Chapter 390 Differences
Everyone gave Jingshu a thumbs up. Sometimes luck is really important!
Just when everyone thought they had escaped, an attack helicopter came from behind! This completely shattered Jingshu's idea of stealing the attack helicopter's frame from the river and bringing it into the space to see if it could be used, or at least filling the space with ore.
"Run, take shelter in the building!"
"Shh, keep your voice down, and turn off all the lights!"
"Hide under this big rock!"
The group got ashore in a mess and wet. Fortunately, Tank was slightly injured in his skeleton armor. Jingshu was holding the package and would rather get wet than let these treasures get wet. Finally, she got ashore. The group ran away and heard the helicopter starting a beeping strafing mode at the river. Not only that, it was also circling in the air with its headlights on.
Whenever a helicopter circled overhead, Jingshu's heart would pound wildly. She had seen the power of this helicopter before, but one day, she would be as awesome as it was!
After flying for an hour and sweeping for ten minutes, the armed helicopters finally withdrew. Jingshu finally heard the sound from the other side. It should be the noble's bodyguards who had arrived, and there were also many slaves who were planning to salvage the ore in the river.
Various cargo ships were passing through the breached canal, but the slave king's luxury yacht was missing. He must have been chasing the 23 cargo ships with helicopters. After all, food meant wealth and life in the apocalypse, and that was all the time they could buy for Yang Yang.
"I don't know what they'll do when facing so many helicopters." Lingling was a little worried.
"We can only pray that Lao Yang and his men succeed. Several attack helicopters can definitely flatten more than 20 cargo ships." Monkey said.
The slave owner boss must have the capital to dare to bring so many goods on the road. If Yang Yang came to rob them openly, he would definitely never come back. But no one expected that someone would be bold enough to do such a thing as swapping the goods. What's ridiculous is that he succeeded. This is undoubtedly a crime against his master!
"With the captain here, you have to believe in his fighting ability." The snake demon took off his clothes to reveal his well-proportioned muscles and the wounds that had just been scratched by the sharp blade and then bleached white, revealing his pale upper body. Lingling lowered her head even more shyly, and Jingshu clicked her tongue and shook her head, not realizing it.
The coolness doesn't last more than three seconds. When the cold wind blows, a group of shirtless men shiver with cold.
"Let's go, get away from here! We're afraid they'll raid again." Tank, carrying all the weapons, said, "Damn it! All the other supplies fell into the water."
"Let's go straight back to Colusa and meet up with Lao Yang and the others. As long as the weapons are not lost, it doesn't matter if the food and daily necessities are lost. We have rich experience in the wild, and we can get them even if we have to rob them." The snake demon said confidently, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face immediately.
Xiao Hei was crying. The bedding, toothbrush and stolen black bread he had just collected were gone again!
Speaking of this, everyone looked at Jingshu again. This woman regarded her luggage as her life. Even in such a life-and-death situation, she still held on to the luggage tightly. Fresh garlic sprouts grew from the edge of the luggage, along with the lettuce planted a few days ago. At this moment, she was stroking the lettuce that had lost some leaves due to the war with a look of heartache on her face.
The key point is that this person brought such a high pile of meat, with air-dried pork legs hanging and saying that they were going to make ham, beef ribs marinated with cumin and chili powder, saying that they were going to make air-dried shredded meat, and the leftover eagle stewed rabbit from a few days ago was made into spicy eagle rabbit jerky, saying that it was spicy and refreshing and a good dish to go with rice.
A few days ago, I exchanged all my black market coins for flour and rice every day at the black market. I didn’t eat them, but just fried them into fried noodles and fried rice in a pan, added butter and sauce, and made crab roe fried rice and butter fried noodles, saying they were snacks.
Even more outrageous is that they harvested tons of corn, fried it in a pot, and made it into popcorn. They even made chocolate popcorn, brown sugar popcorn, and milk popcorn. Look, is this something a human would do? Extravagant! Disgusting! Every time I see this, I have to swallow my saliva. Do you want to swallow openly or quietly?
...
"Go forward. If you follow this direction, you will reach the small town of Fred."
halfway
After giving Tank a light bandage, everyone continued on their journey. Except for Xiao Hei who kept saying he couldn't walk anymore, everyone else's physical strength had been professionally trained, but it was still very tiring to walk like this.
But when everyone finally arrived at their destination...
"So, where is this place?"
Everyone realized something was wrong. They originally wanted to find a place with people around to grab some supplies or daily necessities, or at least find a car. However, this area was not only desolate and wild, but there was also a huge mountain, and there was not even a house along the way!
Jingshu's brows were furrowed tighter and tighter. She was not like other people who could not see clearly in the dark. On the contrary, the more she looked at these things, the clearer it was as if it were daytime. The more she looked at them, the clearer she could see the surrounding environment. She was experiencing the sequelae of crustal movement. The abrupt mountain in front of her was squeezed here.
This shows that the original map is no longer reliable. The squeezing of plates has caused many areas to be misplaced. A destination that was originally only a few kilometers away may become hundreds of kilometers or even longer.
Tank took out a map, shone a flashlight, and said, "We've walked from the canal to this town. If we continue in this direction, we can go straight for 200 kilometers and get back to Luxor. If we get a car, it will only take two hours. But we've come this far and still haven't seen anything. What do you think we should do now?"
The snake demon frowned. "Isn't this place a town? There should be supplies there. Our location is correct; we're in Fred Town. But how can there be a mountain? Even if the apocalypse changes everything, it can't completely obliterate all the town's buildings, right?"
Monkey put his hands on his hips and said, "Let's just keep going along the road. We'll eventually come across a populated area with cars. If all else fails, we can hike 200 kilometers in two days. By the time we get to Luxar, they should be done. We can reunite, settle our contribution points, and then start the next mission."
Everyone nodded in agreement. This was the most reliable idea at the moment. Only Xiao Hei had a sad face. He really couldn't walk anymore. Tired, thirsty, and hungry, he asked, "Then, what should we eat? I'm hungry!"
The snake demon said, "There are many things to eat in the mountains."
Jingshu shook her head. "I don't agree with this. I don't know if you've noticed, but this mountain and the surrounding wilderness seem to have been squeezed by an earthquake. The earthquake caused a lot of movement and change. We can't guarantee that Luxor will remain in its original position. The best thing to do is return to where the canal was and follow the same route. At least Luxor was still connected to the canal when we came here."
