Chapter 247: Seeing Clouds at Night, Falling Hungry by the Lake
In this world, there has been no mention of reading since the beginning. The world is suffering, disasters are frequent, monsters are causing trouble and the world is in chaos, and humanity is uncertain.
People have only one purpose from birth, and that is to survive.
Living in this world is the most difficult thing.
Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, "Nothing."
He changed his tone and asked, "How long have you been here?"
"It's been ten days."
The dog replied that he was captured, but in fact, he came willingly because there was no food. If he had not come, he might not be alive now.
Chen Changsheng said: "The labor here is so hard, how can you, a little boy in your teens, endure it?"
The dog said: "You have to hold on even if you can't hold it back. If you don't eat, if you don't eat, you will starve to death. There were about ten people who came with me before. They were either whipped to death or robbed."
We are starving to death for lack of food, people are dying here every day, and new people are coming in every day.”
"Most people like me came here because they had a disaster at home and had nothing to eat, so they had no choice but to come here."
Chen Changsheng thought that it was much more difficult here than he imagined.
"Is this so..."
He then asked: "What is this going to be built for?"
The dog blinked and asked: "Sir, you..."
Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "As I said before, I am not an adult."
Gou'er was skeptical and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he replied: "It's a city tower that's being built."
"Chengtai? Is it similar to an altar?"
"right."
Gou'er agreed: "Only after the city platform is repaired, people here will have the chance to be chosen by God and become the sons of God. In this way, they can get rid of diseases and avoid disasters. I heard people say that if they are chosen by God, they can live in a very beautiful place in the future."
It’s a big house, and there are lots of dry biscuits to eat every day.”
"Dry biscuits?" Chen Changsheng smiled and shook his head, then asked: "Do you think dry biscuits are the most delicious thing?"
"Yes." The dog nodded and said, "Dry biscuits are a good thing. You can feel full after eating half of them."
Chen Changsheng began to think.
This so-called city platform is a bit strange.
It seems a bit unbelievable that God chose the Son of God to avoid disasters and take refuge.
"How long will it take to complete this city tower?"
"I don't know. If we hurry up, it might be repaired in half a year."
This so-called city tower is no small project. Even if thousands of people work in shifts, it will take a year to complete.
Chen Changsheng planned to stay and take a look. Half a year was actually not too long.
Chen Changsheng said: "If you have any questions in the future, you can come to me. Walk three hundred meters from here and walk in after seeing the first mountain. Chen will live by the lake."
The dog was stunned for a moment, "Are you really not an adult?"
Chen Changsheng stood up and said with a smile: "I'm just passing by, not an adult."
He waved his hand and left here immediately.
The dog looked at this elegantly dressed man. Speaking of it, he was the cleanest person he had ever seen. Even some high-ranking adults were not as clean as this one.
After the dog saw the man walking away, he also went back.
In fact, there is no defense here at all. It is very easy to get in and out, but there is an endless road outside. Some people tried to leave, but in the end they just died on the road without food.
It's a dead end.
When night fell, the dog recalled in his mind the person he had met in the afternoon. This person always made him feel a little different.
Probably because he is too clean.
Today's dogs have not yet realized what they are about to face. It is almost difficult to survive in such a place without rules.
The days to come will indeed become more difficult.
At first, the dog could still rely on the half of the dry biscuit to satisfy his hunger, but after a few days, he felt dizzy, his whole body lost a lot of weight, and sometimes he was out of breath while working.
With no strength left, he was also targeted by other workers.
One day when he was receiving dry biscuits, a group of people surrounded him.
The dog quickly stuffed the dry biscuit into his mouth.
But soon someone punched him in the abdomen, and the biscuit in his mouth fell out.
When the dry biscuits fell to the ground, several people around them had red eyes and rushed towards the dry biscuits.
"mine!"
"Get out of here, get out of here!"
Six or seven people were fighting together, and the scene was particularly chaotic. There was even blood, and some were stained on the dry biscuits.
"Hahaha, it's mine!"
The person who grabbed the dry biscuit didn't care about the blood on the dry biscuit and stuffed it into his mouth.
But unexpectedly, a stone suddenly hit him.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, blood flowed from the top of the man's head and he fell to the ground.
The dog quickly picked up the piece of dry biscuit. His eyes scanned the crowd, and the hand holding the stone was trembling a little.
He immediately picked up the piece of bloody dry biscuit again, stared at the people in front of him who were eyeing him eagerly, and said: "Whoever dares to come here!! I will smash him to death!"
Someone stepped forward to test the breath of the fallen man.
"No, I'm not angry anymore..."
Everyone was a little afraid at this time.
They did not realize that this doll could be so vicious, and then they began to think about retreating.
The dog's eyes showed ferocity, and he backed away, gradually moving away from here.
But the adult holding the whip on the side just looked at this scene with cold eyes, because this was normal.
But when the dog stepped back, it tripped.
He quickly stabilized his body, and when he lowered his head, he saw a skinny and panting old man.
That is a man who is going to starve to death.
…
There is a bamboo house standing beside a small lake in the mountain forest.
Chen Changsheng drank wine and held a long pole in his hand, waiting for the fish in the lake to take the bait.
There was a fire standing nearby, and the sound of exploding firewood continued.
It was already midnight, the sky was dark, and the stars and moon were looming, obscured by clouds.
A thin figure stumbled to the lake.
Chen Changsheng turned around and looked.
But I saw that the dog was extremely weak, and every step seemed to be particularly laborious.
"You said, yes, I can come to you..."
Gou'er's voice was weak, and after finishing speaking, he fell in front of Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng put away his pole, shook his head and sighed.
…
Chen Changsheng fed him some water and roasted two fish over the fire.
"Click, click."
The fire crackled and sparked.
By the time the dog woke up, it was already an hour later.
Chen Changsheng handed him the grilled fish.
"Eat."
The dog was like a wolf and a tiger. At this moment, he only had eyes for this fish, and even the fish tail was chewed up and swallowed into his belly.
Chen Changsheng ate slowly, and when the dog slowly came to his senses, he asked: "Why are you so hungry?"
The dog smacked his mouth and said, "I didn't know how to do it originally, but..."
He looked at the wild flames in front of him, and for a moment he couldn't figure out why he did what he did.
