Zhou Jianghai nodded and said comfortingly, "It's okay. Dad works in the maintenance department and has seen a lot of people in the past two years. Everyone living in the base has had frostbite to some extent, but most of them don't have any problems with their lives."
The Zhou family's supplies and protection are already among the best in the base. With space in hand, no matter what natural disaster occurs, they can basically handle it with ease.
But most survivors are not so lucky. No matter how well prepared they are, they can only sit and wait for death in the face of the powerful destructive force of nature.
"How are you guys? Have you got frostbite?" Grandma Pang rarely went out since the extreme cold, and she was not very clear about these things. When she heard this, she asked Qi Mingyu and others worriedly.
Qi Mingyu shook his head: "Grandma, Wanwan and I are fine."
Zhong Tiyun also said: "Grandma Pang, don't worry, I have been living in the office of the greenhouse. I have food and drink. Apart from worrying about you, I have not suffered any hardship."
Grandma Pang nodded with relief, and reminded Zhou Jianghai to speak up if he felt uncomfortable.
Zhou Jianghai responded with a smile.
Zhou Shuwan looked at the happy family and felt thoughtful.
There was something that had been weighing on her mind for a long time, and it was time to bring it up.
After dinner, Zhou Shuwan carefully examined and treated his father. Fortunately, it was only second-degree frostbite. It would be a little painful after rewarming, but there was no major impact overall.
Zhou Jianghai waved his hand. Returning to his long-missed home and seeing his family, he didn't care too much about anything else.
Zhou Shuwan prescribed some blood-activating, blood-stasis-removing, swelling-reducing, and pain-relieving medicine for his father, and told him to take it regularly. Zhou Jianghai readily agreed.
After this snowstorm, the base was severely affected, many buildings collapsed, and countless people were killed and injured.
Zhou Shuwan took this opportunity to ask for leave for both his mom and dad so that they could recuperate at home.
Qi Mingyu's importance in the security team is self-evident, especially when it comes to rescuing victims and transporting supplies after a major disaster, all of which depend on the coordination and command of the security team, and Qi Mingyu cannot take leave.
He went back to work very quickly. Zhou Shuwan's back had not yet recovered, and the big bump would take at least two months to subside, so he also took a leave of absence.
But when Qi Mingyu came back from get off work the next day, they went to their neighbor Tao Zheng's house behind the house together.
When the snowstorm occurred, Tao Zheng and Xiao Liu were on duty outside, and Sang Zi was alone at home. He didn't care about anything else and was worried about Tao Zheng and Xiao Liu, and cleared the snow by himself.
When Zhong Tiyun came back yesterday, she told Zhou Shuwan and the others that Tao Zheng had been recuperating in the greenhouse for a few days.
When the snowstorm ended, the survivors who had been trapped for several days hurried home, and the patrol team also sent Tao Zheng back home.
I was too busy to take care of it yesterday, so today Qi Mingyu specially accompanied Zhou Shuwan on this trip to express his gratitude.
Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu walked slowly along the main road of the villa area. The ground had risen another half meter. Although it had only been a few days, it had turned into a frozen layer and was very slippery to walk on.
Fortunately, people now have basic survival skills, and using ice skates when going out is a basic operation.
Zhou Shuwan looked along the way and saw that most of the buildings on the roadside were covered with ice and snow, like huge silver-white statues, shining in the sun.
In the distance, some collapsed house debris had not yet been cleared, and it looked particularly abrupt in the white snow.
Qi Mingyu frowned slightly, staring at the front with deep eyes. As he walked, he subconsciously protected Zhou Shuwan on the inside away from the roadside, for fear that she would accidentally slip.
Zhou Shuwan adjusted the air-conditioning suit on his body. This was a new one he had changed into.
Her air-conditioning suit was more worn out than Zhou Jianghai's. After all, she had been crawling on the ground for seven or eight hours, and the outer layer was completely worn out. It was hanging in tatters, like the clothes worn by a beggar.
