Just as Jiang Baiyu and the others were looking at the corpse in confusion, a sound suddenly came from the woods behind.
Jiang Baiyu turned around and saw the old man who had just left, speaking angrily to the person behind him.
The people behind them looked like they had been doing farm work all year round.
The body is very strong, the skin is dark, and he looks very strong.
"Who are you all? Why do you want to bully the elders of my family?" One of the tallest men spoke with a hint of dialect.
Duan Tianwen held a cigarette in his mouth and said with a smile: "It's okay, we are official people. We happened to pass by here and accidentally scared you old people."
Listening to Duan Tianwen speaking the other party's dialect, Jiang Baiyu raised his eyebrows.
Hearing that the other party also spoke in dialect, the man became obviously less wary.
He gestured as he spoke: "My old man dug up the body and buried it. I'm sorry for scaring you."
Hearing this, Jiang Baiyu and the others' doubts just now were resolved.
So he waved his hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay, we were driving too carelessly."
The main reason is that no one would have thought that someone would be crossing the road in this apocalypse.
Fortunately, the old man reacted quickly when he heard the sound of the car, put down the body and ran away.
Otherwise, there would be two corpses lying there now.
"Where do you live? How many people are there? Are there any infected people?" After Duan Tianwen introduced the identities of their group, he began to ask the strong man routinely.
The strong man answered Duan Tianwen's question honestly.
Then he asked Duan Tianwen: "Why are you asking these questions? Are you trying to release supplies for us?"
"No, after roughly understanding it, we will send someone to take you to the base on the high seas. There will be safe protection and sufficient food and fresh water resources there." Duan Tianwen shook his head.
The moment he saw Duan Tianwen shaking his head, the strong man's expression changed.
He asked hesitantly: "Can you not leave? Our children and grandchildren all live here. I'm afraid we won't get used to it if we leave!"
"I'm sorry, you don't have to leave, but in the later stages, the official will implement a zombie cleanup plan, and all areas rescued by us will be dropped with certain bombs and weapons."
The strong man's expression changed again and again, and he knew what it meant.
That is to say, even if they don't go with Duan Tianwen and the others, they will still be killed by bombs in the later stage.
"But you don't have human rights like this? Why don't you ask us for our opinion?" The woman behind the strong man also understood, and she said a little indignantly.
Facing the questions from these people, Jiang Baiyu and Xie Mingtang didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Duan Tianwen has obviously faced this situation many times.
He smiled at everyone and said: "Please understand that this is a special period and special methods must be adopted. We cannot sacrifice the interests of the vast majority of people for the sake of a very small number of individuals."
After hearing Duan Tianwen's words, those people also fell into silence.
Finally, it was the strong man who knocked on the board and said, "Why don't you wait until we go back to discuss it? I'll let you know when we get the result. Is that okay?"
"Of course, no problem. If you don't mind, can we go to your settlement to rest?"
Hearing what Duan Tianwen said, everyone's expressions showed a hint of alertness.
Duan Tianwen spread his hands and said with a smile: "We now have guns and weapons, and you at most have some farm tools. If I want to harm you, can't I just kidnap you now? I have to go to a place where there are many of you. Waiting for you to resist?"
Hearing what Duan Tianwen said, the strong man also felt that it made sense.
So he nodded, turned sideways and said to Duan Tianwen and the others: "But our place is very simple, and I don't know if you can live there."
"It's okay. We brought our own tents. We can just sleep in the tents." Duan Tianwen waved his hand.
For a settlement like this, the surrounding zombies have basically been cleared away.
And they also have Xie Mingtang who can control zombies.
You don’t have to worry about sleeping in a tent.
There are many people in the strong man's settlement, which seems to be almost the same as the number of people in a village before the end.
They were gathered together in a cave at the moment.
After seeing the strong man and his companions coming back, a little kid ran over and said, "Is this what I'm having for dinner today?"
Hearing this sentence, Jiang Baiyu frowned.
Duan Tianwen, who also understood, also felt a little strange.
Why do you say they are dinner?
"Yao'er, how many times have I told you that I want my maid to cook dinner for you." The strong man knelt down and picked up the little baby.
The strong man smiled sheepishly at Jiang Baiyu and the others: "The child is still young and has problems with his expression ability."
The little doll sucked her fingers, looking at Jiang Baiyu and saying hello with a smile: "Sister, you are so beautiful!"
Hearing the little doll's praise, Jiang Baiyu touched his face in embarrassment.
"It feels delicious!" the little doll said with a smile.
Jiang Baiyu stretched out his hand and asked the strong man: "Can I hug your child?"
"Of course it's no problem." He handed the child to Jiang Baiyu very readily.
Jiang Baiyu held the little baby and vaguely smelled a rotten smell on her body.
Take another look at the other people.
Probably because there wasn’t enough water in the cave, I didn’t take a bath that often.
Thinking that he was still smelly when he died in his previous life, Jiang Baiyu smiled and said nothing.
After hearing the strong man say that they were all official people, these people did not show much excitement, but were more vigilant.
Jiang Baiyu wondered if they had been deceived by someone claiming to be official before, so he asked directly.
When the strong man heard Jiang Baiyu's question, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "Yes, there was a group of people who said they were here to rescue us, but in the end they took away all our belongings and killed several of us! "
"Could it be Lin Weisen and the others who did it?" Duan Tianwen narrowed his eyes.
Unexpectedly, Xie Mingtang shook his head and said: "It is impossible to leave so many people alive. This is not Lin Weisen's way of life."
This is true.
If it was Lin Weisen, he would have killed all the old, weak, women and children in this cave long ago.
Only young and strong men who can work will be left.
"I didn't expect that there are so many people pretending to be officials in this world." Jiang Baiyu sighed and shook his head.
Qin Xue walked to Jiang Baiyu, patted her shoulder and said: "In a sense, it is also in peacetime, our officialdom is very good, so people will trust the officialdom at this time, allowing those people to have the opportunity You can take advantage of it.”
That's the same truth.
