Chapter Ninety-One: Cold to the Bone
I don't know what day it started, the weather in Cold Wind City was like he didn't have a name, and the cold wind blew day and night.
Accompanied by the wind is rain, and wherever the wind blows, the rain falls, and over time, the entire Cold Wind City is filled with wind and rain.
At first, there were a lot of people on the streets, and the city was bustling, but after the cold hit, gradually no one dared to go out.
The vegetable sellers don't buy vegetables anymore, and the vegetable buyers don't go out to buy vegetables, the streets and alleys are deserted, there is no trace of people, and there is no breath of life.
In the long run, people will starve to death, and this is not a cold city, and there is no heating system, so it is difficult for people to survive in such an environment.
Some people are so hungry that they can't stand it, so they will wrap themselves in a lot of clothes and wrap themselves like a big dumpling, so that they dare to go out.
When he arrived at the place where he was doing business, the door was closed, and when he wanted to knock on the door, the shopkeeper also came out to pick him up with a pile of clothes.
When you enter the owner's home, you can also test the fire, not every household has carbon to burn, and the owner of this store just got the carbon.
You must know that in today's environment, carbon is a living material, and people will die without temperature.
The owners of the manors in the city are also collecting carbon on a large scale, and basically whoever has reserves will be "bought" by them.
When the real disaster strikes, these manor owners will tear off all pretenses.
These shops are more or less related to the owner of the estate, so they have carbon to use.
Fresh exotic meat is placed directly on the board, and the refrigerator is not available in this weather.
The whole world is a big refrigerator, and the store took a large piece of alien meat for the visitor, and did not weigh it, but directly said a price.
Fortunately, this store is not very pitiful, and the meat of the beast is very large, and the money is not outrageous.
After shopping, the man left the grocery store and went all the way back feeling like he had walked in hell.
It's so cold.
At first, these transactions went on like this, and they were fairly stable.
But as time goes by, the weather gets colder and colder, and the temperature in this world seems to be dropping all the time.
The people who live here are like stepping into a bottomless abyss.
The cold eats away at people.
No one dared to go out anymore, and there were ice sculptures standing on the street, which were sealed in the ice shell.
They are all people who go out to forage for food, but they are all lost in the outside world.
The shopkeepers were also afraid to go out, and their food sources were cut off.
When you walk into a store, you will be rejected, one after another, every family.
I knew that when I opened a grain store again, there were two corpses lying inside, which belonged to the husband and wife of the shopkeeper, and the blood had already condensed, and the inside of the house was colder than the outside.
Seeing this, a layer of frost covered the hearts of the people, and he gently closed the door and left silently.
This prosperity will eventually be shattered, perhaps it should be said that there is no prosperity in the first place, but it is just wishful thinking of ignorant people.
No one wants to care about them who are already half-dead.
The cold under the sky is nothing more than that, and people are more afraid of the cold than the external cold.
This man walked aimlessly on the main road, which is usually full of vehicles coming and going.
The horns were ringing, and the sidewalks were supposed to be crowded with people, but now it's different, there is no one anymore.
The cold turned the man into a demon, and the man walked on the road in the rain, gradually stiffening and freezing here.
He may have lost the remaining light in his heart to die in the bitter cold.
For a while, people here couldn't find food, and some people were so hungry that they could not do anything.
Is there nothing to eat, is there really nothing to eat? The demons lurking in the crowd set their sights on the homes that were nested under the covers.
This is how the tragedy happened, the family died without a sound, and their flesh and blood were gone.
The evil man licked the blood from the corner of his mouth and targeted the upstairs family.
And just like that, as time went on, fewer and fewer people were alive in the building.
Until the last one, he was not found to be the only family in this building.
On a silent night, which family has lost a few fresh lives.
The building was empty, and the demon had to target a nearby building.
It wasn't until a group of men in raincoats came to the building that they discovered his crime and executed him on the spot, thus ending the rest of his sinful life.
These people are all cultivators, yes, only cultivators in this world are not afraid of the cold.
Many cultivators couldn't believe everything they saw, the blood stains in every house, the blood-licking demons lying on the ground.
He may never have imagined in his life that someone would come here, someone would bring them food and drink.
These cultivators belong to the Salvation Society, a budding organization that publicizes that it stands in the shoes of ordinary people and does things for ordinary people.
Many people didn't believe it, and it wasn't until these Salvation Society cultivators distributed food from house to house that they understood at this moment that ordinary people also had a foothold in this world.
These members of The Salvation Society who distribute food have truly seen human suffering and are more sympathetic to the Salvation Society's philosophy.
How did cultivators come about, ordinary people cultivated, and without ordinary people, there would be no successor cultivators.
Those big organizations are short-sighted and only focus on temporary interests, and in the long run, no ordinary people will stand on the side of those big organizations.
Ordinary people are not stupid, they all know that those are good for themselves, in fact, ordinary people have been choosing the world, but many times, there is no organization that can represent their willingness.
As now, the Salvation Society can stand up, and people will naturally stand on the side of the Salvation Society.
The world has its own system of balance, although resources are concentrated in the hands of certain individuals.
But these individuals can't sit still without these resources.
There are many smart people, and families with good family conditions are more likely to have smart people.
But all are mortals, all are small clever, and those with great wisdom are still more likely to come out among the common people.
Although he has no name, no talent, and no power, he has a pair of discerning eyes to see the world.
This is one of the reasons why the Salvation Society was able to appear.
The walls of Coldwind City are very long and very high, and it is not easy to complete such a huge project in such a short period of time, which is truly a wonder.
But the people did it, and it is said that the people at that time realized the danger and gathered the strength of the whole city to build the wall.
The people of that time were united, and each one had a vision to protect their families.
Most of the people in the castle were involved in the project, and it can be said that the people who built the castle wall have been able to survive until now.
However, when people get used to it, they change, and after some people enjoy it, they begin to fear death.
Their approach was very simple, hire powerful cultivators and form a private army.
So there was inevitably some conflict, and then it evolved into everyone wanting to be the boss.
People who don't want to be bosses bear the brunt of these conflicts because they are easy to bully, because they are different.
As a result, more ambitions were brewing, just like a powerful cultivator who might be willing to live under the powerless manor lord.
Ambitions are brewing, and these people have turned the city into a miasma.
Just like now, the sergeants guarding the walls have been divided into many factions.
Some are under Wang Cheng, some are the organizers of the manor, some are working for certain organizations, and some represent ordinary people in private.
The treatment of the sergeants supported by Wang Cheng is naturally excellent, and the equipment and diet are not bad at all, which is considered to be the best here.
Wang Cheng is a king, and his influence is there, and there are naturally many people who follow him.
The sergeants under the manor lord can be said to be the richest, and these manor lords are strong, and they usually compete in equipment and food treatment.
So these sergeants are treated very well.
The sergeants of some of the organizational forces are also doing well.
Only those sergeants who are willing to go forward and speak for ordinary people use the oldest weapons and eat the worst food.
But they still stood there, unwavering, like trees on the cliff of a lonely mountain.
Rooted in rocks, grown in wind and frost.
These people are a formidable force that will make a difference in time.
However, now they are not alone, Lu Shan decided to take over this army, he may not lead the troops to fight, but he does not need to do this.
In ancient times, the emperor may not have led troops better than a general, all he wanted was to help these sincere people.
As for the reason, they're worth it.
They are the most deserving group of people, and because of the existence of these sincere people, the human race can save the day again and again.
It is with them that the human race can grow, and this has been the case since ancient times.
In a secret research room, a group of researchers are busy preparing for some tests.
The project manager stood in front of a screen, looking nervously at the screen.
It was a crystal, and if Lu Shan could immediately recognize it here, these crystals were part of the huge crystals that he had encountered in the wasteland.
The crystal was only the size of a fist, nowhere near the massive crystal in the wasteland.
After a while, some devices are activated, and the crystals glow dimly, followed by data acquisition.
After the acquisition is complete, the device ceases to function and the crystals no longer glow.
A researcher handed over a copy of the document, and the project manager read it, and the expression on his face gradually became more and more exciting.
First it was a surprise, then it was calm, then it was a frown, then it was furrowed, and then it was a long contemplation.
He stood in the distance for a long time, his eyes did not move, he must have stared at the report, and the researchers did not disturb him.
It wasn't until he felt a little numb in his leg that he sat down and asked, "Can the problem be solved?" ”
The researcher was very happy and replied, "Yes, we have trained enough new people during this time, and some new people have a lot of good ideas, and we need to have more experience than the last time." ”
Last time, it was naturally the time when I researched the robot cultivation method.
"Launch the High-Energy Warframe Program."
After some time, a crystal was loaded into the power furnace, and the armor glowed with a faint light, and it was successfully activated.
