End of the World, Rebirth as a Queen

This is a small county town, but because of the demolition, several resettlement houses were built taller, while the others are three- or five-story self-built houses.

Because of the heavy snow, Lu Zhu and the others couldn't see clearly.

The most important thing now is to find a safe place to stay that can accommodate the car.

But the people here are very vigilant. Even if there are vacant houses, they will not let people live in them and will keep their doors closed.

Finally, Lu Zhu and his team found an abandoned warehouse from the 1980s, which should have been the place where grain was delivered in the past.

The place is quite large and the terrain is higher than other places, but the houses are relatively old. The mottled exterior walls have turned black and peeled off due to the baptism of time, revealing the red wall bricks inside.

Even so, you can see words written in red paint on the walls everywhere: fire prevention, anti-theft, no fireworks allowed.

Although the times are progressing, some places and some things still preserve their unique memories.

Red brick house, iron door, unique architectural style, broken glass windows, and shaky signboards.

Although Lu Zhu and his friends had not experienced these past events, they could still feel the weight of history.

They pried open the door of a warehouse and parked the car inside.

The snow was too heavy, so they could certainly abandon the car, but it was a fixed asset and important material.

Fortunately, we found this warehouse, otherwise it would be really bad. After all, it is such a long way to go and we cannot do without transportation.

Now that the shelter problem has been solved, the only thing left to be solved is the problem of water and food.

Now that it snows, we can melt the snow into water, so food is very urgent. Although we have obtained a lot before, we really don’t know how long the snow will last.

It can be said that Chen Hua's worries were very correct, because this snow continued to fall for almost two months...

I don’t need to say more. Now I can’t even go out because the snow is too thick and has blocked the door.

People who originally lived in their own homes had to move to higher places.

The temperature also became very low. Lu Zhu took an outdoor thermometer and measured it at -45 degrees Celsius. The snowflakes were originally soft, but they became hard after a while after they hit the ground.

As the snow level continued to accumulate and rise, people living in lower-lying areas had to move up.

Even though it’s cold outside, it’s still pretty stressful living in a house where opening the door is like the freezer compartment of a refrigerator.

Because I didn’t know if I would freeze to death in the room the next moment.

As the snow piled up, Chen Hua and Luo Chenyang and their colleagues would shovel snow every day. At first, they just shoveled the roads they were going to walk on, then they dug out the plank roads like digging trenches, and later they started digging stairs in the snow to climb out.

The food is getting less and less, and the things that can be used as fuel are also gradually being consumed.

So going out to find food and firewood became an important task that everyone in the team had to complete.

Lu Zhu stood on the vast snowfield and could see the shape of the wind and snow with every step he took.

They were like quicksand and water ripples, circling and dispersing around her. Lu Zhu put on the rabbit fur coat she had sewn long ago.

Because of its appearance, when I first wore it, it caused surprise among others, but later on, people still envied me.

Because of this piece of clothing, the clothes Lu Zhu wears inside are more windproof and the cold-proof effect is twice as good.

The people in the convoy put on all the clothes they could wear. Maybe it was because they were from the south and couldn't withstand the cold that well, so frostbite was inevitable.

Fortunately, I received some medicine before, so even if I got frostbite it wasn’t that uncomfortable.

Lu Zhu did not reveal her true self to anyone, even to Chen Hua.

There were too many people in the convoy, and she couldn't guarantee her absolute safety.

Sometimes Lu Zhu would think of Lin Bei. It seemed that when she was with Lin Bei, she had never worried about these problems.

She can sleep peacefully and live peacefully without worrying about the disturbances around her.

But that’s not possible now. She must be alert at all times and keep a distance from people she doesn’t know.

They had walked a long way, so Lu Zhu released Xuan Guang and Zhi Zhi and asked them to show him the way.

Getting more food is the top priority and urgent matter now.

Although she has it, she can't let them become parasites. Sharing voluntarily and being forced to compromise are two different things.

It was too cold, and many animals hid themselves. Some of them were frozen to death and could be picked up directly, but because of the natural disaster, they became fewer and fewer, and more and more cunning.

Lu Zhu took out the crossbow he made himself. The weather was too cold and the gun would be easily damaged, so it would be more appropriate to use cold weapons.

Soon Lu Zhu saw Zhizhi digging snow, and Lu Zhu ran over excitedly.

Lu Zhu did not see the prey, but only heard some tiny noises, but because of the cold wind, he could not hear them clearly.

The crossbow was no longer useful, so Lu Zhu simply replaced it with a baseball bat, waiting for Zhizhi's final effort.

Sure enough, with Zhizhi's continuous efforts, the thing hidden under the snow jumped out, a gray ball with a long tail.

Not a mouse or something...

Seeing it was about to run away, Lu Zhu quickly hit it with a stick, and its world became quiet~

Lu Zhu lifted its tail, which was about three to five pounds. It was not as big as the mutated rat before, but it was still bigger than an ordinary rat.

At this time, Xuan Guang also ran over from a distance, holding a rabbit in his mouth. It seemed that there were not many animals nearby. If it were usual, Xuan Guang would be able to catch a pheasant, musk deer, wild boar or something like that.

Lu Zhu tied the mouse and the rabbit together, and after searching for a long time he finally found a tree with only the top of the tree exposed, and then he cut off the exposed branches.

Then I slowly walked back~

"I think we have to make a decision. There is nothing to eat around here. If we don't leave now, we will either freeze to death or starve to death here..." Yin Ze's voice came from the warehouse and fell into the ears of Lu Zhu who had just returned.

"Brother Chen, what do you think? We sisters will listen to you." This is Zhang Qing's voice

"But what about our car?" Luo Chenyang's voice was filled with reluctance.

"In this kind of weather, you will die if you go out..." Niu Desheng expressed his opinion helplessly.

"I'm heading south today, and I can't see anything to eat. I can't just stay here and wait to die!" Yin Ze obviously knew that what Uncle Niu said was true.

"There's not much firewood left..." Xu Qizhou said weakly.

The air suddenly became quiet~

"Make a decision! We can't delay it any longer..." Lu Zhu walked into the warehouse with Fengxue and spoke to his companions who were sitting together and roasting themselves by the small fire.

"Sister Lu Zhu, you're back~" Qi Xiaoyu came over with a smile to greet Lu Zhu.

"I'll get the branches~" Hu Xinjie also ran to Lu Zhu to show off.

It’s not that they don’t want to talk, but the atmosphere just now made it impossible for the two young ones to talk to each other, so they had to work to show their value and presence.

"You're back~" Chen Hua looked at Lu Zhu with a wry smile.

Seeing her coming back with something, the atmosphere in the warehouse instantly became softer, without the tension just now~
