199. Chapter 199 It's simple
The next day, Ding Chen really came to the old city gathering area early. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info This time he didn't go to see Xu Shuidong, but directly asked someone to call out Liu Chi, and then the two of them walked towards the depths of the ruins together.
"Still going in today?" Liu Chi asked sleepily.
He was woken up from his bed before he woke up, and his mental state was naturally not much better. At this time, he took a piece of hard dry food in his hand and asked while nibbling.
"I'm not going inside today." Ding Chen said: "Go to the building yesterday." ”
Then he looked at Liu Chi, shook his head and said, "Young people don't stay up late, it's not good for your health." ”
"I went to bed early yesterday." Liu Chi said dissatisfiedly: "I fell asleep after dark." ”
"Then why can't you wake up?" Ding Chen said in surprise: "You have slept for ten hours. ”
"We're out of power again." Liu Chi muttered, "What can you do if you don't sleep?" ”
Ding Chen glanced at him, swallowed back the words that almost burst out of his mouth, and thought to himself that he should not teach the innocent children badly. So he said to Liu Chi earnestly: "Why sleep more before you die, you will sleep forever after death." ”
This sentence is relatively straightforward, and you don't need a high level of education to understand it, so Liu Chi directly gave him a roll of his eyes and said, "Who knows when he will die?" You know, I still sleep on the urine kang at night. ”
Ding Chen pretended to be B and pretended to be SB, so he had to scratch his head, feeling that Liu Chi was so reasonable, he was speechless.
Today, Ding Chen is no longer wandering around, so the speed of the two of them is much faster. As we approached yesterday's particular building, a gunshot suddenly rang out in the distance.
Liu Chi was startled, and in a few steps he ran to the side of a building on the side of the road, leaning against the wall and raising a gun on guard.
Ding Chen glanced at him and said lightly: "It's far away from us." As soon as he finished speaking, his face suddenly changed, and he rushed towards Liu Chi with a gun. Before Liu Chi could fight back, Ding Chen had already picked up his rifle and knocked a snake hanging from the vine above Liu Chi's head and flew out.
Liu Chi was startled, looked at the snake that flew into the grass, and wiped a cold sweat. This snake has a name that is very suitable for the protagonist, called Ergouzi, which is very poisonous, and if it bites its head, it can basically be declared dead. If it is usual, when Liu Chi approaches the grass, he will pay attention to observe whether there are snakes and insects inside. But when he heard the gunshots just now, he was so nervous that he ignored the danger.
Ding Chen flew the poisonous snake and patted Liu Chi on the shoulder, but did not speak, let alone blame him. In fact, no one can really see and listen to all directions at the same time, even if it is replaced by Ding Chen himself, he can't do everything in the chaos, and most of the time he still has to fight for character.
What he said to Liu Chi just now was not comforting, the gunfire was indeed far away from them, closer to the center of the ruins. But his mood was not as relaxed as he said.
Although Xu Shuidong's people occupy a corner of the old city, their sphere of influence cannot cover the ruins, so the center of the ruins is actually a paradise for adventurers. Just as Ding Chen is reluctant to venture into the ruins of a city during the summer when his creatures are at their most vibrant, most scavengers choose to concentrate on adventure activities in spring and autumn. On the one hand, because the temperature is moderate in these two seasons, there is no need to wear thick cotton clothes to affect movement and perception like in winter, nor to wear a full set of clothes like in summer and then get covered by heat stroke.
Especially in the fall, as winter approaches, the competition among waste pickers becomes more intense, and everyone wants to have more resources and survive the winter safely.
Often, there is a fierce backlash between scavengers, but there are few senseless shootings. After all, for waste pickers, the lifespan of bullets and guns is very valuable, and it is impossible to waste them on meaningless things. There were no rich among the scavengers, and there was no surplus food from the landlords.
Therefore, the gunfire just now is likely to indicate that a certain scavenger has died in Huangquan.
Although Ding Chen is not a professional garbage picker, he still can't understand this kind of internal friction, and of course he won't feel very comfortable when he hears the gunshot.
Liu Chi escaped from under the Shekou, and his previous admiration for Ding Chen rose from the bottom of his heart again, and he trusted him even more. Hearing Ding Chen say that the gunshots were still far away, he put a little snack. So he put away the gun and complained to Ding Chen: "We should bring a few more people." ”
Ding Chen glanced at Liu Chi and understood what he meant. Often, scavengers attack others with the intention of killing people and stealing goods. And most of the time, scavengers do it alone, so if there are too many people on the other side to eat in one bite, there is no need to attack, not only wasting resources, but also putting themselves in danger.
A two-person team like himself and Liu Chi now, although it is a little more troublesome than ordinary lone scavengers, but under normal circumstances, the combat effectiveness of civilians in the gathering area is much worse than that of scavengers, and when they enter the city ruins to explore, they carry more materials on their bodies, which happens to be the favorite target of those scavengers who like to hunt the same kind.
Ding Chen glanced at Liu Chi and comforted: "It's okay, your gun is not vegetarian." ”
Liu Chi smiled bitterly, not feeling how intimate this comfort was at all. Although he is young, he is already past the age of Secondary 2, so naturally he will not take the initiative to look for danger in order to show whether his gun has religious beliefs. And more often than not, he would rather let people say that his gun doesn't eat pork than find a chance to falsify it.
The two men continued on their way, and soon reached the target building. This time, Ding Chen was very well prepared. He took Liu Chi to the side wall of the building, looked up at the fire ladder hanging above his head, then put the rifle against the wall and cleaned up the clothes on his body. Then he said to Liu Chi: "Come here." ”
Liu Chi walked over inexplicably, stood with his back against the wall according to Ding Chen's instructions, and asked, "What are you doing?" ”
"Of course, I'll ask you to help me get up." Ding Chen said: "Do you think I want to go head-to-head with you? I'm not a duke. ”
He asked Liu Chi to put down the rifle, folded his hands in front of his abdomen, palms up, and then said: "After a while, I jumped up and stepped on your hand, and you lifted me up, can you do it?" ”
Liu Chi thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's very simple. ”
Ding Chen glanced at him, shook his head and said, "Let's try it first." ”
Then the first test really failed shamefully, Liu Chi didn't expect Ding Chen to step on it so hard, and he couldn't lift Ding Chen up at once. Originally, Ding Chen could have taken another step and stepped on his shoulder to jump, but he didn't expect Liu Chi's head to swing when his hands were strong, and Ding Chen's kick on Liu Chi's shoulder happened to step on his face.
Because he felt early, Ding Chen didn't use his strength for this kick, and as a result, he fell directly on Liu Chi's body, and the two of them rolled into a ball. almost stepped on Liu Chi's nose and took a blood.
Ding Chen got up from the ground and asked Liu Chi, "It's not simple, right?" ”
Liu Chi shook his dizzy head and shouted, "Come again." ”
Ding Chen saw half a footprint on his head at a glance, and he couldn't hold back for a moment and laughed out loud.
