How to break the target of the doomsday system

Chapter 69 Terrible Famine 【Part 1】

"Turn_Turn..Turn|"

The tractor made a series of eerie noises, from growls to whimpers, and finally died.

"It's out of gas." Qi Hongshuo scratched his head.

This tractor was given to them by Uncle Liu.Lian Xi, Ning Mou, Xie Jiayan and Qi Hongshuo all learned how to drive.As Uncle Liu said, the diesel fuel can only last as long as they enter Ewha City.However, they have nothing to be depressed about, as this place is not far from Ewha High School.

"Let's walk." Lian Xi walked forward first, with a little haste.

He couldn't help but be in a hurry.After entering Crane City, they found that the water levels of many rivers, ponds, and lakes had dropped. The further north they went, the situation became more serious. Many farmlands had terrible cracks, and both crops and weeds were dead.Along the way, they even saw a lot of corpses, all of them were starving refugees, covered in dense flies, emitting a smoky smell.

"Is Lian Xi okay?" Xie Jiayan asked Ning Mou in a low voice.

Ning Mou looked at Lian Xi's back and said in a low voice: "On the one hand, Xiaoxi is worried about her family, and on the other hand, she feels sorry for you.

"

Yu Ningshan was at a loss, "I'm sorry for us? Why?"

"We brought you to Pear Blossom City in the hope that you could live a better life, but now..." Ning Mou felt heavy.Xie Jiayan retorted, "How can you blame you? You don't want to do this either, and in the final analysis, this is our own choice. We are helpless in Haishi, so it's good to be able to come to Ewha Market."

Qi Hongshuo nodded in agreement.

Ning Mou was very pleased that the performance of the three of them was worthy of him and Lian Xi taking them all the way back to Lihua City.

"Come on."

They still entered the city from the west of the city.Compared to when we left, the outer city was even more decadent, with no one in sight, and no greenery at all.Near the end of the bridge, what appeared in front of them was a wall nearly three meters high.In the middle of the wall was a barbed wire gate, which was locked from the inside.

"Is anyone there?" Qi Hongshuo shouted loudly.

No one responded.

Standing on Banana, Ning Mou climbed over the wall and went in to open the door for them.

After a few people entered, the door was locked again.

Finally, we saw living people in the city, although there were not many of them, and their faces were all gloomy.This at least proves that Ewha City has not become a dead city.

When crossing the bridge, Lian Xi took a special look at the bridge, feeling a little bit in his heart.The river has dried up, and the silt at the bottom of the river is exposed. It is still wet now, and it will be dried up in two days at most. Only a few puddles still have water!Even so, there are still many people queuing up to fetch water under the sun at each puddle.

Two soldiers were guarding the gate of Ewha High School, and they were both emaciated.Lian Xi's heart relaxed at first, then tightened.He took a few wild apples he picked on the road and handed them to them, "Brothers, we are residents of Ewha High School, please open the door for us."

The eyes of the two soldiers lit up, and they quickly opened the door.

"We know you. You have caught game for us before. Come in."

Ning Mou stuffed them with apples, "How is our family?"

Both soldiers nodded.

"They're fine, they're under the protection of our battalion commander."

Lian Xi relaxed his tense nerves, and sent a thankful smile, "Thank you!"

Ning Mou went on to say, "I'll let Banana catch some wild game for you some other day."

The two soldiers were very happy, "It's easy to say, easy to say."

Lian Xi and Ning Mou hurried home with Qi Hongshuo, Xie Jiayan and Yu Ningshan.

Hearing the rapid knock on the door, even the family seemed to feel it.

The old lady urged Lian Jie to take a look.

Lian Jie saw Lian Xi outside through the cat's eyes, and quickly opened the door.

Lian Xi took a quick scan and found that none of the family members were missing, so he was really relieved.The family is a little thinner than when they left, but looking good.It can be seen that after he and Ning Mou left, they did not suffer much.

Lian Jie patted him and Ning Mou on the shoulders vigorously.

"It's back!"

After entering the house, Lian Xi and Ning Mou called for someone obediently.

"Dad, Mom, Grandpa, Grandma, we are back."

Zhang Huizhen took one person by the hand, and said happily: "It's good to be back, it's good to be back. Come and sit down. Who are these?" Lian Xi introduced to his family, "They are friends of Daning, and they are not doing well in Haishi. Thinking that it is a good place to be protected by troops, Daning and I brought them back. Unexpectedly, there was a drought, but it was a bad thing with good intentions.”

Lian Xi looked at Qi Hongshuo and the other three guiltily.

Ning Mou rubbed his head.

Qi Hongshuo said sternly: "Lianxi, please don't say that. The three of us are gone, and we are very happy to live here. Besides, the situation in Haishi may not be better than that in Lihuashi."

"Yeah, you're overthinking. Being so close to Brother Ning, the three of us feel very safe." Xie Jiayan said with a smile

Yu Ningshan spoke sweetly, "Seeing uncles, aunts and grandparents, we are as close as seeing our own parents and grandparents. Lianxi, don't you think you despise us?"

Even the four elders, Guangzong, Zhang Huizhen, the old man and the old lady smiled on their faces and nodded secretly in their hearts. At least these three people were not confused.

Chen Yu secretly looked at Yu Ningshan, the smile on her face froze.

In the final analysis, the road of life still has to be walked by oneself.Qi Hongshuo, Xie Jiayan and Yu Ningshan were transparent in their hearts, so they were calm and would not complain.

After the conversation was over, everyone looked at each other and smiled, exposing this problem.

"Drink water." Chen Yu got up and poured everyone a glass of water, and sat down next to Lian Jie.

Ning Mou asked about the current situation of Lihua City.

Lian Jie's expression was a bit complicated, he sighed, and said slowly: "After you left, the troops began to rebuild the city.

The first step is to distribute the seeds of vegetables and grains they brought, and arrange for people to open up wasteland and farm; the second step is to lead people to seal the main entrances of Lihua City to prevent those ferocious mutated animals from going down the mountain and threatening them. people's safety.Things are looking great, everyone feels that life is full of hope, but..."

Also from the day Lian Xi and Ning Mou left, it has never rained again, and the temperature is getting higher day by day.All the vegetables, food, weeds, and trees visible in the urban area were dead, and the mountains outside the city were also withered and yellow.The animals were too hot to go down the mountain, and it was not easy for people to catch some game, so many people starved to death.

According to Song Xing, there are no more than 2000 survivors in the entire Ewha City!

Originally, after the troops moved into the school, some quick-witted survivors handed over some food to the troops in exchange for the right to live in the school.There are many more people in the school, but now, apart from the troops, there are only three members of the Lian family, the Ma family, Chen Wei, Mr. Qin and his wife, and Mr. Zhao's family.The others partly fled and partly starved to death.

The people in the army received Ye Zheng's supplies at the beginning, and they were supposed to have no shortage of food, but most of their food was subsidized to the survivors, and they didn't have enough food for themselves.In the beginning, hares and pheasants could be caught occasionally, but when the temperature got higher, the prey could not be caught at all.The soldiers were barely alive, in poor physical and mental condition.Just last night, a soldier who had been in the army for less than two years couldn't bear the pressure and shot himself.Also because there was not enough food to feed the five people, Mr. Zhao and his wife committed suicide by jumping off the building.

The atmosphere in Ewha City is very tense, and there have been several incidents of cannibalism.Chen Wei's younger brother was taken away by other survivors when he went out to chop firewood. When they found him, only half a set of bones remained.

Lian Guangzong and Lian Jie helped find it.If the father and son were not strong enough, they would not dare to go out easily.

What he said made Lian Xi feel cold on the soles of their feet.

"One more thing," Lian Jie said with resentment on his face, "our secret warehouse was discovered by someone, and when we arrived, the door was wide open, and there was not even a single rice left inside."

"Uh..." Lian Xi was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to react.

"Those are things outside the body, as long as people are fine. Unless all the animals in the world starve to death, otherwise, we won't be short of food just by hunting." Ning Mou's voice was calm and powerful, easily soothing the hearts of Lian's family members.

Lian Guangzong rejoiced: "The three places where you and Xiaoxi store grain separately have not been found, so we don't have to worry about it in a short time."

"Okay, Xiaoxi and Xiaoning just came back, they must be tired and hungry, I'll go make them something to eat."

Zhang Huizhen was about to get up, Chen Yu helped her to sit down, and said with a smile: "Mom, you can talk with Xiaoxi and the others, I will go."

Zhang Huizhen didn't object, "Okay, I still have some flour and two mutated eggs, you go spread some egg pancakes for them, and cook a vermicelli soup."

"Understood." Chen Yu responded meekly.

Lian Xi asked about Snow White.

"Speaking of Snow White," Lian Jie said with a smile, "it is indeed a mutated hen, a fighter among hens! My dad and I take it with us every time we hunt. Not only can it catch pheasants and hares, but once it forced a The boar was scratched to death."

Zhang Huizhen was also full of praise, "Yes, it is a great contributor to our family! It is said that chickens don't like to lay eggs when the weather is hot, but it basically lays an egg every two days. Thanks to it, our family's nutrition Only then can we keep up." Fortunately, Lian Xi gave her a big bag of feed before leaving, otherwise they really didn't have any extra food to feed Snow White.

Lian Xi was slightly proud, "How can my pet be ordinary?"

Qi Hongshuo, Xie Jiayan and Yu Ningshan had heard of Snow White's name before, and they were even more curious about it.

Little Tuoluo was naked, poking his head out from behind grandma, blinking his big black eyes curiously.

Lian Xi smiled and waved at him, "Come to Uncle."

The little spinning top giggled, but couldn't move his head.

Lian Xi guessed that he hadn't seen him for a long time, and he didn't force him. Thinking that the house might lack water, he went to the kitchen and came out soon.

Lian Guangzong said: "Xiao Ning, Xiao Xi, your friends have followed you all the way, because they trust you, and you have to arrange them well. How are you going to arrange them?"

Ning Mou had already made up his mind, "The three of them will live across from each other, and Xiaoxi and I will still live in the supermarket downstairs."

"Don't be so troublesome." Qi Hongshuo said, "Just now I heard from Lian Jie that there are many empty houses in the school, the three of us can just choose one to live in."

Xie Jiayan and Yu Ningshan had the same opinion.

The three of them discussed on the way that they would not live with Lian's family when they arrived in Lihua City.They came to rely on their friends, but they couldn't completely rely on their friends, lest they cause too much trouble to Lian's family.Strictly speaking, they and Lian's family are still separated by one floor, and they barely live together, which will only make both of them uncomfortable. It's better for the three of them to form a family of their own.
