    But what are the new rules?  At present, there seems to be only one, whoever has the biggest fist has the final say.  Regarding this principle, Hong Tao felt that he did not understand it very thoroughly, so he was not qualified to explain it to others.  Besides, it's just such a little thing, if you don't understand it by the age of 6 or 7, then living is useless.

    This group should be the children of refugees, and a large part of them were born after the outbreak of the zombie disease.  They have never seen the previous world at all, and they have been used to this kind of life of searching for supplies since they were sensible.

    Looting zombie corpses is just to search for useful materials on it.  In fact, every zombie may be a small mobile treasure house. For example, the cigarettes in the pockets of clothes, even if they have been rubbed into shredded tobacco, are still good things.

    If you can find candy and packaged medicine, or the battery in your mobile phone, you can exchange it for shopping vouchers.  Even if you only have a pair of reading glasses or short-sighted glasses, you can exchange for a few full meals by chance.

    "Return Nima's redemption It's really a weasel that lays mice, one nest is worse than one nest. The town so close has not been cleaned up for ten years, what are you doing all day long!" When the horse slowly walked out of the ruins of the city, Hong Tao looked back  Looking at it, I silently lowered the ruler here to a lower level in my heart.

    Judging from the mobile phone map, this town is only 20 kilometers away from Huocheng, and only more than 60 kilometers away from Yining, so it must be considered a very core area.  But ten years later, it is really incomprehensible that zombies can still be found in a corner of a high-rise building.

    Around noon, a larger city appeared at the end of the road, and at the same time, there were gradually more pedestrians on the road.  There were people on foot, some on bikes, and some on horseback. They were dressed similarly, and when they met each other's eyes, they didn't seem too cannibalistic or too hollow. This made Hong Tao feel more at ease.

    It seems that the life of refugees here should be passable, why do you say that, you can roughly judge it just by looking at people's eyes.  Desperate people, people who are always hungry, look at people differently.  This is also what Hong Tao has learned and learned from running around for several years.

    Not far from the right side of the road, a steaming train was slowly passing by, and the carriage was full of coal.  The coal mining industry is a labor-intensive industry, especially when there is a lack of mechanized equipment, it can only rely on people to plan and carry baskets from the mine.  It is certain that it will be hard and tiring, but it is also certain that it can support many refugees.

    "It's good enough for most people to have jobs." Seeing the state of refugees near Huocheng, Hong Tao had some positive comments on the management ability of the Redeemer.

    After passing Huocheng, there were guards on the road to check. Hong Tao said that he sent mutton to the Yining base.

    Hong Tao didn't talk much with the sentry. He is a herdsman of an ethnic minority and he can't speak Chinese well, so it's not appropriate to ask questions suddenly.  In fact, even if he asks, he can't find out why. It's too strange to have never been here. It's best to talk less and watch more.

    After walking through Huocheng for another 4 hours, I finally found the starting point of the coal train along the way.  There is actually a small coal mine here, and many people are pushing carts out from the ravine in the north, piling the black coal on the side of the railway, and another group of people will load the carts.

    From here, riding on a horse without binoculars, you can see a larger urban area to the east with more tall buildings.  But further east there is a deep ditch, and there seems to be a tall mound on the other side of the ditch.

    No matter how you look at this thing, Hong Tao looks familiar. Back then, the Revival Alliance also dug similar trenches on the sides of the Fourth Ring Road, Third Ring Road, and Second Ring Road, but the scale was not as large as here.

    Sure enough, the sentinel signaled him not to go further east, but to turn south, cross the bridge and then head east.  While crossing the bridge, Hong Tao found another clue. A section of the river-crossing bridge had collapsed, and it was connected by logs and steel frames. It seemed that only pedestrians and light vehicles could pass through.

    And there was a very wide crack from the bridge head to the ditch. At this moment, Hong Tao understood a little bit. It was a good thing that the ditch was not dug by people, and it was probably cracked by the earthquake.  The location is just to the west of Yining City, extending north to the foot of the mountain and connecting to the Yili River to the south, forming a natural moat.

    Yining, a city located on the north bank of the Yili River, Hong Tao drove here in the old world, and he was very impressed.  There is a clear difference between this place and the inland cities and most cities in Xinjiang Province. It is not the urban planning and construction, nor the scenery, but the people.

    There are a large number of ethnic minorities in Yining. If you walk in the city without looking at the Chinese signs, you will feel like you are in a city in Central Asia or even the Russian Far East. The streets are full of strong women who are dressed like Russian aunts and look the same.  .

    Of course, there are also beautiful girls full of exotic customs, most of them are Kazakhs, Sikhs, Uzbeks and Russians, but there are not many Uighurs.

    theBut this time Hong Tao was not allowed to enter the city. With the Yili River as the boundary, the main base of the Redeemer is on the north side of the river, and the refugee settlement is on the south bank of the river.  Just at the southern end of the bridge across the river.

    Following the sentinels to enter from the west of the settlement, the inspection was also very strict. Most of the roads leading to the outside world were blocked, barbed wire was pulled, and tall wooden towers were built.  After walking for more than one kilometer, more than half of the houses along the way collapsed or cracked. Obviously, the earthquake in the past few years was not low.

    But as long as it is a relatively complete house, people will live in it, but the doors and windows are sealed by various building materials, and even reinforced with steel pipes and iron bars. There are almost no glass windows, more like small houses.  fortress.  There are not many pedestrians on the street, and it seems a little deserted. It is hard to believe that there are more than 20,000 people living here.

    But the situation is completely different when you go to the main street facing the bridge. Although the houses on both sides of the street are not very new, they are much more regular. The doors and windows are relatively normal, and there are more or less pieces of glass, and most of them have signs or guises.  , full of shops.

    Now Hong Tao is in trouble, he is here, but is the owner of the tea stall here? If so, where should he find him?  This street is about one kilometer, and the half kilometer near the south end of the bridge is full of shops, so you can't ask people one by one.  What if the guy didn't come, or wasn't on the street?

    "Look for someone, the tea seller meat, give him!" So he could only slightly harass the sentinel who led the way.

    "What about selling tea? Just send it directly to the base!" The sentinel was young but had a big temper. He stood guard well, but he walked with Hong Tao all afternoon for nothing. There was no benefit, and he must be angry.

    "**horse**delicious! The tea seller, give him the meat, and he'll give me the money!"

    Seeing that stinky face like a dead father, Hong Tao knew what was going on.  If you want the horse to run, you have to eat grass. You can¡¯t give mutton and horse intestines, but there is extra cheese in the sheepskin pocket. It¡¯s not too rude to have a piece of meaning.

    "Wait, don't walk around, I'll ask!" As the saying goes, money can turn ghosts around. This piece of cheese seems to be very good.  Muta trotted away.

    Ten minutes later, Hong Tao got his wish and found the owner of the tea stall.  In fact, he didn't need that piece of cheese, as long as he walked a few tens of meters further south, he could see the tea stall against the wall and that fat face.

    "Hey, brother, mutton!" The owner of the tea stall was fixing the shed to the wall. Hong Tao probably scanned it, and found that except for the copper teapot, the tables, chairs and benches are not the Kuitun set. Although they are not new, they should have been bought here.

    "Hiyou're here! Sit down quickly, have a big cup, add more dried fruit and honey!" This voice almost scared the owner of the tea stall off the ladder. He turned his head and saw Hong Tao, and then saw two  He immediately knew who was coming, he smiled like a kiss, and he greeted him with enthusiasm, all put honey!

    "Oh, I have a dispensation from the big nun here, and he is here to deliver mutton!"

    For the sentinel next to him, the owner of the tea stand was not so enthusiastic. He didn't even show any politeness, and took out a small red notebook from his pocket and handed it over.  Not to mention, this little notebook is easier to use than Hong Tao's cheese, the sentinel just glanced at it and didn't even take it, then turned around and rode away on the bicycle without looking back.
