Catastrophe
Chapter 38: the night before departure
Compared with usual, the refugee area this night had a **** smell in the air, and at the same time there was a morbid liveliness. Almost all residential areas were lighting torches and bonfires, using wolves to fear fire. The way to defend, there are many people who are afraid of the wolves returning, all climbed to the roof in groups and gathered together to warm up.
Ning Zhe didn't take these people's worries seriously. He knew the animals in the wilderness very well, and knew that wolves were clever and cunning animals. According to Ning Zhe's guess, these wolves must be the habitats that were driven out because of the earthquake. I rushed to the vicinity of Fort 87 by mistake, because there was no food in the desert and Gobi, so I chose to venture into the human settlements to hunt for food.
When the wolves retreated in the market town before, they had already dragged away a lot of corpses, enough for them to eat. Although human beings caused casualties, the wolf will never continue to be attrition in the group, and there is no certainty of victory. case, come back for meaningless revenge.
After Ning Zhe left Su Fei's house, he was thinking about what Su Fei said to him along the way. At the same time, he was also thinking about why Su Fei arranged for two friends to go with him, but after thinking for a long time, he didn't guess. understand the purpose of those two people.
"Hey!"
Just as Ning Zhe walked into his alley, a female voice suddenly came, and he was also taken aback while thinking, looking up at Jin Zhi's pale face.
"Hehe!" Jin Zhi grinned, stretched his arms out of the window, and kept hooking at Ning Zhe: "Come here, I'll show you something good!"
"Hehe, you're not stupid. You always stretch your arms out of the window. When the wolves come, you're not injured." Ning Zhe said with a smile when he saw that there were no scars on Jinzhi's body.
"Hey! I'll show you something good!" Jin Zhi didn't know if he understood Ning Zhe's words, and kept waving at him.
"Sometimes, I also envy you. You don't have to think about anything, and there is no joy or sorrow. I hope your parents are okay." Ning Zhe left a sentence to Jin Zhi and disappeared into the dark alley.
"Hehe!" Jin Zhi looked at Ning Zhe's back with a smile, and curled his figure back into the darkness.
...
When Ning Zhe returned to his residence, the door of Zhao Yi's room was full of straw, and there were a few dry bamboo poles on it. These things were very easy to ignite. The firelight and the explosion of the bamboo burning were all afraid of the wolves. The things, at first glance, were arranged by Lin Xun.
When Ning Zhe entered the door, Lin Xun, Fatty Li and Zhao Yi were hiding in the corner of the wall. Lin Xun was holding a bow and arrow, Fatty Li was holding a knife tremblingly, and Zhao Yi was holding a bowl of kerosene. It seems to be ready to splash out at any time and set it on fire.
"Brother! You're back!" Lin Xun saw Ning Zhe's return, and heaved a sigh of relief: "After you were taken away, we didn't know what to do, so I went to ask Zhao Yi to find Su Fei, he Said let's go home and wait for the news, but I didn't expect you to actually come back!"
Ning Zhe looked at the nervous three people with a smile on his face: "Don't be nervous, everyone, the wolves won't be here tonight!"
"How are you! Did those people in the law enforcement team bully you?" Zhao Yi put the bowl aside and stepped forward with a concerned look.
"Don't worry, I'm fine, the law enforcement team is looking for me, it's just some misunderstanding." Ning Zhe was afraid that a few people would be worried, so he didn't talk about specific things, and changed the topic: "Tomorrow morning, I need to leave the market town and go to the wasteland. It may take a few days to go up, so we have to deploy it now..."
"Brother, didn't you say before that if we sold the wolf corpse, it would be enough to buy medicine? Why should we go to the wasteland? And we have to go there for several days?" : "The wolves that came before are bigger than the ones we've seen before, and they seem to have mutated again due to radiation. At this time, the wasteland is not yet known how dangerous it is, and it is approaching winter, but it is the animals. We hunt for winter season!"
"I negotiated a deal with the people in the fortress. As long as we can help, we can get supplies for the winter. Now that winter is getting closer and closer, if we don't hurry up and stock up on supplies, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to survive." Ning Zhe did not mention that he was persecuted, and continued: "In exchange, Xiao Xun will be taken to the guard post early tomorrow morning to live until I return. As for Fatty Li, just follow me!"
Ning Zhe paused, took out 300 yuan from his body and handed it to Zhao Yi: "Take these money, take care of yourself these days, don't do that kind of business again, wait for me to come back this time. , the materials obtained should be enough for us to get through this winter together!"
Ning Zhe took over the task of protecting Zhuo Mingyuan before. In addition to his own savings, he had almost 700 yuan in cash. Excluding water and food, there was only 600 left at the moment. The money for Zhao Yi had already been paid. It is half of their savings, but Zhao Yi has really helped them a lot recently, and even saved the lives of the three of their brothers several times. Emotional thoughts, but as a friend, you should take care of this girl.
"...Okay!" Zhao Yi thought for a while, took Ning Zhe's money, and a warm feeling passed through her heart. This sudden concern made her feel like she was reborn, as if this room was no longer there. It was so cold, the reason why she didn't reject Ning Zhe~lightnovelpub.net~ was not because of greed for money, but because she felt that choosing to accept the money would make her feel closer to Ning Zhe.
"Brother Zhe, are you going to take me to the wilderness?" Fatty Li trembled inexplicably after listening to Ning Zhe's words. When Li Dongbao was alive, he had to take him to hunt more than once, but Fatty Li once I shivered at the thought of the wild beasts in the wasteland, and dared not say anything.
"Brother, Fatty Li's courage is no worse than a mouse. Either let him go to the post, I'll go with you!" After listening to Ning Zhe's deployment, Lin Xun hurriedly interjected. He is a very straightforward man himself. Although he didn't dislike Fatty Li, he somewhat looked down on his cowardice.
"Letting you stay at the post is a condition given by the fortress people. They know the relationship between the two of us, so they will make you a hostage. As for Fatty Li, if you are really afraid, you can choose to stay." Ning Zhe saw that Seeing the fear deep in Fatty Li's eyes, he took the initiative to find a step for him.
"No, I'll go with you! In this way, I can also take care of you on behalf of Brother Pao!" Fatty Li hesitated for a while, then summoned up his courage to speak.
"Okay, then it's settled!" The reason why Ning Zhe wanted to bring Fatty Li was not because he needed his help, but because he was worried that he would stay in the market town by himself. Living on your own is indeed very dangerous, and although this guy has no fighting power, he has a good character. Even if he was scared by the wolves before, he urinated his pants, but at a critical moment, he still rushed up.
Although Fatty Li rushing up didn't have much value, at least it could prove that in this little fat man's heart, Ning Zhe and Lin Xun were both important people.
Because in a refugee area where it has nothing to do with oneself, no one will lay down their lives for irrelevant people! ?
