"For our own sake, please respond positively."
As a result, only three or two young men responded in the group. Zhang Wei was anxious.
"What we are saying is that in this situation, we have to save ourselves."
"Yes, my second uncle passed away at my house yesterday, and I had to take him to the crematorium."
"Yes, yes, my wife is about to give birth. I can't go out. What should I do then?"
Some agreed, some opposed. Those who agreed generally wanted to leave, while those who opposed relied on others. They were all motivated by their own interests.
"Everyone, listen to me. The snow is still falling. Let's clear a path while it's still soft. It will make it easier to travel. Everyone has problems at home."
Zhang Wei appealed to the group's emotions and reason, and finally, more than 20 people joined the snow-clearing team.
Liu Lingling and the other two were huddled in their beds. When Zhang Wei called out to the group chat to shovel the snow, the three pretended not to notice.
Zheng Haomei said with some concern: "It's not good if we don't go down to shovel the snow."
Liu Lingling comforted her: "It's okay, we don't need so many people. Just shovel the snow, and a few men can do it. You're a fairy, how can you do manual labor?"
Jin Zhe pretended that he had eaten too much yesterday and had an upset stomach, but he didn't eat.
Lin Lang watched the surveillance footage and saw Zhang Wei and Cui Ming bringing more than twenty people downstairs and clearing out from the corridor on the second floor.
In the past, it snowed for more than a week, and they shoveled snow for a week just to clear the road so that the supply trucks could come in.
If the snow had hardened into ice, it would be fine and passable. But the key is that the top few meters of snow are fluffy. If you don't shovel it away, you will fall directly into the snowdrifts and be unable to climb out. You will either die of hypothermia or suffocation, let alone drive your car in.
Lin Lang also went down with a shovel. She was not going there to do good deeds, but to try out how many times she could swing it.
Before going down, Lin Lang tried to cover up. She wore a particularly fluffy down jacket, which made her look overdressed. She also put on gloves, a hat, a scarf for ear protection, and a pair of snow-resistant snow boots.
All her clothes were men's, black, so no one could tell who she was.
Lin Lang patted his trouser legs. Not bad, very thick. This way he looked like everyone else.
Otherwise, if others are wearing very thick clothes and you are wearing very little, it means you are either sick or something is wrong.
Lin Lang looked around and saw that most of the people coming down were men. Yang Hua came down just like in his previous life, also wearing a black down jacket, but with pink gloves.
Liu Lingling and Jin Zhe didn't come down either. In their previous life, these two were together, and they also found excuses not to come down. In this life, he was hooked up with Zheng Haomei, and he still can't change his bad habits!
Before they had shoveled twice, everyone who came down to shovel the snow turned into White-Haired Girl.
The snow outside was so heavy that it immediately stuck to my eyelashes. The snow melted into water at first, but then it built a building directly on my eyelashes.
The owner of Building 7 who came down to sweep the snow was panting after sweeping less than half a meter.
Lin Lang, on the other hand, was wielding a shovel by herself, shoveling snow left and right, repeating the same motion without stopping. Soon, she had shoveled a path for the others.
There was more than 3 meters of snow, and it had been piled up all night last night. The ground underneath was as hard as ice. It took them more than half an hour to push out less than half a meter of snow.
Lin Lang had only been shoveling for a short time when she had already pushed the ball out more than a meter. Her speed and strength completely stunned the people behind her.
Where did this strong man come from!
What a genius.
However, they couldn't just stand there, so they followed Lin Lang and compacted the snow on both sides.
Lin Lang felt very relaxed, just hot.
I started sweating after just a few swings.
Just now she was trying to resist the minus thirty degrees cold outside.
She had taken the cold-proof pill in the space in advance. Now, her lower abdomen felt like a furnace, continuously providing heat to her limbs and bones.
However, this cold-resistant pill has a drawback: it can only last for 4 hours, or 8 hours.
Lin Lang regretted taking the anti-cold pill.
What's a big deal about minus 30 degrees? The temperature in Northeast China is usually minus 40 degrees.
In other words, he was really afraid of the cold in his previous life.
There are 10 buildings in Linlang Community, symmetrically distributed on both sides. Dozens of people are clearing snow under each building.
After more than four hours, a passable path was finally cleared. Originally, the dirt could only be shoveled to the main entrance, but someone shouted from behind to shovel out the dirt from the supermarket and pharmacy as well.
So more than a hundred people in the community worked hard to shovel out these two as well.
In his previous life, Lin Lang had also come down to shovel snow, but it was impossible to do so. In just one night, some places were frozen thickly, while others were frozen shallowly. If you were not careful, you would fall into the snowdrifts.
By the time they were about to clear a road, it was already dark and the temperature had dropped another ten degrees. Many people couldn't hold on any longer and, hoping that the snow would stop tomorrow, gave up halfway.
The next day, the snow was still so heavy that it buried the snow up to the fifth floor. Only then did we regret not finishing digging the snow yesterday.
This resulted in no one receiving supplies on the first day of the Lunar New Year, leading to the majority of people dying of starvation during the extremely cold months.
Seeing the road had been cleared, some smart people immediately notified the supermarket and drugstore owners to open their doors and buy things. These people carried large and small bags upstairs.
Once one person rushed in, more people followed suit. As a result, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, several supermarkets and pharmacies were hit by robbery-like consumption.
Yesterday's stock had been completely sold out, even from the back warehouse. The wilted vegetable leaves on the ground had been picked up, leaving only the shelves empty.
