Chapter 52 Escape from the Secret Mountain
The plateau rushed forward quickly, stretched out his arm around Zhao Yong's shoulder, and gently placed him on the wide back of the eight dragons. At this moment, the eight dragons suddenly became a little restless. The plateau gently rubbed the eight dragon's head, and it was easy to appease the eight dragon's uneasy mood.
"Get out of here quickly. The fierce fight just now has attracted the attention of some mutatic creatures around." Zhao Yong lay on the back of Balong and reminded him.
"Ye-huh, let's go." Since the plateau has gained the ability to transform, his intuition has become more keen, and the feeling close to a beast in his bones has felt the situation around him.
Zhao Yong lay on the body of Balong with a watery face to recover his physical strength. He squeezed out a mass of turbid gas from his chest and sprayed it out. It was as long as a washing. It was like an arrow, but its power was far from the air arrow spewed by the ghost mastiff. It seemed that Zhao Yong was far from mastering the essentials, but he was not in a hurry for a moment on the road. There is plenty of time for you to think about it slowly.
What Zhao Yong didn't expect was that the strength of the plateau, Luo Si, as well as Jiulong and Eight Dragons had made a qualitative leap, especially Jiulong. Judging from the strong atmosphere emanating from it, it was only slightly lower than the ghost mastiff.
The originally established road can no longer continue. Try to avoid the bustling blocks to attract the attention of monsters. Zhao Yong decided to take a detour to the west, so that it is also convenient to supply drinking water and food.
Although Jiulong can emit a powerful breath to deter some mutant creatures, such a blatant provocation will only attract more powerful mutant creatures.
The three of them changed their arrogance and moved forward cautiously.
The gray clouds in the sky are getting lower and lower, like mountains that people are almost out of breath. The cold wind is still raging everywhere. The fields that should have been lush are desolate one after another, losing the sunshine, and there is no breath of spring.
Looking around, there are white bones all the way. Basically, all the plants have already withered and burnt yellow. Occasionally, I see iron-red plants swaying in the cold wind, which is particularly desolate and strange.
All the towns have long been in a dilapidated ruins. Occasionally, a few unknown beasts walk through the wilderness, chasing and playing, but the blink of an eye has disappeared. The huge roar echoes in the wilderness from time to time, which makes people palpitate.
The earth rises with a stream of green miasma, which looks disturbing.
The world is like a rotten old man, exuding the smell of corruption and death everywhere.
The plateau feels like coming to a different world, and everything has subverted the memory in their hearts.
They carefully avoided those huge cracks and miasma, and kept walking through the territory of foreign beasts.
On the third day, they finally escaped from Mishan Town in Jingzhao City and entered Hebei Province.
Plateau stretched out his tongue and licked his already cracked lips, took out half a bottle of mineral water from his backpack, held it in his hand for a long time, and suddenly handed it to Ross.
Ross took the mineral water handed over from the plateau and carefully poured it into his mouth for fear of pouring an extra drop. He handed it to Zhao Yong, and the saliva in his mouth had not been swallowed for a long time.
Zhao Yong also took the water, took a sip gently, and returned it to the plateau. At this moment, the plateau also took a sip. This is the last bottle of mineral water brought out of the supermarket. Although food can be replenished by killing animals, drinking the blood of animals alone has already made the plateau and Ross sick. However, Zhao Yong seems to care about it, and the more he drinks, the more addicted he becomes.
The plateau looked up at Zhao Yong, who was still lying on the Eight Dragon to recover his strength. He was always closing his eyes and resting his mind. No one knew what he was thinking. He had to replenish the water source, otherwise the three could not survive at all.
The three of them walked all the way and did not see any survivors. They didn't find any drinkable water or food in the buildings they passed by. It was as if they had been carefully searched. There was not a drop left, and it was clean.
At this time, Zhao Yong suddenly opened his eyes and sat on the Eight Dragons to look forward.
"Now more than ten kilometers south is Zhuolu City, Hebei Province, where you can definitely find water." After saying that, Zhao Yong clamped the waist of the eight dragons with his legs and went away. Luo Si and Gao Prin followed him in Jiulong together.
The three soon passed through the barren farmland and entered a small piece of shelter forest.
The thick tree body shows their once vigorous vitality. There is no new bud on the bare branches, and even the hard and dry ground bark is squeezing the last trace of vitality in its trunk, and the whole forest is dead.
quack! Quack! Quack!
A piece of black pressed on the branches of the tree is like an open giant umbrella cloth. If you look carefully, you can find that the branches are full of crows.
The feathers on their bodies are as dark as ink and look as hard as steel. Occasionally, a few of them flap their wings and make a sharp sound of breaking the air. Obviously, these birds are by no means good.
If they don't go through this forest, they must make a big circle to the west of the plateau. A bottomless rave is in the forest twice. No matter how Zhao Yong, the eight dragons on his body, urged him to refuse to enter the forest.
Zhao Yong had no choice but to turn to the ground. Fortunately, his injury had basically healed at this time.
Just as the plateau wanted to remind Zhao Yong, he jumped off the wolf's back and walked straight to the crow forest in front of him.
Gao Yuan didn't have time to remind him. He was afraid of alarming the crows on the tree. He watched Zhao Yong walk into the woods step by step and disappear. The two had to jump off the back of the wolf, stiffened their scalp, and followed closely. Jiulong stuck to the ears of the Eight Dragon and roared softly a few times. Although the Eight Dragons were a little reluctant, they still reluctantly followed Jiulong. Go into this crow forest.
Groups of crows perched quietly in the trees, still retaining their pre-end living habits, and all of them seem to be asleep.
After they entered the plateau, they found that Zhao Yong, who had entered before them, had already disappeared.
Oh, a black thing fell in front of them, emitting a disgusting smell. I don't know what animal's intestines are. Obviously, this is the leftover thing that the crows eat from the corpses. Jiulong's noses are a little overwhelmed by these choking smells, let alone extract and track Zhao Yong's. Trace, for the time being, we can only take one step at a time.
They are very clear about the temperament of the group of crows above their heads. They can only be careful when moving and try to avoid attracting their attention. There should be no problem to easily cross the woods. The plateau explores the way in front with ultrasonic exploration, and Ross follows.
Without much time, they got out of the damn woods and found that Zhao Yong had been waiting outside for a long time.
"I'm sorry, I didn't care about you."
Plateau and Luo Si didn't mind. Everyone was safe. What's more, Zhao Yong had forgotten Luo Si and Plateau last time. They seemed to be used to it.
Not far from the horizon, a dilapidated city came into their sight, which is Zhuolu City.
At the other end, a huge ink mastiff wolf walked out of Mishan Town and looked for the whereabouts of the three people.
Half an hour later, the three appeared on the edge of Zhuolu City.
There is not much difference between Zhuolu City and the dilapidated Mishan Town. There are broken walls and ruins everywhere. The three of them have never been to Zhuolu City before. According to common sense, there should be a supermarket near the residential house, where water may be found.
On the plateau, they plan to start from the community near the highway. It didn't take long for the plateau to find a medium-sized supermarket next to the residential area.
The banners on the door of the supermarket have long been missing. There are some books and masonry scattered around the door, and the books are full of messy footprints.
Ross bent down and gently picked up one of the notebooks from the ground, with a few lines of tender handwriting on it:
On Monday, I finished my homework today and was fine. I took out the needle that my mother sewed to play. I accidentally stabbed a chicken to death. I was very sad. I will never play with needles anymore...
On Tuesday, there was no sun today. It's really bad. Dad bought two goldfish and drowned one in the water tank. I'm very sad...
I don't know where the children dropped the notebook. Looking at the tender words on it, it makes people laugh. The innocence may only appear in the memory in the future. Luo Si gently closed the book and put it close to his arms.
Zhao Yong and Gao Yuan had already entered the supermarket and began to search carefully. The messy goods in the supermarket were scattered all over the place, but nothing was found, and no food and water were found.
Suddenly, several figures flashed outside the supermarket door. Jiulong rushed out of the door and roared at the figure. The eight dragons stood in front of Roth, and the werewolf-transforming plateau had also run out of the house to protect Roth. Zhao Yong still seemed to be unwilling to give up and was still looking for goods in the garbage dump.
Several figures shuttled and jumped between the buildings, as if they were not interested in Rohs and others at all. In a blink of an eye, they disappeared into the corner and disappeared, which made the plateau and others falsely surprised.
All the food and water sources in the supermarket have long been swept away by the survivors. There is no way to go to another supermarket, hoping that they can find a little water source there. However, at this moment, from the direction of the dark shadows that have just disappeared, there are bursts of shouts and fierce fighting.
Someone! Plateau and Rose rushed in that direction at the first time, and they are now confident to face any accident.
Bypassing several houses, the plateau and Luo Si came to an inconspicuous alley and hid in the darkness.
At the end of the alley, three black tiger-patterned giant cats blocked the two girls in a corner. The taller girl blocked the front and protected the little girl behind her. She didn't want to be hurt.
