The world's largest sewer "dungeon": more than 6,000 people live, surviving like rats
In today's world, although people's living standards have long been improved by leaps and bounds under the development of science and technology, in some countries, there are still people who cannot enjoy the life under the sun, but live in groups like rats in places that are not visible. Bucharest in Romania is such a place.
As the capital of Romania, Bucharest is a unique tourist city in the whole of Europe, quite famous in natural landscapes, and even known as "Little Paris". However, behind the bright and beautiful, there is often a dark and dirty side. For most people, no one would have imagined that there were more than 6,000 residents living beneath the city.
Like slums in other cities, people who live in urban sewers are often people who have been abandoned by society or who have experienced a crisis and can no longer make a comeback. After all, for normal people, if they can have their own house in the sun, why should they live in the sewers? But here, their daily income can only meet their own survival needs, and they cannot even pay the rent of the house.
In addition, this huge dungeon has also become a paradise for patients and drug dealers because of its special environment. Because the environment of the sewers is quite bad, the residents who are basically willing to enter the sewers are either penniless homeless people or people suffering from terminal illnesses such as AIDS or infectious diseases that make it difficult to live on the ground. For these people, in order to survive, it is not unusual to participate in drug trafficking and other things.
And in this underground world, it is also natural to form its own rules. Over time, a leader with power and prestige was born, and of course, this leader was also the biggest drug dealer in the underground world. Everyone who entered the sewers had to first get the consent of the chief, and after entering, at the cost of shelter, the sewers had to pay either a portion of their salaries or became members of their organization.
Of course, although this sewer is full of darkness, there is often a human light in it. Since the inhabitants of the sewers are people who have been semi-detached from society, their families and friends are the other people who live in the sewers.
In this dungeon, people do not discriminate against disabilities or diseases, on the contrary, in their spare time, they will comfort each other, have fun in their suffering, and talk about their desires for the future life.
In the dungeon, the inhabitants have formed a balance, and no one will be willing to accept people who break the rules, nor who will want to be people who break the rules. All they can do is survive in the dungeons, accept a less friendly life, and spend as much of a life as possible in a limited life before illness and death, like rats struggling in muddy water.
The sewers of Bucharest are like an outlying island, and the people inside are longing for life outside, and in the sewers they are hungry for affection and warmth, but life does not leave them with this opportunity. In fact, the people in the sewers are the same, the helplessness and hardship of life are difficult to change the facts, but they are defeated by reality, and finally can only pursue the light in the sewers.
