Encounter the Ice Age

The ice and snow chipped away the features of the low-rise buildings, and Zhaoqing struggled to identify them.

Chen Yang: "Is it here?"

"Well, the red top is the symbol of the gasoline warehouse, which means that fireworks are strictly prohibited. Hanni said that he lives behind the warehouse for the convenience of taking care of his old mother. Let's go down and have a look."

Chen Yang followed Zhaoqing out of the car, and the two knocked on the top window of the warehouse, but no one responded. Chen Yang wiped the snow off the window and saw the frozen gasoline tank inside.The two walked around the red-roofed warehouse several times and found the living room, but they still didn't see Hanni.

They entered the place with traces of life through the broken window on the back side.

"Hanni's mother is over 80 years old?" Chen Yang looked through the cabinets, but the food and warming utensils were gone.

"Hanny said it himself."

Chen Yang: "There is no body, it seems that Hanni at least didn't panic when he left."

"Isn't it possible that other survivors took everything here?"

"No, you see there are very few footprints here. Except for you and me, there are only footprints of a man in his prime, and there are no old people."

"You can even see this." Zhaoqing was very impressed, he followed Chen Yang's eyes to observe the surroundings.

"Ayang, there are wheelchairs. Hanni's mother may not be able to walk. Do you think they are still alive?"

"The old people and children in this world can easily survive the moment of turbulence. The former is because of experience, and the latter is because of luck." Of course, these two types of people are also the two types of people who are most likely to die after the turmoil, because their ability to survive is not enough. high.

"Let's go, go to the warehouse." Chen Yang led Zhao Qing's footsteps and paused.

how? Zhao Qing looked at Chen Yang who was standing still and asked.

"...I don't think I can ask if this is what you fell out of." Chen Yang pointed at the underside of the old-fashioned sewing machine, where there is a reflective roundness,

Zhaoqing was taken aback, he leaned down and pushed the small stone out from the gap of the pedal, wiped it on his body and held it in his hand to observe.

"There won't be two identical stones in this world, right? Ayang."

"Of course." Chen Yang is convinced of this, even two bullets that are exactly the same, let alone small stones that are not manufactured products.

"Wait a minute." Zhao Qing said, closing his eyes, rubbing his hand against the stone in his hand, and after a while, there was a rattling sound, and a pile of stones exactly like his hand hit the sewing machine and rolled around.

"Where do you get so many?" Chen Yang picked up these small stones from the ground.

Zhaoqing shook his head, he was very puzzled and followed Chen Yang to pick up stones, and finally counted a total of 37 stones.

"One at home, one at the 4S store, one at the bridal chamber, one here, and the rest??" Chen Yang dug out the previous clues, and he remembered these places.

"Could it be that they were scattered on and off the container when we collected it? Didn't we notice that it went into the storage warehouse together?"

"You do not know?"

Zhaoqing shook his head and said: "There are too many things in the storage warehouse. I rely on the concrete concept of a certain object to get them out. For example, I want a chocolate. This kind of general idea is useless. I have to think about what it is. Only chocolates packaged in the same shape, most of the time I rely on impressions, otherwise I always want to tidy up the storage warehouse."

"Well," Chen Yang was the first to take out the gun because he was very familiar with the shape of the gun.

Zhaoqing spread out his palms to find the small stones he just fished out from under the sewing machine, and he said: "I completely refer to the touch and shape of this stone to take out the same things from the small world storage warehouse, and then...they come out together gone."

Meaning that for the Small World Warehouse, these little rocks are exactly the same.

"...There is no difference with the naked eye." Chen Yang carefully compared the small stones, from the luster to the color to the size and even the radioactive lines inside, they were all the same.

"Fuck!" Chen Yang said, throwing the small stone in Zhaoqing's hand into the pile of small stones in front of him, saying: "There will be no radiation!"

"Hey! You have weird brains now, they are very gentle stones, okay." After Zhaoqing finished speaking, she also paused.

"...Why do you describe a stone with tenderness?"

"Uh... I don't know either. I don't think there's anything scary about them. Don't be like this, okay?" Zhaoqing was rarely bolder than Chen Yang, and he really felt that this little stone exuded the soft and radiant luster of a loved one.

"Meow!" Xitang poked her head out of Chen Yang's pocket and nuzzled the small stone with the tip of her nose.

"Look, Happy Candy doesn't think there's anything wrong."

"It's scattered everywhere in no way, but it's exactly the same." Chen Yang frowned, but he couldn't help but smile with his own imagination: "Maybe this is the first batch of mission props given to us after the end of the world. Let's go."

"It seems that you have played online games too," Zhao Qing said, holding up the little stones with a pillow towel.

Chen Yang: "Put it in the storage warehouse, it's okay if there is radiation, it's really strange."

"Compared to the existence of the small world, what's so strange about it, I quite like it." There are too many anomalies in this world, and the two of them won't be entangled in a missing point.

Chen Yang: "Okay, you like to turn around and see that my husband will keep it for you."

"Okay, then let's put it in a glass bottle as a decoration."

"What are you talking about..." Chen Yang led Zhaoqing out of the room to do what he had planned.

The two stepped on the gasoline tanks and looked at the warehouse filled with seawater. Chen Yang shook the submerged gasoline tanks, and there was only the sound of a small amount of liquid sloshing inside. When the hurricane passed, the temperature dropped below the freezing point of gasoline. At the moment, it becomes an ice lump and then slowly thaws after the temperature rises, and it has not completely returned to liquid.

Chen Yang collected all the gasoline cans on the upper floors, and looked at the gasoline cans below.Gasoline is a good thing, and it's frustrating not to be able to get it right in front of you.

Chen Yang: "The upper ones are easy to get, the lower ones..."

Zhaoqing walked around in the empty space. He recalled what Hanni had said to him, and suddenly remembered: "Shelf! Shelf! All the gasoline in this place is placed on an iron shelf half a meter above the ground to prevent the Fire. We can close the iron shelf!"

Zhao Qing became excited, Chen Yang didn't bother Zhao Qing, he watched Zhao Qing's hand resting on the iron shelf at the edge of the warehouse.

Zhaoqing tried a few times and there was no change. He put down his hands and closed his eyes to meditate for a while, and then put his hands on the iron shelf. Then the huge ice cracking sound hit their eardrums, and they didn't react. Suddenly, a strangely shaped hole appeared in the entire warehouse.

The two fell down, and Chen Yang caught Zhaoqing and his back fell on a protruding ice. Fortunately, the two of them wore many layers and were not injured.

Chen Yang looked at the sharp ice edges all around, and hugged Zhaoqing with lingering fear: "Damn, it's good to wear thick clothes! Xiaoxiao, did you scratch?"

"Ah Yang, are you okay?" Zhao Qing hurriedly got up, Chen Yang was under his cushion and didn't know if he was injured, he tripped several times when he got up.

"I'm fine, be careful, the ice is like a knife." Before Chen Yang finished speaking, he saw Zhao Qing pressed his hand on an upright edge, scratching his palm, and the red blood dripping was very dazzling.

"What did I say!" Chen Yang's face sank all of a sudden, gauze was pressed on Zhaoqing's hand, and the blood was still flowing after pressing for a long time, the wound was not shallow.

Chen Yang didn't have time to teach Zhao Qing a lesson at this time, he treated Zhao Qing's wound.

Zhao Qing's hands were numb from the cold all the time outside, but he didn't feel any pain. He watched Chen Yang who lost his temper and sucked the snot from his nose, but he didn't say anything.

Chen Yang checked repeatedly to confirm that there was no need for stitches before he was relieved. He looked up to see the poor Zhaoqing and said, "I'm not teaching you, I should have reminded you earlier. Sigh..."

Chen Yang patted Zhaoqing's coat to shake off the ice, and asked, "Am I being too aggressive?"

"It's a bit fierce." Zhaoqing said in a low voice.

Chen Yang's brows are sharp and angular, no expression equals seriousness without anger, but if he is angry, his brows will immediately look like a rakshasa, as if he will eat people in the next second.

"I feel sorry for you," Chen Yang kissed Zhao Qing's face, and joked, "Do I look like a person who is capable of domestic violence?"

"Huh? It's not like that."

"Then you don't have nothing to shrink into a quail and forget about the thing you said you were alive last time. I will protect you, and no one can beat you again, little one, including me."

Zhaoqing didn't find those secret emotions hidden in her heart, those imprints left by her own experience, they were like being bitten by a poisonous snake, and she would be shocked when she saw the rope.It was the instinctive shrinking of the uncontrolled soul, but now there is a person who sees all this and tells Zhaoqing, don't be afraid, I will protect you.

Zhaoqing put her arms around Chen Yang's neck, and hugged her very hard.

"Crying again? Cry a little bit."

"Where is it? Where did I cry?" Zhaoqing pressed her finger on her lying silkworm to indicate that there were no tears in her eyes, "Chen Yang, if you laugh at me again, I will really show you what crying is."

Chen Yang was stabbed by his lover, he kissed Zhaoqing's cheek and sucked hard until he was pushed away before saying: "Let's go, let's find a way to climb up from here."

Chen Yang looked for a while before he found the foothold. He took off the heat preservation measures on the outside of his shoes and tried climbing up in Martin boots.Putting away the scarf and windbreaker jacket and simply wearing a sweater, he held an ax in his hand and said, "Wait for me down there for a while."

"Be careful." Zhaoqing didn't even think about it, they were about five meters away from the top window, and he definitely couldn't go up.

Zhaoqing saw Chen Yang's skills, and in a split second, Chen Yang tapped the ice surface with his ax for strength, avoided the thorns produced by the ice a few times, and had already turned over the ventilation window when they came.

A roll of rope appeared in Chen Yang's hand, he quickly knotted it on the window and jumped down to wrap the rope around Zhaoqing's body.

Zhao Qing was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "Can all soldiers jump directly from the second or third floors?"

"Uh, the second floor was fine before and the third floor didn't dare to say," Chen Yang said, looking up and then looking down at his hands, "My strength and reaction speed seem to have improved. It would be great if Ah Jing was there." , he can help me measure the level of physiological and biochemical functions to see how much I have improved."

Ah Jing is the military doctor that Chen Yang said. When Ah Yang did not return to society, Ah Jing had been on missions with the Chen family all year round, and now he should be by Chen Mo's side.

"We will definitely find a satellite phone at the next stop." Zhaoqing said as he saw Chen Yang tie the rope around him, and said, "I can tie the rope myself, you don't need to take it off."

"Wrapped around the waist or around the neck?" Chen Yang jokingly passed the rope under Zhaoqing's creaking nest, and then wrapped it around his waist again, "There is a way to hang the rope, if you use it casually, you will be easily injured, and you Pull this head."

Zhaoqing looked at herself and asked, "Am I too heavy?"

"If my wife can't pull it up, then I'll quit eating in the future." Chen Yang forgives me for pressing a few times and returns to the ventilation window, wrapping his arms around the rope, Zhaoqing slowly ascends.

Chen Yang: "You won't shake if you don't move, don't touch the ice edge."

"Okay." Zhao Qing looked up at Chen Yang, several layers of clothes could not cover the tense lines of his arm muscles, it was Zhao Qing's admiration, full of masculine Kong Wu's strength.

Just as Zhaoqing stood firm, he untied the rope and pulled off his clothes to hug Chen Yang. He stuffed Chen Yang's hands into his clothes and said, "It's too cold to wear only a sweater!"

"Go back to the car first, let's think about how to do it." Chen Yang picked up Zhaoqing as if he was wearing a piece of clothing, and the two of them moved back into the car.

Chen Yang didn't feel cold after the activity, so he simply threw down a lot of thermal protection measures, including the windbreaker and felt shoes on the back seat.

"Seven red tops, we took one." Chen Yang counted the surrounding red tops, and asked again: "The metal frame can be taken in as a whole, right?"

"Well, you need to concentrate, try it later."

"Okay," Chen Yang drove to the next one.

Chen Yang casually wrapped a rope around his waist and asked Zhaoqing to wait for him outside for a while, then he hung in through the ventilation window of the ceiling again, held the metal edge and tried several times but couldn't take it away.

"Ayang, don't try it yet, let me do it." Zhaoqing looked at the sky and was afraid that it would snow soon.

Chen Yang came out and replaced Zhaoqing, the knot was carefully threaded through Zhaoqing's chest and wrapped around his waist like an actor's wire.

Zhao Qing walked to the edge and held the metal frame, while Chen Yang held the rope and shouted at the ventilation window: "Come."

Zhaoqing closed her eyes and concentrated on hearing the sound, and it took about half a minute to be empty. "Ah!" With a sound, Zhaoqing lost all strength under his feet and suddenly fell, swinging from the edge to the center and shouting.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, my husband is holding you!" Chen Yang exerted his hand and Zhaoqing was lifted up for a while and slowly returned to the ventilation window.

"Oh, my big baby," Chen Yang pulled Zhaoqing into his arms as soon as he met Zhaoqing, and asked, "Are you scared?"

Zhao Qing was a bit embarrassing. He was 1.7 meters nine anyway, and he was a decent big man. Maybe he was really too timid.

"Who doesn't hang in his heart for the first time, and won't shout later, I'm bungee jumping, hurry up! Try to get it done before lunch."

"Yo, you're amazing." Chen Yang looked at Zhaoqing who wanted to take off his mask when he was about to speak, and tapped Zhaoqing's forehead to remind him: "Don't take off your mask, you're a bit self-conscious about being a thief!"

"Again!" Zhaoqing gained confidence with her successful experience.

The rest of the warehouse was much smoother, Zhaoqing learned to accept the weightlessness with her mouth pursed, and raised her head to wave at Chen Yang for the last time.The two of them worked together, and they actually completed the storage of several gasoline tanks in the warehouse after twelve o'clock.

Seeing that Chen Yang got into the car, Zhao Qing stretched out his hands to cover Chen Yang's hands. Chen Yang got on and off the car wearing a sweater and dragged the rope, his hands were red from the cold.

"It's too cold, the air conditioner for the meeting!"

"It's okay." Chen Yang wiped his nose, took the thermos cup in Zhaoqing's hand, poured down a large pot of ginger soup, and said, "That Hanni told you so much information the first time he saw you, what do you think?" Don't you think he keeps reminding you? Is it necessary to tell the buyer that the gasoline warehouses are all red?"

"Eat red bean pancakes, okay?"

"Okay." Chen Yang stuffed the hot red bean cake into his mouth and took two bites.

Zhao Qing followed Chen Yang's words and said: "The cultural structure here pays much attention to privacy. According to the logic, Hanni should not tell a buyer about his family structure and where he lives. He also said that everyone has secrets. Not interested in my secrets, hope we are all lucky."

"This old man is a bit interesting." Chen Yang said, turning his head to look at Zhao Qing who was concentrating on eating the cake.

Zhaoqing felt Chen Yang's eyes looking at his lover with a smile, Chen Yang pinched his lover's cheek, he wondered if his lover's little tail was also seen by others.I don't know if this Hanni is alive, and if he is alive, it is considered a danger to them.

At this point in his thoughts, Chen Yang stuffed all the cakes into his mouth, and muttered: "Let's hurry up, there is no suitable shelter around, and guarding against coming and going may not be able to guard against malicious eyes."

"okay."

Even if no one saw their actions at the moment, the people living nearby must know that the red top is gasoline, and when they dare to go out, this place will be raided as soon as possible.Someone must find the mottled thorns in the warehouse, the traces of forcible removal.

They are greedy in apprehension, but they cannot give up any resources because of possible dangers.Fortunately, wearing a mask the whole time made Chen Yang feel a little more at ease.
