Millstone pit, bullshit name, bullshit town.

Before the rise of the mining city in Panshan, the grinding stone pit could be described as a barren, similar to the surrounding wilderness, and even a figure could not be seen for many years.

Later, the Republic devoted itself to the development of the mining industry and relocated the working population to Panshan on a large scale, and the grinding stone pit began to have human traces.

Initially, the caravans took advantage of the unique advantages of the grinding stone pit to establish a logistics supply point.

In fact, the so-called advantage of the grinding stone pit is only relative to other places, and this place is a depression but it is a flat land.

With the circulation of goods, people who migrated to the Panshan area chose to settle in the small town of Moshikeng.

The grinding stone pit passes south through two suburban counties to reach Liugu City, one of the three cities in Panshan, and the straight-line distance is less than 15 kilometers.

In the heyday of the development of the Republic, the highway from Moshikeng to Liugu City was built on the whole line, and a mountain tunnel was waiting, and it took only half an hour to drive to the destination, and the traffic was very convenient.

However, after the outbreak of the apocalypse, the highway has been abandoned for more than 20 years, and it has long been abandoned, with landslides and destruction in many places, and almost all the mountain rock tunnels along the way have been destroyed.

In the years of the X virus outbreak, people in the city did almost everything to retreat from the big city and ask for a chance to survive. In order to stop the zombies from advancing, people just blew up the mountain, causing countless bloody tragedies.

For more than 20 years, there have been very few traces of civilization in the Panshan area, even if people now know that the straight-line distance is only fifteen kilometers, but the fifteen-kilometer distance can be described as a bloody footprint step by step, and tens of millions of zombies are in front of it!

Three months ago, the residents of the millstone pit town were still a group of zombies who ate the living, and these tragic zombies were still lost in the mountain col for more than 20 years, so they had to live in the low-lying millstone pit.

Then, the 1st Eastern Corps, which was ordered to enter the mountains, went south to carry out the battle plan and fought all the way here. After completely exterminating the entrenched zombies, the original army planned to use the millstone pit as a logistics base to support the continuation of the southward war, so a series of supplies arrived here. However, before the unit's abacus beads started, the main force of the army encountered a tide of zombies gushing out of the county between the mountains and mountains!

That encounter was a terrible fight, and the regiment-level combat unit with a full establishment of 3,000 people suffered most casualties in one day, and no matter how strong the firepower of the regular army was, it could not withstand the zombies that were pouring in.

In the end, the army could not withstand the blow, and was able to get out of the barren mountains and dense forests safely after blowing up two mountains as a block. In that battle, the unit left behind 1,800 veterans of a hundred battles.

The troops of the 1st Army Corps in the east, which had withdrawn to the grinding stone pit, suffered heavy losses, and they did not care about anything else, and returned to Dongmen City without stopping.

In this way, the grinding stone pit became a borderless land, and as soon as the military discussed it, they threw this hot potato to the year maniac. Nian Crazy is also a single, and directly sent Wang Qiang here. And the tragic Wang Qiangtong shoes brought only ...... total number of troops A platoon of thirty people.

Wang Qiang learned about the situation from Mu Erkang's mouth, and probably knew that he was pitted again, and the troops of this platoon couldn't even fight a blister on the front of the grinding stone pit.

Originally, Wang Qiang took Xiao Chong, Wang Erye and his son, Li Bai and the row of elites to come in a truck, but more than half of the journey was gone, and the truck ran out of fuel. As a last resort, Wang Qiang could only arrange for Wang Erye to take Xiao Chong to the grinding stone pit to explore the way.

Then Wang Qiang met Mu Erkang and Liang Kun, who were fighting on the ground, and then took a ride, learned about the situation by the way, and couldn't stop scolding his mother.

……

"Dude, it's time to get there, welcome to the grinding pit!" Mulkang drove the carriage to a row of wooden houses and beckoned.

Liang Kun jumped out of the carriage first, turned around and said: "This is the only hotel in the local area, which can provide accommodation, food and hot water, and there are people keeping vigil at night, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can sleep well, and you don't have to camp in the wilderness." ”

Wang Qiang put away the map, looked up and looked around, and found that the grinding stone pit was not as barren and barren as he imagined, and there were at least dozens of different wooden houses of all sizes in sight, and there were many houses under construction around it.

On the two dirt roads and streets, many armed men walked by, and Wang Qiang even saw some women, it seems that the proportion of female mercenaries and bounty hunters has increased over the years.

"It's not bad here, by the way, where is the military station?" Wang Qiang asked.

Then Liang Kun pointed to the big wooden house diagonally opposite, and said: "There, is the office where the military is stationed, since the regular army retreated, the office is currently idle, and it is handed over to a few veterans who were ordered to stay on standby. ”

Liang Kun pointed to a huge wooden building with people coming in and out in the distance, and said: "That, the largest building in the grinding stone pit, it is easy to identify, there is the mercenary management association, and all the rewards issued by the zombies are cashed out by the mercenary management association, so the hottest place in the grinding stone pit is the mercenary management association." ”

Speaking of this, Liang Kun patted the super alloy coffin behind him and said with a smile: "Soon I will also go to the Mercenary Management Association to exchange for a bounty, here, but a big guy I have worked so hard to catch, I think it will probably cause a momentary sensation." ”

After Mu Erkang moved the things in the car into the hotel, he heard Liang Kun's words as soon as he walked out, so he asked puzzledly: "What can cause a sensation?" ”

Liang Kun sneered: "It's much stronger than your carload of rotten things." ”

Wang Qiang looked at the zombie corpses piled up under his feet, all of them were some second-order mutant zombies, almost all of them were destroyed by powerful firepower. This garbage is generally rotten, and no one will want it, so I really don't understand what the use of it is.

Wang Qiang took a good look at Mu Erkang again, this alcoholic man was wearing a patched mink coat, a pair of boots were full of dust and mud, and his hands were badly worn leather gloves.

Poor freedom bounty hunter, Wang Qiang thought to himself, on the other hand, Liang Kun, the young man's iron coffin should be worth more than Mu Erkang's entire belongings.

Mu Erkang listened to Liang Kun's words, his face was very ugly, and he immediately scolded: "Okay, your kid has money and still takes Lao Tzu's car, and Lao Tzu is not polite to you, go back and make up for Lao Tzu's car money, and Lao Tzu also has shortcomings to change a few horses." ”

After speaking, Mu Erkang changed his tone and said to Xiao Chong: "Brother Xiao, I'm going to lead the horses to the horse depot to feed the horses, so you can do it yourself." ”

After speaking, Mu Erkang yelled at the hotel: "Old fellow, come out and show me the salute." ”

Then Mulkan unreined his horse and led the horse to the back of the inn.

Wang Qiang jumped out of the carriage and waited for half a minute, only to see a one-eyed old man in a shabby cotton jacket and an old looking dragon bell limping out of the hotel, looking at the carriage with blank eyes.

Xiao re-patted the snow dust on his body and said to Wang Qiang: "Brother Qiang, it's time to get to the grinding stone pit, what will you do next according to the plan?" ”

Wang Qiang touched his head and said, "I haven't thought about it yet." ”

Xiao Zhong touched his belly and said: "Brother Qiang, you have the idea of general things, but today's most important plan, I think we should fill our belly first, it's been a day's journey, Lao Xiao, I trekked through mountains and rivers and fought zombies part-time, this is almost hungry." ”

Wang Qiang touched his belly and said, "Don't say it, I'm hungry too." ”

Xiao Zhong pointed to the inn beside him and said, "That's decided, Brother Qiang, the next thing to do is to eat, except for eating, all other plans are floating clouds, let's eat." ”

Wang Qiang nodded: "Okay, listen to you." ”

The two walked into the hotel as they spoke.

Walking into the hotel, Wang Qiang found that the interior decoration of the ordinary hotel was not simple. The wooden floor was clean, and a few wooden tables were haphazardly arranged, but the walls were covered with knives, guns, axes, and sticks, as well as various types of firearms, and a living ammunition depot.

"Is this a place to eat?" Wang Qiang was a little uncertain.

At this moment, a thin old man wearing a dogskin hat came out from behind the long counter. The old man was wiping a wine glass in one hand and a square handkerchief in the other.

"Oh, there's a new guest, it's a place to eat, you heard it right, this is the place to eat, and there's a place to sleep upstairs, if you can afford it, Cuihua, look at this girl, if you can afford it, she'll accompany you tonight." As the old man greeted, a good-looking woman came out from behind the counter, with a pair of big eyes that were particularly eye-catching.

Xiao Chong couldn't see it, and his nose bleeded.

"Brother Qiang, I can't hold it anymore, I'm going to decide this girl!" Xiao Chong covered his nose and said in a sullen voice.

Wang Qiang stretched out his hand to cover his face, I really hope I don't know these two goods.

The thin old man didn't think it was a big deal, but said, "Okay, three hundred yuan a night, pay the money first." ”

"So expensive?" Wang Qiang frowned, thinking that this price was even more expensive than those in Dragon City.

The old man sneered: "Boy, I can tell you, in this grinding stone pit, Cuihua is the only one, if you don't have that money, don't be crooked." ”

As soon as the old man finished speaking, the door of the hotel opened again, and he saw a two-meter-tall man with a mountain axe swinging in.

"Old man Zhang, I want Cuihua tonight, now go and cut two catties of beef for me and make three catties of soju, Lao Tzu is starving to death." The big man threw out a few bills, and then sat down at a table, a pair of tiger eyes squinting at the emerald flowers behind the counter.

Wang Qiang noticed that when the big man said that he wanted Cuihua at night, the woman named Cuihua showed fear on her face for a moment, and it was estimated that this money would not be easy to earn.

Wang Qiang pulled Xiao Chong, who was about to step forward and fight the bull with the strong man, and signaled to him that the overall situation was important, we are not here to look for flowers and willows, but people who have tasks to work.

Xiao Zhong angrily followed Wang Qiang to a table in the corner and sat down, venting all his unhappiness on the food.

After the meal, Wang Qiang booked two rooms at Old Man Zhang's place for a night's rest, and then left the hotel with Xiao Chong.

On his first day in the grinding stone pit, Wang Qiang felt the need to familiarize himself with his surroundings.
