Doomsday Rise

"My name is Xie Shiqiang. I think you need a guide. Dust? Yuan? Literature√Xue.com" Seeing Liu Wei'an and the others looking at him, the tall and thin young man grinned, revealing a bright smile.

"Can you tell me everything I want to know?" Liu Wei'an asked back.

"I can only tell you what I know." Xie Shiqiang smiled slightly, "Get out of the car, everyone. If you don't have a destination, I advise you to walk. The gas price here is three times the normal situation."

"Walk with me." Liu Weian got out of the car, waved his hand, and threw a golden light over.

"You will make this trip worthwhile." Xie Shiqiang's eyes lit up, and he caught the golden light with both hands. It was a gold coin, and it was a gold coin in his hand. The smile on his face grew brighter.

"I want to know the current situation." Liu Wei'an asked.

"The most powerful is naturally the city lord Ma Xuewang. The military and political power is in his hands, followed by the four major families. The other three families are relatively low-key. The Xiang family knows that the public security in the city is basically theirs, so , you'd better be careful when you meet them, otherwise you can just make a crime and get someone into the bureau. Although you can't die, you will have to shed a layer of skin. In addition, the Bai family has a special status. Cause trouble, so as long as you don't take the initiative to provoke, nothing will happen, and then there is the Su family, and the defense of the wall is done by the Su family. As long as you don't provoke these people, basically there will be no life-threatening." Xie Shiqiang said.

"Is life still safe?" Wu Lili was puzzled.

"The restoration of order is just an official statement, and it's aimed at the zombie area. In fact—" Xie Shiqiang made an expression that you know.

"What do you mean by the severe food shortage here?" Liu Wei'an asked.

"Did you get interrogated when you came in?" Xie Shiqiang asked without answering.

"Yes, and you have to pay an entry tax of 10,000 coppers." The repairman was indignant.

"I'm going! These corrupt officials have raised their prices again. When I came in, it was only 5,000." Xie Shiqiang gritted his teeth immediately when he heard this, but immediately realized that he had lost his composure, and smiled embarrassedly at Liu Wei'an, "I originally came here Most of the people are fleeing, and they don’t have much money on them. After being searched by the door, we people earn even less. Recently, there are fewer and fewer people. Now I only dare to eat one meal a day.”

"Does the government not care?" Wu Lili asked.

"Now Ma Xuecheng is in charge. He only cares about the rich. He won't worry about us poor people.

"Xie Shiqiang said angrily.

"How could it be that Ma Xuecheng is in charge? Where is Ma Xuewang?" Liu Wei'an asked. Although he slaughtered his son, Ma Xuewang is indeed a more courageous person. Among the nearby provinces, the conditions in Tianfeng Province are the worst. Yes, but the economy is the best developed and the richest province. All of this is due to Ma Xuewang.

"I don't know. Except for the fact that Governor Ma showed up once at the beginning of the zombie outbreak, he disappeared afterwards. I don't know what happened." Xie Shiqiang seemed to keep this topic secret, and said seriously: "Because many The people who fled here did not bring food, which caused a serious shortage of food here, but there are more and more people, I advise you to leave here and go to other provinces if you have nothing important to do."

Xie Shiqiang paused, and then said, "Of course, if you have money, it's another matter."

"The price of entry here has been raised so high, so you don't want people to enter?" Liu Wei'an looked at Xie Shiqiang.

"I'm not sure, but this possibility is very high." Xie Shiqiang said.

There are many people who set up stalls on the street. These people are not in good spirits, they have disheveled faces, no smiles on their faces, and their speech is weak. Liu Wei'an suddenly stopped.

"My lord, do you want to buy jade? I suggest you go to the jade shop in front to buy it. Ma Lao Er's asking price is too expensive." Xie Shiqiang said. It turned out that the place where Liu Weian stopped happened to be a jade vendor, a heart-shaped necklace, rubies, and passion.

"Xie Shiqiang, you bastard, do you want to spoil my business?" Ma Laoer was furious. If he wasn't worried about scaring Liu Wei'an away, he would have punched Xie Shiqiang twice. He gritted his teeth and said, "This is my family heirloom. In this world, not to mention 50,000 coppers, 500,000 is only a fraction of this necklace."

"People are starving to death, so what about fifty million?" Xie Shiqiang said disdainfully.

Ma Lao Er was speechless immediately.

"Give me a sincere price. If it's what I want, I'll buy it." Liu Wei'an said flatly. The price written on the paper by Ma Laoer is 50,000 copper coins.

"40,000 copper coins is the least, it can't be lower." Ma Laoer stretched out a slap, hesitated for a moment, and buckled his thumb down.

"Here you are." Liu Weian took out four gold coins and threw them to Ma Lao Er, and put away the necklace. Seeing that Liu Wei'an was so forthright, and there were several vendors nearby, his eyes became hot, and he couldn't help shouting, "Master, the stubborn stones I have here are also good, and they only cost 30,000 copper coins."

"What are your stubborn stones? My wood carvings are fine products. They only cost 20,000 copper plates."

"Let's take a look, my son. The Mongolian knife is handmade. It can be used for self-defense and storage. It only costs 30,000 coppers. As long as you buy it, you will definitely not suffer a loss."

...

"My lord, you don't actually have to pay such a high price. Those jade shops only offered 35,000 coppers. This necklace is not a family heirloom of the second child. I don't know where he got it." Xie Shiqiang followed. Liu Wei'an said from behind.

Liu Wei'an smiled. Although he didn't understand these gems and root carvings, he could tell that in the prosperous age, these things must be worth a lot, but now they have become the price of cabbage. 40,000 coppers may be a lot in Xie Shiqiang's eyes, but he doesn't care.

"Give it to me?" Wu Lili looked at the necklace handed to her, her eyes lit up.

"I wouldn't buy it if it wasn't for you." Liu Weian said seriously.

"Yeah!" Wu Lili happily took the necklace, and the little complaint in her heart disappeared in an instant. Although she is magnanimous, Liu Weian is so worried about the safety of other girls, it's no wonder she isn't jealous, but she knows that the matter is urgent and hasn't said it, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't have a lump in her heart. And now, none of that exists.

"Uh..." Xie Shiqiang said weakly to Wu Lili: "Although the security here is good, I suggest not to wear the necklace."

"Why?" Wu Lili had already put on the necklace.

"Nothing!" Xie Shiqiang didn't dare to look any further. The red gem is so hot that it just fell into the cleavage, which clearly tempts people to commit crimes.

"Can we buy weapons here?" Liu Wei'an asked.

"You want to buy weapons?" Xie Shiqiang was surprised.

"Could it be possible to stay here forever?" Liu Wei'an asked back.

"Yes, yes, but the price—" Xie Shiqiang said.

"Help me get in touch. When I leave, I want to see the weapon." Liu Weian looked at Xie Shiqiang, "Can it be done?"

"Yes!" Xie Shiqiang hurriedly said, he could feel that if he said no at this time, Liu Weian would immediately choose another guide.

"Big sister, you can buy me, as long as one hundred copper coins are enough." A dirty little girl timidly pulled Wu Lili's clothes, pleading on her face, but looked at the elephant from the corner of her eyes, with fear. It seems that this big man is giving her too much pressure.

"Go away, go away, don't block the way." Xie Shiqiang hurriedly drove the little girl away.

"Wait, do you have sympathy for such a small child, why are you so fierce?" Wu Lili said displeased.

The little girl was frightened like a bunny, backed away a few steps, saw Wu Lili's kind expression, hope rose in her heart again, wanted to leave, but reluctantly said cautiously: "Big sister, please do me a favor, I Mom hasn't eaten for days."

Wu Lili followed the little girl's gaze. A woman in tattered clothes curled her body into a corner of the wall. Her hair was like dry grass. Because she lowered her head, she couldn't see her face, but her exposed hands and feet showed that she was long. Time is malnourished and skinny. Immediately, sympathy flooded.

"Wei'an, look—" Wu Lili looked at Liu Wei'an pitifully, with all the money on him.

"Take it, buy some food for your mother, we don't buy you, we buy you, who will take care of your mother?" Liu Weian counted 30 copper coins and put them in the little girl's hand, and said softly: " Go ahead and don't let your mother go hungry."

"Thank you, big brother and big sister, you are all good people." The little girl bowed deeply, staring at Liu Wei'an and Wu Lili for a few seconds, as if she wanted to see their faces clearly before turning around run away.

"There are too many people like this." Xie Shiqiang said with emotion, his tone complicated. Standing at the back, he clearly saw that Liu Weian had a gold coin sandwiched between thirty copper plates. If Liu Weian gave a gold coin directly, he would not be so emotional, and if he gave 30 copper plates directly, he would do nothing. It's complicated, but hiding the gold coin in the copper plate touched his heart hard. Dozens of copper coins, in broad daylight, no one dares to act arbitrarily, after all, the security team is still there, but if it is a gold coin, it is definitely enough to make people commit crimes.

He has seen a lot of people who do bad things with good intentions. For example, Liu Weian has done good things and thought out the way forward for others. This is the first time he has seen someone.

"It's just a clear conscience." Liu Wei'an said indifferently.

"When you leave, can you take me with you?" Xie Shiqiang looked at Liu Wei'an hopefully.

"Where is the food buyer, take me there." Liu Weian smiled, neither agreed nor refused.

"Follow me." Xie Shiqiang understood Liu Weian's meaning, everything depends on performance.

The original supermarket has now become a military center. Dozens of soldiers with live ammunition are waiting at the gate. People who buy food lined up at the gate are anxious when they enter, and grit their teeth when they come out. Speed ​​away.

"They—why do they have this expression?" Wu Lili was curious.

"Because of the price here—" Xie Shiqiang smiled wryly, and after thinking for a while, he finally said a more appropriate word: "Cannibalism!"
