Chapter 315 Rain disaster, rain thief

Cao Jianbin's sigh was not wrong, this rain came so strangely.

Just like the inexplicable drought a few months ago, the rain came without any warning, and the rain fell in a surprisingly wide area, almost covering the entire wasteland.

If anyone could look down from the top of the planet, they would see that the rusty yellow planet was now covered by a pale green cloud.

At first, people were full of joy about the rain, especially when they discovered that the rain was comparable to third-level purified water. That joy turned into crazy excitement.

During drought, water is more expensive than oil. Even if the drought has passed for so long, groundwater will reappear, but which territory can survive the drought, which one is easy to get along with?

Everyone wants to earn back the resources lost in Hope City from the water, so although there are many territories selling water, the price of water has not yet dropped.

In order to drink the salty bitter water, the people in the territory have to work hard for the territory. The worst is the refugees. If they want to avoid drinking the dangerous radiation water, they must be as thirsty as the group. The radiated beast fights,

The loser becomes a corpse, and the winner eats all meat and water.

But now there is a sudden heavy rain, so that those territories that sell water are suddenly deserted, and everyone frantically takes all kinds of containers to catch water, some with clay pots and jars, some with wooden troughs and wooden bowls , Some people even filled their urinals with rainwater.

This is not an exaggeration at all, the rain in the wasteland always comes and goes faster, and the amount of water is as touching as flying mosquitoes, and sometimes it is re-baked back to the clouds by the hot surface before it even hits the ground.

Such a heavy rainfall this time is almost unheard of and unseen by people of this generation. Naturally, they tried their best to store water. Who knows whether the rain will disappear in the next second?

After all, no one knows how much God's urine is.

But soon, they found themselves doing a ridiculous thing.

The rain seemed to have no end. It fell day and night, and the torrential rain was like a bursting fire hydrant. The falling raindrops could hurt people's faces.

They finally lived a happy life with water to drink every day, and even a bath every day, but they couldn't be happy at all.

In addition to drought, there are naturally floods.

People's skin turns pale from soaking in the water, so how can those crops withstand it?
Since Lin Guiyao and the others were arrested, it has been raining for two full months!
Even the dry ground has absorbed the rainwater, not only has it become muddy, but some low-lying places have accumulated rainwater, flooding into small fishponds without fish.

Naturally, those delicate crops couldn't resist. They were used to drying out, but they had no resistance to stagnant water.

When the gaps in the soil are full of water and there is no room for air, a large amount of harmful substances such as ethanol are continuously produced in the roots of plants, which cannot be resolved.

Eventually, all crops stop growing, their roots rot, and they die.

The crops couldn't bear it, and neither could the plants in the wild. They just persisted for a while, and dead branches and rotten leaves floating with the floating water can be seen everywhere.

So after the ecstasy, people fell into endless fear.

Although there are few crops that can withstand drought, at least they can be found, but where can we find crops that can withstand floods?

It is not certain whether there is such a plant in this world accustomed to drought!

Without plants, what would people eat?eat animals?What does that animal eat?
Without plants, the largest producer in nature, animals will also become extinct.

This is a law of nature, but also a punishment from God.

Only then did people realize that the rain disaster was actually more terrible than the drought, so the props for praying for rain were removed one after another, and the magic sticks that prayed for rain were also stoned to death and sacrificed to the sky. A group of sacrifices to stop the rain mounted their horses one after another.

The same dance god, the same sacrifice, and different prayers.

People have fallen into extreme panic. As long as the rain lasts longer, even if the rain stops by then, all the plants on the planet will be drowned.

Therefore, under this rain disaster, some people who felt hopeless went crazy. They felt that since extinction is coming, how can they not be worthy of their troubled life if they don't go on a horse?
So the former gangsters became rain thieves one after another.

Rain thief is another name that people call these powerful people who wantonly destroy and plunder during the rain disaster.

But whether you are a lord of a place or a small refugee, you may become a rain thief.

Maybe it was waking up in the morning, and when they opened their eyes and found that it was still raining, they went crazy.

Sleep with you Mapi, come out with me Hi!

If looting is still an "effort" for one's own survival, those who kill and destroy for no reason are purely to vent their inner evil thoughts.

However, there are many such people, and even the harmonious City of Hope cannot avoid it.

City of Hope, Inner City, Conference Hall.

Gui Xingchao sat high on a new low table next to the main table, which was a side table specially ordered by him.

As the deputy of Hope City, he has always maintained respect for Lin Guiyao, even though he has been gone for nearly four months, and the half-year period they agreed on will soon come.

As long as Lin Guiyao has not come back by then, it means that he is already in danger, and the position of City Lord of Hope City is probably his.

But Wang Bing, Chen Elong, and others sitting below all knew that Gui Xingchao, the military division, had no such intentions at all.

As Lin Guiyao's confidantes, they already understood Lin Guiyao's talent in knowing and employing people, and those villagers have confirmed this.

Anyone who was designated as a villager by Lin Guiyao, who would not be able to shed blood for Hope City?
Not to mention the group of them who have entered the highest power class in Hope City.

Gui Xingchao flipped through the cases on last week's crime list and gently threw them aside.

No matter how strict their security regulations were, they still failed to stop the rain thieves from breeding in this desperate torrential rain. Last week, they had executed nearly a hundred people either publicly or secretly.

The public ones are all insignificant little minions and some little bosses of City of Hope, while the secret ones are some spies involved with other forces.

Under the circumstances of this natural disaster, those forces who hate Hope City are naturally unwilling to give up, and want to take advantage of the chaos to mess with ghosts, but they still don't understand how tightly controlled the Hope City is.

Of course there were fish that slipped through the net, but there were more people who disappeared suddenly. Returning to Xingchao would not execute these people publicly, but sent them back their corpses that had been "processed" in the middle of the night.

I believe they will know what they mean.

But external troubles can still be suppressed, but internal troubles are not so easy to solve.
