Chapter 625: Chapter 513, this is a living Bodhisattva_2 Chapter 625: Chapter 513, this is a living Bodhisattva_2 Through the radio, I could promote myself to the outside world.
Especially the incident of exchanging grain for gold.
It was not only in the cities where I set up stations, but also in other cities and countries–it had already spread.
They requested Wu Heng's side to exchange grain with them as well.
Doing something could add some reputation for myself.
At the same time, it could help more people survive.
“How did those who became heroes manage to do it?”
“They couldn't have really traveled everywhere, right?”
I pondered over everything once more.
Then I reopened the door and went downstairs.
Just as I approached the staircase, Andre Willow came up in a nightgown.
“Master, I've come to serve you in your bath.”
Wu Heng smiled, put his arm around the shoulders of the little fox girl, and headed toward the bathroom.
“Where is Mini?”
“She is reading comics with Robey and the others!”
The next day.
Wu Heng boarded the Phantom Train and headed to Yeko Kingdom's Netalee City.
As soon as I got off the train in the wilderness and approached the city walls, I sensed a tense atmosphere.
The city gates were heavily guarded, and there were hardly any people coming in or going out.
Wu Heng showed his association emblem and wasn't troubled.
Inside the city, the atmosphere was similarly oppressive.
There were no pedestrians on the streets, and large groups of guards were frequently shuttling through.
Along the way, I was questioned three or four times.
Without a carriage, I could only walk to the Mermaid Tavern.
The tavern was closed, and the underground Snake Badge Consortium had closed down as well.
This time, my intention was to exchange elixirs for special items.
Now it seemed that some trouble had occurred in the Yeko Kingdom.
Most of the shops in the city had already been closed.
Wu Heng found a weapon shop and walked straight in.
Inside the room, there was only the owner, who looked like he was about to close up shop.
“What do you need, sir? These are all that's left.” said the owner.
Wu Heng glanced around and asked, “Have you sold everything?”
“Uh…, these are the only items left currently.”
Wu Heng picked out a one-handed sword and a fine iron round shield, “I'll take these two.”
“Alright, that will be 375 silver coins in total. I'll wrap them up for you.” The owner began to take out burlap to wrap the weapons and shield together.
Wu Heng went over and asked, “Owner, I just came back. What's going on in this city?”
“Customer, don't inquire about it, go home quickly, and don't come out for trifles recently.” The owner immediately advised.
Wu Heng handed a few silver coins to the owner, “Share what you can, and don't worry about what you can't.”
The owner hesitated, then spoke softly, “There must have been trouble at the top, guards are arresting people everywhere.”
“Arresting who?”
“They're saying traitors.”
Wu Heng's expression narrowed ever so slightly and he nodded his head.
At that moment, some guards saw Wu Heng and came right in to investigate.
Wu Heng took out the emblem again and showed it to them.
The guards turned and left while also urging the owner to close up and to avoid trouble for himself.
Wu Heng picked up the weaponry he had bought and left the shop directly.
After leaving the city, I immediately returned to Gold and Silver Island.
Back at the Island Master's Manor.
Wu Heng handed the weapons he had purchased to 'Annette'.
Although they were not superb equipment, they were still suitable for her regular training.
I sat in the living room and waited for a while.
Mini came back from outside in a skeleton carriage.
She said, “Master, we didn't gather much intelligence at the Conch Tavern. They mentioned many fleets have canceled their plans to Netalee City. Aunt Millicent will keep an eye on the situation.”
It seems the intelligence hasn't been passed along yet.
The normal shipping routes are not short in time.
“Mhm, there might be some changes soon. None of you should leave the house for anything unimportant,” Wu Heng instructed.
“Yes, Master.” The maids nodded.
Wu Heng went back upstairs.
Opened the boundary door, heading to Zombie World.
Wu Heng stepped out of the room.
He then saw survivors, around the dormitory building and on the streetlights of the factory yard, hanging some red lanterns.
Qi Hancai came over and said, “Tomorrow is New Year's Day.”
“Yeah, time flies so fast,” Wu Heng remarked.
“Yes, so fast,” Qi Hancai echoed lightly and added, “Unconsciously, we've survived until now.”
“Don't always talk like that, things will get better and better in the future.”
Qi Hancai smiled, “Yes, I know.”
“By the way, for the New Year, I have a plan, and I need you to announce it to the outside.”
Qi Hancai's expression became solemn, “What plan, and who should I notify?”
“Let's talk inside.”
The two entered a room on the side, and Wu Heng shared his thoughts.
An apartment building.
A disheveled middle-aged woman sat on the floor, holding a young girl wrapped in a quilt in her arms.
“Mom, go on, don't mind me,” the girl murmured softly.
High fever, no medication, food and drink insufficient.
The current situation could only end in death.
The middle-aged woman still held on, softly saying, “It's okay, it's okay.”
“If only this were a dream, am I dreaming? Such a scary dream,” the girl mumbled with eyes half closed, half sleeping.
Gradually, she closed her eyes.
Tears fell drop by drop from the woman, who then picked up the girl and walked to the window.
The bone-chilling cold wind poured into the room; below were wandering zombies.
Just one step and she and her daughter would wake from this terrible nightmare.
“Mom is with you…”
She lifted her foot.
Sssss~!
The shrill sound of electricity crackled from the old, modified radio.
Then, a voice came through.
“This is the Xinfu City rescue team, wishing all survivors listening to the radio a happy new year.
Starting tomorrow, we will follow the orders of the 'King Yama' to provide all compatriots with food and medical supplies.
Please have all members of shelters hang or lay out red identification items at positions where they can receive supplies; we will be performing airdrops.
Once more, we will airdrop supplies at locations marked with red identifications.
May the new year bring everyone courage and strength to overcome the current difficulty.
'King Yama', Xinfu City rescue team.
Wishing everyone a happy new year and all the best!”
The woman who had half a foot outside the window suddenly turned to look at the radio.
When the second sentence was repeated.
She confirmed she hadn't misheard.
Xinfu City rescue team, coming to the province to drop supplies.
She lit a flame on the floor to boil water, feeding it to her daughter.
“Mom,” the daughter called out softly.
The woman, hugging her daughter, sobbed, “It's okay, it's okay, we don't have to die, we don't have to die.”
The same announcement.
In Xinfu City, Anhui City, and Enzhou City, it was also broadcast.
“This is the Xinfu City shelter, wishing everyone an early happy new year and will start providing food supplies tomorrow morning to shelters who can be led by the leader to collect them.
May the ringing of the spring bells bring everyone courage and strength, so that we can join hands and overcome the difficulties ahead of us. May each base remain strong and optimistic.
Believing in our collective efforts, we will indeed rebuild a beautiful homeland and welcome an even brighter future.
'King Yama', Xinfu City rescue team.
Wishing everyone a happy new year and all the best!”
Unlike the fixed-point air drops in the provincial capital.
In these three cities, zombies on the roads had almost been cleared.
They will provide food and medication at exchange points.
After both sides broadcast.
The inside of the radio station immediately erupted.
“Xinfu City, they're directly providing food this time, I said gold was just an excuse, they're really saving us.”
“That's not 'King Yama' at all, that's a living Bodhisattva.”
