Traveling through the new apocalyptic era

Chapter 77

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, only less than 4 people could keep up with the vanguard of the 2 people. Yin Lingzhui was at the back of the team because after everyone discussed, 5 practitioners and 300 soldiers were left behind with some food. The vanguard will take the first step and will return to support them after arriving at the base. Everyone cannot stop on the road.

Five cultivators, Yin Ling, Su Wu, Su Nian, Xie Fei and Xie Ran, stayed, while Liu Enqi, Xianglin, left with the troops in front. The 300 people in the army were led by captains and did not need to be managed by them.

However, the remaining 2 people were also separated by a long distance. Yin Ling and the others dispersed together with the army. In fact, there was not much they could do at this time, except to provide a dinner and One serving of hot water.

The road still needs to be walked by everyone's own efforts. Those who are physically weak or physically weak can only regretfully stay on the road halfway.

Yin Ling walked at the end of the team. Looking at the trembling people supporting each other, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. If she was not a cultivator, or she was in the previous life, it would be difficult for her to survive at this time.

At seven o'clock in the evening, without any organization, everyone began to gather near the army to find a place to rest, and then waited in silence for a bowl of hot porridge.

Yin Ling found a place leeward and sat down, took out a water cup and drank it all in one breath. She was also a little tired these days, and the spiritual energy from the outside world was thin and could not be supplemented. She could only rely on what she brought from another world. Shui scrawled, adding that there were still a few drops of condensed spiritual spring water in her space, but she didn't move. She would save this for the critical moment. As for what the critical moment was, she would know it by then.

In the middle of the night, Yin Ling was woken up by the wind. When he opened his eyes, a snowflake fell on his face. It started to snow again. Snowing at night is not a good thing. Everyone was cuddling together and sleeping soundly, big and small. Countless fires are still burning, but the snowflakes falling on the body will soon wet the coat. Coupled with the low temperature at night, people will become hypothermic and die.

Soldiers on duty have already woken up those who were still sleeping, asking everyone to get up and move around to avoid being buried by the increasingly heavy snow.

The fire started to grow again, some people were silent, the fire was bright and dim due to the wind blowing on their faces, some people cried, because of this difficult road and the unknown tomorrow, people who didn't know each other hugged each other, just for that little bit of warmth and warmth. vitality.

After waiting for three hours, it was just dawn. Today's porridge was a little thinner. Because we didn't know how many days we would have to walk, we had already started to save food. No one was full, but supplies were limited, so we could eat whatever we had. It's true, some people's eyes turned red when they saw the army carrying food, but they couldn't do anything but follow silently.

The snow on the road thickened again, but fortunately there were many people, and soon they left footprints. People followed in the footsteps of their predecessors, but many people lost feeling in their legs as they walked, and their feet were cold. Try to keep moving. , but there is not much warmth in the body.

The snow is still falling, getting heavier and heavier, the wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the pace of progress is getting slower and slower.

Yin Ling stopped and found a high ruin to climb up and look out. The team had stretched at least 2 kilometers, and was losing members all the time. They were either too tired to fall down and unable to stand up, or they were unwilling to move forward to find the ruins. We settled in a ruins, and no one cared about it, because everyone seemed to be used to it, and there were fewer people around us as we walked.

By noon, the team had collapsed. No one cared whether it was time to rest or whether they were left behind again. The endless white world and the falling snowflakes made it impossible to see hope.

Yin Ling found the person in charge of the army and discussed it. They couldn't take many people away under the current situation.

Looking at the young officer with dark circles under his eyes, Yin Ling made a cruel suggestion, "Stop, divide all the food, and let everyone go their own way. We are only responsible for leading the way." There was a moment of silence, yes. , the queue is getting longer and longer, they can't take care of so many people, even to eat, many people have to struggle to catch up and take a hot bite.

Moreover, it was very tiring for them to haul so much supplies, and many brothers couldn't stand it anymore.

In the end, it was decided to rest where they were, light the fire rack and pot, fry the rice and noodles, and distribute the prepared noodles together. Based on the population, the distribution should be three days' rations.

But there is a drawback, that is, someone may snatch the food, so if you want to hold on to the food after getting it, you must follow the large army closely, which can be regarded as a motivation for everyone to move forward.

The extra carts were thrown away directly, leaving only a few large pots for boiling hot water. As for the storage bag, only one was allocated. It was still at Wang Yu's place to contain the base's supplies, so many things still relied on manpower. pull.

Yin Ling and Su Wu fought and met each other, but they still walked behind the team. They set up a fire at night and started to boil hot water. If you want to drink hot water, you have to keep up with the large army. Of course, those with strong physical strength can bring their own. An iron pot can also be used to boil some water, but now that everyone can throw away non-essential things, who is still carrying the pot?

The wind and snow subsided a little at night, so everyone could barely get some sleep. When they got up in the morning, they had a bowl of hot water and a portion of dry food before setting off again.

Calculating the distance, we can reach it tomorrow night, and the team ahead can reach Lingshan base tonight.

But Yin Ling felt a little bad, because it was not yet noon, and the sky was already as dark as five or six o'clock in the afternoon. Coupled with the increasing wind and snow, it clearly felt like a blizzard was coming.

Everyone seems to be aware of this. Those who are keen are already looking for ruins that can block the wind and snow. What to do? At this time, if you continue to move forward, you will be buried in the fierce wind and snow. If you don’t move forward, there will be no solid place to block the wind. Snow.

Yin Ling released his spiritual consciousness to search nearby. There were old residential areas here, and the residential areas were all about 6 stories. Fortunately, the collapse was not serious, but it could not be used as a shelter, because it was very likely that it would not be able to withstand the snowstorm and collapse again.

Finally, less than 2 kilometers away, Yin Ling found a school. The teaching buildings around the school were half-collapsed, but fortunately there was no problem with the large playground in the middle. The surrounding ruins could be used as walls to block some wind and snow. The classrooms The tables and chairs inside can also be turned out for use.

Without further ado, Yin Ling rushed to the front, found the person in charge of the army, and explained the plan. Everyone agreed to avoid the wind and snow first, so Yin Ling led the way, while hundreds of soldiers behind him either shouted with loudspeakers or I shouted in my voice and started to organize people to go to take refuge. I could go as many as I could, but we couldn't guarantee that so many people would be safe.

Yin Ling was exploring the way with his spiritual consciousness in front, walking very quickly, followed by Xie Fei and a dozen soldiers, who took the first step to see the situation of the school.
