Chapter 37 Snowstorm【VIP】

The poisonous fog was odorless but colorless, and Tang Tian had collected it long ago, so there was no poison in the corridor anymore.

She looked back and saw that it was Shen Boyun.

Shen Boyun lowered his eyes to look at the corpses scattered on the ground, and simply asked:

"Do you need help?"

Yes, these corpses must be dealt with eventually.

Tang Tian nodded, and the two of them went to open the window at the end, then lifted the corpses one by one and threw them down one by one. Their movements were very skillful and coordinated.

"Thanks. I'll give you all the weapons and tools the security guards left behind." Tang Tian thanked him and asked, "Didn't you go out looking for supplies today?"

Shen Boyun was still wearing a thick cotton mask, but even so, a little mist would appear around his mouth every time he breathed.

Only those eyes were exposed, and when he was emotional, it could reveal his current mood - just like now, he seemed to be smiling.

But after laughing, he frowned again.

"I just went there, but the lower floors nearby are all buried. There aren't many supplies in the upper floors, and they're occupied by others, so they don't allow people to enter easily. The supplies are getting fewer and fewer."

However, Shen Boyun also had a radio at home, so he heard the official news, which was generally positive.

Especially the official shelter, which made people yearn for it, but he couldn't guarantee that his family could really reach the shelter safely, and he was feeling conflicted.

Tang Tian nodded:

"There shouldn't be just a few more security personnel here. I'm afraid they'll be here again, so please bear with me for a bit of noise. Oh, and there might be a middle-aged man knocking on the door again, the same one from before. He has a grudge against us, so if you run into him, just deal with him."

At this point, Tang Tian narrowed her eyes again, her cunning eyes showing through:

"If you can bring me his head, I can trade it for supplies! Isn't that a good deal?"

Shen Boyun: …

Are you filming a martial arts movie here?

He sighed and asked:

"How did you become enemies with the Security Department again?"

The Shen family had been out a lot, so they knew a lot. While the security department, relying on their weapons and defenses, managed Xinyuan in a formal manner, a dozen people couldn't manage hundreds of people. So they only picked the building with the most survivors, indicating that it also contained a lot of supplies. Building 15 shouldn't be there.

As a result, the security department came to the 17th floor in such a large force this time. They must have made this choice after being annoyed by the Tang family.

Tang Tian snorted coldly:

"I don't have the time to make enemies with them. If they want to attack me, just come at me. I'll kill them as many times as they come!"

And in the battle with the poisonous fog just now, a young security guard standing at the outermost edge actually escaped.

He stumbled into the newly established security room in the face of the wind and snow, and finally his legs gave out and he fell to the ground.

After Zhou Ping gave the order, he went back to warm himself by the fire. However, he waited until the end but no news came. Just when he was wondering why only one person had returned, he felt something was wrong and immediately went forward to support him.

After the young security guard explained the whole story in a disjointed manner, his neck twisted, and he was still poisoned to death. Zhou Ping was so frightened that he immediately threw him aside, fearing that the vomited blood and stains would stain him.

He is now certain that the person at 1701, Building 15 is definitely the one he is looking for, but he didn't expect him to be so powerful that he reduced the team by half!

No matter how angry Zhou Ping was, he did not rush to deal with the Tang family immediately. Instead, he used the intercom to recall the remaining security guards, with a sinister look in his eyes.

Since hard confrontation doesn't work, I have to use some tricks...

On the other side, Tang Haifeng ran home quickly and just entered the heated room. He suddenly bent over and vomited a mouthful of food. Lai Meiyan was so scared that she hurried over to pat his back and ask about it.

“It’s terrible, it’s terrible…”

Tang Haifeng's face turned pale as he recalled the scene just now. He didn't know how Tang Tian did it, but it was clearly an indiscriminate attack, and it almost dragged him down!

Thinking of Wei Mingxia's attitude, he began to back down.

Anyway, there are so many empty high-rise buildings now, and they say they are building official shelters. It doesn't matter where you go to live. I don't want to die so soon!

But Lai Meiyan was unwilling and even persuaded:

"If you go somewhere else, you'll have nothing and can only survive. But your two daughters must have more supplies at home, and you're their father. How can they not let you use them? Wouldn't it be better than living somewhere else? And you haven't even met them yet. How can you just give up?"

Tang Zirui also rubbed his palms, half complaining and half pitifully saying:

"Dad, just go look for Aunt Wei again! I'm freezing and starving! I want to eat spare ribs too!"

Tang Haifeng doted on his only son very much. He usually provided him with the best food, clothing, housing and transportation. When had he ever suffered such hardship?

He held the former's hand distressedly, gritted his teeth and hardened his heart:

"OK,

, but my heart was leaping with joy.

Sister, although they have never met in real life, he knows that they are both big anchors on the online platform,

As long as Tang trusts me, I will definitely have no worries about food and drink!

As Tang Tian collected the snow on the balcony, she felt that the blizzard was smaller than before.

But occasionally, a low rumbling sound would be heard from underground, which was probably the sound of snow breaking through the obstacles and pouring into the building.

The snow covered the eleventh floor. Qian Peng's family, who lived in 1101, did not want to move, so they had to open the door and take turns to keep watch every night to prevent anyone from stealing the supplies they had exchanged all their assets for.

Wei Mingxia was still fiddling with the wooden dummy, making one for each person. Tang Yi held the drowsy Tan Tan in her arms and opened an e-book on first aid.

Tang Tian used the prepared wooden dummy to practice using a knife.

She discovered that after the wood attribute had been infused into the wood, the wood was surprisingly stronger. Previously, the wood would be etched with a single strike and would break apart after a few hits, but now it could withstand a full set of knife techniques!

This wood might be more fire-resistant!

Unfortunately, the highest level of wood attribute is only LV3 now, so she has to look for more advanced wood attribute delicacies.

After practicing twice, Tang Tian stopped to wipe the sweat off her face, and then she heard the commotion at her doorstep again.

I originally thought that the security department was causing trouble again, but when I listened carefully, I felt something was wrong - there seemed to be men and women, as well as elderly people who survived.

Tang Yi comforted Tan Tan, who had woken up and was barking, and turned on the surveillance camera.

There were many people gathered outside the door, almost filling up the corridor, and they kept banging on the door and shouting, looking extremely angry, as if the Tang family had committed a heinous crime.

Tang Tian directly picked up the knife, opened the window and asked:

"What's up?!"

The shouting was interrupted, and the group paused for only a moment. It was obvious that Tang Tian was a girl, and she immediately flew into a rage, her eyes widening as if they were bigger than eggs:

"You're the one who pissed off the security department, right? Now they're demanding protection money from every household. Shouldn't they be targeting you?!"

Everyone was talking at once, and Tang Tian finally understood.

It turned out that Zhou Ping, seeing that his attack failed, put the blame on the Tang family and issued a new policy that day.

Because they are still guarding the gate to prevent intrusion by outsiders, every family living in Hexinyuan has to pay protection fees on time, mainly in the form of food and fuel. Those who cannot pay will be kicked out of the community!

In fact, the Security Department had wanted to do this a long time ago. After all, all the vehicles in the underground garage had been burned, and a large amount of fuel had been lost. Wouldn't it be better to squeeze some of the people's money?

But now Zhou Ping was thinking more than that. Not only did he announce this new regulation, he also had people secretly spread the news among the masses, pointing the finger entirely at the Tang family.

The survivors couldn't defeat the security department, so how could they defeat the whole family? So they all rushed to the culprit in their eyes.

Some continued to insult:

"Your family is such a troublemaker! One bad apple spoils the whole barrel! My family's expenses must be shared by yours!"

Some even showed weakness and cried out:

"Please, just go and beg for mercy from the security department. I really don't have any supplies at home, how can I pay it? I don't want to be kicked out!"

Tang Tian rolled her eyes and quickly understood what Zhou Ping meant.

How is this different from some unethical teachers in school who made the entire class suffer the same punishment in order to punish one student?

Moreover, half of the people in the security department had been dealt with by himself, and the weapons left behind were given to Shen Boyun. Now there are only a few people left.

Instead of standing here confused, these survivors might as well counterattack. Maybe they can succeed!

Just as Tang Tian was considering whether to get rid of all these annoying guys, a breathless man suddenly ran up the stairs, waving his hands and shouting:

"Stop arguing! Director Sun next door is gathering people to go to the security room. They're short of manpower. Let's go together!"

Most of the people who came here were from buildings 14 and 16, and the Director Sun mentioned seemed to be from building 16, so someone from there asked:

"Is this true? Besides, the security department is armed. How can we defeat them?"

"Director Sun said that they only have a few people left in the security department, but we have dozens of people in all those buildings. Are you still worried that we can't break through? Besides, in the security room, there are still a lot of supplies they've exploited us. If we go too late, they'll be gone!"

The people who were worried at first trembled when they heard that there were supplies. They ignored everything else and even left the Tang family behind, and squeezed out of the corridor.

This is such a farce. Tang Tian sighed.

Fortunately, there is someone nearby who can rally people's hearts. But judging from his title, he seems to be an official?

Tang Tian told Tang Yi and Wei Mingxia about this.

Tang Yi has been to Hexinyuan many times and knows some inside information.

In addition to the property management company, the community also has a neighborhood committee. Members of the property management company are not necessarily residents of Hexinyuan. Seeing the increasingly serious natural disasters and becoming a thorn in the eyes of the residents, they have long since fled.

However, some members of the neighborhood committee were elected by the residents of Hexinyuan. Most of them live here and know the surrounding neighbors. In the early stages, they were inevitably subjected to various moral kidnappings.

But there were not many members in the neighborhood committee to begin with, and after many of them died of freezing, starvation, and disease, only Director Sun was left.

Ever since the Security Department began to bully others by relying on force, Director Sun couldn't stand it anymore, so he secretly organized people, stockpiled supplies and tools, and waited for the right opportunity to counterattack - and today might be a good opportunity.

This posture is a bit like an ancient uprising.

Tang Tian thought about it and it seemed like this had happened in her previous life.

But that was a voluntary act. Jiang Yao and Tang Haifeng were both afraid of death, so how could they possibly participate in such an operation? Even if she persuaded them that they might get some supplies, they would not be willing to do so, and instead blamed her for meddling in other people's affairs.

So she went to the balcony and took out the telescope to look again.

The balcony was only a dozen meters above the snow. She could clearly see a group of people holding various tools in their hands, heading towards another building.

If she remembered correctly, it was originally a building shared by the property management office and the neighborhood committee.

Not long after, more people came out, and they were from the security department.

However, the security department, with half of its personnel cut down, looked so weak that even the weapons in their hands looked a bit weaker.

The two sides quarreled for a few words at first, and finally the residents roared together, so loud that the earth and sky seemed to shake, and soon a snow fight broke out.

Tang Tian stopped watching. There was nothing much to say about this battle. No matter how powerful the security department was, how could they defeat a team of a hundred people?

Moreover, this situation is not only seen in Hexinyuan, it must be everywhere now.

Without the security department, there might be another group that starts to develop and expand. What will happen in the future is unknown. Tang Tian just needs to deal with it as it comes.
