Chapter 130



◎Happy 130th day: Let’s go!◎

Jiang Muyun thought she would at least be scolded this time.

After all, we are going to the capital, not just to visit some neighboring city.

It’s possible that you might be gone for several years or even never come back.

She and Chu Buwen only went to the transit station and made such a big decision. It seemed that they were reckless.

Jiang Muyun felt that Qin Shiwen and the others would not stop them from going, but it was reasonable for them to be scolded for such an incident.

When Jiang Muyun explained the whole story, she was ready to hold back her tears and act pitiful, but she didn't expect Qin Shiwen to have no reaction after listening to her.

She was silent for two seconds, then said calmly, "Let me sort it out first."

Then he stood at the entrance of the cave with his hands folded on his chest and took a deep breath.

Qin Shiwu thought for a while and then asked, "Is your team short of a doctor?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Jiahao and others also reacted.

Zhao Jiahao actively raised his hand: "How about taking Li Anxuan and me with you? We both volunteer to join the team!"

Wang Qingqing was also eager to try it out.

But she knew that she had no advantage in either professional skills or physical abilities, and she had no experience of traveling for a long time since the apocalypse. If she rashly joined, she might become a burden, so she held back and didn't say anything.

Before Jiang Muyun could refuse, Qin Shiwen turned around and said, "No."

"They can handle common injuries themselves. If the case is more serious, they won't need to treat the wounds themselves. They can just deal with the body directly."

Qin Shiwen wiped the raindrops splashed on his face, as if he was talking to Qin Shiwu and others, or as if he was trying to convince himself.

"Now, when operating outdoors, mutant animals are more useful than humans. Too many humans would be a burden."

Jiang Muyun nodded repeatedly with approval.

Qin Shiwen asked Jiang Muyun: "How long will it take for you to come back?"

This question really stumped Jiang Muyun.

Jiang Muyun stretched out his finger and asked tentatively, "Three, three months?"

It's already September now. If everything goes well on the road, I should be back before the New Year, right?

Qin Shiwen: "Okay, I'll kill the chicken when you get back. It'll be just in time for the New Year's Eve dinner."

The three generations of chicks in their family have grown up very well.

According to the Prudent Farming Convention, after the third generation grows up, they can consider slaughtering the first and second generations.

Jiang Muyun nodded with a bit of confusion: "Then when we go to the capital, let's take a look to see if there is anything good we can exchange for it?"

Zhao Jiahao had just been rejected, and his tone was still regretful when he spoke: "Well, speaking of the capital, why don't you bring back some mung beans when you go back? I'll make you some soy milk. If you have soybeans, that would be fine too. We've been working on making a stone mill at home these past few months, and then we can make soy milk, soy skin, and tofu pudding freely."

Zhou Ying's expression turned serious. "Get out, salty people. Tofu pudding must be sweet."

Zhao Jiahao was shocked: "Sweet lovers are heretics! How can you eat tofu pudding with sugar?"

After saying that, Zhao Jiahao finally realized: "That's not right, how do you know I'm a salty party member?"

Zhou Ying sneered: "I've never met many people who love sweets who call tofu pudding "tofu pudding."

Seeing the war about to break out, Wang Qingqing cautiously interjected, "No, do we really have to make such a promise? When you two come back, can we have New Year's Eve dinner together? When we come back, can we bring you tofu pudding?"

Wang Qingqing frowned, "Now that I've said that, how can I possibly come back?"

Jiang Muyun's face turned green.

"You'd better have prayed today!"

When I walked 1,500 kilometers from Xishi, it didn’t feel so dangerous!

In order to fight against the power of metaphysics, Jiang Muyun and Chu Buwen specially lit mosquito coils on the Marxism textbooks before setting off.

They had found the textbook when they were searching for books before. They had originally intended to bring it back as a hypnosis reading material, but they didn't expect it to come in handy at this time.

Jiang Muyun held up the mosquito coil and bowed three times. He also pulled Chu Buwen to pray together with him while looking at the Marxist philosophy textbook: "Marxist philosophy is my witness that we are both unwavering materialists and firmly believe that science can defeat all metaphysics. Amen."

Wang Qingqing was shocked by their abstract behavior.

Wang Qingqing: "You two are really great..."

Jiang Muyun put on the military canteen and put the flashlight on his waist: "It never hurts to be more prepared."

Jiang Muyun had indeed prepared a lot this time.

So much so that after Captain Yu and his men met them, they once again became suspicious of their identities.

Doesn't this look like the result of professional talent trained by some secret organization?

Jiang Muyun and Chu Buwen were both wearing the three-proof jackets and waterproof overalls they had bought before the end of the world. Their shoes were waterproof military boots they had found in the Nanshan warehouse. They were carrying professional-looking mountaineering bags on their backs and carrying two large travel bags in their hands.

It looked more prepared than he was.

What amazed Captain Yu the most was the bulges on the backs of their waists, which showed at a glance that something was hidden under their jackets.

After the two men got on the boat, Captain Yu asked and found out that they were wearing small waist bags around their waists.

In a small waist bag, there is not only a small amount of emergency food, but also an emergency medical kit, weapons, magnesium rods and other items.

Not only were there bags around their waists, but there were also things scattered in the pockets of each of their bodies.

Even Xiaobai was carrying a small bag.

Only the Baymax, which can be carried in your pocket at any time, does not need to carry weight.

This is all to prevent the backpack from being lost.

Jiang Muyun and his friend had encountered too many unexpected situations outside. An emergency kit could not give them enough sense of security. They had to be prepared for two or even three situations to feel at ease.

Jiang Muyun could seriously say that this was definitely not intended to fight against metaphysics.

real.

"It's a pleasure working with you." Jiang Muyun jumped onto the kayak and greeted the people on the boat with a smile.

Captain Yu brought all the people with him and sailed directly to pick up Jiang Muyun and Chu Buwen.

It can be seen that Captain Yu really invested a lot of money. This time he drove out four eight-seater kayaks.

The four kayaks were connected together by parachute ropes. People and animals were on the two kayaks in front, and the two kayaks in the back were used as trailers and only to carry supplies.

The supplies on the two rafts at the back were tightly wrapped with membrane and firmly fixed to the hull.

Jiang Muyun and Chu Buwen took a look at the travel bag when they were putting it away. The bulk of it was fuel, and there were also outboard motors and life rafts.

In case the two ships in front break down, there is still the ship behind to support them.

Taking the weight issue into consideration, the big Samoyed Tutu and his owner Zhou Fei, the Husky Xiaoguai and his owner Gao Liang and Tang An, the three people and two dogs took a boat.

Jiang Muyun and Chu Buwen took Dabai and Xiaobai on a boat with Captain Yu, Professor Chen, Professor Chen's granddaughter Chen Cheng and her parrot.

The little sloth was too big and could only swim in the water.

When Jiang Muyun got on the boat, Xiaolan even poked its head out from the water, and lay on the edge of the boat, looking at Jiang Muyun expectantly. It was not until Jiang Muyun reached out and touched its golden head twice that it half shyly and half contentedly buried itself in the water, and rolled happily in the water.

Jiang Muyun thought he had seen through Xiaolan's true nature, but he was still uncontrollably aroused by Xiaolan.

Little Lazy is so cute! He just likes me! What's wrong with him?

Jiang Muyun covered his heart and convinced himself.

The wind is light today and the sky is gloomy but bright.

The awnings on the kayaks served their purpose well, and they didn't have to use flashlights to travel in the dark.

It's a good day to travel.

Qin Shiwen and the others who had come to see them off stood on the shore and waved. Wang Qingqing even shouted, "I didn't even pray when I got up today! You two should come back soon!"

These words left Captain Yu stunned.

Logically speaking, shouldn’t a wish be granted only after praying to God?

This means several things!

Aren't you guys on good terms? Why do you cast spells and curses at the critical moment?

The materialistic god of war Jiang Muyun disdainfully said, "Ignore her. She's just trying to make amends for her mistakes and be a utilitarian milker."

Captain Yu didn't understand the complicated relationship between the words and anti-words between them, so he could only scratch his head and pass it over.

"Here are the maps for you two." Captain Yu handed a large stack of plastic-wrapped maps to Jiang Muyun and Chu Buwen.

Chu Buwen also took out the map they had prepared in advance from his bag.

Now no one knows what is wrong with the magnetic field of the blue planet. The compass goes crazy from time to time, and it is completely impossible to rely on the compass to determine the direction. The satellite positioning system has long been scrapped.

But they were in a hurry on their way to the capital. If they got lost and wasted time, the consequences might be so serious that they could not bear it.

Helplessly, Jiang Muyun and Chu Buwen could only use their old skills.

It was just like how they streaked across the road after the tsunami, but finally managed to find their location by looking at the topographic map.

This time on the road, they will also use similar methods to locate themselves.

Jiang Muyun tapped on the topographic map with a pencil: "Have you measured the kayak's speed?"

The map Jiang Muyun is using now is the one they used to calculate their own location.

They had packed quite a few maps for this trip, including topographic maps, traffic maps, and tourist maps. Besides the original maps, they also had handwritten and electronic copies as backups, just in case something unexpected happened during rainy days.

It was also because they had so many maps that Jiang Muyun could write and draw on the maps without any scruples, and it was also more convenient to calculate the location.

Captain Yu glanced at the small notebook in his hand, then checked his watch. "We came from South One Base. We had a parrot to guide us, so we took a straight line. It took us twenty-six minutes. With the added weight, we had to slow down for safety reasons. Our preliminary estimate is around fifteen kilometers per hour."

Jiang Muyun glanced at the time. It was 8:40 in the morning.

She circled a location on the map. "According to the plan, we're heading directly northeast. As long as we stay on track, we'll definitely get here before dark."

It was too dangerous to travel in the pitch darkness with a flashlight. There must be a lot of highway robbers like the one we encountered near the transfer station before.

There was no other way before. They had to prepare emergency boats before the flood came, and it was still dark, so they had to take some risks.

The rain is not as terrible as it was at the beginning. Although the sky is gloomy, at least the day and night can be distinguished. Naturally, they still have to choose a relatively safe time to travel.

According to the situation in the past two days, the sky usually starts to darken around four o'clock in the afternoon.

To be on the safe side, they should start looking for a place to rest for the night at three o'clock.

Jiang Muyun made an estimate in his mind, compared the topographic map and the city planning map, and set their camp for today less than 90 kilometers northeast of their current location.

There is a boarding school there that claims to be a fully closed military-style management school. It is quite famous in the surrounding cities, and Jiang Muyun and others have heard of it.

"The school is located in a remote, high-altitude area. According to the current water level, as long as the school buildings haven't collapsed, we can find a suitable place to stay temporarily." Jiang Muyun explained to the others, "It's on the outskirts of the city, with a shortage of supplies. There won't be any survivors who would settle there, so it's a relatively suitable location. If that doesn't work out, I've reserved enough time for us to move to the nearby university town."

After all, it was the first day of the trip and Professor Chen was in the team. Jiang Muyun planned all the routes according to the most conservative standards, striving to minimize all risks.

"Okay, let's follow this route." said Captain Yu.

The little parrot standing on the shoulder of the little girl Chen Cheng shook its pink feathers, flapped its wings a few times under the awning, and chirped a few times towards the north.

With the help of the little parrot, Jiang Muyun and others quickly determined the direction.

The hum of the engine sounded, a whirlpool formed under the turbid water surface, and the kayak broke through the rain curtain and headed towards the capital.
