The entire layout of the Lion's base is distributed according to the town's original cross streets.

Some of the outermost buildings at the intersection are generally inhabited by armed combatants at the base, because in the event of an invasion by a foreign enemy, these combatants can assemble in the shortest possible time and then prepare weapons to resist.

In order to avoid too many casualties and losses caused by the dense number of personnel, Nie Meng was on the periphery of the base, and the personnel deployment was not very dense, which caused Yang Zheng and the others to enter the base from the entrance, and on the streets along the way, except for some armed personnel patrolling, there was basically not a single survivor and ordinary people.

In addition to the armed personnel of the base, ordinary survivors such as the elderly, weak, women and children in the Lion base account for the vast majority.

Similarly, in order to prevent the enemy's artillery bombardment, Nie Meng also ordered some important materials and supplies in the base to be transferred to some hidden and safe places in the center of the town for storage.

Under Yang Zheng's urging, Ah Can trotted all the way to lead Yang Zheng towards the central area of the base.

Since the offices and residences of the various leaders in the base are all located in the first half of the base, it must be at least a few hundred meters away from them to the center of the town where the survivors live.

After walking along the street for less than ten minutes, Yang Zheng clearly saw that on the street more than ten meters in front of him, there were once again roadblocks and watchtowers.

At this time, Ah Can panted and introduced to Yang Zheng: "This is the base camp of our lion base, and it is also the residence of all ordinary survivors. ”

Seeing this scene, Yang Zheng nodded and said, "Fortunately, this town is still quite large-scale and has obvious geographical advantages, otherwise, like an ordinary town, where would there be so many buildings for thousands of people to live in." ”

Regarding the entire layout and deployment of the Lion base, although Yang Zheng is not very expert, he still thinks it is quite reasonable.

Arranging all the elderly, weak, women and children and other ordinary people in the central area can not only protect their safety, but also better manage them centrally.

The watchtowers and roadblocks around the base are basically the last line of defense arranged by Nie Meng, and they are not used to check the residents passing by.

Therefore, when Yang Zheng and Ah Can passed by the roadcar, several armed personnel guarding the watchtower did not stop the inspection, but greeted Ah Can with a smile.

After entering the central area of the base, it was immediately another lively scene.

On the streets of the central area, children frolicking and chasing, old people walking on crutches, women returning from laundry and vegetables, some young mothers sitting on the side of the street chatting with babies in their arms, and a group of men returning from farming with hoes and shovels on their shoulders, everything seems so familiar and vibrant.

At this time, several naughty boys chased in the direction of Yang Zheng with red faces and thick necks, Yang Zheng hurriedly got out of the way to avoid, and in an empty hardware store behind him, there were several white-headed old men, who were playing chess in a group, and they didn't know who repented of the chess first, which caused the old man opposite to shout and displeasure for a while. In the long-defunct visit next door, a group of young women were constantly mending and improving piles of clothes, very busy and serious.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Yang Zheng wouldn't have believed that in this abandoned and desolate world everywhere, there was still a scene full of noisy and vibrant downtown in front of him.

Although there is no roar of cars, no too gorgeous neon lights, and no lively music from the computer speakers in the store on the street in the past, and some bloody TV series that I don't know how many times I have watched, Yang Zheng still feels very moved.

The crowd after a long absence! I've finally found you!

It's a good feeling!

Ah Can, who was next to him, seemed to notice the change in Yang Zheng's mood, sighed softly at the moment, and said, "Seeing these scenes in front of you, do you remember the past?" ”

Yang Zheng nodded and was silent.

Ah Can also nodded and said: "I was the same as you before, there will always be a trace of inexplicable sadness in my heart when I see this, and I will always involuntarily think of the past, the village where Xiao Zheng and I once lived, the town where we lived, the friends and family we used to have, and the girl who had a crush together in junior high school, hehe......"

Hearing this, Yang Zheng smiled: "I always heard Yang Zheng say that when you were young, you often fought for that girl, and for a while, you even swore that you would never pay attention to each other again. ”

Ah Can touched the ponytail on the back of his head, and smiled awkwardly: "Yes, I was quite naïve at that time, and I didn't understand anything!" When I was in junior high school, I would develop relatively quickly, my face was covered with pimples, I was not as good-looking as Xiao Zheng, and I didn't have good grades like Xiao Zheng, so people got closer to Xiao Zheng, which made me very unhappy, and in order to retaliate against him, I spread rumors everywhere in the school, saying that Xiao Zheng always ran to peek at what people were doing in the shower......"

As soon as these words came out, Yang Zheng exploded on the spot, "What? I'll fuck you uncle, it turns out that this incident is a rumor spread by your dog? paralyzed, and then she ignored ...... Poplar...... Yang Zheng, it's all because of the good things you did? I'll fuck your uncle, do you know that you ruined the beautiful first love of your best brother? ”

"Hehe......"

Speaking of this, both of them involuntarily raised their heads and laughed, laughing so much that tears flowed out......

…………

At the door of a half-new bungalow, Yang Zheng and Ah Can stopped.

"This is it, Xiao Zheng's father and eldest brother, they should come back from work, go, go in."

Ah Can patted Yang Zheng on the shoulder and motioned for him to hurry in, but after pulling a few times, he found that Yang Zheng's body was stiff and he couldn't move at all.

At that moment, he turned his head and found that Yang Zheng was standing at the door with some dementia, his eyes had already been invested in the room, and his eyes were full of complex emotions.

Seeing this scene, Ah Can's heart moved slightly, he didn't speak again, and he didn't urge Yang Zheng to enter the house again.

It was already dark, and candles were flashing in the room.

A middle-aged woman was wiping the dust on the wooden table with a rag with her thin waist and withered hands, because it was about to start the meal.

The woman's withered yellow cheeks were covered with markings, and many silver threads had appeared in the hair of her temples, Yang Zheng looked at her back stupidly, and for a while, he didn't dare to take a step forward.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, the woman suddenly stopped her hands and turned her head to look out of the house.

"Auntie, it's me, Ah Can!" At this time, Ah Can immediately pulled Yang Zheng into the house together.

"Xiao Can, why are you here now, this is Xiao Zheng's friend Xiao Yang, right?" Mother Yang pretended to be displeased and nagged Ah Can a few words, but her eyes kept secretly looking at Yang Zheng who was standing beside him, especially when she saw Yang Zheng for the first time, she faintly felt a hint of familiarity, which made her a little puzzled.

Yang Zheng looked at his mother who had been absent for a long time, he wanted to speak, but found that his throat had been choked for a long time, he took a deep breath, and whispered with emotion: "Uncle...... Aunt is so ......"

Mother Yang suddenly stiffened, stunned for a moment, "Sit...... Sit down and drink tea, I'm going to call Xiao Zheng's father and his eldest brother to come out now......"
