Chapter 403 The Legendary No Man's Land
"Okay, it's settled."
Gu Luan didn't give them another chance to refuse, and turned and left with Jiang Xian.
"Thank you, Sister Gu and Brother Jiang."
A uniform voice came from behind, and Gu Luan waved without turning his head.
"Sister Gu, wait a moment."
He Sheng called out to Gu Luan from behind.
Gu Luan stopped and looked back at He Sheng who was running towards him.
"Sister Gu, do you want more black stones?"
"What? You found the black stone?"
Gu Luan's eyes flickered and he asked quickly.
He Sheng shook his head and replied, "I didn't notice it, but I talked to someone from the South City base yesterday, and he said he had seen it."
It's fate.
He helped a person from the South City base yesterday and started chatting with him.
From that person, I learned that he had been to a place called no man's land.
The man said that he escaped from the no-man's land and that the no-man's land was very chaotic.
In addition to the terrible environment and cruel people, even the stones he saw were black.
This person inadvertently mentioned the black stone, which reminded him that Gu Luan was looking for the black stone, so he asked the person a few more questions.
It is almost certain that the black stone he was talking about is the one Gu Luan was looking for.
"No Man's Land? What is that place?"
Jiang Xian asked calmly.
He Sheng continued, "I heard that in Province D, near the desert, the entire no-man's land is a desert."
"desert?"
Gu Luan frowned.
"I heard from that person that the no-man's land was once a city, but after the end of the world, it gradually turned into sand and eventually became a desert."
"Did he say where he saw the black stone?"
Gu Luan doesn't care about the desert, he only cares about the black stones.
He Sheng looked hesitant, "Sister Gu, he wasn't sure about the location either, he just said he saw it by accident."
If the black stone that man described was not exactly the same as the one Gu Luan was looking for, he would not have come to tell Gu Luan.
The address is so vague that it makes no difference whether you say it or not.
"He Sheng, thank you for telling me."
Although a little disappointed, Gu Luan was still very grateful to He Sheng for telling her.
"Gu Luan, are you and Brother Jiang going to the no-man's land?"
He Sheng asked hesitantly, frowning, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Well, I might go check it out."
During this period, they would look for black stones whenever they went out.
But apart from one that was accidentally found at the Imperial Base, no other discoveries were made.
Now that there is a clue, she must go and take a look, even if the hope is slim.
"Sister Gu, you are going to an uninhabited area, so be careful."
He Sheng said anxiously, "I heard there aren't any good people in there. Don't trust anyone."
When He Sheng learned about the situation in the no-man's land from that person, he also found it incredible.
He said that no man's land is a killing zone, and no one who can survive there is simple.
Those with honest faces may be the scariest.
Those with ferocious faces are even more frightening.
Anyway, once entering there, ordinary people simply cannot survive.
Although he believed in Gu Luan and Jiang Xian's abilities, he was also afraid that they would be careless and suffer losses.
"Yes, I understand."
Gu Luan smiled and nodded.
After hearing what He Sheng said, she became interested in that uninhabited area.
No man’s land, killing zone, haha!
After He Sheng left, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian returned to the small courtyard.
Dinner is served in the dining hall.
A large amount of supplies arrived at the base today, so the dinner was much more sumptuous and the cafeteria was bustling with activity.
"I heard that there are ghosts and gods helping the South City base."
"What ghosts and gods are helping us? The volcano has already erupted, what ghosts and gods are helping us?"
"You don't know this. After the volcanic eruption, many people in the Nanshi base did not escape. Those people..."
“When they regained their memories, they found themselves not far from the main force, and the supplies from the Nanshi base were also with them.”
"Supplies that can supply millions of people suddenly appear. Is that something that can be done by human power?"
"If you say so, does it mean that there are really immortals and ghosts in our world?"
"What the hell, immortals? How could an immortal let our world become like this?"
The voices in the cafeteria were getting louder and louder.
The people at Jianggu Base learned a lot from the people who came back from Jing City Base.
Before they knew it, everyone was talking about the strange things happening at the Nanshi base.
Gu Luan paused holding the chopsticks and listened to everyone's conversation with his ears perked up.
"Don't just watch the fun."
Jiang Xian put the dishes that Gu Luan liked from his plate onto her plate.
Gu Luan smiled at him, "Don't you think it's interesting to listen to other people chatting?"
Especially since they were talking about themselves, and as they talked more and more outrageous things, Gu Luan secretly laughed in her heart.
It seems that many people think that what happened at the Nanshi base is related to ghosts.
If it wasn't Gu Luan who did it, she might have thought so too.
"Sister Gu, you and Brother Jiang also went to Province A. Did you see this?"
Tang Qian, Liang Xu, and Xiao Xiang came over with their food trays and sat next to them.
He Sheng, Yu Xin and others were also together, holding plates and greeting Gu Luan.
"Sister Gu, please tell me about Province A."
Fu Shengran was extremely curious and wanted to know the whole story.
Unfortunately, except for Gu Luan and Jiang Xian who went to Province A, all the others were in Jing City.
"What do you want me to say?"
Gu Luan swallowed the food in his mouth and asked with raised eyebrows.
"You guys are saving people! And are the ghosts rumored in the South City base real?"
Fu Shengran chuckled, his eyes wide open.
Tang You and Jiang Suisui also came over with their plates and sat aside.
Soon, many people came up with their plates just to listen to the gossip.
Life is much less fun nowadays, so who wouldn’t be curious when hearing strange things?
"Rescue people? Your brother Jiang and I got too tired halfway through the run, so we didn't go."
Gu Luan lied.
If they say they didn't go, then they didn't go.
Since they didn't go, Wang Yuan and Chang Yi knew about it and would never put all the blame on them.
"Didn't you go? Too tired on the way?"
The corners of Tang Qian's lips twitched and there was doubt in his eyes.
Others don't believe it either.
Why does this sound so weird?
When did Gu Luan and Jiang Xian start to feel tired?
"That's right. You don't know how difficult the road is. By the time we got there after more than 500 kilometers, the daylilies were cold, so we didn't go."
Gu Luan blinked innocently to fool everyone.
Jiang Xian ate his meal without losing the smile on his face.
"No matter how powerful you and I are, how many people can we save? It makes no difference whether we go or not."
"So, we turned back halfway through the run."
Gu Luan spoke with such sincerity that he successfully fooled everyone.
"Ah, I didn't go either!"
Fu Shengran stuffed a big mouthful of rice in disappointment, "Sister Gu, do you believe what they said?"
"What is it?"
Gu Luan was puzzled, then reacted, "What about the ghost?"
Fu Shengran nodded, "Do you believe it?"
Gu Luan wiped his mouth, shook his head and said, "Young man, wake up! There are no ghosts in the world."
"It's so mysterious, who would believe it?"
"If there were ghosts, would we return the supplies to them? Everyone must have remembered it wrong, or exaggerated the facts."
Gu Luan looked around at everyone and asked them to wake up.
"What Sister Gu said makes sense!"
"We haven't seen it yet, maybe it's just a rumor."
"But if one person spreads the word, it's impossible for everyone to spread it."
"Sister Gu... Hey, Sister Gu, when did Brother Jiang leave?"
Everyone was talking about it, and when they came to their senses they realized that Gu Luan and Jiang Xian were no longer in their seats.
