Chapter 55: The Desertification Town
After Chen Yuan practiced boxing in the morning, he simply ate some food and went down the mountain alone to collect food, and when their family of three came to the temple, there was not much food left. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Chen Yuan strode down the mountain with the gasoline canister, yesterday he pumped out all the gasoline in the fuel tank of the motorcycle that was thrown at the bottom of the mountain, so that now he has to carry the gasoline down the mountain again to refuel one of the motorcycles.
Chen Yuan thought yesterday that there would be a lot of food stored in the Nanhua Temple, and his family could borrow some food from the three monks in the temple in a short period of time, but who knew that this would be the case now.
Lu Yuan and the three monks are obviously martial arts haters, and I don't know if they really didn't collect a large amount of food or are unwilling to provide food for Chenyuan's family, anyway, Chenyuan had to go to find food for his family of three on the first day he came.
Needless to say, there must be no food in the small villages near the small temple in Nanhua, and if there are any, they have already been collected and eaten by the three monks of Lu Yuan.
Chen Yuan didn't know why the three of them didn't go to live in the survivor base and stayed in such a small temple, but it didn't prevent him from leaving his parents alone in this temple.
Since Lu Yuan and the three monks have been able to live safely in this temple for so long, it is enough to prove that there is no danger near the temple, or there was one, but it has already been swept away by the three of them.
Chen Yuan drove a motorcycle, and when he rushed to the front, he didn't rush in the direction of the Tiandu survivor base, because the place close to the Tiandu base, he didn't have to think about it to know that the food left in those places was already very scarce, and now the survivors who were swarming out of the base were sweeping it, and there would definitely be no scum left.
Chen Yuan had to walk back again and drive his motorcycle to the front.
Due to the fact that this country road has been cleaned by the martial arts team once, there will be no abandoned cars and other objects blocking the middle of the road on the road, and Chen Yuan naturally moves forward at a speed of seventy or eighty yards per hour.
After more than an hour's car, Chen Yuan was already seventy or eighty miles away from the Nanhua Temple, and he felt that such a long distance should be far enough, so he drove off the main road at a fork in the road in front of him and drove the car to the simple country road.
He looked at the map and knew that the fork in the road led to a small town, which was called Dongming Town.
Dongming Town had about a few thousand permanent residents before the end of the world, so there would be about tens of thousands of zombies in that town now.
Of course, this is not the focus of Chen Yuan's consideration, the point is that this Dongming town is a gathering point for poetry collections in dozens of small villages around it, and Chen Yuan believes that even if this town is swept by other survivors, there will always be some food missing.
He doesn't have many requirements for food, as long as he can find one or two bags of white rice, oil, salt, and other foods that are enough for his family of three to eat for several months.
In a few months, Chen Yuan and his family may no longer live in this temple, and the excessive food he collects now will only be cheaper for the three monks of Lu Yuan.
Along the way, although Chen Yuan did not leave his sword, he had no chance to make a move, so Chen Yuan saw all the beautiful scenery of the countryside along the way, but his mood was not good.
The surrounding environment is too dead and silent, as if there is only one living creature like Chen Yuan in this world.
No matter how you look at it, this is not a normal phenomenon, because in the pre-apocalyptic world, this land must be full of humans living on this land, and after the outbreak of the apocalypse, they turned into zombies, so this land should also be full of scattered zombies!
Could it be that there are survivors living here all the time in this vicinity, and they have wiped out all the zombies in the surrounding dozens of kilometers, Chen Yuan continued to rush to Dongming Town vigilantly with deep suspicion. ...,
Chen Yuan is here to collect food, the presence of survivors in this vicinity is not good news for him, the presence of survivors means that there is no food in Dongming Town.
In the post-apocalyptic era, most of the survivors are only consuming rather than producing, except for humans living in large human survivor bases.
After all, the living resources that were originally used to supply billions of human beings for consumption now only need to be provided for tens of millions of human consumption, and the living human beings are just eating up the mountain, which will only be consumed after a few years, and they do not need to rush to produce now.
It didn't take long for Chen Yuan to drive a motorcycle to Dongming Town, but the Dongming Town in front of him surprised him greatly.
"Barren", Dongming Town is barren and dilapidated, so serious that it is more dilapidated and barren than some dilapidated ancient towns, and Dongming Town is now like a small ghost.
Chen Yuan stepped into Dongming Town alone, and he clearly felt that this town was full of death.
There are no people, no zombies, and no animals in the town, even the so-ubiquitous Xiaoqiang and flies do not exist.
There is only a living animal like Chen Yuan in this Dongming town, and what is even more strange is that the buildings in the town, whether they are already very dilapidated brick houses or brand new buildings, have only been in such a short period of time after a few months in the last days, they are all dilapidated.
It's as if they've been here for hundreds of years, and not a single living guest has visited them in those hundreds of years.
Chen Yuan stepped on the dusty town road, from one end of the town to the other end, he was very sure that all the living things in this Dongming town were completely dead.
Not only will there be no living animals in the town, but there will certainly not be a single bit of food that will survive to this day.
The west of Dongming Town used to be a fertile farmland, and it was very flat and vast, and people could only see the high mountains and mountains standing in the distance, and could not see the end of this farmland, which showed how wide this field was.
Before the end of the world, Dongming Town used to be a major grain production base in this area, but now, what Chen Yuan saw was not a green and secluded field, but a golden sea of sand.
This once fertile land, after a few months of devastation in the last days, has evolved into a huge desert, no wonder Dongming Town will turn from a town full of zombies into a ghostly dead city in just a few months.
It's just that what makes Chen Yuan feel strange is that when Chen Yuan enters Dongming Town, there is no sign of desertification at all, and the desertification situation seems to be invisibly isolated by this death town.
After seeing that there could be no food in this gradually desertified Dongming town, Chen Yuan just briefly investigated and exited the town, he planned to retreat to the main road and choose a small town for food collection in the advance of dozens of miles.
With the map he carried, Chen Yuan carefully checked his route to several nearby towns, and he suddenly found that the direction to the west of Dongming Town was the large nuclear power plant outside the outskirts of S City.
Not only is there a huge and terrifying sea of zombies in that area, but the zombies in the nearby area are still pouring towards that area, so the fact that there are no zombies in Dongming Town makes sense.
Chen Yuan guessed that the zombies in Dongming Town had long been attracted by the mysterious power of the nuclear power plant, and the originally fertile land was desertified, and he estimated that it was also caused by the leakage of the nuclear power plant!
Regardless of whether there is really a relationship between the two or not, Chen Yuan's mission today is to collect food, so he has to continue to rush forward and go to other small towns to collect food.
