Chapter 108: It's hard to enter the city and it's hard to get to the sky
Jiang Cheng and Zhou Huiming were chatting casually, and suddenly, there was a very fierce noise outside, in fact, this kind of noise happens at the city gate every day.
Because, the current Haicheng is not free to enter and exit, in the early days of the end of the world, Haicheng can still enter casually, but with the development of the end times, more and more human beings gather in Haicheng, which directly leads to the overcrowding of Haicheng.
As a result, the Haicheng official issued the latest decree, anyone who wants to enter Haicheng to live temporarily, must hand over a material that satisfies the military, and this material is usually food, and nothing else can replace it.
In this way, the hope of the vast majority of people entering Haicheng is suppressed, in fact, outside the ancient city walls of Haicheng now, there are countless slums, and the people in these areas are all people who have no ability, and they also can't get food, and they can't hand in enough food, they are destined to not be able to enter Haicheng.
The last hope of the refugees who have just arrived in Haicheng is to enter Haicheng, they originally thought that only Haicheng is safe in this vicinity, and they ran all the way, hoping to reach the holy place in their hearts as soon as possible.
However, when they really arrived at the foot of Haicheng, they found that the current Haicheng was not at all what they thought, and it was not a happy land.
Outside the city, there are countless slums, and the human beings inside are not taken care of by the Haicheng officials at all, and they can't manage them, and many people in the slums can't even drink a bowl of porridge now.
People starve to death outside the city every day, and murders happen here almost every day, but no army will care about the life or death of this group of incompetent people, and the official has tacitly acknowledged that they are left to fend for themselves, and this is a place of despair.
The people who came to Haicheng from other cities to take refuge in Haicheng, the greatest hope is to be able to enter Haicheng, enter the holy land in their hearts, even the poor people living outside Haicheng, they think about how to enter Haicheng every day, compared to these people outside the city, Jiangcheng they are already very happy.
Today, another group of outsiders came to Haicheng, and those people were none other than Jiang Cheng's classmate Zhao Tian and his subordinates.
Originally, as the Awakened, they had the ability to find supplies and exchange them for a Haicheng temporary residence permit, but at the gate of the city, Zhao Tian was so angry that he actually quarreled with the soldiers guarding the gate.
"We rushed all the way from Jincheng, experienced ups and downs along the way, and were almost eaten by insects several times, and finally arrived at the gate of Haicheng City, you actually didn't let us enter the city?"
Zhao Tian's whole person was almost angry now, he thought that he would be safe when he arrived in Haicheng, and when he was only a dozen kilometers away from Haicheng, his whole heart was beating excitedly.
That's because he was so excited, as soon as he thought that he would be able to see his family when he came to Haicheng, and then take a hot bath comfortably, Zhao Tian was so excited that he couldn't sleep peacefully, but now, all his dreams were shattered by the soldiers guarding the door.
"If you want to enter Haicheng, you can also do it, but you must make a certain contribution to the government, and you can exchange four meat worms for a temporary residence permit, and so on. â
The guards replied to Zhao Tian coldly, without a trace of emotion, the soldiers guarding the gate at the gate of Haicheng City experienced life and death every day, what kind of scene had they never seen? Even if Zhao Tian was making trouble here, the soldiers didn't care at all.
In fact, those who had just arrived in Haicheng with Zhao Tian, in addition to the members of their small gang, there were also many refugees from other places, and they all came to the city gate early, but the soldiers guarding the city did not let them in.
They are now wandering near the city gate, just to seek an opportunity to get started, at this time, they saw that Zhao Tian, a stunned young man, actually dared to make trouble at the door, so they all followed suit.
"Is the country going to abandon us? We have worked so hard to come here to defect to Haicheng, and this is our last hope! How can you do this?"
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, let's get in. The refugees were boiling, but the soldiers defending the city still stood at the door coldly, like an iron tower, and did not say a word.
At this time, a soldier who looked like a captain walked out of the gatehouse, his eyes radiated electricity, and the essence of light flashed inside, and he looked like a powerful warrior.
As the captain of the city gate guard, he was supposed to be guarding Miss Zhou next to the tea shed, but he heard the intermittent noise outside, Miss Zhou was in the tea shed, and was meeting a very important martial artist, it is rumored that this martial artist can single out 5 A-level martial artists, and he is an extremely powerful storage zĂ i, and this appointment is naturally very important.
When the captain heard the noise outside the city gate, his heart rose to his throat, and the person sitting in the tea shed was Zhou Huimin, the highest military governor of Haicheng, in front of the highest commander, if he could not maintain the safety of the city gate, it would be his dereliction of duty.
He took a deep breath, as if to calm the anger in his heart, and he secretly scolded: "These two fools who guard the door, they can't even do this little thing, don't you know that troubled times should be used as a heavy code?"
So he rushed to the city gate with great vigour, just to solve the troublemakers outside the city.
"I warn you, those who continue to make trouble, no matter how much you want to enter Haicheng, now when you arrive in Haicheng, you have to act according to the rules of Haicheng, based on the four meat worms, as long as you can take out food that is equal to the four meat worms, you can get a Haicheng temporary residence permit. â
As soon as the captain of the guard said this, many of the troublemakers stopped, after all, most of them were adults, and they knew which rules to abide by and which people not to offend.
But Zhao Tian has been a second ancestor since he was a child, and he didn't know what it meant to be soft, and among all the people present, he was the only one who stood up again.
"What kind of bullshit rule is this? I think it should be abolished and everyone outside the city should be allowed to enter the city. Zhao Tian wanted to continue, but suddenly found a strong man like an iron tower standing in front of him.
At this moment, the strong man was looking at him indifferently, and then, the strong man grabbed Zhao Tian with one hand, and raised his other hand violently, forming a slap the size of an iron dustpan in mid-air.
"Didn't I just say that the troublemaker will slap his mouth twenty again? Can't you understand people?"
Syllable!
The captain of the guard slapped Zhao Tian in the face, and the speed of this slap was so fast that a C-level high-grade martial artist like Zhao Tian did not react, and was directly slapped in the face.
This slap was fast and ruthless, and Zhao Tian was dizzy and swollen, and several back molars were also knocked to the ground at the same time, and a little blood flowed out of the corners of his mouth.
"You, you dare to hit me. Zhao Tian pointed to the strong captain in front of him, with an unconfident expression. He didn't encounter any major setbacks in the last days, but today, he was slapped in the face by the captain of the Haicheng Guard, and he was severely insulted, at this moment, Zhao Tian even wanted to kill the captain of the guard, but unfortunately, in the face of absolute strength, he couldn't fight back even if he wanted to.
Those dozen or so brothers who followed him in the past are now obediently hiding aside, and they didn't even help him say a word, Zhao Tian felt a great shame at this moment, but he didn't dare to come out, and even the tears that flowed were held back.
"Captain, can you sell me face? Don't hit this guy. â
I don't know who it is, but he actually interceded for Zhao Tian at this juncture.
