north.

Yidu Town.

Northern Commonwealth.

A river passes through the towering wall. This river is called Juma River.

Under the southern wall, there is an iron fence about six to seven meters high on the outermost layer. Each fence is as thick as a washbasin, and the gaps between the fences are about twenty centimeters.

One meter away from this iron fence, there is another layer of tighter fence, about the size of a thigh, but the gap becomes smaller, only less than ten centimeters.

Two meters later, there is another layer of fence that is only the size of the mouth of a cup, and the gap is only five centimeters wide.

A three-layer fence, the closer to the outside, the larger the gap and the larger the diameter.

Above this fence is a tall wall.

The fence is inserted into the water and is extremely stable under the gravity of the upper wall.

On the northern side of the wall, the same approach was adopted.

The wall is like a Great Wall connecting the two mountains, and the Juma River in the middle of the two mountains flows through it.

It rained heavily.

The water level of the Juma River rose and flowed violently from the mountains to the plains.

In this section of the Juma River within the wall, the widest part is twenty meters, and the narrowest part is six meters wide.

On the shore, there was a young man in a raincoat holding a net and constantly casting the net on the shore.

It was just that the rainstorm was too heavy and the river was fast, so he cast it several times in a row but failed to catch any fish.

The skinny man was a little discouraged, and after concentrating his concentration, he threw down the net in his hand again.

After waiting for two minutes, he pulled up hard.

Stab——

I don’t know if it was because he caught some sharp rocks that caused him to tear a hole in the fishing net.

"Not good." The young man's expression changed slightly, and he waded into the water to pull up the net regardless of the fast river.

He walked down from the shore, and the rapid river shook him this way and that.

There was panic in his eyes, and he wanted to retreat back to the shore, but it was hard for him to get this net. If he just left it here, he would suffer a lot.

"The net must be brought up!" The young man's eyes showed a trace of determination, and he looked at the raging river without any fear.

Go into deeper water.

When the water level reached his chest, the huge impact of the water rushed him downstream.

"I touched it!" The young man's face lit up and he picked up the fishing net that was caught on the rocks at the bottom of the river.

But at this moment.

Crash--

The raging river knocked him down. He could no longer control his body and fell crookedly into the water.

Gululu.

After falling into the water, he was swallowed a few sips of water.

He stretched out his hand to walk towards the shore, but the heavy rain blurred his vision. In addition, he was still in the water. Although he was less than two meters away from the shore, it was the farthest distance at this time.

"Help, help." He was carried deeper by the river, and the river water as deep as three meters directly submerged him.

He can't swim.

Gululu.

He stood on tiptoes desperately, trying to surface, but the river was too fast and the water level was too deep, so he could only rise and fall in the current.

The water flow was fast and it took more than ten seconds.

boom!

He was hit against the iron railing on the innermost level, making a muffled sound.

He was knocked unconscious, holding the fishing net in his hand tightly with one hand, and hugging the railing with the other hand, and slowly emerged from the water.

Huhuhu——

He was panting heavily, and even when he was panting, some water droplets flowed down his mouth and into his stomach.

I feel dizzy, and the hit I just received was too painful.

After resting for a few seconds, he floated on the water, then grabbed the iron railing and walked slowly toward the shore.

Sudden.

There was a searchlight coming from a distance, and he quickly put his head in the water. After holding his breath in the water for more than 20 seconds, he came out when he saw the light leaving his position.

"Fortunately, luckily it was not discovered."

Then he slowly walked to the shore holding on to the railing.

Save a life.

Fortunately, the position he chose was close enough to the railing and there was a railing blocking it, otherwise he would have drowned.

This is why he dared to go into the river even though he couldn't swim.

He was already soaked to the skin. In fact, he would have been soaked if he hadn't gone into the river. After all, it rained so heavily.

The boy's forehead was red and swollen, and it looked like he had just hit the iron railing.

He rubbed his head and went to pick up the fishing net with some frustration.

Nothing gained again today.

Um?

At this moment, he suddenly discovered that there was a palm-sized fish in the torn opening.

The fish got stuck in the torn opening and became entangled in the net.

"I'll go!" The young man looked excited and hurriedly squatted down, straightened out the net bit by bit, and then picked up the fish.

In the last days, no one will have enough to eat, let alone meat.

The boy has not eaten fish like this for three years.

I carefully inspected the fishing net and found that it had two openings, one large and one small. The large opening was more than ten centimeters long, and the small opening was three or four centimeters in size.

"Let's go back and replenish it. The most important thing now is to exchange it."

The young man arranged the net, put it on his shoulder, pulled out a piece of foxtail grass from the ground, pierced a hole in the fish's mouth, and ran towards the inner wall with the fish.

This huge base has two walls inside and outside. The outer wall surrounds the inner wall, forming a "back" structure.

The boy ran to a building outside the inner wall.

The building only has three floors, but it looks quite impressive.

The boy held the fish and pushed the door open with his shoulders.

Squeak——

The door was pushed open, and a muscular man sitting next to him glanced at him, ignored him, and was drinking.

The environment inside is completely different from the violent storm outside.

This is a small bar with only a few types of drinks in it, and it seems that these drinks are all blended with industrial alcohol.

But even so, it's still expensive.

Although it tastes bad, it can make you drunk.

In this small bar, there are only two dim lights and four or five tables.

There was a muscular man sitting by the door, and there was a man lying on another table, who looked like he was drunk.

There was a thin old man wearing glasses at the bar. After seeing the young man who opened the door and came in, he lowered his head.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Master Diao, I exchange fish for food." The young man walked over and put the fish on the table.

The skinny old man put down the wine glass he was wiping, pinched the grass in the fish's mouth with his thumb and index finger, and lifted the fish to weigh it.

We have been walking in the heavy rain, but the fish is not short of water and is still alive and kicking.

He smiled and said: "Yes, this one is not bad. People in the inner city should like to eat this stuff."

Then he asked: "Can I give you half a catty of millet?"

The young man pursed his lips and said, "But this one is bigger than the one I gave you last time. Why is it still half a pound of millet? It's all stinking old millet. The one I gave you last time has gone bad."

The skinny old man put the fish down, glanced at the young man and asked, "Do you want it?"

The young man was a little angry, but now he couldn't find any other place to exchange food except here, so he bit into it and said, "Yes!"

The skinny old man had no expression on his face as he pulled off the straw rope from the fish's mouth and threw the fish into a bucket.
