ppear..."Liàn Yī heard this and her eyebrows rose slightly. She asked directly:What kind of monster could leave you all helplessThe stone grinder thought the task-assigned individual was truly unique,...Four people shuttled back and forth four times before all the things were moved back. Yuan Chongming knocked on Li Anni's door as soon as possible.
"Back already How did it go"
"Still going smoothly, a good harvest today."
Yuan Chongming had a smile on his face, then he carried a bag of things and placed it in Lianyi's living room.
What's this
The ripples saw the frozen bloodstains.
"Pork."
You guys are lucky, where did you get this pork from
Ripple asked in surprise.
“We were lucky, we found a pig farm in the suburbs. It was on higher ground and didn't get flooded. These pigs were kept in rooms with feed and survived because of it. But the extreme cold froze them solid, which made things cheaper for us, though handling them is a bit of a hassle.”
Yuan Chongming explained.
How many did you make
"We got ten."
>Anything else
"If you want us to come back tomorrow and finish the rest."
"Just give me one, I'll still be looking after the kids tomorrow. But seeing your harvest today, I guess some people will come looking for you. You guys better figure out how to handle it."
Ripples smiled and reminded him.
"Those who remain here are still within the bounds of morality, and I wouldn't mind taking them out to forage for food. What they find and bring back will depend on their own abilities."
Yuan Chongming is not a saint, he has children to take care of and he puts his children's needs first when making decisions.
"Alright, just keep that in mind."
"
This is processed pork, you can eat it directly.
"
Yuan Chongming added another sentence.
Thank you.
Jiayao, who was at home, had been waiting anxiously. Seeing his uncle and Lianyi finish their conversation, he rushed over to Lianyi holding Xu Feng and asked:
"Sister, can I bring Feng to my house to play today"
"Sure, but you have to bring it back in the evening. It's for the cat to eat its food."
Ripples smiled and said, Children are naturally fond of small animals, and besides, Cyclone is very intelligent. The two get along very well.
"No problem!"
Meow!
One person and one cat answered at the same time.
As expected, just before sunset, Guo Haiyang on the eleventh floor knocked on Yuan Chongming's door again.
"Excuse me, sorry to bother you!"
Is there anything
"I was chosen as the representative by the survivors. Everyone wants to go out looking for food with you tomorrow. It's too cold and food is being consumed quickly. Adults can manage, but the children can't stand it. You see..."
Guo Haiyang rubbed his hands and said.
"Sure, we'll depart at 8:00 AM tomorrow. The destination is quite far, so make sure you're prepared beforehand. I'll leave when the time comes. What you find depends on your own abilities. One last reminder to those going tomorrow: I am not your bodyguard."
Yuan Chongming said coldly.
"I understand! I understand! On behalf of everyone, thank you!"
Guo Haiyang smiled and thanked
him, then went downstairs to notify the survivors.
People on the 15th floor are armed and skilled, and they aren't naive. The fact that they were able to knock on their doors and wake them up on a day with a sudden drop in temperature is already giving them a way out.
They are also self-aware. If they weren't really starving, they wouldn't dare come to the door asking for help flying away. After all, in this building, besides the two elderly people who didn't make it, everyone else is alive. The other buildings in the neighborhood haven't been so lucky.
The next day, the team grew much larger. Lian Yi watched the crowd leave and continued reading, also teaching Jia Yao's first-grade lessons on the side. Xuan Feng also came to join in the fun, squatting beside Jia Yao and listening very attentively.
When she returned in the evening, Lianyi discovered that the squad had been reduced in number, and most of their faces didn't look good.
When Liàn Yī sent Jiāo back home, she couldn't help but ask:
"Did you run into any trouble today"
"Well, someone else was eyeing that pig farm and wanted to steal our harvest. It was Li Qian who fired a warning shot to scare them off. A few people didn't listen to advice and didn't show up after the gathering time, so they were probably taken by those guys."
"This isn't good news. I reckon those people will be knocking on our door soon."
Ripples said helplessly.
Let's talk about it later. First, let's get some food.
Because there is pork as a base, everyone has been eating well these two days, and their complexion has noticeably improved.
"We don't know how long this weather will last, but as long as we have enough food, we can make it through."
Sun Weifeng said.
"Will you guys go out again tomorrow"
"Go out, but stay with people. Don't leave you alone here."
Yuan Chongming immediately said.
"Okay, I understand."
After saying two words, ripples hugged whirlwind and went back into the house.
"Cyclone, would you like to go for a drive"
You touched the whirlwind's head and asked.
"Meow!"
Feng shook his head, expressing his unwillingness to go out.
Although this tornado has a coat of fur, it's too cold outside and it would freeze the cat's paws.
The whirlwind then licked its own paw and rested it on Ripple's hand.
"Well! Does this count as cat winter"
Ripples patted the other person on the shoulder and said with a chuckle.
"Meow!"
The whirlwind rubbed against the palm of the rippling water, indicating that it was a cat.
The next day, Yuan Chongming and Zhao Jia stayed behind, while Li Qian and Sun Weifeng continued to lead the residents of the community in searching for food.
By noon, several suspicious-looking people had arrived at the Shanshui Huating residential complex, and they were clearly heading straight for their building, Ripples.
Before the ripples could even appear, these five people were subdued by Yuan Chongming and Zhao Jia. The interrogation was left to Zhao Jia; don't be fooled by her being a woman, but her methods were truly effective. In just half an hour, she got everything she wanted to know. Then, with a solemn expression, she came to discuss things with the two of them.
“Mingzi, Lianyi, this group is a bit tricky this time. Before the disaster struck, they were locked up in the police station. In the end, they took down the surviving officers, getting their hands on a stash of guns, ammunition, and controlled weapons. They’ve managed to survive until now by obeying a ruthless outlaw named Gao Shengli.”
Because we had a shootout yesterday, they've set their sights on Shui Shan Hua Ting and want to take over. These people are just scouts, here to gather information.
How many are there
More than 100 people!
This time they really went beyond their capabilities.
"If that's the case, then we need to bring in reinforcements. Five of us won't be enough, and there are kids too!"
Ripple said.
"Who are you looking for The residents here don't have the guts to face these people."
Zhao Jia looks down on these people.
"People who came to rescue before."
Yuan Chongming immediately said.
"Yes! And I guess some of the people who left before should come back."
I will go to find someone tomorrow.
Yuan Chongming said.
"Sure, but after you go don't say anything about black forces. Tell them you found a food storage and came to report it."
He immediately devised a plan.
"Does this work"
"Sure, they will definitely send someone. And you aren't lying either. With over a hundred of them, they've likely enslaved many people and stored plenty of food and supplies to endure everything from torrential rain to freezing temperatures."
Ripple calmly analyzed.
"Ripple is right, before you come back, I'll go and get a feel for the other side's position."
When Zhao Jia questioned them, the group had already revealed the location of their hideout.ly asked, because in the past life, Yunyi had disguised himself very well and didn't appear in this video.""I only let them recover those twenty seconds of video. You need help, you can't do this alon...
