Chapter 10: Into the City
There are large and small, good and bad cars, parked at the entrance of the base. There were blood stains left by the battle on the cars, but people seemed to be in a good mood, at least at the entrance of the base, as long as they entered, it was basically safe.
In the crowd, it is rare to see the elderly or children of a few years old, and the vast majority of them are young people, and it is even more difficult for vulnerable groups such as children and the elderly to survive in the last days.
Among them, you can also see a lot of thin women, most of them rely on the men around them, women without special abilities are not much different from the elderly and children, if you want to survive, you have to find a way. It's just that few people think of becoming stronger themselves, instead of relying on men.
Li Zinian does not discriminate against this kind of person, who doesn't want to live? It's just that the way of choosing is different, everyone has her own way of living.
"I went to inquire, and when I entered the base, the supernatural person needed to pay three catties of food, and the ordinary people needed to pay five catties of food. It can be exchanged for cookies and the like, and today we are going to stay out for the night now. I'll have to quarantine again after entering the city tomorrow, and that's it. Qin Ren had a good deal with the guards at the gate and heard some news.
Hearing the five catties of food for ordinary people, You Hang was very puzzled, ordinary people were much weaker than those with special abilities, but they had to pay more food to enter the city. "How can ordinary people pay more than the Adept?"
"No way, the gatekeeper said, and now the base is arranged like this. Although Qin Ren also felt that it was very inhumane for the base to do this, the status quo was not something they could change.
There are also three ordinary people in the team, plus the supernatural ones, a total of 32 catties of food, which is already a large expense in the last days. For Li Zinian, their team is also two-thirds of the belongings.
A few ordinary people in the team were very uneasy after hearing this, afraid that the team would still be outside the city gate. Feng Ting was also very unhappy, the food she had worked so hard to find was almost made by others. snorted lightly and looked at Jiang Hanruo beside him with disgust.
Jiang Hanruo, who couldn't get over it in his heart, was so frightened by Feng Ting's eyes that he didn't dare to raise his head.
Feng Ting looked at Jiang Hanruo, who looked like a turtle with a shrunken head, very bored, turned around and walked to the side.
The team was going to spend the night outside the city today, because it was only one night, so there was no tent pitched. Just choose a corner where no one is around, park the car, and burn a fire next to it, like the people around you.
Lin Ling and Qin Ren continued to run around to inquire about the news with the people around them, and Li Dong was sent by You Hang to take people to find wood, and there was a lot of burning in one night. Li Zinian and You Hang stayed by the car.
Li Zinian pulled out the knife and gently wiped the traces left by the previous battle. "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Did you see it?" You Hang didn't expect Li Zinian to see that he was in trouble.
Li Zinian carefully rubbed the sword, blowing from time to time to make the knife brighter. After getting it done, he replied, "Well, you're doing it obviously." ”
Looking at You Hang, he actually guessed what he was going to say, which was nothing more than to officially register the team of strangers after entering the city. I just hope she's on board.
"When I enter the city, I will officially register for the team. We hope you'll join us. Sure enough, it was the same as Li Zinian.
"Good. "It's cheap to send it to the door, don't want it in vain! No matter how bad it is in the future, it will be the veteran of the fifth-ranked team, and Li Zinian can't ask for this.
I thought I would have to persuade him, but I didn't expect Li Zinian to agree so readily, and You Hang was more confident in his ability to see people.
briefly discussed the name of the team and other matters with Li Zinian, and before I knew it, more than an hour had passed. The people who went out to run errands are back, and it is getting dark, ready to start dinner.
Today's dinner is even simpler, just boiling a packet of instant noodle seasoning with clear soup as soup, and then eating biscuits with this soup. This kind of food is not good, it is not bad, it is just at the middle level.
"Hey, why hasn't Feng Ting come back yet?" Li Dong looked around and didn't see any trace of Feng Ting, so he didn't know where he had gone.
When Lin Ling and Qin Ren heard Li Dong's inquiry, they were obviously stunned for a moment, "Leave her alone, she knows to come back." Qin Ren replied.
"Oh, then I'll keep it for her. Li Dong put Feng Ting's share aside.
After dinner, Feng Ting came back with a face full of spring breeze, and her face was flushed. Li Zinian's eyes flashed, and he understood in his heart.
"I've left you something to eat. When Li Dong saw Feng Ting coming back, he didn't pay much attention, but just served her the food.
Feng Ting had already had a sumptuous dinner over there just now, how could she still look at the team's humble meal. "No need, I've been able to eat it, I'm here to get something. I've agreed to join someone else's team. ”
"What? No, you ......" Li Dong was interrupted before he could say something.
"Don't talk about it, I'm already on a stronger team, let's go higher! "Feng Ting looks down on the previous team now, since they don't reuse her, there will naturally be a team that can see her shining points, especially the captain of that team......
You Hang instructed Li Zinian to take out the things and distribute them to Feng Ting according to their portions, without saying a word, Feng Ting didn't expect You Hang's attitude, she thought she would beg her to stay, but she didn't expect to let her go directly. The indignant Feng Ting was going to go back and cry again, and asked the people over there to help her teach You Hang and the gang a good lesson.
"Bah, hum, I don't sleep out of anything. Qin Ren couldn't get used to Feng Ting's style, he and Lin Ling had seen Feng Ting and a man rolling in the bushes before, but he didn't expect that it might be a team leader, and he felt disgusted when he saw her look down on people.
"Leave her alone, it's okay to leave, that kind of person stays and drags us back, let's let her harm others. Regarding Feng Ting's departure, You Hang felt that the advantages outweighed the disadvantages, she and Li Zinian did not deal with each other, and Li Zinian was one top ten Feng Ting, and it was better to leave.
When he slept at night, Qin Ren was still cursing Feng Ting, chattering, looking very cautious.
"Ah~ help. ”
In the middle of the night, cries for help were heard from the crowd.
"What's wrong?" Lin Ling hadn't been asleep for long before he was woken up, and he was still in a daze.
"It's okay, someone mutated and was solved. Keep sleeping!" explained Qin Ren, who was keeping vigil.
Falling down, Lin Ling continued to fall asleep. Li Zi couldn't sleep anymore because of this, so he had to close his eyes and silently summarize the experience of the previous battle in his heart.
As soon as the morning is early, most of the people get up, and some people start lining up before dawn.
Li Zinian did the same, they loaded some things into the space, the car couldn't be brought into the base, and several people carried their own things.
The queue was very long, and Feng Ting could be seen leaning on a fairly handsome man with a smile on her face.
The gates were wide open, and someone began to organize an entry into the city, and the progress of the procession was slow. From time to time, I will meet those people who do not have enough food at the door and beg bitterly, although I can't bear it, but Li Zinian they are not a virgin, food is the most important thing in the last days, and few people are willing to give food to useless people in vain.
Looking at the people who were beaten away at the door, crying and screaming, some people couldn't bear to look, some people were equally worried, but more were indifferent.
"Men on the left and women on the right, go in. ”
With better food, a team of men and horses is separated. Li Zinian and the three girls came to a small room, and there were two women in white coats.
"Take off all your clothes, strip naked, leave no one, we have to check if there are any wounds, don't move fast from mother-in-law. "The temperament of the person in the white coat is not good, but it should be difficult to do this kind of thing every day and think about it.
Li Zinian took off directly with an expressionless face, Lin Ling and Jiang Hanruo were still a little embarrassed, but they didn't expect Li Zinian to take off directly, so they followed.
For the cooperation of the three of them, the white coat was also relieved. After careful inspection, they were allowed to enter another room.
There are staff in the house, so give them the form to fill out. Simply fill it out and be taken to a room where you will stay for 24 hours.
However, Li Zinian and their luck were not very good, and when they entered the house, they saw that Feng Ting was also inside.
Seeing Li Zinian and others coming in, Feng Ting Nunu mouthed and signaled to the girl next to her. "That's them. ”
The girl and Feng Ting seem to have a good relationship, at least they talk and laugh, which is different from the previous in the team.
The two chatted about previous topics from time to time, as well as thoughts about the end times, and deliberately sarcastically mocked Li Zinian and the others.
Li Zinian didn't want to deal with it at all, Lin Ling was heartbroken that his former teammates had become like this, so he didn't care about it, but Jiang Hanruo didn't dare.
The other people in the room also knew how to protect themselves and were reluctant to speak.
In Feng Ting's opinion, Li Zinian didn't speak, because she was afraid. Knowing that she joined the team of the strong, she didn't dare to offend her, so her choice was correct before. It's still just the beginning, and when you enter the city later, you will have good fruits to eat, Feng Ting's smug expression on her face was slightly hideous.
At night, there are still people next door who have escaped the wound examination, and come in to the last level, but mutate at night. After a period of panic, the silence of the night was restored, no one cared about this, and the most worthless thing in the last days was human life.
"Get up, get up, it's time, hurry up and pack your things and get out. I'm going to have the next group of people here soon. "As soon as the time came in the morning, the housekeeper urged him to leave.
There was nothing to pack, so I picked up my backpack and walked out with the crowd.
The difference between the inside and the outside is still quite big, and the terrain inside the city is quite open, and at first glance, it is a base built directly around the previous stadium.
Facing it was a huge open-air stadium with countless tents on it, and behind the stadium were buildings, which could be seen to be in the pre-apocalyptic style, although there were some broken buildings, but it was not bad.
Finally, enter the base.
