The fire box is in the official southern base. It is impossible to open it without a sensor and password. Even if an outsider gets it, it is useless. However, it is the civilization that China has devoted so much effort to. If
you don't encounter it, it doesn't matter. If you encounter it, you still have to find a way to collect it.
After discussion, Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen plan to go and take a look.
At any time, safety comes first.
Wear a constant temperature clothing as a base, then put on a bulletproof vest, the outer suit is tattered, and the face is dirty.
As for the wolf's heart and dog's lungs, forget it, it can't be hidden.
It's two or three kilometers away, so walk there.
As they get closer, the two look alert.
Bai Xue is cunning, and she and Gouzi take
a detour to encircle them. Jiang Ning believed it and asked Huo Yishen to lead them to take a detour, while he and Doudou would attract the other side's attention head-on.
Divide the work and take your positions.
The two pretended to be long-distance migrants, walking slowly and weakly.
"Look, there seems to be a box ahead."
The two hurried over, and Jiang Ning found footprints around, but not too many. Just as he
was about to get closer, a man in a tattered hat rushed out from the side with a gun in his hand, "Hey, I found this first!"
It was a bit fierce, but it was just a verbal warning, and he didn't shoot directly.
A foreigner, and he spoke English.
Blond hair, eagle nose, thin body.
Jiang Ning raised his hand and said in plastic English, "Don't shoot, we have no bad intentions."
The man emphasized, "I found it first, this box belongs to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Yishen hit him from behind with the butt of his gun, and he fell to the ground with a bang.
He didn't faint, but screamed in pain.
Huo Yishen picked up his broken gun, which had no bullets in it.
Now it was Jiang Ning's turn to point the gun at him, "You seem to be very interested in the box."
The man quickly raised his hands and begged for mercy in panic, "Don't kill me, the reward can be split in half."
Jiang Ning was surprised, "Reward?"
Seeing that she was puzzled, the man explained, "I am a bounty hunter, and I am here specifically to find the box."
Jiang Ning's head buzzed, "Who asked you to find the box?"
Could it be the Huacheng base?
They are reclaiming land to build an island, do they have the time?
Even if there is, it is tens of thousands of miles away from here. How can they transport it back after finding it? "It's
a bounty issued by Fengcheng. As long as you find the box, you will get a batch of food, or you can become a citizen of the base."
Fengcheng? The three were shocked.
Jiang Ning put away his gun, took a deep breath to calm himself, and softened his tone, "Where is Fengcheng, who is their leader?"
"We have no ill intentions." Seeing the man was dumbfounded, she calmed down and explained, "We used to live in Fengcheng, China."
The man came back to his senses and rubbed his numb neck, "I don't know who the leader of Fengcheng is, but this city was built by the Chinese military. It is more than 500 kilometers away from here. Most of the people living in it are soldiers, and there are ordinary survivors..."
The man's name is Kos. He and two other partners formed a bounty hunter and came out specifically to find the tinder box.
If you find it, you can go back and report it. The military will bring people to open the box and transport the supplies inside back.
The three of them were lucky enough to find the box, but they were afraid that someone might get there first, so they left Kos to guard it, and the other two hurried back to report the news.
They had been walking for more than ten days, but they still hadn't returned. It was hard to say whether they had died on the way.
Jiang Ning's head was buzzing. China had already established the Huacheng Base, so who had established the Fengcheng Base?
She remembered that Zhao Quan had said that one of the heads of the five major military bases had died of illness, and two were still to be found.
Gu Tinglin was one of them, and the remaining one was the head of the Northwest Military Base.
If he was from the Northwest Military Base, how could he have chosen this name so cleverly?
But if it was Gu Tinglin, why did he use this name?
Jiang Ning was a little distracted, and it wasn't until Huo Yishen patted her that she came back to her senses.
Huo Yishen opened his backpack and handed over a bag of dried crocodile meat. "We won't compete with you for the reward in the box, but I want to know how to get to Fengcheng?"
Kos had been out of food for two days, and his eyes lit up when he saw the dried meat.
As a bounty hunter, he had met many survivors who were eager to find a base to stay.
Unfortunately, Fengcheng was strictly managed, and it was difficult for non-Chinese to enter unless they made a huge contribution to the base, so many people set up camp outside the base.
Kos told him the route without hesitation, and said with some envy: "You are Chinese, if there are no major problems, it should be easy to get in."
Jiang Ning picked up another bag of dried crocodile meat and asked him for more specific information about Fengcheng.
Kos's team lived outside the city, and the situation in the city was still inquired by the residents of Fengcheng who were also bounty hunters.
There are about ten thousand people in Fengcheng, more than half of whom are soldiers, and basically the soldiers of the southern army, and the rest are all ordinary survivors.
Among the ordinary survivors, some were rescued by the soldiers at sea in the early days, and some heard the movement after the land was formed and came here.
Kos chewed on the jerky, his eyes showing envy, "I admire you Chinese people very much. I heard that there are stone houses and brick houses in the city. We can only live in shabby tents in the city, which can't even shelter us when it rains or snows."
Now he is counting on this box to exchange for a batch of supplies. It would be even better if he has the opportunity to become a citizen.
"There is land in the city that can be used for planting."
It is said that when they first landed, all they saw was wasteland, but the Chinese soldiers and survivors built a city in just over a year, turning wasteland into treasure, and even started planting...
"By the way, more than a year ago, they set up a food factory and went out to sea to catch fish and make food. In addition to supplying it to residents, they also organized foreign gold hunting teams to go out and look for boxes."
Anyone who finds a box can be given 300 kilograms of dried fish cakes.
The survivors on the periphery at the beginning were dissatisfied and went to the sea to catch fish themselves. As a result, they vomited and had diarrhea after eating it, and several of them even died. However, the food made in the food factory did not have this problem.
Jiang Ning thought thoughtfully, "Do gold hunters find many boxes?"
"Not many, it seems that we only found more than 20 in total, but our team is lucky, this is the second box."
Doudou was very curious, "How did they get it back?"
Kos didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he admired it very much, "Ant moving."
As long as the box is found, Fengcheng will send troops. The farthest seems to be more than 1,000 kilometers away, and it will take at least half a year to go back and forth.
Doudou was shocked. What his sister-in-law could do easily with a wave of her hand, but the troops they sent needed half a year.
Thinking of his own trek for half a year, he could rest at any time when he was tired, and he had warm food when he was thirsty and hungry, but they had to carry things on their shoulders and hands, and travel thousands of miles regardless of wind and rain, and even at the cost of their lives.
The soldiers are like this, but what about ordinary survivors?
Doudou subconsciously held Jiang Ning's hand, which was delicate and warm, yet extremely powerful.
After asking about the situation, Jiang Ning planned to leave, "You are guarding like this, aren't you afraid that someone will come and steal it?"
