Chapter 030 Chapter 30
It was past ten o'clock when Xie Muzhi came back.
It doesn't look unusual.
But the exact location of the laboratory has been discovered.
"In Building 16, the upper floors are for living, and the lower floors should be the laboratories." Xie Muzhi directly told the result and arranged the next task: "Build a good relationship with the Giant Sun Base and try to get into the base. The security there is very strict. There are always patrols inside the community wall, and there are also several dogs with sensitive noses. They are easy to be discovered. Breaking through from the inside is the fastest and safest."
Zhou Baoping was worried: "It would be great if I could stay here. It seems useless to enter the base."
Liang Yuan said calmly: "Don't worry about this."
Seeing this, the few people stopped talking. It was getting late, so they chatted for a while about the next plan and then went back to their tents to sleep. Ji Yang was still in the same tent with Feng Yexing. They were both assigned to keep watch tonight, but it would be in the second half of the night.
As soon as he lay down, Feng Yexing whispered, "I always feel that our group, except for you and Boss Xie, is just a makeshift group."
It feels like nothing is done.
Tracking of individuals has also been discovered.
It would be great if someone from the official side could come over.
Ji Yang said softly: "Actually, they are all the same."
She only had five more years of apocalypse experience than them, and of course had also suffered five more years. She was also confused when she went on her first mission.
Feng Yexing sighed barely perceptibly and closed his eyes.
Take the time to sleep.
Since that doesn't work, just put in more effort where it works.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Ji Yang let himself fall asleep. He didn't get enough rest and felt tired the next day.
In the next two days, their tasks were easy. They basically just had to find out information about the surrounding areas. The most important part, building good relationships, was the task of Zhou Baoping and others, which she could not do.
It’s good enough not to kill the other party.
Because it is relatively easy, Ji Yang always goes out alone.
Carrying her mountaineering bag, she sneaked out a long distance, then took out potatoes and sweet potatoes to exchange for jadeite. It was quite cool, as there were really a lot of jadeite here.
Although there are not many top-notch ones, they are still very good.
I could easily collect two large sacks each time.
Of course, many people tried to rob her, but she killed them all. She did not take the jade stones she exchanged back with her, but found a hidden place to store them in the space.
But perhaps due to the depth of the pond and other reasons, much more jade is needed than the previous land. Two large sacks each time can only increase the area by about 100 square meters. Sometimes the quality is slightly worse, and the area can only increase by 50 square meters.
So after a day and a half of her hard work, she finally... increased the area by 350 square meters. The four little guys that she had previously kept in captivity still looked energetic, and two of them were even laying eggs, just like usual.
It seems there should be no problem.
Of course, there are no special effects.
That's good enough.
The next afternoon, it was time to trade with the Giant Sun Base.
Ji Yang did not act alone again, but followed Xie Muchi to the transaction site, and then found that Zhou Baoping and others were indeed powerful and had become good friends with the other party's person in charge.
Of course, the other party is not the top leader or the second-in-command, and those people can never see him at all.
In order to get better weapons, they are willing to pay more cold-resistant seeds and some common medicines.
Weapons are no small matter, especially since they wanted large-scale lethal weapons, various explosive packs, rocket launchers, grenades and other things this time. And I don’t know why they said they wanted to see more powerful weapons, so they chose the base as the transaction address.
Of course, it is the conference room closer to the gate, which was converted from the previous property office building.
The person in charge of this transaction was called Qiao Gui, obviously a Xia citizen. He was slightly short in stature, and his Mandarin was not standard. He sounded like a native of Yun City. He was surrounded by Liang Yuan and Zhou Baoping, who kept calling them Brother Qiao and Brother Qiao, making them smile. After someone brought up the weapons they wanted, he enthusiastically asked someone to teach them how to use them.
"Don't worry, I won't let you suffer any loss. With these guys with you, who would dare to rob you wherever you go?" He patted his chest to make the promise.
Liang Yuan was also happy: "Of course I believe Brother Qiao, but I am too old to learn these things. Let my nephew and niece learn. They will inherit this family in the future."
After saying that, he looked at Xie Muchi and Ji Yang.
"Oh, these two kids are great." Qiao Gui's eyes lit up and he praised, "You're right, only young people can use this stuff. I can barely use a gun. I have to unload the bullets in the middle of the night for fear of an accidental discharge."
Xie Muchi and Ji Yang were also very happy and pulled people aside to ask how to use this and that.
Liang Yuan pretended to listen for a while, then he felt itchy: "Didn't you say there are better ones? I can't afford it, let me have a look, how about I buy it next time I get something good?"
Zhou Baoping followed up, "Yes, Brother Qiao, let me take a look. I'm really craving that thing."
Qiao Gui had already agreed, and now being urged, he did not delay and asked someone to bring the thing over. It was not loaded with gunpowder, but it would be okay to take a look. Soon the thing came up and it turned out to be a military cannon.
It is much larger than a grenade launcher, but smaller than a tricycle.
The model is not the latest, but it is indeed amazing. The overall color is olive green, with smooth lines. It looks harmless, but it is extremely lethal. Liang Yuan and Zhou Baoping's eyes lit up, and their love for it was definitely not fake.
The two men excitedly leaned over to touch it, Zhou Baoping even pulled Qiao Gui and said sweet words: "Brother, you are my only brother! You are so awesome, you have all these things, your base is really strong! When I save up some money in this business, I will definitely come to join you, brother. Who dares to bully me with these things?!"
"That's right, our base is the most powerful base in Yun City!" Qiao Gui said proudly.
"That's for sure! We heard about it a long time ago. Otherwise, why would they keep all the medicines for themselves and only give them out after meeting you?" Zhou Baoping admired you so much.
The tone was exaggerated, and as an outsider, Ji Yang got goosebumps.
But Qiao Gui benefited greatly from it.
The two were about to chat for a few more words when they suddenly realized that Liang Yuan had not spoken for a long time. When they turned around, they saw Liang Yuan holding his chest and breathing rapidly.
"Ah!" Zhou Baoping exclaimed: "Boss! Boss, what's wrong with you?"
Xie Muchi's face changed drastically: "Uncle, my uncle has an asthma attack, where is the medicine?" He hurriedly went to look for the medicine, and finally found the medicine in Liang Yuan's arms. When he was about to feed it to him, Liang Yuan just took it and his hand shook, and the medicine fell into the barrel!
"Uncle, what happened to you!" Xie Muzhi was so angry that he went to get it again, but found that there were no pills in the medicine box. He was dumbfounded and looked at Qiao Gui for help.
Zhou Baoping immediately asked: "Brother, do you have any asthma medicine?!"
Qiao Gui also became anxious: "No, no!"
Zhou Baoping slapped his thigh and said, "Hey, there are medicines in our deal. Give me a box first, and I'll make up for it later!"
Qiao Gui nodded repeatedly, but he had just asked someone to move the medicine to the warehouse, and his scalp suddenly tingled: "The medicine is in the warehouse, you wait, I'll go get it!!!"
"Hurry up, Boss, hold on!"
The scene was in a panic for a while. Liang Yuan was about to die. Ji Yang had already found the asthma medicine in the space and wanted to go forward, but Xie Muchi grabbed her arm. She pursed her lips and did not move. Fortunately, Qiao Gui came back with the medicine. He tore the package as he walked, and finally delivered the medicine to Liang Yuan's mouth with trembling hands.
Xie Muchi quickly brought him some water, and Liang Yuan swallowed the medicine with difficulty, but his complexion did not improve.
It's been delayed for too long.
——
"We have a doctor at our base. I'll go find him!" Qiao Gui gritted his teeth and ordered, "Send him to the guest lounge!"
"Yes." The person who was ordered took action immediately.
Although there is a stove here, it is not warm after all as it is for the lower-level base personnel. At most, the temperature is from minus fifty degrees to minus twenty or thirty degrees. But the patients are weak and cannot stay in this place for a long time.
After a lot of trouble, Liang Yuan successfully stayed here, and Xie Muchi and Ji Yang, as his nephews and nieces, were also left behind, but the others could not make it, so Zhou Baoping and others could only leave with the batch of ammunition they had exchanged.
The doctor came over quickly to check, and the result was that the attack lasted too long, causing a series of sequelae in the body. The most serious one was probably that the respiratory function was severely damaged. However, due to limited conditions, a more detailed examination could not be carried out, and the doctor could only prescribe some medicine.
Because of difficulty breathing for too long, Liang Yuan fell into a coma after taking the medicine.
Xie Muzhi went to see the doctor off: "Doctor, I have something to ask about my boss's condition..."
Ji Yang took a look and saw that when the doctor left, there were still two survivors watching. They were probably under strict supervision and were probably living in the same living area as the two target persons.
Liang Yuan barely woke up for a while, then he pulled Qiao Gui to thank him with tears in his eyes: "Brother, you saved my life. From now on, you are my brother, Liang Yuan! What do you like? I will bring it to you next time!"
"What's the problem? I'm fine now." Qiao Gui also sighed: "You have this disease, but you are still running around in this icy and snowy place. You are really working too hard. The doctor said you need to take good care of yourself."
Liang Yuan sighed, "I have to work hard. You know my family was poor when I was young. My two brothers married into other families one after another. I have no fertility, and even if I wanted to adopt a nephew or niece to carry on the family line, they looked down upon me. If it weren't for the extreme cold, and my team had become a little famous, do you think their parents would be willing to send their children here?"
Qiao Gui had an expression that said, "I know you." "That's right. If I hadn't gotten married to a senior brother and become a manager at this base, my wife would still be scolding me for being useless and saying that she shouldn't have married me. Isn't she still behaving herself now? She didn't even dare to say a word when I took a concubine!"
Liang Yuan immediately said, "I guess it won't be long before Brother Qiao gets married. I'll bring the milk powder next time. I'll take care of all the milk powder for my nephew from now on!"
Qiao Gui was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
The two chatted heart-to-heart until Liang Yuan could no longer hold on and fell asleep. Qiao Gui paused and murmured, "A bosom friend!"
Ji Yang: ...
Before leaving, Qiao Gui did not forget to tell the two to take good care of their uncle and to call him if anything happened.
Xie Muzhi nodded repeatedly and sent the person out.
The door of the house was closed, Liang Yuan was still asleep. Ji Yang looked at him, then at Xie Muchi, and probably guessed what was going on. Perhaps she also knew the reason why the other group of people, Meng Jin and the others, came.
They are all sick, and if the situation becomes critical, they can give up everything, including their lives, to complete this plan.
Yun City is currently the most powerful place for this group of people. Due to the terrain here, the grain production is extremely large and the reserves are abundant, so the people in the base are actually not short of supplies. The survivors gathered at this time are the most loyal.
Therefore, it is also the most difficult to deal with.
Especially at this time, the authorities are still busy establishing bases and integrating resources to ensure that each official base has enough resources to feed the local survivors. They cannot spare too many manpower. Even if they take action here, it is likely to fail to achieve the desired effect and will also harm the talents they want.
If you want to gain the greatest benefit at the lowest cost, you can choose to sacrifice a small number of people.
It just so happens that the medical system collapsed due to natural disasters at this time, and many diseases cannot be treated at all. People can only watch themselves die. If the authorities invite them at this time, they will be very willing to contribute their remaining energy.
This can also provide certain guarantees for the family.
If Ji Yang was in this situation, and her grandparents were still alive, she would also be willing.
That's why Meng Jin disliked her so much, thinking that she didn't care about this mission. But this mission required her to sacrifice her life, so she felt that her efforts were being trampled upon.
Worried about being monitored, even though Ji Yang had thought so much, he still said nothing.
Xie Muzhi was the same, taking care of Liang Yuan very naturally.
At night, Qiao Gui brought food over. Liang Yuan still hadn't woken up, but he looked much better than before. Qiao Gui was slightly relieved. Liang Yuan's team was really good. They were very suitable to help transport the supplies they wanted. Moreover, the two of them got along very well. He really didn't want the other to die.
After Qiao Gui left, Liang Yuan woke up.
Ji Yang even began to wonder if he was pretending to sleep.
The three of them had a simple meal. Of course, the food was what they brought with them. Xie Muchi took out a pie from his bag. No one knew when it was made. Although it was cold, it still had the flavor of preserved vegetables and was edible.
They just finished the meal, and the dinner at the Giant Sun Base was wasted, and Xie Muchi found a place to bury it.
The three of them just chatted briefly throughout the whole process and there was nothing unusual.
Until nightfall, the entire base fell silent.
Ji Yang leaned against the end of the bed, feeling drowsy. Xie Muchi came over and whispered in her ear, "Get ready. We'll start in half an hour. Go directly to Building 16. The doctor revealed that they are all in Building 16 this afternoon."
Ji Yang woke up immediately.
We can finally get started!
For the next half hour, neither of them spoke. They warmed up on their own. Liang Yuan also got up and put on his clothes. Half an hour later, at exactly ten o'clock, Ji Yang and Xie Muchi were the first to go out.
There were people guarding the gate here, but it was too cold at night, so they didn't really get up from time to time. Instead, they hid together and kept warm with a charcoal brazier. When they passed by, the two people on guard were still chatting and eating melon seeds.
Xie Muchi was about to get closer and kill the other person.
Ji Yang stopped him and took out a crossbow.
This thing is really silent and can kill with one strike.
And she just happens to have more than one crossbow.
Two people each took one, looked at each other, aimed and shot!
Without a pause, the arrow directly penetrated the other's neck. The two men were unable to say a word and fell to the ground in pain, covering their pierced necks. They left smoothly, and Liang Yuan followed closely behind, but after leaving this side, he separated from them.
Xie Muzhi said softly: "He is responsible for giving the signal."
Ji Yang nodded and followed his steps to Building 16. He killed anyone he met along the way, which was relatively smooth. Although the guards here were strict, the internal management was lax after all, and it was not as strict as an iron barrel. As long as he tried not to make any noise, there would generally be no problem.
Ice and snow covered the first floor, so if you want to get in, you can only enter from the second floor.
They were not so lucky this time. The two guards blocked the corridor. They could only quickly roll in and take one person hostage each before the other party was caught off guard.
"Where are all those researchers being held?"
With the gun pointed at their temples, the two were dumbfounded. They were not powerful people, otherwise they would not have been on night watch. They did not dare to shout loudly and quickly pointed upstairs: "Twelfth floor! They are all on the twelfth floor!"
The answer was the same, and the response was quick and without hesitation. Ji Yang didn't waste any time and hit the other person's temple with the butt of the gun. The man immediately rolled his eyes and fainted.
Xie Muchi followed suit and quickly went upstairs.
They went all the way to the twelfth floor and knocked on each door.
Soon someone opened the door: "Who is it?"
The moment he opened the door, Ji Yang pointed the gun at his head. Through the dim light, she found that it was the doctor who treated Liang Yuan in the afternoon. She asked sternly, "Where are Teacher Du Yuqing and Teacher Fu Xiangzhi?"
The man's face turned pale at first, but when he realized something, he became overjoyed: "Are you here to save Teacher Du? I know, they are in 1201! But there is someone with them who is always monitoring them, you better be careful--"
Before he finished speaking, a panicked scream erupted from 1201: "Someone is attacking! Ah——"
Because charcoal fire heating requires opening windows for ventilation, the house was not closed, and such a scream almost instantly set off the entire community, followed by different noises coming from several surrounding buildings.
But soon, an explosion was heard directly from the gate of the base.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack--" someone shouted into a loud speaker.
Xie Muchi had already killed the man, and two teachers appeared in the corridor, one supported by him. They were both quite old, and the male teacher was a little younger. Both of them were very excited and tried hard to catch up with Xie Muchi and leave quickly.
At the same time, the doors of other residents opened one after another, and they all asked excitedly: "Are you from the government? Can you take us with you? We don't want to stay here either!"
"Please, take me with you. I'm just here for a trip. I was sent here after people found out I'm a doctor. Please..."
“…”
Realizing that it might be a rescue, the people who had been trapped here for almost a year all became anxious and came up one after another. The entire mission was coordinated by Xie Muchi. Perhaps in order to keep it confidential and to leave a way out in case something went wrong, many things were unknown to other people.
Ji Yang subconsciously looked at him, wondering if he could take so many people away.
But it would definitely be good to be able to take it away. Keeping it here would just be serving this bunch of garbage, which would be such a waste.
Xie Muzhi nodded: "Follow if you can."
Ji Yang went over to help him share the burden, and the two of them each supported one person. The others quickly followed, and most of the luggage and the like were not needed anymore. Escaping was the most important thing.
Halfway through the journey, they heard bombing sounds coming from the back door. The ammunition purchased in the afternoon was fired generously. No one had time to talk. Some of them didn't even have time to put on their clothes, but they ran over to keep up with their pace.
But as soon as I got downstairs, I was surrounded by a group of people.
Fortunately, Ji Yang and Xie Muzhi had enough bullets, and they opened fire as soon as they noticed the enemy, hitting the enemy in the head with every shot. The enemy was killed before they could even shoot him.
After breaking through this group of people, the front is temporarily safe.
But after running a few steps, another group of people chased after them.
Seeing this, Xie Muzhi was about to push the person in his hand out and go behind to cover the rear, but Ji Yang had already done it. Without saying anything, he glanced at him and then rushed directly towards the person who was coming.
The next second, two grenades were thrown out.
“Bang!”
The moment the huge explosion sounded, several figures were blown away.
Ji Yang continued to move forward, throwing grenades as she walked, scattering them like they were free. The explosions echoed around her. It seemed as if she had calculated the range well, and the explosions had no effect on her. Instead, they killed many enemies that rushed over.
This group of people were so frightened that they didn't dare to move forward at all. With problems happening at the front and back doors at the same time, not much firepower was sent this way, which greatly reduced the pressure at the rear for a while.
The people behind him were stunned, staring at the figure in the firelight, and exclaimed: "What the hell?!"
"This girl is so fierce! Which army is she from?!"
"Hi! So handsome!"
Xie Muzhi also stared at the figure, easily blocking the person chasing him. A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and then he said, "Let's go first!"
"Okay, let's go, go!" The others didn't dare to delay and continued running.
Halfway through the journey, the rescuer arrived: "Over here! The car is here!"
——
After successfully blocking the group of people rushing over, Ji Yang did not stop and immediately went towards Building 7. In the afternoon, when Qiao Gui asked someone to get the cannon, she noticed that the direction was this.
The entire community is centered around buildings six, seven, eight, and nine. Buildings six and nine are not in the right direction, and building eight is generally where high-rise buildings live. So the ammunition will definitely not be stored in building eight, so it would be uneasy to sleep there, but it won't be far away either.
As we got closer to Building 7, we saw a steady stream of people going in and out, all holding various weapons in their hands.
Ji Yang went around and quickly changed into a worn down jacket similar to the survivors here. He blended into the panicked crowd easily and lined up to receive ammunition very quickly. Someone kept shouting, "Charge! One enemy head for ten kilograms of food and one kilogram of meat!"
"Exchange for food!"
"Give it to me quickly, I want explosives! I want to exchange it for food!"
This group of people were also blinded by the immediate benefits and all shouted loudly.
Ji Yang quickly joined in: "Let me cut in line. I haven't had a full meal in a while!"
The person who was cut in line was about to get angry, but when he heard this, he hesitated.
This hesitation resulted in a missed opportunity, and Ji Yang stood firmly.
The people in front were still moving forward, Ji Yang followed closely, observing and thinking about the next plan. It was a bit risky, but... the theory worked, so let's do it!
After approaching the collection point and confirming the location of the ammunition storage, she quickly took out a grenade with the safety pin pulled out and smashed it in with two "bang" sounds.
The person in charge of distributing guns and ammunition didn't recognize what it was at first, but subconsciously and nervously wanted to pick it up. As a result, before he touched it, he saw the special shape.
"Fuck! Are you crazy?!!!"
The person in charge screamed in horror, his eyes widened in an instant, and he wanted to run away in panic.
But there were quite a few people queuing up behind, and the others had no idea what was happening. They kept pushing forward, wanting to get their guns earlier to kill the enemy. Ji Yang threw a few more grenades behind the crowd.
The next second she disappeared.
A huge explosion sounded at the gate, and other explosives were detonated one after another, and everyone present was blown to pieces.
Qiao Guicai got up and was about to check the situation when he heard this huge noise. The ground seemed to be shaken. He looked at Building 7 in confusion and complained: "Why did Building 7 explode too?!"
Everyone looked confused and didn't dare to approach Building 7.
With such a huge explosion, I wonder if everything inside was blown up?!
The top two in command of the base were shocked and confused, so they put on their clothes and escaped. The explosion happened next door, and they were afraid that if a building was blown down, they would be implicated. What would they do?
When they came out, they saw that it was the ammunition depot that exploded. Suddenly, everyone's eyes went dark and slapped Qiao Gui on the head: "What happened?! How could an ammunition depot explode?!!!"
——
Calculating the time, Ji Yang, wearing a layer of explosion-proof clothing, appeared in the thick fog after the explosion.
The smoke was choking, so she put on a gas mask in advance.
My heart is still pounding.
She had never played like this before. She used the space to stand directly in the center of the explosion. It was too exciting. She did not dare to stop. With such a large-scale explosion, this group of people would definitely not survive. She rushed straight in, and the people in the ammunition depot were so scared that they ran around everywhere. They did not even notice the presence of an outsider like her.
At this time, the base was under enemy attacks everywhere, and the weapons that were usually confiscated were released at this time, so the doors of the ammunition depot were all open.
As soon as Ji Yang entered, he was shocked by the arrogance.
It turned out that what they sold was just a drop in the bucket. There were many shelves in these warehouses, filled with all kinds of explosive packs, grenades, rocket launchers, bullets, ammunition... Each room contained different things.
At a glance, there are hundreds of boxes of ammunition alone.
There were two other warehouses that were probably good guys. Their doors were tightly closed and could not be opened at all. Ji Yang tried to pry them open but failed, so he had to give up.
Without bothering to check carefully, she put everything that she liked into the space. In fact, she liked everything, but she had to keep some of them. She left two boxes of explosives in each warehouse, and finally poured gasoline on them, making sure that enough gasoline flowed into the two unopened doors, as well as all the warehouses.
After confirming that everything was correct, she ran out, out of the gasoline range, and quickly dropped a dyed matchstick down.
With a "boom" sound, the edge of the gasoline instantly caught fire.
She ran out quickly.
When the first wave of explosions came, Ji Yang just ran to the gate, quickly lay down to one side and threw himself into a pile of corpses, and entered the space in the blink of an eye.
"Boom--" An explosion that was almost a hundred times more powerful than the previous one occurred again. The people who had just wanted to get closer to Building 7 because of the previous explosion stopped, ran away again, fearing that they would be left there if they were a step slower.
Everyone in the Giant Sun Base looked at this scene in despair.
My ears were deafened.
Who on earth could survive and blow up the ammunition depot twice? !
Several high-ranking officials of the Giant Sun Base also fell into complete silence.
All the powerful weapons I worked so hard to get are gone now!!!
It’s all gone!
"I, I'm going to kill them!!!" one person said angrily, his voice a little awkward. The others came back to their senses and dared not say a word. A few people pursed their lips and teeth to try not to laugh.
The next second, the man spat out a mouthful of blood and fell straight back.
Angry, so angry?!
