Jean Of Bright City 13

The sky in the distance was a large area of ​​darkness, and only the sky behind him was clear. Gene stood quietly on the edge of a mountain. From a distance, he could still vaguely see the previous city. They were already on the road around the mountain. Been driving for two days.

Because the car is used for charging, although it has a gasoline engine, according to calculations, they can only reach a small city below the highest peak at a speed of 40 kilometers per hour.

There is still half a day's journey to reach the small city. Jean and the others only hope that the city can have a certain order. They want to use the grains obtained from Sanggu to carry out some cultivation experiments. This point is that Werther is The most effective.

As long as the experiment is successful, they can find some land to cultivate more crops and start food reserves. If they don't start quickly, when the sun disappears, it will be the moment when mankind encounters a disaster.

The speed at which the planet was completely wrapped far exceeded the calculations of several people, and the speed slowed down. According to the current situation, it will take up to 1 to 2 years.

"Hurry up and eat."

Ellie ran over and shouted, and Gene nodded and threw away the cigarette in his hand. A burst of aroma wafted in. These days, they all eat pancakes. This kind of thing is very hungry and is made of highland barley.

Basically, it can meet certain nutritional needs of human beings, and there are some potatoes that are easy to store. This is also what Werther intends to study. To increase the yield of potatoes, these two crops can keep humans full and continue to live after the sun disappears. go down.

Witnessing the end of the city, the eight people knew that the human society was completely over, and it was impossible for anyone to build a civilized and orderly city.

The eight of them also decided to find some people who are willing to follow them and build a small human society. According to the calculation, it only needs a maximum of 500 people. Such a small society is relatively simple and stable in structure, and there will not be too many disputes. .

Li Chu looked at the map on the computer. The city they were about to arrive in was a relatively backward city. This city was just below the highest peak in the world, and it mainly lived on tourism.

This small city is full of places to eat and live, and basically there is no industrialization. Eight people do not hold much hope, because even if they take root there, once the living environment deteriorates, the big city below People will still come here.

They only intend to stop to finish the research, breeding and cultivation of some crops, then leave and go directly to the base in the mountains.

Tang Rao can't eat a little today. She doesn't know why her appetite has been bad recently, and she doesn't feel too hungry, and she won't suffer too much physical loss. No matter what, she's in good shape.

"Let's go when you're almost done eating."

The three of them came along and saw some people fleeing. They waved their hands and wanted to get into the car, but the eight did not stop because the supplies on the car, including the car's electricity, could not allow them to carry more people.

On some roads in the distance, people can still be seen. Many of them can only walk on foot. The situation in that city is probably very bad. After the war, some facilities were destroyed, and I am afraid that there will be problems with electricity.

Although they repaired the thermal power plant, some of the equipment required regular maintenance and replacement, and some of the things they made were not durable because there were no suitable materials in that city.

The same goes for the communication station. Too many materials are missing there. In order to make missiles, many materials have been taken away. Once there is a problem, it cannot be repaired. If they are still there, there may be a way, but now there are only two places. If something goes wrong, they can't fix it.

Werther also learned about the situation of the farmland from Sanggu's subordinates, and also used the aerial camera to see the situation of the fields is very bad. Obviously, they will not take care of the fields. not cultivated.

Many residents of the original city basically fled to death, because most of the people came here without interruption, and the city was already overloaded.

After eating, the group started to hit the road again. The car was moving slowly on the road, and many abandoned vehicles could be seen along the way.

These cars are all materials that can be used, and everyone will still get out of the car to see what can be removed from the car, and remove the ones that can be used directly.

After a while, a lot of people with bags appeared in front of them. When Gene drove the car past, a lot of people came around, and many people looked yellow and thin.

They have been gone for a month, and they are running out of water and food. Many people begged Gene for some supplies. Gu Yi and Ellie couldn't bear it, but Gene decisively refused.

"Sorry, just walk away."

"Can you give me some water, sir?"

Werther frowned slightly.

"You go along that road, there should be a river there."

Werther remembered very clearly that there was a river past a crossroad, and many people heard it and hurried up, but there were still people who were entangled, hoping for something to eat.

boom

Deguna held the gun in her hand and fired a shot into the sky, dispersing the entangled talents. There are too many such situations along the way, and giving a little to others means starving yourself.

In such an era, if you want to survive, you have to be ruthless. If you don't be ruthless, they would have died long ago. I don't know how many times.

It was another uphill road. Gene got out of the car, Ellie came to the cab, and a few others got out of the car and started pushing the car. supplied.

Finally, after going up the slope, everyone saw a small city below the towering mountains and rivers in the distance. It was about 30 kilometers away from here. After everyone got into the car, it was now downhill, and no electricity was needed at all.

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the car was parked hundreds of meters away from the small city. A large number of cars were parked outside the city, and the city looked strange because many places were crowded with people. Graffiti, this small city that was originally a tourist is now dirty.

There are many three-story wooden buildings in the city. Some of them seem to have been burnt down, while others are completely collapsed. There are people moving, but for the time being, nothing can be seen, because there is no one at the intersection to enter the city.

After waiting and watching for half an hour, it was determined that there was no danger, and they put the talents in the car again, but they did not intend to drive the car in. After finding a place to park the car, Deguna, Werther and Gu Yi were guarding In the car, the other five entered the city.

On the street, you can see a lot of people standing at the door and setting up stalls. There are many things on the stalls that people need to use in their daily lives.

"Do you want to take a look at my batteries, there are quite a few. You can just replace them with food."

The streets are full of people, it seems peaceful, but there is also some arguing, but soon people in the vicinity will discourage it.

Gene asked.

"Is there no administrator in this city?"

The vendor didn't seem to be happy to say that Gene could only take out a few pieces of candy before he spoke.

"There is no actual manager in this city, but there are some gangs who will spontaneously manage things in the area, and occasionally take some things from us. When we need help."

Gene felt a little relieved when he heard this. The city was not as chaotic as he imagined. After walking around the street for a while, they saw a cafe full of people. They looked like they belonged to this area. Small gangs, many of them carrying guns and wearing different clothes.

"It's not bad for now."

Gene muttered, and then Gene walked in directly, and the people in the cafe looked at Gene and the others.

"Where can I find a house here?"

"How many people?"

Gene said.

"Eight."

A man in a tattered suit who was standing on the bar came over and said with a bunch of keys.

"You brought something. If you want to live in our area, you have to pay something."

Jean said with a smile.

"What do you think about technology?"

The man is excited, he looks very gentle, and he looks very handsome, looking at most in his early 30s.

"Mr. Angus, you should be careful, there are many liars."

A man reminded that the man in front of him was named Jed Angus. When the crisis broke out, he brought his whole family, including some bodyguards and some supplies, by private jet, because they had their vacation in this area. manor.

Jed used to be a rich man. After his people came here, as the situation got out of control, he could only take the Angus family as the core and stand firm in this area. This small city has various sizes. of more than ten people.

Jed also tried his best to calm down some frictions between all parties. Everyone lived here in peace and harmony, and began to plant crops around the city, which also yielded certain harvests.

It's still bartering here, but the law and order is much better. Anyone who causes riots here will be expelled from the city. The city has been stable for five months, during which everything is fine.

On a street with many children playing, Jed brought Gene and the others over, and in front of them were some houses. These houses were all three-story duplex structures. They used to be used to sell evil. This small city Also just developed some private holiday villas, but it happened that many facilities are relatively new.

"You can live here, but you need to help the block, no matter what it is. If you don't want to pay for materials, just work. You just said that you have technology, right? What is it?"

Li Chu said with a smile.

"All-round technology."

Jed was a little surprised, and then laughed. There is a wind power plant nearby, which is the main energy supply for the city. After all, this place is too cold. If there is no electricity at night, people will freeze to death.

"Let's trust you for now, don't cause trouble. You can go to the factory over there tomorrow morning. There are some food production machines that have malfunctioned and need to be repaired."

"Go now."

Jean didn't say much, and asked Ellie and Tang Rao to go back to inform the other three, and then took Li Chu and Rose to the factory with Jade.

Some machines in the factory were humming. Gene glanced at it and found that it was a machine for grain processing. The grain was directly crushed, and then some things were added to process it into some compressed coarse grains, which seemed to be convenient for storage.

Indeed, only one machine is working, and some other machines with different functions have been broken for a long time. When several workers saw Jed, they kindly called Mr. Angus.

It can be seen that the Angus people are very good, and they are admired by everyone. Gene doesn't talk nonsense, and directly disassembles the machine. Li Chu took the computer to connect the main program of the machine and checked it. All actions are very smooth. Well, I immediately found out what was wrong.

"I didn't expect it to be true, Mr. Jean, thank you for coming."

"We are some of the top scientists in various fields and should be able to help you."

Rose said, Jed nodded happily.

Soon Gene made a machine run successfully, and many people in the factory clapped their hands.

"Thank you, Mr. Jean, you have a good rest today and talk about it tomorrow."

Gene didn't reject Jed's kindness either. Soon Jade saw Gene's car and knew that they had assembled it by themselves. Now Jed completely believed that they were scientists.

"There's even a doctor."

Jade laughed happily. Immediately, Ellie, Werther and Tang Rao followed Jade, and Jean and the others planned to clean the house first, so that they could live in temporarily.

The people in the area said that there are not too many, and there are not many, because many people have died. There was a virus outbreak here, but the source was contained. Now the virus is gone, and it has experienced several times. The war was chaotic, but now it has completely calmed down.

The facilities in the house are complete. Gene and the others began to allocate rooms. The three-story villa-style house is fully enough for eight people. It seems that there are some families around here. Five or six.

And they say that some single people will be placed in some ground-floor apartments by Jade, who manages more than 8,000 people in this area very well, and has a good relationship with people in other areas.

"Looks like it's time to live longer."

Li Chu sat comfortably on the sofa, but he did not expect that they would end up in such a peaceful place.

Some materials on the car were brought in by them. Although this small city is small, its power generation and water sources are relatively stable. Fortunately, when it was developed at that time, in order to build the city, many businessmen spent a lot of money. With the money, the place has everything here. There are a lot of light industries, but there is no heavy industry. It is mainly for holiday and tourism services.
