Zhang Yi rode a snowmobile and took Zhou Hai Mei all the way towards the Yuelu neighborhood.
He drove along the riverside, and the Heron River under the ice and snow cover also had a magnificent feeling.
However, compared to the ground, there was significantly less snow on the ice.
The Heron River was connected to the East China Sea, and the water had a large specific heat capacity, so the temperature changed more slowly.
One could even see people catching fish on the ice!
Zhang Yi looked at these landscapes and felt a hint of a rare human presence.
However, just at this moment, he suddenly had a jolt in the middle of his mind.
"Fishing people? Have they ... even adapted to this extremely cold temperature?"
Zhang Yi's heart was a bit incredulous.
During the month he lived in the Yuelu neighborhood, he had seen with his own eyes how miserable those people were living.
And in Xu Jia Town across the Heron River, those villagers had actually adapted to the low temperatures.
But think about it, it's not strange, farmers plant their fields all year round, even if the weather is cold, they still have to get up early in the morning and labor in the fields.
Their ability to adapt to the environment far exceeded that of the city dwellers who were spoiled by air conditioning and heating.
"The adaptability of humans is truly terrifying!"
"If it were me, I wouldn't know how to live without air conditioning and heating in my room in winter."
Zhang Yi let out this sentiment.
However, he didn't wait for him to lament for long, when a terrifying bark suddenly came from the ice not far in front of his side.
Zhou Haimei in front of him screamed and pointed at the river, "There's a dog!"
Zhang Yi had already seen it.
Seven or eight vicious dogs were barking madly while rushing towards them.
And behind them were pulling two simple sleds with four people standing on them.
Zhang Yi's eyes became deep.
He knew that he was in trouble again.
Not the immediate trouble, but the trouble in the future.
Originally, within his plan, the people of the city would all die out quickly in the midst of the snowstorm.
And he, as well as those few who hid in the shelters could survive until the end.
But it hadn't occurred to him that the countryside outside the city had begun to adapt to life under the cold.
These people then become a potential threat.
Like, for example, the snowmobile that had set its sights on him.
"Sit tight!"
Zhang Yi twisted the throttle fiercely and sped up, he did not want to clash with these people.
After all, if you messed with one person, what was implicated behind could be a village.
Zhang Yi sped on top, while on the river, the eight dogs were also chasing after them furiously with their tongues wagging.
After they saw Zhang Yi, their eyes were red, and the wildness in their gaze was chilling.
Dogs were originally domesticated from wolves, and they had experienced many life-and-death battles in the post-apocalyptic world, and had even eaten human flesh when they were hungry.
Dogs that had eaten human flesh had bloodshot eyes and were extremely brutal.
Zhang Yi's snowmobile was fast, but the sled on the ice was equally not slow.
Since those villagers from Xu Dong Village came over to intercept in advance, Zhang Yi was not able to avoid it.
On top of the sled, a fisherman copied the harpoon in his hand and threw it towards Zhang Yi and the others!
"F*ck!"
Zhang Yi cursed, if this harpoon had hit his arm, it would have brought down at least half a kilogram of flesh!
He hurriedly reversed the direction of the motorcycle and stopped it in place with a sharp brake.
Zhou Hai Mei didn't sit still and was unexpectedly thrown off and landed in the snow.
This famous actress was so scared that she cried out, sitting in the snow without even the courage to get up.
By this time, two sleds had blocked Zhang Yi's way.
The eight sled dogs roared madly towards Zhang Yi, and the sound was extraordinarily oozing to the ear, especially with their teeth bared and blood at the corners of their mouths.
It made people feel that these were not eight dogs, but eight hungry jackals!
Zhang Yi's scalp went numb for a while.
He was not afraid of people, but he was a bit worried when he saw these crazy dogs.
Because people can be scared, but dogs can't.
The four men on the sled came over with guys in their hands, leading the dogs.
"Leave the car and the woman, get out!"
One man held a wood knife in his hand and cursed at Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi looked at them coldly, taking in the position of each man and each dog.
Then he quickly pulled out his pistol and aimed it at the men.
"A few brothers, lend me a hand! I don't want to cause trouble, and you guys don't come over here looking for death!"
The blackened muzzle of the gun was obviously more intimidating than words.
When those people saw the gun, they all stepped back in unison.
Zhang Yi pointed his gun to the side, "Can you get out of the way?"
The four villagers from Xu Dong Village looked at each other, the hostility in the depths of their eyes unabated.
Under the End Times, their hands were all stained with human lives, and they would not be intimidated so easily.
But they also didn't want to die for nothing.
A young man with a gangly face asked, "Dude, where did you get your car and gun?"
Zhang Yi sneered, "Ancestral."
A few people were holding dogs in their hands and exchanged glances as if they were discussing whether to retreat or not.
However, after their eyes landed on the snowmobile and Zhou Haimei's face, the heavy color of greed appeared again.
The snowmobile was a top-notch mode of transportation nowadays, so much better than a dog!
As for women, they were also in great need.
As the saying goes, when you're full, you're full, they solved the food aspect of the problem, then another primal desire began to take over the brain.
There were women in the village yes, but how could that kind of village girl compare to a well-maintained star like Zhou Hai Mei?
The man with a gangly face was called Xu Xingwang, and he tucked his hand in and said to Zhang Yi, "Buddy, this is the territory of our Xu Dong Village! You can pass if you want to, we have to charge a toll."
He reached out and pointed at the snowmobile and Zhou Hai Mei.
"The car and the woman, you have to leave one behind!"
Zhang Yi didn't expect this group of people to be so wild, did they take the gun in his hand as a pose?
He frowned and asked with a cold smile, "You can't see that I have a gun in my hand?"
The four people looked at each other, although they were afraid, they did not retreat.
Which one who could survive until now and dared to come out with a dog was a good fighter?
In order to fight for food, they had fought with the next village for who knows how many times, and were bold as hell.
Another thin man wearing a felt hat pointed at Zhang Yi and cursed: ''Who the hell are you scaring! Four of us, eight dogs, how many bullets are in your gun?"
"Leave the woman and the car behind and you can be let live! Otherwise you try!"
Zhang Yi's eyes grew cold.
In his afterglow, he saw that there were still people rushing towards this side on the river.
The river here was less than a hundred meters wide, and on the opposite bank was Xu Jia Town.
If their people rushed over, they would soon surround Zhang Yi.
At that time, Zhang Yi would be able to save himself, but the crazed pack of dogs might tear Zhou Haimei apart.
He took a quick breath.
This is what you guys forced me to do!
There was no need to talk about it anymore, as a pistol slid down amongst Zhang Yi's left hand.
He suddenly struck out, firing four shots in a row with both guns aimed at the heads of the four men!
These four people didn't even manage to struggle for a moment, instantly falling to the ground with blood splatters on their heads.
And without anyone to hold them, the eight dogs roared and charged towards Zhang Yi and Zhou Hai Mei!
