Chapter 70: Recuperate, Return, and Welcome the Tide of Corpses
"I said little madman, can you help me keep an eye on the road ahead, maybe the zombie will appear around the next corner."
"Old madman, what are you talking about, I'm the Minister of Propaganda and the Pope, and my position is higher than yours."
"Hey, you kid owes a beating!"
"Okay, okay, don't see you in general, no one, no zombies, no people, no zombies."
Kansai boredom shook the searchlights from side to side, illuminating the dark night, from the Twin Towers to Anding County, more than 2,000 kilometers of desert Gobi, all the way is a big straight road, and on this road, except for three or four deserted pre-apocalyptic settlements, there is nothing.
Xiao Dai's mental condition is very good now, the westward movement of the corpse tide means that the ice storm is coming, the zombies obviously have no wisdom, but they can detect the attack of the ice storm in advance, which has always made Xiao Dai very difficult to figure out in her previous life, but now, she understands, the pockmarks that keep appearing on the epidermis may be an early warning mechanism, the further you go, the more pockmarks, fortunately it is only on the back area, otherwise she has become a numb face now.
"I'll drive it!"
Morin woke up from a sleep, and to be honest, sleeping in the crowded carriage, mixed with all kinds of bad smells, was really uncomfortable, but the situation was like this, and no one could complain.
"No, I'm in good spirits right now, and I can hold on for a long time."
"Oh, okay then, though, is there any smoke?"
"Smoke on the top, there are children here."
"I know, I know."
Mo Lin asked for a pack of Marlboro (due to the storage of the Cultural Protection Association, he can use Western supplies to fool people), and Xiao Dai has never been stingy with her own people, and naturally she will not use copycat cigarettes to fool them.
Maureen climbed to the top, watched Kansai squint and doze off with a searchlight, patted him and said:
"Changing of the Guard."
"Oh, yes, ah, I'm sleepy!"
Kansai walked to the entrance of the passage and looked at the carriage below that looked like canned sardines, and hurriedly walked back and said:
"I'll make do with it here for a while, it's almost time to make cans down there."
"Hey, don't you smoke?"
"Here's one."
The three men lit their cigarettes, and Kansai lay down in the corner of the platform, smoking and chattering:
"I, I used to be a photographer, and my ideal was to go all over the country, and then go to the world's great rivers and mountains, but I didn't expect to take a photo of a girl in the studio, and the girl mutated when I patted it, so fuck up, I was going to have a meal with her at night, and do a big health care or something."
"Hey, you can finally speak a normal human language, why don't you put yourself on the shelf of the Pope and Minister of Propaganda?"
"What kind of relationship do we have, we still use this, Lao Wang, you don't talk about your past, it's rare to have time to make friends, and it is also to promote team harmony."
"My past, heh, you finish your story first."
"It's boring, okay, okay, I continued, that girl has mutated, she wants to gnaw me, what can I do, escape, it's a pity that my set of hundreds of thousands of equipment, it's all wasted......"
Kansai didn't say anything as he spoke, he actually fell asleep with a cigarette in his mouth, Morin took the cigarette from the corner of his mouth, he couldn't waste it, he took two cigarettes in his mouth and smoked, coughed and said:
"My story is simpler than his, not so glamorous, do you want to hear it?"
"Just to relieve the fatigue, you say."
Fifteen minutes later, Zhao Yong climbed up, just heard Mo Lin telling a story, so he sat aside and listened patiently, Mo Lin finally finished speaking, Zhao Yong opened the conversation box again, an hour and a half later, Chu Nan climbed up, originally to change shifts, but also attracted by Zhao Yong's not ordinary story, and when Zhao Yong finished speaking, he opened the conversation box again.
"I said, you're all about to make a hundred pulpits, listen to music?"
"Okay, let's get some excitement."
Cersei hurriedly handed over a CD, and Dai put it in, and a small apple rang immediately.
"Your Majesty, don't you have more exciting music?"
"Not yet."
According to that map, from the Twin Towers City to the junction of the Great Basin and the Northwest Plateau, --- Anding County, the straight and straight Gobi Avenue, a total of more than 2,100 kilometers, this road with the speed of 80 yards to the top of the steel-backed beast, it will take 30 hours without resting halfway, not to mention that Xiao Dai also has to transform the steel-backed beast to adapt to the endless corpse tide that is likely to be encountered.
First of all, the intake pipe of the engine must be changed, although there is a collision angle in front of the shield, but if you want to face a steady stream of corpses, you must prevent the clogging of the intake pipe by minced meat, internal organs, blood, etc., once the intake pipe is blocked, the steelback beast will lie on its stomach; The second is the chassis, although the steel-backed animal skin is thick, but no one can say whether the chassis can be stable on the stacked corpses, and finally the door, which is also the weakest part of the vehicle and must be reinforced.
She chose a water station in the Gobi Desert, with a maintenance workshop under the small building on the second floor, although there was nothing inside for a long time, but it was more feasible to renovate it than outside.
"I need welding guns, welders, sledgehammers, hammers, cutters, generators, raw materials, and so on and so forth."
The team is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, but I didn't expect Mo Lin to be an all-rounder, and Zhao Yong on the side also said that he had done welding and sheet metal, but he solved the problem of personnel.
The two of them looked at Xiao Dai, Xiao Dai pretended to take out the satellite phone and began to call the headquarters, and Ma Lulu on the side saw that she was going to start a big battle, and hurriedly shouted:
"Director-General, do you have to call headquarters for this thing? This is also an exaggeration! ”
"What headquarters? What are you talking about? ”
"I don't agree either, Director-General, you ask the headquarters for supplies so often, what if the headquarters doesn't come to supply when you really need it?"
“…… Uh, what the hell are you guys talking about? ”
The people who joined later felt confused, airdrops, headquarters, and the like were too evil.
In the end, Xiao Dai couldn't survive the soft grinding and hard bubbles of the old players, so she could only agree to their construction, and the air intake pipe was very easy to solve, just frame a hose with iron wire to pass the air pipe to the roof of the car.
Wang Banshan and Mo Lin checked the chassis and doors, thinking that there was no need to install anything, such a thick steel plate, the zombies could pull apart before there were ghosts, okay, okay, Xiao Dai chose to compromise, in fact, she was only a little worried about the mutated zombies.
However, this delay turned out to be a good thing, and when they were opening the front cover to extend the intake pipe, Sanji came back in a Dongfeng car.
"Tashi Delek!"
Xiao Dai showed off a little, and a Tibetan girl followed Sanji out of the car, and Sanji led her over with red eyes, came to Xiao Dai, and whispered:
"It's all over, our village is all over."
"No, at least you saved one of your clansmen."
"Well, her name is Rajan, and the evil ghost took her tongue, but under the protection of the Buddha, I was able to find her."
It turned out to be a mute, Xiao Dai reached out and took Lazhen's little hand, Lazhen glanced at Sanji very shyly, Sanji said to her:
"It's okay, Rajan, they're all good people."
Sanchi's return made the atmosphere in the team much better, and Sanchi was also very interesting, loading all the things that could be dismantled and taken in the village onto the truck, which were all barley seeds hidden in the cellar.
However, judging from the fact that there is no mold, their people are really good at preserving seeds. Everyone worked together to carry bags of barley seeds to the oil tank of the steel-backed beast and strangled them with ropes, which could be used as food seeds in the future or as sandbags, killing two birds with one stone.
After packing these up, the sky was already dark, and seeing that everyone was a little tired, Xiao Dai decided to let everyone rest for half a day and set off at noon to deal with the tide of corpses that were heading towards the west.
