Tongchuan, Zongtong City!

This big city, which is not very famous in the ordinary world, is only one of the nearly 100 big cities in Lingyuan, but now it is famous all over the world, and the three words of Zongtong City alone are enough to arouse the heat in the hearts of countless people.

In recent months, countless young and talented people have traveled from all over the world to take part in one of the most exciting feasts in the world.

They may be pretentious, they want to change their fate, they may even become famous, they may have all kinds of reasons, they are all gathered like moths to fire.

Everyone has a dream and wants to make it come true here.

Because here, it is a secret realm of Lingyuan that occurs once in tens or hundreds of years, and it is the first place of creation in the world!

However, on the other hand, a few days after the Lingyuan secret order reappeared in the vision, the Lingyuan Imperial Court issued a strict order, ordering the Zongtong City government and the barracks to work together to evacuate the entire Zongtong City within three months.

Here, it will turn into an empty city, leaving thousands of heroes to gather here and fight here, becoming the most cruel level before the opening of the Lingyuan Secret Realm. Here, all the ordinary people, including the government and the barracks, had to be evacuated in advance, because no force could affect this grand event. Even the strongest Lingyuan Dynasty is reluctant to interfere too much in this matter, and in addition to wasting national strength, it will offend too many forces in the world.

Therefore, in the first two or three months of the opening of the secret realm, Zongtong City will be completely turned into a whirlpool of meat grinding, there is no longer a king's law in the city, and there are no rules, everything is based on strength, the strong will always be strong, and the weak will die.

In the past two or three months, except for the qualified Junjie who can enter Zongtong City, no other forces and any strong people are allowed to interfere, and it is all up to the Junjie to divide the victory and defeat, life and death. Regardless of any means, regardless of coercion and cleverness, speak purely by their own abilities, the loser turns into dry bones in the corner of the wall, or a lump of rotten meat, the winner and the heroes stand together, and enter the spiritual origin secret realm full of creation together!

There are three big cities in a similar situation, Zongtong City in Tongchuan Prefecture in the east, Ding'an City in Long'an Prefecture in the north, Wugan City in Yazhou in the west, and Shude City in Xuzhou in the south.

When Liu Heng and his ship entered the territory of Tongchuan Prefecture, what they saw was a picture of chaos.

Zongtong City, located in Tongchuan Prefecture, will urgently evacuate tens of millions of people in just two or three months, even if the government has a degree of assistance, and the surrounding cities will also help resettle civilians, it is still tantamount to a natural and man-made disaster.

Everywhere there are displaced people, homeless people.

The common people who are eligible to enter the surrounding cities are the luckiest, the refugees who are crowded under the walls of these big cities are still supported by the government, and the most pitiful are the poor people who can't even squeeze into the refugee land outside the city walls.

No matter how much the surrounding cities try their best to help, the capacity to accommodate is also limited after all, and suddenly they have to contain millions of displaced people, and they really can't catch it.

Every day, people eat horses and chew, eat and wear, which is a headache. The government of the surrounding big cities not only opened the granary, but also called on the big families in the city to accumulate virtue and do good deeds and help the people. In this way, millions of displaced people suddenly poured into every big city, prices soared, and the people in the city also complained. And the soaring prices have emptied the savings of most of the displaced people, so that they have no choice but to try their best to fill their stomachs.

In order to survive, people can be shameless, they can take risks, and they can ignore the rules to grab a living. As a result, the situation in these big cities has become worse day by day, bandits and robbers are rampant, and murder and arson have become almost commonplace, and they have been repeatedly banned.

Countless homeless people are like locusts, looking around for something to eat, and when they are very hungry, how can they care whether this thing is wild or planted in the field?

However, the government must not only be tired of dealing with the frequent disasters in various places and providing relief to the victims, but also have to be wary of the many heroes who have come from all over the world. It is their responsibility to stop these heroes, and they will never be allowed to rush to Zongtong City in advance, so as not to add to the chaos. However, most of these heroes are restless masters, and it is not easy to restrain them for a while.

One thing after another, they have all rushed to one place, and no matter how much the government does anything, it will have to make a fuss.

Chaos came first.

Only after entering the territory of Tongchuan Prefecture, Liu Heng and the others felt as if they had suddenly entered another world.

On the banks of the Beizhu River, it is common to see hungry victims looking for food on the bank, and from time to time you can see someone suddenly plunging into the river. Whether these people are trying to kill themselves or trying to catch the delicious fish and shrimp in the river, the result is actually the same.

This is a cold winter, the river is cold to the bone, the water waves are urgent, and there are water goblins and other fierce creatures entrenched, how can mortals jump into it and die?

Ordinary mortals who are sturdy do not dare to enter the river easily, let alone these hungry people, but those who choose to enter the river are still seen repeatedly. The most terrible thing is the hungry people on the shore, who are indifferent when they see others throwing themselves into the river, and only look at them with indifferent and numb eyes, which makes people feel cold all over their bodies when they see them.

There were also some hungry people, whose eyes were as green as hungry wolves, staring at the fishing boats in the river, and as soon as they saw which fishing boat was about to dock, they immediately swarmed up. Liu Heng and the others saw with their own eyes that a fishing boat had only been docked for a moment, and the screams, cries and roars were loud, and when the riots stopped and the hungry people scattered, even the fishing boat was dismantled, leaving only a puddle of shocking blood, but not even the bones were left.

Other hungry people, as soon as they saw a boat passing by on the river, would drag their children and daughters and kowtow again and again, until they smashed their heads. or even flattering and begging, crying and begging, telling of their misery, just so that they could throw a few bites of food when they met a kind person.

Some of the people who sailed on the boat were especially hateful, and instead of feeling compassion when they saw this, they took advantage of it to have fun. They often use food as a temptation to force the hungry to do all kinds of shameless acts, or make countless hungry people fight frantically, giving only one bite to the winner.

A mouthful of food is enough to trigger a brawl among dozens or hundreds of hungry people, and in the end there are dead and injured on the ground, and in many cases there is no winner.

But even so, it was very merciful, and some people took pleasure in it, and in the end some hungry people struggled to fulfill their strange demands, only to watch the food that should have been given to them fall into the river not far away, and the despair was really painful.

These hungry people often choose to throw themselves into the river, are drowned by the waves, and never appear again.

It wasn't until this kind of picture appeared that the people on the ship shouted excitedly and cheered.

"What kind of world is this?" Hu Yushu's lips turned white, and there was only confusion and panic in his eyes, "Should it be so cruel just to make way for the Lingyuan Secret Realm?"

He Fuyi, who was peaceful by nature, was full of anger in her eyes, "These people, have people's hearts been eaten by dogs? Seeing the miserable scene in the world, not only do they have no kindness, but they take pleasure in it, and they are simply unworthy of being human!"

And Liu Heng and Yan Guiyan were very calm, and they had also seen the tragic scenes, but they were unmoved.

"Senior sister, those who take pleasure in this are hateful, but are the hungry people who plundered the fishing boats in front of them worthy of pity?

Liu Heng asked rhetorically, making He Fuyi stunned, and looked at him suddenly, as if he felt that even Liu Heng had suddenly become strange, and he didn't know him at all, "You, how can you say such a thing?"

Hu Yushu was also surprised, but at this time, Yan Guiyan quite agreed, "Senior Sister and Sister Hu, believe it or not, if I didn't stop you just now and let you do good on the shore, what would be the result?"

The two were puzzled, and they didn't know why he suddenly mentioned this matter, Yan Guiyan had already asked himself and answered: "Once we land, we will be like those fishing boats, if you still want to do good, it will be even worse than that." The first is that if we are strong enough, we will have to kill countless victims to escape, and the second is that if we are a little soft-hearted, or if we are not strong enough, then the entire ship, including our lives, will be overwhelmed by these countless victims. ”

His voice was flat, but his words were creepy, and the chill of his intuition soared.

However, after thinking about it carefully, He Fuyi and Hu Yushu couldn't say anything to refute, because they could also figure out that what Yan Guiyan was talking about was what would happen in reality.

"But, but these disaster victims, really don't deserve sympathy?" He Fuyi was stunned, desperately unable to figure out the reason, and her expression was even more confused, "So, who should we blame? Who is the culprit?"

"No one is to blame, no one is at fault. ”

Liu Heng's eyes still inevitably flashed a complicated look, and he sighed and said: "If the secret realm is not opened, or even if there is no secret realm, there will be no creation, and the hope of countless people to change their lives against the sky has been cut off." If the secret realm is opened, if you don't fight and fight hard, there will be no such a good opportunity in this life. If the imperial court does not evacuate the people, after the secret realm is opened, I am afraid that none of the four cities will survive, and it will only be worse than now. If you don't work hard for a bite to eat, then there is no hope at all, and it is a dead end. If you don't make fun of the victims, but do good deeds with compassion, then you will die yourself. So, who's wrong?"

Who's wrong?

It seems to be all wrong, and it seems to be all right.

The four of them fell silent in unison.

After a long time, Yan Guiyan smiled and said: "Forget it, the world is like this, if you force yourself to seek answers, I'm afraid that even the saints won't be able to answer, let's stop worrying about ourselves, let's just increase our experience." ”

He Fuyi frowned, "No matter who is right or wrong, I still feel uneasy when I see all beings suffering like this, is there no way to make things better than now?"

She looked at Liu Heng, Liu Heng thought about it seriously, "Maybe the court and the government will be more thoughtful, and the situation can be better." ”

Yan Guiyan disagreed, "First of all, it is not enough to be the emperor, otherwise a holy decree will come down, forcing those rich families and wealthy families in various cities to help more, or even give some rewards, and mobilize civil forces to participate, it will always be more thoughtful than now." Or even if they are more directly stronger, not afraid of offending people, and dealt with them strictly, that is, the heroes of the Quartet enter the city, and dare to act recklessly? From the root, it can ensure that the people of the four cities will not have to suffer from running around and be displaced, and there will be no more such miserable scenes in the world. ”

Inspired by the two, He Fuyi also had inspiration, "If you inspire the rich and wealthy families and even the people of other cities, and let them work together and help each other, it should also be effective." ”

She looked at the two of them desperately, hoping to get their approval, but who expected them to both look at her with strange expressions.

Liu Heng couldn't directly say that her thoughts were very naïve and ideal, and she also felt that human nature was good, so she said very tactfully: "Human nature is to be for oneself first, and then to be others." There is nothing wrong with Senior Sister's idea, but it has to be assisted by some other methods to mobilize people's motivation. For example, what Yan Guiyan said is that the rewards and punishments are clear, and the two-pronged approach will naturally be effective. ”

Yan Guiyan said: "The key is still in the court and the government, they are useless, and the civil power naturally does not have much effect, if you want me to say, the set of rewards and punishments is clear, and it should be used on the heads of officials and officers and soldiers first." ”

Liu Heng pondered, "Pressure alone is sometimes not a good thing, and more people who are good at overall planning and scheduling should be promoted, so that the limited force can be better arranged and can also play a greater role." ”

"I only talk about the government and the opposition, but don't forget the protagonists this time, those heroes who came from all over the world. ”

The more Yan Guiyan spoke, the more interested he became, and he was already thinking, "If I were the emperor, I would directly mobilize all my forces to collect most of the secret orders, force these heroes to work for me, and find ways to settle the displaced people." Those who do well are rewarded with secret orders or quotas, and those who do not do well are directly removed from the competition, and the same means of clear rewards and punishments can be applied. ”

"Unrealistic. After Liu Heng pondered, he immediately vetoed, "How can the world tolerate such a willful and domineering emperor?

"What if this emperor can be the only one in the world? Who would dare to disrespect his orders? At that time, words are the law, and anyone has to obey them obediently, where can there be any offense?"

Yan Guiyan's eyebrows were slightly raised, and he seemed to just raise the bar.

......

When the two discussed, they had long forgotten the reason that had sparked the discussion, and they had forgotten that there were other people around them.

He Fuyi listened ignorantly, although the more she listened, the more she felt that she couldn't understand the thoughts of the two, but she faintly understood a little. These two people did not have the slightest sympathy and pity at all, and they also put aside the so-called kindness of the world, and all they talked about and thought were actually the laws and systems of control, and they took this as the solution.

In other words, these two people don't believe in the innate goodness of human nature that they admire!

For a moment, she only felt confused.

I don't know if I'm wrong or if they're wrong.

When she lost her mind and the more she discussed with the two, the more focused she became, Lou Chuan had unconsciously come to the first Xiongcheng in Tongchuan Prefecture, under the city of Heqing.

When the boat arrived here, some officers and soldiers set up checkpoints on the river, blocking the waterway and land route that continued to Zongtong City, and no one was allowed to pass. As a last resort, they could only stop under Heqing City, Hu Yushu was busy carrying goods, and then the four of them decided to go to the city to inquire about the specific situation, and also the exact time when the card was opened. (To be continued.) )
