Chapter XXIX
They did not stay long in the dilapidated houses, and on the second day, having eaten the jerky they had brought with them, they left, leaving behind only a few piles of embers that proved that they had stayed there.
The snow stopped last night, and there was a light rain, and the cold air froze the rain into solid ice of various shapes, making the ground very slippery and you could fall if you weren't careful.
"Maybe we can say goodbye, if we need it in the future, you are welcome to come to our theater base, mention my name, maybe it will reduce some trouble."
Zhang Ling exhaled a mouthful of white mist, looked at the angular face, and suddenly felt a little inexplicable emotion, maybe he felt that without him, there would be no sense of security? There are deadly crises along the way, and with this rudimentary weapon and manpower, it will be extremely difficult.
"Hmm."
Zhou He nodded: "If there is a chance, I will." ”
"That ······"
Zhang Ling hesitated: "Can we keep these weapons temporarily?" ”
She looked at the dozens of people behind her, most of them were unarmed, and if they didn't have weapons around them, they were afraid that they wouldn't be able to go far, and they would be swallowed up by accidents that might occur at any time.
Zhou He turned his head and glanced at Ah Yi, his eyes were a little dazed, and he didn't seem to notice that he came back to his senses after repeating Zhang Ling's words in the reminder of the eleventh, and shook his head for a long time.
Is it a rejection?
Zhang Ling thought in frustration, a little unacceptable, in this case, how can they protect those who are defenseless without weapons?
"I ······"
His emaciated cheeks twitched, and he seemed to have made up his mind, very hard, his face flushed, and the blue tendons on his forehead were jumping, "I······ I don't want to look for it. ”
Ah Yi's voice was trembling and hoarse: "Teacher Zhou······ You've long understood that you can't find it at all, right? ”
He covered his face with his hands, his shoulders twitching: "Too many people have died······ I don't want to let them die, there is no point at all, and if the sixth mother-in-law is here, she will also agree. ”
He sobbed silently, his spirit had been crushed early, but he was holding back, and at this moment, the pent-up emotions in his heart were finally vented.
"Aren't you looking for it?"
Zhou He muttered, and the picture of Da Fifteen's death resurfaced in his mind, causing his heart, which he thought had enough capacity to bear, to thrash again, as if to remind him.
"Do you want to make a deal?"
The harsh sound like metal friction suddenly remembered that it was definitely not the voice of anyone present, it was an unfamiliar voice, and Zhou He felt very familiar.
"Alert!"
Zhang Ling gave the command at the first time, and together with her comrades, she turned the muzzle of the gun in the direction of the source of the sound.
"It's it!"
Zhou He's pupils shrank slightly, it was the lizard man.
How did it come after it?
"Bang! Boom! ”
The corpses of two mutant hare with their necks broken were thrown in front of Zhou He.
"This is my sincerity."
As it spoke, its brown erect pupils staring at Zhou He.
"What deal?"
Zhou He made a defensive gesture, staring at its figure as if it had melted into the snow.
"I heard you're looking for someone?"
Its indifferent pupils swept over the people behind him, "It just so happens that I might be able to help you." ”
"You may not believe it... It's not far from one of their underground bases, about fifty kilometers from here, three hundred meters underground, is one of their base transit stations, where most of their logistics convoys will be resupplied and then lead to the new city from the underground tunnels, and we know an entrance that is not an entrance. ”
"We?"
Zhou He frowned.
"I'm not alone."
It nodded: "Of course, it is not an appropriate word to describe myself as a person. ”
"Wait······ I may need to brush it up. ”
Zhou He interrupted it: "You heard from our conversation that we were looking for someone, so you found me and made a deal with me?" Then tell me how to find them? ”
"You said it's about fifty kilometers from here, and three hundred meters underground is a transit station for their base? Where will their logistic vehicles be resupplyed, and then depart from the underground transfer station and drive to the new city? You help me find their base staging stations, find them, and that's our deal? So what are your conditions? ”
Zhou He finally stopped putting it in the position of monster aliens, they are a new group of high-IQ creatures, with extremely high IQ and calculation, and they also know how to trade and scheming······ How can they no longer be ignored.
It's simply that.
He couldn't describe the shock in his heart, and looked at Zhang Ling, and found that they were not surprised, but their expressions were full of vigilance, as if they had already known that such a creature existed.
She noticed Zhou He's gaze and looked at him, "What do you seem to want to ask?" ”
"You already knew they existed?"
Zhou He couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Ling nodded and whispered, "We call them Inhumans, but we rarely come into direct contact with them, and they were present in this war against the new base of the subspecies······ The rest, we don't know much about, they have all kinds of special abilities, they are a very threatening group of high IQs, and they are very well hidden, we don't have details about them. ”
"What is your purpose?"
Zhou He stared at it and took a deep breath.
"Like you, it's also to save our companions."
It said calmly.
"Then you can do it yourself."
Zhou He questioned.
There must be other purposes······
He wondered in his heart, a little hesitant whether he should make this deal with it, it seemed, it was the only hope to save them?
"Nope."
It shook its head very anthropomorphically: "It's very dangerous there, we are not like you, we have an iron suit that can't be broken by cannonballs, I see your advantage, so I plan to make a deal with you." ”
Is that all?
Zhou He didn't believe it, but there seemed to be a voice in his heart encouraging him: This is the last chance to fulfill his promise.
"I'll go!"
Ah Jiu suddenly walked out and looked at it.
"You?"
It shook its head: "It's too weak. ”
He clenched his fists, and the veins on his forehead squirmed like earthworms.
"We need to talk about it."
Zhou He patted Ah Jiu's shoulder, looked at it and said.
"Alright, I'll come back later."
It seemed calm, turned away without hesitation.
"I want to get them out······"
Zhou He informed Zhang Ling of his thoughts.
"I can understand that."
She nodded, "But they're dangerous······ Perhaps, just to trick you into doing something? ”
"It's possible."
He nodded, "So I need to be wary of them." ”
He thought, full of malicious speculation about its purpose, but there was no way to refuse the deal and achieve it.
"Make a decision?"
Zhang Ling looked at Zhou He: "What can we help you?" ”
