Chapter 25 Heading for District 12
Seeing that Li Xiaozhi said it so easily, the two did not struggle anymore.
Li Xiaozhi excused himself to relieve himself, so he casually found a stone gap and got in, and only after entering did he carefully take out the small purse, take out the materials inside, and then put it in a supermarket tote bag, and then came out.
The small purse is a special object rewarded by the system, and its structural principles are far beyond the explanatory power of existing technology, and he does not intend to expose it unless he is particularly trusted.
Moreover, even if Liu Yanran and the white coat are trustworthy, he won't say it, because it doesn't seem to make sense, and he can't give them the only purse, right?
"Obediently, Li Xiaozhi, you are too good! Can you pick up treasures when you go to the toilet? "The white coat has not eaten anything in the past few days since he was sick, and he was already hungry at this time, and when he saw that Li Xiaozhi was still carrying a bag of food when he came back, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Liu Yanran next to her was also quite dumbfounded.
"How can there be supermarket stuff in this foothill?" Her first instinct was to ask a question.
Li Xiaozhi is a person who doesn't like to make up nonsense, and he can't make up good excuses, so he just said perfunctorily: "Why, you still have so many questions when you pick up food, don't you want to eat, I can eat it myself if I don't eat it!" ”
"Eat, eat, why don't you eat? Hee-hee! The white coat smiled evilly, and he didn't suspect anything, he snatched the food bag, took a ham sausage, and ate it deliciously.
Liu Yanran is more thoughtful, but she will not be suspicious of Li Xiaozhi who saved her, not to mention that the weight of the other party in her heart is not ordinary.
"No, you guys eat some too!"
Li Xiaozhi and Liu Yanran squinted at him, only feeling very funny.
"Is it that delicious? Isn't it just a thickened ham sausage? Li Xiaozhi looked at the white coat with a look of hatred.
Liu Yanran said with a smile: "In this last days, it is already a very good treatment to be able to eat ham sausages, and besides, Brother Bai has been hungry for a long time, and his body is just better, and it is normal to exaggerate it." ”
The white coat looked about her age, and out of politeness she still called her big brother, she took the food bag and took out a ham sausage from it, peeled it open, and ate it in small bites.
When the white coat saw Liu Yanran talking for him, he felt an inexplicable sense of closeness in his heart, but he heard the other party say "exaggerate" at the end......, which made him suddenly a little embarrassed, didn't he just gobble it up and made the other party feel uncomfortable?
For this reason, although one ham sausage was not enough for him to stuff between his teeth, he was embarrassed to take a second one.
Li Xiaozhi squinted at this appearance, and scolded with a smile: "Why don't you eat it?" I think you can eat a cow, right? ”
The white coat glanced at Li Xiaozhi, and then looked at Liu Yanran, there were still many compressed biscuits in the food bag, but the only thing that could be regarded as meat was the last ham sausage.
He looked at Li Xiaozhi again, and finally grabbed the ham sausage while he was unprepared, and handed it to Liu Yanran.
Li Xiaozhi: ......
"You? What about mine? Li Xiaozhi asked, saying that his share was gone.
"Aren't there vegan biscuits and compressed biscuits? I see that you are strong and strong, and it is only the best thing to eat that. ”
"White coat, white coat, I think you are really amazing, Lao Tzu saved you, and you treat me like this? What you say is your way, phew...... Who is your friend? You should call me Uncle Sheng! No conscience......" Li Xiaozhi scolded with a smile, and he didn't take it seriously.
Liu Yanran watched the two of them arguing, and suddenly felt a little overwhelmed, she didn't want Li Xiaozhi to misunderstand, and it was not easy to refuse the white coat.
"I'm your uncle! Remember, my name is Bai Qingming, don't always call me a white coat. ”
"Is this important? Who cares? Li Xiaozhi glanced at Liu Yanran, and Liu Yanran shook her head with a slight flush on her cheeks, and said, "Actually, the white coat is also quite good, it looks close, and Qingming is a little dusty." ”
Liu Yanran spoke, and the white coat finally stopped arguing, and after the three of them were full, they stopped staying.
Because Li Xiaozhi was not very familiar with the terrain, in the end it was Bai Qingming who led the way in front, and Liu Yanran walked in the middle because she was a girl.
"At our current speed, it is estimated that we will be able to reach the city of District 12 at night, and it is unknown whether we can enter the city at that time." Bai Qingming walked in front and analyzed the situation.
Liu Yanran bowed her head and was silent, and Li Xiaozhi didn't have anything to say.
In this way, Bai Qingming will stop doing it, and he is planning for everyone.
"Li Xiaozhi, you are ...... talking"
"Huh?"
After Bai Qingming turned around, he originally wanted to talk about Li Xiaozhi, but Li Xiaozhi didn't look at him at all, but looked at the west in the distance.
When he followed Li Xiaozhi's gaze, he was shocked by the picture that came into view.
"Hiss......" Bai Qingming let out a sound, but he was so shocked that he couldn't even speak.
Liu Yanran also seemed to notice that something was wrong with the two, and then looked up, and then covered her mouth with her hands in shock.
In the distance, the foothills of the southwest were densely swept by strange beasts.
"What's there?" Liu Yanran said in a lost voice.
Li Xiaozhi's face was calm, and he was a little worried.
In his opinion, the world is estimated to have fallen into a very serious catastrophe, and the places where the alien beast legions walked like thousands of troops and horses have become bald land with no grass in an instant.
At this time, Li Xiaozhi discovered that the alien beasts were not like in the movies he had watched before, they not only ate people and animals, but they even swept away the branches and weeds.
If they are allowed to continue like this, it is estimated that it will not be long before the entire radius of 100 miles will become a piece of bald land.
At that point, it will really be purgatory.
"Let's hurry up, we must reach Area 12 before it gets dark, we have to remind the people over there to take precautions, although these strange beasts are not very strong individually, they can't stand the huge number, if they rush to the place where humans gather, the consequences will be unimaginable." Li Xiaozhi said in a deep voice.
Bai Qingming and Liu Yanran nodded solemnly, and then hurried to the road.
It was only after the three of them walked out of a distance that Bai Qingming seemed to remember something, and turned around and stared at Li Xiaozhi differently.
"You said that the combat power of the alien beast alone is average? Obediently, you're wrong, right? That thing almost didn't eat me last time! ”
Li Xiaozhi spread his hands and did not explain.
Liu Yanran in the middle pursed her lips, and the scene of Li Xiaozhi fighting Captain Chen and a few people came to mind, and then she spoke: "It shouldn't be difficult for him, but the two of us can't do it, so let's speed up as much as possible." ”
She didn't want to be chased by strange beasts, and she didn't want to die in their mouths.
She had just seen many humans in the army of alien beasts, but they weren't humans anymore.
"Li Xiaozhi, why do you say that human beings have become corpses? And other animals don't? Liu Yanran asked curiously.
Li Xiaozhi seemed to be stumped by a sudden question, and he hadn't thought about it at all.
Fortunately, the virtual interface of the system jumped out.
"Corpse transformation can actually occur at the end of any life, but the corpse transformation virus brought by the alien beast only attacks the stronger spirits, so most of the host adults only see human corpse muters."
Li Xiaozhi nodded, and repeated this sentence to Liu Yanran, but he just used a guessing tone.
"However, there are no absolutes, if it is those animals and plants that have mutated, the possibility of being infected with corpse transformation is greater, and the danger after corpse transformation is higher." After that, the system added a few more words, Li Xiaozhi nodded, but there were no other two at high speed.
Thirty kilometers is a long way for a trio on foot, and according to a normal person's cross-country ability, it is estimated that it will take more than ten hours.
By this calculation, they would not have been able to arrive before dark today.
"Looks like we're going to have to find a means of transportation!" Li Xiaozhi: After walking four or five kilometers, they stopped.
At this time, they climbed over the eastern foothills of the industrial park, and did not even go out of the boundary of the industrial park.
And District 12 has not even seen a shadow.
"yes, you can't go on like this!" Bai Qingming shook his head and said, he was already sweating profusely at this time.
Liu Yanran squinted at the mountains and fields here, and then said: "I know a place where there is likely to be a car, but the premise is that the alien beast did not pass by from anywhere, and the car was not driven away by the fugitives!" ”
"Where?" Bai Qingming hurriedly asked, for the only Xiaobai who had no ability, he most hoped to be able to rely on a means of transportation.
Liu Yanran stretched out her hand and pointed to a certain place under the mountain, and said, "There is a path under the woods over there, which can be opened to traffic, where did Wang Ye and I get off when they came." ”
"You mean you parked your car there?" Li Xiaozhi asked.
"Hmm!"
"The key is still with me!"
"Why don't you drive your car to the industrial park? There shouldn't have been any changes at that time, right? Li Xiaozhi asked with a frown.
Liu Yanran was silent for a while before she slowly spoke: "Actually, the mutation has already begun, but everyone doesn't know ......."
"What? It happened a long time ago? Bai Qingming said, "Why didn't anyone tell everyone?" ”
Li Xiaozhi actually had a similar guess in his heart, he knew very well that some superiors often blocked the news in order to cover up the situation, and they were confident that they could solve the problem perfectly, but this time it was obvious that they were overconfident.
A disaster of this magnitude, even if the news has been released a long time ago, it is estimated that it will be difficult for the public to accept it.
After all, how could people in the Taiping era believe in a creature that only appeared in movies?
Compared with Li Xiaozhi's calmness, Bai Qingming was a little excited, he shook his head and looked at Liu Yanran, there was a sense of anger in his heart, and at this time he felt a feeling of being deceived.
Liu Yanran sighed and said, "I also learned from the brothers of the Wang family, their family has always been a big family in this place, and the head of the Wang family is the parent official here, and they have some connections in the court, so I got the news earlier." ”
"So, the matter of evacuating civilians in the industrial park can't be remembered by the two brothers, right?" What Li Xiaozhi said was that they were referring to Wang Ye and Wang Qiang, who were already dead.
