Dawn of a New Era

v1 ~: Article 223: Blockade

After leaving the train station, Chen Shouyi went to the newsstand: "Give me a map of Dongxing!"

"Printing maps with ink is still the same as color printing maps. Ink is cheaper, five yuan a piece, color printing is more expensive, it costs one hundred. These maps are all in stock, and they are becoming less and less. What about collectibles ... "said the newspaper owner with a smile.

"Color-printed!" Chen Shouyi interrupted his long story and handed out a hundred yuan.

When he came out this time, he brought a lot of money with him, which was enough for him to spend these days.

He opened the map, carefully searched Dongning's route, then closed it and put it in his backpack.

"Master, can I ask you something?" Chen Shouyi asked the boss of the kiosk: "Do you know what's going on in Dongning?"

"Do you want to go to Dongning? I advise you not to go, you can't get in if you go."

...

A few minutes later, Chen Shouyi left the kiosk, his brows locked.

What the kiosk boss said was similar to the two sisters on the train, and the situation was even worse. Now the entire Dongning area is surrounded by the military blockade, but it seems that both sides have been in a weird calm for some reason.

He looked up at the grey sky, exhaled gently, and walked forward.

Dongxing is one of the eleven prefecture-level cities in Jiangnan Province. Before the change, the economic level had been in the middle and upper positions, but there were still few poor steam vehicles on the street. After walking for more than ten minutes, Chen Shouyi only saw one. .

However, Xu has not experienced the cause of the war. Compared with the sparsely populated city of Hedong, there are many more people here, and it is also more lively. Businesses can be seen on both sides of the street.

After asking a lot of passersby, Chen Shouyi finally found a bicycle dealer.

...

The setting sun was gradually tilting westward, and the clouds seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light.

A young man with a travel bag rides along the provincial highway with his back to the sunset.

On the patch of farmland on both sides of the road, the newly planted seedlings are already lush and vigorous, and there are chopsticks high. Many farmers, kneeling in the fields, clean up the weeds between the seedlings.

On the edge of the river not far ahead, huge windmills are lined up along the river bank. Under the breeze, the blades slowly rotate to draw the river water into the ditch, making people seem to be back in ancient times.

This youth is Chen Shouyi.

Starting from Dongxing City, he rode all the way fast, and has now reached the suburb of Qingyu District, Dongxing City, which is adjacent to Dongning City.

He stopped and took out the mineral water from his backpack. After unscrewing, he drank water and looked up at the sky.

Chen Shouyi's face was slightly dignified. Here he could already see a large number of sesame-sized military airships floating in the distance. Obviously, the owner of the kiosk was right.

After a short break, he put the water bottle back into his backpack pocket and continued to ride.

It only took a few minutes to ride.

He heard a "click" and a crisp sound, and the pedal seemed to be stuck by something, making it harder to step on it.

Chen Shouyi immediately got off the bike and looked at the chain that had been completely broken, looking ugly.

Damn, this quality is too bad!

After the change, the industrial production capacity dropped like falling water, and the corresponding industrial price soared several times or even ten times. This rough bike that was rough in work and not even polished did not cost him two. Thousands of dollars.

He didn't say anything about the price.

Chen Shouyi, who enjoys the treatment of martial arts, is not short of money, and the quality is still so poor.

How long has it been riding?

Even if he speeds up a bit and presses a little harder, it won't break the chain!

There is still a long way to go.

Chen Shouyi's irritable palm rested on the cushion.

"Hello!", The cushion and the spring inside bounced directly, and the entire spindle was bent.

Unfortunately, no matter how irritable it is, it doesn't help. After taking a few breaths, Chen Shouyi took the briefcase and sword hanging from the handlebar, put the bicycle on the roadside, and began to walk forward helplessly.

It was gradually getting dark, and the farmers in the field began to return one after another.

After no one left or right, Chen Shouyi immediately strode away.

Although it's just walking, you can take six or seven meters every step, which is not slower than riding a bicycle. It's not that you can't go any faster, just that it's too exhausting.

It soon became dark.

There are no street lights on the Provincial Road, and there is a dark area around it. Only a distant village can send a faint light.

"One kilometer ahead entered Dongning City" Chen Shouyi quickly passed under a traffic sign.

"Finally entering Dongning!" He looked dignified and continued on.

Ten minutes later, he looked all the way to this small town near Dongxing. It seemed to have been abandoned. There were no people on the street. The houses on both sides of the road were dark. There was no light at all. Ghost town.

Compared to the previously clean road, it looks quite messy and littered everywhere.

Scattered clothes, broken pots and pans, various bottles and cans, and sometimes even scattered sporadic bullet shells and blackened blood.

During the migration of the townspeople ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ these apparently had some conflicts.

Chen Shouyi was a little worried about the situation of Shell Girl. After opening the zipper, she took a look and found that she was still asleep, and then re-zipped it.

After walking a few kilometers, Chen Shouyi finally saw the lights in the distance.

This is a dungeon. The searchlights at the top of the dungeon kept sweeping around. A dozen soldiers were standing on both sides of the road. At the same time, the road was pulled up to the guardrail and the road was blocked.

When Chen Shouyi was approached, all the soldiers were immediately vigilant, they opened their insurance, and aimed at their guns.

"Somebody, no entry here."

Chen Shouyi raised his hands: "Do n’t get me wrong, I ’m not malicious. I ’m from Hedong. I have a military card and a security general consultant certificate from Hedong City Government. I have relatives in Dongning. Take it. "

Although Chen Shouyi already has the strength of a martial arts master, the certificate is still the original warrior, and even the big warrior Hedong City has no qualification to test, let alone a martial arts master.

When the soldier heard that his nervous expression was slightly relieved, the gun in his hand was still not relaxed, and he aimed tightly.

At the behest of an officer with the rank of second lieutenant, a dark soldier soon trot over.

Chen Shouyi found two documents out of his pocket.

After the soldier took it, he checked it carefully.

"The platoon leader, both documents are true, the other party is really the security general consultant of Hedong City."

The platoon leader immediately made a disarming gesture. All the soldiers immediately lowered their guns and said, "Sorry, the responsibility lies, but although your identity is OK, according to the notice above, anyone in Dongning is forbidden to enter. You still Please go back! "

PS: Today's thunderstorm, it seems that the line was interrupted, and the power was cut for a long time, only this.
