Chapter 47 The Tragedy at Gaojia Fishing Village
"Master, where are we going next?" Xiao Huang asked.
Mu Jiu took out his cell phone from his pocket, opened the city map and put it on the table for everyone to see.
“The original plan was to go to the next shopping mall to collect daily necessities.
However, judging from the current road traffic conditions, it will probably be difficult to proceed as planned.
It's really difficult and time-consuming to travel across the city with two wheels...
Since it is not convenient to walk too far, let's just sweep northwards from the southern suburbs of the city where we are now.
Collect as much available supplies as possible and make long-term plans for the future.
But we have to speed up. If other survivors get there first, we will be in a passive position."
Mu Jiu was telling the truth.
Even if the horrific apocalypse wiped out 90% of the world's population, only 10% would remain.
But in the future, because humans have completely lost the conditions for production, all existing daily necessities will become non-renewable resources.
The more you use, the less it is, and when it’s used up, there’s none left.
It is foreseeable how many years these supplies can sustain people.
On the one hand, there is the issue of storage time, and on the other hand, there is the issue of the quantity of materials.
Regular food and medicine can only be stored for about three years at most, and basic daily necessities rarely last more than five years.
In short, the further you go, the harder it will be to survive!
Mu Jiu has an unlimited fresh-keeping warehouse, so no matter how much supplies she collects, they will not expire or be wasted.
As for the quantity of supplies, all the survivors are trying their best to get more.
Therefore, the survivors will quickly unite and set up bases in ancestral halls, temples, Taoist temples, etc.
Taking the base as the origin, they circled the surrounding area and raided for supplies.
In the previous life, the base had experienced a few years of prosperity and glory.
After all, if ordinary people want to survive in the horrific apocalypse, they simply cannot leave the base, otherwise they would think their lives are too long.
Cities and rural areas were divided into many parts by various large and small temples and Taoist temples, which operated and expanded independently.
This is also because of the special attributes of temples and Taoist temples.
In the first two years of the apocalypse, primary monsters could not get close at all, which reduced humans' awareness of counterattacking and killing monsters.
He thought he could keep a clear distance from the weirdness and keep peace with both sides, so he hid in the base and kept to himself.
But the weird things are constantly devouring each other and evolving, the big eating the small, the many eating the few, the strong eating the weak, thus making the level of the weird things higher and higher, just like raising a Gu.
This eventually led to a strange energy that exceeded the limits of the defenses of temples, Taoist temples, etc., and marked the end of mankind.
However, in this terrifying apocalypse, no one can remain immune!
Mu Jiu, who has lived a new life, is unwilling to die as tragically as in his previous life, letting mankind surrender to the weirdness again.
So she was prepared to recruit talents from the very beginning.
Find a group of like-minded people and build a team that becomes braver and stronger with each battle.
Collect more food and supplies, kill more monsters, get more monster beads, become a stronger warrior, and fight the monsters to the end.
Maybe if I'm lucky, I can find a way out!
"Master, if we don't go to the shopping mall in the north of the city, where should we go next?" Xiao Huang asked, and the problem returned to the starting point again.
No matter how far or near, there must be a specific place.
Before Mu Jiu could speak, Ding Dang spoke first in a low voice:
"The Gaojia Village next door to us is also a large-scale fish farming operation, and they mainly breed various fish.
Do you want to collect fish? If so, I can take you there!
I used to go there with my parents to deliver meat. They had a lot of big fish ponds.”
When they heard about fish, almost everyone's eyes lit up. There was no one present who didn't like eating fish! Mu Jiu was especially impressed!
Although I had bought some at the warehouse supermarket before, the quantity was limited and I didn't dare to eat them freely.
But if you are a large-scale breeder... you can easily collect tens of thousands of them!
Just thinking about it made the group of people almost drool with excitement.
It seems as if I can already smell the aroma of grilled fish, fried fish, stewed fish, stir-fried fish, pickled fish, boiled fish, braised fish, sweet and sour fish, etc.!
"Okay, then let's go to Gaojia Village that Dingdang mentioned to collect fish!" Mu Jiu made the decision directly.
Ding Dang can't ride a two-wheeled bicycle or a scooter because no one has ever taught her.
Mu Jiu found a children's bicycle with two small training wheels from the space and gave it to her so that she could slowly adapt to it.
The four people continued walking south, that is, towards the outskirts of the city, for about two kilometers, and saw the Gaojia Village described by Ding Dang!
Walking from the village entrance, there are two long rows of two-story buildings on both sides of the road. These are the homesteads built by local residents after they migrated.
At the end of the cement road are the endless gridded fish ponds of varying sizes!
Everyone estimated that the fish pond was no less than a hundred acres.
However, the death rate in this village is even worse than that in Wangjia Village.
The only road leading into the village was blocked by corpses of all sizes, making it impossible to even walk...
Thousands of corpses were lying densely on a short stretch of road in the fishing village.
On the night of the end of the world, it seemed that some grand event was being held in this place.
In the wild parking lot across the street alone, there were dozens of small cars and several buses carrying thirty or forty people.
Not to mention the pedal tricycles, electric scooters and bicycles scattered all over the roadside.
Before entering the village, Mu Jiu gave everyone a medical mask and a pair of rain boots of their respective sizes.
So many corpses have been exposed to high temperatures for almost two days, and the stench is obvious.
Flies and mosquitoes swirl and cheer around the corpses, and maggots have already grown on many of the corpses...
In short, walking along this stretch of cement road is absolutely devastating to the mind of a normal person! It is a complete hell on earth.
But for Mu Jiu, who had already experienced the end of the world once, the tragedy here was not the worst.
A basic ghost murder would at least leave the body intact. At most, it would tear the soul into pieces like the female ghost in white gauze did last night.
But the advanced and weird killings in the middle and late stages of the apocalypse are different. Their Horcruxes can cut a person into eighty pieces.
Every time a battle ends, only body parts of the dead are left, and it is difficult to even piece together a complete body...
Mu Jiu died like that in his previous life, and there was no one to collect his body.
Thinking of this, Mu Jiu took out an earth spirit talisman from the space.
"Wait for me for a moment."
Mu Jiu asked everyone to stay where they were, and he went forward alone, using all his strength to activate his earth-based abilities.
She broke the plain cement pavement that was originally located under the corpse on this road into gravel.
Let the body sink and merge with the cement and gravel to form a roughly horizontal state.
Then he summoned soil from all directions and tamped it on the large mixture of corpses and cement and gravel in front of him.
In just ten minutes, Mu Jiu had renovated the path.
The reason she dared to use her supernatural powers so unscrupulously was because she relied on the talisman paper, and it was not her who did the work.
If her own ability was only the second-level earth element, it would probably take her half a day to break up the cement on this road.
Then I have to break it into pieces, restore my strength, and have a meal of rice.
After finishing everything in front of him, Mu Jiu dusted himself off, turned around and waved for everyone to follow!
The three people waiting at the village entrance were already stunned. Boss Mu was too strong!
If this happened before the end of the world, there would be no need for an engineering team. Just having Boss Mu alone would be enough!
