MTL - Inside and Outside World-Chapter 686 : Victims
?In a level 5 world with special powers, the luck of a country is very important. When the country is strong, when the luck is suppressed, the country will be prosperous and the people will be safe. When the country declines, monsters and ghosts will appear one after another, just like in the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story". At the time of decline, even monsters can become national teachers, and all the ministers of the court are eaten up with human skins.
Now, after the dragon's veins were cut off, China is facing a drought, from Xi'an to Baoji, Xianyang, Weinan, Tongchuan... It can be said that the entire Guanzhong area is shrouded in scorching heat, which was originally the hottest time in August and September. For some reason, it has become hotter than in previous years, and there has been no rain in the past few months, and now the heat hits, and it immediately fell into the worst drought.
The surface temperature has definitely exceeded 40 degrees.
Full of deep cracks, as if covered with countless scars, not a single piece of grass can be seen, the wells are dry and the rivers are cut off. green.
Without food, people can still eat trees and grass roots, wild vegetables and Guanyin soil. What if there is no water?
There is no trace of cooking smoke everywhere in the countryside, full of dilapidated and desolate dead air, and there are newly buried loess graves everywhere in the mass graves. Since you can't survive, then run away and leave your hometown to find a place with water. Groups of farmers walked out of their hometowns under the drought, trudging on the barren scorched earth in the scorching air and under the scorching sun.
Leaning on a stick, Li Erhei was walking with difficulty. He felt smoke coming from his throat. He stuck out his tongue and licked his chapped lips, but there was no trace of saliva. The soles of his feet had already worn out blood blisters while walking, and they were on fire.
He is the second son of Li Tiezhu. Now there is severe drought and no water, and he has to run away from home in order to survive. His elder brother Li Dahei is carrying a pole, panting like a cow, and the sound of hula hula from his chest is as if The bellows was broken, and the old mother of the two was sitting on one side of the pole. As for the father of the two, he died because of fighting for water on the way to escape.
The mother of the two brothers is more than 50 years old, but rural women in their 50s in this era are as old as an old man who will be 70 or 80 years old in the future. She wears a bamboo hat on her head to block the sun. , curled up in the broken bamboo basket carried by the burden, and put some luggage of broken household items in the basket on the other side.
This old woman has worked on the land all her life, keeping herself safe. She never thought that one day she would leave her hometown with her neck buried in soil. Looking at the refugees who had to flee for their lives due to the severe drought on the road, those carrying bags and leaning on branches, the same Those who carried the burdens and those who pushed the wheelbarrows all looked yellow, emaciated and weak. Everyone had expressionless faces and cloudy eyes.
Leaving the country and becoming a refugee, it can be said that there is a near death, but staying in the hometown is also a death. I don’t know who spread the news. Qin Shihuang was resurrected in Lishan. With the first emperor, he can rescue the suffering Li people. These people are also in their hearts There is a glimmer of hope for life.
There were fallen corpses scattered on both sides of the road. The shriveled and shriveled corpses were turned into mummified corpses like rotten tree roots by the sun. Some of the refugees walking under the scorching sun fell down from time to time. Li, who didn't even have a name, saw this scene. My brother's old lady just wanted to shed tears, but she could not cry any tears after only drinking two sips of water in the three days of severe drought, so she had to keep wiping her dry eye sockets.
"thump!"
Li Dahei, who was carrying the load, suddenly lost his feet and fell to the ground, causing the two baskets to fall sideways.
"Old lady!"
Li Dahei struggled to get up, and Li Erhei, who was next to him, quickly threw away the stick and helped the old woman who was thrown out. The old woman opened her eyes and saw the thin faces of the two sons, the cracked mouths, as dry as a dry well Her eyes became moist again, and she said with difficulty: "Son, mother can't do it anymore, just leave me by the side of the road."
"Mother, what are you talking about! I heard that the First Emperor is in Xi'an, and we will bring you to Xi'an alive."
"Son, mother doesn't want you to bury me with this old bone. There is no water. How can I walk to Xi'an alive?"
"There is still water here, and there is still half a capsule of water."
Li Dahei took out a shriveled skin bag and stuffed it in the old woman's hand.
"Mom, drink."
"Son..." The old woman grabbed her skin, and muddy tears flowed from her eyes and formed two gullies on her face. She quickly stuck out her tongue and licked the tears into her mouth.
This is water, not to be wasted.
Some of the refugees passing by saw the skin in the old woman's hand, and a wolf-like light flashed in their dull eyes, but seeing that Li Dahei and Li Erhei were both tall and powerful, they had to put out Thoughts of looting.
"Brother, let me come."
"I'll come, and you'll come again when I can't do it."
Li Dahei gritted his teeth and took courage again, shaking on the road. He only felt that both his feet and his stomach were on fire, and his whole body seemed to be on fire. The coarse grain noodles made of wheat bran and corn that he ate earlier The bread has been digested long ago, and what's more terrible is that it has not touched a drop of water for half a day, and it is walking with a burden, which has reached its limit.
Walking desperately, he didn't have the strength to pay attention to the old woman in the basket. He just wanted to walk a little longer before his strength was exhausted, and then let his younger brother Sun Erhei pick him up. The two brothers brought the old woman to Xi'an alive.
I don't know how long I walked, and suddenly I heard a cry of exclamation from the refugees in the distance.
"Water, someone is sending water!"
"water?"
The most precious thing under severe drought is undoubtedly water! Immediately, those refugees who were thirsty and almost went crazy had some strength from their bodies, their red eyes quickened their pace, and some of them even started to gallop.
"Water? Brother, there is water!"
Li Erhei just found it unbelievable, but so many people started to go crazy, it couldn't be fake, he quickly looked at his wife excitedly: "We are saved, my mother is saved."
The stooped old woman in the bamboo basket curled up into a ball and remained motionless.
An ominous premonition welled up in his heart, and Li Dahei quickly put down his burden, reached out to his old mother with trembling hands, and lifted his crooked head.
With a withered face and red and swollen eye sockets, the hands of the dead old woman, as thin as a chicken's claw, tightly grasped the skin bag filled with water, and the skin bag that was originally shriveled became bulging.
"Mother, mother..."
The person is dead, and the living will continue. The two brothers buried the old woman by the side of the road, built a pile of loess, and rushed to the place where the crowd was rushing.
A streamer hung outside a shed, with three large characters written on it:
"Water Point"
A man in a black robe stood in the shed, in front of several large tanks filled with clean water. The refugees outside were holding leather pouches or broken bowls.
This man is of course Yan Luo, or "Qin Shihuang" to be precise.
There was a severe drought in Guanzhong. In fact, from the end of the Qing Dynasty to the melee between the warlords and the Republic of China, there were various disasters everywhere, and the ground was full of hunger. If there was a lack of food, Qin Shihuang would not be able to rescue the refugees no matter how capable he was. But lack of water, gold, wood, water, fire and soil The power of the five elements includes "water". As the emperor, he also has the responsibility of the emperor. He set up a water supply point here to distribute some water to the refugees so that they can walk to Xi'an alive.
When the water in the jar was scooped up, he used the force of his water to create a stream of water to fill the jar.
"Immortal, the immortal has come to save us!"
One by one, the refugees kowtowed to Yan Luo.
"Mom, why don't you wait to die..."
Li Dahei and Li Erhei saw the water in the big vat, and after the cow drank it, they looked at the half-full skin~www.novelbuddy.com~ The two brothers were finally able to cry tears, and the tears rained majesticly.
"Or not."
Yan Luo was secretly thinking, even if he set up a place to replenish water sources here, how many people could he save? We must find a way to solve the source of this drought.
On the other hand, the consciousness of the main body and the avatar are connected, and the Five Elements Alliance has been ordered to take action to prepare to take in and rescue the refugees. Although Xi'an was also hit by a disaster, due to the construction of water conservancy in the first half of the year, and Xi'an is surrounded by eight waters, the water source is sufficient. With the help of Tesla, another reservoir was built, so the city is not short of water for the time being.
In addition, should Qin Shihuang practice with the power of faith?
These refugees were rescued at the time of death, and the gratitude and reverence generated, this kind of spiritual power, is much more powerful than the incense vows collected by the white lotus sect recruiting believers. Once the method of the white lotus Guanyin Sutra is used You can get a lot of power of faith in a short time.
