The unbearable night finally ended, and the moment the dawn broke, the black fog that shrouded the rope bridge disappeared without a trace.

This night, almost no one could sleep peacefully, and Hu Qi specially arranged for people to take turns guarding the bridgehead, first, to prevent recurrence, and secondly, to treat dead horses as live horse doctors, to see if they could wait for Laili's team.

However, the result was unexpected, the sun had just emerged, and the deep black fog that could swallow almost everything was quietly dispersed like the morning mist.

The fog cleared, revealing the full view of the rope bridge, as Laili said before, unremarkable, at the end of the rope bridge is the canyon on the other side, winding down, if nothing else, go to the end, it should be the famous fishing reservoir.

"What the is this?" Hu Qiang held a cigarette butt that had not been lit for a long time, walked up to the bridge and shook the ropeway, the rope bridge swayed, there was nothing peculiar.

Zheng Nannan spread his hands, thinking to himself that you ask me and I will ask who to go, I have long said that I will wait for the day to act, but it is a pity that Laili does not listen to him.

"What are we going to do next?"

Hu Qian is completely out of ideas, if Zheng Nannan's guess is correct, the black fog is the entrance to the hive, then now that the entrance has disappeared, the dome fishery is estimated to be a waste water reservoir, why are they keeping this group of people?

Zheng Nannan carried forward the traditional Chinese virtues and said with a smile: "Let's go and have a look inside." It's coming. ”

Hu Qiu observed his expression, but unfortunately there was no color on this kid's face, and he couldn't read anything else.

"What do you want me to do?"

Hu Qi snorted, lowered his voice and said: "Now this group of people is the closest to the two of us, you kid have to talk to me if you have any discoveries, I always feel that you seem to have some calculations." ”

"You're thinking too much." Zheng Nannan was happy, hugged Tang Garlic and Shu Onion, and said with a smile: "If you want to say kiss, I am closer to them, what is your humanoid bear close to me." ”

"I'm serious!" Hu Qi glared at him.

"You, how can you have so many secrets." Zheng Nannan stopped teasing him, shook his head, and said, "I'm the same as you, I don't know anything about this place, and I'm just guessing about the black fog." If the Black Mist is really the entrance to the hive, where is the exit? I've heard that where beehives appear, they always have some impact on the surrounding area, and now that the danger on the rope bridge is gone, we may be able to go down and have a look, maybe we can find some clues. ”

"For example?" Hu is not giving up.

Zheng Nannan glanced at him: "How do you know if you haven't looked at me yet?" ”

……

The hostess of the Deep Blue Hospital was abolished, and the gunmen began to stand in line.

The soldiers met last night, just because Hong Xiangcai's spearhead was directed at Zheng Nannan, which made them a little uneasy. After a night, Zheng Nannan did not become a monster, and the suspicions in the hearts of the gunmen naturally disappeared.

In this world where the jungle eats the strong, it is the norm to choose a tree, Hong Xiangcai has lost the ability to lead the Deep Blue Hospital, and these gunmen themselves are not strong, so they have to set their sights on Zheng Nannan and Hu Qiu.

Zheng Nannan was not interested in forming a gang, but Hu Qiu gladly accepted it, took the olive branch handed by the gunmen, and became the new owner of the Deep Blue Hospital.

"When we go back, you will be my second-in-command, and our brothers will run the hospital well, recruit troops, stock up on food and guns, sweep down the hoarse manor, and dominate the lower city." Hu forced the new official to take office, the spring breeze was proud, and he put his arm around Zheng Nannan's shoulders and began to blow water: "Don't you want to go to Shangcheng District?" When any of us have a gun and participate in a fart road race, our brothers and sisters will directly bring people in, and when we are tired of playing in Shangcheng, we will go to the roundabout, and we will sit in the village. ”

"You've got a bad brain." Zheng Nannan knew that he was talking nonsense, and he didn't care, so he scolded with a smile: "As long as you don't betray me, thank God." ”

"Tsk, your brother is really boring, can you turn the page." Hu Qiu's old face turned red, and the matter of leading the party has become a stain that he can't wash off.

Tang Garlic and Shu Onion followed behind and snickered secretly, and for a while they also felt a little emotionally about the impermanence of life and death.

Who would have thought that Hu Qiu, who was a prisoner at the bottom of the dark blue hospital a few days ago, has become the new master today.

Fortunately, the two of them followed Zheng Nannan, and the change of ownership of the Deep Blue Hospital had nothing to do with them.

……

Hu Qi is a person who thinks about old love, although I don't know what past he has with Hong Xiangcai, but judging from his behavior of arranging someone to take care of Hong Xiangcai, there must be a deep relationship between the two.

Zheng Nannan is not interested in other people's privacy, but he is inexplicably moved by Hu Qiao's iron man tenderness, which reminds him of many past events and old people, and he invisibly has a good impression of Hu Qi.

……

After simply replenishing water and food, the exploration team of the new generation of Deep Blue Hospital set off.

Unscathed, the group crossed the treacherous rope bridge of the previous night and descended along the narrow mountain road to the Yuchang Reservoir.

There were no accidents along the way, and the process was even a bit boring, but it made the gunmen armed to the teeth a little uncomfortable, as if they had rounded their arms, but ended up in a pile of cotton.

But then again, compared to the Laili team, who doesn't know life and death, and Hong Corianhua, who is now worse than death, everyone feels that there is nothing wrong with a boring journey.

The reservoir is large, like a round mirror, reflecting the surrounding canyon. Many caves are carved out of the cliff wall on one side of the reservoir, and the soft ladders between the caves are connected, and finally converge on the edge of a plank road.

Zheng Nannan walked over to check and found that the plank road had been destroyed for a long time, and the part hanging on the cliff wall was also rotten, even if they could find a way to go up, they were afraid that the plank road would not be able to support their weight.

"Doesn't that mean the dome fishery is thriving?" Sharman looked around, and everywhere was full of dilapidated and desolate feeling, how could he imagine the appearance of a crowded bazaar.

Tang Garlic followed behind the boss, and said in a low voice: "Maybe it's because of the beehive, it looks like it's been abandoned for a long time." ”

"By the way, where did you get the news?" Hu Qi suddenly remembered this stubble, and wondered: "I can easily tell you the information of the hive, but it is still true, what does that person think?" ”

"What's strange, the beehive can't be eaten, why are you hiding it?" Zheng Nannan looked puzzled, walked along the edge of the reservoir, and did not find anything abnormal.

"Boss, what are you looking for?" Shu Onion asked curiously.

Zheng Nannan frowned and thought for a while, and said, "What about the fish?" ”

"What?"

"Fish." Zheng Nannan pointed to the reservoir and said to the people with bewildered faces: "Didn't you say that this is the largest and only breeding farm within a radius of 100 miles?" How is it that such a large reservoir does not even have a single fish? ”

Hu Qiu's mind hadn't turned a corner yet, and he didn't understand what he meant by tangling with fish.

Zheng Nannan had no choice but to continue to explain his intentions: "The hive is on the rope bridge, and the people in the dome fishery may have taken action after discovering the hive, which caused everyone to disappear. But what about fish? You don't have to bring all the fish with you to enter the hive, right? ”

Hu Qi seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and wondered: "So you came down to look for fish?" That's why you passed the hive and didn't enter, and beat the fish back to the raw meat town to open a restaurant? ”

Tang Garlic was speechless, desperate for Hu Qiu's concerns.

Zheng Nannan sighed and said helplessly: "I mean, the scope of the hive's influence is larger than I imagined, if the fish in the reservoir are also affected by the hive and disappear, then we are actually in the affected range now, and the situation has not changed because of the disappearance of the black fog." ”

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Zheng Nannan's words pulled them into a panic again after the rest of their lives.

Hu Qiu understood after a little calculation, was stunned, and frowned: "Did you find out that it was wrong just now, or did you think of it before you came in." ”

"There was a guess before I came in, and I verified the guess after seeing the reservoir." Zheng Nannan said calmly.

"Which tendon is wrong with you, kid?" Hu Qi felt a little crazy, pulled Zheng Nannan to the side, and asked: "You were the one who didn't enter the black fog yesterday, and it was you who came in today knowing that there was danger, what do you want to do?" ”

"Trying to test another guess." Zheng Nannan was still tepid, and turned back to everyone: "You asked you to mark each other yesterday, haven't you forgotten?" Those who stayed behind don't count, and now each remembers the people around you. ”

The gunmen looked at each other, and when they heard the words, they did as they were said one by one, and they were automatically divided into groups of two.

Zheng Nannan glanced at Hu Qi and saw that his brows were deeply locked, as if he was still thinking about what he had just said, but he didn't know the point.

"Lao Hu, do you believe me?" Zheng Nannan asked.

Hu Qi hesitated for a moment and said, "Seriously, I believe you the most on the way here, but I'm really not sure now." ”

"Then I need you to trust me now." Zheng Nannan stopped laughing, and said with a straight face: "You haven't forgotten the red bird we saw outside the fishing ground yesterday, right?" To tell you the truth, I found some clues in the sandstorm on the way, but it was too chaotic at the time, and I wasn't sure if what I saw was real. It wasn't until Hong Coriander appeared yesterday that I was sure it wasn't a hallucination that day. ”

Hu Qiu raised his eyebrows and asked, "What did you find?" ”

"Riley." Zheng Nannan lit a cigarette, recalled the scene he saw in the sandstorm, and said, "There are two other people, I didn't see their faces clearly, but they feel very familiar." ”

Hu forced his mouth open, and the words came to his mouth and swallowed back.

"I asked Riley later, and Riley said that during the sandstorm they had found a shelter from the storm, a long distance from our convoy. But when I got lost in the sandstorm, it was Riley who rescued me, and I can't be wrong with my memory. ”

Hu Qi gasped and said in surprise: "Did you tell her about this?" ”

"I mentioned it." Zheng Nannan spat out a cigarette, and was also puzzled by this, and said: "I observed, she didn't lie, the Laili I saw in the sandstorm and the Laili who rescued us in the dead city are not the same person." ”

"But it's all Riley?" Hu is about to be dizzy again.

"Hmm." Zheng Nannan nodded, and said, "Just like the Hong coriander in the tent now is not necessarily the Hong coriander who set off with us." ”

"Clones?" Hu Qi's face changed, and suddenly the intelligent IQ occupied the high ground, and exclaimed: "The hive here can clone people? ”

Zheng Nannan shook his head and said, "I don't quite agree with the statement of cloning. ”

"What do you mean?"

"I can't explain it to you yet, so I need you to trust me. I only told you one person about these words, and Tang Garlic didn't know them. ”

Zheng Nannan threw away his cigarette butt and stood side by side with Hu Qi, the sun was dazzling, the water surface was sparkling, and the reflections of the two people were undulating.
