Dawn of a New Era: Part 223: Blocking
After leaving the train station, Chen Shouyi walked to the newsstand: "Give me a map of Dongxing City!"
"The map is printed with ink, or the old color-printed map. The ink is cheaper, five yuan a piece, and color printing is more expensive, it costs one hundred. These maps are all stocks of the past, and now they are getting less and less. It is estimated that it can be used as a collection..." The newspaper owner said with a smile.
"Color-printed!" Chen Shouyi interrupted his tirade and handed out a one hundred yuan.
When he came out this time, he brought a lot of money with him, enough for him to spend these days.
He opened the map, carefully found the route to Dongning, then closed it and put it in his backpack.
"Master, may I ask you something?" Chen Shouyi asked the newsstand boss: "Do you know what's going on in Dongning?"
"Do you want to go to Dongning? I advise you not to go, and you can't get in."
……
A few minutes later, Chen Shouyi left the newsstand, frowning.
What the newsstand boss said is similar to that of the two sisters on the train, and the situation is even worse. Now the entire Dongning area is surrounded by military blockades, but it seems that out of some concern, both sides have been in a weird calm.
He raised his head and glanced at the gray sky, let out a breath, and walked forward.
Dongxing City is one of the eleven prefecture-level cities in Jiangnan Province. Before the change, the economic level has always been in the upper middle position, but there are still few steam vehicles on the street. After ten minutes of walking, Chen Shouyi only watched. To one.
However, Xu has not experienced the cause of the war. Compared with the sparsely visible downtown of Hedong City, there are a lot more people here, and it is also a lot more lively. You can see business shops everywhere on both sides of the street.
After asking many passers-by, Chen Shouyi finally found a dealership selling bicycles.
……
The setting sun gradually slanted to the west, and the clouds seemed to be covered with golden light.
A young man with a travel bag turned his back to the setting sun and rode fast along the provincial highway.
In the fields on both sides of the road, the newly planted seedlings are already lush, growing vigorously, and as high as chopsticks, many farmers kneel in the fields, cleaning the weeds in the seedlings.
Not far in front of the river, huge windmills lined up along the river bank. Under the light breeze, the blades slowly turned, drawing the river water into the ditch, making people feel like they are back in ancient times.
This young man is Chen Shouyi.
Starting from Dongxing City, he rode fast all the way, and now he has reached the outskirts of Qingyu District, Dongxing City, which is adjacent to Dongning City.
He stopped and took out the mineral water from his backpack. After unscrewing it, he drank the water while looking up to the sky.
Chen Shouyi's face was slightly solemn. Here he could already see a large number of sesame-sized military airships suspended in the distance. Obviously, the newsstand owner was right. The entire Dongning was blocked by the army.
After a short break, he put the mineral water bottle in the backpack pocket again and continued riding.
However, it took only a few minutes to ride.
He heard a "crack" sound, and the pedal seemed to be stuck out by something, making it difficult to step on it.
Chen Shouyi immediately got off the bicycle and looked ugly at the chain that had been completely broken.
Damn, this quality is too bad!
After the mutation, the industrial production capacity dropped like water, and the corresponding industrial price also soared several times or even ten times. Just this awkward bicycle with rough workmanship and not even polished was spent. Cost him more than two thousand yuan.
He doesn't say anything about the price.
Chen Shouyi, who enjoys the treatment of a great warrior, is not a person short of money, and the quality is still so poor.
How long has it been riding?
Even if he speeds up a little bit, stepping on a little harder, it won’t break the chain!
There is still a long way to go.
Chen Shouyi's irritable palm was on the cushion.
With a sound of "Boom!", the seat cushion and the spring inside bounced directly out, and the entire main shaft bends.
Unfortunately, no matter how irritable, it will not help. After a few breaths, Chen Shouyi took the briefcase and sword hung on the handlebar, put the bicycle on the side of the road, and reluctantly began to walk forward.
The sky is getting dark, and the farmers in the fields begin to return one after another.
When there was no one left, Chen Shouyi strode immediately.
Although it's only walking, I can take six or seven meters at every step, and it's not slower than riding a bicycle. It's not that it can't be faster. It's just that it consumes too much energy.
The sky soon got dark.
There are no street lights on the provincial road, and the surrounding area is dark. Only the villages in the distance can emit a faint light.
"One kilometer ahead and enter Dongning City" Chen Shouyi quickly passed by under a traffic sign.
"Finally entering Dongning!" He looked solemn and continued on his way.
Ten minutes later, he looked all the way at this small town close to Dongxing. It seemed to have been abandoned. There was no one on the street, and the houses on both sides of the road were dark, without the slightest lights, and it was quiet. It feels like a ghost town.
Compared with the previous clean road, this place is quite messy, with **** everywhere.
Scattered clothes, broken pots and pans, various bottles and jars, and sometimes even scattered bullet shells and blackened bloodstains.
During the migration of the townspeople~IndoMTL.com~, there have obviously been some conflicts.
Chen Shouyi was a little worried about the seashell girl. After opening the zipper, she took a look and found that she was still asleep, so she closed the zipper again.
After walking a few kilometers, Chen Shouyi finally saw the light in the distance.
This is a tower located on the top of the tower. Searchlights on the top of the tower are constantly sweeping around. A dozen soldiers are standing on both sides of the road. At the same time, the road is pulled up on a guard fence and the road has been blocked.
Aware that Chen Shouyi was approaching, all the soldiers suddenly became vigilant, pulled off the insurance, and pointed their guns at them.
"Who is forbidden to enter here."
Chen Shouyi raised his hands: "Don’t get me wrong, I have no bad intentions. I am from Hedong. I have a martial artist certificate and a Hedong city government security chief consultant certificate. I have relatives in Dongning. This time I entered Dongning. I want to bring my relatives over."
Although Chen Shouyi already has the strength of a martial artist, his credentials are still the original martial artist, and even the great martial artist Hedong City is not qualified for the assessment, let alone a martial artist.
The soldier's nervous expression suddenly eased when he heard the words, but the gun in his hand still did not relax, and he aimed tightly.
At the sign of a second lieutenant officer, a dark soldier soon trot over.
Chen Shouyi took out two documents from his pocket.
After the soldier took it, he checked it carefully.
"The platoon leader, the two certificates are true, and the other party is really the chief security advisor of Hedong City."
The platoon leader immediately made a gesture of disarming upon hearing this, and all the soldiers immediately put down their guns and said: "I'm sorry, where is your duty, but although your identity is okay, according to the above notice, Dongning is now forbidden to enter. , Please go back!"
PS: There was a thunderstorm today. It seemed that the line was interrupted and the power went out for a long time. This is the only thing.
