Chapter 382 Falling into the Nest of Fortune
“This can’t be made of clay.”
"It smells so good. It has a sweet taste, as if sugar has been added. If the soil smells that good, I would like to eat it!"
"Don't eat it, it's poisonous."
"Poison is nothing! I'd rather be a glutton. Have we ever had a full meal since these monsters appeared? Wuwuwu!"
A young soldier suddenly had an emotional outburst. He was just an ordinary farmer, working in the fields with his father and brothers. Every day he was worried about the poor harvest and had to give food to the landlord, so his life was very tight.
But it's better than now! I'm afraid that one day I'll die in the mouth of a zombie, or my eyes will close and I'll never be able to open them again.
He grabbed the cake and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Wait, don't eat it."
The disgust and despair spread to the others, who snatched up the opened package of cakes.
Yuesheng was thinking about the quilt and the pile of food, and he didn't stop it. He even asked the soldiers to share the cakes.
"It's delicious. What kind of pastry is this? It's so crispy and fragrant. I feel so sad that some of the pastry crumbs fell to the ground~"
"Oh my God, this must be the treasure you sent me. I think it tastes better than the cakes the landlord eats. I would be willing to die tomorrow."
"There are no humans in Liuxi County, but gods. Are you going to take me away? I am the most nimble, take me away quickly!"
......
A group of people huddled under quilts and slept well for the first time since the chaotic world. When they opened their eyes and saw the sunlight, it felt like they were in another world.
"Hey, hey, hey, why are you touching me?"
"Where's my hoe?"
"Hahahaha, sorry, I thought you were going to get down to the ground."
As their thoughts returned to their minds, they remembered that this was a chaotic world full of monsters. They put down their hoes and picked up their knives, preparing to attack the city in someone else's territory.
"So, there is no poison in the cakes. Hey, who dares to hit your father?"
"Whose father?"
The soldier turned around and saw that it was Yuesheng. He immediately put down his hands that were covering his head and said, "You are my grandpa."
"Don't you think about it? Who wants to poison you and give you a quilt? And make it into cakes? Isn't it a waste of food and quilt? Just these two things, if you sell them, they are worth a lot of money."
The soldiers were enlightened: "So we won't die! But can we really take over Willow Creek County?"
Yuesheng shook his head. He realized that Liuxi County had plenty of food and supplies for the winter. Even if they stayed there until their death, it would not have any impact on Liuxi County.
So he decided...
By the time Lin Xinhuan and his companions arrived at Liuxi County at high speed, they found that the closer they got to the city, the fewer zombies there were. Basically, the zombies would smell the scent and run towards them at a constant speed, but would be left behind by the horses and would disappear from sight for a while. The journey was smooth.
"Horse! It's a horse! I saw a real horse!"
He looked so surprised, as if he had seen an alien. He forgot what he was doing and stared in amazement.
"I have to work quickly and go back to see the excitement." He sprinkled the grass seeds and medicine in his hands on the land. I heard that a green grassland will be harvested in the spring of next year.
Even though he was itching to death, he had to complete the task assigned to him. This was a land contaminated by zombies. Although it seemed unlikely to recover, he wanted to believe that a miracle would happen. He did seemingly futile actions, patted his hands dry, and stroked his new coat. At this moment, he felt extremely at ease.
The group of people working outside the city were sponsored by Jinshi County. Even if they had not been educated, they knew that they had to fight against zombies outside the city without any shelter from the wind and rain, and had to endure lack of water and food. They were literally guarding the safety of Liuxi County with their lives.
Besides, they were working under the Wang family just to make a living, and they would also be making a living under another employer. Why should they stay in Jinshi County where they were working as cattle and horses?
The act of throwing out quilts and cakes in Liuxi County showed that those in power had a kind heart, and tens of thousands of people resolutely rebelled and surrendered.
When the city gates were opened, they lined up, ready to hand over everything they had. They were told that they could keep the things and could enter the city. The men who killed the zombies were at a loss, like children who had done something wrong.
"We will work hard, don't chase us away." I thought it was the scarce supplies that were being discarded.
The guards smiled and said, "Of course not. The city under our jurisdiction, King Zhu, accepts homeless people for free. As long as you are willing to come, King Zhu is willing to protect you."
"But once you enter our city, you must abide by the rules of our King Zhu." His face changed and his expression became serious, which made them feel very oppressive. However, it made them feel relieved. There is no ruler who does not oppress the people. As long as they can get a break, they will be satisfied.
"You can't commit crimes. Those who don't obey the law will be kicked out."
"That's it???" This rule is as easy as breathing to them.
"That's it."
As soon as they entered the gate of Liuxi County, it was like falling into a nest of blessings. They were puzzled by a hundred thousand reasons. It was obviously the same structure as the city of Jinshi County, but they couldn't see enough.
“There’s actually pork.”
"It turns out that the holy light we saw last night was this little thing."
"Brother, your clothes are really nice. How come I have never seen them before?"
"Ah? If you join the army, everyone gets two sets! It's free. We in the God's Gift Army get contribution points every month, which can be exchanged at the branch store in the main city for food, clothing, daily necessities, and everything else. The branch store also sells things you can't even imagine."
"The glowing flashlights you mentioned are available in the branch. Every member of the God-given Army will be given one. Basically, we will be given everything we need for daily life. The monthly contribution points cannot be spent at all. Even a soldier can use the contribution points to support a family of three."
"Eh? But I heard that because there are too many cities now, the distance between branches is too far. King Zhu said that he would transport supplies to each county every seven days to open branches of branches. Now he has begun to recruit artisans, and other shops will be opened in the county in the future."
"Is that so? The deputy general told me last time that Liuxi County will develop into a breeding county in the future, supplying pigs, cattle and sheep to other counties."
"That's great, doesn't that mean we can eat meat every day? Hahahaha."
Tens of thousands of people were confused. What development? What supply? What about eating meat every day? They didn't understand anything. They seemed to be very powerful.
However, they understood that joining the God-given Army must be a good thing. They were incorporated into the God-given Army that day and began to work for Liuxi County.
"What is hot pot? Are we having hot pot tonight? Can we have it too?"
After getting a positive answer, tens of thousands of people with empty stomachs and empty bags were overwhelmed with shame. They became the most hated relatives who came to ask for money.
There is work everywhere: "Brother, let me push the cart. I am strong."
"Brother, you want to chop wood, right? I used to chop wood at home every day. Give it to me."
"Girl? Are you also from the God's Gift Army?"
The female soldiers on patrol, wearing green assault suits, looked heroic, with stern eyes and rifles at hand: "Why do you have any opinions?"
