Chapter 153: Gaining a New Partner
After Luohan returned from Shangri-La, he briefly told Qiangba about the situation in Shangri-La, the Western Independence Association's power in Shangri-La is not so strong, and Tenzin knows that Diqing's weapons have fallen into the hands of civilians, and Diqing has become a hard bone that is not easy to gnaw, so will Shangri-La's independence harass Diqing in the short term.
Of course, the civilians of Diqing will not let go of a stable life, but with a gun in their hands, they will run to Shangri-La to provoke the remnants of the Independence Association, as long as they take precautions.
We advise the civilians of Diqing not to be as careless as they were when the Tibetan soldiers were in power, the first corpse has recovered its intelligence, and it is too dangerous for a base like theirs to not even build a walled fortification, and it is not far from Kunming, if the first corpse comes in this direction with thousands of corpses in Kunming City one day, they will be in danger.
They accepted our suggestion and began to prepare for the construction of fortifications in the direction of Kunming.
Before the Arhat begged for us a cart of fat sheep was pulled back by us, Qiangba they already knew that this group of sudden large corpses was the credit of Mu Zhi, (we did not have the ability to disclose Hong Jian), and this cart of sheep was to thank Mu Zhi for the gift, they felt that it was really not enough, the enthusiastic Tibetan brothers gave Mu Zhi ten strong yaks and ten horses, and took over the task of sending these cows, horses and sheep back to the Swallow Cave, he said that we do not understand the temperament of yaks and horses, and transporting them is very different from transporting sheep. And Mu Zhi was worried about his clansmen, and when he saw that the rebellion in Diqing had been settled, he also proposed to go back immediately.
In this way, Luohan and Thunderstorm drove Mu Zhi back to the Swallow Cave in advance, while Qiangba arranged for someone to transport the animals alone, so we didn't have to worry about this.
The Arhats and the Thunderstorm returned the next night, while the Tibetan brothers who helped transport the animals were much slower, giving them time to drink water and feed on grass on the way.
We don't plan to go to Liangguang to carry out the mission, the situation in Chengdu is not optimistic, this time with the little friends are temporary help to Lijiang Ancient Town to save people, who knows and was delayed by Diqing for a few days, now the matter has subsided, some partners have to go back to the Chengdu base, after all, our family is still there.
Adam and Hong Jian were lent out by us, and the institute said at that time that the survivors who rescued the ancient town would be returned, and it could not affect the progress of vaccine development, and General Pi also needed Hong Jian to continue to help recover the lost territory in Chengdu, compared with the convenience of our travel, the zombie vaccine and the recovery of the base were obviously much more important, so we decided to let them go back to Chengdu.
Hong Jian was so angry when he knew this decision, but there was no way, we told him the truth, in fact, of course we are willing to take him on the road, with him, there is no need to worry about encountering corpses.
This time from Chengdu with the partner who came to help with Hong Jian and Banlangen went back, considering that Chengdu is more dangerous now, Thunderstorm decided to go back with Gu Muli, he is worried about his parents, I agree, I am more relieved to have him and Canaan to protect his parents and handsome handsome.
In this way, only Luohan, Zhu Hong, Qin Xiaoman, Qi Jin, Nian Nian, Tang Xiaoyou, Amy and I were eight people, three cars.
The partner who returned to Chengdu left all the petrol and food for us and left.
Qiangba did not only thank Mu Zhi, he also prepared a rich gift, eight horses, which were given by the head, and a truckload of small sheep, and more than a dozen large boxes of vacuum-sealed air-dried beef and mutton, butter tea, dairy products, etc., which filled another small truck.
We smiled wryly and excused ourselves, there were only eight people in total, who would drive them all on horseback? There is also a car of fat sheep and a car of food, it is too much, we just go to Guangzhou, and not the whole country, originally from Chengdu back this time Anqiao prepared a car to eat, it is really not enough to eat, and the car is too much waste of gasoline.
In the end, we only accepted three horses, one is all black, one is snow white, and one is jujube red, they have names, the black horse is called Dawa, the white horse is called Meri, and the red horse is called Duta, these three horses are said to be the most aura, can understand the master's orders, and have a lot of combat experience in dealing with zombies, know how to avoid the bite of zombies, and will accurately kick the head of zombies, it is not an exaggeration to say that the three of them are corpse-killing little soldiers.
And the little fat sheep we refused, the meaning of Qiangba, eight of us, a roast of a whole sheep is just enough to eat, but we look at the docile appearance of those sheep, feel that they are a little unbearable to make them roast the whole sheep, this kind of hypocrisy is summarized in a sentence, that is, they are not hungry, hungry and anxious, they look cute and cute, we will also turn a blind eye, not to mention roasted alive, it is possible to pounce on them like zombies and gnaw them raw, but we have not yet reached that point, so in the case of sufficient food, we don't want to start roasting these sheep.
Because we have experienced the trouble of moving with living animals, we have to put them down from the cart on the way to feed them grass and drink, and take care of their daily life, compared to the three horses will be much easier, and they will be able to ride them directly to graze when they encounter a fertile grass.
Air-dried beef and mutton and butter tea we received, air-dried beef and mutton high calorie, but also anti-hunger, long shelf life, butter tea is dry powder, like coffee made into a small packet of a small packet, with boiling water can be brewed very convenient, but also easy to preserve, dairy products, we brought some cheese cake and milk cubes, nutritious, but not easy to put for a long time, is intended to be eaten as soon as possible.
Qiangba was very disappointed to see that we did not have many gifts to take, but we really felt how sincere the simple feelings of this nation were, and once again felt worthwhile to stay and help them regain a free and equal life! It's worth it!
Luohan threw the car to someone else and rode Dawa, I can also ride a horse, and I chose Meri, and the person who gave up the car and rode Duta turned out to be Nian Nian this Cantonese girl, which surprised us all a little.
"I opened a horse farm next to my hometown, and I used to play when I was a child, and I gradually became proficient in riding." Nian Nian said with a smile, and then his legs clamped the horse's back, and Du Ta rushed out like an arrow from the string, Nian Nian's movements were very skillful, and now we were all relieved.
"The steering wheel has long been touched enough, and in the future, Lao Tzu will go through the world!" Rohan rode Dawa happily to death.
I gently stroked the door of Merry's head, the only girl among the three horses, very delicate and docile, and I said into its ear, "Let me take care of you in the future, okay?" Merry snorted, twisted her ass, and made me laugh, was it responding to me?
Set off in the direction of Nanning! The three of us on horseback, galloping on the grass next to the highway, and our driving partners galloping down the road, horses are horses, no slower than off-road vehicles, and sometimes even a little faster than cars.
At noon, the three horses went to the nearby meadow to graze and find a river to drink, and we didn't have to worry about it at all, and it was easy to summon them, and Qiangba taught us that as long as we whistled, the horses would return to their masters as quickly as possible.
Tang Xiao put his universal barbecue grill in the middle of the highway again, boiling water, and then everyone brewed butter tea, and took out the milk cake and milk cubes, Zhuoma also brought us fried barley powder, when she was at her house, I don't know how simple it is to see her make tsamba with butter tea, but now we pinch it up, but it is so ugly that we can't see people, everyone laughs at each other's clumsiness, and then eats the piece of lump that I don't know what it should be called on the butter tea, well, it looks ugly, and the taste is still good.
When they got back on the road, the three horses were full of energy, running vigorously and steadily, and they didn't feel tired at all. But we're not willing to let them travel thousands of miles every day!
On the way in the afternoon, we encountered a small wave of corpses blocking the road, but also in order to verify the strength of the three little friends, we rode horses into the corpses, condescendingly chopped off their heads, the three horses are really powerful, without our orders, they themselves will trample on the front hooves, the hind hooves kick, the zombies are abused to roll on the ground, the horses' accurate head is excellent, often the hind hooves come out, the corpses are sparse, and those who were kicked by the horse's front hooves to the body fell to the ground zombies, the horses are chasing their heads and trampling, Their hooves are so hard that the zombies' skulls turn into mud at a moment's notice.
This little battle made us collectively excited, praising the horse's ability to kill corpses, although not as powerful as elephants killing corpses, but the victory is that the horses are more flexible and agile, zombies pounce on their bodies and do not wait to bite, they know how to shake their butts to dodge, obviously knowing that they must not be bitten by zombies. Coupled with the fact that the owner on horseback cooperated with him in battle, the killing efficiency was gratifying.
But the horses had a lot of corpse juice on their bodies, and we continued on, passing a stream by the side of the road, and stopped to wash the horses.
The horses also enjoyed the comfort of being bathed, standing obediently in the stream and letting us carefully wash the dirt on their bodies until they were refreshed.
Merry, who had been standing obediently in the creek, suddenly became agitated and almost shook me into the water, and then it jumped up and stepped into the water, and I reacted that there must be something in the water!
Dawa and Duta on the other side also trampled wildly into the water, and everyone hurriedly retreated to the shore, constantly whistling to tell the horses not to fall in love with the war, but to go ashore quickly.
Sure enough, a zombie drenched body suddenly appeared in the not deep stream, and the three horses turned around and jumped to the shore after a few steps, turning around and neighing at the zombies in the stream.
These zombies roared a few times, and turned around and fled towards the other end of the stream, we couldn't help but be stunned, and then reacted, these zombies were commanded by the first corpses of IQ! They were ambushed in the creek beforehand, waiting for humans to take the initiative to go to the water's edge or in the water and ambush them!
A cold sweat broke out, and we almost forgot how smart the first corpse was in Lijiang Ancient Town! I didn't expect that there would be a trap buried in a small stream!
