Chen Xin is just an ordinary person, an ordinary person who is no different from anyone else. He will cry, be afraid, become decadent, and despair.
The only difference may be that he is more lucky and has a system that can improve the living environment and conditions and can be used as a plug-in.
Systems bring opportunities for change, and change means a better future.
This is also the reason why Chen Xin did not have an emotional breakdown before, because the system was like a carrot hanging in front of the donkey, allowing him to continue moving forward.
But a carrot is a carrot, it is something you can see but may not be able to eat.
Perhaps in the distant future, Chen Xin will upgrade the shelter to a sufficient level and he can live a good and comfortable life, but now, like everyone else, he is still struggling in this doomsday.
The future may be wonderful and bright, and the donkey may be able to eat the carrot that has been greedy for him in the end, but along the way it has to endure the ever-present temptation of this carrot.
Why can't I stop, eat this carrot, and then hit the road
People can't be like donkeys, being hung by a carrot, right
As soon as this idea appeared in Chen Xin's mind, it burst out uncontrollably.
Relax a little, enjoy yourself, let yourself live comfortably today, why bother worrying about how you will live tomorrow? That's something that tomorrow's self only needs to worry about.
I have to say, this idea is really... too tempting.
For most ordinary people, depravity and enjoyment are too exciting and too easy to obtain.
Under the heavy pressure of life, it is too hard to strengthen one's will, live a simple life, and work hard every day.
Compared with the enjoyment and indulgence of living and drinking, it is really difficult for people to stick to their beliefs.
The willpower required is not something that everyone or most people possess, not to mention that Chen Xin himself is not an ascetic person.
When thoughts arise, they grow like weeds and cannot be suppressed.
Chen Xin finally understood why among the seven deadly sins in Christian teachings, laziness ranks second.
Because for a person, laziness is the most difficult and easiest emotion for him to resist.
Thinking that he had been working hard to survive in the past six months and had endless things to do every day, Chen Xin suddenly felt that it would be okay to give himself a day off.
Forget it, just indulge today.
Chen Xin gave up the struggle and decided to give himself a day off today.
Anyway, it will be the same thing tomorrow, so why work so hard today
To hell with work! I just want to play games today!
Taking out the Coke from the storage room that he had been reluctant to drink, Chen Xin couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If there were potato chips at this time, drinking Coke and eating potato chips would be a hearty game with friends. Gunfight games simply couldn’t be better.
It's a pity that now there is only Coke, no potato chips, and the gun battle game can only be played in a boring single-player mode.
But what the heck! There are always some games in this world that are worth playing ten or twenty times, or even a hundred times without getting bored!
Besides, isn’t gun game just about enjoying the joy of firing bullets

"Sister Lan, how long will it take to arrive?" In the truck, the young special police officer who came with Qin Lan to deliver the goods for the first time looked at the darkness outside the car window and asked Qin Lan uncontrollably.
Due to the deterioration of the environment after the snowstorm, the SWAT team did not trust Qin Lan to drive alone, so they specially sent an additional person to avoid any dangers or difficulties on the road, which Qin Lan could not handle alone.
However, there were no problems along the way. Apart from the snow making the road a little difficult to walk, there were no difficulties.
"We're here, A Xin lives on the mountain in front of us." Qin Lan looked up at the road ahead and answered affirmatively. At the same time, she also glanced at the young special police officer driving next to her and smiled at him: "Why, just Does it feel like it’s too far after driving this far?”
"Not really, it's just..." The young special police officer organized his words, but he didn't know what to say, and he suddenly seemed anxious.
"Look ahead and pay attention while driving." Qin Lan reminded him, but she also understood his emotions: "Driving under such road conditions, it is easy to feel that you have not arrived yet after driving for a long time, but don't worry, just When we get there, turn the corner and drive up the mountain. ”
"Mountain? I understand." According to Qin Lan's directions, the young special police officer drove up slowly along the vaguely identifiable mountain road.
This was also the reason why he felt that he had been driving for a long time. In this icy, snowy and dark environment, they could only move forward slowly, and the road conditions did not support him to increase the speed.
Fortunately, Qin Lan said he was almost there when he said he was almost there. He drove less than 500 meters up the mountain when he saw an iron door half-buried in the wind and snow in the light of the headlights.
"Is this it?" The young special police officer looked at the door that was almost buried in the snow. While confirming with Qin Lan beside him, he also lamented that this place was indeed inconspicuous.
If you don't know the location and have Qin Lan who has been here to guide you, it will not be easy to find the place accurately, especially when there is snow everywhere and it is pitch dark.
"That's it. I'll ask him to open the door first." Qin Lan nodded and had no intention of getting out of the car. Instead, he took out the shortwave radio and started calling Chen Xin.
Qin Lan's call was answered quickly, but what made her feel a little strange was that Chen Xin's voice on the radio sounded a little different from usual.
However, Qin Lan didn't delve into it. After all, in this kind of weather and environment, Chen Xin might be feeling unwell or something else.
She didn't have to wait long, and soon the door half buried in the snow opened.
A ray of light shone through the crack in the door. Qin Lan and the young special police officer saw the door open, and then they each put on protective masks and got out of the car.
"A Xin, I brought you what you asked for, but there are a lot of things. I only brought a third of them today, a total of eight outdoor air conditioners." Qin Lan greeted Chen Xin and introduced them. Got what she brought here today.
However, Qin Lan stretched out her head and glanced at the door behind Chen Xin, which was only open a crack, and asked with some worry: "Axin, is your door blocked by snow? Do you want us to help clean it up?"
"I just cleaned it up yesterday. It seems that it was blocked again last night. It would be great if you could help clean it up." Chen Xin nodded quickly. Although he planned to give himself a holiday today, everything has already been done at the door. He couldn't really ignore it and be lazy. (End of chapter)
