Lu Xingtang was very pleased to see that the survivors were fighting with great enthusiasm but not satisfied, yet they were very restrained.
"Base Commander? Look, he's actually watching us from the window. He's seriously injured. Let's get him and the deputy back to rest. Those who haven't taken action, hurry up and don't attack one at a time. There are so many of us, and there are also many arsonists. Let's split up and take turns to take revenge. Don't let the base commander continue to watch. Let's end this quickly!"
Everyone turned around and saw Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo being supported by someone standing in front of the window looking at them. They immediately shouted, "Base Commander, Deputy Base Commander, your injuries are serious. Go back to the house and rest. We will punish the person who set the mountain on fire!"
Those who were not punished immediately separated and took revenge in their own way, taking turns, fearing that Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo would stay outside for too long, resulting in serious injuries. A longer recuperation time would only make them more painful. However, everyone was very ruthless. They were all angry at the arsonists who caused their base commander and deputy base commander to be seriously injured and were still not at ease. They had to hold on to see them punished.
When Lu Xingtang heard everyone's concern, he immediately said that they would go back to rest. But the next moment, after seeing the ruthlessness of the person who attacked, he fell silent and asked someone to help them back to the room.
After returning to the room, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo immediately steadied themselves and thanked the classmates who supported them, "Thank you for your hard work, let's go to the space to work!" There was a lot of work that needed them to do in the space, and with two helpers, Lu Xingtang didn't want to miss it.
Entering the space, as they worked in the black soil, the female classmate thought of the tragic scene just now: "You two are very popular among the people. If you two started a rebellion in ancient times, you would definitely have many people following you!"
"Everyone is trying to survive, and Tangtang and Amo are generous, so everyone is willing to trust and support them. On the contrary, if Tangtang and Amo didn't have so many supplies and didn't treat them well, do you think they would support and respect them so much? In the end times, we should not imagine human nature to be too beautiful!" The male classmate knocked on the female classmate's head and said.
The female classmate said, "I understand. I never had any expectations of human nature. We have suffered a lot, but we are lucky to have met Tangtang and A-Mo, as well as Su Cheng, Hu Li, Luan Yuqing and others. If it weren't for them, we would have died in the viciousness of human nature long ago!"
Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo did not participate in what the two said, and silently did their own work.
Su Cheng led the arsonists throughout the base to accept punishment from everyone. There were too many people in the base, and it took them a full seven days to punish all 2.3 million people in the base. Now this group of people was dying. In order to save their lives, he wasted a lot of special medicines and Huoxiang Zhengqi water. If they died so quickly, there would be no way to punish everyone in the base.
Seeing that they were only breathing their last breath and there was not a single piece of good flesh on their bodies, Su Cheng asked the security personnel to drag them out of the base, take sharp knives and kill them, and bury the bodies away from the water source. They had already suffered from polluted water sources and did not want to suffer again.
After Lu Xingtang learned about their fate from Su Cheng, he said, "Su Cheng, you did a great job, that's it! Go into the space and have a good rest!" Then he sent Su Cheng into the space. They prepared a sumptuous meal for Su Cheng and also prepared bath water so that Su Cheng could relieve his fatigue and have a good meal.
After eating and drinking his fill, Su Cheng sat on the massage chair, enjoying himself: "Tangtang, because of this fire, our base has used up half of its water resources this time. If the extreme heat lasts too long, we probably won't be able to sustain it!" The base itself consumes a lot of water, and everyone has been very frugal, but the temperature is too high, so even if we save, the effect is not very obvious.
Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo said, "Don't worry, there's plenty of water stored in the space. Although a lot of it was used to put out the fire, it should be enough to sustain the base! We have 34 people and can use all the supplies in the space. We don't have to compete with the survivors for supplies. We just have to do some superficial work."
Su Cheng understood: "I have sent people to pump back all the water from the reservoir in the neighboring county. The dirty water is used in the plantations and farms. There is no waste! The clean water is placed in the pond!"
The fire incident came to an end, but because of this fire, everyone was very vigilant, especially the soldiers. Their injuries had not yet healed, and 5,000 people were sent out on patrol every day to prevent the fire from happening again. Lu Xingtang also asked Su Cheng to stop 5,000 people and patrol with the soldiers. For the safety of the base, the survivors of the base diligently patrolled with the soldiers to reduce the burden and pressure on each other.
In a blink of an eye, some time passed, and the "injuries" on Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo's bodies gradually healed. They had left home and went to the office building, appearing every day with battle-damaged makeup. The management staff felt very distressed and moved to see them like this, and they handled the affairs of the base more and more attentively.
On this day, Lu Xingtang looked at the thermometer and found that the originally fixed high temperature of 68 degrees had suddenly risen by 5 degrees to 73 degrees. The surface temperature had reached 81 degrees. The survivors of the base began to wail. The weather was too extreme and there was no way to survive. That morning, some people suffered from heat stroke. It was so severe that they died before they were sent to the base hospital!
Then came the second, third... hundreds of survivors who died of heat stroke. By the end of the day, about 268 survivors died, all of them from heat stroke.
Lu Xingtang's mood became very heavy. "Should we move the survivors to the underground city? The temperature in the underground city is also very high, but it is much better than on the ground! The temperature in the underground city hovers around 46 degrees, and today it rose to 50 degrees."
They are now in charge of the Lancheng base and cannot act as willfully as before. 2.3 million lives are entrusted to them.
Ji Yanmo: "The underground city was built specifically for survivors to live in. It was originally intended for people to enter when a major natural disaster occurs and there's no escape! The temperature is too high now. If we don't evacuate, more survivors will die from heat stroke! Arrange for the transfer of personnel now, immediately!"
Lu Xingtang called an immediate meeting of management and instructed everyone to move the survivors. Ji Yanmo went to the broadcast room and said, "Attention all survivors of the base. I'm Ji Yanmo. Please pack your bags and prepare to go downstairs immediately. The base will arrange for someone to come and take you to the dungeon. We will move in and stay there until the extreme heat ends!"
