Catastrophe
Chapter 57: Careful cooperation
The weather in the wasteland is changeable, especially in Beihuang, which has a complex geographical location. It may still rain the day before, but the next day it is snowing heavily. Every winter, countless people are frozen to death in the wilderness.
The acid rain started in the middle of the night, and it did not stop until the early morning. Instead, there were signs that it was getting bigger and bigger. The spherical lightning outside kept falling, causing waves of tremors.
Under such circumstances, Ye Peng, no matter how arrogant, did not have the strength to compete with Ning Zhe, but he did not come forward directly, but sent Zhang Fang to negotiate with Ning Zhe and the others.
Zhang Fang walked over to Ning Zhe and the others, and looked at him: "Captain Ye and Professor Xie asked me to ask you, if you can share some of your food with us, we can buy it!"
"How much?" Ning Zhe and Zhang Fang glanced at each other, but didn't choose to refuse. The rain outside the cave didn't seem to stop in a short time. If they kept holding on to the food, the relationship between the two sides would definitely change. It broke down, so it was inevitable to give up some food. Since he had money to make, Ning Zhe was also going to give the other a step up. Besides, after he returned to the market town, he also needed money to live.
"Four thousand yuan, this is all the money we have." Zhang took out a thick stack of Pei's currency in his pocket. In the federation, every chaebol has its own currency, but these money It can only be used in the territory where the chaebol is issued, and in other areas that have dealings with the chaebol.
"Fatty, take half of our drinking water and food and give them to them." Ning Zhe happily took the money and handed it to Fatty Li beside him. This decision seemed very generous, but he couldn't help thinking, because Ning Zhe happily The remaining half of Zhe's food was eaten with Fatty Li, and the food that Zhang Fang took away had to be shared with seven people. For this result, Ning Zhe did not bear it in his heart, and had a clear conscience, because he had previously When the test team had supplies, they didn't even give them a grain of rice.
"Hey, great!" Fatty Li was holding the money, his hands were shaking with excitement. The workers in the refugee area were only paid five yuan a day, but now he has ten thousand yuan on him, which is the first time in his life. Seen so much money at once.
After Ning Zhe waited for Fatty Li to hand over the supplies to Zhang Fang, he thought for a while, then took out two extra pieces of meat and handed them over: "I gave it to you personally."
"Thank you!" Zhang Fang was slightly startled and nodded in thanks.
"You're welcome." Ning Zhe smiled, then lowered his head and ate the roasted beetle. The reason why he was willing to help was not only to repay the life-saving grace, but also to feel that he couldn't have a too tense relationship with the mercenary, and Zhang Fang was here. He seems to be not bad, whether it was saving them in Snake Valley before or Zhang Fang's willingness to give his food to others the night before, it all proves that this person is affectionate and righteous.
…
The acid rain lasted longer than Ning Zhe expected. In the blink of an eye, two days had passed, but the rain outside still showed no signs of stopping. Although Sun Liang, the injured mercenary, took antibiotics, his condition was still very bad. , has begun to have a fever, and the wound on the leg has begun to ooze pus.
To make matters worse, the food that Ye Peng and the others bought from Ning Zhe had already been eaten.
People can survive on an empty stomach for a few days, but without water, they can't survive for too long. That night, the injured Sun Liang couldn't bear it any longer. Holding his broken water bottle, he limped toward the entrance of the cave. go.
"Sun Liang! What are you doing?!" Seeing this, another mercenary looked up at him.
"Get the rain!" Sun Liang limped towards the entrance of the cave, leaning against the wall.
"Are you crazy? Drinking acid rain will kill you!" The teammates shouted.
"Drinking rainwater, at least I can live now! If I don't drink it, I'll die faster!" Sun Liang threw a word and continued forward, the gun on his shoulder kept colliding with the mountain wall, making a sound.
On the edge of the bonfire in front, Ning Zhe turned his back to Sun Liang, but gently pulled out his knife in his arms, while Ren Jiao, who was sleeping opposite him, also turned over gently, opened his eyes and looked at Ning Zhe. At a glance, the knife under the body was exposed at the same time, and the muscles on the body were constantly switching between tension and relaxation, which was a warm-up preparation.
Ning Zhe narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw Ren Jiao's appearance. He didn't expect this woman to be so vigilant.
"Tap!"
Sun Liang quickly passed by Ning Zhe and the others. When he was parallel to Ning Zhe, he suddenly grabbed his gun and smashed it towards the back of Ning Zhe's head.
"flap!"
The moment Sun Liang made his move, Ning Zhe suddenly burst into flames, grabbed the opponent's neck with one hand, and stabbed him in the chest with a knife.
"Pfft!"
The blade entered the body, and a line of blood overflowed from the corner of Sun Liang's mouth.
"Fuck you...!" A mercenary behind saw Ning Zhe's movements and reached out to touch the gun on the side.
Ren Jiao's reaction was faster than the other party's. At the same time that Ning Zhe was violent, she was already eyeing Sun Liang's weapon, grabbing the gun, pulling the bolt, and shooting, all in one go.
"boom!"
A gunshot rang out in the cave, and the mercenary in the distance was shot in the arm holding the gun, let out a scream, and leaned against the wall behind.
"what!"
Gao Shengrong next to him was sprayed with blood, and screamed in fright. Xie Guangkun and Pei Xiangtong also looked stunned, and they didn't seem to expect that this group of refugees would actually dare to attack the fortress.
"Don't move!" Ren Jiao turned the gun's muzzle and aimed in the direction of Ye Peng and Zhang Fang. She raised her gun neatly, even more standard than those mercenaries.
Ning Zhe killed the attackers nearby, and Ren Jiao seized the gun to suppress the situation. The cooperation between the two was extremely tacit.
"Are you colluding? Are you going to rob our food, right?" Ning Zhe saw that Ren Jiao was in control of the situation, and turned his attention to the fortress. The soldier with the gun seems to be questioning the others: "I have already allocated half of the food to you, and those things are to keep you alive, not to keep you full! You don't know moderation, you blame me. on the head?"
"That's right! I just colluded with Sun Liang, so what? How can you lowly refugees be able to fill their stomachs! But we need to be hungry? We don't want to kill people, we just want to live!" The servant Bing let out a frantic roar, UU reading www.uukanshu.com looked at Ye Peng with his chest heaving: "Captain! These **** still have food! As long as we rob them, we can live!"
"boom!"
Ye Peng waved his arm, pulled out his hand and grabbed the mercenary headshot, and said calmly: "Everyone has reached a dead end, what everyone has to do is to get out of the predicament together! Any negative emotions now will push us away. To the abyss! From now on, I don't want any more infighting in the team!"
"Fatty, bring them some food." Ning Zhe saw Ye Peng's actions and returned to the bonfire.
In the face of the firearms that were snatched by Ren Jiao, Ye Peng thought for a while, but did not ask for them, because of their fighting power, he was the only one left, and there was another one who seemed to have a good relationship with Ning Zhe and the others. Trust Zhang Fang.
Ye Peng's shot just now made Ning Zhe even more nervous. This mercenary officer, who would have taken the risk of attracting wild beasts before, had to take the wounded soldier Sun Liang on the road, but he was killed again just now. one's own.
Ning Zhe understood Ye Peng's intentions. He was using this method to tell others that he did not participate in the plan to **** the supplies, and it also showed his determination to complete the task in unity.
But no matter what, the two mercenaries died because of Ning Zhe. Ye Peng can ignore it now, but after returning to the fortress?
Lin Xun was still at the outpost of the fortress at the moment, Ning Zhe could not turn his face against the scientific expedition team, but if Ye Peng, who was protecting the calf, really returned to the fortress, he would definitely take revenge on Ning Zhe, no matter if it was to fight back for being left in the wilderness The face, or revenge for his soldiers.
Ning Zhe looked at the beating flames, his brows furrowed, things were really getting more and more troublesome! ?
