Wheat?

Lin Mu smiled dumbly, he didn't come here to grab wheat. He glanced at the young man, and suddenly saw that the young man's face was a little red, and he was trying to suppress his cough. With a heart fluttering, he reached into his backpack and touched it, and he pulled out a box of aspirin from the storage space.

"We don't want your wheat, if we can, we'd like to borrow your storehouse or garage, and we'll leave here tomorrow morning!"

As he spoke, he threw the box of aspirin to the bearded man and said, "This is an anti-inflammatory, if you are lucky, it should cure your son's illness!" ”

Although the man in front of him was full of beard and couldn't see his face clearly, he could tell from his eyebrows and eyes that he was related to the young man.

The bearded man glanced at the English printed on the pill box twice, and his face immediately showed surprise. He glanced at the young man, stretched out his hand to Lin Mu, and said, "My name is Seth, and this is my brother Emmett!" ”

Is it a brother? Not father and son?

Hearing this, Lin Mu was a little embarrassed. Stretching out his hand to hold Seth, he nodded and said, "Mr. Seth, my name is Lin Mu, according to what I just requested, this box of medicine is considered my payment, do you approve of this deal?" ”

Seth was not an ignorant person who came out of the shelter, and in the face of the speed that Lin Mu had just shown, how could he dare to say anything to refuse?

After a moment's hesitation, he raised his left hand and pointed to a tall warehouse about a hundred meters away across from the house where he lived.

"My brother needs these medicines, you can stay in the garage tonight, but ......"

In the face of his hesitation, Lin Muchen pleaded: "Please rest assured, Mr. Seth, if there is nothing urgent, we will definitely not disturb you and your family!" ”

Hearing this, Seth and Emmett looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. With the strength shown by the forest curtain, if you really want to do something bad, why do you need to make such a guarantee?

"Emmett, you take Mr. Lin Mu to the garage."

After giving an order to the freckled Emmett, Seth turned his head to look at Lin Mu, bowed slightly, and said, "Mr. Lin Mu, if I can, I have to repair the fence that you broke as soon as possible!" ”

"Of course, it's your freedom, and if you need any help, please let us know!" To put it politely, Lin Mu beckoned to the armored reconnaissance vehicle in the distance.

**

"I used to have a farm like this, I raised some cattle, I planted some corn, and just when I thought I would live like this for the rest of my life, the catastrophe struck, and I still can't forget the big explosion in New York, which seemed to shine brighter than the sun!"

In the spacious garage, accompanied by the roar of the generator, old Carl sat on a pile of hay, illuminated by electric lights, and was telling a story.

"And then? And then what? ”

In front of him, surrounded by four children, ranging in grade from six to twelve, were the owners of the farm, the children of Seth.

"And then, because of those terrible monsters, I had to run away with my son, and I took him all the way west ......" With a look of emotion, the elder Carl began to tell the stories that had happened to him, and of course, he cut out what should not have been heard by the child.

The other side

Inside the garage, Seth withdrew his gaze from old Carl and his own children, looked down at the map on the table, raised his hand to one place, and frowned: "Mr. Lin Mu, if you want to cross Lake Hudson, I suggest you go south, through Albany all the way to the vicinity of South Shodak, where the bridge will be relatively safe!" ”

After a moment of silence, Lin Mu sighed in his heart. If you follow the other side's direction to the south, you will have to walk at least more than 100 kilometers to reach the place where you cross the river, and there is no guarantee that there are no problems with the bridge there.

Turning his head to look at the sky outside the warehouse, Lin Mu stretched out his right hand and shook it with Seth, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, thank you for your help, Mr. Seth!" It's not too early now, and I think your kids should be sleepy! ”

Seth didn't say anything, but he looked at his children frequently, obviously a little uneasy about their conversation with Carl Sr.

"Good night then, Mr. Lin Mu!"

Slightly relieved, Seth glanced at the armored reconnaissance vehicle parked on the side, and left with his child.

Although Lin Mu and Old Carl are very friendly, they have already seen the cruel Seth in the world today, and they don't want to be too deeply involved with them.

"How? Is there a better route? ”

Old Carl walked to Lin Mu on crutches, and when he shook his head slightly, he patted the sturdy shell of the armored car, and sighed: "It seems that we have to rely on it to force our way through the city, these damn monsters, the speed of evolution is too fast!" ”

In this regard, Lin Mu thought so. Whether it's mutants or human-transformed deformants, they evolve so fast that they terrify all the surviving humans.

According to Carl Sr.'s memory, when he followed a convoy through Albany more than half a year ago, there were no third-phase deformed people in that city, and now, there were at least five terrifying monsters of that size.

If there was only one, Lin Mu would be fully confident that he would take out it with his power armor. But if it's five? He felt that it would be good if he had a chance to run for his life.

Power armor is not invincible individual equipment, and the energy of nuclear batteries restricts its movement. High-intensity combat will speed up the energy consumption, and when it runs out, it is just a solid iron shell.

Although two nuclear batteries were looted from the exhibition hall, through David's test, the energy in the two nuclear batteries added together was only less than 70% of the full value of only one nuclear battery.

If the scout equipment on the car could be re-functioning, he would have the confidence to break into the city with a large number of deformed people. The only question is, David, the damn guy, can fix them by tomorrow morning.

Thinking of this, he knocked the armored reconnaissance vehicle twice, and a moment later, a ghost-like face poked out of the window.

"What's the matter?"

Looking at his half-scorched and half-normal face, Lin Mu snorted and said, "Remember what I said before, before tomorrow morning, I want to see that the reconnaissance equipment on the car can work again!" ”

Hearing this, David's only remaining eyes rolled, and he smiled dryly: "BOSS, don't worry, if there are no accidents, I guarantee that the reconnaissance system will be newer than new tomorrow morning!" ”

"Let's hope so!"

Shaking his head, Lin Mu saw that Old Carl was already sleeping on a pile of hay wrapped in a blanket, so he stretched his waist and walked to the door of the warehouse.

"Boom...... Boom ......"

Suddenly, there was the roar of the engine in the distance, and Lin Mu looked intently, on the road outside the farm, a train of lights slowly approached from a distance in the direction in which he and the others came.

Moments later, there was a crashing sound from the fence at the edge of the farm, and the convoy dismounted and headed straight for Seth's house.

The convoy during the day?

With the help of the lights of Seth's house, he recognized several of the cars in the convoy as the one that had been chased by the deformed men during the day.

I saw these cars parked in front of Seth's house, and the people in the cars pushed the doors one after another, and the quiet night immediately became noisy.

"It scares me so much! Almost died! ”

"It's all that damn bitch! We almost died! ”

"I'm dying of hunger, let's get something to eat in this house!" ……

Seeing them gathered at the door of the house, Lin Mu frowned, took out the Colt python from the storage space, and walked towards Seth's house.
