Natural disasters descended abruptly, and the world underwent massive changes. First came extreme heat, then extreme cold, followed by earthquakes, heavy fog, eternal night, and acid rain, all arri...
Wu Yue longed to meet the people from the First Base, but she didn't know that the people from the First Base were struggling on the road.
There are many people in the First Base, and more things need to be taken away when moving away from the First Base.
Relocating an entire base is not an easy task, and it cannot be done quickly.
Not to mention that with so many people traveling together, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating are all big problems.
With so many people together, the number of big and small things to do in a day adds up to at least eight hundred, if not a thousand.
Some of these problems can be solved by the troublemakers themselves, but more often they need to be suppressed by force.
These things have greatly delayed our progress.
It was ten days later when they entered the grassland.
When it was still daylight every day, the journey was divided into day and night. Later on, when the eternal night arrived, the journey was no longer divided into day and night.
In the beginning, he was always the one making trouble, but later on, he just couldn’t take care of it anymore.
Everyone had only one thought in mind, which was to get there as quickly as possible.
When they saw light in the distance, everyone almost cried with joy.
With the light, will they reach the destination?
With this thought in mind, no one suggested taking a break, and everyone gritted their teeth and continued moving forward.
But as they got closer and closer to the place where the light was, they realized that they were not there, and what they saw was just a small base.
Because this base was too small and the main force from the first base had not yet completely approached, Zheng Wu had already led his men forward vigilantly.
The distance between the two groups was getting closer and closer, and Zheng Wu also saw who was coming towards him.
"Captain Kong?!"
Zheng Wu said with some surprise, "When I saw you from a distance just now, I thought it looked like you. I didn't expect it to be you! How did you get here?"
It was twenty days ago that they met on the way.
Having not seen anyone from the First Base for so many days, Zheng Wu thought they had taken another route and would not pass by here, so they should have gone to the base long ago.
Unexpectedly, Kong Jianming and others only got here.
Kong Jianming looked at Zheng Wu, and after hearing his question, he gave a bitter smile, "With so many people and so many things to do, it's inevitable that we'll move a little slower. It looks like you've been here for a while?"
Zheng Wu nodded, "Indeed, we have lived here for ten days and have settled in."
Kong Jianming smiled helplessly, "There are too many of us, and there are too many things to do on the road, so it is inevitable that we will waste time..."
Zheng Wu nodded when he heard this. "There's nothing we can do about it. Anyway, arriving here now is the best outcome. Captain Kong, what are you going to do next? Should we continue on our journey, or should we stay and rest?"
Kong Jianming raised his wrist and looked at the time on his watch. "It's too late now. It's not suitable to continue traveling. Everyone is very tired. I plan to let the team rest here.
Don't worry, I will have people restrain them and they won't cause any trouble in your camp."
"What are you talking about, Captain Kong? I naturally believe in Captain Kong. If you need anything, Captain Kong, just tell me. If I can help, I will definitely help."
Before Kong Jianming understood what he was talking about, Zheng Wu continued, "You must be tired and hungry after the journey. Although I don't have any special skills and I don't have any good food, I have some grass that tastes similar to vegetables. If Captain Kong doesn't mind, I'll have someone send some over."
Kong Jianming was full of question marks when he heard Zheng Wu's words.
Did he hear it right?
Is Zheng Wu talking about grass?
Seeing the doubt on Kong Jianming's face, Zheng Wu said again, "Captain Kong didn't hear wrongly. What I just said was grass."
At this point, Zheng Wu also laughed.
“When I first came here, I heard that this grass was edible and that its taste and nutrition were similar to vegetables, which is similar to Captain Kong’s current reaction.
But now that time has passed, I have accepted it.”
Kong Jianming looked at Zheng Wu with some curiosity, "Is this kind of grass unique to the grassland?"
"Not really." Zheng Wu shook his head. "You should have noticed along the way that there is no grass on the ground. Only this area has grass, which is planted by the people who live here. They live over there--"
Zheng Wu said this and pointed in a direction.
Kong Jianming looked in the direction Zheng Wu pointed and indeed saw lights in the distance.
Under the light, the outline of a yard can be vaguely seen.
“Captain Kong, don’t be fooled by the small size of the yard. There are only three people living in it, but all three of them are capable. Their yard is surrounded by an electric fence, and there are two RVs in it. They raise a lot of poultry. Their life is so good that I feel jealous just looking at them…”
Zheng Wu was still chattering non-stop, and it took him a while to notice that Kong Jianming was actually staring at the direction of the yard and didn't respond to him at all.
Seeing Kong Jianming like this, Zheng Wu was a little surprised, "Captain Kong, what's wrong with you?"
Kong Jianming retracted his gaze after hearing this and shook his head at Zheng Wu. "Nothing. I just heard your description and felt that it seemed like someone I knew..."
"No way?" Zheng Wu was a little unconvinced.
Wasn't Kong Jianming always at the First Base? The people at the First Base he led were all behind him, so how could he know the people who originally lived here?
Zheng Wu wanted to ask something else, but Kong Jianming did not give him the chance.
"Captain Zheng, you go ahead and do your work. I'll settle the people down and I'm going to rest now."
Zheng Wu didn't have time to ask the question, so he was forced to hold it back, "Okay, Captain Kong, get busy first."
Zheng Wu remained standing there as he watched Kong Jianming and his men turn around and leave.
He looked at Kong Jianming who was leaving, then looked at the yard in the distance, and finally shook his head and turned back to his camp.
Whether Kong Jianming really knows the owner of the yard or not, it has nothing to do with him.
When migrating from a large base like the First Base, they must be heading towards that base. They can't possibly set up camp here, right?
After Kong Jianming settled all the people in the first base, he gave instructions to the people around him and then walked alone towards the yard in the distance.
While walking on the road, Kong Jianming was also doubting himself.
In today's world, it is perfectly normal to surround the yard with iron nets as long as one has the ability. It is not necessarily that it is Su Nian and the other two.
But for some reason, Kong Jianming had a hunch that the people living in that yard were Su Nian and the other two.
Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the yard, Kong Jianming stopped hesitating and walked faster and faster.
You will know whether it is true or not by going and seeing it!
