Chapter Seventy-Three: The Growth of the World
Looking up at the arch that is completely different from the simple and neat modern hospital style of 'Kant', which can be called a work of art, Zhang Longchu shrugged his shoulders in confusion and said in a joking tone: "Fina, it seems that the spare morgue of your hospital is very gorgeously decorated." ”
"At a time like this, don't make such jokes, Long Chu!" The frightened Fina whispered angrily, "The hall on the top floor is not a spare morgue.
It's usually closed, but it's only open at the end of the year, and a cocktail party is held to treat us hospital employees and boost morale. ”
The round arch in front of them was pushed open as the two spoke, and a middle-aged man in a crisp suit shouted, "Flowers are placed in order from shallow to deep, you must pay attention to the sense of layering, do you know how to have a layer."
Bishop Waffaff will be here in a moment, and don't forget to place two pure white lilies at his feet, remember to be pure white...", striding out, almost touching the cart because of his haste of action.
"Oh, he's the big guy I'm going to serve this time, right?" Fortunately, he stopped in a little panic, and when he saw the old corpse on the operating cart, he immediately muttered to himself, and then turned around and raised his voice and ordered: "Ashev come here, our dear employer is here."
Put him in the coffin immediately, and by the way, don't forget to put that white goose down blanket, this farewell ceremony is the highest level. Then, as if he didn't see Zhang Longchu and Fina, he bypassed the cart and walked to the other end of the corridor.
"Hey, thank you for bringing the body," as a sweaty young man in the hall ran to the cart. He smiled wearily at Zhang Longchu and Fina, and pointed to the corpses on the cart. "Just give him to me next." , pull up the cart and place it in the center of the wall opposite the arch. Walking towards the crystal coffin surrounded by countless flowers.
Glancing through the crack in the door, she swept the hall and saw that it had been completely decorated into a mourning hall, and even the mass table for the priest to preside over the funeral had been set up. ”
"What does it have to do with us whether to exaggerate or not," At this time, Zhang Longchu's mind was full of expectations for the growth of his strange world again, and he said casually: "Didn't you just say that you want to leave quickly." Let's go, I'm hungry and I'm already pressed against my back. ”
Hearing her boyfriend say this, Fina in love naturally wouldn't be disappointed, and soon took the elevator back to the duty room with Zhang Longchu, changed her clothes, and left the hospital together.
The two had a quick meal and took a taxi back to Fina's rented apartment, where they lay in bed in the bedroom and ate snacks. watched a pure rice-style romance movie, and did the favorite thing between men and women twice.
Time unconsciously arrived at 11 o'clock in the evening, Zhang Longchu and his girlfriend said goodbye and hurriedly returned home. Seeing that the adoptive parents were watching TV in the living room on the first floor, they said hello to the two, and then hurried back to their bedroom.
After such a long delay, his patience had been stretched to the limit. As soon as he locked the door, he kicked off his shoes without even taking off his clothes and climbed directly into bed. Turning his mind, he entered the world of strange things.
The scene in front of me instantly changed from the bedroom of a wealthy family in Los Angeles to the seaside. In the middle of a wilderness jungle, Zhang Longchu looked up at the four huge golden dice above the sky and condensed out of thin air, landing at his feet, rolling in the air to show 11, 8, 9, 6, a total of 34 points.
At the same time, a large area of black fog covered the earth, and the exposed forest expanded from 30 kilometers to 40 kilometers, and this 10 kilometers of expansion increased the living space of the Chulong people from 900 square kilometers to 1,600 square kilometers.
The area of 1,600 square kilometers is already equivalent to the territory of an ordinary city in the new generation of rice, taking the agricultural city 'Moore' around Los Angeles as an example, it is enough to feed millions of people.
Of course, because of the differences in productivity caused by the era, the degree of civilization, and the type, the world of strange things cannot be compared with the earth, but if it is properly developed, it is definitely more than enough to feed 200,000 or 300,000 people.
Coincidentally, at this time, they passed the most difficult period caused by the war, and as the new generation came of age after the war, the Chulong clan ushered in the first period of rapid population growth.
Based on the general marriage age of 16 men and 15 women in ancient times, the population has increased by one and a half times in fifteen years, so that the acres of fields cultivated near Chulong City, the livestock raised, the hunting in the mountains and forests, and the fish in the sea cannot all support so many Dingkou, so some people have to be relocated to open a new city.
And even in modern times, the relocation of tens of thousands of people is a huge project.
It took 3 years to finally build two acropolis named Yigan and Keyi about 15 kilometers away from the southwest and southeast sides of Chulong City, and cut down forests in the city to open roads, and built three straight roads that communicate with each other.
The width of the straight road is two zhang, and it is built by the master of the city of Chulong City, who has received the nourishment of divine power and is like a monster, and is built with thick rice porridge stirred with delicate clay that is half a finger thick, and the stone slab is one foot square, which is extremely smooth.
About 15 kilometers of the road, ordinary peasants walk for half a day, even straw shoes can not be worn out can pass through the city through the town, it is really very convenient, but there are too many fierce beasts in the dense forest, there are farmland arrow towers near the city The area is good, once away from the town, even if you travel together, there is no more than a dozen fully armed soldiers to protect, it is also more than auspicious.
In this case, the old master city lord had a whim, drew drawings based on his memories in his hometown, and created a kind of black iron chariot that was not much different from the ancient Chinese bronze chariot on the earth, except that the wheels had axles and a layer of black iron chariot similar to rubber and elastic glue.
This kind of chariot was pulled by two newly domesticated animals outside the city of Chulong, which looked like cattle and horses, and had horns on their foreheads.
And when the emperor drove the car, with the two elite crossbowmen and two halberd soldiers in the carriage who were personally selected by the commander of the Chulong City with severed fingers, and awarded the method of battle, day and night, every hour after patrolling the three straight roads, the roads between the cities were finally cleared and became safe, so that the entire territory of the Chulong clan was reintegrated into a whole.
At this point, nearly twenty years have passed in the world of strange things, and twelve full days have passed in the real world, except for the first day when he slept on the gray bat bus for twenty hours, the rest of the days Zhang Longchu spent in the 'Conqueror Theme Park' on the Silent Hill plane.
The Silent Hill plane, whose name is rumored to come from a well-known horror game from the old days.
It stands to reason that it is a bit inexplicable to name a heterotopic plane that is to some extent comparable to the earth with a game name that has long been out of print on the market, but in fact, this kind of rash naming has a long history in the United States, and once upon a time one of the aircraft carriers that shocked the entire Pacific Ocean was named "Kitty Hawk";
Under the guise of a soap opera-like military operation called the 'Space War Project', the toughest enemy has been dragged down, so it's not surprising to call an alien plane under the name of a game that would otherwise have disappeared.
Especially when someone enters the 'Conqueror Theme Park' of this plane, and has experienced the kind of games that seem to be ordinary but imply wonderful horror plots, they gradually agree with the name of 'Silent Hill', which sounds ordinary, but tastes carefully but is a little chilling.
It's a pity that a game is a game after all, and for ordinary middle school students, a few movable corpses with rotten and gray skin, revealing red and white fat and muscles;
Some of the short heterogeneous natives who suddenly popped up with chameleon-like abilities were enough to cause exclamations again and again, but for Zhang Longchu, who had killed dozens of gang members in Los Angeles at once because of revenge, this trick really didn't arouse much interest.
This is especially true during the special period when civilization began to evolve rapidly after he focused entirely on the growth of strange things.
On this day, the scorching sun was in the sky, and in the west area of the huge Silent Hill 'Conqueror Theme Park', a large area of endless hillside covered with green grass drove a long line of electric tour buses lined up in the word 'one'.
Under the hard plastic pergola in the back row of a car in the middle of the convoy, Celia was looking at the green grass in the distance, and suddenly felt leaning on the backrest, as always, with her eyes closed, and her body constantly swinging with the shaking of the car, Zhang Longchu, who was leaning on herself again, knocked on Zhang Longchu's head in annoyance, and roared in a low voice: "You wake me up quickly, Zhang Longchu."
What the hell, everyone else is happy to come to the different plane for graduation trips, but you feel like you're drunk all day long, except for eating and sleeping, if you're so lazy, how good it is to stay at home and sleep during the holidays, why waste the donations of those old alumni..."
She complained for a while, and saw that Zhang Longchu still didn't wake up at all, so she sighed helplessly, and straightened his body sideways.
Coincidentally, at this time, Zhang Longchu, who had accurately calculated the sunrise and sunset 15 times in the world of strange things, and knew that half an hour had passed in reality, turned his mind and opened his eyes after getting out of the world of strange things.
"Did I fall asleep and press you again, Celia," he said as he felt his adoptive sister hugging his soft body, and his heart beat a little faster, "I'm sorry." ”
"Oh, do you have narcolepsy, or do you not sleep every night and fool around all night, Mr. Zhang Longchu," seeing Zhang Longchu wake up, the anger that had been extinguished in Celia's heart instantly rekindled, "How can you sleep all day, all day, and you can't scream!" (To be continued.) )
