Chapter 223: The First Entry into the Gathering Place

"Let's go, old paste, let's meet this legendary HB gathering place!" After speaking, the fat man turned around and took the lead in entering the gathering place.

I shook my head at Liu Jianguo and the others, and then quickly followed the fat man into the gathering place.

On the left side of the gate of the gathering place is the identity registration office that Ma Tao said, all five of us went to register our identities, and then each of us got an identification card, which is actually the same document as the old ID card before, and only with the identification card can you freely enter and exit the gathering place.

Out of the registration office, I looked curiously at the so-called HB gathering place, the HB gathering place is no different from other gathering places, the same dirty mess, sewage and garbage everywhere, at a glance everywhere is endless shacks, in and out of the shacks are yellow muscles, even unclothed survivors.

The survivors' eyes were hollow and numb, their faces were gray and weak, and they looked at the eyes of passers-by like wooden chickens, and when someone walked by, they stretched out their hands in vain, as if begging for food, but no one paid any attention to them. These are people who have given up hope, and they live like the walking dead outside the gathering place.

I looked at these begging survivors and shook my head slightly, these people all have hands and feet, because they are afraid of zombies, they don't dare to go out to search for food, and would rather beg here?

In these last days, if you fear death, you will only die worse.

The HB gathering place, which can accommodate nearly 100,000 people, is very large, and in order to find out the further situation in the gathering place as soon as possible, the five of us divided into two groups and began to wander around the gathering place purposefully.

The fat man was in a group with Zhao Guodong and me, and Liu Jianguo and Sun Xiaolong were in a group, and we agreed to meet again at the gate of the gathering place when it was almost dark.

We continued along the shack area, stopping all the way to ask the survivors about the situation in the gathering place, and the survivors looked very indifferent, not answering our questions at all, just doing their own thing.

We walked a distance, and the fat man finally couldn't help but say, "Damn! What's wrong with everyone here? They all love to ignore Lao Tzu, who can they show with a stinky face? ”

"Don't be angry, fatty, it's normal, if they greet us with a smile as soon as we come in, that's not good!" I said.

"What do you mean?" The fat man stopped and looked at me suspiciously.

"Because they smile at you, it proves that they are striking at you again! And it's the kind that isn't bad and kind! I explained with a smile.

After hearing this, the fat man said disapprerovingly: "If anyone dares to hit Lao Tzu's attention, Lao Tzu must have peeled his skin!" ”

I shook my head with a wry smile, and then continued to walk towards the gathering place, and after walking for about ten minutes, the shack area was gone, and it was replaced by a private housing area, and there was a team of armed guards standing at the entrance of the private housing area, which was obviously different from the shack area outside.

It is not difficult to enter the residential area, as long as you pay a certain fee from the guards, the three of us want to enter the residential area according to the regulations, each person needs to hand over a pound of rice, but we don't have rice on us, Zhao Guodong had to hand over a bag of small sausages that Ma Tao gave us before, a bag of small sausages has ten can be exchanged for ten catties of rice, after paying the fee, we still have seven left, with seven sausages we three

The people swaggered into the residential area.

The residential area is obviously much cleaner than the shack area outside, and the people who enter and exit here are all dressed in clean and neat clothes, and the survivors here are not like those survivors in the shack area with indifference and numbness on their faces, most of them have smiling faces, but these smiling faces are very hypocritical.

The entry of the three of us immediately attracted the attention of a thin man crouched on the side of the road, a man in his early thirties, skinny, horse-faced, and a ring of buckteeth in his mouth, who craned his neck to look at the three of us for a few moments and then quickly walked towards the three of us.

Seeing someone walking towards us, the three of us glanced at each other and cheered up.

"Three brothers, if I'm not mistaken, you're newcomers to the gathering place, aren't you?" The man walked up to us enthusiastically and asked.

It may be that the idea I instilled in the fat man just now has played a role, and the fat man frowned and said vigilantly: "Is there how?" What do you want? ”

The man was not annoyed when he saw the fat man's attitude, he still smiled and said: "This brother, you don't have to be nervous, I have no malicious intentions, let me introduce myself first, I am Hao Ren." ”

The fat man looked at the man who claimed to be Hao Ren with a smile and said, "Bucktooth boy! Don't fool me, the fuck, it's the first time I've seen someone like you, and I said I'm a good person. ”

The bucktoothed man showed a hint of embarrassment on his face and then said with a smile: "Brother, you misunderstood, I mean my surname is Hao, and my single name is a benevolent character, Hao Ren!" ”

Only then did the fat man react, and looked at the thin man named Hao Ren with strange eyes and said, "Your name is really unusual!" ”

"Hmmm! No way! The name was given by my parents! That's it! Hao Ren said helplessly.

"Brother Hao Ren, let's talk about it, why did you suddenly stop the three of us!" I asked.

"I don't mean anything else, I saw that the three brothers have just arrived, and they must not know much about the situation in the HB gathering place, I can be the tour guide of the three so that the three of them can understand and integrate into our HB gathering place as soon as possible." Hao Ren said with a grin.

"What about the pay?" I narrowed my eyes and said.

"The reward is three catties of rice! As long as three catties of rice, I will take three of them around the HB gathering place! Hao Ren stretched out three fingers and said with a smile.

"Are you familiar with the situation inside the HB Colony?"

"Familiar! Very familiar! I'm a guy from S City myself! Hao Ren hurriedly said.

I touched my chin and thought, "Okay! I've hired you! After speaking, he shook his head towards finding shareholders.

Zhao Guodong took out three ham sausages and threw them to Hao Ren, Hao Ren hurriedly caught the three ham sausages, looked at the chicken ham sausage in his hand and swallowed his saliva, chicken ham sausage is a good thing in the gathering place, although it is just three small roots, at least it can be exchanged for three catties of rice, and the price is a little better, and it can be sold more.

Putting away the three chicken ham sausages, Hao Ren's face smiled even more, although these three were not dressed well, they were really rich people.

"You've got the pay, let's go!" I spoke up.

Hao Ren smiled when he heard this, and led the way in front, introducing the situation in the gathering place as he walked.

"There are now four great forces in the gathering place, and these big forces are H

Huang Shengyong, head of the 368th Regiment of the B station, and ......"

"You don't need to say this, I know everything, say something I don't know!" I interrupted Hao Ren with a loud voice.

"Well, I'll tell you something you don't know, in addition to the four major forces in the gathering place, there is also a secret control area, this control area is very mysterious, it is not subject to any forces, even Huang Shengyong can't order them."

"Huh? What else is there for a place? Do you know the origin of this mysterious control zone? ”

"You joked, I'm just a small person, how can I know the origin of this mysterious control area, but everyone in the gathering place guesses that several major forces must know the origin of this mysterious control area."

"Do you know what this control zone is for?" I continued.

"I don't know about this, but there are rumors that there seems to be a research room in this restricted area, and some of the people who live in it are weirdos in white coats and masks." Hao Ren recalled.

"Wearing a white coat and a mask, he mysteriously established a research room." There was a hint of hesitation on my face.

Zhao Guodong on the side also frowned, he lowered his head and began to think about something.

"Can you take us to this zone now?" Zhao Guodong suddenly raised his head and said.

"It's all said to be a control zone! How could I possibly have the ability to bring you here for a visit! If you get within thirty meters, you will be shot by the guards inside. Hao Ren smiled bitterly.

"And where is this control area located?" Zhao Guodong said.

"The location in the northwest corner, where the Tuo River is nearby! You don't really want to go to the restricted area, do you? Hao Ren was a little surprised.

"Nope! Brother Hao Ren, you think too much, we are just curious to ask! I explained out loud.

"That's good! That's good! The Three Brothers Exclusion Zone is really not something for us people to snoop on! Hao Ren said uneasily.

I didn't speak, just smiled and nodded at Hao Ren.

Hao Ren secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, so he smiled and continued to take the three of us around the gathering place, and said in front that the gathering place was very large, about ten times the size of the Red Star Base, and of course the population was dozens of times that of the Red Star Base.

The landform of the HB gathering place is actually similar to that of the Red Star Base, which is surrounded by danger on three sides and flat on one side, but the three sides of the Red Star Base are two hills and one side is a cliff, while the HB gathering place is surrounded by water on three sides, and the landform of the HB gathering place is a prominent inverted triangle.

To the north of the HB gathering place is the Tuo River, which is known as the mother river of S City, with a total length of 587 kilometers and a basin area of 27,300 square kilometers, which shows that no zombies can swim across the Tuo River and enter the gathering place from the north.

To the south of the gathering place is the Taiping River, a tributary of the Tuo River, which is not as big as the Tuo River, but it is about 44 kilometers long, and there are shelter forests and green belts on both sides, so zombies can't get over.

As for the west side, there will be no zombies in the Zhengding Cha River, and we also entered the HB gathering place from the Cuiping Bridge on the Cha River, and finally the south side is the artificially built wall from the west gate of Cuiping Road to the Tuohe River, which is higher than the second wall of the Red Star Base, about 18 meters or so, all of which are made of reinforced concrete.
