Outside the stone wall is the main road leading to the city. Shopping malls where supplies can be obtained, buildings with a high degree of solidity, and even vehicles for transportation... are all lacking here.
But at the same time, the number of people will be many times that of the suburbs here, so there is no need to say more about the difficulties they face.
What's more, people in the suburbs don't even know what the outside is like now. Maybe the shopping mall has been robbed and there is only an empty shell left; maybe the building is occupied by zombies, and they can't squeeze in; Countless zombies are swaying, and they gather as soon as the car starts...
Tang Tang sighed.
The reason why she wanted to leave here was because she still had a little attachment to someone in her heart.
But why do these people have to take risks
She glanced at the people sitting together now, but it was obvious that they were divided into two factions.
Tang Tang sat with his teammates, opposite to the four people who just came over to say hello.
"How about it, do you want to cooperate?" One of the men with his hands on the ground looked at the 16 people opposite him, and finally fixed his gaze on Tang Tang, who seemed to be talking to her.
Tang Tang:
She looked left and right, and found that not only the four people on the opposite side, but also her teammates were looking at her.
Tang Tang shrank back, "... What are you looking at me for? I don't know?"
The man with his hands on the ground raised his eyebrows, and was about to say something when Chang Sheng spoke first.
He looked at the four people on the opposite side and said, "I'm sorry, there are some matters in our team that need to be discussed urgently. Do you think you should go back first, or continue to wait here?"
The four looked at each other, and the person who spoke before said indifferently: "It's okay, we have a lot of time, so let's wait here."
Chang Sheng shrugged. Anyway, there are many people "following" the 16 of them now, and there are dozens of people covered in the black ball, and there is no shortage of space for these four people to sit.
Chang Sheng and Chang Ding looked at each other, and then nodded together. Tang Tang didn't know what consensus the twins had reached, and saw the two people who were sitting stand up.
"How about we find an empty venue for a meeting?" Chang Ding asked.
Was the sudden meeting for the cooperation mentioned by these four people
Tang Tang glanced at the two brothers surnamed Chang, and then at the four people across the way. The four looked quite calm, with their hands on the ground, half-lying and half-lying, and one of them was still holding a A weed, probably pulled from the ground...
She intuited that these four people were very strong because they were too calm.
You know, there was a whole circle of black balls standing around the 16 of them just now, and the posture of these 4 people when they came in was as if those black balls belonged to their family...
Tang Tang is a little depressed. This suburb is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. I have to come to meet her no matter what. Is it because I want to scare her!
The people in the team looked at each other, nodded, and agreed to the proposal of the two brothers surnamed Chang to hold a meeting. Tang Tang also nodded and stood up with everyone.
They walked to a slightly empty area on the side, which was different from before. This time Chang Ding first built a water house outside them, and then Chang Sheng made a move, and built a smaller one inside the water house. The earth shell covered all 16 people in it.
Tang Tang guessed that this may be done to prevent outsiders from hearing, so there is a double guarantee
At this time, the people in the team had already sat down.
Tang Tang didn't want to look abrupt, so she quickly sat down on the ground.
"Our 16-member team has been established for many days, but there has never been a formal meeting like today." Chang Ding spoke first, "I mean, since it is a team, the captain is definitely needed. Just then Four people are here to talk about cooperation, do I want to take this opportunity to choose the captain of our 16-person team today?"
He looked around the crowd and suggested.
In a team of 16 people, the number is not too many, but it is not too many. Usually, if there is a decision to be made, and everyone holds their own point of view, but there is no conclusion in the end, the person who makes the final decision may live a very miserable life in this difficult last days.
Moreover, if a team does not have a captain and no one who is recognized by everyone stands at the forefront, then the team will be like a plate of loose sand, and it will be difficult to gather spirit. Although it can survive in a short period of time, in the long run, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be any major conflicts, which will lead to the final dissolution of the team.
But in this last days, if they disband, where should they go
It's better to choose the captain now, and unite the team as soon as possible before going outside the stone wall, deepen the relationship between the teammates in the team, and plan for future survival.
Everyone understood this truth, so there was no objection at all, and they nodded, "Yes."
Of course Tang Tang understood, and also had no objection, and nodded.
The two brothers surnamed Chang saw everyone nodding, looked at each other, and said solemnly: "Then let's start choosing? Anyone recommend themselves?"
Everyone looks at me and I look at you, all comparing their own strengths, whether they can afford the status of captain.
But no, no one feels that they have met this requirement, even if it is not clearly stipulated what requirements the captain needs to meet in order to be a captain.
But in their hearts, they have their own quantification.
Because in terms of the strength of abilities, Brother Chang and Tang Tang are undoubtedly the most powerful among them, and when it comes to the provision of food, among the 16 of them, there are six earth and water-type abilities, while the others , Either the strength is not strong enough, or I feel that I haven't put in much effort, and my brain feels that I can't make any big turns, I'm afraid I can't do it well.
They sat upright, and no one spoke for a while.
Chang Ding looked at everyone, "Is there no one who recommends himself?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"Then I want to recommend someone," Chang Ding looked at everyone, and finally fixed his eyes on Tang Tang who was shrunk and hugged his knees.
Tang Tang noticed his gaze, and his eyebrows jumped.
... to see what she does.
it's not going to be...
"Tang Tang, I recommend Tang Tang, what do you think?" Chang Ding asked after finishing speaking.
Tang Tang was shocked, she didn't expect Chang Ding to really plan to recommend her, she was a little nervous, and quickly waved her hand.
"Recommend me? I can't, I've never been a captain, I don't know anything!"
God! Is this going to put her on the path of pitting her teammates
No, absolutely not!
No matter how Tang Tang refused, but once Chang Ding finished speaking, he got a lot of response.
Chang Sheng and the girl raised their hands first, "I also recommend Tang Tang."
Following Zou Yu, Chen Lang and the others also raised their hands in agreement.
Tang Tang's ability is really nothing to say, the effect of the black ball is really powerful, and it also has its own defensive function. Not only that, in the previous few escapes, she was quite calm, and finally turned the tide. This time, she was the one who ran behind the enemy and wiped out those forty people in one go, and finally let them suffer the least damage.
They originally selected Tang Tang as the captain candidate in their hearts, and now that Chang Ding proposed it, of course they would not object.
All of a sudden, everyone raised their hands in agreement.
Tang Tang was anxious, turned her head to look at them suddenly, and was about to speak, but Chang Sheng opened her mouth first, and he stopped what she was about to say.
"No one will do it at the beginning, Tang Tang, you have to believe in yourself."
"But I..."
How could she have the ability to lead a team? !
Tang Tang still feels that he can't do it.
"You can do it, you want to cover us, have you forgotten? There are three earth-type supernatural beings in our team, such an enviable existence, if we are targeted after leaving the stone wall, we all need you Protected by the black ball!"
Chang Sheng brought out the rhetoric of the earth-type supernatural being, earnestly speaking.
He and his brother had thought about this decision for a long time. They didn't fancy Tang Tang's ability, of course, ability is also one of the reasons. The most important thing is that Tang Tang protects them unconsciously every time.
Just like when facing those 40 people attacking before, she obviously only has two legs, but because the white ball can only cover her body, so in order to minimize injuries to her teammates, she ran around alone in the outer circle of 15 of them .
When he saw this scene, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
And the time when she was running for her life in the woods, when the speed-type supernatural being attacked Xiuxiu, she subconsciously ran over and used her white ball to block it.
And before that, when dealing with those six liars...
He thought, it should be their honor for such a person to be the captain, right
Everyone persuaded Tang Tang together, and finally Tang Tang was even more embarrassed.
She agreed.
But she hastened to declare: "Let's talk about it first, let me take the place for a while, if I don't do well, quickly remove me!"
Once everyone heard that she agreed, it was easy to talk about everything else, and they followed her at this time, nodding along, "All right, all right, we'll talk about it when the time comes."
... It always feels like these people are playing me off.
After the captain is selected, it is necessary to consider the matter of this cooperation.
"Who are those four people? Does anyone know them?" Tang Tang became the captain. There was no way. Although he was not proficient, he still had to try to do what the captain should do. At this moment, he took over the important task of the meeting.
Unexpectedly, everyone present shook their heads together, "I don't know."
"Don't know? Chang Sheng, don't you know each other?"
"I don't know, I haven't even met." The two brothers surnamed Chang shook their heads.
Tang Tang didn't expect that none of the 16 of them knew each other. At this time, he was a little embarrassed and frowned.
"Should we put aside the matter of cooperation for a while? I think those people wrapped in the black ball seem to know these four people. Let's persuade them to go back first, and then maybe we can ask the people in the black ball to find out Get some news."
Everyone nodded, agreeing with her thoughts.
Tang Tang was a little embarrassed, she always felt like she was talking alone...
"Then... are there any other questions?" Tang Tang looked at them, as if no one spoke, and it was even more embarrassing...
"Tang Tang, don't be nervous. You need to make a decision at this time, and your idea is just right. It's normal that we have no other opinions." Everyone was a little bit dumbfounded, Tang Tang's nervousness was too obvious.
Tang Tang smiled awkwardly, "Then I'll get used to it."
The soil shell and water room were removed, and soon 16 of them walked out again.
Those four people were still there. At this moment, 16 of them came out, and the man with his backhand on the ground raised his hand and waved at them, "Hey, how is the discussion going, do you want to cooperate?"
Encouraged by his teammates, Tang Tang raised his head and chest, walked over with enough momentum, and coughed twice to boost morale.
"We want to think about it again, can we come back in a few days?"
The four people looked at each other, "Sure, we're not in a hurry."
This promise was very straightforward, but it made 16 of them stunned. Why did they seem to be more anxious than 4 of them? Obviously the four of them came to find them first.
The four of them didn't have much interest in what the 16 people were thinking. They stood up, and when they were about to lift their feet to leave, they suddenly stopped.
They looked back at the girl wrapped in the white ball, then looked at the other people, and suddenly asked, "By the way, I don't know who your captain is?"
Is it time to go out on your own
Tang Tang thought for a while, and stood up, "Me."
The four people on the opposite side looked at her, and then the boy who kept talking came out, "Hi, I'm our captain. My name is Sun Tzu. What's your name?"
"Hello, my name is Tang Tang." Tang Tang seemed concise.
Sun Tzu raised his eyebrows, "I thought that such a sweet-looking girl would have a sweet personality, but I didn't expect her to take a cruel way?"
Tang Tang heard the words and frowned. Is she very cold now
Well, maybe it is a bit cruel. After all, he is the captain now, and he has to learn to be more mature, so he can't be noisy all day long.
Tang Tang said to himself.
The four left quickly, and the place returned to its original state.
Tang Tang glanced at the people in the black balls who were obediently surrounding the outer circle at the moment, and just at this moment a person looked at her, and she beckoned to let him come over.
The man was sure that Tang Tang was looking for him, and he felt a little uneasy. After dawdling for a long time, he finally had no choice but to come over.
"Let me ask you a question, do you know those four people just now?" Tang Tang asked.
When the man heard that it was related to those four people, his trembling legs suddenly trembled even more. He even put his fingers on his mouth and made a "shh" gesture to Tang Tang.
Tang Tang is puzzled, can't say
Why, are those four people very scary...
The man noticed that Tang Tang had been staring at him, afraid that Tang Tang would be dissatisfied with him, thought for a while, took his fingers away from his mouth, and then said: "The four of them are terrible, we dare not provoke them."
"How powerful is it?" Tang Tang asked.
Hearing the words, the man came over and said in a low voice, "They all came from outside the stone wall. They have experienced fighting, and I heard that they got tired of staying outside, so they ran into the stone wall."
That's true, but what does it mean to be bored? Could it be that the strength of the four of them was more than enough to stay outside, but they were tired, so they went to a quieter place to find peace?
Isn't that amazing
If they are so powerful, then why do they still need to cooperate with their team...
Tang Tang frowned and thought.
"Go on, do you know anything else?" She couldn't figure it out, and asked again.
The man continued: "Brother Shui, Brother Shui, do you know?"
Of course Tang Tang knows, and he is still covered in a black ball.
"Brother Shui's abilities are actually very powerful, but his brain is not very good and he is conceited. We usually don't dare to provoke Brother Shui. But if you compare Brother Shui with the four of them, Brother Shui is completely inferior." The man As he spoke, he trembled, "Any one of the four of them who stands up can crush and beat everyone in our suburb."
"So powerful?" Tang Tang was surprised.
Can everyone beat it
That is to say, the biggest hidden gangsters in the suburbs are the four of them
When the man heard Tang Tang's rhetorical question, he paused for a moment, and then said: "Not everyone, it should be everyone except you."
Tang Tang was a little helpless after listening to his supplement.
She really only managed to succeed in the sneak attack by taking advantage of the chaos. Why does everyone regard her as a very powerful person now? Obviously she was just a coincidence!
After learning about the four people from this person, Tang Tang went to ask a few other people, and finally summarized the results of the questions from other people in the team, and found that the statements were similar.
Tang Tang rubbed his chin, "It seems that these four people are really powerful."
Everyone nodded.
"But they are so powerful, why do they have to cooperate with us?" Tang Tang couldn't help but wonder.
Everyone shook their heads again.
There was a silence after that...
Tang Tang was very embarrassed. He always felt that he, the captain, did not do well and did not stir up the atmosphere.
A new topic was opened immediately, and she asked: "By the way, I don't know yet, why did you decide to go outside the stone wall? You all know how dangerous it is outside, and you can survive in the suburbs anyway. Why do you have to go out?"
This question has been circling in everyone's mind recently.
They actually thought about it for a long time, and they vaguely had an answer in their hearts, but they didn't seem to be very clear. Now that Tang Tang asked, it made them ask themselves again.
Why do you have to leave here
"Maybe I think it's not too bad outside." Zou Yu was the first to speak, and he sighed, "The suburbs here are too remote, like being abandoned. I used to want to Otherwise, I will stay here for the rest of my life, anyway, I am an earth-type supernatural being, so I can get some food to eat when I get some water."
Everyone looked at him, waiting for his next words.
"But I also feel that I don't want to live like this. I want to go outside to look for opportunities, I want to find a chance to end the doomsday, I want the previous world to come back, I hope I am not the one who was abandoned, I have said too much, In fact, it’s just a dream. I don’t know if it can be realized…” Zou Yu looked lonely.
"Yes! Definitely!" Tang Tang slapped the ground after listening, affirming.
Originally, everyone was still deeply trapped in Zou Yu's words and couldn't extricate themselves, but Tang Tang's retake brought them back from their sad emotions.
Looking at her firm expression, I couldn't help but smile, "The captain said yes, so it must be possible."
When Tang Tang was said so, he was embarrassed again.
She silently withdrew her little hand, rubbed it in the palm of her hand, pursed her lips, and began to whisper, but said firmly: "Yes, the end of the world will end one day, and we will usher in a bright future."
The answer was always in her heart.
Because after all, she is the one who knows part of the plot in advance, and in the end this apocalypse will definitely end, the darkness will pass, and there will be light.
So at the moment she can be very firm, but she doesn't know how to say it, which way to say it, so that other people in the team can also believe in it and not give up hope...
Although everyone in the team smiled at her and supported what she said, she could feel the deep uncertainty in their hearts.
In fact, it is understandable. After all, the end of the world came too suddenly, without any warning. They have been in such a remote suburb, even many times more remote than her school, they should be very disturbed, right
Just like when she first came into this world.
Just like when she learned that she couldn't return to the original world.
Where the future is, it seems that there is no hope at all.
But so what, if you can't expect it, then create it yourself! Even in the last days, people's future is absolutely in their own hands.
Tang Tang has always believed so firmly, so she cherishes her life more than anyone else, and wants to live on.
But they seem to be more uncertain about the future than she is.
She didn't know what to do, so she could only recite bit by bit, hoping to engrave this belief in their minds in this way.
"Yes, of course."
Tang Tang's voice is very soft, obviously very soft, but in the darkening night at this moment, it has endless power. They were suddenly a little ashamed, so many people, except for Xiuxiu, everyone was older than Tang Tang, but their mentality and trust in the future were far inferior to hers.
"Yes, I also believe it can!" Chang Ding slapped the ground with a firm tone.
"That's right, add me, I believe it too!" Chang Sheng followed closely to pat the ground.
"I believe it too! Add me one more!"
…
The sound of palms slapping the ground spread in the slightly empty night. Those people in the black ball heard the sound and turned around unconsciously.
Is it the end of the world
Will there be such a day...
They don't know, but tonight's wind is a bit strong, and at the same time it's cold, it actually makes their eyes a little dry, and they urgently need to secrete some liquid to moisten them.
On the balcony of the building not far away, the man with long-sightedness was looking at this side.
He suddenly grinned, "They chatted so happily, they actually slapped the ground together, as if they were singing to the beat!"
"Do you still sing in the last days? I'm so excited."
The far-sighted man said irresponsibly: "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't say they were singing, I just said like. 'Like' understand? It means 'not sure if it's true'."
Sun Tzu stepped forward, leaned his back on the balcony, and propped his back on the balcony table.
"Yes! Definitely! We believe that the end times will definitely end! Ah—yes! Definitely! Yes!"
At this moment, there was a burst of orderly shouts from the direction of the 16-person team, and the sound came over immediately, lingering for a long time, floating in the night sky in the suburbs.
The four people here glanced at each other, and suddenly looked up at the sky together.
The night in the apocalypse was so foggy. When I looked up, except for the farsighted person, no one else could see anything more than one meter away.
So, will the last days end...
·
Jiang Zhu seemed to sense something tonight, and suddenly came to the open ground and sat down.
He released his supernatural ability, and brought the starry sky into the mist that was more than one meter above.
Small dots of light follow closely behind, sparkling in the starry sky.
Tang Tang, look, this is the night sky, isn't it beautiful
