5. Heavy trucks

When I listen, I'm actually living my days like years. I waited for a fleeting opportunity to carry out the plan I had been longing for.

"Some people suspect that some kind of experiment a hundred years ago caused the space distortion in the San Francisco area, so there are large new deserts, and our journey has been much longer," Lao Wei said. ”

I expressed my confusion, and I also expressed my internal urgency, and I needed to leave for a while.

Lamia said, "You really know etiquette, and you don't need our permission to do this." ”

I smiled at her and got up to walk away, when Lamia said, "Can you give me back the meat rolls in your pocket?" ”

She saw through my clever plan, and she was my boss.

I asked, "How did this meat roll end up in my pocket?" ”

"I saw you stuffed from your bag to your pocket," she said, "and you moved very quickly, the fastest thief I have ever seen." ”

Thief?

I defended myself: "It is the custom of our village that the leader of the scavengers must be able to detect and stop the theft of his subordinates, and if she does, she will gain the eternal respect of the scavengers." ”

Actually, there is no such custom, but I can't lose my dream of heaven because of a roll of meat. Some people may think that a roll of meat is nothing, but in sad times, people even fight for a little mud.

I'm just hungry, like a hungry fish, they even have companions....

Lamia stared at me with an elusive expression, and I stopped my nervousness with great concentration, but my Khan betrayed me.

I said, "Now I'm completely convinced, sir. ”

She said, "Don't give it back to me, you can eat it yourself." ”

I felt lost, I felt ashamed, I felt that I had lost my direction in life, I was so tormented that I stuffed the meat roll into my mouth, and it was really delicious like never before.

After I finished eating in two bites, I asked again: "After talking for a long time, I still don't know the purpose of your trip to the Bay Scenic Area." ”

Lamia smiled and asked, "You're not going to pee?" ”

I think she's going too far, why should she pursue such a trivial matter.

I told her I could postpone it.

"In order to pioneer, we need resources, and for resources, we need to pioneer," Lamia said. I can run a hundred kilometers in a day, but I can't transport ore, water and machinery back to the black coffin from a hundred kilometers away. So, we need transport. ”

I said, "I've seen a lot of parking lots, and there's a lot of cars parked around here, and they're tied up with plants, but maybe they can still work." ”

"You've lived underground for too long and don't know what's going on on the ground," Lamia said. Those cars were made of oil, and as far as I know, all proven oil has been contaminated and only damages the car engine. And these cars are too light and thin to handle the task of transporting, especially when the road is full of robbers and demons, some demons... Physique resembles an African elephant. ”

I've never seen a demon like that.

Lao Wei said: "That's right, two months ago, a ranger found a special vehicle in the Caron garage in the bay area, we called it 'Yune', that thing is harder than a tank, stronger than a tank, ten times bigger than a tank, a car can carry 320 tons of cargo, and it is powered by a mixture of nuclear energy and solar energy. ”

"In other words, it requires little energy and cannot be destroyed, we can convert it into a chariot, and it will be a moving castle," Lamia said. It can also be converted into a wagon, which will be a cargo ship on land. It is what the consuls dream of, the hope of human revival. We were lucky that it was less than a hundred kilometers away from the black coffin. ”

I said, "Then why didn't that Ranger drive it back into the black coffin?" ”

"Only people with special training can drive," Lamia said. She pointed at Lao Wei, who gave her a strange military salute.

Lamia added, "Only Laca can crack the code of the garage and open the heavy protective door." I looked at Lagar, but she was still indifferent to anything.

I said, "So, the rangers didn't really see Yune?" "I doubt it's anyone's guess that after a hundred years of not seeing the light of day, it's still unknown whether it will function as usual.

Lamia replied: "Actually, they did, they saw it through external monitors, and they found its information, and that was enough." The consul decided that we had to go there and see. There were 20 of us in all, and we escorted Laca and Lao Wei on the road, but we encountered a storm and got separated from the others. She couldn't hide the sadness in her eyes, and I think she may have lost an important loved one because of it, but she was strong and tried to hide her weakness for a moment.

I have seen many storms of the Age of Sorrows, but I am not fully familiar with them, the storms of the Age of Sorrows are not rainy, they are very rare, they are considered to be the grace of God, more often than not, those storms are unpredictable, some of them magnetize the human body, bury people under iron and stone; Some were mixed with locusts, which gnawed away the bones of people in an instant. Others can be disorienting, as if sleepwalking for tens of kilometers. Eventually, some demons will follow the storm and kill those who come their way.

Now that they are caught in the storm, most of those who are separated will not survive.

"According to my colleagues, Yune should be safe there, at least some of the bandit mongrels that were once stationed outside Yune have been cleared by my colleagues," Lamia said. ”

I said, "But they didn't even go into the garage, who knows what's in there?" ”

Lao Wei said: "Yes, who knows? After all, there have been incredible discoveries in the black coffin. ”

I asked, "What discovery?" ”

Lao Wei pointed at Lacken and said with a smile: "We found this little princess in a laboratory. Maybe there's something like that in the garage. ”

"After all, the garage has survived the havoc and is still almost intact," Lamia said. ”

Lao Wei said: "Next, as long as we don't get involved in the storm, we can join up with the garrison rangers safely, and drive Yune back to the black coffin, even if we are done, we can be promoted and rich." ”

The word "promotion and fortune" sounds very comfortable, and I feel very optimistic about the prospects.

At night, I am in the first half of the night, and Lamia is in the second half of the night. I was disappointed to find out that she was preventing me from stealing the meat rolls, how can friends trust each other like thieves? She shouldn't have put a small trap in her bag that almost broke my finger.

In the morning, Lamia scolded me: "What a bad habit. ”

I walked in front with my head bowed and patiently explained to her that this was a time-honored custom of the scavengers in Waterless Village.

Lamia pointed to a roll of blood-stained sandwiches and said, "How are you going to let me eat this?" ”

I told her that my blood wasn't dirty and that it was drinkable.

Lamia whispered, "I'm not a nobleman of the black coffin, I don't suck blood. ”

I asked, "What?" ”

Lamia shook her head and said, "I lost my words, please pretend I didn't hear it." "Then the sandwich is mine.

The architectural style of the Bay Scenic Area is very simple, it is a huge warehouse-like house, silver-white walls, climbing vines and trees, which makes the original monotonous scenery become vibrant, making people feel that life is everywhere.

But I know how terrible life can become.

In a way, it was the fish that saved me.

Pointing to Charon's huge mark, he told us that it had arrived. Actually, I don't need her to say it, we've all seen it.

"Charon used to be a world-class car manufacturing plant, but then it was controlled by the military," Lamia said. ”

When we arrived, it was already night, and the garage looked like a sealed military base, which was breathtaking. There was a fence outside, a fenced iron gate, but the gate had been destroyed.

Lamia took out a walkie-talkie, adjusted the channel, and said, "Agor, Agor, I'm Bravado, please call back when you receive it." ”

This walkie-talkie should have a demanding range of use, I guess that's the code name for the Ranger, the Aargau initials are A, and the Bravado initials are B. When they found this place, the rangers split up and went back to report the news, and stationed there all the way.

No one answered.

Lamia tried again, but without answering, Laca said, "A demon has been detected." ”

Lamia immediately looked at his watch and said, "There are five, two at three o'clock and two at nine o'clock, and one at twelve o'clock." ”

She looked around and saw the tallest tree, and said, "Lack of Jia, old man, you hide under the tree, and I will go up and snipe." Fishbones, you go to nine o'clock and bring two of them over, and the two are very close. ”

I said, "The devil is faster than me." ”

She said, "It's not as fast as Excalibur." As long as they hit the head, they are no different from paper. And I never fall short. ”

I knew that there were many good things, but I didn't expect it to be so twisty and twisted, my heart and body were hurt, my heart hurt from her distrust last night, my body hurt from the scars on my fingers, and she didn't care.

I shouldn't have to bear such a burden, so I suggested that we could come back tomorrow, after all, I wasn't in a hurry, this is the principle of our scavengers, what we can wait, why take the risk?

Lamia said, "Go ahead, it's okay. ”

She sounded like she was telling me to take out the trash.

I can't refuse, if the rescue that day made a good impression on her, the stealing of the sandwich undoubtedly overshadowed that good impression.

I often reflect on why I am so reckless. After thinking about it for a long time, I thought it was all the fish's fault.

It was the fish that endangered me, it was the fish that made me abnormal, it was the fish that made me lose control, it was the fish that made me yearn for the breath and smell of the skyscraper, it was the fish that made me fall into the habit of deception and stealing on the way out.

Yes, it is all caused by fish, and fish are the root of all evil.

This conclusion straightened my back a lot, and then excessive integrity often did not allow the world, and I was discovered by the devil.

It was two white demons, about 190 centimeters in size, I saw bullet marks on their bodies, mutilated corpses at their feet, I recognized the Rangers' signs, did they kill their comrades stationed here? The demon roared and galloped towards me, the demon ran as fast as a horse, and I immediately turned and ran, thinking I was running fast, but they were getting closer.

I heard what seemed to be a bullet grazing in my ears, and the sound was unusually high-pitched, and there was a "buzzing" sound that made my head dizzy. I turned around, and two demons slammed into the streets. I looked at Lamia again, and she gestured her hand in a circle, smiled, and her lips moved, as if to say, "Go on." ”
