Cultivation Quick Transmigration: The Believer Girl is Lacking Money and Morals
Chapter 37 Natural Disaster
Grandpa Su brought the conversation back to the main point: "Alright, don't get too excited yet. This thing works with solar energy and can produce 20 tons of water a day. It would be good if we could make five of them so far."
The crowd fell silent again. They could produce 100 tons of water a day. If that were just enough to supply their city, it would be barely sufficient. But the capital city couldn't just ignore it, could it?
Finally, General Huo succinctly pointed out the key issue: "How can we transport the water back in this sweltering heat? The outdoor temperature is 58 degrees Celsius during the day."
Huo Zhanting suggested, "We can only travel at night, and we'll be bringing back unpurified water, since enforcement is limited."
General Huo patted his grandson on the shoulder and said to those present, "We're getting old, so let's just sit back and oversee things. From now on, let's hand it over to the younger generation and let Zhan Ting and his generation gain experience."
The old men all nodded in agreement, while the fathers exchanged bewildered glances. What about them? Did they just skip over it? They were only fifty, not even old...
The decision was ignored by everyone, because fifty is not young anymore, and it is indeed time to assist the younger generation. In this world, anything can happen, and such "what ifs" are all too common. So the matter was settled.
Huo Zhanting, as the chief of staff, is also the base commander, and is in charge of the troops under his command.
Baili Mo manages logistics, including the control and distribution of various supplies;
Xiao Yan trained young people to form a guard team, responsible for maintaining order and security patrols, etc.
Su Nanqi was in charge of the base's expansion, wall construction, and other related matters;
Han Yue was in charge of intelligence. Although the signal was gone, it wasn't a problem for him. He could still connect to the main network of other bases.
Finally, Chu Yunxuan was responsible for setting up a temporary hospital, supervising the hygiene of the base, and promptly handling various corpses to prevent plague. Yes, that's right, this person was a doctor, and a doctor with particularly good medical skills.
As for why he didn't follow the path of politics despite his family's political background, it was because he didn't like it. Since his older brother had already followed in his father's footsteps, he didn't care, and no one cared about him.
His older brother, Chu Yunxiang, was also there; he was in charge of receiving people and settling the survivors.
The conflict finally erupted one afternoon.
Driven by extreme thirst, young men who had nowhere to go and no water after being dispersed from several shantytowns attempted to storm the water collection points set up by the army.
The conflict escalated instantly, with sticks, stones, and guns clashing, and screams and roars shattering the tranquility of the villa area.
Mo Chenchen was unaware of this; she was in her bedroom eating ice cream and watching TV.
There was a knock on her door, the sound urgent and panicked.
Mo frowned deeply, went downstairs to the door, and looked through the peephole. It turned out to be Zhou Li's little nephew, a boy named Zhou Bo.
The child's face was flushed, he was covered in sweat, his lips were chapped, and his eyes were filled with fear.
"Sister... Sister, open the door... Save my uncle..." the child cried out.
Mo Chenchen didn't really want to meddle in other people's business. He was just a farmhand, after all. What he wanted was nothing.
But then I thought, surely one can't spend their whole life in space, right?
We still need to engage with the outside world, even if it's just to explore and see how far people have become aware.
Moreover, the Zhou family is relatively pleasing to the eye. If they all die, the villa will definitely need to be relocated, and it would be even more troublesome if someone like the Wang family came along.
Opening the door from the inside, Zhou Bo saw Mo Chenchen appear, his eyes lit up, and he rushed in, wanting to grab her clothes, but then hesitated: "Sister, there are bad people... bad people have broken into our house! Uncle is fighting with them, Grandpa and Grandma... boohoo..."
Mo Chenchen immediately understood what was going on.
Someone must have known that Zhou's eldest brother and sister-in-law were researchers and that they might have stockpiled goods at home. Plus, Zhou Li seemed like a civilized person, so they took advantage of the chaos outside and sneaked in to rob them!
And their goal is food and water!
She heard a commotion coming from not far away, and it seemed that the real problem was up ahead, while someone here was trying to take advantage of the chaos.
Mo Chenchen glanced at the Zhou family and then at the Wang family, where someone was climbing over the wall, and laughed rather unkindly. She was going to let the Wang family experience what despair was like.
Looking down at the little baby who was still anxiously watching her, she said, "Wait, I'll get the weapon."
She went inside and pulled out a baseball bat from her spatial storage. She decided against handing over the pistol, as she didn't want to do it again, and she didn't even consider taking out the knife.
He walked out of the villa, locked the door behind him, and said to the child next to him, "Don't get in the way."
After saying that, she didn't care whether the child could understand or not. Survival of the fittest. If the child could understand, he would live; if he couldn't, he would die sooner or later. She was not a savior.
She has a physical aversion to children. Don't be fooled by their innocence; these kinds of people can be truly wicked when they turn evil.
Just because her parents called someone a fool, they would bully that person every day, without any sense of right or wrong. They were despicable, just like the child she saved in her previous life. One-fifth of her misfortune came from him.
The Zhou family's courtyard was a mess, with flowerpots broken all over the ground. The villa gate was wide open, and sounds of fighting and cursing could be heard from inside.
Mo Chenchen strode into the courtyard and saw Zhou Li fighting with three thugs in the living room.
Although Zhou Li was a lawyer, he also had some fighting skills. Unfortunately, his opponents were four big men, and two fists could not fight against four hands.
He had multiple injuries, including a cut on his forehead with blood flowing down half his face, which slowed his movements.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhou were pushed against the wall and turned pale with fright.
Zhou Li's elder brother and sister-in-law were cornered at the stairwell by the other two people. Zhou's elder brother was covered in blood, while his sister-in-law was pale and clutching her clothes tightly.
"Damn it! Hand over the water and food! I heard someone in your family is an official, so you must have some stockpiled!" A blond thug shouted as he attacked Zhou Li.
"Why waste your breath on them! Search them!" another scarred man yelled impatiently.
Mo Chenchen's appearance brought a moment of silence to the chaotic scene. Looking at Mo Chenchen entering through the door, everyone felt as if they had returned to the pre-apocalyptic world.
She was a young girl, holding a baseball bat, standing expressionless in the doorway, her eyes devoid of any emotion.
"Oh? Another delivery guy?" The blond thug grinned lewdly, temporarily letting Zhou Li go, and walked towards Mo Chenchen: "Little sister, you're pretty good-looking, with the brothers..."
Mo Chenchen came out in a hurry today without wearing a mask. Her pretty little face was dazzlingly white. She was wearing soft pink pajamas. She was already very beautiful, but in this post-apocalyptic situation, she was even more striking.
This was the first time that Zhou Li and the Zhou family had seen Mo Chenchen's face. In the past, Mo Chenchen always wore a mask and hat, and was covered in dust, no matter the occasion.
All the windows in the villa were covered with thick curtains all day long.
Before the word "play" could even be uttered, Mo Chenchen stirred.
Her speed was astonishing—she sidestepped, stepped forward, and swung her stick! Her movements were clean and crisp, carrying a fierce, swift force!
With a loud "bang," the baseball bat struck the blond-haired man's arm, and the sound of bones breaking was clearly audible.
Huang Mao clutched his arm and screamed in agony. Despite only having an injured arm, he couldn't stand up and collapsed to the ground, writhing in pain.
The scarred man and the other thug were both stunned by Mo Chenchen's move.
They never imagined that this seemingly innocent and well-behaved girl could be so ruthless; she was clearly trained.
Zhou Li also took this opportunity to catch his breath, looking at the slender girl with equal shock.
The scarred man realized what was happening and immediately became enraged: "Damn it, she's hot, let's get her together." With that, he and another thug pounced on Mo Chenchen.
Mo Chenchen's eyes remained unchanged. She nimbly took half a step back, dodging the dagger that the scarred man was stabbing at her. She then used her baseball bat to deliver a downward sweeping blow, hitting another thug squarely in the chin!
