Chapter 397: Hometown Meets the Dead
The guard knew that we were the Anomalous, but he didn't show the slightest nervousness or defense, apparently confident that he could stop us.
Besides, there were three people in the booth, and they only left one guard outside to deal with us, which also proved that they were confident that we would not be able to break through this barrier.
Xindu used to be Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and we were afraid that we would startle the snake, and when Gu Yu and I walked out of the guard's sight, I glanced at Gu Yu, and we jumped off the slope on the side of the road and got into the forest by the roadside.
"Ah Yu, did you say they moved away, or were they trapped inside?"
"Without the protection of the big array, it will be difficult for so many people to move elsewhere, and they will not leave."
"Caught in the alarm line by the new capital? If they have been hiding inside, it should be safe. ”
The town is on the outskirts of the forest, a considerable distance from the heart of the forest, and we don't know where the headquarters of the new capital will be, if it is built deep in the forest, the town will not be the focus of their defense.
"They have plenty of food and medicine, so it's not a problem for them to hide for half a year."
"I'm afraid that I'm afraid that there is a county town nearby, and I want to collect supplies."
"Probably not, both the new capital and the security area have searched this area, although we came later than them, but we are the first visitors to the small city."
"That's right, the town can't be found on the map, as long as they don't conduct a carpet search, our people don't come out, and the town will be fine."
"Observe before you take the next step."
"Obey~"
Gu Yu took me around the nearby forest, there was no monitoring equipment or alarm in the forest, but closer to the direction of the small town, a laser ray wall could be seen in the forest.
This wall of rays can't stop my mental power, but if my body wants to pass through, it will inevitably trigger an alarm.
Gu Yu peeled off the layer of fallen leaves under the ray wall, saying that these rays were emitted from underground, and I am afraid that there were also underground.
In this way, even if there are earth-based abilities, they will not be able to pass through this alarm line.
After all, no matter how strong the ability is, people, corpses, and beasts are flesh and blood after all, unless we can turn into a gust of wind to blow through.
So Gu Yu and I decided to observe in secret for the time being, and we squatted in the dense forest on the side of the road to see if there were any vehicles coming and going on this road.
If Xindu occupies the entire forest, there must be more than one entrance and exit, although this highway leads to the small city, but in fact, it is more than ten kilometers ahead to go down to the fork in the road.
The sentry box is set up on this road, eighty percent is the main road guarding the highway, usually there may be vehicles in and out, responsible for transporting materials or something, maybe we can get through the car in a muddle.
At night, the forest area was so cold that it turned into ice, and we teleported back to the north from the south, and the temperature difference was really large.
Gu Yu made a huge bird's nest out of hay and set it on top of a sturdy old tree, and he and I huddled in the nest to avoid the cold wind.
This situation suddenly reminded me of a sentence in the text: 'Doro, Doro, the cold wind freezes me to death, and I will build a nest tomorrow.'" ’
Not being able to withstand the torment of the cold with sleep is the sad thing about being a zombie.
Since I couldn't sleep, I pulled Gu Yu to chat, "Xun Bishan, are they okay, and I don't know if people from Xindu came when they came back." ”
"They can take care of themselves." Gu Yu hugged my shoulders tightly, and we snuggled together head to head, the howling wind made the branches tremble, and the howl of nocturnal animals could be heard in the distance.
"I'm still worried, even if they can't come out, Zhou Li can always see us back, but Li Huaiqing didn't use brainwave communication to contact us, is this normal?"
"It's not normal, but we can't get in right now, you have to control your emotions and stay calm."
"Okay, I'll try."
I try not to get into the horns, the so-called concern is chaotic, Li Huaiqing did not contact us There are many possibilities, not necessarily as bad as I imagined.
"You're right, they also have Nini, this girl has prophetic abilities, and she is very powerful at critical moments every time."
"Well, on the bright side, they're not kids anymore."
I realized that my old mistakes had come again, and I was always worried that Ah Ying and they would not be able to protect themselves.
And the fact is that there are not a few people in the small city who have experience in surviving in the last days, and Long Tao and the others have all been promoted to one level after collecting the source stone mine.
My thoughts began to diverge to the bright side, but unfortunately no matter how optimistic I was, I couldn't change the fact that the first day of the new year, which was supposed to be the day for me to reunite with my family, passed in the cold wind and lonely forest.
"Ah Yu, it's good to have you by my side." My eyes were astringent, and I struggled to control my tone, not wanting Gu Yu to hear my loneliness.
"I'll always be there." Gu Yu didn't bow his head, didn't look at me, he just patted me lightly on the shoulder, like a child sleeping.
I don't feel sleepy unless I encounter special circumstances, but his action really comforts me and allows me to settle down from my uneasy emotions.
I quieted down, and my sense of the surroundings became stronger, and in the wind of the winter night, I heard another subtle sound.
Zombies' sense of hearing is more sensitive than ordinary people, but I rarely use this function, it is a bit degenerate, only when my mind is empty and my attention is concentrated, the five senses will be enhanced.
Squeak, creak, I carefully distinguish the sound of rolling in the wind, like the sound of human footsteps.
It's already January, and it's already snowing in the north, and the snow in the forest is so thick that the footsteps of animals may be hidden, while the soles of people's feet don't have meat pads, and shoes will inevitably make a sound when they step on the snow.
There seemed to be several people listening to the sounds, and their steps were so light that they could hear that they were trying to keep the sound of walking as low as possible.
Gu Yu noticed my movement and looked down at me, I lifted my head off his shoulder, and listened to the sound in the distance.
Then I leaned into his ear and whispered, "Someone is approaching." ”
Gu Yu moved his lips and asked with a mouth shape: "How many people?" ”
Psychic abilities are useful, but if the other person is also psychic abilities, using them will reveal my location.
I raised my hand and stretched out four fingers and shook it, if it weren't for the wind, I might have been able to smell the number of the other party, but unfortunately the wind blew behind us, and those people were downwind, and I didn't even smell the flesh of the living.
The four men walked gently towards us, and I straightened my back, ready to attack them.
The four men went to the bottom of the old tree, and then stopped, and one of them whispered, "There is a big bird's nest in the tree." ”
"Oops~ It's so big!"
"Maybe there's a bird's egg in there, can you dig it out?"
"Such a big nest, the size of the mother bird is not small, what if it is a grudge, we still have a task to complete."
"Okay, okay, come back and dig it out."
"Be quiet, wake up the big bird, maybe someone will eat whom!"
I grinned silently, Gu Yu was too familiar with my temperament, and as soon as I grinned, he showed a helpless expression.
"Quack—" I clenched my throat and whispered twice, smirking evilly.
"Oh, I'll go!"
"Duck Spirit~"
", it's a crow."
The three of them whispered in unison: "Brothers, copy guys!" ”
"Three, four, five, it's me." I poked my head out of the grass and grinned at the three men under the tree.
"Lei Feng?!"
"It's you—"
“Unbelievable~”
"Quiet." The last voice is the voice of the ghost.
I always remember the voices of these four people, especially the tone of their voices, and the strange style of dialogue.
"See you again." The space in the grass nest was limited, and I really couldn't beckon the four of them to come in and sit, so I could only lie on the edge of the nest and bow my head to catch up with them.
"Hello." Gu Yu's head reached out from behind my shoulders and greeted the four people under the tree.
"We're so fateful, fate, ha-" Xiao San didn't control it for a while, his laughter was a little loud, and he was covered by Xiao Wuyi next to him.
It was absolutely surprising to meet them again, so I asked, "Why are you coming to the three northern provinces?" ”
"Do you two know that the new capital has moved here?" Xiao Si didn't wait for the ghost to speak, so he hurriedly asked back.
"Yes, I was stopped during the day." I say.
"Xindu recently released news that they have developed a vaccine, and the superiors sent us to investigate this matter." Onisu said in a low voice.
It seems that their tasks do not need to be kept secret, at least not from us.
"Vaccines?" Gu Yu and I glanced at each other, we know what the future looks like, and the vaccines that appear now, if not fake, are parasitic butterflies.
"Yes, as soon as this news came out, the effect was extraordinary, have you ever heard of the hero post? Xindu, this is the rhythm of wanting to be the leader of the martial arts alliance. Xiao San took Xiao Wu's hand away and said in a soft voice as much as possible.
"If there is a hero post, you can enter the new capital clearly, and now you are touching the woods, are you planning to smuggle in?" The forest that Gu Yu and I chose is not too far from the road, and you can see the street lights on the side of the road when you stand on the trees.
With such a distance, it is difficult to get lost, obviously they are deliberately avoiding the road, not smuggling, is it tourism.
"Yes, yes, yes, secretly drop into the country, don't shoot a gun." Xiao Si put down the gun as he spoke, they almost shot just now, and the safety was opened.
"It's okay to stow away, there's a ray wall ahead, do you have a way to turn it off without touching it?" I have no doubt about their strength, especially the advanced technology held by their organization.
"Let's take a look." This person is more cautious, so he won't boast without understanding the situation.
Gu Yu and I led the four of them to the ray wall, the rays were staggered horizontally and vertically, and the gap between them couldn't even reach a finger.
"This is a new and improved ability eliminator." Sure enough, the ghost didn't disappoint me, and after seeing the ray wall, he just looked at it and told me the origin of this thing.
No wonder, I secretly said in my heart, it turned out that there was this thing in the way, and those guards had nothing to fear.
Once this thing is touched, whether it is a human, a zombie, or a mutant beast, it will lose its ability and become a normal creature, and lose the blessing of the ability, and the flesh and blood will pass through the laser rays, and the result will be cut into diced flesh.
