From Refuge To Doomsday

Chapter 60: The Plague

"Red sand beach? It's very dangerous there. We dare not go to the Valley of Death, let alone go there. It is said that it is the hometown of mutant beasts."

Yu Guo was taken aback for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "What are your myths and legends?"

"No, what the high priest is talking about is the history passed down by people's mouth, saying that mutant beasts came out of the Valley of Death."

"How do you say it?" Yu Guo was a little puzzled, Nia thought for a while, she looked towards Death Valley and said slowly: "It is said that there used to be a very arrogant and powerful country in this land, and that country used to be the largest country in the world. Leaders, they are arrogant. In order to suppress other countries and prevent other countries from rising, they began to use some very dark witchcraft and did many shameful things. Finally, they tasted the sweetness in this way and began to become Insane. In the end, in order to keep their own status, they launched a nuclear war without hesitation, leading to the extinction of mankind."

Yu Guo laughed, and said in a low voice, "What a coincidence, there is such a place where I live."

"By the way, that country, did they really perish in the end?"

"In the legend, it seems that some people have left. They built a wall of arrogance so that they can maintain their aloofness, and then they don't let outsiders in to keep themselves strong. I don't know where. "

Yu Guo thought for a while, and then said: "That is to say, those people are probably still alive. They built a closed city-state to trap themselves in it, preventing outsiders from entering, so they are still alive?"

"I don't know, these are legends, and I don't know. Moreover, even if there are, it will be difficult for us to reach them."

Yu Guo smiled, nodded and said, "Well, if there is one, I'd like to see it."

"Go back, the mountain wind is very strong." Because of the strong mountain wind, Yu Guo dragged Nia down from the mountain. When the two entered the yard, they found Anna squatting on the ground and playing with stones. Yu Guo hurriedly said, "What are you doing here?"

"These stones are very beautiful, so I used them to play with."

Yu Guo took a look and found that these stones were all quartz. He touched the little guy's head and said, "Go back, it's snowing too much outside, it's not good for your health if you stay for a long time."

"Well, good dad!"

Looking at the little guy's appearance, Yu Guo really couldn't bear it. He thought for a while, then went into the warehouse to find some rags in various colors, and then took out some cotton and leather, and Yu Guo made it in the room. a doll. Although the doll was ugly, when Yu Guo took it out and handed it to Anna, the little guy's eyes kept shining. She happily hugged the doll and asked, "Daddy, what is this?"

"It's a doll, for you. Do you like it?"

"Well, I really like it!" Anna's happy eyes turned into two crescents, and Yu Guo pinched her little face in distress, and then said, "I made you suffer."

"It's not bitter! I'm very happy when I'm with Dad!"

"Well, Dad will find a way to make you something fun. So that you won't be so boring. Just wait!"

Yu Guo hurriedly found a few pieces of wood, and then began to cut and polish it with peace of mind. Made a whole set of building blocks for Anna, and when Yu Guo brought the building blocks in front of Anna, the little guy danced happily. She held the blocks carefully for fear of breaking them.

A pair of building blocks and an ugly doll, these are Anna's toys. It was also the first time she saw a toy when she was so old.

Yu Guo originally waited for the snow to stop before going out to have a look, but it only stopped for two days, and the heavy snow started to fall again.

In the past, Yu Guo would have taken Anna to leave early to wander in the wilderness. It is absolutely impossible to survive in the wasteland in such a winter.

But now Yu Guo has a shelter, which is warm and comfortable, with sufficient food and the company of two women.

The little life was really pleasant, and recently Yu Guo brought the chickens back to the refuge, and the chickens here unexpectedly hatched a batch of chicks.

Looking at those little chickens, Yu Guo was very happy, because it proved that his domestication was successful, and he could continue to raise chickens here, and he could also let the Red Castle raise them in the future.

"Squeak——" When Yu Guo was thinking about how to get a chicken farm in the future, there was a sound of electricity coming from the radio, and then he heard Gore's urgent call.

"Call base, call base."

Yu Guo was very anxious when he heard his voice, something must have happened!

"The base received."

"Brother, something happened. Since yesterday, there have been consecutive cases of febrile patients here, and ten of them have died. All of them have no kang at home."

"Speak slowly, what's going on?" Yu Guo's heart tightened, and Gao Er whispered: "The continuous heavy snow and low temperature have caused many people to suffer from severe diarrhea and fever. Several of them died from burning charcoal. The downsizing was very severe, and the villagers were afraid of being infected. I don’t know what to do now, and the heavy snow hasn’t stopped yet, Grandpa Fama has already started to take in some people who don’t have the disease.”

Yu Guo's heart sank, and he whispered, "The plague..."

"plague?"

"They dig holes at home, and mice will also dig holes. If their food is stored at home, it will be easier to attract mice. How about lying in a hole?"

"You mean, a mouse? A mutant mouse?"

Yu Guo nodded, he forgot about it, those people dig holes at home for heating, it is very easy to attract mice, that's for sure! Especially this winter is very weird, it came very quickly, and the temperature dropped very quickly. The food and heating for the mice in the winter are both problems, so it's no wonder they can't figure out the problem.

The difference is with the kang, they are on the kang, and the ground is compacted, even if there are mice, it is not that serious.

"Immediately find a way to clear the snow out, and gather the sick people together to isolate them so that the plague cannot spread. Those who have no problems are all at home and don't need to wander around. We can't let the plague spread!"

Gore knew the severity of the plague, because he had encountered it once when he was young, and many people died.

When it happened again this time, he really didn't know what to do.

"So, don't you have a brick kiln? Immediately ask someone to go into the brick kiln, hollow out the bottom, connect it to the flue, let these people live in it and isolate them, find a way to solve the heating problem, and isolate them at the same time. Let the plague continue to spread! Otherwise, you will almost die in spring!"

"I understand, but what if they don't cooperate?" Gore asked nervously.

Gritting his teeth, Yu Guo said in a gloomy voice: "If you don't cooperate, then do it. I don't need to say anything more. If you die with everyone, someone needs to be the bad guy."
