As soon as Yu Qing's figure disappeared, Gu Lian struggled to prop up the bed board and tried to sit up.

"Hey, what are you doing, in a hurry to find death?" Zhong Da couldn't spit out ivory from his mouth, and looked at Gu Lian, who was incapacitated, as if he was unable to move.

She ignored them, reached for her revolver, and reached for her revolver and magazine, stuffed them into the wheel one by one, raised her arm to aim, and quickly withdrew her arm, withdrew the bullet, and repeated the process.

Zhong Da looked at her with an unpredictable expression for a long time, and curled the corners of his lips: "What are you afraid of?"

Gu Lian finally stopped moving, because of the pulling of the injury, there were sweat drops on her head, she leaned back to the head of the bed tiredly, and looked at Zhong Da: "Before arriving at the Hongyan base, there will be a battle, right?"

Zhong Da was really a little surprised this time, and his smile widened, but it was still dark: "Why do you think so?"

Gu Lian sighed a little helplessly: "I'm not a fool, don't you tell me, won't I guess for myself?" I heard Fan Ziling and them say that the group's skeleton nest will radiate outward in a circle, since we have all decided to go back to that base, they will definitely pick a safe and harmless tangent according to the existing information, so the atmosphere has always been very relaxed, and I even have the illusion of traveling." ”

She paused, observed Zhong Da's reaction, and continued: "But what I encountered that day was obviously abnormal, first the single skeleton, and then the entire skeleton nest to encircle and suppress me, a bit of a fuss, isn't it?

"Minefield. Zhong Da smiled predictably, and there was a little sympathy in his words, "It's made by a master, interlocking, pressing step by step, it's good to feed Chen Zhizhi and others, and it's a bit like a slaughtering knife to kill chickens when used against you." ”

The contempt in his words was ...... Underwhelming.

Gu Lian rolled her eyes a few times in a row, and said angrily: "That's really unbearable!" She sighed again, "Look, this kind of broken place where birds don't lay eggs, there is such a person who forces me into a trap, how much can he look up to me? But it's okay to say that skeletons don't have class discrimination, how can people not know that I have no value at all? So the spearhead must be Bai Hengyuan and them." ”

The more Zhong Da listened, the more interesting he felt, his eyes flashed with a humble and cruel light like a mouse, and he chuckled: "Interesting...... Go on. ”

Gu Lian suddenly looked at Zhong Da with sharp eyes, her arm was raised straight, and the muzzle of the gun was firmly pointed at Zhong Da, she tilted her head with a smile and said, "Go on, what do you say? Say I think this must have something to do with the messy internal power struggle in their base, or must there be an inner ghost who can do this kind of thing? Oh yes, and ah, Sister Qing suddenly gave me such a big gift package, the inner ghost is from your team, right? Zhong Da?" The last two words, she bit very hard.

"Very interesting reasoning. Zhong Da seemed to agree with her, "Unfortunately, a complete logical chain requires conditions, evidence, reasoning processes, and results. ”

Gu Lian pursed her lips and looked at him: "I can think that Fan Ziling asked me to stay here to let me watch you and not go out?"

"Are you looking at me?" Zhong Da was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing, his eyes flashing with disdain and contempt, "Stupid girl." ”

Gu Lian nodded: "Understood." ”

It's not that she's looking at him, that's ...... He looked at her.

Do they just believe that this dead cripple is capable of protecting her, and is still willing to protect her? Gu Lian tilted her head, feeling a headache.

She put down the gun and rubbed her forehead, the mental work really didn't suit her, Zhong Da was not an internal ghost? It was just a guess for her.

But she knew that the closer she got to the Hongyan base, the closer the battle would be to them.

The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings.

Gu Lian treats herself as a pig, she doesn't get out of bed all day long, eats, sleeps, and raises the bar with Zhong Da, Xiao Zhengtai spends half a day in the infirmary, and he also applies medicine and massages to her. His massage is really comfortable, for some reason, just a few gentle pinchings can make people feel comfortable and addictive, reluctant to refuse, Gu Lian was also treated by him for a back injury anyway, and it would be hypocritical to refuse again, so he had to let him do it. What puzzled her was that she hadn't seen Bai Hengyuan all the time, which made her feel slightly uncomfortable. What are you not used to?, Gu Lian pondered.

And the 4.5mm revolver never left under the pillow for a moment.

The attack came suddenly.

In the middle of the night, in the early hours of the morning, in the dark night, Gu Lian was sleeping soundly.

The electronic clock at the head of the bed just broke into zero, jumping bright red, showing the time at this time, three o'clock.

The door was knocked twice, and Gu Lian woke up vigilantly, hearing the sound of hurried footsteps and rushing towards the door. She sped up, gritted her teeth and endured the pain in her back, grabbed her weapon, and she walked to the door, while Zhongda squeezed out in front of her, and turned around to give her a sneer.

Childish! Gu Lian despised him fiercely in her heart, and walked off the bus quickly, in the moonlight, everyone's expressions were solemn, and the neat footsteps and ground vibrations unique to the skeleton group came, Gu Lian was already familiar with it.

"How far is it to the Hongyan base?" this was Chen Zhi's voice, still cold, calm, and unwavering. Determined that Qingshan will not relax, let the wind blow from east to west, north and south, this person does have this kind of tenacity and reliability that makes people unconsciously obey.

Yu Qing's voice came, with solemnity: "Four hundred kilometers." ”

At such a close distance, something happened, and the Hongyan base could not be blamed. The previous speculation is becoming more and more true, and the three young people of the Bai family and a top master of the expedition base have been pitted by the people of the Hongyan base?

Although there had been speculation for a long time, when they saw the densely packed, mountains and valleys of skeletons, against the night, reflecting the moonlight, slowly surrounding, everyone still couldn't help but feel a chill.

"Is it better to drive back?" said Lei Xing.

Fan Ziling didn't speak, just looked behind him silently, and there was also a skeleton gradually blocking behind, preventing people from leaving.

Since someone has set up a set, they will naturally not forget to pick up the missing pieces and fill in the gaps.

As soon as the night wind blew, Gu Lian couldn't help coughing lightly, Wei Xuan said that her back and lungs were injured, and she had been recuperated for a few days, and she had improved a lot, and her actions were already okay, but she couldn't see the wind.

Bai Hengyuan looked over quickly, but didn't get closer, and asked from a distance: "How is your body?"

I haven't seen him for the past few days, Gu Lian looked up, the moonlight was blurry, and she couldn't see his expression clearly, so she could only smile and say, "It's okay." ”

She looked at the people present and moved behind Fan Ziling silently. This kind of thing, she can't intervene, so let's continue to silently shrink behind the defenders to eliminate the sense of existence.

Fan Ziling shook her head with a smile, and pressed the top of her head like a puppy with a big palm, the force was not light, she felt extremely relieved, looked up and smiled at him.

Fan Ziling knew what she was thinking at a glance, and lowered her voice to warn: "I'm not your father." ”

Gu Lian grinned and nodded. My dad is so much more handsome than you.

Bai Hengyuan glanced at Gu Lian, who was standing behind Fan Ziling without hesitation, then looked away and didn't look at it again.

The pursed lips are a little resolute.

"Is this also artificially controlled?" Gu Lian swallowed her saliva and asked. Thousands of skeletons, silent, with hollow eyes pitch black, were truly terrifying.

The wind blows through the treetops, and there is the illusion of a thousand ghosts screaming bitterly.

"If what I expected is right, I'm afraid this is a good thing that the soul master did. Yu Qing said softly.

Gu Lian's eyes shrank, and the memory of one day suddenly jumped into her mind, her eyes unconsciously looked at Zhong Da, and then quickly looked at Bai Hengyuan. However, whether it was Zhong Da or Bai Hengyuan, they were all calm, their faces remained unchanged, and they were neither weak nor moved.

What's going on?

All sorts of suspicions came to mind.

After falling into a coma, Bai Hengyuan didn't come to see her...... The concealment of Zhong Da's identity...... The actions of the inner ghost and Yu Qing......

She took a deep breath, the night chill pouring into her chest. Seeing that the others were in formation to meet the first wave of attacks from the skeletons, Gu Lian grabbed Fan Ziling and asked in a low voice, "What is a soul master?"

Fan Ziling looked down at her, with a leisurely smile on his lips, as if he hadn't seen this terrifying scene, and said unhurriedly: "A kind of ability, because the ability is too special and scarce, is called the 'Emperor of Ability', and there are only a dozen in the world. They are able to directly manipulate spirits, and any one soul master can manipulate nearly 10,000 skeletons or hundreds of humans. ”

Gu Lian lowered her head and thought for a while, and asked, "There are more than a dozen soul masters in the world, how many of them are in the Hongyan base?"

"On the bright side, there is not a single one. Fan Ziling smiled indifferently, a kind of clarity and calmness that saw through everything.

Gu Lian's heart beat faster: "That's ......"

Fan Ziling suddenly raised her fingers, shrugged lightly, and smiled mysteriously, but she couldn't say a word.

He...... Also known.

What is going on? Is the cannibalism between humans so fierce that it is necessary to use skeletons to fight? If the crisis of the end times comes from the outside, why would anyone drive skeletons to destroy the living forces?

Incomprehensible, deeply incomprehensible.

It is not only a doubt about the status quo, but also a question about this society.

Therefore, even if the number of human beings shrinks dozens of times, large areas of beautiful mountains and rivers have become empty cities, and cities that were once brightly lit have fallen into desolation, will you, the human race hundreds of years later, still choose to kill each other?

Gu Lian felt that her heart was beating faster, not because of fear, but because of anger.
