Chapter 32: Slums

"Hurry up and report it to the above, otherwise we won't be able to eat and walk around!"

Lao Kong got up from the ground, a lot of sweat on his head, and he didn't have time to wipe it, so he hurriedly went to inform the patrol.

"Lao Kong, I didn't say you, isn't your little brother not very good at eye?"

Zhang Mo only had a pair of pants left on his body, and he didn't have any muscles, like a white chicken, he threw a gun directly at Lao Kong, and then looked at the person in charge of the body search and said with a smile: "This is the real thing you said?" ”

"You idiot! Sincerely, isn't it a shame to look at labor and management? ”

After taking the gun, even if you haven't touched it, you can really feel that something is wrong with this thing, how can there be a gun case made of plastic? Lao Kong grabbed the man and slapped him in the face a few times, and the man didn't dare to resist at all.

"Why are you still watching? Get out of the way when the stuff is handed in! Made. ”

After glancing at it, this thing was still gloating there, as if he was deliberately watching the excitement here, and Lao Kong immediately became angry.

"No, I'm asking if you still need to hand in half of this gun?"

"Don't, don't, hurry up, labor and management will get angry when they see you!"

"Okay."

Everyone got dressed and walked to the city, and the bags on their backs were half lighter, and the walk was much easier.

"Oh no, I forgot to ask about my parents!"

didn't go far, the fat man patted his head and suddenly remembered, turned around and went to find the old Kong just now, Zhou Hao also remembered that he almost delayed the business just now.

"Why did you come back from your horse?"

Lao Kong saw these people go and return, but he was helpless in his heart, and his face looked like he had eaten a dead fly.

The fat man didn't pay attention, and hurriedly asked anxiously: "Brother Kong, let me inquire if there are two people here, Wang Jianjun and Zhang Chengfeng." ”

Lao Kong himself was very unhappy with this group of people, and he was worried that he had no place to be angry, so the fat man came over, and just about to scold, Zhou Hao, who was a ghost, immediately stuffed a trumpet ham into his arms.

"Cousin, it's okay."

Zhou Hao smiled, the old face did not change, swallowed the words he was about to say, secretly hid the ham in his clothes, tidied it up, and whispered to the fat man:

"Go inside, inside the drawer on the left hand side of the table is the person who entered the city to register the record, the speed is quick, don't let people find out."

Without delaying time at all, the fat man quickly found the registration booklet, there were several copies in total, and the woman who helped them register next to him was also in cahoots with Lao Kong, pretending not to see it.

"Found it!"

After a while, the fat man really found the names of his parents, and the register showed that the two of them entered the city on October 13, that is, not long after the disaster, and it showed that they had handed in a lot of food, and it should not be much of a problem to barely eat enough.

"Great, Haozi, my dad and they must be fine!"

The fat man jumped up happily and shouted at Zhou Hao, and as soon as Zhou Hao wanted to reply to him, a roar like a duck's throat came in.

"I'm going to die! What are you yelling about? ”

Lao Kong was angry and angry, and he had already said that the movement was smaller, and he wondered if this group of people was deliberately messing with him.

"Shh

Zhou Hao raised a finger to remind, the fat man nodded, and lightly put the booklet back in its place, and then ran out in a few steps.

Now that they heard the news, everyone walked towards the city, and only then did they have a clearer understanding of this Iron Mountain City.

Don't look at the outside is very magnificent, but inside it is very similar to the Hoover Cottage in the middle school history textbook, densely packed with houses made of iron planks and bricks, plus a blanket barely enough to live in, only some houses in the distance, are also made of wooden planks to form a honeycomb coal-like little man, to squeeze more and more crowded.

The people sitting on the side of the road all looked lifeless, the men played poker around, rolled the dice, and played happily, the women were all dressed in tatters, their hair was scattered like beggars, and the better conditions were also unkempt, and the whole gathering place was extremely chaotic.

"What's the matter with those people who were stopped out?"

Zhou Hao asked in confusion at Zhang Mo beside him, there is a small area surrounded by a large iron fence in the right corner of the city gate, and the only iron gate is also a big lock, and there are seven or eight people sitting scattered inside, some men and women, old and young.

"Of course it's the new quarantine, we call it a prison."

Zhang Mo explained that he was angry when he mentioned this, "This dog forced me to be greedy for a pack of China, not to mention, and asked me for a gold chain!" Otherwise, you newcomers will have to stay there until tomorrow morning to make sure you're not infected with the living corpse virus, and if you stay inside, then you'll be fine, not to mention the wind and cold, maybe there will be corpses in the middle of the night to bite your neck. ”

Speaking of this, he paused and looked at Zhou Hao suspiciously, "You don't plan to return my gold chain, do you?" ”

"How is that possible?"

Zhou Hao said as he spoke, took out a pack of Yellow Crane Tower from his arms and handed it to Zhang Mo, "This pack of cigarettes will reach your China." ”

“… Thank you so much for stepping on the horse, what about the chain? ”

"Well..."

Zhou Hao smiled awkwardly, took two steps back, and grabbed his hand.

"You still want to pay your bills?"

"What do you think I'm for?"

Zhou Hao frowned and pushed Zhang Mo away, and said righteously: "Labor and management are bitten to death by living corpses, jump down from here, drink dichlorvos and die, I won't rely on you for a cent!" But..."

"Don't give me this set, hurry up, exchange it for something of equivalent value without a chain."

Zhang Mo said angrily, obviously not believing what Zhou Hao said, who knew that Zhou Hao was waiting for this sentence, and said happily:

"I'm going to have to have a good deal with you when you say that, tell me for yourself, what's the most important thing right now?"

"Food and water, of course."

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhang Mo blurted out, but he didn't know that he had fallen into Zhou Hao's language trap.

"Isn't that right?"

Zhou Hao smiled, "Now that it's like this, what do you think is the use of gold, silver and jewelry?" Don't be in a hurry to refute it, although it is said that the jewelry of the prosperous times and the gold of the troubled times, but if you think about it, the whole world has fallen, this is no longer the troubled times, this is the end of the world, there is no one in ten human beings, and the life cannot be saved, can you give it a gold chain when the living corpse eats you? ”

was about to take out a bag of China from his pocket, and suddenly remembered that what he gave Zhang Mo was only a bag of Yellow Crane Tower, Zhou Hao had no choice but to take his hand back, lest Zhang Mo continue to scold him.

"Besides, I'm not a landlord and an old man, how tight the food is now, you must also know, look at how many of these people can eat enough? I'll tell you the truth, when we escaped from the city, we found so many gold jewelry, and we didn't take a single one, why? That's a heavy thing. ”

"So brother."

Zhou Hao patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "What are your chains and watches, take advantage of the stupid ones now, change them early and earn them early." ”

"Really? You're not fooling me, are you? ”

Zhang Mo still didn't believe it, this Zhou Hao looked like Li Yunlong in the bright sword now, and he spoke in a set, obviously trying to deceive him about the equipment of that battalion.

"Don't worry."

Zhou Hao patted his chest, "I vouch for my personality." ”

Saying that, Zhou Hao opened his schoolbag and took out a bottle of water and a bag of noodles, "How about my bag of Master Zhang's instant noodles and Cestbon mineral water?" Before the end of the day, this is a famous brand, just think I changed your gold chain, in fact, I have also lost, but look at you are very sincere, I will definitely knock a bamboo pole on others, come and I will help you install it, don't be seen by others. ”

"Are you a policeman or a pixiu, why can't you only enter but not leave?"

Zhang Mo was about to cry, he was deceived by this dog day and pretended to be like a big loss, but he couldn't help it, he thought he was shameless enough, but he didn't expect that there were people outside the people and mountains outside the mountains, and this person's face has surpassed the laws of physics.

Even so, as the saying goes, help people to the end, no matter how Zhou Hao cheats him, Zhang Mo still has to help them find a place to live.

"Here we are."

"Right here?"

"It stinks, what does it smell like?"

Zhang Mo led them to a house, which was already full of people, and before they could go in, they smelled a bad smell and stench, just like the feeling that the toilet was repaired in the kitchen.

Zhang Mo said angrily: "Where can I live if I don't live here?" You still want to live in the palace! Wait until I get the housekeeper. ”

"Forget it, don't go."

Zhou Hao pulled him back, "This should be a civilian area, I think it's good over there, it doesn't matter if the rent is expensive, I'm afraid that I can't sleep because of the noise next to me at night." ”

Zhou Hao's worries are not unreasonable, the room here is about the same size as the cubicles of two public toilets, and it is not soundproof, and it is a trivial matter to hear the little couple applauding for love at night, he is really afraid that whoever farts in the middle of the night will collapse the baffle.

"You've got to think about it."

Zhang Mo took a piece of paper in his hand and handed it to Zhou Hao, "This is the voucher that you have paid half of the materials, you have paid a lot, so you can live here for free, otherwise it will be like those houses outside that leak when it rains, if you live in the aristocratic area with the things in your hands, you can live for two months, and you have to negotiate the price." ”

Zhou Hao waved his hand and said indifferently: "Then rent him for a month first, where can I not get food?" ”

"That's a light point."

Zhang Mo pursed his lips, "If it were really as easy as you said, there wouldn't be so many people here who can't afford to eat." ”

Having said that, Zhang Mo still showed them the way, and the more they walked along this road, the more they could feel the depression of the life of the people in the slums here, not to mention the food, even the water was not drunk, and the grass nearby was dug and eaten, and it was impossible to imagine that this was only a month after the disaster broke out.
