Chapter 419
In the western region of Shen Cheng city, near the southern bank of the Huangpu river .
It used to be one of the most expensive areas of Shen Cheng city in the age of light . There used to be countless skyscrapers spread across the river bank, and the streets in that area were always crowded with people .
However, nowadays it is only left with collapsed buildings and some broken skyscrapers that were still standing in ruins under the hazy shimmer .
After some time, in this ruined place where the hazy shimmer seemed to be the only light source appeared some small and blurry thin figures . They were crawling from one collapsed building to another one through the holes and cracks of the concrete buildings .
From the direction that those blurry figures traveled in the hazy shimmer . It appeared that this group of figures was heading towards a collapsed viaduct that was quite far away from them .
…
“Look what I found!?” a young boy said loudly and then quickly slid down from a pile of ruins while waving a glass bottle in his hand . He looked around ten years old, and his excited expression could even be seen behind his dirty face .
Immediately, all other kids below the ruins began to surround the young boy .
A slightly older kid, who had a big head took over the bottle, and used his spit to carefully clean the dirt off the label on the side of the bottle .
“Yang… Yang… river… something…” he struggled to read the words that were displayed on the label .
It instantly caused other kids to laugh non-stop . “Haha… . Big-head Niu, what did you say!? We didn't understand a single word . It is better to ask the Scholar to read it…”
“It must be a bottle of alcohol, I have seen one like it when I was young . ” said the boy whose head was indeed slightly bigger than others . The boy felt embarrassed . He stroked the back of his head, laughed with the rest of the kids .
“Haha . . . big head, why don't you say that you used to see the sun? You are not much older than us! Haha…” a kid who was wearing a ragged cloth laughed .
“It doesn't matter if you believe it or not!” The big-headed kid slowly changed his tone .
Soon, a girl who was wearing in an adult-sized cotton coat was led towards them .
“Scholar, can you tell us what was written on the bottle . ” said the big-headed kid .
“Yang, river, blue… oh… River Yang classic blue . ” said the girl after she checked the label carefully . It seemed like the girl was very weak, when she took the bottle, she almost dropped it .
“Classic blue? What is that? Anyone heard of it?” the kid who found the bottle looked at other kids and said . However, none of them knew what it was .
“Look at the smaller words . Three are some more . ” The big-headed kid pointed at the bottle and said .
“Hmm… something alcohol… company…” the girl looked at the words and said slowly .
“See! I said it is a bottle of alcohol . ” the big-headed said cheerfully .
“Then, how much is it worth?” the kid with a dirty face said with envy .
“At least one big car of food!” another kid spread out his arms and said .
“All you know is eat, can you not think of something else?”
“A bunch of naive kids . We should give this to the leader . If he is happy, he might help you to become an awakened warrior!”
“Wa… you are the youngest amongst us . You dare to call us a bunch of naive kids?!”
……
While all the kids were immersed in the happiness of discovering a bottle of alcohol, another kid suddenly shouted from the top of the pile of ruins . “Look, there is more!”
Then everyone saw a kid was waving a red box excitedly .
Quickly, all the children began to climb up the pile of ruins and used all their energy to dig the pile of ruins as if they just found the location of a grand treasure .
Soon, more and more stuff that they had never seen were dug out of the ruins and piled up on the side .
“We are rich! We are rich now!”
“This time I will definitely get the fruit!”
“I'll get new clothes!”
……
In a tunnel that used to be used by the subway line seven in the age of light, suddenly appeared a boy . He cautiously looked around the area outside the tunnel for a few seconds, then waved at the tunnel behind his back . Soon, another group of small kids nervously walked out of the tunnel .
The tunnel was not far away from the first group of kids, so they were immediately noticed by a kid from the first group .
“Everyone, those Japanese kids are here to steal from us again!” the kid who was on the watch immediately whisper-shouted .
“Where? Where?” All the kids quickly went to the kid who whisper-shouted .
“Let's throw rocks at them!” A kid quickly said when he saw the shadows .
“Yes . Quick, don't let them come out of the tunnel!”
“Scholar, find a place to hide . It is dangerous here . ”
