Dangerous City In The Last Days

Chapter 396 The Origin of Mythology

The early morning of the east day did not bring the morning sun, the whole day was covered by dark clouds, and the temperature dropped a little again.

Qin An has never seen such extreme weather. In his impression, if the temperature is very low, the sky is generally blue, because there is no temperature and water vapor conditions that form a large number of clouds.

Maybe this has something to do with the end times, right? After all, this world is different from before.

Bringing 500 people out of the city, heading diagonally to the northwest, they finally reached the bank of the moat. This is where Grin and the others crossed the river. On the opposite side, there is a large tree with a diameter of more than two meters and a height of more than 100 meters. The tree stands upright.

This tree has extremely luxuriant branches and leaves. Twenty meters above the ground, many branches with a diameter of fifty to sixty centimeters are scattered, and more branches are scattered on the branches.

What’s even more amazing is that on these branches, there are many football-sized upgraded pine fruits, making it look like an ogre tree in The Underworld.

Yue Zichen was not attracted by the strange tree, but said with emotion to Qin An: “The boss is really careful! No wonder you let us go out of the city with an axe, pickaxe, shovel! I just thought about cleaning the battlefield. I forgot about this tree! Do you want to destroy this big tree? Yes! If it is not destroyed, our moat will not be able to play its role.”

Liu Xia has been following Qin An. When she saw the giant tree, she opened her small mouth slightly and said, “Why is this tree so big? Look at its roots, this section of the river has already been filled!”

Qin An smiled and nodded, and then said: “Maybe it is some kind of upgraded! I don’t know why it can grow so huge, but I know it just grew up not long ago! That is to say, it has not experienced heavy rain. , The trees should still be dry! Now we are facing a snowstorm and urgently need firewood for heating! I think such a big tree should be enough for us to burn for a while? I just don’t know if it is easy to be ignited after being upgraded. But I think with your special fire ability, you should be able to burn it, and then use it for us!”

Liu Xia nodded obediently, very happy that her special ability could help.

And Yue Zichen admired Qin An! The mind of this little killer is really smart!

Qin An held a machete in his hand. He quickly reached the other side of the river, without any hesitation, holding the handle of the knife in both hands, and began to cut trees!

Although the big tree is huge, the hardness of the wood is not much stronger than that of ordinary trees. With the support of Qin An’s arms of several thousand jin, the trees were cut off without much effort, and then dumped on the ground.

Qin An stepped forward and took a look at the cross-sectional cut of the tree, and found that the inside was not too different from ordinary trees, and it was solid, but on the cut surface you could see tiny particles squirming back and forth, as if they were There is life in general.

Is this big tree alive?

After Qin An was stunned for a meeting, he shook his head indifferently, raised his hand with a machete to cut a palm-sized piece of wood at the cut of the trunk, and asked Liu Xia to ignite it with the flame ability and place it on the ground.

Yue Zichen and others were first shocked by Liu Xia’s ability to summon flames, and then shocked by the burning wood on the ground!

To everyone, including Qin An Liu Xia, did not expect that this piece of wood was incredibly easy to burn, and it burned very slowly. A small piece of wood burned for more than ten minutes and there was no sign of any momentum to extinguish it!

At the same time, the heat released by it is also very strong, and a little bit of warmth can be felt from the burning flame at a distance of more than ten meters.

Qin An was overjoyed after watching it! Haha, this is simply the best gift the enemy gives to the refugees in Ruyan City West!

Feeling better, Qin An began to order everyone to cut off the branches of the big tree one by one with the axe and chopper in their hands.

Five hundred people worked together, and it took a full half an hour to complete the work, and the cut tree branches have been chopped into a small hill!

Qin An was even more happy when he saw it. He shouted at Yue Zichen and everyone else: “Okay! Let’s come together, separate out three hundred people, and bring the trunk of this big tree back to Ruyan City with me! There will be another hundred people looking for it. Tools to carry the branches of these trees! Another hundred people stayed, use the tools in your hands to go to the other side to dig the ground three feet, and dig out the roots of the big tree! The trunk is so tall, I guess its roots can’t be smaller! Wait! I will send someone to help you in a while. You have to be careful about two things. The first is not to be bitten by the piranhas on both sides when dealing with the roots of the river. Still so active! The second is to assign some people to defend in the trenches. I guess the enemy will come back! It is impossible for them to get thousands of people to die for free and there will be no more!”

After hearing this, everyone laughed. They discovered that this little murderer was so approachable and humorous when he didn’t kill people!

This is a wonderful feeling. In the first half of the night, these people belonged to the soldiers of the thirteen forces and had conflicts with Qin An, but now they are doing one thing together like colleagues in good relations.

In fact, this kind of thing is normal. There are no absolute interest groups in the last days, and some are just selfish people.

In order to survive, in order to live well, people do not have to stick to the so-called faith of loyalty. For most people, having milk is the right way to be a mother!

After receiving Qin An’s order, everyone started to work separately.

Qin An and three hundred people carried this giant tree happily towards the west of Ruyan City. Finally, there was wood for heating, and now there is no longer a fear that people will be frozen to death!

Qin An smiled and walked at the bottom of the fracture interface where the tree was finally lifted. Although the other person was small and tired at this time, the power of lifting the tree with his hands gathered above his head was still comparable to 20 or 30 ordinary people. Human power!

Liu Xia was happy because of Qin An’s smile, but she did not dare to get too close to Qin An. She could only look at Qin An’s back in front of her from five or six meters away. The little butt was twisted and twisted when she walked, and it was full. The joy made Liu Xiajiao laugh.

Qin An was very puzzled and asked what Liu Xia was laughing at, but Liu Xia just laughed and did not answer.

The atmosphere suddenly became full of warmth, as if they had lit countless bonfires by their side at this time.

In the west of Yancheng, many people have gathered in the open space near the temporary city’s main office building, and more people have poured in from all directions.

People’s clothes are frozen, and they are icy cold on their bodies, but they have no choice, because the conditions are so difficult.

This night, everyone was sick and tired.

After experiencing the heavy rain at night, experiencing the riots in the middle of the night, experiencing the heavy snow in the second half of the night, the houses collapsed, and the cold at this time. All kinds of hardships have made most people lose the desire and courage to continue to survive. Standing on the cold snowy ground, it is like a walking dead body that has lost its soul.

However, what surprised them was that when they were ready to face reality and accept the death call, someone suddenly organized them to move closer in the same direction.

Some poor people who still hope to live well will ask what they are going to do?

One of the organizers, a man in his thirties with a beard, said: “Lord soul boy in the last days will save the people and the fire! Don’t ask so much, just go quickly if you don’t want to freeze to death! Run, rub your hands while running! ”

He almost yelled this sentence, and everyone around him could hear it. Most people didn’t have too many thoughts in their hearts, and the bone-chilling cold made their hearts numb.

The bearded man saw an old man who had fallen in the collapsed tent. He stepped forward and pulled the old man out. He touched his nose and found that he was still alive. Then he said, “Whose old man is this? Do you have any children? Is there anyone in charge?”

After asking several times, no one spoke up.

The beard frowned, then pulled a young man next to him, and said to him: “You take this old man with you! Apocalyptic soul boy will save all living beings! He said that he can’t let one person freeze to death again! Don’t worry, for a while. There is a big bowl of hot porridge to drink!”

Hearing that there was hot porridge, the young man hurriedly carried the old man on his back, then nodded and bowed in thanks to the bearded man.

Can’t let a person freeze to death?

Such words are familiar and unfamiliar!

Before the end of the world, it seems to be often heard in television reports that disasters such as earthquakes, floods or fires in a certain area are often said by the government.

But in the last days, who would care about the life and death of others?

After people were stunned for a while, their hearts slowly became active. Could it be that the eschatological soul boy who was told all night is really here to save people from the Sea of ​​Bitterness?

Everyone’s movements became a little more flexible, and they supported each other, and began to gather at the temporary office building of the city lord built by Wang Khan.

Yin Hanchao was very busy at this time. According to Qin An’s instructions, he sent people to find many large pots and prepared some rice grains to prepare porridge.

When many cauldrons were collected, Yin Hanchao ordered to start clearing the snow on the ground.

If there is a way to ignite the wood for a while, Yin Hanchao intends to use the snow to cook porridge!

Although relying on the sea, ordinary humans have not yet evolved to the point where they can drink sea water.

People usually rely on those salt fish to get fresh water, but this kind of fresh water resources are limited and only barely available for people to drink. It is unrealistic to use large quantities of water to cook porridge.

While doing these things, Yin Hanchao also sought out some young and physically strong young men to collect and sort out the construction materials of the shantytowns that had been crushed by the heavy snow. He has already begun to consider the reconstruction of the city. It has to be said that Fatty Yin Hanchao is really a talented person.

Everyone has been busy for a long time. When the legendary apocalyptic spirit boy brought people and carried a super huge tree, people were shocked.

Finally, some believers of the soul boy of the last days began to cry and knelt to worship. Among them, a weak man with broken eyes shouted: “God bless me! The soul boy collected a strange tree and burned it to solve us. The bitter cold of these mortals! This is really great, a myth that can be compiled into books and passed on to the believers of later generations!”
