Chapter 792: BBQ BBQ
Wang Lu was like a naughty child, but he was caught, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and hurriedly retracted his hand: "It's done very well, it's very good." ”
Xu Ben said with a smile: "Actually, my own craftsmanship is not good, most of the ship models here are made by me in fishing villages in Liaoning, Guangdong, Fujian, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other coastal areas, looking for old shipwrights to recall the fishing boats and shipping ship models used locally." ”
Wang Lu sighed "ah": "This ancient ship museum was built by you, Leader Xu?" ”
Xu Ben nodded: "I started fishing at the age of 17, and later engaged in marine transportation, and now I am 56 years old, and I have spent most of my life at sea." More than 10 years ago, a friend of mine returned from Japan and brought some pictures of our ancient ships from the Tang Dynasty that were collected by the Japanese Museum. I thought that what the Japanese could do was, why can't we Chinese do it, so I thought about getting an ancient ship museum to create and collect Chinese ancient ship models. I spent 10 years, collecting, making more than 800 ship models, spending millions of yuan, originally, before the outbreak of Resident Evil, this museum was going to be officially opened, I planned not to charge tickets, anyone who likes to see can come and see, but I didn't expect ......"
Wang Lu didn't expect that the Xu Ben in front of him turned out to be a patriotic person with ideals and beliefs, although these ship models are not real cultural relics, but they also condensed the hard work of this old man. It's just that with the advent of the biochemical virus, this museum, ship model, millions of dollars and the enthusiasm of an old man for more than 10 years have come to naught. Now don't talk about the ancient ship model, even the human race itself will perish. All the civilizations we have created will be annihilated in the eternal flow of time and space.
Wang Lu sighed, cheered up and persuaded: "Leader Xu, fortunately, these ship models of yours have not been destroyed in the turmoil, they are well preserved, believe me, one day there will be many visitors to see your ship models, you museum, it is not a problem to be a patriotic education base or something." ”
Wang Lu's words are not sycophants. Xu Ben's ship model is still quite exquisite. It is much more reliable than the porcelain plate of Zhao Yun of the Three British War and the figure jar of the Yandi period in a museum in Hebei, so that it will not make people look at the three views and destroy them together, and look up to the sky to the point of speechlessness.
Xu Ben smiled innocently, and then took Wang Lu to visit some of his most proud ship models. Speaking of excitement. Dancing. Saliva splashed, and Wang Lu took two steps back silently, because Xu Ben's saliva bounced onto his clothes.
Wang Lu interjected coldly and asked, "Your village is well preserved. Many of the villagers survived, and it seems that when Resident Evil broke out, there were not many crimes. ”
Xu Ben put down a model of a sand boat in his hand, sighed and said, "How to say it, it can be said that it is good luck or bad luck." He pointed to the outside of the house and said, "Most of the villagers in our Jinglan Village work in the Dajiahe Town Industrial Park next door. When the zombies appeared, the most people died in the industrial park, and some of the young men finally escaped home. The leader of the terrain king of our village has also seen it, twists and turns, strangers can go around for a long time, and the people who survived in the village relied on the complex terrain to kill all the zombies and survive. However, most of the young and strong villagers have become zombies in the industrial park due to the collective outbreak of the virus. ”
Wang Lu nodded: "Jinglan Village is lucky, I came all the way from Yinjiang, and I really saw what it means to have no rooster crow for thousands of miles, and the white bones are exposed in the wild, of course, the word white bones should be changed to zombies." Lao Xu, it's good for people to survive, and if they live, they will have a future. ”
The two chatted for a while, and then Wang Lu said goodbye to Xu Ben and returned to the caravan at the entrance of the village, preparing to go to the bonfire party in the evening.
As soon as he returned to the caravan, Wang Lu felt a faint tense atmosphere, and he hurriedly found Feng Haiqi and asked, "What's wrong?" Let it be like a great enemy. ”
Feng Haiqi was greatly relieved to see Wang Lu return safely, as long as Wang Lu was not taken hostage, then the caravan could let go of his hands and feet against the enemy, he nodded at Wang Bomin next to him: "You tell Captain Wang what you see." ”
Wang Bomin said in 1510 that an orphan can eat meat, and hundreds of zombies are locked up in the center of the village without strict precautions, and the zombies are silent to ordinary villagers...... At the end, Wang Bomin said: "Captain Wang, I guess that the villagers of this Jinglan Village have abilities, although they are not the kind of powerful abilities that can be compared with Captain Wang, but so many people have abilities......"
Wang Lu tilted his head sideways and thought for a while: "Call Li Yong and Ding Wei over." Li Yong and Ding Wei were both on the periphery, and it took a while before they hurried there.
Wang Lu got straight to the point: "Li Yong, Ding Wei, have you noticed anything unusual about the villagers in Jinglan Village?" "The Psychic Corpse knows best about the ability.
Li Yong and Ding Wei said almost in unison: "I don't know." ”
Wang Lu was stunned: "I don't know? What does this mean? Wang Bomin guessed that the villagers all have abilities and are not afraid of the attack of zombies, so you don't have a little sense? ”
Li Yong said: "I really don't know, in my opinion, these villagers are very ordinary survivors. If anything, it's that my zombies don't have the desire to attack them. ”
"Is there such a thing?" Wang Lu looked at Ding Wei.
Ding Wei said: "Yes, Captain Wang, the zombies under my command will not take the initiative to attack humans after my strict management, but they can still sense their greed for human flesh and blood through brain waves, but when the villagers of Jinglan Village passed by the zombies, I did not sense the fluctuations of the zombies' brain waves." ”
"Does every villager have that ability?" Wang Lu asked.
"Every villager I come in contact with has this ability, including the elderly, women and children." Li Yongdao.
Wang Lu touched his chin and muttered: "There is an ability, but it is not very powerful, it seems to be able to make the zombies ignore it, it is somewhat similar to my ability, but obviously it can't interfere with the zombie ......" He suddenly asked Li Yong: "What about you?" How do you feel about these villagers? Do you feel the urge to eat their flesh? ”
Li Yong said indifferently: "It is my highest purpose not to harm human beings. ”
Wang Lu looked at Ding Wei again, and Ding Wei also nodded.
Wang Lu waved his hand: "Go down." Pay attention to the increased vigilance. He smiled bitterly in his heart, if the villagers of Jinglan Village had the ability not to be attacked by zombies, then Li Yong Ding Wei, who he thought he was helping, and hundreds of zombies pulling carts would be abolished, and only 10 or so people were left who faced 7 or 80 villagers head-on. Fortunately, he wandered around the village and did not find any heavy weapons, and his side was equipped with long and short guns, as well as body armor.
-- Of course, the situation is not so sinister as it gets. Whether it is the villagers or Xu Ben. I can't see their malice, and they do business very well, if behind all this seemingly normal, the villagers of Jinglan Village are preparing a huge conspiracy. Then they are the best performing artists in the world. Nearly 100 people can perform in their true colors. No flaws.
Wang Bomin said nervously: "What should I do?" Why don't we go to that bullshit bonfire party at night? ”
Before Wang Lu could reply, Feng Haiqi said categorically: "Go!" Why not? This kind of time. You must not show weakness, if you show cowardice, people will have no idea in the first place, and they will be ready to move. ”
Feng Haiqi swept around the caravan members with a cold look: "Don't you think that this is my old man's adventure, speaking of abilities, can he be stronger than our captain Wang?" Even if everyone in Jinglan Village has special abilities, their personal combat power is not strong, which is like how many jackals there are on the grassland, and when they encounter a lion, they will have their tails between them. I'm still a little worried if Jinglan Village attacks us by force, but if I want to rely on my ability, it's really Guan Yunchang's big sword in front of him. ”
Wang Lu didn't expect Feng Haiqi to compare himself to a lion on the grassland, and he was so happy to show his white teeth at the moment: "Old Feng, it's over, it's over, it's too much of a boast." I have some ability, but two fists can't match four hands, if people swarm ......"
Feng Haiqi said categorically: "Could it be that we people eat dry rice?" There are many of them, and the weapons we have in our hands are not vegetarians. ”
Wang Lu hurriedly said: "It's not yet to this point, I chatted with Xu Ben for a while just now, and he is also a sincere person." As he spoke, he told everyone about his time in the Ancient Ship Museum. At the end, Wang Lu said: "From the analysis of all aspects, the survivors in this Jinglan Village are indeed native to their hometowns, I look at it, Qingzhuang's strength accounts for more than one-third of the points, such strength, if there is no ability to protect himself, it is not easy to mix in this last world." They don't have enough supplies and a small range of activities, so it can be seen that they are not very aggressive, otherwise they would not just occupy such a small corner in the middle of nowhere. ”
The caravan everyone discussed for a while, Wang Lu finally made a decision, the bonfire party must be attended, bring a few short guns, Wang Bomin, Li Yong, Ding Wei stayed in the name of taking care of the goods, borrowed the cart as a cover, set up the anti-aircraft machine gun, once there is a police, the anti-aircraft machine gun is full of firepower, can sweep the small Jinglan village from the head of the village to the end of the village.
When night fell, Xu Ben personally came to the caravan to invite Wang Lu and his party, Wang Lu was wearing body armor under his coat, stuffing the May Fourth under his arm, holding Xu Ben's hand, talking very happily, and walking towards the archway. Behind him, Wang Bi'an, Feng Haiqi, Lu Kai, Tang Hui and others followed, carrying some food and entering the village together - this invitation to the banquet could not be left empty-handed, so Wang Lu also prepared a lot of food, and even some wine and drinks.
The bonfire party was set up on the grain drying field in front of the ancestral hall of Jinglan Village, in which a firewood stack more than one person high had been erected, and a large reed mat was spread next to it, and the villagers sat cross-legged on the seat, and when they saw the caravan coming, they nodded and greeted with a smile.
Shalin looked at the field carefully, and there was no place for the villagers to carry guns and no other places to hide on the mats - did the villagers really have no ill will? Is it just an ordinary party?
Lu Kaizheng was laughing with Xie Jian next to him: "I have participated in this bonfire party many times before, and the coolest one is still in Xinjiang, I went with the free travel organized by my mother's unit, and I ate roasted whole sheep in an authentic herdsman's house, hey, that taste." In fact, the sheep is the meat on the surface of the roast, cut it with a knife, and the inside is bubbling with blood, which is a virtue with the seven mature steaks in the steak house, but the taste is really delicious, just one word, fresh! Obviously his hands were dripping with oil, but he didn't feel greasy. ”
Xie Jian pursed his lips and whispered, "Look at the poor and sour appearance of those villagers when they came to trade, you really dreamed that you wanted to eat roast whole sheep here." It's pretty much the same for you to eat baked sweet potatoes. You see, there are not a single sheep around this land, not even a single pig. ”
Lu Kai shrugged: "Have you forgotten the jerky they used to exchange for sarin's old grain?" This must be the meat of some large beast. Didn't Uncle Wang say they had abilities? I think they must be able to catch some large beasts with their abilities to subsidize their lives, or they really can't nibble on sweet potatoes every day. ”
Xie Jian scratched his head: "I haven't heard of any large beasts along the coast of Ninghai Elephant Mountain, there are wild boars, but the meat doesn't look like pork." By the way, you said it could be whale meat? Isn't this by the sea? Maybe they'll be able to kill whales, it's big, and if you catch one, you can eat it for a month, and the rest of the meat can be used as jerky. ”
Lu Kai hugged his arms: "Whale meat? Well. It's really possible. I knew that I would have asked Shalin for some jerky to taste. I've eaten shark meat, but I've never had the chance to taste whale meat. ”
Xie Jian said with a smile: "You foodie, you even want to eat first-class protected animals, you really don't have quality." ”
Lu Kai shrugged: "We humans can be regarded as first-class protected animals now." There is no one out of ten. I see that I am already on the edge of the precipice of extinction. It's whales. Without human hunting, they are the top overlords of the marine food chain, and they will reproduce more and more. Killing a few whales in Jinglan Village is really a very common thing. ”
At this time, Wang Lu had been invited by Xu Ben to sit down on the chairman, Wang Bi'an was accompanied, the Yashan caravan and others also gathered together to sit down, the villagers quickly brought up some food and drink, Wang Lu glanced at it, all of them were sweet potatoes, potatoes or bagged food, some of them were just bought from the Yashan caravan, and the villagers directly borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, so he hurriedly signaled Sha Lin and others to distribute the food they brought to the villagers, and the table looked richer.
There was no serious ceremony, Xu Ben and Wang Lu touched the wine glass, even if the party began, the bonfire was quickly burning after being poured gasoline to help burn.
Wang Lu paid attention to it, and saw that there were two small fires next to the big fire, one with an iron frame on it, which seemed to be used for barbecue, and the other with a large soup pot - but it was clearly a small ceramic water tank, obviously, this was used to cook the main dish, and now the sweet potatoes and convenience foods served on the table were only appetizers. He was extremely careful, and when he saw Xu Benkai eating, he took a few bites of the same food.
A few handsome women came up and sang a few songs generously, a young man played the harmonica, and even a street dance, which also attracted the cheers and applause of the villagers and the caravan.
Xu Ben saluted Wang Lu with a glass of expired beer, and said with a smile: "I can't play a trick on the stage, we boys and girls used to work in the industrial park, don't we pay attention to grassroots culture now?" Several factories have organized theatrical performance teams, and when they have time, they can sing a song or dance or something, and now there is no other entertainment in this world, that is, to have a good time, and the leader of the king should not laugh. ”
Wang Lu applauded and said, "It's good, it's good, I think you have the spirit of revolutionary optimism." ”
Xu Ben said: "Seeking joy in suffering, seeking happiness in suffering, Leader Wang is a person who understands, no matter when, life always has to pass, instead of frowning every day, it is better to smile more." ”
The bonfire burned brighter and brighter, and the flickering light cast a distorted light on the faces of the people around them, and the sound of firewood bursting from time to time could be heard in the fire, and the heat wave rolled up the ashes on people's faces and hands. Wang Lu couldn't help but move to the back, he was sitting on the chairman, very close to the fire, although it is autumn now, but the temperature at night in the coastal area is still about 20 degrees, it is not cold, this fire is roasting on people, it is really hot. You must know that Wang Lu still has a thick body armor in his coat, and there is already a thin layer of sweat on his head.
Wang Bi'an was very excited, the bonfire and barbecue were the things that suited his appetite the most, he ate snacks in his mouth, but his eyes were fixed on the grill and soup pot, and he guessed in his heart what kind of meal the villagers of Jinglan Village would get later--could it really be whale meat?
At this time, there was a small commotion on the periphery of the venue, and Xu Ben smiled: "The show has begun." Wang Lu turned his head to look, only to see a few strong villager boys, with a group of zombies walked in, the zombies have men, women and waddle baby zombies, and there is no rope tied to the body, so follow the villagers honestly, only when passing the seat of the Yashan caravan, only when they show their teeth and roar a few times, but they are slapped back by the villager boy who accompanied the team.
Wang Lu Yilin, sure enough, has special abilities, but I don't know, what do they want to do with a few zombies at the bonfire party? Used to attack caravans? This is also ridiculous, just a few zombies, they don't need to seal the sea to make a move, even sarin can destroy them. Nine times out of ten, they came to show off the abilities of the villagers.
Wang Lu smiled and looked coldly at the villagers.
At this time, the young men had already brought the zombies to the fire, and one of them, a high-headed and powerful young man, came forward with a sharp knife, he walked around the zombie group, and finally stood in front of a little girl zombie. The little girl zombie looked like she was about 10 years old, her appearance was relatively complete, and she didn't look like she had mutated after being bitten, but she was the first to be infected with a biochemical virus, and there were only a few rags left on her clothes, which were pulled on her shoulders and waist.
