Chapter 237: The Black Death (2)
"Are you crazy! It's the Black Death! You're going to kill everyone! ”
Gao Han's subsequent shout instantly made everyone's hearts nervous,
Black death!!!
Hearing the words Black Death is really equivalent to uncovering the most tragic death record in human history, and people have heard of it for a long time.
Ma Tao vaguely remembers that when he was in middle school, he talked about the Black Death in class.
The Black Death, also known as the plague, is a virulent infectious disease spread by rat fleas, in the 14th century, when the medicine was underdeveloped, a plague called the "Black Death" raged wildly on the European continent at that time, and successively claimed the lives of nearly 50 million people, which was equivalent to one-third of the total population of Europe at that time, which occurred in the most tragic World War II in human history, and the total number of deaths in the whole Europe accounted for only 5% of its total population.
It is said that the Black Death originated in Central Asia at the earliest, brought back to Europe by the expeditionary crusaders in 1347, starting from Italy-Italy, rapidly spreading epidemics, then spreading through Western Europe, Northern Europe, and finally to Russia-Rus, along the way to killing, corpses everywhere, turning the whole world into a hell on earth, but later, the Black Death that ravaged the European continent suddenly one day it actually "mysteriously disappeared", there were two reasons at that time, one is the most serious fire in the history of London, which burned for 4 days, and the other is because of the "host" Because the number of infected people at that time was too large, and many people survived, these people gradually developed antibodies in their bodies, and the terrible Black Death died out after killing the original host because it could not find the next host.
Now, Ma Tao once again heard the three words that could only be mentioned in the textbook when he was a child, how could he not be dumbfounded, and subconsciously wanted to use a sentence WC to describe his current mood.
I never thought that after I was reborn, I would experience a great purge of mankind, could it be that I escaped death after all? No matter how hard you try, God will do everything you can to take away your cheap life in the end.
"But...... My mom and dad ......"
The roaring engine roared violently, but the No. 02 jeep did not move, and the eyes of the little gold in the car were already surrounded by tears, but he did not do stupid things on impulse, his lips kept twitching, and he said with a pair of hands holding the steering wheel deadly.
"Little Jinzi, you have to be calm now, you must know that there are not only your parents in this city, but also An Ruo's parents, and there is An Ruo in the car, even your parents will never agree to you entering the city so recklessly today!"
In the watch, Gao Han's voice has a tone of non-questioning, but also knows it with emotion and moves with reason.
"What then?"
In the No. 2 car, Xiao Jinzi slammed his steering wheel twice, and An Ruo on the side wanted to comfort him, but now he didn't know what to say.
Originally, I was worried about myself, but now, no one thought that Seoul would be in this situation, if I knew this, An Ruo would not let Xiao Jinzi come back anyway, and now, it is equivalent to putting everyone in danger with them, no matter what you come for, the virus is pervasive, and it is impossible to prevent it at all.
"Even if you enter the city, you must take full protection, otherwise you are playing with everyone's lives"
Gao Han stared at the screen from the screen, and said with a cautious face as the terrifying patients walking at the city gate.
"Sister Han...... How do you know it's the Black Death? Couldn't it be something else? ”
Ma Tao in the No. 1 chariot asked with his watch.
Although the people wandering outside all had purple-black skin like zombies, dragging their weak arms and staggering, it was not certain that it was necessarily the Black Death?
"It was detected by the biological detection system of car No. 3, and the information showed that there were a large number of deadly infectious diseases here, and the source of the virus was the Black Death."
At this time, he and Gao Han, a sister in the car, answered Ma Tao's question.
Still have this feature on vehicle No. 3? How many unknown features are hidden in this Marshall car? But since my sister said so, it shouldn't be wrong.
"Backwards, the farther back the better"
Since the city was like this now, Ma Tao must not take his team to take risks, so he immediately ordered to retreat, and he was the first to turn the front of the No. 1 chariot and drive towards the east of Seoul.
Gao Han drove the No. 3 minibus ambulance and followed.
"Little gold! Hurry up! ”
Don't worry, I'm afraid that this kid will make a mistake, Ma Tao, who was driving the chariot, didn't dare to take his eyes off the jeep of Xiaojinzi behind him for two seconds, and urged him again, really glanced at the road conditions and glanced at the No. 2 car behind him with his eyes, until the No. 2 car, which had been roaring wildly, slammed the rudder and followed in the direction they were driving Ma Tao let out a sigh of relief.
This kid finally didn't make a mistake, once Xiao Jinzi drove his No. 2 car into the city regardless of it, Ma Tao really didn't know what to do, whether to let him go or take the whole team to follow him into danger, this is a problem.
The convoy went all the way to the east, and Ma Tao remembered that if he kept driving east, he would reach a cliff, and below the cliff was the sea, where it should be safer, at least the patients in Seoul who were infected with terrible diseases would not reach that far, and even if they thought, people who were plagued by diseases would not have the physical strength to walk that far.
Along the way, everyone was silent, no one squeaked in the watch, and no one spoke, all of them were thinking because of the appearance of the three words Black Death, at this time everyone's thoughts were different, for Ma Tao, of course, the interests of the team came first, and leaving immediately was naturally the best and safest way, but this idea was impossible because of the factors of Xiaojin and An Ruo, but if you don't leave, staying here for one more minute is tantamount to playing with your own life, which is fatal.
Everyone's hearts Ma Tao can almost figure out a thing or two, The reason why Xiao Jinzi and An Ruo want to enter the city is naturally worried about their families, and similarly, if this place is replaced by that many villages, Ma Tao may also worry about his father's safety, this is a blood connection, it is family affection, and it is also human nature, Ma Tao can understand, when it comes to Gao Han, Su Lanyu and Uncle Guang, they must all advocate leaving, gentlemen do not stand under the dangerous wall, and the appearance of the terrorist virus hundreds of years ago in Seoul is not too much for them, To put it bluntly, it really doesn't matter, it's unfair for them to let them stay at the cost of their lives in this situation, and Ma Tao can't do this, as for the little radish who is only ten years old, I'm afraid he doesn't even know what the Black Death is now.
The three chariots went east, the city wall of Seoul that seemed to be shrouded in a layer of clouds was getting farther and farther away, no one looked back, they were all following Ma Tao mechanically, as for Ma Tao, he didn't know where he should go, just Mu Na's driving in the direction of the east, the poor attack power of the monsters here is almost negligible for the three chariots now, even if they stop there and let them fight, they may not be able to lose much armor until tomorrow morning, Another more important reason is that the engine on their vehicle is no longer the previous basic model, the increase in output power, the increase in power, so that those mechanical insects, bomb turtles or something, can't catch up if you want to, if Ma Tao is not too lazy to take care of these small bits and pieces, a round of secondary artillery can take away all these things, but now Ma Tao is not in the mood to destroy these garbage, and he is too lazy to pick up the dozen or so poor Gs in these garbage bodies, What's more, considering the current situation in Seoul, I don't know if these Noah monsters are also infected with the Black Death virus on their bodies, if possible, Ma Tao doesn't want to touch all the objects in the Seoul area, once he is remembered by the virus, it will be too late to regret it.
About two hours later, the sea always appeared in the line of sight in front of him, Ma Tao stopped with a foot of the brake, causing Gao Han to almost collide with the car behind, and stopped by a fraction, even if the little gold in the car was thinking about things, but the driving skills and proficiency were still there, and he was not caught off guard because of the sudden braking in front.
"What are you going to do?"
Su Lanyu, the co-pilot of the No. 1 tank combat vehicle, saw Ma Tao park the car in the field like this, and knew that he might have made a decision.
"We ...... Do you want to go back? ”
Uncle Guang glanced at them and said;
To tell the truth, Uncle Guang was still very happy when he first left the black market of the Shura Temple, in his opinion, there is no place more insecure than that place, but he never thought that they would actually teleport to an area where the plague is rampant, this is not as good as the Shura Palace, although the danger of the Shura Hall is a dangerous point, but it is the people who are dangerous, be careful and you can always dodge, but this invisible and untouchable plague where to hide, where is it not safe, as long as you are alive, then under its terrorist threat, This panic is simply uncontrollable.
Ma Tao didn't answer the words of the two of them, and stared at the display screen in front of him for a while.
Gao Han and Xiaojin in the No. 3 minibus ambulance and No. 2 jeep in the back had already gotten out of the car, Ma Tao took a deep breath, unfastened the seat belt on his body, turned around and climbed out.
Su Lanyu and Uncle Guang in the car looked at each other, and the two also climbed out of the chariot with Ma Tao.
The location of the three chariots was a few miles away from the coastline to the east, surrounded by green grass, and the view was very open, except for an old poplar tree in the northeast, growing alone in the vast grassland, and I don't know how it opened.
Everyone met in front of the car, even the little radish got out of the car, obviously the child also sensed the depression and tension in the air, and he didn't want to be thrown in the car alone, maybe he was also a little scared.
"That...... I don't need to say anything about the situation."
Glancing at the crowd, Ma Tao pursed the corners of his somewhat chapped mouth and said.
"I want to go back to Seoul, I must go back"
Xiao Jinzi was not polite, and immediately expressed his attitude.
"And me"
An Ruo also spoke immediately.
Not only because this quiet girl cares about her family, but more importantly, where is Xiao Jinzi going, don't look at this girl who usually doesn't like to talk, but she is not a person without ideas, she knows her situation better, in this team, if there is no Xiao Jinzi, it is impossible for anyone to tolerate her, whether it is their residence in Seoul or their future life, Xiao Jin Zi is her guarantee, and will help her block all difficulties and obstacles, if Xiao Jin Zi is not there, everything will be gone.
"Does anyone else want to go into town together?"
Ma Tao looked at the others again as he spoke.
Gao Han didn't squeak, Su Lanyu is not familiar with these people at all, he has only known each other for less than two days in total, if it is Su Lanxi today, I am afraid it is really uncertain, as for Uncle Guang and Xiao Radishes, they are soy sauce, they are very clear, even if they say it, they have no right to speak.
As if expecting this to be the result, Xiao Jinzi didn't even glance at the others, and led An Ruo to turn around and leave.
"You give me back!!"
Seeing that he was so careless and began to play his stubborn temper, Ma Tao shouted.
But Xiao Jinzi didn't listen to Ma Tao's words this time, and still dragged An Ruo's arm without looking back to go back to his No. 2 jeep.
"Didn't you hear me when I asked you to come back!!"
Ma Tao angrily stepped forward two steps forward and held down the door that the kid was about to open and shouted.
"I know there are no your parents in this city! Of course you're not in a hurry! You can leave it alone! But I can't! My parents are in Seoul, can I not be in a hurry! ”
Xiao Jinzi was also angry, and went to pull the car door hard, and roared back at Ma Tao in front of him while pulling his own car door.
This is the first time in the history of Xiao Jinzi to be so angry at Ma Tao, but Ma Tao doesn't blame him, don't look at this kid before he looked like a second ancestor, he didn't listen to his parents, he ran away from home and was rebellious, and at this critical moment, he really wasn't the kind of character who lived secretly.
"Little gold, calm down! Who said I didn't care! I, Ma Tao, will leave you with this today! Even if the whole world gives up on you, in the wind and rain! A mountain of swords and a sea of fire! I'm with you! ”
Ma Tao was also anxious, and pressed the car door tightly to prevent him from opening it.
"You accompany! You accompany! How can you accompany me! What do you accompany! I'm going to die, you know! ”
Xiao Jinzi, who couldn't listen to any words, didn't want to care about these words at all, and wanted to break free of Ma Tao's hand holding the car door, An Ruo on the side was stunned by the scene of the two of them facing Mai Mang, and she didn't expect that Xiao Jinzi, who had always worshiped Ma Tao like an idol, would yell at Ma Tao like this, which was not like Xiao Jinzi's performance at all.
"I'm with !! for my life"
Ma Tao was also in a hurry and rushed there, but he didn't regret it.
Xiao Jinzi was so excited that he was like crazy now, as if Ma Tao didn't let him go to make him give up his parents, as if he had become an enemy, Ma Tao also let go, isn't it just a life! Little Gold has saved himself no less than two or three times, especially the time when Roque, without Little Gold, I am afraid that he would have died in the cold basement, where is the life to stand here.
Suddenly, the world was quiet, Xiao Jinzi looked at Ma Tao with red eyes and tears in his eyes for five or six seconds, and then hugged Ma Tao and cried out with a cry.
This big boy, who was only two years younger than Ma Tao, cried and was sad and helpless.
"If you want to go to the city, at least you must do a good job of comprehensive protection, so our urgent need now is to find a way to protect yourself first, and we must find a way to contact your parents and An Ruo's family as soon as possible."
Ma Tao stretched out his hand like an elder brother and slowly patted Xiao Jinzi's trembling shoulder and said.
"Okay, Brother Tao, I'll listen to your ......"
After convulsing for a while, Xiao Jinzi's inner emotions were almost released, let go of Ma Tao, wiped the tears in his eyes with the sleeve of his clothes, and said.
"But how can you get in touch with them? Watches are useless? ”
An Ruo looked down at the communication watch (S scanner) on his wrist again, and saw that there was still only the only message sent by his brother on it, and said in frustration.
"If you want to get in touch and get the situation inside, you have to have someone go in first, and then keep communicating with us, so that's it."
Ma Tao glanced at the watch in her hand and said.
There are many reasons why they can't use their watch, they don't see it, or they don't have it with them, or they lose the strength to pick it up......
Need one person to go in first? But now Seoul is simply a hell on earth, and there is no need to send people to guard the city gates, so you can imagine what the garrison that manages Seoul has collapsed, and it is needless to say how dangerous it is, Ma Tao said that letting a person enter the city to get in touch is simply equivalent to being sent to death, which is the Black Death! Even if you're a gold-level bounty hunter, you're dead.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes subconsciously converged on one person, who was Ma Tao's sister.
A person who can go into the city to understand the situation is not afraid of the Black Death, isn't Ma Tao's sister just right.
Sister R is a mechanical lifeform, a virus or something, it is of no use to her at all, in other words, Ma Tao's sister is immune to this kind of similar biological and chemical weapon forbidden area.
"Let Sister R go into the city instead of us, Ma Tao, what do you think with this head, is it quite sensitive?"
A hint of a smile appeared on Gao Han's sexy and plump red lips, and sometimes, Gao Han had to admire some of Ma Tao's more comprehensive ideas, after all, not everyone can come up with this kind of best of both worlds, Xiang is that this situation of their team is rare after all, not to mention anything else, even a highly intelligent and deformable robot like Sister R is impossible to appear in the second one, so, some situations seem to be accidental, but in fact they are inevitable, and there are many accidental things, or inevitable.
"Sister R......"
Xiao Jinzi also reacted, and immediately looked at Sister R with blazing eyes, along with An Ruo.
"But my system is set to keep you safe"
Sister R turned her head to look at Ma Tao.
"You can assume that if you don't go, I'll go on my own, and how dangerous is it for me to go?"
Ma Tao immediately changed his method and said.
"Sure to Die"
My sister didn't need to think and make systematic judgments to come to such a final result.
"So, my sister has to do something about it."
Ma Tao laughed after speaking.
My sister's system is set to protect herself.,There are many ways to protect yourself.,Maybe this is the gap between computers and humans.,Reversing thinking can only be done by humans themselves.,To point to a computer to complete reverse thinking.,I'm afraid it's impossible.,If it can be established,,Then Noah doesn't need to launch a global mutiny that destroys humanity.。
The method of contact has been established, the personnel entering the city have also been determined, and the preliminary work is basically these two, and the next thing is to ensure the arrangement.
The disappearance of the Black Death has been a long-standing debate among Western disease experts and historians, and there has been no definitive conclusion until now. However, it is generally believed to be related to the organized collective anti-Black Death operations in various countries of Western Europe at that time. Isolation is the most effective means of these operations.
But Ma Tao vaguely remembered that the discovery of penicillin was a key breakthrough in inhibiting the Black Death, hundreds of years have passed, not to mention how much the current scientific and technological development has been destroyed by Noah, is there really no cure for this ancient plague?
The answer is obviously not, through the information given by my sister's big data system, everyone knows that this terrible disease does have a way to treat it, and it can even be prevented in advance, not only the Black Death, but there are many fierce infectious diseases in this world There are ways to treat them, but the only problem is the source of the drug, this is the point, the world under Noah's control is a pharmaceutical factory, and even some of the drugs left in the market are pitiful, It is estimated that the catastrophe in Seoul is more or less related to the lack of medicine, but this situation is definitely not only in Seoul, but also in other places, but for some reason Seoul is more unlucky, and the catastrophe of a thousand years ago has reappeared.
The vast majority of medicines in later generations have become regenerative cell drugs such as ginseng pills and codonopsis, regenerative cells can only replace the necrotic tissues in the body, and there is nothing to be done about the virus, that is to say, ginseng pills can only continue life, can not cure diseases, only high-level ginseng and elixir will be effective for the body caused by the virus, it just so happens that Ma Tao and they really have eight ginseng medicines, which is equivalent to taking a reassuring pill in everyone's hearts, and there are ginseng medicines in hand. At least you don't have to worry about your own lives and the lives of others.
As for those ordinary packaged medicines before the great destruction, even if you can find them, no one can say whether the medicines that have been in place for nearly a hundred years still have medicinal effects, and I don't know if you will die if you eat them.
"In this way, those who have already contracted the Black Death can only wait to die, so how many people must die in this Seoul?"
Su Lanyu listened to her sister's words about the situation of the Black Death.
