Chapter 231: The Wild
Meng Yuanyang mutters this sentence the most every day.
But in the past few days, Chu Feng still didn't bring her any good news, and he finally couldn't help but let Chu Feng inform Chu Baihan.
But Chu Feng couldn't get through to Chu Baihan's phone number, so he turned around and contacted the person they arranged to find out information in the no-man's land, and the person said that Chu Baihan hadn't arrived yet......
At this time, on a boundless desert, Chu Baihan and Shen Qilin were walking forward with difficulty carrying boxes.
His body had long been roasted by the bright sun and sweated, and all the padded jackets and down jackets he wore when he came were thrown on the boat.
"Damn, this is two heavens of ice and fire! I was so frozen on the ship that I had white frost on my eyebrows!
Shen Qilin rolled his clothes up to his waist, and his eight smooth abdominal muscles were exposed, and the skin on his waist was white and delicate, and a few green tendons were faintly visible on it.
If you can describe it in two words, it is "fragrant", the kind that makes people want to have nosebleeds.
The fine sand under his feet is also roasted hot, and when he steps on it, it makes a rustling sound, and a breeze blows in the face, rolling up a piece of yellow sand and making people suffocate.
Chu Baihan squinted his eyes and blocked his mouth and nose with his cuffs, the stubble on his chin had grown old, and he really looked like a fugitive suspect.
Shen Qilin is the same, the dark circles under his eyes are obvious, and the dense stubble on his chin does not match this delicate face at all.
The dock here is still some distance away from the no-man's land, Chu Baihan originally wanted to make a call to the people at the information station here, but when he got off the boat, he found that the mobile phone had no signal at all, not a single grid.
Chu Baihan had no choice but to take Shen Qilin in the direction he remembered, and finally a few earthen caves and scattered houses made of mud appeared in front of him.
"Oh my God...... There are really people living in this place where birds don't......" Shen Qilin raised his eyebrows and smiled helplessly.
"If there is no one, we won't have to make this trip. Chu Baihan's eyes instantly became much more energetic, and he walked towards the earthen kiln in front of him step by step, and Shen Qilin also followed closely behind him.
A wooden gate, which did not look very strong, was tied to thick logs on either side with iron wire, and the walls on all sides were made of earth.
"Is there anyone?" Shen Qilin shouted inside at the top of his voice.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a hobbled step came out on crutches, and at first stood in the doorway and looked at them.
Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the two of them's dress, he smiled and asked, "You two just came to this place, right?"
Chu Baihan nodded expressionlessly.
The man dragged his lame leg towards the door, bending over with difficulty, as if to clean up the things in front of the door.
After a while, he heard a click on the latch of the door opening inside, and the door showed a little crack.
"If you don't dislike it, I'll live here now, and the houses here are all simple, not better than the ones inside. ”
"Inside?" Chu Baihan's tone was quite puzzled.
The middle-aged man on the opposite side was stunned, and then said slowly:
"Here, just the two of us, if we go inside, it will start to be chaotic, and you must know that there are all bad masters, a group of wicked people stay together, a small fight every two days, and a big fight every three days. ”
He sighed helplessly as he spoke.
"If you don't have a place to go, you can stay with me for one night and then make plans. ”
Chu Baihan went up and down a lot, and then said meaningfully: "Okay...... Then stay for one night......"
"My name is Li Sheng, you can just call me Brother Sheng. With that, he limped and led the two of them into the house.
Chu Baihan didn't rush in, but looked around carefully, and he suddenly found that a row of iron clips were placed under the wall outside, if someone wanted to jump in at night, some would be able to bear it.
Li Sheng turned around and saw that the two of them did not go into the house, but looked around blindly, and his face unconsciously darkened a little.
But then he quickly changed to a smiling face, "The land of right and wrong is just some life-saving tricks." ”
Chu Baihan retracted his gaze when he heard this, with a hint of a smirk on his face, and slowly walked towards the house, Shen Qilin also saw some clues but did not pierce them.
There was a cauldron in the room where I had just entered, and some chopped firewood was piled up opposite.
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound from behind the firewood, Li Sheng's face immediately changed, and he hurriedly said, "The two of you must be tired, go back to the house and sit for a while, and rest your feet." ”
Shen Qilin secretly snorted coldly in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be casual and said, "Brother Sheng, why do I seem to hear something?"
"Hey! There's a lot of rats in this place! Maybe they touched the pyre inside. Li Sheng hurriedly snorted, put his arm around Shen Qilin's shoulders and walked to the back room.
Shen Qilin stared at the front with deep eyes, and Li Sheng, who followed in his footsteps, slowly walked forward.
Inside, where Li Sheng slept, was also very simple, with only a dilapidated wardrobe standing in the corner, and a few dilapidated iron basins on it.
A kang that falls straight to the slag takes up half of the whole room.
"Sit down first, and I'll go out and pour you a glass of water." Li Sheng smiled, and the folds at the end of his eyes were clearly visible.
"Okay, that's for you. Chu Baihan put the bag in his hand in the position beside him, and Li Sheng glanced at it slightly, before turning around and going out.
Chu Baihan watched him go out and turned his head to look at Shen Qilin beside him, only to see that he also looked thoughtful.
"What's wrong, did you find anything wrong?" Chu Baihan smiled at the corners of his mouth and asked deliberately.
Shen Qilin nodded, citing them one by one in a voice that only two people could hear.
"The shelves under the outer walls don't look like they're trying to prevent anyone from jumping in, they're like they're trying to get out of here. ”
Chu Baihan frowned, his heart was suddenly enlightened, Shen Qilin's voice was still ringing in his ears, and he listened carefully to his analysis.
"If you want to prevent people from coming in, wouldn't it be better to put it under the base of the wall, which is not easy to find. ”
Shen Qilin frowned, every time he thought about something, he was very serious.
"I really didn't expect that, I didn't feel something was right from the moment I entered the hospital. Chu Baihan said slowly, he couldn't help but admire Shen Qilin a little in his heart, it seems that outsiders can't describe him as a genius at all.
Shen Qilin really has some real skills.
