Chapter 307: Abandoned Highway on the Outskirts of the City
Suicide? This is like something that Bai Jin would do.
Zhang Zheng hurriedly turned on the flashlight and shone down towards the hanging ladder, there was nothing on the hanging ladder, the cave wall was narrow, and he didn't see Bai Jin's shadow. So he couldn't have pretended to fall and clinging around the cave walls. "But I didn't hear the sound of landing......
It's weird, it's too weird to be believed.
"At this height, will you fall to your death?" Zhao Ying put down the gun she had been holding in a dejected manner, and at this time her expression seemed to have returned to her usual Zhao Ying.
He just said goodbye, Dr. Wei.
Farewell.
Why say goodbye.
"I don't believe he will seek death......" Zhang Zheng muttered, this kind of demon is impossible to seek death.
That is to escape.
Bai Jin must have known about other exits in this cave, and he could completely escape from other exits.
"It must be like this." Zhang Zheng was talking to himself, and he didn't know who he was trying to convince.
Zhao Ying was silent for a moment: "Do you want to go down and check?" In such a short period of time, even if Bai Jin wanted to escape, he would definitely not be able to escape far, and they still had a chance. This demon should not be spared.
"Don't go any further." Wei Yuan's voice came from behind the two of them.
Zhang Zheng and Zhao Ying both immediately looked back at him. "Dr. Wei?"
Wei Yuan said in a deep voice, "We need to get out of here as soon as possible, don't forget, Ah Shan is still unconscious."
The two of them suddenly stopped squeaking.
Indeed, Jiang Shan's safety is more important now.
But they didn't even know how to report this experience, and there was no one left except the four of them?
Even Bai Jin ran away, and the rhetoric they could have had was almost gone because of Bai Jin's disappearance.
Zhang Zheng looked at Wei Yuan: "What will you think of us when you go back to the base like this?"
Wei Yuan didn't answer this question, and said, "Pull the hanging ladder up and find a way to seal this hole first." It's too dangerous to leave the hole and ladder here, whether it's someone outside who accidentally finds it, or if the "thing" inside can go up the ladder.
"I understand the old Wei ......."
The hanging ladder was originally hung on the entrance of the hole, and there were iron nails nailed to the ground on both sides, Zhang Zheng pulled out the nails hard, and pulled the suspension ladder up with Zhao Ying. Even if Bai Jin was still at the bottom of the cave, at least it would be impossible to climb up this hole again.
I couldn't find anything next to it, only some gravel, and finally found two big stones from the side of the road, Zhao Ying and Zhang Zheng pushed the stones over, just blocking the hole, but there were still some gaps left, and people with a heart could still find this hole.
But there is no better way to do it now, they can only go so far.
"Did you notice where this is?" Wei Yuan just swept around the road conditions.
Zhao Ying turned her head: "I seem to know here......
In fact, the surrounding scene has long been unrecognizable, corroded to the point of unrecognizable asphalt and dusty pavement. But there is an ancient tree with a strange shape, which seems to have been split in half by lightning from the middle, and then the two petals that were split have all grown branches, and the two sides still share a root, and the scene is like two towering ancient trees growing together.
"The tree." A map automatically appeared in Zhao Ying's mind, "We are now standing on the suburban road."
They are already close to the city, and they can drive directly into the city along this road.
"If we're really in the city center, it should be cold before we get back to base." They've really come so far down there.
Zhang Zheng said, "Are we really going to walk back to the base, I feel that the two legs are going to be scrapped now."
Walking on two legs, they might also die halfway through. The main thing is that Jiang Shan is in a coma now, and she still needs someone to carry her.
Zhao Ying looked around, as if trying to identify the direction: "In my memory, there seems to be a gas station near here. We might as well look and see if we have any supplies."
Generally, there will be a commissary at a gas station, and if you can still find a little material inside, you will be lucky, and there will be a water source and
Food.
Zhao Ying looked at Wei Yuan and Zhang Zheng, obviously asking for advice.
There could not have been a more constructive opinion in this case, and Wei Yuan's mental state did not seem to be good, and he expressed his acquiescence.
Zhang Zheng also spread his hands, took the initiative to go to the ground and picked up Jiang Shan, and motioned for Zhao Ying to start leading the way.
Zhao Ying was still unconsciously carrying the gun in her hand, she glanced down, closed the safety bolt again, and slowly put it in her pocket.
The four of them began to move in the direction of the gas station described by Zhao Ying.
Gas station, trance and friendly words, the place where the modern social animals who used to be eight in the morning need to deal with each other every three or five times, and they struggle non-stop for a liter of fuel money.
Zhang Zheng, who was silently carrying Jiang Shan's back, was one of them. The institute gives their drivers a lot of fuel subsidies every month, and Zhang Zheng will dig out his mind to calculate the most economical way to refuel, and save a pack of cigarettes from the oil supplement.
It used to be the most ordinary happiness.
After walking some distance, they saw an old pickup truck parked on the side of the road, "Do you think this car can still be driven?" Zhang Zheng's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but want to open the door to check.
As a result, as soon as he touched the steering wheel, the steering wheel fell to the driver's seat without giving face.
Zhang Zheng: "......" d, I know that I don't have such good luck.
"If these cars can still be driven, the owner will have already left." Zhao Ying said. Where can it be their turn to pick up.
Along the way, they also saw more abandoned cars on the road. There are many sleek and sleek vehicles that were the hottest new vehicles a year ago, capable of autonomous driving, unmanned navigation, and even the ability to change their appearance. Similar to Batman's Batmobile.
The more cars like this now, the faster they are eroded.
Ninety percent of the cars that are discarded on the side of the road are such tech cars.
The four of them became more and more silent, not only because these luxury cars, which were once worth thousands of dollars, are now scrap metal, but if the erosion was a natural disaster, we once again confirmed that all human ingenuity is a joke in the face of nature.
They finally saw the gas station that Zhao Ying said.
"This station...... It's very well preserved." Zhang Zheng was surprised.
The overall appearance of the building is still there, the doors and windows are complete, and even the roller shutter doors are still hanging on it.
Zhao Ying said before that there was a gas station just to try her luck, but she didn't expect it to be so complete, looking at this situation, the possibility of having supplies in it has greatly increased.
"Go in and have a look."
Zhang Zheng couldn't wait anymore with Jiang Shan on his back, so he hurriedly walked over. The three mailboxes placed outside have been rusted and must not be used anymore, Zhao Ying behind him said: "I remember that this gas station has a very long history, and after the popularization of new energy vehicles, there are very few oil trucks."
In the past, there was a gas station almost 100 meters away, but many of them have been dismantled and replaced with electric piles or energy drive stations.
Zhang Zheng had already rushed into the half-open roller shutter door, "The older it is, the longer it lasts, Amen."
