"Parking ......"

Liu Tianliang on the co-pilot suddenly waved his hand, let the whole convoy slowly stop against the side of the bridge, he immediately opened the door and walked down with a few people, and not far in front of them is a road to Jiangxinzhou, the whole bridge crosses from above it to both sides of the Yangtze River, but in the north of a section of the fall apart, the thick cable-stayed steel cable hangs on the bridge deck like noodles, but such a tragic situation did not make the bridge completely collapse, I have to say that it is really a miracle!

Liu Tianliang lit a cigarette for himself with a windproof lighter, and strode forward with Hu Mei, about five or six hundred meters in front of him is the fracture surface of the bridge, but no less than thousands of cars are blocked in that area, from the cheapest three-wheeled motorcycles to expensive Porsches and Ferraris, almost everything, at a glance it is simply an auto show scene!

It can be seen that those vehicles are not abandoned, the windshield is wiped clean, and there are many people shuttling back and forth in the car pile, either getting together to play cards and chat, or engaging in car shocks with some pheasant warblers on the spot, those people don't care about other people's eyes at all, many rickety cars are not stretched out of two beautiful legs with a man's waist, or a head hanging outside the car and moaning, and even men and women running around with bare butts after things are not uncommon!

"What do those people do? Do they live in the car? ”

Liu Tianliang took a light puff of his cigarette and looked at the men and women who were laughing loudly with a strange expression, even with his endurance, he couldn't help but feel that these people were too obscene and dirty, but Hu Mei shrugged his shoulders and said with a strange expression: "No! Those men are all members of the material search team, both official and private, because they are afraid that these people who come back from going out will be infected by the virus, so the official has long made it clear that they are not allowed to return to the city within ten hours of entering the bridge, and they will not be put in if there is no corpse change after ten hours. ”

"And we're going to spend ten hours on this broken bridge?"

Liu Tianliang immediately frowned, and looked at Hu Mei with an unhappy face, but Hu Mei smiled coquettishly: "Of course not, now is the era when money can make grinding ghosts, if the boss is in a hurry to get in, spend money to let people check for you to get in, these people on the other side are all old fritters, so they won't spend that unjust money!" ”

"It's really layer by layer, layer by layer, it seems that the principle of interest first will not change forever......"

Liu Tianliang shook his head with disdain, slowly walked to the bridge and looked down on the guardrail, while Hu Mei held her arms and kept just the right distance from him, and said with a chuckle: "Actually, boss, if you want to live here for a long time, you will find that these exploits are understandable, the Vanity City provides us with protection, but it also needs to be built, the roads also need to be cleaned, and the equipment and supplies of the soldiers, and even the rations for those poor people, etc., all of which need to spend a lot of food and materials to support, I believe the boss, you don't want to live in a place where you don't feel safe and it's like a pig's nest, right? ”

"Why is it called Flashy City? Does that mean it's only superficially prosperous? ”

Liu Tianliang turned to look at Hu Mei noncommittally, but Hu Mei nodded and smiled: "That's almost the meaning, behind the drunken gold fans are inevitably piles of corpses and bones, and the glitz is just an appearance no matter where it is, but in the eyes of most people, this city with a population of 120,000 is definitely a combination of angels and devils, which brings hope to people at the same time, but also brings us all kinds of hardships and suffering!" ”

"120,000 people here?"

Liu Tianliang's eyes widened in disbelief, he didn't expect that a small Jiang Xinzhou would gather so many people, and Hu Mei, who was holding her hands, nodded affirmatively again, and said with a little helplessness: "People say that condensation is the essence, and not many people who can survive until now rely solely on luck, so you must not look at this city with the old eyes of the past, the people here have made this city more pure and realistic, and people who do not have great courage will not be able to live until tomorrow!" ”

"You're pretty good at speaking, I'm afraid you didn't do this before, right?"

Liu Tianliang picked his chin and looked at Hu Mei with interest, while Hu Mei smiled bitterly: "How many of us here used to do this?" It's not that I'm cornered, no one will abandon their dignity to do these dirty things, you may not believe it, I used to be the director of a university, but now I'm just a young lady who can play with you for a few pounds of rice, there are too many women like me here! ”

"Then you are really open-minded, from heaven to hell, I'm afraid it doesn't feel good, right?"

Liu Tianliang looked at Hu Mei in surprise, but Hu Mei smoothed the hair that was blown away by the wind in front of her forehead, and said indifferently: "I don't know if you have ever been hungry, but that taste is definitely 10,000 times more painful than being stabbed to death, I used to think that selling my body would definitely be painful, it was better to die, but when I was so hungry that I even wanted to eat dead human flesh, I really found out that it was a fortunate thing that a man was willing to spend money to have a relationship with you, otherwise he could really only die a little painful death in hunger!" ”

Hu Mei's words are undoubtedly thought-provoking, and the few people gathered behind Liu Tianliang all looked at her with extremely complicated expressions, which can make an engineer of a human soul degenerate to the point of selling her body, it is really difficult for ordinary people to imagine the pain she has experienced, but Luan Qian frowned and said: "What you said seems to be quite helpless and pitiful, but I still can't agree with your approach, in other words, I will definitely jump into the river and die, I think it's disgusting enough to sell my body!" ”

"If you have the courage to die, why don't you have the courage to live? And if you've ever tried the feeling that you can't die, you won't think about it again......"

Hu Mei chuckled and shook her head, then put her hands behind her back and said: "Okay bosses, I don't think you are here to listen to me for spending money, I think you should go and feel this apocalyptic city for yourself, where you can get what you want if you have money, this is a real gold cave!" ”

"Let's go, brothers, let's go down and have a good look, so that my earth leopard can open my eyes......"

Liu Tianliang waved his hand and stopped taking the car, leading the convoy to stride under the bridge, and the first thing that caught their eyes was a row of city walls made of earth and stone, which was neither tall nor stocky, and the loose appearance looked more like coping with errands, but it was along the river embankment and wrapped the whole city in it!

"Huh? It is surrounded by rivers on all sides, why should a city wall be built? Could it be that a living corpse can still swim over? ”

Luan Qian took Liu Tianliang's arm and looked at the city wall in front of her curiously, there were still a lot of strong laborers on the city wall who were pushing and shouldering earth and stones to continue to reinforce, and some soldiers with rifles were lazily patrolling back and forth on it, while Hu Mei slowed down and said with a smile: "This is not to prevent living corpses, but to prevent the corpse fish in the river from coming ashore, those corpse fish bite people much more powerful than living corpses, and their number is huge, many species can even jump out of the water one or two meters high, If we hadn't built the walls, we would have been bitten to death! ”

"So the river water must also be polluted, so how can you people drink water here?"

Luan Qian tilted her head and looked at Hu Mei in wonder, but Hu Mei pointed to a few pipes that extended into the river in the distance and explained, "Have you seen those pipes?" There is a water purification plant in our city, and the river water can be safely drunk after the filtration there, but the daily output is very limited, and we must be careful to drink enough water, so we dare not wash rice when we eat, a pot of water cooks the rice directly, and the untreated river water can only wash the heels and wash the clothes at most! ”

"Then how do you hundreds of thousands of people eat? I'm afraid the official won't raise idlers in vain, right? ”

Liu Tianliang also turned his head and asked curiously, but Hu Mei said helplessly: "This is for the eight immortals to cross the sea to show their magical powers, and the brave can form a team to go out and desperately find food with the living corpses, but cowards like us have to do all kinds of things, such as farming, picking up dung, cleaning the streets and building city walls, etc., these jobs will be officially paid......

"But don't underestimate the work of picking up dung, in addition to farming here, but a good job that can't be grabbed by breaking the head, not only to be strong and easy to use, you don't have a certain interpersonal relationship don't want to go in, and the total number of posts is just a little bit, more nervous than the millions of military exams for civil servants back then!"

Hu Mei looked at everyone with a smile behind her back, and in everyone's minds, there was immediately a ridiculous picture of giving gifts and looking for relationships to pick up dung, but it is very normal to think about it, picking up dung may be smelly and dirty, and there is no status at all, but this is definitely a job that guarantees income in drought and flood and is not dangerous at all, I believe that many people would rather pick up dung to make food and clothing, rather than fight with terrible living corpses, after all, going out of the city is likely to be a road of no return!

"That's not right, right? I know that the area of Baishazhou is not small, but even if half of the land is used for farming, it can't support a population of 120,000, right? Do you have any other means of survival? ”

Liu Tianliang still looked at Hu Mei very suspiciously, but Hu Mei nodded and said: "Of course, only a quarter of the land in the city is used for farming, and it is all done by the public production brigade, and ordinary people are not allowed to approach, but there are still large tracts of farmland on the other side of the river, and there are three shifts of modified boats every day in the morning, noon and evening to pick up people back and forth to farm, but the risk of crossing the river to farm is really great, although there are soldiers patrolling and protecting, but if you want to encounter any large tide of corpses, it will be completely over. Not only will the crops be trampled into a mess, but even their own lives will not be saved, and it is not uncommon for hundreds of people to die on the other side of the river every month! ”

"Hmmm! Let's find a place to talk to me slowly, you can help us go through the formalities for entering the city first......"

Liu Tianliang put his hands behind his back as he spoke, and his arrogant attitude came out again, because their line had completely walked to the city gate, and the soldiers guarding the two big iron gates were stunned, looking at their huge convoy stupidly, and Hu Mei also hurriedly whispered: "This is not a complete entry into the city, there is a real bayonet inside, the place is very strictly managed, if the boss you come hard, the soldiers of the entire Fuhua City will rush over!" ”

"Cut~ Will Lao Tzu be afraid?"

Liu Tianliang sneered with disdain, gave a thumbs up and pointed to the bridge without looking back, and Hu Mei turned around and was immediately shocked to find that the rocket cars brought by Liu Tianliang were parked on them and did not come down at all, and a group of people were already quickly adjusting the angle of the cannon muzzle, aiming at the entire Fuhua City from afar!
