Chapter 35: Encounter with the Convoy
In the evening, Li Mo sat in the driver's seat of Dongfeng Mengshi, holding a loaf of bread in his hand and nibbling on it.
It's been three days since I left the worm nest, and if I have two more days of travel, I should be able to rush to the large gathering place east of W City, the Peishan Gathering Place.
According to his established plan, he planned to rest after arriving at Peishan, and then enter W City to find that coordinate point.
However, at this time, in the back seat of the warrior, there was another person sitting. It's the half-dead girl in the worm's nest.
This girl's name is Ma Xiaolan, but I don't know why Li Mo, who originally wanted to kill her, changed her mind and rescued her.
It's just that because I was a culture of the mother's eggs, the injuries on my body were naturally not light. Even her face was originally laid with two larvae. As a result, there are now wounds the size of fingernails on the right cheekbone and on the left cheek.
The wound was a bit like a hole in the flesh, revealing bright red flesh. And on this Ma Xiaolan's body, there are dozens of such wounds.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that she was an evolutionary, it would be impossible to survive now.
But even so, it is not easy to recover from this injury. Although the Evolutionary has a strong immune system, because the larvae take in a large amount of nutrients in her body, it will naturally reduce her immunity a lot.
"Take the medicine." Li Mo stuffed the last bite of bread into his mouth, then reached out and picked up a bottle on the dashboard, turned around and handed it to Ma Xiaolan.
The bottle contained an ointment that he had mashed with some plants in the forest.
Although the production is rough, the effect is not as good as that of anti-inflammatory drugs. But it's better than nothing.
And judging from the current condition of Ma Xiaolan, the injury is recovering well. There were no cases of infection.
It's just that when Ma Xiaolan heard the medicine, her thin and dull yellow face. But it's slightly red.
When she first left the worm nest, because her body was extremely weak, it was Li Mo who was always helping her with medicine.
However, after two days of recovery, this kind of thing naturally no longer needs the help of others.
Ma Xiaolan took the medicine bottle, and Li Mo also turned around, but he didn't mean to avoid it, just leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
She was also generous, first putting the medicine bottle aside. Then he raised his hand and began to undress.
Anyway, these days, my body is not unseen by others, and I have long lost my scruples.
And the clothes she was wearing now were found by Li Mo from the worm's nest, but they were all boiled in boiling water, and they were quite clean.
However, after taking off her clothes, Ma Xiaolan's naked body was really miserable. It's full of those fleshy wounds, if you have a dense phobia. I guess I didn't dare to look at it directly.
She picked up the ointment and began to apply it to the wound, and it could be seen from the expression on her face that the ointment was very irritating to the wound, and it must have been very painful.
But this girl is strong. Gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.
However, she also knew very well that she could be cured. It will inevitably be a scar in the future. And this result, for a girl. Definitely a blow.
But for Ma Xiaolan, surviving is actually a miracle.
So to Li Mo. She was undoubtedly grateful.
And to this day, the scene when he was rescued by Li Mo will always surround his heart.
I remember that the guy was holding a gun and saying that he wanted to help himself get free. But who knew that when he said in despair, "I really seem to be alive!" But he changed his mind.
In fact, Ma Xiaolan was completely desperate at that time, and in that situation, she asked herself if she stood in Li Mo's point of view, she would definitely not help.
But what she didn't expect was that Li Mo saved herself just because of her own words.
As for why Li Mo made this change, it was actually very simple, because he saw Ma Xiaolan's strong desire to survive**. Although he is cold-blooded, he has a lot of respect for the strong-willed end times.
Looking at the front again, after about ten minutes, Ma Xiaolan got dressed again after taking the medicine.
"Brother Li, I've got it done." She patted Li Mo in front of her, with a faint chuckle on her face. It can be vaguely seen that before becoming a cultivated body, it should be very outstanding.
However, she didn't say anything grateful, because through getting along these days, she had learned that Li Mo was a person who liked to be quiet. If it weren't necessary, I wouldn't have said a word to myself at all.
As for his own worthless gratitude, of course, people will not be rare.
Li Mo turned his head to look at her, but he didn't mean to treat her as a sick number at all, so he said: "Well, then you can sleep for a while, I will watch the first half of the night today, and I will change you in the second half of the night." ”
"Okay, then I'll go to sleep first." Ma Xiaolan happily answered and lay down
Although her body was still very weak, she did not have the slightest resentment towards Li Mo's unkind performance. As long as she can, she is willing to do it.
She was just lying on the seat, and within a few minutes of closing her eyes, she suddenly heard a burst of gunshots, which suddenly came, and she sat up in shock.
Li Mo in front also frowned, didn't speak, opened the car door and jumped in.
Listening to the gunfire getting closer and closer, he looked in the direction, and after a while, he saw several cars driving in the forest in the distance.
The people in the car were obviously shooting something with their firearms, and in the afterglow of the setting sun, the bullets were very gorgeous.
And when he heard the roars mixed with the gunshots, Li Mo also knew at once that what those cars were entangled in, they were insect corpses.
Ma Xiaolan also poked her head out of the window, and she actually heard the roar of the insect corpse, and said, "Brother Li, it seems to be a worm corpse, should we transfer?" ”
Li Mo waved his hand unhurriedly: "Let's take a look." ”
Just from the voice, he could hear that the number of insect corpses was not large, that is, dozens of them. A small corpse group of this size can be solved by him alone.
However, Li Mo didn't mean to make a move, and wanted to observe the situation of the survivors who were chased by the insect corpses.
And the other party obviously also saw Li Mo, because of the location of the warrior. Happens to be a high ground. With such a big warrior car, it is difficult not to be seen.
Then I saw the cars. Drive straight this way. There are three cars in total, one in front and two in the back. And in the middle is a bus, and you don't have to think about it to know that it must be stuffed with people.
Li Mo couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he saw it, the other party rushed over like this, it was clear that he wanted to involve himself too, and he probably hoped that he could help them attract some insect corpses.
It's just that the other party's luck seems to be very bad, when the three cars are two or three hundred meters away from the high ground where Li Mo is located, the car running in front is probably not able to see the road conditions clearly. Rolling into a big rock or something, the front of the car jerked, and the direction was instantly deviated, and it crashed directly into a tree.
As soon as this car had an accident, the two cars behind it also braked sharply and had to stop.
Then Li Mo saw more than 20 men and women jumping out of the three cars. Some of them were holding guns and were constantly shooting in the direction of the back of the car.
However, these people are clearly divided into two groups, one of which is more numerous. They all got off the bus.
The other group of people got off from two small cars, six in all, all of them adult males.
And the two are compared. On the contrary, the six men were more combative, their shooting was very purposeful, and their movements were more standard. Cooperate with each other, no panic.
Li Mo was still standing beside the warrior car. Watch the battle below.
In his opinion, he wants to deal with insect corpses with excellent mobility. The role of firearms in general will be greatly weakened.
But fortunately, the number of insect corpses is not large, and the six-person group is all good at guns. For a while, it can still be resisted.
But the insect corpse is not like a zombie, it only knows how to rush forward with bullets. There are only a dozen or so of them, and they have already played a detour under the cover of trees.
Moreover, these insect corpses also know how to bully the weak and fear the hard, and they seem to know that the firepower of the six-person group is fierce and the marksmanship is accurate. He went around to the flanks of the people in the bus, and gradually approached, preparing to launch a sneak attack.
Li Mo, who occupied a high point and observed the subtleties, naturally saw this situation.
At this point, if he still doesn't make a move, just watching the excitement, it will be a bit too much.
So Li Mo raised his 95, "Da Da Da!" "Shooting one after another, the heads of the insect corpses that tried to sneak up exploded in an instant.
Although the parasitic corpse worm controls the zombies, the survival of the zombies still lies in the brain and the only remaining neural connection, so the headshot is naturally the best way to kill the zombies.
However, because between corpse worms and zombies, there is not a symbiotic relationship between worms and parasites. Therefore, after the zombie hangs up, the corpse worm will not die.
However, the corpse worm itself is not very harmful, so once you kill the parasitic zombie, you can simply dig out the throat to remove the corpse worm to obtain worm crystals.
Li Mo's shot can be said to be just right, and he relieved the siege of the gang on the bus at once.
And those survivors were also frightened when they suddenly found a group of insect corpses falling on the flanks.
They weren't all straw bales, and they soon discovered the perpetrators of the help. It's just that now is really not the time to say thanks, so I go into battle again.
And as the loss of insect corpses grew, they realized that they had encountered hard bones that were difficult to gnaw, and the parasitic corpse insects also stopped attacking and chose to retreat under the instinctive urging.
But even so, those survivors still did not dare to relax, and carefully observed for a long time before announcing that the crisis was resolved.
Then I saw twenty or thirty people coming down from the bus. It can be seen that these people do not have any combat ability. And looking at their behavior, it is clear that they want to camp on the spot.
Looking at the combat team members just now, the bald captain in the six-person group, and a burly male leader on the side of the bus, walked towards the high ground where Li Mo was.
No, these two didn't bring guns, probably to show Li Mo that they had no malicious intent.
"This brother, can we talk?" The first to speak was the one on the other side of the bus, looking at his twenty-seven or eighteen, with a kind face.
The bald head who was following him didn't speak, but the pair of leopard eyes were swirling on Li Mo's body.
"Come and talk about it." Li Mo agreed, and the two approached.
"First of all, I want to thank my brother for helping me just now." The strong man first thanked him, and then introduced himself: "My name is Chen Liang, and this is Snake Four." ”
"Li Mo." Li Mo also reported his name, ignoring the other party's thanks.
Chen Liang didn't care about his coldness, and said with a smile: "Brother Li is also going to the Peishan gathering place?" ”
As soon as he heard this, Li Mo knew that he wanted to help on the road. He nodded.
Then, the three of them stood next to the car and had a brief conversation.
It turned out that Chen Liang and Snake Four used to be survivors of a small gathering place. It was only because of the appearance of insect corpses that the gathering place of only a few hundred people was besieged by a large number of insect corpses and was breached.
Those who escaped decided to go to the Peishan gathering place.
However, for the six snakes, it was obviously a small group, but neither of them mentioned it. As for Li Mo, he didn't ask.
And Chen Liang really put forward the hope that Li Mo could help them on the road, but Li Mo did not refuse and agreed.
Anyway, it's not two days away from the Peishan gathering place, and if you follow such a convoy, you can be more relaxed.
Besides, with his current strength, even if he doesn't know the details of the other party, there is basically no problem in wanting to protect himself.
So after agreeing, Li Mo drove his warriors down the high ground and joined the other party's camp.
And for him, the new stranger, the members of the team, were obviously curious. Just looked at his unapproachable face, except for Chen Liang, no one dared to talk to him.
However, to Li Mo's surprise, he had just found a place to park the car, and a little girl actually came to bring him food and water.
The little girl looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old, with a baby face, big eyes and a small nose, and she was quite cute.
But Li Mo has always been strict about eating and drinking, so he simply rejected her kindness.
And in the face of his cold face, this little girl who ran errands was obviously very angry. She is very smart, she should have seen Li Mo's vigilance. gave Li Mo a slap in the eye, and muttered "I don't know the hearts of good people", and went back angrily.
But just now, when this little girl came to give Li Mo food, the bald snake who was eating and drinking with the five brothers showed a hint of gloom in his eyes.
"Fourth brother, do you want our brother to find a chance to try that kid." One of his subordinates said in a low voice.
Several of them all knew that the fourth brother had long been in love with a baby face, so naturally he would not allow others to get involved.
But when Snake Si heard this, he sneered: "Don't mess around, this person is not easy to mess with, you remember, don't provoke him." ”
Several subordinates all looked at each other when they listened, you must know that since the end of the world, in their eyes, the fourth brother in front of them has always been synonymous with power. (To be continued......)
