Doomsday's Handle

"Give up the weapon and throw it out, the kid is here." Father Chen said.

"Okay." They agreed, and pushed the bound people out of the door, asking them to take the dead man's body away.

After the group left, Yu Feng greeted Chen Xi and followed the group.The rest of the people went back to nail the windows, and tidied up the mats and quilts that had been messed up just now.

"Xiaoxi, where did Yufeng go?" The uncle was very surprised that he didn't see Yufeng returning to his room.

"He went out after that group of people. He will come back when he is sure that those people have really left."

"En." Everyone continued what they were doing without opening their mouths.

After the gang of robbers left the community with their companion's corpse, they threw their companion's corpse into a corner and left.

"Brother, let's just forget about it?" Huang Mao was very unwilling to think about the warm house of the Chen family, filled with the smell of food.Others also kept echoing.

Their boss didn't make a sound and seemed to be thinking about something.

The black and thin man with a gun in Chen's house said: "It's definitely not possible now. Although there are many old and weak women and children among them, those young people are very skilled. They have suffered a big loss today and have no weapons. They can't act rashly for the time being. "

"We have to wait for the right time to strike when those young people are out. We can't be bullied in vain." The boss said angrily.Food is also very attractive to them.

"At that time, we must avenge today's revenge." A few hooligans booed, they were all beaten up today.

Yufeng frowned as he listened behind them, thinking that these people would not be able to stay.He followed this group of people to a remote place, checked that there was no one around, took out a dagger, and cut the throats of the few people in front of them with lightning speed, making a quick victory.It is snowing all the time now, and there is no need to bury the corpse, anyway, it will be covered by snow in a while.

When Yufeng returned home, Chen Xi pulled him outside the bedroom and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

"Those are not good people, they just left the community and threw away the bodies of their companions. They are still determined to rob them when only the elders are around."

"Then have you dealt with it?" Chen Xi thought that such people cannot be kept, and they cannot always be on guard.

"It's dealt with. Now taking care of the family is the most important thing."

"That's good. It seems that we have to hurry up and move. It's too dangerous here." Chen Xi was relieved when he heard that Yufeng had solved the problem.

"Well, let's try our best to find it tomorrow. It's getting late, let's rest, and we have to go out to look for a house tomorrow."

"Yeah." The two quietly returned to the bedroom to rest.

In the early morning, the aunt served noodles for everyone, the family had breakfast, and the younger generation was ready to go.There were only the elderly and children in the family. Chen Xi was worried, so he gave each of them a pistol, and also gave Chen's father two grenades separately, telling Chen's father that he would not be polite when encountering robbers or intruders, and he would shoot directly without asking too many questions. Don't be relentless when giving people a chance to attack.

After the arrangements were made at home, several people waited until the snow started to lighten around 10 o'clock before going out wrapped up in thick clothes.

After going out, they saw that they were not the only ones who went out, but also many young and middle-aged men went out to look for supplies, and some old people and women could also be seen during the process.These people are all wrapped up thickly. Due to the lack of supplies, some directly use ropes to fix the blankets on their bodies, and some wear down jackets that obviously don’t fit. .Most of these people are unkempt, sallow and thin, and there is a strong sour smell when they approach.Those people looked at Chen Xi, who was clean and tidy, and dressed warmly, and cast envious and hateful eyes.Chen Xi and the others didn't care, and continued to walk forward.

Due to the difficulty of walking in the snow, it took the two of them twice as long as usual to get to the counseling center.The central hall was full of people, and most of these people came to fetch water.A pot of charcoal fire was burning in the center of the hall, making the room much warmer.But so many people gathered together that the air in the hall was filthy and stinky, and the smell of feet and sweat mixed together made people sick.As soon as they entered, they were dizzy and dizzy.

The two went directly to the housing registration office and asked the staff about the house.

"There are vacant rooms now, here is the information sheet, you can find it yourself." The staff threw them a bunch of housing information and asked them to find it by themselves.

Chen Xi and Chen Rui checked for a long time, and were shocked by the exchange amount of the house. The above requirements were much lower than before.I remember that when they entered the base, they had to pay 200 catties of grain before changing the house.Now 100 catties can be exchanged.There are also vacant rooms in the complex where they live, but Chen Xi doesn't plan to take them.The conditions of the houses there were too poor. He still remembered that they were only plastered and empty.

"Brother, what kind of house are we going to choose this time?" Chen Rui looked at it for a long time and didn't know what kind of house to choose, so she asked Chen Xi directly.

"Look for a house with more rooms, renovated, with security doors and security cages on the third or fourth floor, preferably furnished."

"Well, then I'll look for it again." Chen Rui began to rummage again.

They searched for more than an hour in the pile of materials before they selected three places. These places each had their own advantages and it was difficult to make a decision. Chen Xi asked Chen Rui to write it down, and was going to go home to discuss with his family and bring food to exchange.

When Chen Xi and the others walked to the counseling center, they met an acquaintance.

"Third Aunt." Chen Xi shouted at the older and thinner Third Aunt who looked at Feng Yun in front of her.

"Xiao Xi, why are you here?" Third Aunt looked surprised when she saw Chen Xi.

"The whole family escaped."

"Yeah, the world is bad now, and the family has run out of food. I don't know where the next meal is. Xiaoxi, the third aunt can't help you." The third aunt heard that they had escaped, and she started to cry for fear of being entangled. .

"Yeah, Aunt San, we still have something to do, so let's go first." Chen Xi understood the meaning of Aunt San's words, felt that there was no need to continue talking with her, and took Chen Rui home.

On the other hand, Yufeng and the others also began to look around for vacant houses suitable for living.Since they were not familiar with the places where they were born, they didn't go very far, but just wandered around a few neighborhoods.

They would also come when Chen Xi got home, and the family gathered around the oven to eat a belated lunch.

"Xiaofeng, have you found anything?" Dad Chen asked.

"I didn't find a suitable one. If there is a registration office, it's better to look for it from there. You can rest assured."

"We went to the registration office and saw a few more suitable houses. We want to discuss with everyone, and then bring food to exchange. Chen Rui, please tell everyone."

"My brother and I are looking at three houses. One is in the neighborhood next door to us. It has just been built for two years. The previous owner must have turned into a zombie. The house is on the third floor, with four bedrooms and one living room. , the exchange needs 250 catties of grain. There is another set far away from us, with three bedrooms and one living room on the fourth floor, which has been decorated with anti-theft, no furniture, and needs 100 catties of grain for exchange. There is also a small villa, built 8 years ago, which is also far away from us. Not far away, my brother and I went to see the house, the house is a bit old, but fortunately, the old villa still has a wall, the house is in the middle of the wall, the doors and windows are anti-theft and it looks good, and it needs 350 catties of grain to exchange it.”

"Food is expensive now, so it doesn't matter if you live in a smaller house without furniture." The auntie and his wife are both farmers, and they are very obsessed with food.

"It's better to be close to us, and be safe when moving." Mother Chen is worried about the safety of her two children.

"I think it's better to change the villa. In the future, it will be an independent space after closing the door, and the two children will have a larger place to play. You can also grow some vegetables in the yard of the villa. Isn't it like this in those end-time novels?" Gao Peng often plays with the two children recently, and actually feels sorry for them being locked at home all day.

After hearing Gao Peng's words, the family fell silent, and began to think about whether to exchange for a villa.

"Let's change the villa. We don't lack that little food. After the snow stops, we also need a place to park. If it's not possible, we can go hunting mutant animals when the snow stops." Yufeng thought for a while and said.

"I also agree to change the villa." Chen Xi also agreed.

Considering the two lovely grandchildren, the elders of the Chen family also nodded in agreement.It was already two o'clock in the afternoon. To avoid long nights and dreams, they removed a door panel and tied it with a rope, put the food on it, and covered it tightly with a blanket.The five people dragged the food to the counseling center.

Along the way, people looked at them one after another, guessing what they were dragging?Seeing that they were approaching the counseling center, they were stopped by 10 people.

"Young man, what are you dragging?" A shy-looking man with eight-character eyebrows asked with a smile.

"It has nothing to do with you." Yufeng looked at the man coldly, and the man looked a little scared.

"Stop rambling, hand over your things." Another tall and strong man shouted roughly.Speaking of a group of people coming forward to grab something, pedestrians on the side of the road stopped to watch the excitement.The men and horses on both sides moved their hands, and in two rounds, the 10 or so men who blocked the way were beaten to the ground.Chen Rui and Gao Peng ruthlessly kicked the person who fell on the ground a few times, and dragged them to the side of the road like a dead dog, forming a pile.

The onlookers on the side of the road, seeing them so tough, dispelled their small thoughts and dispersed.

This time, the five of them arrived at the consultation center without any hindrance, found the staff to go through the exchange procedures, got their residence certificates and keys, and went back.

"Someone is following us, go to the front corner, and wait for him to come to the door." On the way back, Yufeng found someone secretly following them, probably being targeted when they were exchanging houses.

When they reached the corner, a few people stopped walking.Soon there will be a young man sneaking in.As soon as he saw several people waiting for him, he turned and ran.Chen Xi squeezed a snowball and smashed it hard, and the man fell into the snow.Li Jun stepped forward and grabbed the man by the collar and dragged him over.

"What do you want to do?" The little gangster looked at these people tremblingly and asked in a trembling voice.

"What do you want to do with us?" Chen Rui asked viciously.

"I... I didn't follow you, I don't know what you mean?"

"It seems that I have to show you some color, otherwise you won't know that the small pot is made of iron." Chen Rui and Gao Peng turned into shadow emperors, eager to pretend to be villains.The little gangster is also a gutless person, so he was scared and said everything before he even made a move.

"I said, I said, our boss sees that you still have surplus food to exchange for houses, let me follow you and find out the situation."

After the gangster confessed, they let him go. It seems that they have to be more careful in the future.

Several people went home and told about today's situation, and everyone unanimously decided to move overnight.There is no anti-theft measures here, and places with windows are easy to break into.Everyone packed up their things together, and Chen Xi and Yufeng took them into the space. After wrapping up the two children tightly, the family began to move.

When they came to the place, they saw that the surroundings of the small villa were covered with snow, and they could easily enter the courtyard from the top of the wall.In this three-storey villa, every window is equipped with a strong anti-theft cage.They took out tools to clear the snow from the door, opened the door and entered the house.Obviously no one has lived in the house for a long time, and there is dust everywhere, but fortunately, the decoration is exquisite and the furniture is complete.

Yufeng put an oven in the center of the living room, threw a few more flame stones in, and took out the water purifier.Chen Xi placed flame stones in the villa, one for heating and the other for lighting. It is already dark now.Li Jun brought a basin of snow outside the house to melt it, purified the water and put it in the basin.Mother Chen and her family members went to the second floor to clean a bedroom and make a bed. Chen Xi placed flame stones in the room, took out snacks and a laptop, and placed the babies here to watch cartoons.Chen Xi took out the cleaning tools, and the whole family worked together to clean up from the second floor.

There is only one stairwell on the third floor of this villa, connected to the stairwell is a glass greenhouse, which occupies the entire roof.Fortunately, the roof is sloped, otherwise it might have been crushed by the snow.The flowers and plants in the greenhouse were all frozen to death, and a chaise longue chair was placed in the center of the greenhouse.Ms. Chen and the ladies looking after the house were very pleasantly surprised, planning to plant something in the future.

There are three bedrooms on the second floor, a study, two bedrooms, living room, kitchen, etc. on the first floor.The family finished cleaning the first and second floors, and it was almost 10 o'clock, and they hadn't eaten yet.Everyone stopped, had a simple dinner, and went back to the room to rest.They still have a lot of things to do tomorrow. The snow in the yard and around the fence needs to be cleaned up. After the green house on the third floor is taken care of, it should be able to be turned into a greenhouse, which will be related to their future livelihood and so on.
