24 Hours to Save the World

Chapter 190: Use local materials to build stone houses

Views:

Zhu Shijiu's caution made Fu Si feel cold inside.

Of course, he would not tell this candidate. Because if this candidate was really just an ordinary candidate, then Zhu Shijiu's doubts about him would be the greatest harm to him.

Fu Si couldn't help but wonder what Zhu Shijiu had experienced to develop such a twisted personality

The candidate brought the hypothermic patients one by one, and this action certainly could not be hidden from the other candidates present. However, most of the candidates were cold and hungry, and just watched the candidate's enthusiastic behavior coldly.

"There are still many candidates who are indifferent."

Fu Sidu sighed while treating the hypothermia patient lying on the ground.

This is human nature.

They can hardly protect their own number plates, so how can they care about how Zhu Shijiu and others help others

Then, Fu Sidu said to Zhu Shijiu: "Currently, rewarming in the rain is only a temporary solution, and it is better to have a dry shelter. Perhaps for them, eliminating them directly is the best option. Maybe the organization will transfer them to a safe place..."

Fu Sidu had only said half of his words when he felt a hand grabbing the corner of his clothes.

He looked down and saw that the first hypothermia patient he had treated had regained consciousness.

“… No.” The hypothermic patient pleaded, “Don’t eliminate me! I have reasons to join the organization.”

Fu Sidu opened his mouth, he had no way to persuade the candidate to give up.

Because he himself had his own reasons for wanting to join the organization. He didn't know what the hypothermic patient's reasons were, but he was definitely ready to sacrifice his life for this reason.

Zhu Shijiu patted Fu Sidu on the shoulder and said, "Stop talking. We should come up with a way to deal with this rain now."

Fu Sidu thought of the scene where he had just spoken to the candidates.

"It would be great if some of the candidates brought tents, but unfortunately that's unlikely."

"Everyone! Does anyone have a tent?" Zhu Shijiu ignored Fu Sidu's speculation and shouted to the examinees, "The hypothermic patients here need a place to shelter from the rain! If anyone has a tent, please provide it. It can save several lives!"

No.

The examinees were all silent in the rain, and the sound of rain was still ringing in their ears.

Zhu Shijiu was not disappointed. He began to think about how to create a dry place.

But the rain never stopped, and there was no shelter in the square, so it was impossible to even start a fire, let alone create a dry place.

Even if he went back in time and was able to use force to protect these people's number plates, he would not be able to save the lives of the hypothermia patients.

"I think... you guys are in a misunderstanding."

At this time, the candidate who had previously provided heating pads and helped carry the hypothermia patient suddenly spoke.

"Misunderstanding?" Zhu Shijiu looked at the candidate with hope.

The candidate said, "Since we can't find a dry shelter, why don't we build one ourselves?"

Fu Sidu was puzzled. While dealing with the symptoms of the more serious hypothermia patients, he asked, "How can we build a shelter ourselves? We have neither tools nor materials. Even if we want to build a simple shelter in the square, it's difficult for a skilled cook to cook without rice."

The examinee shook his head: "Who said we don't have the materials?"

The candidate raised his foot and stepped on the bluestone paved ground of the square.

"Aren't they everywhere in this square?"

Fu Sidu and Zhu Shijiu were both stunned for a moment.

They looked down and saw the tiles on the square?! This is the material!

Human thinking has blind spots.

Looking back now, it sounds like an easy idea to come up with, but in reality, if no one had reminded them, they might never have thought of it in their lifetime.

"Who are you?"

"Jiang Zhou. An ordinary geologist. I checked when I first arrived at the square. The floor tiles of the square are made of bluestone. Bluestone is the most widely used type of sedimentary rock. It has medium strength and its main components are calcium carbonate and clay. It is more than enough to be used as a building material."

Zhu Shijiu said to Jiang Zhou solemnly: "Thank you."

Jiang Zhou shook his head: "You're welcome. This is not such a great idea, and I'm just an ordinary person with a conscience. I can't let these people lose their lives..."

“… The question is, how do we pry the ground open?”

Fu Sidu looked at Zhu Shijiu: "Your fighting ability is so high, can you crush the floor tiles with one foot?"

Zhu Shijiu raised his eyebrows and said, "How is that possible! I just have a slightly better physical fitness than ordinary people and a few more fighting skills. Maybe the examiner can do it, but I can't do it anyway. Human bones are still quite fragile."

That’s true.

Fu Sidu smiled bitterly.

"But it would be much easier if we had a hammer or a shovel."

Then, Fu Sidu saw Zhu Shijiu shouting to the examinees: "Who brought a hammer or a shovel?"

Zhu Shijiu made Jiang Zhou's idea known to everyone without hesitation, telling everyone that as long as there was a way to pry open the bluestone slabs on the ground of the square, there would be materials to build a shelter.

Even if the candidates didn't have the intention to help them, they should at least help themselves, right? Zhu Shijiu told other candidates about this idea, not intending to keep it to himself, just to encourage more capable candidates to take action.

Sure enough, not long after, Zhu Shijiu saw a candidate standing up.

"Me! I brought an army shovel! I wonder if that will be of any use?"

Zhu Shijiu was surprised: "It works! Of course it works!"

The candidates were no longer indifferent. They thought that there was no solution to the rain and they could only endure it. Who would have thought that they could actually build a shelter by prying the tiles on the square? This is a blind spot that sounds simple, but is actually difficult to think of.

And even if someone thought of it, they probably wouldn't know how to pry open the floor tiles.

Most candidates do not have the drive to tell others about their ideas like Zhu Shijiu and the ability to coordinate all aspects.

Soon, the candidate with a military shovel came over. The blade of the military shovel was very thin and could be inserted into the gap in the bluestone slab that had expanded due to the low temperature.

The military shovel quickly pried open the first bluestone slab, revealing the compacted soil beneath it.

Now that the first piece has been pried open, the second and third pieces are naturally no problem.

There were tens of thousands of bluestone slabs in the entire square, so there was no shortage of materials. Soon a large pile of bluestone slabs was piled up next to everyone.

Now that we have the materials, how do we build a shelter

Fu Sidu stepped forward. He had a doctorate in architecture. He thought about how to build a simple, solid and waterproof building using only bluestone slabs without any adhesives in less than half a minute, and then he combined the physics knowledge in his head to construct a physical model.

But Fu Sidu also needs manpower to direct the construction of the shelter.

Zhu Shijiu still used the old method: "Is there anyone willing to help? Please help if you can!"

A group of candidates stood up. After assessing the situation, they saw that Zhu Shijiu's team was growing stronger and stronger, and they made a decision in their hearts.

Humans are social animals and are easily influenced by group behavior. The number of candidates who stepped forward to help continued to grow like a snowball.

Fu Sidu was in full control, directing the examinees to move or build shelters, and he could not take care of the patients with hypothermia for the time being.

Zhu Shijiu also said to the candidates: "Does anyone here know how to perform extracorporeal rewarming? There are many hypothermic patients here!"

"Me! I'm a doctor! I just observed that many of these patients are in a coma. This is a symptom of grade three hypothermia or above. The situation is a bit critical. But fortunately, emergency extracorporeal rewarming measures were taken. I can help these patients regain consciousness."

One candidate stepped forward, checked the condition of the hypothermia patient, and calmly gave his judgment.

Zhu Shijiu sincerely stepped forward and shook the doctor's hand: "Doctor, I'm leaving it to you!"

"Okay, okay..."

Most of the candidates in the square joined Zhu Shijiu's team unknowingly, and the candidates' vigilance against each other gradually disappeared.

Zhu Shijiu served as a hub and successfully mobilized the cold, hungry and sleepy candidates.

Before this, they were competitors and strangers, but at this moment, they were a group working together for the same goal.

He didn't know how many traitors there were among these people, but this question was no longer important.

Sometimes people are not simply indifferent, they just can't protect themselves.

Zhu Shijiu's sincerity and kindness were seen by everyone. Some candidates were infected by his sincerity and enthusiasm and took the initiative to step forward and lend a helping hand, which was not only for Zhu Shijiu, but also for themselves.

Regardless of whether their purpose was to improve ratings, at least they stood up and did it.

After the bluestone slabs were lifted, the candidates walked in the mud. The mud could not stop them from moving. The candidates' shoes and trouser legs were stained with mud and water, but no one cared about such a small matter.

A low shelter built of bluestone slabs gradually took shape, looking quite simple.

Fu Sidu did not pursue building a shelter that could shelter a thousand people at once. That would be too inefficient, and the rain would probably stop by the time it was built.

There was no other way. After all, time was short and there were no ready-made ladders that could be moved at any time, so everyone could only build a low, simple shelter, which was the simplest and most efficient way to build from the perspective of time cost. Rather than a shelter, it is better to call it a "stone house".

A stone house can accommodate about two people, and if they squeeze together, it can accommodate three people.

Many candidates had good memory. After seeing the construction method taught by Fu Sidu, they randomly chose a piece of mud and built a stone house.

No candidates scrambled for the bluestone slabs because the square was so large and there were enough slabs.

After confirming that everyone had learned the construction method he taught, Fu Sidu went back to treat the hypothermia patients who had been transferred to the stone house.

The examiner saw all of this, and the heavy rain continued to fall.

But he silently crossed out the word "tentative" after "extremely excellent" in his mind.

Then he added a sentence.

This is a leadership talent and should be ranked first in this test.
