only by pinching his weakness will he know that he is afraid!
