The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 281 The Past of Meishan Village
The cave is very humid, and water is seeping down from the top of the cave.

Yang Mingze and others didn't care about these and just sat down on the rocks in the cave.

"Arya, go make a fire."

Yang Mingze shouted.

Yang Erya didn't dare to resist. She endured the pain in her ankle and picked up some wet wood nearby.

Then he took out a red stone from his bag.

It is a fire-attributed supernatural stone.

She scraped off a little bit of the supernatural stone powder, then hit the stone hard with her dagger, and sparks exploded immediately.

With a whoosh, the fire-attributed supernatural stone powder was instantly ignited, and the high temperature instantly rose. The moisture in the wet wood was evaporated instantly and it was directly ignited.

Several people felt comforted as they watched the flames light up.

They each found some dried meat from their bags, roasted it over the fire, and then began to eat it ravenously.

While eating, we discussed what happened today.

"Damn it, Yang Mei, this cow, actually found such a powerful man with super powers!" Yang Kai said angrily.

Yang Mingze looked at Toad and the others and asked, "Tell me what's going on at Yunquan Temple."

Toad said quickly: "We were far away at the time, but we saw the village chief walking out of the temple gate with blood all over his body. Then the others surrounded him and threatened the man to let go of the village chief."

"That person just snapped his fingers, and then everyone's brains suddenly exploded and they all died."

"Yeah, it's fucking scary. I've never seen such a weird way of attack."

"Damn it, he must be a psychic!"

"Yes, otherwise why would they attack the brain?"

"Who on earth is this guy? Yang Mei actually fawned over this guy. Damn it, she even brought him to Meishan."

"Do you think Li Zhiqiang was killed by this adulterous couple?"

"Do I even need to ask? Li Zhiqiang is a well-known coward. When Yangmei got married, many people made trouble in the bridal chamber. Someone took the opportunity to touch his wife's thigh, but he didn't dare to say a word. It was only when Yangmei, the cow, got mad that the farce ended."

As they were discussing, Yang Mingze, Yang Kai and Yang Erya couldn't help but gasp.

Fortunately, they had pretended well and did not dare to act unruly in front of Yangmei's new man. Otherwise, it would not be the village chief and his men whose heads would explode, but the three of them.

Yang Erya recalled the new man Yang Mei had found. At that time, he looked calm and didn't say a word, so she thought he was an easy man to control.

I didn't expect it to be so cruel...

She felt both fear and jealousy.

Why do all the good things get monopolized by that slut Yangmei?

"Brother Ze, what should we do now? This guy is so powerful that even the village chief and his men can't deal with him. I'm afraid the village chief and his men have all been killed now." Yang Kai couldn't help but complain and was very pessimistic about the situation in Yunquan Temple that year.

The round-faced young man named Toad said, "How about we go to Jieshi Academy?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Kai immediately scolded him: "Are you fucking stupid? Jieshi Academy has always been at odds with the village chief. Li Xiangyang was even almost beaten to death by the village chief. The two sides have a blood feud. Can they accept us?"

"Toad, you're out of your mind. Yang Mei's father, Yang Youwei, is in Jieshi Academy. Yang Mei and that man will go to Jieshi Academy sooner or later. Isn't going there a way to seek death?"

Toad disagreed and said, "Yangmei and that person have never seen the three of us. We went to Jieshi Academy, and they may not know us."

"Besides, we were just small fry in the past, so you can't blame us for what the village chief and his men did."

The two people beside Toad couldn't help but ponder after hearing what Toad said, and felt that what Toad said made some sense.

Now on Meishan Mountain, the only place where they can stay is the Jieshi Academy.

I heard that there are some scattered gathering places for people with special abilities in other places in Meishan.

But they were all people who had escaped to the mountain from outside, and it was difficult for them to protect themselves. There was no point in them going there, and they might even have to become bodyguards for those people.

However, Yang Zeming and the other two looked a little unhappy.

Yangmei and that person had never seen the three Toads, but they had seen them.

In order to cooperate with Li Guoxiang, Yang Erya lied that Yang Youwei was in Yunquan Temple.

If the three of them meet that man again, given the way he does things, will he be able to keep them here?
His face darkened slightly, and he couldn't help thinking about how to keep the three Toads.

The six of them together were able to protect themselves in this forest filled with mutant beasts.

If the three Toads ran away and left them alone, the risk factor would increase greatly.

For a moment, his eyes flickered.

……

Jieshi Academy, located two-thirds of the Meishan plank road, is one of the few scenic spots in Meishan.

The entire academy is not big, far less spacious than Yunquan Temple.

The Jieshi Academy today has changed a lot from what it was before the flood.

The outside of the academy is no longer spotless, but covered with moss.

Vines such as ivy on the courtyard wall were also cleared away.

A lot of the nearby forests have also been cut down, and the overall look is a bit bare.

The courtyard is no longer as spacious as before, and many houses have been added.

At this time, in the hall of the academy, a tall young man in his twenties was sitting there, holding a ruler in his hand, and carefully observing the intricate patterns on the ruler.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. The young man looked up and saw a beautifully dressed girl walking in.

The girl is about 1.6 meters tall, with fair skin and sweet looks.

She ran to the young man and said coquettishly, "Brother Xiangyang, you are studying this ruler again."

Li Xiangyang nodded and said, "Well, if it weren't for this ruler, I would have died in the hands of Li Kuirong and his men. I have to find a way to dig out the secret of this ruler."

"Rongrong, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"It's no big deal. It's just that old man with the broken arm who is yelling about wanting to go out and find his wife. In my opinion, why should this old lunatic keep him? Just let him go." Zhang Rongrong couldn't help but complain.

Li Xiangyang shook his head: "Uncle Youwei is a speed-type psychic. We have too few psychics here. He and Li Kuirong have a big grudge, so he is our natural ally. If we keep him, we will have more power to resist Yunquan Temple."

"But he goes to see his wife every other day and won't listen to any persuasion. Last time he sneaked out, he almost attracted people from Yunquan Temple, causing us to lose several people."

Li Xiangyang thought for a moment and said, "How's the situation with Lantern Persimmon?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Rongrong quickly said, "I have someone keeping an eye on it. I think it will be ripe in the next two days. Recently, many mutant beasts have appeared over there, and they are all eyeing this mutant fruit."

Li Xiangyang's expression suddenly became more serious, and he reminded: "There are many fruits in Yangshan, but mutant fruits are not that common. This mutant lantern persimmon is very important to us. If we get it, maybe we can help one of our companions awaken superpowers."

"Since Uncle Youwei insists on going out, let's go pick this lantern persimmon today."

"Go tell him that if he can help us get this lantern persimmon, we won't stop him in the future."

Zhang Rongrong's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said, "Okay, I'll go find him right away."

Zhang Rongrong quickly left the room and came to the yard.

A group of people surrounded an old man with a broken arm and tried to persuade him.

The old man had gray hair, a weathered face, and a depressed and stubborn look.

A middle-aged woman beside him pulled him and said earnestly: "You know what's going on outside. The people from Yunquan Temple have been keeping an eye on us for a long time. If you dare to go out and get left alone, you will definitely be besieged by them."

"Youwei, you are already old, why are you still so impulsive?"

Yang Youwei moved his mouth and said, "Are we just going to hide in the academy forever? Just survive by eating some mutant beasts and these vines and weed roots?"

"Hey, why don't you listen to advice? Let me ask you, even if you get out and get caught, how are you going to find your wife in the future?"

"Listen to me. When it gets dark, we will quietly accompany you out."

"You also said that you have looked for Yunquan Temple countless times. Your wife may not be there. Maybe she has escaped to another place..."

The middle-aged woman said this, but everyone around her sighed.

Things like escaping to another place are just words of comfort.

They all knew that Yang Youwei's wife might have died long ago.

But no one said it out loud for fear of upsetting Yang Youwei.

At this time, Zhang Rongrong came over and shouted, "Aunt Hong, don't try to persuade me. Uncle Youwei, Brother Xiangyang just said that we plan to pick that lantern persimmon. If you help us pick that lantern persimmon, we won't stop you from going wherever you want."

Yang Youwei raised his eyelids and said, "No."

Zhang Rongrong's face suddenly darkened, and she said, "Uncle Youwei, what do you mean? We saved you back then, and you lived with us, eating our food and drinking our drinks, but now we ask you to do something and you refuse to do it?"

"If you are so ungrateful, don't blame us for turning against you."

Yang Youwei's face twitched, and he looked at Zhang Rongrong: "Falling out? What are you going to do?"

"What? Of course I ask you to leave. We don't welcome people who want to get something for nothing here."

"I wanted to leave anyway, but you wouldn't let me go." Yang Youwei said coldly.

Zhang Rongrong said angrily, "You can leave if you want, but you have to spit out everything you've eaten and drunk with us these days, and give back Xiaolin's life that he saved your pony a few days ago."

Yang Youwei stopped talking immediately. He closed his eyes and said after a moment, "Okay, I'll go with you and get the lantern persimmons back. You can't stop me anymore."

Zhang Rongrong then raised her lips and said, "It's a deal."

At that moment, everyone from the Jieshi Academy gathered together, and led by Li Xiangyang, they quietly hid in the corner of the courtyard wall and left.

After leaving the academy, Li Xiangyang looked around and couldn't help but frowned. "Rongrong, look around."

Zhang Rongrong nodded and closed her eyes. An invisible mental force rapidly fluctuated and swept in all directions.

After a moment, she showed a look of surprise: "Huh, there's no one following me today."

Li Xiangyang was stunned: "No one is following me?"

In the past, there would always be speed-type psychics from Yunquan Temple stalking outside the Jieshi Academy. Why are there none today?
"That's great. Since no one is watching them today, we can take action and steal the lantern persimmon." Someone said excitedly.

Others also showed their joy and felt that today was a good opportunity.

Li Xiangyang thought about it, nodded immediately, and said: "Yes, today is indeed a good opportunity, everyone follow me."

After saying that, several people quickly dived into the jungle and soon disappeared.

In Yunquan Temple, Yangmei slowly opened her eyes, looking confused.

Liang Yuan quickly held her hand and said, "Are you awake?"

The memories before she fell asleep came back to her mind, and Yangmei's eyes suddenly became red again.

"Little brother, I...my mother..."

Liang Yuan reached out and hugged her, comforting her softly, "Don't cry, Sister Mei, I'll take you to find your father later."

Yang Mei thought of her father and immediately sat up and said excitedly: "Yes, my father is still alive. I have to find him quickly."

She was worried that her father might have another accident and it would be best if he could be found as soon as possible.

Liang Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to Jieshi Academy now."

Yang Mei quickly got up, put on her shoes, and followed Liang Yuan out of the room.

The bodies in the temple hall had been moved away and the severed limbs had been cleaned up, but some bloody smell still lingered in the house.

Old man Yang and another elderly man were standing in the hall, seemingly waiting for Liang Yuan.

Seeing Liang Yuan and Yang Mei coming out, Old Man Yang hurriedly ran over with this old man.

Old Man Yang said, "Mr. Liang, this is the old Gao, Gao Changlin, who is the one who knows the situation on Meishan Mountain better among the remaining survivors."

Liang Yuan looked at Gao Changlin and asked, "Do you know Jieshi Academy?"

Gao Changlin quickly said, "I know, I know."

"Please take me there, and tell me on the way what happened during the flood in Meishan."

"Hey, I'll lead the way, we can talk while we walk."

Gao Changlin immediately took Liang Yuan and the others out the door.

A group of people gathered outside the door, looking at Liang Yuan and the others with pleading in their eyes.

Liang Yuan glanced at them and said nothing, "You guys stay here first, I'll make arrangements later."

Everyone immediately showed joy, as this master of superpowers had no intention of giving up on them.

Gao Changlin said excitedly: "Thank you, Mr. Liang. We are all ordinary people. If there is no powerful superpower person in charge, I am afraid we will not be able to survive the night."

Liang Yuan hummed and said, "Lead the way."

"Hey, hey."

He immediately took Liang Yuan and walked out of the temple square and towards the outside of the temple.

After getting on the plank road, he began to talk about what happened in Meishan after the great flood.

"At first everyone thought it was just a normal rainy season with heavy rains."

"Everyone was very happy at the beginning, because in the summer, there was a long drought and the saplings in the fields had to be watered manually by us."

"Then the heavy rain continued for more than ten days, and everyone began to feel that something was wrong."

"But we are at the foot of the mountain and there hasn't been a flood in many years, so no one thought about it."

"Everyone is more worried that this year's crops may be flooded, which may affect the harvest."

"And yet this rain continued for a month!"

"The fish soup at the door was flooded, and many fish ran out. Some people who were greedy for cheap fish ran out to catch fish, and some people were swept away."

"We started calling the police, but the police station couldn't get through. That's when everyone started to panic."

"Then the flood came and the water started to rise, even flooding our gatehouse."

"The house was full of water, so we had to move upstairs."

"No one would think of fleeing to the mountains at this time. Everyone thought the rainstorm was about to stop."

"But the heavy rain continued and even started to flood the second floor."

"This time they were really panicking, and each family started contacting the outside world."

"However, there was a power outage at this time and no cell phone signal."

“It all started in the second month.”

"Some smart people have already thought of running to the mountains."

"I saw people sitting in wooden barrels and swimming up the mountain in the flood water."

"Some people took apart their bed boards, made a raft, and paddled up the mountain."

"We followed suit."

"We are the first group to arrive at the mountain."

"At that time, Li Changhe took the lead and we temporarily lived in Yunquan Temple."

"Later we went to help bring other people up the mountain. In this way, many people in the village escaped one after another."

"We rescued Li Kuirong and his entire family, but we didn't expect these beasts to..."

Gao Changlin revealed painful memories.

There is nothing new about how this is going.

After all, Li Kuirong and his colleagues were village cadres. After being rescued to the mountain, they quickly picked up the gear and began to arrange manpower. They said they were fighting floods and rescuing people, but in fact they began to collect supplies and redistribute them in the process.

During this process, some people were dissatisfied, some made trouble, and more and more emotional things happened.

The five brothers of Li Kuirong, together with some village cadres, formed a relatively united small group and firmly controlled the powerful position.

Then the mutant awakening incident happened.

The man named Li Changhe was the first to awaken his superpowers.

He took the initiative to take the lead and had a falling out with Li Kuirong and others.

Then a group of people followed Li Changhe and moved to Jieshi Academy.

The Jieshi Academy was also occupied by them at that time.

Li Kuirong and his men did not dare to fight with the psychic Li Changhe, so they could only swallow their anger and watch him take away a group of people.

As time went by, there was less and less to eat and drink, and people started quarreling and fighting over food.

During this period, some people accidentally found mutant fruits in the mountains and awakened their special powers.

Among the five brothers of Li Kuirong, Li Kuirong was the first to awaken his superpowers.

He used his special abilities to quickly bring together his team and gained the confidence to challenge Li Changhe.

However, this guy was rather insidious. He did not confront Li Changhe directly. Instead, he took advantage of their fellow-townsmen friendship and set up a Hongmen Banquet, saying that he wanted to apologize, make peace, and work together to rescue people.

Li Changhe didn't think much about it, agreed to the banquet, went to Yunquan Temple, and never came back.

From then on, Li Kuirong completely revealed his beastly appearance.

He began to rape women, kill people and steal food, doing all kinds of evil.

At this time, Li Changhe's son Li Xiangyang rushed back from outside and actually came to Meishan.

A kind-hearted person reminded Li Xiangyang in advance, which allowed Li Xiangyang to escape with luck.

This Li Xiangyang was also a character. Not only did he escape himself, he also instigated a group of supernatural beings who had grudges against Li Kuirong to run to the Jieshi Academy together.

Then the organization headed by Li Xiangyang took root in Jieshi Academy.

The two groups then fought each other constantly, but were hampered by the rampant mutant beasts in the mountains and the tidal crises every month.

For the moment, they ignored their hatred for each other and just retreated to their own little piece of land.

After listening to it, Liang Yuan didn't feel much.

In the face of the great flood, the threat to humans comes not only from mutant beasts, but also from their own kind.

He was not surprised by the dirty things that happened on Meishan Mountain.

One Yangshan can be used to build four shelters.

Meishan is not as big as Yangshan. It is not surprising that a village has become like this.

Don't think that a village is united. Wherever there are people, there will be fighting.

Some people are always self-centered. While satisfying their own desires, they also want to bully others.

Human nature is evil, selfishness is the basic color.
