Chapter 654 Equivalent to relatives
But they had to let the laboratory rise before going out, so the two of them looked at No. 9.
Haiyan understood what they meant and said, "Let them get out."
Number nine is at the console, laboratory rising.
Shui Ling and Gong Qianyu left the house. The scenery outside changed drastically. It was no longer as gorgeous as before, and now it looked like a haunted house.
"Where are the people here? There weren't many in the past?"
Gong Qianyu smiled and said: "In the granary, your people are also there."
"Granary?" Shui Ling didn't understand what they were doing by arresting people and putting them in the granary. In a disaster year, isn't this the same as putting mice in a rice vat?
Gong Qianyu nodded, "Speaking of this county magistrate, it's not bad."
Shui Ling was even more confused. What does this have to do with the county magistrate?
Gong Qianyu pulled her and walked out, saying, "Although the county magistrate is greedy for money, he doesn't have such disregard for human life."
"He went to your place to take people away because that person predicted that Qionghai City would be flooded by the sea."
"Huh?" Shui Ling stopped in shock, "He was afraid that the people in Qionghai City would be drowned, so he brought people here?"
Gong Qianyu nodded, "Well, I have found out that it is indeed the reason, but the person who predicted that Qionghai City will be flooded did not do it to save people. He saw people gathering to do some rituals and sacrifices.
"
Shui Ling sighed, "Our ancestors had many wonderful things, but it's a pity that they were ruined by the younger generations."
"Do you know where he is? If we don't get rid of such people, they will be a disaster. I don't believe that any sacrifice can lead to immortality."
Gong Qianyu smiled and said, "Didn't I see this when I was a kid?"
"This..." Shui Ling thought of the woman who was a queen mother when she was a child. She sacrificed her child's life to gain youth.
The two of them left the county government office. There was no one on the street. They might have all gone home.
That guy also knows not to harm the people of Pearl City, but that doesn't mean he has a conscience.
Shuiling asked: "Where are we going? To the granary?"
Gong Qianyu shook his head, "Go to Ximen Mountain."
"Okay." Shui Ling nodded.
You can see the mountain after exiting the west door. There are no disaster victims lingering here. Logically speaking, there should be many people who want to go up the mountain to look for food.
Shuiling asked in confusion: "Why doesn't anyone go up the mountain to look for food?"
Gong Qianyu smiled faintly: "Because someone gives food, why do they waste their energy looking for food?"
"This..." Shui Ling felt that it was not okay to continue like this. When Pearl City had no food to provide, they had to demolish the city directly?
Gong Qianyu saw her thoughts and said: "Don't worry, we can still maintain it now. After all, they can't bear to be here. Besides, where can they escape? The whole country is like this now."
Shui Ling nodded, yes, where can we escape to? We don’t know what will happen after we leave here, so the victims don’t dare to destroy Pearl City easily.
"After all, this place is close to the sea and there is hope of survival. They will not leave easily. They will only gather more and more. We will do our best to provide the victims with something to eat."
Gong Qianyu knew that Shuiling was soft-hearted and would not let the victims starve to death. He nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry too much."
"Yeah." Shui Ling sighed, what is God trying to do? Why is there a drought?
Si Shanguan suddenly said: "Droughts happen every year, but they happen in different places. Even here we have droughts, but we can just wave our hands and it will rain."
Shui Ling was speechless. How could he compare with them? He felt like he was being laughed at by those at the top of the pyramid.
Si Shanguan also noticed something was wrong and said: "If there is a drought, then there must be floods somewhere. Nature is free. Don't think too much."
Shui Ling felt that this was quite right. She said, "That's right. If there is a disaster, don't be afraid. It's okay to deal with it well. You're just afraid of man-made disasters."
Si Shanguan sighed, "Yes, man-made disasters are the biggest disasters. I can't help you here. You only have so much space. Even if you use it to grow food, you won't be able to save so many people."
After hearing this, Shui Ling was thinking about whether to temporarily plant food in the space. Although what grew was spiritual rice, adding a small amount to the porridge should save many people.
Si Shanguan said: "You must not take out the spiritual rice and use it, otherwise some thoughtful people will come to arrest you."
Shui Ling was silent for a moment and said: "Grandpa, saving people is the most important thing now. Besides, if we only put in a little spiritual rice, the victims will not be able to eat anything."
Si Shanguan pondered for a moment and said, "Well, if it really can't support it anymore, it's okay if you let it go a little. With so much rice mixed in, who knows it's yours."
Shui Ling thought so too, and said with a smile: "I will be more careful."
"Okay, no matter what, I don't want anything to happen to you, understand? You are someone I have watched grow up, and you are like a family member." Si Shanguan said seriously.
Shui Ling felt warm in her heart, "Grandpa, don't worry, I will protect myself."
"Yeah." Si Shanguan said nothing more.
Shui Ling touched the soft and boneless little hamster in her arms. At first she said that she couldn't beat it, but in the end she put it away without even trying to beat it.
Sometimes we should not be too forward-thinking and timid. If we are bolder, we may open up a new world.
Of course, you should also consider carefully and make decisions based on the safety of yourself and those around you.
When Gong Qianyu saw that Shuiling was silent, he pulled her up the mountain. When they reached the middle of the mountain, there was a cave a little higher. Strange red runes were painted on the ground at the entrance of the cave.
There are two ferocious-looking statues at the entrance of the cave, just like the green-faced and fanged evil spirits written in books.
Shui Ling rubbed her arms and said, "It gives me goosebumps. Does anyone still worship this thing?"
Gong Qianyu looked at it and said with a smile: "This is the evil god. It is said that making a deal with the evil god can bring benefits to the trader. I don't know what the benefits are."
Shui Ling shook his head, "Praying to gods and worshiping Buddha may not necessarily bring about spiritual manifestations, but it can also provide benefits?"
Gong Qianyu said in a low voice: "There are too many people praying to gods and Buddhas. The gods and Buddhas are busy, but no one worships the evil gods. Maybe after worshiping, they will be remembered and benefited."
"Uh..." Shui Ling didn't expect him to explain it like this, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to make sense.
While talking, the two came to the cave. Shui Ling looked at the two statues carefully and felt a little strange.
Gong Qianyu asked: "What's wrong? What did you see?"
Shui Ling touched his chin, took out a hammer and said, "Knock it on."
"Okay." Gong Qianyu didn't ask, took the hammer and hit the sculpture hard.
The sculpture shattered to the ground with a crash, revealing two stone statues.
This stone statue shines white and is a very handsome man, but his eyes look full of sadness.
Gong Qianyu was a little surprised, so he went to the right and knocked the other one. Inside was a sculpture of a woman, but she had her eyes closed. She clasped her hands together as if she was praying for something.
