Chapter 784 784Haicheng
Author: Long Boat Crossing the Moon
After the cargo ship docked, everyone got off the ship one by one. Ye Fu looked back at the vast sea, put the ship into the space, and after using the compass to determine the direction, they continued on their way.
Ye Fu took out seeds from the space and distributed them to everyone. Although there were some weeds growing on the shore, they were not edible. The land that had just rained a few days ago was still soft. If the seeds were scattered, they would sprout quickly.
"Why are there still apple seeds?" Wenwen looked at Ye Fu in surprise.
"Spreading grass seeds and tree seeds is to improve the ecology, but there are survivors here. In addition to improving the ecology, try to help them improve their lives. I mixed some rapeseeds, fruit seeds and grain seeds into it.
I hope it will germinate smoothly.”
Ye Fu signaled everyone to keep a few dozen meters apart before moving forward. She hung the bag of seeds on her chest and scattered a handful of seeds into the wind. Maybe when they pass by here next time, it will become an oasis.
They were unable to accurately determine which province the current area belonged to. The road monuments and landmark buildings here were gone, and after passing through several cities, they were all in ruins.
Fortunately, they have encountered many survivor villages in the past few days. In order to prevent the other party from panic, Ye Fu and the others did not show up in a grand manner. The survivors lived a difficult life, and the weeds growing on the ruins were in their eyes
It's food to satisfy their hunger. Fortunately, the rivers in the south have not dried up. As long as the seeds they sow along the way germinate, within three years, they will not be hungry again.
After walking eastward for three days, they seemed to have arrived at Haicheng, a once bustling first-tier city. Now only the ruins of the city were left. Qi Yuan dug out a hotel plaque among the ruins.
After wiping it clean, the word "Haicheng" was clearly written on it.
Ye Fu looked at Jiang Run. Jiang Run escaped from the genetic laboratory in Haicheng back then. Twenty years later, he didn't know if that laboratory was still there.
Jiang Run seemed to be uninterested in everything here. Before escaping from the laboratory, he had never seen the outside world. To him, Haicheng was not a hometown, but a prison.
Haicheng is not far from Lancheng. If you walk, it may take half a month. If you drive, it only takes two or three days.
"Let's spend the night in Haicheng tonight. It will get dark soon. We will leave early tomorrow morning and try to reach Lancheng within two days."
"Okay, find an open space. I will take out the tent later. Wenwen, take a telescope and see if there is any movement around. Haicheng is too big. Although they are all ruins, there are no collapsed or burned buildings.
I hope someone lives inside." Ye Fu brought a telescope to Wenwen.
Fang Wei and Fang Ming were from Haicheng. After arriving in Haicheng, Qi Yuan's mood plummeted. He stood on the ruins and looked at the land quietly. Before returning, he and Fang Ming talked about how to bury Fang Ming.
In the end, the two of them unanimously decided to bury Fang Wei's body in Lancheng.
After Xuxu knew this was Fang Wei's hometown, she kowtowed three times on the ground and whispered "Mom" three times to the sky.
"Mom, we are going home."
Qi Yuan also waved his hand towards the sky, completely letting go of all his obsessions at this moment.
After dinner, no one was in the mood to chat. Wenwen told Ye Fu that she didn't notice anything strange, but in a crumbling building, she found some dried feces, which she guessed were left by birds and animals.
Lying in the tent, Ye Fu expressed his guess, "Jiang Run, there may be survivors in Haicheng."
Jiang Run looked a little surprised, "How do you say that?"
"When we entered the city, I saw some footprints. Haicheng was very windy and sandy, but those footprints were not buried by the sand. This means that someone had been active here in the few hours before we entered the city. And judging from the size of the footprints, either She is a short woman or a relatively young child."
Jiang Run didn't observe so carefully today. After entering Haicheng, some not so good memories were brought back. If it hadn't been getting late, he wouldn't have wanted to stay in Haicheng.
"Want to check it out?"
Ye Fu shook his head, "No, the survivors who have survived to this day are the most wary of strangers. We will leave tomorrow morning, so don't disturb them."
Sensing that something was wrong with Jiang Run's mood, Ye Fu turned over and faced him face to face.
"Lancheng was beautiful before the natural disaster. Now it is probably the same as Haicheng. There are ruins and ruins everywhere. Lancheng has a river that crosses the entire city. Half a year after the natural disaster broke out, Lancheng was exposed to drought and scorching sun. The river has also dried up, and Brother Song took He Rui and Zhang Yuan to get water."
Ye Fu shared some interesting stories with Jiang Run, trying to make him happy.
"For a while, there were so many vultures in Lancheng. I was shocked. Lancheng is a southern city. Logically speaking, it is impossible for such creatures to appear. He Rui and Zhang Yuan were so brave, but they actually went I was trying to catch vultures, but I didn’t expect that they actually caught one.” At that time, it could be said that corpses were everywhere in Lancheng. After the flood receded, the mud was filled with bones.
"The only people who survived in our building were me, Brother Song and Wenwen. I have always had a regret in my heart over the years. I was too indifferent back then. As long as I am willing to release a little kindness, I can save Qiu Lan. , but at that time I was very afraid of others knowing that I had space, and I didn’t want to cause trouble, so after the snakes appeared, I closed the door.”
Ye Fu sighed, "I was very timid at that time. I speculated on everyone with the greatest malice like a madman. I was hypocritical."
Jiang Run reached out and hugged Ye Fu, "There are no perfect people in this world, let alone selfless saints. You just want to live."
Ye Fu smiled bitterly, "Qiu Lan committed suicide. If I had reminded her more or helped her drive away the mother and daughter who wanted to occupy the magpie's nest, she would not have chosen to commit suicide."
This is the biggest regret in Ye Fu's heart. Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye, and she is no longer the selfish Ye Fu she used to be. But this regret can no longer be made up for.
Ye Fu didn't know why, but the closer she got to Lancheng, the more anxious she became.
Jiang Run said that she was timid near her hometown. For so many years, all she had been thinking about was returning to Lancheng one day after the natural disaster was over. But now she was very close to Lancheng. She could return in half a month at most or in three days at least. She was afraid of the place where she dreamed.
At seven o'clock the next morning, Ye Fu got up and looked at the rising sun in a daze.
Putting the tent into the space, she took out a bag of mixed seeds and placed it on the spot. An hour after they left, a thin figure approached the bag. After opening the bag, he was stunned.
