Chapter 769 Natural Death
As if she could see through her brother and sister-in-law's thoughts, Li Wanwan gently held Li Zhaozhao and Xu Yajing's hands and said, "Natural disasters are ruthless, everything is fate!"
Li Zhaozhao woke up as if from a dream. Yes, Old Shen and the others did not force him to follow. Old Shen even suggested that they go to the Kunmeng Mountains and wait. It was him who thought that he and his brothers could better survive the disaster. He felt that even if the ocean was powerful, it would not flood the central region.
He was proven wrong and paid a heavy price for it.
Li Zhaozhao felt ashamed and forced a smile on his face: "I understand, thank you Wanwan."
Xu Yajing also knew that he was upset, so she held his hands tightly and comforted him, "Maybe the child is not meant for us, so you don't have to blame yourself."
Li Zhaozhao nodded: "I just want to find my parents and go back to Hai City."
Xu Yajing was stunned. "Aren't we going to the Kunmeng Mountains? Hai City should be in ruins, right?"
Li Zhaozhao smiled slightly, his eyes sparkling with light, "But that's home, we have to go back home."
He didn't tell Xu Yajing about the supplies, so Xu Yajing naturally couldn't understand the significance of returning to Hai City.
Li Zhaozhao clearly remembered that Shen Yanming had told him that the place he was looking for was not afraid of the scorching sun, wind and rain, and even floods.
Therefore, as long as they return to Haishi, they will not be afraid of having no food. Life should be better than going to Kunmeng Mountains.
Seeing that her husband was no longer depressed, Xu Yajing nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Li Wanwan also breathed a sigh of relief and said to her brother and sister-in-law in a low voice, "Don't worry, Brother Yanming is a very wise man, we will be fine if we follow him."
Shen Yanming didn't know about the conversation here. If he knew, he would definitely vomit three liters of blood. He didn't have great wisdom, he just had a space and had to use it secretly.
Just like now, feeling that Nuan Nuan was a little restless, Shen Yanming secretly took a chocolate candy from the space and stuffed it into Nuan Nuan's mouth. Nuan Nuan immediately covered her mouth with her little hands, her eyes curved into crescents.
Zhang Heping saw this and joked, "Oh, what good news is going on with my little niece that makes her laugh like this?"
Shen Yanming rubbed Nuan Nuan's little head and held her in his arms, not letting Zhang Heping see: "Tell her that she will be able to go to her mother in two days. She is happy."
Zhang Heping's eyes lit up: "Any news about Qiao An?"
"Got it. The smart bracelet is turned on. It's a bit far from here, but it's good to know that she is safe."
"That's right. No matter how far away we are, let's go look for him. By the way, since Qiao An is fine, Lao Ji should be fine too, right?"
Shen Yanming's smile faded, and he shook his head and said, "No news yet."
Zhang Heping didn't believe it and operated his smart bracelet back and forth: "How is it possible? He is so strong, how could something go wrong?"
"Maybe, I just didn't remember to turn it on." Even he himself didn't believe this reason.
Seeing that everyone had rested for a while, Tang Shunlin said, "Let's go to the beach and see which bodies... uh, we can fish out."
"Okay, I'll go with you." Many people who had been to the beach in the morning stood up.
"I have a lot of branches here for you to use." Ji Shaoming took out some thin branches from the corner, "Our team will go to find food in the afternoon."
"Okay, thank you. I'll come to see you when I'm done here." Tang Shunlin said with a smile.
"good!"
Shang Haoqiang thought about it and decided to follow Tang Shunlin to the beach. So did Shen Yanming.
Seeing this, Zhang Heping asked Nuan Nuan: "Do you want to go with uncle and let your father do his work?"
Nuan Nuan shook her little head and clung to Shen Yanming's neck, "I want to be with Daddy."
Shen Yanming chuckled, patted Nuan Nuan on the back and said, "The beach might be scary, Nuan Nuan, are you sure you want to go?"
"Go, daddy is here, don't be afraid!" Nuannuan said in her baby voice.
Shen Yanming nodded: "Okay, Dad will take you with him. If you are scared, just close your eyes."
"Okay!" Nuannuan agreed, but after arriving at the beach, she kept her eyes wide open.
Shen Yanming asked: "Nuan Nuan is not afraid?"
Nuan Nuan shook her head in bewilderment. Seeing this, Tang Shunlin said, "Maybe the child doesn't understand the meaning of death at all. In her eyes, these people are no different from those on the shore."
Shen Yanming nodded, but still pressed Nuannuan into his arms to block her sight, "Baby, don't look, you'll have nightmares."
Nuan Nuan closed her eyes obediently. Shen Yanming winked at Tang Shunlin, and he stood on the shore, using a long branch to pull the floating corpse to the shore.
But just as the branch poked the body, a group of fish scattered. Tang Shunlin was startled, and when he saw the fish clearly, his face turned pale.
"What a pervert, he can even eat this kind of fish?" Tang Shunlin cursed, thinking that Huangmao was a little crazy.
Shen Yanming's face also looked unhappy, and he said to Tang Shunlin: "Let's leave tonight after Ji Shaoming comes back." I'm afraid we can't stay in this place anymore.
Tang Shunlin had no objection, but Shang Haoqiang asked: "What about your friend? She can't move yet."
Shen Yanming went back to Zhang Heping and said in a low voice, "You and Wanwan go make a stretcher. Use branches from the forest. It doesn't matter if it's a little crude. It's fine as long as it can get through tonight."
Zhang Heping didn't ask the reason, he ran away, whispered a few words to Li Wanwan, and went into the woods.
When Shen Yanming returned to the beach, he saw that they had already fished out all the floating corpses, but they were piled up on the beach, and he didn't know what to do with them.
One of the young men had tears on his face, and when Shen Yanming asked, he found out that his relatives were among them.
"My condolences!" That was all Shen Yanming could say.
The young man nodded, "I know, at least I found him. There were many people, but even the body could not be found."
The young man looked at Tang Shunlin and asked, "Captain Tang, I want to bury my father."
Tang Shunlin frowned, "It's better to burn it. I'm afraid of spreading the disease."
The young man smiled sadly: "We all came from the sea. If we wanted to dye our hair, we would have done it long ago. Can my father change the world situation alone?"
Tang Shunlin didn't know how to answer. Logically, it should be burned, but there were reasons beyond reason and it couldn't be forced.
He looked at Shen Yanming, who shook his head, feeling that there was no way to persuade him about this matter.
Tang Shunlin sighed: "Okay, do whatever you want." His fate is his own, and there is nothing he can do about it.
The young man smiled gratefully: "Thank you!" and left with his father's body in his arms.
After the people left, Tang Shunlin bowed to the swollen corpses and said, "I'm sorry, I need to cremate you. I hope you can be reborn in a stable world in your next life, free from illness and disaster, and die of natural causes."
When Shen Yanming heard this, he almost applauded him. In this end times, "natural death" is definitely a blessing, and it is the hope of many people that cannot be achieved.
Chen Yanming held Nuannuan and bowed to the victim. Then Tang Shunlin put all the long branches on the body, pulled up a lot of dry grass, and lit it with a lighter...
