I really don't want to cross

Chapter 20 Not going over the mountain anymore?

Ka-!
The door of the compartment was opened, and several people came in, and the leader of them was Sifangchuan Iris, the ruler of the Iron Fortress.

Jiuzhi Laiqi and Huanghe Jibeitu guarded on both sides of Sifangchuan calamus, followed by those governing officials.

Seeing this, Wood frowned, with some doubts in his expression.

"Lord Calamus, why are you here?" Ikoma asked a little strangely. It's no wonder he asked this question. After Wuming told him that he and he were Kabaneri, there was basically nothing in this carriage. people.

The only one is Wood who is even weirder than Cabaneri...

Sifangchuan Calamus glanced around the carriage, looking very serious: "I'll just say it straight, can we... can we trust you? Is Kabaneri our enemy, or... a friend?"

"Master Calamus, you..."

Before Wuming and Ikoma could answer, the management officials behind Sifangchuan Iris were all shocked.

They were summoned by Calamus. Before they came, they didn't know the purpose of Calamus calling them here, but through the questioning just now, they also saw a clue, and they couldn't help panicking.

"Master Calamus, do you still need to ask such words, Kabane is definitely an enemy."

"As the person in charge of the Iron Fortress, I have to figure out whether you can be our partners." Sifang Chuan Iris ignored several management officials and continued to look at the two Wuming people.

Wuming and Ikoma looked at each other, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.

"I didn't expect you to be so courageous, Acorus. Aren't you afraid that the two of us will go crazy and bite you?" Wuming said with a trace of dissatisfaction, and looked at several management officials mockingly.

"nameless!"

Ikoma pulled Wuming: "Don't lose your temper." After that, he looked at Sifangchuan Iris and said: "We are naturally on the side of humans, at least Kabane will not regard us as partners."

The corner of Wood's mouth couldn't help twitching, what this guy said was really true.

But this is really strange. Although Kabaneri has a human heart, his body is the same as Kabane. Logically speaking, Kabane should be able to see them as partners.

But Cabanne was completely rude when he bit them.

Sifangchuan Iris showed a smile: "That's good, I want to ask you to help me guard the Iron Fortress together, and no one will restrict your actions in the future."

"Master Calamus..."

Several governing officials were still trying to persuade them, but they were interrupted by Arakawa Kibido: "This is very good. They have become our fighting force and can better protect the Kotetsu Castle."

"Which post will be at the next stop?" Wood, who hadn't interrupted, asked suddenly.

"what?"

Sifangchuan Calamus was taken aback, and replied: "We are going to the Yatsudai Station now, and we are going to replenish supplies there, that..." Her words paused, and only then did she realize that she didn't even know the boy's name.

And it's not just her, except for Wu Ming and Ikoma, no one knows Wood's name at all.

"Did you go over the mountain?"

Wood didn't bother to introduce himself to these people, but asked out the doubts that had always existed since these people came here.

Over the mountain?

Everyone was stunned, and Sifang Chuanchangpuqiao seemed very puzzled: "Why do you want to go over the mountain? There are many highlands on both sides of the railway on the mountain, and there is a danger of being invaded by Kabane."

Several governance officials nodded.

The corner of Wood's mouth twitched slightly. He really couldn't figure out why accidents still happened frequently after he had already reduced his sense of existence to such an extent.

If I remember correctly, this period of time should be when those governing officials seized power and then changed their way to the mountain.

Although it is said that in this way, several people in the carriages will be killed by Cabanne, but at least it is still under Wood's control; but now the route has not changed, what will be encountered on the road ahead, even Wood does not know. understood.

It would be better to let all the people in several carriages die.

"What's wrong with that...the route?"

Sifangchuan Calamus asked with some doubts, among the group of people, apart from the two Kabaneri, the young man in front of him was probably the most mysterious.

Possess powerful weapons.

According to Jiuzhi Laiqi, the other party seems to have a night vision ability.

Such a strange person, none of these people on the Iron Fortress knew him, as if he just appeared out of thin air.

But she was not wary of this person of unknown origin, or the people in the entire Iron Fortress, even a few management officials were not wary of Wood.

At first there was, but these people on the Iron Fortress are still talking about the previous act of delivering Kabane.

There is no doubt that this is a miracle.

Although it was not the main reason, it also prompted her to make the current decision.

"It's nothing, I heard that taking the mountain road is a shortcut to King Kong Guo, so I thought you would take the mountain road." Wood replied.

Although the route has changed, the destination has not.

And the normal route should be safer than the mountain road, so I don't have to worry about anything at all.

……

Although those people resisted Sifangchuan Calamus' decision, they didn't overreact.

A long-lost sense of calm greeted the entire Iron Fortress.

Everyone is looking forward to reaching the next station, and it would be best if they can stay in a safe station by then.

Although it is said that they are not restricting their freedom, Wuming and Ikoma still stayed in the last carriage to rest. Instead, they became one.

Ikoma became busy. He and the foreigner from Western Europe improved the samurai's steam system.

"Beep beep beep..."

Wuming put on a grimace, teasing Xiaoji in Qiang's arms.

Xiaoji is Shinano's daughter. After some discussion, the girl was finally named Xinji, because her birth was a miracle.

To be honest, Wood was a little surprised. Normally speaking, the chance of the child surviving in the end is very small in such a reckless caesarean section. Even if it survives, it should belong to the weak and sick type.

But Xiaoji is healthy.

Wood couldn't understand this phenomenon, and in the end it could only be attributed to the fact that the natural physical fitness of human beings in this world is better.

It's no wonder, after all, humans in this world have been ravaged by Kabane for more than 20 years.

Imagine those movies and novels about zombies at the end of the day. Every now and then, zombies appear for a few months, and human beings are basically extinct... If it lasts for 20 years, the word "basic" can probably be removed.

At this moment, a warning horn sounded in the carriage.

"We are about to enter Suguyi, an abandoned station that was occupied not long ago. Please be vigilant to prevent the next impact."

Speed ​​Valley station?
Wood was slightly stunned: "What happened to the inn that fell not long ago?"

"Have you forgotten? It was because of the fall of Suyaya Station that Kotetsu Castle arrived at Xianjin Station one day earlier." Ikoma held his strangely shaped weapon in his hand, with a nervous expression on his face.

"Oh."

Wood nodded, with a wry smile on his face.

after all……

Originally, this place should have been over the mountain.
