After Li Tie and the four of them returned to the room, they breathed a long sigh of relief, their expressions relaxed a lot, and they happily cleaned up, washed, and grabbed the toilet, and then they rested.

Xu Mei and the two on the fifteenth floor knew that the little girl was tired, so they directly wrapped her warmly and put her on the big bed before going to the bathroom to wash and rest.

In room 02 on the sixteenth floor, as soon as Zhang Su entered the room, he was hugged and kissed by Wang Duo regardless of it, and the two of them were scattered on their clothes, shoes and socks from the door to the bed in front of the bedroom bed, Zhang Su fell on the bed, Wang Duo was above him, and his hands were on both sides of his head and looked at him seriously: "Winter...... Let's not go out, okay? ”

Zhang Su pursed his lips, looked at him for a while, then shifted his gaze to the side, nodded slightly, Wang Duo let out a long sigh of relief, leaned down to hug him, and gnawed at his neck.

The two in 1604 weren't as crazy as their neighbors, both of them were too tired to prepare for any physically exhausting exercise at night. But I still took a hot bath to soothe my almost frozen body.

Luo Xun leaned his head on Yan Fei's shoulder: "Let's not go out for the time being......"

"Well, winter is too dangerous, such a big wind and snow, if we come again in winter, I'm afraid we won't even be able to get out of the gate." Yan Fei was also a little apprehensive, if it weren't for Luo Xun with a compass, if it weren't for the fact that there were fire-based abilities among them, and if it weren't for the variety of uses of their abilities, I'm afraid they wouldn't have been able to come back today......

"Don't go out...... It's my fault, I almost forgot how terrifying it is outside the base in winter......" Luo Xun was also very afraid, he knew that there were heavy snowstorms in the last days, and occasionally there would be snowstorms. But because he usually stays at home in winter to be self-sufficient and lives in a basement, he doesn't have much of a concept of how dangerous and terrifying it is when there is a heavy snowstorm outside, which caused this decision, "In the future, before the winter, we will prepare the crystal nuclei and materials as much as possible, and the winter will be completely cats!" ”

Yan Fei also smiled and comforted him: "This is the first year, we have no experience in how to survive the winter, we can pay attention to it in the future, anyway, a winter, the weather is really bad for about two months." "They can still go out safely in November - of course, there was a heavy snowfall in November, but it wasn't as strict as it is now, so how did they know that the weather would be like this in December?

Luo Xun has plenty of experience in how to stay at home in winter, how to prepare food, and handle crops, but he doesn't have enough experience in accumulating crystal nuclei. However, with this experience, they will naturally be able to prepare in advance before winter arrives.

A heavy snowstorm fell for three days in a row, if the snow fell more than a meter thick last month, after this heavy snowfall, the first floor of the buildings in the base was completely blocked by this heavy snow, and even spread to the second floor where the building in the Luo Xun community was located.

In the past few days, Yan Fei has taken advantage of the heavy snow in the middle of the night every day to "shake" the ice and snow with a metal mesh covering the roof, so the snow near this building is thicker than other places.

Because of the heavy snowfall, almost all activities in the base were suspended, and Li Tie and his family were completely unable to go out for three days, let alone go to work, and what made people feel a little worried was that there seemed to be something wrong with the signal tower near them, and they couldn't make calls or send text messages from the next day...... To put it simply, it is the interruption of the information network in the base.

However, on the day Li Tie and the others came back, their leader instructed that the work would be stopped the next day, so Li Tie and the others naturally spent the three days at home peacefully.

"Let's eat shabu mutton today!" It's snowy outside, and there are newly mutated goats at home, so why are you waiting for if you don't eat brush mutton?

When they came back the first night, they froze the mutton out of the window on the shaded side, and last night they took in a large piece and cut it thin with a knife. Everyone didn't enjoy it yesterday, so it's natural to continue today.

"Good! We're going to pick the vegetables, and you're in charge of cutting the meat. Xu Mei pulled Song Lingling, and the two ladies took Xiao Xinran to pick vegetables together - the wind and snow are too strong these days, even if they want to sell vegetables, they have to be able to go out! So, let's eat it at home. If you can't eat it, let Luo Xun lead everyone to make pickles, anyway, everyone loves to eat these things.

A few people picked a piece of fat and thin lamb leg meat to come in and warm it up, and then cut it slowly when they could cut it - now it is too cold porcelain, and they have to be able to cut it if they want to!

Luo Xun gathered all the sesame paste at home - this is their harvest this autumn, in addition to the sesame paste, they also made a few bottles of sesame oil, the amount is not much, only enough for everyone to eat a few times shabu mutton, plus leave new seeds to continue sowing. The leek flowers are also pickled by everyone in the autumn, and the amount of this thing is slightly more, which is enough to marinate a large jar, plus the milk curd and other things that Luo Xun saved before the end of the world, and there is still a whole jar left - start to adjust the ingredients!

Everyone worked together to prepare today's lunch, and there were a total of three copper stove hot pots on the table - the kind that burned charcoal, which was also produced by Yan Fei. Most of them usually use induction cookers to cook and eat, and it is rare to eat serious mutton shabu, and it is not bad to use charcoal fire for a little luxury.

This time, in addition to the mutton, the most on the table are vegetables - all kinds of vegetables. From green leafy vegetables to freshly sprouted mung bean sprouts, soybean sprouts, bean sprouts, and potato chips, winter melon chips, pumpkin chips, and sweet potato chips. Luo Xun and the others also got some tripe and other things from the sheep's internal organs and came over to make a large plate.

"Would you like to get some more duck meat?" He Qiankun suddenly built yì road.

"Duck? Does it taste right when you put it inside? "Everyone is looking at each other. One raised his claws and said, "Wow, get some to try, whoever wants to eat it can eat it themselves!" ”

There is no need to put any pot base in the copper stove hot pot, and the white water in the mutton slices will become a fragrant mutton soup once they are boiled and boiled twice. As long as you put some green onions, ginger and garlic in the pot to remove the smell, and then put all kinds of vegetables in the mutton soup to soak them out, it is delicious, and it makes people cry.

The duck meat was taken and put aside to thaw, and Xu Mei suddenly remembered the mushrooms that she had collected before and had not had time to take out to dry - it had been snowing in the past few days, and there was no way to dry things outside.

Wash and cut the mushrooms and divide them into several portions and serve them to everyone, and the aroma of the mutton soup quickly rises to the next level.

"The snow seems to have stopped?" Halfway through eating, Han Li suddenly noticed that there seemed to be some sunlight outside the window. Everyone also looked in the direction of the window, and some people even got up and walked to the window and looked out—"Huh? It's really completely stopped! ”

The wind had stopped blowing since last night, and when I woke up this morning, there was still a light snow in the sky, and now the heavy clouds in the sky have finally begun to disperse and begin to reveal the blue sky that is obscured behind.

A few people looked down from the upper floor for a while, and the snow had almost completely covered the makeshift two-story buildings in the complex, and the snow was covered with a thick layer of snow, making it almost impossible to see what was buried.

The entrance to the first floor has now been completely blocked by heavy snow, and even the windows of those who live on the first floor have been blocked by the heavy snow. If it weren't for the fact that there was still air in the corridor, and some families managed to open the big snow buckets in the windows, I'm afraid that the low-rise residents would be about to run out of oxygen, right?

"Come back and continue to eat, the snow outside is so heavy, it is estimated that everyone will not be able to go out in a short time, so we have to wait for the road outside to barely walk before we can go out." Luo Xun also looked out and beckoned everyone to continue eating.

The hot and warm shabu-shabu was tumbling, the aroma swirling throughout the room, and everyone sat back at the table to continue to eat today's delicious lunch.

Even if Li Tie and the others were still worried about their work, they would not go back to work until the phone was restored and their leaders were contacted. As for Luo Xun, Yan Fei, and Zhang Su, the three of them? Now these three who resigned early are very glad that the three of them withdrew early, otherwise if they still have to go to work on this day, it will be like their own lives!

After another day, Luo Xun and the others continued to nest at home, taking care of the crops at home from time to time, handling the ripe crops at home, teasing the dog, teasing the little girl, arguing with Zhang Su, and more often nesting on their own balcony to watch the snow outside. I have to say that in the same winter in the last days, Luo Xun's life is much more comfortable than in his previous life.

After taking a nap in a daze, Luo Xun vaguely heard his doorbell singing. The two of them were a little confused when they woke up, and after a while, they realized that the doorbell was ringing - generally speaking, everyone usually subconsciously comes out to meet at certain times, even if Xu Mei and the others have to take care of the house next door, they also have the key to the house next door, and they rarely come to find someone at this time.

The two put on their clothes and went out, and the person they saw was Wang Duo.

"The neighbors in the building said that they would have a meeting and organize people to participate in the snow removal in the community, so they came to ask us." Wang Duo pointed in the direction of the stairs, and Luo Xun and the two glanced at each other and hurriedly walked there.

The people downstairs did not enter the corridor on the fifteenth floor, and in the stairwell on the fourteenth and fifteenth floors, Yan Fei had made two gates, completely blocking the possibility of being peeped into the things in the corridor—in fact, they now even use the area in the corridor to grow vegetables, and the fewer people who know about this situation, the better.

So now they're all talking to the neighbors who are going upstairs at the first gate and outside the door.

Seeing that Luo Xun and Yan Fei had come out, Li Tie, who was talking to those people, hurriedly stopped, and waited for the two of them to come over before saying, "This is our captain, and these are the neighbors on the 7th, 10th, and 12th floors." ”

People who are willing to take the initiative to contact other neighbors and persuade everyone to participate in snow clearing are basically people who like to do things with their personalities, or who have a little bit of power themselves, and they also want to take advantage of this opportunity to expand their own power.

However, now the sense of precaution between people is relatively strong, the neighbors are not only afraid of each other, guard, they are rarely willing to let them enter the door on the way upstairs, basically they talk in the corridor, after reaching this floor, they don't even climb up to the fifteenth floor...... But well, they knew that the people living on these two floors were not simple, but they had never been close to each other before.

The person on the 7th floor seemed to be the main person in charge of organizing this snow clearing activity, and he smiled and said to Luo Xun, "Captain Luo, right?" We also came up to talk to everyone about this after discussing with the people in the building next door, and we sent a few people from each house and each floor to take turns to clear the road in front of our building - it didn't take too much, just a small section at the entrance of the building, so that everyone could go out. As for how to clear the snow in the community in the future, we have to wait for the discussion with the people in other buildings. ”

The way out must be cleared no matter what, but no one wants to be busy alone, there are so many people living in the building, and one person from a family can clean up the snow in the entire community. But unfortunately, even so, there are still many people who don't want to participate at all - it's freezing outside, and not everyone goes out to sweep the snow, so why should they suffer this sin? It's okay to let yourself go, but they have to prove that the whole community is going to go. And some people even said that there is no one in the base who is responsible for disposing of garbage? Shouldn't this snow be swept by those people as well? Why do people who pay their monthly rent go and clear the snow on their own?

Luo Xun didn't say anything, nodded and said that his family would be out of the house, after all, this affected the problem of himself and others going out, and he didn't let them sweep the snow in the entire community? Isn't that just these places at the entrance of the building?

There were two people on each floor of the entire No. 5 building, Luo Xun and his team had a total of four people, Luo Xun and Yan Fei, plus Li Tie and He Qiankun, who volunteered, and the others said that they would go again when they needed to do so later.

Sixteen floors, a total of 32 people, only the entrance of the building...... Even if one person steps on it, can he step on the snow hard out of a path, okay? It doesn't take much effort at all.

Directly on the south side of Building 7 is the outermost wall of the community, out of which is a road, and on the other side of the road is the farmland that the military has now fenced. The row between the fence and Building 7 near the fence was a large two-story earthen house built by a group of earth-based anomalies in the fall.

When Luo Xun and the four of them went downstairs to clean up the heavy snow at the door together, most of the residents in those earthen houses also came out to deal with the snow in front of their homes.

However, unlike Luo Xun and the others, who struggled to "shovel" a "snow" path from the gate, they actually climbed to the second floor of the small building, climbed out of the upper floor of their house, and dealt with the snowdrifts in front of their gate from top to bottom.

These two-story buildings were very interesting when they were built, the first floor was about fifty or sixty square meters, and it was a square house, and the second floor was only about half of the first floor, and they were only built on one side of the house below, leaving the roof on the other side as if intended for a terrace.

Luo Xun and the others finally managed to make a snow road, and when they met the person on the opposite small second floor who was shoveling snow on the roof, they saw that the person on the roof of a certain house first pointed at Luo Xun and they grinned as if they were laughing at their lower altitude than their own side, and as if they were buried in the snow, and then took a step sideways while laughing - "poof", the person stepped directly into the snow without physical objects, stirred up a large snowflake, and buried it deep in the snow......

The man who shoveled the snow laughed at the man who had fallen into the snow, and made up his mind to avenge the man who had laughed at him.

Maybe it was because the movement of the man falling down was too loud, or maybe the sound of people nearby laughing too loudly, there was a sudden "boom" not far away, and a small two-story building collapsed, and several screams were heard......

These earthen houses didn't have the materials to build them in the first place, and those earth-based powerhouses would secretly build thinner walls or simply hollow walls when they were overpriced. Two days ago, when the wind was strong, some houses were already blown hard and brittle by the cold wind, and in the past two days, they were crushed by the three-meter-high snow, and now the people in the house came out to clean up the snow nearby but forgot to get the snow off the roof first, and the vibration from the vicinity of the house and other factors hit together, so some unsturdy houses were directly crushed.

The sound was really not small, so that everyone was stunned, until the collapsed house came out of the cry for help, everyone came back to their senses, some people began to quickly clear the snow nearby, and some stepped on the heavy snow to help save people.

It should be said that fortunately, the person who built the house didn't even build a roof too strongly, and the family didn't get any heavy objects on the roof of their house, so although it was crushed by snow and roof, it was only broken with some flesh and skin, and at most broken arms and legs, and it didn't really kill anyone.

These people have just been moved into a temporary resettlement in a building, and the houses in other places in the distance have collapsed one after another......

How powerful is the lethality of illegal construction + tofu slag project? A heavy snowfall is enough for them to show their true lethality. For example, the collapse incident that occurred opposite Luo Xun and them was relatively good, at least everyone's lives were saved. But other places are not so lucky, and some people find that when they clear the snow, some houses have collapsed when it was snowing heavily, but the wind and snow were very strong at that time, and there were no other homes near the building, and after the house collapsed, there was new heavy snow to cover the collapsed house...... So, when they were found, all the people in those houses had completely frozen to death.

It took only a day for the residents to clear the barely walkable road at the base, but no one had come to clear the road outside until five days later, when communications in the base were restored. If someone in the community wants to go out, they have to "step" on a new road.

I don't know how many people run out of food - water will not be broken, there is so much snow outside, everyone can just get some clean looking boiling and use, of course, you still have to cook it a few more times, or even distill it before using it to ensure safety, after all, there is a high probability that there is a zombie virus in these snows.

And there are many people who may not even have anything to make a fire in their homes, after all, coal and fuel are not cheap, and there are many people who dare not leave the base before the end of the world and have no income and do not have much saved in their homes.

Only what they have heard about in Hongjing Community and Luo Xun in the past few days, they know that no less than five or six households have been found frozen to death in the snowstorm.

"You're done eating?" Seeing Zhang Su coming out of his nest, Luo Xun, who was handling the crops in the corridor, asked casually.

Zhang Su rolled his eyes: "Your man absorbs the crystal nucleus for food?" ”

"And you're done sucking?" Luo Xun changed his words indifferently, making Zhang Su squint his eyes and hate to slap him, "Let your man go home and teach you how to speak, captain~"

Luo Xun still didn't look back, picked off the vegetables on the planting shelf in front of him, and continued to deal with the next one. Yan Fei asked curiously on the side: "Has that crystal nucleus been upgraded after absorption?" ”

There is also a crystal nucleus in the head of the big sheep that was hit this time, the size is not as big as the duck's head before, but its volume is far beyond the size of the normal crystal nucleus, after determining that this is also a third-level crystal nucleus, Luo Xun simply made the decision and gave it to Zhang Su - anyway, this thing is the only one in the whole team who can use it.

After Zhang Su accepted it, he simply handed over all the crystal nuclei in his hand except for the wind crystal nucleus to Luo Xun as compensation in exchange for this crystal nucleus. Of course, Luo Xun finally gave those crystal nuclei to everyone, and he didn't keep them - after all, the crystal nucleus of the duck before was still used as a decoration in his home.

Zhang Su decided to absorb this crystal nucleus since he got it, but because the energy was too great, he couldn't eat it at once, so he spent the past few days like hatching eggs (Luo Xunyu), nesting at home to absorb the crystal nucleus, and didn't even participate in the snow clearing activities.

"No, but I feel like I'm on the edge of an upgrade." Zhang Su raised his hand and rubbed his half-length hair, which could have been combed up a long time ago, and his expression was slightly anxious, "I guess if you want to upgrade to level four, you still need a fourth-level crystal nucleus, and now it's just stuck on the side...... I guess we have to wait for the next time we have a chance to go out of the base to have a chance to hit the fourth-level crystal nucleus. ”

Luo Xun sighed helplessly on the side: "How can a fourth-level crystal nucleus be so easy to find?" I don't think I'll be counting on it anytime soon. But it's okay for you to do this, as long as you have a fourth-level crystal nucleus in the future, you can directly rush to the level, and those crystal nuclei in your house will be stored first, and if there is no consumption, you will use it after you upgrade. ”

Isn't? Those nuclei are best used after leveling up and when they are powering up, and unless they are going to fight, it would be wasteful to use them when their abilities are close to the edge of upgrading.

"I know, it's just that it's hard to get stuck here." Zhang Su's face was still slightly unhappy, but he still consciously took a basket and walked to a shelf, "Want to collect vegetables?" ”

"Today, the communication has resumed, and several companies have contacted to say that they are in a hurry to buy groceries." Yan Fei explained to Luo Xun, the few teams that had bought vegetables today all sent text messages to Luo Xun frantically, it seems that these teams are probably going crazy with the heavy snow in the past few days. I haven't called the military yet.
