Thirty-six strategies, walking is the best strategy. If you know that you can't beat someone and don't run away quickly, then this person must be a fool.
Lang Hua never thought that he was a fool, so he often ran fast at such times. Not only did he run fast, he even had enough energy left to drag Da Zhuang and Li Yishan across the road.
Speaking of which, Li Yishan taught me this kind of thing...
After a few people jumped up and down like monkeys to avoid the attacks of several fastest tree vines, they finally got their wish and approached the south gate of the botanical garden.
At this moment, a figure suddenly stood up among the trees in front of him. The man was wearing a gray shirt and black-rimmed glasses. He stood up and shouted at Lang Hua and the others.
"Get down-"
Out of trust from his past life and this life, Lang Hua lay forward directly on the ground without thinking. The other two people also fell down immediately.
The next moment, a 30mm rifle grenade flew over the heads of the three people and exploded not far behind them. The scorching air waves brushed against my back, and the gravel splashed by the fragments of the bullet shell hurt me. Lang Hua turned around and saw that the chasing trees and vines were all gone, and the broken vines formed a circle with a diameter of five meters on the ground.
There must be a thin monkey on the opposite side. Lang Hua remembered that Shouhou also carried a carbine that could launch grenades with him during combat. It was a relatively lightweight short rifle.
Immediately afterwards, rifle bullets poured out like they were free, almost forming a rain curtain in mid-air. Lang Hua and the other three seized the opportunity and crawled out of the south gate.
After leaving the botanical garden, the tree vines did not pursue them. The dozens of tree vines at the front just poked out of the door, and then hesitantly led the group back to the greenhouse. Except for the broken membrane roof and fragments of vines, nothing was left at the scene, as if the danger just now was just an illusion.
"They've gone back, do we want to go in again?" Da Zhuang asked blankly.
Zhang Cheng said: "It's better not to take risks. These mutated plants seem to be very territorial and are not something we can deal with now. And it's unclear whether the attack just now was the strongest."
"Isn't he the strongest?" Da Zhuang suddenly felt that his throat was dry and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"It's possible." Zhang Cheng nodded.
"I agree with what this brother said." Lang Hua said, "The most indispensable thing in the end of the world is accidents and changes. If you want to find out more, you must have greater certainty. Otherwise, you will lose your wife and lose money." Break the troops."
"Yes, the top priority is to report the situation here to the military. How to deal with it after that is what the big shots should consider." For some reason, Li Yishan kept silent about the first-class task of escorting Zhang Cheng, and instead emphasized caused this accident.
"Company Commander, there is also...monkey, why are you stepping on me?"
Da Zhuang looked at Shou Monkey in confusion, but the latter looked at him helplessly as if he had eaten a fly. Fortunately, Lang Hua, an outsider, seemed to be distracted and did not notice the flaw in Da Zhuang's words.
Li Yishan introduced without leaving any trace: "Brother Lang, these are the other two brothers of our 215th Regiment - Hou Lijian and Zhang... Hong Nan."
Hong Nan... red man? Isn't this Zhang Cheng's code name in the Science League in his early years? Lang Hua was a little amused for a moment, but he didn't dare to show off his flaws, so he could only cup his hands and nod in agreement.
"Hello everyone, my name is Lang Hua, and I am a local survivor in Shashi."
"Nice to meet you, brother, you are so skilled." The thinner Hou Lijian took off the black gauze on his face and gave Lang Huashu a thumbs up. This man had flat, sharp eyes, and he held the sniper rifle very steadily with one hand.
The so-called Zhang Hongnan was gentle and silent, and only smiled at Lang Hua.
After seeing these familiar and unfamiliar faces, Lang Hua was finally convinced that he was not dreaming. He was inevitably surprised, but after the surprise, he was more frightened.
Appearing here are Li Yishan, Shouhou and Da Zhuang. What is going on? Shouldn't they be participating in training in the Nanqi Mountains now?
Lang Hua suppressed his emotions and asked, "Brother Shan, where is your Anlu Mountain Battalion Commander?"
"Have you ever had a relationship with Lao An?" Li Yishan was a little surprised.
"Yes, that's right." Lang Hua's eyes were confused, "How is he?"
Hearing this, the other party seemed to be a little emotional, and then he sighed: "I couldn't resist, and I turned into a corpse and passed away on the night of Advent."
"How could it be? He is so powerful."
"Yes, that guy is one of the few people I admire. He has good marksmanship and strong skills, but he is too old-fashioned. The night the black mist broke out, Lao An insisted on rescuing the row of recruits on the first floor, and ended up killing himself. Got in..."
At this time, Lang Hua was already standing there, unable to say anything.
Was it because he was too seriously injured that he transformed into a corpse and died early? But how? An Lushan has been the leading high-level ability user in the Southern Qi Legion all his life. He has the ability to evolve "absolute immunity" and is not afraid of any spore toxins or mutated corpse poisons. He is not only the deputy leader of the 215th Regiment, but also Yang Zhenghua’s right-hand man and Lang Hua’s first teacher in shooting courses.
In the memory, Anlushan would awaken the ability "Absolute Immunity" on the night of Advent, and then help Yang Zhenghua repel the black corpses as soon as possible and stabilize the 215th Regiment camp. Later, he was entrusted by the Military Region and the Science and Technology League to come to Shashi and after many twists and turns, he rescued Zhang Cheng, codenamed "Red Man".
Lang Hua didn't understand that Anlushan shouldn't die on Advent Day. In his previous life, Anlushan lived until the first major counterattack in the Ten Years of Catastrophe. It was because of Jiaorong Core's counter-control that he fell on the road to charge...
So what has changed in this life? Was it a special black corpse that suddenly appeared in the barracks, or was he tripped and turned around a second too late, or was it too late to awaken his ability...
Perhaps after Lang Hua was reborn, when he sat by the bed and drank a sip of water, stood up and took a step, the world had quietly changed. The little butterfly flaps its wings again. Which possibility will the hurricane set off send the world to?
"Little brother?" Li Yishan looked at Lang Hua, thinking that he was overly grieved, so he could only pat him on the shoulder and comfort him, "Death is like a light going out, and there is no distinction between young and old on the road to hell. We should take a step for those who have taken a step early. people live well."
Lang Hua shook his head and said: "I'm fine, I just..."
Li Yishan suddenly sighed: "If Lao An is still alive, he might be happy. At least there are old friends like you who remember him. I don't know if something happens to a rough guy like me, will anyone be like this?" miss me."
"Are you happy...?" Lang Hua thought silently in his heart.
In fact, he already knew the answer. In his new life, in this life that was completely different, Anlushan had never met him, so how could he remember this "old friend"? Lang Hua looked at the world and suddenly felt strange and deserted. Maybe he doesn't belong to this world, maybe his world has been destroyed long ago, and all the efforts he has made now are nothing but mirrors and dreams.
Lang Hua's strange behavior caught Zhang Cheng's eyes, but the others didn't notice it.
He had long noticed that Lang Hua was staring at him, but he was not sure what his intentions were. On the other side, as soon as Li Yishan said a few words, Skinny Monkey started making a fuss.
"I, I, I, I will remember it, company commander." Shouhou squeezed over with a smile, "You are very graceful when paying for a treat. I admire you very much, little brother."
Da Zhuang also said in a loud voice: "Company Commander, I will also remember you."
"Very good, Sergeant Hou Lijian, I will make you look outstanding this time when you go back."
"Ah, no, company commander. It's just my two dollars. Are you still thinking about it?"
"The rich have their own way of eating, and the poor have their own way of eating."
"Dazhuang, lend me..."
"My salary is all sent back to my mother."
The sad atmosphere among the laughter has gradually dissipated. The soldiers live a life of licking blood every day. Without this openness, they might have been the first to collapse.
Even in the apocalypse, military personnel still have one of the highest mortality rates. Many of your once-very close friends may turn into corpses in the blink of an eye; many of your close comrades who you greeted during the day may wake up overnight and become bloodthirsty monsters.
And to prevent the necromorphs from killing more people, you have no choice but to shoot, shoot, and shoot again.
After a brief moment of laughter, Li Yishan still couldn't forget the strange situation of Fuhua Botanical Garden. He took the time to ask Lang Hua for details, hoping to get even the slightest clue.
"Brother Lang, you have walked all the way from the north of the Botanical Garden. Have you discovered anything about the accelerated mutation here?"
"Did you find it..." Lang Hua narrowed his eyes and said, "I think the weird thing should be in this lake. But I was attacked just after I entered the water, so I couldn't find out."
Li Yishan pondered: "That means it's still unknown?"
"Yes." Lang Hua nodded, "But I feel there is something under the water."
"That's all, let the people above handle it." Li Yishan glanced at Zhang Cheng standing next to him without leaving a trace, and then said, "The risk factor here is too high, we shouldn't take any more risks."
Slender Monkey and Da Zhuang looked at each other and said in unison: "Yes."
Lang Hua asked at the right time: "Brother Shan, where are you going now?"
"Tianyin Building. The view there is wide and the signal is strong. Maybe we can wait for the helicopter to respond on the top floor."
Lang Hua understood clearly and then asked: "And then go all the way back to Nanqi City?"
"That's right, our reconnaissance mission has been completed, and it's time to go back." Thin Monkey interjected, "Brother Lang Hua, do you want to come with us?"
Da Zhuang also said: "Yes, your skills are so good, you will definitely be reused by the leader."
At this point, Lang Hua declined: "No, I am also coming from the refuge base. Our base is just outside the city at Fengwei Mountain. Haven't you heard of "Langya City Base"? The radio has been broadcasting it recently."
"No." Li Yishan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Our correspondent Chen Liang died, and the satellite equipment was also lost on the way to break through the corpses. Now we come to this commanding heights to try our luck."
"Then why don't you come with me?" Lang Hua advised. "The base is just outside the city, and I'm a local. I can take you out without a map."
"That's great. Brother Lang Hua, you are so old-fashioned and warm-hearted... Monkey, why are you stepping on me again!"
The thin monkey could only grit his teeth and said: "...How can you be so embarrassed to trouble me?" Finally, he gave Da Zhuang a fierce look.
The two people's reactions caught Lang Hua's eyes, making him unable to help but laugh.
He continued to seek Li Yishan's opinion: "Brother Shan, what do you think of this idea? If you don't like it there, you can leave. I, Lang Hua, guarantee that nothing will happen to you."
"Little brother, you and I can still trust you." Li Yishan laughed, "But the brothers are away from home and have missions, so they must be more cautious. No one knows what kind of person the person in charge of the Langya City base is. , Brother, are you right?"
Judging from this meaning, he probably regarded Lang Hua as an ordinary survivor in the refuge base.
"Well, he's probably a good person." Lang Hua was speechless for a moment. "Anyway, there's no harm in going and taking a look. Moreover, the base has recently acquired an Osprey transport plane. It's very convenient for you to use the route back to Nanqi City."
"V-36 'Osprey'?" Thin Monkey's expression was obviously shocked and suspicious.
"Yes. I think as long as you ask for help in the name of the military, he will be willing to help."
"I'm such a good boy." Thin Monkey covered his forehead with his hands and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Is this really true?"
Shouhou never imagined that a small private refuge base on Fengwei Mountain would actually have an osprey costing over 10 million. His first reaction was that Lang Hua was lying, but looking at the other party's expression, it didn't look like he was lying. Unless Lang Hua knows the purpose of their trip and deliberately sets this trap, but this matter is also top secret in the military region, who can intercept the information in advance and want to deal with them?
Lang Hua seemed to be self-defeating, but made Shouhou wary.
Lang Hua had no choice but to explain: "Don't think too much, this osprey came from the right place and was a gift from the Qin family."
"Oh, it's the Tianshui Qin family." Li Yishan frowned.
When Li Yishan first debuted, he had heard a lot about the glorious history of the Tianshui Qin family.
Ordinary people only know the "Qinchuan Group" but don't know its other name - "Border Group". As far as he knows, the Qin family has been running the "Border Group" for generations. More than a hundred years ago, it was mainly engaged in cross-international security business, specializing in serving the national government, business oligarchs and even arms tycoons. During the "New Cold War", they made money from both sides. A lot of oil and water.
Then came the period of "peaceful evolution", the years before the coalition referendum. I heard that the top management of the group was forced into political struggles and the company was liquidated and almost collapsed. The "Border Group" was also controlled by state-owned capital a hundred years ago and was renamed "Qinchuan Group". Later, it mainly provided one-stop services for official oligarchs to transport goods to sensitive areas.
But precisely because of the support of the red regime, the "Qinchuan Group" became the leader in this industry within a few decades. It usually has business in more than 40 countries and regions, with company branches all over the country and overseas, with the smallest A single order costs six million US dollars, and a typical single order costs tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. Both the company's scale and business volume far exceed those of the former "Border Group".
It is said that the Qinchuan Group had thousands of reserve troops at its peak, all of whom were well-trained retired soldiers and policemen. Li Yishan's experience as a mercenary before joining the army allowed him to interact with these people frequently.
But the "Osprey" is not an ordinary aircraft. Is it necessary for the Qin family to make such a big investment in this remote city where birds don't shit? If what Lang Hua said is true and the Langya City aircraft is the latest V-36, then this is a big deal. I heard that the Qin family spent a lot of money last year and only purchased five aircraft.
Thinking of this, Li Yishan said with a sudden look: "Then you city lord is still... quite capable."
"Uh...probably."
Lang Hua's face twitched, and his smile was awkward but polite. Why did Li Yishan say this as if he had climbed onto the high branches of the Qin family?
A few people walked and chatted, heading south along the road outside the botanical garden. During this period, Lang Hua and Li Yishan were mainly talking. Shou Hou and Da Zhuang occasionally interrupted, while Zhang Cheng silently lowered his head and said nothing.
Lang Hua was good at martial arts, and Li Yishan was also a master of swordsmanship. The two chatted happily, and they felt like they had met at such a late age. At the end of this road is the Tianyin Building. Li Yishan never gave up on this goal, and Lang Hua knew it and didn't say much.
"Ho ho——" "Ho uh——" "Tap tap tap." "Kang Dang——"
Suddenly there was a roar, and seven or eight black corpses came around the corner in front of them. Li Yishan, with quick eyes and quick hands, took out his rifle and killed them quickly.
"Da da da."
Several people stopped to listen, and there seemed to be some noise in the distance.
"Skinny Monkey, use the drone to explore the path and see what's going on!"
"receive."
With a "buzz" sound, the four-legged DJI drone flew into the sky, while the thin monkey stared at the display screen in his hand. After a while, Thin Monkey's hand suddenly shook, and his face looked a little pale.
"Company Commander... we are surrounded. There are black corpses in all directions!"
