As a relatively important transportation hub occupying the center of Yu Province, although Wangbei Town is not large, it is much more prosperous than the surrounding towns.
There are many shops in the town, and the roads extend in all directions. If you don't take the expressway, basically all the large passenger trucks in the province need to pass through here before going around. Therefore, there are many various entertainment venues that are less open in ordinary towns.
But now, this once bustling and noisy traffic town has long fallen into the catastrophe of the apocalypse, and has become very desolate and dilapidated. Only the densely packed stores on the street can still see some of the former prosperity.
Next to a chain supermarket in the center of the town, Lin Cheng was lying in the car, leaning back on the driver's seat with the back of the seat down, his feet on the steering wheel and smoking a cigarette out of boredom.
This place is less than 200 kilometers away from Liancheng. Since this town is a transit station where traffic gathers, since they arrived here last night, they found that many convoys of survivors had gathered here.
The purpose of these convoys is obviously to go to the Liancheng Military Region, and since they gathered here, these convoys have chosen to stay temporarily for a rest. Over time, more and more convoys have gathered here, plus the original traffic in the town
As for the survivors, depending on the situation, within two days they will almost be able to form the same size as when Lin City and the others set out.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Even though it is the end of the world, as more and more people gather in this town, conflicts begin to appear.
Finally, under the advice of the leaders of each convoy, these people actually formed a survivor alliance, declared that cannibalism was prohibited, and at the same time stepped up efforts to clean up the zombie monsters in the town to prevent large-scale attacks.
The once dilapidated town has regained some of its former prosperity under the efforts of these survivors. However, this is just a transit point after all. Our final destination is the Liancheng Military Region established by the military, so we stopped here.
A few days later, we began to discuss the idea of going to Liancheng Military Region together.
Lin Cheng originally dismissed the idea proposed by the so-called alliance to go to the Liancheng Military Region to survive together. After passing by and resting for the night, he inquired about some information and prepared to continue on his way, but unexpectedly he was stopped by Mu Yingxue.
Come down.
Mu Yingxue never thought about going with these people, but after she saw an acquaintance from the convoy in the supermarket where the survivors gathered, she finally couldn't sit still!
Because this person can reach here alive, it means that not all the survivors of the previous convoy died. Thinking of this, Mu Yingxue's mind suddenly became active. If this person is here, will Qi Rui be here too?
However, after searching and asking, she could not find Qi Rui. She inquired carefully about the survivor but could not find any useful information.
Mu Yingxue didn't want to give up just like that. She felt that Qi Rui was not here just because she hadn't arrived yet. Finally, she discussed it with Lin Cheng and decided to wait here for two days to take a look.
Lin Cheng originally disagreed. Seeing that he was about to arrive in Liancheng in two days, he was so full that he would waste two days here in vain. However, Mu Yingxue's attitude was very firm, saying that if Lin Cheng
If she didn't want to wait, she could leave first and go to Liancheng Military Region to find Mu Houyuan, and describe Mu Houyuan's appearance to him, but she must stay here to wait for Qi Rui.
After getting along for a period of time, the most important thing was that Mu Yingxue saved his life. Lin Cheng didn't want to use force on her. In the end, both parties took a step back and decided to stay here for one day. If they can't wait until tomorrow morning,
Qi Rui, they must set off immediately.
Mu Yingxue, who finally won her first victory in the fight with Lin Cheng, burst into cheers. Seeing that she was jumping around but accidentally slipped on the snow, Lin Cheng suddenly shook his head and was speechless. Mu Yingxue was also a little embarrassed and got up in embarrassment.
She smiled at him and hurriedly ran to the supermarket to continue inquiring about the news.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Lin Cheng sat back in the car, glanced at the coke sleeping in the back seat, laughed and cursed, and then smoked while continuing to think about how to use his ice control ability to fight.
After deducing it in his mind for a moment, Lin Cheng sat up. After seeing no one around, he raised his right hand and lightly snapped his fingers. Suddenly, he felt that the surrounding air dropped several degrees in an instant, and a gust of ice was also in the air.
It condensed rapidly, and within a moment it condensed into an ice sword about three feet long and two fingers wide, floating in front of his eyes. Then he stretched out his hand to hold the crystal clear ice sword that exuded cold air, but he didn't feel it.
Feel a cool touch.
Lin Cheng was already used to this weird phenomenon. He had done various experiments when he had time on the road these past two days. He had long known that the ice he summoned would not cause any harm to himself.
Holding the ice sword, Lin Cheng observed it carefully, then took out the straight knife from the back seat and fought it several times with one hand. However, he was surprised to find that the ice sword was still cut off despite the fight.
, but considering how hard this straight blade was, he didn’t think the ice sword would be much inferior!
After inserting the straight sword back into the scabbard, Lin Cheng picked up the broken half of the ice sword on the ground. After aligning the gaps between the two broken swords, with a thought, he saw that the ice sword was broken in the middle in the blink of an eye.
Restored to the way it was at the beginning of condensation!
It seems that the efforts of these two days were not in vain...
Lin Cheng felt a little relieved. Although it didn't last long, he had already mastered some ice control abilities. This ice sword-condensing move was one he had been trying recently without success.
Seeing Mu Yingxue coming back from a distance, Lin Cheng threw the ice sword out of the car and snapped his fingers. The ice sword flying in the air instantly dissipated into a piece of ice shavings and floated into the snow underground.
"How's it going? Is there any news about Qi Rui?"
Seeing that she had already walked over, Lin Cheng asked casually.
Mu Yingxue looked a little disappointed, shook her head and said: "No... Although I saw a few more survivors in the convoy, there was still no news about Qi Rui and Tao Kai. After all, the situation at that time was too urgent..."
Lin Cheng nodded when he heard this. He wanted to say that since there is no news, let's leave as soon as possible, but he heard Mu Yingxue continue: "But I heard from them that everyone has discussed it and decided to leave for Liancheng Military Region tomorrow.
, it seems that like you, they don’t want to waste time here anymore, but it seems that I don’t have the chance to wait for Qi Rui..."
Lin Cheng could only shrug helplessly. Just as he was about to say something, he looked up and saw a gray-faced little girl appearing next to Mu Yingxue at some point, looking at her with watery black eyes.
His small lips moved slightly but he said nothing.
Following Lin Cheng's gaze, Mu Yingxue lowered her head and saw a little man standing silently at her feet. She screamed in fright and jumped away quickly. She calmed down before remembering.
Go and observe what this little girl looks like.
This little girl looks about six or seven years old. Due to malnutrition, her little body, less than one meter tall, looks skinny. Her hair is messy and long, and her face is covered with dust, making it difficult to see clearly.
She looked like she was twisting her little hands vigorously. Seeing Lin Cheng and Mu Yingxue staring at her, she lowered her head in embarrassment.
After being stunned for a while, Mu Yingxue asked her carefully and softly: "Little girl, you...do you have anything to do with your brother and sister?"
Hearing Mu Yingxue's question, the little girl raised her head slightly and glanced at her. For some reason, she quickly turned her head and glanced at the expressionless Lin Cheng, but finally lowered her head again.
Seeing her like this, Mu Yingxue was a little puzzled. When she wanted to ask something, she was interrupted by Lin Cheng's wave of his hand.
"You're here for something to eat, right?"
Interrupting Mu Yingxue's question, Lin Cheng stared at the little girl's lowered head for a few seconds and suddenly asked.
The little girl trembled when she heard this, and lowered her head, but finally nodded!
