A group of people came on foot from the south, all of them were quite bloated, walking on the road against the wind and snow, their steps were slow and difficult, but they still kept walking forward desperately.
Zhou Lin looked at the snow-covered and deserted streets, his eyes were dead silent without any ups and downs of emotion, a person behind him stepped forward, his voice was a little hoarse: "Either they are all dead, or they are hiding there to avoid the cold."
But obviously it is the latter, a town is dead, unless there is some contagious disease here.
Zhou Lin nodded: "Find a place, we will stay here for the time being, the wind and snow are too heavy, we can't go any further"
In the end, the place they chose to stay was in the empty army that had just left.The room was completely cold and pitch black. Seeing many beds side by side and the stove that had been burned to ashes, Hu Wei pursed his lips: "Obviously someone has stayed here, and it looks like they just left. How long does it look like"
Zhou Lin nodded and asked everyone to come in and settle down first. This place is obviously a training ground or something. This big room is enough to accommodate a hundred of them. Now there is no need for much space. It is better if people are crowded together. warmth.The sky has completely darkened, so we can only settle down first.
"Each find a place to rest, and then check what else is available, and see how the weather will be tomorrow. If it doesn't continue to get worse, go to the town center to have a look."
A group of people just settled down in the army, and a dozen people went to the next room to tidy up, and then carefully placed the things in their arms.
These fungus packs were all stolen from the base with all their might, and this was also related to their rations in the future. If there was a slight mistake, it would be their death.Fortunately, it was stuck in my arms all the way, and it didn't freeze.As long as you settle down here, you can harvest in a few days.
Hu Wei came over to check and saw that they were all busy, so he approached the fungus bag with small white heads and said, "Can it survive? It's such a cold day"
A dark and skinny guy chuckled: "Yes, we can collect it in a few days. We just need to exchange it for food, and we won't starve to death."
"It's best, I don't know how many people are still alive in their town"
"This town doesn't seem small, and there should be quite a lot of people. I just don't know if it's the same as ours where there is a shortage of food. How much salt is there? If it doesn't work, just use salt instead."
"There are still some, but there are only so many left, so don't use them unless you have to. I hope we won't be as short of food as we are!"
Although Hu Wei said so, he was not so optimistic in his heart. The most he saw along the way was death, either starved to death or frozen to death, and even a group of people sat around, lit a fire, and burned themselves alive die.
Those who died had relieved smiles on their faces. It was really hard to imagine what kind of despair it would take to make people face death with such ease and calmness.
This kind of thing is not uncommon. Those who were killed, committed suicide, and for various reasons, slowly disappeared from this world. There are countless.The entire country has been completely disintegrated by the disaster, and what will happen in the future is beyond anyone's imagination.It's hard to say if there's even a future.
Hu Wei didn't understand, it's so painful to live, but it's over after death, once and for all.But every time I want to kill myself, I feel nostalgic for living.He is a coward, not daring to die, so he has to desperately live, although living requires greater courage.
I checked all the rooms in the entire army, even though I knew there was nothing left, but when I found nothing, I was still a little disappointed.
There were several thunderstorms in the sky, Zhou Lin knew that the blizzard was coming again.Except for the few people guarding the mushrooms who stayed in another house, everyone else went to the big house.Everyone huddled together, trying to keep themselves awake.It was another difficult night, the past is gone, if you can't make it through, it's just a handful of loess.
Sure enough, as the black boy said, within a few days, the mushrooms will grow.This thing is so long, as long as the environment is enough, a large piece can be posted at once.With the harvest, almost everyone's eyes shone with joy.As long as these mushrooms are sold, they can be exchanged for food that can fill their stomachs.
There were indeed quite a few people in the town who were sheltering from the cold together. Zhou Lin led more than [-] people to sell mushrooms. He knew that there were people in the house, but after shouting for a long time, no one opened the door, so he had to go to another place.
They can also understand how defensive they are at this time, otherwise they don't know how they died, who wants to die?All want to live.Even if life is worse than death, we must live carefully.
After walking for a long time, my whole body was frozen. Fortunately, someone finally opened the door to check whether it was really a mushroom.
Mu Bai had a hard time this winter. When Lei Xiao greeted him at the beginning, even though he was prepared, when the cold wave really hit, he was still caught off guard.Because I never thought it would be so cold, and I have never felt such a low temperature beyond cognition.
Fortunately, their family is quite rich, at worst, they can get through this winter and start all over again.
Nan Tian looked at a group of strange faces carrying burdens, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at them for a moment: "Aren't you from the town? Where did you come from?"
Zhou Lin looks rather simple and honest. Although he looks tall and strong, he doesn't feel so dangerous.Hearing the question, he just grinned: "From the south, do you want mushrooms? One catty of rice and two catties of mushrooms."
Nan Tian was taken aback. When they went to the south to exchange, one catty of mushrooms could be exchanged for two catties of salt. Isn't that too cheap?
Mu Bai heard the voice inside, so he came out to check the situation.This mushroom was different from the one they had exchanged in the dungeon before, but it was actually the same. It was just that it was so cheap, which surprised him.
"He's from the south, why go north in winter, isn't it warmer there?"
Zhou Lin shook his head: "It's also snowing heavily. It's just as cold as it is here, but it's not easy. A lot of bases, large and small, have been destroyed, and food is in short supply. There is really no choice but to go north."
Mu Bai frowned: "The base was destroyed? Is it the Xinmi riot?"
Zhou Lin nodded, and seemed reluctant to say more: "Do you want mushrooms?"
Mu Bai glanced at the burden they were carrying, and motioned inside: "Come in, it's cold outside."
Zhou Lin hesitated for a while, then shook his head and refused: "Just change it at the door, how much do you want, we will wait at the door."
Mu Bai snorted: "Why, are you afraid that we will hack your things?" After speaking, he turned and went into the house, while Nan Tian went outside, and soon a group of people came out of the house, each with weapons in their hands.
Zhou Lin and Hu Wei's heart trembled suddenly. It seemed that they were really in big trouble this time.The people who came out for the exchange behind him also turned pale.Zhou Lin glanced at them, and said to Nan Tian, "I'll take the burden and go in to exchange with you. Can they stay outside?"
Nan Tian rolled his eyes, they don't eat people, but they just want to ask some questions in detail: "Do whatever you want, hurry up and get someone, it's so cold, it's like we can eat you! "
Zhou Lin motioned to Hu Wei to let them stay outside.I would rather be cold than go in together, who knows what is waiting for them inside.
It was a big room, and it was full of people, most of them were men, only a few women, gathered in a corner, seemed to be cooking.The house is not too dark, there are oil fruit lighting everywhere, and there are four large stoves to keep the temperature in the house, which is like a paradise compared to the outside.
Mu Bai was sitting on the sofa at the side, covered with a lot of leather and a quilt, where Mu Bai leaned against, his body was also covered a lot.
After Zhou Lin came in carrying the mushrooms, his heart sank when he saw the scene in the house. They were all young and strong men. This group of people might be a certain force in this town.But they were the ones who bumped into them foolishly.Zhou Lin smiled wryly in his heart, is this a self-inflicted trap?
Mu Bai held a cup of steaming water and drank slowly, looked at the person who was uneasy but pretended to be very calm after he came in, a little funny: "Sit down, my name is Mu Bai, I am in charge of this area, So if you want to sell things in the town, I don’t care about other places, and when you get to my territory, you have to follow my rules.”
Zhou Lincheng nodded apprehensively: "I'm sorry we just came here, and we don't understand the rules here. Say it, and we'll do it."
Mu Bai smiled and nodded: "You are very good, don't worry, we are not vicious people, we can't get out even in a snowstorm, the news is very closed, please tell me what's going on outside."
Although Mu Bai seems to be easy to talk, he has been very friendly since the beginning, except of course that it is not very pleasant when people take out weapons.But even so, his defense against Mu Bai is still very heavy.Sometimes people who laugh are more cruel when they kill people.
He told them about the situation along the way, as well as what happened in the southern city, and almost explained everything he knew.
Mu Bai pondered for a moment and didn't speak, the atmosphere in the room was a bit oppressive, Zhou Lin even felt that the air around him was frozen.It was obviously still dying of cold, but a thin layer of sweat broke out from the nervousness on his forehead.
"Where do you live now?"
Zhou Lin clenched the burden in his hand a little nervously: "I live in a training camp similar to the suburbs."
Mu Bai frowned: "Training camp? Cheng Hui took you in?"
Zhou Lin's eyes were full of confusion: "There is no one in the training camp, we only went in to live in it because it was empty."
nobody?How could there be no one? The hundreds of people in the army wouldn't all freeze to death, right?
"That's where the soldiers stationed in the town live. I don't care where you live. When those soldiers come back, you should be careful. Besides, these mushrooms are very fresh, and you cultivated them yourself?"
This kind of thing cannot be denied, anyone with eyes can see it: "Yes, we cultivated it ourselves"
Seeing his flustered look, Mubai couldn't help laughing: "What are you afraid of? Fungus packs are not a rare thing, it's just that we are too lazy to cultivate them. In this way, you don't have to work so hard to carry the burden." Come to sell, we also charge the price of one catty of rice and two catties of mushrooms, but you are not allowed to sell to others except us, no matter whether it is loose sale or contract sale."
When Zhou Lin went out, he still couldn't believe it. He didn't have to brave the wind and snow to sell it everywhere, but the price hadn't been lowered yet.Even he was able to come out alive, which was beyond the expectations of the people waiting outside, especially when they saw the food in their hands.
I thought I was going to lose everything, but unexpectedly, things turned around.If we can continue to trade peacefully in this way, even if the soldiers of the army come back and they have to change places, they can still accumulate a lot of food.Maybe, you can settle down in this town.
Zhou Lin looked at the snow-covered and deserted streets, his eyes were dead silent without any ups and downs of emotion, a person behind him stepped forward, his voice was a little hoarse: "Either they are all dead, or they are hiding there to avoid the cold."
