Chapter 143: The Last Resort
On the night when Tan Shurun and they lived in the control room of the granary, in the middle of the night, it rained heavily, and the torrential rain poured for three or four hours, and the water level of the criss-crossing rivers outside the granary skyrocketed in an instant.
At the end of Roma's patrol, he saw that the people were asleep and were about to go back to his room to rest, but when he passed by the console, he saw Tan Shurun standing alone in front of the console, staring at the screen and not knowing what he was thinking.
Roma hesitated, but still approached the console, and the corner of his eye swept across the screen, and the monitor transmitted the picture in real time.
The ground was full of stumps and broken palms, and the white walls were covered with blood, which was shocking, and finally he turned his eyes on the group of people hiding in the stairwell, full of suspicion.
The monitor at the corner of the third floor to the second floor does not work properly, so the picture that the monitor can capture is categorically cut off from the door panel blocking the corner.
Therefore, they can't see what is behind the door panel, what is it that attacked the group of people in Zhanhuan, the lethality is so huge. And what made Rome feel even more strange was that the people of the Zhan family, not staying in the prosperous and safe North City, came here, what were they doing?
Thinking of this, Roma couldn't help asking, "Little book, what are you going to do with those people outside?" ”
Tan Shurun's eyes flashed slightly, and his fingertips kept rubbing the edge of the black button, and asked rhetorically: "What do you want?" ”
Roma, who was focusing on the surveillance video, didn't see the hatred flashing in Tan Shurun's eyes, and blurted out the idea subconsciously and asked, "Or?" Shall we go out and do a favor? ”
Perhaps, this is a godsend, they can take this opportunity to negotiate terms with Zhan Huan, Rome thought, Zhan Huan is a Zhan family after all, if he can catch the line of Zhan Huan, with the huge power of Zhan Huan behind Zhan Huan, maybe it will be of great help to his plan.
"Roman, did I say that the granary of the delta is the industry of the warriors."
On the screen, the man covered in blood slowly raised his head from between his arms, looked at the monitor in silence, and his gloomy and cold gaze almost passed through the lens, turning into a sharp blade to the ...... standing behind the monitor She......
Tan Shurun was indifferent and asked Roma: "Now, what are you going to do, the robber will take the things of the master's family and negotiate terms with the master's family?" ”
Obviously, the tone of Shurun's tone was quite flat, but Rome read a hint of ridicule in it, and he suddenly woke up that he was negligent.
This granary originally belonged to the name of the Zhan family, and now, Tan Shurun's action of taking away the granary with them has undoubtedly taken them to the opposite side of the Zhan family! Rome regretted his hindsight, and suddenly looked at Tan Shurun, but saw that there seemed to be sadness flashing in the corners of Tan Shurun's eyes, but before he could take a closer look, soon, Tan Shurun returned to indifference.
……
Tan Shurun clenched his fingertips, and there was an inexplicable pleasure of revenge in his heart, looking at the man who had lived on the top of the clouds for a long time, this man named Zhan Huan, who hated to cut her with a thousand knives before he felt happy, was hiding in the staircase compartment in embarrassment at the moment, and the hatred and disgust in his eyes were all too familiar to her.
Every day in her previous life, she lived under the eyes of Zhan Huan.
"Xiaoshu, do you have any holiday with this Zhanhuan?" Luo Ma had already seen that something was wrong with Tan Shurun, and after hesitating for a long time, he didn't want to ask more, but this was at least related to the survival of the people, so he still opened his mouth. "Perhaps, now is a good opportunity to release the old suspicions."
"I don't have anything to do with him." Tan Shurun looked away from the man, and his expression was faint: "Roma, you must know that the man in your mouth is Zhanhuan, we don't need to save people......"
The man who stirred up the power of the entire China with his own strength, the small hidden beach of the delta could not trap him.
Tan Shurun felt that her tone was a little stiff, so he had to ease his mood and said, "Romma, we just need to watch the play." ”
After the words fell, the two people on the side of the operating table fell into a dead silence, a long silence.
Tan Shurun rubbed the black button, and finally withdrew his fingertips, and said, "Go to bed early, there are more things to deal with tomorrow, waiting for us to deal with them, we have to take care of our spirits." ”
Roma nodded in agreement, tomorrow's action was the top priority of their trip.
"If I go to the warehouse tomorrow, I think I should bring more people, and by the way, I can bring some food back to store it first, so as not to run again and waste time."
"I just took a look, and the food in the main control room can only support us for half a month at most. You're right, you should stock up on some food in the main control room first, so you don't have to be caught off guard if you have another accident. Tan Shurun suppressed his angry eyes at the man, but he casually instructed Roma: "Everything is arranged according to what you said, just do it." ”
No one can predict what the coming winter will be like, and how long it will spread across the continent.
Even she herself has already experienced a lifetime, but everything in Nanjing City, not to mention the previous life, she did not participate in the war Huan, everything they encountered when they were on a mission in Nanjing City, just now, those monsters with strange shapes that were created in the prison dungeon, the sudden bright light over the plains of Shihu Town, and even the devastating earthquakes and torrential rain and mudslides, these are all outside her cognition.
Nature may have re-endowed the city of Nanjing with a new and unknown world, but Tan Shurun is not sure about it.
"Romma, we want to make this granary an impregnable stronghold."
Rome was about to leave, and when he heard this, he paused, turned to look at Tan Shurun, and asked, "Stronghold?" ”
"Yes, do you remember what I said? From here, this granary will be the beginning of our journey to the center of power in the North City. ”
Stronghold? The center of power? Luo Ma secretly pondered, compared to the deep mountains and old forests, the granary is not a little bit better, and at the same time, no matter which aspect, it is as Tan Shurun said, it is very safe. It would be great if the granary could be turned into a living base for the people in the future.
Luo Ma said seriously: "Okay, at that time, the whole country of China will know that there is a paradise in Nanjing City. ”
Hearing this, Tan Shurun smiled lightly at the corners of his eyes, but his eyes were a little self-deprecating and sad. She had just turned around and was about to leave, but Rama had thought of something, and suddenly returned to the console and asked Tan Shurun.
"Little book, do you have something on your mind?"
The question came unexpectedly, and Tan Shurun shook his head, which was regarded as a denial.
Roma turned sideways, read a trace of depression from Tan Shurun's smile, hesitated, or comforted him in his heart for most of the day, and said: "Actually, Xiaoshu, Da Gao and the fat man's departure is not your fault. ”
When the words fell, Tan Shurun's hand suddenly clenched into a fist, Rome saw it, so he had to pause, waiting for Tan Shurun to ease his mood, however, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: he was really right, today, although Tan Shurun is as calm as ever, and even laughs, but he is always melancholy, not laughing sincerely at all.
Thinking of this, Luo Ma continued: "Little book, the people also understand that you were forced to make a choice at that time. ”
At that time, the choice of 'sending two people to death' should have been made by him, a member of the Qing clan, but it was he who hesitated and retreated, so he pushed the charge of 'Da Gao and the fat man to death' on Tan Shurun's shoulders.
Rome muttered, "Little book, you, don't take it to heart. ”
……
Luo Ma only said a faint sentence, but it provoked a pause in the tip of the pen of the talker, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a helpless smile: "Wrong and good, after all, I am the one who killed, and I should pay for it." ”
Even if the price is not paid now, God will ask her for it at some time in the future.
However, there are no regrets.
The two ends of the scale, the infamy that may have been passed down for generations among the Qing people, and the short years in the main control room are quiet, and they do not belong to the same heavyweight at all.
What's more, at this time, the control of the granary is in her hands, once she thinks that the control of the granary has not been taken away by Zhanhuan, this realization is more comforting to her than paying any price.
……
The next day, Rome picked out the members of the team, and after taking them to be fully equipped, he and Tan Shurun led the eight-person team to the grain storage area at the other end of the plank road.
Before leaving, Tan Shurun suddenly thought of something, and specially instructed Qiqi to check the vents in each room to ensure that nothing can enter the main control room from the vents.
Kiki, who was left to take care of the house, was concerned about Roma, and after casually agreeing, she hurriedly ran to Roma and told him to be careful.
Looking at Kiki, who casually agreed to her advice, her temperament was still very jumpy, Tan Shurun couldn't help frowning, she was worried that Kiki would mess things up, but thinking of that day, Kiki swore to her that she would start to learn how to be a virtuous helper.
Tan Shurun thought that since she was willing to help Rome support the entire Qing clan, instead of letting Rome work so hard, then maybe give Qiqi some time, and she would eventually grow up.
"Perhaps, it's because I'm too worried."
Coming out of the room, Yue Yue, who walked to Tan Shurun's side, followed Tan Shurun's line of sight, raised his hand and patted her shoulder, and comforted: "It's okay, don't worry." I have checked all the windows and vents yesterday and there are no issues. ”
Tan Shurun was stunned, turned sideways, tilted his head to look at Yue Yue, and said in surprise: "Really? When did you do it...... These? ”
"After you fell asleep last night."
After falling asleep last night?!
Yue Yue pinched Tan Shurun's face, looked at her shocked appearance, and suddenly teased her: "Last night, you still hugged me, and you didn't let me get out of bed......"
The man's voice is very good, and at this moment, he is deliberately teasing the little girl, and he is becoming more and more demagogic, and there are people next to him who have pointed ears, and when they hear the end note, they suddenly look at them, and they are so frightened that they jump up, and they are angry and hurriedly raise their hands to cover Yue Yue's mouth.
"What are you talking nonsense?!" Tan Shurun's head was about to get bigger, and he glared at him more and more, and was angry: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”
Looking at the little girl's puffing appearance, the more and more her eyes became more and more gentle.
"It's obviously you who hug, dare to do it, do you dare to admit it? Beginning and abandoning? ”
"Ahh!!hh Don't use idioms indiscriminately! ”
Talking about Shurun is going crazy, why doesn't she know that she still has the habit of sleeping with people in her arms?!
Yue Yue laughed and didn't say anything, in fact, there was something to hold onto, Tan Shurun was very well-behaved when he slept, only wrapped in a small blanket, his hands on his chest, bowed down, and quietly shrunk in the corner of the bed, not even dreaming.
Yue Yue put his hand on Tan Shurun's shoulder, and then continued the previous topic, and said seriously: "The people have no opinion on the arrangement of distributing food every day equally. It's just that there are two girls who are about seven or eight months pregnant, and they may need to look in the warehouse to see if there are any medicines. ”
Probably Yue Yue's words were magical, and Tan Shurun suddenly felt at ease, she didn't expect that Yue Yue would help her think about many things in advance, and even deal with them in advance.
This feeling of no longer being alone, the idea of someone to rely on has not been tasted for a long time, which makes her eyes a little hot.
Yue Yue saw that Tan Shurun didn't speak for a long time, helped her sort out the broken hair on her sideburns, and then asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"It's fine." Tan Shurun rubbed his eyes and told a very old-fashioned lie: "My eyes are in the sand." ”
