After listening to Mu Shisheng's words, Qi Chuan smiled and said, "Senior sister, after hearing what you said, I want to stay here."

Indeed, although modern civilization pays attention to science and technology to rejuvenate the country, only land is the foundation for human beings to settle down and live. In the face of such a devastating disaster, high technology without electricity is just scrap metal, but land can breed food and save human lives.

After another 10 minutes, the car entered the village. Mu Shisheng was more surprised by everything around her than she had imagined. Although the streets were old, there were various shops on both sides, selling fruits and vegetables, sesame seed cakes and steamed buns, and oil. It’s salty, sour and vinegary, and there’s even an arcade full of machines.

Mu Shisheng forgot the last time he saw a game console. He only felt that the apocalypse outside seemed to have no impact on Xile Village. It was like an isolated paradise, calm and peaceful. When he came to the village, he only felt that those The days of fighting zombies seemed like just a nightmare.

But soon, Mu Shisheng noticed something was wrong. Looking at the roads and houses here, it should be an older village. There was not even a car on the street. The most advanced means of transportation was electric tricycles. In a place like this , before the zombies broke out, at most it was self-sufficient and no one would starve to death.

The "Doomsday Ark" is a large heavy-duty armored vehicle that is very rare in the city. When it was driven in the village, no one took a second look at it. The armored vehicle drove past the villagers' eyes. Everyone bought groceries, chatted, scolded their children, and looked at each other. They are like air.

Moreover, it is the end of the world, and there are zombies outside the village that eat people without spitting out their bones.Even if there is a maze made of barbed wire for protection, isn't there any villager worried about whether those who come from outside the village have wounds on their bodies that have been bitten or scratched by zombies?

Is it their simple folk customs, or is there another ulterior secret in the village?

"We have arrived."

The car in front stopped, and the village chief came over and said,

"Xile Village is a small place and there is no hotel. You can stay in the village government building for the time being."

After hearing this, Pan Yang hurriedly said: "Oh, I'm so sorry, it takes up your working place."

"It doesn't matter." The village chief said calmly, "That building has been empty for a long time anyway. There is an electric heater in the house. If you feel cold, you can plug it in and use it."

Tian Xiaofeng slept in the car every day for the past few days. He couldn't straighten his legs. He woke up several times with leg cramps and pain in his sleep.Moreover, I didn’t dare to keep the heater on in the car, so I had to wrap myself in layers of thick clothes. I had to undo several pairs of pants to go to the toilet. When I heard that I finally didn’t have to sleep in the car, I happily thanked and moved. He got up from the bed and walked upstairs.

Seeing that Qi Chuan and Mu Shisheng had no intention of getting out of the car, Pan Yang asked, "Xiaochuan, Miss Mu, why don't you come together?"

Tian Xiaofeng said coldly: "What are they doing when they get out of the car? There is food, drink, beds, and even bathrooms in the car. Isn't it beautiful for them to stay in the car? How can they be as miserable as us?"

The strange and angry look made Qi Chuan frown his eyebrows.He really didn't plan to get out of the car, because he also felt that there was something strange about Xile Village. It seemed to be aloof from the world, but in fact there was a turbulent undercurrent.

"Aren't you going to get out of the car?"

The man with the scar on his face asked coldly.

"No, we are used to living in the car." Qichuan replied, "Brother, I want to ask you something. We walked all the way from City C. When we entered the mountains, we saw that all nearby villages had lost power. Why is there electricity here?"

The scarred man's already fierce face turned gloomy: "Why do you ask this?"

Qi Chuan smiled awkwardly: "It's nothing, just asking casually."

"Old Hei, you scared the guests." A man with narrowed eyes on the side came over with a smile and said, "Xile Village has electricity because we have an independent generator here. As long as the generator is not broken, we can provide electricity for the whole village. powered by."

Now Mu Shisheng was even more puzzled. It was actually able to generate electricity independently. This Xile Village was indeed not simple.

"You clean up first, and you can come to my house for dinner later." The village chief said, "If you ask anyone on the street, they can tell you where my family lives."

Tian Xiaofeng thinks this place is a paradise. Not only does it have electric heating, but it also takes care of the meals!Just as he was about to agree, he heard Mu Shisheng say:

"Thank you very much for your kindness, village chief. We have already caused you a lot of trouble by staying here, so we won't go to your house for dinner. We will rest for one night and we will leave early tomorrow morning."

The village chief's eyelids drooped slightly, covering half of his eyelids, looking dim and unclear. His snow-white beard twitched twice, and he slowly said: "Okay, then you can rest without disturbing me."

Before the car of the village chief and others completely disappeared, Tian Xiaofeng couldn't help but yelled: "Are you crazy, woman?! Why don't you eat the free rice? Do you know how scarce food is now?"

Seeing Tian Xiaofeng rolling up his sleeves and showing signs of taking action, Qi Chuan stepped forward, stood in front of Mu Shisheng, and said coldly: "What are you going to do?"

Tian Xiaofeng had personally seen Qi Chuan pushing a bus with his bare hands and did not dare to shout in front of him, so he could only take a few steps back angrily.

Seeing his look, Mu Shisheng said calmly: "It's precisely because I know that food is in short supply now, so have you ever thought about why the village chief allows you to eat at his house?"

“Because their people are simple and hospitable!”

Mu Shisheng was simply laughed at by Tian Xiaofeng: "Hospitality? Which of your eyes saw hospitality on their faces?"

Pan Yang understood the meaning of her words and asked, "Miss Mu, do you think there is something wrong with the village chief?"

Mu Shisheng replied: "I think the entire Xile Village has a big problem. First of all, even if there is no zombie outbreak in the village, since there is electricity, they must have heard about the seriousness of being bitten by zombies from the news, but they But you don’t have the slightest bit of vigilance against people like us who come from outside the village. Isn’t this suspicious?”

Pan Yang nodded: "It's indeed suspicious."

Mu Shisheng continued: "Even if the villagers here don't know, after being bitten or scratched by a zombie, there will be an incubation period before mutating into a zombie. But the temperature has dropped sharply. As farmers who have relied on the sky for generations, how can we Don’t you think it’s strange? Wouldn’t there be a sense of crisis? After all, once the temperature drops to the critical point, even if there is land, it will be impossible to grow food. Shouldn’t their first thought be to save more food for themselves in case of emergencies? Do you need it?"

Qi Chuan also added: "I just arrived here from the entrance of the village. I took a closer look and found that there is no formal hospital in Xile Village. This is not surprising. The medical level in many villages is limited and can only treat daily colds, fevers, and injuries. , some serious diseases, or conditions that require surgery, must go to the county hospital. And now, the county has long been occupied, and the county hospital has become a zombie paradise, and medicine is a consumable, even if the people in the village have enough There won’t be enough food and medicine, so if they have any brains, they will use any means to get medicine from outsiders, whether by bartering, stealing or robbing.”
