It was getting late.

Worm lay in the cab of the pickup, dangling her upturned legs for a while, and she hummed softly to a not-so-beautiful melody, trying to make herself look less lost.

According to the agreement between her and the turtledove, the two of them can go their separate ways after arriving in Poplar Town, the little worm pauses here to replenish food and water, and the turtledove returns to the mouse city, after all, he has helped the little worm so much, and the turtledove no longer owes the little worm anything.

But as Hannibal said, "It's easy to tell whether human favors come and go", at least now the pair of young people of Turtledove and Worm are in such distress that they don't owe each other anything, but they feel that something is missing.

She has known many people, but there are few who are both peers and friends like turtledoves, so she cherishes the turtledove.

It is precisely because the little insect cherishes the turtle dove that it will be categorically vetoed when the turtle dove says, "It's better to wait until your injury is completely healed, let's separate again", the little insect doesn't want someone to accompany her, it's just that she knows that she has a bad road ahead, and the turtle dove doesn't need to accompany her to adventure.

"I hope he will live happily in the future, so he is really good."

After muttering a few words to herself, the little worm rolled over and got up from her seat, she didn't know why she had been here for so long, she was supposed to be able to leave after replenishing supplies.

Seeing that it was getting dark, she had to go, there was still a long way to go from here to the oasis, and a long road awaited her.

……

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the town.

Worm didn't know what was going on outside, she hid in the car, looked out the window, and saw many cars with rattlesnake flags driving into the town, carrying many wounded, everyone was shouting, the voices were noisy, and Worm couldn't tell what they were shouting.

More vehicles, more wounded, more noise.

Judging from the flags on those cars, the worms are all members of the Rattlesnake Legion, and they have a little understanding of this local land snake, and looking at the appearance of these people, they probably suffered a defeat outside.

Thinking of this, Xiao Worm planned to quietly start the car and leave Poplar Town, she had seen what it was like for these gangs to fight for territory, like a pack of mad dogs biting together, and if she continued to stay in Poplar Town, she might be affected.

……

"These cars are all requisitioned by our Sidewinder Legion!"

Before the little worm who had just sat in the driver's seat could start the pickup, she heard this sentence from the boiling voices, and then a large number of people with guns walked towards the parking lot.

This place is dedicated to parking vehicles for outsiders, not just a small worm, these car owners who are already nearby, of course, can't watch their cars being requisitioned by the Sidewinder Legion, they are also all perennial outside the law, with a big temper and a big boldness.

A temporary "alliance" was formed, and car owners from all over the world stood in a line to stop the people of the Rattlesnake Legion.

The Rattlesnake Legion can have twenty or thirty people, which is less than half of the "alliance", but they have the home advantage and the back-up, and they want to break through the human wall with great momentum.

As the clashes between the two sides intensified, the man who had been shouting for the requisition of the car saw that the situation was out of control, he raised his rifle and fired into the sky, which was called a warning shot.

However, the car owners are not good at stubble, everyone is eating in a place outside the law, who has not heard a few gunshots, and there are many people present who have been bulleted, how can they be frightened by your three or two gunshots.

So after the burst of gunfire rang out, the car owners took out their weapons and fired at the sky in the same way.

Fortunately, everyone still maintained the most basic restraint, and the bullets only hit the sky, not anyone's body, otherwise once the gun went off, the situation would not be easy to clean up.

Both sides stared wide-eyed, trying to requisition cars to supplement the wear and tear of the fleet, and on the other hand, they wanted to protect their own property, but neither of them would budge.

Drinking, scolding, pushing, but no one really did it.

……

The farce lasted about ten minutes, and finally ended with the Rattlesnake Legion giving up: a member of the Rattlesnake Legion came running and said something to the leader in a panic, who immediately stopped caring about the broken cars and led his men to leave the place in a hurry.

The victorious "Alliance" cheered, but the little worm in the pickup frowned, and she had a faint sense of foreboding in her heart, - at the height of the dispute between the two sides, the little worm heard a wild roar in the distance.

I hope it's not what I think.

At this moment, the little worm could not care about anything else, she activated the pickup and prepared to flee from Poplar Town, even if she was worried about the battle wave, the little worm was not so nervous, because she had a premonition that an unexpected disaster was approaching here.

The pickup's engine roared, and the bug stepped on the accelerator without hesitation.

……

"Wanderer! It's a loiterer! ”

A hoarse scream reached the worm's ears, and the town of Poplar, which had finally quieted down a little, boiled again, and everyone who heard the scream showed a look of shock, then fear, and finally despair.

Some people are running aimlessly, some people are standing still and seem to be frightened, and some people are simply kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly......

The cars in the parking lot were started one after another, and the residents of the town were also looking for all the means of transportation that could be used, and everyone was like ants poured into the ant nest by boiling water, scattering and fleeing.

Worm had a lot of advantages ahead of the others, she drove the pickup truck all the way down the rough roads in Poplar Town, knocking over many things along the way, but even so, Worm still felt that the car was not going fast enough, and she was so anxious that she was sweating, and there was even a crystal one on the tip of her nose.

In the face of this impending disaster, the fight between the Rattlesnake Legion and other forces has become a joke, similar to a child's fight, after all, the Rattlesnake Legion and other forces are all aimed at destroying each other, and will not kill the residents of the town.

Population is also a resource, other forces defeated the Rattlesnake Legion in order to grab the territory, if all the residents in Poplar Town are killed, then what is the use of them grabbing the territory, the empty Poplar Town cannot provide them with "protection money".

However, "loiters" are different, they do not need "protection money", they are real disasters.
