Chapter 17: A Chance Encounter on the Way

In the north of T City, in an orchard that looks barren from the outside, but is full of vitality inside, Chen Xiao and the others are squatting in the shadow of a huge meteorite at this time, chewing a big green apple in their mouths, and with the sound of "click" and "click", everyone's face also shows a happy smile......

These delicately colored apples were picked by Li Han under the pleading of the little fat man, using his agile skills to climb the tree and pick them, in addition to the fruits that everyone was tasting in their hands, several people's backpacks were also stuffed, exuding a verdant and crystal light from afar.

Looking at the color of these apples, it is natural that they grow so attractive after absorbing the energy crystals, the verdant skin looks shining in the sun, and the fruit body is one-third larger than ordinary green apples, and the meat is tender and juicy to eat, and everyone can feel a stream of nectar rushing to their throats every bite, and turn into a trace of energy warm current and go straight to all parts of the body, so that everyone who is feasting can't help but be addicted!

This apple is so full of energy that it's a surprise! If you eat a few more, it is estimated that it will be similar to absorbing the spar, and the little fat man thought to himself after throwing a fruit core in his hand into his mouth without wasting it.

The two Ma Jing sisters stopped after eating an apple each, while Chen Xiao and the other three made no secret of their greed, eating one after another.

It may be that the three of them have absorbed more energy in their bodies than the two sisters, so they can digest the energy in the fruit in a short time, and the Ma Jing sisters need some time to digest these energies.

After eating three or four apples, Chen Xiao and Li Han not only didn't feel abnormal in their bodies, but also vaguely increased some energy in their bodies, and couldn't help but be a little overjoyed, but they couldn't put it down in their stomachs, so they immediately gave up and continued to eat!

But the little fat man was addicted to eating, and continued to pick up one and stuff it into his mouth, which made everyone envious, it seems that this person has an advantage when he is fat!

Although everyone was envious of the little fat man at first, then the Ma Jing sisters still showed a trace of worry, after all, they had eaten this fruit several times, and they knew that these fruits were powerful.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, just as the little fat man had just finished eating the fifth apple, his body gradually shook, as if he was drunk, and he hurriedly held his forehead with his hand, looking like he had gold stars in his eyes......

The little fat man was also surprised in his heart, these two girls really didn't deceive people, this fruit really can't be eaten more, I ate five in a row, I'm afraid it's a little indigestion for a while......

Although Chen Xiao and others despised the little fat man's foodie appearance, they were still worried:

"Hey! Dead fatty, are you alright? Sit down, don't you fall? ”

"Fat brother, don't spit it out! Let you eat so much! ”

"Chubby! I told you that you can't eat more, but you don't listen, and we just ate one yesterday and I was a little dizzy! You're a little too ruthless! ”

"Little fat man, everyone else is full after two bites, you can eat two more bites when you are full! Hurry up and slow down, and say that you will help us with our luggage in a while! ”

……

After the little fat man's body shook in place for a while, the Venus in his eyes slowly disappeared, and as the energy in the apple was absorbed by the body, his sanity gradually returned to normal, but he didn't hear a word of what everyone said just now.

However, seeing that everyone was concerned, their hearts were also very satisfied, and at the same time, he waved his hand to everyone, and said with a smile: "Fat brother, I am so powerful, how can I be knocked down by a few apples, and I won't fall down if I eat seven or eight more, don't worry!" ”

After all of them "cut", they all showed disbelieving eyes, and then they walked away, looking unwilling to deal with him......

Chen Xiao was relieved when he saw that the little fat man was fine, not because he was afraid that he would be ill, but because he was afraid that he would delay his trip after he fainted on the ground, after all, he had been in this orchard for nearly half an hour, so he couldn't continue to delay......

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao greeted everyone and asked everyone to pack up their things and get ready to go......

After several people brought their belongings and put on several backpacks full of apples, the Ma Jing sisters each found a simple self-defense weapon.

Chen Xiao and the other three already had a steel bar each, so they instructed the Ma Jing sisters to find a wrist-thick fruit tree branch, and after removing all the branches and leaves, it became a simple wooden stick.

Seeing that everyone had finished cleaning up, Chen Xiao said "go", and then walked slowly towards the outside of the orchard first, and several other people also followed with a smile when they saw this......

Needless to say, the damaged roads and collapsed buildings gave everyone a headache, and they had to find other ways to keep detouring.

With the current traffic situation, even if they are given an intact car, I am afraid it will be difficult, and it is estimated that it is better to walk faster, because no matter how good the car is, if there is no clear road, it can only be reduced to a shelter from the wind and rain.

Looking at the current position of the sun, it should be almost noon, and after Chen Xiao and his entourage have arrived near the central square of the original urban area after some trek......

In the past, it was a city full of high-rise buildings, dense buildings, and surrounded by bustling commercial streets and many entertainment facilities, but now it is full of deep pit ruins, ruined walls, and rotten buildings......

Buildings over five storeys have largely disappeared, and the few remaining unfinished buildings are filled with black windows and mountains of debris next to piles of concrete blocks and broken concrete slabs...... The scene is even more desolate than the picture after the magnitude 10 earthquake!

As far as the eye can see, it looks like there are lifeless ghost towns everywhere...... Coupled with those gray meteorites, one can't help but wonder if you are really on Earth?

After a few people saw such a desolate scene, they were inevitably frightened and uncomfortable, at the beginning, this was not the paradise in the minds of several people, the rich people's gold cave, but now it has become like this......

Ordinary people like Chen Xiao and others, who either save money for a long time before they dare to come to shop, or carefully select a few relatively cheap things, will also hurt for a long time.

Who didn't dream that he would be prosperous in the future, play all the entertainment venues, buy him a car or two of expensive clothes and jewelry, and then watch the flattery and envy of those profiteers go away......

It's a pity that the reality is so cruel, the once most talked-about bustling city has become a hell on earth, and anyone will feel infinitely embarrassed for a while......

After a few people were stunned for a long time, they gradually came back to their senses, and the unspeakable loneliness and silent sadness emerged one after another, at this moment, everyone was a little pessimistic and hopeless about the future, as if the hope in their hearts also collapsed with the former high-rise buildings in an instant......

Although Chen Xiao was also sad, he still calmed down, even if there is nothing in this world, the road under his feet has to continue, he is currently the backbone of everyone, if even he falls into despair, the impact on everyone will be greater, and the next road may be even more difficult!

Chen Xiao took a deep breath, and after exhaling the boredom in his chest, he shouted to everyone with a serious face: "Everyone calm down first!" Listen to me! Since we can survive, there will definitely be more people who will survive, and when more people get together in the future, we will definitely be able to rebuild our homeland, and it is not impossible to restore the former glory of mankind......"

"Now our task is to find family and friends, gather more like-minded people, and then we can work together...... Didn't our human ancestors also come from scratch step by step? So we must be strong and go on! If you are afraid of death, then live, if you are not afraid of death, are you still afraid of living! After Chen Xiao woke up everyone with his words, he saw that everyone was thinking about him, so he hurriedly continued to enlighten while the iron was hot.

After listening to Chen Xiao's thunderous scolding, several people gradually came to their senses, and nodded thoughtfully, secretly scolding themselves for being cowardly, but also calming down......

It is true that the tragic scene can easily break the fragile hearts of human beings, but the mutual encouragement of companions will also arouse people's fighting spirit and strength! Because everyone is not afraid, what am I afraid of?

After Chen Xiao chatted with a few people for a while about the future prospects, a few people gradually returned to normalcy and began to talk and laugh......

Then, Chen Xiao led them on the road again......

Just when the five of them had just bypassed the square and walked towards the main road leading to the south of the city, a few wild animal "meow~~" sounds suddenly reached the ears of several people, which immediately made several people fall into a burst of tension...... Is this a cat's meow?

While Chen Xiao and his party were suspicious, they hurriedly turned their heads to look at the place where the sound came from, but there was an obstacle in the middle, and they couldn't see it clearly for a while, only hearing that the sound was coming from behind a pile of building ruins more than a hundred meters in front of them......

After several people looked at each other, they nodded at Chen Xiao knowingly!

Chen Xiao saw that everyone was full of curiosity, and they all wanted to go and check it out, and after muttering for a while, he nodded in agreement, and then he took the lead and walked towards the left front, and several people hurriedly followed vigilantly......

After bypassing the ruins formed by the collapse of the building, Chen Xiao and his party finally saw the source of the "meow" sound, and it was now only forty or fifty meters away from them.

I saw that behind the ruins of the building, there was a small piece of relatively flat open space, at this time there were three yellow and white fur, and quite large cats were surrounded by four figures in the middle, looking at the three cats with similar fur color and markings, it should be the brothers and sisters of a milk sibling, and Chen Xiao and others heard the "meow meow~" cry is made by these three big cats from time to time.

I saw that the bodies of these three big cats were walking back and forth in an irregular circle surrounded by four human figures, as if they were trying to break out of the encirclement.

After Chen Xiao and the others carefully observed for a while, they gradually saw the situation in the open space.

The three cats trapped in the middle of the clearing, the body is the size of a young tiger, not only the limbs are strong, the whole body is majestic, and the yellow and white markings on the body also appear to be organized under the sunlight, the head is the size of a cheetah, and the stripes on the forehead also faintly have the taste of the tiger's "king" character markings, if you haven't seen the wild dog mutated by the energy crystal, coupled with this weird "meow" sound, it will definitely make people mistakenly think that this is a little tiger in the jungle.

At this time, the three big cats are calling from time to time, their sharp claws flashing with their bodies, and while they continue to roar at the four people besieging them, they are also attacking with their sharp fangs, but looking at their continuous dodging back and forth in the field and the large and small wounds looming on their bodies, they are obviously very afraid of the four people besieging them......

While Chen Xiao and the others were observing the cats and figures in the field, the four people besieging the three big cats also noticed Chen Xiao and his party, the most conspicuous of the four was a middle-aged man with a strong body and dark thick eyebrows, this person was about thirty years old, dressed in black casual clothes, and held a three-foot-long sharp machete in his hand.

The thick-eyebrowed man glanced at Chen Xiao and the others, although he frowned slightly, but he didn't make a sound, just continued to stare at the big cats in the field with an expressionless face, looking afraid that they would escape.

Next to the thick-eyebrow man, there was a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old man with a Chinese character face and a medium height, dressed in a jeans shirt and pants, and holding a gray-brown steel pipe more than one meter long in his hand.

On the opposite side of the thick-eyebrow man and the face of the Chinese character, there stood a slightly lean little man and a tall, thin-looking man, both of whom looked to be twenty-five or sixteen years old, and both were dressed in black suits, each with a silver-white iron rod two meters long and the thickness of a mop handle.

Chen Xiao and the others saw the situation in the field clearly, and they didn't know what to do for a while, looking at the vicious expressions and strange looks of the four people, most of them were not good, and they were not in danger at this time, I don't know if they should help......

In the process of confrontation between the four people and the three big cats on the field, although the three mutated big cats were all injured, they were obviously unwilling to be restrained, and after exchanging expressions and screams, they each quickly rushed in the direction of the lean man at the same time, apparently trying to concentrate their forces to attack the weakest place in the defense.

Because among the four, the lean man appeared to be the weakest, and the smallest was outstanding.

At the same time that the three big cats suddenly pounced on the lean man, the lean man couldn't help but be taken aback, but he still gritted his teeth to block the front, and picked up the iron rod in his hand and swept towards the big cat, and shouted anxiously in his mouth: "Brother Long, hurry!" They want to run away from here. ”

As soon as the other three saw the big cats rushing in the same direction, they hurriedly followed, wanting to continue to outflank the big cats, Brother Long took the lead around behind the thin man, and slashed at a big cat who rushed out of the encirclement first, although the big cat who broke through the first had the intention to dodge, but it had just dodged a stick from the thin man, where did it have time to dodge again, and after being slashed in the back by the thick-eyebrow man, he fell to the ground suddenly, and then he 'moaned' in pain......

Although the other two also hurriedly ran over to outflank, how could the remaining two big cats rush forward regardless of it, so after trying their best to intercept it, they only blocked the big cat that ran at the end, and hurriedly put the stick together, so that the big cat had no time to escape, so he had to desperately deal with the three people in front of him.

The big cat running in the middle took advantage of the fact that the first big cat was blocked by the thick-eyed man, and hurriedly took advantage of the situation to escape, and actually rushed out of the encirclement of the four people without danger, and then rushed forward in a panic, seeing that the direction of its escape was faintly close to the direction where Chen Xiao and the others were......

At this time, the two big cats that were stopped gradually reached the point of being trapped and fighting, especially the first big cat that was cut by the thick-eyed man, who was lying on the ground at this time and kept twitching and 'moaning', and the thick-eyed man took the opportunity to go up and slash indiscriminately, which easily ended its life.

Although the last big cat surrounded by the other three was still struggling to support it, under the chaos of the three people, it finally stopped struggling and slowly lay down on the ground, and gradually lost its vitality......
