Chapter 1609 I'm willing to cut myself off, dare to pull the emperor off his horse
After Wang Dabiao left, Liu Shiba opened the bedroom door and looked at the sleeping Wang Sihan, then closed the door and walked to the living room, took a chair and sat on the balcony, smoking and drinking tea while watching the scenery...
"Dong dong dong!"
About half an hour later, when Liu Shiba was almost falling asleep while basking in the sun, there was a gentle knock on the door on the third floor.
Liu Shiba remembered that the door was not locked, so he responded without looking back:
"Come in!"
After the door opened, Liu Shiba looked back and saw Liu Hai walking in, holding a plastic bag in his hand.
"Boss! Mr. Wang came over just now and said these are the 12.7mm rifle bullets you need. There are five boxes in total, each box contains fifty rounds."
Liu Hai said as he put the plastic bag on the small coffee table in front of the sofa.
Liu Shiba nodded and asked curiously:
"Old Liu, don't you plan to take a level four gene enhancer?"
Liu Hai smiled and said:
"Of course I have to take it! But before that, I hope to meet my family, so as not to leave any regrets if the enhancement fails.
So just now Wang Target and I went to prepare some repair tools, intending to drive two other off-road vehicles to the Mitsubishi heavy truck before dark, repair it and drive back.
When I get back, I'll do a checkup and fill up the gas so that I can go to Dingbian gathering place tomorrow to pick me up and Nian Xiaonian and the other girls' families."
Liu Shiba smiled and said:
"Well! Pay attention to safety and take Lao Hei with you when you go. You will be protected on the road!"
"Yes, boss!"
Liu Hai nodded and was about to leave, but Liu Shiba stopped him and asked:
"Liu Hai, don't run away in a hurry. Let me ask you something. What do you think of the Dingbian gathering place? And Zhao Sihai, especially the more than 30,000 people living there."
Liu Hai was startled when he heard this. After thinking for a while, he looked up at Liu Shiba and asked:
"Does the boss want me to tell the truth?"
"Of course! I want to hear what you think over there."
Liu Shiba nodded, lit a cigarette for Liu Hai and added:
"Come, sit down and talk."
Liu Hai took the cigarette and lit it and took a puff. He also brought a chair to sit next to Liu Shiba and whispered:
"Actually, although Commander Zhao is usually a bit domineering, strictly speaking, he is not a bad person.
Over the years, if Zhao Sihai had not maintained the balance of various forces in the gathering place, it would have been seized by other gathering places and then collapsed.
As for the gathering place in Dingbian, that is actually my home, and it is also the home of Nian Xiaonian and the others. I have lived there since I was a child. To say that I have no feelings would definitely be a lie.
I dare not say that I know all of the more than 30,000 people living in the gathering place, but at least I know most of them. There must be some people who are forced to commit petty theft and commit crimes in order to survive, but they are only a very small number.
However, treacherous and evil people are extremely rare in the gathering place. To put it bluntly, among the 30,000 people, most of the young and middle-aged people have been recruited to join the city defense army in the gathering place, and the number is about 4,000.
In addition to wearing military uniforms when they are on duty, these soldiers take off their uniforms when they are on duty, just like ordinary people. They also have to go out hunting to earn money to support their families, so their lives are not easy.
Except for those who are doing business in the gathering area, the others are the old and the weak, women and children, and the number is about 20,000. These people are very pitiful, living hungry and struggling to survive without food or clothing..."
As he spoke, Liu Hai, an old man who usually looked very strong, had his eyes a little red...
Liu Shiba turned his head and listened carefully, then suddenly stretched out his hand and patted Liu Hai's shoulder a few times, and suddenly said:
"Three days later, maybe less than three days later, there will be an extremely powerful corpse wave, numbering about one million, that will pass by the Dingbian gathering place. When the locusts pass by, not a single grass will grow. You must be mentally prepared!"
"What?"
After hearing Liu Shiba's explanation, Liu Hai's eyes suddenly widened and his mouth opened wide with a look of horror on his face.
After a long time, Liu Hai asked anxiously:
"Boss, what did you mean when you said this zombie wave was extremely powerful?"
Liu Shiba's expression was equally solemn and he whispered:
"This wave of corpses numbered about a million. It is said that they came from a big city in the south. There was no grass growing anywhere along the way.
Several gathering places with a population of 30,000 to 50,000 people have been wiped out along the way. There was also a gathering place with a population of 100,000 people that only resisted for three days and was finally destroyed.
According to the spies who returned from the Wang family, the lowest level of zombies in the zombie wave are Level 2 zombies, and most of them are composed of Level 3 to Level 4 zombie mutants.
There are also a large number of level five zombies and mutant beasts among them, and there are even dozens of level six zombies and mutant beasts that can fly at low altitudes."
Liu Hai was stunned and said:
"How many dozens are there at Level 6? Let alone dozens. One or two Level 6 mutant beasts or zombies could wipe out the entire Dingbian gathering place..."
Liu Shiba nodded and affirmed:
"Yes, you heard it right, there are dozens of Level 6 ones! So, tomorrow you have to take Nian Xiaonian and the others back as soon as possible, and bring your family here to take shelter..."
Hearing the blackening of his bangs, he stood up with difficulty and walked toward the door with a little staggering steps...
After taking two steps, Liu Hai suddenly turned around and stared at Liu Shiba, walked quickly to him, knelt down in front of him, and begged:
"Boss, boss! I know you have a way, right? Please save them.
Save the Dingbian gathering place, save the 30,000 old, weak, women and children, right? They, they are human beings too..."
"The man has gold at his knees, get up quickly!"
Liu Shiba had no choice but to hold up his bangs and said with a wry smile:
"You think I am a god? Even gods are powerless in the face of natural disasters."
Liu Hai looked pained and unwilling, but he also knew that his request to Liu Shiba was so difficult that it was ridiculous and ignorant.
Finally, Liu Shiba said to Liu Hai:
"You go back immediately and have a good rest, and then take your family here for shelter. We will talk about other things later.
Maybe, it’s not completely impossible, but there’s little hope…”
Hearing what Liu Shiba said, Liu Hai immediately became energetic, blinked and said:
"Boss, what do you mean? There may be a way to save the lives of 30,000 people in Dingbian gathering place, right? Isn't that right?"
Liu Shiba touched his chin and said with a wry smile:
"Maybe, but the hope is not great."
But no matter how Liu Shiba explained, Liu Hai still stubbornly knelt down and said loudly:
"Boss! I kowtow to you on behalf of the 30,000 young men and women gathered in Dingbian. I beg you to save them no matter what..."
"Why!"
Liu Shiba had no choice but to lift Liu Hai up again and said:
"Actually, the method is very simple. You are also a smart person. You know how to bring down the emperor as long as you are willing to kill yourself..."
Liu Hai was stunned when he heard this, frowned and thought for a while, then looked up at Liu Shiba and said:
"What does the boss mean? As long as the people in Dingbian gathering place are willing to give up, there is hope?"
Could it be that the boss means to abandon the entire gathering place, take all the food and weapons that can be carried, and carry out a large-scale migration to temporarily avoid the route of the corpse tide?"
Liu Shiba said nothing, staring at his bangs...
Finally, Liu Hai sighed:
"If you abandon the gathering place protected by high walls, you will only live for a while longer than dying directly.
In essence, it is not much different from encountering a tide of corpses. If you are in the wild without food or water, sooner or later you will still be alone and die..."
