Chapter 364 Something is happening
Bai Zhengli understood what the young man meant and said with a smile: "It's the end of the world now, where is there any place that is not dangerous? Long Province is so big, we can always find a place to settle down, right? Our requirements are not high, as long as we can find a place to build our own base. It's just that we just arrived and don't know the situation here very well. I wonder if this friend can tell us in detail?"
The young man subconsciously took another look at the entire convoy, estimating in his mind the true strength of the convoy, and said, "You just said that Long Province is such a big place, how can we understand the situation of the entire Long Province? But if you want to build a safe base, I'm afraid it won't work nearby. There is a Chengtian base nearby. These people are quite domineering. This area is all their territory. You are from outside. If you want to build a base here, the people in Chengtian base will definitely not agree."
Bai Zhengli frowned upon hearing this. Sure enough, the situation he feared the most had occurred! What he was most reluctant to face was the intrigues between people. Now that it was the end of the world, shouldn't everyone unite to eliminate the zombies? They were actually domineeringly occupying the territory. Could it be that they wanted to carve out a territory and be the king?
But after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly felt that something was wrong with the young man's words, as if there was something else behind his words. He pondered for a moment and asked tentatively: "In that case... we can only try somewhere else? Long Province is so big, it's impossible that all the places are occupied, right?"
The young man's original intention was to test, and when he heard Bai Zhengli's words that he was going to leave, he panicked. They had waited so long for such an opportunity, if they gave up in vain, how would they fight against the people of Chengtian Base?
So he said without thinking: "Even if you go to other places, you may not be able to find a suitable place to build a safe base. And the journey is quite dangerous. Not only may you encounter attacks from zombies, zombie beasts and zombie birds, but you may also encounter sneak attacks from mutant beasts, mutant birds and even mutant plants! Moreover, it is the end of the world now, and resources are scarce everywhere. You suddenly came in so many people, clearly trying to snatch resources from the survivors of Long Province. When people from other bases meet you, they may not be as easy to talk to as we are."
This sounded like a warning, but if you listen carefully, it seems to have other meanings in it, with a bit of a friendly intention. Although Bai Zhengli hated intrigue, he was born in the Bai family after all, and because he was a collateral branch, he was often excluded by the direct line since he was a child, especially when he was in the military! Many people were eyeing his position, waiting to grab his braids and pull him down from the position and replace him!
Although Bai Zhengli was not as sinister and cunning as Bai Zhengyi, he was also a cunning fox. He pondered carefully and recalled what the young man had said before. He immediately had a guess in his mind that the base the young man belonged to might have encountered trouble.
Just now when the young man talked about Chengtian Base, his tone was full of disgust and dissatisfaction. Bai Zhengli is so smart, how could he not understand?
He thought again, these people came out to see them and said such things, they might have some intentions towards them. It's hard to say they have malice, but they definitely have calculations. Otherwise, the young man wouldn't have said such things on purpose, and then when he deliberately proposed to leave, he was eager to keep him.
Bai Zhengli had a guess in his mind, so he wanted to test it again. So he deliberately asked: "According to you, we can't stay in Long Province any longer? We must leave? Is this how the survivors in Long Province treat the survivors from other places?"
He himself did not believe this. The end of the world could be said to be a relatively simple society where the strong were respected. As long as you had the strength, you would definitely be able to stay. Not to mention that they had to find a place to build a safe base, even if they did not build a safe base, I am afraid there would be many people who wanted to win them over!
Just like the team in front of us, after saying so much, isn’t it just to win them over?
Sure enough, as soon as Bai Zhengli said that, the young man became anxious again: "We are certainly not such people! But I have to tell you that there are indeed many such people. After all, you also know that the current supplies are too scarce!"
Bai Zhengli smiled. Long Province is a province with a lot of food. Other materials may be scarce, but food is definitely not scarce! The food stored in the warehouse alone is probably enough for the survivors of the entire Long Province to eat for several years. How could they still worry about outsiders coming to rob resources!
In the apocalypse, as long as the food problem is solved, even if other daily necessities are lacking, it won't drive people crazy. As long as the food problem is solved, drinking water can be obtained through water-type psychics, and at worst there are ice-type psychics, so why should we worry?
The young man is simply lying!
However, Bai Zhengli believed what he said, that there would be survivors who would not welcome outside survivors. After all, when there are more people, there are more thoughts. Especially in such a chaotic world, it is too easy to make people psychologically distorted!
He did not expose the young man's words, but just smiled and said: "Then what do you think we should do?"
This time, the young man hesitated. He didn't know how to answer Bai Zhengli's question. He vaguely realized that the person this time was too difficult to deal with. He was afraid that he couldn't deal with him at all! Wu Ke asked him to find a way to get the other party to talk, but after he said so much, the other party only gave some specious information. Instead, he quickly took the initiative and threw the problem to him!
How should he answer? He couldn't just tell them that they needed help, right? That would put them in a more passive position! More importantly, he hadn't been able to get any useful information out of them until now, and he had no idea what their character was like. If they were a bunch of jackals, wouldn't it be like inviting wolves into the house if they cooperated with them and even brought them into the base?
He subconsciously turned his head to look at Wu Ke, his eyes somewhat guilty: "Ah Ke, I'm sorry, I didn't do it well."
Wu Ke didn't blame him. She had heard all the conversations just now. It was obvious that the person she met this time was not easy to deal with, so it was normal that the young man was not her opponent. She sighed and was hesitating whether to directly propose cooperation when she suddenly heard the falcon on the roof of the car suddenly screamed and made a series of sharp cries!
Wu Ke and his teammates were already familiar with the habits of this mutant falcon. When they heard the sound, they knew that an enemy had appeared and it was giving a warning! They subconsciously thought that a zombie had appeared, but when they looked over, they didn't see the expected zombie, but a huge black dot flew over from a distance!
After a closer look, they realized that it was not a black spot at all, but a man standing on the back of a mutant golden eagle! It was difficult to see his appearance from a distance, but just by looking at his feet on the mutant golden eagle, he seemed to have a kind of imposing aura, which surprised Wu Ke and her teammates!
Wu Ke even discovered that the size of the mutant golden eagle was much larger than her mutant falcon, and its level should be higher! So she almost subconsciously stared at Fang Yuyang on the back of the golden eagle. The young man next to him looked at this scene and his face instantly became a little lonely.
Then, they found that the man had landed in the convoy, and was obviously with the people in the convoy! Seeing this, they were even more frightened - who were the people in this convoy? The man looked very strong, could he be the leader of the convoy? If he was not, how powerful would the leader of this convoy be?
While they were guessing, Fang Yuyang had already reported what he had seen to Bai Zhengli. As before, he was led by the golden eagle to take a circle around the area and even saw several small bases. However, in order to avoid being mistaken for an enemy, he did not go to the sky above those small bases to observe, but only took a look from a distance.
However, even though he just took a quick look, he still found a lot of problems - there was something wrong with those small bases!
The small base here is the same as other places, and there will be zombie hunters coming out to hunt zombies. The difference is that Fang Yuyang feels that the zombie hunters he saw seem a little lifeless, and he doesn't know why. However, they are very desperate when hunting zombies, but once someone is injured, that person will look desperate, and others will also show sympathy, as if that person is doomed to die.
Fang Yuyang found it strange because the injuries of those injured were not serious and could be cured easily with a wood-type mutant. He really couldn't understand why there was so much despair.
From that moment on, he realized that something was not right here. After he walked around the area and found that many people were in the same situation, he realized that things might be serious.
After returning, he told the story. After listening to his report, Bai Zhengli thought back to what the young man had said before, and a vague answer was about to come out in his mind.
Seeing that he seemed to be thinking about something, Fang Yuyang did not disturb him. He went back to the car and told his family what he had seen. Then he asked, "What's going on with that car not far away? Are they survivors nearby? Why are there so many mutant animals? Are they all contracted beasts?"
Fang Yuxin nodded, and told Fang Yuyang what Bai Zhengli had just said to the other party. Fang Yuyang touched his chin and pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "If so... I'm afraid there is really a problem with this place."
Fang Yuxin also said: "I also think that the problem should be with Chengtian Base. These people came to us for some purpose, but if the Chengtian Base is really so excessive, we might as well just destroy them! I just don't know how strong this base is..."
