Four o'clock in the evening.

Outside the door, the rain was still falling, accompanied by thunder from time to time, as if it would never stop.

And inside this spacious store.

'Buzzing' the air conditioner sounded.

The temperature outside is getting colder and colder, and a layer of white mist is gradually covering the office walls surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass.

Jiang Cang sat at the coffee table in the office, shaking the wine in the wine glass, feeling the hot air from the air conditioner in the house, and looking out of the window and door, as if he had seen the rainy night through the white fog.

The 'rustling' wind and rain are still there.

After a tiring day, the young couple fell asleep on a guest sofa in the house, and the heavy rain outside the window did not wake them up from their sleep.

On the contrary, the warm hot air in the house made them sleep more soundly, as if they had dreamed before the catastrophe.

Zhou Fatzi rubbed the wine glass, held the cumin peanuts on the coffee table plate between his fingers, occasionally ate a grain, and took a sip of wine.

And Jiang Cang and he have been sitting for nearly two hours since they came here, chatting for a long time, and drinking a few glasses of wine.

The wine is still the only unopened bottle of wine left in Zhou Fatzi's backpack, and it is also what Jiang Cang asked him to bring on the road.

At this time.

The wine has bottomed out.

Jiang Cang leaned on the boss's chair, sipping the only remaining wine in the cup, carefree for a while, and felt a comfortable life, maybe that's it.

At least I have a knife, a close friend, and good wine.

And Zhou Fatzi was chewing peanuts, looking at the magnificently decorated office, envious of the boss's life,

"This shopkeeper can open such a large storefront, I believe that he is a figure in this steel market, a pre-apocalyptic figure. It is estimated that many neighbors usually come to him to drink tea and play cards. There's a guy upstairs who cooks, and maybe he'll call friends for a get-together at noon. ”

Zhou Fatzi said, drinking the remaining half a cup in one gulp, "I think his life may have business pressure, but it is much better than my life." Before I got the Yuan Energy, I was still yearning for this kind of life. Now that I have obtained the Yuan Energy, I am even more yearning. Be.. Calm? ”

"You're not right." Jiang Cang held the wine glass, "A bottle of wine, talking so much, understand?" Have you finished reading the book? ”

"Got it.. But I didn't read the book. Zhou Fatzi took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and lit it, the fire flickered on and off, "Let's go to the base and take a look, the rain outside is too noisy." And the factory should be quieter there. ”

"It's up to you." Jiang Cang was noncommittal, "The words have come to this." ”

"I understand." Fat Zhou smiled, "I understand that Brother Jiang may have drunk with me and sheltered me for the sake of Yuanwu or treating me as a friend." And if I'm not mistaken, there should be quite a few powerhouses in this world, or 'strong'?.. That's why Brother Jiang won't let me leave the factory, I'm afraid that I'm not safe, and you won't be able to protect me then."

"What I know." Jiang Cang's fingers tapped on the desktop, "You can't do it." No beat. Let's read a book first. The words have been understood, the choice is yours. ”

When Jiang Cang said this, he actually wanted to say that with Zhou Fatzi's ability, if he really wandered in the last days, it was obvious that he would let Zhou Fatzi die, which was against morality and kindness.

But Zhou Fatzi is a human being, or chance may be accompanied by a crisis, this is not clear.

But no matter what, just for this escort task, if you don't have yourself, Zhou Fatzi really can't do it.

You know, this is a 'team? Task. ’

The 'difficulty' that the two supernatural powers of Xiao and himself have, how can Zhou Fatzi complete it?

Then follow the information of the owl, and their own exploration.

There were zombies near the clothing store yesterday, and they would just wait more and more, and they couldn't run.

This is obviously a dead end.

Especially when Zhou Fatzi was on the way before, he also stepped on a tall building, and he also saw the nearby corpses, so he could understand and know more about this situation.

So Zhou Fatzi has no resentment in his heart now, but is grateful to Brother Jiang for saving him.

After all, in such a catastrophic world, isn't it a life-saving grace to have a strong man who openly says that he wants to 'protect people' and send himself to a safe place?

Anyway.

Zhou Fatzi's three views are very positive and grateful.

Jiang Cang also put down his promise, this favor is paid off, everything depends on Zhou Fatzi.

He was leaving, and Jiang Cang wouldn't say anything.

If you want to stay, just stay safe.

It's very clear.

A bottle of wine on a rainy night.

Make everything clear.

Turn back to reality, and you can still read a book together.

And when Zhou Fatzi was drinking, he also made up his mind, maybe he saw a good task and felt that it was his own fate, so he would find a time to leave, and he would not interfere with Brother Jiang's affairs.

And now.

Zhou Fatzi saw that it was almost five o'clock, so he cleaned up the coffee table and prepared to go upstairs to make some side dishes with the shopkeeper's kitchenware.

There is a refrigerator upstairs, which has a lot of food, six dishes and one soup are enough.

You can't just drink alcohol.

But it's also this time.

When Zhou Fatzi was just about to go out and go upstairs, the clock in the house also went to five o'clock, and the melody of a children's song sounded.

At the same time, Jiang Cang heard the bell and subconsciously looked at the clock, but saw two handwriting on the clock, which was 'friendship.' ’

It's a handwriting task.

But Zhou Fatzi glanced at the clock at this time, but he didn't see anything, he just thought the 'alarm sound' of the clock was interesting, and continued to walk upstairs.

And Jiang Cang saw this scene, and noticed that Zhou Fatzi did not have any expression fluctuations, and it seemed that he didn't see the handwriting on the clock, so he was puzzled in his heart and guessed again, feeling that although Zhou Fatzi was also on the line of 'guide' with himself, the advantage of the supernatural power may lie in the fact that there are many more tasks? ’

Jiang Cang thought about it, and felt that only this explanation could be in line with the current situation.

Then, Jiang Cang finished thinking about this matter, and began to perceive the 'task flow' in his mind again. ’

Basically, 'let yourself go to the warehouse on the east side of the building materials market, get a drawing, or a piece of information, and give it to the people in the survivor's base, so that they know that the warehouse has a processing facility such as a 'lathe'. ’

Time.

Jiang Cang sensed the guidance in his mind, coupled with the 'friendship' prompt of the handwriting task, and almost understood.

The eight achievements are what the people in the survivor base want to make, and then they need some lathe equipment in the steel market.

But they didn't know if it was safe or not, so the matter was put on hold.

After all, although the steel market is only more than two miles away from the survivor base, it is only a short walk away.

But now that zombies are rampant, they don't dare to come out, of course, they don't know the situation here.

I'm even more afraid that I and others will risk the danger to come, not only is the equipment broken here, but there are also many zombies, so it's not like looking for death.

And when Jiang Cang thought of this, he felt that he was now a 'pathfinder', and he could be regarded as a 'friendship' line of the survivor base with the charter of 'intelligence' and 'escort mission'. ’

Meantime.

Jiang Cang also sensed that there were three location hints in his mind, one was the warehouse two hundred meters to the east, and the other two were the location of one of the warehouses.

That's not much to say.

Jiang Cang put his double knives cross-body, found an umbrella, walked out of the glass door of the office, stood in the store, accompanied by the sound of night rain, and said to the staircase on the second floor next to him,

"I'm going out. The store is handed over to you to see. ”

Bang Bang –

The thunder flickered, and half of Zhou Fatzi's body leaned out from the second floor, and nodded, "Jiang Cang, go ahead." ”

The words fell.

Zhou Fatzi looked at the thunder light outside, thinking that this scene was a little infiltrating, as if he was a bad person, and deliberately went down the stairs, and added: "When you come back, I'm cooking." I looked at the store first. ”

Zhou Fatzi said, and he didn't ask Jiang Cang why he went out on a rainy night, because it was still the same sentence, the two glasses of wine were drunk, and the matter was clear, and there would be not so many things to ask in the future.

Brother Jiang talks about morality, and he has to behave well.

And Jiang Cang nodded, then opened the umbrella and pushed open the door of the store.

Whew-

A cold wind blew and rain poured in, blowing the metal pipes of the samples in the store, making a 'pestle' sound.

Jiang Cang stepped out in one step, stepped on the front steps under the door number shelf, glanced at Zhou Fatzi who was back in the house, and noticed that there was no sense of danger of intrigue, so he closed the door behind him.

'Bang la la'

Standing outside the door, the sound of the rain hitting the ground is clearer.

Jiang Cang looked at the rows of facades in the rain curtain around him, and saw that the drainage system of this market may be good, although the rain was heavy tonight, the rain on the ground was up to the feet, and it had not flooded the steps.

It's just that as I stepped into the puddle with my own foot, my shoes were half wet, and a cold feeling came, like stepping into a glacial hole in winter.

The temperature is definitely below freezing.

Maybe if it doesn't rain, the rain is still flowing and the ground may freeze.

But strangely.

Jiang Cang noticed that although the weather was cold, it was still raining in the sky, and even the previous 'Xiaoice Grains were gone.

'Da Da Da'

The rain pounded on the umbrellas.

Jiang Cang listened to the voice and made sure that the ice particles had indeed disappeared, and the weather in the last century was really mysterious.

But it is also this kind of ghost weather that makes the zombies wandering in the city rely on their survival instincts, like animals to take shelter from the rain, and find a place to hide from the rain.

Because when Jiang Cang glanced at the big warehouse in the rain in the distance, he found that in front of the front gate of the big warehouse, there were seven or eight zombies crowded together.

'It seems like there's only one zombie around..'

Jiang Cang looked around again, and after seeing that there were no zombies near the store, he walked towards the warehouse with an umbrella.

Whew-

The wind howled along the way, and the rain carried umbrellas.

The raindrops from the wind deviated on the roller shutters and walls of nearby shops, and there was a crisp 'click' sound, which opened up the water splashes and was dissolved by the raindrops that followed.

Jiang Cang walked all the way, and the clothes on his body had been soaked a lot by the rain, and a cold feeling hit.

But compared to Zhou Fatzi's freezing in the afternoon, he has snow wolf skin to wear, plus his physique is three times better, and it will not affect his strength in a short time.

But Jiang Cang hurried to catch the line, when the warehouse was close, he ran a few steps directly in the rain, and the moment he stepped into the front shed, the umbrella was thrown in the air, and the 'sonorous' double knife came out of the sheath, and the knife flashed.

Suddenly, Jiang Cang's double knives were either pointed, or sharpened, accompanied by the sound of 'clicking' broken bones, and the corpse fell to the ground.

Jiang Cang put his knives into the sheath, and with his left hand, he picked up the umbrella floating in the air, closed it, and placed it in front of the door where the corpses were all over the place.

And maybe it was really because of the cold, what nerves were frozen, Jiang Cang also found that when he rushed towards these zombies, these zombies were still stunned.

Perhaps, this is why zombies take shelter from the rain.

Under the survival instinct, they are also afraid of frostbite and death?

Jiang Cang thought about it for a while, and did not continue to think about this question, but looked at the gate in front of him again.

The door was locked, with two pins on the ground and two large locks hanging from it.

But there was a small iron gate on the gate that was hidden, and a chain hung from it, and it was not locked.

Jiang Cang sensed it in his heart, although he didn't notice any danger, he still cautiously stuck to the door, listened attentively first, and heard that there was no sound inside, and then pulled away from the chain.

'Bang la-la' iron chains and iron door handles make a steel sliding sound.

The moment Jiang Cang pulled off the iron chain, he turned sideways, pushed open the iron door, and looked inside with a knife.

Under night vision, there are rows of metal steel pipes, two forklifts, and several cutting and packing machines next to the warehouse.

Looking to the west, there are still a lot of machinery and equipment at the mission site.

And Jiang Cang walked into the warehouse, walked all the way, didn't pay attention to these, but walked to an office in the warehouse, and looked at the desk drawer of the task guide.

Turn it on again.

There are logistics bills, inventory flows, more than a dozen business cards in the steel factory, two calculators, and a wide variety of things.

However, the task guide is not about the goods in this warehouse, but the list of equipment in the warehouse, a total of three pieces of paper, recording what lathe equipment is in the warehouse.

Jiang Cang looked at it twice, then folded the three pieces of paper and put them in the crack of the snow wolf skin.

At the same time, the task of 'coming to the warehouse and obtaining information' in my mind has also been completed, and only the last 'guidance' remains. ’

And this 'guide' is also in this office of about 100 square meters.

Jiang Cang looked towards his right, and it was in the cabinet in the lower right corner of the desk.

Sonorous –

Jiang Cang took out a long knife and said goodbye to the door, and the sawdust of the cabinet splashed, and the cabinet door opened in response.

With a flick of the long knife, a pair of well-wrapped splendid boxes were skimmed out by the long knife, looking like gifts.

Seeing this, Jiang Cang picked up the box that was not heavy and put it on the table.

The top of the red rope is unfastened, and the lid is removed.

Jiang Cang saw that there was a pair of boots inside, or rather, it looked like a pair of ancient military generals' 'combat boots', and it looked like military boots, delicately polished cowhide boots, wrapped in black brocade cotton, and worn behind a trace of gold thread.

In particular, in my mind, I even prompted this pair of combat boots as 'meta-thing!' ’

But it is an unopened and not fully upgraded meta-object.

Anyway.

The moment Jiang Cang saw it, even if there was no hint of the element, he liked this pair of combat boots.

Not to mention that it looks beautiful, the shoes I am wearing now are also soaked, and it is time to change to a new pair.

And this piece is made of polished cowhide, with waterproof effect.

'Boom'

Jiang Cang pulled up his pants, found a rag to wipe his legs, and changed into these pair of combat boots.

As soon as I put it in.

Took two steps.

Jiang Cang found that these pair of combat boots were very warm, comfortable, and not like a handicraft with a pattern.

In other words, this main quest is just different.

Just after the 'opening door' of killing out of the city, a 'meta-thing equipment' came the next day. ’

Not only is it comfortable, but it's also very good-looking, but my casual clothes really don't match.

It affected the heroism of this boot.

It's better to take off your coat and wear a snow wolf skin alone.

But now that Jiang Cang saw the end of the mission, he didn't bother with anything anymore, so he waited for the rain to stop and returned to the base, so he perfected his combat boots.

'Click'

Just waited for Jiang Cang to walk to the door of the warehouse, but saw that in just a few minutes, a zombie came in the rain and came under the eaves, probably to hide from the rain.

And Jiang Cang glanced at it a few times, and when he walked out of the warehouse, he reached out with his right hand, picked up the umbrella by the door, and handed it over, piercing the zombie's rotten throat.

'Poof' accompanied by a splash of blood.

Jiang Cang got out of the eaves, pulled out the umbrella, stretched it out, the heavy rain was as old as ever, the blood was washed out, and he stepped towards the rain curtain.
