Abnormal survival in the end times

Chapter 130 Robbery, gunshots in the middle of the night

Chen Feng was startled as the iron door slammed shut.

He stared at Bai Wei blankly and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing? They are soldiers, aren't you afraid of offending them?"

The last sentence was almost spoken in a whisper, after all, the person was still standing outside the door.

"Offended?" Bai Wei rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "I'm just telling the truth, how can I be offended? You stay here, I'll go back and have a drink of water."

Bai Wei turned around and ran away after saying this.

"Lychee, lychee"

The late rice is about to mature. Bai Li and Bai Xiangtian are standing by the field observing the rice.

Compared with other rice fields, the rice here appears particularly tall and yellow, and the rice ears are so heavy that the stalks are bent down.

"That's right. After harvesting, save the seeds and continue planting."

The rice seeds in this acre of land were grown using white lychees. They were planted later than other rice plants, but matured earlier.

Since the high temperature in September, the temperature has not dropped until now, so even though it is November now, everyone is still wearing short sleeves and sweating easily.

Fortunately, the crops were not greatly affected, especially the rice, which matured half a month earlier than in previous years.

The apple orchard in her family is different from previous years. The fruits are not only small, but also very green. It is hard to tell when they will be ripe. Fortunately, apples are not a staple food, so it doesn't matter whether there are apples or not. Especially in recent months, some small trees that have not yet borne fruit have been dug up by Bai Xiangtian and moved to the tea mountain behind. The empty land is planted with potatoes and sweet potatoes.

When it comes to farming, Bai Xiangtian has always been bold and decisive.

Normally, rice can no longer be planted in this month, but the temperature has been abnormal since the end of the world. It is not hot when it should be hot, and it is not cold when it should be cold. The most important thing is that after a hot day, there must be a cold day. It is still hot now, but it may suddenly become cold one day.

By then, the crops in the fields will probably be frozen.

So after this crop was harvested, Bai Xiangtian planned to plant another crop, but he would not plant more, just two acres. This way, when the weather suddenly turned cold, he could let his daughter ripen the two acres directly.

Too much won’t work.

Hearing Bai Wei's shout, the father and daughter turned their heads to look over at the same time.

"Litchi. Yes, someone is looking for a brother-in-law."

Bai Wei ran into the orchard in one breath, and saw the father and daughter standing at the edge of the field. He panted and said, "Yes, they are soldiers."

A soldier?
The father and daughter looked at each other, and Bai Xiangtian asked, "Still at the door?"

"Yes. He was still there when I came. But I told them that my brother-in-law was not there. He might leave soon."

Jiang Minglang was indeed not there, but Bai Wei didn't know that, he thought he was at home.

"I gonna go see."

Bai Xiangtian turned around and walked out. Bai Li hurriedly said, "I'm going too."

She didn't actually want to go to the gate, she wanted to go to Pingjiang to take a look.

"Hey? Why is Litchi, where is my brother-in-law?"

Bai Wei thought that after he passed the news on, the uncle and Lizhi would immediately tell Jiang Minglang, but he didn't expect that both of them would go to the gate.

"He's not in now."

Jiang Minglang was indeed not at home. He was called away by Li Nan's men before dawn, along with Zhang Shaoda.

In Li Nan's mind, he consciously divided Pengcheng into two parts, east and west. In the past few months, the two sides did not invade each other and lived in peace.

I didn't expect that this balance is about to be broken.

Of course, Li Nan, who was quite ambitious, was unwilling to accept this.

"Two groups of people came yesterday afternoon, one from the west, and the other from..."

Li Nan paused here and looked at Jiang Minglang with an ambiguous look, "Captain Jiang, do you know where the other wave is coming from?"

"Don't beat around the bush."

"The army is coming from Kyoto!"

Jiang Minglang's calm expression finally changed a little. Even Zhang Shaoda couldn't help asking, "Really? Do you know who they are?"

The rest of the words were swallowed by Jiang Minglang's eyes. He almost forgot that the boss has always been wary of Li Nan and there are some things that cannot be revealed to him.

Li Nan glanced at Zhang Shaoda, then at Jiang Minglang, who had regained his composure, and said with a smile, "Captain Jiang, did you expect them to come a long time ago?"

Isn't this nonsense?

They actually arrived much later than Jiang Minglang expected.

Although the end of the world comes suddenly, it is actually not difficult to control. What is difficult to control is the human heart!
Just like in Yunzhou, the first city where the virus broke out, after discovering the zombies in the hospital, the so-called superiors did not think of killing the zombies and alerting the citizens, but instead locked up those who were ordered to deal with the zombies, along with the medical staff and patients who were not infected with the virus.

Wait until the whole city is out of control, then just pack up and leave.

The person who gave them the order in Yunzhou at that time was Yu Chengping, the deputy mayor of Yunzhou.

Jiang Minglang has not forgotten this person, and he is still waiting to avenge his brothers.

Their regiment also belonged to the Kyoto Marine Corps. They thought the north was a little safer. Kyoto would check every city one by one and would arrive here soon.

But I didn’t expect that it would take more than half a year for him to come.

I guess there is a problem with the leadership in Kyoto. To elect a new one, they have to hold meetings one after another, or the parties have to confront each other and support each other.
Thinking of this, Jiang Minglang pulled up a sarcastic smile. He had no expectations for returning.

However, for the sake of his wife, children and their family, he still had to find out some things and deal with some social events. Especially if he wanted to find Yu Chengping, he couldn't do without the help of his former comrades in the team.

"Tell me everything you know."

Jiang Minglang hit Li Nan, "You know my patience is limited, so it's best not to hide anything from me."

"Captain Jiang, we are still friends after all."

"No, let's get down to business."

Li Nan sighed. He was such a proud man, but in the past few months, he had lost all his temper in front of Jiang Minglang.

There is no way, I can only accept it if I can’t beat them.

"The Group from the West"

"Let's talk about Kyoto first."

".Okay, I don't know much about the people coming from Kyoto. I only know that it is a regiment sent by the original Army Field Command. The regiment commander's surname is Wei, and his name is Wei Lichuan. Does Captain Jiang know him?"

How could they not know each other? Before the end of the world, Jiang Minglang was a full regiment commander, and Wei Lichuan had just been transferred to the deputy regiment commander for less than half a year. He was the deputy captain of the 936th Regiment of the Kyoto Field Force. Unlike Jiang Minglang, who graduated from a formal military academy, Wei Lichuan was a conscript who was promoted step by step, so although he was a deputy regiment commander, he was older than Jiang Minglang.

"I know him, just like I know Qiao Fei."

To be precise, I'm not familiar with Qiao Fei yet. After all, we are not in the same team and our levels are different. When we meet normally, we just nod to each other.

However, since he was leading the team, Jiang Minglang had a general idea of the details of this group of people.

"Captain Jiang, since you know them, why don't you go and ask them about their purpose of coming to Pengcheng. Is it for a short inspection or a permanent stay?"

The fields in the greenhouse area have been tidied up by their people. The wheat and rice seeds were exchanged with Jiang Minglang's father-in-law, including some vegetable seeds. Now in their greenhouse area, they look green and golden at a glance.

Although he had ambitions to do bigger and further, he also understood that food was the foundation of life, and nothing could be accomplished without food and water.

Therefore, he is very satisfied now that he can control half of the city.

"Don't ask. They will tell you on their own initiative. Okay, let's go back."

Jiang Minglang thought about it, and then said to Li Nanduo, "My father-in-law said that after the hot weather, there may be a severe cold. You'd better prepare the greenhouse racks. If the cold weather lasts for a long time, we may have to ask you to change the vegetables."

Li Nan's eyes lit up, "Really? Is that what Uncle Bai said?"

He called Bai "Uncle Bai" affectionately, but in fact he had never even seen Bai Xiangtian. But it didn't matter, as he still sounded familiar with him.

"Yes, that's what he said. When the weather gets cold, you just need to make full use of the greenhouse, and you will be controlling the lifeline of the entire Pengcheng."

So organize your people well and farm the land well. Don't be startled when someone comes. Guard your own piece of land well. No one can do anything to you even if they have the ability.

Unexpectedly, just after he finished saying this, that night Li Nan and his men clashed with a force coming from the west, resulting in nearly a hundred casualties, and twenty bags of rice and flour were stolen.

Li Nan was so angry that he almost died.

He was also careless.

In the past six months, everyone has been busy growing crops and vegetables. Although it is tiring, they have no worries about food and drink, and there is no zombie crisis. Some mutated animals have not had time to cause much harm (mainly because they are controlled by Jiang Minglang and others as soon as they appear, which also brings convenience to them).

As a result, everyone gradually got used to this kind of comfortable and peaceful life, and became less vigilant and alert. Even though two groups of people came in the past two days, at most there were more people on patrol, and they were more vigilant, but not vigilant enough. After all, one of the two groups of people was a military, so they would at least bring some deterrence to the other group.

Unexpectedly, not only did he not do that, he even committed robbery on the second night after he arrived.

Damn, don’t you even take a break and observe for a few days?

Li Nan led people to chase after them.

To the north of Pengcheng was a troop led by Wei Lichuan who came from Kyoto. That group of people probably knew about this, so after robbing the things they immediately fled eastwards. Originally, they came all the way from the west and were heading east, with their destination being Ancheng to the east of Pengcheng.

boom! boom! boom!
Seeing that the group was about to escape to the Baiguoyuan where Jiang Minglang and his men were, Li Nan pulled out his gun and fired three shots in a row.

It doesn’t matter if the distance is too far and we can’t hit it, as long as Jiang Minglang can pick it up.

He shot just to wake him up.

Even if we haven't become friends yet, it's okay for us to help each other as neighbors, right?
It was midnight, everything was silent, the sky was gloomy and there was not a single star.

The three gunshots were like thunder, waking up the sleeping people in Yunxi Village and Baiguoyuan.

"What's going on? What was that noise just now?"

"Is it thundering? Why is it so loud?"

"What? Why is it like something exploded?"

Similar sounds were heard throughout Yunxi Village, but everyone suppressed their curiosity, remembered Bai Xiangtian's previous instructions, closed the doors and windows tightly, and stayed still.

A black shadow jumped out from the southeast corner of the village, quickly reached the big iron gate at the entrance of Yunxi Village, and then jumped over the wall and went outside.

Soon Jiang Minglang and Zhang Shaoda also arrived outside the gate.

Bai Li and Cheng Siyun were standing on the third-floor balcony of the Bai family. From where they were, they could see a line of cars gradually approaching them on the road outside Yunxi Village.

Cheng Siyun looked solemn, "Lizhi, who could that be?"

Bai Li shook her head, "I don't know."

It was the middle of the night, there were gunshots, and there were so many cars, it looked weird no matter how you looked at it.

They can't be coming to attack their village, right?
And then fire a gun to wake them up before fighting?

What a brainless person would do such a thing!
"Dump Dump"

At this moment, a series of footsteps suddenly sounded, and before Cheng Siyun could react, a weak figure suddenly threw herself into her arms.

Cheng Siyun was startled, and when she realized that the little body in her arms was shaking violently, she quickly hugged her with her backhand, and stroked the little girl's head and gently comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Youyou, don't be afraid, Auntie is just coming up to take a look, and will go back to sleep in a while."

The little girl was not woken up by the gunshots just now, so she must have been frightened awake by realizing that there was no one around her.

Bai Li looked at her friend with complicated eyes. Ever since she was inexplicably attached to the child, her friend has become more gentle than before. Although she would complain to her from time to time and didn't want to take care of the child, when the little girl followed her closely, she never refused and didn't even show any impatience. She seemed to have gotten used to it gradually.

Yes, Cheng Siyun has now become accustomed to Youyou's dependence, especially at night. She can't sleep if the child doesn't sleep with her.

"Okay, take Youyou back. I don't think those cars are coming towards us. Maybe they are two groups of people."

At this time, at the gate, when Jiang Minglang arrived, Lao Sheng, who had gone to check the situation, had already returned.

"Captain, the five vehicles coming over are not from the same group as the four behind them. The ones that fired just now should be from the rear."

There are two groups of people, and there was a conflict. Should they pass this way?

He blatantly opened fire when he was about to get close to us.
Jiang Minglang guessed the person behind after just a little thought.

"Stop the car in front and don't let any of them go."

As long as Li Nan behaves himself, he is willing to give him this face and help.

So when a car speeding ahead was about to cross a strange green wall, it suddenly stopped as if it was cast under a spell, without even an emergency brake.

The first car stopped for no reason and without even turning on its brake lights, and inevitably the second car slammed into the back of the first car, then the third car slammed into the second car, and so on, until the fifth car slammed into the fourth car.

Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!
After four expected loud crashes, five cars stopped on the road, either horizontally or vertically.

Li Nan, who was in the first car behind them, saw this and grinned, cursing, "You son of a bitch, I'll let you get away!"

When their car approached and stopped, they saw a few people slowly walking out of the darkness.

Li Nan waved to Jiang Minglang who was at the front, "Captain Jiang, thank you."

　good night!
