Chapter 107: On the outskirts of Guicheng

After successfully passing through the Giant Spider Canyon, the remaining distance is not close, but it is relatively easy to walk. At noon, the pigeon team arrived at the outskirts of Guicheng.

In the second half of the way, the pigeon and others couldn't help but start talking about various experiences and experiences in Guicheng. On the side, Lin Zaishan, who "audited" with a modest and studious attitude, gained a lot of useful information.

Guicheng is a near-circular peninsula of less than 0.5 square kilometers surrounded by lakes, connected to the land by a narrow passage about 200 meters long and 20-40 meters wide. It was originally just a small resort with a four-star hotel. Since the end of the world, the surrounding area has gradually been occupied by wild nature and monsters, and the Guicheng Peninsula has easily achieved defense against land threats due to its special terrain conditions. The survivors built a large number of fortifications on the narrow passage, and arranged heavy firepower, including heavy machine guns and earthen artillery, so that mutant beasts and zombies below level 6 had to pay a heavy price if they wanted to pass.

Similar to the new provincial capital, Guicheng quickly gathered a large number of survivors after entering the end of the world with good security, and its current population size is about 3,000 people.

The actual ruler of Guicheng is called Wang Chengba, and the residents of Guicheng jokingly call him "the old king next door" or "Wang Ba". Wang Chengba was originally the owner of the Guicheng Hotel, and he was rich and powerful before the end of the world; The arrival of the end of the world did not affect the "side leakage" of his "kingly spirit" in the slightest, he not only continued to own the Guicheng Hotel, but also took the entire Guicheng Peninsula as his own, and was promoted by Boss Wang to "Wang City Lord".

Wang Chengba's administration of Guicheng in the last days was a completely dictatorial and predatory model: he controlled the city's most important resources, territory, and business with a powerful private army, and anyone who came to Guicheng to earn a living had to pay him a high entry and residence tax. For those who refuse to obey, Wang Chengba will not hesitate to take harsh measures to give them a lesson that will last a lifetime.

Wang Chengba turned the four-star Guicheng Hotel into his private residence, and he usually lived in the hotel's luxurious suites, where he was closely guarded by a large number of heavily armed and powerful personnel.

In Guicheng, the city lord Wang Chengba is the absolute "king of topics", and every day there are all kinds of news about him circulating in the market, what the old king next door "robbed whose daughter", "pinched and exploded the eggs of which hard-working man", "ate abalone soup yesterday", "held a carnival party today", "tested an infantry grenade on the rooftop of the Guicheng Hotel", "went to the lake to shoot mutant fish with a heavy machine gun", "a heavy reward was offered to search for the apocalyptic hero Lin Zaishan", "spent a huge amount of money to buy a sixth-level mutant cat and a fifth-level mutant dog as pets" and so on. If you run an entertainment newspaper in Guicheng, Mr. City Lord will not only dominate the headlines, but also basically cover all the news protagonists.

Apparently uninterested in pre-apocalyptic notions of human rights, the tyrannical lord openly supported and allowed the slave trade, which led to the formation of an influential slave market in the southeast.

//////

Listening to Wang Chengba's various anecdotes, Lin Zaishan couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Although he couldn't remember all his previous experiences, he was sure that he had never encountered this type of role.

"Isn't there a person of insight who 'advises' this domineering city lord?" Lin Zaishan asked.

"Who is impatient enough to dare to provoke this Earth Emperor?" The mung bean sprouts couldn't help but mock Lin Zaishan's naivety.

"The next time I see him, I must be kind to him." Lin Zaishan said with a righteous and awe-inspiring look.

"If you want to die, you can wait until we sell you first." The pigeon began to hit him mercilessly again.

"This slave market is also unacceptable." Lin Zaishan continued to criticize unrepentantly.

Mung Bean Sprouts suggested: "Sister Pigeon, I think we should kill this wild man now, so as not to be able to control our mouths after entering Guicheng and invite us to kill." ”

The pigeon pondered for a moment, and then said categorically: "We have brought him all the way, and we have invested a lot of costs, and we must not just sell him so cheaply, we must sell him at a high price and recover the cost!" ”

Lin Zaishan said with a smile: "You'd better find the green crystal fruit before you sell me." ”

The pigeon "snapped" and slapped his thigh, "I almost forgot such an important matter, savage, you can take us to find the green crystal fruit now!" ”

Lin Zaishan said: "I haven't eaten or drunk for almost two days and two nights, you inhuman guys, even if you raise a donkey, you have to feed some forage." ”

The pigeon said to the quail, "Give him a chicken leg and walk while eating." ”

"Forget the chicken legs, I smell disgusting." Lin Zaishan said, "I'll bear with it, wait for a while to find the green crystal fruit and then eat and drink." ”

"Where are you going to take us to find the Green Crystal?" The pigeon is so shrewd that she will never let the savages wander around with her aimlessly.

Lin Zaishanshou set up a pergola, looked around, pointed to a hill and said, "Let's go there first, this hill gathers qi, and the probability of producing genius treasures is the highest." If there is, everything will be fine; If not, you will definitely be able to find clues to the crystal fruit. So the team of pigeons followed him into the hills and jungles.

The terrain here is very different from when he was wandering on the back of a deer some time ago, and Lin Zaishan can no longer find the crystal fruit forest by appearance; However, he had other alternatives, and by carefully probing the sounds and reactions of the animals in the jungle, he could tell if they had taken the Crystal Fruit, or had seen the Crystal Fruit Grove.

//////

Behind a big tree, under the inexplicable gaze of the war pigeon squad, Lin Zaishan stared motionlessly at a mutant rabbit not far away for 30 seconds.

"Savage (Lin Dabai), have you found anything?"

"This mutant rabbit brother has obviously eaten a bad stomach recently, and his stomach is not good, and he has some diarrhea." Lin Zaishan replied with a clear eye.

"What else?"

"It looks like it lost the mate battle not long ago, and lost a precious opportunity to reproduce." Lin Zaishan continues to use the method of "expert experts" to tell "entertainment stories" that have nothing to do with the suffering of the "toiling masses".

"I'm asking you where is the green crystal?" The pigeon finally went berserk.

"This rabbit doesn't have a mouthful of pleasure, so we'd better change to another target." Lin Zaishan replied slowly.

"You'd better hurry, or I'll betroth you to this rabbit who can't get a mate!"

"I'm straight, not a base."

//////

Lin Zaishan stopped behind a big tree again, signaled everyone to be quiet, then listened for a moment, turned around and whispered to everyone: "According to the zombie knowledge you taught me some time ago, I judged that there were 13 zombies 70 meters ahead, of which 6 were level three, three were level four, three were level five, and one was level six. ”

"What nonsense are you talking about? The jungle is so dense, how can you tell the number and grade, and it is still 70 meters? "The pigeon is about to be crushed by this god-like savage.

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, anyway, the location of this group of zombies is only a few meters away from the crystal fruit forest."

"What?" Everyone was taken aback. "You take us to the crystal fruit forest, and we'll take care of the rest."

Lin Zaishan led everyone to sneak forward slowly, and the pigeon urged: "Don't grind, tell us the direction quickly." ”

"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Lin Zaishan said and pointed to the direction of 1 o'clock in front of him.

The pigeon immediately overtook Lin Zaishan and walked at the front of the group, and she took a big step with her dagger to remove the branches that blocked her head and face. Unexpectedly, his feet suddenly stepped into the air, and his body fell sharply towards a bottomless cave with a diameter of about 1 meter.

The pigeon was taken aback, and it was too late to make a leap move, and seeing that she was about to be swallowed up by that terrible cave, a large strong hand suddenly reached out from behind and grabbed her left forearm. With a flick of the arm, the pigeon's body, which weighs only 55 kilograms, is steadily lowered to the ground.

Only then did the pigeon realize that it was the "wild man" Lin Dabai who pulled her back from the cave.

"You're pretty good." The pigeon reluctantly praised Lin Zaishan.

"Shhhh ”

"What? Got a snake? Hearing this, the quail became excited, "Sister, I'm the best at catching snakes." ”

"Are you mistaken, this snake is so big and dangerous." Lin Zaishan gestured the thickness of a bucket.

The quail said: "Sister, I like it so big, and only when I abuse it can I have a sense of conquest." ”

"Okay, then I'll give you a sacred mission to guard this hole and prevent the big snake inside from coming out and attacking us."

The pigeon took the rope that bound Lin Zaishan's hand in the quail's hand, and the rest of the people continued to move forward under Lin Zaishan's guidance. After the lesson just now, the pigeons and others did not dare to grab Lin Zaishan again.

"Here we are." Lin Zaishan pointed to a big rock and said, "The zombie and the crystal fruit forest are both behind the big rock. ”

Everyone immediately poked their heads out from behind the stone to check, only to hear a roar peculiar to high-level zombies, and several zombies pounced on everyone with their teeth and claws.

Lin Zaishan jumped to the top of the tree in an instant like a frightened cat, and because the rope around his waist was still tied to the pigeon's wrist, he was easily pulled down and fell heavily on the grass.

The pigeon instantly pulled out its pistol, and the bullet hit the skull of a level 4 zombie. This bullet was specially prepared yesterday to deal with the giant spider, so it exploded the head of this level 4 zombie as agreed.

Liu Sitie picked up the machete in his hand and cut off the head of a zombie in front of him. The rest of the people all used powerful guns, all of them were neat, ruthless, and skillful with each other, and beat the corpses to pieces.

The quail in the distance heard the movement, rushed over desperately, tried his best, jumped more than a foot high, and pounced, crushing a fifth-level zombie by the waist.

In a short time, the pigeon team wiped out this small group of corpses.

"Didn't you say there's a level 6 zombie?" The pigeon asked, "Where did it go?" ”

"It's in that big tree behind you." As soon as Lin Zaishan finished speaking, a sturdy shadow jumped down in the air, and at the same time pounced on the six people of the war pigeon team (Xiao Lan was in the vehicle left behind).

Everyone in the pigeon squad knew that they were invincible, and hurriedly dodged, but the mung bean sprouts and the mountain pheasant couldn't dodge, and they were slapped the back, and immediately fell to the ground, and blood sprayed wildly in their mouths.

The pigeon fired two shots at the sixth-level zombie in an instant, both of which were protected by the latter's arm against the front door, and then a jump blow hit the pigeon's shoulder, and the pigeon suddenly slammed diagonally into a big tree. This blow from the level 6 zombie tore through her coat, but fortunately she was wearing a high-quality body armor inside, and her flesh was not scratched.

Level 6 zombies leap high again, ready to deliver a fatal blow to the pigeon. Lin appeared in the sky and kicked heavily on the right rib of the sixth-level zombie, causing him to deviate from his target. The sixth-level zombie wanted to turn around, but was forced to pounce forward again and again by Lin Zaishan's follow-up series of kicks.

At this time, Lin Zaishan noticed that there was a deep hole in front of him on the right, so he deliberately moved here to block in front of the hole.

The sixth-level zombie finally turned around and completely concentrated its hatred on Lin Zaishan's body, accelerating in an instant, and its body crashed over like a high-speed heavy truck. Lin Zaishan's figure flashed and jumped behind the big tree next to him, while the sixth-level zombie roared and fell into the cave, followed by a burst of fighting and terrible screams from inside.

//////

"What's the situation?" The pigeon ran over and asked.

"It looks like the sixth-level zombie brother fell into the cave and the fifth-level python brother is talking about friendship." Lin Zaishan said lightly behind the tree.

The pigeon stared at Lin Zaishan for a few more seconds and asked, "Didn't you say that the crystal fruit forest is near here?" Why can't I see it? ”

Lin Zaishan patted the fruit tree in front of him and replied, "This is the fruit tree with the green crystal fruit, but unfortunately, the fruit on the tree seems to have been eaten by something." If I'm not mistaken, the one who stole the fruit should be the python brother in the cave. ”

The pigeon and the others all looked into the tree that Lin Zaishan said with concern and found that it was really different. There were several trees of the same kind around, and they all seemed to have blossomed and borne fruit, but none of them were there.

"Did you lie to me?" The pigeon pressed Lin Zaishan.

"It's just a green crystal, isn't it something great? Is it worth me to lie and deceive? ”

"Sister Pigeon, what should I do?"

"Let's look around and see if there are any other crystal fruit forests."

"You don't have to bother." "According to my experience, there is only one crystal fruit forest at most in a suitable area of about 100 square kilometers. If you want to find the next one, you'll have to drive to the mountains and forests there. Lin Zaishan pointed to the vague shadow of the mountain far away and said.

"We'll look for it no further away." In order to save his father, the pigeon is definitely not afraid of hard work.

//////

At this moment, the pigeon's short-range communication phone suddenly rang.

A woman's cold voice said, "Little pigeon, there are forty-five minutes left until the last time of delivery, you better hurry up; Otherwise, some unfortunate accident will happen to your dad. Don't blame me if he's missing any parts or is left with a lifelong disability or even a life. ”

The pigeon hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'll go over with the goods now." You'd better make sure my dad doesn't hurt a single hair, or I'll pick your skin and pull your tendons!" ”

The other party replied unhurriedly: "If you save the effort of firing the mouth cannon, maybe you can arrive a little faster." Remember: the delivery location is Turtle Rock outside Guicheng. ”

The phone hung up, and Liu Sitie asked anxiously: "Sister Pigeon, there is no time, we haven't gotten the green crystal fruit yet, what should we do?" ”

"No matter how much, let's go to the delivery location first and rescue my dad. It's a big deal to fight with them on the spot! ”

//////

Everyone left the hill in a hurry, jumped into the car, and drove quickly towards Guicheng. The convoy stopped under a large rock shaped like a turtle near the entrance to Guicheng. Everyone was armed and ready for the next test.

Lin Zaishan asked, "Can I take advantage of the rest before the game to relieve my hands?" ”

The pigeon said angrily: "You are really lazy donkey uphill and have a lot of and urine, you are not allowed to go!" ”

The pigeon looked anxiously at the watch, and a minute passed, and two minutes passed...... Finally, 5 minutes later, an SUV drove up from a grove not far away. After the car was parked, three men and one woman came down: the leader was a tall man in a black trench coat with a hat covering his face; A stocky, stocky man like a winter melon, holding a special large pistol pointed at the head of a middle-aged man who was tied up with flowers; There was also a veiled young woman armed with a small pistol.
