Plague Doctor

The moving truck was turbulent, and Gu Jun was somewhat surprised that this common poster could make Po so excited and surprised.

“Dude, where'd you get that painting?” A garlic nose boy "A Qiang” looked straight at the heat, “That's it, I'd trade 5 mice for it! ”

“Alas, it would be nice if Lisa could see it.” Another skinny monkey, "unfortunately," she always wanted to know what the ocean looked like. ”

Po told Gu Jun that Lishan was the sister of a skinny monkey. What confused Gu Jun was that they didn't sound like Lishan was dead or in danger. And he said, "Is there a chance?” Po hey hey, “I don't know, I don't know. ”

“What is this?” Another slightly taller man, "Big Bull," strange to the two animals in the poster, "Is that a fish? ”

“Sure, I don't know what fish it is.” Po wasn't angry, he already knew it was a fish.

Gu Jun listened to them squeamish. It seems he has never seen a fish. Just look at the dry land around him. The fish must be very scarce here...

“It's not a fish, it's a dolphin.” He explains gently, "although living in the sea, he is also a mammal and has a high IQ. ”

“What?” Po wondered, "John, skinny monkeys, bulls and other people don't understand, what do you mean like animals?

Gu Jun shrugged, looking at the confused faces of this group of young men, the level of education at the end of the day... what era is this? He had to talk seriously about biology, birth, breastfeeding, “We humans are mammals too, fish are not, fish are fertilized eggs hatched. ”

Everyone heard scratching their heads, so Po understood a little more, and the bull a little less, but they understood what breastfeeding meant.

“Breastfeeding, that is...” Po put his hands in a circle in front of his chest, his face was very excited, another excitement.

They laughed and laughed all the time, filled with ambiguity that men could understand. But when it comes to dolphin breastfeeding, they don't believe, right, when this native is joking, "Breastfeeding in the ocean? Eat seawater or eat that! ”

“I don't know if the fish will breastfeed, but I don't see where that thing is breastfeeding.” The bull stares at the two dolphins in the poster over and over again.

Po was having fun with this expatriate. "Brother, think about the women's meat. Think about breastfeeding everything. Ha ha really. ”

The crowd laughed louder, a group of men gathered together to talk about this, the more vigorous it was, the more they talked about which woman they knew. It was too big to eat, too thin to pull, but it was like the whole flesh was growing there.

Gu Jun knows that if he doesn't want to change the subject, these people can keep talking about it.

But he had tried to bypass the rhetoric before, and they couldn't even hear it. It seemed that the wasteland growth environment had brought them back to the wild, the vulgar, the natural, and so on. They would say whatever they had and wouldn't speak as he perceived.

“Gentlemen, I really want to know.” Gu Jun tried to ask directly, "What is Angel City? ”

The surrounding laughter stopped, the squeal of the convoy was still ringing, and Po and they looked at each other.

“Well, nobody here knows anyway.” Po thought about it and wanted to say, “What's the name of the place you came to? Oh, Eastern States. Isn't that like us? Angel City, taking over the water, life is in there, I hear the people inside are eating up, they are also taking up oil! They have everything. But some of the things were ours, they were all stolen..."

Po said it confusing, excited it was so messy, but Gu Jun could understand it.

Angel City, a major force that occupies resources and dominates this waste land, and Po, these people are other colonies that have been exploited. They have endured the burden of humiliation, hiding in the East, fighting in the West, and now the days are over.

“Spell it, spell it!” The bull's jar shouted, “The City of Angels won't let us live, so we'll fight them. ”

Gu Jun thought that the chief would not know if these young people could not hide, or arrange for him to come to the car. He might also be willing to let him know.

“Did I just hear your boss say, Locust God?” He asked again, "I've never heard of this in my hometown. ”

They heard something strange. Po asked, "Are you free of locusts? ”

“There is a locust plague, but there is no locust god.” Gu Jun looked at the motorcade passing by. It was all deserted land. Was the world... destroyed by locusts? He said, "It must be different historical legends that circulate around us. What do you say here? ”

“Alas!” Po sighed first. The younger skinny face was a bit heavy, "hundreds of years ago? A thousand years ago, there was a great locust plague, an endless locust plague, eating up all the plants, eating up a lot of things, drying up the current, and a great plague, killing a lot of people. ”

“Then some believe in the locust god. The strongest believers in Angel City are called ‘Locusts’, and the Locust Squad's men have done all they can.” Po spat. “Shit Locust God, we don't believe in it. It's clear that those bugs are our enemies...”

When he heard the word plague, Gu Jun couldn't help but frown.

It was not his expectation that the end of the world, as described by the Lalaire people, was the rise of Lalaire from the sea and had nothing to do with the locust plague.

“Bugs”? When he heard it, he suddenly remembered the witch saying in a derisive tone, "The Islamists are no better than worms. ”

Is he suspicious, or... is there a connection?

“What kind of bug is that?” Gu Jun asked, "What's it like? ”

“We haven't met. Everyone we've met is dead.” Po hates it, “the legend said, an aquatic worm, and when they flew away, they also took the water away. ”

Gu Jun shrugged, remembering this message in his heart, and wondering about the unusual level of power in the world, “Do those locusts really have any power? ”

Speaking of which, everyone's breathing anger seems to have some fear, but it's more about young people's blood.

“Whether they have or not!” Po muffled, “you said," Angel City is going to make a sacrifice, they are going to call for locust disaster! Everything alive here, including us, will be eaten by those water bugs, except Angel City! You think you can make it through this? ”

“Then you...” Gu Jun hesitated. Surely, they were going to Angel City to fight.

The question is, how could Angel City, which has the ability to control this scrap, be afraid of their convoy and dozens of guns?

“We're going to wipe it out there.” Po bit the teeth, “today, annihilating Angel City. ”

The bull next to him yelled again: "No women come, no women! We still have a lot of men at home, and my brother is there. When we wipe out Angel City, without all that scourge, the women give birth to the dolls, they don't believe in the worms. In a few decades, everything will be fine here! ”

Skinny monkeys, Qiang and others have also become more complex in their faces. They are both sad and powerful, and they are still afraid and confused.

Gu Jun knew that everyone in this convoy had never thought they would make it back alive. This time to Angel City, they were desperate.

But there's something really unknown about him, "How big is Angel City? How many? ”

Could Angel City actually be a neighborhood with hundreds of people living in it?

“That's it, look for yourself.” Po pointed the convoy forward, the noise was louder around him, and the men shouted.

Gu Jun turned his head and suddenly stunned.

Just across the wilderness horizon, there are signs of the city's contours, and you can't see all the tall buildings... Angel City is truly a city.
