Chapter 199

"Lao Xiao, it's amazing, not only did I get the car, but I also gave us a few bottles of fine wine, thank you."

Lao Liu sat in the driver's seat and drove while squeezing his eyes at Xiao Xu in the back seat and said. There were a total of four people in this car, Gu Pinyao, Yuan Qingfeng, Xiao Xu and chatter Lao Liu, Lao Liu was the driver, Yuan Qingfeng naturally sat in the co-pilot's seat, and Gu Pinyao and Xiao Xu sat in the back seat. The other five were in the car behind, including the two who had been scratched by the zombies. At this time, the group was driving two cars from the winery's parking garage to the Z City base not far from the next door.

Hearing Lao Liu's thanks to him, Xiao Xu waved his hand and said, "Hehe, what's polite, it's a gesture, besides, I still want to follow Brother Liu and you, how can I not behave well?" It's the end of the world now, and people have to have some special skills to survive, don't they? ”

"Everyone is supporting each other, saying what is not covered. But then again, we really thank you, if you hadn't gone over in time to save Ah Qing and Da Ren, and quickly eliminated the poison for them, maybe they would have died now. And the Gu family's sister, thank you very much. ”

"I just happened to be able to help, so I did it, and it was nothing. If she hadn't come out to find us, we might have either been trapped to death or starved to death there. Now that he has a much better relationship with everyone, Xiao Xu directly evoked Gu Pinyao's name, and no longer called her Miss Gu like before. But as soon as the words fell, he pointed to the roof of the car, looked at Gu Pinyao mysteriously and said, "Pinyao, are you a beast tamer?" This mutant cat doesn't look simple. It's so humane to be taken under your command, it's just cool. ”

With his eyebrows raised, Gu Pinyao understood Xiao Xu's thoughts, and only said, "Your brain is too big, it's a house cat, and your temper is very docile." ”

"Hey, sister of the Gu family, your pet's eyes and movements don't look docile at all."

It was Lao Liu who said this, compared to Xiao Xu, who returned to the team later. He was even more impressed by the mutant black cat. They were trapped in a horde of zombies. The mutant black cat slapped down a zombie with a slap, and the force value was completely off the charts, okay? Lying on the roof of their car now, thinking of a ferocious mutant beast lying on their head is no different than having two sharp blades hanging above their heads. Especially the kind of eyes that are very indifferent to Yiqiē except for Gu Pinyao. It looks cold. If it weren't for Gu Pinyao by his side along the way. The mutant black cat might just eat them as food. The black cat is a confessor. Otherwise, he wouldn't end up very well without a shield behind him.

"Brother Liu, don't worry, many mutant beasts are actually conscious, unlike zombies of the walking dead. Mutated. Most of these beasts have been modified in their bodies, and their minds have developed more maturely. There may be cases where mutant beasts attack humans in a manic manner, but you can't generalize, mutant beasts attack humans just to get food to survive. Don't you think the zombie population is always in a certain percentage? ”

Hearing the entanglement in Lao Liu's tone, Gu Pinyao knew that these people had some scruples about the mutant black cat that followed her closely, and they were afraid that the mutant beast would go crazy and hurt people. But she didn't insist on driving away the black cat, and it was also for her sake, which was a good person. Originally, Gu Pinyao was a little distressed about the black cat that was left outside the car to blow the wind, but thinking that the current situation was compelling, he had to aggrieved the mutant black cat to stay outside the car. Fortunately, the mutant black cat was not uncomfortable, and her long body was lying outside the body, and she was a little free and easy when the wind was blowing, so she was relieved.

Xiao Xu listened on the sidelines and answered, "Of course, zombies eat people, and people also want to dig the crystal nucleus in the zombie head, and the proportion of zombies is relatively stable, is there anything else?" ”

"In addition to the reason you said, there are indeed others, you must know that mutant beasts also use zombies as food, in addition to cannibalism, they also eat zombies, and even mutant plants They have no fear, and even from a certain point of view, mutant beasts are also allies of humans. To sum up, the number of zombies is almost constant, after all, for mutant beasts, those abilities hiding in the survivor base are far less easy to capture than zombies, and they are not convenient to devour, and their first choice for eating is zombies. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Xu's stomach was also a little hungry, he was intercepted from the morning when he was hijacked, and went to the winery to look for high-quality products, and then accompanied everyone to heal and breathe until the afternoon before heading towards the Z City base, not dripping water on the way, saying that he was not hungry was false. But Yuan Qingfeng and the others' car was also destroyed in the previous explosion, all the food and guns in the car were burned, and everyone was hungry until now, so he couldn't complain, so he covered his stomach, collapsed on the seat without any scruples, and said weakly, "It's less than half an hour's drive from Z City, why don't we look for food nearby?" Anyway, we have to go through a three-hour observation period before entering the base, and we might all starve to death by then. ”

Their final destination is the base in City C, but it is already getting late now, and it is obviously not safe to go through it like this, so they want to go to the nearest survivor foundation in City Z to exchange for some daily necessities and food, and then set off for City C tomorrow.

Lao Liu heard that Xiao Xu was hungry, without a trace of ridicule, he laughed a few times bluntly, and said, "Haha, hearing you say this, my stomach is also a little burning." It's good to find food, but isn't the area around the base generally cleaned? What else can we find? ”

"Look for anyone near the base, and exchange some food with them. I've been staying at the Z City base from time to time, and I'm still familiar with it. Compared with the base established in the provincial capital, the self-sufficiency of the people in the Z city base is stronger. Many wood-based and water-based adepts choose to stay together, one is responsible for catalyzing seeds, and the other is responsible for cultivating seedlings and establishing small plantations, so that they can not only solve their own livelihoods, but also sell the cultivated vegetables and fruits. Those with strong attack are responsible for protecting them, earning crystal nuclei and buying food from wood-based and water-based abilities. Many people felt that the rent charged by the base was too expensive, so they lived not far from the base, to be honest, they were a group of brave people, and no one dared to bully, but it was convenient for passers-by to buy some food from them. ”

Yuan Qingfeng, who had been sitting in the co-pilot's seat without speaking and making wallflowers, heard this, and his eyes lit up. "I've never heard of this, and the people at the Z City base are quite good at thinking about it." ”

"It may have something to do with occupation, but agriculture in Z has always been developed, with more than half of the city's population being farmers, and a large part of the survivors are working at home, so it is not surprising that the plantation industry chain has emerged. After all, no matter what, human survival will always be so strong. ”

"That's true."

Just as Xiao Xu and Yuan Qingfeng were chatting with some interest, suddenly Lao Liu, who was in the driver's seat, said, "There seem to be a lot of zombies blocking the highway in front." There are also many cars parked in the middle. We may not be able to get by. ”

Now they are at a fork in the road, listening to Lao Liu's words, everyone looks at each other, indeed. Directly in front of the highway. Dozens of densely packed vehicles were parked. The road is very tightly blocked, and there are one or two hundred zombies roaming around these abandoned vehicles. It was supposed to be the survivors who were going to rush to the base in Z City, but these people didn't make it past the Grim Reaper's scythe and eventually became food for the zombies. And now, as if they could smell the smell of people coming from not far away, the group of aimless zombies rushed towards Gu Pinyao and the others as if they had suddenly been wound up.

"What do you think?" Yuan Qingfeng still had a breezy appearance, looked at the others around him unpredictably, and asked.

"Now everyone's only guns and ammunition are estimated to not last long, and they have been mentally attacked before, so it is not appropriate to work hard today, just get off the highway and take another road." When he said this, Gu Pinyao looked at the locator in his hand and finally said.

"We didn't encounter these when we came before, and if you get off the highway, the Gu family girl knows the way?"

"This is the locator I picked up halfway, but it can be used to guide the way, what do you think? This time, we left the brewery without any danger, but I always felt that things were not so simple, and the person behind the control of everyone had not yet shown up, and I wanted to preserve everyone's combat power as much as possible. ”

Gu Pinyao explained, indeed, for this escape, she always felt that there was a follow-up to the matter. After all, she had scavenged all the purified crystal nuclei in the underground room, and blew up the basement, so she didn't dare to stay any longer, for fear of being blocked by the mysterious people who arrived later, so now she could only try to be on guard.

After listening to her words, everyone agreed in their hearts, and under Yuan Qingfeng's instructions, everyone drove the car towards another intersection that led to the highway. The zombies who were not flexible in their movements naturally failed to catch up, but let everyone breathe. However, the original journey of only half an hour was stretched to more than an hour, and the time for everyone to eat was delayed again, and Xiao Xu could only look at the sky and draw cakes to satisfy his hunger.

"Eh, there's smoke in front, it can't be someone living there, right?"

Xiao Xu, who was looking at the sky boringly, suddenly saw that there seemed to be smoke in the distance, thinking that it might be someone in the jungle, his saliva began to overflow, and he said to everyone urgently.

"Talk, talk, what rain are you?" Dodging the symbol squirting out of Xiao Xu's mouth, Gu Pinyao couldn't help but complain, but then she also let go of her spiritual power and probed out. Compared with her when she first arrived at this period, now Gu Pinyao's spiritual power can be released, and she is slowly recovering her previous strength, which also makes her a lot happier.

Finding that Xiao Xu was not mistaken, there was a house over there, and it was a village, Gu Pinyao looked at Yuan Qingfeng Dao of the co-pilot, "There is a village in front, it should indeed be cooking, but it is a little weird in the wilderness." ”

Regardless of why Gu Pinyao knew about the situation in the distance, Yuan Qingfeng pondered for a while and said, "Let's go and see, if there is danger, just leave as soon as possible." ”

After all, there are still two people in his team who were scratched by zombies, although the ability can resist some zombie viruses, but after all, some of the body functions will be destroyed, and now the two people need food and rest the most, although he looks cold, but he is really warm to his own people, this is Gu Pinyao's new understanding of Yuan Qingfeng.

"Okay." Lao Liu nodded, then turned on the walkie-talkie, told the people behind him about his boss's arrangement, asked them to follow closely, and stared at the wisp of smoke and galloped away.

Because that place deviated from the main road, now Lao Liu had already driven the car on the dirt road in the countryside, and there were dead branches scraping over at any time, so Gu Pinyao let the mutant black cat get out of the car and walk by himself, so as not to be scratched. However, after the mutant black cat got out of the car, it was faster than the off-road vehicle, and soon disappeared into the woods. Seeing that the black cat was far away, Gu Pinyao was not in a hurry, the mountains and forests were the most familiar places for mutant black cats, and now that the black cat had devoured countless crystal nuclei, it had already been promoted to become a fourth-order mutant beast, and it was rare to encounter opponents at this stage, so she was not worried about something wrong with the black cat.

"Eh, your pet ......" Xiao Xu and the others naturally found that the black cat had disappeared, so they looked at Gu Pinyao in wonder.

But he heard Gu Pinyao say, "I'll let it explore the way, don't worry." ”

"Gu Meinu, in fact, I'm not worried about it, I just think that you didn't give instructions and it did it so obediently, how did you domesticate it? Do you want to teach me? I'd love to have a domineering mutant beast. ”

To tell the truth, Xiao Xu's appearance is obviously quite stable and serious, and as soon as he opens his mouth, he will destroy his temperament, like an old fritter, and he looks very bad, Gu Pinyao just gave him a roll of his eyes when he heard it, and then looked at Yuan Qingfeng and said, "Speaking of which, Mr. Yuan should know someone who can domesticate mutant beasts, right?" ”

Because at the beginning, when Yuan Qingfeng saw the mutant black cat listening to her like this, he was not as surprised as others, and even had a commonplace feeling, so Gu Pinyao guessed that among the families that Yuan Qingfeng knew, there were people who could really tame beasts, so he asked.

Yuan Qingfeng listened, raised his head and said, "It is true that there are animal taming families, but they can't be friends with nobility and coldness, and I have only met them once or twice." Before the end of the world, they liked to be with the cranes, flaunting themselves to be out of the world, and seeking the Tao wholeheartedly, after the end of the world, I heard that they had mastered the method of domesticating mutant beasts, but I was away from home for a long time, and I didn't know very well. ”

Gu Pinyao and the others knew that Yuan Qingfeng was different before, so he didn't hide anything at the moment, and what he could say was naturally said. After listening to Yuan Qingfeng, everyone in the car laughed unconsciously. Speaking of which, Yuan Qingfeng is really like that kind of classical beautiful man, living beautifully in the painting, with the nobility of a son of a family, and the coldness of a cultivator, I didn't expect him to be able to say this kind of thing in a down-to-earth manner, everyone felt a little incredible.

"Why, you have a grudge against them?"

"Oh, no, it's just that when I was a child, I was almost snatched home by their youngest daughter to be a daughter-in-law."

“……”

Gu Pinyao and the others suddenly fell silent, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh. However, everyone has their own secrets, Yuan Qingfeng is from an extraordinary background, and everyone knows the scale, so they don't ask more questions.

"Look, there's a village, chief." (To be continued......)
