Chapter 10 (I) The Walking Dead Camp
Running, running continuously, at least after ten minutes of non-stop running, Ah Yue, who was in the lead, stopped, slipped and fell under a rock in front of him.
Everyone hid below panting and resting, Tang Shuxing was already dizzy, he hadn't eaten for too long, if it wasn't for the emergency of the situation before, maybe he couldn't help but gnaw on those rotten corpses below, and now he recalled the scene in his mind, not disgust and fear, but regret.
Ji Kefeng was lying outside and perceiving around, came back after a long time, shook his head and said: "Don't worry, there are no pursuers, I don't perceive anything, and there are no living creatures around." ”
"That's pretty safe." Ah Yue said breathlessly.
"Wait-" Tang Shuxing looked at Ji Kefeng, "There are no living creatures!?" ”
"yes, there are no living creatures." After Ji Kefeng finished speaking, his scalp suddenly exploded, and he realized that this was unlikely, because on the desert, even if you can't see it with the naked eye, there are small animals and other things around, and they are also living creatures, why are there no half living creatures?
At this time, Gu Huaiyi grabbed Ji Kefeng and sniffed him closely.
Ji Kefeng was startled at first, thinking that Gu Huaiyi was going to attack him, but when he found that Gu Huaiyi was just getting closer, he put down the gun in his hand and said impatiently: "Are you crazy again?" ”
"When you were dodging the fighter just now, did you feel wet under your feet when you ran to the position you past?" Gu Huaiyi looked at Ji Kefeng.
Ji Kefeng only paid attention to touching his clothes at this time, and sure enough, many places were wet, the situation was urgent before, and he couldn't take care of it so much, but now in retrospect, he was indeed lying in a position where water was everywhere.
Tang Shuxing also leaned over and touched it, and then said, "It's the kind of liquid that was sprinkled by the plane before!" ”
Ji Kefeng didn't know why, he was a little flustered at this time, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of liquid is that!?" ”
"I don't know." Gu Huaiyi let go of Ji Kefeng, "But now it's certain that is." Your perception is lost, maybe only temporarily, for sure. ”
"What?" Ji Kefeng was really flustered this time, because strong perception ability is his most advantageous weapon now, without this thing, he is not an implanter bullshit!
At this moment, a gerbil poked its head out of the gap on the side of the rock, stared at Tang Shuxing, and immediately retracted its head after a second and a half. Ji Kefeng was completely dumbfounded this time, and there was really a problem with his perception ability. Right next to their feet there was even a nest of gerbils. He didn't even notice it!
Gu Huaiyi mockingly patted Ji Kefeng on the shoulder. Then leaned to the side and looked at him with a smile on his face.
Tang Shuxing gave Gu Huaiyi a look, signaling him not to stare at Ji Kefeng with that expression, and the consequence was only to deepen the contradiction between them.
Ah Yue looked at Ji Kefeng. He didn't say anything, but immediately diverted the matter at hand, looked around, and said: "We must leave immediately when the night is still cool and the weather is still cool, at least to a place close enough to the border, otherwise as soon as the sun rises at dawn, we will die with this little drinking water." ”
"Even the walking corpse will die." Gu Huaiyi said on the side, and then went out and looked around. Wave for the others to come out.
When Ji Kefeng came out, he felt like he was a master with a sword, and once he left the sword, he couldn't pinch half a bucket of water to kill a chicken with his fists and feet, but he still tried to maintain his previous careless appearance, trying not to make himself look like the kind of person who lost his perception and became a waste.
"This liquid should be time-sensitive. But I also believe that it is not aimed at you, maybe it has other effects, it is just a mistake. Tang Shuxing was not a comfort to Ji Kefeng, he actually judged it in his heart, it was just a coincidence.
However, he hoped that this coincidence would be a lesson for Ji Kefeng.
"There are wheel prints." Gu Huaiyi squatted down and touched the wheel marks on the ground, "It's hard to the touch, could it be that when it rains, there are cars passing by, and the sun rises and dries after the rain stops?" ”
Ah Yue shook his head to say that he didn't know, and Tang Shuxing continued to walk forward along the wheel mark, and as he walked, he found that the mark disappeared, and he turned around and walked again, and found that there was only one wheel mark, and there were many people's footprints on the left side of the wheel mark, which looked messy.
"It could be a truck with water." Tang Shuxing touched the mark and said, "It's unlikely that it will rain in the desert, right?" Tang Shuxing said and looked at Ah Yue, and after getting Ah Yue's affirmation, he analyzed, "I think it should be that in the process of transporting water by the truck, the bucket or water tank leaked, and the water gushed out, and the car stopped immediately, and the people in the car jumped down and squeezed together to find a way to block it. ”
"Well analyzed." Ah Yue approvingly, "This possibility is very high, if you carry water in the desert, it means that there must be a stronghold or camp or something like that around, and maybe there is an underground cave or a camp or something like that, there may be an answer there." ”
Similar to Ah Yue's judgment, after they walked forward for about forty minutes, they really found a depression in the desert, and there were really some caves on the left side of the depression, all of which were dug out artificially, and the surrounding area was also covered with desert-colored canvas, which was difficult to find from the air during the day.
This is the territory of Mexico, Mexico almost does not use helicopters to patrol, the American side helicopters are not an emergency and cannot cross the border, and the patrol vehicles of the Mexican Immigration Administration cannot travel so far, so it is safest to establish a stronghold here.
"The watermill is over there." Gu Huaiyi rolled sideways to the side and pointed to the right position under the depression, where a truck holding a water tank was parked, which should be the car that had left the wheel mark earlier. There are also a number of low hills on the left, although at first glance they seem to be formed naturally, but because the arrangement is so regular, you can still tell that they were deliberately piled up with mud.
"Why no one? Master Ji, can you help ......" Tang Shuxing was just about to let Ji Kefeng perceive, but suddenly remembered that Ji Kefeng had lost his ability to perceive, so he had to quickly turn the conversation around, "You help cover me, I'll go into the camp to take a look." ”
"No, I'll do it." After crawling forward for a few meters, Ah Yue pulled out his silencer pistol, aimed at the car's water tank and fired two shots in succession, and two holes appeared immediately after the water tank was shot. The water immediately flowed out of the hole and dripped on the ground with a "tick-tock" sound.
Because it was a depression and it was a quiet night, the dripping sound sounded several times louder than usual.
Ah Yue rolled back, lying on one side and looking carefully at the entrance of the cave, and it didn't take long for him to finally hear movement, but it was the sound of chains mopping the floor.
The sound came from the cavern, immediately muffling the dripping sound, and two figures appeared. From the perspective of Tang Shuxing. Both are very tall. It seems to be still straddling the belt of arms. However, they wore leg cuffs and handcuffs, which were connected together with large thick iron chains and tied into a "gong" shape, and both of them carried iron pickaxes in their hands.
Tang Shuxing and Ah Yue glanced at each other. They all shook their heads and didn't understand what was going on, could this be the one who survived in Morro Town? Arrested by drug dealers and used as a coolie? But why dig caves?
The two walked towards the leaky car with heavy steps, and then looked up at the location of the dripping water tank, but they stayed there and watched, and did not talk, looking very strange, and one of them even made a gesture to smash the water tank with an iron pickaxe.
"Damn it, are they mentally retarded?" Tang Shuxing took the binoculars and looked at them carefully. But because it was too dark, I could only vaguely distinguish the height and general outline of the person, and the details could not be seen at all.
"No-" Gu Huaiyi suddenly said at this time, "That's a walking corpse, the most ordinary walking corpse." It's not a daywalk or something else, it has a low IQ, but it can work without eating or resting. ”
As soon as Gu Huaiyi said this, he could immediately explain why those two people behaved like this, if there were walking corpses, there should be people around, right? Otherwise who controls the walking dead digging caves?
"The water is not for drinking, it should be used to wet the soil, so it's easier to dig." Ah Yue looked down and said, "Look at the mound next to it, the cave should be dug very deep, but what is it used for?" ”
Tang Shuxing said to himself: "The drug dealers captured the able-bodied residents of Moluo Town, killed one batch and threw them in the cracks of the ground, and the other batch was arrested...... No, no, Ah Yue, you see that those two walking corpses still have armed belts, which shows that the people who dig the caves here are not the walking corpses turned into by the residents of Moluo Town, but the armed drug dealers! ”
Gu Huaiyi nodded slightly: "It makes sense, after they arrested the residents of Moluo Town, they were calculated again, and they all turned into walking corpses and dug holes here?" Ah Yue, do you know how far away this location is from the United States now? ”
"I know what you mean." Ah Yue shook his head and said, "You mean digging an underground tunnel into the United States?" This kind of thing has been done by drug dealers before, but the distance is not long, and even if it is close, it will be several kilometers, right? Under this desert, if there is nothing to support, and if you are not careful, the vibration caused by the sound of gunfire echoing in the cave alone is enough to make this cavern full of dirt collapse. ”
"Maybe it's for the Tibetans?" Ji Kefeng interjected beside him, his tone became much gentler, and he was no longer so arrogant, which was what Tang Shuxing wanted to see the most.
"Tibetans?" Gu Huaiyi was shocked, looked at Ji Kefeng, but didn't say a word, and after ten seconds, under the gaze of Tang Shuxing and Ah Yue, he suddenly said, "Oh no! I guessed what they were going to do, and I understood what the purpose of the flight was, it was really a departure from the mountains! ”
Tang Shuxing immediately turned sideways and asked, "The role of diverting the tiger from the mountain?" ”
"Attract the elite troops on the border between Mexico and the United States, that's why the flight doesn't land in Mexico City or other large airports, but chooses Monterrey, because Monterrey Airport is ......the closest to the border with the United States," Gu Huaiyi turned his head to look in the direction they came, "We have to leave immediately, no matter what, we have to warn the American side after crossing the border." ”
"You're crazy!?" Ah Yue exclaimed, "What are you warning the U.S. government for?" ”
"Warn them that the walking corpse will cross directly from the Mexican border to the United States!" After Gu Huaiyi finished speaking, he got up and ran forward.
