Rong Zhen died unexpectedly and was bound to a small, newly-released system. In their rookie phase, the person and the system couldn't snag any good missions, so they could only go to novel wor...
Chapter 212 The cold wave is coming
"Hurry up, there are supplies downstairs!"
I saw a group of people rushing downstairs under the leadership of a leader.
Rongzhen held his breath in the dark, watching the scene with his peripheral vision, and recognized that the leader looked familiar.
"It's the person who came to our place to exchange things before." Zhu Yan whispered in her ear, and his warm breath fanned Rong Zhen's neck, making her move aside.
Zhu Yan felt the slight struggle of the person in his arms, and suddenly realized that they were too close and the posture of the embrace was too ambiguous. He quickly let go of the person, and his ears quietly turned crimson.
Fortunately, the light was too dim and Rongzhen didn't notice.
Rong Zhen felt that he had easily broken free, so he didn't think much about it. He continued Zhu Yan's words and analyzed, "Is he trying to lure those people to our place?"
The house was perfectly winterized, and they hadn't had time to use it yet, and they didn't want to give it up.
The cold wave might come at any time, and that would be the best place for them to avoid this natural disaster.
Zhu Yan felt that it was very likely, but there was no need to worry. The anti-theft door that he had specially reinstalled was not so easy to break through. While the group of people went downstairs and waited there, the two of them could go up and raid their lair.
The two waited until those people walked away, and then followed the direction they came from to the hotel lobby where there was someone on duty. From what they heard about their conversation, they found that they were in the same group of people.
It turned out that they occupied this place, which happened to be the place Rong Zhen and Zhu Yan were planning to explore.
What to do next?
Before Rong Xing and Zhu Yan could come up with an effective plan, a small thug ran down from upstairs, shouting impatiently, "Boss, Boss, the people over at Boss Gu's place said they found him a stunning beauty, but they haven't had time to get her up here yet. Since they dared to rob our supplies, why don't we rob his woman?"
"A peerless beauty?" A middle-aged strong man called the boss came out, asked about the situation with great interest, and raised his arm to call his brothers to go downstairs to intercept her.
Even so, there are still people defending this place.
However, there were only two people left in the lobby, and it was not clear what was going on inside.
So Rongzhen and Zhu Yan had a brief discussion and then made some noise in different corners to attract the two people outside and knocked them out one by one with electric batons.
Then they dragged the man behind the counter and hid him, avoiding private rooms where people might be, and carefully sneaked into the hotel kitchen.
Zhu Yan was more familiar with this place. With his guidance, they found the correct location. They discovered that the supplies inside were piled up like a small mountain. Many of them were just placed there randomly. The warehouse and cold storage were filled to the brim.
The two were overjoyed to see that they had indeed come to the right place.
Next, Rongzhen was in charge of the food portion, specifically selecting those that could be stored for a long time or could be kept for a long time after being cooked, as well as condiments such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and various alcoholic beverages and cooking oils.
Zhu Yanze was responsible for selecting the tools they could use in the future. If he saw something that didn't have enough space in the courtyard, he would take it without hesitation.
And the most crucial seed, unfortunately, could not be found.
In the end, the two of them finished picking with a little regret, and only took a small part, with most of the rest still left there.
After all, the supplies they have stored are not small, so they can't just leave some hope for others.
Although this place is occupied by a group of people who don't look like good people, storing supplies here will always benefit other people in the building.
Rongzhen didn't believe that they were the only ones who knew that there was a large amount of supplies here. When the situation really came to a desperate situation, people would do anything.
Neither she nor Zhu Yan wanted to make things too extreme, lest everyone go hungry while only the two of them would be well fed and well-fed, ultimately becoming a thorn in everyone's eyes.
That's not superiority, that's seeking death.
After getting the things, the two men retreated quietly and returned to the lobby, where they dragged out the two still unconscious henchmen hiding behind the counter and put them on the sofa.
Then they ran away and left.
After waking up, the two minions tacitly concealed the matter, not wanting to be used as a punching bag by their boss who failed to intercept them.
Therefore, the pursuit that Rong Zhen and Zhu Yan had expected did not occur, and they returned to their residence from upstairs very smoothly.
Just as they had guessed before going upstairs, there was indeed a group of people at their door trying to pry the lock and open the door.
"They already have so many supplies, yet they still want to steal ours!" Zhu Yan was particularly indignant about this. Seeing that they had been struggling for a long time and were still unwilling to give up, he decided to find something for them to do so that they wouldn't be too idle and always thinking about others.
Rongzhen touched her arm. Maybe it was because it was almost midnight, but she felt the air was getting colder.
Some things must be done quickly and without delay so that she can go home and lie in bed.
So she gave Zhu Yan a bad idea: "Since they are unkind, don't blame us for being unjust. I remember there are pens and paper among the supplies you collected. Let's do this..."
The two hid in the distance and whispered to each other while writing words on a stack of cards and papers. Then they disguised themselves and distributed them to everyone they met upstairs. They stuffed the cards into the cracks under the doors of the rooms they came across. If they couldn't fit in, they would scatter them at the door.
Except for the floor where the hotel is located, they have basically taken care of all the other floors to ensure that the vast majority of survivors can see the contents on the paper.
It didn't say much, just pointed out where the large amount of supplies in the building were, so that people who didn't know wouldn't go to the wrong place, and those who knew would still be hesitant.
After finishing all this, Rong Zhen and Zhu Yan were already very tired. It was already five or six in the morning, the coldest time of the day.
It was still pitch black outside, with no sign of daylight, and the air was so cold it made one shiver.
Others just think it's a normal phenomenon before dawn and everything will be fine when the sun rises.
Zhu Yan knew it was not the case.
The first wave of cold wave is brewing, and the gradually dropping temperature is a sign of its imminent arrival. They must rush back to the house as soon as possible.
"Let's go!" they said in unison.
After that, he no longer cared about what was happening outside. He quickly walked through the stairs and the crowd with different thoughts, and returned to the door of the room that was blocked by the group of people.
The security door was indeed as powerful as Zhu Yan said. Even after so much time had passed, it was still standing there motionless.
The leader who tried to break it open began to kick the door in frustration, but it still didn't work, and he was so angry that he started cursing on the spot.
The others had spent a long time here without any results, and were becoming impatient and wanting to give up, and wanted to persuade the leader to leave.
There are plenty of fat sheep in the building anyway, and this is not the only place that can provide them with supplies to please the boss, so why waste all the time here?
They were trying to persuade the leader to leave when the leader's head exploded in front of them.
Yellow and white brain flower.
Rongzhen didn't expect Zhu Yan to kill someone with one shot. He thought he would at most injure the other person to serve as a deterrent.
Unexpectedly, his attack was a powerful one, killing the victim with one blow. His accuracy was very good, and he was very calm and decisive during the attack. It was like he had become a different person, completely different from the youthful and vigorous appearance he usually displayed.
When Rongzhen noticed this, she felt that she needed to re-evaluate him.
But she wasn't frightened by the scene of him killing someone.
After all, she had killed quite a few people in her previous life, so she wouldn't be scared by such a small scene.
However, the guys blocking the door were quite frightened.
They were just being violent and wanted to take advantage of their numbers to steal some supplies and report back to their boss to get credit, but they didn't intend to actually kill or burn anything.
As a result, they didn't get anything and the person who led them was shot first.
Everyone was sprayed with brain matter in their faces and was almost scared silly.
"Aren't you leaving yet? If you continue to stay at my door, I can't guarantee that the weapon in my hand won't go off again." Zhu Yan came out at this moment, holding the light of truth and slowly revealing his figure.
Rongzhen followed behind with an electric baton to prevent anyone from attacking from behind.
With the shock of Brain Flower in front of them, the appearance of the two instantly woke up the frightened guys. They apologized incoherently, and then quickly got out of the way at the signal of the two men.
Rongzhen called out to them: "Wait a minute!"
Zhu Yan held the light of truth in his hand, facing them. They dared not disobey Rong Zhen's words. They could only stop with bitter faces and shaking legs, and then asked her tremblingly: "Auntie, is there anything else?"
Rongzhen pointed at the ground they had soiled and the corpse with a blasted head, and asked them to clean it up and take it away.
After the extreme cold comes the extreme heat. Don’t leave your garbage here as it will cause hidden dangers.
Zhu Yan thought about it and stopped him, saying, "No need, just leave it here."
Let it serve as a deterrent first, and wait until the extreme cold is over.
Maybe they will move to another place by then.
When the group heard Zhu Yan's words, they naturally turned around and ran away quickly, determined not to come here again.
It turns out that the rumors that someone on this floor has the real thing were not false. The person who instigated them to come here really hurt everyone. He really deserved to die!
Everyone fled quickly in anger.
Several pairs of eyes hidden behind the door watched the entire process of the battle between the two sides, and immediately closed the door in fear.
When Rongzhen looked in the direction of the gaze that fell on her, she only saw the locked door of the neighbor's house next door, but no one.
It seems that their floor is particularly quiet compared to other floors where demons are making noises. Could it be that they all know that Zhu Yan has the light of truth in his hand?
I guess they saw it when Zhu Yan was exposed before.
Rongzhen didn't care much. As long as the other party didn't provoke them, they could peek at them as much as they wanted.
Zhu Yan walked across the floor, opened the door, and waved at her, "Come in quickly, it's too cold."
Only a short while had passed, and the breath from their mouths had turned into white frost as they spoke.
Apparently, the temperature dropped again.
Rongzhen shivered with cold and ran into the house quickly.
The cold air that was as solid as substance followed her footsteps, covering the floor, walls and everything it touched with a layer of ice inch by inch.
The air conditioner in the house released warm air, successfully blocking the cold air that dropped below zero outside the door.
But farther outside the building, a larger and wider cold wave was approaching rapidly.
Wherever they passed, the sea water froze, the waves turned into icebergs, and even the water vapor in the air instantly turned into hail and fell, leaving only white ice fog spreading rapidly from the skyline under the leadership of the cold wave.
Just at this moment, a faint light appeared on the horizon and the sun was about to rise.
But it was obviously too late.
Fortunately, there are some sharp-eyed people among the survivors. Due to the commotion at night and the influence of the small pieces of paper distributed by Rong Zhen and the others, many people are now awake. When they realized that something was wrong, they immediately took precautionary measures.
Zhu Yan was the first person to know about the situation. After entering the house, he not only turned on the air conditioner immediately, but also took out insulation boards and thermal cotton to seal all the windows.
At the same time, Rongzhen was not idle either.
She first lit the stove, then turned on the water heating and gas heating, and put on cold-proof clothes, fully armed to deal with the coming cold wave.
