Today's third-rate town is very lively, and many people gather in the town.
The third-rate town is the intersection between the second and third cities of Dongyang City. A lot of people died here the year the restricted area first appeared. After that, a lot of snakes, insects, rats and ants spawned here, and it took a long time to eliminate them.
.
Especially all kinds of mosquitoes, which appear again and again like an endless supply, and the conference hall has never been able to find an effective solution.
So after weighing the situation, Dongyang City simply gave up on this area and ignored it later, and used it as a boundary to build the No. 2 and No. 3 cities on both sides.
However, because there are few restricted areas near this area, there are no other troubles except mosquito bites. After that, homeless people settled here one after another, and later built it into a small town.
It was named a third-rate town.
That's right...a third-rate town.
This is a small town that no one cares about, and most of the people living in it are third-rate people who are not needed.
The town belongs to the territory of Dongyang City, but it is not a city recognized by Dongyang City, and the people in the town are not included in the protection scope of Dongyang City——
Because they are not legal residents of Dongyang City.
This is a disgraceful history.
Two hundred years ago, the emergence of forbidden areas not only caused a large number of casualties, but also occupied a lot of land. Large areas have since become forbidden areas that humans cannot enter, including many livable cities in the past.
What is frustrating is that the loss of land far exceeds the reduction of population, which means that the distribution of resources has become a big problem.
At that time, people did not have the ability to explore restricted areas. Even if they tried their best to adapt to the unfamiliar and harsh environment, there was still no guarantee that everyone could survive well.
Then the chaos began.
More people and less land brings endless struggles. Fights for resources occur every day, and many people die every day.
The irony is that even so, the population has not dropped to a point where everyone is "satisfied".
This situation did not improve until the establishment of the Parliament, order was re-established, various urban districts were built one after another, and actions and research on restricted areas were also launched.
However, even parliament cannot effectively solve the problem of large population, and many policies have very limited effect, because there are always people who need to be sent to extremely harsh environments.
Perhaps it was precisely because there was no other way that the original parliament did something that some people still criticize.
The parliament seems to be deliberately turning a blind eye to the actions of various urban districts, allowing them to expel unnecessary people for various reasons, leaving behind the so-called elite.
There are even rumors that this eviction action was authorized by the parliament, otherwise there would not be so many urban areas carrying out eviction plans at the same time.
This also caused the prestige of the parliament at that time to drop a lot, which was only gradually improved later.
The reason why the Huangquan organization has a high reputation among the people is because they paid a huge price to capture the S-level restricted area Huangquan and used it to take in a large number of refugees who were expelled from the city.
How exactly the elite should be defined? There is still no clear explanation in each urban area, but it is obvious that the townspeople in third-rate towns are the descendants of the "unwanted people" in the past, and most of their ancestors are ordinary people.
There are actually not a few places like third-rate towns. There are still many people who do not have legal urban status and can only live in the wild for a long time and haunt some leak-picking gangs.
These people call themselves outcasts. They are a group of "abandoned disciples" and are not qualified to enter the city.
You must know that not everyone can enter or leave the real city. There are always troops and extraordinary people stationed at the city gate to check the identity of every passerby.
Abandons must apply for a temporary ID card before entering the city, and it can only be kept for one day at most.
Bai Mo is an exception, but that's because everything in City Three is a deliberately created illusion.
Of course, if you are lucky enough to become an ability user or an extraordinary person, then congratulations, you are already qualified to enter the city to receive your identity.
Many abandoned disciples want to return to the city. After all, life there is far more comfortable than outside. However, some people always regard the cities as mortal enemies and want to make some small moves if they have the opportunity.
The other part is that they would rather occupy a restricted area than return to the city. Although there is no hatred, they definitely dislike the people in the city.
Third-rate towns belong to the latter.
This place is famous for its large number of mosquitoes, the most famous of which is the rosemary mosquito, which is less harmful, slightly poisonous, and has some hallucinogenic properties.
Rosemia mosquitoes are mainly famous for their widespread commercial value.
Over a long period of time, people in third-rate towns extracted the toxins from the rosemary mosquito. At first, they only used it as an anesthetic. Later, they gradually developed more uses and even produced a new type of cigarette.
This is a non-polluting inhalable gas with low toxicity and addictiveness. It soon became a substitute for cigarettes. It is expensive, but its sales volume is surprisingly high.
After all, due to the current emphasis on environmental protection, only e-cigarettes are allowed in all urban areas. They are not exciting, but many people still prefer this more exciting cigarette.
It has to be said that even among these unwanted people in third-rate towns, there are still talents. The formula of new cigarettes is still controlled by third-rate towns.
It seemed that this was the first time for many people to come to this small town, and they looked around curiously. However, the dense mosquitoes were really disturbing and gave everyone a headache.
Not long after, four people came to the lively town again. They were wearing cloaks, and their huge hoods covered their faces, making it difficult to see their faces clearly.
——It is the four people of Bai Mo.
"Brother Jian, why do we all have to wear cloaks?"
Although Bai Mo could ignore the strange looks from others, he felt that this outfit was strange from the bottom of his heart, so he couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Jian Wugui didn't know where he hid the scabbard. He crossed his arms and said seriously: "Because this is what this amusement park requires. You see, it's not just us, everyone else is also dressed similarly to us."
Bai Mo was stunned, looked around, and found that this was really the case.
The narrow town roads were crowded with people, many wearing strange clothes, and many others wearing cloaks like them.
He looked at it and suddenly said in surprise: "Look at that man, he is dressed like a mummy! This is too similar..."
Xue Hongyu looked in the direction he pointed. She was stunned for a moment, then she quickly suppressed her smile. She really wanted to tell Bai Mo that it was actually a mummy...
These days there are all kinds of extraordinary beings, and there are many people who take a zombie mummy as their little brother, which is similar to walking a dog in the past.
Of course, the source of the body must be legitimate.
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt worried.
There seems to be a lot of extraordinary beings gathered in this place. I'm afraid something big will happen nearby, or maybe there's a major bounty posted in a restricted area.
No matter what the possibility is, since Jian Wugui insists on bringing Bai Mo here, it is enough to show that his purpose is not simple.
Jian Wugui explained: "It's normal to be a mummy. Just think of it as a costume party... And this costume actually has another advantage, that is, it prevents bites."
"Bite?"
"Yes, haven't you noticed that there are a lot of mosquitoes here?"
Hearing this, Bai Mo noticed that there was indeed a buzzing sound around him. At first he thought there was a lot of dust in this place, but now he realized that the sky was full of mosquitoes flying randomly.
Many passers-by who were not well-protected were scolded by the stings. They raised their hands as if they wanted to do something, but gave up after hesitating for a moment.
——This is because of the ban.
That's right, just before Bai Mo arrived, Dongyang City temporarily imposed the same ban as City No. 3 here.
In fact, many urban areas actually have regulations, that is, you cannot take action or use your abilities at will in the urban area, but those rules are only for the convenience of management, and there is not much punishment.
This is the first time for these newly arrived extraordinary beings to see such a strict ban.
"This is a third-rate town that is not under Dongyang City Management. It still has random rules. What the hell is this? I still insist on breaking this rule..."
Some people were swearing, but he could only live with his words, because he already felt that someone was staring at him.
Coming to such a novel place was an eye-opener for Bai Mo. He looked at a man who was bitten by mosquitoes and couldn't laugh or cry: "There are so many mosquitoes in this place, no wonder everyone is wearing tight clothes.
"
"These guys are just inexperienced. They will end up like this if they don't make preparations before going out. Let's go, the amusement park is just ahead." Jian Wugui said.
For some reason, Xue Hongyu always felt that this guy was thinking about himself...
"What kind of amusement park is that?" Bai Mo asked.
To be honest, although he felt that asking someone to go to an amusement park was a bit childish, it was the other person's wish after all. Moreover, to be honest, he had never been to an amusement park since he was a child, so he readily agreed.
"You'll know when you go there." Jian Wugui pretended to be mysterious.
Not long after, a few people came to a dark tunnel, and a decent light sign was erected next to it with the three characters "Amusement Park" written on it.
A lot of people had gathered in front of the tunnel, and there was a lot of noise. A group of people stood scattered, staring ahead in trance.
Although there was no trace of the restricted area stone tablet, Xue Hongyu knew very well that the tunnel was definitely a restricted area, and Jian Wugui really wanted to do something to Bai Mo.
But isn't he afraid of accidents?
You must know that one of the characteristics of tombkeepers is that they cannot see abnormalities, and the restricted area is undoubtedly synonymous with abnormality. Could it be said...
Does this guy want to test the state of the gravekeeper after he "wakes up"?
To be continued...
