Chapter 107: Dark Forest
Three days ago the night everyone just came back, Zheng Suo looked for Wei Yuan alone, because Wei Yuan talked about the inferences and "speculations" on the phone before, Zheng Suo has been unable to sleep at night, heard that several people came back safely, Zheng Suo was in good spirits, and immediately called Wei Yuan over, hoping to tell him that all this was indeed just a misunderstanding.
But unfortunately, it backfired.
After listening to Wei Yuan's report, Zheng Suo's heart sank.
"Do you know what would happen if you let those people outside know that the people who have been eroded not only have not disappeared, but have also changed into more terrifying beings?"
Wei Yuan looked at Zheng Suo and could understand the anxiety of dealing with it.
What will happen will make the situation that has been so hard to maintain fall short, and the barely maintained living base will fall into a state of no return.
What will humans do when they lose their minds, no one will know.
I really didn't expect Wei Yuan to bring back bad news in bad news, everything turned out to be true,
"Zheng Suo, have you ever heard God's equation?" Wei Yuan's gaze was meaningful.
Zheng Suo's expression was blank: "What equation?" β
Wei Yuan said slowly after a moment: "The library has a basement converted from a former air-raid shelter, and we have some equations carved on one of the walls there......"
Zheng Suo's reaction looked extremely shocked, it was a genuine reaction, and he waited for Wei Yuan to finish speaking and immediately asked, "What about the equation, have you copied it down?" "This is a historic discovery.
Wei Yuan shook his head, how could the situation at that time be able to be copied, besides, "It has been buried in the ground by rocks." β
Zheng Suo had a stuck expression, and then saw him pacing back and forth in the office, with a headache expression that his hair was about to be burned bald.
"Are you sure your team members are tight-lipped?"
Come to think of it, this matter is a bit too important, and it is not appropriate to publicize it at this stage anyway.
Wei Yuan paused, "They don't talk nonsense, as witnesses, they know the seriousness of the matter." β
Zheng Suo showed a good expression, but soon, he said again: "What about that girl...... SurvivorγIt's called ginger or something.γ Zheng Suo coughed lightly twice as he spoke.
This Jiang Shan is not his own person after all, and he is a super hot potato, Zheng accepted her in order to give Wei Yuan a face, and the other is that Wei Yuan promised that Jiang Shan is valuable, and maybe one day it will be the key for them to break the game.
Anyway, things are already so bad, so why not gamble.
"Jiang Shan won't say anything." Wei Yuan looked at Zheng Suo, "I'll vouch for her." β
Jiang Shan's character doomed her to be lazy and nosy.
Zheng Suo is silent, his heart is not at peace now, the impact of this matter is too great, and he will not be able to sort it out for a while. I don't know how to deal with it.
"Tomorrow, I'll find a way to contact the minister." Zheng said.
Zheng's authority is also limited, and he can only report many things layer by layer.

Jiang Shan ate, drank and lived in the temporary base for several days, and slowly began to understand this living base. It can only be said that the high-level leaders of Beijing and Hong Kong have done their best to ensure the basic livelihood of the vast majority of people, and those elusive Beijing-Hong Kong escorts will "throw" more people into this living base every day.
Those faces were either numb, or frightened, or lost souls, and the first two days were almost all kinds of howls and cries, and after a few days, everyone became machines on the assembly line, or integrated.
It is said that now that there is a shortage of rescue manpower, many people who have not yet fallen into despair have chosen to join the rescue team in exchange for supplies, and because of the interruption of communication, everyone is even more worried and has no confidence in what the "outside" world will be.
After all, if the outside world was still normal, there would have been more rescue initiatives a long time ago, and there were also people who did not give up, driving out of the highway, but most of them did not come back, and even now on the highway intersection to the outside world, there are still broken cars that are riddled with holes and erosion.
Many people are afraid, after all, it is better to die than to live, and would rather numbly obey the arrangement and live day after day.
Zhao Ying didn't know where to get Jiang Shan a thick set of science fiction, and Jiang Shan was fascinated by it for a few days, and he didn't even want to go out of the door. It mentions a law of the dark forest, and she thinks that they are likely to be in this forest now.
There was no rescue outside, only deeper darkness.
Ironically, in the failure of electronic products and the failure of the Internet, old paper books and printing have once again become an important tool for everyone's spiritual investment, and in the trading market, some people have begun to exchange gold, after all, gold can not release the fear in their hearts, and immerse themselves in the world of stories, but can find a kind of comfort.
"Where's Ashan?"
"Inside the house."
Zhang Zheng said: "Is this girl crazy? β
Zhao Ying said: "Didn't you play games the same before? β
Zhang Zheng: "...... You're totally towards that girl now, aren't you? β
Zhao Ying raised her eyebrows, picked up a piece of bread on the table, and walked briskly towards Jiang Shan's room. There are also people who bring food, no wonder they don't want to go out.
"Gao Wenwu actually wanted to join the Beijing-Hong Kong Escort Team, but he was left behind by the director."
During the critical period, talents are all competing for talents, especially those who can be civil and martial, which are even more scarce.
Gao Wenwu wanted to join the Jinggang Guard not for treatment or high salary, but purely to help more people, and the consciousness of being a military doctor is high.
"So you're also involved in rescue missions during this time." Jiang Shan chewed the bread.
Zhao Ying said: "Yes, people will go crazy if they stay in the base all day, and now several of our psychiatrists are dying." β
The so-called participation in the action is actually to feel that you are still alive.
Spiritual death brings greater despair than physical death.
"Actually, it's because." Zhao Ying wanted to speak and stopped, "Before, Dr. Wei gathered us all together and went to the cave hotel to investigate, and everyone didn't have hope for that mission, but we came back and brought you back." β
This time it became famous, but I didn't expect this temporary four-person team to be more powerful than the professional guards.
So originally they could be disbanded just after completing the mission, but they were retained until now.
Now that he has returned from the library, Wei Yuan has had a secret conversation with Zheng Suo for a night, and he has completely convinced Zheng Suo.
"We should be given official equipment supplies soon." Zhao Ying said mysteriously.
Usually, the more dangerous the rescue mission, the higher the equipment specifications required, and there is a high probability that there will be no more shabby grass teams like they did before.
I didn't catch up with the update yesterday, and there is still a chapter today
