Chapter 189 Acid Rain
"I guess this round of holiday arrangements at the base is to encourage everyone to stay home and reduce the number of people going out."
Bai Tang said, "How did the base know that acid rain would fall at the end of a polar night?"
Gu Yanxu thought for a moment and said, "I guess someone from The Authorities or the military must have been reborn."
However, he was reborn earlier than us; he was probably reborn after Apocalypse.
Moreover, he must have reported it to the base, which is why the base knew the exact time.
This explanation makes sense of the base's various practices.
Bai Tang held Gu Yanxu's hand: "Then can we be more at ease just letting things slide?"
I was even thinking that if the base couldn't handle it, we could lend a hand.
Gu Yanxu said, "The base will definitely take precautions in advance."
When they really can't handle it, then we'll offer to help the base with the items in our space.
They could all understand the person's rebirth and what he said.
They probably won't arrest us as monsters, but we'll see.
Maybe the base doesn't even need our help.
"Mhm." Bai Tang nodded in agreement.
A month before the polar night ended, according to the lunar calendar, it should be the New Year in China.
The base also decorated some red lanterns and the character "福" (fortune) inside.
The people in the base really felt like it was Chinese New Year.
They all unanimously stocked up on a lot of food at home in preparation for the Chinese New Year.
It's been several years since I was in Apocalypse, and although I'm still in the midst of polar night, I've finally settled down.
Their mushroom harvest was also very good, and the base took good care of everyone's living conditions.
Bai Tang's family is also busily preparing for the Chinese New Year.
Although it can't compare to a normal Chinese New Year, we can't let ourselves suffer.
Bai Tang took out a lot of food from her space, as well as couplets and the character "福" (fortune) for the Chinese New Year.
Let Lin Fan and the others put them on the door and in the yard to create a festive atmosphere.
Bai Tang said while tidying up his things inside the house:
"Time flies! In the blink of an eye, it's the New Year again, and we've all grown a year older."
Lin Fan said, "That's right, we're all approaching thirty."
Gu Yanxu looked up and said, "Are you pointing this out to me? I just turned thirty this year."
Grandpa Gu said with a smile, "No matter how old you are, you're not as old as me."
What are you young people doing pretending to be old people?
Yes, time flies. When Bai Tang and Gu Yanxuwere reborn, they were both in their early twenties.
Gu Yanxu is almost thirty now; time really flies.
At this moment, Mother Gu asked from the side, "When are you two thinking about having a baby? I'll take care of it for you."
Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu have been taking precautions.
So everyone understands that I haven't been able to get pregnant.
With the future uncertain, Bai Tang and Gu Yanqing are unwilling to have children, so that their children will also live this kind of life.
Although their family was much better off than others, things can change unexpectedly.
No one can guarantee that the child will be alright in the future.
Bai Tang smiled and pulled Mu Mu over, saying, "Look, isn't Mu Mu our little kid?"
We've watched her grow up, little by little.
Mu Mu is now about the size of a ten-year-old child.
She can control her appearance and size anytime, anywhere.
Mother Gu smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I won't rush you anymore. You can do whatever you want."
Gu Yanxu said, "Long live Mom's understanding."
Time flew by and it was time to celebrate the New Year.
On the eve of the Lunar New Year, most of the people at the base were at home celebrating the holiday with their families.
Even those without family members are tidying up and preparing for the New Year at home.
Although they don't have entertainment facilities like television.
However, the base's loudspeaker was playing New Year's greetings and songs.
It gave everyone at the base a feeling of celebrating the Chinese New Year.
Bai Tang and his family gathered in the living room to prepare for staying up all night to welcome the New Year.
Although it's the New Year, it should still be a particularly cold season.
However, the seasons on Earth have long since become disordered.
It's only a little chilly now, so the whole family is gathered in the living room.
Bai Tang took out a tablet from his storage space and played past New Year's Eve galas.
The family sat together on several sofas watching past year's gala performances.
Although I've seen them all, they're still very interesting to watch now.
Lin Zhou and the others were overjoyed. Bai Tang even brought out some melon seeds and other fruits that are essential for the New Year and placed them on the table.
Everyone ate, watched, and chatted, making the house quite lively.
Early that morning, Grandpa Gu said:
"I can't take it anymore. You young people keep going. I'm going back to rest."
Father Gu said, "Dad, I'll take you home."
Grandpa Gu waved his hand and said, "You can keep watching. It's just a short walk. I can go back by myself."
After Grandpa Gu finished speaking, he got up and left, while Bai Tang and the others continued to watch the lively party.
Grandpa Gu had only been gone for a minute when he hurriedly came back.
"It looks like it's raining outside, you should go out and check."
As Grandpa Gu spoke rapidly, Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu realized that it must be acid rainingoutside.
The whole family walked into the yard and looked up.
As the lights in the yard came in, they could see that it was indeed raining.
Fortunately, both of their courtyards were covered by the shroud.
Otherwise, if Grandpa Gu had been directly exposed to the rain, who knows what problems might have arisen.
Lin Fan watched as the rain, just like normal rain, fell on the glass canopy.
He couldn't help but wonder, "Is this Acid Rain? It doesn't seem to be reacting."
Bai Tang said, "We built this glass canopy to protect against acid rain."
If it reacts, wouldn't we have built it for nothing?
You can see what's going on outside by going to the main gate.
The glass canopy designed by Bai Tangenvelops the main entrance and even extends outwards.
Lin Fan and Bai Jiyang walked to the front door, opened it, and looked outside.
They saw the ground corroded by the acid rain, which had just fallen.
The ground outside, where there was no shelter, had already become uneven and full of potholes.
This shows just how terrifying acid rain can be.
Bai Tang and his team had already experimented with sulfuric acid in the space when they were building the glass canopy.
They only felt comfortable building the glass canopy after confirming that it could prevent acid rain.
Lin Fan and the other man closed the gate and came back. Lin Fan said:
"My goodness, I saw it! How is Acid Rain so amazing?"
This is different from the acid rain we usually know.
Gu Yanxu said to them, "I guess the acid rain is even more corrosive."
Moreover, if a person gets wet in this acid rain,they might have serious problems.
We're trying to stay home these next few days to avoid getting caught in the acid rain.
Lin Feng and the others also went to check the situation outside and nodded vigorously in agreement.
