RTIWTLITEOTW Chapter 8

Today, Jiang Xianchuan was again urging Shi Yi to do combat training, but his own fighting skills were clearly not suitable for Shi Yi.

Due to his lighter build and greater agility, he had always used weapons like short knives, but every time he used a wooden knife for close combat training with Shi Yi, she always seemed hesitant and clumsy with the knife in her hand.

“Shi Yi, you can’t be like this. You need to be more decisive.”

“I know, but the knife is too short, and I don’t feel safe. When I imagine you as a zombie, I always worry about getting bitten if I get too close.”

“Use this then.” Li Lingyu, seemingly out of nowhere, produced a crowbar. He tested its weight and then handed it to Shi Yi.

“This is long enough and not too heavy, suitable for you.”

Shi Yi took it and swung it a few times. It was indeed much more comfortable to use than the dagger Jiang Xianchuan had given her.

“Thanks, I feel like this is pretty good, very handy.”

“That’s great. Lingyu, you go teach her, I’m going to slack off.”

Before long, Shi Yi’s wails could be heard, “I can’t do it anymore, it’s too tiring, I need to rest for a while.”

Looking at Shi Yi sprawled on the ground, Jiang Xianchuan couldn’t help but feel a little gleeful.

Li Lingyu didn’t say anything about Shi Yi’s appearance, just stood aside quietly watching her.

“Look outside, am I seeing things? Is it snowing?”

Hearing this, Shi Yi and Li Lingyu also came over and couldn’t help but be surprised at the snowflakes falling from the sky.

“Why is it snowing? It’s only July.”

“Could it be that the climate is also affected because of the apocalypse? But snowing in July is too strange.”

Then, the few of them felt the temperature drop rapidly. They were clearly running the air conditioner indoors just now, but now they needed to turn on the heater and wrap themselves in cotton-padded jackets.

“This is too cold.”

Jiang Xianchuan immediately closed all the windows in the house and went to move the vegetables from the balcony inside.

The three of them huddled on the sofa together, blowing on the heater, each holding a hot water bottle in their hands.

After their bodies warmed up a little, Li Lingyu came to the window. In just half an hour, a thick layer of snow had accumulated outside.

“The zombies… are gone.”

“What?”

Jiang Xianchuan and Shi Yi also looked out the window, and indeed, they didn’t see a single zombie. All they saw was a vast expanse of white outside the window.

“Could it be that zombies are afraid of the cold?”

Regardless, Jiang Xianchuan still wrote this down in his notebook. If zombies were really afraid of the cold, maybe they could seize this opportunity to go out in the future if they needed to.

The weather was cold, and none of them wanted to cook, so they just casually ate some self-heating hot pot to fill their stomachs and then went to bed early.

The next day, the snow had stopped, but the temperature was still just as cold.

But there was a supply box in the open space of the residential area. They didn’t know when it had been placed there.

Jiang Xianchuan simply moved a chair and sat in front of the window, observing the outside. Of course, he wouldn’t go to get the supplies himself, but he was curious whether the other survivors in the residential area would go out.

Sure enough, after a while, a fully armed man walked out of the unit door. He was holding a baseball bat in his hand, wearing a leather jacket, and a safety helmet on his head.

He looked around and, finding no trace of zombies, waved to someone behind him.

Then three more men came out, all holding tools in their hands.

The four of them slowly approached the supply box, but suddenly the man walking at the very end stopped moving. He was desperately pulling at his leg.

“Ah!!!”

“What are you doing! Keep it down!”

The leading man looked displeased at the screaming man behind him, “Zombies! There are zombies!”

At that moment, dense masses of zombies crawled up from the snow. The men, seeing that the situation was bad, immediately turned and ran towards the unit door.

But because the snow was too thick, it limited their running speed, and they were quickly caught by the zombies.

But the man in the leather jacket was lucky enough to run to the unit door. As soon as he entered, he immediately locked the door, completely disregarding his teammates running behind him.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Xianchuan shook his head. Sure enough, in the apocalypse, people are all selfish.

Then he opened his notebook and wrote on it: [Suspected zombies will go into hibernation in low temperatures].
