As the Heilongjiang saying goes, you can’t beat with sticks. These two days coincided with the coldest season of the year in Mohe City, Heilongjiang Province, the “Shenzhou Arctic”, where the local minimum temperature has fallen below 40 ° C below zero. In an extremely low temperature environment, the reporter appeared to be in a large natural refrigerator.

How do people live in such an environment? Before reaching Mohe, the reporter imagined life in the extreme cold when people wintered, few pedestrians on the road and even the city was “frozen”, but when they entered the extremely cold Mohe, what he saw the reporter was a different scene. , The market is busy and the supply of materials is orderly. It is no different from other cities. Police, messengers and firefighters remain at their posts and carry out their duties. In the icy little town of Mohe, life remains the same and work is as usual.

These are some “silhouettes” recorded by the reporter in Mohe in extreme cold mode.

It may be due to fear of low temperatures. The sun in Mohe has not risen at 7 a.m., but at the Zhonghua Road Fire Station in Mohe City, the fire commanders have already started a new day. Accompanied by the orderly sound of orders, commanders and combatants are undergoing physical training.

“There are winter training methods in winter. Besides training outdoors, you can also train on the stairs and in the gym,” said firefighter Wu Xiangjun.

It was not until almost 8 o’clock that the sun reluctantly left the ground and the mobile phone software showed that the real-time temperature was -40 ° C. The reporter saw Li Jun, an assistant policeman on duty, at the traffic stall on the street in the center of Mohe, with the hat, the mascara and even the frosted lashes.

“The temperature is low in the morning and the water vapor in the air condenses to form an icy fog. Visibility is particularly poor. To ensure safety, guidance is needed,” Li Jun said.

Express delivery and take-out are available in large cities, as is the small town of Mohe. However, food delivery in Mohe requires not only speed but also equipment.

Before the start of work, the takeaway Feng Xiumei wore 4 layers of clothes inside and out, “I have given the phone heat, or the phone freezes easily and runs out of electricity. The food storage box Take-out is specially made and the food can be kept warm inside. But you also need to walk and run fast, and the cold weather makes customers eat hot food. “

It wasn’t until noon that the icy fog over Mohe gradually dispersed. At the market, the stall owner put fresh fish, yellow and orange sticky bean buns, and popsicle boxes directly on the outdoor stalls. Frozen pears and frozen persimmons unique to the Northeast add a lot of life to the snow-colored city. The color, the sound of the sale and the request for payment on the account are infinite.

According to meteorological data, the extremely low temperature in Mohe in winter reached -52.3 ℃. In winter, the outside temperature in Mohe is lower than that of most cold rooms. Put a container of water and place it outside. It will take a few minutes for an ice layer to form. When walking down the street, it seems that his face is cut with a knife. With a sigh of relief, I felt that my nostrils would be filled with small ice crystals.

Some people have visited Mohe as tourists, where they experience splashing water on the ice, horse-drawn sleighs, and feel the novelty and happiness that the low temperature brings. However, for the people who live here, the meaning of low temperature is much more than that. The severe cold has carved this land and created the perseverance of the people here. Against the background of the sun, the icy little town of Mohe is still full of strong life …
