Cold and Hot

Snow could burn?

Lin Yue thought that he was hallucinating and caught another snowflake.

A sharp pain came from his palm again!

Lin Yue quickly checked and saw a slight red mark, and it felt a little itchy.

There was no mistake. This snow was abnormal!

He quickly returned to the hut. He finally understood why Xiaobai did not like the snow.

Moreover, the temperature seemed to have decreased greatly. The previous temperature was like midsummer, but now, even though he was wearing long-sleeved sportswear, he felt a little cold.

Wait a minute, were others' situations the same?

He opened the group chat that he had not opened for a while and realized that almost everyone was talking about snow!

"What's going on? Isn't the snowstorm the day after tomorrow?"

"There is only winter here. This snow drizzle has further lowered the temperature. It's so cold."

"Haha, you didn't expect the snow to come so quickly, right? I am going to collect it in a basin. Where are those black-hearted sellers? Lin, no need to look around, I'm talking about you!"

"There's water, we're saved!"

"I've been drinking my urine for two days. I think I might have diabetes."

"It's time for snow."

"This is the first time the equatorial residents have seen snow. Is it supposed to make people itch?"

"It's too f*cking cold. I can't take it! I will burn wood!"

"Indeed. The thermometer I got in the secret realm was showing 12 degrees just some time ago, and now, it changed to 6 degrees in just a while."

"F*ck, how cold will it be later? Who has the central heating blueprint? I'll exchange all the resources I have for it!"

...

After lurking for a while, Lin Yue felt that the room was getting colder and colder. He closed the group chat.

Rubbing his hands, he looked at the embedded steel plate fireplace in his inventory.

Fortunately, he had found this thing. Otherwise, he would really have to consider how to maintain ventilation while the house was sealed.

Sensing that it was getting colder, Lin Yue first placed the four wooden decorative walls and immediately placed the four pieces of sheepskin in the four corners of the room.

Soon, as the torch in the room continued to burn, the entire room became warm.

However, with the airtight effect from the wooden walls and the sheepskin, with just the gap in the stone door, he would definitely suffocate to death after the flames burned for a certain period of time.

[Please designate the location for the embedded steel plate fireplace. Note that a certain amount of stone is needed as support.]

This was not a problem.

A faint light flashed, and Lin Yue realized that his embedded fireplace had completely fused with the wall.

A long pipe passed through the stone roof and completely opened the ventilation.

There was no need to worry about carbon monoxide now.

Lin Yue observed carefully and realized that this fireplace's combustion chamber was completely closed. There was even a label on the side that said that it used secondary combustion. It was smokeless and dustless, leaving no residue after combustion, and even providing more heat.

When he had interviewed for a furnishing company before, the other party had similar things. He had also specially read through related information in order to pass the interview.

He knew that such a high-end fireplace would have an air pressure sensor, blast control, smoke alarm system, and so on. Although the alarm system was completely unusable, the others seemed fine.

Then, what was left was to find firewood.

Lin Yue took out an iron ax and started chopping a unit of wood.

Before long, the system notification sounded.

[You have obtained the firewood blueprint.]

Heh heh heh, even firewood has a blueprint.

However, this saved a lot of effort.

A unit of wood could produce 20 firewood. Lin Yue threw a lot of firewood into the fireplace and used straw as an incendiary. After throwing in a match, it did not take long for the fire to start.

Moreover, the fire was getting stronger and stronger.

Lin Yue closed the door to the fireplace. He felt the temperature in the room increase bit by bit. After feeling no sense of suffocation, he heaved a sigh of relief.

His shelter was enough for him to survive this upcoming snowstorm!

However…

"It's so hot. Why is it so hot?" In order to lower the temperature, Lin Yue opened the stone door.

The snow outside was still falling, and the ground was wet. The temperature dropped, and he felt a little cold again.

Holy smoke, fire and ice, is it?

It was as hot as summer in the hut, and as cold as winter outside.

It seemed to be a stark contrast to the other people's situation.

Lin Yue stood at the door with his arms crossed. Xiaobai was also lying lazily on his shoulder. This little guy was not used to such heat.

My back is so hot…

Lin Yue was very troubled. What should he do? Did he have to wear shorts and a tank top in the shelter?

He looked at everyone in the group who were complaining about the cold with envy.

Seeing that it was starting to get dark, Lin Yue closed the stone door again and enjoyed the warmth inside.

For the sake of Xiaobai, Lin Yue moved the wooden barrel over and made a big hole on top with the iron spear.

The wooden barrel was sealed quite tightly. Lin Yue thought for a moment and poured about two liters of water into it. Then, he placed the little guy in the wooden barrel.

Xiaobai felt the wooden barrel was quite good. It had been almost half a day since it had touched water.

It kept swimming in the shallow water and liked it a lot.

It seemed like the little guy did not need that bowl anymore.

He looked at the fireplace and saw that the firewood was still burning. The amount of firewood he had put in earlier was too much.

He estimated that it would continue to burn till late at night.

He threw a piece of firewood into the wooden barrel. When Xiaobai was tired of swimming, it could lie on it. Lin Yue immediately began his nude life in the shelter.

After all, it was too hot.

He stared at the fire in the fireplace and suddenly thought of something.

Lin Yue lay on the wooden bed and opened the group chat again.

At the same time, he searched for the words 'mutated creature meat' in the chat.

Soon, a large number of messages appeared.

After reading for more than ten minutes, he immediately went to the trading center.

He quickly came to a conclusion.

The meat of mutated creatures could be eaten!

The premise was that it was normal red and white meat, not green and purple.

Lin Yue looked at the 50 kilograms of mutated mutton lying quietly in his inventory and swallowed his saliva.

"Xiaobai, do you want to eat lamb skewers?"

"Puji?" Xiaobai stuck its head out of the wooden barrel in confusion. At the same time, it heard a strange gurgling sound coming from its owner, Lin Yue.
