In the third outer city, in a room on the fifth floor of the building where the zombie generator was originally located.
Li Yu's eyes showed thoughtfulness, although Qing Yuan didn't say it particularly clearly.
But it is very likely that zombies will undergo some mutations during thunderstorms and natural disasters. I don’t know how many zombies will mutate and what they will mutate into.
The only thing that can be known is that it will definitely be more powerful than the current zombies.
It's a bit of a headache. Thunderstorms and natural disasters are difficult enough, and zombies will also mutate.
What the zombies will mutate into is still unknown.
Now let’s think about how to withstand the thunderstorm in the next twenty days based on the existing layout.
He raised his head, took a long breath, looked at Qingyuan and asked:
"Taoist Priest Qingyuan, you also mentioned the northwest evil star in your poem. What does it mean? Where is it specifically?"
Taoist Priest Qingyuan stroked his goatee on his chin and replied:
"Evil stars are naturally harmful to people, but nothing can be too absolute. Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other. It is a dilemma and an opportunity."
"I don't know the specific location. The general direction is to the northwest."
Hearing him say this, Li Yu felt a little sick.
Why is it still so confusing? The two questions I just asked were all based on vague guesses.
These two sentences immediately floated into the air.
"Fine."
Li Yu saw that he couldn't get anything out if he continued to ask, so he said to Qingyuan:
"Thank you, Taoist Priest Qingyuan, for your answer. If there is anything else that can be predicted through divination in the future, I hope that Taoist Priest can inform me like he did today."
Qingyuan smiled and said:
"This is natural. City Lord, please rest assured."
"If I reveal the results of my divination to others, I will be punished by God, but you, City Lord, are different."
Li Yu was horrified when he heard this.
He is different. Could it be that he saw that he was reborn?
When he met Qingyuan for the first time, this Qingyuan kept staring at him and said things like Ming Palace Killing Po Lang, Ziwei Astrology, and Overlord in Troubled Times.
Deep in his pupils, there was a hint of murderous intent that could not be detected.
But this murderous intention disappeared immediately, because he realized that he no longer had to care about this.
After all, as the city lord of the Great Zhangshu Base, he is now so powerful that no one can resist him.
So what if people knew he was reborn, but they would treat him as a savior!
If it were placed at the time when he had just been reborn, if he said that he was reborn and then showed some characteristics of a prophet, the end of the world had not yet broken out at that time.
He will definitely be captured, sliced into pieces, or kept in captivity to restrict his personal freedom.
But now, who dares to touch him? Who dares to disobey him?
Thinking of all this, Li Yu suddenly felt the benefits of mastering powerful power.
That is, you can make your own rules!
"Hahahahaha."
Li Yu laughed. He had just figured it out and let go of his worries.
I am worried that my rebirth will be discovered by others, and I am afraid of certain things.
However, he is not worried now.
Even if it was Yutong, what would happen if her parents knew about it.
Maybe it's just heartache and emotion, after all, they are indeed family.
As for the others, without their own leadership, it is unknown whether they would survive until now.
In short, he saved them. In a sense, Li Yu is their savior.
After laughing, there was some relief in his eyes.
He looked at Qingyuan and asked, "What's different about me?"
Qingyuan quickly bowed and said respectfully:
"The horoscope of the city lord's destiny palace is like the map of the heavenly palace on the top of the clouds. It is not within the limitations of the ordinary world, so I tell you that you will not be punished by heaven."
Li Yu looked at him deeply, and this sentence was flattering him.
He is not afraid of others knowing that he is reborn, but that does not mean that he will take the initiative to tell others this secret.
As long as no one finds out, he will always keep this secret with him.
"Qingyuan, you are very good this time. What reward do you want? As long as I can do it, I will try my best to satisfy you." Li Yu looked at him and asked.
Qingyuan raised his head, thought for a while and then said:
"In the last days of chaos, it is difficult for the human race to survive. Thunderstorms are coming. I hope the city lord can save more people."
Li Yu looked at him seriously and did not expect to give him a reward, but he made such a request.
It's...rare.
He is much greater than ordinary people like himself.
It's just that the request he made is a bit difficult.
In the thunderstorm, he didn't know whether he could protect himself or save more people...
But thinking about it from another perspective, if this thunderstorm natural disaster is really extremely terrifying, it would also be good for him to save some people.
After all, the development of Da Zhangshu Base depends on people. Without people, everything else is just talk.
So he opened his mouth and said:
"Okay, I'll do my best."
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan gave Li Yu a big gift.
"Blessings and Immeasurable Heavenly Lord!"
Li Yu walked towards the door, turned back to him and said:
"I understand everything you said, let's go downstairs."
Then he pushed the door open and walked in front.
There was no one in this building, only the piles of supplies.
Their footsteps echoed in the corridor.
After walking out of the building, Qingyuan followed Li Yu and had not yet reached the gate of the third outer city.
Li Yu saw Anya and Xiaoshi walking out of the greenhouse not far away.
"City Lord."
"City Lord."
After Anya and others saw Li Yu, they quickly said hello.
Li Yu nodded and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and paused slightly.
He thought of thunderstorms and strong winds. Although these greenhouses are steel frame structures with concrete underneath, there are still certain risks.
So he turned to Anya and said:
"Anya, please contact Xiao Ding and the others later to reinforce all the greenhouses in the base..."
Anya has some doubts in her heart. The weather is not bad now...
But she has always had great trust in Li Yu, and she has always implemented the orders given by Li Yu.
"The city lord wants to tie up and... with ropes just like the previous typhoon disaster."
Li Yu nodded and said: "Yes, just like before, get this matter done as soon as possible."
"Okay, I understand." Anya didn't ask why, because she believed that the city lord always had his reasons.
...
After leaving the third outer city, we came to the second outer city.
Second uncle, Qingyang and the others are still here.
The helicopter Li Yu took this time loaded some supplies back simultaneously, and He Chao was leading people to carry them there.
Seeing Li Yu and Qingyuan coming back, the second uncle hurriedly walked over.
Li Yu had previously issued some orders in the base that made him confused. Combined with the few lines of Qing Yuan's poems that he had guessed, he had a vague feeling that something big was about to happen.
"Xiaoyu."
After Li Yu saw his second uncle, he said to Qing Yuan behind him:
"Taoist Priest Qingyuan, please go back first."
Qingyuan bowed and then walked towards Qingxiao.
The second uncle looked at Qingyuan, turned to Li Yu and asked:
"How is it? Is there another natural disaster?"
It's normal for the second uncle to think this way. After all, Qingyuan came to Li Yu twice before, and Li Yu issued some orders, and natural disasters occurred not long after.
Li Yu felt a little heavy, nodded to his second uncle and said:
"About that, there will probably be a thunderstorm soon, lasting two months to half a year, and it is very likely that the zombies will also mutate. I don't know whether it will happen during this thunderstorm or after the thunderstorm."
"But we all need to be fully prepared."
The crisis he faced this time was too great. Many people knew about it and had many brains to help him think about how to prepare. So Li Yu simply told his second uncle what he heard from Qing Yuan and combined with his own guesses.
The second uncle is cautious, comprehensive and more meticulous in his work. He may be able to come up with a better solution to the current arrangement.
"Half a year?" The second uncle's eyes widened.
He could not imagine that the thunderstorm would last for half a year, for such a long time.
Covering the sky and blocking out the sun, the sun and moon have no light.
A thunderstorm is obviously heavy rain plus lightning.
They all know that zombies will become very excited during heavy rain, their limbs will become more flexible, and their strength will become stronger.
The most fearful time for people in the apocalypse is at night during a heavy rainstorm.
Every time I go through it is extremely difficult.
But this time, it took so long!
The second uncle was so horrified that he lost his voice.
Because the second uncle was too surprised, the people around him looked over.
Li Yu took his second uncle's shoulder and whispered:
"Find a place to chat."
The second uncle also realized that this was not a good place to talk, so Li Yu walked to the inner city together.
On the other side, Li Yuan was sitting not far from the helicopter registering supplies.
When I looked up, my second uncle was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's the second uncle?"
Qingyang answered: "He and the city lord went to the inner city. He probably has something to discuss."
"Oh...mysterious."
After saying that, she turned her attention back to the laptop.
"Ammunition box...."
....
Inner city.
The pavilion in the bamboo forest.
It was still morning, and everyone in the base had their own things to be busy with.
So there is no one here in the bamboo forest.
In the pavilion in the bamboo forest, there is a round stone table surrounded by four stone benches.
Li Yu and his second uncle were sitting on the stools.
The second uncle frowned. He felt that this natural disaster was extraordinary. Without him, it would have lasted too long.
After heavy rain, there will definitely be floods.
During a natural disaster, you will certainly not be able to go out.
But they now have more than just one headquarters base in Da Zhangshu.
There's also Oil City, the North, and even the military base we just found.
The things to consider are several times more complex than before.
Li Yu looked at his second uncle and said:
"It's not necessarily half a year. According to Qingyuan, it's probably between two months and half a year. It could be two months or three months. I can't say for sure."
The second uncle sighed and said:
"That's what I say, but we can't bet. The bet is only for two months."
"Didn't you always say that you should be prepared for the worst outcome? Since it may be half a year, then we have to consider how to prepare based on the thunderstorms in half a year..."
Li Yu felt equally heavy. What his second uncle said was not what he thought.
It is undoubtedly a huge challenge for them to prepare for the thunderstorm disaster that occurs every six months.
Although Li Yu had made some preparations before, it seems that it may not be enough now.
Moreover, there is also the uncertainty factor of zombie mutation, which seems to make it even more difficult.
If they are not adequately prepared this time, they will face huge losses.
Thinking of this, Li Yu said:
"Then let's prepare as planned for half a year. I'll tell you my thoughts first."
The second uncle sat on the stone bench, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and said, "You tell me."
Li Yu stood up, thought for a moment and said:
"In the base, He Bing and the others were previously asked to install a floor-to-ceiling lightning system and a lightning protection grounding system. I think this aspect needs to be strengthened and we must ensure that every building has these.
In addition, I think the zombie generator should also take lightning protection measures, otherwise it will be troublesome if a thunderstorm causes the generator to malfunction."
"In terms of personnel, I think Sanshu and Haoran should be allowed to return to the Zhangshu Base as soon as possible."
"In addition to the trading market in Oil City, I think the infrastructure construction of the trading market should be suspended and the wall of the trading market should be raised to more than 25 meters first."
"Besides, the wall on the northern border is relatively high and the defense is pretty good."
"I think we should start recruiting construction personnel again and recruit some affiliated forces from the North to take refuge in the Oil City. In addition, we will recruit members of the affiliated forces to take refuge in the North. It is their business to listen or not. If they don't come, then don't worry about it.
"
According to Li Yu's expectations, although the thunderstorm natural disaster was terrifying, he felt that it might not last that long.
So he felt that the trading market should still be built as scheduled.
But now it seems that zombie mutations are very likely to occur during thunderstorms and natural disasters.
This disaster was more severe than he imagined.
He had to change his original plan.
The second uncle smoked a cigarette and listened quietly to Li Yu's words.
After a while, the second uncle finally said:
"But there is a problem. A large number of affiliated forces from the Northern Territory have entered the Northern Territory. If there is civil strife, wouldn't it be even more troublesome?"
Li Yu frowned and said, "It's okay. Go into the city and disarm. They can't do much without guns. Besides, when a thunderstorm comes, they have to obey even if they don't obey."
"If they really dare to cause trouble, the worst they can do is abandon the outer city and let Lao Yi and the others retreat to the inner city."
"If the inner city also falls, there is a last resort. Yuan Zhi set up a tunnel under the former Governor's Mansion and asked Lao Yi to clear the tunnel and hide there."
When the second uncle heard what Li Yu said, he had at least two escape routes, one step at a time.
Even if they encounter a dangerous situation, Lao Yi and the others can be guaranteed to survive.
So he opened his mouth and said:
"According to what you said, it's okay to go there. Then I have no problem going to the northern border."
"Tell me about Oil City. There are many people there."
"And there are people from Southern Paradise. How about suspending all the construction of the trading market and letting the people from Southern Paradise go back first? After all, we don't know when the thunderstorm will break out. It may be three days later, or it may be a week later.
"
When Li Yu heard this, he hesitated.
He knew when the thunderstorm disaster would occur and that there were still twenty-five days left, but Qingyuan did not predict this.
So he opened his mouth and said:
"According to Qingyuan's divination, there are still more than twenty days, and there is still time. It is not a good idea to suspend the trading market now. The most important thing now is to do our best to enhance the ability of the Oil City and the trading market to withstand natural disasters.
"
"In addition, Second Uncle, I feel that it is difficult for Southern Paradise to survive this natural disaster. I think maybe we can invite Mr. Tiger to come to Oil City to avoid the natural disaster before the natural disaster."
"If he doesn't want to, then just give them a heads up like before."
