Chapter 35: Survivors
Because of Sien's words last night, Liu Cheng had to advance some things, and this made him realize that there were really too few people available, and the list of materials handed over by Sien early in the morning also dazzled him, but fortunately, many of them were not difficult to obtain, and the only thing he needed was to take the time to go outside. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoSo early in the morning, everyone was gathered again, and Liu Cheng decided to divide the tasks and everyone acted separately in exchange for a shortened time.
"Last night, we talked about the recent transfer and the construction of the future base, and we called everyone here today because Sien has sorted out the materials we urgently need overnight, so we must try to collect these resources before the transfer, especially some necessary resources, otherwise it will affect the follow-up plan. Ye Lei, today you will lead the team, Zhanhai Zhancheng and Sun Hao will go together, and then select a few survivors with excellent driving skills, I need you to go to two nearby brick factories to find construction vehicles, we need at least one forklift, one excavator and two large transport trucks; Li Binyuan, Yang Bin, Yang Cheng, and Song Qiang formed a team, Deng Xianfeng served as a guide, and Li Jinyuan led the team to the downstream sand quarries and quarries to clean out all the boats that could be used, and if conditions permitted, they also had to investigate the nearby environment in detail, and these two places were of great use to the future construction of the base. I want to go back to my hometown, Cai Lianxue, Liu Shanlin and I go with a team, the journey is expected to take three to four days, passing through five villages, four villages, six villages and then returning, if there are people who need to be found by the way, you can count a list before departure. Sien is in charge of staying behind, and I will leave the Demonized Thunder Eagle and Spirit Sparrow here, but the necessary vigilance and defense cannot be relaxed. "Originally, Liu Cheng planned to go home first and look for a few other brothers along the way, and then transfer, and then collect resources. But last night, Sien's words changed his decision. Although this is now dispersing the forces and there is a certain risk, the people here are all high-level leaders of the base in the future, and they always have to have some experience to succeed, so even if Yang Bin and Deng Xianfeng are not evolutionaries, Liu Cheng still arranges them to go out to perform tasks, which is also a kind of foreshadowing and way to serve the public in the future.
While Liu Cheng and the others were preparing the vehicles and waiting for the statistical results, Ye Lei set off with the personnel first. Since the two brick factories were not far from the chemical plant in a straight line, Ye Lei did not use the limited number of vehicles, but took people on foot.
Ye Lei's first target was at the foot of the hill opposite the chemical plant, a local brick factory that grew larger and bigger when it became popular in the countryside to convert old tiled houses into small western-style buildings. This place is only a hundred and ten meters away from Ye Lei's house, and the boss is his own family, so Ye Lei knows much more about this place than others, which is why Liu Cheng arranged for him to be in charge of this task.
Although the brick factory is now dilapidated, it was once glorious, so it covers a lot of land, and although it has gradually declined with the completion of the reconstruction of houses in the countryside, the original buildings and equipment are still there. Ye Lei and his party of seven people, four of whom are evolutionaries, Zhan Cheng also has a war pet mutant rat king, after these days of cultivation, the mutant rat king has regained his combat power again, which makes Ye Lei have a certain confidence in completing the task.
"The door of the brickyard is locked, and it is estimated that there are survivors inside." When he came to the outside of the brick factory, Ye Lei did not directly kill the inside of the brick factory, after all, this is a factory, even if it declines, if the people inside become aliens, it is not something that a few people on his side can face, so he first asked Zhanhai to summon a stone monkey to investigate the situation, "There are six aliens wandering in the workers' accommodation area, which are relatively scattered, and as for other places, they can no longer be seen from the outside, you can try to summon a stone monkey from inside the gate to continue to investigate." ”
Cautiously coming to the gate of the brick factory, Ye Lei found that the gate was indeed locked, but it was obviously locked from the outside: "This lock is locked from the outside, I'm afraid there are no survivors inside." Saying that, Ye Lei looked around, "There is a small village over there, let's go over there to find out the situation first, and it would be best if we could find someone who knows more about the situation inside." At the very least, find out if the village is safe before you act, and don't end up making dumplings. ”
The small village is not far from the brick factory, about 200 meters, and there is no shelter between the two, just a clearing overgrown with weeds in betweeds. Since there was no cover, there was no need to be cautious, and the group walked over generously. There were no xenos outside the village, and there was no movement in the village, which is the status quo in most places after the apocalypse.
"After Sun Hao's Palace, Zhanhai Zhancheng is responsible for the two wings." When approaching the first house, Ye Lei quickly arranged the orientation of several evolutionary people, and protected a few drivers who came with him in the middle, but he was the first to open the way. The door of this house was wide open, and there was a little blood on the floor, and there were even traces of dragging, but all the rooms were searched and there were no xenos. However, Ye Lei found that some useful things in the house were missing, such as daily necessities and food, all of which indicated that there were survivors who had visited the place.
"Go to the next one." The village is not big, and it is estimated that there are only seven or eight families, and there are several families that have not been found, but Ye Lei is not in a hurry, because all of them indicate that there are survivors who have visited here. However, judging from the current situation, the survivors who patronized this village were either evolutionaries or brave and resourceful, otherwise they could not have raided all the families in the village.
"Have you already left?" After searching the last one but finding nothing, Sun Hao put forward his own opinion.
"Wait, my rat king has a reaction, and it says there's human breath over there." Just when everyone agreed with Sun Hao's guess and was about to leave the village, Zhan Cheng stopped everyone.
Behind a haystack at the back of the village, there was a sudden sound of a rope, and a boy of twelve or thirteen years old screamed in horror and quickly got up and ran towards the hillside behind the village.
When Zhan Cheng reminded him, Ye Lei also noticed the strangeness of the haystack, and at this time, he saw a little boy crawl out, and Ye Lei chased after him as soon as his body moved. This little guy seems to be an evolutionary, and he seems to have a good way of hiding his own aura, and the mutant rat king has just noticed it, but his speed is not worth mentioning in front of Ye Lei, a fourth-order physical evolutionary, but he was caught up by Ye Lei six or seven meters away from the grass.
Holding the neckline of the little guy in one hand, Ye Lei looked at the bitten arm and was a little speechless, just in the face of a little guy, what could he do? Even this little guy is still dancing and trying to resist at this time. Carrying the little guy into a house that looked to be somewhat defensive, Sun Hao and the others naturally locked the doors and windows and left a guard at the key point.
In the face of all kinds of struggles, Ye Lei had no other way, took out a bottle of canned fruit from his backpack and shook it in front of the little guy's eyes, the little guy immediately quieted down, and a pair of eyes stared at the can as if he had lost focus, and he couldn't move away anymore, only the action of swallowing saliva remained.
Taking the can back, Ye Lei said: "Listen to the little guy, we are not bad people, we won't hurt you, we just want to find someone to understand the specific situation in the brick factory." If you can tell me the situation, or help me find someone who can tell me the situation, this can is yours. ”
The little guy was rarely quiet, looked at Ye Lei and then looked at the can in Ye Lei's hand, and finally he chose to believe the can: "I know the situation in the brick factory, but you have to give me the can first." ”
Seeing the little guy's expression that you won't say anything if you don't agree, Ye Lei directly handed over the canned food: "Okay, let's talk about it now!" ”
When the can arrived, the little guy swallowed again, but he couldn't help but open it and taste: "If you are not bad people, then it is better not to go into the brick factory, because there is a powerful guy in it, and even those man-eating monsters are not its opponents." ”
"Awesome guys? How powerful it is, you tell me what it is. Hearing the little guy say this, Ye Lei's heart immediately rose, thinking that there could be some perverted monster in this brick factory.
"That awesome guy is a big yellow dog, more than a meter tall, and I've seen it bite a monster to death from outside the door, and then eat it as food." The little guy said with a frightened look, "Okay, I've told you everything I know, I'm leaving." The little guy said as he cautiously moved towards the door, not knowing whether he was worried that Ye Lei would not let him go or that Ye Lei would snatch the can back.
"Little one, it's dangerous out there, we have a lot of survivors in the chemical plant, and we will build a safe base in the future, you can go back with us with the others." In fact, the little guy's desire for canned food and restraint Ye Lei saw it in his eyes just now, but he didn't expose it, it is likely that there are other survivors behind the little guy, but they seem to be very distrustful of outsiders, so Ye Lei just mentioned it and let the little guy go.
"Just let this little guy go? Aren't you afraid that he will lie? Watching the little guy disappear on the back hillside of the village, Zhanhai finally asked, "Do you want to follow and have a look?" ”
"It doesn't look like he's lying. And whether he is lying or not, we have to go to the brick factory, this is our task, no matter how difficult it is, we must find a way to complete it, which is related to the construction of the base in the future. Ye Lei didn't care too much about the whereabouts of the little guy, at this time he was only concerned about how to move back the useful things in the brick factory. As for those possible survivors, it is up to them to choose.
