The headlights pierced the darkness and struck countless leaves, shaking everywhere. "Words, feelings, first, http://www.Klxsw.com

www.Klxsw.com [No pop-ups, the page is clean, just read the book.dashubao.cc] After the night falls, the humidity is heavier, which makes people feel an inexplicable sense of depression.

Store Manager Wan parked the car in front of the iron gate at the end of the road, which was not so much an iron gate as a folding and telescopic barricade, with diamond-shaped movable joints flashing in the headlight beam, which seemed to be newly installed. As for the stone pillars and sentry boxes on both sides, the streetlights with the characteristics of the Central Continent and the crumbling "Military Stronghold" signs, they are all surrounded by shrubs and weeds, and this is a base that has been abandoned for too long.

The sound of car horns can be especially annoying at night. Store Manager Wan honked the horn at the door, but no one came to open the door, so he seemed to be competing with the iron door, putting his hand on the steering wheel and pressing it hard, making the horn sound for a long time. This embarrassing confrontation finally ended with Store Manager Wan recognizing the facts, and he slammed the direction of the wheel: "This group of lazy bones, it must be that Li Qian has not come yet." ”

The off-road vehicle reversed direction and pressed over the shoulder of the road to bypass the iron gate from the side. The walls on both sides of the door have long since collapsed, and the iron gate is a shiny ornament, but it is indeed the style of Store Manager Wan.

He struggled to change gears, and then said, "No problem, we may not see Li Qi tonight." She must know the mountains of the underworld, the ghosts, and the world on the other side. It's just that this woman is a bit weird, I only heard about her after gambling on the Shangtang base, to be precise, I was actually forced to hear about it. ”

"Forced"

Koloy's mind was very fast: there were two possibilities for the so-called force, either the person named Li Qi also took a fancy to this abandoned base warehouse, and he was going to make a move but let Store Manager Wan take the lead; Or, the warehouse should belong to Li, "She warns you not to touch this warehouse"

"Exactly, you're such a smart girl. I have to admit that I underestimated you. Store Manager Wan drove around the door, turned his head to look in the side rearview mirror, and drove onto the main road, "Li Qian used to be the big housekeeper here, and her attendant said that I was not qualified to touch her things." ”

Entering the base, the road immediately becomes smooth and wide. The raised main pavement, side gutters to the brick shoulders, and the familiar roadside trees and street lamps are exactly like the urban streetscapes of the Central Continent. It's just that there is no one, and you can't even see the slightest anger.

Chloe looked at the main entrance to this large base, and she was suddenly attracted by the desolation of the place.

I have never seen such a doomsday relic, which can be named "The Last Day of Ignorance".

After the First Sino-Japanese War, Koloi saw a lot of apocalyptic scenes, and each region and each group of people would have different characteristics after the end of the apocalypse. The most common remnants of large financial cities, where you can see crazy graffiti and piles of wrecks of vehicles everywhere, and city dwellers are more concerned and well-informed, and they know that they are doomed before anyone else, so why not blow out the feelings that have been suppressed at work for decades. The apocalyptic relics left behind after the crazy catharsis are embarrassing, making people feel that this place has been destroyed before the end comes. In addition, there is a more pathetic kind of apocalyptic relic, such as the combination of extreme fear and great sadness, the lobby of the building is neatly lined with charred corpses, their death is not the end of the world, but despair, many people will choose to commit suicide to escape the end of the world.

The end of the Shangtang base is completely different, and there is a quiet sense of tranquility here.

The street lamps are almost not broken, the clothes are still drying on the windows of the row of slabs in the family area, and all kinds of vehicles are parked on the road. Everyone in the Shangtang base seemed to have ushered in the end unconsciously, and they still worked and lived as usual on the last day, unaware of the arrival of the end. Everything is the same now, just like those people are still with them. But as far as the eye could see, there was not a single living person. Nothing could be heard except the strange chirping of insects.

"If you're from the Central Continent, you must feel home."

"I'd be crying if I came home so lonely."

"It won't be long before it gets lively. I'm pretty sure. Store Manager Wan was full of confidence, "I invited people from the neighborhood to live here, and it will take a lot of people to clean up my treasures." You know it's a big base, a big cave base, there's everything in there. I haven't looked around it yet, it's weird inside, and I might go all the way to the underground. ”

Chloe also had a strange feeling, feeling an inexplicable coldness for the first time on an equatorial island. It's not the chill of nightfall and the rain not subsidence, but a chilling gloom. Buildings without lights, cars that haven't started for a long time, all the windows are intact, but they are all covered with dust. It was pitch black in the window, but it looked like something strange was hidden inside. Chloe looked away, not wanting to look any more, maybe it would be better to look at it during the day.

"I haven't cleaned up the place yet, and when the goods in the cave are shipped out and sold, I want to develop this place into a resort."

"Have you seen the big housekeeper?" Chloe wants to bring the conversation back to the "other world" she cares about. Since Store Manager Wan is completely unclear, it seems that finding Li Qian is the key. Since Meng Zheng has been here for so long, he must have dealt with her and always talked about something. Chloe bit her lip, for some reason she had a shallow hostility towards the Liqi she had never met.

"Haven't seen it, never have it. By the way, speaking of Lijing, there are also her followers. Do you know who I hired to stay at this base? Store Manager Wan's words always stayed on boasting about his wit and intelligence, "I'm not something that can be bluffed by a few little followers." You know, I've got a good brain. The group of Hakka people lived next to it, a little downstream. They came and blocked my door and warned me not to touch anything here. But Li Qi, who was in charge of their house, did not come. I thought to myself, this group of followers must be trying to extort money. But I didn't agree to pay for nothing, I paid the money in a daze, what if they came back after they spent it. I came up with an idea, no matter how smart you are, I am afraid you can't guess. As for me, I invite them to live in the dormitory of the base and hire them as workers, although the salary is a little higher, but I have to recruit people anyway. Not only to satisfy this group of neat followers, but also to get them on my side. Gee. ”

"Li said she would come today"

"I asked, I want to make a settlement. The warehouse is here, and it can't rot, so why not win it together. I sell my goods, and I employ all her people, and it is beneficial on both sides. But we just pressed the horn for so long and no one came to open the door for me, I don't think Li Qi came. Otherwise, now it's time to set up the pomp. They are members of the hometown association, and they are quite particular about this. ”

In Chloe's imagination, Liqi is like a big sister.

"I heard that she was at the Shangtang base during the First Sino-Japanese War. After the war, he stayed here to manage the mercenaries stationed here. ”

The car was bumped twice by a speed bump.

In the prematurely abandoned base, every facility is still in good condition, and even the sentry box is still intact, but the paint is mottled.

"Here we are."

With the announcement of the completion of the store manager, Chloe finally felt a trace of "popularity", as if she had finally swam back to the world from the Styx of the underworld, she breathed softly, and did not feel ashore until this moment, otherwise she felt that she had been floating on the river. The warm lights, the noisy noise, the clashing of porcelain bowls and the white steaming smoke make you feel at home.

Chloe has been chasing Meng for a long time, and gradually feels that he is also a native of the Central Continent.

The car door opened, and I was greeted by an eerie aroma, like sweet wine mixed with plant leaves and chicken. Following the rumbling sound, Chloe saw in the distance that several field cooking and generator vans had restarted.

There were a lot of people gathered around, and it seemed that they were still pulling, and it seemed that they were fighting in groups. Someone next to him was holding a big bottle and drinking something. With her experience as long as she had been with Meng, it was probably home-brewed rice wine in the bottle. Maybe it was the workers hired by the store manager who were drunk and fighting, and it was no wonder that no one came to open the door just now. If Li Qian was really the big housekeeper here, she would definitely not allow this kind of thing to happen, so it seems that she really didn't come. Chloe guessed that the weather was delaying her. As long as the platinum-haired war correspondent is in motion, he will never stop.

"Dead pig dog Lawan store manager." Someone yelled in the distance, and a dark shadow rushed up, "Our head of the family is the most faithful." I thought you were sincere, but I didn't expect to play us behind our backs. What do you say about this?"

The shadow roared as he tugged at the collar of the other man.

It doesn't seem to be a drunken fight. Listening to the mix of Chinese with various accents, Koloy was really a little struggling.

The person who was grabbed by the collar was embarrassed. He broke away from the other party, sorted out his blue overalls, straightened his hard hat, and walked two steps to the front of Store Manager Wan, speaking with a non-Hakka accent: "Lao Wan, if we are like this, we won't be able to luck." There is a flight coming on the weekend, our people will go back to Kuching first, when will you settle them and then come to us. ”

When the store manager Wan heard this, he was in a hurry, and quickly stopped the group of people: "Don't go, no one is allowed to go." ”

The chubby store manager, more than a dozen hired workers, and a few Hakka people, the three groups of forces began to tear each other apart and coax each other. Chloe didn't understand what they were doing, so she left the buggy and walked inside. Then the moonlight came, and she could see that there were three half-moon-shaped gates in the cave of the Shangtang base, one of which had been opened. A battery truck pulled a large string of flatbed trucks to the hole, each with crates piled up. Judging by the color and marking, it is a military item. The first flatbed truck carried goods scattered all over the floor.

Chloe walked over curiously, and it seemed that the goods were also one of the "treasures" in the cave.

She understood what the men were arguing about. As long as there is the slightest clue, it is difficult to help this smart girl: it seems that the store manager Wan hired those Hakka youths who claimed power in the cave library and temporarily appeased them; Some other workers were found from Kuching to transport the military supplies out of the cave. Now that the two groups of people are colliding together, Store Manager Wan is smart but is mistaken by being smart.

She watched the men's "negotiations" from a distance, cups and plates flew sideways, scolding constantly, and Store Manager Wan joined the melee, which was difficult to solve for a while.

At this point, Chloe felt that someone was tugging at the corner of her skirt.

She looked back and saw that it was a child with two pigtails, and she couldn't tell the difference between a boy and a girl.

"You shouldn't dig these up."

Chloe could hear that it was Hakka, she squatted down, thinking that this child should be with the adults, and she might see herself getting out of the car with Store Manager Wan, thinking that she was from Store Manager Wan's side. She smiled, "You're right, because these things are all pretty things, aren't they." She was always thinking about what kind of person Li Qi was, and whether that woman had been in contact with Meng Zheng.

"It's not."

"Oh no. Then why can't it be dug up. ”

"You opened the door and let out a ghost. Li will be unhappy. With that, the boy ran away.

Chloe was left alone, stunned.

No matter who it was or what it said, Chloe could always guess it. Only this child's words made her completely confused, and even a little inexplicably uneasy.

In the distance, the men were still fighting. Now Chloe couldn't hear the scolding or the breaking of the porcelain bowl, but felt a strange cool breeze blowing out of the cave behind him.
