When Du Yan woke up, he was the only one left on the bed. He glanced at the time, it was already noon.
In this dream, Du Yan's body is indeed very weak. The day before yesterday, I escaped from the research institute, and yesterday I ran for my life in the trading center, and my body was indeed extremely exhausted.
Perhaps it was the sense of security brought by Shen Heng that allowed Du Yan to relax his vigilance and completely relax. As a result, he slept until noon.
Du Yan got up and went out the door after finishing his work, but there was still no one in the living room. He didn't panic either, Shen Heng's life was a promise, and he would never go back on what he promised.
Du Yan thought, Shen Heng couldn't run away anyway, even if he left for a while, he wouldn't be surprised. This certainty of his mentality completely collapsed when he opened the door.
In the empty yard yesterday, a huge car appeared. Du Yan also knew about this kind of car. It uses nuclear power, has huge horsepower, and can carry a lot of things.
Infected people live in no fixed place, and most infected people who move together will have such a car called "giant" as a mobile home.
However, Shen Heng has always been alone and mostly uses motorcycles or small off-road vehicles as means of transportation. Such giant cars are just a burden to him.
Perhaps it was Du Yan's sound of opening the door, and the people who were busy in the car quickly opened the door and jumped down.
There were beads of sweat on Shen Heng's head. He was only wearing a black vest, and his trousers were stained with oil. It seemed that he had been busy for a while.
He picked up the towel on the side and wiped his face: "You get up, eat some canned food first, we will leave here after eating, and we can eat fresh meat when we reach the infected area."
Du Yan pointed to the car: "Where did this car come from, I didn't seem to see any place to hide this behemoth yesterday."
Shen Heng explained: "In the early hours of this morning, I went back to the No. 1 homeland and put some useful things on the car and brought them here."
"Do you need such a big car?" Du Yan walked over, took a look on tiptoe, and found that it could almost be regarded as a small room.
"You are different from me. If you sleep in the open, your body will definitely not be able to take it." Shen Heng felt a little bit of it for granted.
Well, Du Yan admitted that Shen Heng's concerns were indeed justified, and he asked again, "Wait, you're coming from Homestead No. 1. Vehicles of this size aren't that fast, right?"
Shen Heng nodded: "Well, I'm afraid you will be in a hurry, I carried this car over here."
"..." Du Yan, the weak chicken, couldn't understand the way the infected act at all, and he couldn't imagine how Shen Heng came back so fast with such a huge car on his back.
However, the fact is in front of us, the gap between the infected and the pure is almost as far as cross-species.
After lunch, Shen Heng took Du Yan towards the No. 5 homestead. Du Yan did not stay in the back room, but sat in the passenger seat.
Du Yan was dismantling a hand and a gun in his hand, which was given to him by Shen Heng just now, saying it was for self-defense.
"This gun won't work. From its structure, its power is too low, and it shouldn't pose a fatal threat to mutant creatures." Du Yan quickly dismantled his gun into parts, pouting his lips in disgust.
Shen Heng was a little helpless: "You are quite skilled in your movements."
Du Yan laughed and looked very proud: "Do you think I'm like the kind of kid who wants to do something, since he has thought about going to the outside world, he will naturally make all preparations. For us pure people with weak physical fitness, the number of mechas is too small and the energy consumption is too high, and firearms are the most practical."
When Shen Heng saw Du Yan talking about firearms, he nodded: "There are more powerful weapons in the back, I was afraid that you would hurt yourself if you were not familiar with them, so I picked this one for you to familiarize yourself with, since you If there is research, I will pick what I like later.”
"It's about the same." Du Yan assembled the handle with one shot, and tried aiming out the window.
The lights of the radio in the car suddenly turned on, indicating that there was a global broadcast. Shen Heng stretched out his hand to open it, and the announcement sounded with current noise.
"My compatriots, the existing staff of the First Research Institute have absconded after stealing the new anti-radiation agent..."
The content of the broadcast was the same as what was heard in the trading center the day before, and the First Research Institute had already started a search for Du Yan.
Shen Heng frowned slightly, but Du Yan scratched his hair and asked, "Is there anything that can be disguised in your collection? I'm a little conspicuous now. It is said that there was something called cosmetics before the war. You can change your skin tone or something."
Shen Heng was stunned for a moment, and said, "I don't have it here. I'll look for it in the city ahead, but I don't know if it can still be used before the war."
The two were discussing disguise, and Shen Heng's personal communicator turned on again, indicating that a message had entered.
Shen Heng raised his hand to open it, and there was a man's voice inside.
"This is the No. 135 settlement tribe, are you on your way back now?"
After hearing this, Shen Heng showed an embarrassed expression on his face. He glanced at Du Yan, not knowing how to speak.
Du Yan was already quick-witted, and when he saw Shen Heng's expression, he knew something was happening, and he asked directly, "Is there something that needs to be changed, so I can't go to the No. 5 home for the time being?"
Shen Heng nodded: "There are so many things that happened in the past two days, I almost forgot that the main purpose of returning to the No. 1 homeland this time is to help them exchange anti-radiation medicine."
Du Yan was a little strange and asked, "Speaking of what do you mean by settlement tribes? Isn't the current human settlements only divided into major homes and scattered shelters? And why did they entrust you to help in exchange for radiation medicine?"
Shen Heng explained: "The inhabited tribes are not officially recognized. They have no ID cards in their homes and shelters, and the trading center will not trade with them."
"Not officially recognized? Why." Du Yan's knowledge of the outside world came from the data. Naturally, he was completely ignorant of these inhabited tribes recorded in the data.
Shen Heng patiently explained the origin of the inhabited tribe.
Simply put, these colonies are places where the infected and the pure who have left their homes live together. The current human ruling class actually advocates isolating the pure and the infected, and the official reason is naturally the continuation of the human race.
However, there are still many pure people who hate being in captivity and try to leave. In order to avoid genetic pollution and curb the behavior of pure people from leaving their homes, the ruling class has issued a ban, prohibiting shelters outside their homes from taking in pure people who have fled without permission.
Du Yan still felt a little strange: "To be honest, the purers are completely useless in the world outside their homeland. Why should these infected people take the risk of not being officially recognized to take them in?"
Shen Heng glanced at Du Yan, and soon looked at the road ahead: "In order to reproduce, they are betting on the one in ten thousand possibility that they may be able to continue their bloodline..."
Du Yan was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Continuing the bloodline? What a beautiful hope."
His laughter sounded something else.
Shen Heng didn't seem to notice, but asked: "Then let's go to the No. 135 tribe first, okay?"
"Okay, anyway, it's all about seeing the outside world, it doesn't matter the order."
After Shen Heng got Du Yan's consent, he turned the steering wheel and controlled the car to turn around and drive in the other direction.
The No. 1, 3, and No. 5 settlement tribes are located at the junction of the No. 1 homeland and the No. 2 homeland. It can only be regarded as a small settlement, and there are only more than 100 residents living here. Plus the remote location, many people do not know that there is still a human settlement here.
Old A came to the entrance and exit of the settlement again today. He stood at the sentry on the cliff and looked into the distance.
The only person who dutifully accompanies him is the electronic machine gun turret. They spent a lot of resources in exchange for the new machine gun tower, using the latest infrared detection technology, and are vigilantly scanning for mutant creatures that may appear from all directions.
Old A is waiting for someone who can save the entire tribe at this moment.
He has been waiting at the sentry post for three consecutive days during the day, returning every day disappointed, and then quietly and silently losing a few companions at night.
Fortunately, today's wait finally came to an end.
At the end of the gray road, a moving object finally appeared. Old A was overjoyed and took a few steps forward, but stopped again when he saw it clearly.
It was a "monster".
Not him, Shen Heng would never choose a giant beast as a means of transportation.
Old A raised his vigilance, and it was hard to say that the infected people who suddenly appeared in such a remote tribe appeared with good intentions. He got up and turned on all the remaining machine gun turrets that had been powered off for conservation purposes.
However, the "giant beast" just stopped outside the warning range of the machine gun tower, the door opened, and someone jumped from it.
Old A put down the communicator in his hand, looking at the familiar figure, he knew it was a false alarm.
He raised his hand to close the machine gun turret, and was about to go down from the post when he saw a scene that made his jaw drop.
That Shen Heng, who was like a lone wolf, always alone, turned around and hugged someone out of the car! Looking at his movements, he was extremely gentle and careful, as if he was afraid of knocking a single hair off the man.
Old A rubbed his eyes, and even began to wonder if he was genetically aging, and he was about to enter the stage of death before he saw this incredible hallucination.
However, his eyes were a little sore from rubbing, and the hallucination did not disappear. The person who was hugged by Shen Heng also showed his face at this moment. It was actually a pure youth, with fair skin and delicate facial features, looking like a pampered child.
Shen Heng actually abducted a pure person from the No. 1 home? No, what did he kidnap a boy for, and he couldn't have a child...
Old A finally couldn't bear it any longer, jumped directly from the post, and greeted him with full of doubts.
