Among the **** canyon cabins.
Lin Xun looked at Ning Zhe, who had been with him since childhood, and suddenly felt a little strange: "Brother Zhe, do you really remember nothing? Including what you did just now?"
"Cough cough!"
Before Ning Zhe could answer, Li Dongbao in the distance suddenly coughed twice, then opened his eyes weakly: "Zhe, Brother Zhe..."
"Dongbao!" Ning Zhe rushed to Li Dongbao's side in two steps, and his heart froze when he saw his appearance.
Li Dongbao was shot in the lungs, and black-brown blood was already overflowing from the corners of his mouth.
In this wasteland, the simplest trauma and cold are enough to kill the refugees, and serious injury is equivalent to a sentence of death.
"Brother Zhe... I'm sorry... I hurt everyone... But, but this is not my intention..." Due to excessive blood loss, Li Dongbao's vision was already dark, and his eyes were empty looking at a direction where no one was.
"Don't blame yourself, I know you're not a bad person." Ning Zhe held Li Dongbao's palm, which was the last consolation he could bring to him.
"Brother Zhe! If there is... if it is possible... please take care of my brother... His name is Li Dongfa... at the north gate of the fortress... in the town of... If so, the body slumps.
"I promise you!"
In the face of Li Dongbao's death, Ning Zhe was very depressed, but he didn't show much grief and anger. A refugee like them, who was **** and tearful, was already numb to life and death.
If you don't die, you have to live, and if you die, it's not necessarily a liberation.
After a long while, Ning Zhe took out the piece of barbecue and put it in Li Dongbao's pocket. When Lin Xun saw this, he followed suit.
Not being a starving ghost is the best blessing the refugees give to the deceased.
"Wow!"
A deep and mournful wolf howl came from the ground like thunder, making the scalp numb.
"Crap! The smell of blood attracts wolves!" Lin Xun suddenly widened his eyes.
"Let's go!" Ning Zhe glanced at the purse at the waist of the bearded man, dragged it down, and ran out of the wooden house with Lin Xun.
…
Half an hour later, Ning Zhe and Lin Xun faced the night and walked home.
Ning Zhe was very lucky. In addition to a few hundred yuan in cash, there were several antibiotics in the bearded purse, which could be used to prevent his wounds from becoming infected. After listening to Lin Xun's description, a gleam appeared in his eyes. Surprised: "You mean, Dongbao died for me blocking the gun, and all those people in the house were also killed by me?"
"That's right! After our people ate those barbecued meats, they all fell down, and the bandits who entered the door killed them! Then you fought back!" Lin Xun nodded: "Brother Zhe, regarding what happened just now, Are you really unaware?"
Ning Zhe thought about it for a while, his head was splitting, but his mind was blank, as if Lin Xun was telling someone else's story.
"I saw your eyes at the time! That's what happens when a strange disease occurs! But this time you didn't faint, but went mad!" Lin Xun was also dazed, recalling Ning Zhe's terrifying appearance, Still terrified at this moment.
"What happened tonight, you must be rotten in your stomach. You must never mention it to anyone, understand?" Ning Zhe took a deep breath and looked at Lin Xun with a serious face. He didn't know why he became That look, but it is very clear that once this incident spreads, it must be very detrimental to him.
"Don't worry! I won't tell you!" Lin Xun recalled the reason why Ning Zhe contracted this strange disease, and couldn't help but ask again, "Brother Zhe, how did you kill that bear back then?"
"Don't ask!" Ning Zhe kept it a secret when he mentioned this. The experience of that night flashed through his mind and was quickly suppressed by him.
Lin Xun angrily stopped the topic: "Then what are we going to do next?"
"Go home and sleep." Ning Zhe paused: "Wake up, take revenge!"
