Chapter 922 The human heart is not enough, the snake swallows the elephant, the discovery of the imperial concubine

Surrounded by mountains, winding roads pass through dense mountain forests.

From Kunshi to Dazhangshu Base, we pass through hilly areas and have to pass through many tunnels and caves.

September 6th.

clear.

The sky is shining brightly, and one look at the sky tells me that the weather is good today.

Li Yu and others drove vehicles, leading a convoy several kilometers long, and drove slowly towards the Da Zhangshu base.

The convoy was huge and the formation was not small. Wherever it went, the birds and beasts on both sides of the road were frightened and fled.

The helicopters in the sky flew slowly, always keeping a helicopter patrolling several kilometers or even dozens of kilometers ahead of the convoy to ensure that there would be no ambush ahead or to understand the situation in advance.

The distance from Dazhangshu Base to Kunming City is more than 1,000 kilometers.

Due to the large number of vehicles, in order to ensure that they could keep up with them, the driving speed was only forty yards per hour. At this speed, it would take at least three days for them to reach the Da Zhangshu Base.

Boom boom boom——

The convoy entered a tunnel.

The zombies in this tunnel have been eliminated by Ju Tianrui and the others as the vanguard convoy.

Ju Tianrui walked at the front with two infantry fighting vehicles and an armored transport vehicle, specifically to clear trouble for the convoy behind.

That's why they can guarantee a speed of forty yards per hour, otherwise they will waste more time by stopping and going.

In the tunnel.

Li Yu sat in the armored RV, looking out the window at the tunnel holes illuminated by the car lights.

The original gray cement wall was stained with some blood stains.

Further up, there is a huge ventilation pipe in the tunnel.

Even with the illumination of car lights, since there are no lights in the tunnel, you can still only see the road ahead clearly, but not the surrounding situation clearly.

The tunnel has been cleared by Ju Tianrui and the others, so only some corpses of zombies can be seen.

The vehicle ran over the corpse of the zombie, making a squeaking sound.

Under the crushing force of hundreds of vehicles, the corpse of the zombie had already been crushed into a meat pie.

Whoosh!

Suddenly his eyes lit up.

Li Yu and the others have already driven out of the tunnel.

As soon as he walked out of the tunnel, Li Yu saw a sea of ​​bamboos all over the mountains and plains.

When I went to Kunshi, my mood was completely different from when I returned with a lot of supplies.

I gained a lot from this trip. I didn’t look at many of the supplies in the car carefully. I just took a quick look when loading them into the car.

There are so many supplies, filling hundreds of vehicles, that it will take a lot of time to go back and sort out the registration.

Under such circumstances, Li Yu was in a good mood.

Although there was news from Oil City yesterday about a request for cooperation from Southern Paradise, he was not too worried about it at the time.

According to the memory of his previous life, Mr. Hu, the helmsman of Southern Paradise, has some bottom lines. It is normal for him to come here now to seek cooperation.

The bamboo sea swayed in the wind.

Pieces of bamboo leaves, blown by the wind, are like waves in the lake.

Bamboo leaves are flying.

The rustling sound makes people feel relaxed and at ease after hearing it.

Soon it was noon.

The helicopter driven by Uncle San and the others also needs to be refueled.

On the helicopter.

The third uncle saw a relatively flat area ahead, with mountains and forests hundreds of miles away.

The view is good.

So he took out his walkie-talkie and contacted Li Yu.

"Xiaoyu, there is a suitable resting place five kilometers ahead of you. Stop there when the time comes. We can add some fuel to the helicopter."

After hearing what his third uncle said, Li Yu said, "Okay, let's stop later."

The convoy drove to the national highway in the middle of the open space.

Both sides of the national highway are full of weeds, and it can still be vaguely seen from the field ridges that there used to be farmland on both sides of the national highway.

In the last three years, the farmland has long been abandoned and overgrown with weeds.

Li Yu felt calm in his heart. After getting off the armored RV, his buttocks ached from sitting in the armored RV. He would have to ride for at least two more days.

After getting out of the car, he saw the motorcade behind him with no end in sight.

People on the bus got off one after another to solve personal problems.

In order to seize the time, the convoy never stopped. Once a car in the middle stopped, the following vehicles would also stop.

So many people inside have been holding it in for a long time, and now they are finally released.

The air seemed to be filled with the smell of urine.

After Third Uncle and the others landed the helicopter, they refueled the helicopter.

Half an hour later, they set off again.

The convoy, which was like a long queue, not only caused the birds and beasts passing by to retreat in fright, but even some survivors were so frightened that they fled from the road and hurriedly hid in the mountains and forests, dumbfounded in the dark, wondering where the convoy came from.

, and where are they going?

However, even if Li Yu discovered them and saw that there was no threat, he would ignore them and drive straight towards the Da Zhangshu base.

........

Xincheng.

The fifth satellite city.

The imperial concubine has a habit of getting up early, so she gets up early in the morning to pack the things she needs to carry today.

She, Lao Huang, and Xiao Ye earned a lot of points and food by virtue of the discovery of a large number of brass wires.

But they did not use up all the points. These points can be matched with corresponding food. After the redemption, although the points number is still there, the food will not be given to you again.

Some teams of cooperators occasionally found urgently needed items in the missions released by the Da Zhangshu Base, which could be exchanged for hundreds of kilograms of grain at once.

But in the apocalypse, carrying so much food is very dangerous.

Although they are all within the sphere of influence of the Da Zhangshu base, no one will come to rob them, but in the middle of the night, what if someone steals them.

Moreover, they often have to go out to perform tasks, and it is very unsafe to carry hundreds of kilograms of food at all times.

All in all, the first team proposed to temporarily store the redeemable grain at the Da Zhangshu Base and come back to retrieve it when needed later.

After all, it is very safe for them to be placed in the Da Zhangshu base.

Of course, it is safest to keep things like food in your own hands, but for some people, holding too much food is also dangerous.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After cooperating with Da Zhangshu Base for so long, these people have a relatively high degree of recognition and trust in Da Zhangshu Base. In addition, there is the first person to do this, one after another.

There are also a few people who do this.

Currently, most of the people doing this are non-staff personnel, as well as elderly people who have cooperated with Da Zhangshu Base for a long time.

For the Da Zhangshu Base, there is no need to take out so much food at once and put the food on their side, why not?

Therefore, under the needs of the two, such an option of storing grain was opened.

Similar to a pre-apocalyptic bank.

After all, in this apocalyptic world, the most common thing with the most purchasing power is food.

After the imperial concubine and Old Huangtou obtained a large number of brass wires, their points increased rapidly.

Each of the three of them had more than a hundred kilograms of grain.

This is a huge sum of money.

Enough to feed them for a whole year!

In the Da Zhangshu base, except for the people in the inner and outer cities, no one can eat three meals a day and be full at every meal.

This is too luxurious for them.

After experiencing the pain of hunger, you will be like a hamster, constantly thinking of ways to reserve food for the future in order to meet emergency needs.

They no longer want to live a life where they are so hungry that they feel dizzy and their eyes turn green.

The imperial concubine was in a very good mood.

She suddenly became rich a few days ago, which gave her the confidence to continue living.

Although we are in the fifth satellite city farthest from the Da Zhangshu base and are not as safe as those around the base, the competition here is not as intense as there, and it is easier to obtain points.

.......

The sun hasn't come out yet.

The sky was blue-grey and misty.

It was just after five o'clock.

Squeak——

The imperial concubine opened the door and planned to get some water from the well outside to wash her face.

In the center of the fifth satellite city, there are three buildings and two rows of prefabricated houses made of iron sheets.

The imperial concubine walked out of the wooden house and looked up to see the personnel on duty guarding the gate.

I felt a little sense of security in my heart.

Pass through the board house and walk to the end of the iron board house.

We are about to reach the well.

Suddenly, she heard voices coming from the wooden house at the end.

The imperial concubine was a little confused, slowed down her pace, and listened.

"I think we should not get involved in this matter. It is a serious matter. The strength of the Da Zhangshu Base has also been seen. We have finally joined the fifth satellite city and joined their protests. If it causes the Da Zhangshu Guo

The captain was dissatisfied and even the Da Zhangshu base took action, but we had no power to resist."

A thick man's voice said in a very iron tone:

"Hey, why can't I explain it to you? According to internal rumors, the main force of Da Zhangshu Base is no longer in Xincheng. What are you afraid of? Qiu Yuanze and others are right. There are so many people coming from the southwest now, as long as we work together

, protesting together, it is impossible to kill so many of us."

Another young man replied:

"Lao He, I don't care what you think, anyway, I don't want to go through this muddy water. How can you not be satisfied if you can escape all the way and find such a good place? Do you insist on making trouble? This is not..."

He didn't say it out loud, but the older man understood what he meant.

"Think about it again. If we can succeed, everyone's salary will be improved by then. Why do we need to do so many tasks in exchange for such a small amount of food.

This is not a gift, this is not a cooperative transaction, this is the exploitation of our labor.

This Da Zhangshu Base is also a human being, asking us to take risks to find supplies, while they stay in the tall walls, which is really irritating."

The young man frowned, as if what the old He in front of him said made him unhappy.

So he opened his mouth and said:

"You don't have to say anymore. If this is the reason why you came to me so early in the morning, I can give you an accurate answer.

I won’t join.”

The older Lao He said helplessly:

"Okay, okay, Xiao Ou, you just have to keep this secret for me and don't let it leak out, otherwise it won't be good for you."

There was a hint of threat in his words.

"I know. You should leave quickly. It will be dawn soon. It will be troublesome if others find out."

"Okay, Xiao Ou, if you figure it out, you can tell me at any time. To tell you the truth, there are many people who are willing to participate in this protest!"

After saying that, he walked towards the door.

The imperial concubine who was eavesdropping outside the door felt nervous, and tiptoed towards the wooden house, then walked around in a circle and walked to the back of the wooden house.

Squeak——

She heard the sound of the door opening in front of the cabin, followed by a rush of footsteps, which became farther and farther away.

The imperial concubine quietly poked her head out and glanced at the retreating figure.

Congratulations!

She knew this person, and he came here from the southwest a month ago.

I completed several missions, so I was able to stay in the satellite city.

Lucky for He Zhi, he entered the satellite city before Supervisor Li issued the restriction order.

There was a robbery incident before, so since then, it has been very difficult for the collaborators who joined later to enter the satellite city.

But this He Zhi joined in before that incident.

Unexpectedly, this He Zhi actually planned to cause trouble?

No, to be precise, the Qiu Yuanze just mentioned is the person who led this matter, and who is this Qiu Yuanze?

Recently, there have been a lot of people coming from the southwest. From the first few people to dozens of people, hundreds of people poured in in the next day.

There should be more than five thousand survivors here now.

Most of the people stayed here, while a small number of people left and continued walking eastward.

The influx of these people is not a good thing for the imperial concubine and other collaborators who joined earlier.

This means there are more people competing with them.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Everyone can perform the tasks released by the Da Zhangshu Base, and there is only so much food that can be exchanged.

Therefore, in this case, there will inevitably be some conflicts between the old collaborators and the new collaborators. However, under the constraints of the Da Zhangshu Base, no one dares to openly conflict.

In addition, the Da Zhangshu Base actually has some preferential treatment for old partners. For example, in the satellite city nowadays, almost all of them are old partners.

It is very difficult for new collaborators to stay here.

After all, the Da Zhangshu Base is not a charity. If the mission is not completed, it will not give you any food.

After you complete the task, they will give you food.

...

The imperial concubine's face remained normal, and she went to the well to fetch water to wash her face. On the way back, she even met a co-worker she knew and said hello.

After returning to the lounge, she did not disturb Lao Huang and the others, but slowly packed up the things she was going to go out for today.

As time passed, Lao Huang and others also woke up.

Then they cooked something to eat in their own iron pots as usual, and then left the satellite city.

Lao Huang, Xiao Ye, and Guifei formed a group.

After all, they all came from the motorcycle gang before, and after arriving at the Da Zhangshu base, they also chose to come to the fifth satellite city together.

So they are familiar with each other.

Compared with others, they still trust each other more.

Especially after experiencing the robbery, the small group of three people became more stable.

The imperial concubine is good at archery, her skills are not bad, she is soft on the outside but hard on the inside, and has an iron frame.

Although Lao Huang is older, he is experienced and resourceful. He can always find some cost-effective tasks to perform and can always provide the best solution in dangerous moments.

Xiao Ye is tall and thin, a sharp-tongued young man, but he has a kind-hearted nature and is not a frivolous person. He works hard and without complaint. Even though he is young, he is also a good helper.

When looking for teammates in the apocalypse, character is greater than ability.

No matter how strong your teammates are, they may directly betray you and kill you when faced with an opportunity to get rich.

Whether it is Lao Huang or the imperial concubine, they are quite satisfied with each other. As they perform more missions together, the trust and relationship between them have deepened a lot.

Come out of the satellite city.

They drove a motorcycle and pulled a wooden flatbed behind it.

Xiaoye was driving, and Lao Huang and the concubine were sitting on the cart behind.

Like a turtle speed.

Lao Huang looked around, but there was no one else.

As if unintentionally, he said to the imperial concubine: "My imperial concubine, you seem to have something on your mind."

The imperial concubine glanced at Old Huang in surprise.

This old man is so smart.

I had no intention of hiding it, but it was just not convenient to talk about it in the satellite city just now. I planned to tell Lao Huang about it when I went out to perform tasks.

Lao Huang is a person who knows how to maximize profits.

Although the imperial concubine wanted to tell Guo Peng the first moment after hearing the news, she changed her mind.

She has no evidence! And she doesn’t even know who Qiu Yuanze is.

It might be better if we have more information.

An hour later.

They arrived outside a small town.

The imperial concubine pointed to the path on the side of the road. Xiaoye was puzzled. Lao Huang asked him to drive in.

Entering a dense forest.

The imperial concubine looked at Lao Huang and Xiaoye and said, "Some new people want to cause trouble!"

Lao Huang's eyes narrowed, he got off the cart, his eyes were bright, and he said seriously: "What should I say? Tell us the details."
