"I have nothing to say about these, if you insist on going over, don't blame me for not reminding you, without our delivery, you will be shot into a hornet's nest at any time!" The middle-aged man shook his head again and again, his attitude was very resolute, and he did not reveal the inside story. Pen%Fun%Pavilion www.biquge.info'
Wang Cheng wanted to say something at this time, but he was stopped by Zhou Yunfeng, and then he stepped forward and said: "This sir, we came from a long way away, since Yecheng can't enter, can you tell us if there is a city nearby that is safer, we plan to go over there first." ”
"The closest to here is Xincheng, where the current situation is quite stable, you can go there, it is safe to follow this route, it was only cleaned a few months ago along the way, and some sentry points have been established on the road, it should not be a problem to follow the route I said......" As he spoke, the middle-aged man took out a map from his pocket and pointed out a safe route with his hand.
Seeing this, Zhou Yunfeng took his mobile phone, took a map photo, and then thanked him: "Thank you, sir, let's leave." ”
The middle-aged man didn't say anything, just silently put away the map, waved to them, then turned around and walked back to the car, back to the gathering place in front of him.
After the military vehicle drove away, Zhou Yunfeng sighed helplessly and said to Wang Cheng: "You also saw it, the officer didn't seem to be joking with us, we can't go to Yecheng for the time being, let's go to Xincheng first, we should be able to inquire about some information over there, and then we will find a way to see if we can go to Yecheng." ”
"Okay......" Wang Cheng nodded with a heavy face, and also figured it out, at present, he can only go to Xincheng first, and the matter of going to Yecheng has to be retreated again, although he is very helpless, but there is no way to do it.
Their current location, about twenty kilometers away from Xincheng, is not very far, and the officer informed them of a safe route, which is very helpful to them, so that they do not have to choose a detour, which saves a lot of time.
Walking on the route they had just learned, after about an hour, they did see a few outposts, and this route had to pass through some small towns, although the towns looked depressed, and there were no living people, but there were no polluters, and they had been cleared by the army. `
Zhou Yunfeng guessed that this was a safe route specially cleared out to be used as a communication route between cities, and Yecheng, as a large city in the nearby area, was heavily guarded, and vaguely became a central hub nearby, communicating with some other cities.
On the way, Zhou Yunfeng checked the map information, and the middle-aged officer was right, Xincheng is indeed the closest city to Yecheng, and it is also the one second only to Yecheng in size, and it must have been helped by Yecheng.
Three hours later, Zhou Yunfeng and the others had already seen the outline of Xincheng, because the light was relatively dim, and most places in the city were illuminated by lights, which were obviously installed later, and the original city would not have such dense street lights.
The whole Xincheng, in a dim environment, is like a big lantern that flickers brightly.
Although Xincheng is already close at hand, but Zhou Yunfeng and they have not relaxed, they are here for the first time, and they don't know what the situation is inside, in this special period, where there are many people, it is indispensable to guard against people, sometimes people are more dangerous than those polluters!
After entering Xincheng, the three of them silently walked towards the center, their eyes looked around from time to time, they thought that a wall would be built here to completely surround the city, but in fact it was not the case, they did not see the towering wall.
Some people live in the original houses, and there are many tents set up on the streets, due to the influx of a large number of people fleeing for their lives, Xincheng is now overpopulated, and those who cannot live in houses can only sleep in tents in the streets and alleys.
As soon as there are many people, it becomes very difficult to manage, and everywhere he sees is garbage and waste products, disorganized, Zhou Yunfeng feels that there is a bit of chaos here, and no one seems to manage it, which makes him feel a little uneasy, especially those who cast their eyes on them.
Walking on the street, with a lot of luggage, the arrival of Zhou Yunfeng and the three seems to have attracted the attention of many people, some are curious, and some have bad intentions, among these people, most of them are yellow and thin, and they are caused by not having enough food for a long time.
At this time, Zhou Yunfeng had a feeling that the three of them were monkeys in the circus, and he was surrounded by many people. `
"Brother Zhou, Brother 6, a lot of people are watching us, there won't be trouble, right?" Wang Cheng also felt a little uneasy, and some of the eyes cast by him contained danger.
"Don't talk, just keep walking, even if someone comes, don't worry." Zhou Yunfeng replied.
6 Xing walked expressionlessly, did not feel any discomfort, and only occasionally glanced back at the gazes that came.
At this moment, they want to find a suitable place to stay, it is best to have a house to live in, but it seems unlikely, the house has long been occupied by the first people, and they can only retreat to find an open area with few people.
After looking around for a while, they couldn't find a suitable place, and the more central the location, the more people gathered.
They walked some more distance, and a few hundred meters in front of them, a towering fence appeared, which was still in the construction stage in part and was being worked on by lights.
Xincheng is not without building a wall to resist danger, it is estimated that in order to shorten the time of the project, and face the problem of insufficient materials, so it was built in a more central area, and it is not capable of surrounding the entire Xincheng.
There are entrances under the wall, but without exception, all of them are heavily guarded by armed men, and you don't have to think about it to know that not everyone inside can enter, otherwise there would not be so many people outside the outer wall, and if they could get in, who would be stupid enough to stay outside.
With a fence in the way, they had no choice but to turn around and wander around, hoping to find a suitable place nearby as a temporary foothold.
"Brother Zhou, someone is approaching us." Halfway through, Wang Cheng suddenly spoke.
Even if Wang Cheng didn't say anything, Zhou Yunfeng noticed that there were six people walking towards him on the left, and then he whispered: "The pistol is ready, don't hesitate if you fight, don't let people think that we are soft persimmons that can be bullied casually......"
Someone approached, and the three of them simply didn't continue to go, and waited in the same place until the other party came to the other.
"What district are you from?" After the six people approached, a bald man in the lead asked, with a sense of arrogance in his tone, his hands crossed on his chest, looking very dragging, and the five people behind him all had fierce expressions.
A few people look healthy-skinned, not as thin as most people, and at a glance they know that they are mixing well here, at least they can eat and drink enough.
"What which district? I don't understand what you mean. Zhou Yunfeng glanced at a few people, and said very calmly, not frightened by the other party's momentum.
"Oh, it's new, that's easy." When the bald man heard Zhou Yunfeng's words, he immediately reacted, knowing that it was the first time they had come to Xincheng, so he didn't know this.
"To tell you the truth, this area near us is the territory of our Song boss, you are a few newcomers, it is not in accordance with the rules to break in casually, I see that you all have brought these more luggage, open it and I'll see what it is, hand over half of it to our boss, forget it."
Knowing that they were new here, the bald man suddenly became a lot bolder, and planned to take the opportunity to get something, he had done this kind of thing before, and there was someone on top of him, even if it was a big deal.
"Since this is your territory, then we leave and want luggage, impossible!" Zhou Yunfeng said lightly, and after speaking, he took out his pistol and pointed it at the bald man.
Wang Cheng and 6 Xing also took out their pistols, and suddenly, the six people were pointed at by three pistols.
None of them were iron-clad, and it was impossible for them not to be afraid in the face of a pistol, and their arrogance disappeared a lot, but the bald man didn't seem to be too willing, and then said: "Don't think that if you rob me, you're afraid, there are many people with guns, and this place prohibits killing, don't think that things are ...... like this."
Before he finished speaking, 6 Xing moved the muzzle of the gun, aimed it at the thigh of the bald man, and fired a shot without hesitation.
Suddenly, a miserable scream sounded, the bald man fell to the ground, his hands covered the part hit by the bullet, tears flowed from pain, and the other five people were suddenly frightened by the sudden change.
Even Zhou Yunfeng and Wang Cheng didn't expect that 6 Xing would shoot without saying a word.
"Let's go, let's go somewhere else." After being stunned for two seconds, Zhou Yunfeng came back to his senses and didn't feel that something was wrong, 6 Xing deliberately shot his thigh, but he didn't kill anyone, as long as he didn't cause any trouble, there should be no problem.
He also understood that the reason why 6 Xing did this was to get rid of these guys in front of him, and by the way, to deter other people nearby, so as to avoid people coming to find trouble in the future.
As for Boss Song in their mouths, he is not too afraid, he and others have been robbed, and it is unlikely that the other party will mess around.
Moreover, in this chaotic place, some troubles cannot be avoided at all, and when the time comes, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and they still have this confidence.
Along the way, they have experienced a lot of dangerous scenes, and this thing does not frighten them.
Ignoring those few people, Zhou Yunfeng and the three of them turned around and left, and the scene just now also attracted a lot of attention, but no one came to take care of it, it doesn't seem to be a new thing, many people have seen similar scenes, and they have long been surprised.
As for the bald man, he was quickly carried away by several companions, wailing from time to time.
The matter didn't make any waves, and no one took care of it, it was enough to see that the situation in Xincheng was very chaotic, and the bald man said that killing people was prohibited here, but the actual situation was not necessarily the case, and there was nothing that could be done about the chaos here.
Or in a sense, they don't want to care about the people outside the outer walls, their very existence is a burden, so many mouths have to eat every day, and the consumption of food is even more terrifying than imagined.
Once there is too little food, it is estimated that these people outside will be the first to be abandoned.
