Chapter 20:The Battle of Defense and the Harsh Reality of the Snow - bound World

Can you imagine what it feels like to be drenched in cold water at minus seventy - plus degrees?

Zhang Yi took a large water pipe and sprayed water at those lackeys outside the door.

There was a temperature difference of about a hundred degrees between the inside and outside.

So the water was steaming when it flowed out, but after falling on those people, it quickly froze!

In the freezing cold, they were all wearing down jackets and sweaters.

The cold water soaked them all over, making them feel as if they had been thrown into an ice cellar.

"Damn it! It's so cold. I'm freezing to death!"

"Ahhh, stop spraying! Stop it!"

At this time, they would rather be beaten up severely than endure this freezing torture.

One by one, their lips turned purple from the cold, and some even fainted on the spot due to the extremely low temperature.

Following their instincts, they quickly ran away from Zhang Yi's door.

But in just a dozen seconds, it was enough to make them completely soaked.

They didn't even have time to escape by elevator, and their clothes had already frozen stiff.

Zhang Yi watched them run away before turning off the faucet.

He had originally planned to use the hand - held crossbow to teach these people a lesson.

However, loading the crossbow was too slow, and there was also a risk of being counter - attacked by the other party through the shooting hole.

On the contrary, this flooding with water had a better effect.

After being drenched thoroughly by Zhang Yi, those lackeys had their lips turn purple one by one.

They quickly ran back to Chen Zhenghao's home.

When Chen Zhenghao saw them come back in such a mess, he couldn't help but become furious.

"Where's that little brat? Have you caught him?"

And those underlings were hurriedly looking for quilts and sheets to keep warm.

Their clothes were all wet and had frozen into ice chips.

A dozen of them were scrambling for clothes and quilts in the room.

However, there were too many people and not enough things. A few underlings had no choice but to take off their clothes and huddle together to keep warm.

The scene was rather strange.

This made Chen Zhenghao so angry that he slapped the table hard and cursed, "Someone explain to me what the hell is going on!"

After a few underlings regained some body temperature, they shakily explained the whole story to Chen Zhenghao.

"That Zhang Yi is so despicable. He sprayed us with a water pipe. It's unbearable!"

"We don't know how thick their door is. We smashed it for a long time, but only a little paint came off."

After hearing this, Chen Zhenghao frowned deeply.

When he himself went to smash the door, he did feel that Zhang Yi's door was very thick.

It seemed that it would be difficult to force it open.

But soon, he sneered.

"It doesn't matter. Even if his home is like an iron tortoise, there will always be flaws."

"And I don't believe he can stay at home forever without coming out!"

"A few of you stay nearby and keep watch. As soon as he goes out, kill him immediately!"

Chen Zhenghao said viciously.

His underlings were all desperadoes. Hearing this, they shakily sneered one by other.

Although they were already freezing, they still had to act tough.

However, they never expected that Zhang Yi had no intention of leaving home at all.

Outside was hell, while his room was paradise.

Why would he go from paradise to hell?

...

After dealing with Chen Zhenghao and the others, Zhang Yi went back to continue playing his game.

Although he knew these guys wouldn't give up easily, they didn't have the ability to break into his home either.

As for going out?

Haha, Zhang Yi would never make this choice even if he was beaten to death!

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

Even if there was only a one - in - ten - thousand risk, he wouldn't take it.

Wasn't it nice to just comfortably hide at home?

After a while, Zhang Yi went to the floor - to - ceiling window to check the scene outside.

There were actually people with tools clearing the snow.

He seemed to see Uncle You, the security guard. This honest and warm - hearted veteran always rushed to the front whenever there was a problem.

The dozen or so people downstairs were some of the more compliant young people in the owners' group.

However, members of the neighborhood committee like Aunt Lin were nowhere to be seen.

Facing the thick snow layer two or three meters high, they were digging with great effort.

However, Zhang Yi knew that this was completely in vain.

Not to mention anything else, just digging a path from downstairs to the community entrance would take a whole day.

But so what if it was dug through?

The roads outside were also completely covered.

With such thick snow, only professional large - scale snowplows could gradually clear it.

But in the south, there were no such professional vehicles at all.

Going out had become an impossible thing.

Moreover, in the weather of minus seventy - plus degrees, they couldn't hold on for long.

The cold - proof equipment couldn't keep up, and their physical fitness couldn't adapt to such low temperatures either.

There was a risk of frostbite if they stayed outdoors continuously for half an hour.

Zhang Yi shook his head.

These honest people were really pitiful.

However, since it was their own choice, Zhang Yi didn't bother to say anything.

After all, now, everything had nothing to do with him. He just wanted to live well himself.

It was afternoon.

Zhang Yi felt a little hungry, so he took out a big meal from his mysterious space.

The meal was relatively simple, just a plate of Australian lobster, a Wellington steak, two Huangshan baked cakes, and a bottle of cola.

There were plenty of such delicious foods in his space.

Now that he stayed at home every day, Zhang Yi's daily routine had become free.

In short, he slept when he was sleepy and ate when he was hungry. There was no need to distinguish between day and night.

The heavy snow outside the window was still falling.

Zhang Yi took a moment to look at the bottom of the community unit building.

Those snow - clearing people had all gone back.

And the open space they had cleared with great effort for half a day was quickly covered by the snow again.

Probably they also realized that relying solely on their strength, they couldn't fight against nature.

Zhang Yi, wearing a long - sleeved undershirt, was lying on the sofa. The temperature inside the house was 27 degrees, comfortable and pleasant.

He turned on the TV and watched the programs on it.

Now, many TV stations across the country had stopped broadcasting directly. Only some provincial - level channels and CCTV were still on air.

Among them, there were some contents about promoting the government's work and slogans to encourage everyone.

"At this moment, our eyes are on Shengjing. The government is making overall plans and directing us to launch the final general offensive against the snow disaster!"

"It is reported that due to poor prevention and control of the snow disaster, the United States of America has already had 200 million people affected and tens of millions of people dead!"

"The development of the snow disaster in our country is within the controllable range, and everything is developing in a good direction."

"Hope everyone stays calm and don't panic. Believe in the power of the government!"

Zhang Yi shook his head.

The vastness and horror of this snow disaster were beyond human imagination.

Although the government was working hard to solve the problem, human strength was really too weak in the face of nature.
