"Fishing is not allowed here, sir..."

I turned my head and originally wanted to subconsciously grab the weapon next to me. But the movement of the man behind me was as fast as the sound coming from him. He put a hunting bow and a homemade bow and arrow against my head, and also pushed me

The weapon was kicked to the side, and the distance was enough for the weapon to almost fall into the lake. However, at this time, of course, I still chose to raise my hands above my head.

"Sorry? Did I disturb other people?" I said to him with a fake smile. At this time, this man was just an ordinary young man in my eyes. If he hadn't held a weapon in his hand,

I also plan to continue busy with what I am doing. I have met these people several times in Xicheng District.

Near Xicheng District, you will often encounter some half-dead civilians. Most of these people come from the north. They have almost nothing on them, neither coats to protect themselves from the cold wind, nor body parts to provide them with.

Calorie food. These exiled civilians suddenly appeared during this time period. I guess it must be because of some accident in the north.

So I raised my hands and slowly waited for his answer.

"No..." he replied with a frown, but his eyes couldn't help but look at the backpack beside us.

"It's not a fishing ban now, and we're not fishing, man." Lao Lan said while drinking.

"So, can you put down this bow and arrow? Let me tell you, if you want something to eat, there is no need to use these things." My raised hands began to slowly put them down until he put down the bow and arrows in his hands.

.

At this time, everyone except me was packing their things on the river embankment. But it seemed that the young man with the hunting bow did not dare to approach us. It was just because I was relatively close to him that he took the risk to come up and talk to us.

I talked.

"What's your name?" He was still wary of me because the scars on my arms were very scary. From the beginning to the end, his eyes were fixed on my limbs, and his brows were pressed to the eyeline. Until he choked out and said

This sentence.

"It's not important, man. There is no need for you to come to this place. Northerners like you are not welcome here." I put my hands on my hips and threw a bag of self-heating rice. He picked it up in a panic.

The bag of food was stuck, and the bow and arrow even slipped to the ground.

"I heard that you are not very friendly to northerners..."

"Oh? Of course, because now everything is decided by the northerners, and we southerners won't get any benefits at all!" Wei Lao stood up slowly, walked up to me with a submachine gun, and pulled me

Stopped.

I rolled my eyes, "Hey, there's no need for that."

"It's not a problem between southerners and northerners now. If there wasn't something wrong with the facilities in the north, we wouldn't have traveled all the way to the south," the archer said.

"Okay, okay." I thought leisurely while turning around in a circle, and then added: "For what reason did you go south?"

"The city refugee camp and supply center have been occupied by others, and the heavy snowfall came so suddenly. We have no resources and cannot stay there anymore." The archer sighed and exhaled a little white smoke.

"Who is so capable? Isn't that government territory over there?" I asked.

"I don't know, they don't look like soldiers in the army, but they look like a certain organization. These people prohibit other citizens from approaching the grain bureau and material warehouses, and force people to move."

"When did you evacuate?" I continued to ask him.

"Last Friday." The other party replied immediately, his tone revealing the unusualness of this time.

"how many people?"

"I don't know, maybe tens of thousands of people."

I think a considerable number of these tens of thousands of people must not have been able to survive this blizzard. In the north, the temperature has plummeted to about minus seven degrees. This temperature is very fatal for Beicheng District without heating, and people also

If you don’t have coats and cotton-padded jackets, let alone warm pasta.

"So," I rubbed my sore neck with my hand, "can you tell us the situation over there? I guess you must have encountered some unexpected situation that made you rush south in such a hurry."

After saying that, I handed over another bottle of beer.

"Of course," the archer looked at the beer in my hand and swallowed. "We originally established a refugee residential area in the urban area above the central island of the city. The local community spent three days to build a long section that can accommodate half of the population.

The streets where civilians live in this city also store a lot of supplies and food."

"Go on." I nodded.

"The local government sent troops and medical organizations to the area and quickly settled in this place. Unexpectedly, a sudden plague destroyed all efforts here. Many people were infected with the plague. The local health organization

There is simply no way to solve it. Forced by desperation, these people can only evacuate."

"And then you got a blizzard?"

"That's right." The archer looked at the hazy blizzard in the distance and couldn't help but shudder.

These civilians abandoned the stored supplies and food in the north and hurriedly left Beicheng District. At first, they were just to avoid the plague. And this plague began to spread a long time ago, and I more or less know that this is a good thing done by that council.

, this is the product of political struggle. Human life here is simply worth less than paper. The plague was very deadly at the beginning. Although I don’t know how Lao Liu and I survived, we were lucky enough to get rid of it.

The plague also got rid of the gang of thugs in Nancheng District.

But the citizens of Beicheng District did not. They escaped the plague, but they could not avoid the devastation of the blizzard. A considerable number of people died on the streets of Beicheng District.

"What a pity, this is not easy for anyone." I sighed, and at the same time I turned around, facing the snow-covered Beicheng District. "Thank you for your greetings, sir." I carried it on my back.

He said.

"Ah, no need!" He picked up the bow and arrow on the ground, a little uncomfortable with the polite reply from the southerners, "I was just passing by and curious."

I turned around and looked at him with a mocking expression, "I'm referring to the arrow you just aimed at me, man."

The four of us sorted out the equipment and supplies, and then drove the armored vehicle slowly towards the bridge in Xicheng District. The road was basically full of fleeing civilians. They were scattered very scattered. It was estimated that they could make it here alive.

There are not many people left.

In other words, there are actually plenty of supplies and food in Beicheng District. Unfortunately, no one dares to risk their lives to get it. There are government troops in the north and some wheeled infantry fighting vehicles running around.

After leaving this area, the Hedi Peninsula, we officially arrived in Xicheng District. The land here is flat and wide. It is a famous industrial park in the city. The buildings are scattered and short. It is difficult to find landmarks here.

Buildings serve as road signs.

The coastline is still some distance away from here. People generally would not come to such a remote place if they have nothing to do. The people who live here are usually workers or rich people who don’t want to live in high-rise buildings in the city. Yes, there is the whole city here.

The largest luxury residential area stretches from the main road of the lake embankment to the west bank, and the scenery will be more pleasing to the eye.

But now it is snowing in Xicheng District, but the snow is not as exaggerated as in the north, and the water is not frozen. When people walk on the street, they will only leave shallow traces, but in Beicheng District, the snow will cover all traces of people.

If covered up, the severe cold may completely engulf a person.

"Check the signal!" I shouted to Lao Lan in the strong wind.

"The signal is okay, but the location here is still not very good. It's intermittent...shit!" He adjusted the radio until it couldn't be used anymore.

"What's wrong with you?" I heard Lao Lan complain and turned my head to look at his troubled face.

"I don't think I got enough sleep, damn it."

"Then go to bed, man."

"The weather is so cold that I really want someone to take a hot bath and get under the quilt." Wei Lao continued to drink the bottle of wine, as if he would freeze to death immediately if he left the wine.

"How do I look?" Lao Lan looked at us with tired eyes, as if he was a little depressed.

"I have to say, man, you look terrible." I also yawned. In this cold weather, humans should hibernate.

"Didn't you hear? Go to sleep when you are sleepy." Wei Lao mocked.

"Who can sleep at this time!" Lao Lan supported his backpack. The carrying system made him very uncomfortable. No one knew what was stuffed in Lao Lan's backpack.

"We are not in the mood to sleep, gentlemen." Yana held up the phone screen in front of my eyes. It showed that the temperature in Xicheng District has almost dropped to zero. As long as the lake freezes, people in Beicheng District can pass through the lake.

The frozen ice reaches the other side of the lake embankment, which is Xicheng District. "We have to escape the cold wave before others do, otherwise the temperature will drop further and we will not be able to go anywhere."

This is why we are in a hurry. As long as the lake freezes, we will encounter piles of people fleeing from the north. These people have more or less weapons and a certain amount of food. There is no doubt that they will be us.

One of the threats on the road. I will not trust some illegally armed civilians in the city.
