Chapter 14: Bafang Town
After turning on the long-distance warning function of the robot Qiuqiu, Zhang Zhen took Shelley to speed up, Hu Hai said that Bafang Town is the nearest "safety zone", and there are self-defense forces in the town to ensure the safety of the town, as long as you reach the town safely, you can trade.
Qiuqiu can warn of living creatures and zombies within a range of 300 meters, except for some zombies in the wasteland, everything is quite normal, Zhang Zhen felt a little bored and asked Shelley: "What are you going to do after vaccination?" ”
"What?" Shelley didn't seem to understand what Zhang Zhen meant.
Zhang Zhen smiled: "It's what you think about the future and what you want to do." ”
"Serve your master." Shelley replied without hesitation, and still looked very happy.
Although Zhang Zhen felt weird, his heart was beautiful, and he smiled: "I mean otherwise, for example, have you ever thought about doing something or getting something before?" ”
"Well......" Shelley thought for a moment and said, "No, I will be happy as long as I serve my master well." ”
Zhang Zhen is embarrassed, it seems that this little girl is really simple, but think about it, she can't go out if she lives in a cave every day, the only thing she needs to worry about is whether she will starve to death, and she really can't have any dreams.
"Attention, attention, there is an unknown vehicle approaching, and there are five people in the vehicle, armed with dangerous weapons." Qiuqiu suddenly issued a warning.
Zhang Zhen looked at his wrist, and the screen that popped up showed that a Humvee was approaching behind him, with a speed of 120 kilometers per hour, and the car showed virtual images of five people and the outline of a gun.
"The speed is decreasing, and the target may be close to us." Qiuqiu reminded again.
Zhang Zhen drove the car to the side of the road and looked back, a car that looked like a Humvee was driving towards him, and there were five people in the car as shown in the bracelet, and large weapons similar to machine guns could be seen in the gallop.
Within a moment, the Humvee drove up and stopped in a steady deceleration, four men and a woman in Tongichi uniforms with a vulture badge on their arms.
The five people looked at Zhang Zhen and Shelley with novelty, and sitting in the passenger seat was a big man with a beard on his face, and said with a smile: "It's really funny, there are people riding bicycles on the road, and there is a little girl." ”
The people in the car let out a burst of laughter, but the female soldier held a sniper rifle but did not smile, looked at Shelley and then looked at Zhang Zhen and said, "Are you going to Bafang Town?" ”
Shelley lowered his head behind him and whispered to Zhang Zhen, "They should be the patrol of Bafang Town." ”
Zhang Zhen nodded at the female warrior who looked cold but didn't have much malice.
The female warrior frowned, "I hope you're not going to sell her." ”
Zhang Zhen suddenly saw a trace of murderous intent in the eyes of the female warrior, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, we just wanted to see if we could change something in the town." ”
"It's better to be so, it's not safe on the road lately, so I'd advise you to speed up." The female warrior stared at Zhang Zhen and turned her head back and stopped speaking.
The big man in the passenger seat smiled: "Our mother eagle is sentimental again, hey, boy, there is still more than half the way, you better use your strength to catch up." ”
"I think he's eating and running out of strength." One of the warriors smirked.
There was a burst of laughter from everyone in the car, and the Hummer roared away.
Zhang Zhen was confused, but it seemed that the other party was not a bad person, and he rode on.
"Shelley, how do you know they're on patrol?"
Shelley said: "The badge on their shoulders is very recognizable, my father told me a lot of things in Bafang Town, the vulture brigade often patrols outside Bafang Town to hunt zombies and beasts to ensure the safety of Bafang Town, but rarely takes care of robberies and the like." ”
"Damn, I don't care about zombies." Zhang Zhen didn't understand.
Shelley said: "In the last days, there is no rule of law, only rules, each place has different rules, many gangs live by looting, and those who occupy towns and cities also need to exchange resources, so no one wants to meddle outside their own territory, which will offend some gangs and cause unnecessary trouble, but they have their rules in their own territory, so non-interference in the wild has become a common rule." ”
"Horse, it is also said that there will be an angel of justice to maintain order, the end of this grass egg is really dangerous, sit tight, I'm going to speed up."
Zhang Zhen only felt threatened at this time, and even the patrol team with cars and guns didn't care about "idle business", so he couldn't expect to get help from anyone here, so it was better to hurry up and go to Bafang Town.
Shelley hummed, hugged Zhang Zhen's waist tightly, Zhang Zhen's legs began to rotate like fans, he really wanted to use his strength to eat.
There is no scene on the highway full of broken down cars as described in previous movies or novels, and the feeling of being empty can be driven by a supercar, which is estimated to have something to do with the fact that it has been 30 years after the disaster, and the materials that may be useful have been recovered.
Zhang Zhen doesn't have to worry about crashing or anything, except for bypassing some big damage to the road, most of the time just bury his head and ride hard, some small potholes have no effect on the chariot, and there is not even much bumpiness.
I don't know how long I rode in one breath, and a building appeared in the wasteland, which didn't look big from a distance, maybe it was the size of a small township in reality, and the highest should only be the third floor, but the roof looked like a cannon from a distance.
He took a breath and slowed down, there was a gravel road on the side of the road that led to Bafang Town, and it seemed that the only useful thing to get a map at that time was to leave the mountain pack and get on the road so as not to get lost and detour, but honestly, it was easy to get lost if there were no landmarks in this unfamiliar environment under the gray sky.
"Alert, a car approaching." Qiuqiu warned.
Zhang Zhen looked back and saw a dilapidated pickup truck rushing down the highway and hurriedly riding to the side.
The pickup truck did not have a roof, it felt like driving a tricycle, the driver was very arrogant, did not avoid it, and rushed directly in the middle of the road, bringing up a thick dust, and pulling a cow corpse in the compartment.
"Horses, bully Lao Tzu's bicycle." Zhang Zhen fanned the choking dust, spat his mouth, rode on, and continued to pedal.
Bafang Town has a ring of walls, which look like they are all made of scrap metal, and the tips are uneven like sharp blades.
There were several heavily armed men on duty in front of the gate, and although it was impossible to tell what guns they were, they were all modern firearms in appearance, and there were two machine guns fixed above the gate that looked to be of a large caliber.
There are two gates to control the entry and exit of the door, and everyone who enters and exits must be registered on a single device, some with fingers, and some with electronic devices on the wrist.
Zhang Zhen got off the bike with a little nervousness and walked to the entrance with Shelley.
"New faces, do you have a green shield?" The person in charge of registration looked at the two of them and asked.
"Not yet." Zhang Zhen said truthfully, Hu Hai said that Green Shield is a kind of intelligent wrist-worn device researched by Green Shield Company, which can detect the vital data of the human body, and can add agents to reduce radiation hazards, of course, it can also detect the degree of environmental radiation and other hazards, but they are all worn by wealthy people, and they are often used as ID cards.
"Fingers come in." The registrar holds a palm-sized electronic device with a small slot on it, from which a test strip resembles a new one appears.
Zhang Zhen stretched out his hand and pressed it, feeling that his fingers were slightly numb, and the registration staff prompted that it was completed.
The registration staff looked at the data and showed a hint of surprise, but did not show it, continued to change the test strip for Shelley to register, and after reading the data, he let it go.
Zhang Zhen didn't expect it to be so simple to let go, the cart looked at the scene in the town with an incredulous face, there were people dressed like beggars, there were people in bright clothes, there were cars that could be seen at a glance to be antiques, and there was a low-speed aircraft with no wheels like in science fiction movies half-suspended on the ground.
Shelley grabbed the corner of Zhang Zhen's clothes with one hand and held Qiuqiu with the other, and Qiuqiu was just as curious as Qiuqiu, looking left and right with a look of surprise, she had never seen so many people and so many strange things, of course, the light in her head did not count.
The person in charge of registration watched Zhang Zhen and Shelley slowly walk into the town, nodded his wrist and reported back in a secluded place: "There is a sheep from the old world who has entered the town, and the data has been sent. ”
The other party said unexpectedly: "Sheep, I haven't seen this for a long time, have you scanned the items you are carrying?" ”
"There are gold hunting guns, and there is a robot, and the preliminary judgment in the cargo compartment is that there may be food, and the cargo compartment probably has anti-scanning protection, so it is impossible to judge clearly."
