When Liu Chang left this time, except for some daily necessities and drinking water, he didn’t bring any weapons except a pistol—after all, for him now, the military weapons produced by conventional machinery are no longer effective. Against ordinary enemies, it doesn't matter whether he uses weapons or not—and when dealing with enemies he can't deal with, the conventional militarized weapons are almost useless.
Therefore, the first goal of his departure this time is also the initial goal of his incorporation into the Seabed Army, which is Qingdao—the Seabed people landed there. The best location—and not to mention this, his meat gun is also in Qingdao, and he wants to get it back.
"Little Liu on the road, be careful on the road." Old Qi Hengqiu bid farewell to Liu Chang, not Lao Zhang, but Tian Tian, she looked at Liu Chang, curled her lips and smiled bitterly: "Although I will never forgive you for the death of my dearest love, And that Li Qingshui. However, I still hope that you can come back alive."
"I'm here, relaxing and waiting for you."
"I'm sorry about the matter of love." Liu Chang's relatives are Li Qingshui and Xiao Jing, and for Tian Tian, the only family member alive before may be love—the noisy bird.
"Let's go, kid." Tiantian smiled and stood on tiptoe and patted Liu Chang's shoulder, giving him a farewell farewell.
Then, the two separated.
After Liu Chang left Jinan, he headed east all the way, ran through the forest he had walked through several times, passed the dreadful iron nematode lake, and headed all the way to Qingdao.
It's just that the journey and scenery of this journey are completely different from the last time.
Among the dense frozen jungle, Liu Chang could see a lot of dense footprints, those footprints that have not faded, uniform footprints - some big, some small, strangely shaped mixed with various residual smells. From so many footprints, Liu Chang can judge how many submarine people and giant beasts passed by here and marched into Henan these days.
Silently calculating the source and number of the smell all the way, he traveled hundreds of kilometers all the way to the familiar Qingdao.
The smell of the salty sea breeze mixed with the cold wind came to the nostrils. After entering Qingdao, Liu Chang found that it was quite different from the last time he came here!
To be exact, it is much more prosperous!
Much.
If you look around, what you see is no longer the bleak atmosphere after the ruins of human cities, but a bustling and thriving scene—there are construction scenes everywhere, dilapidated houses being remodeled and demolished, and huge buildings. The beast was busy on the road, and the streets were full of people—sea people, Qingdao people, and Americans.
"It seems that they got along well during this period of time!" Walking to the street, Liu Chang's appearance did not attract anyone's attention. He saw many people from Qingdao who were wearing thick clothes on the street, and they were actually cooperating with people from the sea. Work, even the giant beasts passing by on the street, did not scare these ordinary humans - obviously, after the temptation and propaganda of the people in the sea during this period, they have reached some agreements with the people in Qingdao here.
What Liu Chang could see was that the people on the seabed would give them some food as a reward when they were not working, and there was no coercion in their work—obviously, this kind of win-win method was very effective. For a city dweller who is on the verge of ruin by the sea, and for a city dweller who has formed a tribal system, there is nothing more tempting than being able to get food as long as you work without having to work hard.
"Hehe, economic invasion has been changed to cultural invasion. It's because the sea people who have to eat cooked food still carry those human food with them." Looking at everything around him, Liu Chang can imagine that, in fact, in the lower society of the United States, these The sea people who have invaded their country are actually not that ugly.
After all, the people of the sea are smart, capable, and friendly—and they have food!
So, no one would hate to be friends with such a creature.
However, this level of intrusion was not something that Liu Chang could prevent or interfere at all, so he walked on the street without squinting—then he kept sniffing the air in the cold wind, following the direction he remembered, in the At the entrance of a tavern by the sea, a bearded figure was found.
"The construction is really fast. How many days has it been? There is even a place like this?" Standing at the entrance of the tavern, what Liu Chang saw was a broken-down house that had been remodeled and hung with a Chinese-style plaque. The plaque has a strong Chinese taste, with four large characters written on it—"Ocean Tavern"—and besides the end of the plaque, Liu Chang also found the breath of Japanese culture—the image of a cartoon underwater person hidden in the plaque In the lower right corner, it adds a bit of lively atmosphere to this too serious plaque.
The cartoon underwater man is obviously drawn in the style of Japanese manga, with a pink body and big eyes twinkling, adding a lot of cuteness to the ugly cartoon image.
"The invasion is really thorough." Liu Chang sighed, seeing this familiar style of painting, he couldn't help but think of the country on the other side of the sea, how is it now-as an island country, that country is surrounded by the sea, and after the end of the day, it should be It is even more sad than a landlocked country, but since four or five years ago, China has lost most of its international connections, but now seeing this cartoon image, Liu Chang understands it.
The people of the sea must have been there.
Opening the fur-wrapped wooden door of the tavern with first-class cold-proof facilities, Liu Chang entered the warm tavern, and then saw a bearded figure at a wooden table in the tavern.
"Welcome, Ocean Tavern." Opening the door, a lovely human girl came up to her. She was smiling, looked well-trained, and had a sweet voice—seeing this girl who was one of a kind in a hundred, Liu Chang couldn't help but feel Sigh again, people in the sea can care so much about these business details. Since he entered this city, he can feel the strong and pervasive atmosphere of cultural invasion. Anything that can make human beings feel good, they seem to be able to think of it , and all of them are done very well, it is almost comprehensive.
"Excuse me, sir, what kind of service do you need? The drinks here are very complete, and human beings are half priced, and Wednesdays are free." The girl smiled and pointed to the bar, "There is also a master bartender performance by the sea people, thirty tentacles bartending together You must have never seen the situation."
The girl obviously worked here since the beginning of the tavern's opening, and she recognized Liu Chang as a new face at a glance, and said firmly.
And Liu Chang frowned listening to her blunt Mandarin, "Are you Japanese?"
