Chapter 95 Cold
Chapter 95 Cold
The blizzard lasted for a day and a night, and when the wind stopped, you could still hear occasional noises coming from outside.
Ruan Mianmian once asked the system how cold the weather could get, and the system gave a budget value: the coldest day could reach minus seventy degrees Celsius.
What does this mean? Even in later generations, the coldest temperatures are minus 20 or 30 degrees Celsius. Minus 70 degrees Celsius is simply unimaginable.
Ruan Mianmian thought that if she were in such extremely cold weather and didn't have a system to rely on, she would probably freeze to death as soon as she transmigrated!
Thinking this, and looking at her surroundings, Ruan Mianmian was once again grateful that Sen had taken her in.
Whenever Sen was mentioned, Ruan Mianmian recalled his unusual behavior in the past few days.
She walked to the earthen bed and found Sen Zheng listlessly lying on the edge of the bed.
Ruan Mianmian asked with concern, "Sen, are you feeling unwell? You seem listless all day."
Sen raised his head, looked at Ruan Mianmian, and replied weakly, "I'm fine. I'm just a little too lazy to move in this cold winter. You don't need to worry."
Hearing Sen say this, and recalling his enormous beast-like form, Ruan Mianmian immediately understood the reason.
Isn't this just because animals generally want to hibernate in winter?
This is normal and completely understandable.
At this moment, the little beastmen in the cave were all lying on their own earthen beds, looking very lazy and unwilling to move.
Previously, they were unable to move because it was too cold in the cave, but now they are unwilling to move because it is too warm and comfortable.
Yu continued to wander around the cave like an old woman. When she heard Ruan Mianmian and Sen's conversation, she couldn't help but explain, "Some of us orcs hibernate briefly in winter due to our nature. This is normal, so you don't need to worry, Chief."
After hearing Yu's explanation, Ruan Mianmian was even less worried. She smiled and said, "I understand, Yu. If you also have this problem, you can rest for a while. It's very warm in our cave now, and there won't be any problems in this weather. You can relax a little."
Yu was a very responsible orc. Ever since the blizzard started, he had been keeping a close eye on the weather outside.
After the snow stopped, they started digging holes again, just in case they needed to keep an eye on the outside.
To put it bluntly, their tribe is simply too weak. If something were to happen, they could be wiped out in one fell swoop.
Seeing how hard Yu was working, Ruan Mianmian couldn't help but say, "Yu, if anything happens outside, I'll let you know immediately. You can trust me, you don't need to be so tense."
Yu smiled and agreed, then lay down on the earthen bed just like Sen.
Seeing the two of them lying so casually on her bed, Ruan Mianmian was at a loss for words.
Due to the blizzard, they went from eating three meals a day to eating only one meal of barbecue a day.
Ruan Mianmian felt sorry for the little beastmen, so she tried to think of ways to get them some food.
Feeling a bit greasy after eating barbecue, she remembered the hawthorns she had found earlier. Since she had nothing to do today, she could make some jam.
Without further ado, she found a few familiar little beastmen to help her. When they saw that Ruan Mianmian was about to start tinkering with something she didn't know, the little beastmen all got excited.
They were busy washing hawthorns, washing pots, pouring water, and so on.
Before long, Ruan Mianmian started making hawthorn jam.
As the hawthorns melted, a fruity aroma they had never smelled before wafted from the stone pot.
The little beastmen crowded around the stone pot, their eyes fixed on the contents, eager to taste the jam they had never seen before.
Seeing everyone's expectant looks, Ruan Mianmian smiled and said, "Don't rush, just wait a little longer."
After a while, the jam was finally ready.
She scooped up a little with a spoon, blew on it to cool it down, and tasted it. The taste was sweet and sour, just right.
Upon seeing this, the little beastmen immediately cheered. Ruan Mianmian put the jam into jars and distributed it to everyone.
Everyone took their jam and happily ate it.
Looking at their satisfied expressions, Ruan Mianmian's heart was filled with happiness as well.
She decided to try making more different kinds of food in the future to bring more joy to the little beastmen.
