The industrial area of Penglai Underground City is located in the north. Surrounding this industrial area, the underground city has built other supporting facilities.
There are many supporting facilities, including hospitals, shopping malls, residential areas and shops.
It can be said that workers working in industrial areas can get the services they want without entering the city.
This time the dungeon was attacked, the city residents adopted the principle of sheltering them nearby, and the workers were naturally sheltered in shelters in the industrial area.
As for the areas surrounding the industrial zone, most of the people sheltered in the shelters are workers or family members of factory management.
Meng Xiaolan is a worker's family member. Her husband is a pharmaceutical factory worker and has to work basically ten hours a day.
She was often the only one at home with her mother-in-law, who had limited mobility.
Since Meng Xiaolan married her husband, she has been taking care of her mother-in-law with all her heart, but even so, her mother-in-law has never given her a good look.
the reason is simple.
Meng Xiaolan is infertile.
She went to the hospital to check and found out that in her case she could only undergo in vitro fertilization, but in vitro fertilization was not something that working-class people like them could afford.
Her husband's meager income is only enough for the family's daily expenses. Although Meng Xiaolan does some handicrafts at home, it is far from being able to support the cost of IVF.
Ever since she found out she was infertile, her mother-in-law had never looked down upon her. Fortunately, her husband never left her and she had many conflicts with her mother over this matter.
But the more her husband behaves like this, the more her mother-in-law hates her as her daughter-in-law. Especially after her mother-in-law had a stroke two years ago that left her half paralyzed, her temper became worse and worse.
But even so, Meng Xiaolan still took care of her mother-in-law meticulously and worked hard without complaint. Even if she was insulted by her mother-in-law in front of her, she did not talk back, let alone say anything wrong about her mother-in-law behind her back.
Today, a giant beast invaded. She hurriedly pushed her mother-in-law to the shelter in a wheelchair, and spent the rest of the day in fear.
"Xiaolan, call Xiangyang and see how he is doing over there?" At this time, the mother-in-law in the wheelchair said with a cold face.
Meng Xiaolan looked at the woman: "Mom, we just called, there is no signal."
"It's because there's no signal or there's no call. I'm not talking about you. Xiaolan, we haven't treated you badly at home. Why don't you care about your husband at all?" the mother-in-law said angrily.
Meng Xiaolan, who had always had a good temper, finally couldn't hold it any longer at this moment.
On the way to the shelter while pushing her mother-in-law, she fell. Her mother-in-law saw it but didn't even ask a question.
After entering the shelter, she called her husband countless times, but her mother-in-law accused her of not caring about her husband.
Coupled with the invasion of giant beasts, she was frightened, and the grievances she had suffered for many years suddenly came to her heart, and her eyes turned red.
"Mom, how can you say that? It's unfair to me."
The mother-in-law sneered: "Unfair?"
"Then you and Xiang Yang divorce. Things that can't give birth to babies are not rare to our Xiang family."
Just as Meng Xiaolan was about to argue, an indescribable and indescribable strange sound suddenly entered the shelter.
It sounded like a piece of music that was out of tune and running out of tune, or like a chaotic noise played by a madman without any sense of music.
Just listening to a note made people extremely uncomfortable. After listening for a while, Meng Xiaolan actually felt a cramp in her stomach.
"What is this sound?"
"It sounds so uncomfortable. Who turned it on? At this time, please turn it off quickly."
In the shelter, people complained, but not long after, a scream suddenly sounded.
"Old Chen, what are you doing, why did you hit me?"
"I don't know, I, I can't control my body."
There seemed to be a fight, causing a little chaos.
This chaos may have been just a small ripple, but then, there were more and more 'ripples' in the shelter.
"Ah, Zhou Huan, don't scare me, why are you vomiting blood?"
"It hurts. My stomach hurts. Please help me."
"My hands, my hands won't obey you, don't, don't!"
Meng Xiaolan was stunned.
Just around her, several workers' family members were rolling on the ground holding their bellies. They kept vomiting blood, and there seemed to be fragments of internal organs in the blood.
There are also people who lose control of their bodies and suddenly attack those around them, or even themselves!
The entire shelter was in chaos in an instant. Under the chaotic and crazy music, Meng Xiaolan seemed to have seen hell.
"Xiaolan!"
Her mother-in-law's voice woke her up.
She quickly wiped the tears from her eyes, stood up and said, "Mom, let's go to the corner. It's too dangerous here."
Unexpectedly, when she arrived at her mother-in-law's side, her mother-in-law jumped up in the wheelchair and pinched Meng Xiaolan's neck tightly with a pair of chicken claw-like hands.
Meng Xiaolan never knew that this little old lady had so much power.
"no no!"
The mother-in-law saw that she was strangling her daughter-in-law's neck and shouted: "Xiaolan, run, run!"
Meng Xiaolan was stunned, not because her mother-in-law attacked her, but because she told her to run quickly.
She wants to protect herself?
is it possible?
The mother-in-law was so anxious that she cried: "Xiaolan, we Xiangyang are the ones who are sorry for you."
"Xiang Yang had someone change your test report. The person who can't give birth to a child is not you, but him!"
"You are a good boy, how could mom not know that?"
"But mom only has one son, Xiangyang, and she can't expose her own son, so she makes things difficult for you in every possible way, hoping to make you angry."
"But you are stupid, how can you tolerate this crazy old woman like me?"
"no."
"You can't die."
"I can't let you die."
The mother-in-law suddenly thought of something and opened her mouth. This seemed to be the only part she could control.
Then he glanced at Meng Xiaolan.
"Live well."
After the mother-in-law finished speaking, she stuck out her tongue and bit it hard.
The blood was hot on the tip of his tongue, and he immediately sprayed Meng Xiaolan with a look.
Meng Xiaolan opened her eyes wide.
In order not to hurt her, her mother-in-law actually bit her tongue and committed suicide!
thump.
Her mother-in-law fell to the ground, and Meng Xiaolan quickly picked her up and started crying.
Something like this.
It is appearing in other shelters, and this situation is gradually spreading to the city center.
"...This is what is happening in various shelters."
On the public communication channel, the Corps Chief of Staff's voice trembled slightly as he reported the current situation in the dungeon to Xu Yanchuan and the Dimeng team.
The situation in the dungeon is very bad now. People in the shelters are dying one after another due to the influence of the piano bug's magic.
Only cultivators can resist a little, ordinary people can't hold on for long under the crazy music of the harp bug.
"Damn it!"
Xu Yanchuan slammed his hand on the command platform and looked out of the panoramic window. His mecha was wielding its spear and attacking Yao Yuan.
But he couldn't stop it.
At this time.
Wang Meng's voice sounded on the communication channel.
"It doesn't matter."
"give it to me."
"Leave it all to me."
"I'll take care of it!"
