Chapter 64: Preparing to Escape from District Nine
Three days later, in the afternoon, inside the 511 dormitory in Building A.
The thin Wushuang lay on the bed and took a nap, and Yang Zheng gently covered her with a quilt beside her.
At this time, although the overlord of Chu who was sitting on the bed next to him still put on a cold look, in his cloudy and gloomy eyes, a trace of imperceptible softness was gradually revealed.
"You're going to keep this little oil bottle with you all the time?" King Chu said expressionlessly.
Yang Zheng glanced back at him and said in a low voice, "No, I decided to leave tonight!" ”
Overlord Chu shook his head and said, "The area around Area Nine is heavily guarded, you can't leave, and no one can get out alive from here." ”
Yang Zheng smiled confidently: "As long as I want to go out, no one can stop me." ”
Looking at his confident eyes, King Chu was stunned for a moment, obviously, he couldn't understand why Yang Zheng had such confidence.
Usually, people who can say such things are either ignorant idiots or have problems with their brains, but looking at Yang Zheng's appearance, it is obvious that he is neither.
Because, after getting along for the past few days, the king of Chu also has a general understanding of Yang Zheng's character and temper.
According to his vicious eyes, people like Yang Zheng will never brag and do not measure their own strength.
Therefore, when Yang Zheng said three times that he was confident to leave here, in the end, the Overlord of Chu began to believe a little that Yang Zheng had the ability to leave this heavily guarded cage.
After a moment of deep silence, King Chu suddenly asked, "If you really escaped unharmed, where are you going to go?" ”
"I want to go out and find a bunch of people like me, and then come back and save you." Yang Zheng replied with a serious face.
King Chu's body shook, his eyes stared at him, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Yang Zheng saw that his expression was different, and smiled: "What? You don't believe it? ”
King Chu sighed deeply and said, "I suddenly found out that you are a person with very strange ideas. ”
"Is it strange? How do I not think? ”
Yang Zheng touched his chin lightly, and suddenly asked again: "Old Chu, is the whole of China occupied by them now?" Where can truly free survivors be found? ”
King Chu lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "According to my understanding and inquiries over the past year, at present, the southeast coast of China, including eighteen provinces and cities such as inland northern and southern Hunan, have all fallen under the control of the invaders. The survivors in these places are all imprisoned in the defense bases of various counties, cities and provinces, and there are very few survivors scattered outside, and even if there are, it is estimated that the situation is very difficult, either captured by the intruder's search team, or slaughtered by mutants in the wild, so, after you leave Nanhua County, it is estimated that you will not find the real survivors in these nearby provinces and cities. ”
Speaking of this, the overlord of Chu paused, and then said: "However, more than a dozen provinces and cities such as the southeast coast and inland are all within the Lancang River, and all the provinces and cities within the Lancang River have fallen, but the seven northwestern provinces outside the Lancang River, it is said that after the catastrophe, some troops of the Chinese Federation withdrew to the northwest in time, and established a defense line on the other side of the Lancang River, and the invaders failed to break through Jiangbei in time due to insufficient troops, so beyond the Lancang River, they have not yet fallen. Three months ago, a group of survivors were sent to Area Nine, and several of them were taken back from the northwest. ”
Hearing this, Yang Zheng's heart moved, and said: "Then according to what you say, as long as I successfully pass through Guixi Province and Southern Yunnan Province, cross the Lancang River, and after arriving outside the river, I will completely leave the sphere of influence controlled by the invaders?" In that case, I can go to the northwest for help? ”
Overlord Chu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Things are not as simple as you think, last time I quietly inquired about those people in the northwest, and they said that the seven provinces in the northwest are in chaos now, and there are hundreds of armed forces large and small, all of them only care about their own interests, where will they care about us imprisoned people." ”
Yang Zheng said: "Lao Chu, I have a very doubtful matter, and I want to ask you for advice. ”
"You ask."
"Even after those invaders occupy most of the area of China, if they continue to build sieges in more than a dozen provinces and cities like now, then they will definitely spend a lot of troops and manpower, but where will they find so many people?"
King Chu smiled coldly and said, "You have forgotten that the president of the Huaxia Federal Government has already announced his surrender to them. After the surrender, there were a large number of troops and people in China, announced that they would join the Old One's Army established by the invaders, and were successfully brainwashed by the invaders. ”
"A new student?" Yang Zheng's face sank, obviously a little angry.
King Chu sighed softly and said, "We still don't know, those mysterious invaders, what race and what identity are they?" Because, among those invaders, there were whites, blacks, and a large number of yellow people, but why would they do such a heinous thing to the whole world? ”
Hearing this, Yang Zheng sneered: "Because all of them are not normal human beings, they are aliens? ”
Obviously, these invaders are the secret of genetic mutated clone xenos, except for Yang Zheng knowing, Chu Overlord doesn't know anything at all, so he didn't care too much about what Yang Zheng said just now, thinking that it was Yang Zheng's hateful words under anger.
"Lao Chu, I still have a question, that is, the armed forces of these invaders are so strong, since they can capture Huaxia in just a few days, then why don't they send troops to break through the Lancang River and occupy all the seven northwestern provinces in this year?"
Overlord Chu lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "I have also thought about this question for a long time, and then according to the various information I have heard, these invaders, they do not want to occupy all regions of the world, but they have more than enough strength but not enough. At the same time, they have built so many sieges to imprison survivors, it should have a very obvious purpose and plan, as for what their purpose and plan are, I can't guess, but in the past year or so, I have discovered a secret that no one knows, that is, to plant those black flowers on the square of District 9, they seem to have a problem. ”
Speaking of this, King Chu suddenly lowered his voice, came to Yang Zheng, and said, "In the past few days since you came in, have you smelled a strange smell in the air?" ”
Yang Zheng was shocked in his heart, he never thought that the Overlord of Chu had already discovered the abnormality of these flowers, and suddenly, Yang Zheng couldn't help but re-examine the person of Overlord Chu, because he suddenly felt that the person of Overlord Chu was not simple, and he was definitely not as sloppy and mediocre as he looked on the outside.
"There is a strange sweet smell wafting in the air, as if those black flowers emanate, and I noticed it when I came in a few days ago."
After hearing Yang Zheng's answer, King Chu slowly narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "I suspect that the smell emitted by these flowers is related to the black blood that we are extracted every day. At the same time, I suspect that the real purpose of these invaders in building these defense bases is actually to refine the smell of these black flowers, and we imprisoned people are the tools they use to collect and refine these strange smells. I'm now sure that the scent of those black flowers can't be collected through normal channels, or that other methods simply don't meet their requirements, and the most effective way is to continuously inhale the smell that permeates the air through human breathing, and then transform it into the kind of black blood they want in our body. ”
Yang Zheng was shocked, he never thought that the Overlord of Chu would be able to analyze so many secrets through his own observations.
At that moment, he took a deep breath and said, "If you guess, these black blood must be very important to them. ”
King Chu nodded and said, "If I'm not mistaken, these black blood are related to the life and death of these invaders, except for Nanhua County, it is estimated that a large number of these black flowers should be planted in all the besieged cities in other places." ”
Hearing this, Yang Zheng glanced at the Overlord of Chu deeply and said, "Old Chu, the longer I stay with you, the more I find that you are not a simple person." ”
King Chu smiled faintly and said, "I just want to live, live a little longer." I never told anyone but you about these things, and you know why? ”
Yang Zheng looked at him and said, "Why?" ”
King Chu suddenly showed a complicated expression, and said slowly: "I don't know why, I have only been with you for a few days, but I feel as if I have known you for a long time, and you said that you would save us, which is obviously impossible, but the strange thing is that I actually believe it for no reason." ”
Yang Zheng was stunned, and for a while, he didn't know what to say.
After being silent for a long time, he raised his head again, looked at Overlord Chu with a solemn face, and said, "Old Chu, I will definitely save you out." ”
Chu Bawang nodded with a smile and said, "I will work hard to live and wait for you to save me." ”
After speaking, he turned his head to look at the little girl who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and said lightly: "Don't worry, after you leave, I will take care of her for you and won't let her have anything to do." As for the rest, I have my own way of dealing with it. ”
Hearing this, Yang Zheng felt a trace of warmth in his heart and said, "Then I will rest assured." ”
"By the way, when are you going to leave? After dark? ”
"I'll leave after twelve o'clock in the evening."
……………………
When night falls, the land is dark.
However, all the dormitories in District 9 have long since turned off all the lights and fallen silent.
At this time, Yang Zheng had already made all kinds of preparations, and just as he was about to leave, suddenly, the little girl lying on the bed suddenly sat up. "Where are you going?"
Yang Zheng paused, slowly turned around, came to the side of the bed again, sat beside her, stroked her little head, and said softly: "You go to sleep quickly, I have something to do when I go out." ”
The little girl lowered her head and her voice trembled a little, "Will you come back?" ”
Yang Zheng was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "Of course, I will definitely come back." Wushuang, can you promise me one thing? ”
The little girl nodded.
"You must live well and live bravely, because you will definitely become an excellent warrior in the future."
"Warriors? Want to fight? The little girl looked up at Yang Zheng, and her eyes gradually brightened.
"Of course you have to fight, for freedom." Yang Zheng smiled and patted her thin shoulder.
"What is freedom?"
"Freedom...... Someday you'll understand......"
