Chapter 33
After Xie Haoyan failed three more times, on the fourth time, he finally found some doorways and his breathing suddenly became easier.

My breath was blocked before and I couldn't breathe no matter how hard I tried.

Now, it seemed that a hole had been opened, and everything suddenly became smoother, and along with it, the turnover of his physical strength and spiritual energy also slowly accelerated -

Three consecutive days of sunny weather gave everyone a glimmer of hope. Although the water level has not subsided, as long as it doesn't rain, everything will be easy.

9 month 6 number.

When the community informed them that they could go down to collect supplies, everyone was excited. Finally, there were supplies available.

But when they went down and stood in line on the corridor, they learned that they had to spend 1000 yuan to receive three potatoes, a carrot, an onion and a bag of noodles.

"No, it costs money? And it's so damn expensive. Just these few things, it costs a thousand?"

"That's not what I said two days ago. Why do you still need money?"

"Do you want love, don't go back, I want it anyway. Now I don't even have food, what else do I choose?"

The community worker standing on the assault boat shouted with a loudspeaker: "Residents, I have no choice but to ask you to spend money. You have also seen that the entire Nancheng was flooded, many original stocks were flooded, and trucks outside came in again." No, we have spent a lot of effort to achieve these things, I hope you understand."

Someone immediately echoed: "Yes, yes, we understand, you have worked hard too."

The staff member smiled gratefully at the man and continued: "We will try to send you more supplies, so please cooperate."

Someone asked: "Is it sold per head or per household?"

Staff: “Register by household.”

Even though many people are dissatisfied, they still spend money to receive supplies. ,
21th floor.

Li Xiaoyu withdrew his mental power, told Xie Haoyan, Gu Ning and others what happened downstairs, and then asked Xie Haoyan: "Brother Xie, shall we go down and get it?"

He said distressedly: "I have no money, my parents only give me some pocket money, and the total is only [-]."

Lei Xiaojun patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, even if you don't receive it, our food can last a month."

In fact, he didn't have much money. He only had a few thousand dollars in his card and he was reluctant to spend it.

Gu Ning looked at Xie Haoyan: "Are you going down to get it?" She didn't need to get supplies either, as there were plenty at home.

Everyone else also looked at Xie Haoyan, who shook his head: "If you don't accept it, I have a hunch that there will be more places to spend money in the future, and the money will depreciate."

He looked at everyone: "We still have supplies in hand, so we are not in a hurry to get them this time. Haven't you noticed that the temperature is getting lower and lower?"

Several people nodded.

Xie Haoyan looked serious: "Perhaps, we are going to enter another extreme climate. Assuming that the water below has not receded, but is frozen, then, wouldn't it be better for us to go out to look for supplies."

Gu Ning and Li Xiaoyu fell into silence. Xie Haoyan's hypothesis was not impossible, but how cold would it be to let the water freeze.

Su Xiaomi sat quietly aside, not interrupting or expressing her position.

She is completely in a bad mood now. Anyway, there is space in Yanyan, so she can just hide in the space if there is danger.

Lei Xiaojun frowned and said, "Brother, do you know what you're talking about? Ice? When it's coldest in Nancheng in winter, there's only a thin layer of lakeside. Listen carefully, it's the edge."

Xie Haoyan asked back: "Then when did the flood occur in Nancheng?"

Lei Xiaojun: "."

"No, the flood was an accident. It has rained heavily for so many consecutive days. Although it is unbelievable that there will be a flood, it makes sense. But it is frozen and walking on the ice is too fantasy. This is not the Northeast."

However, Gu Ning looked at Xie Haoyan, with an inquisitive look in his eyes: "Why did you think that we might enter another extreme climate, instead of the water level receding and returning to normal?"

Xie Haoyan looked at Gu Ning calmly: "Why can't I think of it? Haven't you noticed? It has started to get cold since September 9nd, and this coldness is not the coldness of early autumn, but the biting cold. But you guys Have you noticed this problem? Liqiu just came yesterday, but you have already put on your down jacket, isn't this obvious enough? "

Gu Ning's eyes were solemn: "I just found out, so I don't want to accept it."

Su Xiaomi couldn't help but say: "So, may we enter winter early? Or is it a cold winter?"

Xie Haoyan nodded: "It's very possible. Everyone, please be mentally prepared."

Li Xiaoyu spoke at this time: "Someone died below, and the distribution of supplies has been interrupted."

Others quickly looked at Li Xiaoyu: "What happened?"

Li Xiaoyu took a deep breath and said with an ugly face: "A big trap suddenly appeared under our building. The community worker standing in the assault boat was dragged into the water by the trap, and then the water turned red."

Everyone is silent!

Li Xiaoyu frowned again: "It's a mess down there now. Some people fell down while escaping and were trampled on by people behind them and broke their legs. Some people also took the opportunity to take the vegetables on the assault boat——"

Gu Ning stood up quickly and went to the balcony to look down. There was indeed a large amount of blood below, and the assault boat had already driven outside the community.

Su Xiaomi came to Gu Ning's side, and after seeing the bloody water below, she said in a serious tone: "Perhaps, the other extreme that Yan Yan said is not without benefit. If the things in the water are frozen, there will not be so much danger. "

Gu Ning was not optimistic: "Things in the water were frozen, but what about the other animals? Didn't you see that many of the owners of Buildings 3 and 4 were eaten by dogs? There are cats and dogs in every community in Nancheng. There are a lot of them, but have you noticed that except for the dogs in 3-4 buildings in this community, where are the other cats and dogs?"

Su Xiaomi looked at Gu Ning in horror; "What do you mean, all the cats and dogs in our community are hiding?"

At this time, Xie Haoyan, Lei Xiaojun and others also came over, and Xie Haoyan said: "After the flood broke out, many people said in the group that their cats and dogs disappeared, as if they disappeared overnight. Recently, everyone has been affected by the flood and The things in the water made people panic, and they ignored the disappearing cats and dogs.”

Gu Ning answered: "So, it is not safe for things in the water to be immobile. On the contrary, the more dangerous time is coming."

Those who stay in the water may not be able to hurt them, but if the animals that move on the ground are mutated, that will be the most terrifying thing.

Everyone’s heart is heavy!

They thought they would be fine once the water receded, but who knew that something more dangerous was waiting for them.

At night, the temperature suddenly turned cold. Su Xiaomi and Gu Ning both put on thick sweaters and down jackets. Gu Ning came to the corridor with a thermometer. After measuring the temperature, she was dumbfounded: "Minus 15 degrees?"

Gu Ning didn't believe that the temperature was real. He measured it in several places and found that the outdoor temperature was minus 18 degrees!
She quickly came to Xie Haoyan's house and knocked on the door: "Open the door quickly."

Su Xiaomi ran over and opened the door, sighing and saying, "What's wrong with Ning Ning? Breathe, it's so cold."

Gu Ning raised the thermometer in his hand: "What temperature do you want to see?"

Just for a moment, her hands were turned red from the cold.

"Minus 18 degrees? Are you kidding me?" Su Xiaomi looked at Gu Ning with wide eyes and exclaimed.

Xie Haoyan also came over wearing a down jacket: "The temperature has dropped too fast. I think more people will die now. I'll go down and see Lei Xiaojun and the others." After Xie Haoyan went downstairs, Su Xiaomi looked towards Gu Ning; "Ning Ning, should we have some late-night snacks, such as hot pot?"

"Hot pot? How dare you think about it. At your house or mine?"

"Pfft—" Su Xiaomi covered her mouth and smiled: "Come to my house, and call Lei Xiaojun and Xiao Yu when the time comes."

Gu Ning readily agreed: "Okay, let's be extravagant. By the way, you can bring the small vegetable seedlings I planted at night, otherwise they will freeze to death."

Su Xiaomi whispered: "The coriander I planted has also grown up."

The two looked at each other and smiled, both of them couldn't wait.

Xie Haoyan came to the 21st floor. Before he could knock on the door, he saw Lei Xiaojun hurriedly opened the door and came out. When he saw Xie Haoyan, he was stunned for a moment, and then pulled him into the house quickly.

"Brother, you came just in time. I wanted to look for thick clothes in the mall next door. Xiao Yu and I can't stand the cold."

Although they have sweaters, they are of no use. They now need military coats, thickened down pants, etc.

Xie Haoyan looked at Lei Xiaojun and Li Xiaoyu who were stamping their feet coldly. He was silent for a while and said, "It's useless even if you go to the mall next door. They're all soaked in water. How are you going to take them?"

"What should we do? There is a power outage and there is no heater. Even a young person like me can't bear this sudden drop in temperature. The older ones are miserable."

Xie Haoyan: "Do you still care about others? When I collected supplies, I got a few extra military coats and thick trousers. I'll give you two as a gift."

"Brother, you are my reborn parents." Lei Xiaojun hugged Xie Haoyan excitedly.

Xie Haoyan; "."

After they put on their military coats, they immediately felt warm. Looking at the dark sky outside, Lei Xiaojun said to Xie Haoyan: "Brother, I want to visit Sister Jiang later."

I went to see it a few days ago, and Jiang Caiqing lived with her mother at home, but after her daughter died, Jiang Caiqing's mother couldn't bear the blow and fell ill.

Although Xie Haoyan and Lei Xiaojun left some food at the time, their situation was not optimistic.

"Okay, Xiaoyu and I will go with you then."

He wanted to use Xiao Yu to see what had become of the things under the water.

Su Xiaomi whispered to Xie Haoyan: "Ning Ning and I both want to eat hot pot for late night snacks, will there be any trouble?"

She hasn't had hot pot since the beginning of the day, and now just thinking about it makes her mouth water.

Xie Haoyan chuckled, and patted his sister's head: "I'll take care of you if you're in trouble. Make more, let's eat some together."

Xie Haoyan still has some confidence. With the weapon in his hand and the breathing techniques he has practiced in the past few days, he can easily challenge twenty people alone.

When Su Xiaomi heard what Xie Haoyan said, she happily took his arm and said with a smile: "Your words are enough."

Her brother has really changed back. Sure enough, as long as he stays away from that woman Lin Hui, Xie Haoyan will become a normal person and become the responsible and courageous good brother she is familiar with.

Gu Ning couldn't help but look at Xie Haoyan more. He didn't expect this guy to be quite masculine. When he calmly said such domineering words, he suddenly felt that this man became a little more handsome.

Xie Haoyan didn't know what Gu Ning was thinking, but turned to Lei Xiaojun and Li Xiaoyu and said, "Let's go downstairs and have a look."

The two nodded. Before Li Xiaoyu left, he smiled at Su Xiaomi and said, "Sister, is there any chili sauce? I like spicy food."

Su Xiaomi smiled and touched his head: "Sister, I will arrange it for you."

The three of them were all wrapped up tightly, it was too cold, and the snot came out unconsciously, and the nose was sore when inhaling, which was very sour.

People from the south said that it was their first time to experience weather that was nearly minus 20 degrees Celsius, and they were not used to it!
When passing by the 19th floor, I met a big bear, oh no, it was a person. At first glance, I thought it was a brown bear that escaped from the zoo. It was tall and strong, and it was actually a bit scary.

"Yo, isn't this brother Xie, you want to go down?"

Listening to the voice, I knew it was Xu Hong.

He was wrapped in long fur and wore a mink hat, with only one pair of eyes exposed, and when he saw Xie Haoyan, his eyes lit up.

Usually you can't find the opportunity to get close to Xie Haoyan, this is a rare encounter, don't seize the opportunity.

Now, who in Building 6 doesn’t know that the Xie family on the top floor is a man with strength and resources? Everyone wants to curry favor with him, but it’s a pity that this person is not easy to talk to and can’t usually be seen.

Xie Haoyan didn't have a good impression of him. He remembered how he bullied his sister before, so he didn't answer.

Although Lei Xiaojun didn't know what Xu Hong had done before, it could be seen from Xie Haoyan's attitude that he didn't like this man named Xu Hong.

He spoke for Xie Haoyan: "Is something wrong?"

Seeing Xie Haoyan's indifferent attitude, Xu Hong also knew that what he had done before had offended him. He smiled awkwardly and said to Xie Haoyan:
"Brother Xie, I didn't think carefully about what happened in the previous group. I was joking at the beginning, but I didn't expect to cause trouble to our sister. I'm really sorry. Another day, I will definitely make an apology with a heavy gift. "

Xie Haoyan corrected him: "I'm sorry, my sister only has one younger brother. As for coming to apologize, I'm afraid you will scare my sister and Ning Ning again."

After saying that, he glanced at him and walked downstairs. Lei Xiaojun and the others quickly followed.

Xu Hong stood there awkwardly, looking at their backs, his eyes slightly narrowed——

The three people went out from the third floor window and found that it was snowing outside.

It's not a heavy snowfall, but it's not light either.

Li Xiaoyu was so happy when he saw the snow falling that he quickly reached out to catch the snowflakes, "Wow, it's actually snowing. Will it turn into a snow world tomorrow?"

Lei Xiaojun wrapped his military coat tightly, sniffed, and said: "According to this extreme weather, heavy snowfall will definitely happen in the future. What's there to be happy about?"

After taking another breath, he came to Xie Haoyan, who was squatting down, and followed his line of sight into the water: "Brother, what are you looking at?"

The ice underfoot was very thick, and it was night again. Even if Xie Haoyan shined a flashlight, what he could see was very limited.

Xie Haoyan waved to Li Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyu, come here and feel what's down here?"

Li Xiaoyu hurriedly came over and squatted down, and looked down with his mental strength, "There are many big frozen fish, and there are many ugly insects."

"anything else?"

"Also...wait a minute, there's something moving under the water."

Xie Haoyan quickly asked: "What is it?"
