Chapter 371 Return to the Base
The RV is equipped with heating equipment. After the temperature inside the RV rises, Xia Xiaoman changes out of her clothes that are covered with ice and snow, and takes out a pot of brown sugar ginger water from the space.
After drinking a full cup of steaming brown sugar ginger water, Xia Xiaoman felt much warmer and returned to Maodan.
"Did anyone just get out from the back of the van?"
"Awoo~" No, but someone threw out two snowballs.
Seeing frost on Maodan's eyelashes, Xia Xiaoman patted his head and said, "Go to the RV and warm yourself up. Don't freeze."
Maodan let out a howl, twisted his body and huddled into the blanket, showing with his actions that he didn't need to go to the RV.
Seeing that it was still very energetic, Xia Xiaoman didn't bother to pay attention to it. He took out a telescope from the space and looked in the direction of the truck.
After watching for a while, the other party threw a big snowball. She estimated the other party's approximate hiding position based on the arc of the snowball, then took out the sniper rifle, aimed at the middle of the truck and fired a shot.
The bullet passed through the carriage and hit the back of the carriage. Seeing the bullet embedded in the snow, the four people patted their chests with lingering fear and gave up the idea of using snowballs to interfere with their vision.
The temperature outside was as low as minus seventy or eighty degrees Celsius. Including the time spent chasing Maodan, they had been outside for almost two hours.
At this time, their faces were covered with frost, their hands and feet were stiff, and their bodies were shaking uncontrollably. The body temperature of the person who was shot was rapidly decreasing. If they continued to stay where they were, even if they were not killed by the sniper rifle, they would be frozen to death.
At this moment, they regretted it very much. If they had known that the wolf's master was so difficult to deal with, they would have brought a few more brothers with them. This time, they were afraid that they would have to die in this wilderness.
Sitting and waiting to die was not their style, so the four of them decided to tie the harder items in their supplies to the most vulnerable parts of their bodies, and then rushed to the back of the hillside not far away. As long as they ran to the back of the hillside, they could take a detour back to the floating city.
However, they overlooked one problem: the snow on the hillside had not been cleared. With their frozen hands and feet, it was impossible for them to run to the back of the hillside in one breath.
Seeing someone rushing out, Xia Xiaoman immediately raised his sniper rifle and shot at those people.
After firing four shots, the four men fell to the ground one by one. Xia Xiaoman did not rush to leave. She reloaded the sniper rifle and shot at the four men who fell to the ground, each shot hitting their heads.
Only after seeing a large amount of blood flowing from their heads, staining the surrounding snow, did Xia Xiaoman put away his gun and leave.
After driving to the vicinity of the truck, Xia Xiaoman checked the five people and confirmed that they were all dead. He then threw them next to the truck, took out the snow vine, and planned to burn both the people and the truck.
These people were forced into a dilemma by her, and did not call for help, which means that they did not carry any communication equipment. However, it is not certain whether the truck was equipped with a dashcam.
Anyway, the car has been destroyed like this, there is no point in putting it into the space, so it would be better to burn it and save trouble.
Just as she was about to start the fire, Maodan ran to the back of the truck and pried at the door with his claws.
Xia Xiaoman realized later that there were chickens and ducks in the carriage, so he opened the carriage, and sure enough, there were a group of ducks and chickens that were frozen half to death.
These chickens and ducks were in very poor condition and could not be kept alive even if they were taken back. Xia Xiaoman picked up his knife and gave them a set of throat-slitting and bleeding meals.
Maodan looked at the numerous chickens and ducks, and wagged his tail happily.
These chickens and ducks were food prepared by those bad guys for it. It wanted to keep them for the shit shoveler, so it didn't eat any of them.
Those idiots saw that it didn't eat, and thought it only ate cooked food, so they cooked a pot of steel-toothed rabbit meat for it. When they opened the door to take the steel-toothed rabbit meat into the car, it instantly broke free from the safety buckle and rushed out.
It originally wanted to bite the five people to death, wait for the shit shoveler to find it, and then drive the truck back. Who knew that the five people were so strong that they were walked around by it for more than ten rounds without showing any signs of fatigue.
"Maodan, let's go!"
Hearing Xia Xiaoman's voice, Maodan came to his senses, jumped off the car lightly, and stood beside Xia Xiaoman.
Xia Xiaoman took out a windproof lighter, lit a snow vine, and threw it towards the truck. The snow vines around the truck were instantly ignited, and soon the truck was covered in fire.
After so much trouble, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. Xia Xiaoman thought about it and decided to spend the night in the wild and return to the floating city after a good rest.
She found a secluded place, took out the RV and got in. The weather was too cold, so Xia Xiaoman took out a chicken from the space, cleaned it, and made a chicken soup hot pot.
Having not eaten chicken for a long time, Xia Xiaoman accidentally ate too much. He took a digestive tablet and lay down on the bed to sleep only after his stomach was no longer so bloated.
The next morning, Xia Xiaoman drove the off-road vehicle. When she was almost at the base, she found a place to store the off-road vehicle and walked back to the base with Maodan.
Snowmobiles have limited fuel. If she came back driving a snowmobile after being away for so long, it would be somewhat suspicious.
Of course, the most important reason was that the oil used in snowmobiles was extracted from snow vines. She didn't have this oil in her space. If she added ordinary gasoline, she wouldn't be able to explain it to others even if she had ten mouths.
So I just pretended that the snowmobile was out of gas and was abandoned outside by her.
…
This cold wave destroyed many people's homes.
Xia Xiaoman walked into the camp, and there were collapsed houses on both sides. The owner of the house built a snow house next to it to temporarily avoid the wind and snow. On weekdays, he would clear the snow on the house with his bare hands and dig out the supplies buried under the ruins.
Not long after Xia Xiaoman left, he saw Chen Peiqiong building a snow house.
"Sister Pei, why are you building an igloo here?" Xia Xiaoman walked over and asked.
Chen Peiqiong turned around and saw her, and said, "Xiaoman, it's you! I dug up the snow yesterday and took a look. This is my house." She pointed to the white snow next to her.
"This should be my family's farmland. It will be more convenient to build a snow house here and clear the snow without worrying about getting in the way of others."
Yesterday, someone built an igloo next to someone else's house and was driven away by the owner of the house. The igloo became someone else's. That's why she built an igloo on her own land.
Xia Xiaoman was stunned when he heard this, and pointed at the snow pile next to him and said, "This is your home, then my home..."
Chen Peiqiong pointed to a snow pile not far away and said, "That should be your house. The snow pile is so high, I guess the house hasn't collapsed yet."
Xia Xiaoman's mouth twitched. This blizzard was too terrible! It buried her house directly, without even a tile exposed.
