Tang Sihuang nodded, staring at him inscrutablely, without speaking.
Shi Naixian looked at Tang Miao and said, "This is the young master, right?"
Tang Miao deliberately put on a surprised expression: "Are you the captain of the Xiaoqiang team? I heard that there is a master in the Xiaoqiang team named Mu Hai. Did I make a mistake?" When he said this, a half-true and fake apology appeared on his face.
"Really?" Shi Naixian's eyes flashed a trace of ruthlessness, which was fleeting, and he raised a smile, "Haha, it seems that I didn't work hard enough, so I misunderstood the young master. I have heard the name of the young master too much. Once, everyone said that the young master is extraordinary. Nice to meet you."
Shi Naixian stretched out his hand again.
Tang Miao ignored it and said with a smile: "No wonder Mr. Shi was staring at me just now. Mr. Shi looks like a well-bred scholar wearing glasses, at least at the professor level?"
Shi Naixian was indeed calm enough. After being ignored twice, his expression remained unchanged. He withdrew his hand and said modestly, "I dare not take it. The young master is really good at judging people. Before the end of the world, I was an associate professor."
"Oh," Tang Miao smiled deeper, but also colder, "Mr. Shi should know that it is very impolite to keep staring at others. Please don't disturb people too much, Mr. Shi."
Shi Naixian's face was slightly stiff, he laughed dryly, pushed his glasses, and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, because I heard that although the young master is only sixteen years old, he has great skills, and he has always been curious, so I was rude."
Tang Miao smiled and said, "It's okay, just don't do this again in the future."
Shi Naixian nodded, turned and left.
Tang Miao couldn't help rubbing her arms again.
Tang Sihuang walked behind him: "Go to the car?"
"It's okay, I'll just treat myself like brimstone." Tang Miao said calmly.
"What do you mean?" Tang Wen asked puzzled.
"Uncle Wen, don't you think that man's gaze is disgusting? Like a snake." Tang Miao whispered.
Tang Wen couldn't help laughing.
Tang Sihuang walked up to Tang Wu and said in a low voice, "Shi Naixian's information."
Tang Wu lowered his voice and curled his lips in disdain: "That guy is a ruthless character, and he doesn't look like a cultural person at all in his actions. This is also the reason why the small strong team has today's status. I heard that there was once a small strong team. When a team member disobeyed his orders and saved a survivor, Shi Naixian pushed them both into the pile of zombies. Since then, no team member has dared to disobey his orders. But because he does have some skills, so There are quite a few people following him. But recently there are rumors that he has a mental illness... "
Suddenly, a voice of enlightenment came from behind the two of them.
"No wonder I always thought he was sick. It turned out that he was really sick."
Tang Sihuang and Tang Wu turned around at the same time and stared at Tang Miao. Tang Wu was also taken aback.
"Young master, when did you come here?"
Tang Miao innocently said, "You two are too low in vigilance", and then quickly slipped away, but was dragged back by Tang Sihuang's back belt with one hand, and slapped him on the head.
Xuan Kai has been paying attention to Tang Miao, seeing him being beaten by his father, he couldn't help laughing.
Lunch was ready soon, each of the Fruit Corps scooped up a large bowl, accompanied by two chopsticks of beef pickles, a marinated egg and a piece of ham sausage, it was very delicious. Tang Sihuang gave Tang Miao the marinated egg in the bowl, and Tang Miao handed him his ham sausage.
Tang Xin took out the dog food bowls of Charles and Heiwei, and added a marinated egg and a piece of ham sausage to their noodles.
When the people in the other teams saw that Charles and Heiwei ate exactly the same food as the members of the Fruit Corps, their expressions suddenly changed, and the eyes that drifted towards the Fruit Corps from time to time became particularly unfriendly.
"Hmph, human lives are cheaper than dogs in this world now, and we can't eat as much as two dogs." A man looked at the noodles in his bowl that didn't even have oil and water, and said sarcastically.
Tang Xin smiled at him leisurely, and said slowly: "Even if I feed the dog with meat, it has nothing to do with you, right?"
Tang Miao smiled and looked at the man, with a sympathetic tone: "Charles and Heiwei killed as many zombies as us, so they are treated the same. Are you blaming your captain for being incompetent? Then I really sympathize He, he eats the same food as you." Although he didn't know who was the captain of that person, those who sat together all had the same food.
"You!" The man blushed, stood up abruptly, and growled, "Stop stirring up discord, that's not what I meant at all!"
"Crack", the other man who was sitting with him suddenly threw the lid of the lunch box on the ground, and said coldly: "Enough, Liao Wu! Sit down! Isn't it embarrassing enough? If you want to leave the team, no one will stop you!" you!"
Charles suddenly raised his head and bared his teeth silently at the man named Liao Wu. Liao Wu was so frightened that he sat limp on the ground.
Tang Wu was very happy, cut off half of his ham sausage and threw it into its bowl. Charles' eyes lit up, and he continued to eat happily.
Tang Xin said to himself: "Why did I suddenly find that Charles has a dark belly?"
This is just a small episode. Whether it is a peaceful time or an apocalyptic era, people always have various dissatisfaction in their hearts. But now, the existential crisis has tortured people to the point of exhaustion, and those with a slightly poorer psychological quality have already become vulnerable. If they do not find the correct way to resolve it, they will collapse one day.
"Mr. Tang, hello. Everyone, long time no see, do you still remember us?" Two men in military uniforms came over, first greeted Tang Sihuang, and then looked at the fruit army with a smile.
Tang Sihuang nodded slightly.
"Fang Gu, Fang Dai?" Tang Miao asked in surprise.
"It's us. How is it? Didn't you expect to meet us here?" Fang Gu asked with a smile, perhaps because of his training in the army, his temperament has changed a bit, and he looks much more resolute than before. Seeing that Tang Sihuang didn't intend to talk to them, he felt a little more relaxed.
Fang Dai cut his hair short and looked very pretty.
"Both of you are not fragile people. I believe you will be able to reach the base, but," Tang Miao said pointedly, "We really didn't expect you to join the army."
Fang Gu understood his hint, and said softly: "I didn't think of it either. But, it was my sister who said that the most dangerous place is the safest place."
Tang Miao looked at Fang Dai in surprise, nodded and said, "It makes sense."
"The two of us came here to formally thank you. Thank you for saving us and giving us enough food. Otherwise, we would never have been able to make it to the base." Fang Dai said solemnly.
Tang Xin said with a smile: "You don't need to thank us, just thank you for your own luck. We will help if we can, and we can't do anything if we can't. Right?"
Fang Dai smiled and nodded.
The brother and sister did not stay long, and left after saying a few words. Neither side asked the other how it got to the base. One is because there are so many people nearby that it is not a place to talk, and the other is because the two parties are not very close people.
After lunch, the group continued on their way. I encountered some zombies on the road and were wiped out by everyone. I also met three survivors, one female and two male. Feng Jinzhou showed them the way to the base, but they refused to take the risk by themselves and insisted on following Feng Jinzhou. Feng Jinzhou was helplessly entangled by them, he couldn't shoot them, so he had to take them with him.
After three o'clock in the afternoon, the team finally arrived at the coal base. From a distance, it was black and full of coal. It should have rained before. The coal was washed everywhere by the rain, and the hills formed by the coal accumulation were also covered by rain. Scoured pits. Several unattended excavators parked quietly aside, stained with black marks.
The troops quickly cleaned up a dozen or so zombies wandering nearby, and then quickly went over to check several excavators, one of which was broken, and the other four could be used. The survival team that followed did not have an excavator, so they could only use the shovels they brought to put the coal into snakeskin bags one by one, and then lifted the bags to load them on the truck. Wait until the troops are loaded, and then dig with an excavator.
Tang Miao and Tang Xin were not workers at all, they kept repeating the same movements, and within half an hour, their arms became sore. The two looked at each other, feeling a little embarrassed. Tang Sihuang didn't like it, so he drove the two of them aside to watch.
The Flying Tigers team was dispatched this time. Xuan Kai was the youngest. The Flying Tigers took good care of him and didn't let him do anything. He stood on the sidelines with a knife and watched Tang Miao and Tang Xin with a smile on his face. run over.
"Tang Miao, are you here too?"
Tang Miao smiled faintly, nodded, and looked at Xuan Kai once, wondering how good he was, and asked Tang Xin to remind him like that before.
Tang Xin walked over a few steps, inserted between Tang Miao and Xuan Kai, and said with a smirk: "Hi, I'm Tang Xin, Tang Miao's brother. You look very thin, can you really kill zombies? "
"Of course! Otherwise, will the Flying Tigers let me join?" Xuan Kai said secretly, his tone was not very good, "You don't look very good, but you are just a little taller than me."
"Taller is taller," Tang Xin smiled gracefully, "But you're not an adult yet, right?"
"I'll be an adult soon." Xuan Kai said unwillingly to be outdone.
"That's not necessarily true." Tang Xin shrugged and patted him on the shoulder friendly. "In this kind of world, no one knows what tomorrow will be like. So, you must cherish life and think twice before doing anything."
Tang Miao felt that Tang Xin was weird, so she spread her hands and strolled towards Tang Sihuang.
Tang Sihuang raised his head and shouted, "Tang Miao, come here, I want a drink of water."
"Here we come." Tang Miao quickly ran to the car, took out the water bottle in the backpack, and quickly ran to Tang Sihuang, unscrewed the lid and fed him water. Because Tang Sihuang's hands are full of black charcoal.
Water slid down the throat, and Tang Sihuang's Adam's apple moved rhythmically. Tang Miao stared in a daze. He didn't come back to his senses until he heard the cries of Charles and Heiwei in the distance. The yells of the two were so urgent that Tang Miao's expression became tense, and he ran a few steps and jumped onto the roof of the car, raised his binoculars to look into the distance, and couldn't help but let out a low cry.
"Dude, a large group of zombies are coming this way!"
