Chapter 49 I raised a turtle

 At this time, the stairs were crowded with people, and everyone was rushing to run down.

There are so many people crowded on the stairs, and they are all running down. If you push me and I carry you, accidents can easily happen.

Nan Ci had no intention of maintaining order, and had no intention of crowding with these people. He just walked down slowly with the three old Taoist priests.

Walking on the stairs, Mu Qianqian would look down from time to time and ask questions in her heart.

"Nan Ci, tell me, why did such a big ship suddenly arrive? Is it really someone from the government who came to rescue us?"

Nan Ci glanced at Mu Qianqian and said, "How many people do you think this boat can live in? How many boats like this are there?"

The permanent population of X city exceeds 10 million. Even after the heavy rain, many people were trapped or even died, and there were still nearly 10 million survivors.

City X is not a city near the sea, so naturally there are not many ships. Send a ship out to rescue people. Where will they be placed after they are rescued?

If the authorities really had enough ships, the first thing they would do would definitely not be to transfer survivors, but to salvage supplies, and then dispatch supplies to various places on a regular basis.

After hearing Nan Ci's words, Mu Qianqian thought carefully and nodded, "You're right. Just such a ship can't even accommodate the remaining people in our building, let alone

There are many buildings in this community.

Since they are not official, what are they here for?"

Nan Ci smiled slightly, "When you get down there, won't you know the answer?"

Hearing this, Mu Qianqian quickened her pace, "Then I'll go down quickly and find a better position, otherwise I won't be able to hear you."

When he saw Mu Qianqian running down, Zhou Ziyang hurriedly chased after him without saying a word.

Both of them were very fast, and soon they were down two floors, putting some distance between them and the old Taoist priest Nanci.

Nan Ci was really not in a hurry, but when he saw the old Taoist priests around him who were also old gods, he couldn't help but be a little curious, "Taoist Master, why don't you wonder what these people are here for?"

"I'm curious!" the old Taoist priest said leisurely, "So didn't I come down to take a look?"

This statement made so much sense that Nan Ci didn’t know how to answer it.

Nan Ci is not someone who always has something to talk to.

Nan Ci, who didn't know what to say, simply shut up.

Unexpectedly, after going down another floor, the old Taoist priest slowly spoke again.

"The tiger you raised is quite quiet."

Nan Ci's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained calm. He slowly turned his head and looked at the old Taoist priest.

The two met each other's eyes and looked at each other without saying a word.

Nan Ci didn't speak because he wasn't sure what the old Taoist meant.

They have collaborated several times.

But these times, they never mentioned Zaizai.

Now that the old Taoist priest suddenly said this, Nan Ci was really not sure what his purpose was.

A strange silence spread around the two people.

Nan Ci was about to speak when he saw the old Taoist priest speaking again.

"I have a turtle, and it is very noisy. I want to go out and play every day."

Nan Ci, "???"

The turtle is making a fuss? Still want to go out and play?

Although Nan Ci has never raised a turtle, it is not that he has never seen one before.

How could a turtle raised by a decent person make a fuss?

"The Taoist priest is joking. Turtles can't bark, so why are they making such a fuss?"

Besides, it’s raining heavily outside now, and the water is as high as dozens of stories high. What can the turtle do when he goes out?

Could it be that he remembered the past memories and wanted to return to the embrace of the sea?

The corners of the old Taoist priest's mouth curled up, revealing a slightly sloppy smile, "I'll let you see me later, and you will know."

After saying that, the old Taoist priest sighed, "Your tiger is still obedient!"

Nan Ci frowned.

If it was just suspicion before, Nan Ci can now be sure that the old Taoist priest really meant what he said.

Nan Ci wanted to ask carefully, but the old Taoist priest did not give her this chance.

"Arrived."

Hearing the old Taoist priest say two more words, Nan Ci subconsciously turned his head and looked down. Sure enough, he saw that the stairs on the next floor were crowded with people.

Nan Ci looked carefully and saw Mu Qianqian and Zhou Ziyang.

The two of them were being attacked from both sides.

There were so many people in front and back that it was difficult to move.

With so many people here, it is really not suitable to continue the topic just now.

Nan Ci had no choice but to suppress the strangeness in her heart and decided to ask questions properly after going upstairs for a while.

The place below was crowded with people, the crowd was surging, and the crowd was noisy.

Looking at it like this, it seems that everyone who can move in the building is here.

With so many people, it’s impossible for them all to go to the 20th floor. What’s the use of being crowded here and unable to see anything?

Just as Nan Ci was thinking this, he suddenly heard the sound of a loudspeaker.

"Quiet! Everyone, please be quiet!"

The man's voice was amplified countless times through the loudspeaker.

Even though Nan Ci and the old Taoist priest were far away from the twentieth floor, they heard these words clearly.

The noisy crowd instantly became quiet after hearing this sound.

But it only lasted for a moment before it broke out again.

This time people were cheering and shouting, and some even cried with excitement.

Since the power outage, they have never used any electrical appliances.

Now that they heard the voices coming from the loudspeaker, they saw the hope of using electricity. How could they not be excited?

The man with the loudspeaker shouted several more times before finally getting the crowd to quiet down again.

"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me! I believe you have seen our ship. We are here today just to take you away. But the size of our ship is limited, and the base is also under construction and is not perfect yet.

But some young and capable people helped build the base in the past, and when the base was completed, they could take over the remaining people.

If you are willing to go over and help build the base, then come over to me and get on the boat with me."

As soon as the man finished speaking, the crowd burst into laughter, "Yes! We are all willing!"

"I know everyone is willing, but building a base is not easy. Children and the elderly cannot keep up physically and mentally, so they are not suitable for construction. It is better to wait here and wait until the base is completed before going.

Only young people are suitable for this job! Especially some bold and careful girls have a natural advantage in arranging bases. Of course boys also need it, but they focus on different aspects.

I'll give you five minutes. If you're willing to go, just come and board the ship. You don't need to bring anything with you. Food and drink are all covered by the base.

By the way, because the cabin is limited, the base asked the girls to go there first for emergency response, while the boys waited for the next batch."

When the man finished speaking, the crowd exploded again.

The heated discussion echoed throughout the stairwell, like tens of thousands of flies and mosquitoes hovering around Nan Ci's ears.

This is not what makes Nan Ci the most irritated.

What made Nan Ci frown was the man's words just now.
