Chapter 41 Encounter a mercenary group, through the mountains and forests
After burying the zombie and the little girl together and supplying supplies, Xia Mi and his party set off again.
No one mentioned what happened in the circus again, but Xia Mi quietly changed. His expression was colder, but there was more sparkle in his eyes.
The off-road vehicle drove fast on a somewhat bumpy road, and several people in the car tacitly maintained silence. Looking at Xia Mi, who had a cold face, and glanced at Bai Jiang who closed his eyes and recuperated, Tuanzi finally couldn't help but persuade: "At that time, Bai Jiang did it to the zombies because he didn't know it, after all, it was also to ensure your safety." ”
Xia Mi's hand was pinched on the steering wheel, and her pink fingertips turned tense white because of the exertion. Seeing that she was a little touched, Tuanzi continued to say: "After all, it is a team of people, and it is more dangerous to leave your heart." ”
Xia Mi seemed indifferent, but during the next break, he threw a bottle of water to Bai Jiang. The tense atmosphere was broken by this small action, and Luo Fei, who had been worried, showed a bright smile: "Sister, how long will it take for us to arrive in L City?" ”
For a while, the eyes of several people were on Xia Mi because of Luo Fei's question.
Swallowing a mouthful of bread, Xia Mi opened the map he was carrying, and his voice was faint, "There are still three cities, and it will probably take a few days." ”
Luo Fei came over, staring at the map in Xia Mi's hand with a pair of big round eyes full of seriousness. Xia Mi also looked at him, thinking about the question of time in his heart.
Walking through the city is much slower than walking at high speed, and a month and a half has passed since the end of the world, and only wandering zombies are left in many cities. When they were looking for supplies, they had also found traces of others sweeping, and the materials they got were much less, Xia Mi knew in his heart that if they continued to delay like this, it would only be bad for them and not good.
According to Danzi, zombies will be massively upgraded in the last three months, and the longer they delay on the road, the less time they will have to build a base. If they can't strengthen their base before the zombies upgrade, they will inevitably suffer a devastating blow.
Thinking of this, she was slightly irritated. Drinking all the water in the bottle, before Xia Mi could speak, he saw Luo Fei raise his head from the map: "Sister, will it be faster for us to cross this mountain directly?" ”
Although he saw many zombies, Luo Fei's mind matured a lot, but after all, he was still a child in essence, and he was still a little excited to see the mountains and rivers he had never touched, Xia Mi looked at Luo Fei's fingers and frowned slightly.
The place where they are now is only separated by a mountain from L City, but the mountain road is difficult to walk, and there are many variables in the last days, once they can't find the way, they will face the situation of being trapped on the mountain, so Xia Mi didn't dare to gamble, but chose a more secure way to detour.
Raising his hand and patting Luo Fei's head, Xia Mi smiled slightly: "We don't know the way, and there is no mark on the map, if we are trapped in the mountains, it will be miserable." ”
Reminded by her, Luo Fei also thought of this, and lowered his head in some frustration.
Xia Mi looked amused, and just as he wanted to say something, he heard a voice from the woods next to him. With a silent gesture, Xia Mi protected Luo Fei directly behind him.
The voice was getting closer and closer, and the crescent moon in Xia Mi's hand was getting tighter and tighter. In a tense atmosphere, a man emerged from the woods.
"Oops! Why are you pushing me, the third child! I almost fell! ”
"Who do you blame for walking slowly!"
With the sound of swearing, four people came out. Most of the people in the last days were embarrassed, but they were wearing uniform black robes, and Xia Mi noticed that a red fox head was embroidered on the cuff on their right side.
It looks like a group, Xia Mi thought to herself. Just as she was looking at a few people, the four people also noticed Xia Mi and his party.
"The boss actually has a beautiful woman!"
The bald head of the four grinned, and his wet and sticky eyes stuck to Xia Mi's body like a sticky leech. Her eyes were slightly cold, and she tightened her hand holding the crescent moon.
The person known as the boss paused on Xia Mi's body, stretched out his hand and slapped it on the top of the bald head.
"Oops, boss, why are you beating me?!"
Ignoring his shouting, the person known as the boss raised his eyes and looked at Xia Mi, who had been silent: "Your Majesty is not strict, and the girl is abrupt." ”
He has a handsome face, and his gestures of apology are a little elegant, which makes it easy for people to have a good impression. Xia Mi looked at it coldly, but noticed that his cold eyebrows and greedy eyes flashed under his eyes.
People's manners can deceive people, but unintentional eyes can't deceive people. Xia Mi laughed slightly in her heart, holding her breath and forcing a little blush on her face: "It's okay." ”
The shy appearance is the most sultry, seeing her like this, the bald eyes are straight, and the corners of the mouth are suspiciously watered. In contrast, although the boss of the team is also a little moved, he is not as exaggerated as a bald head.
A trace of disgust crossed Xia Mi's eyes, but he had to be patient: "How many of them came down from the mountain?" ”
The bald head had already been half taken away by her three souls and seven spirits, and when she heard this, she immediately nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, do you want to go up the mountain, beauty?" There are a lot of beasts in the mountains, so come with me! I'm here to protect you! ”
came to doze off and send a pillow, Xia Mi was still thinking about passing through the mountains before, but now someone took the initiative to mention it. Just as he wanted to respond to his words, Xia Mi found that the merchant who had been acting as a background board walked out from behind him.
Shang Fu pursed his lips slightly, and knew that he was not in a good mood at a glance. He didn't know where the discomfort in the hearts of the bald people came from when they stared at Xia Mi, but he stopped the gaze of several people according to his heart.
Apparently he managed to attract the attention of the bald four. Unlike the greed they were when they looked at Xia Mi, they were obviously much more fierce when they looked at him. His gaze can't hurt people, it doesn't hurt to fall on Shang Fu, his eyes didn't move, and he naturally held Xia Mi's hand hanging by his side: "My name is Shang Fu, this is my girlfriend, we want to go up the mountain, I don't know if a few big brothers can take them down?" ”
Xia Mi's hand stiffened, but he didn't pull it back. The merchant's mood suddenly became a little happier.
On the contrary, the bald people were not in such a good mood, and they were not even polite with what they said: "I just said, the mountain is very dangerous, and if you want us to protect the mountain, you have to show some sincerity!" ”
"I wonder what the big ones want?"
The bald head didn't speak again, but looked at the boss behind him. Under everyone's eyes, the black-clothed boss lit a cigarette and put it to his mouth, and then he said in a salty and non-salty manner: "We went down the mountain to find food and water, and if you can provide it, it will be fine." ”
With that, his gaze quickly swept over the off-road vehicle behind Xia Mi. Finally, he looked at the clothes they were wearing.
"No problem."
Listening to Xia Mi's answer, the man in black grinned slightly and showed a ruffian: "Cheng!" My name is Liu Song, and I am the leader of the fox mercenary group, you will follow me in a while. ”
