Doomsday Rise

Kneel down, prostrate, get up... Kneel down, prostrate, get up... Kneel down, prostrate, get up... The most devout worshipers move forward in a prostrate manner, which is more tiring than simply climbing. Three movements: kneeling, crawling, and standing up. Cultists who go to "Curse City" in this way often need to prepare a dozen or even dozens of sets of equipment. Homemade, simple, hand guards, and knee guards are generally used. Using cowhide material can withstand long-term friction on the ground.

The flat road is okay, but the key is that most of the road sections are in disrepair, with potholes and sharp gravel. Walking on such a road is tiring and you have to crawl forward. It is absolutely impossible without great perseverance.

Step by step, there is no opportunism, only down-to-earth. Starting from going out, repeat the action of prostrating yourself to the ground every day, even if you have thick calluses on your hands, knees, abdomen, thighs...

The elderly, women, and children are not physically strong enough to participate, but those who can bow to the ground are young and strong.

"I admire their faith and willpower, but I disagree." Huang Yueyue recorded all this with a camera. There are not many such people, only one in 100.

Each such person will be admired by other pilgrims, and their eyes will be like looking at a hero.

"Everyone has their own way of living. Some people think that life is the greatest, while some people think that everything can be thrown away for freedom. Others are struggling to find the truth. The truth is the only eternity in the world. , to some people, we may be pathetic." Liu Wei'an closed the book, raised his head and looked out the car window.

"Letters from the Family of Zeng Guofan" is good, but it was not read at his age. The book is a good book, but his mental journey is not enough and his insights are not deep. Maybe if he reads this book 10 years later, he can gain some understanding. It may be that he has read it too few times. If he reads it a few more times, he may have different ideas.

When he was studying in "Xinglong Military Academy", he developed the ability to read quickly and easily read ten lines at a glance. His super memory can engrave the words he has read into his mind in the shortest possible time. It was not until he started reading "Letters from Zeng Guofan" that he understood Why do those literary giants read so slowly, turning page by page, slowly and quietly, sometimes they may only read a few pages or even one page a day? It’s not that they are old and slow in thinking, but that some books, You need to look at it slowly, consider it carefully, and think about it carefully. If you look at it too quickly, you will not be able to taste anything if Zhu Bajie eats ginseng fruit.

"Why don't you read "Sun Tzu's Art of War"?" Huang Yueyue asked. In today's current situation, it seems that "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and "Thirty-Six Strategies" are more suitable. Even "Guiguzi" is better than "Zeng Guofan". "Letter from Home" comes at the right time.

"No rush, no rush." ​​Inside Liu Wei'an's ring was a collector's edition of "Sun Tzu's Art of War", but he never read it. To deal with zombies, there was no need for "Sun Tzu's Art of War" because he valued them too much.

"They are really not afraid,

Or fake? "Fang Xiaoyuan suddenly said.

"It's a fluke." Huang Yueyue guessed that she didn't think that all the pilgrims were not afraid of death. They were surrounded by zombies and could die at any time, but they still moved forward fearlessly. On the one hand, it was the power of faith, and on the other hand, it was luck. The world is so Da, I won't run into zombies. Even if I run into zombies, they will be eaten by others, so I can escape.

"How long until we get to "Curse City"?" Liu Wei'an stretched out. He had been in the car for half a month, and his bones were almost rusty.

"If this pace remains unchanged, it will take another three days." Fang Xiaoyuan's tone sounded a little anxious. Compared with worshipers, sitting on a chariot is naturally a hundred times more comfortable, but sitting in a chariot for half a day Month is also very tiring.

"The road to the Mayan Empire is too difficult." The chariot shook violently. Although Huang Yueyue had one hand holding the armrest, she almost fell into Liu Wei'an's arms. She blushed a little. Youfang Xiaoyuan In the car, she is shy.

The roads of the Mayan Empire are indeed difficult to walk. The Mayan Empire's own people complained that the road conditions were too bad. They, who came from the Han Dynasty, were used to walking on smooth highways, and they could no longer complain about such potholed roads.

The performance of Liu Wei'an's tank is the best. It has been specially strengthened for shock absorption, but it is still swaying and bumping. You can imagine how the other tanks are bumping.

"People in the Mayan Empire don't like cars. Is it because the roads are difficult?" Liu Wei'an said coldly. Huang Yueyue couldn't laugh because the road ahead was even more difficult.

Forget about the potholes, there are also some football-sized rocks scattered on the road. In order to avoid these rocks, the chariot can only walk in an S shape, which makes the people in the car miserable, and the speed is slower than walking.

As we get closer to the "Curse City", the number of pilgrims along the way increases rapidly, and there are all kinds of pilgrims.

There are many tribes in "Mayan Empire". There are more than 30,000 in incomplete statistics. Different tribes have different costumes and different outfits. The colors on their faces, the runes, the decorations on their heads, their languages... Go into "Maya Empire" "Empire" will feel like entering a hodgepodge.

Liu Wei'an, a person with an amazing memory, felt numb after reading "Introduction to Maya". After reading more than ten pages, he finally gave up.

These tribes also have their own languages. Mayan is the universal language, but some large tribes are still accustomed to using their own tribal languages. Because of their large population, the language usage rate in daily life is also very high.

Such great popularity will naturally attract the attention of zombies, and there are obviously more battles along the way. So far, only small groups of zombies have appeared, and the worshipers can kill them. Among the worshipers, there are many powerful evolvers.

Worshipers come from all directions and do not know each other, but when encountering danger, all worshipers will unite and help each other.

Especially when dealing with zombies, no matter whether they are capable or incapable, they will never look back. It seems that under the unified goal of pilgrimage, everyone has become a family. It is natural for you to help me and for me to help you.

Most pilgrims are very polite, and the most direct way to show this is not to disturb others. Other pilgrims will not disturb others without clearly expressing their need for help.

The majestic and ferocious chariot drove on the winding road, which was incompatible with the pilgrims who mainly walked, but there were no pilgrims to stop them. They all looked at all problems with a calm mind.

Because they were not in a hurry, the Ping An Army's convoy traveled during the day and rested at night. The same was true for the pilgrims. The temperature at night was too low. Rushing was almost like dying. The pilgrims had already stopped before it got dark. , set up camp, light fires to keep out the cold, everyone helped each other, and organized groups to keep warm.

Even strangers who have never met before can still sleep together back to back. This kind of unity shocked Liu Weian and others. In the Han Dynasty, they must be wary of each other. Thank God if they can't do harm to others. Now, trust is almost non-existent.

With a tent and a bonfire, the darkness is barely acceptable, but when you wake up every morning, you will still find that a few people will never wake up.

The worshipers were very calm about this situation, with no sadness on their faces. They carried the body to a nearby slightly higher hillside, picked up some stones to surround the body, which was slightly higher than the body, and then He chanted some unintelligible scriptures loudly to the sky. After about 10 minutes, he ignored them and continued on his way.

There is no need to bury it or erect a monument. Although it is surrounded by stones, it seems to be no different from the wilderness where corpses are exposed.

"Many tribes believe in heaven and earth. People come from heaven and earth. After death, they return to heaven and earth. The deceased does not die, but the body dissipates. The soul will return to the realm of the true God and be reborn at the right time. What they think is not The sutra is an ancient sacrificial song. The general idea is that the deceased may rest in peace and receive guidance from the true God. If you do not see the true God, do not be pessimistic and disappointed. It is because the time is not ripe. There will be a chance in the next life. If If there is no chance in this life, just wait for the next life, and one day you will be received by the true God." Ilukadan Russell explained.

"Sounds like a liar." Yang Wujiang also came over. I don't know whether it was because the cold protection work was not done well, or because it was extremely cold last night. More than 30 people froze to death at once, and a funeral was held for more than 30 people at once. , hundreds of people carried the body and paid homage, the scene was quite spectacular. I had seen several remembrances before, and the Ping An motorcade all watched from a distance in the car.

Because Liu Wei'an got up late today, the convoy was delayed in setting off, and happened to meet worshipers paying homage to the deceased.

"Let's go." After breakfast, the Ping An motorcade set off. Some of the pilgrims had already started on their way, while others had just gotten up. After days of traveling, they were physically and mentally exhausted. They needed longer sleep to replenish their energy, and they had little nutrition. Food to replenish physical strength is also a reason for their decline in physical fitness.

When traveling long distances, it is not suitable to bring meat or the like. You can only bring non-perishable dry food. Dry food is filling but not nutritious.

There is only one day's journey away from "Curse City". The road is still difficult to walk, but it is wider and the speed of the chariot has increased slightly.

The Mayans have no traffic awareness and do not always walk to the left or right. They will stand as long as there is a road. This causes the chariots to brake frequently. If they do not brake, they will hit the Mayans.

If there were other options, the Ping An Army would rather walk in the wilderness.

"Stop!" Liu Wei'an, who was playing chess with Huang Yueyue, suddenly said something. Huang Yueyue, who was about to make a move, raised his fingers in the air, raised his eyes, and said coquettishly: "I regret it just once!" Liu Wei'an picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted : "I'm Liu Wei'an, the motorcade has stopped." The motorcade suddenly braked to a stop, attracting the pilgrims on the road to look sideways. Liu Wei'an said to Huang Yueyue: "You have a rest in the car, I'll be back soon."

"Okay, what are you going to do -" Before Huang Yueyue could finish his words, Liu Wei'an had already got off the chariot. Soon, Elephant, Bai Kuai, Li Ershui and others also got off the chariot and followed Liu Wei'an. , heading northwest.
