Chapter 21 Going Out



After about a month, Chen Ruoruo's control over her supernatural powers had greatly improved. Not only could she control the Emei Mountain cousin she released from the space at will, she could also easily play with the door weighing more than a thousand kilograms on her fingers without any effort.

However, although Chen Ruoruo's current house is large, it still imposes great restrictions on her, preventing her from fully exercising her supernatural powers. Although she can go to the roof, this will inevitably attract attention, so she still has to go out. This way, even if she is discovered, she can immediately change places and avoid being killed directly in her nest.

Moreover, she had to take advantage of this opportunity to collect more ice cubes. Although the swimming pool on the rooftop also allowed her to collect a lot of ice cubes, and after it stopped snowing, she directly brought water from the space into the swimming pool, and used the low temperature outside to freeze it into ice cubes, and then put it into the space.

However, she still had to think of other ways to collect more ice. At the same time, if possible, Chen Ruoruo also wanted to collect some more supplies. Anyway, she would never think it was too much.

A few days later, Chen Ruoruo, after consciously investigating the situation in the surrounding communities a few days ago, determined the time to go out. She took out warm and cold-proof clothes from the space and put them on herself. After sticking hot packs on her abdomen, back, and other places, she put on a thick down jacket.

Because of the fireplace in the house, she felt a little hot after all the busy work. She went to the roof to collect the ice into the space and lead the water in the space into the swimming pool. Then she returned to the room and used her consciousness to carefully check the movements around her before she put on her snow boots and prepared to go out.

At this time, around ten o'clock in the evening, the community was quiet. The temperature at night was extremely low. Because there were not enough cold-proof items, people mostly chose to collect supplies during the day and stay at home as much as possible at night.

Some people had gone out at night before, but it seemed they never came back, so gradually people didn't dare to take the risk anymore. However, this was not a problem for Chen Ruoruo, who was well prepared, and it just happened to allow her to avoid running into others.

Chen Ruoruo went out to the 17th floor and put the thousand-kilogram door that she had placed at the stairwell into the space. After she went out, she took it out from the space and blocked the stairwell again. Looking at the various marks on the door, Chen Ruoruo didn't take it to heart.

When the temperature just dropped, there were people who came upstairs to look for her. Although she did not join the community owner group, because of Chen Ruoruo's special ability, she was very aware of the movements around her. At first, those people thought there was someone on the 17th floor, and they did think of ways to move the door open and break in.

But we are all ordinary people, and it is not easy to move a thousand-kilogram door easily. What's more, the door is stuck at the entrance of the stairs, so it is very difficult to move it. We went to the door many times to look for it but to no avail.

Moreover, people found that even after the water, electricity and gas were cut off, no one on the 17th floor came down to look for supplies. People then confirmed that perhaps the current owner had not yet moved in, and no one went upstairs again.

Chen Ruoruo walked down the stairs carefully. In order to keep out the cold, many people on the floor had pulled up a lot of film to cover the ventilated places to prevent the cold wind from blowing into the room. From time to time, the sound of the damaged tape crackling in the wind could be heard.

Although she had used her special powers to check the situation of the building and the community in advance and knew that it was safe at this time, she still subconsciously lightened her steps and kept a tense expression as she paid close attention to the movements around her.

When she went down to the fifth or sixth floor, she found the corridor in a mess, there was a strange smell on the stairs, and even several large dark marks. Chen Ruoruo knew at a glance that they were bloodstains. Going downstairs, it was even more chaotic, with pots and pans abandoned at will, a patch of black ash left on the ground by burning fires for heating, and filth discharged by people.

There was even a dead body in the corner of the first floor, lying quietly against the fire door. Chen Ruoruo walked around the body and out of the fire door. Her foot made a "crunch" sound on the cold snow, and she subconsciously pulled her foot back.

Various screams seemed to ring out in her mind at the same time, and her body shook involuntarily, as if the previous tragedy was right in front of her eyes.

There had been a commotion in the community after the big drop in temperature. Chen Ruoruo heard people screaming and crying for help, but she chose to ignore them all and did not come out to help. In the apocalypse, the most important thing is to protect yourself and stay alive. This was the experience she had gained the previous day, but she still felt guilty.

A gust of cold wind blew, making Chen Ruoruo shiver. She shrank her neck, looked around, and then walked out of the community with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Fortunately, except for the basement being flooded, there was no major impact.

I don’t know if it’s because the community is located at a relatively high location, but Chen Ruoruo walked out of the community and headed towards the mountains again. She wanted to go to the lake and collect all the ice in the lake into her space. In addition, she also wanted to collect some green plants and see if there were any animals.

However, she did not hold out much hope. After all, it was so cold, the temperature was almost close to minus 80 degrees Celsius, and the small animals probably couldn't survive it.

After getting farther away from the residential complex, Chen Ruoruo took out an off-road vehicle from the space, installed anti-skid chains on it, and drove into the mountains. She followed her mark to the lake and collected all the ice in the lake into the space.

She stayed by the lake for a long time and found that there was still water flowing into the lake. She was very satisfied. Although the process might be very long, she had enough patience to come back and get it when the time came. However, she could not pin all her hopes on this lake.

After thinking about this, Chen Ruoruo got up and drove to the mountains. She wanted to collect some more trees to put into the space. When she entered the mountains just now, she saw that many trees had been cut down. She thought that people cut them down to keep warm. Even if there were any bigger changes in the mountains now, it would not attract too many people's attention. Now is the best time for her to collect trees.

After reaching the depths of the mountain, Chen Ruoruo released Erlangzi and several of the Emei Mountain cousins ​​out of the space. When they first came out, they shivered several times due to the sudden drop in temperature and kept shaking on the spot.

Seeing this, Chen Ruoruo felt a little sorry for them. She pulled out some children's cotton clothes from her space and put them on them. Only then did they feel better. After that, she stopped paying attention to them and began to collect trees from the mountain, just using her consciousness to pay attention to the movements of the few people.

"Ouch..." Erlangzi suddenly roared, and the whole forest echoed

"Erlangzi..." Chen Ruoruo heard Erlangzi's voice from afar and shouted subconsciously. When she followed her consciousness, she found something wrong.

I saw a white tiger lying not far from Erlangzi, with a little white tiger beside it. The mother tiger was baring its teeth and roaring at Erlangzi. Seeing this, Chen Ruoruo couldn't help but feel anxious. She hurried towards Erlangzi, and at the same time used her consciousness to control the white tiger and Erlangzi to prevent the two sides from fighting.
