Chapter 448: Drought

A moment later, the two wolf cubs shrank in the cloth pockets in Su Ying's arms and shivered.

When Su Ying was passing by just now, he noticed these two wolf cubs, they should have been injured and followed the back of the wolf pack, it is not entirely appropriate to say that they are wolf cubs, because they are not so small anymore, otherwise they can't follow the wolves out.

But the wolves may have seen that they were injured, and looked like they were going to abandon them, and since the wolves didn't want it, she would take them back and give them to the two treasures as gifts.

The two little wolves were hung in the cloth pockets on their chests by Su Ying, and they greeted the gale and shivered!

The desert is vast, Su Ying drove the speed to the maximum and enjoyed the excitement of a drag race.

With a speed of 200 kilometers per hour, this desert is not big, and it won't be long before Su Ying can get out.

When he felt that the distance was about the same, Su Ying slowed down.

If she remembered correctly, she would be out of the desert before dawn.

The closer he got to the edge of the desert, the more corpses Su Ying encountered, most of which had been eaten by wild beasts, and they were incomplete.

She took out a water bag from her body and poured it into her hand for the two little wolves to drink, and the two little wolves seemed to be able to feel the heavy evil qi on Su Ying's body, so they didn't dare to make a mistake at all, and they drank it honestly when they saw the water.

After another half an hour, she was out of the desert.

The night near dawn was always exceptionally dark, and the moonlight hid in the clouds, and there was nothing to see on the road ahead.

Su Ying turned on the high beams and suddenly illuminated a corpse hanging from a tree.

Su Ying's heart jumped, and he went over there, the corpse hanging on the tree had already been dried and turned into a dry corpse.

She continued on, and at dawn she saw the gates of Los Angeles in the distance.

She put her things into the space and led a horse out, and when she approached the gate, she found that it was already full of people.

They all crouched outside the city gates, waiting for them to be opened.

Su Ying walked up to an eldest lady holding a child, and the eldest lady saw someone approaching and glanced at Su Ying with a numb expression, and saw that she was dressed cleanly and leading a horse, and a bright light immediately rose in her eyes.

"Okay, kind-hearted son, our grandparents haven't eaten for many days, please ask the kind-hearted son-in-law to give my grandson a bite to eat." The child who was held in the arms of the eldest mother looked only two or three years old, because the malnutrition caused by the prolonged hunger made his belly look bulging.

As soon as the eldest lady spoke, the people sitting around immediately looked at Su Ying, compared to them who were ragged, thin and yellow, Su Ying looked out of place standing here.

Su Ying looked at these zombie-like people, as if they would rise up and attack her at any time.

"I don't have any food on me, but I'm a doctor, I don't think your grandson looks very comfortable, find a cooler place and I'll show him."

The eldest lady heard Su Ying say this and thanked her gratefully.

Su Ying looked around and took the eldest lady to a place where she was carrying people on her back, but she was too conspicuous to lead a horse, and there were countless pairs of eyes with unknown meaning staring wherever she went.

Su Ying tied the horse to the side some distance before coming to the eldest lady and taking the child in her arms from her hand to check him.

"This kid doesn't look good, do you have any uncomfortable symptoms?"

"Yes, yes, I have a fever in the past few days, the fever goes up and down, I am still shivering, and I foam at the foam during the day, I am really scared to death, son, you must save this poor child."

Su Ying frowned when she heard this symptom, this symptom sounded like malaria, malaria is really nothing to the various weird viruses that have broken out in the last days, but it is almost a terminal illness in this era.

Su Ying thought for a while and said, "Your grandson's condition is not very good, and it is not so easy to treat, if the city gate is opened early tomorrow morning, I will take you into the city to have a look." ”

When the eldest lady heard Su Ying say this, she kowtowed to her with a thousand gratitude.

Su Ying took out a little dry food from her body and handed it to the eldest lady, "Let's eat some first, I don't have much on me." ”

The eldest lady looked at the half pancake in Su Ying's hand but did not eagerly stuff it into her mouth, but carefully put the pancake into her arms.

"You don't have to worry, I'll feed your grandson when he wakes up."

But the eldest lady still didn't eat, just shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry yet, I can endure it any longer." ”

Seeing this, Su Ying didn't persuade again, maybe she was reluctant to eat the pancakes until the last moment.

The sky brightened up in the blink of an eye, and the dark clouds seemed to dissipate in an instant, and the golden light sprinkled all over the land in an instant.

When the day dawned, the closed gates still had no intention of opening.

Now that the time has passed to open the city gates, "This gate has been closed all along?" Su Ying asked the eldest mother.

The eldest lady nodded, "Yes, I have been here for two days, and I haven't opened the door for two days." ”

Su Ying didn't say anything, and the city guards closed the city gate because they were worried that the victims outside the city would enter the city.

It is true that the arrival of the victims in the city will cause many problems, but the other side should at least have measures to deal with it, rather than allowing the victims to die outside the city.

Su Ying walked to the city gate and knocked on the city gate, "Open the door, pass by on an errand in the capital." ”

The officers and soldiers behind the city gate heard Su Ying's shout before opening a small door on the city gate.

An officer and soldier walked out, "Is that the door you called?" ”

Su Ying nodded, "It's me, who told you not to open the city gate?" ”

The officers and soldiers saw that Su Ying's temperament was extraordinary, and he must not be a victim who fled the famine, so he replied: "My lord said that these victims would make trouble if they went in, so they would not let the city gate open." ”

Su Ying took out the gold medal from his body, "I'm going to take two people into the city." As she spoke, she let the eldest lady sit on her horse.

The officers and soldiers didn't say anything when they saw that one was an old lady and the other was a toddler, and directly let Su Ying in.

Seeing this, the victims guarding outside the city all looked at each other and wanted to follow in, but the officers and soldiers did not give them this opportunity to close the city gate directly.

To Su Ying's surprise, the situation in Los Angeles was also not good.

She led the horse and walked on the streets of Los Angeles, the shops on the street were almost closed, and there was not even a pedestrian on the street.

The shopkeeper was a little unhappy to see the grandfather and grandson, but Su Ying could afford the money, so he could only let them in.

"Is there anything to eat in the store?" Su Ying called the guy and asked.

The guy said, "It's just somen noodles, do you want it?" ”

"Yes, cook two large bowls."

"Childe, let me explain to you first, this bowl of noodles is fifty copper plates, and two bowls are one hundred copper plates."

When the eldest lady heard this price, she was so surprised that she couldn't speak, these 100 copper plates can catch up with the guy's monthly salary.

The guy explained: "Childe, forgive me, now that there is a drought in Los Angeles, there is nothing, and in a few days, I am afraid that I will not be able to buy a bowl of somen noodles for a hundred copper plates." ”

"There's no water in L.A. either?"

"It's gone, the well is running out."
