Cultivation till the end of time

Chapter 262 The inside story of the base

Louis and Arthur both had strange looks on their faces when they saw the house they entered.

They were both thinking, wasn't this the place they had been to a few days ago?

Why did the other party bring him here? Could it be that they lived there a few days ago?

Before they could figure it out, Duoduo raised questions.

"Why did you go into the forest? Didn't you say it was dangerous inside?"

Arthur is more eloquent, and he is responsible for answering: "We have no choice. The people at the base have been forcing us to hand over supplies in the past few days.

This place is so big, so what supplies are there, everything that should be there has been looted.

Instead of going into the forest to find supplies, we might as well risk getting out of here. "

Duoduo and the others also thought about the supermarket they went to last time. Everything inside was really cleaned except dust.

Even the place where they live now, including the furniture, is gone. It was as if the devils had entered the village and robbed everything.

Manman also asked curiously: "Why do you still need to hand over supplies when you have already left the base?"

Lewis said angrily: "He is not that bastard Pike, he thinks he is the king here.

Anyone who lives in this area must turn in materials and pay the rental fee. "

Yi Lai continued to ask a lot of questions, "Then what is the difference between living in the base and living outside?"

Arthur replied a little sadly: "At least there is personal freedom outside, but there is no human rights at all in the base.

Anyone who doesn't do what Parker wants will be beaten, scolded, and even eaten directly. "

This time Duoduo asked, "Are you planning to go into the forest to hunt for food and hand it over to the base?"

Louis took a sip and said disdainfully: "Hand over a piece of wool, and we won't give them a penny. We entered the forest this time because we wanted to get out of here."

It was rare for Gungun to speak out, but the truth he told hurt people.

"The forest is very dangerous. If you can't live without it, you might as well stay here."

Lewis suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to Duoduo and the others.

“Bosses, can you tell us a safe route?

I know I did some shit the other day, but we really wanted to get out of here.

As long as you can tell us the route, I can do whatever you want. "

Duoduo and Ling Yun dodged directly to avoid Lewis's kowtow.

They didn't do anything, but they couldn't bear his kowtow.

Everyone is complaining in their hearts: Just apologize, kowtow or something.

Duoduo told the truth, "Well, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but we've been there for so many days and we haven't seen a safe road."

After listening to what Duoduo said, Arthur grasped an important point and asked cautiously: "Didn't you come here from the forest?"

Duoduo knew that he had spilled the beans, so he glanced at Ling Yun and saw that he didn't blame himself, so he continued to explain.

"We came by sea and have never been here before."

Lewis was so surprised that he sat upright, accidentally pulling on the wound, and let out a "hiss, hiss" cry of pain.

Although Arthur was also frightened by their arrival from the sea, he only had a shocked expression on his face, unlike Louis who hurt himself.

Arthur asked in surprise: "Did you not encounter sea monsters at sea?"

Duoduo replied nonchalantly: "Yes, but we are strong and they can't do anything to us."

The corners of Louis and Arthur's mouths were twitching, should they be so Versailles?

Even if it's the truth, don't say it to your face, okay? This makes it difficult for people who cannot travel by sea.

Isn’t it said that Easterners are very humble? Why is this little girl so honest?

Arthur and Louis looked at each other, and they knelt down resolutely and begged them.

Ling Yun and the others dodge once again. They are not rewarded for their efforts. If nothing happens, just kneel down, okay?

They don't want to accept each other's courtesy, as this can easily lead to cause and effect.

Originally, everyone met by chance and helped out out of good intentions, but they were not happy to have cause and effect.

Cultivators believe in the theory of cause and effect. As Duoduo said before, the orphanage did not give Ling Yun and the others any cause, so Ling Yun and the others naturally did not need to do anything for them.

In the same way, Duoduo grew up in an orphanage in his previous life and received their kindness. This is naturally the so-called cause.

That's why Duoduo wants to find the people in the orphanage and help them within his ability to repay this problem.

But now she can't find anyone, so she has to pay for it first.

The great gift of being kneeled down involves the theory of cause and effect, so every time they kneel down, they will dodge in time.

Even though Arthur saw them ducking away, he still insisted on kneeling and begging.

"Please take us two with you and put us down on a safe land. From now on, we can be used as cows or horses."

Gungun complained: "I treat you like a cow and just put you in a random place, so how can you repay your kindness?"

Louis and Arthur were instantly embarrassed. They also spoke smoothly, but they didn't expect to be caught with bad speech.

Ling Yun rarely made an unexpected decision. Everyone looked at him sideways after hearing his words.

"It's not impossible to take you away. I'll ask you a few questions and if you answer them honestly, I can consider taking you with me."

Louis and Arthur nodded in agreement. They were sitting upright in their kneeling postures, but they did not dare to kneel in front of Duoduo and the others for fear of driving them away.

From the other party's reaction just now, we know that they don't like others kneeling to them.

But asking them to get up immediately felt like it was not sincere enough.

In the end, they had no choice but to stop kneeling and worship them, and instead deviated a little and knelt down instead, and made a gesture of please say something.

"Didn't you say there are a lot of Wendigos nearby? Then why haven't we encountered one in the forest these past few days?"

Arthur and Louis said in unison: "No way."

Arthur went on to explain: “Wendigos all came out of the forest back then, and we didn’t know where they came from or how they formed that appearance.

But they were indeed born in the forest, and many people saw them at that time. "

"But we haven't seen them in the forest for so many days."

This time it was Louis who answered: "We don't know this either. We have never gone deep into the forest."

"So do you have a research institute here? Is there any other way to leave?"

Arthur didn't understand why he asked, but he answered honestly.

“There is a research institute, and we don’t know what is being studied in it.

There were so many armed security guards there that not even a fly could fly in.

As for roads, we only know forest and sea routes. "

"So how did this place trade with the outside world before the end of the world? There shouldn't be only one way, right?"

Arthur smiled bitterly and replied: "There are only two roads, the mountain road and the sea road, but the sea road is infested by sea monsters, and the suspension bridge on the mountain road was broken by a meteorite.

Without the suspension bridge, vehicles would not be able to leave here, and you would still have to take the forest road to cross the mountains.

The only safer road at the moment is the forest road. "

Ling Yun continued to ask: "Even if it is like what you said, there should be many survivors here, but without foreign aid, how will you get food and water?"

It was Arthur who answered: "As for water, it is provided by superpowers, and most of the food is hunted by us when we venture to the edge of the forest."

"Are there no other items, or did the food appear suddenly?"

Arthur thought along Ling Yun's train of thought, and he finally understood what Ling Yun wanted to express.

"You mean Pike and the others have other ways to get food and water."

Ling Yun nodded lightly, "Not only that, the materials in the institute should also be transported in from outside.

How else would they do research? Aren't you local residents? Why didn't you notice such an obvious thing? "

Ling Yun was able to discover the problem because they were in the forest and passed a place where it was obvious that there were often people trampling on the road there.

They walked along that road and saw the so-called research institute.

They can't understand English. Either there are 9394 and Duoduo, or Duoduo translates to tell everyone what the English on the house number means.

Arthur touched his nose in embarrassment and told him honestly this time.

"Neither of us are local residents. I passed by here when traveling before the end of the world, and it happened to be the end of the world, so I stayed here.

Louis was a sailor, and a ship happened to be docking at that time. "

This means that what I told them before that I was an Aboriginal was a lie.

Ling Yun also specifically asked Pi Xiu to confirm whether they were lying. It was not until Pi Xiu's voice transmission proved that what they said this time was true, Ling Yun continued to ask.

"None of you have ever suspected that Wendigo might be a product of their research?"

His question stunned Arthur, and he said to himself: "No wonder they found the Wendigo's weakness so quickly and controlled so many Wendigos so quickly."

Lewis also knew the seriousness of the matter, but he didn't know what to say.

Arthur came to his senses and came to a direct conclusion.

"We can't stay in that institute."

But there were only two of them, and they couldn't do much. They could only look at Ling Yun and the others helplessly.

Ling Yun ignored their gazes and said to several disciples: "Have a rest and leave tomorrow."

His reaction was confusing to Arthur and Louis. Did he not want to care about them?

After everyone heard this, they all went to find a place to rest on their own, and no one paid any attention to the two of them.

Only Louis and Arthur were tossing and turning that night, while Ling Yun and the others had a good rest.

The next day, Louis and Arthur appeared in front of everyone with panda eyes.

The two of them were hesitant to speak, but finally they seemed to have made up their minds and walked up to Ling Yun and the others with heroic sacrifice.

Without saying a word, he knelt down again.

They didn't know if they didn't sleep well, so they knelt down again in confusion, but of course they were dodged by everyone again.

Why do these foreigners like to kneel down so much? Duoduo complained about their behavior and ran away faster than a rabbit.

Arthur pleaded: "Please, help the people here.

The survivors in the base live in dire straits every day.

If the institute is not destroyed, there will be more victims. "

Arthur and Louis stayed up last night, just thinking about this matter. The more they thought about it, the more they felt that what Ling Yun said made sense.

Why have they never thought about why monsters like Wendigo appear before?

Maybe this has something to do with zombies. When everyone accepts the existence of zombies, they will naturally soon accept the existence of Wendigo.

But it was very unreasonable when the Wendigo appeared. When it appeared, zombies were ravaging the land.

Then it was logical that the Wendigo appeared to replace them. In fact, thinking about it again, the timing of its appearance was too coincidental.

They all suddenly appear from the forest when there are the most zombies.

Why doesn’t anyone suspect that the research institute is doing these studies?

Arthur probably guessed the reason, because Pike attracted all the attention to him.

So he has been acting, playing a tyrant? No, maybe he was responsible for attracting attention, but his brutality didn't seem to be a show at all.

Then he sent all the people he harmed to the research institute for research. It was really scary to think about it.

He couldn't imagine that from the end of the world to now, those who died in Pike's hands would become more terrifying beings than zombies.

Louis was not as flexible in thinking as Arthur. He just felt that the institute should be destroyed. As for why, he couldn't explain the reason. It was just a feeling.
