Ancient Invasion [End Times]

120th Nine Days After the Invasion · "There are no infected people? You will know at night."

The person who spoke was covered with a layer of cloth, and also wore a dust mask. He looked fully armed, and no one could recognize who he was.

The man took off the gauze and eyepatch covering his face, revealing a face with a scar across his right eye, the whole right eye was gray, looking at Cheng Sheng motionlessly.

Cheng Sheng felt that this face was familiar, and he should have seen it somewhere, but he didn't have much memory.

"Dr. Cheng Sheng, do you still remember me?" the man said.

Cheng Sheng frowned slightly, but Lin Qian suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Are you in Lu Qi's team?!"

When Cheng Sheng heard it, he immediately remembered.

At the beginning, seven people in Lu Qi's team withdrew. At that time, he asked Lu Qi to take away the minimum survival supply and demand for ten days for those seven people.

At that time, he reminded Lu Qi to take off the weapons on the seven people to avoid hidden dangers.

It's just that Lu Qi considered this moment, and without any weapons, these people might not be able to go very far after leaving the team, so he finally let the seven people leave with their weapons.

Cheng Sheng didn't expect to meet these people one day, but seeing the appearance of the leading man, it was obvious that this journey was quite difficult and dangerous.

"Yes, I am." The man looked at Lin Qian and nodded, "My name is Chen Nan."

Lin Qian had a good impression of this man, and after listening to Lu Qi's explanation, it was quite miserable. Among the three brothers, the eldest died in the capital and was concealed by the base, while the third died at the mouth of a giant python. .

Chen Nan glanced at Cheng Sheng's team and said, "We are searching for survivors around here every day. We rushed over after seeing your car light. I didn't expect such a coincidence to be an acquaintance."

He said, "I'll take you back to the station first."

Lin Qian was puzzled: "What station?"

"Survivor station."

Lin Qian was startled.

"There are many anti-infected teams organized by local guards and public security functional departments here. We finally got together and cleared a living area that can accommodate thousands of people." Chen Nan walked towards the collection card, "We put the There, it's called the Survivor Station."

The four trucks and Duan Yi's car were all stuck in the yellow sand. Chen Nan tried to spin the wheels to break free, but it didn't get any better after several attempts.

But that off-road car got out of the yellow sand at some unknown time, and when the accelerator was stepped on, the dust and sand swelled straight to the back.

Chen Nan leaned out the window and asked Xu Ying in the cab how she got out.

Xu Ying raised her hand and pointed to the front of Chen Nan's car.

Chen Nan looked over and saw a man standing in front of the car, he looked puzzled: "Team Duan?"

Duan Yi is standing in front of his car, what are you doing?

Before he could react, he felt the truck under his body suddenly leaned up, pressing against the back of the seat, so startled that he subconsciously grabbed the roof rail.

With a lift and a pull, Duan Yi directly pulled Chen Nan's collection card out of the yellow sand.

After the collection card landed, Chen Nan still hadn't recovered.

Seeing this, Xu Ying laughed and said, "That's how it came out."

Chen Nan: "..."

The other three trucks also experienced the feeling of being lifted and pulled out of the pile of yellow sand.

One of them laughed and said, "Next time we come out, we will have one more powerful player in the team. How convenient it is."

"It's easy to say, the only one who awakened the brown bear is still locked up." Another person pouted.

Chen Nan patted the car door, glanced at the two chatting, and said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense, we're going back to the station. Team Duan, Dr. Cheng Sheng, follow up."

Xu Ying responded.

Four trucks plus one off-road vehicle drove on the boundless Gobi Desert, rolling up a tail of yellow sand.

The vision on the Gobi is still poor, but it has improved a lot compared to the previous one.

As Duan Yi said, the sandstorm formed so suddenly and disappeared so quickly that people couldn't figure it out.

Just looking at the moving black wind wall before made people feel horrified. I don’t know when it dissipated. Now there is only a mess that has been swept away. Small sand dunes have been piled up by the wind and sand. Everywhere you can see, They all seem to be dyed with colorful colors, which has a somewhat fantasy flavor.

Dust particles are of different sizes and thicknesses, and the refraction ability of sunlight is also different. Therefore, the places passing by in the eyes of everyone will be a colorful space.

Four trucks drove side by side at the front, and they gradually moved away from the road, heading deep into the Gobi.

"How do they determine the direction? I look the same everywhere in the Gobi Desert..." Du Nanrong murmured.

Lin Qian laughed and said, "They're not us, and they don't even have a guide. Look at their collection trucks, it's obviously a collection truck for transportation, maybe it's a cargo truck that specializes in this line, for sure There is navigation or something."

Du Nanrong was embarrassed when he heard the words, and was amused by himself: "Yes, it makes sense."

"They have antennas on the roof, which can enhance the signal." Duan Yi pointed to the front, and said, "From what Chen Nan said just now, these people should come out to search the nearby area every day or every once in a while. Survivors, their equipment will not be too bad."

Xu Ying nodded in agreement, and she said with emotion: "But I didn't expect that the few people who shouted to quit at the beginning finally found a survivor camp. I thought they would find a small town and hide until this wave broke out. past."

Lin Qian said: "Don't underestimate them, they are soldiers after all. Even if they lose confidence in the base, they will not ignore the life and death of civilians."

Xu Ying nodded.

She sighed softly, "The base..."

She didn't go on, and didn't know what to say. She always had hope, thinking that everything would be over soon when she arrived at the base, but now the base is gone, and the large force is floating on a certain "big ship" at sea. The specific location Unknown, this made her faintly hopeless.

Perhaps the only good news that can cheer up is that Chen Nan and the others have built a survivor station.

The off-road followed four trucks, and finally approached the destination before nightfall.

"Almost there." Cheng Sheng said suddenly.

Lin Qian looked around blankly, still seeing the endless neighbors, without navigation, he didn't even know where they were now.

He couldn't help asking: "It's almost here? How did the doctor know?"

Cheng Sheng looked out the window: "There are more and more desert plants, which means that there should be a water source ahead. The survivor station must be built near a guaranteed water source, and we won't be too far away."

Lin Qian let out an "ah", that's why.

Sure enough, not long after driving, an oasis appeared in front of them.

Lin Qian sat up slightly, excited: "Doctor! Really! Is this an oasis? I'm not hallucinating!"

"No." Cheng Sheng smiled slightly.

This is an oasis in the very center of the desert, surrounded by Gobi, but this one is an oasis surrounded by aquatic plants and lakes. It has a huge area, about the size of a stadium with tens of thousands of people.

When you get closer, you can see a low-rise bungalow, surrounded by clumps of camel thorns, densely packed, like a low fence wall.

Camel thorn, as the name suggests, is the pasture that camels love to eat. The flowers of camel thorn have high nutritional value, and they are dried into hay as feed. Similarly, just like its name, its inflorescence shaft becomes hard and sharp thorns. The leaves are still long.

Clumps of camel thorns were interlaced and densely growing together, and the sharp thorns protruded outwards, and no one wanted to fall into them.

A group of people parked the car outside the camel thorn fence, got out of the car and walked in.

"We use camel thorns as the first line of defense," Chen Nan said.

When they walked in, they saw people coming in and out of the low bungalow, some were cooking fires, some were setting up stalls to exchange goods, and there were children drinking the blood of a freshly killed beast.

Cheng Sheng felt that they were in a somewhat backward town and village, where there were no viruses or infected people.

When those people saw Chen Nan and the others coming back, they all waved and said hello.

"Did we find so many survivors this time?"

"Chen Nan, did you encounter a black storm when you went out? We saw it suddenly appear from a long distance, and it disappeared after a while."

"Seeing that they brought so many people back this time, they must have missed them. The black storm is a man-eating person. If we do, how can we come back!"

Chen Nan nodded and greeted a few familiar people on the side of the road, and then heard the warm greetings from the local people around.

"How many survivors did you find?" Duan Yi asked.

"There are only a few hundred." Chen Nan said.

He signaled Duan Yi and the others to follow him, and entered a bungalow.

"This was originally the place where the local nomads always rested on the way." Chen Nan said.

He unfolded a map and circled several key locations with a pen on it. He pointed to one of the points and said, "We were originally here, and Cuozhuo is the largest town here. We found that the road near you was reversed." orientation position."

"The plague of infected people broke out there." Chen Nan said, "We finally escaped from Cuozhuo Town with others, and fled all the way here."

"The plague of infected people?" The first time Lin Qian heard this word, he was taken aback.

Chen Nan glanced at them in surprise: "You don't know? Don't you listen to the radio? Both Dijing and Lin are issuing warnings about the plague of infected people."

He said, turned on the radio, searched the channel, and soon heard a voice coming from inside——

"This is the 023 radio channel of the Imperial Capital, and a warning about the traces of the plague wave of infected people is issued here."

"After monitoring, the plague wave of infected people has a tendency to enter the urban area in Linjing."

"The plague of infected people is a phenomenon of huge clusters of infected people. It is led by infected people with certain thinking ability. It has more terrifying and more purposeful destructive power. Please be vigilant to nearby residents and armed forces."

"Repeat, this is the imperial capital..."

Chen Nan turned off the radio.

Cheng Sheng recognized that the man's voice on the radio was Lu Qi.

Chen Nan looked at them: "Haven't you met them before?"

Of course, I have encountered it before. The previous gathering at the Ten Thousand People Stadium in the Imperial Capital was the first wave of infected people, but no one thought of this name at that time.

And not long after they left the Imperial Capital, the plane crashed and fell into the virgin forest, not to mention the radio, they couldn't even hear a cell phone ringing.

Cheng Sheng lowered his eyes.

Blast tide.

It really lives up to its name.

"Is there enough food here?" Du Nanrong asked. He walked all the way just now, and he just felt that this place did not have enough rations.

Chen Nan paused, but he didn't expect Du Nanrong to take the initiative to ask this.

In fact, not long after they escaped to this oasis, he and a few soldiers who left Lu Qi's team with him at the beginning robbed a car.

The driver of the car said that this was the last batch of supplies to be shipped to the base.

Originally, there was an armed team with escorts in the car, but they drove out all the way, dead and disabled, Chen Nan led six other people, threatened them with guns, and finally hijacked them away.

Chen Nan didn't feel any guilt about this. In his eyes, the base was the least worth risking his life for.

Of course, facing Cheng Sheng and the others, Chen Nan made up a random sentence: "We contacted the base, and the base agreed to send us supplementary supplies every other week."

Hearing this, Du Nanrong looked at Chen Nan sympathetically, making Chen Nan a little dazed.

He paused, then said: "Fortunately, the camel thorn here is growing very well. This kind of thing is ground into powder and kneaded into dough, which can replace the staple food of sorghum. In addition, there are many animals living in the oasis lake. Occasionally catch a cub or two to eat meat, and you can also make a tooth sacrifice."

"How long has it been since you contacted the base?" Cheng Sheng asked suddenly.

Chen Nan felt as if he had been seen through when he looked at Shang Chengsheng.

He looked away, and said with a guilty conscience: "We only contact each other every other week. We just gave supplies last week, and we will contact next week."

Lin Qian sighed softly when he heard the words, and he looked at Chen Nan: "The base...was breached, and the large troops have already evacuated from there."

Chen Nan was taken aback for a moment, this was completely beyond his expectation: "How is it possible?!"

"It's true." Du Nanrong said dryly, "We just escaped from the base. To be honest, there are no infected people around here anyway, and there are no big mutant animals. It is much safer than the current base."

Chen Nan was silent for a few seconds: "There are no infected people? You will know at night."

"Those mutated camel thorns, what do you think we planted them for?" Chen Nan asked.

Du Nanrong's head was chilled by Chen Nan's stare, and he panicked strangely.
