Chapter 17 Giant Beast Mountains
After several hours of bumps, Zhang Jianyang's destination finally arrived.
A small town with a history dating back to a hundred years before the nuclear war. Zhang Jianyang has never been here in reality, but in the fantasy, this is one of the places he often appears. Familiar with this place, Zhang Jianyang almost closed his eyes and could walk out of the hundreds of kilometers of mountains behind this town.
After parking the pickup truck in front of a restaurant, Zhang Jianyang jumped out of the car, carried a canvas bag full of gun parts, and walked in.
The town is also 70 or 80 kilometers away from the nearest city, and it is located in a remote location, backed by hundreds of kilometers of uninhabited areas. It should have been deserted. However, after the nuclear war, the mutation of animals and plants made this town one of the most famous places in the whole northwest. A team of adventure teams appeared here, hunting mutant beasts and collecting mutant herbs.
A large number of people have emerged, bringing earth-shaking changes to the town, which has expanded several times in a hundred years.
............
After a simple meal, Zhang Jianyang deposited the pickup truck in the parking lot of the hotel and walked out of the town with a canvas bag.
It was already noon at this time, and there was no more adventurous hunting and gathering teams in the town choosing to enter the mountains at this time. At night, it was more dangerous than during the day. The time to enter the mountains is usually in the morning. At that time, the team that had been assembled for a long time will move towards the mountains one by one, and then disappear into the mountains.
Some lucky people will return with prey or a large number of herbs, while some will completely disappear into the mountains and never come back.
No matter which one, it is a net profit for residents of small towns or bosses who come to do business from other places. Lucky people will boldly pay enough tips, and those who never come back, the vehicles they deposit, or all kinds of domesticated mutants for transportation, become an extra income for them.
Over the past hundred years, it turned out to have formed a huge car trading market in the town.
Small town people who gather guests from all walks of life have long been accustomed to all kinds of people. Loneers like Zhang Jianyang don't know how many times they are every year. Usually, such people are arrogant people. It's just that more, this kind of lone walker has almost no chance of returning to the town. For a long time, it is enough for anyone to face the horror of the mountains, and it is rare to see the appearance of a lone walker.
Now Zhang Jianyang left the town alone, which surprised many people.
Lone walkers are not rare, but they also leave in the morning and usually return to the town before dark. But the lone walker who set out at noon is rare. Doesn't he know that after starting at noon and arriving at the mountains, the area he can search has been turned over many times in a hundred years, and there are almost no mutant beasts and mutant herbs?
It's just that no one will remind them. On the contrary, some people gloatically look at Zhang Jianyang's distant figure and scold the fool with a strange smile.
Zhang Jianyang became serious, and the soldiers were more vigorous. They acted vigorously and never dragged mud and water. They strode forward while walking, their waist was straight, and their whole body was extremely straight while walking.
This posture is not Zhang Jianyang's pretending, but a long-term subconscious action. Although he is not a soldier, he has a better posture than a soldier.
The mountain range behind the town is endless, stretching for hundreds of kilometers. The mutant beasts hidden in it are unknown. From the low level to the high level, there are their figures. Some mutant beasts are even more powerful. Even high-level star warriors dare not go deep into the depths of this mountain range. Even for a hundred years, no one has gone deep into the central heart of this mountain range.
The central area of the mountains is mysterious, and only some big forces can obtain pictures of the landforms inside with the help of high-altitude spy satellites.
Zhang Jianyang is very familiar with this mountain range, but now he has lost his star power, and he does not dare to hold it. After entering the mountain range, he quickly assembled the parts of the gun on a boulder. In the blink of an eye, an AKM7.6mm assault rifle appeared in Zhang Jianyang's hand. He skillfully replaced the magazine and then fired a three-shot at a small tree with a thick arm 300 meters away.
The next second, a bullet hole appeared on the small tree. The three bullets turned out to be connected into a line, all concentrated on one point, and the small tree was pierced.
If someone sees this scene, I'm afraid they will be shocked. There is no scope, or it is hand-to-hand, but it has the same effect as a sniper rifle. How can this kind of shooting be practiced?
Zhang Jianyang shook his head and corrected the rifle again. Although the three shots just now were shocking, Zhang Jianyang was still a little dissatisfied and secretly said, "After all, private imitation guns do not have the quality of military products, so they can only be used reluctantly." He made up his mind to get a real military weapon after this trip back to replace the one in his hand.
With the gun in his hand, Zhang Jianyang went further into the mountains.
This mountain range, known as the Giant Beast Mountains, is also known as the Death Mountains.
At the edge of the mountains, many places are trampled on paths leading to the depths of the mountains.
When he went deep for five or six kilometers, a voice came from a valley. Zhang Jianyang estimated that it was obvious that the other party either returned from hunting or looking for herbs in the mountains.
After the nuclear war, not only animals, but also plants mutated.
Don't underestimate these mutant herbs. Their medicinal surnames have changed dramatically. The divine herbs that turn withered bones into flesh and blood are no longer a fairy-like legend, but a real existence. But this herb has only appeared in a hundred years. At that time, he insisted that the commander-in-chief of a country was forced to repair his bones and bones and come back to life.
This kind of herb rated as a god definitely still exists in this world. It just depends on who is lucky enough to meet.
Other levels of herbs also have excellent healing ability. The mutated herbs are full of all kinds of crazy medicinal powers. Collecting herbs has always been the industry with the largest number of people after the nuclear war, and it even ranks above the hunting of mutant beasts. Even if it is an ordinary mutant herb, as long as you find a few herbs, it is enough for people to live carefree for a month or two. If you are lucky enough to find a better one, you may have no worries about food and clothing for a year. If you find a higher level, you can live the most luxurious life in your life...
Opportunity is dangerous. Behind the high income, there is a high death. How many people have died because of hunting and gathering in the past hundred years?
Over the hill, the valley is suddenly cheerful.
Zhang Jianyang nodded secretly. This valley is very mild in terms of humidity and temperature. It is indeed a suitable place for many herbs to grow. It is also reasonable that some herbs can absorb radiation and mutate.
However, Zhang Jianyang shook his head again. In a hundred years, there are not a thousand people who have visited here, and there are hundreds of people who have visited here. Not to mention the mutant, even the unmutated herbs have also been harvested. How can they give the latecomers a chance? I'm afraid that this wave of people will return empty-handed.
Realty, a collection team of seven people was leaving the valley. Looking at the expressions on their faces, they seemed to be full of frustration.
I don't know how many teams like this are every day. They often leave in the morning and then leave the Giant Beast Mountains at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, usually for a week to a month or two of collection.
Zhang Jianyang ignored the collection team and met on the path. He just stood on the edge of the path with a faint smile and let them pass first.
The whole team was surprised to meet a lonely person here. What's more, the star warrior in the team can easily feel that there is no star power on the other side, just an ordinary person.
It is not surprising that an ordinary person appears in the Giant Beast Mountains, but being alone is unbelievable enough.
When the whole team met with Zhang Jianyang, they looked at Zhang Jianyang with their eyes wide open, as if they wanted to identify whether this guy was crazy or not.
Zhang Jianyang had thought it would be like this for a long time. He just smiled and nodded slightly.
"Did you get lost with your team, or lost your way and broke into the mountains?" Almost when the team was staggered, the big eyes of the collection team couldn't help asking. In just a moment, she attracted the angular man in front of her, not because of his handsomeness, but because of his curiosity and his special temperament.
Zhang Jianyang was stunned for a moment, and then noticed that the girl was about 20 years old. Her hair was tied up, wearing a camouflage suit, holding an engineering shovel in her hand, and a marching bag on her petite back. Her eyes were big, her face was extremely delicate, and there was a rosy lips under her small nose. Well, a very capable girl.
"No, thank you. I'm alone."
After getting the exact answer, the collection team was again amazed.
Shui Meilan opened his mouth into an O-shaped shape and said, "Aren't you afraid of danger? This is the Giant Beast Mountains."
Zhang Jianyang raised the gun in his hand and gave the other party a smile without explanation. Instead, he thought for a moment, pointed to a small forest next to the valley and said, "Aren't you going to collect herbs? Maybe you should try your luck." After he finished speaking, he straightened his waist again and soon disappeared into the corner of the path.
With what Zhang Jianyang refers to, it is a small forest, a place that no one can pay attention to.
Shui Meilan curled his lips: "Will there be herbs here?"
I just don't know why Shui Meilan still believed it. He took the team up the hillside and entered the grove.
............
"Huang Yingcao, my God, it's a mutant Huang Yingcao!"
At this moment, the whole team was stunned. They didn't expect that there was such a valuable herb in this inconspicuous forest.
Even Shui Meilan was stunned: "Did he already know that there are mutant herbs here? But why didn't he pick it himself?
As a result, Zhang Jianyang's straight figure floated into her heart again. He was a mysterious and curious man.
(Update note: The normal situation is to put it at 12 noon and 7 p.m.... In addition, everyone doesn't vote well. Each collector only needs to give me one vote a day, and I will meet the small requirements, right?)
