The chosen boss of the end times, just wants to lie down

The next day, the temperature had dropped to -15 degrees Celsius. Chen Ye fished A Yuan and Tuan Zi out of the space, had a simple breakfast, left Uncle Li at home to take care of the two pets, and took the remaining three people with chainsaws and hatchets, drove two snowmobiles out to cut down trees.

Judging from the amount of firewood stored against the courtyard wall, there is actually no need to go out.

But Uncle Li was worried that the cold season would last too long and didn’t know if it would be enough, so he planned to take Li Xiong out to pick up some branches.

Chen Ye couldn't persuade him, and he also had a little selfishness, wanting to let the men in the family feel the cruelty of the end of the world. It was only minus 15 degrees now, and if it really reached minus 6-70 degrees, the breath would instantly turn into ice. How could they accept it? So they agreed to go out together. Uncle Li was too old to go out, so he was left at home.

The previous flood had frozen into thick ice, and the northwest wind was blowing hard. There was heavy snow overhead, blowing directly onto everyone in the strong wind.

Several people were dressed neatly, wrapped themselves tightly, and put hot packs on their clothes, pants, and even boots.

There was no sound in the entire neighborhood, so quiet that even the sound of snow falling could be heard.

When they started the engine and drove out, some owners huddled on the balcony and watched their backs as they drove away.

Dan Mo and Li Xiong rode the bikes in the front, shielding Chen Ye and Chen Chen from the wind and snow.

Tiandufu is a newly built community. The greenery is OK, but it is mostly shrubs and bushes, with few tall trees. Next to Chen Ye's house is the North District Park.

Behind the park are several hills that have not been soaked by the rain and are home to many trees.

At this point, she no longer had any scruples. No one cared whether she cut down the trees or not.

After chopping them here, just tie them up with ropes, drag them to the wall of the nearby Tiandu Mansion, and then hoist them in, which will save a lot of trouble.

Before reaching the foot of the mountain, Chen Ye saw quite a few people in front of her. It was only a little after 8 o'clock in the morning, but there were people who arrived earlier than her. Some of them even thought of coming here to chop trees for firewood?

Chen Ye had good eyesight and saw from afar a group of soldiers wearing camouflage down jackets, green felt hats, and cold-proof masks chopping down trees on the mountain with simple knives in their hands.

Most of the trees chosen were big trees, and no small trees were touched.

The scene was bustling and spectacular, with at least a hundred or eighty people.

Even though the tools were simple, there was a small mountain of wood placed nearby.

The wood was still wet and heavy. It would take several days to dry it after it was dragged back. There was no sun at the moment, so I didn't know when I could use it.

Chen Ye looked towards the mountain on the right where not many people were working, "Let's go over there, there's no need to join them."

When the chainsaw was turned on and made a loud electric sound, it still startled the soldiers who were cutting trees nearby. Later, some of them even walked towards them.

Chen Ye and Dan Mo, holding chainsaws, easily and quickly cut down one big tree after another, leaving Li Xiong and Chen Chen behind to simply trim the small branches with axes.

A voice came from behind: "Miss Chen, is that you?"

Chen Ye turned around and saw He Fen taking off his cold-proof mask, standing not far behind him, waving at him. There were also several people standing next to him, wrapped up tightly.

Chen Ye sighed softly, turned off the switch, and said to Danmo, "You continue, I'll be back soon."

He casually handed the chain saw to Chen Chen, "Xiao Chen, use this to trim the larger branches. Be careful not to hurt yourself. It's too cold. Let's go home now."

Then he walked up to He Fen.

He Fen's head was covered with snow. Because he took off his cold-proof mask, his dry and chapped facial skin and lips were exposed. When the wind blew, his nose and cheeks immediately turned red from the cold, and the breath he exhaled condensed into tiny water droplets.

Chen Ye nodded and said, "Put it on. It's too cold." Then he glanced at the person next to him.

Lian Yi and Li Guanglin's eyes are very easy to recognize.

Chen Ye remembered Li Guanglin's almond-shaped eyes at first sight last time.

At this time, Lian Yi was wearing a cold-proof mask. His eyes were slightly curved under his heroic sword-like eyebrows, with two bags under his eyes, showing that he was filled with joy.

But Chen Ye was unhappy. Every time he met them, there would be a lot of trouble.

As expected, Li Guanglin said in a loud voice: "Miss Chen, are you here to collect wood for firewood? We have asked a few soldiers to come and help."

Chen Ye looked at the soldiers behind him. They were holding ordinary knives, which were probably borrowed from the residential buildings in Jinsha Community.

He Fen looked honest, but now he was like an old fox. It was easy to tell what he was up to.

Chen Ye pointed to the back and said, "Sort out the trees I cut down, and I'll lend you the chain saw." Then he turned to the busy men and said, "Danmo, give them the tools. Someone is helping us with the work. Come over and rest for a while."

Several people handed the tools in their hands to the soldiers who came to take over the job, walked over, took out the water bottles in their backpacks, and drank the hot water.

Chen Ye drank some water, glanced at He Fen, and asked casually, "How are you guys doing?"

He Fen laughed dryly twice and said nothing.

Li Guanglin took up the topic: "That's it. We can't expect too much."

Chen Ye took out a handful of candy from his backpack and handed it to them.

Everyone looked at her as if she was coaxing a child and was reluctant to take it.

"Give it to the people who are working in the back later. Only the diligent ones will get some." Chen Ye said calmly, and then asked, "Has Geng Dahe received any news?"

He Fen shook his head. "Director Geng didn't come for the past two days. The weather has been cold these past two days, so it's probably hard to go out."

Chen Ye nodded in understanding. Then he looked at Lian Yi and said, "I remember Chu Huaifeng said that you guys don't seem to be assigned here. In this case, do you still want to continue your mission?"

Lian Yi hesitated for a while before speaking softly: "The mission has been cancelled. But we can't go back. Besides, the people here need us."

Chen Ye smiled and said nothing.

How much power does one person have? Even if we gather the power of hundreds of rescuers here, can we save the entire city?

Even I, who have so many supplies, dare not guarantee it. How can they be so confident?

In addition to laughing at their arrogance, Chen Ye still felt a surge of admiration in his heart. But why did he suddenly feel a little bitter?

Perhaps it is precisely because of this group of loyal people who have always insisted on justice in their hearts that they bring more hope to the survivors. After all, people rely on hope to support themselves to keep going. Chen Ye believes that he does not have such a great awareness and such a broad love.

I hope they can stick with it.
