Chapter 20 Freezing Rain【VIP】
Four or five people surrounded Tang Tian and Tang Yi. Ji Gang stood there slapping his fire axe with a grim smile on his face.
At the command, one of them seemed to have made up his mind, raised the weapon in his hand, and smashed it down on the heads of the two men.
However, Tang Tian could see clearly that, except for Ji Gang, the so-called weapons in their hands were actually props used to walk on the ice and did not pose much threat.
With her enhanced strength, she is able to wield a large demolition axe with one hand with great power.
She blocked and pushed it away, and then with a click, she easily split the staff in the man's hand.
The man was frightened and didn't dare to go forward a second time.
Although Tang Yi didn't have enhanced strength, she was slightly faster. Not only did she successfully avoid the attacks of the others, she also swung her hands to chop off their weapons, even striking their wrists several times.
Unfortunately, wearing thick clothes in extreme cold weather doesn’t have much effect except for the dull pain.
Jiang Yao was stunned by the aggressive look of the two sisters.
One used to be a sweet and gentle girl, the other used to be gentle and charming - when did they become so cruel?!
Oh no! Run!
Jiang Yao's heart was pounding, as if the next axe would chop his head off. He quickly ran away with the supplies he had found.
However, on the slippery ice, he eventually slipped and fell several times, and had to crawl awkwardly until his figure disappeared into the night.
After Tang Tian made several people lose their attack power, she turned around and saw that Jiang Yao had escaped. She couldn't help but spit.
Ji Gang paused holding the fire axe, his face turned red and then white, and then white and then red again, and he shouted in frustration:
"Damn it, you bunch of losers, you can't even beat two women?!"
"Brother Gang, don't be so careless. We don't have any weapons, how can we possibly defeat them?!"
They were all young men who were willing to follow because Ji Gang was strong and courageous.
But after being out for so long, they didn't find much supplies. So what were they going to do in front of axes and kitchen knives? Now they were being scolded by the former, so they naturally didn't accept it.
Ji Gang made a "Pooh" sound, picked up the axe and ran over to chop Tang Tian on the head.
He was a big guy and was wearing a lot of clothes, so he rushed over like a wall.
Tang Tian did not fight head-on, but dodged the first few blows. The two axes clanged against each other several times in the cold air, but there was no winner.
Tang Tian frowned, and seeing that Ji Gang was only wearing a thin mask and a down jacket hood, she immediately took out her nail gun and shot at him twice.
"Fuck, this woman has a gun?!"
"No, it's impossible. How can an ordinary person have a gun these days?"
Everyone was shocked and subconsciously took several steps back, fearing that they would be in trouble as well.
And the next second, Ji Gang's scream was heard, almost tearing through the night sky:
“Ahhh! It hurts so much! What the hell is this!——”
Ji Gang fell to the ground, even throwing away the axe in his hand, and kept touching his face with both hands.
Although there were traces of blood, it did not splatter. It was probably frozen in an instant by the low temperature.
Tang Tian breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that his aim was pretty good. The bullet must have hit Ji Gang right in the eye, completely rendering him unable to move.
Thinking of this, she turned to look at the others, and a few younger ones shivered and took a few steps back, even about to overlap with the darkness.
"Damn it, why don't you come over and help me up!"
Ji Gang covered his face and yelled angrily. He closed his eyes and endured the excruciating pain, but kept saying:
"Bitch, if you can, don't let me see you again, or you'll be in trouble—"
Before he could finish his words, Tang Tian fired another shot, directly into his mouth.
Now he could say nothing except grunting and screaming.
Tang Tian snorted coldly, and left the scene with Tang Yi, leaving behind a mess and people who looked at each other in bewilderment and dared not move forward.
…
Tang Yi felt that Tang Tian was getting more and more powerful. She wanted to put her skills into practice, but unfortunately the enemy was too useless. In the end, he was completely scared and even watched the show with her.
She thought of this and shook her head helplessly. However, she was also a little envious.
"It's okay, sister. Just go back and practice more."
Tang Tian consoled herself, saying that she had suffered in her previous life before she began training on her own. Even with training, she didn't have much energy. But in order to get supplies when she went out, she had no choice but to continue training.
There was enough food in this life, so there was no need to worry too much. Plus, with so much information, Tang Yi and Wei Mingxia would definitely be able to protect themselves in the end.
The sky grew darker. Tang Yi, shining a powerful flashlight, accidentally scanned the outside of a store and saw a man standing at the door, who seemed to be keeping watch. She exclaimed, "Hmm?" and asked,
"Tiantian, look at that, isn't it
Tang Tian also shone a light over there, but before she could recognize him, the person at the door was holding a light source.
Looking at the sign again, it turned out to be a pharmacy.
Medicines are also in short supply and cannot be bought in stores. They have probably been cleared out by people living nearby. What is lacking are cold and fever reducers, anti-inflammatory drugs, frostbite creams and the like.
Tang Tian stockpiled a batch of medicines. If she didn't count them, the amount would become less and less, not to mention that she could only pretend in front of outsiders.
"Hello, neighbor."
, and cleared his throat.
It was really cold that day, and they were doing things that they would never do in the past, so they always felt a little guilty when they saw people.
Tang Tian said okay calmly and wanted to go in. Cheng Jing stepped aside to make room for her.
At first, the two men were looking for ignition materials in the broken shop doors, but when they saw the pharmacy that had been visited, they began to feel conflicted.
Although they brought back some medicine, it was of no use. Coincidentally, Yan Chunhua and Shen Yaoyue got frostbite again, so they decided to come in and search.
As soon as Tang Tian entered the door, Shen Boyun came out from behind the counter. Seeing that it was them, he relaxed a little.
He was wearing a high-necked thick down jacket, so the lower half of his face was also covered, and no one saw his slightly ashamed expression that turned red instantly.
Tang Tian winked at Tang Yi, and the two of them went to the other side of the shelf to look for something, without saying a word. She knew that it was best not to say anything at this moment.
There were not many medicines left in the pharmacy, only frozen eye drops, stomach medicine and a few bottles of vitamins, which they quietly stored in the warehouse.
Since there was really nothing left and Tang Tian still wanted to go home, she and Tang Yi walked out again.
However, at this moment, Shen Boyun asked:
"Um...Excuse me, do you have any frostbite cream?"
Things that have no owner belong to whoever gets them. Shen Boyun put all the medicines he saw into his backpack, but he still couldn't find the most important frostbite cream.
Seeing that 1701 finished the search so quickly and was about to leave, he still opened his mouth to ask.
"I don't have any. They've probably all been taken. A lot of people need this stuff now."
Tang Tian replied:
"But there shouldn't be only one pharmacy here. Why don't you go check out other stores?"
Although Shen Boyun was disappointed, he still agreed.
Such a submissive attitude made Tang Tian feel as if she was in another world, as if they were not doing anything illegal or criminal.
I can only say that this is all forced by the end of the world.
Tang Tian sighed silently and left the pharmacy with Tang Yi.
…
Only after the two returned home did Wei Mingxia finally feel relieved.
The energy ball in the fireplace was still burning, and the room remained warm like a spring breeze.
Tan Tan kept circling at their feet and whimpering, as if complaining that they were not taken out.
Tang Tian did not tell Wei Mingxia what happened on the road, for fear that she would worry more.
Thinking that it was late and my mother and sister needed to rest, I went to boil some hot water and mixed it with well water.
The three of them took a quick shower and fell asleep by the fireplace, spending the night in silence.
Early the next morning, the red energy ball was still burning in the fireplace.
Wei Mingxia woke up even earlier, heated up a pot on the fireplace, and found a few bags of frozen fried dumplings to prepare breakfast.
There was a subtle sizzling sound, and soon a faint fragrance was emitted. Tang Tian immediately opened his eyes, stood up and stretched comfortably.
After washing up with hot water with Tang Yi, breakfast was ready: fried dumplings with three fresh ingredients, round fried eggs and hot milk. A separate portion was also made for Tan Tan and was cooling down.
After the adventure last night, Tang Tian was already starving. She made two spring rolls in the system and started to feast on them.
After a quick burp, Wei Mingxia went to the constant temperature greenhouse to tend to her crops. Tang Yi, holding Tan Tan, and Tang Tian counted their harvest from the previous night.
There are about eighty express boxes and bags of various sizes in total, which is relatively small compared to before.
There is also a small safe, and the rest are supplies collected from hardware stores, braised food stores, pharmacies, and various other places.
The others continued to be left there, Tang Tian rubbed his hands and started to open the blind boxes!
After unpacking all the packages, they found that more than half of these express packages were probably purchased when the hail had just stopped and society had returned to some order: there were thick clothes, various foods, and also heating materials.
Especially food, if kept in the future, each one will be more precious than gold.
The express delivery station is really a place where you can get rich quickly!
"Tiantian, look!"
Tang Yi also got something. Tang Tian tilted her head and found that the former had taken out two thickened helmets and even two sets of chest protectors and anti-fall suits!
This was probably bought for the hail, but unfortunately I didn't get it.
Tang Tian then opened a large cardboard box, but to her surprise it was filled with energy bars and compressed biscuits.
It seems that there are people who can see the situation clearly. These are much more useful than those fancy things.
Unfortunately, she got the upper hand.
On the other side, Tang Yi opened a large box of heating pads, hot water bottles, hot foot pads, and especially small heaters.
After unpacking and sorting the express packages, Tang Tian took out the safe again.
This is a password-type safe, so it is naturally impossible for her to know the password. So she directly used the gold-attribute ability with Tang Yi!
As the changes continued, a hole gradually appeared in the door of the safe, and the two men stopped only when they could see inside.
The bad news: there's no gold in this.
Good news: there are also diamond rings, jade bracelets and jadeite!
These are probably people who are short of money at home who want to stock up and take them to recycling shops to exchange for money. The number is not large.
Tang Tian quickly took it out and let the system spend money, and the safe could be kept and used in the future when metal was needed.
"Host, these are all second- and third-tier items, and their quality isn't very good, so they can cost a total of 6,000 gold coins. Are you sure you want to spend all of them?"
Tang Tian was stunned, thinking she had misheard.
But no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, so she finally chose to spend all her money.
Now the total amount of gold coins in the gold bar is about 10,000. This is definitely not enough to upgrade the warehouse or open the superpower bar, so I have to do something else.
Tang Tian had almost unlocked all the N-level recipes, so she bought the [R-level recipe 2] first. The remaining money was just enough to upgrade the food acquisition area once.
Each acquisition site has fixed upgrades, and the whole site can also be upgraded. It is said that new food acquisition sites can also be added.
After thinking about it, Tang Tian decided to upgrade the [Farmland] first to increase the variety and shorten the acquisition time.
These gold coins are really not enough! Tang Tian complained silently in his heart.
I can only continue to make delicious food in the future, or go out and buy it for free!
