She had known that the day would come when the extreme cold would come, and she had already installed a fireplace in her house, and it was useless to look at it now.

But Cheng Qianhuai must need it, after all, the low temperature of minus 70 degrees Celsius still needs to have a fireplace to raise the temperature at home more.

In fact, ordinary charcoal basins are not impossible, but the heat generated by the fireplace is not as high as the fireplace, and there is a risk of poisoning.

This fireplace has a special ventilation duct, and harmful gases can be discharged directly out of the house along the pipe, which is efficient and safe.

Song Jinhe touched his chin, but this fireplace is indeed very heavy, and it will not be less than 300 catties, but it is still a little difficult for her and Cheng Qianhuai to move this thing back.

Just when she was hesitating, Cheng Qianhuai had already quietly come behind her: "Take this stove home, so that if the temperature drops a little more, you won't be frozen." ”

Song Jinhe shook his head: "I have one at home, and I have already asked someone to install it, and this one can just be moved back for you to use."

It's just that it's really too heavy, and it's still a bit difficult to transport it down the mountain and then upstairs, so you have to think of a way. ”

Cheng Qianhuai was a little surprised, after all, most of the cities are heated by floor heating now, and it is really rare for Song Jinhe to install a fireplace directly at home.

But in this kind of weather, it is really difficult to endure without a fireplace, and she is indeed a very prescient person, and she is quite lucky.

Standing in front of the fireplace and thinking about it, Cheng Qianhuai began to look for materials in the house that could make sleds, and finally dismantled the bed in the family's bedroom to reluctantly make it.

Fortunately, the ground is now covered with snow and ice, otherwise there would be no way to transport the fireplace back.

The two of them worked together to disassemble all the parts on the fireplace, and then wrapped them little by little with strips of cloth to prevent damage from the collision.

When descending the mountain, they could only let the fireplace in front, and the two carefully pulled the rope of the sled to prevent the fireplace from sliding down the slope, and only barely breathed a sigh of relief when they returned to the ice.

"Then I'll just pull it myself, this one is not too heavy, the ice is very smooth, I can do it alone."

Cheng Qianhuai took the hemp rope from her hand, twisted it together and held it in her hand, without letting her interfere at all.

Song Jinhe didn't force it, after all, she was happy to be idle, and it wasn't too much effort to pull such an iron box on the ice.

The two braved the wind and snow to return home, but they never thought that it would get dark faster and faster, and when it was already completely dark, there were still nearly 20 minutes left.

Song Jinhe turned on the flashlight in front of him to lead the way, but the wind and snow were howling, blurring the shadow of the building, and it was a little difficult to distinguish the direction when he saw it, and it became more and more difficult to walk.

"Don't be afraid."

Cheng Qianhuai picked up the headlight prepared in the backpack, adjusted the brightness, and walked side by side with Song Jinhe, finally able to barely see where they were.

"Let's walk slowly, we can always walk back."

He spoke softly to comfort them, and both of them cheered up, wary of the hidden figures in the surrounding buildings.

Nowadays, murder and overselling happen from time to time, and people like the two of them who return with a full load can easily invite trouble.

Seeing that it is dark, it is even more likely to be plotted against in such a low visibility situation, and in the end, you may not even know how you died.

The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the snow on the ground had already covered most of the feet, and a chill passed through the cotton boots.

Song Jinhe sighed lightly, the scenery in front of him was blurred, but he suddenly saw a little strange snow surface only 2 meters away from him.

She hurriedly stopped Cheng Qianhuai, grabbed the Tang knife in her hand and stepped forward and poked it down gently, and the snow surface instantly collapsed, revealing the ice cave that had been broken below.

The water in the cave was blown by the wind and made some waves, and the snowflakes fell into it and then disappeared.

Song Jinhe couldn't imagine what would have happened if he had just fallen in?

I'm afraid that there are already people around who are ambushing in the shadows, waiting for them to fall in and grab supplies, right?

Seeing this, Cheng Qianhuai hurriedly took Song Jinhe to take two steps back, and in order to avoid the weight of the fireplace from crushing the fragile ice surface around them, they had to change directions and continue to hurry.

They didn't carry tents and sleeping bags when they came out today, so they couldn't spend the night outside at all, but they never thought that people's hearts would become so cruel in a short period of time.

"How did you just see that the ice was chiseled there?"

Cheng Qianhuai is still a little afraid, if he falls into it in this weather, even if he can be rescued, he may not be able to live in a few days.

After all, not everyone has enough medicine and a warm home, and it is good to fall in and come out to be blown by the cold wind like this, and not to become an ice sculpture.

Song Jinhe's heart was also pounding, and she escaped by her luck.

"When it was windy, I wanted to have fun, but when I looked forward, I suddenly saw a place shaking on the surface of the snow, and I thought I was also dazzled, so I walked over and knocked it with a knife, but I didn't think that someone had chiseled it underneath."

In order to confuse others with the layer of snow, the trap maker specially spread a sheet on the ice cave and then sprinkled the snow on it.

In addition, the snow was already falling heavily today, and soon all traces disappeared, leaving no trace at all.

But they didn't expect that the wind was too strong to cause the snow on the upper layer to be blown away, and even the sheets below were lifted up, which happened to be discovered by Song Jinhe.

"Let's hurry up, it's too dark to find those hiding in the shadows, and we're not sure if they have left behind, or go home first."

The warm baby on her body has lost any temperature all day, and she is shivering from the cold cold at the moment, and even her teeth are colliding up and down.

Cheng Qianhuai hurriedly sped up, Song Jinhe used a Tang knife to explore the way in front, and the two quickly returned home one after the other, and they were barely relieved until they were downstairs.

This at least proves that they are safe for the time being.

Although the temperature inside the building is very low, at least it is different from the outside, there is no erosion of wind and snow, and the two of them don't feel too cold at the moment.

They couldn't help but feel a little worried when they looked at the big guy on the improvised sleigh.

Now that the elevator is out of service, you have to take this guy up one step at a time, but the weight of this thing has to be barely lifted by two grown men for a while, let alone to move to the 18th floor.

The two of them were irritable, but they never thought that there was a sound of rustling in the corridor, and it was actually two men who came down together, one looked to be in his forties, and the other was only in his twenties.

They were dressed in thick military coats, and one of them had a flashlight in his hand, and he was startled when he saw the two men standing in the building.

Song Jinhe frowned and looked at them, why didn't she remember seeing these two people? It's like a fresh face.

The four of them were silent face to face, and in the end, it was the middle-aged man who took the lead in breaking the deadlock.
