Chapter 599: Isolated from the World
Zhang Tao just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Jiang Feng with his eyes. Jiang Feng said: "When will you go back, if it is not long, the two of us want to go back with you." I'm worried that we're going down the wrong path again. If we go back together, we can take care of each other on the way. ”
"We can't go back yet, we haven't been out for a long time, and we haven't gotten what we want. We'll have to walk a little further and pick some food. Then I will be able to go back. I'm afraid I can't go with you. The person on the other side said.
Jiang Feng thought for a moment, and he said, "That's it, the two of us have nothing to do now, if the place you go to is not far away, the two of us will go with you, and then go back to the town together, what do you think?" ”
"Well......" The person in the lead on the other side looked at the other people around him, hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and said, "If you don't mind, then of course it's fine." With the two of you, if you encounter danger, you can deal with it better, we people are very weak. ”
"No problem, if you can help, you will definitely help. Then let's go now, I don't know which way to go? Jiang Feng said.
After that, they began to move, and those people led the way, and Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao followed. Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao didn't speak, just followed. The five of them had the heart to discuss, but because Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao were too close, it was inconvenient for them to say anything, so they could only rush silently.
Obviously, the place they were going to was still a little far, and it was not the way Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao had been when they came. Along the way, I encountered some creatures here, and I also encountered living corpses. With Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao here, naturally there will be no danger. After a period of travel, they arrived at their destination, which turned out to be a large field of farmland.
Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao glanced at each other, and naturally thought in their hearts. The two of them didn't say anything, but the other five people were happy. They said a few words to Jiang Feng and began to act. This farmland is full of crops, and all you need to do is harvest them.
At harvest time, it is natural to spread out a little. At this time, the members of this squad naturally have the opportunity to discuss. They've wanted to talk about it for a long time, and now they finally have time.
"Brother Yuan, what are those two people going to do, why are they following us. I guess it's trying to disadvantage us. ”
The leader is called Yuan Quan, who is in his thirties and has dark skin, and while harvesting grain, he said, "It shouldn't be, don't worry so much." Those two people are very powerful, and the five of us are tied together, which is not enough for people to fight with one hand. We don't have any good things, and we're not afraid of people's worries. If it weren't for these two of us, we wouldn't have been here so soon. Hurry up and get to work, and when the harvest is complete, hurry away. ”
"But I always feel weird. The two of them must have a plan, otherwise, what would they do with us. I don't believe they have any purpose, just to help us, that's impossible. ”
"I don't need you to say it, I know they have a purpose. But that doesn't matter now. I believe that the two of them will say, and when the time comes, they will say whatever they know, and it should be fine. Let's get to work. Yuan Quan said.
All five of them were working hard to harvest more grain. Jiang Feng found that they didn't have any space items, and they all used the big cloth bags they brought to harvest the grain here. The main grains here are wheat and corn, but there are also potatoes and turnips. Yuan Quan's team is mainly engaged in harvesting corn and wheat.
After working for a while, Yuan Quan's team, everyone harvested a lot. Among the tools they brought with them were the kind of stretchers that were carried by two people. Put the grain on it and carry it away. They also carried large bags on their backs, which they used to carry food. After that, they started walking back.
The weight is very heavy, so naturally I can't go fast. Fortunately, the people in this team still have strength. They carried the grain and hurried back as fast as they could. Even then, I didn't get back before dark. After dark, they did not dare to stop, but continued to walk, and in the night, to the place where they lived. Naturally, monsters appeared on the way, but they were all solved by Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao.
In the middle of the night, they approached the town where Yuan Quan's team lived. There are lights in the town, and the town also has its own walls, which are basically made of logs. Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao still followed, heading towards this town.
At the entrance, there were guards, but they didn't bother it, but they just took a little food. Yuan Quan's team, accompanied by smiling faces, did not dare to lose his temper with these gatekeepers. When they were inside, they hurried to their place of residence.
The house is a self-built room, all made of wood. After coming to Yuan Quan's residence, Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao saw that there were still some people in the two-story building made of wood where they lived. There were both men and women, and when they saw Yuan Quan and them coming back, they also brought back a lot of things, so they hurried over to help. You can tell from the smiles on their faces that they are happy.
Yuan Quan arranged for Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao to sit down first, and then went to deal with the grain himself. This house is not very good, but it is bigger. It was built by itself in the open space, and there was no shortage of wood, so it was natural to build a larger one. Jiang Feng's divine thoughts easily swept through the entire house and figured out the situation here. Even some of the nearby situations, Jiang Feng figured it out.
After Yuan Quan dealt with the food matter, he came back to find Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao. first said a few kind words, and then Yuan Quan said: "If the two of you have something, you can talk about it." If I can help, I'll do my best to help. ”
Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao were not surprised. After all, no one is stupid, the two of them followed for no reason, and they also helped deal with monsters, there must be a purpose. Now people have taken the initiative to ask, and they also want to solve this matter as soon as possible. Otherwise, they won't be at ease.
"You don't have to worry, neither of us has any ill will. You don't have anything worth it either. We really don't know the way, and we want to find someone who knows the way to walk together. Also, we both want to talk to you about the situation. Can you tell us a little bit about this sincere situation? Jiang Feng said.
Yuan Quan frowned, as if he was not satisfied with what Jiang Feng said. He said, "There's nothing to say about the situation in the town. Nothing has changed recently. It is still Li Datou who controls this town. Recently, there have been no powerful monsters attacking here, and it is very calm. Nothing happened in the vicinity. Life is still so difficult, unlike those of you who have the ability, we can't compare. ”
"Then do you know where the biggest base from here is?" Jiang Feng asked.
"Base? The biggest place is Baiquan City, where there are more people, and it is relatively safe, and there are only many people with high strength. However, there are also a lot of fees there, and people like me are not suitable to go there. Yuan Quan said.
"What about the farther out, do you know the farther outhath?" Jiang Feng continued to ask.
Yuan Quan seemed to suddenly understand something, he smiled bitterly twice, and then said, "Both, you guys also think too highly of me." Although we go into the forest to find food, the area where we can go is limited, and it is where others go, and further afield, we can't go at all. There's nothing to go to. Where people of your strength can reach, we can't go. Our knowledge of this forest is absolutely incomparable to yours. If you want to know what's in the depths of the forest, I can't tell you. I'm afraid there is no one to tell you. Everyone is trapped in this forest, and if you live for a day, even if it is a day, you can't get out. ”
Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao glanced at each other, and they had a realization in their hearts. Jiang Feng asked, "Then what do you think of this world?" ”
"I don't think much about it. Who knows what the hell this place is. All of a sudden, the forest was full of terrible creatures and monsters. All of a sudden, people have become monsters. It's nice to be able to survive. I used to want to go out of the forest to see it, but I couldn't get out at all, so I could only stay here. In fact, not being able to get out is not necessarily a bad thing. There are so many powerful creatures here, it is estimated that the outside of the forest will be more dangerous, and if you go out, you may not have a good life. Yuan Quan said.
Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao, who had already had a guess in their hearts, have now confirmed their guesses. Jiang Feng knew what kind of place he was in now. I just didn't expect that there would be such a place.
"You've lived in this forest for six or seven years, and you haven't gone out, you don't know what it's like outside, right?" Jiang Feng said.
"yes, who knows what's going on out there. You two don't know what's going on out there, do you? Hehe, I can't get out here. Maybe after a few decades, there will be enough strong people to emerge before it will be possible to go out. Yuan Quan said.
"It's really not easy for you to live here since the great changes in heaven and earth, you haven't gone out, and you still survive." Zhang Tao said this. This made Yuan Quan feel puzzled.
When Yuan Quan didn't understand what Zhang Tao meant, Jiang Feng said: "You must think that this is not the earth, but all of you here, along with the city and the land around the city, have traveled to a new world together, right?" ”
"Isn't that so?" Yuan Quan asked rhetorically. For Yuan Quan's thoughts, Jiang Feng had no surprises. He'd been in the thick of things like this before, so it wasn't surprising. It's just that Jiang Feng didn't expect that in this mountain forest, there are still people in the city.
Jiang Feng smiled slightly and said, "The two of us are from outside the forest. Here, it's still the Earth. Do you understand what I mean? ”
"What? Just kidding. You two are really from outside the forest, so are you the natives of this world? Yuan Quan said in surprise.
"I've told you that this is still the earth, what do we mean by being the aborigines here. We're both just like you. The people of the land of Shenzhou, the descendants of Yan and Huang. I don't even understand this. Zhang Tao said.
Yuan Quan was indeed stunned, Jiang Feng said: "You have not crossed over, you are still on the earth. It is not that you have crossed over, but that outside the city where you live, there are large mountains and forests. Land that was once unavailable, or land that was once invisible, suddenly pops up and surrounds the city you live in, making you think you've crossed over, when it's not. As long as you can get out of the mountains and forests, you can see other cities. ”
Yuan Quan was stunned for a while before he reacted. He looked very excited, and repeatedly confirmed whether what Jiang Feng said was true. If it is true, then as long as you go out, you will be able to be safe, and you don't have to live this difficult life anymore. As soon as I thought about this, I suddenly realized another problem, a very puzzled question.
"If it's still on earth, it's just an extra mountain forest. Even if the scope is large, I don't know how many years have passed, and no one has come in. It's impossible for planes not to fly in, and it's impossible for the army not to fly in. Why didn't anyone come in and save us. You two are lying. Yuan Quan said.
"The people in this city have become living corpses, monsters in your mouth, mutated creatures, and other monsters. This is true here, and the rest of the globe is the same. The previous order has completely collapsed. There are living corpses everywhere, monsters everywhere. It's not easy for people to manage themselves, and where is the ability to manage others. Even now, some bases, many gathering points, have been formed. But there is still a threat from living corpses and monsters. Life isn't necessarily better than here. Naturally, no one will come in and save you. Jiang Feng said.
Yuan Quan was silent, thinking about Jiang Feng's words. If the whole world suffers a disaster, it is true that there is no ability to rescue it. If what Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao said was true, even if the world had become dangerous, there was still a great attraction outside the forest.
"You're all telling the truth? Is it really still on Earth, just more land than it was before? Are you really from outside the forest? Yuan Quan asked. He still didn't believe it.
Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao answered him very seriously. Yuan Quan felt that he had a lot to digest. Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao didn't plan to say anything more to Yuan Quan. The two of them planned to go and see the situation in this town, but in fact, the main thing to look at was the surrounding situation.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao set off. They walked around the town, and it was still a forest, and there were mountains in the distance. The two of them didn't go through the mountain forest at all, they were still in the middle of the mountain forest. I don't know how far away it is. In the midst of these mountains and forests, there are towns, and there are larger cities. The people here are completely isolated from the world. They can't get out, and no one else can get in.
