Chapter 0156: Stepping on the Native Land
"A ceasefire agreement? That's just a piece of paper, and it's not really useful. Xia Chenghao laughed softly, because there was no such thing as a ceasefire in his world.
I don't know where I've seen a saying that friends are used to sell, and agreements are used to destroy, because profit is the root of everything. Therefore, he did not believe in the agreement signed between the government of Zion and the local area at all, and it was just for a moment of calm and to appease the people's minds.
"Yes! Even with the agreement, there is a regular exchange of fire between the two sides, and five months ago, the Zion Congress began to call some of the resistance groups in our region separatists, and it seems that full-scale war is not far away. "There is a gloomy look on the face of the native.
Xia Chenghao lowered his head to look at the dark green water, where there were still a few small fish swimming around the side of the boat.
The native sighed and said: "When we wanted to establish a country, the local trade of various agricultural products was very developed, and it can be said that the inhabitants here were relatively rich, but now, ......, hundreds of years later, it has become the poorest place in Zion!" I don't know when I'll be able to get back to where I was. ”
Xia Chenghao shook his head: "You can never go back, the outside world has changed too much, you have been a few centuries behind, how can you return to the scenery of that time?" ”
"What?" The native suddenly raised his head and asked suspiciously.
Xia Chenghao glanced at him and said slowly: "Compared with the government of Zion, the difference in strength between you is too great. Coupled with the manipulation of others, the flames of war will never be extinguished. Your weapons and equipment must be very backward, even if you take advantage of the geographical advantage, but the advantages will always be lost between you and me. The main point is that under the war is a competition of interests, and the battlefield is a huge vanity fair, since those who have the ability to fight do not want to lay down their arms, what can those little people who are not willing to fight do to make them stop fighting? ”
After saying this, the native nodded his head, and he naturally understood this. It's just that now the war in his hometown is unpredictable, and he can't help but feel very annoyed, and slammed his fist on the cabin behind him, and a deep fist mark suddenly appeared. But he suddenly realized whether he was too presumptuous on the guest's ship, and he was just a native, a small character who lived by tax evasion.
Xia Chenghao glanced at him, and said indifferently: "The hatred brought about by a war may not be forgotten by generations, and the opponent cannot be killed, so no one can do anything......
The admiration of the natives arose, and the story here was not expected to be so well known to an outsider.
A conversation is nothing more than a boredom in the middle of the journey, and it will not have any impact on the place, nor will it have a greater impact on this trip.
The people who wanted to escape here had already left the shuttle, and the few remaining ones seemed to see that this was not a place to stay for a long time, and they still chose to return to their original destination with Xia Chenghao and the others.
At noon the next day, Wang Zhongwu had repaired the engine to work, but there was not enough power to take it into the air. It seems that the only purpose of this amphibious shuttle is to use it as a boat in the sea, and it cannot fly into the blue sky.
The boat was ready to set sail with a small amount of dry food and water.
"When will it arrive?" Xia Chenghao asked lightly.
"It's seven o'clock tonight!" Wang Zhongwu replied while busy, "The current situation is very tense, and the sea area is controlled, or it can be less than two hours." ”
"Just follow this path." Xia Chenghao said lightly.
"Yes!" Wang Zhongwu glanced up at Xia Chenghao, and then went to the bow of the ship to lift anchor.
As for Xia Chenghao, he began to quietly look at the blue sea and blue sky again, the sea breeze was blowing, and the long clothes were crackling in the wind.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the ship docked at a pier in Kundu.
This seems to be the place where he flew to the scorching Mars back then, Xia Chenghao watched quietly.
There was an old man standing there, and a brand-new X7 aerodynamic car was parked in the distance. A tall man stood in the dark, he was a purebred white man, with brown hair, gray eyes, and a straight suit with a respectful demeanor.
"You're four hours late!" The old man said.
A trace of curiosity flashed in Xia Chenghao's eyes, but he quickly calmed down and carefully looked at the person who appeared in front of him without making an appointment in advance.
The other party was wearing a pair of homespun gray pants and a blue shirt that had been seriously faded, a wide-brimmed straw hat on his thin head, gray hair exposed under the brim, deep sunken cheeks, bulging cheekbones, hunched waist, **** no shoes on his brown feet, skin like Xingnian parchment, and a weather-beaten appearance.
"The sea loves us so much!" Xia Chenghao joked with him.
The old man smiled, but only his eyes, not his mouth, his eyes were like cloudy and yellow, still bright and sharp, and his mouth was tightly closed.
"Next!" Xia Chenghao shouted, throwing the tail end of a long cable over his head, the old man caught it deftly, pulled it firmly, and pulled it close to the end of the cable with great difficulty, while keeping the boat steady, to pull the boat closer to the dock, the hands that pulled the rope were rough and violent, and the flat nails had long been replaced by thick calluses.
These were originally Wang Zhongwu's jobs, but they were replaced by others at this time.
It was as if everything here was expected by Xia Chenghao, a familiar experience.
The yacht swayed in the gentle waves, slid towards the dock and gently leaned in.
Xia Chenghao stepped down, and the old man looked at the distance from the bow to the dock with some surprise. Wang Zhongwu blinked and made a strange expression, and the old man lowered his head and wrapped the rope around the stake.
It seems that this Wang Zhongwu and the old man also know each other.
Xia Chenghao miscalculated one thing, that is, Wang Zhongwu was actually a person hired by the Red Moon Organization, otherwise, from receiving Xia Chenghao to sending this young man to the shore, everything would be so logical.
Wang Zhongwu began to drop anchor, and his mission was over when the ship arrived, and the next thing was another person's business. He can be regarded as completely handing over the important person to the next person, so he can go back and collect the money.
Seeing the young man's back go away, he also got off the boat.
The strong man on the side of the X7 air kinetic energy car hurriedly took a few steps to greet him and said, "I'm Luo Geng, I'm here to pick you up!" ”
Xia Chenghao glanced at him lightly, glanced at the sea when he came, took a long breath and exhaled softly.
The scenery has changed a lot.
He bowed slightly to Wang Zhongwu, signaling goodbye, and nodded to the old man to thank him.
Then he turned to Luo Geng and said, "Let's go!" ”
Sitting in the car, Xia Chenghao gently leaned on the back seat and closed his eyes, the two and a half days of rage made him a little tired. Stepping on this land again, he was filled with emotion.
