Chapter 118: No Way Up, Go Down
Not only him, several people around him stood up at the same time, followed Li Fei and sincerely thanked Qin Xingyue.
If Qin Xingyue had reminded him in time this afternoon, the extent of his injury would definitely not be just what it is now. Apart from anything else, Li Fei, who had his back to the floor-to-ceiling window at the time, would have definitely died if he had been slower.
Qin Xingyue's reminder was like a life-saving grace to Li Fei.
The sudden action of Li Fei and the others made the faces of other people at the scene change slightly. Some people sneered and disagreed, while some people, although they did not stand up, looked at Qin Xingyue with a hint of gratitude.
“You’re welcome.”
Qin Xingyue raised her eyebrows and said a polite word, but her actions showed that she accepted it frankly.
She walked towards them. Although she might have just given them a casual reminder at that time, she saved their lives, so she deserved their gratitude.
At this time, Li Fei's wife Peng Lijun also walked towards Qin Xingyue with a smile. She was not overly intimate, but enthusiastic: "Sister, thank you for saving my family. If you have anything in the future, just tell me. Come on, let's sit here first!"
She led Qin Xingyue to take a seat, to prevent the same thing that happened this morning from happening again, so everyone's seats were mainly concentrated in the corridor, away from the windows.
Qin Xinyue's position is in the center, next to Li Fei's house.
Next to Li Fei, there was a boy about 10 years old, who was quietly looking at her.
The people were the same ones from this morning. Except for the injured ones who were recuperating at home, everyone else was present.
After Qin Xingyue took her seat, Peng Lijun brought her a glass of water. Qin Xingyue took it and was stunned when her hand touched the cup, because it was hot.
She glanced at him but said nothing more. She just whispered, "Thank you!"
There are many talented people in the Mi Building, and it is not easy for someone to be able to drink hot water now.
Li Fei first asked about everyone's situation, then expressed his comfort to everyone before getting back to the point: "Everyone has seen what happened today. The situation is still bad. We can't expect it to return to normal and wait for rescue. We can't say when the snow will stop. There is even a possibility that something even more dangerous is waiting for us!"
"We must find a way to save ourselves, whether it is for future plans or the current crisis of many people running out of food. We must solve it. Otherwise, none of us can survive. The current problem is that we can't leave this community, but if we continue to be trapped in this community, no matter who we are, the food will run out one day. It will be too late to find a way out when there is no way out. We must find a new way out now while we are still at a dead end and there is still a way out!"
"Brother Li, we all understand the truth, but we really can't go out now. Look at the hail outside. The reason why our rooftop windows haven't been smashed is because the original developer had a conscience and didn't cut corners, but we can't stand it."
"Yes, Brother Li."
As soon as Li Fei said this, someone immediately spoke out helplessly. They had already discussed this in the morning, and now they are back to the original point of the problem! "
"Hey, what's wrong with you? If you can't solve the problem, then think of a solution. Didn't we call everyone here today to discuss countermeasures together?"
I saw that some of those people looked a little sad and some looked unhappy.
"Isn't there no way? Unless there is something that can be worn on the body to resist the hail, then everyone can risk going out to look for it, but the problem is that there is nothing, and even if there is, who would dare to be the first to try it?"
Many people were silent.
Li Fei raised his hand to signal everyone to stop: "Okay, don't be so depressed. It's true that we can't go out now, but we don't have to go out at this time. We can wait until the situation gets better before taking action. Now we just need to make a plan and make preparations.
According to my observations over the past two or three months, the weather outside changes every once in a while, so we can wait for the next turn."
Qin Xingyue stared at the other party. Normally, the other party's guesses would follow a certain pattern, but as far as she knew, the hail had never stopped since it started falling.
So she said: "What you said is just your guess. If you keep talking about it, you will waste a lot of time."
Hearing Qin Xingyue's refutation of Li Fei, several people who were very protective of Li Fei wanted to come out and refute her, but were stopped by Li Fei.
Qin Xingyue saw this undercurrent clearly. She chuckled and ignored it, but looked at Li Fei.
Li Fei also looked at Qin Xingyue. He didn't care about Qin Xingyue's tone and nodded: "You are right, so this is just the worst plan. We still have to focus on thinking about other countermeasures. If we can find other ways, it would be great!"
Qin Xingyue pondered, tapping her legs with her fingers, and after thinking for a while, she said, "Maybe the road above doesn't work, we can go down."
Before attending this party, she had already decided to use the power of the people in the building complex to open up a way out.
This blizzard will last for nearly two years. Although she has enough supplies, she cannot stay in this room forever. Now is the blizzard period. In the early stage, a lot of food is stranded in some places and cannot be transported. Those foods can still be eaten in such frozen weather, but when the blizzard is over, when heavy rain and extreme heat come, those foods will rot, which is a pity.
If there is a chance, Qin Xingyue thought about storing the food into the space.
It's not just about food, but also about the special materials needed for her space, which she also needs to collect.
After experiencing the benefits of space, she realized that there is still a lot to be explored in this space.
The more things she threw into the space exchange area, the greater the changes in the space would be. And every time the space changed, it would always give her benefits in some way.
For this, she had to find a way out.
She had already thought of building an underground ice path to other places, but she realized that she couldn't do it alone.
"Go down there?"
Li Fei muttered these words, but he didn't understand their meaning for a moment: "Miss Qin, what do you mean?"
"So..." Qin Xingyue was about to speak when there was a noise in the building, interrupting her words. She frowned and listened.
