The sky has just dawned, and the rising sun has just shed light on the world.
Qing Ning and the boy, who spent the night next door last night, packed their luggage early, hitched their carriage and quietly left the courtyard where the four of them were staying overnight.
Heh, maybe Xiaofu was discovered by the two of them when they were secretly watching their exercise last night. So she was embarrassed and left without saying a word, right?
Apart from that, Zhang Zhe really couldn't think of any other second possibility.
When Zhang Zhe and Xiao Fu packed up their things, got on the carriage and left the courtyard, the sky was completely bright.
The morning breeze, carrying a trace of moisture, caressed the cheeks, giving people an indescribable feeling of gentleness.
Several birds that had woken up early were chirping non-stop on the branches beside the road, bringing a glimmer of life to this otherwise dead morning.
On the carriage, Xiao Fu, who had just devoured her share of compressed biscuits, was already eagerly sharing with Zhang Zhe, who was chewing a piece of compressed biscuits next to her, what she had peeked at last night.
The scene that arrived.
"Brother Zhe, you didn't know when you were asleep last night. In the middle of the night last night, that Qing Ning and the little apprentice brought by her husband had sex together in the next room."
"I'll go! That scene was quite exciting. Brother Zhe, let me tell you, after I heard something wrong with the sound, I went over and lay down in front of the door to take a peek."
"Hey, Brother Zhe, let me tell you. I happened to see Qing Ning at that time..."
Zhang Zhe, who was holding half a piece of compressed biscuit in his hand and a mouthful that he hadn't completely swallowed, looked at Xiao Fu beside him, who was beaming and vividly describing the scenes he saw.
Zhang Zhe's entire body was completely petrified on the carriage.
Oh my god? Can you, a little girl, tell me this?
Alas! Xiao Fu, Xiao Fu, I am really impressed by you!
Are you saying you don’t understand anything? You know everything. Are you saying you understand everything? You are indeed a little naive, which makes people laugh!
Forget it, I'd better listen to what you tell me first, and then I'll educate you properly!
After Xiao Fu, who was sitting next to her and was beaming, finished vividly describing what she saw last night, Zhang Zhe, who was standing next to him, held half a compressed biscuit in his hand and said to Xiao Fu with a very serious expression.
"Xiao Fu, I know you don't treat me, your brother Zhe, as an outsider."
"But how can you tell me this kind of thing? After all, there are differences between men and women. It's not good for you to tell me this kind of thing, right?"
"Besides, from now on, you, a little girl, should try to see as little of this kind of thing as possible. Where do you get such great curiosity? What will you do if someone discovers you?"
As soon as Zhang Zhe finished speaking, Xiao Fu, who was sitting beside her, shook the long whip in her hand and spoke disapprovingly to Zhang Zhe.
"Brother Zhe, you are too rigid and dogmatic."
"When you and I deliver goods at the inn for a long time, you will become accustomed to this kind of thing. Like what happened to Qing Ning last night, it was just a small scene. I have seen bigger ones!"
After saying this, Xiaofu looked at Zhang Zhe beside her, with a serious expression and a calm tone.
"I'm telling you, Brother Zhe, that boy was taken advantage of by Qing Ning."
"Qing Ning's husband is dead. If Qing Ning wants to return to their inn, she can only rely on that boy now. Once she gets the boy, she can return to the inn. Then, she is looking for a more capable man."
"I've seen this kind of thing a lot on the way to deliver goods. In the eyes of a living person, nothing is as important as his own survival. And there are only two possible outcomes for that boy."
After saying that, Xiao Fu turned her head and looked at the wilderness covered with weeds on the side of the road, and continued speaking calmly.
"Either on the way back, he became Qing Ning's scapegoat because of his so-called one-night relationship with Qing Ning."
"Either after returning safely to their inn with Qing Ning, they are decisively abandoned by Qing Ning. There is no third possibility!"
"This kind of thing is no longer a secret that cannot be told in various inns."
While he was talking, a breeze blew by, blowing up the hair that covered Xiao Fu's eyes. Only then did Zhang Zhe, who was sitting aside, realize that Xiao Fu's eyes were so penetrating.
In the afternoon, Zhang Zhe and Xiao Fu, who were driving a carriage, entered the urban area of City L.
At first, there was a dead silence in the city. On the empty but extremely wide road, there was not a single vehicle that was abandoned on the roadside before the end of the world.
Occasionally, a few crows were heard from the buildings on the roadside, as if to warn the two of them for trespassing into this dead city.
Some of the high-rise buildings in the distance are still standing upright. Others are leaning to the left and right. They are obviously tired and standing upright, as if they are teetering and want to fall down and sleep.
I heard from Xiaofu that due to the reduction and depletion of various resources in the seven years since the zombie apocalypse, the military in L City had to recycle and integrate all resources in various jurisdictions.
Various metals, petroleum, batteries and other items have been recycled as early as three years ago.
When she was working at the inn three years ago, the first job she was assigned was to search for cars on the streets and in various neighborhoods of City L with a boy.
Then, horses were used to drag the car to a car dismantling plant planned by the military in L City, where the car was dismantled and parts were selected.
Later, copper and other metals were transported to the Wolf Clan's inn in City H, or to the inn leading to Shenwu City, where these metals were processed and produced into bullets and various swords.
As they went deeper into the city, Zhang Zhe, who had not been back to City L for five years, saw various outposts and firepower points established by the military on nearby high-rise buildings.
Just when Zhang Zhe felt that the density of these firepower points was a bit like a tower defense game he once played, he saw many carriages carrying various supplies in the wide streets, orderly passing through them.
Driving by.
Just as Zhang Zhe was looking at the carriages passing by, feeling a little dizzy, a group of fully armed soldiers riding tall horses galloped past their carriages.
And these carriages and galloping soldiers are all heading towards the north of City L without exception.
Just when Zhang Zhe on the carriage was wondering where these people were going, Xiao Fu, who was sitting beside him, smiled and said to Zhang Zhe.
"Brother Zhe, a railway line to Wushen City is being built in the north of City L. After that railway line is completed and opened to traffic, our post station in City Z may be cancelled."
"Because our Z city is just north of L city."
After hearing Xiao Fu's words, Zhang Zhe immediately looked at Xiao Fu beside him and asked with a suspicious look on his face.
"Xiaofu, I don't understand something."
"You said our City Z is to the north of City L, so why did you take me from City K to City L to deliver goods? Aren't you taking a long way around? Why don't you go directly from City Z..."
Before Zhang Zhe could finish his words, Xiaofu, who was holding a long whip, looked at Zhang Zhe and said with a wry smile.
"Brother Zhe, I know it's a long way to go? But there's nothing we can do about it! Four years ago, the bridge connecting City Z and City L was used by the military to slow down the tide of corpses migrating southward into City L.
It blew up."
"But in the end, the zombies migrating south jumped off the broken bridge and entered City L on time while swimming. And this bombed bridge not only did not slow down the speed of the zombies entering City L, but also allowed us to go around more from now on.
It’s hundreds of miles away.”
"Oh, in the end, they still have to repair the railway line again. Brother Zhe, if you had known that such a day would come, why would those high-ranking military officials have gone there?"
After hearing what Xiao Fu said, Zhang Zhe also felt funny.
Haha, I really don’t know if this idea of blowing up the bridge was the brainchild of someone in the general’s war room named Luo Zitong.
What if just blowing up a bridge can delay the progress of the zombie army, then this zombie apocalypse won't last so long?
Haha... It's fun to blow up a bridge in the end of the world, but it's a crematorium to build a bridge in the end of the world. I think this bridge should be built by those smart people who only know how to point fingers in the war room all day long!
Just as Zhang Zhe was thinking this, a cavalry unit consisting of dozens of black armor guards came towards him from the street ahead.
When this large group of cavalry, each riding a tall black horse, passed by the carriage driven by Zhang Zhe, Zhang Zhe discovered that there was a female soldier in black armor in front of the pair of cavalry units.
, actually brought along a boy who was only five or six years old and was wearing a small camouflage military uniform.
The female soldier should be around 21 or 22 years old. She still has some childishness on her cheeks with a little baby fat. Her appearance is indeed very iconic, but her pink and tender face is lifeless.
There is no expression.
To put it nicely, he has a cold temperament.
But to put it harshly, it’s as if everyone owes this girl millions!
To be honest, Zhang Zhe really likes looking at girls!
Especially those girls who are beautiful, cute, and have great figures are deeply loved by him.
Zhang Zhe doesn't look at girls for any other reason, just because looking at girls makes him feel very happy!
But although the female soldier in front of him had an extremely iconic appearance, Zhang Zhe was not in a happy mood at all.
In a word, he doesn't like this kind of girl with aloof temperament.
Alas, beautiful skins are all the same, interesting souls are the only ones!
Looking at this girl is not as interesting as looking at Xiao Fu next to her!
Just when Zhang Zhe withdrew his gaze and was about to look at Xiao Fu who was looking at the cavalry with an envious expression next to him, Zhang Zhe discovered.
The female soldier sitting on the horse with a boy in front of her was staring at her intently.
I'll go! Girl, do you know me? Is this how you see me?
Although everyone knows that I am handsome, bro, I am the one you will never get!
Just as Zhang Zhe was looking at the female soldier and thinking this, the female soldier took the boy in front of her and rode a black horse to the carriage.
At this moment, the female soldier looked at Zhang Zhe on the carriage and shook her head slightly, with a look of disappointment in her eyes.
Then, the female soldier turned to look ahead and drove the black horse directly past the carriage.
