Chapter 3500: Chapter 3500: Granaries, Evenly Distributed
Moreover, there’s no need to crowd when fetching water by the pool!
They immediately turned around, ready to head for the pool.
It’s not that they were too eager, but food supplies determine whether they would go hungry or not. If those supplies all burned up, and they didn’t know how long they’d be trapped here...
Wouldn’t they eventually starve to death?
So, they must put out the fires; only then would they have hope of survival.
"Wait, come back!"
Chief Zuo saw them all about to run and called out to stop them again.
"Everyone on your side should head to one place to put out the fire, just to the residence at Spring Alley. Abandon all other areas for now!"
He said.
With so many places in the city on fire, if they spread out further, nothing would be preserved.
The only option was to concentrate everyone in one spot. Only in this way could a little be saved; right now, saving something is better than losing everything.
After hearing his words, everyone looked at each other in silence.
"What are you standing around for? Hurry up and go?!"
Chief Zuo, seeing them standing like fools, shouted again.
"Do you think splitting up will save any places? Only by focusing on one place do we have a chance to put out the fire. For the other places, we’ll go there after the fire at Spring Alley is extinguished."
"Yes, yes."
Immediately, an Evil Cultivation member reacted, grabbed a bucket, and ran off.
The other Evil Cultivation saw someone running and followed suit, calling to others running towards them as well.
Chief Zuo watched the Evil Cultivation members run off and let out a heavy sigh.
He didn’t expect things would reach such a point; even he hasn’t had time to react yet. Sigh.
"Where is Ge Leader?"
He turned and asked the Evil Cultivation member who came to fetch him.
"Ge Leader is also here, but on the other side," the Evil Cultivation member replied.
The main issue was that the master distributed the granaries so evenly that it’s impossible to concentrate forces for firefighting. As a result, their information couldn’t sync, and they had to rely on themselves.
Moreover, what he didn’t say was that nobody wanted to work with Ge Leader right now.
Because the smell around Ge Leader was unbearable, they were already unable to fill their bellies each day. If that stench made them vomit, who would be willing?
So, with Ge Leader handling business on one side, they went elsewhere.
Chief Zuo rolled his eyes.
These days, he’d heard quite a bit about Ge Leader’s antics.
He couldn’t understand why Ge Leader couldn’t just mind his own business peacefully instead of competing with others?
Specifically with Xiao Yi over there, was Ge Leader capable of handling it?
One must realize, even the master himself wasn’t entirely confident in taking down Xiao Yi’s Bloodthirsty Squad.
"You keep an eye here. Make sure they don’t greedily target everything. Concentrate on extinguishing one fire. I’ll go check elsewhere," instructed Chief Zuo.
"Yes, Chief Zuo," responded the Evil Cultivation member, following those carrying wooden barrels.
Sigh, what is this situation? How did a fire break out? How ruthless are those who poisoned them to burn all the food supplies?
They really don’t want us to live peacefully.
Without food, they’d all starve to death!
...
"Chief, who do you think caused this arson incident?" asked the Evil Cultivation member following Chief Zuo, in a low voice.
