After being sprayed with cold water, Su Qing couldn't help but shiver, and his body trembled involuntarily.
She looked at her son Tang Zilong, who was soaked all over, and her heart was filled with worry. In this cold apocalypse, if he fell ill now and there was no medical treatment, the consequences would be disastrous.
"This isn't going to work," Su Qing gritted her teeth, trying to calm herself down. "Why don't we find a room and change clothes first?"
Tang Dalong sighed, looked around, and seemed to have no choice but to nod in agreement.
They pushed open the door of the adjacent villa, which was already covered in thick dust. Without an independent power supply, the entire villa seemed unusually cold. Several frozen bodies lay in the living room, looking as if they had been dead for a long time, a chilling sight.
They carefully walked through the living room and into the yard, but saw that Song Jiao's house was brightly lit, in stark contrast to the darkness here.
Su Qing felt jealous and angry, but more of it was helplessness.
Now they have no water and no food, and the only way to quench their thirst is to find some snow in the yard to melt into water.
Tang Dalong scooped up a handful of snow with trembling hands and carefully put it into his mouth, trying to relieve the thirst in his throat.
At this time, Song Jiao deliberately walked into the sunroom in front of the yard.
She took out the electric hot pot and started eating right in front of them. To give them a better view, she even used glass heating to remove the snow on the left side of the glass room, making the entire sun room brighter and warmer.
On the dining table, the beef freshly cut from the farm was neatly placed on the plate, and the steaming hot pot exuded an enticing aroma.
Song Jiao also specially brought a tablet with her. She looked particularly relaxed and comfortable as she enjoyed the food and watched the movie.
This scene was undoubtedly a provocation in the eyes of Tang Zilong's family of three.
Tang Zilong was furious. He walked straight into the yard and kicked the fence frantically, as if he wanted to vent all his anger.
Song Jiao, however, didn't care. She deliberately sat in the seat in front of them and, while enjoying the food, she deliberately turned on the speaker. Her voice was clearly transmitted to the villa next door: "Take it easy, there's always something in the snow. Don't attract those snow monkeys and snow rabbits."
After she finished speaking, she did not forget to add, "It's delicious!" That smug tone made Tang Zilong's family of three even more furious, but they could do nothing about it.
As the saying goes, killing someone destroys their heart, it seems to be that simple.
She just learned from the system that in addition to the severe cold brought by this frozen world, there are also bloodthirsty animals that have adapted to this extreme climate.
They regard humans as food, and strangely, they don't eat dead people, they are only interested in living people.
After dinner, Song Jiao placed the tableware neatly on the table, then went into the room and fell asleep.
She already had a new plan in mind. She was going to improve the generator tomorrow. After all, using oil as energy consumed too much. She needed to find a more sustainable and environmentally friendly source of energy.
That night, Tang Zilong did not give up.
He widened his eyes and clenched his teeth, as if he wanted to turn all his anger and unwillingness into strength, and directly climbed over the fence and approached the glass house.
However, as soon as he approached, a powerful electric current struck him like lightning, causing him to faint on the spot.
If Su Qing had not discovered that he was missing and went out to look for him overnight, Tang Zilong's body would probably have been stiff by the next morning.
Su Qing and Tang Dalong took great pains to drag him back and threw him directly on the bed. Tang Dalong was furious and slapped Tang Zilong awake with a few slaps.
"Idiot, didn't I tell you not to go over there?" Tang Dalong roared, his voice full of anger and helplessness.
After Tang Zilong was beaten awake, he was confused at first, and then became extremely angry.
His eyes widened, as if he wanted to swallow the whole world in. "Why? I want to eat meat, I want to live somewhere warm!" He roared, his voice full of resentment and desire.
"Eat, eat, eat. All you do every day is eat. Can't you use a little brain?" Tang Dalong was so angry that he almost died. He really didn't know how he could have such a stupid son.
He widened his eyes, as if he wanted to see through Tang Zilong.
Now Su Qing could only take down all the quilts he could get, and the three of them gathered around the bed.
They huddled together, trying to use each other's body heat to keep out the biting cold.
Several people tried many ways to enter Song Jiao's residence, but unfortunately none of them worked.
The tightly closed door seemed like an insurmountable gap, separating them from warmth and food.
Finally, when it was almost dawn, Tang Zilong completely collapsed.
His eyes widened as if he wanted to swallow up the whole world, then he fell to the ground weakly and had a high fever.
His body was burning like fire, but no one could save him. They could only watch him struggle in pain.
Song Jiao was immersed in a dream until noon, when a rapid and firm knock on the door woke her up.
Outside the door, Su Qing was extremely anxious, and she kept banging on the cold door with her hands. Every impact seemed to carry her helplessness and anger.
"Lin Yirou, how could you be so cruel?" Her voice was filled with tears, and every word was as sharp as a needle. "Even if I didn't raise you, I gave birth to you after all! Can't you lend a hand and save your brother? Do you really want to force us to death?"
Song Jiao lay on the bed, listening to the noise outside the door, but her eyes were unusually calm.
She slowly stood up, walked to the door, and gently pushed open the peephole on the door.
Through this small gap, she stared coldly at Su Qing outside the door. "You're right, I'm going to force you to death!"
"Don't think I don't know that once you come in, you'll do everything you can to take over my house and kick me out!"
When Su Qing heard this, her face suddenly changed and she widened her eyes. "You...how could you do this?" Her voice trembled with anger.
"Oh, you said you resent my dad so much! Now don't come here to seek help! What's the point of doing this?" Song Jiao's tone was full of sarcasm and disdain.
"My hot pot is ready, so I won't chat with you here anymore! See you later." There was a hint of teasing in her words, as if she was deliberately provoking Su Qing.
Then, she deliberately picked up the plate in her hand and displayed a piece of steak that looked and smelled delicious in front of the peephole. "Oh, I forgot to put it away! But I'm sure you won't want to eat it."
"After all, this is my dad's stuff, you definitely don't want it!"
