Chapter 682: The Beast Tide is coming
"According to the latest research report, too high a concentration of aura will interfere with mobile phone signals, and wireless communication will be greatly affected" TV sets and major media are broadcasting news.
This news immediately sparked heated discussions.
"It seems that the phone will not work in the future." There are people who understand and draw conclusions at once.
"Why can't it be used? Isn't it just affected? Now the phone is not working properly? "There are also people who don't understand and think it's okay.
"Being greatly affected, the implication is that the mobile phone signal will be seriously interfered with by the aura, and the signal will be interrupted at any time. Quickly contact the communication company, and we will connect the wired phone at home. ”
A similar situation occurs in many families.
The phone of the telecommunications company was blown up.
"Sorry, due to busy business, we can't provide limited access service for the time being, we have registered for you, please wait patiently in line." Most people have received such a response.
However, the telecommunications company does not intend to continue to provide limited services.
Because they know that a wireless signal outage is just the beginning.
Later, there is a series of questions.
These issues have not yet been made public, but some people already know about them in advance.
The first change in the revival of aura eliminated mobile phones, communication operators, and other related industries.
There will be countless iron rice bowls in the eyes of ordinary people that will be smashed.
After some time.
New reports emerge:
"According to the latest research, experts have made a bold guess: the era of electrification will be a thing of the past!"
"Reiki affects the earth's magnetic field, and electricity is going to disappear!"
"A new era is coming, are you ready?"
There have been many such reports, which have once again sparked heated discussions across the country.
"Isn't it? Are we going back to the primitive days of 'slash-and-burn'? ”
"Probably not, even if there is no electricity, there are other power instead, and it will not return to the primitive era, at least the mechanized era is still there."
"Steam engine? What to burn? Coal? ”
"It's nothing to burn coal, and there are new energy sources such as nuclear and solar energy." The news that nuclear energy is unusable is still in lockdown, and ordinary people do not know about it yet.
"New energy is also to be converted into electricity, without electricity, how to use new energy?"
"No, new energy doesn't have to be converted into electricity. If the electrical energy disappears in the future, the new energy should be converted into other energy sources, such as thermal energy and mechanical energy. ”
"In our lives, all that is closely related is electricity, if there is no electricity, there will be no mobile phones, computers, TV dramas, refrigerators, air conditioners, so it is too inconvenient."
"It's certain that it's inconvenient for a while, but there will always be other alternatives, don't worry, we still cultivate with peace of mind.
Cultivation can increase longevity, which was something that only appeared in the past.
Now we can appear in the real world, just when we cross over.
Isn't it a good thing that we travel to ancient times and get the opportunity to cultivate to become immortals? ”
"It's really a good thing, it's like traveling to ancient times."
Conversations like this are everywhere.
There will be great changes in society, but no one is too depressed and decadent, but everyone is more determined to work hard.
Correspondingly, household necessities such as gas have begun to be renovated to be "electrified".
Another period of time passed.
"The phone really doesn't work!"
"Really!"
"Is there any explanation?"
"It's not officially reported yet."
"There is, there is, the communication company has issued an announcement, and the mobile phone operation service has stopped!"
"Also, all the mobile phone companies in the world have announced that they have stopped production!"
"Several carriers have also announced the end of cell phone service!"
"Damn, this is something that can go down in history, right?"
"Could it be that we are going to start a new era?"
"In the future, it will be the first year of Reiki revival, haha, we have witnessed history!"
"I have relatives in the communications company and he just sent a message that he was fired and he. He still hasn't paid off his mortgage! ”
"It's not good, my brother is in a mobile phone company, he was also fired, and he also has a mortgage that he hasn't repaid!"
"The era of wireless communication is over, I wonder how many people are unemployed?"
"I don't know how many people have their mortgages stopped and were auctioned?"
"Woo, I've been fired too, what should I do? Mortgages, car loans, children's school fees, parents' medical bills, woo, I'm not alive anymore."
The end of wireless communication such as mobile phones has triggered a wave of unemployment.
A large number of foreclosure houses appeared.
At one time, there were many people sleeping on the streets.
"After more than ten years of hard work, I finally paid a down payment and bought a house, but now it's gone, it's all gone, I'm not alive!" Someone committed suicide by jumping into a river.
"I'm not alive anymore!" Someone jumped into the river after him.
"The difficulties are only temporary, the revival of Reiki, the future will definitely be better, don't think about it!" Someone was kind enough to persuade him.
Time goes on.
One day.
The news was live, and the host had a serious face: "Now temporarily insert a quick message: due to the continuous increase in the concentration of spiritual energy, the earth's magnetic field has changed dramatically, and the power system will be seriously affected, and there will be power outages in most areas, please prepare accordingly." ”
"Damn, there's really going to be a power outage!"
"yes, I didn't expect this day to come so quickly!"
"After the electricity is out, how can I watch TV, I can't even listen to the radio, right?"
"That is, how will you know about the outside world in the future?"
"Newspapers, you forget, the newspaper industry has been booming again recently, and a lot of money has flowed into the traditional newspaper industry."
"We're degraded, aren't we?"
"Sort of, but if you can cultivate to become an immortal, if you don't have electricity, you won't have electricity."
"Fortunately, the gas at home can be lit with matches, otherwise cooking is a problem."
It didn't take long for this to be reported.
Widespread power outages began across the country.
Only in a few places have newly developed technology been able to maintain electricity for the time being.
But this new technology is still very immature and cannot be promoted.
What happens if there is no power?
The most immediate effect is unemployment.
That's right, if there is no electricity, then many related industries will go bankrupt.
There will be countless people who will lose their jobs.
The wave of unemployment caused by the lack of electricity is far greater than the previous situation where wireless signals disappeared.
In society, a large number of people are unemployed.
Mainly concentrated in the city.
In rural areas, although there is no electricity, it can still survive.
In the city, without electricity, many people are either unable to live, or have no money to live.
The solution to this problem is to expand enrollment.
Expansion of the army.
Expansion of denominations.
Expansion of enrollment in various departments.
Why Expansion?
Because, the revival of Reiki has brought new opportunities and challenges.
Demon beasts attack humans, and someone needs to kill them.
After the revival of Reiki, a corresponding industry will also be formed, which also requires people.
The "technology" after the revival of Reiki also needs to be vigorously developed and people.
Companies, enterprises, and units related to Reiki are developing rapidly.
The inconvenience caused by the lack of electricity is felt by ordinary people in their lives.
At night, it is lit with candles, with kerosene lamps.
Only in a special place did I start using the 'Reiki Lamp'.
The aura lamp is a curing lighting spell on the magic instrument and is used for lighting.
Of course, ordinary people don't know that there is a 'aura lamp'.
Ordinary people have a troublesome life because they have no electricity.
And special places such as the army are feeling great pressure.
A large number of weapons and equipment have become scrap metal and cannot be used.
There are more and more monster attacks.
Somewhere.
A demon tiger that attacks the village.
If the weapons and equipment can be used normally, it is not difficult to kill the demon tiger.
However, a large number of weapons and equipment cannot be used, and the few that can be used are also greatly reduced.
A demon tiger, with the help of cultivators, was killed with great difficulty.
A group of demon wolves attacked the village, causing great damage.
Every day, the number of monsters attacking people is increasing.
The special affairs department and other relevant departments are busy in groups.
Capital.
Special Affairs Office.
"Quick, the demon beasts of the Northeast Changbai Mountain are moving, quickly dispatch the cultivators to deal with it!"
"There is news from Huashan, and the demon beasts have also moved!"
"There are a lot of monsters in Taishan."
"Oh no, there is a colony of demon beasts and ants in the desert, devouring several groups of demon wolves!"
"It's not good, termite colonies appear in Qinling"
"What should I do if I don't have enough manpower?"
"Send a proposal to let the folk masters team up to kill the monsters, and we will distribute the task rewards."
Although there is no power and normal communication is gone, the special affairs department still has a way to communicate instantly through other means.
Zhao Weiguo's office.
It's busy out there.
Zhao Weiguo chatted with Geng Zhi about Zhou Qiang in the office.
"So, the Qiangsheng Farm didn't hand over the demon beast meat to us according to the regulations?" Zhao Weiguo looked unhappy.
"That's right, Zhao, see if you send Zhou Qiang to the action team." Geng Zhidao. The squad is going to kill monsters.
In their eyes, Zhou Qiang was a 'genius' cultivator.
But I only practiced exercises, spells or something, basically didn't practice a few, and I didn't know how to fight.
If Zhou Qiang is sent to the action team, it is basically to send Zhou Qiang to death.
Zhao Weiguo's eyes flashed: "Then let Zhou Qiang go to the action team." "Zhou Qiang is disobedient, Zhou Qiang's cultivation talent is still extremely high, so Zhou Qiang will die.
"By the way, Zhao, Zhou Qiang is now in Qingjiang Province with a small class, will anyone stop the appointment?" Geng Zhi reminded him.
"Block? Who will stand in the way? Zhao Weiguo smiled contemptuously, "Who will meddle if there are no relatives and no reason?" ”
"Zhao, I'll send an appointment right away." Geng Zhi hurriedly went.
Thanh Giang Province.
Nanjiang City.
Nanshan Community.
"Recently, everyone has been in a good state of study, we must continue to maintain it, and I believe that we will be able to get started soon" Zhou Qiang is giving a serious lecture.
He lectures excellently.
The people who listened to the lecture respected him very much.
Whether it is a dignitary or a business elite, they all look at Zhou Qiang differently.
Suddenly.
The classroom door was pushed open.
"Zhou Qiang, right? Your order has arrived, so report to the Secret Service Task Force! A young man directly interrupted Zhou Qiang's class and shouted at Zhou Qiang.
"Who are you?" A certain white shirt who was listening to the lecture was not happy, he had just realized something, and was interrupted by the young man who suddenly came in.
"I'm Zhen Jian, the clerk of the Special Affairs Department, and I'm here to convey the order of the Special Affairs Department, what's the matter, you want to stop it?" Zhen Jian didn't give face to the white shirt at all. He had nothing to fear. Because, his grandfather is in the late stage of Qi training, and he is in a high position. He's a tough backer, and he's not afraid of anyone.
"I, I." The white shirt wanted to say something, but was persuaded by the people around him. Someone recognized Zhen Jian and knew that Zhen Jian had a background that was not easy to mess with.
"Hmph, don't meddle!" Zhen Jian reprimanded, walked to Zhou Qiang's side, slapped the order in front of Zhou Qiang, and shouted: "Zhou Qiang, do you hear it, you must go to the action team to report immediately." Also, the villa you allocated will be repossessed, and all your benefits for this month will be cancelled. ”
Zhen Jian's arrival, Zhou Qiang was not surprised.
He already understood what was going on.
"This is inexplicable revenge from Zhao Weiguo and Geng Zhi."
"It's hard for little people to live!"
"Unexpectedly, I am a golden immortal, because I don't want to show my face, I just want to live a quiet and ordinary life with my family, and I am treated like this."
"Weakness is always the original sin."
"If you want to have a peaceful life, you must show the ability to make others dare not provoke. Or, take out the groveling of the flames! ”
Zhou Qiang smiled coldly and said, "I don't accept the transfer order of the special affairs department, I resign and quit." ”
"Quit? Hmph, even if you resign, you can't help it!
Lao Tzu is going to abolish you today, so you can leave the special office! Zhou Qiang's reaction seemed to be expected by Zhen Jian, Zhen Jian wanted to abolish Zhou Qiang's cultivation first, and then let Zhou Qiang leave.
Zhen Jian's voice did not fall.
Just do it.
A 'Talisman' was activated and smashed at Zhou Qiang.
"Bump!" A bang rang out.
"Ahh
"Ah, Zhou Qiang, you dare to abolish my cultivation, I want you to die!" It turned out that the person who fell to the ground was not Zhou Qiang, but Zhen Jian.
Not only was he knocked to the ground, but he was also deposed.
"I'm going to kill you!" Zhen Jian shouted as he took out the spirit talisman again.
But he didn't have a chance to use it.
Because Zhou Qiang stepped on him and fainted.
Zhou Qiang looked at the students under the podium, "I'm no longer a person from the special affairs department, nor a teacher, I'm leaving." ”
After Zhou Qiang finished speaking, he left.
But the students in the audience, one in a white shirt, suddenly spoke: "Teacher Zhou, this class is not over yet, you have to finish before you leave." ”
"Huh." Zhou Qiang sneered and left directly.
"It's really the other way around! Hurry up and notify the special affairs department, you must punish Zhou Qiang severely! The sound of shouting in the classroom reached Zhou Qiang's ears.
Anyway, Zhou Qiang is their teacher, they don't miss the old feelings at all, and they have to deal with Zhou Qiang.
Zhou Qiang went back to the villa directly.
"Dad, Mom, Laneige, I've been dismissed, let's go back to my hometown." Zhou Qiang briefly talked about the situation.
"Then go back, this place, in fact, I'm not used to staying in this place." Zhou Dashi didn't say anything, just packed up his things and prepared to leave.
Zhou Qiang was suppressed, they knew more or less.
They persuaded Zhou Qiang to find a backer, but Zhou Qiang didn't do it.
Under normal circumstances, Zhou Qiang should take refuge in a certain 'master', apprentice or give heavy gifts or something. That's what 'being in the world' should do.
Now, Zhou Qiang is not looking for a backer, so the sequelae are coming.
People who have no backing are bullied, and there is no exception.
A few hours later.
Zhou Qiang drove and left with the family.
He thought someone would come looking for trouble, but to his surprise, no one came.
The reason why no one came was also very simple, although Zhou Qiang was in the middle stage of Qi training, he easily defeated Zhen Jian, who used the spirit rune, and abolished Zhen Jian's cultivation.
This made others unable to figure out Zhou Qiang's true strength.
People who have no direct conflict with Zhou Qiang are unwilling to risk coming to Zhou Qiang for trouble.
So, Zhou Qiang left like this.
As for Zhen Jian, he is from Zhao Weiguo's side.
Zhen Jian has done similar things many times, and he has abolished many 'genius' cultivations.
I didn't expect it to overturn this time.
Zhen Jian was abolished and cultivated, and hurriedly asked people to send him to the magic capital to find his grandfather.
In this way, no one came here for Zhou Qiang, and he returned to his hometown smoothly.
Luoxia Village.
Zhou's villa.
Zhou Qiang's family is back.
"Zhou Qiang, I advise you to go to the special office to confess your guilt, and don't affect your family!" Zhou Yan's voice of reprimand sounded in the sound transmission jade talisman.
Zhou Qiang's affairs were not hidden from relatives and friends.
Zhou Qiang notified them as soon as possible. Zhou Qiang did this to see the reaction of 'relatives and friends'.
The sound transmission jade talisman was given to them by Zhou Qiang before.
The sound transmission jade talisman is very rare, and it requires mana consumption to use it, so non-cultivators can't use it.
Ordinary people also don't have a sound transmission jade note.
Zhou Qiang has it, because Zhou Qiang can refine the sound transmission jade talisman by himself.
The sound transmission jade note can record the mana breath, and it is also divided into the sound transmission master note and the sound transmission sub-note.
For different usages, there are different sound transmission jade notes.
Zhou Qiang's sound transmission jade note is relatively simple, and he can only contact one-on-one.
"If I confess my sin, I will die." Zhou Qiang replied coldly.
"You won't die, I asked, you will only be arranged into the 'Pioneer Battalion', as long as you go to complete the task, no one will trouble you." Zhou Qiang's situation, Zhou Yan asked someone.
For practitioners who do not obey discipline or make mistakes, there is a special place in the Special Affairs Office, which is the 'Pioneer Camp'.
The pioneer battalion also has another name, called "death squads".
Those who have joined the death squad, as long as they do not die, will continue to carry out dangerous missions until they die.
Zhou Qiang directly disconnected from contact. He was very disappointed in Zhou Yan.
In my memory, the little girl who was tugging at the corner of his clothes and calling his brother could no longer be found.
"It's changed, and as I've gotten older, everything has changed." Zhou Qiang felt a little uncomfortable.
It didn't take long.
"Brother Qiang, why don't you hide?" Yang Dalin and Shen Peng came. After they heard that Zhou Qiang had an accident, they hurried over.
"Where to hide? What about my family? "Seeing that the two of them are small and have not 'changed their minds', Zhou Qiang is somewhat relieved.
"Brother Qiang, we will take care of your family, you go to the mountains to find a place to hide, this is 'beast repellent powder', ordinary demon beasts don't like this taste, it can help you avoid demon beasts."
"I" Zhou Qiang just wanted to say something. Suddenly looked at Luoxia Mountain.
In the mountains, a large group of demon beasts is gathering.
The beast tide is about to be formed.
"Da Lin, Pengzi, you believe my words, and now take your family to Luoxia Village immediately. Your house was inhabited before, but now it's vacant and still inhabitable. ”
"Why did you move here?" Yang Dalin and Shen Peng were puzzled.
"The beast tide is coming." Zhou Qiang did not hide it.
"Beast tide?" Yang Dalin was taken aback, "Brother Qiang, you mean the demon beast tide?" ”
"That's right, I feel that the monster tide is coming, and the direction is Pingning County. There is a lot of bad luck there. ”
"What about Luoxia Village? Isn't it also?" Shen Peng asked urgently.
"There are no people in Luoxia Village now, and the demon beasts can't look down on it. It's okay here for the time being. ”
"Don't say it, Pengzi, pick up someone right away!" Yang Dalin shouted, pulled Shen Peng and ran out. At the same time, he took out the sound transmission jade note and asked the family to quickly pack up their things. He completely believed in Zhou Qiang at the moment.
"Xiaoqiang, the beast tide is coming?" Liu Ying hurriedly asked.
"Yes."
"Is it from the direction of Pingning County?"
"Yes."
"Then, Xiaoyan is still in the city." Liu Ying hurriedly used the jade talisman to contact Zhou Yan, "Hey, Xiaoyan, the beast tide is coming, come to Luoxia Village!" ”
"Huh? You're already on your way?
You want to strengthen the farm?!
No, what about Jiacheng? And Zheng Sheng, and Zheng Sheng's parents, let them come too!
The beast tide is coming! ”
Liu Ying looked disappointed.
Zhou Yan was on the way here alone, and she wanted to ask for Zhou Qiang's farm.
She didn't believe what Liu Ying said about the beast tide coming.
Zhou Dashi was using the jade talisman to contact relatives and friends, "Hey, the beast tide is coming, come and hide in Luoxia Village!" ”
Zhang Lanzhi was also contacting her parents, "Hey, Dad, Mom, do you have any beast tides there?" Go to the magic capital, it's safer there. Live in my house and Xiaoqiang's. Zhang Lanzhi's parents are not in Qingjiang Province, but they are also in a small county.
Zhang Lanzhi wants her parents to go to the magic capital.
If there is a beast tide, the magic capital is still relatively safe.
Zhou Qiang looked outside.
He took the time to make a fortune telling.
Blood rushed to the sky, and blood flowed like a river.
"Shall I make a move and become a savior?"
