Chapter 29: Shut Out
After spending the last night on the road, the four of them marched towards the Beihai base in the face of the rising sun. This is a relatively backward province in the country, so the environment is relatively well protected. The green trees on the side of the road are all tall and strong. The closer you get to the base, the more people you meet, and finally return to human society, no longer the feeling of just four people wandering the world.
"When we arrive at the base in a while, Ye Fan and I will inquire about the situation, and you will find a place to settle down and take care of our car." Fei Qian has already made a plan, the specific situation is still good to inquire about by himself, and the car should also be optimistic, judging from the situation of the people he met before, there is a refugee camp outside the city, and life is very bad.
"Let Qingqing go too, I'll just watch the car alone, whoever dares to come grandpa will let him know the role of the fist." Wang Meng is still very confident in his fighting skills, and just outside the base, no one will dare to make a fuss.
"Here we are." Just when Wang Meng was about to say something, Ye Fan saw a row of "private houses" in front of him. "It's either tents or makeshift shelters made of asbestos tiles and stuff, and it really looks like a refugee camp.
"It seems that the people at this base are really not very good for the survivors." Yang Qing said with a little anger, tents, except for those in the car like them, almost everyone who escapes for their lives will have them, looking at the crooked and different colors of the tents in front of them, you can know that this is definitely not issued by the base, and some of the simple sheds built are not as good as the previous pigsty.
"It's not so much that the people in power of this base are not very good, but that the force of this base is definitely not bad, there are not only a few hundred people here, at least about two thousand, so many people, there must be people with special abilities who can't force the base to open the door, it can be seen that the firepower of the Beihai base is not bad." Fei Qian said with a smile that in his opinion, sooner or later the base will be occupied by the supernatural, who can be said to be a newly evolved human being, and it is constantly getting stronger. It may not be able to compete with the base now, but in the future, when all the food outside is eaten, the zombies will come here sooner or later, and at that time, without the help of the supernatural, these so-called elites hiding in turtle shells do not know if they can survive the catastrophe safely. The people in power at the North Sea base are really pig-brained! Offend the Stranger now, and wait to be killed later.
The RV stopped at the periphery of the camp, Fei Qian, Ye Fan and Yang Qing got off in turn, they wanted to go through the camp to the base to have a look, and Wang Meng was looking for a location as a place to live in the future. It's impossible to drive a car like this and keep a low profile. Fei Qian's arrival attracted the attention of many people, and the smart ones naturally knew that it was definitely not ordinary people who could safely drive such a car to the base, so they put away their thoughts early that they shouldn't have. The greedy ones are planning whether to gather some people to kill them and then take the car for themselves, and then there are those who have no one in sight, and they have already begun to move on to the wind.
"I'll bet ten yuan, and when we come back, Wang Meng will definitely beat up someone who has fallen on the ground." Of course, Ye Fan felt all kinds of strange eyes, but she didn't care at all, there were still rocket launchers in the car, and there were many other weapons, coupled with Wang Meng's increasingly awesome physique and strength, if you want to get the RV, it is best to pull a platoon, and it has to be the kind with a gun.
"Is RMB still in circulation?" This is also a question that Fei Qian is concerned about, judging from the previous inquiry, what is directly circulating in this refugee camp in the outer city is now food, but what about the base? You can't buy a piece of clothing and rice, can you? Moreover, the most important point is whether there are weapons for sale in the base, otherwise it would be too much of an eyesore to take a cart of guns and shells by yourself.
"Well, it seems, it shouldn't be out of circulation." Ye Fan touched her head, and she just forgot about it all of a sudden. Just now I saw a few thieves looking at their own car with green eyes, and they ran to somewhere quickly, obviously to ventilate and report the news, and for a while I thought of Wang Meng scolding his mother while beating people and scolding his mother.
"What are these bases circulating in the novels you read before?" Yang Qing endured the unpleasant smell and wanted to find a topic to divert his attention. Now it's hot, there are a lot of people, and it's an unplanned residence, so you can say that it smells like it, and when you mix it, it's not much better than the smell of zombies.
"Well, there are tickets issued by the government in the base, there are also points for doing tasks, and there are even crystal nuclei." Ye Fan recalled the novels he had read before, and it seemed that there were very few things that were directly exchanged for food, "Anyway, they are all recognized by the government, or what everyone acquiesces into, anyway, as long as others are willing, they can exchange anything." ”
"Crystal nucleus? What is that? Jewel? Fei Qian turned his head and looked at Ye Fan strangely, why hadn't she mentioned this thing before?
"Ah, it's the things in the minds of zombies, the novels describe all kinds of things, but they are basically crystals, and they contain a lot of energy, some novels write that the abilities of eating these people can be upgraded, and some are zombies that can be upgraded after eating, but no matter what it is, it's a good thing." Ye Fan observed the situation here all the way, the camp is really not small, but the sanitary condition is extremely poor, and she seems to have many people who are sick.
"Why didn't you say it before?"
"Huh? Do you want to talk about this? That's a novel, it's impossible to have a crystal in a person's brain in reality. Ye Fan looked at Fei Qian's gaze, and the more he talked about it, the quieter he became, and the more empty he became. Their current lives are not much different from the apocalyptic life depicted in the novel.
"Theoretically impossible, but that's before. According to you, it's the crystallization of energy, and it's self-generated, so what's the difference between that and what we do now? Our energy production is also much larger than before, and when there is enough energy, it is not impossible to produce an energy aggregate, which is what you call a crystal. Now, except for those who have not mutated, Abilities and Zombies are creatures that can absorb and produce large amounts of energy. Fei Qian quickly calculated such a possibility in his mind, although it was not necessarily a crystal, but it was still possible to produce energy aggregates, if this was the case, then the world would really have to change dramatically.
"Stop, after all that, you just want to say that in fact, zombies, and even our brains may have crystals, right?" Ye Fan was a little dizzy by Fei Qian, but she still grasped the point, that is, she really had the crystallization that everyone wanted in those novels in her mind.
"Yes." Fei Qian's affirmative answer.
"Uh, does it cause a headache?" Ye Fan is most concerned about this, although the possibility is very small, but it is not impossible, it is terrifying to think about it when something suddenly grows in his head.
"What Fei Qian said is spontaneous from the body, so it shouldn't affect health." Yang Qing passed by a tent, and there were several men waiting anxiously outside, but the sound of primitive human mating came from inside, which made people blush and heartbeat, and sighed in their hearts, no matter what era it is, this industry exists.
Of course, Ye Fan also heard a discordant voice coming from there, first felt embarrassed for a while, and when he understood what kind of place it was, he felt that he couldn't cry or laugh, so he could only answer Yang Qing loudly to hide his embarrassment, "Cancer also grows spontaneously!" It's not a damn thing! ”
"We're here." Fei Qian walked in the front, ignoring the discussion about whether the spontaneous growth of things that Ye Fan and Yang Qing were arguing about behind was harmful.
The gate of the Beihai base is close in front of you, the high city wall looks like a fortress, and there are fully armed soldiers standing on the city wall, and the city gate is also guarded, the same real guns.
"Do you think they look like a prison?" Ye Fan looked at this seaside base, less than a kilometer to the south is Beihai, but because it is located by the sea, there are no mountains, only a thick wall encloses it, plus the soldiers patrolling the wall, it really looks a bit like a prison.
The three of them walked to the city gate, and before they could get closer, they were pointed at the soldiers standing guard, "Don't go any further, raise your hands, or we will shoot." ”
Ye Fan looked at the distance, there were still more than ten meters, did they regard the people outside as terrorists? . Yang Qing was a little helpless, but he still obediently raised his hand, thinking that it was good that the stupid big man didn't come, otherwise he would have to blow up the pot at this moment.
"We don't have any ill intentions, we just want to ask why we are not allowed to enter the base." Fei Qian also raised his hand, although he couldn't see the expression on his face, Ye Fan was still sensitive to the slight coolness in his voice.
"You're new here." Another man who appeared to be a junior officer said, "Put down your gun." He pressed the heads of the two guns holding the guns, "We don't know the specific reason, the order we received is not to let people into the city, you can find a place to live outside, although you can't enter the city, but we will ensure the safety of the surroundings, once we find zombies, we will send people to clean up in time." ”
"We just came here to exchange something, I don't know where we can exchange it now." Fei Qian continued to ask.
"Every morning there will be a market here, and the people in the city will come out to exchange, and the people in the city will exchange points, and you will basically barter." The officer was not bad, and patiently explained to the three of them.
"I wonder if there are weapons for sale here? You know, running for your life all the way, losing some things, and never feeling solid without anything to defend yourself from. ”
The officer raised his eyebrows and looked at Fei Qian, obviously he didn't expect him to ask this question, which of the people who fled for their lives did not have a housekeeping weapon on their bodies, and seeing that the three people were dressed cleanly, and they did not look like they were yellow and thin, they thought they were three supernatural people.
"Yes, but the value is very high, and it is generally difficult to exchange." With that, the officer turned around and ignored the three men standing in the doorway.
"Let's go, I'll come back tomorrow morning." Fei Qian turned around and took the lead in walking back as he came, now all he heard was official news, and the morning market was the best time for news to circulate. If the person in charge of this base is really, then instead of waiting for this base to open, it is better to change places now, he doesn't want to make a meat shield when something hits.
