Chapter Twenty-Seven: Out of the City
Ye Chuan got off at the South Gate Station, Xin Lao Wu, Xue Kaitai, and four soldiers from Shilixiang Farm were already waiting there.
Although it was only more than sixty miles from the city to the farm, Xue Kaitai did not dare to be careless and organized a six-person escort team to protect Ye Chuan's safety.
"Brother!"
"Fifth brother!"
Seeing Ye Chuan, Xin Lao Wu greeted happily, and Xue Kaitai also introduced several brothers from the farm around him to Ye Chuan, they came out of the farm before dawn this morning, preparing to take Ye Chuan to Zhuangzi as a guest, but it was quite hard.
Ye Chuan is the original author of the Green Butterfly Capsule, only Xue Kaitai and Xin Lao Wu know, and it is said to the outside world that Ye Chuan is the apprentice of the capsule master, and Ye Chuan is fully responsible for things related to the farm.
In this way, the relationship between everyone and Ye Chuan is much closer, after all, most people are afraid of capsule masters, if they really show their identities, it will cause psychological pressure on the brothers of the farm.
Now that Ye Chuan is visiting as an apprentice, he is young and has no shelf, so everyone can easily accept him.
Looking up at the sky, Xue Kaitai said: "It's not early, let's go out now, from the city to the farm, more than sixty miles, it will take a few hours, and after dark, there will be mutant beasts roaming around, so we have to arrive before dark anyway." ”
Ye Chuan nodded, in fact, with his degree of one hundred and thirty kilometers, he would die fifteen minutes from the city to the farm, but who let the aurora be Ye Chuan's secret, it is not easy to take it out.
The policy of Guangzhou City is to enter the city with leniency and strictness, and no one cares about leaving the city, but when you enter the city, you need to search your body to see if you are carrying contraband, and if you encounter those greedy city defense troops, you will even be extorted.
He hadn't left the gloomy city for more than five years, and Ye Chuan, who had left the city, was quite excited in his heart, only to see that there were many large farms outside the city, which belonged to the city alliance, and they opened up fields close to the city, planted grains, and sold them to the citizens of the city.
Naturally, opening a farm close to the city is the most convenient and safe option, but unfortunately this is only the prerogative of the city alliance, and a person like Xin Lao Wu, who has nothing to do with the city government, has to go deep into the more dangerous wilderness.
The farmstead of the City Alliance was limited to twenty miles, and the city defense army could not take care of it any farther away, so after ten kilometers away from the city wall, the surrounding scenery changed again, from a large paddy field that was about to be harvested to a lush woods and grass, and truly entered the wilderness.
Call~
Ye Chuan breathed in the fresh and free air, and felt that every sweat pore in his body was stretched, compared to the dark and damp city, it was really the air in the wild that was more suitable for him.
The first twenty miles of the road was not fast, it was close to noon at the moment, Xue Kaitai said: "Let's rest here for a while, eat something, the next road is more difficult, and the march must be faster." ”
Ye Chuan nodded, took out the food in his backpack and shared it with everyone.
Xin Lao Wu took out a capsule from his arms, and after starting, it became a set of outdoor dining tables, and it was also equipped with folding chairs, and Da Liu also took out a capsule, which was a set of gas stoves after starting, which could boil water to make tea.
The most important thing in a wild meal is to shield the taste, so as not to attract mutant beasts to find the taste, so Xue Kaitai took out a bottle of spray and sprinkled it around.
This is an air purifier, essential for survival in the wild, the spray will break down into very small molecules, eliminating the surrounding odor, effective for up to 24 hours.
These armed peasants are all veterans of survival in the wild, and they know what they should do, Ye Chuan watched from the sidelines, secretly jotting down the essentials of their actions.
After a while, the tables and chairs were set up, the tea began to boil, and the surrounding environment was beautiful, and a small stream under his feet flowed slowly, which made Ye Chuan inevitably have the illusion of having a picnic outside.
This kind of life close to nature is difficult for those who live in the city all year round to experience and enjoy.
Xue Kaitai and the others also prepared food, but it was far less abundant than Ye Chuan's preparation, so they were embarrassed to take it out.
Pork rolls, a typical northern flavor, are marinated with the best tenderloin, then roasted over a charcoal fire, and then rolled up in a thick white dough with a little cumin, pepper and salt, and vitamin-rich lettuce in the burrito to clear the mouth, which is a delicacy in the world.
With the increase of income, Ye Chuan also began to make some more refined food, he was born in a family of foodies, his father inherited the private cuisine of the imperial capital, Ye Chuan was deeply influenced since childhood.
However, what Ye Chuan is cooking now is at most the level of home-cooked meals, which is too far from the real top food, after all, Ye Chuan doesn't have so many ingredients, and he doesn't have the time to make delicious food, so it's good to be able to satisfy his appetite, in this era, it's not easy to eat a full stomach, and he can't think too much.
Even so, the meal amazed the brothers at the farm, and before the burritos on the fire were thoroughly baked, they eagerly picked them up and shoved them into their mouths, even the crumbs that had fallen on the table.
After eating lunch like a whirlwind and clouds, Da Liu poured a cup of tea for everyone, and after drinking tea, he was about to return to the road, and the sky was gradually a little overcast at this moment, as if it was going to rain.
Ye Chuan looked around with a teacup, not far away was once a town, but now it has been abandoned, bricks and cement buildings have never been as tenacious as green plants, and trees and weeds have completely squeezed the living space of human beings in the past.
Countless weeds grew from the inside out of the concrete pavement, and a tree even peeked through the roof to peek out of the canopy, and if it were not for the masonry scattered on the ground, it would have been impossible to tell that there had been a human habitation there.
In just a hundred years, human beings have been driven into the city, and the outside of the city has been completely reduced to a paradise of all kinds of natural life, and even the traces of human beings are gradually being erased.
Sniffing the air with his nose, Ye Chuan smiled and said: "According to historical records, the Huaxia region has been mired in unprecedented air pollution, from the north to the south, the entire Da 6 is shrouded in toxic haze, which is many times worse than the air in the city today, and countless people have suffered from all kinds of strange diseases because of air pollution. ”
"Even the soil is polluted, the crops planted are marked with heavy metals, people will get cancer after eating, the power of nature is really amazing, some scientists have predicted, so strict pollution will take a thousand years to control, this is only a hundred years later, nature has been restored, it seems that the power of human beings in front of nature, after all, is still very small."
Xin Lao Wu pursed his lips, "I like nature and fresh air, but it would be better if there were no mutant beasts." ”
Ye Chuan said: "We are lucky enough, the ancestors like to eat wild meat, and killed a large number of wild animals, because of the pollution in the early years, a large number of them were killed, so our Huaxia region was not harassed by the mutant beasts too strongly." ”
"Look at the places where the environment was protected well in ancient times, what North America and South America, that is called mutant beasts rampant, the most powerful country in history, the United States, has long envied us Chinese people, there are a lot of mutant beasts there, no matter how you kill them, you can't kill them all."
Da Liu said: "North America is nothing, the worst is the Russian region, the mutant beasts in Siberia are said to have become fine, and there are only two cities left in the huge Russia, Moscow and St. Petersburg, and all the other cities have been attacked by the mutant beasts without exception." ”
"But we also have to be vigilant, after all, it borders Siberia to the north, if it weren't for the fact that there is a capital city over there, and the mutant beasts were not killed, the Huaxia Region would not know what it would look like."
Xue Kaitai said: "The border with Myanmar and Vietnam in the south is also quite hanging, Yunnan is a plateau is better, and the situation in Guangxi is more complicated, it is said that the two main defensive cities of Nanning and Beihai are attacked by mutant beasts every day, and life is much more difficult than ours." ”
"As for the situation in the western region, it is not optimistic, Urumqi, which is isolated in the western regions, has heard that it is about to be unable to withstand it, and the pressure on the western defense city agglomeration composed of Xining, Lanzhou, and Yinchuan is also getting greater day by day."
Ye Chuan nodded slightly, although there are still many cities on the earth that are still under the huge pressure caused by mutant beasts, the overall situation has been getting better and better.
The rapid development of capsule technology and the increasing number of genetic warriors allowed the earth to withstand the bombardment of mutant beasts in the first hundred years and survive.
I don't know why, the mutant beasts have been very inactive recently, and it has been more than twenty miles out of the city, and Ye Chuan has not seen a real mutant beast.
As a staunch conspiracy theorist, Ye Chuan doesn't believe that there is no deeper reason behind the inactivity of mutant beasts, it's just that humans can't figure it out.
In any case, the mutant beast's low profile gave humans precious respite, and Ye Chuan thought that it was just a short silence during the disaster, and the decisive battle would come sooner or later.
