Chapter 214 Future
"Wow, this base layout is incredible! It even has a sports field. If it's not too much trouble, could you add a training ground for me?"
"Mr. Chen, you have such a good design, why didn't you bring it out earlier?"
"These area divisions are really great. It would be great if the base was really built like this."
Everyone looked at the design manuscript and sighed.
Xu Sichen was also very excited. This was simply her ideal living community.
She turned to look at Chen Youhui with obvious confusion in her eyes.
Chen Youhui raised his eyes and said a little embarrassedly, "I designed this blueprint before the apocalypse, so I tried to create the most comfortable living environment possible. After the apocalypse, humans can't even guarantee their own safety, so when I designed it, I based it on meeting the most basic living conditions. I really didn't think too much about it."
Apart from this, he really didn't expect that their temporary base would be so powerful.
The base leader is just a girl in her early twenties, but she is just like Doraemon and can find any supplies.
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
To think that they were all on the brink of death back then, yet now they are still dreaming of building a perfect community.
Thinking of what Xu Sichen had reminded them before, that the end of the world was not over yet and there would be more disasters waiting for them, their hearts suddenly became nervous.
Thinking back to that terrible time in the past.
In less than a year, natural disasters such as storms, floods, and earthquakes have directly destroyed the homes on which humans depend for survival, resulting in large-scale displacement of people and the deaths of millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of people.
Massive deaths and corpses everywhere will lead to the spread of deadly infectious diseases in the environment. Due to the lack of medical resources and deteriorating sanitary conditions, the epidemic will spread rapidly, causing even greater deaths.
The extreme climate of extreme cold and heat has led to global resource shortages.
Shortages of resources such as energy, food and fresh water lead to social breakdown and violent conflicts among people over resources.
This will lead to the complete collapse of the government and legal order, a surge in crime rates, and bandits and thugs occupying every corner of the world. In order to survive, the bottom line of mankind will be infinitely lowered.
Thousands of people are displaced by disasters and are looking for safe places. Underground caves, basements, and abandoned buildings will become refuges for people to escape disasters and violence.
However, due to the shortage of food, people still need to go out and look for food to fill their stomachs in the vast ruins to sustain their survival.
This cycle repeats itself. Faced with multiple survival challenges such as harsh environment, hunger, disease, violence and loneliness, every day becomes a life-and-death struggle, and no one knows how long they can hold on.
Compared to the people struggling to survive outside, the Morning Light Base is like a paradise.
Xu Sichen looked at those pairs of grateful eyes and inexplicably got goosebumps all over his body.
She pointed directly at the design on the whiteboard and said ambitiously, "My base will be built like this. It must have every supporting facility!"
Chen Youhui trembled a little and said, "Boss, are you telling the truth?"
Xu Sichen looked back at the design, coughed a few times, and said, "Except for the green belt above, after all, due to environmental limitations, even if we find greenery today, we won't be able to grow anything."
Chen Youhui: "But there are still many unknown natural disasters ahead. We have spent so much effort to build a community, but it may not be able to survive a natural disaster."
In this case, it’s better to keep it simple from the beginning.
I won’t feel bad if it is destroyed.
Xu Sichen: "Then try your best to prevent them from being destroyed! I believe you can do it."
Chen Youhui's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this: "Yes, why don't we work hard to prevent our homes from being destroyed by the wind and rain?"
Among the series of natural disasters he listed before, except for earthquakes, there is basically no solution, but other natural disasters are not impossible to resist.
At the same time, he instantly understood why the base commander asked them to make those lists.
Those who shared the same concerns as Chen Youhui also suddenly realized it.
In just a moment, the dejection on everyone's face disappeared, and what was left was full of passion and hope for the future.
A meeting lasted from day to night, with people constantly joining in and then leaving excitedly.
The whole process was mainly based on brainstorming among them, and Xu Sichen acted as an arbitrator.
The next day, at daybreak, it was time to try the Liu family.
Everyone stayed up all night and went directly from the conference room to the gate of the base.
At this moment, a temporary execution platform had been built outside the city gate.
Below the platform were the residents of the base who were forced to watch.
Except for a small number of people who were present before and knew the truth, most people only knew that they came to watch the trial of criminals in the base, but they didn't know who was being tried or what crimes they were being sentenced for.
Coupled with such a large scale of the event, everyone couldn't help but feel nervous and couldn't help asking around.
For a moment, the scene was a bit noisy.
The time was up. With a deafening gong sound from the stage, a group of serious-looking guards escorted Liu's father, Liu's mother and Liu Dandan onto the stage.
Also on stage was Wang Anjun.
"Liu Daquan, who allowed his wife to abuse and even kill his niece Liu Shulan, is sentenced to six lashes."
"Liu Dandan, knowing that her mother deliberately murdered Liu Shulan, did not report it, and even helped her mother dispose of the body, constituting the crime of aiding and abetting the destruction of evidence. She also took Liu Shulan's place, a serious offense. She is sentenced to six lashes and expulsion from the base."
"As a father, Liu Daquan voluntarily takes on six lashes for Liu Dandan, for a total of twelve. Execute!"
As soon as the verdict was read out, two guards came forward and forced Liu's father to kneel on the ground with his back to the audience below.
Wang Anjun took out a whip and whipped Liu's father on the back.
As soon as the first whip was hit, the people watching below were frightened by the crisp sound of the whip and Liu's father's screams.
Everyone has a copy of the base regulations.
Everyone knew that they would be whipped if they made mistakes, but no one took it seriously.
It's just a whipping, but it's not as painful as being in jail before the end of the world.
But when they saw the power of the whip with their own eyes, they were so frightened that they dared not breathe.
The first whip had already opened the prisoner's skin and flesh.
After the third whipping, the prisoner's back was already bloody.
After the sixth lash, the prisoner fainted.
He fainted, and naturally woke up, and continued smoking.
