Chapter 142 Gnawing
On the third day, the four arrived at a central city.
The temperature dropped sharply.
They had to stop temporarily and enter the city gate.
The streets were deserted, completely desolate. Even the soldiers defending the city were nowhere to be seen. Jiang Qingqing wrapped herself tightly, rubbing her hands together, and the warm breath from her breath frosted her eyelashes.
"What should I do?"
Jiang Qingqing asked Fu Zhengnan.
The surrounding temperature has dropped to minus 30 degrees Celsius, and the horses have become wilted from the cold.
Fu Zhengnan: "Find a house first and I'll help you repair it."
"Okay." Jiang Qingqing looked around and saw an independent townhouse under the city gate. "Is that okay?"
Fu Zhengnan took a quick look and said, "It's okay. Go ahead."
Jiang Yu removed the horse rack and led the horse into the house.
Fu Zhengnan searched the mall: [Reinforcement] [Insulation] [Floor Heating] [External Power Grid]...
After a series of operations, the house was upgraded to a top-level safe house.
Once the floor heating is turned on, the temperature rises.
Jiang Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, feeling alive again: "I wonder how everyone in Xuzhou is doing."
Along the way, Mo Yunyue was wondering who Jiang Qingqing was always talking to. And now she finally knew why those inexplicable objects appeared.
It turns out that there really is a god helping Jiang Qingqing.
But she no longer feels any jealousy because she is also one of the beneficiaries.
The scar on my face has healed a little thanks to the medicine given by God.
Although it has not fully recovered yet, it is no longer as hideous and scary as before.
Xiao Congyan lay on the only old wooden bed and said, "There's nothing to worry about. I guess he's living better than us."
The people in Xuzhou have warm houses and heated kangs in every house, so they don’t suffer as much as those who have to sleep in the open air.
"I see no one in this city. I wonder if something happened to them."
Jiang Yu brought the conversation back to the main topic.
Their purpose of entering the city was, firstly, to avoid the cold, and secondly, to see if there was anything they could do to help the people, such as giving them some food or something else.
But it is estimated to be difficult to implement.
In this kind of winter, even if food is distributed, who will come to collect it?
If you queue up to receive it, you will freeze to death outside.
Mo Yunyue, who had been silent all the way, said softly, "Let me help you explore the way and mark out the houses where people live."
Xiao Congyan was the first to agree: "Okay, it's you."
Jiang Yu: "Nonsense."
He was talking to Xiao Congyan.
Mo Yunyue is a woman. Wouldn't it be fatal for her to go out alone in such cold weather?
Jiang Qingqing did not comment.
She always felt that Mo Yunyue didn't seem to be afraid of the cold.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Congyan's next words confirmed her suspicions. He said, "Mo Yunyue accidentally absorbed an ice-type energy crystal core. Although she can't use the energy, the only benefit is that she's not afraid of the cold."
Jiang Qingqing looked at Mo Yunyue in surprise.
So powerful?
Is there such a function?
Mo Yunyue looked at Jiang Qingqing's eyes and lowered her head embarrassedly: "Yes, I'm not afraid of the cold."
at last.
After discussing with several people, they asked Mo Yunyue to take the walkie-talkie and go outside to check the situation.
——
This severe drop in temperature froze many people to death in the central cities.
After the high temperature, there has never been a single rain.
This left the already hungry people without even water to drink, and amidst the starvation and cold, cannibalism became a trend.
Mo Yunyue hid behind the haystack.
Looking at the people in front who were gnawing on human heads and drinking human blood.
My hands were shaking with fear.
She had already found many places where people lived and marked them on the map.
It's been a while since we've been out, it's time to go back.
I didn't expect her to see such a horrifying scene.
"This meat is so fresh. Brother, how long do you think it can last? Let's eat some first and take it home."
"The whole family is starving, but you are enjoying yourself."
The two brothers were discussing how to eat this huge delicacy without paying attention to the people around them. They had been doing this for several days.
Of course, we also learned from other companies.
Otherwise I would really starve to death.
Mo Yunyue tried to leave quietly, but Xiao Congyan's voice came from the intercom in her hand: "Hello, hello, are you back? The hot pot is ready, come back and eat quickly."
In this deserted street, Xiao Congyan's voice sounded unusually loud.
It reached the ears of the two brothers.
They were already looking over here alertly.
"Oh no, there are people there!"
The eldest brother pointed at Mo Yunyue behind the haystack and said, "Catch her. We'll have another meal tonight."
Mo Yunyue ran towards the city gate.
One hand pressed the intercom: "Help me! Come and save me! In the alley east of the city gate, there are people eating people!"
In the warm house, the aroma of the hot pot base wafts.
But because of Mo Yunyue's words, his expression became solemn.
Jiang Qingqing put on the big coat beside her and said, "Let's go!"
Jiang Yu and Xiao Congyan followed closely behind.
Mo Yunyue's legs were not in good condition to begin with, and because he had been tied with chains for many days, the flesh at his ankles had rotted.
It still hurts when I run now.
The moment she fell, looking at the two men rushing towards her from behind, she felt that she was doomed. Those two bloody mouths were openly smiling.
She was their next meal.
Mo Yunyue closed her eyes.
A bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck the two men directly.
"Mo Yunyue!"
Xiao Congyan's voice was heard, and his figure was so fast that it appeared as a phantom in the air.
He hugged Mo Yunyue and asked, "Are you okay?"
Mo Yunyue looked at him blankly. She was not dead.
The two men struck by lightning didn't die immediately, but were just gasping for breath. Blurred eyes, he looked at the three people who suddenly appeared before him and grinned, "Hey, there are still three more to eat."
After saying this, he died shortly afterwards.
Jiang Qingqing couldn't describe how she felt.
A bit sour.
"What's wrong with them?"
Jiang Yu stepped forward to block Jiang Qingqing's gaze from looking at the bright red in the distance, and asked Mo Yunyue who was still in shock.
Mo Yunyue was not pretentious. Although she was still a little scared, she spoke clearly and told them everything she had just seen.
Everyone was silent.
They guessed that the people in other cities were having a hard time.
I didn't expect it to come to this.
On that day, Jiang Qingqing asked Fu Zhengnan for a lot of food and a robot dog.
According to the map provided by Mo Yunyue, the robot dog packed up large bags of food, water and fire and transported them to the designated location.
He also carries a loudspeaker: [Free food and water]
Free food and water
Playing on a loop.
The dying people, curled up in their homes, heard the loud trumpets outside and thought they were hallucinating before they died.
"Mother, I heard someone say there's food."
A little girl of 4 or 5 years old murmured as she hugged her mother who had already frozen to death.
She didn't know that her mother had been dead for many days.
No matter how hard I shake it, there's no response.
