poor road [end times]

Zhang Lin was tied up like a salted fish and was still in the back seat of the car.

Feng Lin, who was sitting in the driver's seat, and Yang Yiqin, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, didn't look back at him, and only occasionally looked through the rearview mirror to see if the other party was honest.

Because Zhang Lin was blindfolded and gagged, and wore a strange robe, and his whole face was buried in it after lying down.So it wasn't until the convoy arrived at the base that Yang Yiqin was about to drag Zhang Lin out of the back seat of the car, only to find that he was crying silently and dirtying the back seat of the car.

For a moment, Yang Yiqin felt extremely disgusted.

Feng Lin came over, saw the situation, and kicked Zhang Lin off the back seat.

He is not a clean freak, his body is often covered with blood and mud, and he often rides with survivors who haven't showered for many days, but it doesn't mean he doesn't mind the traces left by people like Zhang Lin.

Under the guidance of the staff, Mrs. Chen and her team queued up for quarantine inspection.

After the superficial inspection was clear, the staff took them into the base and gave them a brief introduction to the basic situation of the base.Then, they led them all the way to Dr. Wang to draw blood and check various indicators of the body.Finally, assign them a temporary place to live—according to Qian Guowei's request, this temporary place must be separated from other ordinary survivors to prevent them from being instilled with unknown liquid by Sun Tongming and affecting other people.

As a precaution, the staff provided each of them with a mask and disinfected their bodies.

Now, these "guides" have been replaced by ordinary survivors in the base.After several months of investigation, more and more internal affairs of the base were assigned to suitable survivors.

After Qian Guowei finished the more important things, he asked Dr. Wang and Academician Chen for their opinions on how to check the genetic status of Mrs. Chen's group and find out what Sun Tongming did to them.

The two survivors who were forced to become experimental subjects needed special circumstances and special treatment.They were escorted by ambulance all the way to the temporary hospital without going through isolation inspection, and received emergency treatment.

Everything is in order.

Qian Guowei personally escorted Sun Tongming through a special channel for inspection, and then immediately sent several people to control him.After the inspection, he noticed something strange about Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin, and walked over.

"What's going on?" Qian Guowei glanced at Zhang Lin who was wriggling on the ground, and asked, "Why didn't you escort him to check."

Feng Lin said succinctly: "The back seat of the car is no longer available."

Qian Guowei's eyes turned to the back seat of their car, and he saw the mess on the seat at a glance.

"Go back and wash it, and we need alcohol disinfectant." Yang Yiqin was still calm, "Probably because the smell of blood on me and Feng Lin was a bit strong, so I didn't find out about him in time."

"Thank you for your hard work this time." Qian Guowei was also a little helpless, "Fortunately, he didn't incontinence."

Hearing this, Yang Yiqin smiled: "The incontinence will definitely be discovered, and it's useless to cover it up with bloody smell."

Feng Lin continued: "He should be in the trunk."

"That's not acceptable." Yang Yiqin shook his head, "The trunk contains the food supplies we were looking for yesterday."

Seeing that everyone else had already entered the base, Qian Guowei said to the two of them: "Pull your car aside first, go with me to see General Zheng, and explain the cause of the incident clearly so that I can provide you with a military intercom. Equipment. Then we will hand over the people to the laboratory, and communicate with Academician Chen and others what you have seen. I remember that the reagents on Sun Tongming are still on you, right?"

"exist."

With that said, Yang Yiqin took out the tightly wrapped test tube.

Qian Guowei nodded: "You take it first."

After stopping the car, several people escorted Sun Tongming and Zhang Lin to the center of the base.

After Academician Chen and others moved to the villa area, the entire office building became a temporary hospital—medical staff usually rest on the top floor, and a room is allocated on each floor as a warehouse for storing materials and instruments, and even the roof is covered Temporary iron-clad rooms were built to store unused medical equipment, and the remaining rooms were converted into outpatient rooms, ward rooms, and operating rooms.

Qian Guowei sent the two of them to have their blood drawn first, and asked Wang Yumin and other medical staff to test and analyze them to see if they were carrying other diseases in their bodies.

After that, several people went to look for General Zheng.

In fact, since the "moving" of the laboratory, Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin have never known where the base's decision-makers moved. It turned out that they both moved to the No. [-] cell where the survivors lived.Since most of the survivors have moved to the community, there is now only one dormitory in the entire dormitory area for survivors who are unwilling or unable to move.

Cell No. [-] is located in the back, and the guards are stricter than before. There are always energetic soldiers coming and going downstairs. Because there are confidential equipment, documents and weapons, every floor is strictly guarded by soldiers.

The room where General Zheng lived was a relatively large office at the end of the third floor, and several other decision makers also lived on this floor.The cell at the other end of the corridor has been remodeled. It is not only a dormitory for the army, but also various equipment rooms and arsenals.

Qian Guowei knocked on the door.

General Zheng's majestic voice came: "Come in."

Several people walked in.

Yang Yiqin raised his eyes and looked around. Although he changed to another place, the furnishings of General Zheng's residence were still very simple.There are only a small bed, a few cabinets and a row of tables and chairs in the room, among which the conference table and chairs occupy the largest area.

General Zheng has a lot more gray hair on his temples, but he seems to be in good spirits.

Qian Guowei reported: "This is Sun Tongming and Zhang Lin."

He has communicated the general situation of the whole incident to the base through the intercom equipment, so he can directly cut to the point and communicate the details.

General Zheng was busy with the official duties of the base.

At this moment, he stood up and looked at the bound person: "Is it just the two of them?"

"Yes." Qian Guowei nodded, "Sun Tongming's actions are heinous and he has no moral bottom line. Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin feared that he was hiding something harmful to others, so they tied him firmly into the current look."

General Zheng turned to look at Yang Feng and the two, and said with an approachable smile: "This time I have to thank you again, every time you can provide great help to the base."

Yang Yiqin said politely, "It's a little effort."

Afterwards, General Zheng inquired about the specifics of the personal experiment, and gave them a military intercom device as a special case, so that if they encounter this situation in the future, they must notify the base immediately, and the base will definitely use the fastest speed Start a rescue operation.

Yang Yiqin took over the intercom device and nodded solemnly.

"General Zheng, don't worry, we won't use the intercom equipment indiscriminately."

"I trust you."

After reporting the matter to General Zheng in full, the sky had already darkened.

The laboratory is full of the most important talents and equipment of the base. From the barbed wire fence of the passageway to the villa area, there is a soldier with a gun guarding the guard every few meters. They take turns to guard strictly for 24 hours to ensure absolute safety here. .

Passing through these guarded soldiers, Sun Tongming and Zhang Lin were sent to the laboratory.

Before they came, Academician Chen was still immersed in the experiment, and it seemed that he had a little inspiration for a breakthrough, so no one dared to disturb his painstaking research.Instead, Dr. Liang learned about Sun Tongming first, and greeted them at the door of the laboratory early.

Seeing Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin, Dr. Liang raised his eyes and joked, "Why are you involved in any major event?"

Yang Yiqin also hooked his lips: "It's fate. But there are major events in the base every day, and the probability of our participation is not high."

Dr. Liang sighed and turned to look at the bound person.

He pointed to one of them and said, "Is this person Sun Tongming?"

Qian Guowei nodded: "That's right, the younger man next to him is Sun Tongming's accomplice Zhang Lin."

"I've heard of this senior brother...ah, no, it's this person. In my impression, Mr. Chen has always been easy-going and charitable. He has never been in a hurry with students and colleagues. The only time he lost his temper was because of this person. It seems that it was because of him. When the other party was doing experiments, he wanted to break through the bottom line of scientists many times and do some unacceptable things. The teacher tried to persuade him many times but failed, and finally drove him out after discovering that he was secretly using a classmate's base for experiments. formed his own research group."

Yang Yiqin raised his eyebrows: "It's something he can do."

Dr. Liang stepped forward, took off Sun Tongming's blindfold, and took away the cloth ball from Sun Tongming's mouth.

Finally able to see the light, Sun Tongming couldn't help squinting his eyes, trying his best to adapt to the strong light.He waited for more than half a minute before gradually shifting his gaze to the people in front of him.In the end, he looked at Dr. Liang with jealousy in his eyes: "It really is you."

Dr. Liang nodded: "It's me, what's the problem?"

Sun Tongming didn't answer. After looking around, he asked hoarsely: "... Where is your 'respected' academician Chen?"

"Is the teacher someone you can meet whenever you want?" Dr. Liang sarcastically said, "You can just meet me, and I can teach you some basic literacy in scientific research."

"What kind of person are you? Don't think I can't see it. There is something as crazy as mine in your eyes."

"But I have my own principles." Dr. Liang spread his hands indifferently, and said frankly, "At least I won't use the other party as an experiment without the subject's consent."

After speaking, he turned his gaze to Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin, smiling knowingly.

Yang Yiqin thought to himself: Indeed, Dr. Liang doesn't play tricks, he always asks if he would like to be his experimental material.

Feng Lin directly ignored the other party's gaze.

"Dr. Liang." Qian Guowei reminded, "Let's bring the two of them into the laboratory first."

"Okay." Dr. Liang nodded, "Come with me."

Afterwards, they were taken to a temporarily idle laboratory.

Dr. Liang pointed to the experimental bed in the room and said, "Please tie the two of them to the bed."

Qian Guowei and others followed suit.

After Sun Tongming and Zhang Lin's limbs were locked and unable to move, Dr. Liang put on experimental gloves and removed all the binding tools from the two.

This time, Zhang Lin finally saw the light of day again, able to speak and see.

The moment he saw clearly that he was in the laboratory, he suddenly burst into tears, and could no longer restrain his sadness and resentment.

Seeing a big man crying out of breath and making the originally white experimental bed dirtier than the back seat of Feng Lin's car, Qian Guowei scolded: "Why are you crying? , you should have expected this day."

Sun Tongming snorted lightly and ignored him.

On the contrary, Zhang Lin couldn't help but choked up and said: "I, the reason why I am willing to help Sun Tongming is because I am afraid that he will drag me to the laboratory for experiments. You have never seen a body that died under his hands... I, I just want to be good." alive."

"Live well? I think you are living a good life." Yang Yiqin asked with a smile, "Don't you enjoy playing the role of a priest and enjoying other people's obedience and submission?"

Zhang Lin choked suddenly, and then hiccupped.

Qian Guowei said with a serious expression: "I heard that you were not even willing to reveal Sun Tongming's name at first, and you will end up doing it yourself, and you will not be able to cleanse yourself."

"No!" Zhang Lin argued, "I know I'm wrong, I really know I'm wrong!"

After admitting his mistake, he lay on his back on the experimental bed, chattering all about his experience.

After escaping from the movie theater, Zhang Lin happened to meet Sun Tongming, who was covered in zombies and human flesh and blood. The other party was terrifying and bloody. Every step he took, pieces of flesh would fall down, hitting the ground and turning into a flower that exploded. Flesh flower.According to the other party himself, it was a method he discovered by accident to disable the ability to recognize zombies. He was using this method to conduct experiments and eliminate zombies in the mall by the way.

Zhang Lin was terrified when he thought that besides the flesh and blood of zombies, there was also human flesh in that thing.

Seeing the abnormality and cruelty of the other party with his own eyes, Zhang Lin did not dare to resist, and officially became Sun Tongming's puppet.However, Sun Tongming didn't do anything to him immediately, but let him stay in the mall to wait for people who came to find supplies, and tried to make those survivors willing to come to the mall to gather every week.

The weekly gatherings, what supplies to distribute each time... are actually decided by Sun Tongming.

He's been injecting strange things into those people's food for a long time.

At the end, Zhang Lin said excitedly: "I listen to him because I am afraid of the laboratory..."

No wonder he was so emotional after entering here.

While listening, Dr. Liang brought a lot of experimental equipment.

At this time, he stood in front of Zhang Lin, drew a large tube of blood from his arm, then fixed his head with a snap ring, and stuck some strange tools into his skin.

Zhang Lin trembled in fright.

Dr. Liang smiled gently, and slowly adjusted the experimental equipment connected to him: "What are you afraid of, I won't kill you, I'm different from the person lying next to you."

Facing his smile, Zhang Lin only felt a chill.

Only his eyeballs can move now. After quickly scanning the surrounding people, he looked at Qian Guowei, who was less scary than others, and continued to argue anxiously: "I am an evolutionary species! I am an evolutionary species! I have the ability to heal wounds quickly, you will need our cooperation, you can't kill me!"

"Nobody wants to kill you."

After speaking, Dr. Liang went to draw Sun Tongming's blood and install equipment on him.

Zhang Lin first experienced the painful past of being punctured by the survivors, and now he is frightened by the laboratory, so he can only repeat his own value: "I will cooperate with you, I will really cooperate with you, I am different ..."

"Different?" Feng Lin was annoyed, "Who told you that?"

Zhang Lin immediately replied: "Sun Tongming, there is still reality."

Dr. Liang was also aroused curiosity.

"What is it, let's hear it."

Before Academician Chen arrived, Sun Tongming was not going to answer any of these people's questions.He didn't care about being tampered with, nor did he care about Zhang Lin's betrayal of his old background, he just kept sneering.

"Ah."

Dr. Liang didn't care about his attitude either.

It has long been heard that the only "senior brother" who angered Academician Chen is a person with fair grades but not the best, but a lot of crooked thoughts.Dr. Liang thinks that he is a person who always wants to find another way and do some strange experiments.

But in terms of morality, he is already far ahead of the opponent.

"It's the increase in strength and the healing of the wound that I just mentioned!" Zhang Lin explained, "I'm not lying, the original 'believers' all know about it!"

Hearing this, Yang Yiqin was taken aback and asked, "Ah, didn't I tell you?"

Zhang Lin didn't know, so: "What?"

"Increased strength, sharpened five senses, quick movements, healed wounds... These things can be done by other people."

Zhang Lin was at a loss: "...huh?"

"It's so stupid." Dr. Liang smiled and shook his head, "It's really too stupid."

Such a man can be a priest.

In the last days, people's hearts are too fragile, and they can surrender to anything they see, and they can be used as straws.

Qian Guowei was thinking about other things.

Yang Yiqin saw what he was thinking, and said: "What happened to Sun Tongming and Zhang Lin, the base should just make an announcement—"People who are immune to zombie virus infection have special active cells"."

Qian Guowei agreed: "That's fine, General Zheng also had the same idea just now, and the decision-makers should hold a meeting tomorrow."

Now the laboratory has gradually made progress, and can detect the special cell activity of mutants.Just in time for this kind of thing, those original "believers" have seen the wound heal a long time ago...

If he hesitated any longer, he was afraid that there would be a few more people like Zhang Lin, which would cause panic.

After making a decision, Qian Guowei asked Dr. Liang: "What time will Academician Chen come?"

They need to communicate with Academician Chen before they can leave here.

"Once a teacher is obsessed with research, he will forget to eat and sleep. What's more, it is hard to say when there is a breakthrough in research." Dr. Liang continued, "If you have any information in your hand, you can give it to the team. analyze."

Qian Guowei nodded: "Yes."

Yang Yiqin handed all the reagents in his hand to Dr. Liang.

Dr. Liang took it and asked other researchers to open it one by one and take samples for analysis.Afterwards, he asked, "By the way, I heard that two more test subjects were also brought back. Where are they?"

"Doctor Wang's." Qian Guowei explained, "He's receiving treatment."

"I've heard about their situation. If the medical staff dare not take out the foreign objects that have been sutured into their bodies at will, we can conduct an experimental analysis of their situation first."

Qian Guowei shook his head: "Don't worry about it, they are in a very bad condition right now, and they have serious mental problems. We decided not to send them to the laboratory for the time being."

"In this case, we can send researchers there." Dr. Liang insisted, "Teacher Chen must also agree with this approach."

Qian Guowei pondered for a moment: "Let's wait until their situation stabilizes." After finishing speaking, he continued to ask, "I will come here again tomorrow to follow up the progress of the experiment. At the same time, I will trouble Liang The doctor told Academician Chen that Sun Tongming's personal laboratory is currently intact, and if the scientists are willing, we can immediately escort you to his laboratory to check the situation."

"Okay, I'll remember." At this point, Dr. Liang looked at Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin, raised his glasses and said with a smile, "It's already here, let me draw another tube of blood."

Qian Guowei: "..."

Feng Lin: "I refuse."

Yang Yiqin: "Next time."

Dr. Liang sighed regretfully.

The people and reagents were successfully transferred, and several people left the villa area.

When walking towards the prison, Qian Guowei took the initiative to invite: "Do you want to go to the cafeteria to eat with me?"

They had been busy all day and hadn't had time to eat dinner yet.

"can."

The two readily agreed.

Yang Yiqin bent his eyes: "I haven't eaten in the cafeteria for a long time."

Qian Guowei shook his head with a smile: "Is it because after you moved to the community, you have been firing your own fire?"

"Sometimes I'm too lazy to line up." Yang Yiqin explained, "And it's very pleasant for two people to cook together."

"By the way." Qian Guowei suddenly remembered something important, "Your points this time..."

Yang Yiqin smiled: "I forgot."

Feng Lin said in a casual tone: "Just look at it."

The two of them don't care much about points anymore.

One is because compared to the speed of earning points, the speed at which they spend points is as slow as time freezes; the other is because whether it is going out or saving lives, they are all voluntary and voluntary actions.

In the process, you can collect some materials you need by the way, and it will be a worthwhile trip.

"Giving must be given. No matter how good you are, you are still ordinary citizens. Even if you are a 'volunteer', the base can't let you work hard for nothing." Qian Guowei said, "Well, after we finish dinner, I will go with you Go find the old man, and make your matter this time a high-level task."

Hearing this, the two did not refuse any more.

After they finished their meal, they walked towards the broadcasting room as they said.

The three of them were separated by a long distance, and they saw a cat whose body was so black that it blended into the night, lying on the window frame of the broadcasting room with its back facing to it.If it wasn't for an emergency light in the broadcasting room, flickering a faint light, and its fur was shiny and soft, people probably wouldn't have noticed its existence.

When he got closer, he found that Mao Xiaoliu was holding an ordinary mouse in his mouth, and he was receiving praises from the old man.

There should be mice in the broadcasting room, so Lao Yuan asked Kitten to help.

Maoxiaoliu has a keen sense of hearing, and immediately noticed that someone was coming. It didn't want to have long-term contact with strangers, and was about to leave here with a mouse in its mouth, when the tip of its nose moved, and found that the smell of the person was very familiar.

It turned around and looked straight at Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin.

Yang Yiqin thought that the little black cat would immediately run over happily to greet and act like a baby when he saw the two of them, but when he met the little black cat's Huang Chengcheng's eyes, he read full of doubts from it.

——I came back so soon, is it me, meow?

At this time, Yang Yiqin remembered that he and Feng Lin had said that they would go out to the base for a few days, so he told Huahua's family many things back and forth.But in the end, they went out yesterday morning and came back this evening.

No wonder Mao Xiaoliu looks silly.
