The off-road vehicle that Li Chunwang was sitting on was running wantonly on this straight road, and it seemed that there were only four of them left in the whole world.

There seemed to be no end to the road, so it kept going west, until when the car was almost out of gas, and finally a different color appeared in front of it.

On the side of the road, a yard fenced in with shipping containers is dilapidated and dusty.

A dilapidated wooden sign at the entrance of the courtyard reads crookedly "There is a gas station".

The off-road vehicle carried all the way into the yard.

At this time, Li Chunwang already knew that the woman who was driving was named Gu Yinan, who was Xiao Manlan's former assistant, and this time, she was the first to stand for the desert trip.

Li Chunwang followed Gu Yinan to get out of the car, and at this time, two men and a woman came up, the man was tall and mighty, his face was rough, his hair was full of dust, and his clothes seemed to have never been washed, and there seemed to be a layer of wax on them.

He held a cigarette in one hand and a bucket of oil in the other, and he was not afraid to light it.

The woman was much cleaner, but it seemed to be a little outdated, and it should have been a few years ago.

Although she tried her best to dress up, she still couldn't hide it, and after a long time of wind and sand, her face was dry and yellow, but fortunately, she had a bewitching figure, but she was a little bit beautiful.

The woman opened her mouth and said, "Come on two thousand, pay first, then come on." ”

When Li Chunwang heard this, this is a black shop! He frowned and smiled bitterly: "When did the price of oil become so high?"

In this case, the other party seems to have seen it no longer strange, and the man said:

"Friend, the price of oil is not high, it is only two hundred yuan, and it is cheaper than the outside, and the other 1,800 yuan is entertainment expenses, as well as information fees. ”

"Entertainment fee, information fee?" Li Chunwang was a little confused.

The man knew that Li Chunwang didn't understand, so he raised his hand and slapped the woman's buttocks beside him, and said, "Twist one for this master." ”

The woman was very cooperative, raised her hand and put it on Li Chunwang's shoulder, and then used him as a steel pipe and twisted it.

"Get out!" Li Chunwang pushed away, and the woman almost fell.

The man frowned, a little unhappy.

At this moment, the car window opened, and a white jade hand stretched out, and in his hand was a wad of brand-new banknotes.

Xiao Manlan's voice sounded leisurely: "The surname is Li, come here, give him the money, don't be so petty, isn't it money?"

Li Chunwang frowned, this woman is too rude, she has to educate her well when she goes back, it seems that the lesson from the last time is not deep enough.

Li Chunwang walked over, took the banknote, and touched it on the jade hand by the way, which felt delicate.

Xiao Manlan was slightly angry, but she still held back, she said: "You ask him, what is the news, we are not short of money, and we are rewarded." ”

As she spoke, she took out another wad of banknotes, which seemed to have at least more than 10,000, and handed it to Li Chunwang.

Li Chunwang pursed his lips and sighed: Being rich is capricious! He is still not used to this kind of behavior of throwing a lot of money, and he is too distressed.

Li Chunwang went over with the banknote, and when the two people on the other side saw it, their hearts were full of joy, and they both had bright smiles on their faces.

Li Chunwang said: "Fill up the oil first, the money is indispensable for you." As he spoke, he tapped the banknote in his hand, and his voice was crisp and beautiful.

But the man was displeased, and said, "When I say two thousand, I mean to add a barrel of oil, and if you want to fill it up, you have to add another two thousand." ”

The corners of Li Chunwang's mouth twitched, this person is too greedy.

The man seemed to know that Li Chunwang was unhappy to hear it, he looked at the banknote in Li Chunwang's hand, played the emotional card, and said:

"Actually, it's not that we want to sell it expensive, we have to transport oil here, the cost is too high, and we also have to eat. ”

Li Chunwang didn't bother to bother with him, anyway, the money was not his own, so he asked, "Then what is the news you said?"

The man picked up two fingers and rubbed them, the meaning was very simple, that is, give money first, and then speak.

Li Chunwang counted four thousand yuan and said, "I hope your news can be worth this money, otherwise you will definitely regret it." ”

The man was not afraid of anything, and happily put the money in the hands of his female companion, and said:

"Presumably, a few of them are going to the no-man's land, whether it is the golden stone there or the burial dragon cave, it is really attractive.

However, I would like to advise a few people not to go at this time. ”

Li Chunwang frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"The latest news, a group of strongmen came to the no-man's land, probably with a military background, very domineering, and many people have died near Gentle Township.

Although no one saw that they did it, eight or nine were not far from ten. ”

Speaking of which, he looked at the off-road vehicle window and continued:

"You guys, it's better to be careful if you are too thin and tender. ”

The man's words were very informative, and Li Chunwang asked, "This gentle township...... Is it a place name?"

The man didn't explain, but sold a pass and said: "You went to a no-man's land, you naturally know, if you don't go, it's better for you not to know." ”

Li Chunwang didn't continue to investigate, and asked again: "Tell me about that gang of strongmen, they should have passed by you." ”

The man shook his head and said, "No, they came directly by helicopter." ”

Belch...... Li Chunwang was speechless, and then he asked again, "That's all your news?"

The man looked at the banknote in Li Chunwang's hand, and pouted, the meaning was very clear, he wanted to know more, give money!

Li Chunwang was slightly angry, and directly threw the rest of the money into his arms, and said, "Tell me everything you know." ”

The man took the money, he was in a good mood, and he said, "For the sake of your generosity, I will give you something." ”

Then, he took out a map from his arms and handed it to Li Chunwang, although it was hand-drawn, but a photocopy.

The man said: "This is the latest map of the no-man's land, and the market is priceless. ”

At this point, the man stopped talking and began to refuel the car.

With the map in his hand, Li Chunwang didn't even look at it, and was asked by Xiao Manlan to go over.

Soon, the oil was filled, and Li Chunwang and the others left.

Looking at the figure of the off-road vehicle in the distance, in the container behind him, a man holding a sniper rifle walked out, and he said lightly: "This is the seventh group of people." ”

The woman said without looking back: "The eighth dial, if you count half a month ago, there are at least a dozen dials." ”

"Blood Essence Stone, Golden Stone, Laba Feast...... It looks like it's really fascinating!"

......

The off-road vehicle continued to move forward, and after traveling more than 100 kilometers, Li Chunwang saw from a distance that a gray line appeared where heaven and earth met.

When the car approached, Li Chunwang saw clearly that it was a tall barbed wire fence, more than two meters high and wide to the sky, and Li Chunwang and the others were heading towards it.

At the intersection of the highway and the iron fence, there is a very conspicuous two-story concrete building with the word "army" written on it.

The road is blocked by a fence of iron fences, where there is a checkpoint where the soldiers who take care of the checkpoint are sitting on a chair on the side of the road with a newspaper over their heads, apparently sleeping.

However, his ears seemed to be very sensitive, and Li Chunwang and the others' cars were still far away, so he woke up.

He got up and stood still in the middle of the road, gun in hand, and watched the off-road vehicle approaching in the distance.

The off-road vehicle stopped, and Li Chunwang and others got out of the car.

The soldier opened his mouth and said stiffly: "ID card." ”

Li Chunwang glanced at each other, but obediently took out his ID card.

The soldier took out a small card reader that he carried with him, and he compared each person's ID card on it, making a "tick" sound, and then handed it back to several people.

Then, he pointed to an inconspicuous white sign next to him and said, "There's an announcement there, go see for yourself." ”

The four of them came to the bulletin office, and a few lines of small words were written on it succinctly:

In the uninhabited area ahead, due to the confusion of the magnetic field, many electronic devices cannot be used normally, and there are unknown dangers, and those who enter will bear all the consequences.

While Li Chunwang and the others were watching the announcement, the soldier had already stepped aside and opened the checkpoint, and this attitude was too casual.

Li Chunwang and the others returned to the car, Gu Yinan started the car and slowly drove through the checkpoint, and the soldiers closed the checkpoint and continued to turn back to sleep, as if nothing had happened.

As soon as they entered the wall, everyone immediately had a different feeling, but they couldn't say what was different about this feeling.

Li Chunwang took out his mobile phone and found that he could no longer identify the geographical location, let alone the mobile phone signal, which had been gone since he entered the desert.

Xiao Manlan took out a compass, which also lost its effect, and the pointer turned in circles and swayed.

It seems that there is something strange here.

But the strange thing is that there is still a road here, when was it built, and where is it?

After driving for more than two hours, the road came to an end, which was not the same as expected.

This is actually an abandoned well site, a radius of 100 meters, and the dilapidated fence wall is covered with air-dried handwriting: Xihai Natural Gas Company.

Entering along the gate, inside the fence, in the middle is an open space, apparently left behind by the dismantling of the equipment.

All around, along the fence are old cement houses with one-story heights, tattered windows leaking air everywhere, and some of the walls are cracked and cracked, as if they could collapse at any moment.

The paint on the wall has also been dried by the years, and it looks very decadent.

But on the walls of each room, a large number was painted, and it seemed that the largest number was 60, that is, there were sixty rooms here.

And the innermost one is particularly conspicuous, not only is the house very large, but there are also colored lanterns hanging on it, and it is already dusk, and the colored lights are flickering and dazzling.

The three neon characters above the house, "Gentle Township", are particularly eye-catching.

The door of Gentle Township was hung with rag curtains, and people kept pushing open the curtains to enter it, and in the gap between them, there were noisy human voices inside, as if someone was drinking and having fun inside.

As soon as Li Chunwang and several people's off-road vehicles entered the gate, they headed towards House 33, obviously, this was the result of Gu Yinan's front station, and they prepared a place to live in advance.

The car stopped in front of the door, and the four people got out of the car.

After a day of dust, tired and hungry, it seemed that he had finally arrived at a place where he could rest.

It's just that as soon as the four of them approached the door, a voice came from inside.

Gu Yinan frowned, and his face instantly became gloomy.

She immediately turned around and took out a submachine gun from the trunk, and it was a "sudden sudden" at the sky, and it was a mess.

What a tough woman.

Seeing this posture, Li Chunwang pulled Su Manyin next to him behind him.

At the same time, Xiao Manlan also took out a pistol from his waist and aimed it at the door.
