Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Zheng Huaqiang led the rest of the workers back to their site, two more workers had inhaled a lot of smoke. When they returned to the construction site, they fainted and never woke up again.

On this trip, he had actually lost nine of his workers!

Zheng Huaqiang slammed the table and took a bite of the frozen flatbread. “Damn it, what the hell is this? He actually killed so many of our brothers!”

They had never suffered such a loss in such a long time! Regardless of whether it was before or after the heavy snow!

Previously, they had relied on Fatty Wang’s bombs to rob the supplies of many residents in the community. This area was full of rich people, and everyone had quite a lot of things in their homes. They had snatched all kinds of things and piled them up in the shed built at their construction site.

“This is the first time we came back empty-handed. No, we have to do it again tomorrow!”

Other than the videos of Ye Xingchen, Zheng Huaqiang also saw many other people’s photos. They were all photos taken by the owners after they robbed Zhang Yi’s house.

“This is crazy. I don’t know what that lousy house is made of. Even Fatty Wang’s bomb didn’t work, and he died there.”

Fatty Wang was the only one in this group who knew how to make bombs. With Fatty Wang dead, it would be difficult for them to snatch things again.

“If we can’t snatch that guy’s, we’ll go snatch his neighbor’s tomorrow. 1 don’t believe that every household in their neighborhood can be so sturdy!”

That night, only Ye Xingchen slept soundly in the entire neighborhood. The others didn’t even dare to close their eyes.

After a night of rest, Zheng Huaqiang brought the group of people over.

This time, they didn’t dig in the snow. Instead, they walked through the main entrance openly.

Wooden planks were laid out in front. Zheng Huaqiang stepped on them to steady the snow. He then took the wooden planks from behind and laid them in front.

In the morning, Zheng Huaqiang and the others had already robbed three households of their supplies.

Although they did not have bombs, they still had axes and hammers. It was more than enough to break a few small iron gates.

“Damn it! Some people came to my house early in the morning to snatch things! Heavens! Please save us! All our food has been taken away! How are we supposed to live like this!”

“Help! Who was that? Is it the group of people from last night? Didn’t they say that they had chased them away? Why are they here today? There’s so many houses here. Why am I so unlucky?”

“Oh my god, they’ve already snatched stuff from you? Then 1 have to hurry up and lock the doors and windows.”

Ye Xingchen held his toothbrush in his mouth as he looked at the crying and wailing in the group. He was still waiting, waiting for these people to take the initiative to beg him.

Another two days passed. Zheng Huaqiang and his group had been here for three consecutive days. They killed several families one after another and robbed more than ten families of their supplies.

“Help, why do they come every day? They’re making people panic.”

“I think they killed someone. 1 saw them coming out of Uncle Kang’s house from upstairs.”

“They killed them, they killed them. 1 think they killed a lot of people!”

“Oh my god, we finally had two comfortable days. Why is there a group of bandits again?”

At this moment, someone finally remembered Ye Xingchen.

“Where’s Brother Xingchen? How’s Brother Xingchen’s family?”

“That’s right. Didn’t Xingchen say that he chased them away? Why are they back?”

“They couldn’t have been lured here by Ye Xingchen, right? To kill us?”

“How can you say that?! Our supplies were all given by Little Ye!”

“What does it have to do with Ye Xingchen? Didn’t we fight for these things ourselves? He didn’t put in much effort! Maybe he found these people and wanted to snatch the food back from us!”

Ye Xingchen pursed his lips when he saw the numerous mentions in the group. At this moment, Zhao Hao sent another private message.

“Little Ye, you have to be more careful these few days. That Brother Qiangzi seems to be harder to deal with than Zhang Yi and the others. Do you need my help?”

“Yes, Brother Zhao, 1 do have a favor to ask of you.”

Ye Xingchen’s actions had made everyone quite dissatisfied with him. It was not feasible for him to win them over and unite them against the outside world. After all, everyone coveted his things and no one believed him.

Since it was inconvenient for him to show up, he could only let someone he trusted show up. It just so happened that Zhao Hao’s image had always been very good.

“Little Ye, tell me, as long as 1 can help you, 1 will definitely help you!”

“As you can see, there are already outsiders invading. Fighting alone can’t stop the invasion of a group of people. In that case, why don’t we all join forces and fight together?”

“But Big Brother Zhao, you know that no one believes me and doesn’t listen to me. I need someone to carry out my plan for me.”

Zhao Hao was not a fool. He naturally understood the meaning behind Ye Xingchen’s words.

“I understand, Little Ye. You want me to be the person on the surface, right? You want me to come out and unite everyone to deal with the outside world?”

“That’s right. I trust you, Big Brother Zhao.”

Some people in the group chat had already started to insult Ye Xingchen. They all thought that Ye Xingchen had deliberately lured these people here to take revenge on them for smashing his door.

“What should we do? Are we just going to wait for death at home?”

“When will this heavy snow end? It can’t be that it won’t stop, right? The heavens are not giving us a way out!”

At this moment, Zhao Hao stood out.

“Everyone, don’t panic. 1 know those people at the construction site next door. They only have 20 to 30 people in their entire construction team. There are only about 20 people left now. As long as we unite against the enemy, they can’t do anything to us!”

Zhao Hao, who had not appeared for a long time, instantly ignited everyone’s hope.

“Uncle Zhao, you’re not dead yet? That’s great!”

“Yes, yes. We thought you were dead after not seeing you speak for so long!”

“Brother Zhao, are you okay? We all miss you!”

“That’s right! Brother Zhao, tell us what to do! We’ll listen to you!”

“Uncle Zhao, tell me! We will definitely support you!”

Ye Xingchen indeed did not find the wrong person. Although they had kicked Zhao Hao out of the group last time, in their eyes, Zhao Hao was indeed an honest and reliable man.

Moreover, he was a soldier! He was very good at fighting!

Zhao Hao looked at everyone’s replies and smiled. He finally had something to help Little Ye with!

“What we need now is for everyone to unite as one! Unite against the enemy! 1 will also do my best to help everyone!”
