long night fire

"Okay, how can I pay you back later?" Jiang Baimian didn't waste time being polite.

"If the riot ends soon, drive to the guild. If not, drive to the outside of the city lord's mansion. There is a special pass in the car." Odick said simply.

Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian stopped talking, carried Lei Yunsong and Lin Feifei on their backs respectively, and rushed to the place near the gate of the First Hospital, used the key given by Odick, opened the door, got into the car, and drove out.

Until this time, the city lord's guards dispatched here had just arrived.

Because they had a special pass, they escaped the encirclement without any effort, exited North Street, and entered the central square.

When we got here, the gunshots became more and more obvious, coming from all directions. There were countless corpses on the ground, including adults, children, men, women, well-dressed, tattered, and incomplete corpses. Yes, some seemed to be strangled to death, some looked like city guards, and some held guns like ordinary hunters...

Their blood spilled on the ground, complementing a large number of bullet holes.

There were also quite a few people sitting at the corners of the streets, stuffing cornbread in their mouths, watching the commotion absentmindedly, neither joining nor resisting.

Seeing this scene, neither Jiang Baimian nor Shang Jianyao spoke for a while.

After a few seconds, Jiang Baimian took off the walkie-talkie again and tried to contact Bai Chen and Long Yuehong.

This time, there was an echo.

"Where are you?" Jiang Baimian tried to keep his tone steady so as not to make the team members panic and nervous.

Bai Chen's voice sounded with some noise:

"We're heading to the 'Afford Gun Shop'.

"When the homeless rushed in, we were still on the East Street, so we found a place to hide.

"Now that the first wave of riots has dispersed, a large number of people are no longer concentrated. We plan to go back and move the supplies in the room to the jeep, then drive to pick you up, leave through the city gate on East Street, and return to the city after the situation calms down. "

"Very good. Let's meet in the alley outside the 'Afu Gun Shop'." Jiang Baimian praised and signaled Shang Jianyao to drive Odick's red off-road into South Street.

The sound of Dangdang followed, and the occasional flying bullets were blocked by the thick steel plates and bulletproof glass installed on the vehicle.

The situation in South Street is more serious than in the central square, and there are even streams of blood flowing along the street.

A large number of people died on the street, corpses were everywhere, and some of them were still with their eyes open, full of unwillingness and doubts.

From time to time, one or two living people can be seen, but most of them are on the verge of dying, and they just instinctively groan in pain.

Jiang Baimian glanced at it, and suddenly pointed to a place:

"Drive over."

That was the first restaurant they ate after they came to Wild Grass City:

“Old-established Noodle House”

At that time, Jiang Baimian and others were deeply impressed by the boss's combination of many dialect accents and his insistence on borrowing books from the library to teach his grandson how to read.

The same goes for the delicious oily and spicy noodles.

At this time, the noodle shop was in a mess.

The boss with gray sideburns fell to the ground with a big hole in his forehead, his clothes were stained red with blood, and he was lifeless.

Behind him was a corner of the wall, squatting a seven or eight-year-old boy, trembling there.

A few books with mostly pictures were scattered around them.

On the other side of the noodle shop, at the only table that was not overturned, there were two people sitting.

One is a man who looks to be in his thirties, and the other is a little girl of seven or eight years old.

They buried their heads, hula la eating noodles in a big bowl, turning a blind eye to the chaos and gunfire outside, and turning a blind eye to it.

After Shang Jianyao stopped the car, Jiang Baimian immediately opened the door and jumped down. While raising his hand to aim at the man eating noodles, he moved quickly to the noodle shop owner and the little boy behind him.

She didn't need to do other tests, she could tell from the electrical signal that the boss was dead.

The man eating noodles hurriedly dug the remaining green onions in the bowl into his mouth, licked the ends of the chopsticks, and stood up with a lot of satisfaction, blocking the little girl behind him.

The little girl's face was dirty, but her eyes were bright.

She didn't stop, and ate the remaining noodles in two bites.

Shang Jianyao recognized the man. He had bronze skin, a face with Chinese characters, and a rather simple and honest appearance. He was the wilderness wanderer who answered Odick's question and told him the whereabouts of the fake "priest".

Seeing Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao pointing their guns at him, the wanderer in the wilderness showed a smile uglier than crying:

"Shoot, I killed you.

"He didn't give us food, so I had to grab it and cook it myself...

"Otherwise, people will starve to death."

Recalling this incident, his expression became a little distorted, and his voice became a lot louder:

"Everyone is human, don't we deserve to live?

"We're human too, so we deserve to starve to death?"

Jiang Baimian looked at him and the little girl behind him reluctantly putting down the tableware, and did not pull the trigger for a long time.

After a few seconds, there was a bang, and the man fell down, with blood gushing from his chest.

It was Shang Jianyao who shot.

The little girl watched this scene numbly, neither crying nor shouting.

Jiang Baimian tilted his head slightly and looked at Shang Jianyao. He was holding a gun in both hands, aiming forward, with a serious expression on his face.

Looking away, Jiang Baimian quickly ordered:

"Take both of them with you, and join Xiaobai and the others."

If they were left alone, the two children would not have a chance to survive in this chaotic situation.

At that time, wait until Wild Grass City restores its stability, and then find a way to resettle it.

Shang Jianyao nodded, and escorted the two children into the red cross-country, one squeezed into the back seat with the unconscious Lei Yunsong and Lin Feifei, and the other entered the co-pilot, staying beside Jiang Baimian.

The two children did not cry or resist, and seemed to have been terrified.

When the vehicle gradually moved away from the "Time-honored Noodle Shop", the little boy and the little girl seemed to wake up and threw themselves on the window at the same time.

Looking at the two corpses, they shouted heartbreakingly:

"grandfather!"

"father!"

……

In the alley where "Afu Gun Shop" is located.

In a hurry, Long Yuehong swung her right arm and pulled the trigger.

boom!

A homeless man with a knife jumped out from nowhere and fell on his back, his body twitching.

Compared to the beginning, Long Yuehong is quite calm now.

There were not ten, but seven or eight wanderers who died in the wilderness.

After he and Bai Chen left the hiding place on the East Street, they returned to the "Afu Gun Shop" along the least crowded route, but even so, they encountered many wilderness wanderers and robbers The villains of this city.

After a little panic at the beginning, Long Yuehong found out that these people were not very good at marksmanship, and their skills were not very good. As long as they avoided crowded groups and did not rush to places where bullets were flying, with the cooperation of herself and Bai Chen, , fully able to cope.

The only thing to worry about is that the ammunition you carry with you is only consumed and there is no time to replenish it.

Of course, the journey was not without danger. Long Yuehong and Bai Chen encountered a city defense army team cleaning up the wanderers in the wilderness. They didn't know that this team was nervous and overreacted, and they also regarded them as rioters. , still felt that there were only two of them, alone and alone, and tried to annihilate them.

Fortunately, there were only five people in that team, and Bai Chen saw through their intentions in advance. After a chaotic battle, they left two corpses and retreated to other alleys.

This made Long Yuehong a little scared, but also a little excited.

Because he killed one of the city defense troops with a headshot.

For him, this is a remarkable achievement.

Entering "A Fu Gun Shop", Bai Chen's eyes swept away, and his heart suddenly sank.

Many of the guns that were sold here were missing, it was in a mess and looked like it had been snatched.

Almost at the same time, there were gunshots upstairs.

The sound stopped and went on and on, which made people worry.

"Aunt Nan..." Long Yuehong glanced at Bai Chen and said a name.

Bai Chen's expression remained unchanged, and she nodded:

"Let's go up and see."

After finishing speaking, she added another sentence:

"There are still a lot of supplies in the room."

"Okay." Long Yuehong didn't object, but put away the "Ice Moss" with a hot barrel, replaced it with a "United 202" pistol, and loaded it with bullets.

When they came to the back door of "Afu Gun Shop", they passed through the door opening, looked at the yard, and made sure that the Jeep was still parked at the original location.

Obviously, the wilderness wanderers who rushed here were not interested in the car for the time being, and they didn't realize that there were a lot of supplies hidden in the car.

Turning to the stairs, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen saw corpses one after another.

They were men and women, lying on their backs or lying on their backs, all of whom were shot to death.

Bai Chen scanned it quickly, and subconsciously quickened her pace.

When approaching the second floor, the gunshots from above rang out again.

Bai Chen pressed her back very low and moved up cautiously, Long Yuehong imitated her movements and followed closely behind.

Rounding the corner, they saw five or six men with weapons shooting someone in a room on the second floor.

In front of them, the corpses were densely packed, almost piled up.

Without hesitation, Bai Chen raised his hands and shot continuously at the group of men who looked like wanderers in the wilderness. Long Yuehong did the same without asking any further questions.

Bang bang bang!

Cooperating with the counterattack inside, they emptied the bullets and cleared all the enemies in front.

"It's us!" Immediately afterwards, Bai Chen shouted loudly.

Aunt Nan's voice came out immediately:

"Come up quickly."

Bai Chen and Long Yuehong ran up, and saw a bunch of people hiding in that room, including Aunt Nan, Gu Changle and other shareholders of "A Fu Gun Shop", and women of different ages who were engaged in skin business, They huddled inside, trembling slightly.

And it was An Ruxiang who guarded the door and prevented a wanderer from the wilderness from rushing up.

The relic hunter and "temporary teacher" was holding a pistol, half squatting, leaning against the wall, his expression was still indifferent, and he looked very calm.

Aunt Nan’s younger brother Ah Fu is responsible for loading bullets and handing guns.

Seeing Bai Chen and Long Yuehong coming up, An Ruxiang sat down suddenly, panting heavily.

A rare smile appeared on her face, clean and pure.

Chapter 55 Back on North Street

North Street, City Lord's Mansion.

Xu Liyan, who returned to his familiar homeland, was no longer panicked and uneasy, and became calm and confident again.

"How's the situation now?" he asked the assistant who rushed over.

His assistant is a middle-aged man who is nearly forty years old. He has experienced the two eras of Hulde and Xu Wugong, and has seen several rebellions and coups. He is very calm at this time:

"Mr. Odick has sent the criminal suspected of 'Father' over, and wants to see you.

"The wilderness wanderers who rushed in grabbed a lot of weapons and food, and they are gathering in the central square, as if they want to attack Beijie.

"They are evolving from an unorganized state to a real group, and the city defense army suffered a heavy blow at the very beginning. Several teams lost their organizational structure and were scattered in different places in the city. They can only do the most preliminary defense And cleanup, which could be overwhelmed by riots at any moment.

"After the City Lord's Guard you sent out left the First Hospital, it went to the North Bridge and the Municipal Building for reinforcements. It has now joined the City Guard over there. With their weapons, it is not a problem to guard for a period of time, but the number is too small. Yes, too few."

This is said by a relatively large number of wilderness wanderers.

Compared with almost dying just now, the current situation is no longer imminent. Xu Liyan walked back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back, and asked in a soft voice:
