Chapter 18: Blood Debt and Blood Repayment

Because of Zhuo Mingyuan's sudden madness, the dinner he promised Ning Zhe and others fell through. For refugees like Ning Zhe, they were reluctant to spend dozens or hundreds of dollars on a restaurant. In the end, each person only had

I bought two bean cakes and left the restaurant.

Zhuo Mingyuan's death did not affect Ning Zhe's mood. He did not covet Zhuo Mingyuan's money and helped him find a way to survive. After all, there were too many such tragic experiences in the refugee areas, even if

No matter how soft-hearted a person is, he will gradually become hard-hearted.

On the contrary, Fatty Li was very sympathetic to Zhuo Mingyuan's experience, and even shed tears after listening to Lin Xun's story about Zhuo Mingyuan.

"Buzz!"

As soon as the three of them walked out of the restaurant, they heard the roar of the engine. Looking sideways, they saw smoke and dust billowing on the dirt road in the distance. A column of horses quickly rushed towards the city gate, causing the surrounding pedestrians to dodge. The four steel frames behind them

Among the cars, there was a cross erected at the rear of one, with a refugee wearing a black hood tied to it.

"Boom!"

As the convoy approached, the huge gate of the fortress slowly rose. Two teams of guards came out of the city and lined up to maintain public order. The convoy and horse team quickly passed through and disappeared into the dark city gate tunnel.

"Brother, am I reading that right? The people tied up in that car just now are... refugees?" Lin Xun looked at the guards retreating into the city and the slowly falling city gate: "What did you say those people committed?

The crime was actually worth having the guards drive out to arrest them, and they were also taken to the city? This is the first time in my life that I have seen refugees being held tightly in a fortress! In the past, for whatever crimes they committed, weren't they always executed directly outside the city?

?”

"So many soldiers came out just to arrest a refugee. There have been more and more strange things happening in the town recently." Ning Zhe narrowed his eyes, which was also incredible.

"Brother Zhe, are those big guys who just passed by the legendary hedgehog cars?" Fatty Li was deeply shocked by the four hedgehog cars at this moment. He used to live in a refugee village and usually saw people riding horses.

The mercenaries walked around and saw the real guard for the first time: "I heard that this kind of car is made of iron, but I didn't expect it to run so fast! But the smell of rust is too strong!"

"What you smell is not the smell of rust, but the smell of blood." Ning Zhe corrected him. He also smelled a rust-like smell in the air, and his eyes became more curious. Among those soldiers before, only one person was captured.

But why does it have such a strong smell of blood?

What exactly did they experience?

"Boom! Boom!"

The time bell rang in the city, and Lin Xun glanced at the orange light that was about to disappear on the horizon: "Brother, the sun is setting, and the curfew is almost here."

"Well, let's go!" Ning Zhe took the lead. When he reached the middle of the road, he discovered that there was a long string of dripping blood on the ground where the hedgehog car just passed, extending to the city gate.



Night is full of dangers for refugees, but night can also bring benefits to many people.

There are many gates around the fortress. In addition to the large gates that lead directly to the inner city, there are also many small fence gates. These gates are for workers. The workers in the outer city industrial zone work in shifts 24 hours a day.

There are three and four shifts, so even late at night, there are people walking through those city gates.

Many refugees dream of owning a house of their own in a market town, because in this way, they can shorten their commute to and from get off work. Around Fortress No. 87, every year, at least four people are attacked by wild beasts or disappear after working the night shift. digits or more.

As the sky darkened, a red lantern rose at the entrance of a large courtyard near the fortress's labor passage, with a black square on top of the lantern.

This is the symbol of the Black Flag Gang. In market towns, all yards with such lanterns are the Black Flag Gang's brothels. Workers can choose a woman here as long as they spend five yuan or two glasses of water.

Or men, vent their own desires.

In the chaotic wasteland, many orders have been reshaped. The villains are not only men, but also women. The Black Flag Gang has the best business at the south gate because there is a textile factory there with only female workers.

Women spend money to find men, but they are more generous than male workers.

"Bang!"

A sound of banging on the table spread in the courtyard of the brothel. In the office inside the courtyard, Xiao Qi, the boss of the Black Flag Gang, looked at the young people in front of him angrily: "What did you guys say? Something happened to my brother?"

"

"Brother Qi, we also found out that Xiaomeng didn't come back at night, so we sent people out to look for him, and found the bodies of him and several followers in an alley." A man opposite Xiao Qi lowered his head and didn't dare to express his anger.

asthma.

Although Xiao Qi is only twenty-three years old this year, he is the well-deserved eldest brother of their group. Not only because of his insidious character, but also because of his connections within the fortress. Someone in the market town also organized a group of people and wanted to

After competing with him for the prostitution business, the law enforcement team from the outer city found him on a random charge and hanged him from a dead tree in the center of the square.

"Damn it! In this town! Someone actually dares to attack my people! Give you two hours, you must find out the murderer of my brother! I will make him pay with blood!" Xiao Qi's chest heaved,

He looked sharply at the young man who came to report: "Otherwise, your mother and your sister will pick up the guests tonight!"

"Brother Qi! Calm down! I'll check right away!" The young man agreed with a numb scalp, turned around and ran out of the room. He knew very well that what came out of Xiao Qi's mouth was definitely not alarmist.

Half an hour later, the young man rushed to the alley where Xiao Meng's accident happened, kicked open the rotten plastic door panel of a house, and stepped into the room.

"ah!"

A woman's scream was heard along with the sound of the door being kicked.

"brush!"

The light of the lantern lit up in the room, and the young man looked at a middle-aged couple in the room: "We are from the Black Flag Gang! I just want to ask here, who did it to the young man who died in the alley today?"

"

"I, I don't know! I got off work after dark!" The middle-aged man breathed rapidly when he heard the young man announcing his identity.

There are no laws in the refugee areas, so refugee villages and market towns are formed. To put it bluntly, they are a group of people hugging each other for warmth. In order to maintain their own jobs, the security chief of the market town will also be symbolically responsible for public security.

But no one dares to control strong men like Ning Zhe and the Black Flag Gang.

"I haven't even said when the person died, and you hit him first, and you don't know anything about it?" The young man waved his fingers slightly: "Hit him until he tells me!"

“Bang bang bang!”

Several young people nearby rushed forward, and the middle-aged man began to wail miserably.

This situation happened in almost every house in the alley, and there were screams and curses.

"Don't fight! Stop fighting! I really don't know anything!" The middle-aged man received a few punches and his nose was bleeding. He held his head and kept pleading.

"hiss!"

The young man raised the lantern held by a wooden stick in his hand and lit the cigarette in his mouth, indifferent to the middle-aged plea.

"Stop fighting! If you continue to fight, someone will die! I say! I say!" The woman next to her saw the miserable condition of her husband and said with tears on her face: "When I went out to buy things before, I saw Ning Zhe coming from here.

I walked out, and when I returned to the alley, I saw dead people here!"

"Ning Zhe? Is that the Sangmenxing in the east?" The young man looked at the woman displeased: "Why didn't you say anything just now?"
