"I am also a member of this team, so I also want to do something for this team." Milan's tone was helpless and strong, "What can I do? Shameless!"
With a wry smile, Milan spoke, swung his arms, waved at Liu Chang, and disappeared into the depths of the mist.
Looking at the back of this woman, Liu Chang felt a sense of helplessness—in fact, in all fairness, this girl is really a good girl—knowledgeable, beautiful, and has a kind of knowledgeable temperament—I think before the end of the world, she was also from a wealthy family. Miss, there is no shortage of suitors in school.
Not only that, but this woman still has a unique kindness in the last days—this can be seen from the fact that she said good things for Tian Tian before, and let Liu Chang take her along—because these good things are not just words, the bird Everyone knows that the back is that big—it's impossible for her not to know. And in the team, if it is useless, she is probably the most useless, so if Tiantian really agrees, and Hou Niao really can't carry so many people, she is the one who is most likely to be kicked out.
Therefore, the kind things she said were definitely not just as simple as being obedient - this girl actually had a kind heart in her bones.
And from what she said just now, it can be heard that her kindness is also strong.
"Actually, I don't believe that there are no good people in the last days." Liu Chang patted Tiantian on the shoulder, motioning her to keep up with his own steps, "Just take me as an example, although I am stronger than most people now A lot, and I'm no longer soft on killing, but I still hate killing."
"Well, me too." Tian Tian smiled, "I hate seeing blood, if possible, I would like to go back to the old days of raising birds, eating snacks and watching TV."
"I don't want to go back to the past!" Hearing what they said, the air parrot screamed again, "You stinky bitch, it's time for me to be young, just put me in a birdcage and forget it. If you don’t find a partner for me, you say that people keep a pair of birds, so you just keep me, what’s the point?”
"Now that I'm so big, I can't even find a female bird to mate with!"
"That's not right." Hearing the words of the parrot in the sky, Liu Chang looked up at it, "How could it not match the size? On the way to the bird tide, aren't there many birds with the same length as you?"
"Those birds are not parrots!" When it came to the question of pairing, Zhiqing temporarily forgot her fear of Liu Chang, and her tone showed irritability, "I am a parrot, not an eagle, nor a vulture, nor a crow! Those things are There are big ones, but the species are different! Would you like to pair up with a monkey?"
"Oh, so that's the case!" Liu Chang walked into the city with a smile - but there was still no one in this area, so he continued to speak unscrupulously, "But then again, you are wise now, do you still like parrots? ?”
"Nonsense, if you don't like parrots, don't you like people!" Xiaoqing was very annoyed in the sky, "According to what you humans say, this is a problem with hormones. The urine and body odor of female parrots are fatally attractive to me. "
"Okay!" Liu Chang nodded, looking at Shijiazhuang's uninhabited suburban belt, "Your words suddenly reminded me of a joke."
"What joke?"
"The story of a she-rabbit and an elephant in love..."
"The female rabbit is so small, how did she fall in love with the elephant?" Tian Tian interjected, "What happens after falling in love?"
"The female rabbit exploded afterwards, so, Xiaoqing, if you want to find a female parrot in the future, you should be more considerate of the other party and avoid such a tragedy from happening!"
Liu Chang's words were sincere.
…
The joke is cold, the north is colder, and the suburbs of the north without people are colder.
In autumn, although Liu Chang was not afraid of the cold wind because of his physical fitness, he still felt chills when he looked at the suburbs where there was no one.
"How can there be no one?" Liu Chang was very puzzled, "Shouldn't big cities be the ecological circle of human beings? I remember that Zhengzhou was relatively prosperous at that time. Before the willow tree came, millions of people survived. Moreover, the commercial system And the service system is still in operation, even if it is a suburb, it shouldn't be so desolate!"
"It's kind of weird, look at that." Tiantian pointed to a dilapidated house, but it was obvious that people lived in it a few days ago and said: "The grass on the house is only as high as a fist, and it's obvious that people lived here not long ago, why now? Nobody left?"
"Just go to the city and ask." All doubts can only be answered by finding a living person, so Liu Chang accelerated the pace of entering the city.
Walking all the way from the outskirts of the city to the urban area, Liu Chang finally saw the shadow of a living person here. Without further ado, he picked up a passer-by and asked him.
"A piece of biscuit, I'll disturb you for five minutes, do you think it's okay?" Liu Chang took out a compressed biscuit from his bag, and shook it in front of the displeased woman who was held by him, shaking the other party's displeasure into nothingness. smiley.
"Okay, if you have anything to ask, hurry up." Grabbing the biscuit and stuffing it into her arms, the woman stood on the street.
"Why are there so few people on the street?" Liu Chang looked around, "Where did everyone else go?"
"Are you from another place?" The woman looked Liu Chang up and down, with doubts in her eyes.
"I asked you a question, not you asking me, don't waste time, you got paid." Liu Chang pointed to the whole biscuit, "If you don't want to answer, I'll ask someone else!"
"All right, all right, I don't care where you came from." Hearing that Liu Chang was going to take the biscuit back, the woman hurriedly tightened it tightly and stuffed it into her chest, then answered his question concisely.
"There are so few people on the street because the government informed us that if we could run away, we should pack up our things as much as possible and run to Beijing. This news was released by the government more than a month ago, saying that there was something Terrible creatures that can destroy the entire city, and then they are going to the north, so most of them have fled!" The woman replied: "The ones who are still here either don't believe the news, or they really have something urgent to do. I don’t want to stay here, but most people left anyway, and it’s not far from Beijing, and I heard it’s safer there.”
"That's right." Liu Chang heard the woman's words, and remembered what Li Qingshui once said, the news that the signal can be received in rainy days-this kind of high-tech equipment may not be available in small places, but if it is a larger city like Shijiazhuang. , and on the verge of the capital, there must be such equipment.
Moreover, the news that the woman said was sent more than a month ago may also have something to do with Li Qingshui - because although Liu Chang's journey from Zhengzhou to Shijiazhuang was bumpy, he was delayed by nearly an hour before and after the Misty Forest. months, but the first part of the journey did not take long.
Counting from the day of leaving Zhengzhou, it was less than two months—and if Li Qingshui had notified Shijiazhuang before, it might take some time for the government to process the news, so this coincided with the time the woman said.
So, after he sorted out the first question, Liu Chang asked his second question.
"How many people are left?"
"It's all gone!" the woman sighed.
"If it's less than 10% of it, that's a lot..." Liu Chang calculated in his heart that if a million people survived, 100% would be 100,000. In other words, there are still tens of thousands of people in the city.
"Are there any shops in that town?"
"There are still a few that are not closed, but the price is ten times the usual price." The woman curled her lips and said, "There has never been a shortage of people who made money from wars since ancient times, and of course there are people who made money from the end of the world!"
"That's it." Liu Chang was also a little annoyed when he heard the ten times the price, "If I want to change something at such an expensive price, I may suffer a lot!"
"That's not right!" The woman shouted: "Usually you can exchange one catty of food for ten catties of water, but now you can exchange one catty of noodles for one catty of water. That’s less than a pound of food.”
"That's the front and rear benefits, they all earn ten times more?" Liu Chang said with a headache: "This is not easy!"
"Yes, profiteer son of a bitch, five minutes is almost up, have you finished your question?" The woman knocked on the electronic watch that was still running.
"No more, let's go." Liu Chang sent the woman away and continued walking towards the city center.
"Let's grab her some water!" Seeing the woman walking away, Tian Tian's Xiao Hei showed a demonic expression on his face, "You are so powerful, what's the point of grabbing something?"
"Let's go and have a look first, if it doesn't work, we can only grab it!" Liu Chang recalled the last time he had a conflict with someone in a small shop—but anyone who dares to make "war money" in the last days usually has some background, Therefore, in order to avoid embarrassment, he also made some other plans.
After all, although the minds of the people in the last days are essentially the same as those in the previous life—but in terms of means, they are more intense.
After asking for directions all the way to the city center, Liu Chang found a purchasing point here—this purchasing point is very large, equivalent to the wholesale station in the past, but now the flow of people is much less—because after all, most of them have left .
But rare is rare, and the guards here are indispensable.
As soon as he walked to the door with his bag on his back, a guy with a gun greeted him: "Sir, what do you want to change?"
The person who came had a ferocious face, but forced out a kind smile, which made people look awkward.
"Here, you know, we only exchange bottled disinfectant water, food, weapons and ammunition, and nothing else. What do you want?" When the man spoke, he did not forget to carry his gun. It was obvious— The place where this kind of material is transferred can easily cause malicious intentions.
"I want to change some water and use guns and ammunition." Liu Chang said.
"That's fine, I'll call you a professional salesperson." The big man yelled at the inside as he spoke: "One of the inside, come out and come for business!"
