Chapter 143 Selected Address
Gu Chaochao shouted from behind, "Take the one lying down with you, let's go!"
Someone went over and carried Xue Wenxing onto the last car, and the others followed suit.
During this process, no one dared to touch the people brought by Xue Yong.
Xue Yong could only run over and untie Xue Nian Yao, and then the two of them watched helplessly as the four cars drove out of their sight.
They hurriedly asked someone to drive to catch up.
When they got on the highway, Gu Chao asked the people behind him to break Xue Wenxing's legs and throw him out of the car.
The car following behind almost ran him over, but it finally braked in time.
Lu Ming looked in the rearview mirror. The Xue family members were staring straight in their direction. He asked the driver next to him with some concern, "Now that we have become mortal enemies with them, is it really okay for us to just leave like this?"
Gu Chao laughed, raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Ming: "So what do you want to do? Cut off the roots?"
Lu Ming thought for a while and said, "I don't know either."
Gu Chao suddenly whispered, "Is it because you are unhappy with that woman that you want to destroy them?"
Lu Ming hit his arm, "What? I'm just thinking about everyone!"
He hissed and looked at her aggrievedly, "It hurts."
Lu Ming was surprised to see the usually tough Gu Chao showing such an innocent expression. He chuckled and touched the place where he was hit soothingly. "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt."
Gu Chao raised the corners of his mouth quietly, feeling satisfied.
After enjoying the soft touch for a while, he explained, "I only let them go for the sake of the 80,000 survivors in that base. If they died, the base would quickly collapse. Besides, they're just tools. Our real enemy is probably in the capital. As long as there's even one person left alive in this base, the people behind them will eventually figure out we stole their stuff. But by then, they'll be in the dark, making it difficult to deal with them."
"What? Don't they have military backgrounds? Who else is behind them?"
"Think about it, even if a zombie outbreak hit that unit's base and everyone was about to be killed, would they have told a few civilians about such a confidential matter without a high-ranking official taking over? I'm afraid they would rather die than reveal it."
"That's right...ah, I see. Hangyuan has set up an interception device. When they contact the person behind the scenes, we can follow the clues and find the person behind it!"
Gu Chao nodded and praised her, "Lu Lu is really smart."
Luming raised his head proudly and whistled.
The two children in the back row had different reactions when they saw the two people in an atmosphere that was obviously different from before.
Xiaoyue stared at them curiously, while Aze was very depressed. He turned his head to look out the window and started shooting ice arrows again.
He felt that his good sister had been taken away by someone!
At night, while they stopped to rest, they changed back into their modified off-road vehicles and dumped these broken cars on the side of the road.
Now that there were no outsiders around, their operation went smoothly, and the two of them had expressed their feelings to each other, it was very worth celebrating. Lu Ming took out pots and pans, tables and chairs, cooked a table full of dishes, and placed them on a barren slope.
While they were eating, someone suddenly exchanged glances, and then everyone shouted to Gu Chao and Lu Ming, "Congratulations, Boss! Congratulations, Lu Ming!"
Gu Chaoxiao and Lu Ming were ashamed and they thanked them together.
After dinner, everyone sat in a circle and chatted for a long time before preparing to rest.
"Lulu."
Xiaoyue was already in the tent. Just as Luming was about to lower her head and go in, Gu Chao called her.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Chao looked around and saw that everyone else was in the tent and the night watchman was sitting in the car, so he reached out and put his arm around Lu Ming's waist.
"What are you doing?" Lu Ming was startled. The distance was so close that people around could hear it.
Gu Chao lowered his head and kissed her lips. "Nothing. I just want to tell you. Sleep well at night and don't think too much."
Lu Ming blushed and gently hit him, "I know."
Gu Chao kissed her forehead again, "Go to sleep, good night."
Lu Ming whispered, "You should go and rest soon, good night."
------------------
"Are you sure Xue Yong is calling Commissioner Shen?" Gu Chao turned on the headset and asked with a frown.
"Yes, that's definitely correct."
"And what was his answer?"
"He didn't say anything, he just asked Xue Yong for our information."
Gu Chao pondered for a moment, "Okay, I understand. If they keep in touch, be sure to inform me. Remember, record the contents exactly as they are."
"good."
If that's really the person...
Gu Chao narrowed his eyes slightly. That was really not good news.
Lu Ming beside him asked, "What's wrong?"
Gu Chao shook his head, "It's okay. Have you finished collecting? Then let's go."
The two got in the car and drove towards the city center.
A day ago, they arrived in this medium-sized city, planning to stay for a while.
But the further you go in, the weirder it seems.
Simply because, there was not a single living thing in the entire city.
There are no zombies, no survivors, no animals, only garbage and abandoned vehicles on the ground, like a dead city.
They were alert all day, but nothing strange attacked them, so they split up and went to various supply points to investigate the situation.
If there are few things, they will directly pull them back to the camp in the city center. If there are many things, they will tell Gu Chao and Lu Ming and let them collect them.
After staying there for two days, they set off again and continued westward.
During this period, the weather has begun to gradually turn cooler, and everyone's clothes have changed from short sleeves to long sleeves, and now they need to wear coats.
"We don't have time to go any further, so let's just choose one nearby."
Li Hangyuan operated the new unmanned reconnaissance aircraft they moved back from the military base and selected six nearby cities. He took pictures of the terrain, the distribution of zombies in the city, and the conditions of the survivors' bases for them to choose from. In the end, everyone unanimously chose City C, which was located in the northwest.
The city is located at a high altitude, more than 1,000 meters above sea level. It is not afraid of floods and is of moderate size, capable of accommodating up to one million people. For their small base, it is currently sufficient.
Not only that, the city is well planned, with an overall circular layout, surrounded by mountains on both sides, and a river flowing not far away, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. Due to the migration of zombies, the number of zombies left behind is not large, making it easy to clean up.
Moreover, there was no army stationed here at the time, and the country had not sent troops to conduct special search and rescue operations, so there were very few survivors, and there was no need to worry about local tyrants. It can be said that it was very suitable as a base.
"Okay, then we'll settle here! Tomorrow, we'll start cleaning up separately. Hangyuan, plan a route that avoids City G, and notify Lao Cheng and the others that they can leave."
"yes!"
