Chen Pingping took a look at the fortress where he had lived for 16 years. The gray city walls made of steel were mottled with traces, and there was an aura of doom. From time to time, soldiers would run past, and various people were parked on the roadside.
This is a military vehicle. This is a city abandoned by normal people. There are only soldiers, orphans, and businessmen here. Businessmen have to pass through the safe roads opened in the desert to sell things farther west on the continental plate, such as the devils in the mainland.
Specimens, such as tea leaves, salt, and some materialized equipment, are even more serious forms of human trafficking, but of course they are not blatant trafficking.
There is a sharp contrast between this place and the Magic City. It is harsh and harsh here, while the people in the Magic City are comfortable and prosperous.
Chen Pingping looked a little dazed, as if he was recalling everything in the past 16 years. No one will remember dead things, so live on and grit your teeth to live on!
He came to a truck at the east exit of the fortress, where people were loading demon corpses on it. They were left over from the battle a few days ago and were escorted by troops to be transported to the Mainland Research Institute for analysis. There were many around.
The soldiers were cursing and sitting on the ground smoking cigarettes, waiting for orders to set off at any time. Most of the marks on the backs of their hands were brass 4 and brass 5.
Chen Pingping silently wrapped the logo on the strap handle before walking forward and finding the highest-ranking officer there. At this time, the officer was leaning on the side of the truck smoking, with a mixture of ashes and mud on his face. He hadn't walked in yet.
You can smell an overwhelming stench and it's difficult to take a shower here.
"I want to take a ride to the mainland," Chen Pingping said in a calm tone.
The officer raised his head and glanced at him: "Aren't you a brat who lives in the west? I don't know what you think even if you are not solicited by the big chaebols. I don't want to join anyone else even if I want to!"
Chen Pingping said nothing.
The officer snorted, turned his eyes carefully and looked left and right. Only when he found that no one was there, he said, "Do you know the rules?"
"Know."
"follow me!"
As he spoke, the officer took Chen Pingping to a small bungalow nearby. There was a dilapidated transfer transaction machine inside. He inserted his card into it and motioned for Chen Pingping to also insert his identity card: "Hurry up.
Yes, my name is Xu Le. I have been living in this shabby fortress for five or six years, so I can’t scare you!"
Chen Pingping inserted the card and entered the password so that an officer named Xu Le could transfer 100,000 yuan.
"Damn, you are much richer than me! I spent all my money on women! You just said he was my nephew, you know! If you tell me, I will be punished, and you can't leave!" Xu Le looked at him cursingly.
He led him out again with one glance: "Go, you go to my car. There are fewer carcasses of monitor lizards in my car and the smell is better."
With that said, Xu Le turned to the other soldiers and shouted: "I am taking my nephew out to meet the market this time. Brothers, please don't be angry!"
"Haha, boss, how many nephews do you have!"
"Guangguangguan, when did I go to the mainland without you? Don't go even if you yell!" Xu Le spat on the ground, holding the car door and getting into the passenger seat. 10 trucks, 50 soldiers
He rushed out of the fortress gate amidst the rumbling sound of the engine and headed east!
Chen Pingping sat on the back of the truck and watched the ruins on both sides speeding backwards, and the place where he grew up became farther and farther away.
“I saw a new heaven and a new earth; the old world had passed away, and there was no longer any sea.”

In the evening, everyone flew through the Lanzhou Fortress without encountering any demons, and arrived at a small supply station in front of Ningxia.
"The bastards are all down, hurry up and make a fire to cook. It's really uncomfortable to sit here all day and let me have a nest!" After Xu Le got off the car, he quickly shook himself up, stretched his muscles and bones, and then lit a cigarette.
, patted the bucket on the back of the truck vigorously: "Boy, we're down, we'll camp here tonight!"
Chen Pingping jumped out of the trailer behind the car. The first thing he did was to look at the surrounding environment: there were only a row of simple bungalows. There were a few large oil drums next to the bungalows, and a middle-aged uncle was cooking. Chen Pingping
I sniffed it with my nose and it smelled pretty good.
"Lao Xu, I'm here to see you!" Xu Le went to the kitchen carelessly.
"Damn it. You little brat is talking to your uncle like this. Are you itchy again?" The uncle in the kitchen was holding a large spoon and was about to whip Xu Le.
"Haha, aren't I trying to get close to you? People don't come to your supply depot very often. They all go to the military. I'm the only one who often comes to take care of your business. I tell you, you should be polite to me!"
Xu Le said with a smile, and ran behind to wash his face.
The soldiers in each vehicle got out of the car and greeted Lao Xu cordially. It could be seen that they came not once or twice.
"Hurry up and wash up in the back. Lao Xu is the only one with a well within a radius of ten kilometers!" Lao Xu looked at Chen Pingping and said, "Young man, I've never seen you before!"
Chen Pingping thought for a while: "I am Xu Le's nephew."
Lao Xu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, why didn't I know that Xu Le had a nephew? Then he realized what he was doing and ran back with his spoon in his hand: "Mom, you little brat is making unconscionable money again. Your father and your mother have such bad character."
You're ruined, you little brat!"
"Damn it, if I don't make money, who will come to you! Hey, I told you to be gentle!"
After a while, Xu Le came over with a straight face and said to Chen Pingping: "Come here to eat, fuck, the money will not be refunded. It's not easy for the brothers, damn. I forgot to tell you this!"
Chen Pingping was startled when he saw Xu Le with a clean face. He didn't expect that Xu Le was quite young and was about 20 years old. He walked to the campfire and sat down, and heard everyone having a lively discussion. Xu Le was the most talkative:
"Have you heard about the loss of three fortresses in a row some time ago? Damn it, I just heard from the people above today that I don't know who gave the order that time and all the troops in the fortress were wiped out. It was a huge disaster.
There was not even a single person to resist the lizard invasion! More than 3,000 civilians died, and they didn’t even have a rank! These losers, the soldiers couldn’t even protect the civilians, so they were nothing but soldiers!”
"Haha, boss, stop being an angry young man. Even with your level of Brass 3, you can't protect me even if you want to!"
"Fuck, you brass 5s are qualified to criticize me? I've been watching that live broadcast recently. In less than two months, wait and see, I'll be promoted to silver and I'll show it to you. By then I'll be the company commander!
"
"Haha, if we don't brag, we are still good friends. What level are they at? What level are you at?"
"You don't believe it, right? Let me tell you, I don't want to reach the level you are looking at. My favorite is Chen Pingping. His operation is so fierce. I have never seen him make a mistake!"
