The two bodies were taken to a distant open ground and doused with gasoline. It burned quickly, and for its ashes, they were buried under pine and fir trees.
“They are all poor.” After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he looked at Meng Yu, “Can you tell me about the base situation?”
Meng Yu nodded, "I will definitely tell you everything I know."
Everyone back to the living room. This was the first time Meng Yu had entered this wooden house. Despite the shock in his eyes, he did not show it. Perhaps he had learned to kneel and hide his emotions while being around him.
After everyone sat down, he was still standing at the side with his head bowed. Qi Yuan said that his right calf was broken and he must have been uncomfortable standing for so long, but Meng Yu did not respond. He reported the situation of second base and the surrounding town and village to Everyone talking about it.
"The base is huge. It is said to be 4,000 square kilometers. It is roughly the size of a county-level city and has a large population. Except for the base management, most of the base residents live together."
"The weather has been cold in recent years. Although there are many greenhouses at the base for growing vegetables, the yield value is not high. Two years ago, food crops were no longer exchanged between multiple bases."
"Can the base support so many residents?"
Meng Yu shook his head, "The second base has already accommodated many refugees from other places. Although they were called slaves and stray dogs, the base would accept them because the second base's in charge was the army from the original north. Xinjiang."
No wonder.
“As far as I know, two years ago, the base in southern Xinjiang expelled many refugees, and those refugees fled to northern Xinjiang. The second base houses some of them. Even though they live in a barn, they have shelter from the wind and rain. It's just that Liu Shao and the others like to go to the refugee nest in search of new slaves, and the base does not strictly control these things, so they are even more immoral."
Everyone was a little surprised, "So, the second base is decent, and it should be done by the military."
"Natural disasters happen frequently, and be very careful to be able to do this. The base set up by the unscrupulous businessmen was a bloodsucking camp. What about the city? Are there a lot of people in town?"
Meng Yu nodded, "This city is actually similar to a refugee camp. Most people do not have enough food or warm clothing. The bark and leaves around them had been peeled off. Many people live off of porridge."
"What is the official food distribution?"
“Originally have a KTP, everyone can go in to receive food assistance every month, but only three catties. Most of the relief foods are bran, a serabi made from wheat bran. By the way, there are several greenhouses at the base, which are specially used for Raising insects, grinding them into powder, mixing them with Guanyin soil to make mud cakes, etc, a piece of mud cake can last for a few days, it is very cost-effective, just eat mud cake, people's stomach will become very large, Liu Shao said The man is a potbellied wild boar, but I heard from the doctor that if you eat too much Guanyin soil, you will experience flatulence."
Ye Fu frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable in his stomach, not because he was a hypocrite, but because he thought of himself in his previous life.
"What kind of insect are you talking about?"
Meng Yu pursed her lips, "There are also tree worms. Tree worms are stored in decaying wood. They are big and nutritious. This type of tree worm is for the people above. Refugees and residents eat other insects, including cockroaches. There are also moths, both of which reproduce quickly and do not choose the environment."
After Meng Yu finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
“Before the cold air lands, how does the base deal with it?” Ask Ye Fu.
"Many people died at that time. All the tree worms stored in the greenhouse froze to death. The base suffered greatly. It was cold weather. Most people hid inside the house, and many people died from the cold, especially in the refugee nest. Those who live in greenhouses do not have many survivors.
Mentioning this, Ye Fu did not ask again.
"Do you know Meilin Snow Falls?"
Ye Fu nodded, "How about facing the dead people at the base?"
Meng Yu thought for a few seconds, "There are two theories. If the person dies of illness, throw them into a mass grave. If you die of cold and hunger, throw them into the greenhouse. It is said that there was a greenhouse at the base, and the dead one was used to feed some livestock. I heard that there is no evidence, and I am not very clear about this.
Ye Fu smiled, "Understood, sit down, enjoy the fire, don't get too restrained."
Meng Yu seemed to be very afraid of Ye Fu, after she sat down, she still lowered her head, she did not hide anything from what everyone was asking and what she was answering.
Ye Fu could not judge whether Second Base was good or bad just because a few words Meng Yu It was true that Second Base had done a better job than Tal Base in providing asylum for the refugee.
Qi Yuan built a wooden bed for Meng Yu in the firewood room. There was no fireplace in the firewood room, and there was only one oven to keep it warm. Although he woke up, his calf was broken and his body was bruised.Many places In principle, he temporarily stayed in the wooden shed to recuperate.
Everyone still had a lot of work to do, from cleaning to washing clothes and cooking, Ye Fu had arranged the work for everyone, and the outside had become quiet in the past two days, and, and the sound of the race car at the Yuanhe Dam has disappeared. .
Officers Song and Qi Yuan were used to patrolling the island every day, and people should not be too comfortable, otherwise they would not know how they would die.
On this day, Ye Fu was still busy in the warehouse, upon hearing the sound of "dong dong dong" running, then the warehouse door was opened, and Qi Yuan entered from outside while panting.
"Ye Fu, something's wrong."
Ye Fu glanced at him, and continued working on his hand.
"Corn falling?"
"That's not the problem. Brother Song and I saved two more bodies."
Ye Fu nodded, "A slave washed from Yuanhe Dam again? Burn it clean and bury it."
Qi Yuan waved his hand, "This time is different, the two corpses don't look like slaves, you should go and look at it."
Ye Fu called Jiang Rong, and went to the beach with Qi Yuan. There are some people standing on the beach. They were Officer Song, Tang Yizheng and Meng Yu. Meng Yu's legs were paralyzed, and Officer Song gave her some experience in walking with a limp. It seems that everyone is not rejecting it too much.
"It was also caught in the weeds?"
Officer Song nodded, "This man is tied by water grass in the weeds, and the other man rushes to the riverbank and is sandwiched between two pine and spruce trees. Judging from the swelling of his body, he should have died within two days."
Ye Fu rubbed his chin, "Meng Yu, do you recognize the two?"
Meng Yu stared blankly at the man whose limbs were wrapped around water plants, his face was swollen like a pig's head, his clothes were tattered, and there was a Guanyin jade plaque hanging around his neck. Well, there are a lot of wounds on his neck. body, which is rather terrible.
"I recognize these two." Meng Yu's entire body trembled, and even her voice trembled. He pointed to the man wearing the jade plate and said, "This is Young Master Liu, my master."
Ye Fu blinked, "Who did you say he was?"
"Liu Cheng, son of Liu Song, director of the Second Base Resident Management Office."
