The Ice Age kicks off.
As goose feather snow falls in the southern city of Tianhai, the internet is abuzz with talk, some complaining, some celebrating.
But none of them knew that this heavy snowfall and cooling was not temporary, but would continue and expand.
In the end, it would bring about a disaster that no one could bear.
But at this moment, Zhang Yi was lying on the sofa at home, comfortably enjoying the temperature of more than 30 degrees in the safe house while savouring a cold Budweiser beer, which was very pleasant.
At this time, Zhang Yi's mobile phone suddenly rang.
He took it over to have a look, and it turned out to be people chatting in the mobile phone chat group.
Among them were his previous classmates' group, his fellow students' group, and the owners' group of the neighbourhood.
"Geez, why is it suddenly snowing so heavily. The weather forecast didn't say that either!"
"It froze me awake in the middle of the night, hurry up and turn on the air conditioner."
"Do not say, our home this broken air conditioning heating effect is not powerful ah, half a day, more and more cold."
"I don't know how long this cold weather will last, I haven't bought my winter clothes yet!"
Everyone was talking and expressing their feelings.
However, Zhang Yi could sense that most of the people did not take the sudden cooling down seriously either, instead, they were somewhat surprised.
Zhang Yi knew very well in his heart that this was just temporary.
He yawned and did not intend to continue watching.
Returning to his large, warm bed, Zhang Yi covered himself with a velvet quilt and closed his eyes comfortably.
His bed was very comfortable, a high-grade item that had been moved from inside the Walmart warehouse.
Especially the mattress, it was said to be the same model of a certain actress, worth 3 million.
Outside, goose feather snow was falling and the cold wind was howling, but inside the house, the fireplace was blazing and the temperature was pleasant.
In such a cosy environment, Zhang Yi quickly entered dreamland.
...
Early the next morning, Zhang Yi was woken up by the ringing of his mobile phone.
When he opened his eyes, it turned out to be White Lotus Fang Yuqing calling him.
Having been disturbed from his good dream, Zhang Yi's mood was naturally not very comfortable.
He took the phone and asked in a bad mood, "Hey, why are you calling me so early in the morning?"
Fang Yuqing froze for a moment when she heard Zhang Yi's cold tone.
But soon, she still said, "Zhang Yi, it's so cold outside today! Did you know in advance that there would be a big temperature drop when you stocked up on supplies before?"
Fang Yuqing's voice trembled a little, as if she was desperately trying to bear something.
When Zhang Yi heard this, the corner of his mouth curled up into a mocking arc.
Sure enough, this White Lotus had nothing to do with it.
He lazily said, "I also heard my friend casually mention it, but I didn't expect the cooling to drop so much."
He lifted the quilt and the temperature in the room was very high, making him sweat a little on his body.
Zhang Yi put on his slippers and headed out, and when he came to the floor-to-ceiling window, the familiar scene in front of him made his eyes glaze over.
The heavy snow outside had already flooded the entire city, and he couldn't even see the streets and roadside shrubs now.
Only able to vaguely see the outlines of the city's buildings, many of the ground floors of the houses were mostly submerged.
Moreover, the heavy snow continued, goose feather-like snow flakes kept falling to the earth, with no sign of stopping.
On the other end of the phone, Fang Yuqing was still saying, "No wonder you've hoarded so many things, Zhang Yi, you're really something, you didn't tell me about this kind of thing in advance."
Zhang Yi frowned, never imagining that she would still have the face to come over and complain about herself.
He directly hung up the phone and then threw the phone to the side.
Then, he went to the washroom to take a hot bath comfortably.
Then he took out a piece of top quality a5 wagyu beef from the space, and had steak with spaghetti for breakfast.
While eating breakfast, he turned on the TV to watch.
Now that the cooling had just been ushered in, there hadn't been any power cuts yet, so the TV could still be watched normally.
But even if there was a power cut, Zhang Yi had prepared all sorts of backup power sources, as well as dozens of generators and huge amounts of petrol.
The energy piece would not be a problem for at least three hundred years!
After switching on the TV, Zhang Yi took the lead in tuning to the morning news channel.
Although as a reborn person, he knew how the situation outside was.
But at times like this, taking a look at the situation outside was also a form of pastime.
On this side of the news station, the two anchors were surprisingly wearing thick down jackets.
You have to know that in a place like a TV station, the central air conditioning is not stingy, and it is also a place that gives priority to power supply.
But the fact that the anchors both needed to wear down jackets meant that the temperature had reached a point where the central air conditioning couldn't even fully resist.
The female anchor looked at the camera and tried to say in a smooth tone, "Last night, a strong cold air struck all over the globe, leading to drastic changes in global temperatures. The general cooling reached 70 to 100 degrees Celsius."
"The meteorological department is conducting an investigation regarding the cause of this cold air's arrival."
"In the next few days, I hope everyone pays good attention to keeping warm and not getting frostbite."
"Try not to go out if it's not necessary."
"Officials will solve this problem properly, I hope everyone won't panic."
"Don't spread rumours and don't believe them, and don't engage in material looting. The snowstorm will soon pass."
Hearing the anchorwoman's words, Zhang Yi scoffed.
After the Ice Age, if you want to live, you can only rely on yourself, if you are really stupid and stay at home and do nothing, you will definitely be the first to die.
The upper right corner of the TV already showed that the outdoor temperature in Tianhai City had reached 65° below zero!
To know, yesterday during the daytime, the highest temperature in Tianhai City was still 15°, which means that it cooled down by 80° all of a sudden!
Zhang Yi shrugged his shoulders, this level of cooling was exactly the same as in his previous life.
However, right now, he was wearing his pyjamas, drinking red wine and eating steak with pasta, not feeling the cold outside in the slightest.
After all, it was a safe house that cost 8 million to build, and he had specially emphasised on the function of heat preservation, so the temperature inside the house would barely pass.
At this time, Zhang Yi's mobile phone rang again.
He was interested, curious to see what those neighbours who had previously laughed at him were chatting about.
The first thing he saw was Fang Yuqing's message.
"Zhang Yi, why did you hang up on people all of a sudden!"
"It's snowing heavily outside, I have no way to go out. Didn't you buy a lot of food? Can you lend me some first, I'll return it to you when the snowstorm passes."
Zhang Yi raised an eyebrow, a cold smile floating at the corner of his mouth.
White Lotus was brainy enough to know that with that much snow, food would become very expensive.
It wasn't like she wanted to brave the super low temperature of -60 to -70 degrees to go out, so she wanted to ask Zhang Yi for food.
But Zhang Yi knew that this glacial disaster would last for a very long time and would not pass quickly at all.
Moreover, it was impossible for him to give Fang Yuqing a bite of food in the first place!
In his previous life, he had been bewitched by this White Lotus and had given her a lot of food from his own home.
At the end of the day, she even got Zhang Yi killed and had to dig out his ribs to make soup!
Such a woman, Zhang Yi now only wanted to tease her properly and then watch how she died miserably.
Thinking of this, a teasing smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he sent a message to Fang Yuqing.
"You said it earlier, I've pretty much eaten everything I've hoarded at home. Look, the steak was just fried this morning!"
After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he even took a selfie of himself and the steak and red wine on the table.
He deliberately took a picture of himself in his pajamas as well and sent it to Fang Yuqing.
