《fall into darkness》Chapter 73: "Washing Day"
Advertisement
Du Di'an nodded, expressing that he understood that there was no surprise in his heart. The radiation concentration outside the wall was too high, and the items were covered with thick radiation and germs, which naturally needed to be cleaned up. However, what made him a little concerned was that the Holy See of Light was in charge of this work.
"Your items!" A bright guard in his early twenties shouted to Du Di'an: "Report your name."
"Name Du Dian, this is my item." Du Dian heard the words and handed over the burden on his back.
The young guard beckoned to the companion next to him, a bright guard came over, picked up the huge burden on Du Di'an's back, wore a white mask on his face, and snorted, "Good guy, it's heavy enough, don't be full of scrap copper Rotten iron."
With that said, send the baggage to the escort car behind. A female guard stood on the car, tore a note from her wrist with Du Di'an's name on it, pasted it on the bag, and then threw it into the escort compartment.
"Next." The young guard waved.
Du Dian thought for a while, took out the seven dark blue balls in his pocket, and said, "I saw this too, do I need to send it together?"
The young guard looked down, couldn't help stunned, raised his eyes and looked up and down at Du Dian, squinting: "Little guy, where did you pick this up?"
"In the head of the walking corpse." Du Di'an said truthfully.
The young guard stared at him and said, "How could you think of rummaging through the heads of walking corpses?"
"Curious." Du Di'an said.
The young guard stared at him tightly, but when he saw the latter staring at him without blinking, he was very calm and could not help but nodded slightly, saying, "I have accepted this thing, and it will be recorded on your account. It's worthless, and your consortium will naturally inform you when you look back." After saying that, he gave Du Di'an a meaningful look and took seven dark blue balls.
Du Dian read a bit of pity and indifference in his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel strange, but he knew that it was not appropriate to ask more, so he turned to leave the passage.
At this time, after the young guard put away the seven dark blue balls, he took inventory of the three Macon's supplies one after another. When the passage was closed, when Pete came out of the steps, he saw that there were no other scavengers behind him, and immediately waved his hand. , said: "Everyone gets in the car."

"Dian!" Scott lifted the curtain of a black carriage and waved to Du Dian, "come here."
When Du Dian saw his invitation, it was inconvenient to refuse, so he stepped into this carriage.
Mia and another newcomer boy sat in the spacious carriage, while the three consortium scavengers rode in another carriage.
"We have wronged you before." After the carriage moved, Scott said apologetically.
Du Di'an shook his head slightly and said, "It's human nature, don't blame you."
Scott looked at him and saw that he didn't seem to hold any grudges, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, you are our savior this time. Please have a good meal, but unfortunately you are too young to take you to those colorful places... Cough, if you have any trouble or don't understand in the future, just tell me, I will do my best to help you. All out! "At the end, his expression was a little solemn. Although he was laughing in front of him, it was clear that this was what he really wanted to say.
Du Dian smiled slightly. Previously, he and Mia were surrounded by walking corpses. They could abandon the scavengers of the consortium and leave, but they stayed. This alone made him admire. After all, he is a person who has experienced life and death. He is very aware of how desperate he will be when facing death, and he also understands what kind of evil thoughts people will breed under that kind of despair.
To be able to suppress these evil thoughts is to truly see your true nature!
So Du Dian admires.
"What did you mean by "washing day"? "Du Dian asked curiously.
Scott patted his head and said with a smile: "Look at me, I forgot to tell you this, fortunately that fellow Pate is not here, otherwise he would have to nag me again. When I planned to enter the eighth district to scavenge waste, I was free at night. Now, I can slowly introduce to you newcomers..." He sighed, shook his head slightly, and said to Du Di'an: ""Washing Day" is a routine after each return, and like those items, our bodies also need to go through Check carefully before you can enter the giant wall living area. "
"The "washing day" is a total of three days. After anyone is infected, the longest incubation day for the virus in the body is three days. If three days pass and the body does not turn into a walking corpse, it proves that the body does not carry the virus and can return to the living area. . "

Du Dian came to a realization.
really.
Walking corpses and monsters can be prevented by giant walls.
However, the penetration of the virus is much more terrifying. Once a person bitten by a walking corpse returns to the wall and is not found in time, the disaster will be extremely terrifying. Even if the spread of the virus is not controlled in time, The whole area will be infected!
Suddenly, Du Di'an thought of the "wall of boundaries" between the commercial area, the residential area, and the slum area. Are the towering city walls and giant gates not just distinguishing the rich and the poor, their original meaning is actually to divide each area. To prevent the virus from penetrating into the wall and infecting all areas at once?
The more Du Di'an thinks about it, the more likely it is.
At this time, Scott asked curiously: "Dian, why did your power become so strong, you only got two blessings, but your strength is stronger than me, but I got nineteen blessings man."
Mia and the new boy who were sitting next to them were also full of curiosity.
Du Di'an saw that they hadn't forgotten this question, and he was a little helpless in his heart. Sure enough, people's curiosity will never fade if they are not satisfied.
"The air in the wall is still good." Du Di'an said.
Scott's mind was full of black lines, "You're too blunt to change the subject."
Mia couldn't help but chuckle.
Du Dian was a little embarrassed and said, "I really don't know, I passed out and woke up like this."
"Okay okay..." Scott could only give up when he couldn't ask anything.
It didn't take long for everyone to come to a certain place on the outer edge of the commercial area. This is the edge of the living area, and there are few people. However, the radiation in the air is much thinner than other outer areas, and the content is almost the same as that of the living area. The reason why it is sparsely populated is because it is a forbidden place!
Withered vine-like old trees grow on both sides of the street, and several secluded castles stand on several hillsides. The carriages of Du Dian and others stopped in front of one of the ancient castles, and everyone got off one after another.
The guard in front of the castle saw the carriage from a distance, so he opened the door of the castle, and flew out from the castle a dark red-haired horse nearly three meters high. At first glance, it is a very aggressive warhorse.
Sitting on the horse's back was a young man dressed as a bright knight. He lightly tightened the rope, and the strong horse neighed and stopped in front of the crowd. He was not wearing a helmet. Cheeks, handsome and extraordinary, glanced at Du Dian, Scott and others lightly, and said, "Come with me."
Scott nodded respectfully, and followed Mia first.
Du Dian and Macon looked at each other and followed.
Everyone knows that the young man with extraordinary temperament in front of him is the bright knight in the Holy See of Light. This is much nobler than ordinary knights. Only with extremely high quality can he be awarded the title! If it is said that ordinary nobles have knights to follow, which is the basic equipment of nobles, then it is an honor to have bright knights to follow, or to cultivate bright knights in their own family.
This is a very face-to-face thing among the nobles.
In addition to the status of glory, the powerful strength of the Bright Knight is also unquestionable. It is the number one pioneer in eliminating the evil alchemist and potionist. Ordinary knights need to dismount and salute when they see the Bright Knight!
At this time, everyone followed the bright knight into the castle and came to a basement behind the castle.
"Everyone has a room, bathes and changes clothes, and stays for three days. There is a "Bright Book" in it. It is best to read more. Even if the body is not polluted, it can purify your heart full of impurities." The blue-gray-haired young man said indifferently.
"Yes, Lord Knight." Scott nodded respectfully, already familiar with the rules here.
Du Di'an and others were newcomers, and they followed Scott to learn from each other.
This small room in the basement is made of rough iron pillars, similar to a prison cell. There is a sleeping bed, a wooden toilet, and a small clean table, each with a pale gold book on it. Book with cover, white and silver streaks.
