Chapter 279: Hope for Hard Work (Fourth Update)

Twenty kilometers of the ring city wall outside the fourth ring of Pingyang City, this is a command from the demon world, only a stable occupation of a city, a city that can basically solve the problem of food and minerals is the need of the earth demons, it has been proved that after each time the demon door is opened, the magic energy pulse brought by it can not only effectively isolate the electrical energy of the earth's human beings, but also stimulate the continuous evolution of those undead people, their defense, in fact, is more of a defense after the third pulse, the undead, that is, the zombies in the human mouth, Launching an assault on the Devil's City, they need a steady amount of time to consolidate their occupation on Earth.

As for the former masters of the earth, the so-called human race, they are just delicate and have no electricity, and they are not the opponents of the demons at all.

A flag troll is roasting a fire in the mid-mountain coffee house of the Three Fingers Peak Ski Resort, although they have rough skin and thick meat, but they wear a thin layer of leather armor, and they can't stand in minus ten degrees of weather for a long time.

There are ten trolls in a banner, and the leader is the flag officer, and Arnold and Pika around Li Yang are all at the same level.

Their task is very simple, that is, to supervise this area, 50,000 little demons, less than 5,000 humans to build the city wall, now the city wall part has been almost built, and now there is a gap every ten meters, dozens of meters, which is to be used to build city gates and shooting towers.

I have to say that human designers make things that are both beautiful and practical.

Suddenly, the door opened, and a chill blew into the room, and a troll said unhappily, "Close the door, it's freezing to death." ”

The troll who opened the door nodded and said, "I just went to the construction site to take a look, the workers are working, and five humans froze to death today. ”

Flag Officer Gem licked his lips and said, "Then don't waste it, take it, roast it and eat it." ”

Maia, the resident two-star priest who was holding a staff in his hand, said, "I think it's okay, I haven't eaten human flesh for a long time, so I kind of think about it." ”

The troll who had just come in nodded and said, "I know, I'll pick the cleanest one in a while, pack it up and bring it over." ”

There are a lot of mountains in this area, and the city walls are built up and down, but in general, they are all built on hard land, fortunately, the work of digging pits is not done by humans, but by little devils, otherwise in the cold winter, the land is as hard as stones, and how many humans are tired to death.

A group of human craftsmen are stacking stones, this kind of technical work, the little devil can't do it at all, only humans can stack stones of different sizes the same, and then pour asphalt to form a city wall.

A woman was holding a stone and putting it on the city wall, and the man on the side was stacking, looking at the haggard woman and saying, "Silently, if it doesn't work, just rest for a while." ”

The girl bit her groggy head and said, "Can't stop, here, stop working, I'll be colder, I'll die." ”

The man gritted his teeth and didn't look at this originally delicate girl, his name is Zhu Rui, he used to be a soldier of Shuangying Mountain, after the city was broken, he came to Pingyang with the train, but did not join the Pingyang army, but after a month of odd jobs, he earned money, exchanged it for food and other items, and set foot on the road to the north.

He is going to Songjiang, his friends are in Songjiang, he can't ignore them, in his opinion, since there are settlements around Pingzhou City, then there must be around Songjiang, he will definitely find them, bring them to Pingyang, he will go to be a soldier again, he has too many comrades-in-arms who are in Pingyang's army, when the time comes, it will not be difficult for him to join the army, and his military skills are excellent.

But he thought too well, in Qijiadian, not far from Pingzhou, he was captured alive by a group of demons, although he killed seven wolf cavalry with a gun at that time, but this group of big-eared demons still had no intention of killing him.

Then he was stripped of his clothes and became a slave building the city wall for more than two months.

This girl called Silent Earth is what he met here, and he is constantly instilling in everyone here that the strength of the Pingyang Army and the richness of Pingyang City, as long as they persist, they will definitely wait for the people of the Pingyang Army to save them from the sea of suffering, although there are not many people who have been captured in Pingyang, there are more than 100 people, scattered among the 5,000 people, all of them are in this tone, they are all depicting the beauty of Pingyang, so everyone is waiting, they are insisting, they count the sun every day, count the moon and count the days, Just waiting for the Pingyang army to come and rescue them.

But as time went on, as people continued to be unable to persevere, and every day people froze to death, died of exhaustion, died of disease, were killed by demons, and were hung on shelves trying to escape, people couldn't stand it.

Most of the people here were people who had not escaped far from Pingsu at that time, and some of them were people from the settlement in the direction of Songjiang.

Zhu Rui didn't ask for news of his friend, but he was trapped here, without any freedom to speak of, and every day he worked except for work, receiving things like starving coarse bread and green plant pickles.

But he always firmly believed that the powerful Binh Duong army would come over.

The Pingyang Army is the hope of the slaves.

"Sister!" A young man screamed miserably, looked at Xu Mo who had fallen, and picked up Xu Mo's body, Xu Mo was already panting rapidly.

This is a symptom of a severe cold, now she is cold, but her face is red and scary, Zhu Rui put down the work in his hand and rushed over, he has a good impression of this girl, but he doesn't dare to confess, in this precarious place, he can't give the girl any sense of security.

But before he could touch the girl, the young man holding Xu Mo kicked over, Zhu Rui was anxious and didn't dodge.

"Get out! Get out of here! It's you! It is you who give us hope that we should not have, let us seek hope in despair, let us keep telling ourselves with an impossible opportunity to save zài, as long as we persevere, one day we will get out of the sea of suffering, one day we will leave here, we will live a normal life again, live like a person again! You lied to us! You shouldn't give us hope, it's better to let us die slowly in despair than to leave with hope and regret! ”

"Xiaobao, don't be like this, if it weren't for Zhu Rui, we wouldn't be alive today." The girl lying in the arms of the young Xu Bao said with pale lips.

Zhu Rui looked at Xu Mo, who couldn't survive today, and his heart ached.

Am I really wrong?

Shouldn't I live with hope?

What is the difference between human beings and the walking dead if they lose the motivation to live!

Zhu Rui couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't figure it out, and in the end, he jumped out of the city wall, ran down the mountain bag, and ran wildly in the direction of Pingyang.

Since you are not coming, I will go and find you.

However, not far after he jumped out of the city wall, he was discovered by the patrolling wolf cavalry, and six or seven wolf cavalry jumped out and chased after Zhu Rui.

Xu Bao looked anxiously at Zhu Rui who was going away, he knew that his momentary anger was likely to cost Zhu Rui's life.

Now, he only hoped that Zhu Rui could run out in this vast sea of snow, instead of being captured by the wolf cavalry and hanging on the shelf. R1148
