After listening to Liu Nian's words, Qi Dong fell silent.
Although this sounds a bit rough, it is not rough.
Taking a long puff of cigarette, Qi Dong felt for the first time that the blue smoke was a bit harsh on his eyes.
Throwing the remaining half of the cigarette on the ground, Qi Dong nodded.
"Old man Mu said he would take me to find his friend, who is said to be an authority in this field."
"That's good." Liu Nian nodded and said nothing more.
Qi Dong looked at Liu Nian and suddenly smiled.
"why are you laughing?"
Liu Nian was confused by Qi Dong's smile and looked at him in confusion.
"You said that if I didn't make it through and died, could I become a ghost? Then wouldn't we become a couple of ghosts?"
"..."
Liu Nian rolled his eyes when he heard this.
This guy, how old is he, is still in the mood to be funny here.
"You think beautifully."
"I have someone I like. Although I want to kill him now, it doesn't stop me. I still like him."
"...You can be a real logic wizard."
Qi Dong now doubts whether he was right to keep this bitch with him. If this thing really has a chance to fight Dr. G in the future, if she suddenly switches sides again, wouldn't he have nowhere to cry?
No, it seems I have to find a chance to dump him!
Qi Dong secretly planned in his heart.
…
After a short rest, Qi Dong felt that his physical strength was almost restored, so he set off again.
Have no idea!
They were driving a car, but he took bus 11 there. If he didn't rush the distance, they would have finished their errands and he wouldn't have arrived yet.
So, facing the rising sun, Qi Dong reluctantly walked towards S city with his bag on his back.
"Huh?"
After walking for who knows how long, Qi Dong felt that the soles of his feet were numb.
After eating something and replenishing some water, Qi Dong planned to set off again.
But when he glanced casually, he suddenly discovered that in a field not far away from him, there was an old lady with a headscarf wrapped around her head, pouting in the field doing farm work.
"I am stupid?"
Qi Dong was confused, and so was Liu Nian.
Where did an old lady wearing a headscarf appear out of nowhere in this barren mountain?
Isn't it like the girl just now, also a devil?
"What, old lady, are you getting up so early to do farm work?"
When he got closer, Qi Dong showed a smile that he thought was not very embarrassing, but his right hand had already quietly touched the frog knife behind his back.
If the old lady turned around and looked different from other people, he would definitely chop her down without hesitation.
After hearing Qi Dong's words, the old lady turned around tremblingly.
call!
After seeing that the old lady looked like a normal person, Qi Dong breathed a sigh of relief, and the hand holding the frog knife also relaxed.
The old lady looked Qi Dong up and down first, as if to confirm Qi Dong's condition.
Seeing that Qi Dong was also a normal person, he smiled and said: "Isn't this for livelihood? The world is in chaos now and we can't sell it. I just want to grow some for myself."
"Grow vegetables for your own consumption? Old lady, it's so dangerous out here. Why don't you leave and go to a safer city?"
Qi Dong was a little surprised. Logically speaking, this place is connected to City G. It is the dividing line between City G and City S. There should also be zombies.
But now...there is no sign of a zombie anywhere, except for the perverted girl I saw just now.
"Leave?" The old lady smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"I have lived here all my life. It is not that easy to leave. What's more, my legs and feet are not strong and it is inconvenient to go anywhere, so I won't cause trouble to the country."
"Old lady, do you live here alone?"
Hearing the old lady's words, Qi Dong stood in awe.
Needless to say, this old lady’s consciousness is higher than that of most young people.
"And my wife."
The old lady didn't look in good health. After saying this, she coughed violently.
Qi Dong looked at the old lady, inexplicably feeling a little sad. He didn't know how his mother was doing, and whether there was anyone in City C to take care of them.
"well!"
With a helpless sigh, Qi Dong planned to take Chen Qing to City C to find them after rescuing Chen Qing.
At least in the face of disaster, he was by their side and had someone to take care of them.
Thinking of this, Qi Dong turned around and left, continuing towards S city.
But as soon as he took two steps, the old lady behind him suddenly stopped him.
"Young man, wait."
Qi Dong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and turned around to look at the old lady with some confusion.
"I was working in the fields just now and accidentally sprained my foot. Can you help me get it back? Don't worry, I'm a good person. I won't harm you, and I won't let your help go in vain. I I’ll give you some food as compensation.”
Upon hearing this, Qi Dong instinctively took two steps back.
To support or not to support?
This is no longer just a matter of love and kindness, but has risen to sociology.
In the past, there were examples of people who helped an old lady cross the road and received large compensation. Although similar situations will not happen now, there will be some other twists and turns in the case of incomplete insurance.
Seeing that Qi Dong didn't speak, the old lady anxiously rolled up her trouser legs, pointed at her somewhat red and swollen ankle and said, "Look, it's all swollen. I really didn't lie to you."
In fact, in Qi Dong's heart, support is better than no support. After seeing the old lady's swollen ankles, Qi Dong became more determined to help the old lady.
"Okay, old lady, I'll help you."
In fact, Qi Dong has selfish motives in his heart. Being able to get food as reward at this time is much better than giving money.
There was not much food left in his backpack. If he didn't replenish it, it might be a problem to survive until S City.
Besides, just because he couldn't feel hungry didn't mean he didn't need to eat.
Fortunately, the process of helping the old lady went relatively smoothly. The old lady did not lie to him. After helping him to his residence in a serious manner, Qi Dong found a horse in the yard and sat down.
Qi Dong originally thought that the old lady and the old man were dependent on each other, but when he actually entered the old lady's home, he found that the old man was disabled. His legs were broken for unknown reasons and he could only live in a wheelchair.
Seeing this, Qi Dong sighed helplessly in his heart again. No wonder the old lady didn't want to leave. There were still many obstacles on the way while pushing the old man. It would be better to live here picking chrysanthemums under the east fence and leisurely seeing the scenery of Nanshan. Life.
Live one day, live one day, count one day at a time.
After the old lady simply cleaned up the old man, she lit a fire in the cauldron.
Originally, the old lady's family was in a tight situation and she raised several livestock just to sell them for money.
But thanks to the end of the world, there is no need to sell it for money. Qidong just came and killed a chicken and stewed it.
When Qi Dong saw the stewed chicken on the table, his eyes widened.
To put it bluntly, from the beginning of the apocalypse to now, how could he have eaten like this? If Xu Qian and the others found out about this, they might not know how they would scold themselves.
The aroma of silky and tender chicken wafted out, and even Qi Dong's body, which had been unable to feel hunger since the mutation, began to grunt in protest, as if urging him to start as soon as possible.
Qi Dong almost cried as he picked up the chopsticks with some hesitation.
It had been a long time since he had touched chopsticks. He had forgotten about them in his ordinary life and started to pick them up again.
The head of the chopsticks tremblingly touched a chicken leg, and with almost no effort, it was picked off the whole chicken.
"It's waxy, it's really waxy."
Qi Dong was grinning like a child who just got a new toy.
The old lady sitting nearby looked at Qi Dong's smile and couldn't help but laugh.
"Child, don't just take advantage of Silly. Eat it while it's hot. It won't taste good if it gets cold after a while."
