Chapter 104
Wen Yan has never thought that her qualifications are omnipotent, which can be seen from her life. She doesn't rely too much on the ability of a qualified person. Most of the time, Zhang Cishun mentions some needs and she uses her ability to get answers.
Nowadays, there is something that already exists, but she cannot understand, and she is not surprised.
The night is long.
But after leaving the city, there were no more surprises and disturbances.
I waited calmly until dawn.
When the sunrise from the east shines on the earth, the warmth from the sun allows all those who have been frozen all night to stretch their bodies slightly to receive more sunlight.
It didn't take long for the people in the car to wake up. After both parties had breakfast, when the sun reached directly overhead, they began to change shifts.
The people in the car flipped onto the roof of the car, and the people on the roof got down to the car to rest. Everyone's movements were very skillful, and it was obvious that this was a normal part of living in the wilderness for them.
The head popped out of the car again, but Zhang Cishun was the first to notice her, reached out and pressed her head, pushing her back into the car.
"You two, go down." Zhang Cishun said.
Wen Yan nodded, but Jing Shuo didn't move.
"Two for two, the two of us take the place of Jing Yan. You are the extra one. You can go down." Jing Shuo said.
Zhang Cishun thought for a while and said nothing.
Jing Shuo couldn't see what was in the car, but Zhang Cishun could sense it. Because you and Jing Yan both had his nano-robots on them, he would hide his eyes from time to time and use his core ability to check their status in the car throughout the night, and the two of them almost fell asleep holding each other in each other's arms.
In addition, both of them are not big, especially Jing Yan, so one plus one, at this time, really does not equal two.
In terms of size, the two of them are at most a few tenths plus a few tenths, barely equal to one. This was also a decision Zhang Cishun made after careful consideration and combined with the number of people on the roof.
Wen Yan looked at Jing Shuo and then at Zhang Cishun.
She smacked her lips: "Okay..."
So, she started to follow, and quickly got close to the other two people in the car.
At this time, someone asked Zhang Cishun why he didn't get out. Zhang Cishun said there were children in the car. After hearing this, the other party thought for a while, remembered something, and gave Zhang Cishun a thumbs up with a hint of admiration, then stopped talking.
Then he watched the other party put the clothes on his body, but retracted his arms into the clothes, leaving two bare sleeves, and then secretly tied the sleeves to the guardrail to make a simple safety device.
Zhang Cishun almost watched the other party finish all this. Only when he finished did he notice Zhang Cishun's eyes. So he grinned and said, "I'm timid...I'm afraid of flying out."
"Understood."
Zhang Cishun and Jing Shuo changed places. Now he was sitting on the outside, taking the strongest wind. The clothes whistled, but where no one could see, Zhang Cishun controlled the nanorobot to connect to the car on himself and Jing Shuo.
After that, the two of them narrowed their eyes and entered the stage of taking a nap from time to time.
This is a very painful process, but Zhang Cishun and Jing Shuo can still accept it. The two of them came out of Xiacheng District and have endured all kinds of hardships. Even in terms of the type of suffering, Zhang Cishun is not as good as Jing Shuo. sparkle.
Nearly ten days passed in a row.
Jing Shuo almost lost the sense of time. Because the two of them have been in a semi-trance state for these ten days. Some sleep, but not well. Just like when Zhang Cishun was a child, he closed and opened his eyes in class, and a class passed. Close and open again, and a day has passed.
At the beginning, they were still worried about whether something unexpected would happen, but as time went by, this feeling of worry disappeared without a trace.
How should I put it? Garbage trucks are indeed the public transportation in the wilderness.
In the early morning of the tenth day, Wen Yan stuck his head out of the car and sat on the window frame, supporting his body and raising his head. The hood on her head was blown by the wind, covering half of her face. Only half of his face, which was slightly haggard, was revealed.
I have to say that Wen Yan's skin is really good. Zhang Cishun didn't pay attention before, but now it's hard not to pay attention.
"What rude things are you thinking about?" Wen Yan narrowed his eyes with a dangerous look.
Zhang Cishun laughed, looked up at the position of the sun, then withdrew his gaze and continued to look at Wen Yan.
"What's going on?"
After spending ten days together in the team, he finally understood some of the team's rules. The shift change time is always at noon, and lunch will be distributed ten minutes after the shift change. Dinner is still replenished at sunset. As for what to eat every day, it all depends on what is in the car.
However, the distribution of materials is planned, and there will be no over or under distribution.
On the third day, instructions came from the lead car one after another, so the people in the car began to distribute tasks, including sewing and repairing, and loading ammunition. In short, the main focus was on miscellaneous tasks.
But these jobs are not difficult. In Zhang Cishun's view, this stuff is just for passing time. But with a bunch of people sitting on the roof of a car doing these tasks, there is always a strange feeling of a sudden change in the painting style. It’s hard to imagine a big boss using an embroidery needle to mend damaged clothes.
"City No. 114 is coming." Wen Yan said bluntly, regardless of Zhang Cishun's offense just now.
"City 114? Is there a problem?"
"I don't know if there is a problem, but I have learned from various sources that the route of the garbage truck in this direction should not go directly from City 88 to No. 114. City. So it is certain that it changed direction for some reason, but I don’t know the specific reason, but I am sure it was the independent choice of the garbage truck." Wen Yan said.
The reason why she dared to use the independent choice of garbage trucks as an excuse was obviously because there was no way to get relevant information from other sources, so by contacting the source, she knew where the problem came from.
Zhang Cishun also knew this.
"What was the original path?" he asked.
"Haiti No. 97, No. 98, and Mountain No. 43 have all been skipped." Wen Yan said.
Ninety-seven, ninety-eight, forty-three... Zhang Cishun had a toothache for a moment. There is only one thing wrong with the numbered city, and it is difficult for Zhang Cishun to have a sense of involvement. At least there is no way to compare it with the city of the past.
I only know that it is in the north, but the north is much bigger... but Haiti... the northeastern region? No, not necessarily.
City No. 88 did not record the original city name, topography, and landforms, and Kumar had no such knowledge in his memory.
"The problem we just discovered today?" Zhang Cishun asked.
Wen Yan thought for a while, "The problem was discovered today, but the change of path was not made today, but seven days ago. I have never thought about this issue, so I didn't get... that." Wen Yan put his hand on his I compared it mentally.
"If Jing Yan hadn't asked me when I would get off the bus, I probably wouldn't have thought about it," she said. Zhang Cishun nodded and asked, "Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?"
"It's not bad. Of course, this is just my feeling. It's up to you how to think about it. After all, you are the nominal captain." Wen Yan said.
Zhang Cishun didn't answer, but stretched out his hand to push her back into the car. Just like before.
They already knew the problem when Jing Yan woke up. After all, the first words she said when she woke up were friends.
Still holding her and saying it again.
At that time, Jing Shuo sensed that something was wrong, and immediately activated his qualified ability and used the enhanced power to suppress Jing Yan's power. The exchange of abilities here was brief and rapid, and the instantaneous change enveloped almost everyone, but it came and went quickly. At most, everyone felt that they suddenly panicked just now... Jing Shuo's qualified ability has been strengthened, and Jing Yan
has The qualified person's ability is almost overwhelming. Maybe Jing Yan doesn't like this feeling of being suppressed. He has been awkwardly squirming in Wen Yan's arms for several days.
Later, I don't know what Wen Yan said to her. She finally settled down and stopped making troubles. However, when she had time or no time, she quietly used her abilities to call her brother and sister. But every time he would be quickly suppressed by Jing Shuo.
After a long time, Xiao Nizi didn't know if she regarded this as a game. Every time Jing Shuo suppressed her ability, she no longer got angry, but giggled happily.
But compared to Jing Yan, Jing Shuo had a lot of headaches. The life of the car roof was not easy in the first place, and with Xiao Nizi making trouble from time to time, Jing Shuo really felt that it was a big deal that Zuo Yan didn't refuse Zuo Yan to let them take Jing Yan with them when they were in City No. 88. mistake.
In the past ten days, Jing Shuo has obviously matured a lot. At least I learned the truth that happiness and anger cannot be expressed through color. This is a rare asset for a man of his age. Although as far as Jing Shuo is concerned, he probably doesn't want this incredible wealth.
"One hundred and fourteen, it's the city where motorcades gather in winter." Jing Shuo remembered this number: "I think it's not a bad thing. We've arrived just in time and we can take a break." I couldn't stand it, really
. Can't stand it. I can’t even stand it when Superman comes.
Zhang Cishun saw through it without saying anything and nodded along with his words.
The speed reduction started after noon.
Jing Shuo discovered the abnormality first, and then Zhang Cishun also discovered it. There was no change of position at noon, and everyone in the car woke up and started organizing supplies. The lead truck sent an order to inform the people in the convoy that the Yunqi convoy would decouple from the vehicle when the garbage truck was parked. Then it was repaired in City No. 114.
The other people in the car were surprised for a moment when they saw this order. They were all chattering and asking each other why the next stop after City No. 88 was No. 114. But no one could get an accurate answer, and then everyone just left it alone.
When the garbage truck slows down to a certain area, the vehicle's power wheels and mechanical unit return to their original positions to work. When the garbage truck officially stopped in City 114, all the vehicles in the fleet were ready to brake. Coupled with the anti-collision measures that had been prepared long ago, even if two vehicles or even multiple vehicles collided, there would be no accident. Unbearable losses occur.
"This is...114!"
Jing Shuo stood up from the parked car and looked up at the city.
This is a completely different city from City 88. The biggest difference is... there are no high walls.
No! Maybe it's not nothing, it should be... demolished. Perhaps it was demolished by the people of City 114, or perhaps it was destroyed for other reasons. In short, City 114 does not have a high wall to separate the inside and outside.
They stood on the car and looked far away, and could see the compact high-rise buildings in City No. 114.
This is a very strange architectural structure in Zhang Cishun's opinion. The entire building is black, reflecting a metallic luster in the sunlight. And it is not the square style of ordinary high-rise buildings, but a hexagonal structure similar to a honeycomb. The distance between each hexagonal high-rise building is not that big, at least in Zhang Cishun's view, there is no way to pass the Hummer of Yunqi Team. Even some mobility scooters for the elderly that he remembered were unable to move.
A slightly exaggerated fat person may feel a little crowded walking on this road.
"Why do I feel like this city...is not normal?" Jing Shuo said.
Zhang Cishun looked away from the metal sign hanging in front of the 'Zheng Road' - the urban structure.
Yes, the description just now is almost as seen from this city structure map.
After all, looking directly at the city from their direction, all they saw was an opaque wall with gaps in the passage.
"It's okay if it's not normal. Normal cities may not be able to survive in this world." Zhang Cishun said. After speaking, he turned to Wen Yan and said, "Look now, is there any danger?" Wen Yan looked up
. With this city. The sun shines obliquely over the city, but it only illuminates part of it, leaving more in shadow.
"Not yet, but the danger may also come from the future, from our choices and actions..."
"Understood, let's go to the city and have a look." Zhang Cishun watched as several people from other convoys safely walked into the city and disappeared. Missing, he said.
"Uh, aren't you going to follow the convoy?" he said again. She held Jing Yan in her hand, while Jing Yan's eyes were on City 114.
"Go in and take a look first."
Zhang Cishun set off and led a few people to follow the large army.
The wind was very light today, which was a good thing for Zhang Cishun. As he moved forward, countless tiny nanorobots flew out and began to spread.
Zhang Cishun pulled the hood with his right hand so that the upper part of the hood completely covered the upper half of his face and his eyes.
suddenly!
Zhang Cishun stopped.
An inexplicable feeling like being scanned by something flashed through me.
"You...feel something?" he asked.
But the answer was all negative.
"Is it an illusion?" Zhang Cishun frowned. He didn't think it was his illusion. He was more likely to think that there was something he had overlooked.
But... what is it?
He couldn't say anything for a moment, so he subconsciously opened the panel and looked at it.
