Chapter 512: Shi Jiayu
It's just that at this time, in this fairyland on earth, there is no traffic at all, the smell of chickens and dogs, there is a dead silence all around, there is no trace of life in the air, Li Duo keenly feels that the layer of dead air that permeates the sky.
"Here?"
Li Duo asked in some surprise.
"This is our village, Shi Jiayu."
Li Duo saved his life just now, which has already made Kuwa closer to him, and he said to Li Duo enthusiastically: "On weekdays, my father and I hunt at the bottom of the mountain, only at the beginning of the month and the end of the month come up to send some food to the villagers." ”
The shirtless man came to Li Duo, his expression was complicated, and he arched his hand at Li Duo: "Stranger, thank you for your kindness, I blamed you before, and now I take back my previous words, you are a real man!" ”
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Shi Dali, because I am the boss in the family, everyone calls me Shi Dalang, I am a few years older than you, if you don't dislike it, just call my brother!"
Immediately, he lowered his head and patted Kuwa's head heavily: "Call him uncle in the future, do you hear it!" ”
Thinking that this melon baby is called Brother Li Duo and took advantage of himself for no reason, Shi Dali's heart was full of irrepressible anger.
"Brother Shi!"
Li Duo didn't have any entanglement in the title, he smiled at Shi Dali and pointed at himself: "Li Duo." ”
Under the leadership of Shi Dali, the group of three people walked along a sheep intestine path towards the depths of the clouds.
"Anyway, who are those people chasing you, I think they have good strength, and they still have the body of a monster, it's really weird!"
Shi Dali said as he looked at Li Duo with a puzzled face, obviously also shocked by the appearance of Zhong Xi and the others.
Monster?
Li Duo laughed dumbly, the village they live in is isolated from the world, and it is not certain whether they can be connected to electricity, let alone a TV, thinking that Shi Dali doesn't know what is going on outside, and they don't know that there is a zombie, maybe for them, Journey to the West is the only literary work they can come into contact with.
"That's not a monster, it's a zombie."
Li Duo corrected: "The outside world has collapsed, warlords are fighting in various places, and there are many factions, and those who are chasing me are the local forces that occupy Longjiang City, and those with zombie limbs are transformed cyborgs!" ”
Shi Dali listened in the clouds, full of confusion, what zombies, what cyborgs...... He didn't even understand a word, he just listened to Li Duo's meaning, anyway, these people are not good people.
"I see! These villains, like Township Chief Cui, are all bad people! ”
Kuwa stood aside innocently, waving her little fists, and said angrily.
"Bitter baby!"
Shi Dali glared at him viciously, obviously blaming him for saying too much, he diverted the topic and asked Li Duo: "These big ants should be hibernating in winter, and you woke them up?" ”
"This ...... I'm really sorry to blame me for not seeing that it was an ant nest, so I broke in and caused you trouble......"
Li Duo said apologetically.
"What to apologize for! Those things can't climb up, as long as they are here, they are absolutely safe! ”
Shi Dali waved his hand loudly, and he said to Li Duo: "Brother Li Duo, you will stay here for two days, and when they find food to fill their stomachs, they will go back to the nest again!" ”
Shi Dali obviously knows the habits of big water ants very well, and sure enough, Li Duo looked around, and the originally dense big water ants had long since disappeared, and he couldn't even see one!
Li Duo's heart secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he was slightly anxious, he had not heard from him for so long, I was afraid that Ling Xue and they were all crazy! I don't know how they are doing in Qingniu Town.
With a full heart, the group walked out of the woods, and Li Duo looked up and saw a dilapidated village.
This village is even more dilapidated than the other towns in the mountains, with houses scattered in the open space in front of them, extremely rudimentary, and the materials used are nothing more than yellow mud and stone.
Such a house, not to mention living people, I am afraid that even the wind and rain will not be able to cover it, looking at the dilapidated scene in front of him, Li Duo sighed secretly in his heart.
"Brother Shi, I remember that a long time ago, the state had a policy, targeted poverty alleviation, implemented to households, according to reason, your village should have moved out, no matter how bad it is, you should also repair the road and build a new house! Did you climb down from the cliff before? ”
"There is a policy, but the king of Hades is good, the little ghost is difficult, and the money allocated is exploited layer by layer to the bottom, and it is almost deducted, and in the end there are tens of thousands left, and they are all put into the pocket by Township Chief Cui, where is our share!"
Shi Dali snorted coldly, and as he walked, he kept complaining to Li Duo: "I am the only one in the village who has finished junior high school, and everyone wrote the Book of Ten Thousand People and entrusted me to go to the province to fight a lawsuit, but before I reached Lincheng, I was intercepted and sent to a mental hospital, and I was released after being locked up for more than half a year." ”
Shi Dali pointed to his forehead, and below his hairline, there was a deep scar that could be seen to the bone: "This is what those people beat, these bastards, there is no good thing!" ”
Li Duo was silent, that's right, this world is so dark, all kinds of organ systems are a nest of snakes and rats, colluding with each other, and when they crack down on corruption, they will be a little more restrained, and when the rumors have passed, they will still be corrupt and take bribes.
Sometimes, Li Duo even has a crazy thought, such a world is better than being destroyed.
"Brother Shi, everything is over, don't think about it anymore."
Li Duo said with relief.
Shi Dali still snorted indignantly, and he said to Li Duo: "Brother Li Duo, so I don't believe in outsiders at all, people outside are not as simple as our mountain people, but you are not among them, you are a real man!" ”
At this time, the three of them had already walked into the village, and the village was quiet, not to mention the human figures, and they didn't even hear the roosters and dogs barking.
"Brother Shi, what about the people in the village?"
Li Duo asked in surprise.
"They're almost all dead."
Shi Dali was silent for a moment, and finally sighed: "There is a lack of medical treatment, and if you get sick, there is only one way to die." ”
Before the end of the world, there was a very famous topic circulating on the Internet, how long can human beings survive without electricity and medicine?
It turns out that both are necessary conditions for the survival of human society, and without electricity, civilization will cease to exist, but without medicine, even survival has become a problem.
There are dozens of new graves in the cemetery at the entrance of the village, some of which are apparently already in existence for months, and the withered yellow artemisia grass is all over them, looking extremely desolate and sad.
At this time, from the courtyards everywhere, more than a dozen figures came out one after another.
These people are all old people and children, there is no young man at all, when the disaster just came, the villagers did not know the power of zombies and evolution beasts, the young people went out to hunt as usual, but in the end, no one came back.
Only an evolutionary like Shi Dali could survive in the forest outside, and if it weren't for him coming back every month to deliver some food, these old, weak, sick and disabled people in the village would not have survived at all.
"Dali, why are you back? Who is he? ”
A trembling old man walked over, he looked at Li Duo, his expression was full of vigilance.
"Something happened down there, come up and stay for two days."
Shi Dali greeted the old man enthusiastically, he pointed at Li Duo and said: "This is Li Duo's brother, from outside the mountain, you don't have to be afraid, he is not a bad person." ”
Shi Dali made a guarantee, and the faces of the people around him gradually softened, although they couldn't say how close they were, but they weren't as hostile as they were just now.
For them, Li Duo understands them very well, in fact, they are all afraid of being pitted, with the existence of people like Township Chief Cui, these simple villagers have to close themselves tightly.
"Hello uncle! When I first came to the precious land, there was a lot of trouble! ”
Li Duo said politely.
"Since it's a strong friend, I didn't say it!"
The old man seemed very polite, but after he finished talking to Li Duo, he pulled Shi Dali again, and came to the side, muttering something while keeping looking at Li Duo.
Li Duo secretly smiled bitterly, he ignored the suspicious old man, and called the bitter baby over.
"Kuwa, there is only one way down the mountain?"
Li Duo had already had a lot of confusion about that rock wall, this kind of cliff was very difficult for a strong man to climb, let alone these old and sick people.
"There's another one to the north."
Kuwa scratched her head and smiled innocently: "The one in the north is the main road, and the one in the south is just a shortcut for the hunters in the village. ”
"Oh?"
Li Duo's eyes flashed, and he said to Kuwa, "Take me to see!" ”
Prepare a way out for yourself at any time, this is a good habit that Li Duo has developed in his previous life, even if he sneaks into the secret base of Black Watch and does not plan several evacuation routes for himself, Li Duo will not act rashly, at this time, hearing that there is still a road, Li Duo's heart can't help but liven up.
This narrow platform is suspended on three sides, and only the west side is a vertical upward rock wall, which leads to the top of the mountain, but the steep and smooth rock mass makes it impossible for ordinary people to climb at all.
The cliffs on the south and east sides are extremely steep, only the cliffs on the north side have a gentle slope, and the mountains are not covered with forest vegetation, only large areas of artemisia grass that are knee-high and sway in the breeze.
In the distance, Li Duo saw a wide river at a glance, and at the first sight of the river, Li Duo's eyes lit up!
