86_86324The city in front of me, judging from the scale of the visual observation, is much larger than that of Foreman Li and them. In the distance, tall buildings continue to line the sky, or several buildings emerge from a certain hill.

There is nothing to be excited about, the large area of the city shows that there was a large population here before, and naturally, there are many dead people in the city now. Maybe the wind is going against us right now, so the rancid smell I smell isn't very strong, and it's a daily average.

We are now on a national highway halfway up the mountain. Descending the ridgeline on my left, I will see a green river separating the two banks. On this river, there is a hydropower station. The hydropower plant is definitely out of service, but you can still hear the roar of the water as it flows down the dam.

Looking down from the mountainside, there are still many fields and forests in our vicinity, and most of the buildings we see are low and sparse. The top of many houses is blue, which should be a factory building. It seems that this is only the edge of the city, the core of the city, and there is still some distance to go.

"If you follow the national highway, you won't be able to enter the city." Uncle Wang took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Think about going into the city or not." ”

According to Uncle Wang, this national highway has been extended into the mountains in the distance, as if a parallel line has been drawn on the edge of the city, and it cannot be connected to the city at all.

"Come in, why don't you go in?" Wu Linyu asked rhetorically, "I haven't even found a satisfactory off-road vehicle, so I have to go into the city to find it." ”

"You have the final say." Chen Lishan interjected. She was standing on the guardrail and looking out over the city.

Chen Lishan's body balance is very good, and she can stand firm on the iron guardrail. "When I used to do my internship, I came here for a while, and it's pretty good," she says. ”

"I've been here too." Zhou Zhihong echoed.

"Do I need an internship to be a teacher in an elementary school?" Wu Linyu quipped.

"Or else?" Chen Lishan said and jumped off the guardrail, "Do you think those children are so easy to manage?" ”

"Anyway, when I was in elementary school, I didn't understand anything, and I did whatever the teacher told me to do." Wu Linyu helped Chen Lishan and said.

Chen Lishan took off her small leather backpack and pulled out a white mirrorless camera from inside. After a few seconds of boot time, Chen Lishan raised the camera in front of her eyes and pointed it at the city she had just overlooked, wanting to capture the city scene in front of her. She held the camera with both hands, put her right eye in front of the lens, and closed her left eye slightly, and slowly picked up Wu Linyu's words: "Then it would be good if you were my student, I like a student like you." ”

The low and cold temperature made my body temperature drop back quickly. So I asked Zhou Zhihong to put on his clothes, and then put on Wu Linyu's camouflage bag, ready to continue walking. In this kind of day, only walking is the warmest.

The sound of focusing ticks sounded, followed by a few shutter clicks. Chen Lishan put down the camera and admired the image on the display with satisfaction. Wu Linyu and Zhou Zhihong also leaned over curiously to take a look.

Duan Kezheng sat on the iron guardrail, looking down at the dam of the hydropower station without saying a word. I walked over and patted her, shaking Duan Ke's head in shock.

"What are you looking at, little girl?" I followed her gaze to the hydropower station and asked her.

Duan Ke held his forehead and said, "No, I was fascinated by the sound of water." ”

"Oh," I said, touching her shoulder and nodding, "then let's go when we've heard enough." ”

"Gone, gone!" I turned to the crowd again, "If you don't find a car, you're going to crush me with this bag on your back." ”

"Okay." Chen Lishan put the camera back in her backpack and said.

"Why don't you let me do it myself." Wu Linyu said a little embarrassed.

Zhou Zhihong also straightened up and said, "It's okay to let me come, you can carry my bag." ”

"Alright, don't do it." I shook my head at Wu Linyu and said, "If this bag is pressed on your back, the wound on your leg will probably have to be cracked open." ”

Wu Linyu said with a straight face: "That's not going to happen, it's already healed." ”

It doesn't matter if you heal or not, although I complain, I never thought of putting down the big bag on my back. It's tiring, but I shouldn't have the slightest excuse to help the wounded in the team.

I looked at Zhou Zhihong again, and he straightened his back, as if he still had endless strength in his body. I looked at the travel bag on his back and said, "You want to change it with me?" Forget it, the contents of your bag aren't much lighter. ”

"Let's go, only by finding the car is our only way out." I joked to them.

Uncle Wang was carrying the gun alone and had already taken several steps. I took Duan Ke and walked to the front of the national highway.

The number of houses and farmland on both sides of the national highway has gradually increased. It's finally a bit of a fast-forward to the city. However, no matter how much modern buildings we saw, we still couldn't find a car that could carry the six of us. In fact, on the way, we encountered three buses parked on the side of the road, but all three buses were full of dead people. If the six of us put our minds to it, we can do it if we want to clean up a passenger car. But that will take a lot of time, so forget about it.

Looking at the somewhat empty national highway, I remembered what I had seen on the highway before. So I assumed in my mind that it would be great if I could move some of the cars in the long queue of cars on the highway to the national highway, so that the problem of uneven distribution of resources in the last days could be solved.

Staring at the road, thinking about it, Zhou Zhihong next to him suddenly exclaimed, saying that there was a car. I hurriedly looked up and saw that there was a shop called "Renyi Non-staple Food" in front of me. On the cement dam in front of the shop, there was indeed a car parked.

However, the car only has three tires. It's a three-wheeled motorcycle.

I was a little disappointed to see that it was a crappy three-wheeled motorcycle. Uncle Wang's eyes lit up, and he walked quickly towards the three-wheeled motorcycle. Following Uncle Wang up to the cement dam, I saw the details of the three-wheeled motorcycle. To be precise, it should be a three-wheeled truck, as the motorcycle has a cargo box in the back. The cargo box is painted with blue paint, the paint has fallen off a lot, and there are quite a few scratches, and it looks like the car is some years old.

Inside the cargo box, there are several boxes of "Master Kong" instant noodles. Strangely, there were three buckets of eaten instant noodles under the tricycle, and one bucket was knocked over to the ground and a soup came out. Next to the bucket, there was a pile of burned black ashes, and there were one or two cigarette butts in the ashes. Looking at the situation in the noodle bucket, it should have been eaten not long ago, because the noodle soup inside has not yet solidified.

Who will eat it?

It immediately occurred to me that it must have been those two people from last night. They must have found a place to spend the night last night, and then continued on their way at dawn, and when they passed by a few hours ago, they found a three-wheeled motorcycle full of Master Kong, so they stopped for a full meal. I looked around the road, and I couldn't see their shadows, so I guess I had gone far. I don't know if I'll see them in the city.

Zhou Zhihong also noticed that something was wrong with the noodle bucket, he squatted down, stirred the noodle soup with the fork in the noodle bucket and said, "Hey, why do I feel that this instant noodle has just been eaten?" Could it be that there is someone in this vicinity? ”

"It's the leftovers of yesterday's pair of black and white impermanence brothers." I replied to him, and then looked at Uncle Wang.

Uncle Wang didn't stay by the cargo box for long, and he didn't bother to care who ate the leftovers of the buckets of noodles, he walked to the front of the car leader, removed the towels piled up on the dashboard, and carefully checked the situation above, probably to see if he could drive the three-wheeled motorcycle away.

"Don't mess around, don't you feel disgusting?" Duan Ke lowered his head, patted Zhou Zhihong's backpack and frowned.

Wu Linyu looked at the three-wheeled motorcycle from beginning to end, he tapped the cargo box of the motorcycle with his fingers, and said, "This line may be able to help us." ”

"Hmm." Uncle Wang raised his head and replied, then looked at the half-open "Renyi Non-staple Food" shop.

A figure sits next to a cigarette container made of glass and aluminum. Needless to say, just by the smell of rancid smell that there must be a dead man sitting there.

"You're going to drive this car?" I asked Uncle Wang, "Who can drive a motorcycle?" ”

Uncle Wang retracted his gaze, turned to me and said, "I will." ”

"Actually, I do, too, this thing is like a bicycle." Wu Linyu echoed.

"Then," I glanced at Wu Linyu and said, "even if you can drive, you don't have car keys." ”

"Wait," Uncle Wang said as he walked towards the shop, "I'll look for it and see if there's anything on that person." ”

Wu Linyu jumped on one leg and sat directly on the cargo box of the three-wheeled motorcycle, and he was not afraid of the iron bar of the cargo box holding his buttocks. Zhou Zhihong and Duan Ke also leaned against the cargo box of the tricycle, and only Chen Lishan and I were standing in place.

Uncle Wang pushed open the other door of the grocery store, walked in, walked around the container, and stood in front of the corpse. Even though he had his back to us, I could still see every step of his movements.

Uncle Wang's hand wandered on the upper body of the corpse for a while, and he must have been touching his pocket. But apparently there was no one in his pocket, and Uncle Wang stretched his hand down again. He put his hands on the corpse's waist and ran it around. Sure enough, Uncle Wang found something and took something out of the corpse's waist. Listen to the sound, it should be a bunch of keys.

Uncle Wang picked up the key, looked at it in his hand for a while, and then walked out. This whole set of movements is skillful and capable, never dragging mud and water, and I don't know how Uncle Wang has trained his courage to ignore the corpse and the smell in front of him. It may be that Uncle Wang is short-sighted, and he holds his breath for a long time.

After Uncle Wang came out with the set of keys, he picked one in his hand, and then selected one of them and inserted it into the lock hole of the motorcycle. Turn the key and the engine of the three-wheeled motorcycle starts. There was a roar, and I was a little excited to hear it.

"I can go," Uncle Wang nodded in satisfaction, then pointed to the box and said, "Sort out all the things inside, sort them out and leave." ”

Okay, although it's a bit cold to go into the city on a motorcycle, as long as you can travel, it's fine, and no one knows anyway.

A few minutes later, we removed the Master Kong instant noodles in the container, and Zhou Zhihong did not forget to stuff a few buckets into the bag. After the container was cleared, the five people sat in the container.

Although it was a little crowded, a few people were huddled together, and it was quite warm.

Uncle Wang put on the gloves hanging on the faucet, and after some skillful operation, he turned the corner and drove out of the three-wheeled motorcycle
