Chapter 57: Inquiring Intent
The door of the three-story building is open, the wide frame structure is very spacious, and it is full of processed quilts, colorful quilts are stacked on top of each other, and there is a white car and a delivery truck parked on one side of the wall.
Cang Qingle was overjoyed, and couldn't help but glance at Li Dabai with satisfaction, the young man's gaze was very vicious, and he could find this relatively hidden quilt warehouse.
With a wave of her big hand, she collected the quilt inside, and since absorbing the third-level zombie crystal nucleus given by Yan Jun, her spatial ability has also broken through to the third level, and the space is more than three times larger than the original, and she doesn't worry about the quilt occupying the place.
The door of the truck was open, and the back compartment was also loaded with a lot of finished quilts, and the key was inserted in the car, and it seemed that it was about to leave.
When the end of the world came, there was a sudden heavy snowfall and the temperature plummeted, and the merchant probably planned to transport the quilt out for sale, but the appearance of zombies disrupted his plan.
Since it is necessary to transport goods, what about porters and drivers?
Just when Cang Qingle was strange, Li Dabai walked over with silent steps, "I went to the second floor to see, the door was locked, and I saw from the cat's eye that there were three corpses in the room, which should have starved to death." ”
Those three bodies were probably the merchant and the porter.
Cang Qingle looked at Li Dabai steadily, and said in his heart: What a clever and cautious young man, he looks no more than twenty, hungry and thin, and his clothes are very dirty, but the wisdom in his eyes beyond his age can't be hidden. He is good-looking, handsome, and should be a very popular calm and sunny boy before the end of the world.
While everyone was still watching on the first floor, he had already boldly checked the situation on the second floor.
"Don't delay, let's get out of here." Li Dabai seems to have long been accustomed to being scrutinized like this, and his tone of voice is neither close nor distant.
Here, with his superb skills, the bus temporarily made a car key, "Qingle, you can drive." ”
"Okay, everybody get in the car."
"Ah Liu, you drive the car, I'll drive the truck." Ou Zimu stepped on the truck.
The public transport flow is already very handy for the position of the driver in the last days, isn't it the speed of drag racing, and the car is outside in three or two clicks, ready to go.
"Sister Cang, don't we have to complete the task?" Ye Xingshu sat in the back seat of the car and looked at Cang Qingle next to him curiously.
Cang Qingle touched his head and smiled: "The task is not as important as life. ”
She is not the kind of person who does not want to die in order to complete the task, what Lei Yi said before he left, she only heard a little bit of the back, but this point has given her a great warning.
The uneasiness along the way, in Lei Yi's sentence: Go to the base chief Qiu Xian, because he wants you to die. among the validations.
Although she and Lei Yi are at odds, she also admits that Lei Yi, as a third-level ability, his strength is very strong, but such a powerful captain escaped, or by snatching other people's cars, she can imagine how dangerous this town is!
Previously, Ou Zimu also said that this is a terrifying black area, combined with all the encounters. She probably guessed something: Qiu Xian had deliberately arranged them and Lei Yi here, in order to use zombies to put the Tianxing team led by the Fire Departure Team and Lei Yi to death.
As for the reason, she has already guessed a thing or two.
"Qingle, we have been calculated." Gong Yanliu saw Cang Qingle's brows tightening from the rearview mirror, and knew that with her sensitivity to danger, she probably thought of something. He was very conflicted in his heart, Lei Yi's words had been haunting him, making him panic, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Lei Yi didn't need to lie to himself.
Cang Qingle sneered, "Calculation? It's a pity that the adults of the base don't know us very well, but it's just a third-level zombie, or my Cang Qingle's life. ”
In her previous life, she had a rough life, and she didn't have the opportunity to live to the end of the world five years later, and the zombies at that time didn't know how many times more powerful than now!
Gong Liu choked and silently tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
The two cars drove one after the other, and after driving some distance out of the town, they came across a small village, and they didn't dare to drive into it just in case, so they stopped on the road.
"Let's take a break and get something to eat." Cang Qingle took out a basket of steamed buns from the space, and each person divided two of them.
Li Dabai and Li Xiaobai brothers were hungry for several days, and when they saw the steamed buns still with steam, their saliva was loud, and Li Xiaobai took it and ate it in a big gulp.
"Slow down, be careful of choking." Li Dabai took a bite and taught his younger brother a lesson angrily.
"I'm hungry, it's all Xia Rong's bad woman, she eats the food of the five of us herself, and only gives us one loaf of bread every day." Li Xiaobai took a big bite of a bun, muttering about Xia Rong's badness.
Cang Qingle was very interested in what happened to the two brothers before, and she wanted to know how Xia Rong, a pampered base lady, could come to such a remote and dangerous place.
She shook the few remaining buns in her hand, and said to Li Xiaobai: "Xiaobai, I want to ask you something, if you say that I am satisfied, I will reward you with one." ”
Li Xiaobai looked at the bun in his hand, then at Cang Qingle's hand, and then at his brother's face, and finally didn't resist the temptation, smacked his tongue and said: "You ask, just ask, even if it is a private matter of the eight ancestors of our Bai family, I will say it." ”
Li Dabai rolled his eyes helplessly, God knows how much he wants to beat this younger brother who looks like a puppy begging for food at the moment, and he has no defense at all.
Cang Qingle smiled, "I just want to ask Xia Rong about it, why did she come to this town?" ”
"The base said that zombies appeared in this town before the end of the world, so let Xia Rong take us over to investigate the situation. But the bad woman didn't look for any clues about zombies, always doing weird things, and liked to rummage through other people's studies. Li Xiaobai immediately opened his mouth and said it, with an angry expression on his face.
Cang Qingle's eyes moved, she thought that Xia Rong should be looking for something, the appearance of zombies before the end of the world was probably just a cover.
But what is there that is worth risking Xia Rong's life all the way over?
After awarding Li Xiaobai a bun, she continued to ask: "Then what do you think is the strangest about her, she should be looking for something, what might she be looking for?" ”
Li Xiaobai happily put the bun into his arms, but he still coveted the others in Cang Qingle's hand, so he tilted his head and thought seriously, Xia Rong really seemed to be looking for something, what were you looking for? Flipping through the study, is it looking for a book? But she didn't take any books with her, scratched her head and thought about it again, and scratched her head again when she couldn't remember.
Li Dabai looked at his younger brother's dirty hair, like a bird's nest under his tickling, he couldn't stand it, frowned deeply and slapped him on the back of the head, before he spoke: "It's a musical instrument, maybe a control instrument like a flute, I saw her take an ancient sheet music." ”
"Brother, why are you beating me?" Li Xiaobai pouted dissatisfiedly.
Musical instrument? Could it be for the bone flute?! Cang Qingle was taken aback by his thoughts, Xia Rong didn't know the existence of the bone flute, how could he come to this town to find the bone flute.
