Chapter 82 Safety Buckle
About an hour later, the incident of carp eating people had basically spread to the point where everyone knew about it.
Cai Huadao sent many people to set up an iron fence around the lake overnight and put up signs to prohibit anyone from approaching the lake.
In Ding Meng's office, Su Miye and Jiang Feng sat face to face, discussing some things.
"What do you think about the carp-eating incident?" Jiang Feng asked.
"What else can I do? It means that the creatures in the water are also evolving."
"Exotic creatures are evolving, but we humans are still fighting in our nests."
"Humanity will not unite without unification unless the alien threat rises to a very high level."
"Alas, we still have to reunify the Yanhuang Land first."
"You didn't call me here just to complain to me, right?" Su Shiye crossed his legs.
"Of course not, it's about tomorrow."
"Hasn't tomorrow's matter been decided?"
"There are too many things going on in the mountainous area. I'm not worried about it. I plan to let you stay in the mountainous area first."
"Leave me in the mountains? Aren't you afraid that I will usurp power and become independent?"
"If you want to usurp it, then go ahead. However, it is clear that Cai Huadao is the city lord, but secretly you have greater authority than Cai Huadao. Do you still need to usurp it?"
"Hey, what's your tone? You're looking so worried. You can't even make a joke."
"Oh, I don't know why, my eyelids keep twitching and I always feel like I have a bad premonition."
"You are thinking too much about things."
"Anyway, I'll leave Wangcheng to you. I believe in your ability."
At this time, Ding Meng came back.
"How is the condolence place going?" Jiang Feng asked.
Ding Meng pulled up a chair, sat down and said:
"The girl is fine and her mood has stabilized."
"Thanks to Lei Ming, otherwise I wouldn't have known that the girl was eaten by a fish. If it were the next day, the girl would have been digested."
"Indeed, even a biochemical man cannot withstand digestion all night long."
"By the way, Ding Meng, the plan has changed a bit now. I have decided to let Su Shiye stay in the mountainous area temporarily to help you manage the mountainous area. If you and Cai Huadao encounter difficult matters in the future, you can discuss it with Su Shiye."
"Okay, I will try my best."
"Well, I'll leave first. I need to prepare my luggage for tomorrow."
Jiang Feng left Ding Meng's office and walked towards the residential area.
There was always an inexplicable worry in his heart. Jiang Feng couldn't figure out whether he was worried about tomorrow's trip? Or worried about this mountainous area? Or maybe it was both.
Suddenly, a gentle female voice sounded.
"Jiang Feng."
"Zi Qing? Haven't you rested yet?"
"After you leave tomorrow, when will you come back?"
"I don't know, I might be back in a few days."
Ziqing slowly approached Jiang Feng and took out a round jade pendant the size of a coin.
"This is a safety buckle, can you take it with you?"
"Safe buckle?" Jiang Feng took the safety buckle and looked at it.
"It means safe entry and exit. You can wear it around your neck."
"It's a little inconvenient to wear it around your neck, so I'd better keep it in my inner pocket."
"That's fine, just put it on your body."
"Thank you."
Jiang Feng smiled and patted Zi Qing on the shoulder, then turned and left.
Just after Jiang Feng walked a dozen steps, Zi Qing shouted from behind:
"Waiting for you to come back, brother."
Jiang Feng stopped, but did not turn around.
After a few seconds, Jiang Feng stretched out his hand, raised it high, and made an OK gesture.
Zi Qing, who was behind, smiled and stared at Jiang Feng's back until Jiang Feng disappeared from sight.
When Jiang Feng returned to the room, he saw Li Ming leaning against the window with his arms folded.
"Did you see everything just now?"
"Um."
"Are you jealous?" Jiang Feng smiled.
"You have a beautiful idea." Li Ming replied angrily.
"She probably just regards me as her older brother."
"I don't care, as long as you don't touch her."
"Since I can't touch her, then I'll touch you."
After Jiang Feng finished speaking, he rushed towards Li Ming at an extremely fast speed, but was blocked by Li Ming's long legs.
Li Ming's raised long legs pressed directly onto Jiang Feng's face, preventing Jiang Feng from getting closer.
Jiang Feng took a few steps back and complained: "Aren't the shoes dirty? They pressed them directly on my face."
"Who told you to be immoral?"
"She said she wasn't jealous."
"Whether I'm jealous or not, I won't let you touch it."
"Okay, okay, stop making trouble and quickly pack your luggage. We are going to leave early tomorrow morning. It's just the three of us."
"Isn't the mouthwash coming?"
"Well, let him stay in the mountainous area first."
"Aren't you afraid that he will betray you?"
"We are all in the same boat now, and it is not time for him to betray."
"Forget it, I don't care about this, I trust your judgment."
"Li Ming, there is something important."
"What's up?"
"Su Miye said your strength is about 60, but I know your strength is much higher than 60. Since you have learned to control your combat power in the battle with Jiang Li, I hope you will reduce your combat power to about 15 tomorrow."
"Are you worried that the other party will have someone who knows how to sense power?"
"Well, this is the worst plan. For the strong men in the military base, my strength of 38 people is not very outstanding. But compared to ordinary biochemical people, the strength of 38 people is a relatively high combat strength. Maybe
It will attract the attention of those powerful people and make them wary. But if you expose your strength of 60 people, then we may not even be able to enter the military base and will be interrogated directly."
"I understand, then I'll control it to about 15."
"I hope none of them can sense it. This is the best situation."
Early the next morning, Jiang Feng, Li Ming, and Jiang Wei arrived at the gate of the town.
Following Jiang Feng's instructions, Cai Huadao had prepared a somewhat dilapidated bus and was waiting.
"Why choose the bus?" Cai Huadao was puzzled.
"Military vehicles and cars are too conspicuous. We are pretending to be refugees instead of going for a ride."
"All right."
"Then Wangcheng will be left to you."
Jiang Feng got into the car, Li Ming got into the passenger seat, and Jiang Wei sat on Li Ming's lap.
The guard briefly canceled the barrier and asked Jiang Feng to drive out.
Before leaving, Jiang Feng stretched out the car window and warned Cai Huadao and others behind him:
"Next, never cancel the barrier unless there are special circumstances."
After Jiang Feng finished speaking, he turned the steering wheel, stepped on the accelerator, and set off.
There was only one car speeding along the wide suburban avenue. Along the way, you could occasionally see a few zombies roaring at the car, and sometimes you would encounter a few energetic zombies chasing the car, but after a few
Being thrown behind. Sometimes there will be a few zombies who don't know whether to avoid the bus or not, and will be hit by the bus.
Jiang Feng turned on the wiper on the front of the car and wiped away the blood on the glass so that it would not affect his vision.
"By the way, isn't Jiang Wei a pure-bred cyborg? Why are you so sleepy? Just like an ordinary child." Li Ming looked at Jiang Wei sleeping in his arms and showed a loving smile.
"Theoretically, three hours of sleep a day is enough for a cyborg to carry out basic activities throughout the day. However, cyborgs like Jiang Wei who use powers every day need more sleep to restore their physical strength and eliminate physical fatigue."
"That's right. The last time you were seriously injured, you slept for three days. By the way, how long will it take for us to get to the military base?"
"There are still more than 30 kilometers away from the military base. At the speed of this bus, it should arrive in about an hour."
As soon as Jiang Feng finished speaking, he suddenly felt something abnormal in his body.
Seeing Jiang Feng holding the steering wheel with one hand and reaching for his butt pocket with the other hand, Li Ming asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Feng moved around, fumbled for a few seconds, and took out something from the pocket behind his butt.
Jiang Feng opened his hand, revealing the safety buckle that cracked into three pieces.
"It cracked just after setting off, which is really a bad sign."
"Who told you to put it on the back of your butt? It will be easily crushed."
"Forget it, never mind, we are not superstitious."
After Jiang Feng finished speaking, he threw the pieces of the safety buckle out of the window.
"Your sister gave you such a thoughtful gift, and you just threw it out the window?" Li Ming said in surprise.
"What kind of sister? I haven't thoroughly investigated Zi Qing yet. I've never thought of recognizing what kind of sister she is."
"No, what you said is so unpleasant."
"How can there be pure feelings between brothers and sisters between people of the opposite sex? Even if Ziqing treats me as a brother, I can't treat her as a sister. I said you are too simple, so you are not afraid that I will be in contact with her for a long time.
Have you been in love with her for a long time?"
"Will you be in love with her for a long time?"
"I don't know. Anyway, I haven't developed the feeling of treating her as a sister. It's better to have less contact with her. I don't want to create too many emotional bonds now."
"Have you already fallen in love with her? So you're afraid that the more contact you have with her, the less able you will be to control her?"
"Oh my God, Li Ming, when did you become so smart?"
"Do you really like her?" Li Ming shouted excitedly.
"Haha, I'm kidding you. How is that possible!"
"I don't understand you anymore."
"If you don't believe it, then I'll have more contact with her in the future and see if I can control it?"
"No, no, it's better not to have more contact. I'm not worried."
Li Ming seemed to be unhappy with the conversation and gradually turned his head towards the window.
"Li Ming, don't be unhappy, let me tell you the truth. I have done some research on Zi Qing, and she originally had a warm family. After the end of the world began, her father, mother, and brother all died. We can't imagine that Zi Qing
How does a person survive, but what is certain is that this process must be full of pain and sorrow that ordinary people cannot understand. Now Ziqing just regards me as the brother who died for her. Looking at me,
She seemed to feel that her brother was still alive. It was precisely because that person was so important that Ziqing could not bear or accept the pain of losing that person. My presence gave her a medium to express her longing, which eased her pain.
pain."
"Looking at it this way, Ziqing is quite pitiful."
"Yeah, so I'm very conflicted. On the one hand, I don't regard her as my sister and don't want to have too much contact with her. On the other hand, I have to try my best to be nice to her and try not to refuse her requests.
It's like the brother who loved her very much. But no matter what, she needs to grow up and get rid of that kind of emotion. I can be his brother for a day or two, but I can't be her brother for the rest of my life."
"You should be her brother for a while, I don't mind."
"ah?"
"I can understand the pain. All my relatives are gone, and I am living alone. It took me more than twenty years to get used to a person and all the sadness, because I have never had it. And Ziqing
, I lost all the love I once had in an instant. This contrast must torture Ziqing every day."
Jiang Feng turned his head slightly and saw Li Ming's face, shining with crystal tears under the sunlight.
The scars hidden deep in Jiang Feng's heart were revealed again by Li Ming's tears.
Jiang Feng thought of his parents. That day, they left suddenly and never appeared again.
The room that was once full of laughter turned into an empty and silent prison. The torture of grief made Jiang Feng unable to cheer up for two whole years.
Suddenly, Jiang Feng released the accelerator, stepped on the brakes, slowly stopped the car, turned the steering wheel, and started to reverse.
"What's wrong with you?" Li Ming asked.
"Go and find the three safety buckle fragments I threw away."
