Su Mi didn't know what Qin Hao was talking about, but she believed that there must be danger where there are rivers. Therefore, when Cai Xiaobo said that there was a small river between his home and the hospital, she decided not to take a long way around. Go to the location of his community.
On the contrary, although the Yang Lin family passed by the seafood market, in Su Mi's view, the current temperature in Linjiang City is stable between minus one degree to minus two degrees, and even if the ground freezes, it will not be very thick.
Furthermore, it can be analyzed from Qin Hao's words that the artificial lake is already connected to the Blue Star River Basin, and it is in the middle and upper reaches of the Blue Star River Basin. Therefore, even if the temperature here rises and the ice melts, it will not There is widespread flooding.
If there is something like an octopus monster, it will not have the advantage of water.
If the possible danger of aquatic life invasion is excluded, this place is actually very suitable for people to live for a long time.
The group decided to take a detour to the north from the location next to the Hehuadi Seafood Market, and climbed from the elevated road next to the North Bus Station to the other side of the river.
The two problems that originally surrounded everyone were that there might be a danger of biological invasion when passing through the Hehuadi Seafood Market. Another problem is when crossing the elevated highway.
When they came to the Hehuadi Seafood Market, they found that there was nothing alive inside and outside the seafood market except for piles of rotten seafood and half-melted dirty ice water on the floor.
"Let's go, there shouldn't be any danger here." Qin Hao said at the front of the team, and then pulled Tiantian to leave the seafood market first.
Cai Xiaobo and Yang Linyi followed closely behind.
Chen Jin is in the middle, walking side by side with Ma Dexiang.
Ma Dexiang didn't know if it was because of nervousness, but he kept his mouth shut throughout the whole process.
Su Mi and Jiu walked at the back, and the other ten soldiers and Wu Lei surrounded Lu Wenli in the center, which was also convenient for protecting his safety.
Apart from traces of yellowing and moldy scale below the 8th floor of the houses on both sides, the houses in Linjiang City are still very solid.
But the strange thing is that there is no sound of anyone near the Hehuadi Seafood Market.
Among the 20 people in the team, Su Mi and Jiu have the sharpest senses. Maybe Jiu's five senses are even better than Su Mi's.
"It's strange, why is there no one around here?"
Even Chen Jin and the others at the front thought this phenomenon was very strange.
"Do you think it's weird?" It was Lu Wenli who spoke.
"According to common sense, it has been so long since the end of the natural disaster. If there are no people here, then something must have happened before that caused people to evacuate. There must be some casualties. But except for the smell of fish, there is nothing else here. No."
Su Mi also felt a little strange, at least she didn't smell any strange smell, such as the rancid smell of a soaked corpse, not at all.
Not only that, as soon as the group walked out of the Hehuadi Seafood Market area, even the sound they made when they stepped on the mixture of water on the ground and incompletely melted ice and water disappeared.
Because at this time, the ground turned out to be surprisingly clean, not even water stained, and extremely dry.
Jiu was walking when he suddenly squatted on the ground, his nose twitching.
Su Mi also stopped and looked at him, "What's wrong?"
Jiu stood up, pointed to a little bit of white crystal powder on the ground that was barely noticeable, and said, "This thing was left out when I grilled fish last time. It's salty."
Su Mi paused, squatted down, took a small handful and pinched it on her fingertips.
After the crystals melted on her fingertips, they had a astringent, alkaline texture.
He brought his fingertips to his nose and smelled it. It was colorless and odorless, but it was indeed salt.
This guy Jiu can judge this thing just by its smell. His sense of smell is really much better than his own.
"It's really salt."
"Everyone, please be careful. The ice on the ground must have been removed by someone regularly spreading salt, that's why it's so clean here."
The team did not stop. After knowing that there were human traces here, they became more cautious when marching.
From time to time Xiaobai would run to the front of the team, and from time to time he would run further away from the team, marking his scent in different places.
Su Mi deliberately didn't let it run away too far.
If there are people in this place, it is not safe for Xiaobai to go too far.
They still don't know the specific situation in Linjiang City, but based on experience, Su Mi feels that even if there are people, they must be short of food and clothing.
The more people there are, the more food is lacking.
"It will take more than an hour to get to the elevated highway from here to the North Bus Station. Everyone should be vigilant."
Turn left at the end of Beiyuan Road outside the Hehuadi Seafood Market. It was originally a scenic bridge. When everyone reached the intersection, they suddenly heard Xiaobai quickly rushing to the bridge and yelling frantically towards the other side of the road.
"Woof woof woof!"
"Woof woof woof!"
Everyone was surprised but at the same time the weapon was already in their hands.
Across the road across the bridge, another dog barked.
The cry was very arrogant, and seemed to be deliberately provoking Xiaobai's majesty.
"Xiaobai, come back."
Xiao Bai wanted to rush over and take down the puppy that was barking at him, but Su Mi's yell calmed him down quickly.
"Master, it's provoking me."
In the spiritual link, Xiaobai complained to Su Mi unwillingly.
As it was called back by Su Mi, the dog's barking became more and more furious.
It really wants to rush over and tear the dog that provokes it into pieces.
Qin Hao stopped at the front.
Tiantian pulled Qin Hao's hand.
"Dad, there is a sound over there on Yueyue River Street."
"Yuehe Street?" Except for the two locals in Linjiang City and Qin Hao and Tiantian, no one else has ever been here.
Cai Xiaobo explained: "Brother Chen, Miss Su, there is a door over there. Before the end of the world, there was an ancient town scenic spot called Yuehe Street. That door was a small gate in the scenic spot."
"Should we go in and check it out? If anyone is there, we can also ask about the situation in Linjiang City." Chen Jin looked at the door over there and could vaguely see a bird with long yellow fur inside. dog.
Even Chen Jin could see it and Su Mi also saw it.
It was a golden retriever, one of the working dog breeds.
It has been several months since the end of the world. If the hair of a golden retriever can be so soft and not too dirty, it must have been carefully taken care of by someone.
"Captain Qin, shall we go?"
"The goose still thinks it's better not to go. In this world today, who knows whether those people are good or bad? The geese have stopped shooting again. If there are too many of them, what will happen if they start a fight?"
"Fuck them! So what if there are more people? It's not like we can't defeat them!"
Qin Hao was still thinking, Tiantian was too young to have a say. The dozen or so warriors in the team wanted to explore the bottom first, and if that didn't work, they would start a fight.
After all, all hidden dangers in the city are within the detection range of their vanguard team.
But there are still sane people on the team.
