Chapter Thirty-Four: The Niu Family Camp in the Dead City
Chapter 34 The Dead City ‘Niujiaying’
As the sun sets in the west, a red sun sprays its last afterglow, illuminating the sky with blood red and illuminating the broken earth walls with spots. ┃26nbsp;┃
On the earth wall, a wooden plaque that has become somewhat moldy hangs horizontally, with the three large pale yellow characters of Niujiaying vaguely visible on it.
Niujiaying is an undead city located thirty miles away from Changshan. A plague occurred here more than a hundred years ago. Most of the residents in the inner city were infected and died in the city. In the entire Niujiaying, there were less than two people.
A few lucky ones escaped this disaster, but from then on, Niujiaying was regarded as an ominous place by hundreds of miles around, and no one dared to set foot there again.
Niujiaying, which has been abandoned for a hundred years, today welcomes its first guests in a century, the Qiu family!
In order to find a place to stay, Qiu Xuan had no choice but to choose this place. It's not that there are no other cities around, but that the Qiu family is now walking on thin ice. Even some martial arts families are eyeing them, and their powerful patron saint 'Chen Feng'
’ but has been in a coma, which forced Qiu Xuan to choose this legendary and ominous place.
The long walk made the Qiu family exhausted, especially some children, who could not bear the hunger and cried quietly in the crowd. Although the adults around them tried their best to warn their children not to cry, their scoldings only had an effect.
The opposite effect.
In the Niu family camp, Qiu Xuan asked Zhang Long to find a dilapidated house for Chen Feng to rest, and then called the third grandfather Lu Pengfei and others to her side.
Ever since everyone discovered the close relationship between Lu Pengfei and Chen Feng, he has been classified as a core member of the Qiu family.
"Third Grandpa, we are afraid that we will not be able to leave Niujiaying in a short period of time, but we are extremely short of supplies. I wonder if you can do anything?" Although Qiu Xuan has been in charge of the Qiu family's great cause, she rarely walks in the world, so she is facing the situation in front of her.
There is no good solution for the situation.
"###, as long as you have money in the world, you can buy a lot of food!" Third Grandpa thought for a long time without saying anything, but Lu Pengfei said.
After what Lu Pengfei said, Qiu Xuan suddenly realized. She glanced at Lu Pengfei appreciatively, and then looked at Zhang Long and others: "Zhang Long, go and organize everyone, and then see if everyone has brought any money or materials!"
"Yes!" Zhang Long turned around and left, then came back with a sad face: "###, we have been self-sufficient in the mountains all year round. Although everyone has some money and supplies, we are not rich!"
With that said, Zhang Long reached out and took out a money bag, which contained several gold particles and dozens of pieces of broken silver.
Qiu Xuan looked at the money and items in Zhang Long's hands for a while, then frowned slightly: "How much food can this money be exchanged for?"
"Well 7e" Zhang Long looked at the money in his hand, then turned to look at the Qiu family behind him. After thinking for a while, he said: "It should be enough to sustain everyone's needs for two days, but after two days..."
Zhang Long paused, but everyone understood the meaning. Qiu Xuan's body was covered in blood, her pretty face wrinkled, and she sighed helplessly. It was only enough for everyone to eat for two days. What should we do after those two days?
"###?" Zhang Long interrupted Qiu Xuan's thinking and looked awkwardly at the Qiu family members behind him who were looking at Qiu Xuan eagerly.
Qiu Xuan suddenly understood, then she squeezed out a smile and slowly walked towards the crowd.
"Uncles, aunts, grandparents, and Xuan'er are here. First of all, I want to thank you all for your persistence. Since you have chosen our Qiu family, I will give you an explanation. The Qiu family has indeed encountered some difficulties for the time being, but I
I believe that as long as we unite together, one day we will go back to Changshan and take back everything that belongs to us."
The brief words brought boundless hope. Those who can stand here at this time are the loyal supporters of the Qiu family. What they need most now is Qiu Xuan to lead them strongly. It can be said that as long as Qiu Xuan can lead them,
As long as Xuan is still there, the Qiu family will always exist.
"###, don't worry, the Qiu family will not fall like this! Neither will we!"
"Yes! ###, one day, the Qiu family will get back their own share of honor!"
"..."
There were divergent opinions for a while, but no matter what, after these passionate words, the depressive atmosphere seemed to be much less intense.
Qiu Xuan looked at the people who were shouting with a smile, and the corners of her eyes were a little moist. It is easy to add flowers to a cake, but it is difficult to provide help in times of trouble. The Qiu family is now in such decline, but it can still be so united. What else do you have to fear? As they say, one day, one day
, she will get back the honor and glory that the Qiu family deserves. Thinking of this, Qiu Xuan unconsciously looked towards the room where Chen Feng was.
After the noise, Qiu Xuan stretched out her hand and pressed it down. Everyone immediately stopped talking, and thousands of pairs of eyes looked at Qiu Xuan.
"Xuan'er understands everyone's feelings. From today on, our Qiu family will work together. No matter what difficulties we face, let us face them together."
After saying this, Qiu Xuan paused for a moment, and then continued: "We will rest here for a few days. Now everyone can go find a place you like, but remember not to go too far in order to meet unexpected needs. Let's disperse first.
After an hour, distribute the food!"
After saying that, Qiu Xuan turned to look at Zhang Long and others: "Zhang Long, you bring some skilled people to the surrounding cities and spend all your money to buy food. Remember to leave quickly and come back quickly, and don't cause trouble!"
"Yes!" Zhang Long cupped his hands towards Qiu Xuan and without delay, turned around and called to several men, then rushed out of the city.
After everything was ready, Qiu Xuan walked quickly towards Chen Feng's room.
The door was slowly pushed open, and in the dilapidated hut, all the furniture had long been torn, exuding a strong musty smell, while Chen Feng was lying on a dusty earthen bed with his eyes closed.
Qiu Xuan walked slowly to the Tukang and looked down at Chen Feng as if he was hesitating. After a moment, Qiu Xuan seemed to have made some decision and slowly stretched out her little hand and touched Chen Feng's cheek.
But as soon as her little hand reached halfway, Qiu Xuan stopped moving, because in front of her eyes, a palm full of mud formed a sharp contrast with Chen Feng's white robe.
Her little hand trembled slightly in the air, and then she weakly retracted it. Qiu Xuan just looked at Chen Feng silently, feeling a trace of inferiority unconsciously in her heart.
Who am I? A lost dog, a mortal without spiritual roots, a leader who doesn’t know how to face the Qiu family in two days.
As for the other person, he has used his cultivation to reach the gods at a young age. Not only is he brave and resourceful, but he is also pregnant with ancient strange formations. Why should I like him? Why should I touch him with dirty hands? Do I deserve it?
A sigh suddenly sounded in the room, and then a graceful figure slowly left. In the dim and musty room, the figure looked lonely and desolate...
