He Tianming has distinct features. Jiang Ning recognized him at first sight, even though he was obviously thin and old.

His face was calm, but his heart was still in turmoil.

The pig-killing knife of the end of the world is particularly sharp.

I still remember when I first met He Tianming, he was gentle and elegant, even though he experienced even worse disasters later, but he rose from the person in charge of Aoyuan to the deputy mayor of Fengcheng.

The years have aged his face, but sullied his temperament.

But now he is a withered old man.

He is so thin that he seems to be easily blown down by the Arctic wind.

Jiang Ning had mixed feelings in his heart, but his face was calm and peaceful. After Ivante's introduction, he showed the appropriate expression of meeting a fellow countryman in a foreign land.

"What a fate! I didn't expect that we are from the same hometown of Fengcheng."

After the greetings, Ivante led everyone to work.

They brought wood piles and steel, all of which were found on the transport ship, to expand the area of ​​the igloo.

First, they chose a piece of land, repeatedly tamped the snow, and then used a sharp long knife or saw blade to cut it into large snow bricks, and piled them up one by one.

As it was related to the supply of green vegetables, Ivante was particularly concerned about the igloo, "Jiang, it will take a long time for the snow bricks to freeze into ice. You should find a way to get snow melt water."

So Jiang Ning took Doudou to scoop snow from outside, boiled it, and carried it out in a wooden bucket.

Ivante took a spoon and gently sprinkled it on the snow bricks.

It was several dozen degrees below zero, and the snow and water quickly merged and froze, with the hardness increasing.

The project was huge, and Jiang Ning provided food for the crew.

The baked potatoes and crocodile meat were exchanged with Ivante before. They

were baked in the igloo, and everyone sat around the fire, roasting potatoes or grilling meat, and taking a big gulp of vodka was so refreshing.

Jiang Ning put a few crocodile eggs into the boiling iron pot, and then threw in a few green vegetables. As

soon as the pot was opened, it was snatched up, so fast that I wanted to reach into the pot with my hands to grab them.

Ivante ate very fast and spoke in a hypocritical manner, "Jiang, Huo, why don't you eat?"

Jiang Ning smiled, "You've worked hard today, eat more."

After drinking the egg drop and vegetable soup, Ivante ate the crocodile meat in big mouthfuls, "If there is chili and some cumin, it will be perfect."

I miss the barbecue, hot pot, brine and bean juice in China.

Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen only ate potatoes, and would not touch food that they were not sure was 100% safe.

As for Doudou, neither of them let her show up.

The girl has grown up, and her beauty is blooming in the prosperous times, but it is not a good thing in the end times. There are

more and more survivors in the Arctic, and the bears have taken the old path of the former big brother and are constantly recruiting soldiers and horses to expand their strength.

The vast majority of the survivors are men. What if Wenmun becomes lustful and has inappropriate thoughts about Doudou?

Therefore, Doudou tries not to show up, and even if he does, he will wrap himself up so that only his eyes are exposed.

The ruthless couple became more vigilant after being beaten, and would not make any sound unless there was a special situation.

Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen helped, and finally built the snow house around dusk.

The place is quite spacious, more than enough for growing vegetables, but they are worried that the snow bricks are not strong enough and will suddenly collapse.

"Jiang, please believe in my skills, it will definitely keep warm and safe." Ivante said confidently, "Make a fire and bake it, the hot water vapor will float upwards, and it will be more solid when it solidifies into ice in the house."

Jiang Ning thanked them and sent them out.

She didn't talk too much to He Tianming and the others, and said goodbye to them all equally, "Be careful on the road."

Ivante waved, "Jiang, Huo, Happy New Year."

The two said in unison, "Happy New Year."

Jiang Ning noticed that He Tianming's expression was a little complicated, but he soon returned to his numb and dazed look.

On the way back, Ivante happened to be riding on the same snowmobile with He Tianming.

Seeing him sitting in a daze with his arms around his body, Ivante was thoughtful, "He, are you afraid of us?"

He Tianming came back to his senses, "Before the natural disaster, our two countries were very friendly, and you rescued us from the joint base. We don't even have time to thank you, so how could we be afraid of you?"

Ivante smiled a little cunningly, "But, I always feel that you are afraid of us."

"I am indeed afraid." He Tianming did not rush to refute, "I am not afraid of you, but of all the survivors.

Natural disasters devour human nature. I have seen people cannibalizing their own children and killing each other, but all of this is forced by the end of the world.

If there is a choice, no one is willing to do so, but the reality forces them to do evil. Many people are angels today and may be demons tomorrow, so fear is human instinct."

He Tianming looked at Ivante calmly, "Do you understand what I mean?"

Ivante did not answer directly, "In fact, Jiang and Huo are very good people. They understand medicine. " They have saved our teammates before.

They are your compatriots. If you want to leave, I can talk to them. I believe they will be willing to lend a hand and take you in.

You can grow vegetables and trade with us. We are all friends."

He Tianming shook his head and said, "When it comes to life and death, even fathers and sons will draw their swords against each other. What's the point of brotherhood? I am quite satisfied with the current situation. I can get food through labor.

Natural disasters are not easy for everyone. I don't want to rely on anyone for help, so I won't bother them."

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Ivante said nothing more.

The motorcycle roared in the ice and snow, and soon returned to the camp.

He Tianming and others received two baked potatoes and returned to the underwater bunker to rest.

This was their dinner tonight, which was barely enough to make them full.

Yang Weimin sat over, "Are the Russians testing you again?"

"Just get used to it." He Tianming peeled off the burnt black soil skin and put it into his mouth, chewing slowly, "I'm afraid that the dragon slayer will eventually become a dragon."

Yang Weimin frowned, he was right.

The Russians destroyed the joint base, but they are slowly turning into a joint base.

They have recruited more than half of the prisoners, and during this period they are also recruiting soldiers and horses, and subduing batches of survivors who landed in the Arctic.

Yang Weimin was worried. "I heard that a group of our country's survivors landed some time ago. There were more than 200 survivors in total. The Russians not only did not recruit them, but they became more wary of us after returning."

He Tianming nodded. "This guy called Ivante seemed to be very good to Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen, but he was actually secretly on guard against us."

It was a matter of survival, so complicated that it was hard to describe it in one sentence.

Yang Weimin couldn't figure it out. "Since they were so wary of us, why didn't they kill us quietly?"
