Chapter 382 Must be wrong

If you stay, you will die; if you go to the resettlement area, you can survive.

Given these two choices, anyone who isn't stupid knows which one to choose.

Soon, someone in the crowd whispered a few words to the person next to him, then turned around and walked back.

Humans are social animals and have a herd mentality. If someone takes the lead, many people will follow.

Bai Dayong looked at this scene and didn't find it strange.

You might ask why they didn’t mention the resettlement sites directly at the beginning, but only talked about them after the action started and the victims were in despair.

First, these people may not listen. After all, no temporary resettlement site can compare to Junji Town. People believe that they will only be safe if they enter the city.

Secondly, it has a deterrent effect. Only by killing some people can these people be afraid and not cause trouble after going to the resettlement site.

The burden at the resettlement site is already heavy, and if someone causes trouble, the risk will be even higher.

Bai Dayong had already spoken a few words with the people who were guarding the checkpoint with him in advance, and everyone was surprised and then expressed their understanding.

Some of them have relatives and friends at the resettlement site, so they naturally hope that no one causes trouble there, and it would be best if there are as few people as possible.

In fact, if Bai Dayong had not said in advance that it was just a small warning not to go too far, those who had been sent to work in the mines would have killed all these people long ago.

In the eyes of these people, or in the eyes of ancient people, there is no cure for an epidemic and one can only wait for death.

Therefore, it is best to kill and burn those who escape from the diseased town to prevent future troubles.

These disaster victims probably knew their situation and, seeing that there was no hope of entering Junji Town, they turned around and headed for the resettlement site at a fast pace.

Soon, only more than twenty bodies were left at the scene and no one cared about them.

Sure enough, after experiencing a desperate situation, if one finds a place where they can breathe and survive, no one will refuse to go there.

At this time, Bai Dayong waved his hand, and then someone came forward to drag the bodies away, and quicklime was sprinkled on the ground.

The victims had an impression of the big rock that Bai Dayong mentioned, and someone had urinated next to it before.

This time, according to Bai Dayong's instructions, they went around the big rock and soon found quicklime scattered on the ground.

Everyone followed the direction of the quicklime and saw the resettlement site after going around the hillside.

Along the way, everyone thought of countless situations for the resettlement site, but they didn't expect it to be so unexpected.

There are rows of sheds at the resettlement site. Although they look temporary, they are very sturdy.

Not far in front of the shed is a row of stoves, some of which are boiling water, some are boiling medicine, and some are cooking porridge. The air is filled with the smell of herbal juice and rice porridge.

As soon as they saw them show up, two groups of people rushed out of the resettlement site.

The people at the resettlement site were dressed the same as the people who had set up the checkpoints before, wrapped from head to toe with only their eyes exposed.

Even though his eyes were not covered, they were protected by a hat that looked a little strange but did not block his vision.

Although the victims couldn't understand it, they could roughly guess that wearing this kind of clothing seemed to help isolate them from diseases.

And after just a few glances, they could see that everyone at the resettlement site was doing their job, and everything was so well organized and authoritative.

They were nervous and afraid, but they could only huddle together like frightened deer, watching the people from the resettlement site surround them.

The people in charge of this resettlement site were Bai Chunsheng and Bai Tiezhu. They held up a loud speaker and spoke to the victims: "Queue up, queue up, does anyone have a fever?"

"People with fever, raise your hands. People with fever, come over here and take medicine. Relatives, please don't help conceal this..."

"People who don't have a fever, please line up here for testing. Keep 1.5 meters (half a zhang) apart." "Hurry up, move, don't dawdle."

Finally, the two did not forget to give a warning.

"You'd better cooperate with us when you come to the resettlement site. If you don't want to, you can leave now. Don't even think about making trouble. You must have seen what happens to people who make trouble just now."

The checkpoint has been communicating with the resettlement point in real time, so they would know that what happened just now is not surprising.

These words reminded the victims of what happened just before they were stopped at the checkpoint, and their faces immediately turned grim.

"Hurry, is there anyone with a fever? Come out and take medicine quickly."

Fever could not be concealed, and when they heard that they were not being locked up but given medicine, the victims felt relieved.

But some people still asked worriedly: "Are they really going to give me medicine to drink?" Could it be that they are trying to trick the person out and drag him away to be killed?

Bai Chunsheng said angrily: "You are blind. Don't you see that those big pots are all boiling medicine? If they are not for drinking, then are they boiled for you to play with?!"

Someone else then asked, “So, are you going to lock us up and leave us to die?”

They escaped with all their might, and if they were locked up and left to die, what difference would it make from before?

Although it is a bit late to ask this now, people always hope for a miracle to happen.

Bai Tiezhu: "If you want to die, go find a place outside. This is a resettlement site, a place to treat illnesses and save lives."

Although the two spoke in a bad tone, such impolite words made everyone feel at ease for some reason, and everyone quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why are you asking so many questions? When you come here, just listen to us and cooperate with us!"

After saying this, he quickly urged everyone to line up.

When we were attacking the checkpoint before, we swore that no one had a fever. But when we arrived at the resettlement point, there were more than 40 people with fever.

Among these people, some knew they had a fever, while others did not even know it.

So, when some people heard that they were diagnosed with a fever, they immediately became anxious.

"I have a fever? No, I'm fine."

"You must be mistaken. How could I have a fever? I don't feel unwell anywhere."

"There must be something wrong." He can eat and drink, doesn't cough, and doesn't feel uncomfortable anywhere, so how could he have a fever?

The staff member who checked the temperature was used to this, but she was too lazy to say anything and just picked up the thermometer and pressed it against the man's head.

With a beep, the staff member glanced at him and said in a calm tone, "37.8. Fever."

Staff: “Next!”

This thermometer is a powerful thing. You only need to wave it on a person's forehead to measure the body temperature. The temperature is displayed clearly.

"Wait a minute, this must be a mistake, I..."

If you are diagnosed with a fever, you may have to stay with people with fever, which will make you feel sick even if you are not sick.

The man stretched out his hand to stop the staff from leaving, but just as he stretched out his hand and said half of his words, Bai Chunsheng next to him rushed over in three or two steps.

There is one more chapter, coming soon.

It’s a new month, please give me some votes.
