Era: My backyard is the garbage dump of the universe

Chapter 351 Digging a hole
"What's wrong with him?" asked Old Jiang in a low voice.

Nie Bingquan behind him also frowned.

The injured person was covered in blood, with not a single clean spot on his body. If nothing unexpected happened, he must have been chopped by someone, otherwise the injury would not be so serious.

"I don't know either. I just walked around the farmers' market, and... when I came back, my dad became like this." Chen Liping cried.

"Don't ask any more questions, just save him!" someone urged.

"He is beyond saving." Elder Jiang sighed, "Even if I take action, I am afraid I will be powerless to save him."

"You'd better send him to a big hospital in the city as soon as possible. Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope." Nie Bingquan followed up with another sentence.

After all, they don't have complete medical equipment here, and there are no ready-made trauma medicines and blood transfusion equipment. It is extremely difficult to save a dying person.

Another point.

They live in seclusion here.

The people you want to save are those you know.

They don't want to save other irrelevant people.

If they are rescued, this place will no longer be peaceful, and the safety of the children will be threatened.

Chen Liping guessed what Nie Bingquan and Jiang Lao were thinking, and after coming to her senses, she said, "I was introduced by Uncle Tao. He said you could definitely save my dad, so I asked the driver to bring him here right away."

"Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao, don't just stand there! Hurry up and beg your grandfather to save my dad." Chen Liping saw Ye Xiaoxiao hiding at the door of a tent not far away watching the fun, and she said another sentence while crying.

"I...I..." Ye Xiaoxiao hesitated to speak.

"Were you really introduced by Tao Guoqing?" Old Jiang was a little suspicious.

Nie Bingquan also frowned and looked at Chen Liping.

After all, they had already made three rules with Tao Guoqing. Unless this person had to be rescued by them, there was no way they would introduce him to the Huaishu Production Team.

"Really?" Chen Liping replied with an evasive look.

"Oh! Never mind." Old Jiang sighed, "Since Tao Guoqing introduced him, I will give him some face."

"Mute sister, go get my medicine box."

The mute girl quickly did as she was told.

After a moment, he brought the medicine box to Mr. Jiang.

Old Jiang took out a pair of scissors and cut open the clothes of the injured person on the stretcher. He wanted to check how many wounds there were on his body, but the next second he frowned: "Why is his body full of tattoos? Chen Liping, who is your father?"

Nie Bingquan also realized that something was wrong.

After all, if he is a good person, he wouldn't have so many tattoos on his body.

"I...I..." Before Chen Liping could answer, the dozen people behind him surrounded Jiang Lao and Nie Bingquan one by one. A burly man who was the leader even took out an iron rod.

"What do you want to do?" Old Jiang was not afraid at all.

Nie Bingquan didn't feel scared either, after all, everyone around him was from the Ye family.

"We don't want to do anything, we just hope you can save our boss quickly." The burly man pointed at Jiang Lao with an iron rod: "Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

"Really?" Old Jiang smiled.

Nie Bingquan also shook his head.

Before the burly guy realized what was happening, someone pointed a gun at him from behind. More than a dozen of his men were also controlled and dragged out to an open space nearby, where they were beaten and kicked.

Chen Liping was beaten so hard that she was trembling with fear.

Just discovered.

This Mr. Jiang is not a simple person.

No, Ye Xiaoxiao is not simple.

She simply couldn't afford to provoke him.

"Okay, stop beating them." Seeing that the man was about to be beaten to death, Jiang Lao stopped them immediately and turned to look at Chen Liping: "Tell me the truth, what does your father do?"

"He runs a coal yard in Lingcheng. All the coal yards there, big and small, are under his management." Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Chen Liping had to answer truthfully while crying.

"Oh!" Jiang Lao suddenly realized: "In other words, he is the leader of the gangsters from Lingcheng?"

Liu Qingsong, who was watching the fun from the outside, now understood why Chen Liping was reluctant to let Ye Xiaoxiao and Li Zhen ride in her car to the Dongfanghong Farmers' Market.

It turned out that it was because his father was a gang leader.

With this identity, if he were in his place, he would also be wary of the people around him. After all, gangsters live on the edge of a knife, and they cannot be without vigilance.

"Yes, my father is the leader of a gang." Chen Liping nodded in acknowledgement.

"So, if that's the case, you said that you were introduced by Tao Guoqing, but you lied to us?" Nie Bingquan asked.

"I...I..." Chen Liping stuttered and cried, "I don't mean anything else. I just want you to save my dad. Please don't ask anymore. If you ask again, he will die."

"What does death have to do with us?" Nie Bingquan asked, "Do you still want to cause trouble for us?"

"And...how did you know we were living in seclusion here?" Old Jiang asked coldly.

Their security work is already very good. If outsiders want to know their location, they must use extraordinary means.

So, he must ask clearly today.

"I...I..." Chen Liping stammered, not knowing how to answer.

"Hurry up and tell me." Elder Jiang shouted in a low voice, "Otherwise your father really can't be saved."

Chen Liping couldn't help but speak after wiping her tears. She said, "A fat man named Zhao told us that you were living in seclusion here. He said that with your medical skills, it would be no problem to save my father, so I had someone carry my father here."

"Where is this fat guy?" asked Mr. Jiang.

"Surname Zhao? Is he a member of the Zhao family?" Liu Qingsong asked in a low voice.

"I don't know. He told me so much and then left. If you don't believe me, you can ask Hu Kui." Chen Liping replied crying.

Hu Kui refers to a rough man.

But Liu Qingsong did not ask, but said to Jiang Lao: "Grandpa Jiang, please rescue Chen Liping's father first. Maybe we can get more useful information from him."

"Okay!" Old Jiang didn't waste any more words. He squatted down and started to treat Chen Liping's father, Chen Zhaolong, with Nie Bingquan.

Liu Qingsong was waiting on the side, helping to pass some things from time to time.

About ten minutes later, Chen Zhaolong woke up slowly. When he saw Chen Liping, whose eyes were swollen from crying, he was extremely anxious: "I told you to leave Dayu City as soon as possible, why did you stay here and send me to Elder Jiang for emergency treatment?"

"Dad...how could I watch you die?" Chen Liping cried.

"Do you think I can survive like this? Let me tell you, that Fatty Zhao smeared a deadly poison on me. Anyone who comes into contact with it will die, and there is no antidote." Chen Zhaolong started crying as he spoke, with despair in his eyes.

"What did you say?" After understanding the meaning of Chen Zhaolong's words, Old Jiang quickly reached out and took Nie Bingquan's pulse.

Nie Bingquan reached out and took Mr. Jiang's pulse.

After a moment, both of their faces turned ugly.

Among them, Elder Jiang murmured, "We are really poisoned, and this poison is very tricky."

"Don't talk, go find the antidote quickly." Nie Bingquan said.

"It's useless." Chen Zhaolong reminded weakly: "I already said there is no antidote. Even if you take the antidote, it will be useless."

"Who said it's useless?" After telling Xiao Nuomi not to run around, Liu Qingsong turned around and went to the temporary tent to get the antidote.

After a while, he brought two antidotes and handed them to Jiang Lao and Nie Bingquan: "This is the antidote given to me by the masked man. If you believe in me..."

The words are not finished yet.

Old Jiang grabbed the antidote and swallowed it.

Just kidding, if Liu Qingsong and the masked man can't be trusted, then there is no one else in this world that he can trust.

Seeing this, Nie Bingquan took the antidote without hesitation.

In just a moment, they both felt a warm current appearing in their abdomens, which then flowed to their limbs.

"Wow! This antidote is really potent." Nie Bingquan stretched out his hand to check his own pulse, and soon a look of joy appeared on his face: "Hahaha... the poison is gone."

"Well, the masked man's antidote is really powerful." Old Jiang stroked his beard and looked at Chen Zhaolong: "If you want to live, tell me honestly why Fatty Zhao wanted to harm us." "Because he is a member of the Zhao family!" Chen Zhaolong replied with a sad face: "It was because I didn't want to go along with Fatty Zhao that he asked someone to chop me up and then smeared poison on me to trick you."

"By the way, Fatty Zhao's poisoning of you was only a small part of his plan. He also wanted to take advantage of the Ye family's grief and go to Caoyu Commune to blow up the largest Black Stone Reservoir in Dayu City and flood the medicine market."

"What did you say?" Old Jiang widened his eyes.

"This damn Fatty Zhao!" Liu Qingsong clenched his fists in anger. He did not expect that the Zhao family would be so despicable as to be so despicable.

"Quick! Quick!" After coming to his senses, Old Jiang shouted to the Ye family members beside him, "Go and call Qingmei and ask her to send someone to stop the Zhao family from blowing up the Black Stone Reservoir."

"Yes!"

"Come on!"

The two members of the Ye family quickly turned around and ran away.

After thinking about it, Liu Qingsong took Xiao Nuomi, Yaomei and said goodbye to Mr. Jiang.

There was no way. The Ye family couldn’t get to the Black Stone Reservoir in the first place, so he had to take action.

"Liu Qingsong, wait a minute, you haven't given me the antidote my father gave me yet!" Chen Liping caught up with him at this time. In her hurry, she even lost one of her shoes.

Liu Qingsong glanced at Chen Liping before throwing the two antidote pills on the ground.

This is not him bullying others, but it is a tit-for-tat retaliation for Chen Liping's arrogance before.

"You!!!" Chen Liping stomped her feet in anger, but for the sake of her own life, she bent down to pick up the antidote, then quickly ran towards Chen Zhaolong.

……

After Liu Qingsong coaxed Xiao Nuomi and Yaomei to sleep, he entered the garbage dump of all worlds and immediately told the liquid robot in detail everything that had just happened.

The liquid robot listened quietly.

After understanding, he quickly turned on the tracking mirror: "The Black Stone Reservoir is two kilometers upstream from the Medicine Market. Your second sister went to the Medicine Market to buy mountain products today and hasn't returned yet. She also didn't go to the Dongfanghong Farmers Market. That person must be in the Medicine Market."

“So we just need to send Xiao Hei Kui to the Black Market Reservoir to check the situation.”

"Then hurry up." Liu Qingsong urged.

If the black market reservoir was blown up, my second sister would be in trouble.

"Okay! Okay!" The liquid robot quickly took out his mobile phone and contacted Xiao Heikui.

After a moment, the little black guy guarding Liu Lijuan in the tracking mirror was seen running towards the Heishi Reservoir.

Liu Qingsong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that there was no movement in the direction of the Heishi Reservoir.

Just in case, he put on a Taoist robe, took out his sword and whisk, changed his appearance, and went to the Black Stone Reservoir through the torn space.

Wow! The next second he appeared on the dam of the Black Market Reservoir.

Because it was night, the area around the Black Stone Reservoir was quiet, with only the faint sound of the breeze.

Seeing this, Liu Qingsong took out his invisibility cloak and put it on, then walked under a big tree and waited for Xiao Heikui.

A few minutes later, Xiao Heikui did not wait, but he found ripples on the surface of the Black Stone Reservoir, and then he saw several green vines emerging from the water.

After these vines emerged, the buds beneath the branches and leaves bloomed and began to absorb the moonlight.

After Liu Qingsong saw this scene clearly, he was completely shocked.

After all, this is the real world where he lives, not the garbage dump of the universe, nor any other dimension of the world.

And now he actually saw the green vines absorbing the moonlight, which was really too weird for him.

Just as he was about to enter the Black Stone Reservoir to study it carefully, Xiao Hei Kui appeared, ran over and rubbed his right leg.

At the same time, flashlights appeared in the east direction of the Black Stone Reservoir, and the voices of several people could be heard.

Liu Qingsong was afraid of alerting the enemy and exposing his identity, so he quickly asked Xiao Heikui to be quiet, then took out a telescope from his space backpack and looked in the direction of the flashlight.

There were a total of six people walking towards the dam of the Black Market Reservoir. Leading them was a fat man. He also saw the green vines absorbing the moonlight.

But strangely, the fat man did not feel scared, but became excited, with a greedy look in his eyes: "I never thought that the legend is true. There is actually a miracle drug in this black market reservoir."

"Boss, are we going to dive and dig them all out later?" asked a skinny young man behind him.

The other four also looked at the fat man.

"What the hell are you digging for? This is a magical medicine with spirituality. It will hide in the water. The only way we can get the magical medicine hiding inside is to blow up the Black Stone Reservoir." The fat man cursed angrily.

Liu Qingsong, who was hiding under a big tree, couldn't help but frown when he heard this.

I finally understood why the Zhao family went to so much trouble to blow up the Black Stone Reservoir. It turned out that it was all for the magic medicine.

If these people in front of him didn't blow up the Black Stone Reservoir, he wouldn't want to care about them anymore.

Because from Jin Yutou's mouth, he already knew that this miracle medicine was a big scam.

While he was thinking, he saw that the fat man and others had already arrived at the dam of the Black Stone Reservoir and had taken out explosives to blow up the dam. He came to his senses and took out blunt force weapons from his space backpack.

Xiao Heikui was also ready to fight at any time.

But what Liu Qingsong didn't expect was.

This hasn't started yet.

The green vines in the Black Stone Reservoir, which is also the magic medicine, suddenly emerged from the water under the dam, and entangled and bound the six fat men with lightning speed, then dragged them into the water and disappeared, leaving only a few bags of explosives on the dam.

Liu Qingsong was stunned when he saw this scene, and then he realized that this magical medicine was extraordinary. For ordinary people to pick it, it would be harder than climbing to the sky.

Just when he was trying to find a way to get into the water and see how much of the magic medicine there was under the water, there was a splash and the fat man emerged from the water in a panic, then quickly crawled towards the dam.

After climbing up the embankment.

The fat man didn't run away anymore.

Instead, he looked at the half green vine in his hand and laughed wildly: "Hahahaha... I finally got the magic medicine, this is really God's will!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the barking of many hunting dogs could be heard from the southeast, and many torches were lit.

Obviously, the noise made by the fat man just now disturbed the villagers living around the Heishi Reservoir.

This made the fat man panic, and he got up and ran towards the mountain path diagonally opposite.

After a moment, it disappeared into the night.

Liu Qingsong did not chase him, but took Xiao Heikui back to the garbage dump of all worlds.

The reason why he didn't chase him was obviously because he wanted to use the magic medicine in the fat man's hand to cheat the Zhao family.

As long as a few members of the Zhao family were killed or suffered from strange diseases like Jin Yutou, he believed that they would never think of seeking miracle medicine again.

……

Back at the garbage dump of all worlds, Liu Qingsong and the liquid robot studied the magic medicine for more than two hours before letting the guardian vine teleport Xiao Heikui to his second sister, which was in the medicine market.

Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Qingsong yawned and went back to the temporary greenhouse to sleep.

He slept until nine o'clock in the morning when Liu Chunhua called him and he got up to wash.

"Uncle, uncle... why did you get up just now?" Little Nuomi ran into the kitchen with her short legs. "You don't know, this morning I caught a lot of grasshoppers with my aunt. We strung them up on wire and roasted them. They were delicious. Do you want to eat some?"

"Really?" Liu Qingsong was a little confused.

It's so hot in this weather that even the ants have hidden themselves, so where do the grasshoppers come from?

"Of course it's true!" Little Nuomi stretched out her little hand and pulled Liu Qingsong out of the kitchen: "Look, my aunt and Little Naughty are roasting grasshoppers!"

Liu Qingsong looked over and saw that what Xiao Nuomi said was true. Yaomei, Xiao Taoqi, Jin Yutou, Pangdun, and Ye Qubing were really roasting grasshoppers and eating them. Even Ye Xiaoxiao joined in. His whole face changed instantly.

It’s not that he feels sick at the sight of eating grasshoppers.

But the sight of so many grasshoppers suddenly reminded him of the summer of 1979 when the Huaishu Production Team suffered not only a drought that occurred once in decades, but also a locust plague.

The reason why he and his youngest sister did not starve to death before he was reborn.

I survived by going out every day to catch locusts and bring them home to eat.

Thinking about these past events now, Liu Qingsong felt a tingling sensation on his back and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

The reason for this is that it is obvious that he, as someone who has experienced it, knows how terrible the locust plague is.
