The three of them were silent all the way, including when they encountered a monster and were trying to avoid it. No one said a word. When they raised their hands and pointed, the others understood that this meant they needed to avoid it again.
Walking and hiding himself all the way, my legs were so tired and my feet were numb. When I got back to the chariot, Ma Tao sat down on the driver's seat and didn't want to move. He looked back at the two sisters. The two girls were more direct. They both squeezed into the tank's small rest bed and fell asleep.
"I fell asleep so quickly..."
Ma Tao muttered in a low voice and smiled self-deprecatingly, "A woman is a woman, and this physical work depends on the men..."
After saying that, he raised his hand and slapped the start button with a bang, and the engine started. He looked back again and saw that the two sisters of the Su family still didn't wake up. It seemed that they were really tired from walking.
Ma Tao straightened up and fastened his seat belt to wake up the C device. He looked outside the screen display, gripped the steering wheel and kicked the accelerator. The chariot spun half a circle on the spot. Then, according to the drawing given by Uncle Guang, he headed north at full speed. Jin quickly rushed out of the forest.
I came out of the hidden village in the morning and walked for several hours. The forest was densely populated with tall trees, and I didn’t know the time. Now I came out and found that the sun had already started to set, and the two girls behind me were still sleeping soundly.
Ma Tao yawned constantly while driving the chariot. In order to prevent himself from falling asleep, he could only keep talking to the C device. Firstly, he had someone to talk to to refresh himself. Secondly, he wanted to know more about the structure of the chariot. And the rules of this world, after all, Ma Tao, a time traveler, really came to this world not long ago, and it was pure luck to reach where he is today.
"01, can the C device drive the tank automatically?" Ma Tao yawned again and asked one sentence at a time.
"It is indeed possible, but it requires a more advanced C device, which is not available for this model." 01 answered Ma Tao's question.
"Then if I have the opportunity to change to a better C device, will you disappear?" Computers are better, and they will never be tired or sleepy. It's just that the replacement of the C device just mentioned made Ma Tao have a whim and asked A meaningful question.
"This is normal. You don't need to be sad for me. This is the fate of C devices. The better the C device's reaction ability, the more perfect its operation ability. The strongest one can even drive a tank independently to fight and control everything in the car. "Equipment" 01 Female Idea also made a small joke with Ma Tao. This thing also has a certain logical thinking ability.
"C device operates the chariot independently?" Ma Tao suddenly became energetic and seemed to have thought of something, but what was it? Suddenly, an idea flashed through my mind, and I knew why.
"01! Will a chariot driven by C device alone be considered a monster when it appears in the wild?" Ma Tao's mind kept jumping. There are many monsters transformed by Noah that are all mechanical. Will their code of conduct be similar to C's? If the system control of the device is really like that, then the risk of being controlled by people who own tanks and powerful C devices is particularly great.
"Yes, Noah controls the world's creations by modifying the C device's instructions and obeying the system. Noah's behavior is just like the human brain. The numerous creations are nerve sources throughout the body. The instructions issued by the brain are all over the body. must obey”
01 gave an answer that Ma Tao least wanted to hear, but then he thought about it. It might not be that simple to directly control other people's tanks. If that were the case, there would be no legendary hunters like Wolf and Lan in this world. , which shows that Noah should need to use other object media if he wants to control the C device in other people's tanks.
To put it simply, just like a virus, flies cannot bite seamless eggs. In order to spread, they must be infected first. In this way, Ma Tao feels more at ease. He does not want to fight with a particularly awesome tank that he has worked so hard to build. When he was abandoned by the chariot, the chariot ran away on its own in a blink of an eye.
"Then what if..."
What else was Ma Tao asking? A rhythmic sound of three consecutive gunshots interrupted what Ma Tao was going to say next.
"Monster attacked, two pieces of armor were lost." 01 reported the loss of the tank.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Because the chariot was under attack, Ma Tao stepped on the brakes suddenly, which knocked the two sleeping women behind the car to the ground. Maybe it was because they were sleeping in a hurry. , because he could not lie down firmly, Su Lanxi rubbed his sleepy eyes with one hand and his little butt with the other and sat up and asked.
"It's that damn bird again!!" Ma Tao looked at the mechanical rifle bird that was about the same size as an owl and hovering on the chariot displayed on the screen, and his teeth itched with hatred.
"What the hell, isn't it just a flying machine? What's the big deal? I'll kill it!"
Su Lanyu was also thrown to the ground by Ma Tao's brake, but she did not actually fall. After all, she had a certain foundation in martial arts. As soon as she lost her center of gravity, she reached out and grabbed the armrest of the chariot to prevent herself from falling to the ground. on the ground.
"You don't know!"
Ma Tao really understood this rifle bird very well. He turned around and explained to the two girls.
"When I went to Happy Forest, I was chased by this thing for a whole day. The main gun couldn't be aimed, and the secondary gun couldn't hit. If I hadn't escaped into the woods, this little beast would have killed me."
"That's you stupid!"
As soon as Su Lanyu finished speaking, her sister Su Lanxi covered her mouth and burst into laughter.
"Use a cannon to kill birds? Why don't you use a cannon to kill mosquitoes?"
After Su Lanyu finished speaking with a mocking voice, she ignored Ma Tao's face that turned the color of pig liver because of her words. She took out a net from the tool box of the tank, held it in her hand, looked at it, opened the tank door and went out. After a while, the rifle bird knocked off two more pieces of armor.
"What did she go to do?"
Ma Tao didn't know why, and looked confused when he saw Su Lanyu getting out of the chariot with a broken net without even a gun.
"Idiot, have you ever heard of bird traps?"
Su Lanxi chuckled. As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Tao slapped his head hard, sighing that he was confused by the bad bird. He watched Su Lanyu displayed on the screen and threw it at the swooping rifle bird. He took out the net in his hand and entangled the annoying bird monster on the ground with one blow. Without a single shot, Ma Tao was completely convinced.
After putting away the 5G in the rifle bird's head, Su Lanyu arrogantly raised her little finger to Ma Tao in the tank to express her contempt for him, but this time Ma Tao accepted it readily. There was no way, his IQ was a flaw. We have to admit that our brains are not as flexible as others. Su Lanyu returned to the tank with a clang and put the 5G on Ma Tao's dashboard. He smiled proudly at Ma Tao. This is showing off. What else can Ma Tao say? He put his hands together. , slapped her hands three times to show her admiration.
The chariot set sail again and continued to move north. Not long after walking this time, about tens of kilometers, the grassland disappeared and was replaced by small patches of swampland. Later, it was directly connected to the Together, the whole is a large swamp.
The sky has darkened, the surrounding scenery has become more and more blurred, and the visibility is getting lower and lower. Ma Tao has to turn on the tactical searchlight and move along the edge of the swamp. Finally, when the night completely arrives, Ma Tao will fight The car stopped by a small forest near the swamp, turned off the searchlight, and the surrounding area immediately became pitch black.
The chariot can no longer move forward. It is night in such terrain, and the reduced visibility is fatal. There are less and less solid ground. If one accidentally sinks the heavy chariot into the swamp, the consequences are unimaginable. , Ma Tao got out of the car and took a look. The soil around the grove was very strong and could withstand being crushed by a chariot. This made him completely relieved. At least it ensured that he would not be buried in the soil when he woke up the next day. inside.
"Are you just going to spend the night here?" Su Lanyu also came down, looked around the chariot, and asked, "Do we need to set up a tent?"
"It's not necessary," Ma Tao said, looking at the darkness in the distance and then at the mud not far away from him that was constantly emitting rancid bubbles.
"But you are a man?" Su Lanyu showed a puzzled expression, "How can you sleep in the chariot with us?"
Ma Tao turned around and looked at her, seeing the smile on her face, it was obvious that he wanted to see Ma Tao deflate. Ma Tao knew it well, "It seems that someone didn't care at all that there was a man in the car during the day. He was sleeping soundly. That sleeping posture...oh...that hahahazi..."
"Go away!! How dare you say that!!" Su Lanyu became angry when Ma Tao exposed her ugly behavior, and started to show her teeth and claws like a little female leopard.
"I won't tell, I won't tell. I'll go find our family, Lan Xi..." Ma Tao laughed, feeling very proud of himself. He wanted to see others suffer, but he himself suffered. It was a rare opportunity.
"Hey!" As soon as Ma Tao climbed onto the chariot, he was stopped by Su Lanyu below.
"What's the matter?" Ma Tao turned around and asked
"Have a good rest. We have to drive tomorrow. I'll keep vigil tonight..." Su Lanyu returned to the scene, but she also understood the importance of Ma Tao. Ever since she drove the car into a tree fork and got lost, she knew this all her life. There is no connection with the chariot.
Ma Tao looked at her, nodded, said nothing, turned around and got into the chariot. At this moment, they finally had a tacit understanding like a team of teammates that needed no words.
In the tank, Su Lanxi had already packed up the simple single bed in the rest cabin, and placed water, biscuits and sausages on the dining table, just like a virtuous wife. Of course, these They were all prepared by Ma Tao before.
"You can stand in for your sister later. You don't have to go out. Just observe in the chariot. I'll turn the screen into night vision mode later." Ma Tao said while stuffing food into his mouth, while Su Lanxi sat on the horse. Tao watched him eat from across the way, listening carefully to what he said, nodding when he understood, and shaking his head when he didn't understand.
"What's wrong with you? Why don't you speak?" Ma Tao held the food in his mouth and found it difficult to swallow. He took the water on the table and took a sip. He felt much better and found that Su Lanxi in front of him just looked at him. The squeaking sound was very strange.
"It's okay. My sister told me to have a rest after eating. I don't want to disturb your rest." Su Lanxi smiled slightly and reached out to take off the cookie crumbs from the corner of Ma Tao's mouth. "You can rest quickly. You are the only one here who can drive!"
Ma Tao nodded, knowing that what they said was right. In this world, there is no possibility of a car accident, because there is no car that can hit you, but there are still problems with the car overturning or falling into a ditch due to mistakes. , so Ma Tao didn't waste any time, turned on the night vision equipment for them, fell directly on the small bed, and went to see Duke Zhou not long after.
The next day, Ma Tao was woken up by Su Lanxi. When he opened his eyes, he saw Su Lanxi sitting in front of his bed with his head lying on his body. He was sleeping soundly. When Ma Tao moved, he was lying on his body. Su Lanxi was awakened, opened her big sleepy eyes and looked at Ma Tao.
"You're awake?" Su Lanxi sat up and straightened his clothes and messy hair.
"Lie down all night? Why didn't you wake me up so that you could have some rest?" Ma Tao quickly got up and asked Su Lanxi to lie on the bed.
"I'm fine, it's fine, I'm not sleepy anymore." Su Lanxi resisted for a while. This girl was still wearing the dress that Ma Tao bought for her before. After all the trouble, Ma Tao didn't dare to give in to her anymore. With a straight face, he reached out and carried Su Lanxi, who weighed only a few kilograms, to the bed. Su Lanxi was suddenly picked up. After the initial panic, he didn't move anymore. He looked up and saw that Ma Tao was indeed angry. He couldn't shirk it, so he left. Pushed off.
"Where is your sister? Is she still outside?" Ma Tao took a sip from the water glass on the table. After asking, he saw Su Lanxi nodded, said to have a good rest and climbed out of the chariot.
"Hey! Get in the car and rest, get ready to go!" Ma Tao opened the tank door. It was already morning outside. After looking around, he found Su Lanyu standing about ten meters away, staring at a tree in a daze and shouting for her to go.
"Look at this first!" Although Su Lanyu turned around, he did not come over.
"What's going on?" When Ma Tao saw her serious expression, which didn't look like she was joking, he jumped off the chariot and came to her side.
"Look!" Su Lanyu pointed under the tree. Ma Tao looked where she pointed and saw a highly decomposed corpse immersed in the swamp only three to five meters away from them. The clothes he was wearing were already gone. It was so soaked in silt that the color could no longer be seen. Because of the rot, there were many flies flying around the body. The important point was that the body was carrying a backpack of quite good quality, and it was bulging. It should be there. Something less.
"How did you find out?" Ma Tao turned around and asked Su Lanyu beside him.
"I can always smell a putrid smell nearby. It's definitely not the swamp smell. I've been looking for it all night, and I only found it at dawn." Su Lanyu said, staring at the backpack of the corpse.
"He probably got stuck here alone. It seems like the swamp here isn't very deep, so he didn't sink completely into the mud, and there was still a section exposed. It's a pity that the person who got stuck in can't get out on his own. , He was either suffocated by the swamp's backlog, or starved to death or thirsty." Ma Tao analyzed it and came up with several possibilities.
"I don't care how he died, he won't survive anyway. What I care about is his backpack." Su Lanyu said bluntly, looking at the backpack without blinking, and he was almost fascinated by the contents of the bag. .
"Will you cry when you find everything is stones when you pull it out?" Ma Tao turned to look at her and grinned.
"Crow's Mouth, did you brush your teeth this morning?" Su Lanyu glared at him, which made Ma Tao quickly cover his mouth. It was true that he didn't brush his teeth.
"What are you doing standing there, looking for something! Do you want me to go fish out the corpses in the stinking mud?" Su Lanyu smacked Ma Tao hard, and after saying this with hatred, Ma Tao ran away in a hurry. Qi said, "I don't know how to show mercy at all... Why did my sister find such a fool..."
After working for half an hour, the two finally pulled the backpack and the body over. Enduring the strong rotting smell, Ma Tao took off the backpack from the body, found a place and buried the body. When I returned to the chariot, I saw Su Lanyu, who was wearing a leather jacket and leather trousers, dancing happily. She seemed to be intoxicated in her own world. To be honest, if it weren't for her very hot figure, with bulging front and back That kind of dance can be described as an internship. It really fits the old saying, a white body can cover up all ugliness, but a figure can make everything possible.
"What's so happy inside?" Ma Tao came to the intoxicated Su Lanyu, squatted down, and took some water to wash his hands.
"La la, of course it's money." Seeing Ma Tao come back, Su Lanyu put on a very noble expression like "I am a princess and I am a eldest lady" and took out a G and placed it next to Ma Tao.
"Tch! What did I think? You haven't seen the money?" Ma Tao smiled while washing his hands.
"I've never seen it before!" Su Lanxi was still dancing there, this time she was jumping on one leg imitating the steps of the swan dance.
"I'm sick," Ma Tao muttered, and suddenly felt something was wrong. He suddenly turned around and asked, "How much money is there?"
"1950G" Su Lanyu was still dancing selflessly. She answered very calmly, without even looking at Ma Tao, and concentrated on dancing her own swan dance.
"How much!!!!" Ma Tao was startled, his eyes popped out when he stopped moving his hands.
"1950G" As if it had nothing to do with her, Su Lanyu said it again, and then with a crash, all the G's in the backpack fell to the ground, which was very visually shocking.
"I'll go..." Ma Tao stood up and looked at Su Lanyu pouring out the G on the floor. How many things can this buy? There are so many, and then asked, "How do you know so accurately?"
"That's what it says!" Su Lanyu pointed at the printed words on the backpack. If she hadn't said that Ma Tao really hadn't seen it, all she could see was a line of small words printed inside the backpack, resource gold 1950G. Such backpacks are used by some large chambers of commerce. It's a one-time fee for shipping, one package per transaction, simple and convenient, but now it's cheaper for Ma Tao and the others.
"You come and clean it up. There is some strange smell. You can just throw it away." Su Lanyu finally stopped dancing her homemade swan dance, gave Ma Tao a word, and turned back to the chariot.
Are you kidding me? Why don't you just leave it? Who can part with more than 1,900 G? How rich is that? However, because these G’s have been soaked with the highly decomposed corpse for a long time, it is natural for them to smell a little bit. But in the bad smell, he also has money. Who cares about the smell of money? Ma Tao doesn’t care anyway, he is used to being poor. How can one be too picky? Ma Tao worked extremely hard on this job. He took some water and started scrubbing the 1950G.
