Li Lian is not a reckless person. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to live to the present. Although it had something to do with him running away a few times, his natural caution allowed him to escape danger countless times.
First of all, to get to the ruins of Beijing, they have to walk at least hundreds of kilometers along the way. This is almost a cross-provincial operation, and it is impossible to move in a straight line. The goal is too obvious. In addition to the barbarian people who like to live in the plains most, there are many races such as centaurs, demons, and crypts on the plains. Their running speed is definitely much faster than that of humans. If they were discovered on the plain, then they are definitely dead!
So to go to the ruins of Beijing, the route is the most important thing.
And even in the mountains and forests, it is definitely not a good place. Most of the foreign races still prefer to stay in the mountains and forests, such as reptiles, elves, and dwarves. Tree people... and other alien races like to form tribes in swamps, mountains, and jungles, so there are actually more alien races in mountain forests than in plains. Human beings will not be killed or captured just because they are discovered, at least they have some hope in it, so human refugees will flee into the mountain forest.
"We are all citizens of Beijing, but I am not familiar with the terrain in the northeast of Beijing, what about you?"
Li Lian squatted on the ground, scratched the soil with a branch, and drew several big circles on it. On one of the big circles, he wrote the words "Beijing Ruins", and on the other big circle, he wrote his own name.
"That's it. Our current position is about here, so we are going to the ruins of Beijing hundreds of kilometers away. It will take more than ten days to walk in a straight line in the middle. Let's not talk about anything else. Who are you?" Do you know the road map in the middle?" Li Lian raised his head and looked at the crowd.
Everyone looked at each other. After a long time, the girl gritted her teeth and said, "My memory is not bad, but I can't guarantee 100% certainty. Let me try." While speaking, she was already squatting on the He came to Li Lian's side, picked up the branch in his hand, and began to draw on the ground. Not long after, more than a dozen small circles appeared between these two large circles, with some terrain written in them, and there may be icons of alien races there.
"It's amazing!" Everyone sighed. This girl must not know the specific terrain, but after all, she escaped from a large settlement outside Beijing at the beginning. They can actually record the terrain and the distribution of different races at any time. This kind of memory and observer is definitely not something ordinary people can have.
Li Lian was also pleasantly surprised. He looked at the girl, and then said to the others: "Well, let's find a gap on this topographic map and pass through. If we keep walking along this jungle until we reach here, We can enter this barren mountainous area. Although the exposure may be much larger than in the jungle, it is still much better than on the plains. But the most dangerous thing in the end is when it is about 100 kilometers away from Beijing. We have to go into the plains, and then we can only rely on luck."
The rest of the people are also staring at the depiction on the ground. They all nodded their heads repeatedly, and the girl's face was slightly red, she stood up and turned her head and said: "Hmph, this is just my own memory, if it's wrong, don't blame me if you die!"
The rest of the people all laughed, and they all smiled at the girl, while Li Lian stood up and patted her on the shoulder lightly, saying: "It's okay, we have already forgotten what the terrain of this area is. Well, it all depends on your memory, if it really failed and died in the hands of a foreign race, then it is our fate, but no one can blame you, thank you very much."
The girl's face turned away again, she snorted but didn't say anything, but Li Lian didn't care at all, he looked at the rest of the people and said, "Okay, since everyone has no other opinions, we will set off immediately, It will take more than ten days to go, so everyone should not relax, this is the time to change our destiny, and even change the destiny of all clansmen."
"Go! Let's go!"
As Li Lian and the others headed towards the ruins of Beijing, the rest of the people followed him closely. Most of the people in this group were young and middle-aged men and women, and the proportion of men was a bit larger. There were only four or five women. There are those few children, so all the way along the way, everyone protected these women in the middle. Together with the fact that they were taking care of the children, and Li Lian was sneaking in the front for reconnaissance, no one encountered too much danger along the way.
All of this is thanks to Li Lian's current quality. In addition to his physical fitness being stronger than ordinary people, he can also enter that peculiar fighting state, and his intuition for danger has also begun to grow day by day. Many times, everyone It was all because of his early warning that he escaped several encounters with alien hunting teams.
However, as everyone continued to move towards the west, they also discovered something incredible... that is, the number of forest areas has increased!
Yes, when the ghosts appeared at that time, it was already in 2011. How many wild forests were there in the world at that time? Although there are some jungle areas near Beijing, there is absolutely no area that can be called a forest. However, as everyone kept moving forward, they found that some places that were originally plains, and even obvious rural areas and roads between towns, were now closed. It has been covered by jungle, and the covered trees and grass seem to be at least the size of trees and grass for several years or even nearly ten years.
With the discovery of such a situation, everyone felt in a trance that since the appearance of those alien races, there have been more green areas with trees. And it is still going on at an incredible speed, and some animals that are already rare have begun to appear, but human beings have ignored these phenomena because of the appearance of alien races and some tyrannical animals that have never been seen before. That being said, the naturalization of the environment is indeed accelerating.
However, such a situation is also a good thing, maybe everyone doesn’t need to walk the more than one hundred plains and may be exposed, so everyone’s mood gradually becomes more relaxed with this discovery, but as everyone keeps moving forward, After walking for about seven or eight days. They discovered a phenomenon. .
That is, it seems that many alien tribes are migrating from the west to the northeast and other directions, but it is impossible for everyone to catch an alien to inquire about the situation, but this scene makes everyone feel as if their hearts are jumping out...
Why do aliens migrate? Why do they avoid the west and migrate in other directions? The only answer is that there has appeared a powerful force that they cannot match, and it is unlikely that it is the alien race itself, because although those alien races will have disputes when they meet on weekdays, there seems to be some connections between the alien races. Like dealing with human beings, they work together to capture and slaughter, and they maintain restraint with each other, so it is unlikely that there will be a powerful alien tribe in the west, at least it will not make these alien races look so panicked and even migrate to distant places.
Then there is only one answer left... In that direction, there is a powerful human army! Possess a large number of thermal weapons, and may even have mechanized troops, and such an army is something that alien races cannot resist anyway, and with the blood feud between humans and alien races, there is absolutely no room for reconciliation, so, The biggest possibility of these alien races is to avoid the human army!
Seeing this, she was the most pessimistic girl on this trip. She showed a look of shock, puzzlement, and then ecstasy. This scene made everyone have a hope, that is, for the hope Land, the land of dreams may be true hope!
But hope is hope. With the increase of alien tribes in this area, the difficulty of hiding is also rising. This is not counted. Apart from hiding, food is also extremely difficult to find. Not to mention the beasts, even the rats. The aliens in this area have been completely harmed, and the remaining new alien beasts cannot be easily solved by Li Lian with an AK47. As for the wild vegetables, they have almost been snatched by those aliens. So next, everyone hid and stopped. It’s been five or six days since I’ve eaten anything decent. The best meal was just finding some fresh wild vegetables and feeding half of them to a few children, and the remaining twenty or so adults would fill in casually. Stomach.
Li Lian is the one who eats the least among the crowd. Although everyone wants to give him more food, Li Lian knows that if he is chased by a foreign race, he can escape no matter what, as long as it is not in the plains. That's fine, but the possibility that these people can escape is too low, so instead of letting him eat these foods, it is better to let these people eat more food, so that they can have the strength to continue this journey. Whether human strength is sufficient, as long as it is discovered by a foreign race, it is absolutely impossible to be alive, so instead of letting him eat it, it is better to let the weak eat it, and have more strength to complete this journey.
So Li Lian was really tired and hungry, and his whole body was very cold. Although it was approaching spring, the north was no better than the south. The temperature here was still around zero degrees. Although there was no snow, the temperature was biting , For people who have no shoes, no clothes, and no food, it is definitely enough to be a fatal threat.
In this way, everyone struggled forward for another two days, and finally came to the edge of the jungle and mountains. After leaving here, there will be a boundless plain, and there are still a few roads where the glorious civilization of human beings can be vaguely seen. But hidden in this boundless horizon may be unimaginable dangers.
"Walk."
Li Lian took a breath, suppressed the burning feeling in his stomach that seemed to be corroded by sulfuric acid, and walked out of the jungle first, while the others followed him after a little hesitation. Together, they walked from the forest to the plain, heading towards the far west, the direction of the ruins of Beijing, the land of dreams.
Just like that, they walked for another day and night, but they couldn't find even a little bit of food on this plain, and they couldn't even find a drop of water. Except that they could absorb some dew from the grass in the morning, everyone was still alive. Hungry, tired, and thirsty, it is really almost the limit, and there is still a day and a night away from the ruins of Beijing, but if they don't find something to eat, then the adults can barely survive But the children will definitely not be able to endure it...
"... I'll go find some food!" Li Lian sighed, and he said to the rest.
Everyone was sitting behind a pile of rocks, avoiding the biting cold wind, and stopped here to rest, but after such a rest, the two children passed out directly in front of everyone, their expressions They were pale and blue, and their breathing had become very weak, as if they might die at any time. Several children surrounded them, crying and pulling their little hands, but the faces of these two children just became paler and paler. It seems that it is about to die.
Seeing such a situation, Li Lian gritted his teeth and said to the others: "You must have seen those piles of excrement just now? It is the excrement pulled by the pig beast, the wild beast that the centaurs like to raise, so it is It's pure green, I touched it, and it's still moist and warm. One can imagine that those piggies must not have gone too far. If I chase it alone, when I can meet the tail of the piggies, I just need to take advantage of them. Pay attention, you can take the opportunity to catch one, then not only the child will be saved, but even us will be able to eat a ton, how about it, everyone."
Everyone was silent for a while, the pig beast, that is the creature that the centaur tribe is best at raising, its image is somewhat like a combination of wild boar and sheep, and it is also a grass-eating animal. They have seen this creature more or less They exist, but centaurs are also nomads, they are very concerned about their livestock, even if there is a large group of pigs, there must be more than ten centaurs nearby to protect and monitor, if you want to steal one from the pigs Come on, this difficulty is undoubtedly looking for death...
But these children really can't make it any longer. Although the rest of the journey only needs to be walked for another day and one night, it needs to be kept going for 24 hours. Let alone children, adults like them don't know When collapsed and comatose, but... In this way, Li Lian may be...
The girl next to her suddenly gritted her teeth and said, "Give me your knife! I'll give them some blood to drink. Everyone, please persevere. The ruins of Beijing are coming soon. Even if there is nothing there, we can still be in some ruins." This is an unnecessary battle, Li Lian, although you are much stronger than us, and you can enter the superhuman state, but you died because of this unnecessary battle, do you want us? Do you regret it for the rest of your life?" After she finished speaking, she wanted to grab the bayonet that Li Lian saw at his waist. .
But Li Lian grabbed her hand violently and said, "Are you crazy? You haven't eaten anything for two days in such a cold day? You still want to have bloodletting? It's almost as good as letting your life go! Damn, don't talk to me." I'm arguing, I don't like beating women! You take good care of them here, I must go get some food and come back!" After speaking, he lightly patted the girl's shoulder again, turned around and walked towards the place where he was before. I ran to see the feces.
Tears welled up in the girl's eyes. Only those of them who have survived for a long time after the alien race came, they really know what kind of danger it would be to steal the creatures raised by the alien race. Once the alien race finds out Now, it must be an endless pursuit, no matter how strong Li Lian is, he is really doomed...
"Hey! Li Lian, my name is Wang Juanjuan! Come back alive! I'm a flight attendant. Didn't you say that your parents want grandchildren? I'll marry you, I'll marry you in Beijing, and I'll give birth to a lot of fat boys !" The girl wiped away her tears fiercely, she was not shy, and shouted loudly towards Li Lian's back, and the voice was heard far and wide.
Li Lian's heart felt sore, he didn't look back, he just waved his hands back, and then quickly ran towards the place where the excrement was.
After running for a long time, Li Lian saw the place where several piles of excrement were piled up, and then he carefully observed the grass around the excrement, then lowered his body and ran towards the distance of the grass. At this moment, his physical strength was almost He reached the limit, but he held his breath in his heart, forcefully holding the last strength in his body, so that he could continue to run like this.
In this way, he ran for more than 20 minutes. At this slightly steep slope of the small plain, he bent his body and climbed to the top of the steep slope. Looking forward, he saw thousands of pigs and beasts. Under the yelling of more than a dozen centaurs, they are slowly following a large centaur troop in the distance and migrating towards the northeast.
Centaurs are almost the same as the half-humans in Western legends. They also have four horseshoes below. The back half of the body looks like a pure horse, while the front half of the body has two human hands and the upper body of a human. They wear leather armor. There are still some spears in their hands, and a very small number of centaurs hold long bows and arrows in their hands. These centaurs are also extremely powerful and strong fighting races.
(Fortunately, the terrain here is in my favor, and the surrounding grass is so high, if I crawl forward, then they may not be able to see me, after all, there are thousands of pigs.)
Li Lian made up his mind, and he didn't hesitate. It was really a race against time, and a few minutes might lose their lives. He bent his body and slowly climbed down the steep slope, and then got into the control and continued to climb forward, but Once he got up like this, he felt that his body had really reached its limit, it was almost difficult to even move, and the speed was also very slow, maybe slower than those pigs eating and walking.
(Enter the state of Superman! This is the moment to fight for the people!)
Li Lianmeng gritted his teeth, his eyes suddenly became dazed, and the muscles of his lower body suddenly swelled up, getting bigger and bigger, making his crawling speed more than ten times faster at this moment, even enough to match his running speed. Rivalry, just like that, he quickly approached the pig beast.
(Closer! Coming soon!)
Li Gang was almost holding his breath. He had already seen the wild boar-sized body of the pig beast through the grass. He just silently listened to the situation around him, felt the distance of those centaurs, and then rushed out fiercely. On the body of a little piggy beast, the moment it was overwhelmed, a bayonet was stabbed through its head. At this moment, his arm was so thick that it seemed to be inhuman, and the huge force drove the bayonet, piercing the skull of the piggy beast instantly. , and the pig beast really didn't even make a sound.
(Okay! Go, go quickly! Centaurs also have a great sense of smell.)
Li Gang leaned over his head and took a deep breath on the skull of the pig-beast, feeling his stomach instantly became comfortable. Without hesitation, he dragged the pig-beast and started crawling in the grass, and the speed was getting faster and faster. , he didn't dare to look up at all, he didn't know if those centaurs found out, his only thought at the moment was to hurry up and hurry up, his life, everyone's life, children's life... God! God! If there is all this, please save us!
But there is no god in this world, and there is no so-called heaven, there is only cruel reality...
When Li Gang ran nearly a thousand meters away, he suddenly heard a sharp whistle coming from behind him. He didn't dare to hesitate anymore, jumped up and ran forward with the pig beast on his shoulders. It's right in front of him, and he can block the sight of those centaurs by running over the small steep slope, and there he may have a chance, first use ak47 to deal with these dozens of centaurs, and then escape or Concealment, this is his only chance!
But Li Gang had just run more than a hundred meters, suddenly there was a sharp noise from behind, and he suddenly felt a pain in the left side of his body. He didn't know where he was hit by the arrow, but he knew that he must have been hurt , In just such a pause, his body and back suffered another sharp pain. This time the force was much greater, and it actually pierced him to the ground. He suddenly lost his balance and just rolled over like this He fell forward seven or eight meters away, and then he couldn't move anymore.
(Are you going to die? Are you really going to die?)
Li Gang turned his head vigorously, he finally changed from lying on his side to lying on his back, finally he could see the sky, the blue sky and white clouds floating, so beautiful, so pure, but under this sky, we humans no longer have the right to live...
(I’m not reconciled! I’ve finally come here, I’ve finally been able to see the land of my dreams, and I just died like this... I’m really not reconciled! Dad, Mom, and my comrades-in-arms, I’m so reconciled! )
Li Lian desperately wanted to struggle, his tears had already blurred his vision, but his body had already reached the limit, he couldn't even move at this moment, but there was still strength to stand up, he Nothing can be done, he is already dying...
Just when Li Lian was desperately trying to struggle, desperately wanting to look at the land where he was born and raised, suddenly at this moment, there was a violent crackling sound from the steep slope, not only this sound , and there was a huge explosion. Li Lian felt as if he had returned to the field army. He actually heard the sound of tank tracks.
"Li Lian! Li Lian! Woo, are you still alive? We've waited, the dream land is real, there really is a human army, I don't want you to die!!"
Vaguely, Li Lian seemed to hear the voice of the flight attendant named Wang Juanjuan, with a crying voice, as if he heard the affirmation he wanted to hear the most. He didn't know if all this was true, maybe it was his dying The hallucinations are just fantasies to make your dreams come true? He doesn't even know.
The moment a sharp pain spread in his body, he had already fallen into a coma...
