Chapter 18: Strange Liquids
After a little rectification, the two continued on their way......
The last days are full of dangers, this is not an empty word, except for the two or three hours when the sun is at its most intense at noon, the inertia of the dark chasers is greater, and they will retreat into dark corners to rest, and the rest of the time they are basically wandering outside, looking for food.
Last time, Xia Jian woke up and came out of the basement and didn't meet the dark chaser, but he just encountered a small mutant mouse, which was already his pig's foot aura, and his luck was so good that he was against the sky, but in that case, he planted it, and almost didn't lose his life.
Don't look at the half-encouraged and half-forced people in the shelter now to let everyone come out to hunt wild food, and every time they come out, there are hundreds of people, but as far as Xia Jian knows about Lu Dao (of course, all the news he knows about Lu Dao now is from Cui Kai), among so many survivors, the one who searches for the farthest distance should be the one in front of him, and the rest are basically wandering around within two kilometers of the shelter, not that everyone doesn't want to go farther, but the time is too tight, and the span is too big, if there is no hiding place prepared, There is basically no chance of coming back alive.
Maybe it's really my luck that is high enough......
It's not the first time Xia Jian has thought like this, otherwise, how could Xiao Ling choose herself as her little brother if so many people didn't choose, you must know that she is the only mutant in the shelter!! No number of people can envy it!
Why would you be so sure?
Isn't that obvious? Rescue him back, treat his wounds, teach him survival skills in the wild, and improve his strength along with it, even if this girl really has some ulterior motives, he also admits it.
Xia Jian secretly pinched the crystal that was close to his pocket, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, these years, I really still eat soft rice, I am being raised, and the people who hug my thighs are so mixed!
As the two of them continued to move on, slowly, they began to deviate from the general range of the daily activities of the survivors of the Vault, and the dark shadows that swayed in the dark corners of the building gradually increased, and from time to time they would encounter one or two lone dark chasers wandering the streets
When Xiao Ling led the way in front, she became more and more vigilant, even if she encountered the kind of lone dark chaser, she would not attack, but patiently waited for them to leave, until she confirmed that there was no danger, and then she would choose to continue to move forward.
Another thirty minutes passed......
At this time, nearly an hour has passed since he came out, but looking at Xiao Ling's posture, it seems that the destination this time has not yet arrived, and Xia Jian can't help but feel a little anxious.
"Hey, Xiaoling, how far is it ......?"
When he stopped again, Xia Jian couldn't help but ask, and at the same time quietly changed his title for Xiao Ling.
"It's almost ......," Xiao Ling said coldly.
"But we really have to keep ......"
Xia Jian glanced at the street in front of him with a weak heart, and through the gaps between those buildings, ghost-like figures loomed in the dark corners.
The dark chasers in this area can no longer be described as much, you can see more than a dozen in a random corner, Xia Jian doubts, no, not doubts, but sure, I believe that as long as the time comes, this area will be completely crowded with those dark chasers who pour out of the building.
"Here, good...... It seems to be downtown......"
At this time, Xia Jian finally remembered what kind of place this was, wasn't it the only pedestrian street near the university town! No wonder there are so many dark chasers in the buildings on both sides......
But what is this doing here? You must know that what they lack now is food, and there are not many restaurants in the pedestrian street.
Don't......
Xia Jian suddenly thought of a possibility, as long as he crossed the pedestrian street, there seemed to be a supermarket at the opposite intersection, which seemed to be RT-Mart Supermarket. …,
Could it be that she is playing with the idea of this supermarket?
Xia Jian turned his head to look at Xiao Ling, and said with a shocked face: "Are you going to RT-Mart......
Xiao Ling nodded in acquiescence, her eyes were full of waves, as if going to the supermarket was a trivial matter.
But Xia Jian couldn't calm down, and confirmed again without giving up: "Are you really sure you want to go there......"
You must know that the Langdao supermarket is not a good place, although there are many supplies in it, but as far as Xia Jianzhi Ludao news, the number of dark chasers in it is too many to count, and countless survivors have flocked there one after another, like moths to a fire, and I have never heard of anyone who can successfully come out alive.
Even last week, the police in the shelter organized hundreds of people to storm the supermarket, but as a result, less than ten of them came back alive, and these ten were the same ten people who were in charge of guarding the surrounding area.
At this time, several dark chasers roaming the streets finally retreated into the shadows of the building.
"Rush ......"
Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Ling accelerated suddenly, suddenly jumped out, and directly answered Xia Jian with actions.
………………………………
I don't know when the wind started......
Xia Jian hid in a weedy pile of rubble, surrounded by a triangular matrix of three abandoned cars, this is a perfect hiding place, as long as you don't get too close, you won't know that there is someone hiding here.
Xia Jian adjusted his prostrate posture from time to time, trying to integrate his body with the surrounding environment.
The breeze with tiny grains of sand gently blew on his face, cold, like a knife scraping, but he didn't dare to move, for fear of making a little noise.
Xiao Ling was beside him, next to the vehicle less than a meter away from him, with a solemn face, carefully observing the surroundings through the gap between the two cars......
The supermarket is not far in front, the glass windows of the outer shop and the glass on the wall have been burst, glass shards are splashed all over the ground, a dazzling array of goods in the shop are scattered all over the ground, and next to it, a huge and eye-catching 'RT-Mart' sign has fallen to the ground crookedly.
In the middle of them and the supermarket, separated by a not very large square, the straight-line distance between the two is less than five hundred meters......
The foundation of the entire supermarket and the surrounding plaza is lower than the road surface, about two meters lower.
The ground on the periphery of the square had cracked a lot, and it was densely packed like a spider's web into the grass on the side of the road, and these cracks were full of weeds.
Inside, there is a pit that is about the size of a basketball court, and I don't know how the road was formed, and now the pit is full of a pool of water.
More accurately, it was a pool of strange black and steaming wisps of liquid......
