I give the world destruction and rebirth

"Where are you from? Why do you have so much food? Didn't anyone rob you? Didn't you meet any predators? Where did your car come from? Why do you have so many guns?" said the co-pilot and the back seat Having three more children in the car was like having 10,000 ducks in the car. Tang Ji's little love for the children was exhausted in just three kilometers of road.

"Shut up!" The more sensitive sister in the passenger seat had been observing Tang Ji's face, and finally scolded him. The eldest sister's majesty instantly overwhelmed the lively nature of the twins in the back seat, and the two little boys immediately hugged each other. Together, each covered the other's mouth to prevent the other from speaking.

"Our home is right in front, and you will see the wall soon." The girl pointed the way silently, but looking left and right with her eyes, it was obvious that she was not as calm as she appeared. For example, right now, she was secretly thinking A grenade that fell in the space of the co-pilot took it as his trophy and hid it in his pocket.

Tang Ji just smiled and acquiesced to the girl's theft. He was indeed more tolerant of the child.

The home the girl refers to refers to a community of survivors. In terms of scale, it is at least a little more developed than the camp of the Sailors' Home, but it looks a bit dilapidated now. It is obvious that they just experienced a bloody battle not long ago.

On the fence made of container siding and broken masonry, there was a gap blocked by trucks. On the sentry tower with a simple bunker, the guard with a gun had obviously seen Tang Ji's car early. At this time, there was an update. Many guards climbed onto the crude city wall.

"Let me negotiate. We just experienced an attack. They will shoot." Before the girl could finish her words, the guards on the city wall had already opened fire. The bullet hit the windshield and then bounced away. The vehicle is fitted with bulletproof glass from the Moongold.

Judging from the decisiveness of the opponent's shooting, Tang Ji felt that their weapons reserve should be much stronger than that of the Sailor's Home. After all, although Rick and the others were wandering around with guns all the time, they almost never fired.

Tang Ji stepped on the brakes and parked the car in an open space less than a hundred meters away from the camp. He opened the car door directly, looked up at the sun in the sky, leaned on the car and lit a cigarette for himself, waiting for the girl. Negotiate with the guards.

The girl kicked the car door open and finally got out of the car. The thickened and armored car door was still a bit too heavy for a child of her age. She first waved her hand towards the city wall from a distance, then climbed up After getting into the car, he took out his two younger brothers from the space between the driver's and passenger's seats.

The two little boys, like their older sister, packed their pockets full of bullets in the back seat. When they landed, there was a clatter, full of bullets.

The girl patted her two brothers on the head with satisfaction and led them towards the city wall.

The three figures passing by were struggling to move forward under the sun. As a result, one of the two twins suddenly tore open due to the poor quality of his clothes pocket, and the bullet leaked all over the floor. The little boy glanced at Tang nervously. Ji, then quickly dropped the bullet into his arms and chased after him, pretending that nothing happened.

Tang Ji smiled and pretended not to see this scene.

He watched the children slip into the camp through a small door. A few minutes later, the truck at the entrance of the camp started up and slowly moved away to make way for a road. Then a man on horseback came out of the camp. He appeared in the gap, put the gun diagonally across his back, ran to a place twenty meters away from Tang Ji, and threw a bag full of bullets on the ground.

"Hello, stranger, thank you for sending the children back. The children were ignorant and took some souvenirs from you." The man's eyes swept over Tang Ji's brand new windbreaker and the cigarette with a holder at the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't help but He licked his lips: "This is the town of Holmes. I wonder if you are passing by or have another purpose?"

"If you happen to have oil here, I am willing to make a deal. If not, then I am a kind person who happens to be passing by." Tang Ji got into the car and threw the scraps left by the three children on the ground: "I He is the captain of the Moongold, coming from the outer sea. Captain Geraint of the Seamen’s Home and I have restored the area near the port. If you have time, you can go there and do some business. We welcome all normal people.”

When he heard about the Seafarers' Home and Captain Geraint, the man was obviously relieved. Apparently, the name of the Seafarers' Home was still somewhat famous in this land.

Seeing Tang Ji getting into the car and about to start it, the man finally shouted: "Wait, friend! Since we are all here, why not come to the camp as a guest and drink a glass of water? Although we don't have much fuel, it is enough Fill up your car.”

Tang Ji stretched out his hand from the car window and made a shooting gesture towards the other party. Upon seeing this, the other party immediately stepped forward, used a beautiful equestrian movement to pick up the bag of bullets and the mushrooms picked up by the children from the ground, turned around and led the way. Entered the town.

When Tang Ji drove in, the truck blocked the gap tightly. Tang Ji looked at the entire camp. It should have been a highway toll station or something like that. The only brick and stone house had been destroyed. Half buried by wind and sand, a section of the overpass bridge deck more than ten meters long behind the simple city wall relied on the bridge piers to form a leeward slope, forming the main body of the entire defensive wall.

At this time, the three children were standing behind the wall with their lips pouted. They were obviously very unhappy that their gains were taken away by adults.

"My name is Lip Hopson. I am the son of the mayor and the police chief here." The man on horseback turned over and dismounted with very neat movements. Tangji also stopped the car and walked out of the car.

Lip looks to be in his early thirties, wearing a plaid shirt, a worn-out cowboy hat, a pair of sunglasses on his collar, and a police badge he found on his chest that he didn't know where, in the sun. It's sparkling, obviously it's been wiped frequently.

"My name is Tang Ji. I'm looking for the raiders' camp." Tang Ji said, opening the trunk and taking out an empty oil barrel and throwing it on the ground: "One barrel of oil, one hundred bullets." , pistol bullets, and rifle bullets are all acceptable.”

This price is the going rate at the Sailor's Home. Tang Ji looked at the children again and asked, "What happened to them? I found them three kilometers away from here."

"I guess they sneaked out to look for the supplies left by their parents." Lip looked a little unhappy, but in the end he explained calmly: "We have a mushroom growing camp over there, and it was plundered a while ago. The militants attacked and they captured a dozen of our farmers, including their parents."

Lip took a look at the two buckets of more than half-sprinkled mushrooms hanging on the horse's back, and threw the small buckets at the feet of the children with some annoyance. Later, several women came and took the children away. .

"I'm kidding you, Holmes can't support several children." Lip stepped forward, handed the bag of bullets to Tang Ji, and picked up the oil drum from the ground: "As for the fuel , just think of it as your reward for bringing the child back, we used to have a gas station here, and there is still some remaining reserves in the underground oil depot."

"You just said that you were looking for the raiders' camp?" Lip handed the oil barrel to the others, made an invitation gesture to Tang Ji, frowned and asked, "Why? I mean you look really good. It’s awesome, but you only have one person, and those raiders have hundreds of them, and they control all the territory nearby.”

"I can handle it." Tang Ji took out the cigarette case again and gave one to the other party. After lighting it for himself, he also threw the lighter to the other party: "I heard that they are digging an arsenal. I want to know. How are they progressing?"

"Ahem!" Lip smoked a cigarette and coughed hard a few times before he regained his composure: "Hell, the last time I smoked this thing, I was still twelve years old. It was my dad's collection. For that A cigarette, he almost beat me to death when he opened it."

"Speaking of the arsenal, there are indeed rumors that they are looking for a military base. They have been searching for slaves during this period, and we were attacked because of this." Lip took Tang Ji into the largest warehouse in the town. Building interior.

Judging from the remaining signboard, this place used to be a road restaurant, the lowest kind, but because of the protection of the broken bridge, it is now one of the best-preserved buildings in this town.

"Daisy! Bring me and our guests something to eat, anything but mushrooms!" Lip shouted as soon as he walked in, his tone obviously full of resentment towards mushrooms.

"Besides mushrooms, there is only gray corn. What kind do you eat?" The woman named Daisy looked to be in her early forties, with a capable face and no hint of arrogance.

"Okay, then let's make mushroom corn soup, and add more salt!" Lip looked at Tang Ji's physique: "Two portions! Let's serve this friend three or five tortillas!"

"Daisy is the best cook in town. Trust me, even those gray garbage can cook well." Lip boasted: "Especially the mushrooms."

"Do you know where those predators are?" Tangji asked, looking into Lip's eyes. Obviously, the other party did know.

"I can't watch you die. There are hundreds of them." Lip sighed: "I'm doing this for your own good, friend."

"Are you cooperating?" Tang Ji was not a novice, he just slept for a long time, and he understood the key after just a little thought.

"It's not cooperation, it's just money to buy safety. We provide food, and they promise not to harass us." Lip sighed again: "Otherwise, what else can we do? There are only twenty of us who can fight and dare to fight. men, and there were hundreds of people on the other side.”

"But you said before that they attacked your mushroom farm and arrested many people." Tang Ji looked at the police badge on the other person's chest playfully. He kept looking at the other person and pulled the badge off and put it in his pants pocket. inside.

"At least they are still alive. I saw that they are all still alive. Kaio said that he would put them back after the work is done. What else can I do?" Lip replied with some annoyance: "This is not a secret deal. This is This is how all the nearby survivor camps survive.”

"What if they really dug into that military base and got the weapons they wanted." Tang Ji asked again.

"Then they must have someone to grow food." Lip's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally said: "I don't know if you and Captain Geraint really know each other, but my father and the others have resisted Captain Geraint once before. Oh, you saw it too, now Holmes is in charge of me, and Captain Geraint doesn’t even dare to go inland.”

"Tell me the location, I don't need any other help, just oil is enough." As Tang Ji spoke, the chef named Daisy had already brought up the dishes Lip ordered. Just as Lip boasted, she cooked The mushroom corn soup is at least palatable to drink, and is more than a star and a half better than the chef at the Seamen's Home.

As for tortillas, Tang Ji feels that unless addictive compounds are added to them, no one can make this kind of greasy food into a delicacy.

"Well, you are a stubborn person. I hope you are really as strong as you look." Lip turned and walked out of the restaurant. After a while, he took back a map, a hand-drawn map, a map that Apocalypse would hand-draw in the future.

"This is Homs, and this should be the port you mentioned." Lip pointed out the two locations: "And here is where the looters are digging now. There are about five hundred slaves there. The work inside included the manpower of seven or eight nearby survivor groups, and we had to work hard to hand over food to ensure that the hungry predators would not use these people as food reserves."

"As for Kaio, his hometown is here." Lip pointed at a place less than a hundred kilometers away from Homs: "That place used to be an industrial area, and Kaio's people were entrenched there."

"Very good, is there anything else I need to pay attention to?" Tang Ji looked at the map carefully and finally memorized the route.

Hearing Tang Ji's question, Lip hesitated and said, "Kaio's people have set off a few days ago to go deeper into the wasteland to contact other raider forces. My people met one of their envoys on the road."

What will happen if a patrol in the survivor camp encounters an emissary from the marauders? Judging from Lip's reaction, it was obvious that the predator now had no chance to complete his mission.

"I don't know how many people he sent, but if you only have one person, we can't risk helping you." Lip finally said, his tone full of hesitation and regret: "I can't, I have to ensure the safety of other people in the town first. Safety."

"It doesn't matter, I didn't need it." Tang Ji finished eating and drinking, leaving five bullets as meal money, turned around and walked out of the small restaurant.

Lip opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end nothing came out.

"Lipp, you idiot, what he said is true, he doesn't need your help." Chef Daisy looked at Tang Ji's back with excitement, like a fan who saw her idol: "Then what the hell? Tang Ji! You little brats have no idea what kind of legend that is!"
