Chapter 40: Encampment
The days in winter are particularly short, and by six o'clock the sky is completely dark. There is no need to travel overnight, and after a simple dinner, the team sets up camp here.
Inside the minibus.
The air conditioner has been turned on, and the entire interior space is warm and full of people, sitting around and discussing.
"Leizi, are you reliable for what you said?" He Bin was not particularly relieved about the five first-class people who exploded from unknown origins, and it was difficult to guarantee that what they said was not the truth, but he couldn't think of any need to lie to himself and others.
Shen Lei poured a large mouthful of rice wine into his mouth, and the sweet taste of wine flowed down his throat to his stomach, and his stomach immediately felt warm, and he wiped the wine stains on his mouth and said with a smile: "Even if there are any bad intentions, how much impact do you think they will have on us?" Except for me, even if you are enough for them to drink a pot, five people against twenty or so people, what else is worth deceiving, looking for death. ”
"That's right!" The brute bull interjected coldly, startling the others.
Only Shen Lei remained calm and scolded with a smile: "You kid really don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, wait for time to beat you up, see if you can still be so angry!" ”
"Don't, don't! Brothers and sisters, I was wrong. ”
The brute bull pretended to beg for mercy, and his funny appearance made everyone laugh, if there was no gag for him, I am afraid that the atmosphere along the way would not be too good.
"Okay, let's rest, I don't have to travel overnight today. It's still the old rule to be on duty, but now that we have a lot of people, we can change it to one person per hour. I'll come first, and I'll call you when the time comes, and go to sleep." Shen Lei arranged everyone's work, the boys naturally took on the duty, and the girls only needed to lie down in the warm quilt to sleep.
Although it is rare to see walking corpses along the way, it does not mean that there is no danger.
In fact, the time when the virus really broke out was at one or two o'clock in the morning, which was when the vast majority of human beings on the entire continent fell into a coma, and they were infected and became walking corpses in their sleep, so most of the walking corpses were concentrated in cities, villages and other places where humans gathered, and there were few traces of walking corpses in the suburbs and wilderness.
But in the wild, it's not the walking corpses that are even more terrifying, it's a different kind of creature.
Infected mutant animals!
Due to their size and other reasons, many mutant animals are much more dangerous than ordinary walking corpses infected with human mutations, and some places in the memories of previous lives have even been completely occupied by mutated animals.
Mutated plants, mutated animals, and infected walking corpses occupy most of the world's living land, and the living space of humans is compressed to a pitifully narrow part.
Usually, going to bed at this time is quite early for anyone, but without a mobile phone, a computer, or any entertainment tools, sleeping is undoubtedly a good way to pass the time.
In order to save gasoline consumption, the wolf turned off the air conditioner and turned off the minibus before going to bed.
In the dark, Shen Lei hugged Mo Xiaoqin, nephrite was warm and fragrant, and the two of them were wrapped in a clean quilt that still exuded the smell of sunshine, including others, all of which were collected from Guanma Town. However, he did not feel sleepy, in fact, as his brain became more and more conscious, he had gradually gotten rid of long sleeps, and only needed a few hours of rest a day. Even if he is not a psionic, he does not have the talent to become a psionic, but his spiritual strength has exceeded that of a first-level psionic, which is a very strange phenomenon, and Shen Lei doesn't quite understand the reason, it is all attributed to the head of the supermarket space, after all, every time he enters and exits the supermarket space through consciousness.
It wasn't until twelve o'clock in the evening that Shen Lei fell asleep and changed to a brute bull to be on duty.
There was no word for the night, and there was no danger approaching.
At about six o'clock in the morning, when these people, who had slept for eleven or twelve hours, woke up one after another, they lifted the quilt and suddenly felt a chill, shrunk their necks, and clutched their clothes very tightly.
Shen Lei was the first to open the car door, and after jumping out of the car, he took a deep breath, and a breath of fresh and cold air instantly stimulated the nerve cells of the entire brain, and he was extremely awake.
"That, big brother! Big brother! There's a signal, there's a signal! The sound of the exploding head came from behind abruptly.
This kid got up earlier than himself!
As soon as Shen Lei turned around, he saw the explosion head standing on the roof of the sedan inexplicably, and before he had time to greet him, he was attracted by a small and delicate radio held high in his right hand, the shell of the radio was brushed with a layer of dazzling bronze, both the shape and the color were extremely exquisite, and a slender metal rod was erected on it, and the noisy current sound came out of the speaker intermittently.
"What the hell is this? It's so squeaky and noisy! The bull got out of the car and said impatiently.
"What the hell? Brother Manniu, I'm afraid you're out of sight, that thing is quite expensive! For those who are really engaged in collecting, it is estimated that the cheapest one is several thousand, and it may not be possible to buy it. Mei Xiaofei, who was walking behind, had a bright eye, and her serious expression made the old man blush, turned around and stopped talking.
"Hey, I didn't expect you to understand this, but you also didn't see it clearly, all the parts in it were replaced by me, so it's not worth a few dollars." Seeing Mei Xiaofei's surprised expression, the exploding head briefly explained, turned the back and said: "I fell into a big pit in the back, and it is estimated that the parts inside were also affected, so the signal is not very good." ”
"That's a shame." Mei Xiaofei looked at the radio in disappointment, and her eyes lost the joy just now. She also likes to play with these objects, and the history and years on them give the already beautiful objects a unique charm. But an incomplete thing is like a person who has lost his soul, and he can never get that feeling back.
"It's a pity, at least it can point us in the right direction." Shen Lei pricked up his ears and carefully distinguished the chaotic noise.
But ten minutes later, it was still so loud that even the exploding head wanted to throw this thing.
Just as everyone was about to give up their hopes for this antique radio, a faint male voice suddenly came from the speaker.
"Uh... Whew... Fellow citizens, please note... Jinling City Base... Already... Built...... Please come quickly... To! ”
After a few seconds, the sound stopped abruptly, and a puff of white smoke suddenly rose from the entire radio.
After a while, the white smoke became bigger and bigger, and there was even a smell of burning, obviously I didn't know what the explosion head was messing with and installing in it, causing a short circuit in the battery, and the battery was definitely not an ordinary No. 1 or No. 5 battery, otherwise it wouldn't be so serious.
"Jinling? Base? ”
Shen Lei only heard these two words clearly, but it was enough, and combined with the words mentioned earlier by the explosive head, the situation was already very clear.
Whether it is called the Illuminati or the Jinling base, it is certain that a base has indeed been established in Jinling. Maybe the base of Jinling City is its original name, but I don't know why it will be changed to the Illuminati in the future.
This conclusive news made everyone's suspicion of the first four people of the explosion go to half a point, and strengthened the idea of going to Jinling.
