Chapter 18: Doubts (Chapter 2 I)
The next morning, Situ Shize woke up from his sleep and found that the woman lying on the ground was dead, and he didn't know when she untied the strip of cloth that helped stop the bleeding, and then tore open the wound, and bled to death. Looking at the woman's body, Situ Shize found that he admired the woman in front of him a little, and she could bear such pain.
Situ Shize was deeply touched by last night's conversation, but he couldn't be sure of the truth of the matter. In desperation, Situ Shize had no tools to bury the woman in front of him, so he could only untie the canopy boat and let the boat go down the river by itself. Situ Shize hopes that she can drift into the sea, and then bury the strong and willful person in front of her from the sea.
Situ Shize followed the road he came to find the previous battlefield, the second sister and they were long gone, and the two of them should have left with everyone. Situ Shize entered the office where the stone was hiding before, but the stone didn't seem to leave any materials and clues at all, so Situ Shize was annoyed for no reason. Fortunately, Situ Shize found his pistol and ammunition on the battlefield, but without a map, he didn't know where the Qili River was as mentioned by the second sister before.
After collecting the life crystals in the corpses of the second-level rows on the battlefield, Situ Shize reluctantly returned to the place where he and the stone parked, and could only move forward in the direction they had before, fortunately, the spring in Guangling was not hot, which also allowed Situ Shize to save some physical strength. As he walked, Situ Shize found that he was completely lost, but the good news was that he entered Guangling City as soon as he entered.
Guangling has a long history, brilliant culture, prosperous business and outstanding people. Located in the central part of Jiangsu Province, at the intersection of the Yangtze River and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, it is a city in the close circle of the Jinling metropolitan area and a city in the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration, and the water source of the eastern route of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project in China. It is known as "the famous capital of Huaizuo, the best place in Zhuxi", and has the reputation of the first city of the canal in China, and is also the first batch of famous historical and cultural cities in China. Jinling has a pleasant environment and beautiful scenery, and is a United Nations Habitat Award City, a National Civilized City, and a famous hot spring city in China. Guangling is also known as the Moon City.
Previously, Situ Shize had been here during college, but the main purpose of coming here was to accompany the beautiful woman to visit the Slender West Lake, saying that he was not all lustful, he had never stepped on two boats at a time; Of course, this is all in the past, and before graduation he was single again until the end came.
Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar scene on the streets of Guangling, Situ Shize felt indescribable in his heart, how good it would be if the end of the world did not happen, maybe he could really find a partner who was willing to accompany him for life, but who knows.
Situ Shize shook off the unrealistic ideas in his mind, Situ Shize also knew several places in Guangling, most of them were hotels, only Zhu Ziqing's former residence and Slender West Lake impressed him deeply. Slender West Lake is in the north of Guangling, where the geographical location is excellent, the hydrology is complex, and there are many small islands and water buildings, and it is a good place to take refuge, Situ Shize thought to himself, if he guessed correctly, there should be survivors there. And now Situ Shize estimated that he should be in the southeast direction of Guangling.
At this time, Situ Shize had given up looking for the stone and Ma Hong, although he blamed the stone for not knowing why he did not leave materials and clues. But this is not the main reason, he has no way to face the two of them because he is equivalent to killing Ma Hong's sister with his own hands.
Along the way, Situ Shize must stop to discern the direction, deal with the walking corpses that appear on the street, and of course, in order to find a means of transportation. Before the end of the world, it was rare to see bicycles in Guangling, but there were a lot of small motorcycles, but Situ Shize didn't know how to make electric lighters, and he didn't know if small motorcycles could be started in this way, so Situ Shize didn't go far after walking for a morning. However, what Situ Shize didn't know was that from his current route and direction, Situ Shize gorgeously missed the second sister's gathering place in Qilihe.
In the evening, Situ Shize finally came to a river running east-west, and he didn't know where he was at this time, but then in the afterglow of the sunset, Situ Shize saw that there were patches of ancient houses on the other side of the river. Situ Shize's heart is a lot more relaxed, it seems that he has found the right direction, this vicinity should not be far from Zhu Ziqing's former residence.
Situ Shize was not in a hurry to cross the river, he didn't know what was going on over there, seeing that the sun was about to set, and the night of the last days was not a song and dance. He found an inn along the river, which was supposed to be closed in response to the call of the state before the end of the day, the gate was locked, and it seemed that the survivors in the neighborhood did not believe that there were any nostalgic supplies in it.
Situ Shize violently ripped open the iron chain hanging on the door, and looked at the results in his hand, Situ Shize smiled, if he went back to the end of the world to participate in a boxing match now, one punch could kill everyone. Situ Shize walked into the hotel and found that there were no living creatures inside, so he immediately relieved himself and looked for the materials in the storage room, and found that there were no good things except instant noodles, sausages, and braised eggs, and of course, drinks. Maybe that's why the survivor team hasn't scraped the nearby inn for the time being, these things can be left for a long time, and they don't need to use the supplies here for the time being. From this point of view, if there is a team of survivors in the vicinity, then their leader must be a wise man and, at the very least, a scheming fellow.
Meimei slept for a while, and early the next morning, Situ Shize put on the clothes he found last night, these clothes should be a change of clothes left by the boss here, looking at the tight clothes, Situ Shize felt helpless for a while, so he had to take off his shirt and go downstairs shirtless.
When he got downstairs, Situ Shize found that there were people nearby, and judging from the posture, the hotel he was in should be surrounded. "What's the situation?" Situ Shize wondered in his heart, but he didn't rush out, but hid in a corner and looked out.
The people outside seemed to be mostly ordinary fortifiers, they parked their cars around the hotel, many of them used their cars as cover, and Situ Shize found that many of them had guns in their hands. This is not common, judging by their clothing, they should not be policemen or soldiers. The more he looked at Situ Shize, the more frightened he became, and he even found that there was a strong man about 1.9 meters carrying a single rocket on his body. "What kind of plane?
After observing for a while, Situ Shize did not retreat, he could be sure that the people outside had just arrived, but he didn't know that the situation inside had not rushed in, they should be waiting for their leader to give an order, judging from the formation they surrounded, their leader should not be a simple person.
