"Brother Chen, do you believe what he said?"
On the way to the container area, Jiang Nian'an asked Shen Nanxing.
"The statement that the Jiufang family never intended to betray is false."
But he dared not speak carelessly about anything concerning the Bi family.
Looking at the thick darkness of the night, a glint of shrewdness flashed in Shen Nanxing's eyes. "The Bi family is indeed quite capable, being able to do so many things quietly right under our noses."
"It's not that they are more capable, it's that we can't be as ruthless as they are."
Jiang Nian'an held his hand, looked into his eyes, and her face showed pity.
Among the survivors waiting for rescue outside Beijing were members of the Bi family; everyone knew this.
But most of them are innocent people.
The Bi family could disregard the lives of innocent people to achieve their own goals, but they could not.
"However, this also serves as a reminder to us."
Jiang Nian'an looked towards the entrance of Jingshi, her gaze slightly darkening. "The defense of Jingshi cannot rely solely on manpower."
Despite their extensive precautions and the 24-hour patrols, they failed to discover the hundreds of thousands of mutated creatures belonging to the Bi family outside Beijing.
These things are incredibly good at hiding; no human can compare.
"Brother Chen, I feel more at ease knowing there are some small fry underground."
After a long pause, Jiang Nian'an spoke softly.
“Not only underground, but also on the ground and in the sky, it’s all a bit empty,” Shen Nanxing continued her words.
After saying that, the two smiled at each other, reached a consensus, and then quickened their pace toward the container area.
The container area is equipped with many high-wattage lights, illuminating the area below as bright as day.
The people who used to guard the container area were mostly from wealthy families, but now almost all of them have been replaced by military personnel.
There was a guard almost every meter, with tight security, and each guard was armed and staring at the surroundings with a serious expression.
The once noisy survivors were now as quiet as chickens, huddled inside the containers, barely daring to breathe.
Perhaps due to instructions from above, Jiang Nian'an and Shen Nanxing were greeted by someone as soon as they arrived at the container area.
Without saying much, the man led the two directly to the very center of the container area.
"The people living here are all our own people."
After leaving those words, the man hurriedly departed.
Jiang Nian'an looked around, then pulled Shen Nanxing to find a relatively clean rock, placed some white paper on it, and sat down.
Before long, Little Silver quietly crawled up to her feet, clinging to the container.
'Hiss'
[Master, the little mice have all arrived.]
Jiang Nian'an glanced at Shen Nanxing, who nodded almost imperceptibly.
Xiao Yin understood and disappeared from their sight in the blink of an eye.
The rats entered the city at Xiao Yin's behest.
However, due to the large number of tunnels and the need to dig tunnels to advance, even with the utmost care, some noise was inevitably created.
Have you heard any strange noises?
Some survivors sensed something was wrong and asked, trembling.
"Attention everyone, the rules for surviving in the container area are about to be explained."
Suddenly, a loud broadcast sounded, attracting the survivors' attention and covering up the sounds underground.
"Let's go for a walk."
Jiang Nian'an suddenly grabbed Shen Nanxing's hand and walked towards the northwest of the container area.
Shen Nanxing's gaze fell on Jiang Nian'an's feet.
A mutated rat the size of a palm is sticking its rear end up and crawling into the hole.
He kicked its rear end without making a sound.
After helping the mouse into the hole, it moved its foot and filled the hole back up.
Then, following Jiang Nian'an's lead, they walked forward, leaving the mutated rat, its mouth full of dirt, huddled on the ground cursing.
Jiang Nian'an pulled Shen Nanxing through the narrow passage that required turning sideways to pass, and walked more than 500 meters in one go before stopping.
Ten meters away is the designated area for the unified disposal of garbage in the container area.
Apart from the workers responsible for handling the garbage, few people usually come to this smelly place.
"Brother Chen, look over there!"
Jiang Nian'an pointed to the newly tidied pile of garbage, her eyes slightly narrowed.
Shen Nanxing followed her hand and immediately noticed something was wrong.
Next to the garbage heap were two dark, charred wooden stakes.
There was not a trace of life in it, yet Shen Nanxing instinctively felt that something was wrong.
He suddenly hurled two lightning balls in that direction.
The tree stump, which had been motionless, suddenly moved.
Sensing danger, they leaped forward, quickly dodging the lightning ball before turning to bare their fangs at Shen Nanxing and his companion.
"Zombies!"
Jiang Nian'an stared at the two zombies, her eyes filled with shock.
It wasn't because zombies appeared in the container area, but because, apart from a fang, these zombies were otherwise indistinguishable from normal humans.
In other words, as long as they don't open their mouths, no one can tell that they are not human.
'Roar!!!'
Two zombies roared at Shen Nanxing.
They were just sitting there properly as stakes when this person came up and started attacking them. It's really despicable!
Shen Nanxing rotated his wrist, preparing to continue his attack.
Jiang Nian'an pulled him back, "Leave them alive, maybe we can get some useful information from them."
"Um."
Shen Nanxing responded and then rushed towards the two zombies.
Jiang Nian'an then started to look around.
After looking around, I didn't find anything else that seemed amiss.
Shen Nanxing has already subdued the two zombies.
They looked fierce, but their strength was only slightly better than a level one zombie, and they were far from being his match.
The two zombies were tightly bound by lightning chains.
