Sun Mo immediately followed the direction of the gunfire and rushed over.

In the birch forest, there stood a little girl of seven or eight years old, holding a shotgun, hurriedly loading bullets, and not far from her, a radiant ghost who had been injured and was opening its bloody mouth to pounce.

Sun Mo hurriedly put the butt of the rifle on his shoulder and raised the rifle, which was a clean point shot.

Da-da-da-da!

The radghost's head is blown off, and the skull flies out.

Blood splashed on the little girl's face, not only did she not be afraid, but she aimed the loaded shotgun at Sun Mo.

Very discreet!

"Hello, I have no ill will!"

Sun Mo put down his rifle.

"Sun Mo, why are you running so fast?

Yun Yao arrived, panting, holding on to a birch tree and panting.

"Where's your family?"

Sun Mo didn't believe that a child could survive alone in this last days.

"I ......"

The little girl's voice was interrupted by the sound of a gunshot.

A bullet grazed Sun Mo's head and hit the trunk of a tree beside him, and the broken sawdust hit him in the face, which hurt a little.

"Stay away from my granddaughter!"

An old man with gray hair, holding a gun, aimed at Sun Mo, walked out.

"Grandpa, he saved me!"

The girl explained.

"Come here!"

The old man shouted at his granddaughter, then took out ten more bullets and threw them at Sun Mo: "This is a thank you gift, we don't owe each other." ”

"You can keep it!"

Sun Mo shrugged his shoulders and turned to leave.

He saves people purely because of his kindness, not for the sake of return.

Yun Yao followed, if it weren't for this old man's bad attitude, according to her character, she would definitely give the other party a box of bullets, after all, the old man and the child will have a hard time surviving in the last days.

This scene made the hostility in the old man's eyes disappear.

These are two good people.

You must know that in these days, bullets are hard currency, and those who are willing to give up are definitely people with a bottom line.

"I'm sorry, I overreacted just now, do you want to stay and have a light meal?"

The old man invited.

......

The old man's food was all game, and the barbecue skills were also good, which made Yun Yao's mouth full of oil, and she was addicted, and even drank a small bottle of liquor.

"Cool!"

Drinking liquor in the winter, there is nothing more comfortable than this, so Yun Yao, who was dizzy, was a little brainless when she spoke.

"Let's look for 'Tinder' again. ”

Yun Yao said that she had leaked her mouth, and was thinking about how to remedy it, but the old man shook his head.

"Tinder, you're late, it was taken away three years ago. ”

Yun Yao's drunkenness woke up all of a sudden.

"Who?"

Sun Mo asked.

"Grandpa, don't play with them!"

The little girl covered her mouth and snickered, and cut a piece of barbecue meat for Sun Mo with a dagger: "We don't know what the tinder is, but there is a reserve here, but the materials have long been moved, if you look for it, you may be disappointed." ”

"Won't it?"

Yun Yao looked at Sun Mo and showed a bitter gourd face: "The fire is gone, what should I do?"

Seeing that Yun Yao didn't inquire about the reserve and was still struggling with the fire, the old man's eyes flashed with a touch of surprise.

"What is Tinder?"

The little girl's name was Su Ji, and she looked at Yun Yao with big innocent and curious eyes.

Yun Yao is simple-minded, to put it bluntly, she is a little stupid, she thinks that there is nothing to keep secret about this kind of thing, and this pair of grandchildren doesn't look like bad people, so she said it.

"Uncle Zhang is a man with ideals!"

After Su Ji listened, tears flashed in his eyes: "I hope he is fine!"

......

After dinner, Su Ji and Yun Yao went to sleep, but Sun Mo found the old man.

"Aren't you ready for a showdown with me?"

In Sun Mo's hand, he held a pistol with the safety open.

"That's why I hate dealing with smart people!"

The old man pursed his lips and took a sip of wine: "Do you want some?"

"No!"

Sun Mo shook his head.

"Who the hell are you?"

The old man was curious: "You always feel that there is an aura on your body that is incompatible with us. ”

"I am a savior sent from heaven!"

Sun Mo bragged.

The old man felt strange, because people in the last days had to struggle for survival, and a bite of food was likely to cause conflict, and anyone could become an enemy, but Sun Mo was too kind to food and strangers.

"Huh!"

The old man smiled, and then his expression became serious: "I don't know where the fire you found, but I know where Eden is!"

"Eden?"

Sun Mo frowned.

"The power of the country, is something you can't imagine, the three wars, although it broke out suddenly, but the country will have an emergency response plan, Eden, is this kind of paradise, preserving all kinds of technology, genes of various species, plant seeds, and even, there may be a group of people. ”

The old man explained.

"If you know Eden, why don't you go?"

Sun Mo stared at the old man suspiciously.

"In the last days, any survival resources are precious, why should people make an exception for me as an old man?"

The old man laughed at himself.

"Actually, it's because you don't worry about eating and drinking, right?"

Sun Mo sneered.

"In the winter, there is a shortage of materials, but you grandchildren and grandchildren have not lost any weight, and they are also very generous in using materials, if you want to say that there is no fixed source of materials, I don't believe it. ”

"So I said, I hate talking to smart people. ”

The old man sighed and broke the news: "That's right, I have a reserve to myself. ”

"What are you going me to do?"

Sun Mo asked.

"Talking to smart people is worry-free!"

The old man sighed: "My request is very simple, I will give you the real Eden coordinates, but you have to take Su Su with you." ”

"Why me?"

Sun Mo was puzzled.

"I'm sick, and it's estimated that I'll die in a year or two, and when the time comes, Susu will have no one to take care of. ”

The old man's face was lonely, he didn't care, but he was worried about Susu's future.

"Aren't you afraid that after I know the coordinates of Eden, I will abandon Su Su? After all, a child like her is a burden in the last days. ”

Sun Mo's expression was gloomy, this was pretending, because he wanted to find out the true intentions of this old man.

"First of all, judging from that Yun Yao's situation, you are a good person, and besides, you have sufficient equipment and materials, and at a glance, you are the one who has obtained the reserve, and you will not hurt Su Su for my 'savings', after all, it doesn't cost much food to raise her, and besides, I don't have a choice. ”

The old man's time is short, this time it is rare to meet Sun Mo, if there is no showdown, it will be even more difficult to meet a traveler with better conditions next time.

"You're a scholar?"

Sun Mo noticed that there were a lot of books in the old man's outfit, and Su Su did a few math problems before going to bed.

The kind that is very difficult, Sun Mo doesn't understand it anyway.

"Do you know this?"

Sun Mo handed the old man a piece of paper, on which were the coordinates solved by Brother Zhang.

"Yes!"

The old man nodded: "When the nuclear bomb washed the ground, the state gave some encrypted coordinates to different people. ”

To put it bluntly, the more important the person's identity, the more precious the coordinates he knows.

Like this coordinate of Brother Zhang, what he found was a larger reserve than the previous one, which could feed more armed people.

But the old man's coordinates point directly to Eden, because his grandfather is an academician and an indispensable talent.

"Let's go to Eden together, shall we?"

Sun Mo proposed.

"No, I'm still here, and I'm going to wait for someone like you, if it's kind and worth entrusting, to tell them where Eden is. ”

The old man didn't say that he had lived here for thirty years, but there were only seven people worth informing the coordinates, and they were all people who were in the last days and had a glorious human nature.

......

In the following week, the old man took his granddaughter Su Ji and had a good time, and took Su Ji to a dangerous place that he had not allowed to go to before.

Then, it was time to say goodbye.

"Grandpa, why don't you come with us?"

Sugi cried, she was a smart girl, and she had already guessed some possibilities from the change in her grandfather's attitude.

"I'm still going to be a guide here, it's a great job. ”

The old man rubbed the girl's head.

"Don't cry, you should be strong when you grow up!"

"Grandpa!"

Su Ji hugged the old man tightly and was reluctant to leave.

"Let's go, go find Eden, turn yourself into firewood, and rekindle the fire of human civilization as much as possible. ”

The old man pushed his granddaughter away: "Sun Mo, take her away!"

The refueled jeep hit the road, and the old man burst into tears as he watched it disappear at the end of the road.

He didn't go together because he didn't want to see Su Ji die, or be seen by Su Ji dead, it was better to be like this, on a good day, they would both look forward to each other happily alive in their hearts.

......

With supplies and the correct coordinates, Sun Mo drove the jeep and galloped to Eden.

Along the way, I also encountered a lot of trouble, in addition to a large number of radiation ghosts, there are also natives in the last days, blocking the road and robbing.

When a month later, when the gasoline ran out, Sun Mo and the three of them began to move forward on foot, and the situation was even more dangerous, after all, with a seven-year-old girl, it was impossible to run fast.

"Big brother, why don't you leave me behind?"

Looking at the radiation ghost chasing behind him, Su Ji, who was lying on Sun Mo's back, struggled.

Yun Yao slapped Su Ji's head with a slap: "What are you talking about, are Sun Mo and I the kind of cold-blooded people?"

"I don't want everyone to die together, so I move around!"

Sun Mo eventually escaped, but his left arm was bitten by a radiation monster and torn off.

Nine months later, Sun Mo and the three of them came to a hilly area.

In the mountains, they found a cave, entered, walked for another half a day, and finally saw a metal door.

"Is this Eden?"

Sun Mo opened the metal door according to the secret key given by the old man.

The three of them continued to walk inside, but not long after, they were blocked by a door, and the dense symbols on it were unknown to Sun Mo.

"It's over!"

Sun Mo had a headache, he definitely couldn't untie this kind of thing, so he looked at Su Ji: "Did your grandfather tell you how to open this door?"

Sugi shook her head.

Ay!

Sun Mo sighed, he actually guessed that Su Ji had no choice.

He used to think that in order not to abandon Su Ji, the old man would definitely give her a heavyweight price that he could not abandon him at a critical juncture, but along the way, the three of them established a deep relationship, and Su Ji even wanted to give up his life for Sun Mo and Yun Yao.

If she had the key, she would have said it earlier.

"No, there must be something I overlooked!"

Sun Mo pondered, the old man must have put some information in a place he hadn't noticed, otherwise what was the use of an Eden that couldn't get in?
