Section 343 Loyalty and Suspicion
Secluded places are not hard to find. Liu Tianming took Tian Guangyao to the hillside on the side of the convoy, picked up a piece of clean grass and sat down.
Tian Guangyao got straight to the point: "Do you remember Dr. Si?" ”
"Dr. Si? Is that the guy called Sibo? ”
Liu Tianming thought for a moment and nodded: "Of course I remember." ”
Tian Guangyao's eyes became deep, and he took out a red hose containing a light red liquid from his jacket pocket and placed it in front of Liu Tianming: "This is the immune medicine developed by Dr. Si. I've used it with other survivors in the base and it works really well and won't get infected by the virus. ”
Immunoassociatives?
Liu Tianming was suddenly surprised, but he didn't show it on his face. He looked at the hose suspiciously, looked up, and asked tentatively, "What you said is true?" ”
Tian Guangyao nodded towards the helicopter parked in the distance: "I brought you some." The base is fully equipped, and it is easy to configure this potion. In addition to weapons and ammunition, I brought you 500 units of this potion, which should be enough. ”
Without waiting for Liu Tianming to say words of thanks, Tian Guangyao continued: "Don't be busy thanking you first, I actually regard your side as a back road." ”
Posterior?
Liu Tianming was slightly stunned, his eyes were full of doubts.
"Dr. Si noticed something. He told me that the virus of the present and the virus of the past are two completely different things. ”
Tian Guangyao looked at the crowd in the distance and lowered his voice: "The basis for his development of the immune agent is the biological sample you got last time. I'm a rough man, and it's my duty to be a soldier and fight. But Dr. Si's words did startle me. I don't know if it's true or not. According to him, the new Beijing base, which is still well-preserved and militarily powerful, is studying a different kind of virus sample. According to their approach, I am afraid that there will be no results in a lifetime. ”
Liu Tianming suddenly understood: "Wait! Are you saying that the immunization drug project that is being studied by the top government is not from the virus that is spreading outside? ”
Tian Guangyao briefly introduced the general situation of the new Beijing base and nodded: "Yes." I don't know why it turned out the way it did. If it's just to deal with mutated creatures, then an army is needed. The prerequisite for ensuring the safe fighting of soldiers is immunity to drugs. Those people in the new Beijing base have not made research progress, and they must have made a mistake in the research direction. The virus sample they got was not this. I think it might have been a mistake from the start. ”
A huge chill suddenly rose from the bottom of Liu Tianming's heart.
He hoped that he had heard it wrong, or that Tian Guangyao had said it wrong.
Two Viruses...... What does this mean?
Tian Guangyao's voice continued.
"You don't have monitoring equipment, you don't know a lot of things. In fact, the scale of the virus outbreak is not as large as expected. Although it spreads widely, it doesn't work for everyone. I've seen recent satellite surveillance footage of many people fleeing the city and forming temporary settlements in the wilderness. This is the case not only in our country, but all over the world. ”
Liu Tianming interjected casually: "How many people are still alive?" ”
Tian Guangyao hesitated: "I don't know the specific number very well, it is a conceptual map calculated by connecting ground equipment and satellite monitoring, and there is only a not-so-accurate approximate comparison." As of yesterday, the number of survivors should be 70 percent of the total population before the outbreak of the virus. ”
"So much?"
Liu Tianming exclaimed again, and then frowned, expressing doubts: "Where are they all?" No, we came all the way from Kunming and didn't see many survivors. ”
"Some of them stayed in the city, some went to the wilderness, and most of them stayed in the water source areas of various places."
Tian Guangyao recounted the data displayed by the satellite monitoring, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "This is not a good thing. From the outbreak of the virus to the present, there has been no food harvest at all. There is no electricity, there is no energy supply, and the stored food will quickly spoil and rot. It is estimated that by this time next year, many people will starve to death. They won't last long. Even for the long-term who want to farm in a safe area, it is difficult to wait until the harvest season. ”
Liu Tianming didn't ask any further.
He understands the truth.
When order and the legal framework completely collapse, it is very difficult to rebuild. More people will become violent predators, rather than continue to be producers as they once did.
"I've only recently learned about these things."
Tian Guangyao sighed: "The northwest base was attacked by giant flying insects, and we lost a lot of people. The commander, General Su Hailong, was killed in battle. Of those who survived, I was the highest-ranking one. Now, I can freely enter and exit the satellite monitoring room of the base, and I have also obtained the highest level of military secrets. ”
Liu Tianming looked at his eyes seriously: "What else do you know?" ”
"Those mutated creatures aren't what they used to be."
Speaking of this, Tian Guangyao's face turned a little blue, and his words also contained a scolding tone: "I have reviewed the enlarged satellite surveillance images. They used to have a hard time walking, but now they can run and jump...... Maybe you can sing and dance. These monsters rampant through the city, and they will even pick up things like sticks, rocks, and blocks as weapons. Can you imagine? Weapons! A bunch of monsters that can use weapons! I'm not lying, and I didn't mean to scare you. There are many similar satellite images: a large group of monsters surrounding several people, running in front and chasing in the back. Catch up and knock them over with a stick, or throw a stone to knock them down on the spot, and then the monsters start to eat. ”
Liu Tianming knew that Tian Guangyao was not empty words. In Leshan City, the team encountered a highly evolved corpse group.
He nodded slowly: "I've seen them." They're cruel, I call them corpses. ”
"That sounds like a fitting name."
Tian Guangyao wanted to smoke and took out a cigarette from his pocket, but found that he didn't have a lighter, so he had to take the cigarette case in his hand, and roared indignantly: "I don't understand, what are those people above thinking?" Are they blind? Or is it water in the brain? These are basically two viruses, and Dr. Lian Si can develop an immune agent, why has there been no result on the new Beijing base? If this continues, the mutant creatures ...... Well, you're talking about murderous corpses, and they're likely to turn into another creature. And voila! They have now learned to hit people with stones, beat people with sticks, and maybe even shoot at us with firearms in the future. ”
Liu Tianming's eyes flashed, and an extremely bad feeling arose.
Although Tian Guangyao's statement is vulgar, it is not unreasonable.
Evolution is a very wonderful concept. This means that low-level creatures are moving towards higher levels. Every evolution is an adaptation to the environment and a change in one's own weaknesses.
The hordes are evolving too fast. In just a few months, they have shed their zombie form, possessing muscles and skin similar to those of ordinary people, and their intelligence has increased exponentially. They will now use clubs and stones, and will definitely use firearms in the future.
Liu Tianming suddenly understood part of Song Jiahao's last words in the memory card he got in Leshan.
Time is running out......
Greater fear then enveloped Liu Tianming's body.
A dead man could have foreseen this...... How exactly did he do it?
Could it be that everything that happened in the basement of Kunming No. 29 Hospital was an illusion?
Song Jiahao is still alive?
But I buried him with my own hands!
Tian Guangyao didn't notice Liu Tianming's mood change, and continued to say unfinished words: "I plan to go to the new Beijing base. ”
"Nope! Don't go! ”
Suddenly, Liu Tianming stood up roughly, grabbed his shoulders with an extremely strong movement, and roared repeatedly: "You can't go, it's dangerous there." ”
Tian Guangyao was surprised: "How do you know?" ”
"I can feel the danger there!"
Liu Tianming's hands involuntarily increased his strength, which felt clearer than anything: "You can't go." Since things have come to this point, it means that there must be a conspiracy that we are not aware of. By doing so, you're throwing yourself into a trap. ”
Tian Guangyao didn't struggle, his face was a little lonely: "Actually, Dr. Si also said the same thing to me. ”
"Then you should understand that it is wrong to do so." Liu Tianming roared repeatedly.
"What if...... I mean, in case ......"
Tian Guangyao raised his head, his eyes flashing with doubts that even he was not sure about: "What if the new Beijing base is mistaken?" If it's not a conspiracy, it's just that the people above got the research direction wrong, someone has to bring the mistake up and get everything back on the right track. You know, the people up there are arrogant, they value performance. In order to make the apparent data look better, they will cover up the facts and decorate the filthy things with flowers. They...... They don't really understand anything. As long as they stay safely in the base and have enough food and water, they don't care about the lives of others. ”
Liu Tianming didn't know how to persuade Tian Guangyao.
He is right, and there is a basis for it.
Something similar has happened more than once in history.
Hundreds of thousands of people died of starvation in a certain province during the difficult years, but the secretary of the provincial party committee reported that the grain output had doubled in that year. When the truth is revealed, this person will be held accountable. More than 10 years later, the descendants of this person brazenly jumped out and said that it was a "historical mistake" and demanded that the family be regained all the treatment of high-ranking provincial officials.
"Don't go!"
Liu Tianming pressed Tian Guangyao's shoulder hard and patiently persuaded: "You can remind them in other ways." Radio and ad hoc communications are possible, and there is no need to risk yourself. "To find this site, please search for "6 Mao" or enter the URL:.
