Chapter 511

"Or you'd better salvage them and cremated them. If you let them float downstream, not to mention polluting the water source, it's really pitiful."

And they don't have any clothes on them. They are all compatriots. Under the condition of ability, no one can bear to let them be exposed to the corpse.

Ye Fu nodded, "Let's salvage it."

There was a pit on the island for burning corpses. After six corpses were salvaged, everyone found that the dead were older old people, men and women, who seemed to be at least fifty or sixty years old.

Qi Yuan didn't want Xu Xu to see the cremation, but Xu Xu was bold and had no fear on his face.

Everyone silently put the body into the pit, put some firewood, and then poured gasoline.

"The dead are all old people. There are no wounds on the body. It's not food poisoning, is it?"

Ye Fu looked at Qi Yuan, "What do you say?"

"I just saw that their faces are blue and their lips are dark, which is very similar to the symptoms of poisoning."

Ye Fu didn't look carefully just now and missed such an important detail.

"It is possible that the people in the refugee camp can't eat enough food by relying on three catties to save food. They will go to the mountains around Heguang City to dig roots or pick leaves. The forests around Heguang City are almost bare. If they eat poisonous plants, they are indeed likely to be poisoned to death."

"If so, it would be too pitiful."

After being burned, some of the ashes were collected and buried on the pine and cypress trees, and the other part was sprinkled into the stream to let them float down.

The ashes are not contaminated, so they can be sprinkled into the water.

After returning to the wooden house, others came to ask what had happened. Qi Yuan told what had just happened.

Qi Yuan rubbed his face and said, "I hope that the night will end soon. If there is no sun, the trees will die of lack of oxygen. At that time, the life of more than 100,000 people in the refugee camp will be more difficult."

"There is a very serious problem. If the roots of trees cannot be dug, leaves or barked around Heguang City, refugees may reach out to the base or Heguang City. More than 100,000 refugees are not a small number. Once people are extremely hungry, they can do anything. After Ye Fu finished speaking, he looked at the crowd.

"The natural disaster is not over, man-made disasters are coming one after another, and I'm afraid that there will be war or riots."

"What?" Everyone was stunned by Ye Fu's words.

"War?" Wan Tao frowned and sat aside. No one was not afraid of war. The war has always been far away from everyone. If it really comes, what should we do?
"Don't worry, if there is a war or riot, we can leave and go somewhere else. I'm not alarmist. In history, after major disasters, peace has been restored through war. Disasters make too many people not full to eat and wear warm clothes, and some people will want to resist. There are too many people who don't have enough to eat. The resentment is also very deep. They hate the residents in the base who can eat, wear and have houses to live in. Once someone calls for resistance, they will definitely respond.

Most of the people here are educated, and everyone understands this truth, and many major events in history are meaningful.

"I don't want to see the scene that my own people can't beat my own people. I can't accept my compatriots killing each other." Fu Jiao was young and was scared by Ye Fu's words and her hands trembled.
