As she was deep in thought, Li Yunjia didn’t forget to observe everything going on in their surroundings.
When they were passing by an alley, she saw a low-key sign board advertising coal.
"Panpan, look over there. That sign board says they sell coal at a wholesale price. They must have had a lot of stock for them to sell them at wholesale price.
Why don’t we check it out?" Li Yunjia suggested as soon as she laid eyes on the sign board.
"I have seen it. Don’t worry Mom, Ah Zhen and I can co back tomorrow to take a look and see if we will find anything we can use for the upcoming cold.
For now, let’s stick to our plan of visiting the clothes factory first and get the materials we need." Leng Pan had also seen the sign and felt sowhat excited.
She was actually a little afraid that the extre cold would be the sa as so situations she had seen in apocalypse movies where people turn into ice sculptures within a few seconds of going outside.
That kind of cold couldn’t be restrained by staying indoors. Movies had a lot of lies and they always depict people running from the approaching cold turning everything into ice and people into sculptures as long as they were caught up with. However, for so unknown reason, this cold never seed to enter the houses.
As long as soone rushes into a building and closes the door, the cold is trapped outside.
Anyone with a working brain would know that a situation like that was impossible unless the house people run into had significant heating.
In that case, Leng Pan and her family needed a lot of fuel to burn and provide heating when the cold started.
So, whether it was the coal in that place they had found, or gasoline from gas stations, she would take her ti to collect as much as possible.
They didn’t know how long such a disaster would last and what else would happen during the course of the disaster.
Therefore, having more fuel ant better chances of survival.
The car drove directly to a clothes factory that specialized in making down jackets, fleece blankets and clothes, and also winter stockings and other clothes used to resist the cold in winter.
Just like everywhere else, the place was crawling with nurous zombies and even the outside of the factory was inaccessible.
Lu Zhen drove the truck and parked it next to Leng Pan’s car before getting out while covered from head to toe with fire.
He had also learned how to create a fire barrier that resembled the mist Leng Pan made.
Because he had also awakened the ability to control temperature and the area the heat can affect, he didn’t hurt his uncle and brother but no zombies ca near him.
The heat directed at the zombies was so strong that it could lt even the bones upon contact.
"Take up your weapons and fight. Be careful not to get scratched and no matter what happens, do not get distracted.
You have to understand that a slight distraction could an death.
So, be careful." Lu Zhen instructed while standing to the side to let his uncle and brother choose their weapons.
Unlike the day before when Lu Tao used guns, today he had to use a cold weapon of his choice.
Under the seats of the truck, Leng Pan had placed Tang swords, short knives, hamrs, and even a spear for everyone to choose from.
They couldn’t always depend on guns as ammunition was limited. But having close combat experience could be beneficial for future use.
No one knew what would happen next, so, it was better to be prepared and learn how to use different weapons.
On Leng Pan’s side, she also told her mother-in-law and aunt-in-law the sa thing.
At the back of the car, behind the back seat, there was also a variety of cold weapons to choose from.
Even though the two older won were trembling when they were checking the weapons to choose what felt more comfortable in their hands, they still knew that they had no other choice.
If they wanted to survive and not beco a burden to the children, they had to learn how to protect themselves.
Thus, after being afraid for a little while and trembling while choosing a weapon, Li Yunjia chose a Tang sword while Aunt Li chose two short swords.
She was used to helping her husband in the kitchen when they had a restaurant. Her knife skills were almost unparalleled.
Therefore, she found handling a short sword that was almost the sa as a big knife easier.
Leng Pan also felt that practicing with different weapons might have an advantage in the future, thus, she picked a different weapon she had never used before, a crossbow.
She had never shot a crossbow before, but she wanted to be able to provide long-range support to her family and allies in the future if the need ever arose.
She didn’t have a problem practicing on zombies as she could cover herself with mist while she practiced so that zombies won’t get close to her.
Lu Zhen had also picked a Mao saber and decided to practice that instead of using his superpower to fight.
Lu Tao was the sa and chose the sa weapon as his brother, no surprise there as the little guy practically worshipped his elder brother.
Uncle Li surprised everyone by picking a double bladed sword. That type of weapon was not easy to control and could potentially cause self harm.
However, looking at how confident he was, nobody said anything.
By the ti everyone had chosen their weapons, zombies were already surrounding the two cars.
The only place they avoided was where Lu Zhen was.
Just like what she had done when they went to the slaughterhouse, Leng Pan surrounded the two cars with mist and soon zombies were moving backwards.
Those with zero sense of danger who went forward were of course reduced to mist and evaporated.
Those with crystal cores left them behind.
As she walked out of the mist and left a thin layer on her body to deter any zombies that tried to sneak attacks while she was training, Leng Pan nocked the first arrow and aid at a zombie about ten ters away from her before releasing.
