Chapter 3 Confrontation outside the village
Human beings claim to be the most successful group of creatures, but everything in front of them makes people feel that this idea is too naΓ―ve, only about a year after the end of the world, nature has shown the power that has been unchanged for hundreds of millions of years, the erosion of the weather in the four seasons, the growth of plants, coupled with the destruction of human beings themselves and monsters, the traces of human beings have been gradually erased, the ruins and broken walls are covered by weeds and vines, the metal has been corroded, and the cultivated land has been turned into wilderness again, it is difficult for normal people to think that human beings have lost their hegemony for such a short time, The world forsaken them.
The roaring beast was slowly moving forward on the road, in order to take care of the mother and daughter, Meng Qingqiang did not drive too fast, and the daughter who could communicate could not specifically say the location of the village, in desperation, Meng Qingqiang had to return to the gas station, and then slowly followed the smell left by the gas station to the destination.
The mother who turned into a black hand along the way didn't say a word, just hugged her daughter tightly, maybe the final parting made her cherish the warmth in front of her even more, but the young blind girl kept talking loudly with Meng Qingqiang.
"Uncle Meng, you are so powerful, my mother said that there are many, many terrible monsters there, and I also heard terrifying screams, but after you came, the sound was gone, did you kill them all?"
"Uncle Meng, what are you riding, why is it louder than a tractor."
"Uncle Meng, do you have any children? Boys, girls? A few... β
"Uncle Meng, where are you from? I can't see, I've never been far away... β
"Uncle Meng, you...
Countless questions shouted out of the girl's mouth, Meng Qingqiang could only chat with her without a match, he never thought that the figure who was quietly curled up in a small corner was so outgoing, could it be that he was stuffy in that conference room, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, he likes children, children are innocent, they can always make him happy, he thought of his son again, and he doesn't know how the little guy is now? But he believed in Meng Le, because he had grown into a little man. Thinking of this, Meng Qingqiang couldn't help but speed up.
The warm wind of spring carried a faint sweetness, but it did not affect Meng Qingqiang to follow the smell to find the place that had invited him.
The tall walls, made of massive boulders and concrete, and surrounded on three sides by steep cliffs, are a great place to stay in the apocalypse, and it's no wonder that even the research sub-base with a regular army has survived the attacks of the mutants, but there are still a group of survivors living in this place.
In the distance, the wooden watchtower on the fence sounded the alarm, and some men ran up the wall with weapons in hand, staring at the approaching beast and the tall figure riding on it.
"Hey, there's a bucket in the back of the car, and there are two people sitting in it, why do I look like Aunt Cui?"
"I look like it, don't you see that little blind man next to Zhenzhen?"
"No, Aunt Cui and Zhenzhen weren't the other days ago..." The man who spoke did not finish his sentence, and the villagers who were still gossiping on the side just now also closed their mouths with a stupid expression on their faces.
"Okay, didn't you all vote to agree with the village's decision? Now with the face of a dead father, what are you doing, take the gun in your hand, that kid on a bike, is the guy who stole our gas from the gas station. Fourth, you go back and tell your father, just say that the kid at the gas station is here, and... I also brought back Aunt Cui and Zhenzhen with my mother, go quickly! β
Soon, Meng Qingqiang came to the wall, he squinted his eyes and looked at the nervous villagers above, did not speak, just got out of the car and lit a cigarette.
Seeing that a cigarette was about to run out, the man who had just scolded everyone on the wall couldn't hold back and shouted, "Below, didn't you smoke oil and leave?" How did you come back again? β
"Hehe, where's the old man? I remember he invited me, huh? We happened to be passing by, so I came to visit, and by the way, I talked about my harvest this time. β
Looking at the only dirt road that could only lead here, and Meng Qingqiang, who was obviously not good, the man gritted his teeth, waved his hand, and said viciously: "Shoot, kill this oil thief!" β
The surrounding villagers all looked at each other, and an older man said, "This is going to be killed?" Don't wait for the old village chief? Besides, there are Zhenzhen and the two of them sitting in the back. β
"What I said is the same as what my father said, let you shoot and shoot, so close to your aiming point, if you really accidentally hurt the two of you, there is no way, anyway, they are all people who want to die." After speaking, he picked up the rifle in his hand and took the lead in shooting.
There was a burst of gunfire, the mother instantly blocked in front of her daughter, and the little girl also squatted on the ground and covered her ears, the smoke and dust dissipated, only to see Meng Qingqiang still looking leisurely, holding a cigarette butt that was about to burn out, leaning against the seat of the beast, and what was surprising was that his front was covered with dense bullets, which were suspended in mid-air as if embedded in a transparent wall.
Everyone who saw this scene couldn't believe their eyes, and this dream-like scene really appeared in front of them. "Spit out", the cigarette butt fell to the ground, and at the same time, the bullets suspended in mid-air also followed with a "whoosh" sound, falling all over the ground, the man who shot just now, turned around and shouted a few times, and soon, two bazookas were sent to the wall, and then under the man's order, shot down, at this time no one said anything that would affect the two behind them, the scene just now, obviously made these people frightened a lot.
The explosion sounded, and another puff of smoke and dust kicked up, everyone held their breath and stared without blinking, they wanted to know if the monster was dead, but they were disappointed again, the same transparent wall blocked countless shrapnel, looking at the semi-circular pit in front of the "wall", everyone understood that not only the shrapnel did not have the slightest effect, but even the shock wave of the explosion could not pass through this layer.
Looking at the launch tube in the hands of the people on the wall, Meng Qingqiang smiled: "I can't see it, you still have a lot of things here, are there any more fierce?" After waiting for a while, seeing that the people on the wall did not move, he smiled again: "Since you are not performing, it will be my turn." β
I saw him reach out and click a few times on the on-board computer of the beast, and two small baffles suddenly rose on both sides of the headlights in front of the beast, and then everyone only saw two tails of smoke shoot out, and the opposite wall exploded a big hole in an explosion, and some of the people on the wall did not react for a while, several people fell down and fell to the ground for a long time without moving, and the man reacted quickly, and lay down for the first time, but he was also shocked with gold stars in his eyes and ringing ears. Seeing that the power of the explosion was so ideal, Meng Qingqiang silently praised the Feng family, a weapon modification expert, in his heart.
After some shooting, the people in the village understood that the person in front of him was a monster, so I don't know who shouted, everyone ran down the wall in a smoke, and those who had a good relationship also knew that the people who fell down, those who were not popular at all, no one cared about them, so they could only lie on the ground and look at Meng Qingqiang, who was getting closer and closer, and the Cui family behind them, and begged for mercy loudly.
But Meng Qingqiang and Cui Ying ignored these people's pleas, only the blind girl Zhenzhen shook her head, judging which former acquaintance the voice of the plea came from.
