Chapter 39 Chapter 039【VIP】
"Sister Ding Wang, wake up quickly!"
In the vast white world covered with snow everywhere, there was suddenly a noise.
It was an igloo that looked like a sculpture of ice and jade, blending seamlessly into the white world outside. If it weren't for the slightest movement, one wouldn't have noticed it at all.
"Sister Ding Wang, Sister Ding Wang."
The nagging voice continued to ring out, and at the end it even became a crying tone.
"Stop howling, my head hurts."
Sister Ding Wang woke up from a sweet dream and looked at her sister Ding Youdi, who was born with her. She was still in a daze.
"Sister, what's wrong?" Sister Ding Wang looked around in shock. "Where is this? Have I traveled through time?"
Ding Youdi: “…”
"Dad, my brother's head was broken."
Father Ding quickly came out of the kitchen with a knife.
"How come his head was broken when everything was fine?" Father Ding asked nervously.
A family of eight lived in the small ice house, including Dad Ding, Grandpa Ding, Grandma Ding, Mom Wang, Grandpa Wang, Grandma Wang, brother Ding You, and sister Ding Wang.
The eight members of the family, except for Dad Ding and Mom Wang, all have special abilities.
Ding Youdi possesses the ability to control animals, while Ding Wangjie possesses ice-based abilities. Grandpa Ding and Grandma Ding possess a combination of abilities: the ability to create traps with 100% success, and the ability to use traps with 100% success.
Grandpa Wang has fire-related abilities, while Mother Wang has metal-related abilities.
The igloo was built by Sister Ding Wang on the day the cold snap hit, using her ice powers. She successfully kept the temperature around -20 degrees Celsius.
Later, Ding Youdi went out hunting with Grandpa Ding and Grandma Ding. Dad Ding and Mom Wang, who didn't have special powers, stayed at home. Grandpa Wang and Grandma Wang would search for supplies nearby and bring back anything they could use.
With the joint efforts of the whole family, they were able to survive even though the temperature outside the igloo had reached minus 100 degrees Celsius.
Sister Ding Wang always has nightmares from time to time, and after waking up, she shouts that she has traveled through time.
Just like now...
Ding Youdi was very sure that her stupid brother was crazy.
"I told you not to sleep in such cold weather." Ding Youdi stood by the window, looking at the white world outside, and then at the equally white ice wall. Unprecedented frustration instantly surrounded Ding Youdi and his sister.
"It's getting colder, little brother, don't act up. We need to conserve our energy and think carefully about how to get through this cold winter."
"I can't get through."
Sister Ding Wang, who had 'woke up', was extremely depressed. They lived in an ice house, and except for wearing thick clothes, all the food and drinks were cold.
I didn't dare to make a fire, for fear that the warm flames would attract the attention of zombies and mutated animals.
They lived cautiously and with difficulty. One day seemed like a year, and they truly experienced the feeling of living a year.
Now that the "extreme cold weather" has arrived, only half a month has passed, but it feels as if they are the only family left in the entire D city.
Actually, it is not. There are about 50,000 living people in the entire city of D, including about 40,000 people with superpowers.
The Ding family was one of the few families where all members survived. However, with limited supplies and cold weather and caves everywhere, their lives were probably gradually entering the countdown.
This is not pessimism, but...
"Grandpa and grandma, you're back."
Ding Youdi's voice sounded, and he was quite happy. It was obvious that Grandpa Wang and Grandma Wang had found something good when they went out.
Sister Ding Wang immediately ignored Sad Qiuyue and ran to see what good things Grandpa Wang and Grandma Wang had found.
They were a few packets of expired instant noodles, and they were the old-style pickled cabbage flavor.
After a while, Grandpa Wang and Grandma Wang, who had gone out hunting, also came back.
They were lucky today and caught a mutated rabbit.
It weighed nearly two hundred kilograms. The meat would keep the Ding family going for a while longer. And after the soft rabbit skins were nitrated, they could be made into rabbit down blankets, providing them with even more warmth.
Sister Ding Wang happily came to help, and together with brother Ding Youdi, they dealt with the mutated rabbit.
Dad and Mom Ding were cleaning up the bloodstains. Just as they finished, they heard a sudden bang and clang outside the window, each one getting louder and louder.
"What's that sound?"
The Ding family suddenly became nervous and stared outside in fear.
Soon, the wailing of animals and the roar of zombies were heard, accompanied by the clattering sound of catapults, tightly surrounding the entire ice house.
Sister Ding Wang was trembling all over, not only because of fear, but also because of excitement.
"Sister, the army."
Ding Youdi remained unmoved, and even collected the mutated rabbit meat even faster.
"People wearing military uniforms aren't necessarily soldiers," Ding Wangdi whispered. "How long has our D City been occupied? Even before the 'extreme cold weather' arrived, it was hard to see any PLA comrades in D City."
They were all killed. How can you guarantee that the person who appears now is a PLA comrade and not a robber?
, Sister Ding Wang was shocked.
What Ding Youdi said did not fail to happen, but it was only before the time came that such things gradually disappeared and no longer happened.
Are the scammers back again?
For a moment, the Ding family looked at each other, feeling that what Sister Ding Wang said made sense, and became even more afraid to move.
After a while, the noise outside died down, but the Ding family became even more alert. In such a dangerous environment, sometimes the growls of zombies could make people feel extra reassured.
Now there was no sound at all. Apart from the rustling of the falling snow, no other sound could be heard.
This is wrong.
As long as you are vigilant, you will notice it.
With this in mind, no one dared to move. Soon, the sound of a dog barking was heard, very abruptly, echoing in the silent world of ice and snow.
The family was once again frightened by their own imagination.
In fact, not only the Ding family, but even those who are still alive in City D and live near the Ding family are all trembling in fear, and they don’t even dare to squat through the window to check the situation outside.
Especially Sister Ding Wang, her whole body was orange-red, as if she was frozen, and as if she had been roasted by fire.
"Sister." Sister Ding Wang stood up tremblingly and said tremblingly. "I feel like I have really traveled through time this time."
Ding Youdi: “…”
"Shut up and stop talking in your sleep."
"It's not a dream. I just 'saw' a paradise. Many people live there, and their lives are no different from before the apocalypse."
"No, I feel better than Doomsday."
"'Taoyuan Base', yes, that's right, Taoyuan Base. It's located at the intersection of City Z, City X, and City C. If we go there, we'll definitely be able to successfully avoid the 'extreme cold climate'."
Initially, no one believed Sister Ding Wang's words, but she made them sound so logical and plausible. After much deliberation, the Ding family finally accepted her words and sat down to discuss how to get there, if they really wanted to.
"It's a frozen world out there. If we don't find a way, we won't be able to reach the Taoyuan Base even if we leave City D."
"Should we tell others?"
"Will others believe it?"
"Why don't you believe it?"
Sister Ding Wang said in a rather unclear way, "I never tell lies."
Ding Youdi: "Then why do you keep saying that you traveled through time?"
"Isn't that time travel?" Sister Ding Wang fell into thought and randomly concluded: "Yes, I didn't travel through time, I was reborn."
Ding Youdi: “…”
"Okay, let's just assume that you are reborn. Do you know what the situation is outside?" Ding Youdi took a deep breath and asked.
Sister Ding Wang shook her head and continued, "Anyway, when I woke up just now, I felt completely confused, but now I'm much better. I can't put my finger on it, but I think if we moved to the Taoyuan Base, it would be just as good as it is now."
"Sister, I want to eat cooked food." Sister Ding Wang said with a sad face. "I don't want to eat raw meat anymore. I eat snow to fill my stomach."
Ding Youdi was silent, then he made the final decision: "Let's go. I don't believe that if our family goes on this journey, we will end up in a worse situation than we are now!"
