Through the binoculars, the scene of black blood and corpses that he had imagined did not appear. Instead, Zhu Changqing saw a newly built city wall in the depths of Ye County near the mountains.
The most incredible thing was that the wall was made of rock.
A rock wall required a lot of construction. Even a survivor's team of a hundred people couldn't build such a five-meter-high wall.
"It seems that there are a lot of survivors living in this small Ye County."
Zhu Changqing's voice was transmitted to Jiang Liushi through the walkie-talkie. Jiang Liushi was shocked. At that distance, he could see the wall in the depths of the town with his naked eye. Compared with the low buildings in the town, the five-meter-high wall was quite eye-catching.
After doomsday, there was a lack of construction machinery. Stone and building materials were not so easy to find. Moreover, there was a lack of food. This wall was indeed a huge project.
It seemed that there were many paranormals in Ye County, and the survivors should be relatively well preserved. They had even built a simple base.
This made Jiang Liushi feel a little relieved. After all, it was the place where he had lived in his childhood. He didn't want it to become a hell.
"Xiyu." Jiang Liushi called her gently.
"Yes."
Ran Xiyu nodded. She didn't need Jiang Liushi's order. Her perception had spread out, directly through the wall, covering a large area behind the wall.
"There are a lot of people behind the wall, about four or five hundred people, among which there are four or five paranormals..."
"Four or five hundred people?"
That number was indeed a lot for a small town like Ye County with only tens of thousands of people.
Jiang Liushi told Zhu Changqing about the situation. Because the town's main road was through the wall, they had to enter the survivors' gathering area.
Armored vehicles led the way, and a group of people rumbled toward the gathering area.
...
At that moment, inside the wall, it was a completely different scene.
"Boss Sun, the army is coming! So many people, so many guns! There are also armored vehicles! "
In this gathering area, there was actually a small palace. This palace was built according to the main hall of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Of course, probably because of the level of construction, many parts of the palace looked a bit awkward. Even so, the appearance of such a palace after the end of the world was inconceivable.
The palace was surrounded by walls, and it was even divided into the front hall and the back hall.
There was even a ten-meter-wide moat outside the palace walls. It was a river that flowed through Ye County and was diverted here to fill the moat.
"Army? Armored vehicles? "
The person called Boss Sun was wearing a bright yellow robe. He looked to be around forty years old. His eyebrows were thick and his stature was tall. He looked quite dignified.
Most survivors would be overjoyed when they heard that the military had arrived.
But when Boss Sun heard that the army was coming, his heart tightened and he was filled with worry.
"Damn it! Why would an army come to a small place like Ye County? Do they have nothing better to do? "
As Big Brother Sun spoke, he took off his robe and changed into a set of clothes. Then, he followed the spy up the city wall.
From afar, seven or eight military vehicles were lined up in a row.
In the front was a 92-wheeled armored vehicle, in the middle was a somewhat nondescript minibus, and at the end was a heavy truck.
The road in the town hadn't been cleaned for a long time. The row of cars drove over with billowing smoke and dust, looking very imposing.
The middle-aged man surnamed Sun's complexion suddenly changed.
There were at least dozens of people, and according to the military's style, they were all armed. If they wanted to attack his base, how could he stop them?
In his base, he had stored a lot of food, gasoline, and diesel. Ye County was originally an agricultural county, so there was a granary there. After doomsday, he had already occupied all the food in the granary.
Now, he was considering to open up new arable land and build Ye County into his own kingdom, but suddenly, the army arrived.
At that moment, the armored vehicles had arrived under the city wall. Zhu Changqing obviously saw the middle-aged man standing on the wall, so he shouted through a loudspeaker, "Open the gate!"
"Boss, what should we do?"
The man with the surname Sun took a deep breath. His city gate looked good, but in reality, it was easily broken by an armored vehicle. Naturally, it couldn't resist.
Boss Sun's mouth twitched, and then he said, "Open the gate, and quickly inform everyone to hide the food and gasoline!"
The gate opened, and Jiang Liushi passed through the wall. Originally, behind the wall was the place where Jiang Liushi had lived when he was a child, but now he saw that the ancestral house left by his grandparents had disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by a palace and a moat.
"This …"
Jiang Liushi was shocked. Building a wall was not a big deal, but a palace had been built?
After doomsday, even a survivor base with four or five hundred people could not build such a palace, right?
Moreover, his ancestral house had been demolished. In any case, Jiang Liushi felt a little uncomfortable.
Jiang Liushi saw that around the palace's moat were ordinary residents' houses. Because the palace occupied a large amount of land, those ordinary residents' houses were much narrower.
Some were brick houses, which were still tidy, and some were completely tents, dilapidated houses, and even houses made of plastic sheets.
Slums, ordinary residential areas, and magnificent palaces, the hierarchy was so distinct. Jiang Liushi had been to many places after doomsday, but he had never seen such a sharp contrast.
"Brother, have you noticed that the palace and the walls are a bit strange? The roots are made of large stones, and there is no cement …" Jiang Zhuying suddenly said.
Jiang Zhuying suddenly said. Hearing her words, Jiang Liushi also understood.
The stones were cut huge and neat. If there was no modern machinery, it was difficult to imagine that such a stacking could be completed. Unless … it was a special ability?
Jiang Liushi thought of this possibility. If there was a special ability, it was possible to complete the construction of such a palace.
However, his palace was so magnificent, but there were still many poor people living in plastic sheeting houses, which really made Jiang Liushi feel a little uncomfortable.
Along the way, he saw a lot of starving residents. When they saw the arrival of the army, some of them were at a loss, some were excited, and some were scared. Jiang Liushi had originally thought that a group of refugees would rush to greet the army with joy.
"These people are really miserable … I'm afraid that many people have starved to death." Jiang Liushi naturally knew that Ye County was an agricultural county. After doomsday, there should be a lot of food reserves. However, it seemed that the people were still miserable.
The level gap was too serious, which was obviously deliberately created by the rulers here. In many cases, the desire for power would make people cruel. They would even deliberately create social hierarchy in order to highlight their own power.
