When the apocalypse comes, salted fish will only make bubbles

Chapter 19 The Past of the Flame Mountain Base

Mei Sang made it very clear that after the apocalypse broke out, those of them who were stranded in the desert failed to wait for rescue from the government.

Because the initial communication was not interrupted, they knew that the outside world was in complete chaos. It was not that there was no rescue, but it was simply impossible to come.

Zombies from the outside world are surging everywhere. They are keen on fresh human flesh and blood and have devoured countless living lives. On the contrary, they are the ones who survived by luck because they are far away from densely populated cities.

However, because of this, they did not dare to go out of the desert and were not willing to starve to death or thirst. They immediately circled the most important oasis attractions in the Flaming Mountain Base and began planning to use existing resources to survive in the doomsday.

God closes a door, but always leaves a window for you. The mysterious virus has turned most humans into walking zombies, but it has also given a small number of people the opportunity to evolve.

As time went by, people with various powers gradually awakened, which gave them hope for life. At that time, everyone united unprecedentedly and built an unimaginable desert fortress in a very short period of time.

The earth-type superpowers even led everyone to dig out an underground city under the desert so that they could have a place to escape the sand, cold and heat.

In order to prevent zombies from wandering in from outside, the wind power users desperately used their skills to continuously expand the coverage of the yellow sand. After half a year of hard work, the original desert of more than 200 kilometers has more than doubled in length.

Outsiders think it is caused by changes in the desert environment, but in fact it is man-made.

At first, the oasis had a water source. It was a natural lake covering dozens of square kilometers and was specially used for boating and swimming entertainment by tourists. Later, it became the only source of drinking water.

The desert was already dry and short of water. At that time, the base accommodated more than 2,000 survivors. The daily consumption of drinking water was huge, and coupled with the continuous drought, it didn't take long for the lake to shrink and dry up to only a dozen square meters.

And it is still shrinking, and it is probably only a matter of time before it dries up completely.

Before the apocalypse, all the resources in the base were supplied from outside. After the apocalypse, the supplies were cut off, and the days of sitting idle made people even more frightened and uneasy.

Even though those with water powers can barely maintain water supply, the food problem has become an obstacle to survival.

At this time, someone proposed to collect supplies from the pasture on the edge of the desert. The proposal was almost universally supported, so the more than 30 camels of the Meisan family came into use.

Immediately afterwards, one after another material collection teams began to take turns going to the surrounding pastures. This move had remarkable results, and herders' grain and livestock were constantly brought back.

Looking at the gradually filling stocks, everyone regained hope and looked forward to the day when the virus disappeared and they could return to normal life.

However, one night just over two months ago, a riot occurred that caught everyone off guard. Liu Changsheng, an earth-based superpower, led a dozen powerful superpowers and people loyal to him to destroy the base at that time. The manager was killed.

Then, they used the hunting rifles found in the herdsmen's houses to kill everyone who wanted to resist, killing them to serve as a warning to others, which was a huge deterrent.

At this point, the base was transferred to Liu Changsheng and his group, and the key to the warehouse door also fell into Liu Changsheng's hands.

Liu Changsheng was ruthless and knew that the amount of food and supplies in the surrounding area was limited, and no matter how much he saved, he could not feed and drink two thousand people.

Therefore, he began to deprive everyone of their food and drink in disguised form. He changed the meal from two meals a day to one meal a day, and later changed it to one meal every two days. Every meal was clear and watery, and some people even couldn't eat a bite for three days.

This is a rhythm that will starve people to death!

As a result, someone else stood up, begged for food, and denounced Liu Changsheng. The result was another round of killings.

After more than two months, countless old, weak, sick and disabled people died and were injured. Only less than a quarter of the more than 2,000 people were left. The originally crowded underground city became increasingly empty.

People who had just seen hope fell into despair again!

Mei Sang's family is lucky. Mei Sang's brother happens to be an indispensable water power user, and she and her parents can raise camels, so they can survive until now.

But even so, their life was not easy. Not to mention whether they had enough to eat, they could hardly even take a sip of her brother's supernatural water.

When Mei Sang said this, tears poured down his eyes: "Liu Changsheng is a beast. He controls all the water superpowers around him and provides water to them alone, while the others can only drink the sewage from the small lake. My parents and I also borrowed my brother’s help to get some superpower water, but it’s too little!”

"Liu Changsheng..." Li Ying muttered in a low voice.

This Liu Changsheng is really hateful. In order to protect himself, he actually ignored the life and death of so many people. His human nature is extremely bad.

Li Ying felt angry after hearing this, wishing he could kill him to eliminate harm to the people, but when he thought about it, he became discouraged. His own life was still in someone else's hands, so how could he have the confidence to deal with him!

It’s ridiculous to think about it!

"Li Ying,"

Mei Sang glanced back at the direction of the cave entrance. Seeing that her parents were not paying attention to them, she quickly reminded in a low voice: "I won't ask how you got here, but I tell you, it's very dangerous here. You'd better find a way quickly. Escape, otherwise I'm afraid... you'll die!"

After hearing this, Li Ying thought about something else: "Meisang, why do you say that? Have outsiders been here?"

"Well, when they go out, they always meet others. He doesn't want to be discovered, so he captures them all. Those who don't obey are killed directly. Those who obey are left to do hard work at the base. It is common for them to die of exhaustion and starvation. ,you……"

As she spoke, she looked at Li Ying's small body with an unbearable expression: "Hey, in short, just run away."

After hearing this, Li Ying looked at her and smiled: "Oh! I also want to escape, but how?"

After thinking about it, he raised his eyebrows and asked back: "If you could escape, you would have left long ago!"

The Flame Mountain base is located in the heart of the desert. Without camels and enough drinking water, it would be difficult to move even an inch.

The most important thing is that Liu Changsheng's pursuers must not be there, otherwise he will die immediately.

As for the Mei Sang family, they have water powers and have the opportunity to interact with camels, but they do not have the courage to face Liu Changsheng's pursuit and revenge.

So they would rather go hungry than gamble.

"..."

Li Ying's words left Mei Sang speechless. At the beginning of the apocalypse, they thought they were lucky to have such a place to save their lives. However, after Liu Changsheng came to power, this place became a tortured prison, and they could not escape.

What is missing is the courage and courage to break through the cage.

"Then just be more obedient, maybe..."

This is Mei Sang's only advice.

If you obey, you can at least live a few more days...

Li Ying was noncommittal about this. He had escaped death several times and finally came back to life. He really had to cherish life.

However, to cherish life, you must stay away from scum!

well! If only he had the ability to make those scum really become scum!
