Chapter 3 Murder and Treasure Hunting
"Which beast hit it!"
The motorcycle stopped in a circle around Xuanzang, and a tall man took off his gas mask and scolded loudly. Others subconsciously put their guns behind their backs, and no one would admit it.
"Is it possible that you can't catch up with someone who runs on your feet? Look around here, where can he go? Mentally retarded! After the man finished speaking, he sent one of his men to check.
Xuanzang was turned over, he tried to look down at his right calf, the wound was not large, it was not penetrated, and the blood mixed with the yellow sand gurgled out. It seems that the warhead is still in the body, and now it is in trouble.
The person who checked the injury also noticed this, and went back to discuss a few words with Dahan in a low voice, and Dahan nodded in annoyance. The man took out several bottles, a knife and a lighter, and a roll of fairly clean bandages from a wooden box wrapped in rags.
When he stopped Xuanzang's bleeding, Dahan asked the others to withdraw all the magazines of the automatic rifles, count the bullets one by one, and then stop in front of a short man wearing a windproof mask.
Syllable! Syllable!
The big man grabbed him and slapped him twice, the mask was directly knocked off, and blood flowed down the man's dry lips.
"Guns, water, and food are left, get out of here!"
"Brother Hong, you actually ...... for a slave"
Several gunshots exploded in the dwarf's ears, and the bursting shells sliced through his face, startling him for a moment. Liu Hong put the muzzle of the gun pointing at the sky to his chest, and shouted angrily: "I have the final say here!" ”
The dwarf had no choice but to unload his equipment, withdraw from the crowd tremblingly, and walk off into the distance.
Xuanzang's wound had been simply cleaned and disinfected, the bleeding had basically stopped, and he was roughly pulled by Liu Hong's men and stood up in pain. Liu Hong came over and pinched his face, looked left and right, and said, "I look like a girl, I can live until now, my life is very hard." Well, it can be sold for a good price. ”
"It's a pity that I can't take out the bullet, so I won't live long." Xuanzang gritted his teeth and squeezed out a painful sneer, "This affects the selling price very much, you were so angry just now." ”
"Yo, I'm quite knowledgeable. Even the ones who were sold have brains, but my gang of men are idiots. Liu Hong spat on the ground.
One of his subordinates refused and said, "Why don't you just take a slave, and what if you are injured?" It's a big deal to keep it for yourself and eat it, it's worth as much as selling it. Some people agreed in a low voice, they were all the first time to see Liu Hong angry about this kind of thing, and they were very angry.
Liu Hong snorted coldly and said, "Idiot! What do you know? This guy can change at least five barrels of oil, and if you talk well, two more boxes of bullets won't be a problem! Mutations, you know? Do you know radiation resistance? ”
Xuanzang said secretly: No, how could he know this? Didn't these slave traders just come to arrest me because I was alone? Don't......
"Can't figure it out, boy?" Liu Hong looked at him with a puzzled expression and said with a smile, "Tell you, you were sold by your own family, and the old man in your cave can't keep you!" ”
Xuanzang immediately understood.
Sure enough, the thing he feared as he was leaving happened.
The management, represented by Fa Ming and the older generation of residents, ruled too benevolently, and Jin Shan rarely abandoned the old, weak, sick and disabled, and always tried to save every resident. But Jinshan is too small, and the more people who survive, the more difficult it will be for everyone.
The long-term harsh environment has made them suppress too much dissatisfaction, and now they have all taken the opportunity to explode. Faming is already very old, and his control is getting weaker and weaker. His previous cover-ups, his lenient punishment for failing to fetch water, and the extra luggage he couldn't help but give when he was in exile gave his opponents a reason to fan the flames.
For the people living in the enclosed space, so many factors are enough to set them on fire, there must have been a riot in Jinshan.
"Tie him back!" Liu Hong turned around and beckoned.
Xuanzang was tied to the locomotive in reverse, looked at the dust raised by the rear wheels, sighed, and got farther and farther away from the direction he was going.
After only a few days of absence, he returned to the Golden Mountain Mine again. A bald man with a cross-shaped scar on his face, sitting on the broken sofa covered with metal, smiled cruelly at Xuanzang: "I didn't expect it to be me, Xuanzang." ”
However, to Xuanzang, he is just an inconspicuous passerby. "Who are you...... Oh, it seems to be Genji? Finally searched for his name in his memory, Xuanzang said, "You took over Jinshan?" I see, you made a deal with these biker parties. ”
"You're very smart. Yes, I exchanged half of the food and half of the gold mountain for the victory of this battle. However, the old men have the armed forces of Jinshan in their hands, and it is more difficult to fight than they imagined. They raised the price, so I offered you. ”
He looked at Xuanzang and said, "Fa Ming has always protected you, and many people are puzzled. For this reason, I have watched you for a long time, and you eat and live the same as us, but you never have a fever, cough up blood, and do not have tumors. Although I don't know why, you seem to be very useful to Brother Hong. Thank you very much for the success of the transaction. ”
Xuanzang looked at the wreckage and blood stains scattered around him, and said, "Why is the cave so empty?" ”
"If we don't drive those who are dragging our feet away, how will we survive?" Xuanzhi proudly opened his arms and showed him the new golden mountain, "Look at now, there is enough food and drink, and Brother Hong's powerful firepower, isn't it better than when the old man was there?" ”
Liu Hong sneered and said, "Make it clear, kid." We're just staying for the time being, but don't get dizzy, and really think of my Tigers as your escort. ”
"That's, that's."
Subsequently, Xuanzang was imprisoned in a small room. "Hey." He stopped Liu Hong, who was about to go out, "Can you ask, where are you going to sell me?" ”
"What's the hurry, I'll be on my way tomorrow."
"I'm afraid it's too far away, and I can't hold this leg. If the wound is not treated thoroughly, the warhead will cause infection. ”
"Aren't you invincible?" Liu Hong sneered, "It's really not good, cut off that leg." ”
Xuanzang was speechless, the difficulty of amputation and taking the bullet is comparable, are you sure you can do it?
Liu Hong refused to tell him the destination, and accosted the guard's men, who did not know, saying that it was a buyer he had never seen before, which was different from the steel factory that used to accept slaves.
A buyer who knows about genetic variations? If you will spend a lot of money to buy him, you should have the corresponding technical strength to conduct research, otherwise it will not be reasonable. There are not many people who still have this kind of technology in the wasteland, and it is likely that it is a subordinate institution of the Heavenly Court, and those immortals will indeed violate the rules of heaven for the sake of research and interact with the human world privately.
If he is sold to them, he will inevitably die, and the soul box will be lost, and there will be no way back this time.
But how do you get out now? Dragging this injured leg, even if you are lucky enough to get out of the mine, you will soon be caught up by motorcycles.
Stealing a car? The steering wheel was heavily guarded, and before he could enter the room, he would be shot to death.
"Hiss......" There was a piercing pain in the calf, and the wound worsened again. Although he is not afraid of radiation, it is really uncertain whether he will be infected. The wound is stopped by the most primitive means, and if it is tightened for too long, the leg will be scrapped. It's starting to swell now.
What to do?
Xuanzang closed his dry eyes and leaned against the wall in deep thought.
Now he is just a mortal with the naked eye, and he no longer has divine power...... Phew, what kind of divine power, gods and Buddhas are only better equipped human beings......
Since we are human, we should give full play to the advantages of human beings...... Tool...... With all the tools at your disposal......
There's a way!
He opened his eyes and smiled.
As the night passed, the LTTE dragged him out of the room. They shouted as they prepared their vehicles, holding their steering wheels high and praying to the chanting machines.
At this time, Xuanzang spoke: "Can you give me my rosary, I also want to make a prayer." ”
Liu Hong didn't suspect it, but just led everyone to laugh at him and threw the rosary over. Xuanzang recalled the usage of this thing, and quickly thought about the information to be sent in his mind, converting them into code.
He silently dialed the rosary in a special way, and no one knew that the sensor inside the rosary was broadcasting a message to the wireless network according to his dial. The first message was sent quickly, and if nothing else, in another half an hour, what he hoped would happen.
But just as he was about to send a second, more crucial message, he paused.
Oops, I forgot how to dial this part!
"Don't bother, get in the car!" They tugged at his hands, but he insisted on holding the rosary while he was tied.
Genji looked at him from a short distance and sneered: "You idiot, just like those old men before they died, it's really pitiful. But no matter how much you pray, Heaven will not bless you. You have long since been abandoned by my Buddha! ”
Xuanzang replied calmly: "No, it was I who spurned the Buddhas. ”
The convoy set off and quickly disappeared into the dust.
Xuanzhi gestured his middle finger in the direction he left, cursed Xuanzang a few words, and returned to the mine.
He admired the dry food and fresh water in the warehouse, the fuel tanks for weapons, and sat down on the sofa with satisfaction. The Tigers even gave them a battery, and the light reflected on his bald head, and for the first time there was light in the hole. Everything is so much better than before.
Suddenly there was a commotion at the gate, and he ordered his subordinates: "Go and see what is going on." ”
"Boss, there are two immortals outside!" The subordinates quickly returned, with a fanatical expression.
Xuanzhi went out of the gate with everyone, and sure enough, he saw two immortals in gorgeous white robes, soaring through the clouds and mist, condescendingly observing Jinshan. Their clothes were fluttering, their sword eyebrows were starry, and their white faces even shone with dazzling rainbow light.
"Gods bless! Gods bless! The crowd fell down and chanted.
"Who called me here?" The two immortals said at the same time.
Xuanzhi rolled his eyes and hurriedly stepped forward. "It's me, it's me. What advice does Daisen have? He felt that it must be good luck from heaven and that he was going to be blessed. Although I didn't seem to have done anything special just now, it must have been the reward of my daily chanting. So he immediately took the opportunity to talk, and when he came back, he wanted to tell everyone that this was his credit.
"Start testing." One of the immortals whispered. A golden light shot out of his eyes, swept down from the top of the golden mountain, repeated several times in the cave area, and then retracted.
Genji and the others were stunned, not knowing what was going on.
"The gold content reaches the collection standard." The immortal said.
"Why, why hasn't this area been developed before?" Another immortal said, his tone unfluctuating and his rhythm strange.
"Log retrieval is complete, and it is an acceptable omission. and did not receive a voluntary report. ”
The two of them were silent at the same time, and then their eyes flashed, and they said in unison: "You and other mortals, listen, the golden stone here is a thing of my heavenly court, and it should be retrieved now." Within ten times of the bell, stay away immediately, otherwise you will bear the consequences. ”
"What are the great immortals talking about? Completely incomprehensible. ”
"Looks like you're going to take something and let us go?"
"What? Want us to leave Jinshan? ”
Boom!
When everyone was talking, they suddenly heard the sound of the empty bell, as if ringing from the bottom of everyone's heart, giving them an unprecedented shock.
Boom!
"Said you were going to leave before ten rings?"
"Why?"
"Leave it alone, let's go first."
Everyone walked down the dunes in disbelief. Before Xuanzhi left, after thinking about it, he called a few more people back, brought a few guns, and carried one of the heaviest weapons in the mine. It was Liu Hong's most precious bazooka, and he warned Xuanzhi that if he dared to touch it, he would kill him.
Xuanzhi also hoped that he would not use it, but the bell gave him a bad feeling, although it came from the two immortals, it was ominous.
After the ten bells rang, the two immortals stretched out their hands at the same time, and a fiery pillar of light suddenly shot out from their palms. Everyone suddenly felt a sharp pain in their eyes, turned their heads to dodge, and a few of them turned slowly and went blind on the spot!
Genji squinted his eyes and tried to look, and what greeted him was an unbelievable sight.
The entire sand dune unexpectedly twisted, and then shattered in an instant, and countless free golden lights converged in one place, and finally turned into a huge golden square!
"Huh? What's going on, what's that glowing thing in the sky? ”
"Leave that alone, what about our home?"
When the pillar of light was retracted, they found that there was only a big pit left in the original place where the Jinshan Mine was located!
"Daisen! Daisen! Where did our gold mountain go? ”
The two immortals ignored their cries and silently checked the fineness of the nuggets.
"Our home...... That's it...... It's gone? ”
Xuanzhi came back from his shock, looked at the two immortals angrily, and shouted: "Immortals, return me Jinshan!" ”
"The golden stone here is a thing of my heavenly court, and it should be retrieved now." One of the immortals repeated, his tone and rhythm indistinguishable from before.
"Take your paralysis!"
The gunfire was loud, but the bullets did not touch the immortals at all, and were shot away by the translucent cover in front of them.
Xuanji's eyes were cracked, he lifted the bazooka and pressed the trigger hard.
The immortal slapped back, and the rocket crashed straight into it, the shell quickly twisting, flattening, and then exploding.
Rumble!
The smoke cleared, and the immortals were unharmed.
"Dangerous creatures to be removed have been detected."
A thin blue light swept across the ground, and Genji stared blankly at the immortal in the air, feeling his vision more and more crooked, and then losing consciousness. His body, like everyone else, was neatly cut in half.
"Cleared."
