I will survive with proficiency

Chapter 40 Corpse Carrier

After a few days, the after-dinner conversations in Lianyun City were all about the disaster of the monster migration.

Chen Ping knew the general situation without deliberately inquiring.

Lian Yuncheng has lost contact with Qingyun Sect, so he doesn't know what's going on outside.

This means that the defense of the city has lost its backbone and support.

In Lianyun City, the leader of the city defense died in this disaster. Not only that, many city defenses were also not spared. The remaining city defenses could not resist the temptation brought by the looting during this period of time, and joined the looting army one after another, and their status in the hearts of the casual cultivators plummeted.

The defense of the city was almost torn apart and it was difficult to sustain.

Lianyun City is in an unprecedented state of disorganization, or in other words, it is difficult for the organization to maintain the current order of Lianyun City.

In this disaster, no less than one-fifth of the population of Lianyun City died.

The monster came so suddenly and it was late at night, many people had no time to escape. Especially the casual cultivators near the east wall of the city, almost no one was spared.

There has been a big reshuffle of the scattered cultivator's residences in Lianyun City. A large number of casual cultivators moved closer to the center, and each found an unoccupied house to temporarily live in, and those places closer to the city wall were basically vacant.

After several days of looting, the empty house that lost its owner has basically not been looted, and the phenomenon of rummaging through other people's houses has gradually decreased, and it is already rare.

If you search again, you can't find any treasures.

Lianyun City began to calm down.

Because a large number of houses collapsed, when people recovered from the frenzy of looting, they began to reconsider life, livelihood and practice.

After all, no matter how chaotic the past was, life had to go on.

On the sixth day after the disaster, Yu Qingyi called together more than forty households near this street.

"Everyone, the defense of the city has been counted on for the time being. Now Lianyun City has calmed down, and we have to continue to live. The old man suggests that the neighbors work together to at least maintain the order of this street."

Yu Qingyi is highly respected in the entire Sanxiu District, let alone in this street, so basically everyone responds to it.

Everyone agreed.

Chen Ping was secretly glad that he had chosen a good house. Under such circumstances, it is the best thing to have a person with sufficient strength and prestige who can stand up and lead the crowd.

Many streets are still in a tense, disorderly or dazed atmosphere.

"What suggestion does Mr. Yu have? All the monks on this street form a patrol team by themselves? If that's the case, this monk is willing to serve as the captain of the patrol team." A monk eager to try.

"I think the priority is to unite with other streets and establish a temporary trading market. It doesn't matter if it is small, otherwise life will be unsustainable." A monk who made a lot of money remonstrated.

"..."

Yu Qingyi finally said:

"You guys are right, but these are not the most urgent, but wait and see. The most urgent thing right now is to restore the entire street to its original state. Fellow Taoists, take a look, the corpses on the street have been there for so many days Still in place, the stone road is still full of potholes, and the broken walls in some places even blocked the road... How is this decent? These must be cleaned up and repaired. Only in this way can the street return to normal, and those monks who have evil thoughts dare not rash."

"What do you guys think?"

What Yu Qingyi said makes sense... Chen Ping secretly thought.

That is to say, Yu Qingyi does not understand the concept of future generations, otherwise he would definitely know that this is called the "broken window effect".

As long as the street is still in dilapidated condition, those cultivators who have evil intentions don't mind throwing an extra stone. But if the whole street is clean and tidy, it will have a positive effect.

Potential deterrent to gangsters.

Because of Yu Qingyi's high moral character and reasoned words, the plan was passed quickly.

Someone proposed to go to Fangshi to find mortal labor or the lowest level of Qi practitioners.

But it was quickly rejected.

At this time, not to mention many low-level mortals and Qi practitioners failed to escape this catastrophe. For those who survived, under the redistribution of benefits, some people do not lack a little money at present, while other low-level monks are unwilling to take risks. And those who are willing to come out have long been divided up by the families in the West District and those firms in the city.

Can only do it yourself.

Next is the division of labor.

Some went to transport stones outside the city, some cleaned up blood, some laid street floors, some disposed of corpses, some cleaned up ruined walls in public areas...

Chen Ping, as a strong young man, was assigned the job of carrying corpses.

Chen Ping didn't say anything, it was only natural to contribute to his own living environment.

Danger can be avoided, but responsibility cannot be avoided.

"Chen Daoyou, let's go. These tasks are not too many, so finish early and rest early." A strong middle-aged monk greeted Chen Ping.

"Fellow Daoist, wait a moment, it will be ready soon."

Chen Ping answered without raising his head, and was busy pasting the talisman on himself.

Lifting up the robe, he posted evil talismans on each of his legs. He had a lot of such talismans. After pasting the legs, do the same on the arms. Then put the excess on the chest.

The same is true for the evil spirit talisman.

As long as these talismans are not destroyed, they can be used repeatedly, which is perfect for self-defense.

The brawny fellow Taoist beside him couldn't help but sneered and said, "You, if you don't know, you think that fellow Taoist is going to cross the endless forest!"

Just this street.

Just clean up the corpse!

Chen Ping just smiled and was busy posting talismans... Those corpses have been dead for five or six days, who knows if the resentment has dissipated or turned into evil spirits?

Besides.

Still go outside the city to bury the corpse, the danger is definitely not low! !

It was early winter, and Lianyun City, located at the southwestern tip of Piaomiao Continent, was not considered to be flooded with heavy snow and winter months, but the temperature had also begun to drop sharply, and the wind was bitterly cold.

Under such weather, the corpses that had died on the street for several days did not rot, but were a little stiff.

Such a corpse is not difficult to carry.

What Chen Ping and his companions needed to do was to transport the corpse to a wooden cart, and then drag it outside the city to bury it. The rest of the task was not theirs.

Neighbors have a clear division of labor.

'Um? What's this? '

‘There is actually a low-grade spirit stone. Unexpected surprise, it is very good. '

Chen Ping put the corpse away, and silently confiscated the spirit stones... Less is less, but fly meat is also meat, and less is more.

He carefully carried several corpses, and then dragged them out of the city with a few fellow Taoists.

The further east you go, the more trampled the streets are, no less than a major earthquake, far worse than the West District, and there are ruins everywhere.

‘I am afraid that it will not be easy to rebuild this city, and it will take a lot of time. '

‘I am afraid it will be difficult to completely recover from the chaos in a short period of time. '

Chen Ping thought to himself.

After leaving the city, he walked towards the forest for a certain distance, but the closer he got to the forest, the more gloomy he felt. Chen Ping touched the evil spirit talisman in his arms, and felt a little hot.

"Just bury it here, we can't go any further." Chen Ping suggested.

"What Chen Daoyou said is very true."

"I think so too."

"."

Several other teammates echoed.

'Good friends, I will look for you next time we cooperate. ’ Chen Ping praised them in his heart.

If the whole world has such fellow Taoists, why not work together on the way of longevity?

Such a monk is the right way in the world.

There should be an award!

"Hurry up, everyone, my evil spirit talisman is getting hot." A monk also noticed something abnormal.

Having just experienced the crossing of monsters and evil spirits, most of the monks still have lingering fears in their hearts.

No one wants to take unnecessary risks.

Chen Ping took the opportunity to ask:

"Have fellow daoists been here before? Is the evil spirit talisman so prone to fever?"

When the evil spirit talisman gets hot, it means the existence of evil spirits.

Those who are evil are also demons and monsters.

Evil spirits are weird and unpredictable, and their traces are hard to find. The world knows little about them, and they are often more difficult to deal with than demon cultivators, demons, and evil cultivators who can see their shapes.

Some evil spirits are only for wandering souls and will not hurt people, but some evil spirits are full of evil spirits, and the risk factor is very high.

"I've been here, why haven't I been here? I've been in the forest dozens of miles deep, it's not like it is now." Fellow Daoist said while digging a hole.

Chen Ping understood.

I'm afraid that the number of demons and monsters in the forest has increased. Maybe it hasn't completely crossed the border, or maybe it's re-migrated from the depths.

This is not good news for Lian Yuncheng.

Seeing that the atmosphere is a bit heavy, Chen Ping intends to enliven the atmosphere for everyone, so he said:

"Hurry up and dig, this hole may be mine waiting for me if it's too late."

then.

Hey hey, hey hey.

The speed at which everyone dug the pit in silence became faster.

these teammates,
