Chapter 91: The Test of Human Nature

Following the other vehicles, Chu Chen and the others came to a survivors' gathering place composed of a small number of buildings and a large number of tents after half an hour.

At the outermost end of the gathering place, there is a simple stone wall up to two meters high, and every 100 meters or so, there is a guard tower.

As for the gate, Chu Chen only saw one gate for the time being, this gate was about thirty meters wide, and there were a large number of soldiers in military uniforms guarding the town, and the people who entered the city were levied into the city.

After following the long convoy, after queuing for nearly half an hour, it was finally Chu Chen's turn and the others, but Chu Chen was in a bad mood, so he didn't get out of the car, but ordered Fang Wei to go down to deal with it.

A few minutes later, Fang Wei took a soldier to the car, and when the soldiers registered the number, Fang Wei took the time to inform Chu Chen that new people who enter the city need to pay 5 catties of food per capita, and they can also receive a number, each number corresponds to a name, and after leaving the city in the future, when entering the city again, you can report the number and name, and you only need to pay 1 catty of food per person.

Fang Wei also told Chu Chen that he and the others were No. 37421, and as for the name, Fang Wei reported Chu Chen's name.

Just as Fang Wei was about to tell Chu Chen the rules for exchanging all kinds of grain, Chu Chen waved his hand and motioned for him to deal with it himself.

A few minutes after Fang Wei got out of the car again, he returned to the car with a simple map, sat next to the driver's seat, and instructed Ye Xiang, who was driving, to start the car and drive to the base.

After entering the base, Fang Wei pointed in a direction and asked Ye Xiang to drive in this direction, while Fang Wei himself came to Chu Chen's side and handed Chu Chen the simple map in his hand.

Chu Chen looked at the map and found that it was nothing more than a blank piece of paper, a map of the interior of the base drawn with a black ballpoint pen.

Fang Wei pointed to the place on the map, marked in red, and introduced to Chu Chen: "Boss Chu, this is the simple map of the Shui'an survivor base, the area marked in red is the rich area, civilians are forbidden to enter, accounting for one-third of the total area of the base, and it is close to the mountainous area, so it can be disturbed by zombies." ”

Chu Chen sneered: "Hmph, it seems that these so-called rich people are not clear, and the mutated creatures in the mountains are the most terrifying." ”

Fang Wei didn't answer, moved his finger to the periphery of the base, and continued: "This large area marked in gray is a civilian area, of course, the rich can also come and go at will. ”

Raising his head and glancing at Chu Chen carefully, Fang Wei drew a few circles on the map and said: "The old slave just secretly stuffed a pack of cigarettes to the registered soldier, he said that in the area of three-quarters of the north of the civilian area, these three places were occupied by the three forces led by Li Haofeng, Wang Yuwen, and Long Shengfu!" ”

Chu Chen took out a pack of cigarettes from the different dimension, threw it to Fang Wei, and asked, "What is the civilian area, this quarter-sized place in the south?" ”

Fang Wei carefully put away his cigarette and explained: "This place is a free trading market in the civilian area. ”

Chu Chen frowned and asked, "What about the idle survivors?" Where do they live? ”

Fang Wei opened his mouth and said: "Most of the idle survivors, stationed in the three major spheres of influence, can be safe and sound if they pay a certain amount of protection money every day!" However, the old slave dared to suggest that we camp between Li Haofeng and Wang Yuwen's forces. ”

Chu Chen looked at the position Fang Wei pointed to, and asked casually, "Tell me your reason." ”

Fang Wei explained: "First of all, according to what the soldier said, these two forces are relatively weak, so they will be forcibly occupied by Long Shengfu The closest advantageous position to the free trading market!" Secondly, the Shui'an survivor base has been initially stabilized, in this apocalypse, the base, the small dilapidated brick houses closer to the center have been fried to a high price of seven or eight thousand catties of grain, and the houses on the periphery, although they are not so exaggerated, but we can't afford to pay, so we can only set up tents in the field to settle down, of course, this is also the status quo of most of the survivors, and even, most of the survivors are sleeping on the street. ”

Chu Chen's face was surprised, and he asked: "The weather is still good now, and when the weather turns cold, won't these people who sleep on the street freeze to death?" ”

Fang Wei lowered his head and said, "This, the old slave can't predict either. ”

Chu Chen sighed, handed the map back to Fang Wei, waved his hand at him, looked out the car window, and casually ordered: "Okay, you go and arrange it!" ”

Fang Wei left in response.

The convoy was driving along an uneven dirt road, and Chu Chen's mood also shook a little, but compared to looking out of the car window, Chu Chen's undulating mood was nothing.

Outside the car window, on both sides of the dirt road, there are countless beggars and a small number of sellers along the way, most of them are normal people, but there are also children, the elderly, and the disabled!

As for the sellers, there are almost no other things to sell, without exception, they are all selling themselves or their families, perhaps, not only do they have no food, but they also have no other supplies!

The convoy overtook a truck, Chu Chen glanced into the truck, and his mind, which had been trained for more than a month in the last days, was also shaken, and he almost vomited.

The shelves behind the truck were full of naked human corpses!

'Wow' sounded, Chu Chen turned his head, and saw that it was his mother Yang Lan who was vomiting, there was no doubt that his mother must have also seen the human corpse on the truck!

The inside of the car was immediately filled with a foul smell! Although everyone didn't dare to say anything, there were several people who retched a few times about it.

At this time, another truck appeared on the side of the road, and Ye Xiang slowed down curiously to check.

The truck, where a group of people were on the side of the road, slowly stopped, and two men got down from the truck and scolded a few times, and the group of people suddenly dispersed, leaving a pair of naked mother and son corpses on the ground, the two corpses were not only without a single strand, but also on the legs, arms, and even the chest were gnawed and pitted!

Now, not to mention Yang Lan, together with Ye Xiang and Chu Chen, everyone vomited non-stop, and even Xiao Yang Xin and Li Zhenguo, who didn't see the corpses, were vomited by the stench in the car.

Because Ye Xiang, who was driving, was also leaning over and vomiting, the bus was uncontrollable, and rushed directly to the pile of people on the side of the road, and there were a few screams, Ye Xiang quickly got up, and while hanging a large amount of vomit on his mouth, he held the steering wheel and slowly stopped the car.

After the lead bus stopped, the three trucks that followed naturally also stopped.

In the bus, everyone swarmed down, turning their backs to the truck that was collecting the corpses.

After a few people in the truck got down, it was not clear what they were for, Chang He, who had eased up a little, pointed in the direction of the corpse, and suddenly, several more members were added to the vomiting army.

Chang He didn't want to look more, so he followed Chu Chen, who rinsed his mouth with mineral water, walked to the front of the bus and began to check the situation of the bus.

Fortunately, Ye Xiang slowed down the speed of the car at the beginning, so it didn't cause too serious a situation.

A total of four people were hit, three of whom were injured and one was crushed and was no longer breathing.

Chu Chen just wanted to discuss compensation with the injured three, but found that the injured person held back the pain and limped away slowly, leaving a body crushed to death, lying alone on the side of the road.

At this time, the two people who got off the truck walked to Chu Chen's side and shouted, "You guys hurry up, we still have to collect the corpse." These are the lowest pariahs, crushed to death. ”

Chu Chen looked at the place where the mother and son corpses were before, and the corpses were indeed gone.

Looking at the two people who came to collect the corpses in front of him, Chu Chen swallowed his saliva, and told Fang Wei to arrange for someone to get in the car to clean up the vomit, and then, Chu Chen took out a pack of cigarettes that had been opened, and after giving a cigarette to the two people in front of him, he also lit one.
