Chapter 1694: Help you to ascend to the throne (forty-eight
The manor was silent at midnight. Wei Dazhuang and Hu Xiaodong were sitting at the entrance of the first floor of the building holding a 95 automatic rifle.
According to Lao Xu's instructions, their mission tonight is to guard this point, firstly to prevent the survivors from the manor on the second floor of the embankment from moving, and secondly, to prevent peripheral enemies from sneaking into the park.
Of course, this possibility is basically slim, not to mention the two three-meter defenses inside and outside the manor, but the Thunder Eye sentry point on the mountain in the distance is enough to warn the brothers below before the crisis comes.
With nothing to do, Wei Dazhuang took out his mobile phone, adjusted the frequency to the internal public frequency, and then said: "Hey, Lei Zi, are you there? If you hear me, please reply."
Lei Tong was leaning against the tree trunk, holding a lone leaf in his mouth.
This is the habit of Lei Tong and other scouts. They hold leaves in their mouths to chew the stems and leaves to wake themselves up. Secondly, in emergencies, they can use the leaves to simply measure wind speed and direction.
Although this method is not accurate, for snipers, it is a rare calibration tool in the outdoors.
Wei Dazhuang's call to Lei Tong could be clearly heard in the handstand. He quickly raised the telescope in his hand and scanned around the inside and outside of the manor.
No abnormalities found!
After confirming that everything was fine, Lei Tong put down the telescope, picked up the handheld device, pressed the call button and replied loudly: "I'm Lei Tong, what's wrong with Da Zhuang?"
"Ah, haha, it's nothing. During this long night, I thought you were bored alone in the mountains, so I wanted to chat with you. Oh, by the way, can you see us there?"
Wei Dazhuang was in great spirits after taking a shower that night, and was completely gone from the mania he had felt towards everyone in the manor earlier.
After hearing this, Lei Tong smiled and replied: "If you don't throw away your melon seed shells, I think the people in the manor will like you more."
The implication is that I can even see you eating melon seeds, let alone Wei Dazhuang.
Hearing the ridicule in Lei Tong's words, Wei Dazhuang didn't think twice, and immediately retorted: "You can pull down Lei Zi, those unlucky things, if I want them to like them, I would rather choke to death on melon seeds."
"Haha, Brother Da Zhuang, please don't set up flags there randomly. It's true that what you think about every day is what you dream about at night. Although it's late at night, but you say so...don't cough."
Since it was a public channel, Tang Xiaoquan naturally heard the banter between Lei Tong and Wei Dazhuang.
As soon as Tang Xiaoquan joined, the entire channel immediately became lively.
During the long night, several members of the Victory Alliance team responsible for guarding the safety of the manor were enjoying themselves and passing away the boring time.
In a village a hundred kilometers away, Duan Chengwu and Wenquan Xin were standing guard with guns in hand.
Compared to the hustle and bustle in the manor, it is obviously much quieter here.
Wenquan Xin was guarding the high tower alone, while Duan Chengwu was staying in the small room at the entrance to guard the door.
There was no talking all night, and the next morning, the team members got up early without any special instructions.
This has become a habit developed by everyone.
Even if you tell the survivors to sleep in, they can't do it now.
This is what is said about habits becoming natural.
After getting up, everyone walked towards the manor one after another. Everyone's spirits and complexions had changed significantly compared to yesterday.
Old Xu Da had already gotten up early. After replacing Tang Xiaoquan, he had been on duty in the operation room for almost more than an hour.
He waited until everyone got up and Huang Shuang came over, then he took charge of the chariot.
After getting off the car, Lao Xu had just headed towards the manor to join the team members when he saw Liu Mu walking over quickly: "Brother Xu, morning."
"Well, morning, Liu Mu."
"How was it? Did you have a good rest last night? Are you still used to sleeping here?" Liu Mu was concerned.
Lao Xu smiled and nodded: "It's good. I haven't slept so solidly in a long time."
Lao Xu used haha to excuse Liu Mu.
He slept really well last night. It was rare that Lao Xu didn't go out for inspection. He finally slept until dawn as required by the team members.
But none of this has anything to do with the manor, because after all, Lao Xu is still in the chariot.
There was no way, as a company cadre, Xu Renjie was used to worrying.
This doomsday chariot is the key to the survival of their outgoing team. Old Xu does not want to cause problems with this doomsday fortress that the brothers have worked so hard to build due to his own negligence.
So other team members can go to the manor and enjoy the comfort of the soft bed, but Xu Renjie has to ensure the safety of the doomsday chariot.
Liu Mu obviously didn't know this. After getting the reply from Old Xu that he was sleeping well, the young man followed up very smartly: "Haha, since he was sleeping well, Brother Xu, you might as well stay a few more days. Anyway, this is a family search. I’m not saying it can be completed in a day or two. Wouldn’t it be better to recuperate your mental and physical strength here before taking action?”
Looking at Liu Mu with a smile, the young man wondered how could Lao Xu not know.
Liu Mu was planning to use a good rest as an excuse to let him stay.
After that, when the skinheads come over, we won't be able to intervene even if we want to.
It's a pity that Lao Xu couldn't understand such a simple and easy-to-understand thing.
But this is not the point. The fact that the young man can play this trick shows that he has indeed begun to think about things for the manor.
Especially the phrase "my manor" used by young people. The Chinese language is broad and profound, and in many cases, ordinary words can allow people to infer a person's thoughts.
There is no doubt that Liu Mu said this unintentionally, but it is precisely such unintentional words that can best reflect a person's inner thoughts.
Liu Mu was able to put forward such persuasive suggestions at such a moment, as well as the rhetoric of "my manor" that he couldn't help but reveal, all of which showed that the young man had begun to gradually accept his identity as the owner of the manor.
And this result is undoubtedly what Xu Renjie is happy to see.
It's just that although things are happy and satisfying, Liu Mu's advice must not be agreed to.
Lao Xu would not be stupid enough to take the risk of fighting the skinhead forces who do not know the details for the so-called comfortable life.
"Haha, brother Liu, we discussed it with our brothers last night, and most of us still agree to leave after just one day of repair. You know that each of us has lost relatives because of the end of the world. We didn't have the ability to search in the past, but now we have the opportunity to go To do this, everyone still hopes to find their family members as soon as possible. You have experienced this, so you can understand it. As for staying and living, don’t worry, brother, this is normal, and things will always happen in the future. There will be a chance. After our search for relatives is completed, if everything goes well, I will definitely come back and stay here for a few more days."
Lao Xu politely rejected Liu Mu's proposal, and at the same time reversed the situation and paved the way for a future cooperative alliance.
It is not difficult to see from this back and forth confrontation that Liu Mu is still far behind Lao Xu, and there are still many, many roads he needs to take.
