Chapter 221 Walking Alone in the Snow
"But how did they survive such a severe snowstorm?"

"When the snowstorm came, they built an igloo with snow. The fake Liu Qinggang was an evolved human with water abilities, so he poured water on the igloo to reinforce it. Liu Qinggang was an evolved human with fire abilities, so the two of them were able to keep warm and had enough supplies to survive. Unfortunately, as soon as the snowstorm stopped, before they could continue their journey, they encountered evolved beasts that were out looking for food, and that's when the accident happened. Fortunately, the place where the accident happened was not far from the base, otherwise the fake Liu Qinggang could not find the base by himself. That's why I took the risk of taking you and Bangbang out to look for it, and we actually found the real Liu Qinggang."

"Then, we made this plan. We wanted to see how much these three people feared Liu Qinggang and muddy the waters. Unexpectedly, none of them wanted him to survive. They took direct action and framed each other, even though he was a fake."

"Where is Liu Qinggang really?"

"He probably realized that someone didn't want him alive, so he hid again."

"Did you hide it?"

Gao Jue smiled and said, "Before he returns to Liu Wanli, we must let him know who wants him dead, otherwise he will be too pitiful."

He and Zhao Shiyun discussed whether or not to kill Liu Qinggang once and for all, but they ultimately decided that the best option was to treat Liu Qinggang like a catfish and put him into the school of fish. However, before putting him in, they had to let him figure out which fish posed the greatest threat to him and which fish most wanted to bite him to death and swallow him.

The truth was that it went more smoothly than they thought. When Xiong Anquan rushed into the ward, Lin Youchang and Zhang Gang's men just started to fight. None of the three of them was as clean as the others, so Liu Qinggang saw it all. Next, as long as he knew who those two people were, he could be put in... and sent back to Liu Wanli.

At night, Xiong Anquan returned to the city defense army and never went out again.

When he learned that the soldier who informed him had been killed in the barracks, his roar penetrated half of the base and reached Gao Xun's ears.

Gao Xun scratched his ears, pretending not to hear.

The fun has begun.

On December 12, Liu Wanli hosted a banquet for the base’s top leaders.

It was called a banquet, but it was just a small family dinner, and it was held at noon because it was too cold at night.

However, he did not say what the purpose of the banquet was.

Although Zhang Gang was confused, he still took Zhao Shiyun with him.

He brought Zhao Shiyun with him because Liu Wanli admired Zhao Shiyun very much, and Zhao Shiyun was young and posed little threat to him, so he was happy to go along with the situation and be a good guy.

Three deputy base commanders and people holding important positions in the base arrived, about twenty people in total.

There were two tables in total. The food on the table was very simple. Each person had a plate with two pieces of grilled meat, a small portion of rice, a small green vegetable and two small tomatoes.

In the end times, this was already an excellent meal, but no one at the table was paying attention to the food. They were all curious about what Liu Wanli was going to do when he called them over!
Just when everyone was present, Liu Wanli pulled out Liu Qinggang, whose arm was broken: "This is my nephew Liu Qinggang."

Everyone showed pleasant surprise and congratulated them one after another: "Family reunion, congratulations!"

"My nephew is a man of good fortune, and he will surely have good fortune in the future."

"congratulations!"

……

Congratulations were heard endlessly, and Liu Wanli and his nephew accepted them all, as if they knew nothing about what had happened in the hospital before.

There was no emotion in Liu Qinggang's eyes. He observed the three deputy base commanders calmly and noticed that there was no strange expression on the faces of Zhang Gang, Lin Youchang and Xiong Anquan, only sincere blessings.

He knew that he was a thorn in their flesh, and they would not let him go if they had the chance. Likewise, he would not let them go easily.

He had only one benefactor, the Pajama Man who pulled him out of the ice and snow.

This was the clue Gao Jue had left for Liu Qinggang on purpose. Such a great favor as saving his life could not be passed on to others.

After the banquet, the base was in turmoil, but on the surface everything seemed peaceful. Soon, the third snowstorm arrived.

This snowstorm was also the largest snowstorm ever and lasted for a month.

It was already January 1th when the snowstorm completely stopped.

The daytime temperature also reached a low of minus 70 degrees Celsius.

But this is already the limit. Next, the temperature will not continue to drop, but will slowly rise until the beginning of March, when the zombies attack the city. In other words, if there are still survivors in City T who are alive and have a way to resist the severe cold, this is their last chance to escape from the city.

Once the zombies awaken in large numbers, their strong hunger will cause them to devour each other and hunt on a large scale. Almost no human can survive such a large-scale hunt. If there are control zombies, they will control the zombies to attack the survivors' base due to food shortage.

Fortunately, the controlling zombie was dead. Thinking of this, Zhao Lexi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Gao Jue, who knew what happened, said that controlling zombies are not unique. If one dies, there is no guarantee that a second one will evolve. Therefore, the base still needs to be prepared. It is best if there is no one, but if there is, there is no need to be in a panic.

Zhao Shiyun naturally agreed.

Zhao Lexi thought it made sense, but it did not conflict with what she was going to do next.

In late winter, a strange plant grows out of the snow.

This plant grows under the snow, a small plant growing close to the ground. Its leaves are only finger-long, light green, and full of vitality. It is called vitality grass.

Although the energy contained in it is not as much as the energy crystal of a fourth-level zombie, it is definitely more than the energy crystal of a third-level zombie. It is a good thing that evolved people are eager to get.

Unfortunately, this grass loves severe cold and will die once the ice and snow melt.

But they grow under the snow and are hard to find, so in the previous life, in the winter of the first year of the apocalypse, not many people knew about the evolution of vitality grass.

In this life, Zhao Lexi decided to look for it carefully. If he could find more, he might be able to reach level five.

Under the supervision of Zhao Lexi, Zhao Shiyun finally reached level four the day before the snowstorm stopped, and truly became a level four evolver. Only then did he realize that the cold winter outside could cause limited damage to a level four evolver. If he wore thicker clothes, he could walk freely in the snow at minus 70 degrees Celsius. Only then did he let Zhao Lexi go, but required her to return to the base before dark. Zhao Lexi naturally agreed.

Because the weather outside was too cold, Zhao Lexi had to act alone this time.

She went out under the pretext of visiting a friend's house, and climbed over the fence. She didn't see a single person along the way, and the surveillance cameras were completely useless.

After climbing over the wall, Zhao Lexi fell into a snowdrift.

The snowstorm had just stopped and the snow was so soft that people could not stand on it.
