long night fire

Jiang Baimian let out an "uh":

"Before Shang Jian Yao kills the motorcyclist and angers that guy, I have two options.

"One is to surrender immediately to shorten the distance. As long as I can enter a certain range, even if I am seriously injured by them and cannot move, I still have the means to counterattack."

Having said that, she laughed teasingly:

"The biggest problem with this plan is that Bai Chen and I have a good chance of surviving and becoming captives, at least for a short time, and you two are likely to be shot directly, unless one of them prefers men. of."

Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong's expressions instantly became quite complicated.

Seeing their reactions, Jiang Baimian said in a good mood:

"The second solution is to take advantage of that guy's too many scruples and his timid mentality, and design a trap so that he can't dodge in advance, and as long as I don't dodge in advance, I have a good chance of hitting him and not being protected The key to getting up."

"What kind of trap?" Long Yuehong blurted out.

Jiang Baimian looked at him for two seconds, spread his hands and said:

"Not ready yet."

"..." The facial muscles of Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao faintly twitched.

Jiang Baimian suddenly "turned into anger":

"It happened so suddenly, how could it be possible to think about it so quickly?

"Things change while I'm still thinking about it, and I don't need to waste my brainpower anymore!"

She then turned her head to look at Bai Chen who was listening quietly:

"Do you have anything to add?"

Bai Chen thought for a while and said:

"The purpose of most bandits in the wilderness is to rob supplies, not kill people.

"If there is really no way, I will consider giving up the jeep and the supplies inside, such as letting the vehicle rush into the swamp without driving to attract their attention, and then take the opportunity to hide in the swamp in another direction.

"In many places in the Great Swamp, people can barely walk, but those wearing exoskeleton devices cannot, and the weight exceeds the standard."

After listening, Jiang Baimian nodded in satisfaction:

"That's right, these are the different angles of thinking between the wanderer in the wilderness and the person born in a big force when dealing with the same thing.

"Have you learned it?"

Clap, clap, Shang Jianyao applauded without losing the opportunity, and Di Long Yuehong also clapped subconsciously.

What am I doing... Long Yuehong quickly realized, and responded embarrassingly:

"Learned, but slowly digest and absorb."

After replaying the battle during the day, the four of them were grouped according to yesterday's grouping, taking turns guarding each other.

Because it had just rained, it was much colder than last night, and the charcoal provided by Tian Erhe for free was limited. They took out thick cotton coats from the trunk and wrapped them around their bodies.

The rain was splashing, washing everything in the dark night that covered everything, and it didn't stop completely until the sky gradually became brighter.

Shuiwei Town has a mature and complete drainage system, so there is no water accumulation, but the ground is wet, and some of the soil has become muddy.

In the morning, he got into the water, ate the compressed biscuits, and began to replace parts for the jeep, doing not-too-difficult repairs.

At this time, Tian Erhe walked over in the early morning mist, and asked with a smile:

"Bai girl, can you fix it?

"If it can be repaired, we will receive the light machine gun and motorcycle."

"Yes." Bai Chen raised her hand as a gesture without turning her head.

Tian Erhe immediately greeted the surrounding town guard members:

"Here, bring that machine gun.

"Oh, I feel that you have given too much. Otherwise, I will add another tent to you?"

"Okay." Jiang Baimian had no objection.

At this time, Tian Erhe saw the black marsh iron snake skin on the roof of the jeep.

"This..." His eyes widened, "What did you do?"

When the jeep came over yesterday, the sky was already dark because of the dark clouds. They didn't see clearly what was tied to the roof of the car, and thought it was a black tent.

Following Tian Erhe's gaze, the surrounding town guard members all saw the oppressive snake skin.

"Black Swamp Iron Snake..." Someone whispered this nightmarish name.

Jiang Baimian laughed lightly and said:

"This guy is so big we just have to peel the skin off."

The people in Shuiwei Town fell silent, and Jiang Baimian was a little embarrassed by the silence.

It's okay for her to be idle, she looked at the gradually bustling town, and asked tentatively:

"Mayor, can we walk around and have a look?"

"Okay, where do you want to go, I will take you there?" Tian Erhe lifted the hat on his head, "How about going to the classroom? Aren't you very interested in our classroom?"

Under the clear morning light, the wrinkles on his face became more striking and deeper.

"Okay." Jiang Baimian turned to Shang Jianyao and said, "Follow me. Long Yuehong, help Bai Chen look around."

Shang Jianyao did not refuse, and followed Jiang Baimian and Tian Erhe to the three buildings in the shape of "pin".

On the way, they passed through areas where various houses were chaotically built. They saw holes in some walls, which could only be blocked with wood and hay. A certain tent became wet in the rain last night, and it seemed to be a little leaky. People with yellow faces, skinny faces and tattered clothes were running to different places.

After passing through here, there is the small square made of cement.The flagpole on the flag-raising platform remains the same, but the flag is gone.

Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian continued to follow Tian Erhe, bypassed the front building, entered the left one of the two rear buildings, and went up to the third floor.

There is a corridor with guardrails on one side, and houses divided into small rooms on the other side. The light is quite sufficient and the ventilation is also very good.

After walking a few steps, Tian Erhe led the two of them to stop in front of a fairly large room.

Through the bright and clean glass windows, Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian saw a dozen or twenty tables and chairs inside, the aisle was very narrow, and the gaps were small.

At this time, a dozen or twenty half-grown children under the age of ten were wearing all kinds of tattered clothes that were not clean enough, sitting behind the table or on chairs, looking up at the podium, and listening attentively to the teacher's lecture.

Some of them trembled slightly, as if they were not used to the cold in the morning, and some of them hung their younger siblings in swaddling clothes on their chests, coaxing them from time to time.

There are men and women, and they all look different, but they all have straight backs and sit upright.

Shang Jianyao glanced over and saw the schedule they posted on the wall:

"Morning exercises... Common sense... Chinese... Mathematics... History..."

"This is a middle-grade student." Tian Erhe introduced in a low voice, as if he didn't want to disturb the children inside.

Jiang Baimian looked at it intently for a few seconds, and said "hmm":

"Let's go, don't disturb them."

After visiting Shuiwei Town with Tian Erhe, the two returned to the wooden shed. At this time, Bai Chen had already repaired the jeep.

Because the food in Shuiwei Town is not enough, and the meat is even more scarce, Jiang Baimian did not try to trade again, and said to Tian Erhe:

"Mayor, we have to go."

Tian Erhe nodded slightly:

"Hope to see you again."

"Yes." Jiang Baimian nodded with a smile.

"Yes." Bai Chen responded at the same time.

They quickly packed up their belongings and got into the jeep.This time, it was opened by Jiang Baimian.

As the jeep drove slowly towards the gate with the barbed wire, Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong and the others looked at the densely built and chaotic area again.

The townspeople there have gone out to the fields or hunted, and only a few are at home.

It made the place look dilapidated and decayed.

In the wordless silence, Shang Jianyao and others suddenly heard a neat and immature voice from the deepest building:

"The bright moonlight in front of the bed,

"It's suspected to be frost on the ground.

"Look up at the moon,

"Low your head and think about your hometown."

Note 1: The above poem is quoted from Li Bai's "Thoughts at a Quiet Night".

Chapter 33 First point

Long Yuehong opened her mouth in the vaguely resounding voices in Shuiwei Town, but she didn't know what to say. She only felt that the feeling was extremely complicated and difficult to describe in words.

None of the four spoke, and seemed to be listening intently until the jeep drove out of the gate and headed into the distance.

"What are they reading aloud? I didn't hear it clearly." Jiang Baimian glanced at the rearview mirror with a slightly annoyed tone.

"Moonlight in front of the bed." Shang Jianyao repeated the beginning of "Quiet Night Thoughts".

"That's it..." Jiang Baimian sighed for a while, but didn't say any more words.

She drove the car carefully, letting the Jeep drive quietly on the difficult roads that criss-crossed the swamp.

After leaving this area completely, Bai Chen looked ahead and said to himself:

"Part of the reason I want to be a full member of the company is that you can borrow a lot of books."

"It's okay..." Long Yuehong, who lived in "Pangaea" since she was a child, didn't think it was special. "Are there no books or libraries in the city ruins of the old world?"

Bai Chen's gaze seems to be far away:

"Yes, in the beginning, there were many, but at that time, I was not born.

"Later, many books were moved away by powerful forces and some people, and the remaining parts were used as firewood that was easy to ignite by relic hunters and wilderness wanderers, and were bitten and torn by rats and other animals. Very few can be found, able to read.

"There may still be a large number of books in the ruins of cities that have not been explored much, but those places are too dangerous."

After a short silence, Shang Jianyao asked with a leap of thought:

"Are you literate?"

"Well, my father and mother taught me. After they died, they left me a very good teacher." Bai Chen's expression gradually softened, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

But her eyes were a little divergent, as if she woke up from a dream in the middle of the night and was sitting with her knees hugged, looking out of the window without focus.

Jiang Baimian glanced sideways at Bai Chen, and continued to stare ahead.

She smiled and said:

"Can you talk a little louder?

"Is this bullying my poor hearing? I wonder if you are behind my back and talking bad things about me."

Long Yuehong's heart skipped a beat, and she whispered:

"We all said it to your face."

"We all said it in front of your face." At the same time, Shang Jianyao responded to Jiang Baimian's "accusation".

Long Yuehong was suddenly a little happy:

"Haha, how is it? Do I understand you well? I can follow your train of thought!"

"How do you know I didn't ask you to follow on purpose?" Shang Jianyao didn't back down.

"That's right. When you go out for training, you must pay attention to the team atmosphere. It must be serious and lively. Otherwise, your spirit will be too tense and you will overwhelm yourself in a short time." Jiang Baimian commented casually, "Okay, Let’s not talk about that, let’s discuss Mayor Tian’s experience, and see what useful things can be summed up from the details he described, er, it’s mainly about the destruction of the old world.”

Shang Jianyao seemed to have thought about it a long time ago, and immediately said:

"'Mindless' are mostly found in larger cities, with few in rural and small towns."

"The destruction of villages and small towns looks more like a combination of war and geological disasters," Bai Chen added.

Jiang Baimian nodded slightly:

"War and geological catastrophe may be equated.
