However, Lu Tian is not optimistic about the so-called citizen representatives. In the end times, resources are scarce, human nature is sinister, and even brothers may not be trustworthy, let alone fighting for the interests of ordinary people.
Perhaps at the beginning, these citizen representatives will fight for the interests of the citizens, but in the later stages, those who are weak-willed will be corrupted by the people of the aristocratic families and sects, and finally become corrupt and collude with them.
The Presbyterian Church became a meeting for dividing the spoils and a tool for aristocratic families and sects to exploit the people.
"Brother Lu Tian, it's time to eat. Today we're having chicken nuggets with potatoes. Niuniu dug the potatoes herself, and they taste amazing!"
Niu Niu came to Lu Tian and said in a baby voice.
The potatoes in the field can be harvested today. Niu Niu carried her small vegetable basket and dug a few potatoes with her own hands. Last time, Lu Tian was not able to eat the potatoes she dug with her own hands, so she must make it up to him this time.
"Okay, try the potatoes that Niuniu dug."
Lu Tian stood up, picked up Niu Niu, and lifted her above his head.
Niu Niu giggled and laughed happily like a silver bell.
Drink today and be drunk today, why worry about other people's worries and complaints. These are other people's concerns, so I just live a comfortable life, planting crops, watering flowers, fishing, playing Landlord, playing games, and being as happy as a god.
Lu Tian put aside these disturbing thoughts. Since the course of history cannot be changed, he must learn to enjoy it!
Holding Niu Niu, he walked into the house.
Delicious dishes were already placed on the table, including chopped pepper fish head, garlic eggs, stir-fried meat, potato chicken nuggets and delicious mushroom soup.
At this time, Xue Ling came out with red and swollen eyes, sat at the table, and ate at a very fast speed in a distracted manner, as if someone was snatching the food from her.
"What's the point of watching love stories? They're all just lies that make you cry!"
Lu Tian said with disgust.
Some time ago, Xue Ling took advantage of the signal to download a bunch of TV dramas and movies, such as "The Domineering CEO" and "The Little Wife". She watched them with gusto and was completely obsessed with them. She was often sad and depressed. She stopped practicing and didn't eat well. You know, it's difficult for people outside to have a full meal now, but she was so obsessed with watching TV dramas that she didn't eat.
"What do you know!"
Xue Ling rolled her eyes in annoyance, quickly finished her rice, and ran into the house to watch TV without eating any other dishes.
Lu Tian was stunned. This brainless skit had such a great appeal. Coming back to his senses, Lu Tian shook his head and looked at Niu Niu, who was gnawing on a chicken leg with her head buried in the bowl. He said:
"Niuniu, don't be like your sister Xue Ling in the future. Eat your food properly!"
Niu Niu raised her head, thought seriously for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "But Brother Lu Tian, those guys are so handsome. Niu Niu can look at them for a little while, just a little less."
As she spoke, Niu Niu stretched out her index finger and gestured.
Lu Tian was speechless with surprise.
…
As time passed, everything in the Magic City was slowly recovering due to the effective management of the Elders' Council. However, the environment on Earth did not improve at all, but became worse and worse.
From occasional correspondence with Yan Qingcheng, Murong Liuyu and others, Lu Tian discovered that the trajectory of history was so similar. The Magic City was still unable to get in touch with Yanjing and other places, and the Magic City became an isolated city.
In the previous life, this situation lasted for half a year before contact was made with the outside world. However, the result was that the situation outside was even worse. Except for Yanjing, the shortage of supplies in other bases was similar to that in Magic City, or even worse.
Murong Liuyu happily shared the progress of post-disaster reconstruction in the Magic City on his mobile phone.
After seeing this, Lu Tian felt a sinking feeling in his heart. Judging from the timing, the aristocratic sect was about to reveal its evil ambitions.
The good times are coming to an end!
During this period, the entire nation entered a wave of evolution. The surviving population of the Demon City was over 12 million, and nearly 200,000 people had awakened their special abilities, reaching a terrifying ratio of 60 to 1. These people were recruited by the government and aristocratic families and sects, strengthening the power of the Demon City.
Murong Liuyu and Yan Qingcheng have both broken through and become masters of superpowers. There are now ten war god-level powerhouses in the Magic City. If the hidden war god-level powerhouses are added, there are no less than fifteen war god-level powerhouses in the Magic City.
Their strength is terrifying, but they dare not act rashly. The outskirts of the Demon City are surrounded by mountains and seas of wild beasts, among which there are two known beast emperors and more than ten beast kings. Therefore, even if a strong man at the level of a god of war goes out, he will be in great danger.
The Magic City can only wait now, waiting for support from outside, waiting for the situation to improve.
As a result, the Magic City is now depleting its resources, and Lu Tian estimates that the Magic City is about to face a crisis of material shortages. The surviving population of the Magic City is much better than in the previous life, proving that although the pre-disaster preparations did not prevent the disaster, they did reduce the losses. The surviving population is more than 10% higher than in the previous life.
But an increase in population is not a good thing for the current Magic City. Supplies are limited, and now with so many more people, the consumption of supplies for tens of millions of people in Magic City in a day is terrifying. In this case, the ugly faces of the aristocratic sects may be exposed earlier.
Another week passed, and there was less and less news about Murong Liuyu, and there was no news in the past two days.
"The aristocratic clans have taken control of the Elders' Council!"
At noon that day, Lu Tian was leisurely drinking tea when he received a message from Yan Qingcheng on his mobile phone.
Sure enough, the people from the aristocratic families could no longer sit still and revealed their ugly faces!
Lu Tian's heart skipped a beat, but he recovered immediately. The aristocratic sects had overturned the table two weeks earlier than in the previous life. Now it has been more than two months since the end of the world. It seems that the shortage of supplies may be worse than he thought.
"Wait and see!"
After Lu Tian sent the text message, he continued to make and drink tea.
The current situation is changing rapidly. The aristocratic sects have shown their fangs, and their strength is no longer afraid of support from Yanjing.
…
Time flies, and the aristocratic sects in the Magic City finally took control of the Elder Council with overwhelming force.
The Council of Elders had completely become a tool for the aristocratic families and sects to exploit and oppress the citizens. As Lu Tian had expected, seven of the eight citizen representatives were bribed by the aristocratic families and sects and became their lackeys.
Although Murong Liuyu and other members of the Dragon Group Guard and the government army were struggling to hold on, their firearms no longer had any deterrent effect on the well-established aristocratic sects. If Murong Liuyu and Chu Tian had not broken through and become war god-level warriors, they might have been squeezed out of the Council of Elders.
The citizens of Shanghai are in dire straits. All kinds of chaos and crimes are happening in Shanghai every moment. As time goes by, this phenomenon becomes more and more serious. Shanghai has become a city of crime and death.
…
One day half a year later, Lu Tian was sitting by the pond, lying on a reclining chair, his eyes seemingly closed, his mind at ease. In front of him was a fishing rod, but the strange thing was that there was no line at the other end of the rod, let alone a hook.
Jiang Taigong fishes, and those who are willing to take the bait will be caught. There is a line and a straight hook, whether good or bad.
If you want to fool people, you have to do it in a proper way, so Lu Tian just forgot to do it.
Xue Ling on the side laughed at him, "It's strange that you can catch fish like this.
Lu Tianze smiled mysteriously.
Suddenly, the ground shook violently a few times, and the pond suddenly exploded like a pot, with waves splashing everywhere, and all kinds of big fish jumped out of the water. A carp weighing dozens of kilograms jumped onto the water and bit the fishing rod tightly.
