poor road [end times]

A total of nine people got off the four cars.

Among them, there were two children and a pregnant woman, and the remaining six were four men and two women, ranging in age from teens to 50 to [-] years old.

The pregnant woman had a big belly and looked about seven or eight months old.Her cheeks were thin, and her arms and legs were so thin that the skeleton could be seen clearly, making her pregnant belly more prominent and crumbling.

The others also looked emaciated, each suffering from malnutrition to varying degrees.

But Yang Yiqin could clearly see that there were still a lot of supplies in their vehicle, including some food.

Looking at it this way, the reason why this group of people are so emaciated and weak should be due to the exhaustion of the journey, the frugality of food and expenses along the way, and they did not dare to eat too much.

After a brief moment of excitement, the nine people finally saw clearly the physiques of Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin.

They didn't know what they thought of, and they suddenly felt a little on guard, a little hesitant and timid.When the two people gradually approached, the survivors saw pistols in their hands, long knives and axes at their waists, and the strongest middle-aged man among the nine hurriedly blocked the people behind him.

The leading man was not tall, his lips were also a little pale, and he held a shovel with an extended handle in his hand.But his body is extraordinarily strong, and under the short sleeves, you can vaguely see the bulging muscles - not the exaggeration after frequenting the gym and eating more eggs, but a more robust physique.

Yang Yiqin immediately saw the difference in the other party.

In a relatively safe and peaceful modern society, martial arts has gradually lost the meaning of "fighting" that it should contain. Most people learn Kung Fu to strengthen their bodies.Including the establishment of martial arts clubs in schools by students, just out of interest in martial arts. After learning well, they will participate in various performances, martial arts competitions and college exchanges.

People are less and less pursuing the lethality of martial arts, and paying more attention to its appreciation, and gradually forget what a "master" who is really good at actual combat should look like.

Yang Yiqin remembered that Father Yang once told him that people who knew martial arts before, especially those who don't look too majestic but have thin and powerful limbs, should not be underestimated.The middle-aged man in front of him gave Yang Yiqin a sense of vigor and strength that could not be ignored.

——He must be a trainer.

No wonder one can escape here with children and pregnant women.

Both parties were just on guard, examining each other without malice.

Therefore, the stalemate only lasted for a while, and the middle-aged man asked loudly: "Excuse me, are you from the Beishi Survivor Base?"

"Yes, we are from the Beishi Survivor Base. My name is Yang Yiqin, and the base is not far from here." After finishing speaking, Yang Yiqin asked, "I don't think your license plate is from Beishi. Where are you from? ?”

"We are from Chongshi. We heard that a safe zone for survivors has been established here, so we escaped from there."

Chongshi is a little further north than Beishi, and it is freezing cold in winter, but the distance between the two cities is not too far. Before the end of the world, it can be reached by car in two or three hours, and it is faster to take the high-speed rail.But after the end of the world, these nine people must have gone through all sorts of hardships to make the two- to three-hour journey.

"Are you all from Chongshi?"

"Yes, we are all from Chongshi." The middle-aged man said, "My name is Tang Yongke. These are my family, friends, and people I met along the way."

Temporarily confirming each other's positions, Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin put away their pistols in front of them.

Seeing this, Tang Yongke also put his shovel back on the roof to show his attitude.He glanced at the monkey king beside Yang Yiqin, and asked, "Can you live in peace with them?"

Yang Yiqin nodded: "If the animals don't go berserk, it's still possible."

"It's amazing." Tang Yongke praised, "As expected of a person in the base."

Hearing this, Yang Yiqin smiled: "No, it has nothing to do with whether they are people in the base or not. They are all ordinary people who have defected to look for a chance of life. The main reason is that the animals themselves are not threatening. Look at your faces. Have you gone through a lot of difficulties? How about going back to the base with me first, Feng Lin and I are patrolling around here, and we also have the idea of ​​welcoming other survivors."

Tang Yongke looked happy and nodded excitedly: "Of course, we are going to the base!"

The people behind him also supported each other and wiped away the tears from their eyes.

After a brief exchange, Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin learned that the younger of the two children was the child of Tang Yongke, and the other was the child of Brother Tang Yongke, who had unfortunately turned into a zombie in the early days of the end of the world.As for the pregnant woman, it was the wife of a member of their former team. After the gymnasium was breached, in order to protect his wife, he was unfortunately thrown down by zombies that rushed up.

Among the remaining people, one is a relative of Tang Yongke, and the rest are people they knew in the gymnasium.

Everyone has experienced tragic life and death, and they are exhausted both mentally and physically.

After getting a general understanding of each other's situation, Yang Yiqin bowed his head and said a few words to the Monkey King.He praised the monkey king for doing a good job this time, told it that he would report this incident to the base, and told him to remember to report to the humans in the base in time when he sees survivors next time.

After hearing this, the Monkey King danced for joy.

We are going to take Tang Yongke and his party to leave here and go to the base.

On the way back to the base, Yang Yiqin saw a group of kittens running wildly, and remembered that he told them last night that they could go to the scenic spot together if they wanted to.Huahua and the big black cat were the first to notice their car and stopped. A bunch of kittens collided into a ball one after another.

Yang Yiqin waved at them, telling them to train their children by themselves first, and we will be together another day.Huahua also raised her paw and waved it to show that she knew, and with her eyes, she signaled the whole family to follow her.

In order to prevent Tang Yongke and others from encountering any unexpected situations following the off-road vehicle, Yang Yiqin temporarily lent them a walkie-talkie.

Tang Yongke's eyes were also good. When he saw the cats, he couldn't help wondering: "You were saying hello to the cat just now...is it your cat?"

"Well, it can be regarded as the cat of the base." Yang Yiqin explained, "I usually catch the mice nearby."

Tang Yongke asked again: "Are there many such animals in the base?"

"No more." Yang Yiqin said, "Only the ones you just saw."

Tang Yongke breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

Yang Yiqin was puzzled: "What's the matter, is there any problem?"

"The place we were stationed at the beginning was destroyed by mutated animals and zombie animals." Tang Yongke briefly described the past experience, "At first, we guarded in a small gymnasium in the county seat, and piled up debris at the door to resist A group of zombies, but some zombie animals jumped on the debris and rushed in. The people who were bitten by the zombie animals did not mutate, but some people seemed to be paralyzed, and most of their bodies could not move."

"At that time, we still had nearly [-] survivors. We collected supplies by turning over from the top of the gymnasium, trying not to walk on the ground. After being attacked by zombie animals, everyone discussed whether to leave, but many people dared not move. So we never made a decision... But later, the giant mutated pigs smashed through our barriers and gates, allowing zombies to rush in, and we spent a lot of effort to escape and ascend to heaven."

"And then?" Yang Yiqin asked, "And then did you come to the Survivors Base in Beishi?"

"No, we were just looking for the nearest human safety zone at the beginning. After all, we have not been to Beishi a few times before the end of the world, and the possibility of escaping here alive after the end of the world is even less." Tang Yongke continued, "Later we went A small base on the edge of Qing City, that base was set up by a man with an elementary school as a camp."

"The base was also attacked later?"

"……No."

When Tang Yongke answered this question, he obviously hesitated for a few seconds, which made Yang Yiqin very concerned.

He can understand the idea that this group of people chose to find the nearest base at the beginning. If they don't have enough personal strength, finding a group of people is the best way to survive in the last days. Now all kinds of national and civil safety zones are definitely being established across the country.But for most people, instead of running to a large survivor base thousands of miles away, a small gathering area that can be seen in front of them is more reliable.

If the base hadn't been attacked, they shouldn't have to spend so much effort, following the advice of the radio, and fled all the way from Qing City to the survivor base in Bei City.

Yang Yiqin asked in a deep voice, "So...what happened?"

"The leader of that small gathering place is not a man. He regards the end of the world as a game, and treats all the survivors who have turned to him as his own property, a labor force that can breathe." From Tang Yongke's tone, one can hear the obvious and irrepressible "He summoned everyone there, in fact, to satisfy his own selfish desires and establish his own 'kingdom'."

Hearing this, Yang Yiqin understood the unfinished words in his words.

It seems that the safety zone must be in a chaotic state up and down. Ordinary survivors go in without knowing it, let alone looking for a shelter. Whether they can live like a person is a problem.

But judging from the state of Tang Yongke and the others, they should have escaped without much effort.

"How many people are there in that safe zone?"

"There are more than 100 people. It is an unoccupied school. Everyone has the right to hide in it." Tang Yongke's breathing gradually became heavy, and he suppressed his anger. All the supplies were transported to the school, so that the nearby residents could not obtain the survival supplies, so they had to go to their hands, otherwise they had to go further afield to find a way to survive..."

Hearing this, Yang Yiqin frowned.

More than 100 survivors are not too small for a small city.But how many of them entered the safe zone voluntarily, and how many of them succumbed to the other party's despotic power out of helplessness?

There are always selfish and vicious people who take the opportunity to satisfy their own desires when mankind is facing a common disaster.

Tang Yongke continued: "When we get to the base, I will inform the leader of these things in detail. We were able to escape because I managed to hold the leader's younger brother hostage. As soon as we left the gathering place, we drove away from the celebration. city, but there are still many people trapped in that small school, who can only be used as a bargaining chip for that person’s survival.”

Yang Yiqin comforted him: "Don't worry, the base will find a solution."

Feng Lin speeded up the car.

It was only nine o'clock in the morning when the two of them brought Tang Yongke and his party back to the base.There are relatively few people coming and going to and from the base at this time, and most of them have had breakfast and are performing their respective tasks.

Jia Shu saw that they had returned not long after they left, and there were so many people following them behind, so she hurriedly greeted them.

"Are they new survivors from the base?" Jia Shu also saw their license plates, "Come from somewhere else?"

"Yes, there are children and pregnant women in the team." Yang Yiqin explained succinctly, "The team leader also has something important to tell the base. Have Captain Qian left?"

"Captain Qian has already gone out. If you have something to do, you can tell Uncle Yuan first, and let him decide which leader to introduce the survivors to according to the priority of the matter."

After speaking, Jia Shu called Tang Yongke and others to go to the isolation room for a physical examination to determine the condition of the bite.

Noticing that the condition of the pregnant woman was very bad, she hurriedly found a stool for her to sit down, and then told the people around her to ask the medical staff to come over.After a group of people checked their bodies to make sure that no one had been bitten, and registered their personal information, a doctor rushed over.

Children and pregnant women were specially allowed to enter the base by car, and accompanied by doctors, they were sent directly to the temporary hospital for treatment.Others received a meal of food first, and then were led by the internal staff to understand the situation of the base.

Only Tang Yongke stayed behind.

Tang Yongke saw that the rules and order in the base were perfect, and there was boundless hope in his eyes.He finally felt relieved, followed in the footsteps of Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin, and went to the broadcasting room to look for the person named "Old Yuan".

Entrusted by Jia Shu, Yang Yiqin told Tang Yongke the basic situation of the base while walking.

Hearing that the base will continue to expand in order to accommodate more survivors, even considering farming and breeding, his eyes showed yearning: "I knew... I should have persuaded everyone to come here earlier."

When they were huddled in the gymnasium, they risked their lives every time they went out to find supplies, and they might not come back at any time.Therefore, in the days when there is no need to collect supplies, twenty or thirty survivors who have nothing to do often gather together to discuss the way out in the future.

They also heard the broadcast, but everyone had doubts about the base far away in Beishi.

Everyone guessed again and again—if there was a delay in the broadcast, by the time they arrived at the survivor base, the safe zone mentioned in the broadcast would have fallen long ago?What if the safe zone is not occupied, but it is not as safe as they imagined?

After thinking about it, many people feel that this risk is not worth taking.

Blind guesswork solved nothing, however, and soon the stadium fell.

In front of the ferocious mutated animals, their simple obstacles were like flimsy pieces of paper. Although those animals just broke through the obstacles and had no intention of attacking humans, the tide of zombies that rushed up immediately almost wiped them all out.

They escaped after a near-death experience, and they immediately went to the civilian safety zone with a smaller number of people and a stronger-looking one.However, everyone was out of luck. They had just left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth. Finally, they saw a place where survivors gathered, but it was such a disgusting place.

fortunately……

Fortunately, they did not give up hope of survival. After a bumpy journey, they finally came to the survivor base established by the country.

"If you have any doubts in your heart, just speak up." Yang Yiqin said to Tang Yongke, "The base will listen to the reasonable opinions of every survivor."

With that said, they had already arrived at Lao Yuan's place.

Lao Yuan looked at Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin who had come back so early, knowing that something unexpected must have happened to them, so he turned his gaze to Tang Yongke, a new face, with some clarity in his heart.

"... Who is this survivor?"

"Tang Yongke, the survivor from Qingshi, was the first one discovered by the monkeys." Yang Yiqin introduced the two of them, "This is the old man, the general manager of the base's internal affairs and missions."

Tang Yongke hurriedly stretched out his hand: "Hi, I'm Tang Yongke."

"The monkeys are fine. I made 'military achievements' when we first came here, and I will help them remember." Lao Yuan said with a smile, and then went to shake hands with Tang Yongke, "You don't have to be so polite, what's important? Want to tell me something?"

Generally speaking, when new survivors come here, the people at the base will introduce the cafeteria, temporary hospital, mission office, etc. to the other party, but they will not bring one of them here for a detailed chat.

In the current situation, the other party obviously has something urgent to talk about, so they can only find him.

Tang Yongke nodded: "Yes, Comrade Jia Shu asked me to communicate with you."

After finishing speaking, Tang Yongke described to the old man what happened to their group in the post-apocalypse, focusing on how the folk safety zone in Qing City deceived and oppressed other survivors.

The old man frowned.

"Well, I probably understand that this is not a trivial matter." The old Yuan said in a deep voice, "Well, come with me, and I will take you directly to see the general and the secretary."

Tang Yongke was stunned for a moment: "...This, can, is it possible?"

"Of course, I'm afraid that such harmful civil safety zones will appear all over the country." The old man looked serious, "It's not that we didn't expect this kind of thing, but communication and transportation are inconvenient in the last days, so it's a bit difficult to know these things. Now that I know it, I definitely can’t let it go.”

After finishing speaking, Lao Yuan looked at Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin again: "You two have worked hard, you can continue to do today's task, and I will leave Tang Yongke's affairs to me."

Yang Yiqin nodded: "Okay, then I will trouble Uncle Yuan."

After Lao Yuan led Tang Yongke away, Feng Lin finally said: "Tang Yongke is a bit level."

"I think so too. It must be that Lian Jiazi, who has lived for decades, hasn't run away." Yang Yiqin said, "If he wasn't so powerful, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to protect those people and leave safely."

Tang Yongke said that he is already 40 years old, and he still has such a physique at his age, and his strength can be said to be quite terrifying.

But think about it, as long as you have good basic physical conditions and can persist in exercising hard every day, you can always maintain a good state.Just like Father Yang, when he was 50 years old, he still had a strong tendon, and he easily beat five young people.

After deliberating and comparing in his mind, Feng Lin added: "But we are better."

Tang Yongke must have seen this too, and that's why he showed such a cautious look when they first met each other.

"A mountain is higher than a mountain. He might be stronger than us when he was young." Yang Yiqin smiled, "Keep humble and don't always think that you are invincible, otherwise it is easy to ignore the danger."

Feng Lin nodded: "I know."

After that, there was nothing to do with the two of them for the time being.

They drove away from the base again and continued to inspect the situation around the base.During the inspection, the two never saw Huahua's family again, they always come and go without a trace.

In the evening, the two returned to the base.

The old Yuan was dealing with affairs in the broadcasting room, and it seemed that Tang Yongke's affairs had been communicated clearly.

Seeing the two of them, Lao Yuan immediately put down his work: "Are you back?"

"Well, I'm back." Yang Yiqin asked, "How's Tang Yongke going?"

"The base is discussing the solution, and Xiaoqian was called away just after returning from his mission." After the old man explained, he changed the subject, "Let's talk about the two of you first. Today, a large group of survivors came to ask For my daily training, I can see that the crowd will be full tomorrow, are you ready?"

"It's not a big problem." Yang Yiqin joked, "If you're too busy, just pull Wang Che out of the bed."

Feng Lin said: "I will not show mercy."

The old man shook his head and smiled: "Then take it easy for me, this is exercise, not punishment. Don't let everyone not even finish the day's tasks after a class is over."

"Shouldn't find that kind of thing." Yang Yiqin said, "People who have stayed in the base for a long time are obviously getting healthier."

In just over two months, many survivors have undergone great changes, some have become leaner and some have become stronger.

What impressed Yang Yiqin the most was that there was an old man who was a nearby villager and the first survivor who was rescued into the base.The uncle used to have a big heart and a fat beer belly. It is said that he used to drink and play chess every day. After the baptism of the construction base, he is now so strong that he can see the muscles on his arms.

Of course, this is also related to the other party's hard work in carrying out the task and getting enough food for himself.

"Then I'll leave it to you guys. See you at six o'clock tomorrow morning." Lao Yuan instructed, "It's best to teach you a few more actual combat moves."

"no problem."

The next day.

Six o'clock in the morning.

When Yang Feng and the others arrived at the playground on time, there were groups of survivors there early on. At a glance, there were at least two to 300 people, which was more than they had imagined.Yang Yiqin even saw Wang Che, Li Qiao and others, as well as the underage siblings who were rescued by him and Feng Lin before.

Everyone's enthusiasm was high, and they all gathered together to do warm-up exercises and wait for the arrival of the "coach".

Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin stood in front of the playground.

Seeing them, the sharp-eyed Wang Che immediately paused and stood at attention, shouting loudly: "Good morning Brother Yang! Good morning Brother Feng!"

Li Qiao and Huang Ying hurriedly echoed, "Good morning senior!"

Others didn't know what to call them, so they called them "teacher".

"You don't need to call me teacher, just call me Brother Yang or Xiao Yang. The one next to me is Brother Feng or Xiao Feng." Yang Yiqin moved his hands and ankles and looked at everyone with a smile, "Since everyone has warmed up, then ——Let’s start today’s teaching directly.”

After finishing speaking, he raised his eyebrows sideways at Feng Lin, then quickly stretched out his arms towards him, pressed Feng Lin's shoulders and imprisoned his arms from behind, and captured him alive from behind.

Everyone present didn't see his movements clearly, they were only amazed.

Feng Lin could see clearly, but he didn't have the slightest desire to resist.

The author has something to say:
