Chapter 7: Akatsuki's Dilemma
Tick, tick. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Droplets of water kept dripping from the damp rock wall, and Ming Yuan leisurely stretched out his fingers, letting drops of cold water fall on his fingers.
"Now, what's wrong? Answer me. ”
"Do you have such an awareness? Are you mentally prepared for this? The leaders of the resistance who think power is a dirty thing and shy away from it? “
"If we don't unite all forces to end this turmoil sooner, the last bit of strength in the Land of Rain may be lost in the internal fighting."
The faces of the three of Yahiko turned a little pale, and they wanted to refute Ming Yuan's words, but they couldn't refute them.
Ming Yuan chuckled, snapped a drop of water with a flick of his fingers, he stood up and looked into the eyes of the three of them and said, "That's why I'm here, is this reason enough?" ”
Nagato tried to object, but Yahiko reached out to stop him.
After a long silence, Yahiko nodded.
"If that's what you say, then I welcome you and hope that your presence will take us one step closer to saving the Rain Nation."
Ming Yuan clapped his hands with a smile: "Then, I hope the cooperation is pleasant." ”
He turned his head to look around, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "However, before the official start, can you take us around the base in Xiao?" “
"I can probably guess the situation, but I really have to see it with my own eyes."
……
Humidity, no matter where you are, all you can feel is the feeling of humidity.
The rock wall of the karst cave is constantly condensed and then trickled down, and the top of the cave will continue to leak downward, and the karst cave in serious condition is not even inhabitable at all, and in other karst caves that can still get by, the condition is not much better.
Ming Yuan walked into a cave with a bed, felt the moisture in the cave, and then frowned.
The bed was covered with a layer of oilcloth for waterproofing, Ming Yuan pulled up the oil, touched the futon, and unsurprisingly, it felt damp.
"Sleeping in a place like this wouldn't make even a ninja feel comfortable. If you stay in this humid environment for a long time, your physical strength will inevitably decline, and even if you get sick, it is not an accident. ”
"Do you light a fire at night before going to bed? If you make a fire to dry the air, you can at least sleep more comfortably, right? Ming Yuan asked.
Xiao Nan shook his head: "Firewood can be obtained from the nearby mountains, but it is quite humid, and if it is used to make a fire, the smoke is very large, and it will be very conspicuous." ”
"Charcoal doesn't have much smoke and is much easier to use, but it's too ......."
Xiao Nan's face turned red, and Yahiko and Nagamen didn't look good either, with a little shame.
Ming Yuan nodded, not laughing at them.
"It's too expensive, I know."
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, it's normal to see the situation in the Land of Rain. Take me somewhere else. ”
Ming Yuan took out his notepad, wrote a few lines on it, and then continued to follow Xiao Nan and them to other places.
The fishy smell can be smelled from a long distance.
"Where to store food?" Ming Yuan said in an affirmative tone, and then quickened his pace.
"Well, I'll see."
"Dried fish, dried fish, dried fish, well, this piece, it's still dried fish."
"Do you have a stock of vegetables and fruits? What about rice, wheat, or flour or something like that? ”
After looking at the food pantry, Ming Yuan asked.
Xiao Nandao: "There is still a small amount of rice and wheat, which is probably enough for all the members of the organization to eat a meal." It's impossible to have vegetables, fruits, and flour, not to mention the price, and even if there is, it's a limited supply of rations. We only have wild vegetables picked in the mountains, the kind that are very astringent, and there are not many of them. ”
Ming Yuan nodded, wrote a few more lines in the notebook, and asked again, "What about the disease?" ”
"It seems like there are forty people in your organization, right? What about diseases, how many people are sick? Acute diseases such as malaria aside, how many people get anemia and night blindness? ”
Xiao Nan and the three of them were slightly silent, and then Yahiko whispered, "All of them." “
Ming Yuan stroked his forehead and sighed softly.
Nagato said in a sullen voice: "We can't help it, even the rich people in the city have a lot of resources that can't be obtained, vegetables and fruits are now priceless and unmarketable, not to mention medicines, if you go to rob, what is the difference between it and robbers......
Ming Yuan waved his hand: "I know, I know, I don't mean to ridicule or blame you, it's great to be able to persist under such conditions until now." ”
"You've worked so hard for your ideals, there's nothing to be embarrassed about."
He wrote a few words in his notebook summarily: "Food, fuel, medicine." ”
"The members are still able to endure such harsh conditions because it hasn't been too long. But what about a few more months? If there is no hope, I am afraid that people's hearts will gradually disperse. ”
"If we don't solve these problems, let alone expand the size of the organization and unite with other organizations, I'm afraid that after a while, this organization will disappear completely."
Ming Yuan closed the notebook and said to Xiao Nan: "If you can, leave these problems to me to find a way to solve them." ”
"Think of it as a petition for a newcomer to the organization."
Yahiko hesitated for a while, and finally nodded: "Although I am very ashamed, we have no solution to such a thing. If you can, I'll leave this matter to you. ”
Ming Yuan smiled and gestured with a gesture that was okay: "Well, we will all be companions in the future, I said so many ugly things just now, please don't mind, after all, I have a bad personality, so bear with me, bear with me." “
……
It's night.
Ming Yuan emptied his spirit for a long time, and his consciousness sank into the system space.
"Yo, the system, it's been a long time, how are you doing?"
In the pitch-black system space, a light curtain emerged.
"In the past ten years, thanks to your host, I have seen a lot of interesting things. You don't come in often, but I don't feel lonely. “
Ming Yuan smiled and said, "That's good, that's good, then I'll ask you for help unceremoniously?" A penny is hard to beat a hero, I really admire the revolutionary ancestors now, I have to rely on the system to support you, how did they survive the most difficult period? ”
The light curtain of the system was chaotic for a moment, and it said in an uncertain tone: "Probably ...... The end of the destiny and the unity of the people, in the countless years of knowledge of this system, such a group is also unprecedented, if it weren't for the host you told me, I probably wouldn't believe it. ”
"The host has everything you need, and you have plenty of points right now. But considering that it will be exchanged for that thing, and the size of the organization will be further expanded, it will not be a long time to rely on me to provide supplies, so please be prepared. (To be continued.) )
