After walking all the way, after leaving, Hong Tao was somewhat puzzled by Xu Renjie's decision.
Whether it's staying overnight, having a light meal, or talking about fruits and vegetables, Xu Renjie refuses... Hong Tao can understand.
But when leaving, Liu Mu wanted to arrange a ride for him in a car... Xu Renjie refused, so Hong Tao... they just gave him a ride where his car was parked.
It's not that far, so it doesn't take much fuel.
But Hong Tao feels that it is very important to his team.
After all, the delay in the "manor" was a bit long.
Who would have thought that a meeting with survivors of the "Manor" would be held in the "Manor".
The meeting took a lot of time to discuss, and it was getting late. Although the "manor" area was relatively safe, there were no zombies when we arrived.
Don't be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of the worst. The "manor" made such a gift offer... Xu Renjie just accepted it.
First of all, it gave Liu Mu some face.
Otherwise, rejecting others in various ways is not good on the surface. If the guarantee is not fulfilled, Liu Mu will feel that his winner alliance is stingy, because the alliance affairs have not been settled, and others will look down on it.
Secondly, it is our own objective needs.
Now you can reach the vehicle hiding location faster, and your own safety factor is increased.
But Xu Renjie still refused.
How could Xu Renjie not be able to figure out things that Hong Tao could figure out.
The reason why Xu Renjie didn't do this and rejected Liu Mu's kindness was because he had his own deep considerations.
As for why Xu Renjie refused... Hong Tao soon had the answer.
After leaving the "manor", Xu Renjie led the team back the same way.
But after walking almost a hundred meters, and completely away from the "manor", Xu Renjie suddenly stopped.
As soon as he stopped, everyone naturally stopped.
Hu Xiaodong stepped forward to inquire uncertainly: "Old Xu, what's the matter? Is there anything going on?"
Xu Renjie didn't need to say anything. As soon as he stopped, Ye Hao, Hong Tao, and Hu Xiaodong immediately formed a combat defensive formation.
Xu Renjie waved his hand: "It's okay."
"That……"
"Let's go back."
"Ah?" Xu Renjie suddenly gave an inexplicable order, which made Hu Xiaodong completely confused.
Not only Hu Xiaodong, but also Hong Tao, who was on full alert for Hu Xiaodong, was also confused.
"Old Xu, go back? Where are you going?" Hu Xiaodong quickly asked the question in his heart.
I wonder if it’s time to go back to the “Manor”?
But what are you doing back at the "manor" at this juncture?
Hu Xiaodong did not think there was anything special that he had missed in his previous discussions with the "Manor".
Or maybe Xu Renjie changed his mind because he felt that the walkway was unsafe in the dark and planned to go back and stay at the "manor"?
But what if "skinheads" come during the process...
Even though the possibility is unlikely, Xu Renjie told Liu Mu very clearly before... Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.
Turning back now doesn't mean you're slapping yourself in the face.
Hu Xiaodong really couldn't understand the reason for Xu Renjie's operation.
Turning his head, Xu Renjie did not beat around the bush and simply replied with two words: "Go back to the mountain."
"Mountain!?"
"Yes!"
There is no need to confirm that mountain with Xu Renjie.
There is only one hill near here.
Xu Renjie brought it up at this time, naturally referring to the mountains and forests they used to monitor the "manor".
"Old Xu, what are we going to do on the mountain now?" Ye Hao asked from the side.
"Continue to monitor the Manor." Xu Renjie simply responded as usual.
As the saying goes, you must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others!
After hearing Xu Renjie's explanation, everyone was immediately relieved.
It turns out that the main purpose of Xu Renjie's request to go back was for surveillance.
Nodding, Hu Xiaodong immediately affirmed: "Okay, Old Xu, it's getting dark anyway, so let's go to the mountains and deal with it all night."
Traveling at night is always unsafe.
Even if they drive away now, they still have to find a place to rest on the way.
Instead of venturing into an abandoned city, it would be better to go to the mountains and forests.
After all, this is an area that I have been to before, so I am relatively familiar with it.
In addition, as Xu Renjie emphasized, they can continue to take advantage of the high points in the mountains and forests to investigate the "manor".
This action of ours can be regarded as a special move for Liu Mu and the survivors below the "Manor".
After the incident, there is a big question mark as to what the people at the foot of the mountain will do.
Hong Tao was finally relieved that Xu Renjie refused the idea of a ride.
It turns out that the reason why Xu Renjie is unwilling to take a ride is that, to put it bluntly, he has his own ideas and purposes.
It’s not just rejection out of anger.
After confirming, everyone began to follow Xu Renjie as he turned around and moved towards the other side of the mountain forest.
Since I have been to the mountains and forests before, I am naturally very familiar with the routes and locations there.
After successfully reaching the top, Lao Xu and others performed their duties.
Hu Xiaodong, Ye Hao, and Hong Tao were responsible for setting up tents for rest at night and conducting safety inspections.
As for Xu Renjie, he immediately took out his telescope and began to visit the "manor".
The sky is not completely dark yet, so we can still see the situation at the "Manor".
And tonight is very important to Xu Renjie.
What they told the "manor" this time was very impactful.
Originally, if the "manor" staff could get the answer, it would be fine to accept the idea of cooperation.
But unfortunately... in the end, the survivors of the "Manor" had no intention of cooperating.
In this context, Xu Renjie must be more vigilant and implement.
He could trust Liu Mu not to betray, but he couldn't trust the remaining people in the "manor" 100%.
Hu Xiaodong and others set up the tent as quickly as possible.
The place they choose to stay is where they spent the night last night.
So the area was cleaned up, saving a lot of trouble.
After the tent was set up, Hu Xiaodong went to set up a cordon around the camp.
These are all routine operations.
Hong Tao wasn't used to it, but it was completely normal for first-line players like Hu Xiaodong.
Accommodation and safety issues have all been taken care of.
Everyone gathered in the open space in front of the tent.
The sky is getting darker at this moment.
In order to prevent their position in the forest from being exposed, Lao Xu and the others were unable to produce any light.
After taking his backpack, Hu Xiaodong took out food and drinks and distributed them to everyone.
This is probably the most pleasurable time to be out and about.
No wonder, as the saying goes... Food is the most important thing for the people.
Bread, biscuits, canned food, fruit salad.
Lao Xu and the others brought quite a lot of food and drink supplies during this trip.
This is also where the "Winners League" team is superior to other teams.
Even when the village was attacked and occupied by "skinheads", their daily lives remained orderly.
This is where the "Victors Alliance" actually excels.
Hu Xiaodong walked up to Xu Renjie with the can.
Feel free to raise your eyes and look forward!
