Chapter 755: Black Money
But before they had yet to enter the gate, they heard the sentry at the head of the city wall shouting:
"The city doesn't accept refugees now! Don't block the gates! If you have a talent level, go to the West Gate to register for the city!" These words were like a heavy depth bomb that blew up in the middle of the refugees outside the city gates.
Cookie frowned, noticing that a number of tents had been improvised under the walls, and that ragged and scrawny refugees were huddled under the walls, shivering to keep warm.
This proves that the ban on refugees entering the city has been in place for several days, otherwise there would not be so many refugees who would not have been able to enter the city.
It seems that Gao Qing is really going to be unable to hold on.
The population of Afterglow, especially the number of refugees, has reached saturation.
Releasing more refugees would put a heavy strain on the entire city, so refugees could only be temporarily banned from entering.
There is no way to do it.
Cookie asked Ah Jing and Yu An and others to wait in the back for a while, and she, Kathleen and Ye Lanshi went to negotiate.
Ah Jing looked at the heavily armed mercenaries and robots on the city wall, subconsciously hugged the pale Eve, and pulled Edie to his side.
He had talent, but neither Eve nor Edie did, and if he didn't let them in, he wouldn't be in himself.
Everyone looked at the closed city gate in panic, and then looked at the withered and dying refugees under the city, as if they saw the future of their own people.
They came to this holy city all the way with the longing for life, but they didn't expect to be greeted with this result.
At this time, a man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks walked up to Ah Jing and the others with two followers.
Ah Jing glanced at him vigilantly and asked the two of Eve to go behind him.
"Hey, little brother, you're from Bishui Bay, right?" The sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man asked closely.
Ah Jing didn't say anything, in fact, the people with long eyes, seeing the appearance of these people and the unique white hair of the Miller people, knew that they were from Bishuiwan.
Ah Jing has always been cautious in doing things, even if the other party is the same as herself, it seems that he is a harmless refugee who cannot enter the city, but he still keeps a certain distance.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man didn't care, but sighed and said:
"Are you still thinking of going into the city? It's been closed for two days, and not even a single rat has been put in, so don't get your hopes up, nay, do you see the family in the city? Their old father had only one breath left, and it was estimated that he would die of illness here tonight, and their son knelt at the city gate for two days, and no one looked at him. ”
"The big guys above are all cold-hearted, what's the point of dying one or two refugees?"
These words really made everyone despair.
Several women hid their faces and wept.
Except for the patriarch, everyone doesn't know the identity of the cookie owner.
I thought she was a well-meaning rich person, and when she arrived in Afterglow City, she had no obligation to take care of them.
Being able to provide them with food and clothing all the time is already benevolent and righteous.
Could it be that for their cheap lives, it is the most right for the entire Afterglow City?
It's impossible to even think about.
The sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man sighed and patted Ah Jinghe's shoulder: "Little brother, if you want me to say, don't spend it here, it's only right to find a place to live around the city quickly." ”
"Although you can't get close to the city, at least your life is guaranteed, the imperial sailor is here, and those mercenaries in the city are in the way."
What he said was very reasonable, and with the lobbying of two followers, many people have begun to look for sites outside the city to take root.
The man with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks saw that it was effective, and turned into an intermediary profiteer:
"The land 100 meters out of the south city gate is good, sheltered from the wind, and it can shine at least three hours of the sun at noon, which is most suitable for children, but the protection fee is not cheap, Brother Sheng's subordinates are in charge, but fortunately you know me, I said to Brother Sheng, maybe it can be half cheaper, how about twenty nutrient solutions per month?"
Eve couldn't believe her ears:
"You even make this kind of black money?!"
Not to mention ten nutrient solutions, they don't have half of them!
And now any food is life-saving, and these people are so openly collecting protection money, which is equivalent to indirectly harming people's lives!
The intermediary man with the sharp-beaked monkey gills noticed Eve.
His gaze fell on Eve's delicate features, and a hint of amazement and greed flashed in his eyes.
These people basically control all the refugees near Afterglow City, and they usually live better than entering the city by scaring the refugees and collecting so-called protection money.
In this case, why bother to enter the city, isn't it enough to squeeze these cheap people?
Ah Jing sensitively noticed the gaze of the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man, his face sank, and he stepped in front of Eve, blocking his sight.
The man with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks "tsk":
"Little brother, your wife? It's pretty. ”
After that, the two attendants also laughed.
The three slimy gazes make the slug like a disgusting and disgusting person.
But before he finished laughing, Ah Jing smashed down with a fist, hitting the bridge of the nose of the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man, and the nosebleed suddenly flew to the ground.
"I'm Nyima! Dare to beat Lao Tzu! Believe it or not, Lao Tzu made you unable to stay in Afterglow City for ten miles! ”
The man covered his nose and cursed, saying that he was about to rush over and fight.
The follower was not to be outdone, and when he came up, he made a dead hand to Ah Jing.
Even, the people who were talking about Brother Sheng in the mouth of the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man saw the chaos here and rushed over one after another.
Seeing that it was actually his own people who were fighting, he joined the group fight indiscriminately.
Although Ah Jing has some skills, his two fists are invincible to his four hands, and he was pressed to the ground by these people after a while, his face covered with blood.
Even the friends who were good friends with Ah Jing were arrested by these people when they saw that he was suffering a loss and came to help.
Eve was even more tied with her hands behind her back, and was grabbed by the man to make cruel words:
"Stinky watch! You're in luck! Don't be ashamed! ”
Eve opened her mouth and spat at him: "If you have the ability, you will kill me!" ”
The man took a deep breath, wiped the saliva from his face, and suddenly grabbed Eve's neck violently, and began to tear her clothes with his other hand!
Ah Jing, who was pressed to the ground, let out a roar that pierced through the clouds and cracked stones, as if he was about to break out of his body and tear at the scene in front of him like a monster.
Who knew that at this moment, a black-red poisonous tongue instantly wrapped around the neck of the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man, and was about to break his major artery.
Warm blood suddenly sprinkled all over the cracked earth, gilding the ground with a layer of blood.
Seeing this, the follower of the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man was about to run.
But they were all caught up by Liang Liangqi's incomparably fast speed, and died under its fangs.
"Who is Brother Sheng?" Cookie returned to the cool with a cold face, and stood in everyone's field of vision in snow-white.
This visual impact is too powerful.
Pure white, red and black poisonous snakes, stunning cold-faced girls......
This scene is like a virtual realm, so unreal.
Kathleen stood beside him, her face stinking, but she was ashamed and ashamed.
As soon as the cookie arrived, there was this kind of suppression of refugees and robbery of people's daughters outside the city.
Isn't this equivalent to slapping her and Gao Qing in the face?
She snorted: "Who is Brother Sheng?" Consciously point it out! ”
