The drifting city of the last days

The dozen or so fishing boats, big and small, were arranged in a fan shape between the Haihou and the fishing village.On the deck of each boat stood many people with all kinds of fishing gear, ranging from teenagers to gray-haired men.Their expressions were not so much guarded as they were faintly curious.

"Who are you guys?" On the big boat in the middle, there was a lean, dark-skinned man standing at the bow. His Mandarin accent was a bit thick, but he could barely understand it.

"Passing by." Qi Liang blinked his round eyes with a pure and harmless expression. "We are from city S. We drifted into the sea after encountering a tsunami last month. Now we finally found a boat, so we thought of the direction to go back to the mainland."

"There are five mutants in total. There are four on the boat and one in the village. They are all first-class." Shao Yunfan opened his eyes and whispered to Luo Zhen beside him.Luo Zhen nodded, in case of a conflict, they would not be too passive.

"City S?" The man was stunned, "We are from Pingliang District, City D."

City d and city S live next to each other, so naturally most of them are close to the sea, but most of them focus on developing tourism, and a few places rely on fishing. Pingliang is the area where fishery is developed. The straight-line distance between Pingliang District of City D and the hotel they stayed in is only about 150 kilometers.

"No way, did you also come here after encountering the tsunami?" Qi Liang grabbed the white railing on the ship's side, smiling harmlessly to humans and animals.

"Forget it." The man sighed with emotion, "I didn't expect to meet people from City S here." Is this the same person who has fallen in the end of the world, or is it a foreign land and an old acquaintance?

It turned out that the fishing village suffered an earthquake that night, and the ground not only collapsed, but also cracks appeared in many places. The widest one was nearly two meters wide.Unexpectedly, the sea water rushed up along the cracks, and the whole village was like a plank, floating and sinking among the waves. There were originally more than forty boats in the village, but half of them were swept away by the waves that night.Fortunately, they lived on the sea for this generation, so they adapted fairly quickly. Except for the fact that the mutated animals hurt a lot of people when they first appeared, they basically didn't encounter any major troubles afterwards.The man's surname is Liang, and he is the head of this fishing village.According to him, half of the people in this village are relatives who are distant or close.

Qi Liang also introduced all his companions to Village Chief Liang, "Then you don't plan to go back to the mainland?" According to the number and volume of their fishing boats, they can bring the whole village back.

"Go back? Where are you going back?" Village Chief Liang's face was a little stagnant, and he made a gesture of throwing something with his hands, "I heard that the whole Huaguo was smashed to the ground like a mirror, and it was broken into pieces."

The people on the Haihou were all stunned, why is this statement so similar to what they guessed?Qi Liang stared round his eyes, "I heard? Who did you hear it from? Someone came from the mainland?"

Village head Liang nodded, "Yes, about two or three weeks ago." He turned his head to look at a young man beside him, and got a nod of confirmation from that person before continuing, "About two or three weeks ago , A group of people with guns passed by here, said they came from some base, and asked Xiaowei and Da Zhu if they wanted to go back to the base with them. I just heard what they said."

"Base? A base on the mainland? Can you tell me in detail? We are worried about not being able to find our way back." Qi Liang put on a distressed look, and tried his best to find out more information from Village Chief Liang.The information those people left should be of great use to them.

"Well, it's getting late. If you don't mind, you can come to the village for a meal. Let's chat while eating." Village Chief Liang said boldly.The people on the boat seemed to be about the same age as his youngest son, and they were all polite and well-bred, but they were all skinny and skinny. It is estimated that they have suffered a lot these days.Today's harvest is good, so it's not a big problem to treat these children to a meal.

Qi Liang looked at Xia An and Luo Zhen, saw them nodding, and agreed.Luo Zhen moored the Haihou and the villagers' fishing boats on the shore, and helped the fishermen carry today's trophies to the beach.What surprised Luo Zhen and the others was that although most of these fishermen were ordinary people, their trophies were quite rich, including large mutated fish and clams the size of a washbasin, alive and kicking and thicker than Shao Yunfan's arm The harvest of giant shrimps is much richer than that of mutants like them.Wu Fei and the short-haired cat couldn't take their eyes off it, their hearts were in full bloom.

"It's amazing." Lan Shan and Zhang Junjiu also looked at the villagers' dazzling harvest, and were amazed. Thanks to the professional fishermen, the mutant animals can be dealt with.

Countless tiny light spots floated in the air and passed away in a flash.Shao Yunfan looked at the evil spirit on his shoulder warningly, the spiritual energy fed to you every day is enough now, the prey of others is not allowed to inhale the spiritual energy indiscriminately!Rubbing his neck like a baby to ward off evil spirits, he is just used to it!

Shao Yunfan and Luo Zhen carried the shrimp trawl net and followed village head Liang to the front of the team.The prawns kept thumping in the net as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and they were so powerful that they splashed water all over their bodies.Shao Yunfan looked at the drowned Luo Zhen, who was also looking at him, unexpectedly, this job was far from easy as it seemed!

They had just set foot on the asphalt road in the village when a black mutated dog appeared at the intersection and rushed towards them like lightning.The dog was fat and strong, about the size of a horse, two or three times bigger than the mutant dogs they had seen before, running on the road, its hair fluttering, its aura was astonishing, and it could even feel the tremor of the ground.

Shao Yunfan's face changed with fright, and he was almost ready to let evil spirits take action, but suddenly found that the villagers next to him were still talking and laughing, not taking it seriously at all.He blinked. Could it be that the one on the island is not a mutant, but a mutant dog?

The big black dog ran up to Village Chief Liang like he was having fun, stopped quickly, and bowed his head, wagging its tail, begging for petting.

"Uncle Liang, is this yours?" Shao Yunfan was relieved to see the obedient dog, as long as he has an owner, it shouldn't hurt anyone.

"Well, Heizi is less than one year old, and he's still a puppy, so he's a bit more lively." Village head Liang touched Heigou's shiny neck, picked up a fish and threw it to it.The black dog devoured everything in three or two bites.

Everyone on the Haihou looked at the "puppy" with a height of more than one meter in awe, and waited for it to grow up, so what?No wonder the gas mutated animals in the village were all wiped out. Mice and the like probably weren't their opponents at all.

That night, everyone not only ate the long-lost rice, but also earthen pot chicken with pancakes, deep-fried shrimp, crab roe tofu, and squid stew.There are five people in Village Chief Liang's family, plus the seven members of Haihouhao, sitting at two tables.The next time I can eat such a delicious thing, I don't know how long it will be.Everyone didn't waste a grain of rice, and even the soup was mixed with rice and eaten cleanly.Mrs. Liang's wife doesn't talk much, but her cooking skills are top-notch, and she is very enthusiastic. She saw that Lan Shan and Qi Liang's clothes were buttoned off during the meal, and later she specially helped them mend them.

The short-haired cat and the mutated dog of the village head's family received the same treatment, and the dog even let it eat first, and the short-haired cat was not polite. Eat a full meal.Bixie squatted on Shao Yunfan's shoulder and flicked his tail in a boring manner, why didn't he have a part in it?

According to the memories of village head Liang and his son, those people said that after the tsunami, the entire country of Hua was now broken into many pieces, and there are still many places soaked in sea water.They stayed in one of the relatively large land areas, including the original Central China and parts of North China and East China.Due to the well-organized local army, they have established a large-scale survivor base in the local area.Those people came from the base called Donghua.

They went out to sea to find some beads, and accidentally got lost and ran into Village Chief Liang's fishing boat.Although they had invited Village Chief Liang and the others, especially the mutants in the village to join their base.But the people in the fishing village are reluctant to let go of their ancestral property, and they have no plans to go there for the time being.Those people left a map for them, so that if they change their minds in the future, they can follow the map to find the base.

"If you want to go, you can draw down the map." Village head Liang said generously, and ordered the eldest son to go to the room to get the map.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Come on!Under the shock of the huge surprise, all the members of the Haihou were overjoyed, and they couldn't help standing up and bowing to Village Chief Liang to express their gratitude.These days, confusion and anxiety often enveloped them.Although they want to go back to the mainland with a clear goal, they cannot determine the direction of the mainland, and without accurate maps and effective navigation, they sometimes feel frustrated and feel that the direction is wrong, and they can't help worrying about the worst situation, such as the whole world. The Eurasian continent was all shattered into powder, and they searched for it all their lives, but they couldn't find the real continent at all.

Everyone gathered together happily, but they couldn't help but frowned after seeing the situation on the paper, and the expressions on their faces turned from sunny to cloudy again.On the map, the entire country of Hua was torn apart by the sea, and its original shape could hardly be seen.Only four relatively large land fragments are marked on it. The largest should be the former northwest and plateau areas, which were originally sparsely populated and high in altitude; followed by the former northeast of China and part of North China; and then The piece consisting of the southwest and the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and finally the place where those people came, is drawn with thick lines on the map, the piece of East China and parts of North China.

If the data on this map is correct, then they have to choose one of these four continents as their destination, or the first destination.

"Copy it down first." Luo Zhen nodded, motioning for Shao Yunfan to join him.

"You said just now that they came to look for beads." Qi Liang keenly remembered what Village Chief Liang said just now, "What kind of beads are they looking for in the sea?" Could it be spiritual beads?

"I don't know about that." Village head Liang smiled and motioned them to drink tea. "They didn't go into details, but asked us if we saw any beads when we were catching fish. No one in the village had seen them. They just Didn't mention it again."

Sure enough, there are other people who know the existence of Lingqi beads!

Qi Liang glanced at Luo Zhen, saw him nodding, and said to Village Chief Liang, "We may have seen the kind of beads they mentioned. Some mutated fish have them in their stomachs. If mutated people eat them, their abilities will become weaker." stronger."

"Are you serious?" Village head Liang's youngest son, Xiaowei, is also one of the four mutants in the village. Hearing what Qi Liang said, he couldn't help being very interested.If we can enhance our ability to mutate, we will be able to better protect everyone when we go to sea in the future!

"Really." Shao Yunfan simply grabbed Wu Fei and came over to show Village Chief Liang and his family, "He used to be able to shoot eight fireballs in a row, but after eating the beads, he can shoot more than twenty of the same fireballs in a row. It can turn into a flaming sword."

Shao Yunfan patted Wu Fei's right hand, and Wu Fei showed it obediently.

"However, those fish with beads are very fierce, at least twice as fierce as ordinary mutant fish. If you really encounter them, you must be very careful." Shao Yunfan added.Don't complain about others, don't give up lightly, and strive to find a living space in the sea.The people in front of him reminded him of the eight characters he had seen on the Internet before, tough, brave, kind and warm.He sincerely hoped that Village Chief Liang and the people in this fishing village could continue to live a good life like this.
