Chapter 23: Reunion
Gao Feng used a dagger to cut off the leg of the mutant wolf, and Zhang Lei ordered his subordinates to put it in the military backpack. Then the group walked towards where the bus stopped. Before he could return to the same place, he heard a fierce fight and panicked cries for help, and Gao Feng hurriedly quickened his pace. Under the moonlight, Duguhong was inseparable from the giant python more than ten meters long, and the huge python body hit the bus from time to time, and the car was filled with the screams of women and the cries of children.
"Hurry!" Gao Feng's sword trick pointed, and the colorful light flashed, and the giant python's head immediately burst into flowers. "That's amazing! This beast's strength is not below mine, but I don't want to be unable to catch a single move from you. Dugu Hong gasped slightly, obviously the fierce battle just now had used all his strength.
"Alright, it's been a lot of delay, let's hurry up." Gao Feng cut off a few pieces of python meat, beckoned Zhang Lei and the soldiers to get on the bus, and then restarted the bus.
After driving for more than an hour, it suddenly rained heavily in the sky, Zhang Lei walked to the driver's seat and said to Gao Feng: "As soon as the sun comes out after the rain in the early morning, the bus can't walk. Gao Feng nodded, and according to Zhang Lei's guidance, the bus quickly drove into the town he said. By this time, the rain had become lighter, and a ray of morning light had stained the earth red, and there were no pedestrians or beast-headed men in the streets.
Gao Feng didn't dare to delay, and drove directly towards the tallest building in the town. Judging from the broken signboard, it seems that this is the seat of the original town government. Gao Feng parked the car in the garage and led everyone to the lobby of the government building. As far as the eye can see, the entire building is in disarray, broken glass, tables and chairs, and dense bullet marks, indicating that there has been a fierce battle here.
Zhang Lei found a spacious conference room, fortunately the air conditioning inside was not damaged, connected to the solar power supply, and after a while, the whole conference room became cold. Gao Feng took out a bag of rice from the space belt, added python meat and wolf meat, and arranged for some people to cook and some people to clean up. He and Duguhong inspected the entire building separately.
The inspection did not find anything abnormal, and after eating, everyone found a place to rest in the conference room. Gao Feng and Dugu Hong sat at the gate to guard, and the two chatted for a while, feeling that the beast-headed people did not dare to move during the day, so they also closed their eyes and rested.
In a daze, Gao Feng seemed to hear someone calling his name, opened his eyes, but found that everyone had fallen asleep, he stood up, walked around, and was about to sit down, when the sound of calling came again, this time I heard it clearly, the sound came from upstairs.
Gao Feng followed the sound all the way up to the seventh floor, and unconsciously his eyes lit up, the girl standing in front of him was not Yun Ni who he had been thinking about for a long time, but who was it? "Baby!" Gao Feng stepped forward and hugged her tightly in his arms, tears couldn't help but burst out of his eyes.
"Brother Feng, look." Gao Feng was about to ask her what happened after her disappearance, but Yunni took out a mirror from her arms. Gao Feng took a look and saw a beautiful woman lying on the bed in the mirror, with a towel on her head, obviously sick, and a man outside the house, with his clothes open, standing in the wind and snow.
Yun Ni pointed to the mirror and said: "This is one of the previous lives of the two of us, the man is a famous man in the Three Kingdoms era, called Xun Cang, the husband and wife are very affectionate, that year his wife was sick, and his whole body was feverish, Xun Cang ran into the wind and snow to freeze his body, and then came back to hug his wife tightly and let her cool down."
"Am I so great?" Gao Feng smiled bitterly. When the picture turned in the mirror, a calligraphy appeared, which read: "Ask the world, what is love?" Straight Religion Life and Death Promise"
"This poem is also written in our previous life, in the Jin Song Dynasty, we are a pair of geese, on the way to the south, the male goose was shot by the hunter, and the female goose committed suicide with favoritism" As she spoke, Yunni's tears burst out of her eyes. She said sadly: "Brother Feng, if I die, will you come to accompany me?" ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Gao Feng couldn't help but tighten his arms, only to find that Yunni's body became as powerless as cotton, and then slowly dissipated like light smoke. Only her voice echoed in the air: "Brother Feng, if I die, will you come to accompany me?" ……”
"No !!" Gao Feng let out an earth-shattering roar, and in an instant, he only felt that all thoughts were lost, and there was nothing to love...... He slowly raised the Purple Moon Dagger.
"Gao Feng, what are you doing?" There was a sudden shout in his ears, Gao Feng looked back, but saw Dugu Hong running over angrily. When I looked closely, I found that I had come to the lobby of the town government at some point.
"Hehe, your concentration is good!" A thought came, and the two looked up, only to see a monster floating like a bat on the roof of the lobby, its whole body was covered with black scales, a single horn on its forehead, a pair of bat-like wings, and a tail covered with scales.
"Flying Yaksha !!" Gao Feng and the others screamed at the same time. Dugu Hong even scolded: "Ghost thing, you have the ability to fight with the uncle for 300 rounds!" What kind of hero is a hero with psychedelics? At this time, Zhang Lei and several soldiers were also alarmed by the shouting, they rushed out, without saying a word, picked up their guns and fired a round of strafing. In the dense rain of bullets, the Flying Yaksha stretched its wings and remained motionless, which seemed to be very useful.
Dugu Hong let out a loud shout, his body shot out like a cannonball, and he punched Yaksha's chest. Yaksha's wings fluttered, and his body drew a strange arc, instantly turning behind Dugu Hong, and his tail pierced the back of his head like a javelin.
Dugu Hong couldn't borrow his strength in mid-air, he roared loudly and grabbed the thorny tail with one hand. At the same time, he flew up and took the door of the Yaksha face. With a strange smile on his face, Yaksha opened his mouth wide to reveal Shirakumori's fangs and bite the toe of the kick. I only heard a "rattle", and the fangs that were stronger than gold and iron were broken into two! "You're not human!" Yaksha was shocked, flapped his wings in succession, and flew into the sky.
"Where to run!" Gao Feng's sword technique was fingered, and the colorful light passed through the body of the Yaksha at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye. Yaksha screamed and fell to the ground.
"What a beautiful psychic attack!" Duguhong slapped the dust on his body while directing Zhang Lei to search around with the soldiers. It's a pity that apart from the killing Yaksha, there is no trace of any other beast-headed people.
Waited until the evening, the group drove on the road again, due to the guidance of Zhang Lei, did not encounter major trouble, to the early morning rain, the bus cleverly avoided the battlefield of the battle, smoothly entered the Yangcheng defense area.
After breaking up with Zhang Lei, Gao Feng sent a car of young and old to the ambulance station, when the sky was already bright, two red suns raged the earth, the temperature of the road soon exceeded 60 degrees, the car could no longer be driven, Gao Feng had to take Duguhong home on foot. Watching the two of them swagger on the hot road, as if nothing had happened. The staff at the ambulance station were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped......
Returning to the bamboo forest villa community again, Gao Feng almost couldn't believe his eyes, the original lush bamboo forest was gone, and on the bare soil, there were only a few cacti, barely leaving a trace of life.
Gao Feng suppressed his excitement. Reach for one of the familiar doorbells. "Who?" An unfamiliar voice came, and the door was opened by a strange old man with a gray beard.
Gao Feng was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the door number, that's right! So he asked, "Didn't the people who lived here have the surname Fan?" ”
The old man smiled and said with a sense of superiority: "This place was requisitioned as a family area for the army half a year ago, and the people who originally lived there were all driven away. ”
Gao Feng heard the nameless fire: "Why did the troops forcibly requisition people's houses? Is there no royal law? ”
"Wang Fa?" The old man sneered repeatedly, with a look of disdain: "What time is it now, the government has long lost control of the situation, whoever has a gun has the final say, and whoever has a hard fist is the king!" ”
"Really?" Gao Feng pulled out the purple moon dagger and swiped lightly at the iron pillar of the street lamp in front of the door, and the solid iron pillar broke in response, "May I ask if your fist is hard or the iron pillar is hard?" ”
The old man was startled and lost his voice: "You...... What do you want? ”
"You must move out within today, otherwise it will be like this pillar!" Gao Feng viciously put down a cruel word, turned around and left.
Leaving the bamboo forest villa area, Gao Feng returned to the place where his parents used to live, but fortunately, his parents and grandparents were there. The family was very happy to see that Gao Feng was safe and sound, and her grandmother and mother held Gao Feng's hand and kept asking long and short questions. Seeing that his grandmother, who had always been pampered, had become yellow and skinny due to lack of nutrition, Gao Feng couldn't help but feel sad, he took out dried meat, dried fish and a bag of rice from the space belt, and asked his mother to cook a meal for everyone.
Fan Ying saw her son conjure up a pile of food like a trick, and hurriedly dissuaded: "Don't take too much, it will be troublesome if you are found by the soldier." ”
"Isn't anyone in charge of the soldiers now?"
"Now a soldier is no different from a bandit!" Gao Yunhan touched his arm that was faintly painful, and said indignantly. When he was kicked out of the bamboo forest villa area, he just stepped forward to theorize a few words, and as a result, he was hit with several gun butts.
Fan Wenyuan flicked the cigarette ash, sighed and said: "In the era of mutation, the troops had no logistical support, and the soldiers worked the battlefield, and when they returned to the rear, they naturally turned one eye open and one eye closed. Something like this would have happened in any war years in history. ”
"Xing, the people are bitter. Death, the people suffer. What country rises and falls, the husband is responsible, it's all fucking bullshit! Duguhong suddenly interjected.
"Who is this?" It was only then that the family discovered Duguhong's existence.
"My name is Dugu, and I am Gao Feng's good friend." Duguhong sat down on the sofa in the living room with a big sting, and did not greet anyone else. In his eyes, the room full of people were his great-grandchildren, and it didn't seem appropriate to call them anything.
"Grandpa, how is your life now?". Gao Feng sat on the chair next to his grandfather. I haven't seen my grandfather for more than a year, and my grandfather looks much older, and his silver hair, which was originally shiny, has become unkempt.
"What else?" Fan Wenyuan lit another cigarette: "Everyone is nested in the house during the day, but fortunately, the city has switched to solar power generation in the past ten years, otherwise the air conditioner will have no power supply, and everyone will die of heat." After 12 o'clock in the evening, it is the time to come out for work activities, in fact, there is no work now, planting sweet potatoes and potatoes, exchanging some daily necessities, today I don't know what will happen tomorrow, everyone is just struggling to breathe. ”
"Xiao Feng, I heard that those beast-headed monsters can eat people, is it true?" Grandma chimed in.
Dugu Hong smiled: "Of course it's true, the beast-headed monster is the legendary rakshasa, they keep lactating women in captivity like cows, and make babies into roast milk people...... It's like humans did with poultry in the first days. Hearing that his grandmother was so frightened that he screamed, Gao Feng stopped Dugu Hong from continuing to speak, and he comforted: "I now have the strength to protect the safety of my relatives, and the first thing to do now is to take back our own things!" ”
Gao Yunhan was shocked and said: "Xiaofeng, don't mess around, can we ordinary people fight the guns in the hands of others?" ”
"Dad, don't worry, I won't do anything I'm not sure about."
At this time, my mother's meal was ready, although there was only a plate of beef jerky and a plate of dried fish as a dish, but everyone ate it with relish, "I haven't eaten rice for more than half a year." Grandma's hand holding chopsticks couldn't help but tremble.
After eating, Gao Feng looked at the phone on the coffee table and asked, "Can the phone still work?" ”
"Wireless communication has long been cut off, wired telephones are still available in urban areas, and the lines to other places are estimated to have been destroyed by beast-headed monsters."
Gao Feng dialed Yang Peng's number, and after a while, a weak voice came from the phone: "Who?" ”
"Yang Peng, I'm Gao Feng!"
"Good boy! I know you can't die! When did you come back? ”
"You just came back today, how are you doing during this time?"
"What else? Nibbling sweet potatoes every day, there is no oil in the stomach at all. ”
"You make an appointment with Liu Zhenyi, and we'll meet in the evening."
"Great!"
After hanging up the phone, Gao Feng took Duguhong out of the house, at this time the temperature was still very high, and there were few pedestrians on the road. There are hardly any roadside shops open. I heard my grandfather say that after the advent of the era of mutation, banknotes became waste paper overnight, and several large trading markets in the city were bartered, among which food and medicine were sought-after goods. In addition, most of the shops and restaurants in the urban area are closed. The city's colorful nightlife in the past has also been completely paralyzed.
Gao Feng came to the agreed place, and Yang Peng and Liu Zhenyi were already waiting early. It's an abandoned bar, except for a few tables and chairs, it's empty, not even half a confetti, but the air conditioning works.
Gao Feng took out some jerky and biscuits, looked at Yang and Liu's gobbling up, and couldn't help frowning: "When I asked you to store food, you didn't do what I said?" ”
"Of course there is, I even used the money to buy food for marriage, but then all the food was collected by the soldiers, what do you say about unified scheduling and ......unified distribution," Liu Zhenyi said indignantly.
"Now each person is allocated two sweet potatoes a day, and I have no strength to walk when I am hungry." Yang Peng said as he shoved a biscuit into his mouth.
Dugu Hong couldn't help but sneer, "It turned out to be two wastes!" ”
"Who are you?"
"He is my new friend Dugu Hong, a reclusive martial arts master." Gao Feng didn't want to spend too much time explaining, so he gave Dugu Hongan an identity indiscriminately.
"Master? How tall is it? Liu Zhenyi's words were sarcastic.
"One, don't even think about two hundred beast-headed monsters coming close to me." Dugu Hong said proudly.
Yang Peng and Liu Zhenyi gasped and didn't dare to say anything more. Although I haven't seen the beast head monster with my own eyes, the beast head is as powerful as thunder.
After a while, Yang Peng asked again: "Gao Feng, what are your plans to come back?" ”
Gao Feng gently turned the ring on his fingertips and said, "Now that we have entered the era of fist talking, of course we are taking back what belongs to you!" First of all, my grandfather's villa ......"
"Your grandfather's villa? Isn't it occupied by soldiers? Do you want to die? Yang Peng looked incredulous.
"A soldier is afraid of a bird! Those few broken guns Lao Tzu still don't look at it, just wait a while for the two of you to watch from a distance behind, Lao Tzu will let you see what real strength is! Duguhong said in high spirits.
