Catastrophe
Chapter 39: Sophie's friend
The next morning, Ning Zhe got up early, took Lin Xun and Fatty Li out, and went to the commercial street of the market town to buy things.
"Hey!"
Just as the three of them walked to the entrance of the alley, Fatty Li suddenly heard someone calling him. He glanced sideways, and happened to see Jin Zhi lying by the window, and then pointed to his nose: "You called me?"
"Hey! Come here, I'll show you something good!" Jin Zhi beckoned.
"Good stuff? What good stuff?" Fatty Li stared at his ignorant little eyes and leaned over curiously.
"Snapped!"
Just as Fatty Li approached, Jin Zhi suddenly stretched out his hand, and faced Fatty Li with a big mouth on his face.
"Gudong!"
Fatty Li was beaten and sat on the ground, looking at Jin Zhi with a confused expression: "Why do you beat people?"
"Forget it! She's a lunatic! I forgot to remind you before! Stay away from her in the future!" Lin Xun saw this scene and held back a smile and helped Fatty Li up.
"Mad man?" Fatty Li was speechless when he saw the golden branch retracting back into the darkness, but after taking a few steps, he suddenly realized that the pain in his abdomen due to the inflammation of the wound seemed to have eased a lot.
…
Ning Zhe and his party tossed to 8:30 when they heard the sound of the bell in the fortress and walked towards the east gate together.
As soon as he approached the east gate, Ning Zhe saw the crazy Zhuo Mingyuan from a distance.
In just a few days, Zhuo Mingyuan seems to have changed as a person. Now a suit has been taken away from him. I don't know where he got a torn quilt around him, and he is lying on the root of the city wall. The sun, perhaps because he wandered near the city wall every day, was lucky enough to escape the attack of the wolves last night.
Ning Zhe walked to Zhuo Mingyuan and handed him a bean cake: "Do you still know me?"
"Sheep...hehehe!" Zhuo Mingyuan took the bean cake with a dull gaze, showing a smirk: "Sheep! Have you ever seen a sheep? Sheep has five fingers!"
Seeing Zhuo Mingyuan's appearance, Ning Zhe sighed slightly. This is a desolate era. It's not easy for everyone to live. Zhuo Mingyuan's situation is not an exception. He usually doesn't have much time to pay attention to Zhuo Ming. Yuan lived a long time, but Zhuo Mingyuan was able to live until now, which at least shows that the restaurant owner has not broken his promise.
At this time, two people in the distance came to the city gate. The strong man among them nodded to Ning Zhe: "Hello, you are Ning Zhe! We are Su Fei's friends!"
"Well, how are you!" Ning Zhe glanced at each other after listening to the self-introductions of the two, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
The people who came were all wearing the tattered clothes of the refugees, and their faces were dark, but one of them was obviously a woman, and the other man was also burly, actually a bit stronger than Ning Zhe.
If Ning Zhe hadn't lost his memory, he would have recognized them. The two were the pair of men and women who had rescued him from Li Bin before.
"Brother Ning Zhe, we are going to act with you in the next period of time. If there is any trouble for you, please bear with me!" The strong man gave Ning Zhe a simple and honest smile and introduced himself: " Hello, my name is Tu Shi, and this girl's name is Ren Jiao!"
"It's a little inconvenient for a woman to go to the wasteland. If something goes wrong, I can't guarantee her safety. If you want to survive, it's best not to follow." Ning Zhe still felt a little bit conflicted about the appearance of a woman in the team. , Because Ren Jiao in front of her is well developed, but she looks too thin.
Tu Shi seemed to sense that Ning Zhe was reluctant to take a woman on the road, and explained with a smile: "Brother Ning, don't worry, Xiaojiao is still very smart."
Ning Zhe did not agree with Tu Shi's words, and retorted without shyness: "The danger in the wilderness is more serious than you think! Relying on intelligence alone is not enough!"
A splendid and prosperous city, with soldiers and horses in chaos, is the best portrayal of women in this era.
Smart and beautiful women will not be sought after and admired by everyone in refugee areas. The common way for such beautiful women to survive in refugee areas is to actively or passively please men in prostitutes in exchange for survival materials. As for really wanting to get married and live together, men are willing to take some strong women instead.
Everyone has a love for beauty, but a woman who is too weak and beautiful will not only attract other people's coveting, but also cannot perform heavy physical labor. In short, marriage in a refugee area is more like a cooperative survival. A beautiful wife whose ten fingers do not touch the spring water is wasting food and making life more difficult.
"What do you mean, look down on women?" After listening to Ning Zhe's words, Ren Jiao frowned and looked at him: "I can take care of myself, and I don't need you to worry about my safety!"
"Since you insist on going, I won't express my opinion, but let's say in advance that as Su Fei's friends, I will do my best to take care of you, but if there is any problem that I can't solve, I can only let you live on your own. Destroyed!" Ning Zhe did not have any emotional change because of Ren Jiao's response, and spoke his heart in a calm tone.
"Humph! It's uncertain who will save who!" Ren Jiao muttered softly, turning her face to one side.
"Boom!"
After a short while, the gate of the fortress slowly rose, and when the refugees outside the city saw this, they all hid far away, for fear that if they stayed for a long time, if they got in the way of the people in the city, they would give it to themselves. provoke calamity.

This was the first time that Ning Zhe was so close to the opened city gate. Looking inside along the city gate, there was only a huge dark tunnel. There was nothing else. This tunnel was either very long or curved. Facilities such as a road or a shadow wall are used to block the view from the outside.
"Tuk Tuk Tuk!"
A troop of horses marched quickly, and quickly ran over in front of everyone, and then several hedgehog cars followed, and the scale was obviously larger than the previous two days. Ning Zhe heard Zhao Yi mention it before, saying that he saw a hedgehog. The car pulled the corpse back, presumably these guys caught the demon, and it was not smooth.
In the past two days, Ning Zhe has heard a lot of rumors about demons. He heard that some people can summon weapons out of thin air, and some people can control water and fire. According to Su Fei's explanation, this is because the cells in their bodies have evolved some kind of The magnetic field can resonate to a certain extent with the elements of nature, but Ning Zhe is skeptical about this statement. At least he has never seen the so-called awakening of demons in the market town. It seems that people whose cells can evolve, After all, it is a minority, because in the face of excessive radiation, more normal people respond to cell mutation, but not to have any ability, but to develop cancer.
Before the smoke and dust rolled up by the horse team could disperse, another train team drove out of the gate and parked on the open ground outside the gate. There were six cars in this team, two of which were off-road vehicles that Ning Zhe had seen the night before. The remaining four are hedgehogs. Two of the hedgehogs are behind each with a bucket, one is empty, and the other is covered with a rain cloth.
When the smoke cleared, the door of an off-road vehicle opened. The mercenary officer Jing Hongwei, who had led Ning Zhe away from the post the night before, stood outside the vehicle arrogantly and walked over. ?
