Chapter 52: A Call for Help on the Road
When night fell, Chen Xiao and his entourage finally found a relatively hidden temporary camp, and planned to wait for the next morning to continue on the road, and tonight was already the fifth night after Chen Xiao and the others left T City.
Now the place where everyone is located is only a dozen miles away from Y County, and from here you can already vaguely see the general outline of the county seat and the devastated buildings in the distance.
At this time, a group of people are sitting in front of a glittering bonfire, chatting and laughing, telling each other about the hardships and harvests of the day, in addition to more than a dozen pieces of grilled fish that are making a "snorting" sound, there is also a large pot of steaming fresh fish soup, from time to time wafting an enticing fragrance.
Previously, because the sky had turned dark, and Chen Xiao and the others happened to see this relatively complete building, they decided to camp here.
It used to be a roadside car wash, with three or four garages and a façade, but now all but one is slightly intact, and the rest of the rooms have collapsed into ruins.
Chen Xiao was leaning against the corner of the garage at this time, staring at a stainless steel lunch box in his hand with bright eyes, thinking about something from time to time, and the laughter of everyone outside the garage didn't seem to have any effect on him.
Chen Xiao's heart is now full of mixed feelings, not only the joy of successfully crossing the Dingfeng River, but also the worry about the next journey, as well as the hope that his relatives will survive, and more of the excitement and curiosity of these mysterious crystals in his hands......
Since the beginning of the disaster, I have begun to contact these crystals, from the initial fear gradually turned into the current dependence and desire, before today, I didn't particularly understand the properties of these crystals, but simply knew that they were a kind of energy similar to enhancers, which can make all kinds of creatures on the earth stronger, and the more they absorb, the better, so they will spare no effort to try to find more on the road.
It wasn't until today that Zhang Jing brought back these three spars from underwater, that he had a new understanding of this energy body, combined with his previous one-sided understanding of them, he had faintly understood some doubts in his heart, of course, it is unrealistic to fully understand the characteristics and structure of these spars now, firstly, there is no advanced equipment, and secondly, there is a lack of some scientific researchers......
Chen Xiao now vaguely felt that because these crystals were from outer space, they carried a super strong unknown magnetic field, which also explained why everyone would fall into a coma when they first absorbed the crystals, but they would not fall asleep when absorbing the energy crystal nuclei in other people's bodies.
Obviously, after the hedron enters the body of a human or animal, its unique magnetic field will cause the carrier to fall into a brief coma, and unique feelings will appear in consciousness.
It is precisely because others have exhausted the magnetic field carried by the spar, leaving only pure energy, so if it is absorbed twice, it will no longer be affected by the magnetic field, and people continue to absorb the spar, and the body naturally produces certain antibodies to the magnetic field of the spar, so the time required for everyone to absorb the spar is slowly compressed.
Although Chen Xiao didn't know if these spars were related to other earth materials, but now that they found out that the spars were related to water, they also gave them some advantages, and with this, they could wait for the opportunity to find a lot of spars while others didn't know this secret in the future.
Forget it, let's slowly study these magical energy bodies in the future! I'm lucky enough to know so much now! I believe that more people are still in the initial stage of understanding them!
"Brother Xiao, it's time to eat, and you're still studying? Let's watch it after eating! You just cuddle them up to sleep at night, and we don't have a problem! Chen Xiao finished his contemplation and was about to stand up, but the little fat man's voice came first, and he had a mocking tone.
Chen Xiao walked slowly in front of everyone, glanced at everyone, and said with a smile: "If everyone is hungry, eat first!" You don't have to wait for me, this place is quite spacious today, but it provides us with a good place to train! Hehe! Hey, Zhang Jing! These three spars are what you worked so hard to catch! The right to dispose of it is yours! ”
After Chen Xiao greeted everyone, his tone changed, his eyes also looked at Zhang Jing, and handed over the lunch box in his hand.
"Brother Xiao, this is not a big deal! It's not hard! Why don't you stay and research! After Zhang Jing's face turned red, he hurriedly excused himself.
"Hey, aren't there just three hedrons? What you won't have in the future is that you can take it, I've finished researching it! In addition, I was mainly afraid that others would know this secret if I stayed with us, so I better deal with it quickly! After Chen Xiao reluctantly persuaded a few words, his tone turned to a serious admonition.
After Zhang Jing listened to Chen Xiao's warning, he suddenly came to his senses, nodded hurriedly and did not dare to continue to refuse, and quickly took the lunch box in his hand, and at the same time secretly said in his heart: These three spars were salvaged by his two hairy children together, and they will be divided equally with them in a while......
"Okay, everyone's worked hard all day, hurry up and replenish some nutrition, and you have to train in a while! Today's vigil is arranged like this...... "Chen Xiao didn't care about how Zhang Jing would distribute the few spars, but arranged matters for everyone for a while, and then issued an order to the little fat man.
"Chubby, give you a task, you don't have to train tonight, you study the two cars in front of the garage and see if you can dismantle some useful things!" By the way, pay attention to whether there are any objects that can be closed to hold water. Chen Xiao pointed to the two cars in front of the garage that were not flattened, and said in a solemn tone.
"Hehe, this is a trouble, how embarrassing! Am I not training alone? Brother Xiao, are you really starting to feel sorry for me? Hey! I'll get the job done, and those two cars will definitely give you a whole mess! After the little fat man was excited, he replied thoughtfully, and looked grateful, it seemed that he was really frightened by Chen Xiao's training mode, and felt that work had become a kind of enjoyment.
Chen Xiao listened to the little fat man's answer, shook his head with a wry smile at everyone, and looked helpless that there was nothing he could do with the little fat man, and finally sat down in front of the bonfire by himself, beckoning everyone to start eating......
After dinner, Chen Xiao organized everyone to start a two-hour intensive training as usual, while the little fat man rushed to the two cars with great interest, ready to disassemble some useful parts......
The night passed in a flash, during this period, Chen Xiao and the others did not encounter sudden changes, and the personnel on duty in shifts also cooked all the remaining fish and meat for supplies on the road, and in addition, the little fat man also removed a lot of useful tools from the two cars.
The little fat man not only got some gasoline and clothes from the car, but also found a lot of repair tools and a few packs of cigarettes from the car, these packs of cigarettes can really make the little fat man excited for a while, he is usually a loyal smoker, because of the disaster, he has not touched a complete cigarette for five or six days, and now several packs of cigarettes are suddenly in hand, how can he not be overjoyed?
The little fat man finally unloaded a fuel tank on the car, saying that it would be used to install spars for everyone in the future, but such a large fuel tank made everyone look a little weird, is it just on his back? Wouldn't it be too conspicuous?
After packing up the luggage and belongings, everyone once again embarked on the trip, heading towards the county seat of Y County in the distance, and the bright morning sun in the early morning made everyone's tired mood gradually become better, as if the haze brought by the distress in the past two days has been swept away.
More than an hour later, the county seat of Y County, which was full of meteorites and deep pits, finally appeared in front of a group of ten people, looking at the devastated and ruined county town in front of them, everyone couldn't help but sigh, most of the next journey was like the plain area of Y County, it is conceivable that the degree of damage in those places must be more than that of Y County in front of them, and in the disaster a few days ago, they must have borne the brunt of the meteorite rain and earthquake.
Just when everyone had just entered the ruins of the county town and were about to quickly pass through this place that was not worth nostalgia at all, a shouting sound in the distance instantly disturbed everyone's inner peace, making everyone feel nervous.
"Stop, stinky, don't hurry up and catch it, we will catch it, but a punishment is indispensable!"
"Stop! Sister, as long as you obediently go back and admit your mistakes, maybe Xue Ye will spare you as soon as his heart softens! ”
……
Listening to the shouts from far and near, everyone knew that these people were running towards the place where they and the others were, so they stopped and looked into the distance with alert faces.
As the sound of huing and harmony approached, a delicate figure took the lead in emerging from behind a broken wall thirty or forty meters away, and quickly ran towards Chen Xiao and the others, it seemed that they should have discovered the existence of Chen Xiao and the others.
"Help! Brothers and sisters, I was hunted down, and for the sake of young people, please help each other! ”
It was this delicate figure that had just appeared, this person was a young woman of about twenty years old, her voice was slightly sharp, wearing light blue jeans and a black half-sleeved T-shirt, although she was petite, but she looked quite good, coupled with her short burgundy hair, giving people a feeling of non-mainstream, at this time the woman was panting and running towards everyone as hard as she could, looking exhausted.
Chen Xiao and the others couldn't help frowning when they heard the young woman's call for help, and the others instinctively looked at Chen Xiao with a look of surprise.
Chen Xiao is also frowning, looking like a big headache, everyone and this woman have never known each other, and they don't know whether this person is good or evil, if they rush to help, I am afraid that they will fall into her plan to lead the water, and then the gains will outweigh the losses, of course, if this woman is really bullied by the wicked, it seems too indifferent and ruthless to sit idly by, and it is not in line with the morality in his heart.
Seeing that this woman was getting closer and closer to himself and the others, and the four figures chasing behind him also appeared one by one, Chen Xiao couldn't help but feel a little difficult, every time he encountered an unexpected situation, everyone gave the decision to himself, he was really helpless, he blamed himself for always playing the role of a leader, and he could only wait and see how the current situation changed, and then make a decision after understanding the situation of both parties.
Chen Xiao, who wanted to understand the power, handed everyone a slightly calm look, and did not express any opinion for the time being, but observed the twenty-year-old woman running in front of him and the four men chasing behind him with a casual face.
Most of the four men chasing after him were young men in their twenties and thirties, all dressed in casual clothes and trousers, but the colors were different from black and yellow, and all four were slightly thin people, except for one of the men in yellow T-shirts, who was very tall, and the other three men in black T-shirts were all of medium height.
At this time, all four of them were carrying sticks in their hands, and their mouths were shouting at the young woman in front of them from time to time, and they would be able to catch up with the woman in front of them from a distance of more than ten meters.
"Big brothers and sisters, please save my little sister, my little sister is now lonely and helpless, and she is coveted by gangsters, it is really a hard life! Please, everyone......" When the young woman ran five or six meters in front of Chen Xiao and the others, she gradually stopped, and pleaded pitifully while gasping.
Hearing the woman's plea, the four men behind the woman also stopped chasing, and at this time the distance from the woman was only seven or eight meters, each with an ugly look, and after looking at Chen Xiao and the other ten people in front of the woman, they couldn't help but exchange their eyes in place.
"Friends, don't listen to this little girl's nonsense, we didn't bully her at all, we just wanted to bring her back and give our commander an explanation! If she hadn't stolen our Commander Xue's treasure, would we be guilty of chasing her like this? Please don't meddle with anything! The tall man among the four first scolded the woman angrily, and then took a few steps forward to explain to Chen Xiao and the others.
"Big brothers and sisters, don't listen to them, they are outnumbered, and they see that I am a weak girl, so they want to 'humiliate' me, if I am caught by them, there will definitely be no good end! Please save me, I am willing to repay you by being a cow and a horse in the future! The woman didn't wait for Chen Xiao to speak, and then she cried in a miserable tone, looking extremely miserable, seeing that Sister Ma Jing and the others couldn't help but feel compassion, and the eyes that looked at this woman were filled with a trace of pity.
"This ...... Where the hell did you come from? What is the specific situation of this matter, it is better to explain it clearly! We can't just be indiscriminate against you! Who knows if what you say is true or false? After Chen Xiao hesitated for a moment, he immediately asked without moving, with a cold look.
