After Li Yu and his party filled up the diesel, they sped along and got closer and closer to the Da Zhangshu Base.
In this hot weather, if you appear outside the car or outdoors, it won't take long before your whole body will be soaked with sweat.
Li Yu got into the Unimog car, sat on the edge of the window, looked at the withered vegetation on the roadside due to the scorching sun, and opened the bulletproof glass.
A wave of heat rushed towards me.
It's past two o'clock in the afternoon and the temperature has not dropped yet.
Li Yu said to a team member in the car: "Look what the temperature is now?"
This team member was formerly affiliated with Lao Qin, named Yu Wei.
Yu Wei put the thermometer outside the car for a few minutes.
Then he took it in again, looked at the temperature displayed on the thermometer, and said with some stuttering: "The temperature outside the car is 46 degrees!"
46 degrees?!
It seems that the weather temperature has been rising rapidly recently, and it was even hotter at noon than now.
A trace of thought flashed in Li Yu's eyes, recalling the experience before his rebirth, and sighed in his heart: It seems that it is about to explode.
So he said to Yang Tianlong: "How long will it take to get to the base?"
Yang Tianlong said: "At the speed of the Unimog, we can return before 7pm tonight. As for the loader, it will be 10pm."
Li Yu looked at the loader behind the car, which was driving slowly.
They are one piece and cannot leave the loader behind.
Therefore, the fastest driving speed of the fleet is maintained at around 40 kilometers.
For the Unimog, this was nothing short of a slowdown, but there was nothing that could be done about it. It was impossible for them to return first and let the people on the installation machine come back later.
It seems that we can't go back today and can only wait until tomorrow.
So Li Yu said to Yang Tianlong: "Let's drive for another two hours, find a place to stay in front, rest early today, and return to the base early tomorrow morning."
Yang Tianlong couldn't help but said: "Actually, maybe we have enough firepower now, so we can take more risks by walking around at night?"
"No." Li Yu replied without thinking, "It's not like you haven't seen the horrors at night. You'd rather arrive late than take risks. These zombies are no joke."
Yang Tianlong saw that Li Yu was determined, so he stopped trying to persuade him.
And this is indeed the case, although now during the day, zombies are rarely encountered on the road, and the zombies encountered are relatively weak.
But at night, zombies all come out of dark corners, and their overall condition is much stronger than during the day.
Li Yu's mind was heavy. According to his memory from his previous life, the world's temperature would reach a peak in mid-August this year, causing numerous volcanic eruptions around the world. After the volcanic eruption, the entire world would plunge into darkness.
Then came the rapid drop in temperature and acid rain.
Thick volcanic ash and acid rain will greatly affect the cultivation of crops.
What's even more terrifying is that in this endless dark environment, the zombie riots become more intense.
Volcanic ash was flying all over the sky, falling layer by layer on the ground.
The whole world will be in darkness.
However, fortunately, the Da Zhangshu base where they were located was no longer in a volcanic and earthquake zone. Apart from the darkening of the sky and subsequent acid rain, the impact was not that huge.
There are volcanoes along the eastern coast, the west, including the northeastern region, which have a greater impact.
The magma in the volcano gushes out from the fire. For the areas near the volcano, this is the real doomsday.
He remembered that after the volcanic eruption in the previous life, many animals died, but he was lucky to escape because he found a relatively stable underground air raid shelter.
In this life, he is not just himself, he also leads a group of people.
Time is already very tight.
Li Yu felt a little anxious, it was July 10th now.
There is still a little more than a month left before the global volcanic eruption.
He actually advocated building some underground planting bases for this reason.
After the volcano erupted, there was no sunlight at all. Without sunlight, crops could not carry out photosynthesis and could not survive.
In addition, the acid rain that falls also has a great impact on crops.
The progress must be accelerated. Li Yu thought about the current progress in the base.
The dozens of acres of crops in the base will not be harvested until early next month. The crops must be harvested before the volcano erupts and affects them.
As for the Western Conference?
Although Li Yu is a little worried. As long as the Western Alliance does not come to cause trouble within this month, then in the future, there should be no energy to come to them in a short period of time.
However, no one in the convoy knew about all this.
And he couldn't tell anyone.
He doesn't have much need to tell others. At the moment, he is in a dominant position in the base. He has veto and affirmative power on many decisions.
The sun gradually moves from east to west.
A little bit westward.
They finally passed through Nanling and entered the boundaries of Gan City.
It's just that Gan City is very large and is far away from the Da Zhangshu base. If the speed of the loader is used, it will take them four or five hours to get there.
The sun was setting in the west, and Lao Luo and others in the car in front were already looking for a place to stay tonight.
.......
at the same time.
Xincheng.
The third uncle looked at the setting sun and the team in front, with a hint of coldness in his eyes. When Xiao Jun and the others left, they had clearly reached a friendly agreement with him.
However, not long after he and Lao Qin followed them to Chengzizhou, this group of people, many of them, returned here again.
What do they want to do?
........
Xiao Jun and others watched the sun set in the west, but did not see any survivors of Xincheng.
Feeling a little anxious, he had a chat with the vice-captain Zhou Tian and others in the car, and everyone thought they could go to Li Yu and others to give it a try.
At present, they have been forced to leave Chengzizhoutou without a place to stay.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The most important thing is that they lost their goal.
In this difficult apocalypse, losing the meaning of life is more terrifying than anything else.
Xiao Jun's idea is that since Ma Di is the real scientific researcher at Da Zhangshu Base, then just find Ma Di and protect him.
This is what they have been doing for more than a year in the apocalypse, to protect the people who can truly end this apocalypse.
However, they also considered that Ma Di has now joined the Da Zhangshu Base, and whether to join the Da Zhangshu Base is also the direction they are considering.
However, Li Yu only told them the name of the base at the beginning, but did not tell them the specific location.
Although there are many survivors in Xin City who know about the Da Zhangshu Base, in this thrilling apocalypse.
There are very few survivors.
And no one who has lived in the apocalypse for more than a year is a fool.
Unless they are familiar with each other, they will be more cautious when facing strangers than when dealing with zombies.
In fact, even people who are familiar with each other are wary in their hearts.
Therefore, after Xiao Jun and the others entered Xin City, they did not meet anyone.
He knew that it was not that there was no survivor in this city. Perhaps at this time, there were survivors in some corner watching them.
But they won't come out.
After hesitating in his heart for a moment, Xiao Jun looked at the setting sun, stood in Xincheng, and shouted to the tall buildings around him:
"I want to go to Da Zhangshu Base. I know Li Yu, the person in charge of Da Zhangshu Base. I have important information to tell him. Is there anyone who can take me there?"
The sound was so loud that it shook the birds nesting on the tall buildings.
Quiet, not a sound.
Xiao Jun was unwilling to give in and said to Huang Zheng:
"Drive around and see if you can attract one or two people to come out."
Huang Zheng looked at the sunset and said to Xiao Jun:
"Brother Jun, we can only stay in this city for 50 minutes at most before the sun goes down.
There are too many of us, and if we don’t find a suitable camping spot when night comes, it will be very dangerous tonight.”
Xiao Jun hesitated for a moment and said to deputy captain Zhou Tian:
"On Sunday, you take a group of people and look for a camp site tonight in the suburbs. I will take the people here and try again.
We will meet later at the first crossing just after entering the city, and we will meet there then."
Zhou Tian nodded and said in a muffled voice to the people around him: "You guys, follow me."
He took two cars and drove towards the countryside.
In the last days, if there are less than ten people, you can choose a hidden location in the city and hide for a night.
But if the population exceeds 10 people, the smell of human bodies will gather, which will attract zombies looking for it.
The experience in the apocalypse tells them that the best choice is on the edge of the city, five kilometers away.
You can go to the city to search for supplies during the day, and return to the countryside at night, where there are fewer zombies.
.........
The third uncle also heard what Xiao Jun said, and his heart moved slightly.
Lao Qin next to him said:
"Captain, I heard he wants to come to us. Why don't we show up and go directly to them to see what they want to do."
The third uncle looked at Xiao Jun and others, driving the vehicle and shouting in both directions, feeling a little irritated.
Even if something happens, there is no need to shout in such a big way.
He said to Lao Qin:
"In this way, you still have dozens of minutes before dark, enough for you to return to the base. You can go back and tell Li Hongda and the others about this. I will watch them from here first."
Lao Qin thought for a while and said to his third uncle:
"Captain, it's too dangerous for you to follow me alone at night. Why don't you inform me and I'll stay?"
Third Uncle was about to ask Lao Qin to obey his order.
Suddenly, he remembered that he was in Xincheng.
This place is their territory.
Not to mention, basically, the survivors around Xincheng have cooperated with the Da Zhangshu Base.
But there are more than a hundred non-staff personnel.
Moreover, they also have temporary strongholds in the Da Zhangshu base, and stable stations in the suburbs.
The third uncle slapped his head and cursed: "I have such a stupid brain."
Lao Qin didn't react and asked, "What's going on?"
When the third uncle saw Lao Qin like this, he remembered that Lao Qin had only joined the Da Zhangshu Base not long ago, and he didn't know much about Da Zhangshu Base's control over Xin City.
So he said: "This is in Xincheng. On our side, there will be people who take turns to stay here to inquire about news and see if any strangers appear here.
Perhaps, in a certain corner, there are people from us who are also looking at Xiao Jun and the others."
Lao Qin's eyes widened and he said with emotion: "Awesome."
The third uncle took out the walkie-talkie from his backpack, adjusted it to a special channel, and then squatted down from the wall.
"Study hard. Call, call. This is Li Hongqian of Da Zhangshu Base. Is there any brother or sister in Xin City who has received a reply?"
As the third uncle said, he also carried the code of "study hard".
People from several directions heard it.
After the third uncle finished speaking, his face was a little speechless. He didn't understand why Li Yu used this as a password.
.....
On a building less than 200 meters away from the third uncle, Zhu Zhu, who was on duty in Xincheng this week, was a member of the team that had been following He Chao, collecting supplies and inquiring about information.
Zhu Zhu heard the voice on the intercom. Not only him, but the other two people around him also heard it.
Several people confirmed that it was Uncle San's voice and that the password was correct.
...
There is a window on the second floor of a building diagonally opposite Uncle San's. The window is closed and the curtains are drawn. On the wall outside the window, the originally white wall has peeled off, revealing the red color inside.
Brick, this location is very good. Downstairs is Xinhua Bookstore, which is closed.
There is an iron fence and an aluminum alloy sliding door. But there is a back door in the Xinhua Bookstore. It is small and inconspicuous at the corner. It is also locked from the inside.
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading! Seven or eight people were squatting inside. The leader Zuo Ruxue stared at the walkie-talkie and gradually increased the volume to hear the content clearly.
He said to the sisters nearby: "Mr. Li's third uncle, Li Hongqian, is asking if there is anyone in Xin City. Let's go find them."
One of the sisters said: "Sister Zuo, it will get dark soon. Can we go out?"
Zuo Ruxue's eyes widened and she cursed:
"We are now non-staff members of Da Zhangshu. People in our team, if Mr. Li hadn't included us as non-staff members last time, would you have been able to survive that winter?
Besides, where do we hide every time it rains for a long time? Xiaofeng, I don’t want to hear you say such things next time.
Mr. Li treats us well. Besides, we have cooperated with Mr. Li for such a long time, but we still don’t understand Mr. Li’s character and what the situation is like at the Da Zhangshu Base?
We have been cooperating with Da Zhangshu for so long, and finally reported important information last time. Only then can we be listed as non-staff personnel and enjoy receiving food every month.
....."
Hearing what Zuo Ruxue said, the other sisters around them all agreed. The sister who spoke, her face became anxious when she heard what Zuo Ruxue said, and she quickly said: "Sister Zuo, that's not what I meant."
Zuo Ruxue sighed and said: "I know you are worried about danger, but if you don't take any risks, you won't have any opportunities.
Li Hongqian has a very high status at Da Zhangshu Base, not to mention that as non-staff members we should have responded, and besides, now is also an opportunity."
Zuo Ruxue opened a small gap in the window, looked at Xiao Jun and others driving slowly in the car, and shouted the content from the horn.
Said to others:
"I don't know what the purpose of this group of people is, but this is the information. If we can report it to Li Hongqian earlier, or find them earlier, we will have a deeper impression on them, and maybe we can truly join the big team earlier.
Camphor tree base. Live in it.”
As soon as these words came out, the seven or eight sisters around them all had longing in their eyes.
...
In the suburbs of Xincheng, Xiao Hu, who was preparing to live and cook, heard the voice on the walkie-talkie and immediately said to the two dozen brothers around him: "Come to live! Be prepared."
Then he said into the intercom:
"Captain Li, hello, I am Da Zhangshu Supervisory Team 2, Xiao Hu. I am currently on the outskirts of Xincheng. Where are you? Do you need us to come over?"
Third uncle just repeated what he said three times.
When I heard the intercom, I became restless.
First of all, it’s what Xiao Hu said.
Next, Zhuzhu replied:
"I love studying. Third uncle, I am the staff pillar of the outer city. I am currently on the top floor of the Agricultural Bank of China. Where are you? Let's come over."
Then there was Zuo Ruxue. After hearing what the above two teams said, she thought for a while and said: "Captain Li, I am a non-staff member of Team 3.
I have something to report to you. There is a team of about 30 people in military uniforms near Chengguan Primary School. They hold a loudspeaker and say they are looking for people from our Dazhangshu base.
Moreover, he also said that he knows Mr. Li Yu, what should we do now?"
...
Lao Qin was stunned. He thought there were no people in Xin City, but he didn't expect so many people to show up immediately after the captain's greeting.
And there seemed to be two teams, right near them.
When the third uncle heard Zuo Ruxue's voice, the appearance of a 30-year-old woman appeared in his mind. He had seen her a few times, but had never spoken to her.
Listening to Zuo Ruxue, if she could see Xiao Jun's group, they must be very close to her.
Then he said: "Zuo Ruxue, where are you now?"
Zuo Ruxue said without any hesitation: "Hongqi Avenue, second floor of Xinhua Bookstore."
The third uncle was stunned. They were on Hongqi Avenue now, and he remembered that Xinhua Bookstore was right opposite...
The third uncle poked his head out from the wall and saw the building diagonally opposite and the sign below: Xinhua Store.
The signboard with calligraphy fell down.
His eyes moved upward, looking at the tightly closed windows on the second floor of Xinhua Bookstore, and he said leisurely: "Open the windows."
Zuo Ruxue had some guesses in her mind, so she gently opened the window a small gap.
really!
The third uncle saw a gap opened in the window on the second floor.
"Don't look, it's on the upper left, on the top floor of the clothing store." The third uncle looked at Zuo Ruxue, looked left and right, looking for him, and said.
Zuo Ruxue raised her head and was stunned.
So close!!!
The third uncle thought for a while and said:
"Let's do this, Xiao Hu. You are in the suburbs. Now immediately send people to the Da Zhangshu base to tell the people inside the information that Zuo Ruxue just said. Well, you just say it is Xiao Jun's gang and let Li
Hongda and the others, send some people over. Just say that I am here too."
"Zhuzi, come here and join me now."
"Zuo Ruxue, stay over there for now and don't be discovered by those people. I will call you later."
