Chapter 1186 No One Can Replace the City Lord!

"You suffocated them to death?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yang Tianlong.

Yang Tianlong continued:

"Yes, the people inside didn't come out, and we couldn't get into the door. It should be blocked by something. Later, we burned some firewood at the vent to make them suffocate due to lack of oxygen."

Li Yu nodded and continued:

"Report on the situation of the supplies found."

Hearing this, Yang Tianlong's face was instantly excited.

"At the Northern Federation warehouse, due to too many supplies, only a rough count was made."

"About 650 tons of various grains were found, including staple foods such as corn, flour, wheat, and rice."

"In addition, 3 tons of various seeds were found, including various vegetables, crops, etc."

"220 boxes of liquor, 45 boxes of cigarettes, and 123 boxes of medicines."

"As for other daily necessities"

Yang Tianlong and Lao Xie searched the entire warehouse, but because there were too many types, they only roughly counted the most precious materials in the end times.

Li Yu took a deep breath after hearing this number.

More than 600 tons of food, that is nearly half of the food reserves of the Dazhangshu base.

This number should not be underestimated.

However, compared with the tens of thousands of people in the Northern Federation, the number of more than 600 tons seems a bit small.

After all, if the 20,000 people in Yuanzhi's inner city are used, these more than 600 tons are not enough for them to eat for many months.

Then.

Li Yu asked others to report on the search in the North.

After listening to their reports, Li Yu had a general understanding of the materials stored in the North.

In general, there are a lot of food reserves in the North, but more of them are complete factory equipment.

There are cement plants, rice mills, brick plants, chemical plants, and vehicle repair plants here.

There are more than a dozen of these factories, which are more complete than the Dazhangshu base.

As long as these equipment are disassembled and transported to the Dazhangshu base, the structure of the Dazhangshu base can be improved immediately.

Li Yu thought to himself that the Northern Federation was indeed a wealthy family. It had started construction long before the end of the world. Moreover, they had abundant funds and had invested more than 2 billion yuan.

Just as they were discussing and holding meetings to report their achievements.

About 100 kilometers away from the Northern Federation.

Uncle San and Lao Qin were sitting on the top floor of a tall building.

Overlooking the bustling zombies under the building.

"Captain, do you think there are the most zombies in Kyoto?" Lao Qin said as he looked at the once prosperous Kyoto.

Uncle San looked at Kyoto with a complicated expression.

The building he was in was a landmark building in this district and was also one of the top 50 tall buildings before the end of the world.

He looked up.

The tall buildings stood tall, but most of the advertising signs fell to the ground.

The glass mirror of the building opposite refracted the sunlight, which was a bit dazzling.

He had come here countless times in his previous life to make reports, and he still remembered the leaders at that time.

He still remembered the scene when he first came to Kyoto. The cars were flowing like water, the horses were like dragons, the streets were bustling, and the aura of the big city made him a little dazzled.

But now everything has changed.

He looked at the dense zombies downstairs and said to Lao Qin:

"The population base here has reached more than 20 million, so of course there are more zombies, but..."

He didn't finish his words.

In fact, he was a little confused. After all, this is Kyoto.

Kyoto fell, where did all those people go?

The two sat here, sitting on the rooftop, watching the zombies on the ground, watching the sun in the distance, slowly setting.

Those zombies attracted from the Northern Federation are too slow. They have to stay here as long as possible and return to the North before the sun sets.

Time passed in a flash.

The sun sets.

In this empty city with only zombies left, it becomes more and more terrifying as the sun sets.

After all, there are too many zombies here.

Even an ordinary convenience store may have dozens of zombies running out when night falls.

"Let's go!"

Uncle San looked at the city with a complicated look, and then got on the helicopter without looking back.

Where there are people, there is hope.

Where there are no people but only zombies, it can be a terrifying dark night city.

Buzz buzz buzz——

The helicopter took off and flew towards the direction of the Northern Federation.

Tong County.

Xiao Hu led the team and searched the southern part of Tong County for two hours by helicopter.

He still couldn't accept the news of the city lord's disappearance.

His face was sad.

He remembered the scene when he first met Li Yu and the past.

It has been more than two years since he joined the camphor tree base. He watched the base grow slowly and he also invested a lot of effort.

Seeing the base getting stronger and stronger, he felt proud and proud.

But today, he heard the news of the city lord's disappearance.

Alas.

"Brother Hu, will the city lord be safe?"

Xiao Hu frowned and said, "Impossible, the city lord is a lucky man, nothing will happen to him!"

"Then why are we here?" asked the subordinate.

Xiao Hu frowned. The order he received was to bring the crashed helicopter back to the camphor tree base.

But it didn't make it clear where the city lord was.

Maybe he crashed and left?

It's possible.

Suddenly, he heard a voice on the intercom.

"Captain, we found it, right here. Let's cut down the big trees around here and send you a signal flare."

When Xiao Hu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, he quickly sat up straight and said to the people behind him: "Pay attention to the flares."

Ten minutes later.

Less than a kilometer away from him, a flare flew into the sky.

After they arrived here, they used rope ladders to lower a dozen people down to search the ground.

Although the view from the air is vast, it is blocked by the lush tree canopy.

"Go over there!" Xiao Hu said to the driver.

Buzz buzz——

In less than a minute, the helicopter appeared in the sky where the signal flare had been launched.

Xiao Hu looked at the ground and saw an overturned helicopter below. The rotor was twisted, the fuselage was full of scratches, and the windshield was broken.

There were more than a dozen large trees that had been cut down around.

The ground seemed very empty, and the white helicopter in the center was not blocked by the tree canopy and was very conspicuous.

Xiao Hu looked at the team members below who were searching there, so he simply unbuckled his seat belt and asked someone to lower the rope ladder.

He wanted to go down and see for himself.

Buzz buzz——

The helicopter rotor whipped up a huge airflow, blowing Xiao Hu's body and swaying.

He carried the gun on his back, then held on to the rope ladder and descended slowly.

soon.

He fell to the ground.

"Captain, there is no one in this helicopter, and there is no body." The team member next to him said after helping Xiao Hu.

Xiao Hu looked around. He walked to the felled tree next to him and found bullet holes.

He took a deep breath and found some more shell casings on the ground.

All this points to one message: there was a battle here!

But there wasn't a single body on the ground.

It's okay if there are no corpses. After all, there may be zombies or zombie animals in this forest to eat the corpses.

But there were not even torn pieces of clothing.

Then he entered the helicopter and checked the contents of the helicopter, but found no combat backpack.

Xiao Hu slowly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the city lord was not killed when the plane crashed. He probably escaped, but he didn't know where.

Then, he ordered to his men: "Don't touch the inside of the helicopter. Tie the helicopter up with a rope, then hoist it up and take it back to the base as it is. The helicopter will also be inspected at the base."

"yes."

Crash--

Two helicopters in the sky lowered four steel cables.

The team below tied steel cables to the four corners of the helicopter.

After being tied up, they climbed up the rope ladder, then got on the helicopter and returned to the Da Zhangshu base.

Big camphor tree base.

After discussing with Li Yu, the second uncle stopped covering up the news of Li Yu's disappearance and sent a helicopter to find where Li Yu and the others fell.

After the news of Li Yu's disappearance spread, it caused a shock in the base.

For a time, many people came to inquire, but the answers they received were all that they had not been found yet.

The first outer city.

Qingyang hurried back to the dormitory and said to the two senior brothers: "First senior brother, second senior brother, have you heard? The city lord is missing!"

Hearing this, Qing Xiao opened his eyes from sitting still, full of surprise.

"Is this news true or false? What's going on?"

Qingyang said with some worry: "I heard this news from Manager He."

"It is said that the helicopter suddenly lost contact with the city lord on his way to the Oil City. In the past few days, the helicopter at our base was always out looking for the city lord."

Qing Xiao frowned, "How could... the city lord be so young, how could he encounter such a cover-up?"

At this moment, Qingyuan slowly opened his eyes.

Then he picked up a few copper plates and threw them on the table.

Looking at the copper plate, he thought for a while and then said:

"Don't worry, the city lord will definitely be able to save the day!"

Seeing Qing Yuan Shen Shen nagging, Qing Xiao curled his lips and said:

"Don't mess with the useless ones."

Then he said to Qingyang: "Go to Director He Chao and ask him if he needs our help. I plan to help find the city lord."

Hearing this, Qingyang nodded quickly.

When he first met Li Yu, he felt that Li Yu was different from the people he usually met.

Later, when I found out that he was the lord of a city, I felt that Li Yu's previous gesture towards him was even more rare.

After staying at the Da Zhangshu base for so long, he could feel that Li Yu treated him as his brother-in-law.

And being able to join up with the two senior brothers was also a credit to Li Yu.

When you receive kindness from others, you must repay it.

What's more, he is still regarded as his elder brother.

So he rushed to the second outer city.

The second outer city.

News of Li Yu's disappearance spread throughout the country.

In a machinery maintenance factory.

After hearing the news, Lao Dong was stunned for a full minute.

"Could it be that the news is wrong?" After a long time, he asked He Bing who had just come in.

That was what He Bing told him just now.

He Bing looked sad, and then said: "In the past few days, helicopters have been going out all the time. Doesn't that prove this?"

"Alas" Old Dong looked at the steel mold in front of him and lost motivation for a moment.

And in the second urn city between the inner and outer cities.

After Bai Jie learned the news, tears flowed down her eyes.

In order not to let anyone notice anything strange, she hurried to the toilet.

Then he covered his mouth and couldn't stop crying.

No one else knew about her relationship with the city lord.

She never expected to make their relationship public, but as time went by, she couldn't help but fall in love with this man who was strong and domineering.

She used to be a strong woman, but in front of Li Yu, she was like a little woman.

"Enemy, you."

She covered her mouth hard, not daring to make a sound.

After a while, she wiped away her tears.

With determination in her eyes, she planned to go out to find Li Yu.

If the people in the base wouldn't let her out, then she would go out and find them herself.

Of course there is danger in going out.

But.

Her life was given by Li Yu, and danger could not stop her.

She didn't recognize anyone in the entire Da Zhangshu base, only Li Yu.

Even though she was the president, she ignored him completely.

In the past, I obeyed Li Hongda because of Li Yu's face.

Now that Li Yu's life and death are unknown, she must find Li Yu's whereabouts.

There is a helicopter parked outside, why not send it out to find the city lord?

Thinking of this, she wiped away her tears, her eyes full of determination.

He walked quickly towards the outer wall of the Great Zhangshu base.

As an inner-city person, she was eligible to be on the fence.

When the base was not expanded, she used to be on duty on the fence.

inner city.

When I was studying the precision planting of corn with Zhang Qiwu in the greenhouse.

Li Peizhen walked in with red eyes.

At the age of 16, after receiving two years of education at the base, she joined the agriculture department because of her meek and introverted personality and didn't like to talk. Here she was responsible for agricultural planting with Anya and the others.

Anya saw Li Peizhen coming in, so she asked, "Is the irrigation equipment in the greenhouse in the Second Outer City turned off?"

Li Peizhen didn't answer her, just walked over silently.

Anya was a little confused, then touched her head.

"Pezhen, what's wrong with you?"

Li Peizhen slowly raised her head, her eyes were red, and she could tell that she had just cried.

Anya saw her eyes were red and asked quickly:

"Pezhen, what's going on? What happened?"

Logically speaking, as Li Peizhen's cousin, no one in the entire Da Zhangshu base dares to bully her.

Why are you crying like this?

Li Peizhen said with a tearful voice: "My eldest brother crashed on his way to Oil City. He may have already died."

In her mind, when a plane crashes, it basically declares death.

And the eldest brother's crash means that

Boom!

A nuclear bomb instantly detonated in Anya's mind.

It took her a long time to recover.

It seemed that more than ten seconds had passed, or perhaps several minutes had passed.

Anya asked with red eyes:

"Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure? When did it happen?"

She shook Li Peizhen's body and asked hysterically.

It was completely different from his usual quiet and calm demeanor.

Li Peizhen was not confused when she saw Anya's state after hearing the news about her eldest brother.

She had long seen that there was something wrong with the way Sister Anya looked at her elder brother.

Li Peizhen nodded sadly and said, "It's true. I heard what my second uncle said."

"What did the president say?" Anya felt like she was struck by lightning.

He almost lost his footing.

He was supported by Zhang Qiwu beside him.

Zhang Qiwu sighed and said:

"As far as I know, the planes at our base are all helicopters. If the helicopter crashes and does not directly hit a mountain or building and cause an explosion, there is a high probability that it can land safely."

"So, the city lord may only be missing temporarily, and the possibility of death is very low."

These days, he also has some respect for the young city lord.

He was very comfortable staying in the Da Zhangshu base. He didn't have too many worldly feelings and things that were too cumbersome. He only had to concentrate on agricultural matters.

And this is what he is good at and likes.

When Anya heard what Zhang Qiwu said, she instantly found a pillar of support.

He closed the notebook in his hand and said to Zhang Qiwu: "Mr. Zhang, I'll discuss it with you another day. I'll leave the matters in the greenhouse to you for now. I'll go out for a while."

With that said, she hurriedly walked towards the outer city.

On the way to the outer city, she remembered her past contact with Li Yu.

Li Yu believed in her and handed over the agricultural cultivation of the entire base to her.

Every time he saw Li Yu, Li Yu would greet her and speak gently.

Although she didn't ask her about anything other than agriculture, she heard Li Yu say to her in a calm tone every time: "Don't be afraid, take your time."

She felt a powerful force, and it was precisely because of this force that she took up the task of planting in the camphor tree base.

Even techniques to increase grain production have been developed.

Remembered that time.

When she was in the underground plantation, she stayed up late to record the growth of the crops. At that time, underground planting had just started and growing crops was still in the experimental period. She was under great pressure.

But that night, she saw Li Yu coming in eating fruit.

After chatting with her for five minutes and even washing her a piece of fruit, Li Yu sent her back to sleep after she finished eating.

Such a city lord who respects others, cares about others, and gives her great support and trust, she has a different feeling for Li Yu.

She doesn't know if this is love, but she understands that the city lord can't be in trouble!

The camphor tree base can't be without Mr. Li!

The title of Mr. Li is the name given to Li Yu by the old people in the base.

Later, after the base became bigger, it changed to a more stylish title of city lord.

She walked very fast, and the wind blew beside her ears and curled her hair.

In the inner city classroom.

Lai Xiyue was teaching students.

Suddenly there was a commotion outside.

The sound reached the classroom.

"Have you heard? The city lord crashed when flying to the oil city!"

"Is it true?"

"It's true, it's spread in the base now."

Xuanxuan sat in the last row, close to the window, so the discussion outside was particularly clear.

Xuanxuan, who was originally looking at the textbook, heard the discussion outside.

She stood up.

Walked out of the classroom.

"Xuanxuan, the get out of class is not over yet? What are you doing?"

Lai Xiyue, who was standing on the podium, did not hear the discussion outside and wanted to stop Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan ignored her and walked out of the classroom without looking back.

She hurried to her small room, then found a backpack and stuffed some dried fruits and meat jerky distributed in the base on weekdays.

These were all saved by her.

She had experienced hunger, so she developed the habit of storing food.

She threw the bag on the table, and then took out a dagger that she had hidden and polished herself from under the bed.

Put it in the scabbard and put it close to her body.

She walked out of the small room expressionlessly and walked towards the outer city.

The entrance and exit of the outer city, since a spy broke in during the fog some time ago, someone has been on duty here.

Xu Zhen looked at Xuanxuan and was about to ask her.

Generally, you have to go through inspection before going out.

Xuanxuan opened her backpack herself, then looked straight at Xu Zhen and said:

"Is the city lord really missing?"

Xu Zhen sighed and said: "I don't know, anyway, the president said so."

"President?"

Xuxuan remembered her second uncle's face and continued expressionlessly:

"I want to go out."

Xu Zhen was a little confused. He knew that Xuanxuan was still a student, so he knew why she ran out at this time.

Just now, Song Min's gang ran out. If everyone ran to the outer city, it would be a mess.

And Xuanxuan probably hasn't finished class yet.

So Xu Zhen said: "Xuanxuan, you should go to class first. Leave the adults' affairs to us. The city lord will be fine."

Xuxuan didn't say anything, just stared at him.

Xu Zhen had no choice but to check her backpack and let her go out.

When Xuanxuan came to the first outer city, the open space was full of people.

Li Hongda was walking down from the wall.

Xuxuan saw the president and stopped and looked over there.

"Is the news of the city lord's disappearance true?" Song Min asked Li Hongda who was coming down.

As soon as he finished speaking, He Bing also shouted: "President, give us a definite answer? How is the city lord now?"

The second uncle looked at the dense crowd below and felt a little overwhelmed.

He felt that he and Li Yu had played too much.

He just wanted to delay the news for two days to see if anyone would jump out.

But what he didn't expect was that this group of people would jump out, and it seemed that this group of people were worried about Li Yu.

Damn!

Stealing a chicken but losing the rice.

Li Hongda coughed a few times, then stood in the middle of the steps.

He shouted from a high position:

"It's true, but the city lord is just missing. We are still searching with all our strength. Please return to your respective posts, don't panic, don't mess up, and do the things at hand first!"

The next second, someone shouted:

"Since the city lord is missing, why are there still helicopters in the base? Aren't they all sent out to search!?"

It was Bai Jie's voice.

The second uncle's expression was a little ugly. This matter was messed up.

Li Yu has already found it. Wouldn't it be a waste of fuel if he was sent out again?

So he said, "The helicopter is still under repair. We have been searching for it a few days ago."

As soon as this was said.

Everyone talked about it.

"I wonder why the helicopters in the base flew out frequently a few days ago. I thought there was a mission, but it turned out to be because the city lord was missing. So, the city lord has been missing for a few days."

"It's been several days, why haven't they found it yet!"

"Could it be that they didn't search hard enough? After all, if the city lord dies, the president can go up."

"Be careful, the president is the city lord's second uncle and a relative. How could he do such a thing?"

"Haha, power is blinding, you are still too naive."

"No way, I don't think the president is such a person."

"Anyway, I don't care. My life was saved by the city lord. I only recognize the city lord. They can't find it after so many days of searching, so I must go to find it!"

There was a lot of discussion.

Li Hongda heard some unpleasant voices.

But none of these voices mentioned the intention of fighting for power and profit, but they all carried a tone of responsibility, asking why not to increase efforts to search for the city lord.

He did not expect that Li Yu's reputation in the base was so high.

"Everyone, please be quiet." He Chao shouted beside him.

He said it several times in a row.

The crowd below finally quieted down.

After thinking for a while, the second uncle said:

"Don't worry, I understand your feelings. The city lord is my relative. I will definitely try my best to find him."

"So don't gather here, go back, and I will inform you when there is new news about the search for the city lord."

Yu Lei walked over with a cane.

Then he looked at the second uncle and said:

"President, I know you must want to find the city lord."

"But you just said that the city lord has disappeared for several days. The longer the time is delayed, the more dangerous the city lord will be. I suggest that all the forces of the base be mobilized to search for the city lord!"

Yu Lei said to Li Hongda with tears in his eyes.

His leg was broken by Gan Gaojie.

But he was not aggrieved.

Because he saw Li Yu help him get revenge, and in front of him, he smashed Gan Gaojie into a pulp with a stick.

Since then, he has been loyal to Li Yu.

He even forbids anyone to say bad things about Li Yu.

At this time, Li Yu was missing, and he was extremely worried.

He even knew the greed of human hearts, although the base belonged to the Li family.

But he was not loyal to the entire Li family, but was specifically loyal to Li Yu.

If Li Yu died, who would be the biggest vested interest?

Perhaps it was the current person in power.

It was either black or white.

He had spent the two dark years of the end of the world and was very clear about human nature.

He was afraid that Li Hongda would not use his greatest strength to search.

So he forced Li Hongda to do his best to find him.

Whether he could find him or not was another matter, but he had to do his best!

Li Yu was the sky of the big camphor tree base!

After Yu Lei shouted loudly, He Bing, Lao Dong, Lao Zhou and others below all expressed their support.

Second uncle Li Hongda was a little overwhelmed. If Li Yu was not found at this time, he would directly agree to mobilize all the forces of the base to search.

But

He had found it.

Isn't that a waste of time?

At that time, it would delay the normal operation of the base.

So Li Hongda continued:

"Don't worry, we have sent many people out to search, and we will definitely do our best to find him."

"And us!" He Bing raised his hand and shouted.

"Yes, and us." Song Min also said with red eyes.

"And us."

Bai Jie, Meng Yu, Anya, Yu Lei, Qingyang, Fusheng, Zhou Weiguo, Tianshu.

And others raised their hands and shouted in unison.

The second uncle was extremely upset at this moment.

He felt that it was a stupid decision to let the people at the base know about the crash.

Although Li Yu really crashed, he has been found now.

Seeing the situation become like this.

The second uncle Li Hongda was a little numb, and then quickly asked He Chao to find Li Hongyuan and explain it to him.

Li Hongyuan is Li Yu's father. He also knew that Li Yu was missing and had found out about it.

Yesterday he also contacted Li Yu through the radio.

"Brother, go over and say a few words, let everyone go back to work first, and then tell them that we will definitely do our best to find Xiaoyu." Li Hongda said to Li Hongyuan.

Li Hongyuan looked at his second brother and sighed.

He had opposed the decision of his second brother and Xiaoyu from the beginning.

But now that things have come to this, everyone can only go back to work first, otherwise everyone in the base will run out to find Xiaoyu, which will be a mess.

So he stood up.

Looking at everyone.

Bai Jie and others below shut their mouths after seeing Li Hongyuan.

This man is the city lord's real father.

Li Hongyuan rarely participates in the affairs of the base on weekdays, but he will participate when there are large-scale projects to be built.

Although his presence is not strong at ordinary times, because Li Hongyuan is a good person, he smiles when he sees everyone, but he has a good relationship with people.

In comparison, the second uncle is inevitably a little majestic because he has to control the base and manage the base, so he is a little distant from everyone.

Everyone recognized Li Hongyuan.

Li Hongyuan said:

"I am Li Yu's father, the city lord's father. I am very worried about his disappearance. I am more sad than everyone present."

"But."

He changed the subject.

He continued:

"The base cannot be in chaos, this is our foundation."

"Everyone ran out to find the city lord, who will protect the base?"

"Everyone is worried, me too. But this base is our common hard work."

"Everyone must obey the command, chaos will only cause harm, we must pull together to exert the greatest strength."

"Please listen to the arrangements and orders, don't be chaotic, chaos will only waste more time."

"So, please go back to your respective posts, in addition, we will gather suitable personnel in batches, and go out to search for the city lord in batches."

Li Hongyuan first told everyone his identity, and then told everyone that he was more sad than them, and then gave a plan.

Sure enough.

After Li Hongyuan said this, everyone expressed their agreement and understanding, and dispersed obediently.

Li Hongda was relieved to see the dispersed personnel.

Looking at his eldest brother, he said with a wry smile:

"Brother, I really am."

Li Hongyuan sighed and said:

"You two are usually very smart people, how could you do such a trick."

The second uncle scratched his head. He was a little embarrassed in front of his elder brother.

Li Hongyuan looked at the backs of the people leaving and said with some emotion:

"But this is also good news."

"At least, it is enough to prove the status of Xiaoyu in their hearts."

The second uncle nodded and looked at the backs of the people with some emotion.

Sure enough, no one in the base could replace Li Yu's position.

No one, no one.

Suddenly.

He saw a small figure carrying a schoolbag, standing at the gate of the outer city with Master Yang.

Xuanxuan?

What is she going to do?

So he hurried over.

When he walked in, he heard Master Yang say to Xuanxuan helplessly:

"Xuanxuan, you can't go out. Lai Xiyue just told me that you are still in class."

Xuanxuan frowned and said, "I'm going out to find the city lord."

The second uncle came over and asked:

"How do you go out to find him? Go on foot?"

Xuanxuan stopped talking immediately.

Second uncle continued: "Tomorrow, I will send a helicopter to take you."

"But today, you go back and study hard!"

Xuanxuan thought about it and felt that what Second uncle said made sense.

So she turned around and left without even saying hello.

"President, why is she so rude?" Master Yang was a little unhappy when he saw Xuanxuan turned around and ran away.

Second uncle sighed, he knew Xuanxuan.

This girl, except for Li Yu, doesn't listen to anyone.

Waved his hand and said to Master Yang: "Watch the gate, don't let anyone go out, if there is any situation, contact me at any time."

After that.

He hurried back to the inner city of the base.

Come to the villa area and find the long-wave radio station in the inner city.

Urgently contact Li Yu in the Northern Federation:

"Xiaoyu, I can't hold on here anymore. Everyone has to go out to find you. If you don't show up, I will be forced to send someone out to find you. Hurry up and make a sound!"

(Seeking monthly tickets)
