It is a mixture of desert and oasis, with both lush green woods and vast desert scenery.
It's less than ten kilometers away from here.
Tengger Desert.
On the cracked national highway, a dusty vehicle sped past.
The car was filled with yellow sand and dust, which kept falling as the car vibrated.
A gust of sand came out and slapped on the windshield, making a crackling sound.
Crunch!
The vehicle stopped suddenly.
The huge recoil force caused everyone in the car to jump forward due to the sudden stop of the vehicle, and the heads of several people in the back seat directly hit the back of the seat in front.
"Hiss! Wang An, why are you driving!" Tian Yunxiao grinned and rubbed his somewhat red forehead, and a small bump appeared vaguely on his forehead.
Wang An turned his head and said apologetically:
"Sorry, it's not a problem with my operation, it's a problem with the car..."
Everyone in the car sighed inwardly when they heard this.
Something went wrong again.
Along the way, we went through a lot of hardships and the car had many problems.
After they left the northern border, they first went to Meng Province, but there were too many animal zombies there, so they had to avoid them.
Then we continued walking west and saw densely packed zombies on the banks of the Yellow River.
Going all the way west, they just want to find a place where there are not so many zombies.
Their plan was to head to the northwest, which is a vast area with sparsely populated areas. Although the natural conditions are harsh, there are few people and relatively few zombies.
And there is another important reason, that is, it is relatively far from the northern border and Oil City.
They were afraid that people from Oil City would find them.
Because the destruction of the Northern Territory gave them a huge psychological shadow, they no longer have the courage to revenge against the people of Oil City and just want to escape far away.
inside the car.
Yuan Zhi rubbed his wrinkled eyebrows and said feebly:
"Then go down and check it out and fix it as soon as possible. We are running out of water, so we have to find a place to replenish it quickly."
Yuan Ming, who was sitting at the back of the car, looked at the barrel of fuel in the trunk and picked it up with his hands.
He said with a heavy expression:
"There's not much fuel left..."
Kaka——
Yuan Li, who was sitting in the passenger seat, put on a mask and hat, rubbed his hands, opened the car door, and walked out.
Huhu——
The wind and sand howled by, blowing him into disgrace.
boom!
He immediately closed the car door to prevent the wind and sand from blowing into the car.
The sun was shining brightly, the cracked national highway and the sunken pits were filled with wind-blown sand.
Only patches of black asphalt road surface were exposed, while the rest was covered by wind and sand.
Yuan Li licked his chapped lips, walked straight to the back of the car, and took out the car repair tools from the trunk.
swish swish——
There was a sound of footsteps coming from the opposite side. Yuan Li looked up and saw that it was Wang An.
Wang An, like him, wrapped his head in a scarf to block the wind and sand.
"There is still fuel in the fuel tank. It may be a problem with the engine or the oil pump..." Wang An said to Yuan Li.
Yuan Li nodded, took out the repair tools, walked to the car, and opened the roof cover.
The two of them got close to each other, and after seeing the situation inside, they felt it was extremely difficult.
Yuan Li said to Wang An:
"You come and fix it. I just want to change the tire. That tire probably won't last long. It's so bumpy on the road that I feel like vomiting."
As he spoke, he put the tools in his hands on the roof of the car and walked toward the back.
Wang An looked at the white gas engine and felt very headache.
Need to repair again...
"Brother Li, what's wrong with the car?" Tian Yunxiao opened the car window, stuck his head out and asked Yuan Li.
Yuan Li sighed and said: "It's still an engine problem, it's still an old problem, it's okay.
It can be done within an hour.”
"Yunxiao, please come down and help me change the tire. There is a big problem with the tire at the back."
"oh."
Tian Yunxiao got out of the car reluctantly.
The sky is full of wind and sand. If you don't wear a mask, just open your mouth and your mouth will be filled with sand.
He opened the trunk again, took out the jack and handed it to Tian Yunxiao, then closed the trunk and removed a tire from the suspension.
In addition to them, Ma Song and Yuan Ming who were in the car also walked out of the car.
Holding guns in hand, they stood guard all around to prevent Wang An and the others from being attacked by zombies when they were repairing the car.
Ma Song took off a water bottle from his waist and poured a little water into his mouth against the wind.
After being moisturized by water, his complexion improved significantly.
Looking at the wind and sand in the sky, his eyes showed a little confusion.
Now there are only six of them left in the Northern Federation.
But I want to go to the northwest, but now I am trapped in this desert.
Although there was a map, they did not know where they were and had no location. They could only rely on the terrain and surrounding buildings to identify it.
It has been more than four years since the end of the world, we have experienced so many natural disasters, and many places have changed drastically.
So along the way, they got sidetracked several times.
The destination is Lan City. Check the situation when you get there. If there are still a lot of zombies, continue walking northwest.
The worst case scenario is walking all the way to Yishi.
But now, after they came out of Mongolia Province, they fell into the Tengger Desert.
damn it!
Thinking of this, Ma Song became a little angry.
It's all the fault of Tian Yunxiao, who swore that he had been here before, and the governor finally believed him once.
Sure enough, dogs can’t change their habit of eating shit. If you believe him, you’re still on the wrong path!
I don't know where they are now...
But the first priority is to leave the desert first.
Zombies love water, so it is difficult to see zombies in the desert.
While they were repairing the vehicle, no zombies appeared.
Time passed minute by minute.
One hour later.
Wang An wiped his sweat, then walked to the driving position and tried to start the vehicle.
Boom boom boom!
As the vehicle started, a smile appeared on Wang An's face, and he finally got it done.
He didn't turn off the engine, quickly got out of the car, closed the roof cover, packed up the tools and put them back in the trunk.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The tires have also been changed.
Everyone returned to the car, and the vehicle slowly drove forward.
They didn't know where the road went, and the blue signs on the road were blown away by the strong wind.
But the road always ends.
After driving like this for about half an hour, they saw some trees and some low houses slowly appearing on the roadside.
"Governor, we should be out of the desert!" Wang An excitedly said to Yuan Zhi behind him.
Yuan Zhi's face improved a lot when he heard the good news.
He forced himself to sit up straight, nodded and said, "Okay, let's find a place with a water source ahead to replenish the water."
As vehicles drive, there are more and more greens on both sides of the road.
Finally arrived at a small town.
The town is not large, with only one main road in the center, and some shops and dilapidated doors on both sides.
There is a sign on the roadside that says add water and refuel. The sign is full of dust.
But the handwriting can still be roughly read clearly.
Crunch——
The vehicle stopped.
Everyone opened the car doors and looked around, but found no trace of humans or zombies.
Wang An quickly wiped the dust off the signboard and saw the word Zhongshi.
He said to the people behind him: "We have arrived at Central City."
Ma Song nodded and said, "If we go further, we should be able to reach Lanshi."
Tian Yunxiao said with a little pride:
"I told you I knew the way. Look, we're almost there!"
Ma Song was too lazy to pay attention to him.
If they hadn't taken a detour, they would have arrived here long ago, and now they feel embarrassed to show off.
You are really kind-skinned to a certain extent.
Yuan Luo walked to the well and pressed the water pump above.
No effect.
If the water pump has no power, it will naturally not be able to function.
I don't know if there is any water in it...
Yuan Luo thought secretly in his heart.
then.
He moved the iron plate on the well cover and threw the bucket down.
Wow——
The iron bucket fell into the water and made a sound.
"There's still water!" Yuan Luo shouted excitedly to everyone.
"Here, add water!" Wang An held the pipe and threw it into the well.
There was electricity in the car and they started pumping water.
As the water was pumped up little by little, it filled the water tank in the car, and then they filled all the containers in the car that could hold water.
Wang An put the water pipe back into the car.
Looking around, he saw Tian Yunxiao running to the gas station next to him.
So he shouted: "Is there any more oil?"
Tian Yunxiao looked at the black rusty gas tank, shook it vigorously, and then casually dropped the gas gun in his hand on the ground.
"No."
At this moment, a roar of vehicles came from the road behind.
"Someone!"
"Get in the car quickly."
Ma Song, who had been on alert, heard the roar of the vehicle and quickly shouted to everyone.
Tian Yunxiao and Yuan Luo quickly ran towards the car.
Having lived in the apocalypse for so many years, they deeply understand that this is a world where the weak eat the strong.
If you meet a stranger, you must avoid him if you don’t know the other person’s details.
Because after encountering them, there will basically be a scramble for supplies.
No supplies?
In the eyes of the other party, you are just material!
Everyone hurried to the car to get in and leave.
But at this moment, they saw two cars driving towards them in their field of vision.
boom!
There were two cars behind, and a man in one of the pickup trucks fired at them.
"Oh shit!"
Tian Yunxiao saw the car behind him shooting, so he angrily shot at the people behind him.
Bang bang bang bang!
Without any warning or communication with each other, the gun battle started directly.
"No, those people also have guns." A man in the pickup truck exclaimed.
"Call for help, these people can't run away." The man in the driving position shouted to the people on the truck bed.
Bang bang!
Pong!
The car body took several shots.
"Why are you still standing there! Get in the car quickly!" Ma Song saw Wang An and Tian Yunxiao still outside the car and shouted quickly.
Wang An fired several more shots in the back, and one bullet hit the man on the roof of the pickup truck.
thump!
The man on the roof of the pickup truck fell straight onto the bed.
"Bozi!" After seeing the fallen man, the man next to him quickly stepped forward to check.
The fallen man was shot in the head and died.
"Call for rescue. We encountered a group of strange enemies in Tengge Town. Come and provide support."
....
The other side.
After Wang An ran into the car, Ma Song, who was sitting in the driving position, quickly started the car.
He thought they were all on board.
The vehicle moves slowly.
Tian Yunxiao had been hiding behind the gas station because he was afraid that the other party's bullet would hit him.
When they saw Ma Song and the others driving away, their faces were filled with disbelief.
"Hey! I haven't gotten in the car yet!"
As he said that, he didn't care about the bullets on the other side and rushed towards the vehicle.
But how can a person outrun a car?
In desperation, he could only watch the vehicle drive further and further away.
boom!
When Tian Yunxiao was running, a bullet from behind hit his ankle.
thump!
Tian Yunxiao fell forward and looked at the dust kicked up by the car driven by Ma Song and others.
There was no time to feel the pain, so he hurriedly looked behind him.
He saw two pickup trucks behind him, only thirty meters away from him.
He quickly turned around and shouted to Ma Song and their car:
"I'm riding a horse and haven't even gotten on the carriage yet! Damn!"
"I haven't gotten in the car yet!!!!"
Wails.
Two pickup trucks stopped.
A burly, bald man jumped out of the truck.
He walked up to Tian Yunxiao aggressively.
Without saying anything, he directly gave Tian Yunxiao a big sinus.
Snapped!
Tian Yunxiao held a gun and tried to resist, but another person put a gun to his head.
The burly man snatched away Tian Yunxiao's gun.
Open the bow left and right.
Bang bang bang bang!
"Don't kill me, don't kill me!" Tian Yunxiao covered his face and wailed.
Just when Tian Yunxiao was beaten until his head was covered with blood, a short man got out of the car, less than 1.5 meters tall.
It just looks very impressive.
"Don't kill him, wait a minute, Xiaolang." The short man said.
"But they killed Bo Ge!" the burly man said angrily.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The short man frowned and continued:
"I know, so we have to keep him alive. The gang has run away. We have to find out where they are going from his mouth!"
"Hmph!" The burly man stood up and kicked Tian Yunxiao hard in the chest.
Phew!
Tian Yunxiao spurted blood from his mouth, his eyes were swollen, and he could not see clearly the people around him.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me!" Tian Yunxiao still did not forget to beg for mercy.
The little man squatted down and said slowly:
"Who are you?"
Tian Yunxiao was used to joking with Yuan Luo and the others, so he habitually replied:
"man."
The corner of the little man's mouth twitched. He never expected that this man would give such an answer.
Granny Cao!
After Tian Yunxiao finished speaking, he regretted it and quickly changed his words:
"No, I'm joking..."
The short man stood up and said to the burly man next to him who was still angry: "Xiao Lang, you continue to beat him, and remember to give me a breath."
"Humph!" The tall man twisted his neck and walked over.
"No! I said..."
Boom!
The slap from the burly man made Tian Yunxiao's mouth bleed.
....
The other side.
Ma Song, who left in a hurry, drove his vehicle and fled the town as quickly as possible.
Wang An and Yuan Luo looked back from time to time.
"Have you caught up?" Ma Song asked nervously.
The rearview mirror is covered in dust and can't be seen at all.
"No." Wang An said.
Huhu——
Everyone in the car suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yunxiao, I better not listen to you next time." Ma Song drove the car, focusing on the steering wheel, and said with lingering fear.
No one answered.
Wang An glanced at the car with some anxiety and counted one, two, three, four, five.
One, two, three, four, five.
One person is missing.
Yuan Zhi also understood at this time and quickly asked: "Where is Yunxiao?"
Quiet.
No one answered his words.
for a long time.
Wang Ancai covered his forehead and said helplessly: "He... doesn't seem to have gotten in the car."
Ah this...
"Are we going back?" Yuan Luo looked at Yuan Zhi's face and asked.
