Wasteland Survival Code

Chapter 497 Train Driver
Qi Lin found a piece of thick rough canvas and a nail gun from the debris pile in the corner of the car, and nailed the canvas to the roof, temporarily blocking the big hole.

Then, Qi Lin walked into the cockpit at the front of the car.

The big man's wife is the woman who asked Qi Lin for a ticket in shelter 367. She heard all the violent fighting in the rear compartment, but she couldn't leave the cab.

This train was rebuilt with an abandoned locomotive, and the diesel engine on the train came from an obsolete Dongfeng Type [-] diesel locomotive.

It can be said that this train is made of a lot of scrap iron. It is a miracle that it can run, not to mention running on the abandoned subway tracks that have been in disrepair for a long time. It's not like taking a train at all, it's more like an off-road vehicle crossing rugged mountains.

Someone must control the train at all times, and accelerate or decelerate when necessary, otherwise, it is likely that it will not drive very far, and accidents such as derailment will occur.

If they derailed in this kind of place, they would basically be dead—the subway tunnels are full of mutant creatures, and this is not an official train passage, so there is no hope of rescue.

It was also for this reason that no matter how fierce the fight in the rear carriage sounded, women did not dare to leave the train and run over to help.

Seeing Qi Lin, who was covered in blood, walked into the cab alone, the woman who was concentrating on controlling the train turned pale with fright, trembling all over, staring at Qi Lin, but couldn't say a word Come.

Qi Lin knew what the woman was thinking, and immediately said: "Don't worry, your man is fine. We have slaughtered that mutant creature. He suffered a little injury, but it is not fatal. I'll come and get the medicine box, by the way." , where is the medicine box?"

Hearing what Qi Lin said, the woman breathed a sigh of relief, and then hastily pointed to the shelf directly above. Over there, a plastic box with a red cross mark was squeezed in the middle of a large pile of sundries.

After getting the medicine box, Qi Lin looked around the cab again. To be honest, this may be the crudest train cab that Qi Lin has ever seen—as early as decades ago, most trains had reached the level of automatic driving. To a certain extent, there are only a few buttons and a lever in the cab for the driver to manually brake in an emergency, except for the instrument panel. The reading will do.

But on the console of this train, there are at least seven or eight joysticks, and a disc similar to the steering wheel of a car. That thing is called a speed dial, also called a power handle, which is used to adjust the traction of the train. , the function is equivalent to the throttle.

When escaping from Shelter No. 187, Qi Lin also drove a train once, but that kind of fully automatic train only needs him to pull the switch. If such a train was parked at the station at that time, then Qi Lin and Song Fluttershy might already be cold.

This kind of antique thing, let alone operating it, even has a series of cumbersome steps to start it.

It seems that this couple can rely on this to make a living because they have their own unique skills.

With the medicine box, Qi Lin went back to the last carriage and opened the medicine box—the contents of the medicine box were complete, and there was even a set of simple surgical instruments, which surprised Qi Lin a little.

"Hold on, I have to cut off your necrotic flesh." Qi Lin said to the big man, took out a pair of tweezers and a pair of scissors from the medicine box, and burned them with a lighter to disinfect them effect.

"En." The big man nodded, and then bit a roll of towel in his mouth.

There are three wounds on the big man's body, one on the shoulder, the outer side of the upper arm, and the face. The first two wounds are relatively shallow, and the one on the face is the most serious. Qi Lin can even see the wound through the blurred flesh and blood. The white teeth exposed in the middle.

With one bite, the monster directly bit through the big man's face.

After the disinfection was completed, the tweezers and scissors danced quickly in Qi Lin's hands. Amidst the scalp-numbing "clicks", Qi Lin cut off the necrotic flesh and tissues on the edge of the wound one after another. .

Qi Lin's speed is already very fast, but this kind of pain is not so easy to bear, especially without anesthetics.

The only thing in the medicine box that could be used as an anesthetic was a [-]ml morphine, but obviously it wasn't used at this time.

After treating the three wounds, the big man was soaked in sweat as if he had been picked up from the water.

The whole person was almost collapsed, and the towel in his mouth was almost crushed.

After removing the necrotic tissue, Qi Lin cleaned the wound with hydrogen peroxide and povidone iodine cotton balls, sprinkled hemostatic powder, and finally put gauze on it and tied it with a bandage.

"It's a pity that you don't have tetanus vaccine or rabies vaccine here, only common broad-spectrum antibiotics, so you'd better pray that these antibiotics will be effective." Qi Lin wiped the big man off after injecting two antibiotics Wiping the sweat off his forehead, he put away the medicine box.

"Brother, thank you. If it weren't for you this time, my wife and I would have died in the hands of this monster." The big man, whose body was half wrapped into rice dumplings by Qi Lin, said gratefully as he reclined on the seat. .

"It's easy to do. Besides, after all, we are grasshoppers on the same boat. If you die, I won't be able to drive the train either." Qi Lin waved his hand with a smile.

This big man gave Qi Lin a good impression. Not only did he provide Qi Lin with a weapon to protect himself at a critical moment, but he also took the initiative to stand up to face such a terrifying monster. Just these two points can explain that this seemingly rough and barbaric The big guy is actually a pretty nice guy.

"By the way, my name is Chen He, brother, what's your name?" The big man asked suddenly.

Chen He?Qi Lin was stunned for a moment, it seemed that decades ago, there seemed to be a well-known Chinese actor with this name.

"My name... um... this..."

Qi Lin pretended to be hesitant, but Chen He realized instantly that the passenger who saved his life seemed to be a "rebel" on the run.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I almost forgot your origin brother, it doesn't matter if you don't need to tell me your name, anyway, from today onwards, I will treat you as my brother. unimportant!"

"Haha, brother is right, the name is not important—" Qi Lin took advantage of the situation and ended up talking, "By the way, Brother Chen He, this is not the first time you have walked this subway tunnel, right? To this kind of monster?"
