Chapter 756: All Kinds of People, the Resistance of the Little People!
The east coast of the New World, the territory of Dragon and Phoenix.
The scorching and poisonous sunlight at noon, with the scorching sun rising across the sky, brought a wave of heat to the entire land.
On the dry and barren black-brown surface, only some shady places can see yellow-green plants lying tightly on the ground.
In Longyin Town, the only town in the territory.
Low and dilapidated houses stand one after another.
Skinny refugees wearing straw hats can be seen everywhere, walking among them, carrying building materials from unknown sources to the designated location.
However, the Dragon and Phoenix defense team members standing on both sides of the street with loaded guns and ammunition could lazily lean against the wall in the shade.
Occasionally, when they see one or two refugees hesitating, they will impatiently step forward, open their mouths and curse.
"Damn it, the dragon lord is not only responsible for your daily fixed meals, but also helps you rebuild your houses. As a result, you people don't know how to be grateful and work hard, and are lazy here."
"It's been eight years in the wasteland. I really don't know how people like you managed to survive until now."
The weather is dry.
Being insulted like this, most people will feel a hint of impulsive anger.
But as soon as his eyes turned to the guns carried by the defense team members, a basin of cold water completely extinguished the anger that had just risen.
"Why don't you get out of here?"
Seeing some of the sluggish crowd still standing there, the arrogant defense team members smiled ferociously.
He immediately stepped forward and kicked him to the ground with a few big feet.
Unlike young people like Hou Yong, several people were already suffering from heat stroke after being kicked, and now it was even worse.
After falling to the ground, they tried hard to stand up, but they could only watch helplessly as the pace nearby quickened, leaving them behind.
"Do I want to die?"
Ning Chao lay on the ground, took a deep breath, and a flash of regret suddenly flashed through his mind.
Just a few days ago.
Ge Dabao, who was in the construction team with him, also ran over and told him to leave the Dragon Phoenix territory as soon as possible, otherwise there would definitely be disaster.
At that time, Ning Chao was still a little disdainful. Although he agreed with his mouth, he didn't take it seriously at all.
He came to the New World three years ago in the wasteland. When he came here, he was an orphan and his parents were dead.
His ability to survive until now depends on his ability to adapt to the situation and recognize the situation clearly.
Judging from past experience, although the Dragon Phoenix Territory suffered heavy losses this time, it has not reached its end.
Escape, where can you escape to?
It's nothing more than changing to a similar territory and starting from scratch.
Therefore, even if the arrogant defense team robbed the family's food reserves, Ning Chao still persisted in his thoughts.
Only this time, luck was not on his side.
His experience was misjudged, and his life seemed to be coming to an end.
Under the scorching sun of 40 degrees, if no one saves him, he will stay in the sun for about ten minutes.
Tomorrow, the mass grave outside Longyin Town will be Ning Chao's final resting place.
"Please, please, help me!"
The strong desire to survive and the adrenaline secreted could not give even a trace of strength to the dry body.
Two or three minutes passed, and Ning Chao's consciousness became increasingly blurred, reaching the edge of coma.
But it was at this time.
The moment he was about to fall to the bottom of despair, a pair of rough hands fell on his collar and lifted him up from the ground.
The next moment, the sweet well water entered his throat.
Although the amount was not much, it greatly replenished his slack energy and made him sober.
"Thank you"
"Be patient, I'll take you to a shady place to rest."
Being held by big hands, Ning Chao didn't dare to exert any force, and simply relaxed his body's guard and completely collapsed.
Not long after.
Walking through the street where I just lay down, I finally came to a place shaded by a wall that was almost crowded with refugees.
The man found his position and put him down.
At this time, Ning Chao finally saw the face of his "savior".
Rough, dark, and with a few pieces of dead skin that have been exposed to high temperatures.
The man cannot be said to be handsome, but he is
"Ge Ge Dabao?"
Seeing the middle-aged man in front of him who looked very similar to Ge Dabao, Ning Chao couldn't help but make a sound.
"Hey, do you know Dabao?"
Ge Jian'an exclaimed, put down the ebony he was carrying on his shoulders, and sat down.
"Well, Dabao asked me to go out of the city to seek refuge before, but I didn't listen to him."
"It's okay, just lie down and talk less for now. Dabao will come over later."
Seeing Ning Chao's weak appearance, Ge Jianan took off the water bottle from his waist and shook it. He first drank a large sip himself, and then handed over all the remaining water.
In an instant, four or five eyes focused on him.
But when he saw Ge Jianan's strong physique, the owner of his gaze could only secretly lick his chapped lips.
Since the disaster ended more than a week ago, the Dragon Phoenix Territory has quickly ended its market economy and entered a planned economy.
Everyone's supplies were confiscated.
Each person is only entitled to a fixed share of food and water per day.
The number of these shares is only enough to ensure that they will not starve to death or die of thirst.
If you want more shares, you can either spend points to buy them, or find a way to grab them from other people.
only.
A liter of water now costs three trading points in the Dragon Phoenix Territory. For refugees struggling on the poverty line, the price is simply unimaginable.
They were unable to pay, and they did not dare to pay, for fear that all the points they would use to save their lives would be snatched away by these greedy locusts in the town.
"Hey, Ning Chao, why are you here?"
After a while, three dark-skinned young men walked over from the corner of the street.
After seeing Ning Chao lying on the ground and Ge Jianan sitting next to him from a distance, the three young men looked at each other.
The young people on both sides continued to follow the team, but the slightly stout young man in the middle quickened his pace and walked over.
"Dabao, thank you"
"I didn't listen to you that night. It's all my fault. It's all me." Seeing Ge Dabao squatting down, Ning Chao struggled to get up with a look of regret on his face.
"I didn't expect Old Dog Long to be like this. He is not a human at all!"
"Oh, I told you before." Seeing his former friend become like this, Ge Dabao could only sigh.
There are the devices Ge Jian arranged at home, as well as secret escape passages.
On the night when the disaster ended, everyone in the Ge family was able to escape safely and unscathed with supplies under the eyes of the enemy.
But others were not so lucky.
Before leaving, Ge Dabao generously informed eleven friends with whom he had generally good relations.
But the results were brutal.
Only two people believed his words and followed him to escape with supplies.
With nine people left, the entire army was wiped out!
From night to day, the refugees under the curfew were defeated one by one, and all their homes were ransacked without making any waves.
now.
If you want to survive without supplies, you must follow the dragon lord's requirements and get up every day and put in heavy work.
Otherwise, even if they can get out of Longyin Town, they will not have enough resources to persist in other territories.
"Let's go to work first. You can rest for a while. I'll help you take him there this time."
"Dabao, you and Uncle Ge are really my lifesavers, thank you, thank you!"
Amidst Ning Chao's countless words of gratitude, Ge Dabao stretched out his hand to fish it out and put the backpack on the ground on his body.
Under daylight.
Different from the thinness of ordinary people, Ge Dabao, who carried two backpacks on his body, was still relaxed, especially because his bronzed muscles were shiny, and he was no worse than those jackal-like escorts.
"Dad, Ning Chao is not a bad person at heart, he is just a little clever."
“Should we?”
After walking out of a street and ensuring that the surrounding attention was not on him, Ge Dabao slowed down and walked side by side with Ge Jian'an.
"Don't worry, we still have enough manpower. The most important thing is to complete the task first."
"As for whether to absorb him or not, we'll talk about it in the afternoon."
"Okay!" Ge Dabao nodded calmly, stepped forward again, and gradually disappeared from Ge Jianan's sight.
Like other ordinary refugees.
The exchange between the two did not attract the attention of the surrounding defense teams.
Time flew by like this, and it wasn't until six o'clock in the afternoon when the sun was about to set that the day laborer's bell rang in the town.
At the west gate.
Ge Jianan lowered his straw hat, leaned against a low wall, and looked around him alertly.
Near him, there were many refugees taking a rest. Most of them had tired faces and dull eyes, not knowing what was going on in their minds.
But if you look carefully, you can find that there are about ten people who are obviously in better spirits than the people around them.
Like Ge Jian'an, although they try their best to disguise themselves, they can still see some clues.
"coming!"
Not long after, when Ge Dabao, who was supporting Ning Chao at the end of the street, finally came over, Ge Jianan breathed a sigh of relief and made a secret gesture.
The next moment.
Several people in the crowd stood up.
Under the leadership of Ge Jianan, he quietly walked along a low wall at the west gate.
Through the secret passage laid here, they can quietly go to the outside of Longyin Town and completely escape the sight of the jackals in the city.
Of course, Longyin Town actually had no intention of preventing anyone from escaping.
First, after the supplies were confiscated that night, the wealthy people from the territories who had some belongings had already left the city and fled to other territories by train. The remaining people were basically refugees who could not afford train tickets.
Even if they could escape from the town, there would be no other small territory with the same size as the Dragon Phoenix Territory within a hundred kilometers to go to.
The second reason is that the defense team in the town is even willing to allow those who are willing to resist in the city to escape quickly and not to encourage the remaining people who work honestly.
People are afraid of death. They can certainly use guns to suppress these dishonest bombs, but who knows if there will be any accidents in the process.
Therefore, without the Dragon Lord personally supervising the battle, the people guarding the city gate basically turned a blind eye.
In only five minutes, Ge Jianan and his party successfully left the town and arrived in the desolate wilderness.
"Dabao, what are you doing?"
After being helped out of the city, Ning Chao just turned his head and was blown in by the passing wind.
He coughed repeatedly, but after looking around, he couldn't help but asked curiously.
There are now a total of twelve people following Ge Jianan.
Except for three of them whom he had never interacted with, the others were all peers he had talked to in the construction team on weekdays.
And from their faces, Ning Chao could clearly see a look that was different from those of the refugees in the city.
Distinguish carefully.
Very familiar, yet very strange.
Even though he could vaguely guess something in his heart, his reason told him that it might be better to be a confused person.
"Oh, you'll know when we get there later."
"Go back first. Eating sand here is not a good thing."
Faced with Ning Chao's doubts, Ge Dabao glanced at Ge Jianan and shook his head slightly to avoid the topic.
Although Ning Chao did not "cleverly" continue to pretend to be sick after taking a break in the afternoon, he stood up and chose to complete the rest of the work by himself.
But these were not enough to make everyone open their hearts completely.
Just like the adult needed Ge Jianan to offer his loyalty, Ning Chao also needed to show his loyalty to pass the test.
The plains were very windy and sandy in the evening.
In addition, the scale of the Dragon and Phoenix Territory was extremely small, and the weather environment in the territory would naturally be a bit worse.
The yellow sand that rose all over the sky carried rough soil particles, rushing forward in waves, hitting the objects protruding from the ground.
After the group walked out for more than an hour, they had all become sand people, coughing continuously.
"Da, Dabao, how long do we have to walk!"
Spitting out the sand in his mouth fiercely, Ning Chao's legs and feet were a little weak due to heatstroke.
He could still hold on in the first half, but after walking for more than an hour, the familiar blackness in front of his eyes came again.
"It's in front, hold on a little longer"
Looking in the direction pointed by Ge Dabao, Ning Chao really saw a slightly raised cliff.
Now, an inexplicable power came from the bottom of his heart.
His speed increased, and the speed of the team also increased.
Five minutes before and after, the cliff was finally within reach!
"Fuck, there is actually a sunken natural cave here?"
When you look at the cliff from a distance, it looks ordinary.
But when you walk closer, you will see a cave that is large enough for one person to enter and exit.
Then go into the cliff from this cave and walk through a winding path.
Not long after, a huge space about ten meters high and more than thirty meters long and wide appeared in front of you.
"Jian'an, why did you come back at this time? We are so anxious!"
In the natural cave, at a glance, in addition to basic living facilities and reserve supplies,
There were actually five or six women sitting inside waiting anxiously.
Seeing the team coming in a long line, before Ge Jianan took off his windproof mask, a middle-aged woman with a sallow face came up eagerly.
"There is a wounded person, slow down today"
Ge Jianan took off his mask and nodded at Ning Chao behind him.
"Who is he?"
"Mom, he is my friend from the construction team before, Ning Chao" Ge Dabao supported Ning Chao and walked up, his eyes turned meaningfully.
"Hello, Auntie, I really trouble you" Being stared at by Guan Taohua, Ning Chao scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.
But it was a pity.
In just a second, his smile froze on his face.
Looking back in the direction of Guan Taohua, Ning Chao could clearly see the darkness behind the cave.
There were actually four people whose faces could not be seen clearly, tied to wooden pillars driven into the ground, struggling hard.
Especially when he saw him looking over, the man in the middle struggled even more, and the chains rustled.
Subconsciously, Ning Chao wanted to take a few steps back and break free from Ge Dabao's support.
But what frightened him even more was that Ge Dabao's hand was like a clamp, which hurt his arm.
"Da Dabao, I don't have much meat on me, you guys want to eat it"
"My meat is sour and not delicious!"
Ning Chao trembled all over, and when he looked at the other people smiling around him, he felt like he was falling into an ice cellar.
He had not only heard about the perverted behaviors of humans when they were short of food.
He had also seen with his own eyes that those people brutally killed their own kind and then put their
When Ning Chao thought that he might follow in the footsteps of those people, his legs and feet softened and he sat directly on the ground.
OK.
He had just left the breeding farm that treated them as animals, but he had entered another more terrifying cannibal cave.
Hearing the laughter around him, Ning Chao wanted to shout for help again, but he thought of the desolate plains along the way.
"Ning Chao, what's in your mind!"
"Ah? You don't want to eat?"
"Eat you, you big-headed ghost!" Ge Dabao picked up Ning Chao and went directly to the right side of the cave.
The torch was lit.
The next second, Ning Chao was dumbfounded.
In front of him, the six or seven huge water tanks were all filled with white rice, enough to supply everyone present for three months.
On the other side, he saw piles of flour bags, air-dried bacon hanging in the air, and some bread, drinks, and snacks that can only be bought from the big territory.
"If I really want to eat you, I don't need to bring you from the town so far. You are always afraid of this and that and don't trust others. I think you didn't believe me before, and it's not enough that you were unlucky enough to have all your supplies confiscated by others!"
Facts speak louder than words.
Ning Chao's originally gloomy eyes suddenly brightened when he found that there was enough food here and heard Ge Dabao's complaints.
"What about them"
"They are the people sent by Long Laogou to rob our supplies. They just underestimated me, no, underestimated my father's strength." Ge Dabao smiled silently with a mouthful of white teeth.
"If you want to join us, it's very simple"
"Just pick one of those four people and kill them!"
"Kill them?" Ning Chao was stunned, and then suddenly reacted and said in disbelief: "Dabao, you want to rebel?!"
