Chapter 163: Misfortune does not go alone
Chapter 163 Disaster is not a single line
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Well, I didn't come up with it.
Whether it is the base area behind the anti-Japanese enemy, the guerrillas, or the forest sea snow field, the Long March, or whatever, I have never heard of a person with more than 100 children who can live a good life under the coercion of countless enemies. You must know that if nothing else, the eating, drinking and lazing of more than 100 people is a big problem. Even if you can find a source of food as abundant outside, who can guarantee that you won't be spied on and robbed?
With Sarah's strength alone, killing her can't resist those malicious shadows.
Come to think of it, I ended up with a solution that wasn't the way out for Sarah.
In fact, it's very simple, why does she have to lead her people to grow and grow in an environment surrounded by enemies? Why do all children have to be confined to one place? The children are of different ages, some are older and some are younger; This mysterious cave or the place near the station chosen by Lady Egerine is used as a settlement, leaving the smaller children with weak survival skills there, and then the older ones following Sarah. It's like ants moving, growing this weak population little by little. Every child who is a little older has to leave the resettlement site to go out to work, so that there is no need to worry about the erosion of peace and ease.
Although it is impossible to guarantee the safety of every child in this case, at least the Night Elves will not have much problem reproducing. As long as the Blue Feather Clan will not abandon those young children, as long as the Blue Feather Clan does not think about completely annexing the Night Elves. Then there must be hope.
Of course, I'm sure this middle-of-the-road approach isn't actually the best. But for now, no one knows what the situation is like out there. Maybe there will be a new turn for the better after going out.
And in my mind, I vaguely have another thought. Of course, now is not the time to give that an account. I also have to wait until I go out and think about it carefully.
My suggestion was very difficult for Sarah, who knew that my method was not excellent. This made Sarah a little disappointed in me, but of course she also knew that it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. The current situation of the Night Elves is indeed too bad, and there is nothing good to think of.
Sighing helplessly, Sarah saluted me very seriously: "Xu Yu, thank you." Although your suggestion did not surprise me, I would like to thank you for your thoughtful thinking and reply. Night elves are never attached to any race, and even if they sacrifice everything, they must face any hardships and dangers alone. Whether you rely on this damn cave or the Blue Feather Clan, in the end, you can only make the Night Elves a waste that doesn't know how to struggle. This is definitely not what Sarah wants. You say that Sarah can't support these more than 100 children on her own, but Sarah plans to give it a try. As long as there is a glimmer of life, Sarah will never give up hope of rebuilding her race. ”
"Hey! You say that......" Shaking my head, I marveled at Sarah's perseverance but couldn't understand her impulsiveness.
Perhaps in a general sense, Sarah's choice is indeed the noblest and most revered. But as far as the truth goes, her approach can only cause more harm to the children. Even if the Night Elves could rebuild, how many of these poor children would be left? Sarah's emphasis on race over a child's life is admirable but doesn't move me. Even if there has been such a noble situation in the history of China, I cannot accept this kind of wanton behavior at the expense of human life.
Of course, it can't be said that Sarah is wrong. It's just that the current situation is too difficult. If I can, I would like to help Sarah fulfill her wish more smoothly.
Lady Egerine on the side had not said a word, and the situation she had to face was naturally much easier than Sarah's. Although the clan is also scarce, the fact that they can fly and that all of them are young and strong is enough for Lady Igerine to rebuild the Blue Feather Clan in a very short period of time. Moreover, Sarah's wariness of the Blue Feather Clan also prevented Lady Egerine from saying anything to help Sarah at this time. Even if she's not so ruthless.
After a long silence, Lady Egerine finally made only one promise to Sarah: "Sarah, whenever you need the help of the Blue Feather Clan." You can come to me anytime. The Blue Feather Clan will definitely do their best to help you as they do now, absolutely without any purpose. ”
"I know Lady Ageline. I just ......" With tears in her eyes, Sarah shook her head and choked.
Seeing the two of them like this. I could only laugh and say, "Alright, alright!" The thunderstorm beast tide is still more than half a month away, and it's too early to say anything. Maybe you'll be lucky when you go out, so don't talk about everything now. Whether it's the Blue Feather Clan or the Night Elf Clan, you're all friends, aren't you? If it's too raw, it's too emotional. ”
"No, I ......"
Sarah was about to explain, when suddenly something changed.
The inexplicable earth slowly trembled, and the rumbling sound was terrifying from far and near. In our astonished gaze, the entire bowl-shaped basin suddenly trembled violently. It was as if there was an earthquake, and the earth, the houses, and the towering statues were jolting. As the shaking became more and more violent, countless dust and rubble fell above the head like rain. The ground simply did not stand, and the countless stones were quickly overturned like dishes stir-fried in a pot, rolling forward and then behind......
We could barely stand on our bodies, and the space where we trembled violently made it impossible to maintain our center of gravity. Under our ugly faces, the frightened screams of children could be heard not far away. Looking at it again, more than a dozen Blue Feather clansmen stumbled into the air, and fell down inexplicably.
"What's going on? What happened! Screaming in alarm, Sarah barely held on to the goblin sculpture's instep and cursed.
"I don't know, maybe it's an earthquake." Gritting my teeth, I tried to stand up straight, careful to avoid the sharp debris falling from the air. Sleepy-eyed Ding Ding opened her eyes in a daze, only to be choked by the dust that rolled up, and I was busy holding her in my hands, but I was anxious to know why Ding Ding had been very sleepy since returning to the Realm. Then, before I could figure it out, I heard a crisp click. Looking up, it turned out that the originally sturdy goblin statue had cracked more than a dozen dense cracks, and it was in danger of falling at any time.
"Let's go, we can't stay here! Take all the clansmen and leave this hellish place and go into the cave! I shouted to Sarah and Lady Egerine, and at the same time I hurried towards the opening of the cave. As we found out just now, the so-called earthquake only occurred in this semicircular space under our feet, but the dark hole in the distance did not even tremble at all. If I don't know where to hide, I'll have to die. At the same time, I finally understood why there was no creature here, so I guess I expected this situation and ran away in advance. Damn it! Why is it happening at this very moment of our arrival?
In a hurry, I ran quickly, grabbed two panicked children on the side of the road, grabbed them in the armpit and ran outside.
The further I went, the smaller the amplitude of the earthquake became. When I stepped up the steps and entered the cave, there was no shaking at all. Putting the two children down, I looked down and saw that the whole city had become a mess. Countless houses are collapsing, and the originally neat ground is splitting and uplifting, as if magma is about to erupt. At my feet, Sarah was also running with her two children in her arms, while the Blue Feather people, led by Lady Egerine, had inexplicably lost the ability to fly, and only ran on the ground with unskilled steps. They also know how to protect their children, and they also hold one and do not give up.
The earthquake became more and more violent, and the huge goblin statue that fell with a bang almost smashed several night elf children into minced meat. However, even if he was not stoned to death, a poor child was brutally smashed off his calf. If I hadn't run over in time to get rid of the stone he was pressing, I'm afraid the consequences would have been even more serious.
After a busy day, I was sweating profusely and finally brought all the children back to the passage. Let Sarah count them, and none of them will be missing. However, many were injured, and two were seriously injured, and the sudden danger made the children completely unprepared, and they did not take any food. Now we stand empty-handed at the mouth of the cave and look at the hellish scene below, crying without tears and dying of anger.
The food is gone, the water is gone, what happens next?
The children cried non-stop, and a few fragile Blue Feather Clansmen also covered their faces weakly and cried bitterly. The rest of the people were all covered with gloom, and Sarah was trembling and could barely stand. The damn earthquake under my feet didn't seem to end, and the violent tremors didn't even want to stop.
In this case, who would dare to go inside and get food and water out?
Rolling up her sleeves, Sarah was about to go down without saying a word. Grabbed by me, she glared at me expressionlessly, then broke free and walked down without hesitation.
With a bang, a house on the side of the road collapsed. The flat shot of the wall almost hit Sarah, but Sarah continued to walk forward without looking back.
The gray dust turned the entire basin into a miasma, and the violent earthquake made it even more difficult to stand in it. But in order to survive, Sarah can only desperately go inside and find everything she can eat and drink. At the scene, the Blue Feather people were inexplicably blocked in their ability to fly, and they were killed by letting them use their feet to find food in danger. If I don't count it, Sarah is really the only one who can go in and have an adventure.
But how could I not go? I can't afford to buy food for Sarah's life!
With a serious expression asking Lady Egerine to take care of the panicked children, I gritted my teeth and strode into the hellish basin. (To be continued......)
