When the apocalypse comes, salted fish will only make bubbles

The Flame Mountain Base has never been as lively as it is today.

The originally bleak and desolate base became overcrowded overnight. As far as the eye could see, every place where one could set foot was crowded with people taking a rest.

The people who arrived here were basically people with various means of transportation. They relied on their advantages to closely follow the vanguard of the army, and were the first to arrive at the Flame Mountain base.

There are some very powerful teams among them, such as Tang Shisen's Shuguang Group.

Although Tang Shisen had been working hard to prepare for the eastward move, the sudden evacuation still disrupted his plan to a great extent.

The hasty evacuation inevitably caused various loopholes, and even two large vehicles were lost during the escape. In the end, they had to abandon them all in the desert.

At this moment, he had just returned from patrolling the team, and the spies who had gone out to inquire for information happened to greet him.

"Boss Tang!"

Tang Shisen didn't waste any time and directly asked him the question he was most concerned about: "You're back, how are you? Is there any new news from the army?"

Their team was keeping an eye on the movements of the troops in the Imperial Capital the most closely, but in view of the power of the Pei family's eldest son, they did not show it too obviously.

Even for camping and resting, I chose a location some distance away from the imperial team.

He didn't dare to blatantly take advantage of the situation, so he could only send more informants. If there was any trouble in ordinary people, he would be the quickest to follow it.

After hearing the question, the spy wiped the sweat from his head and shook his head:

"Not yet, but the pioneers they sent out haven't moved since they arrived at the outskirts of the no-man's land, saying they are still waiting for a decision from above."

Tang Shisen didn't have much doubt about this: "I heard that people from the Flame Mountain Base have set up many traps there. I think they are obstacles and it will take time to clear them."

"Yes, the clearing work is still being done."

The spy nodded repeatedly and continued: "I saw it from a distance. Those traps seemed to be more powerful than those on the edge of the desert, so they were very careful."

"Is that so?"

Tang Shisen murmured, "It's not surprising that there are traps. What's strange is why the people at the Flame Mountain Base must guard against the no-man's land."

Is it possible that there are a lot of zombies imprisoned there? !

"What's the situation in the no-man's land?"

"Back to boss, not yet, but I have asked the brothers who are left behind to pay more attention. Once there is news, I will report back as soon as possible."

After hearing the answer he wanted, Tang Shisen temporarily relaxed. After all, they had made up their mind to follow the people in the imperial capital. Since everyone was as stable as a rock, why should he be impatient? They would just wait together.

"Well, well done. Thank you for your hard work. Hurry up and get food and water. Hurry up. You have to keep an eye on things outside."

"Yes."

As soon as the spy turned around, he suddenly remembered something: "That...boss,"

"Is there anything else?"

The spy scratched his head and spoke as if gossiping:

"Speaking of water, I happened to hear the news that a water source was found somewhere behind. People from the government department only told those who don't have water to get it."

Their team had drinking water reserves, so he didn't take it seriously, but it was exciting news anyway, and he felt uncomfortable not to say it.

Unexpectedly, this news attracted Tang Shisen's attention. He raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "Is there a water source? Where is it?"

He has always taken one step at a time and looked at ten steps. The loopholes that appeared during the migration have taught him a lesson. Even if they have water storage, it does not mean that they will have no worries once and for all.

It’s great to have a water source!

Maybe if you think of a way, they can get a share of the pie. Water is a consumable resource. Of course, the more you save, the better.

But his wishes are beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

The spy's next reply made him immediately put down this idea:

"Oh, this is far away. We have to walk back almost half the distance. There will be no one there further back. To be honest, it was too late to discover this water source. Many people were shaken after hearing this. Head, water is indeed important, but no one wants to spend the effort to go back to get water."

After a pause, he added something more: "Oh! Because of this, the government's water storage trucks are circulating to distribute drinking water, which has also solved many problems."

Tang Shisen sighed leisurely while listening:

"...All we have seen along the way is yellow sand and wasteland. We have never seen a place where water can be hidden. It is a strange thing."

Because of this, he was suddenly curious about the origin of this water source: "Have you ever heard how it was discovered? Was the discoverer a water or earth superpower?"

The spy had eight hundred eyes, so of course he would not miss this key point. He sorted out his thoughts a little, and suddenly started to talk in a funny way:

"...Well, it doesn't seem like someone with super powers discovered it, oh! There is a very funny saying, saying that there was a boy who couldn't think of it and wanted to dig his own grave. But he couldn't hold it in until he was halfway through digging, so he threw it in the hole. As soon as he urinated, unexpectedly, water came out, and then he discovered that there happened to be underground water under the place where he dug the hole, and then he achieved great success."

"Haha! Boss, if this is really the case, will the water smell like urine? I don't know who drank the first water."

After hearing this, Tang Shisen's first reaction was that this statement was ridiculous. How deep can a person dig a hole? How powerful can a pee be?

They are all hopeless people. They are just self-entertaining jokes out of boredom. They are passed around and spread like wildfire. Oh, the unlucky ones are just lucky.

"Just listen to the unreliable ones. Having water supply is luck. Ordinary people will analyze the pros and cons and make a choice. However, the discovery of this water source has helped the government a lot. No matter what the reason is, it is indeed necessary to give the discoverer a heavy reward. .”

The spy stopped his smile, sighed, and said with envy:

"Yes! That man is very lucky. He couldn't survive originally. Now, he should be able to get on the government's bus and make a big turnaround."

But when he thought about their own strength, he just felt envious, and then he praised Tang Shisen:

"Fortunately, we have water powers ourselves, so we won't have to queue up to get water. Boss, you are so foresight. Those water powers we have are really precious!"

Tang Shisen was very indifferent after hearing this. He waved his hand and said: "Okay, just do whatever you have to do. Report any news as soon as possible!"

"Yes."

Thinking of something, Tang Shisen still called out to the spy: "That's right."

"Boss, do you have any more orders?"

"You are like this..."

He hesitated for a moment, then had an idea, and then lowered his voice and whispered quietly: "Send a reliable person to find out the specific location of the water source..."
