Chapter 12: Cooperation?
The four of them came to the front of a courtyard by car, the long wall shows the breadth of the courtyard, and the two big stone lions at the door stand there to show domineering and atmosphere, and the red wall and black top wall are like the ancient government and emit bursts of official pressure. The yard is very big, the driver drove directly in, saying that it would take a few minutes to drive to the living room.
"What a great courtyard, the stone lion is so domineering, although there are also in other places, but I have never seen such a well-maintained courtyard!ww" Angel looked at the courtyard and let out a silver bell-like laugh.
"This courtyard was built at the time of the construction of this "town", and it was also the first building in the town to be rebuilt. The General's Courtyard is located in the very center of the town, and it is also the only courtyard house in the town. The driver briefly introduced the courtyard and stopped talking.
"En~ I didn't expect the general to be a person who would enjoy it, and there weren't too many people living in the courtyard. By the way, what is your general's surname? It should be an old man, right? Only old people like courtyards~" Murong Wei smiled and asked, she hadn't seen the courtyard for a long time, and the relics of history were rarely seen intact, so she was more excited.
"Our general's surname is Chen. The driver would only play a game and didn't answer any more questions, which made Ling Yifeng, who didn't care much about it, look at the driver a few more times.
Ling Yifeng looked at the driver, the driver was not as strong as the soldiers brought by the lieutenant general, but the muscles that emerged from the sleeves were unusually strong, and the breath that came out of his body was the breath that could only be emitted by killing countless people. There was no other vehicle following the four-seater military vehicle, which showed that the general trusted the strength of this driver very much. Just a driver has such strength, and this General Chen's power makes Ling Yifeng feel very headache.
The courtyard was also very heavily guarded, and there were patrolling troops and secret sentries everywhere, but this made Ling Yifeng feel very strange. From the moment they entered the city, the whole city was friendly, and there shouldn't be any riots. With high walls and orderly troops, there should be no enemy entering, let alone in a world where people are struggling to protect themselves. Then why are the guards in this courtyard so cautious?
"Why are there so many patrols, shouldn't they be used to prevent us, has something serious happened?" Ling Yifeng asked the driver a question very directly, but the driver frowned but only answered, I don't know.
Seeing that the driver didn't intend to tell anything, Ling Yifeng obediently shut up. The car also quickly reached the middle of the yard.
"It's here, please get out of the car. The driver stopped in front of a building, like an ancient dwelling, small but full of solemnity.
After the four got out of the car, the car immediately drove away, and standing in front of the four people was a military man with the rank of colonel. The soldiers in their 30s were full of majesty, although they were not as good as the lieutenant general, but they also made the four of them feel a lot of threat.
"The four of you are the distinguished guests invited by the general, please hurry, General Chen has been waiting for you for a long time. The colonel stretched out his hand and shook hands with the four men, then smiled and invited the four into the room.
Walking into the hall, there was a man sitting in the deepest seat of the hall towards the door. Although this person's hair is a little gray, he looks like he is 40-50 years old, but the strong muscles on his body make him look a little younger. The military uniform on this middle-aged man shows his identity, but the aura emitted from his body is only like an ordinary middle-aged man, and he does not have the domineering and sharp spirit that a general should have.
The colonel led the four to the middle of the hall, and then walked quickly behind the general to stand on guard.
"Hehe, welcome four to our town. Everyone who comes is a guest, so let's sit down, and Rumei serves tea. The general smiled kindly, and ordered the old woman, who looked a little old, sitting across from his table, to pour the tea.
"You are General Chen, I have heard of your name since I entered the city, but I didn't expect to meet so soon. Although Ling Yifeng was dissatisfied, he didn't show it.
"But the way you invited us is a bit too special, isn't it?What if we die in the hands of your soldiers~?" Angel didn't hold back and said very unhappily, and Ling Yifeng didn't plan to stop Angel, some things need to be said by others, Angel is exactly this kind of character.
"Hahaha!" the general laughed heartily, "That's right, this matter was arranged by the old man, the old man, I just plan to test your strength, if you are not happy, the old man apologizes to you." ”
Ling Yifeng was taken aback by the general's readily admitting his mistake, and Angel wanted to say something, but she didn't say it, because she had already seen the old woman come out with snacks and tea.
"Thank you, ma'am. Ling Yifeng took the old lady's tea and thanked him. The old woman smiled at the four of them and returned to her seat with two cups of tea.
"Taste it, my wife's tea is superb. Now that the rules were gone, the general took a sip of tea, then put down the teacup and looked at the four people.
"Thank you, General. The four of them said together, and took a sip from their teacups.
"I don't know why the general invited us here, but he used such a big deal to invite us. Ling Yifeng put down the teacup and said coldly to the general. Although the general is very kind, Ling Yifeng doesn't trust the kind of person who will test you first and then entertain you. Especially this person has very strong subordinates around him and there are strict troops on guard, this kind of person who trusts you on the surface but guards you in his heart, Ling Yifeng has always been reluctant to believe it.
"Xiao Wang, you go down first, don't worry about me here, busy with your going. As if he saw Ling Yifeng's thoughts, General Chen asked the colonel to leave first in order to show that he had no malicious intent. However, this also shows the general's confidence in his own strength, but it does make Ling Yifeng feel a little relieved.
"Don't be nervous, the old man invited you here this time in the hope of cooperating with you. The general took out a few pieces of paper from the folder on the table and handed one to each of the four Ling Yifeng.
"The strength of the four of us is not very powerful, there are many people in the general's army who are more powerful than us, why do you need to cooperate with us?" Ling Yifeng and the four took the paper, Ling Yifeng glanced at it and put it on the table and stopped looking at it.
"If it's for us to be death squads to help you spy on the enemy's strength, forget it. Ling Yifeng opened his mouth coldly, the paper was a human wolf who had fought with Ling Yifeng's four people, some information about the werewolves and the details of the battle of the last five people, indicating that the army had been monitoring them for a long time, and the feeling of being investigated made Ling Yifeng very unhappy.
"Don't get me wrong, the old man just wants to tell you that our enemies are the same, and we can cooperate. The general was not upset by the disrespect in Ling Yifeng's words, and smiled kindly.
"There's no need, it's not inevitable that we'll fight him, he's just playing soy sauce, and we're sure to kill him. Ling Yifeng took a sip of tea and said.
He had already gotten what he wanted to know from the general's mouth, the human wolf was really a person of a huge organization, if it was just a human wolf, it was only a matter of fingers for the general to deal with him. But Ling Yifeng was not afraid, because a huge organization would not send people to take revenge during such a period of lack of personnel. And even if you can't beat it, you can run.
"Are you going to abandon your companion?" said the general, taking out a few more pieces of paper from the folder and letting his wife hand them to the four men.
"What's wrong with Lin Yumiao!" Ling Yifeng's first reaction was Lin Yumiao, because they had only been in contact with Lin Yumiao during this time.
"Don't worry, that friend of yours hasn't happened yet, but the old man's people are lost, and I don't know the current situation. The general smiled and motioned for his wife to get some refreshments.
"......" Ling Yifeng was silent, he knew that it was difficult to track in this world where zombies were rampant, so he didn't doubt the general's words. Lin Yumiao was targeted by other organizations, and he couldn't do anything with only four people, so he could only rely on the army.
"If your people are lost, then there is no point in us cooperating with you?" Ling Yifeng asked.
