Zhou Tang and Cheng Mu were busy until night. Night fell. Fortunately, although firelight could not be used, the moon in the sky was bright and bright, and they could barely see with the moonlight.
One after another people climbed out of the dug hole, and the nuns and priests in the church were the last to come out.
Cheng Mu held the priest's arm with his big hand and dragged him out.
Zhou Tang had already lost his strength and sat on the side of the cave entrance.
He said softly, "Father, there is water and bread here. Please fill your stomach first."
The priest had half-long golden hair hanging down, and the dust on his head could not hide its smoothness.
"Thank you."
"Where did this come from?"
Zhou Tang explained, "We once left the church to search for the collapsed and ownerless houses. We were able to find so much food because we found a small shop."
"In a neighborhood not far from here, the boss there was crushed into the collapsed stone blocks of the wall and lost his voice..."
As soon as Zhou Tang said that, the priest knew who she was talking about.
"That old guy..." the priest sighed. If the old guy was still alive, why wouldn't he come to the church?
He turned to look at the collapsed church, which had mostly collapsed. At that time, more than half of the people hiding in the church were less...
He took a sip of water and stared blankly at the full moon hanging in the sky, wondering where the road ahead would go.
People who had recovered from the illness gathered around the priest and asked in low voices, "Father, where are we going now?"
"Yeah, where are we going?" The tone was sad, the home was bombed, the church was destroyed...
They are the only ones left who are like duckweeds with no roots and can only float with the water...
If a person falls into such a desolate place, why not just die?
But then I thought about it, now that we are in this situation, every day we can live is a day we have picked up!
"Although the weather is not cold, it is almost October and the temperature drops at night. We should find a place to take shelter!"
"Let's go to the hospital! I remember someone saying that Sam's clinic is now a field hospital!"
Suddenly someone whispered, "The churches we were hiding in were deliberately blown up by the armed forces, and the hospital..."
There was silence all around.
yes!
Anyone can see that the armed forces deliberately dropped missiles to blow up the church! Such a close distance is enough to destroy their shelter.
He was so cruel and ruthless that he didn't leave any escape route for people like them.
At this time, the priest said with finality, "Let's go to Sam Clinic together."
His eyes moved slightly, thinking of Zhou Tang and Cheng Mu who did not give up and dug a hole with their bare hands to save them from fire and water.
I also thought that if the person just guessed correctly and the field hospital suffered disaster, they could also provide help.
Everyone tidied up the things on the ground, packed them up, and spontaneously helped each other in twos and threes and set off to the block where Sam's Clinic was located.
As they walked, the priest slowly fell behind the leader and slowly came to Zhou Tang and Cheng Mu.
The priest walked beside them without speaking for a long time, and Cheng Mu and Zhou Tang were also silent.
Zhou Tang was so tired from digging rocks and bricks earlier that he was still being carried away by Cheng Mu, while Cheng Mu had nothing to say.
He grew up in the Interstellar Alliance era and had no understanding of the Ancient Blue Star. Even if there was a problem with the game, he only understood the general history of the Ancient Blue Star...
Sometimes it's better not to say anything than to say it.
The priest hesitated for a long time and then said, "Old man, he was the shop owner. How did he die?"
Zhou Tang sighed and said, "We didn't find his body. It seems that he was hit by rocks that were blown away, and most of the shop collapsed, so he was trapped under the pile of rocks. He... couldn't get out... and there was no one there." save him."
The priest was silent, just like they were buried under the collapsed church before, although there was a space for them to survive temporarily.
But what about as time goes by?
How long can they survive without oxygen, food, and medicine?
The priest made a pious gesture and kept praying...
The moonlight shone on his face, making him look extremely pale.
It also hints at how powerless his current actions are...
"You are good people!"
Zhou Tang shook his head slightly, "We have no way out. We can no longer watch so many people die in front of us. If you have a little strength, just use a little more strength..."
She then asked slowly and in a low voice, "Father, will the Allied forces really come in three days?"
The priest glanced at the people around him. Zhou Tang spoke in a low voice. Only the three of them walking side by side heard everything.
He just replied, "I don't know!"
Just like he was originally sure that the armed forces would not blow up the church so ruthlessly, but he was slapped hard by the real environment!
This slap hurt and left a piece of his heart missing...
Now? Can he still be sure that the Allied forces will really come as promised?
He couldn't say it, so he said it was just a little comfort that the person in front of him was seeking from him.
"But they will never give up on us!"
The priest's eyes narrowed slightly, "Because there is one of us..."
Zhou Tang frowned slightly, and even Cheng Mu instantly understood the meaning of the priest's words.
So did the armed forces have a sufficient reason to bomb the church so frantically and without moral ethics?
Find and kill him!
"Where is he?" Zhou Tang's voice was as cold as ice.
The priest smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I don't know. 'He' was only a rumor in our area some time ago, but...then this area was blocked by armed forces with force, and then it was bombarded by missiles in the past few days... "
The more the priest said this, the more Zhou Tang was able to confirm it.
Otherwise, why would the armed forces waste expensive missiles just to satisfy their hatred? There must be a meaning behind it.
First, blow up the homes of civilians, drive them out, and gather them together, whether in a church or a field hospital.
The people gathered were bombarded once again…
I absolutely don't want him to leave here alive.
Zhou Tang had no intention of continuing to ask, and the three of them followed the large army and moved silently towards Sam Clinic.
The priest was in a state of confusion, and Zhou Tang's questions confirmed his answer.
Because there were still injured people in the team of twenty or thirty people, they walked very slowly. It took about an hour and a half before they slowly approached the block where Sam's Clinic is located.
As they walked along, this neighborhood seemed even more miserable than where they were... There were more traces of missiles, more than half of the buildings had collapsed, and almost all of them were collapsed rocks...
The more this happens, the heavier everyone feels.
After walking a few hundred meters, we finally arrived at Sam Clinic...
Are there any other clinics?
A half-collapsed house…
There's blood everywhere...
Zhou Tang took a deep breath and covered her mouth with her hand, but Cheng Mu slowly stretched out a hand to wrap around her shoulder.
The priest rushed to the front and lay down directly on the stones, bricks, and soil, knocking on them and asking in a low voice.
"Anyone else?"
"Is anyone here?"
"Are we here to rescue you?"
"Speak!" Someone cried uncontrollably again.
"Why?"
"Why are you attacking us?"
"We are just civilians."
Missiles will not ignore you because you are unimportant.
The wheel of history will only push you forward silently, won't you? Then it will become an inconspicuous point in the history books...
Fortunately, there was still a faint sound coming out.
The people who heard it were overjoyed and turned around and called people over softly, "Come quickly! There is movement here! Let's dig here."
"Come here quickly."
Zhou Tang joined the team of poaching without hesitation. No matter what, what she had to do was to strengthen her team. Only when she has manpower can things be done easily.
Cheng Mu also followed. With more people and greater strength, everyone worked tirelessly and finally dug out the rocks covering it...
It’s just that they haven’t waited for them to cheer and rejoice...
My voice that made their whole bodies tremble came again.
"Boom!"
"boom…"
The priest immediately said, "Don't gather together, please disperse!"
"Everyone retreat first! Come back after the plane has passed..."
"quick!"
Without the priest's reminder, Cheng Mu grabbed Zhou Tang's collar and led her away from Sam Clinic quickly.
Although we can see that Sam Clinic is almost in ruins, who knows if those frantic armed forces will launch a few more missiles?
Relying on his excellent military sense, Cheng Mu first led Zhou Tang to run for several hundred meters, and then ducked into a half-collapsed house to hide.
Unexpectedly, the priest also followed them into the place.
Zhou Tang glanced at the priest and said nothing!
Not long after they hid, they heard a loud explosion in their ears.
"boom!"
Not long after, another dozen roars came.
Zhou Tang tightly covered his head with his clothes.
This time the bombing lasted a little shorter, and after a while there was deathly silence.
Zhou Tang looked silently as he kept praying in his mouth and kept moving his hands while glancing at me, the priest.
"Can you tell me, who is he?" Is it worth using the civilians in this area to bury him alone?
The priest paused for a moment and stopped his devout prayer...
Zhou Tang said softly, "You want to tell us! Otherwise, you wouldn't be here."
The priest stopped completely and looked directly at Zhou Tang, "I only know that he is a high-ranking figure in the Allied Army! The Allied Army cannot abandon him! The armed forces cannot let him return to the Allied Army."
"How can you say that he is an indispensable figure in the Allied Forces?"
"How could such a person appear in this area? Who leaked the news?" Zhou Tang asked one question after another.
The priest had only heard the gossip, which was true and false, and the information revealed was just a rumor and a rumor of confusion.
The priest looked at Zhou Tang with his light blue eyes and told her bluntly that he didn't know.
Faced with the confused priest, Zhou Tang could only take a deep breath and ask again, "So do you know what he looks like? He is tall, short, fat, and thin? His hair color? Skin color?"
The priest turned his head and whispered, "I have only seen him once, and I don't know if he is the real person! He is strong and has short brown hair..."
Finally he asked, "You want to find him!"
Zhou Tang was dissatisfied and said with a sense of irony, "If we follow him, we can survive, right?"
The priest walked out of the house silently and walked to Sam Clinic without saying a word.
Cheng Mu and Zhou Tang slowly followed behind him.
Cheng Mu asked seriously, "Tangtang, do you suspect that after the plane bombing is over, armed soldiers will come here to search for him?"
Zhou Tang nodded, "It's not impossible!"
"This person is very important. They will come in to confirm whether he is dead! Maybe the people around him betrayed him..."
"us…"
Zhou Tang solemnly said, "It seems that we need to gather everyone together. There is strength in numbers! In order to fight against the soldiers who may enter this area at any time."
Of course, this is not absolute. You can fight with more people and you can still fight guerrillas with fewer people. In short, you have to adapt to local conditions.
The two once again joined the poaching team.
Because there were no lights or facilities, and relying solely on manpower and moonlight, the group of them could only move faster than Cheng Mu and the two of them in the afternoon.
But it was still effective.
There is a basement under Sam's Clinic. When the air raid came, some of them hid here.
This place also became their life-saving place, but the entrance and exit of the life-saving place was blocked.
Now the digging was opened, and ten or twenty people came out from here.
Others also dug out some people who were pinned down by bricks in the wall.
Zhou Tang took a few deep breaths today. She hugged her knees and looked at the seriously injured or dead people lined up on the slightly flat ground.
Cheng Mu came to her side and whispered, "I saw the bodies of two players."
One of them was the man who came here after asking him...
It’s true that one of them wants to live and the other wants to die...
There is no cure for seriously injured people, so they have to wait for death in this dark world.
Zhou Tang said softly, "This is war! Those injured in war are always civilians who have no strength to restrain themselves."
"When it prospers, the people suffer; when it dies, the people suffer."
Even if it develops like the Interstellar Alliance era, wars cannot be avoided.
As a soldier, Cheng Mu had also experienced several wars, big and small, and he took it more lightly than Zhou Tang.
The priest was busy until midnight and came to Zhou Tang and the others again.
He lowered his head, his golden hair already stained by dust. "Someone has seen him."
Zhou Tang frowned and looked at the priest, signaling him to continue.
"He showed up at the field hospital a day ago, he was injured."
The injury was neither minor nor serious, but he did not stay at Sam's Clinic. After the wound was bandaged, he left here with his companions, and still left in the direction of their church.
It is called a field hospital because it takes in mostly injured people. Of course, the mobility here is also very high.
At this time, the priest also fully confirmed that his presence was responsible for the constant deaths of people.
He glanced at Zhou Tang, "I know you want to find him."
"You think so too." Zhou Tang said calmly. This so-called "him" has always only appeared in the priest's mouth, and because of the concealment of his identity, most people are destined not to recognize him, and even if they have seen him, they will ignore him.
It was difficult for her to judge the authenticity of what the priest said.
The priest lowered his voice and said angrily, "Of course I want to! Me!"
