Although he couldn't see, he could hear their breathing and feel their emotions changing.
He reached out and gently stroked the back of Zhou Shuwan's hand, silently expressing his comfort and care.
About two days later, the howling of the ice pellet storm outside gradually weakened and the wind became sparse.
Through a few small holes, you can see that the world outside, which was originally wrapped in snow-white, is gradually becoming clearer.
"The storm... seems to have weakened." Mu Mu was the first to break the silence.
Zhou Shuwan nodded, slowly walked to the window, and carefully removed the wooden board. It was still dark outside, but the source of the disaster could be seen - the flying ice particles were becoming less and less, and thick snow covered every corner of the island.
What is most surprising is that because the ice particles have been so thick and numerous in the past two days, a thick layer of ice has formed around the stone house, which is more than one meter high.
In the distance, they could vaguely hear the sound of shoveling ice and snow. It must be that someone had gone out to clear the ice.
"Then let's get ready and go out." Zhou Jianghai said.
"Ah."
Zhou Shuwan responded and took out the air-conditioned clothes and put them on: "Mom, you and Xiao Yu stay in the house, don't come out casually."
Mu Mu also said, "Yes, Mom, the temperature outside has dropped again, almost as cold as it was during the extreme cold. You and brother-in-law should stay home. Don't come out until Dad, sister, and I clear the thick layer of ice."
Zhong Tiyun was a little worried: "You have to be careful. Mu Mu, protect your sister."
"Yeah!" Mu Mu responded readily.
As he spoke, he turned and walked towards the toolbox.
The toolbox contained various ice-shoveling tools: shovels, picks, ice picks, and several sturdy wooden sticks.
These tools were just taken out by Zhou Shuwan from the space.
When I walked out of the door, the wind was still cold outside, and ice particles were falling sporadically, but compared with the blizzard of the previous two days, it had indeed weakened a lot.
But as soon as they took a step outside, the three were stunned by the scene before them.
In just two days, the ice storm blocked the entire doorway of the house. The tall ice layer was more than one meter thick, like an indestructible ice wall.
"This..." Zhou Jianghai looked at the ice wall in front of him and couldn't help but take a breath.
"How long will it take to shovel this?"
The ice particles flying towards you hit your body, and even if you are wearing thick cold-proof clothes, you can still feel how painful it would be if they hit you.
This heaven is really strange! It doesn't leave any way for people to survive!
Zhou Jianghai thought about it and shook his head and sighed. He took the lead in swinging the pickaxe and chiseled a gap in the ice. The thick ice made a dull "cracking" sound, and the pickaxe was deeply embedded in the ice, and broken ice splashed everywhere.
Mu Mu and Zhou Shuwan also joined the ranks of shoveling ice. The three of them cooperated well, with one person responsible for chiseling the ice and the other two responsible for cleaning up the broken ice.
The broken ice soon piled up into a mountain.
Thinking about the possible daytime weather in the future, I wonder how much higher the temperature will be!
Zhou Shuwan looked around. It was still night. Although everything around him was covered in white due to the snow and ice, no one could see his movements clearly from a distance.
She squatted down slightly, and wherever her fingers passed, the mountains of ice around her disappeared.
Zhou Jianghai and his friends saved the trouble of cleaning up the broken ice.
After shoveling for about half an hour, they managed to clear a passable path.
Zhou Jianghai wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a gasp, "The ice is too thick. It will probably take a whole day to clear it."
Zhou Shuwan was also exhausted and out of breath.
She shouted, "Mumu, help me cover."
Mu Mu looked at her movements and immediately understood what she was going to do. He was a little excited and hurried over to stand in front of her.
Zhou Jianghai is on her right.
Zhou Shuwan placed his hand on the ice surface that was more than one meter thick and tried to take it directly into the space.
