Chapter 146: Displaced People

Style: Girl Author: Yuko AioiWords: 4223Update Time: 24/01/11 15:45:04
The world today is becoming more and more chaotic. Although the dynasty seems to be making progress as a whole, the evil organizations have never been eradicated. On the contrary, they are becoming more and more numerous and powerful.

And after experiencing the current events in Tianhe County and the events involving the Touch of Shadow in the forest, we still don’t know how many conspiracies and conspiracies are going on in the corners of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In addition, even the most powerful emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, the conceptual-level Sima Hui, saved the country with his own life...

Dongfang Xiaoyu also experienced what happened in Liangzhou County, and now she is experiencing the outbreak of the zombie crisis here, and the slow siege of Yangzhou who jumped out while investigating the situation in other counties, villages and towns in Liang County.

Thinking of this, she said thank you and accepted the concealment charm.

Pei Mengqing thought of Canglan, and then looked at the book "How to Pick Up Girls" in the cultivation system mall.

The original price is 200 points, and the discount plus rebate is only 120 points, which is not unacceptable.

However, he didn't know if he had thought it through, and he didn't know whether he fell in love with the other person because he saw her beauty, or what.

So after much hesitation, I still didn’t buy the book "How to Pick Up Girls".

At the same time, he was planning to go out to help arrange for the resettlement of the displaced people in Fangmei District. Looking at the late stage of soul nourishing realm with 5% progress left, he thought about it and let Xiaori, Juju and Dongfang Xiaoyu go first.

"I may have to break through the realm, don't worry, you go first." Pei Mengqing looked at the sky outside the window and said, "I guess I can join you in the evening."

After Pei Mengqing said that, she sat cross-legged, with her heart raised to the sky. She didn't care whether it was a hospital or somewhere, so she simply exchanged for another soul-nourishing pill, intending to directly hit the soul-nourishing state to perfection.

[Successful redemption, rebate plus discount, 60 points have been deducted, remaining points are 826 points, cumulative consumption is 4068 points, and there is still 57 points left before the next consumption rebate. 】

Pei Mengqing swallowed the soul nourishing pill and immediately entered a state of cultivation.

In his consciousness, he constantly examined his body and soul.

In fact, he discovered one thing, that is, his current body seemed to be no different from his previous life on earth.

This is true for a range of details including height, appearance, roughness or fineness of skin, hair texture, and more.

There is a paradox called the Ship of Theseus. The content is that if a ship is replaced by a plank, the ship is still itself, but what if half of it is replaced? Or is it the ship itself?

If you gradually replace one plank at a time, the entire ship will soon be replaced.

In this case, is this ship still the same ship?

Pei Mengqing is like this now. Although Taoists, immortal cultivators, and sorcerers don't talk about science, but a little closer to science, it means that the cells in his body have completely completed a metabolic replacement, and now they have grown back to what they were in his previous life on earth.

This is good, at least it will make him feel more comfortable, otherwise he will always feel that he has taken over other people's bodies and integrated other people's fates.

Now, even if his body is his, his soul is also his. This unity of body and soul allows him to have no grudges in his heart.

His consciousness wandered back and forth between body and soul.

The body and soul were like walls on both sides, with many connecting points gradually connecting to each other. He wandered back and forth among them, checking whether the contacts were firm and checking which places were not connected.

Since it had not been ten days yet, Canglan did not send a "conversation invitation" even though he was practicing at such a deep level.

In this way, the contacts were connected one by one, and Pei Mengqing's spirit was gradually consumed, until at a certain moment, an unspeakable dare to refuse emerged spontaneously.

Pei Mengqing slowly opened her eyes and exhaled a breath, her whole body's energy and spirit completely changed.

Finally, after such a long time, I finally reached perfection from the late stage of soul nourishing realm.

The body and soul are perfectly combined. Even if there is a sorcerer who is so charming, he cannot use that kind of magic to separate his body and soul.

Unless he was willing, not even Canglan could force him to the underground space.

He became a stronger being, a being with more self-preservation ability. The feeling that his soul and body were in harmony made him feel comfortable and wanted to laugh a few times.

But there are other patients around, so it’s not easy to disturb their rest.

It would be bad if they were treated as mentally ill and transferred to another hospital again...

Pei Mengqing breathed the air gently, feeling that she already had the strength to fight head-on with the early stage of Qixing.

Even if he encounters the mantis monster from two days ago again, if no one else helps, he might still be able to win.

Turning to look out the window, he found that it was already dark outside, but he was not sure how long it had been dark.

He got off the hospital bed, stretched his waist, got dressed, and left the "hospital" with an empty sword scabbard dangling on both sides of his waist.

After he went out, he discovered that this was the "Yucai Building" among the three teaching buildings in Qingzhu District.

The so-called hospital actually means emptying out the first and second floors, removing the tables and chairs, and then opening up the walls, leaving only the load-bearing walls, turning the first and second floors into temporary hospitals.

The cold wind of the winter night blowing on his face would not make him feel cold, it would only make him feel relaxed and energetic.

It's just that there is no sword in the scabbard, and the weight is weird.

There were no clouds at this time, and the stars and moon hung brightly in the night sky, shining brightly.

He moved around the Qingzhu District and quickly found the self-luminous Juju and Xiaori, as well as Dongfang Xiaoyu who was near them.

Under the cold wind at night, even if there is a spring lamp, the body temperature may have reached minus 30 degrees.

But even on such a cold night, there were still thousands of people walking through the streets in the dark to live temporarily in buildings arranged by the Qingzhu District campus.

Because during the cold winter when firewood was being burned, many dormitories were turned into collective dormitories, and a group of people moved in together so that they only had to burn one share of firewood.

As a result, many dormitories became vacant.

Therefore, the administrators asked the teachers and students who wanted to continue living in the collective dormitory to move to one of the ten dormitory buildings, leaving Pei Mengqing's classroom dormitory for the warlocks who planned to stay in single rooms during the winter and summer.

Then the remaining accommodation buildings were all used to house people from Fangmei District.

It's just that Tianhe County is not small, otherwise it wouldn't be able to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people with food, clothing, business transactions, etc. It would take two hours to walk from Fangmei District to Qingzhu District, and Tianhe County happens to be on both sides. The easternmost and westernmost sides.

Previously, Yanzhou University cooperated with people from the garrison camp to divide more than 30,000 refugees into four groups. Each of the first three groups had 9,000 people. These three groups went to Qingzhu District, Jinju District and Qinglan District.

The central area, which is the smallest and has the most facilities, only accommodates 3,000 people.

After the disaster, it took a long time and a lot of energy to count the victims, quickly group them, build temporary shelters and light fires to prevent the homeless people from freezing to death.

Basically these things took almost two days and two nights.

Many accidents occurred during this period. For example, when the displaced people were organized into groups, although they were closely guarded, the zombie virus still popped out somehow and infected many residents who left the gathering points. Many things happened. ACCIDENT.

Those who have mutated into zombies must be dealt with, and the families of those who have become zombies must be comforted. They must also continue to check whether anyone has been bitten, so that everyone can stay calm and not run around causing a stampede.

Basically, all the official forces that Tianhe County could mobilize were mobilized. Even the county government, which had always had little sense of presence, sent people to start organizing migration and evacuation.

But the current power in the county can only do this. It is simply impossible to reanimate the victims one by one and distribute the ashes to their respective families, or to sort out the skeletons in the area affected by the explosion and return them to those families. thing.

The only thing that could be done, and considering the contagion of the virus after death, Tianhe County could only organize people to gather the deceased together for cremation. Although it was not good, the cremation site burned for a long time, many people gathered, and it also served as a forum for other gatherings. The heating saved a lot of firewood...

The deceased agreed to be cremated, and then a cemetery was established in Fangmei District. The official collected the list of the deceased and tried to put a tombstone on each deceased.

What appeared in front of Pei Mengqing at this time were the people who had migrated from Fangmei District. More than 6,000 people had already settled in the student dormitories in Qingzhu District, and now there were more than 3,000 people left on the streets.

During this period, all the houses along the way and in the surrounding streets locked their doors, lest these guys, who they regarded as refugees, suddenly become evil-minded and organize a group to break into their houses and rob them.

They are all ordinary people. If they are robbed or the female family members are insulted, it will be unbearable.

We can't blame them for being indifferent, it's just that in this era, those who are not cautious will not survive.

Everyone wants to live, so I'm sorry. When I can within my ability and there is no risk, I can help you to satisfy my little noble sentiments.

But if there are risks, then you should fend for yourself, it has nothing to do with us.

Only the students and teachers in the university, most of whom had martial arts skills or were magicians themselves, were not afraid of the ordinary mob, so they came to help without any worries.

Small fires were lit one after another in the open spaces on the streets on both sides, and people added firewood from time to time.

In addition to being used as street lights to illuminate both sides of the street to prevent stampedes from crowds of people, they also provide heat.

These people don't know how long they have been in the cold wind and walked for such a long time. Even if people who walk for a long time will generate heat and can easily resist the cold, but they have been exposed to the cold wind for such a long time, they may still suddenly freeze. He fell to the ground frozen and could not get up again.

The small fires on both sides prevent such things from happening.

Although the size of each fire is small, placing fires along an entire street can have a certain warming effect. At least, the temperature of the entire street can rise by fifteen or six degrees.

In addition, other streets are patrolled by members of the Yanzhou University escort team.

There are not many people, about twenty or so. The strongest are at the early stage of Xuanqi level and the lowest are at the Gouling level. However, they are enough to guard the surrounding streets and prevent the homeless from malicious robbery.

The entire Qingzhu District has an order from Elder Liu. In order to take care of everyone's emotions, the word "refugee" is not allowed to be used, and only the word "displaced people" is allowed.

These people are already displaced, and although I don’t know what their psychological endurance is, I am afraid that any family that has lost their hometown, house, most of their property, and even their loved ones will not feel better.

No one wants to be called a "refugee".

Pei Mengqing walked along in the darkness for a while, watching everyone move forward silently, which reminded him of a movie he had seen a long time ago in his previous life. The content in it was also about escaping from famine.

The people fleeing the famine were connected one after another, carrying their own luggage, sometimes abandoning some due to some hardships, and walking in the freezing cold.

Pei Mengqing sighed, and at the same time she felt another kind of happiness in her heart: It would be better to be a warlock or a monk.

At least, to put it bluntly, all his wealth is just his own skills.

If you have the ability, you can get along anywhere, and you can get and earn what you want wherever you go.

But there are ordinary people in the world. At least in the eyes of the warlocks, ordinary people have no competitiveness.

In fact, warlocks in most places have a condescending mentality, and many even official or righteous people think that "the common people are just a bunch of ants."

Only in places like Yanzhou University, where everyone has advanced in thinking and understands that they are also among the common people, and no one is born a warlock, can they value and respect ordinary people.

Ordinary people basically have all their wealth in their own houses. It is not easy for ordinary people to save for decades to buy a house, and then have a stable home, a stable rice tank for storing grain, and a healthy growth of children.

In the night, the cold wind was still blowing. Pei Mengqing silently integrated into the work of guiding the people to the dormitory area. At the same time, he reached out to absorb the wooden stick and lit a torch in his hand for easy lighting.

It was not until midnight, about eleven o'clock in terms of earth time, that all the people had shelter, and no one needed to stay in the cold wind.

Pei Mengqing, Dongfang Xiaoyu and three paper cats gathered together. While going back to Pei Mengqing's dormitory, they lamented that the world is not easy.

"Have you noticed?" Xiaori suddenly said.

"What?" Pei Mengqing didn't know what Xiaori saw. Could there be some new accident?

"Their expressions are actually very sad." Xiaori said.

Pei Mengqing: "...Isn't this normal?"

Dongfang Xiaoyu also didn't understand what Xiaori meant, and said, "If I were an ordinary person and encountered what happened now, I'm afraid I would also be very sad."

In the end, it was Orange Bureau who said the key point. In this regard, it understood more than the two of them:

“If you have seen people who are actually fleeing from famine, you should know that there is no expression on the faces of those who are fleeing from famine.

“They don’t know where the way forward is, they are completely numb and desperate, so they have no expression.

"But the people in Tianhe County actually maintain a normal mentality. They know sadness."

This is actually very sad to say. Even being sad in an accident is already more gratifying than the numbness of complete despair...
