Chapter 627 The Second Choice, Zhang Rufeng
The rain pattered.
At around five o'clock, the light rain became heavier.
But the sky was no longer so gloomy, and a faint blush began to appear on the horizon.
Li Yu was still resting and sleeping in the Unimog. On a rainy day and the weather was cold, he could only stay in the car.
After another half hour, the rain gradually became lighter.
As time went by, around six o'clock, the sun finally began to slowly emerge from the clouds. The rain had stopped by this time, and there was still rainwater on the ground, sparkling.
Under the sunshine, the dark clouds began to gradually dissipate, turning into pieces of mist, and the outlines of tall buildings in the distance were vaguely revealed. Soon the whole sky became bright and the air after the rain was fresh and pleasant.
"Brother, the rain has stopped. The sun has come out and we can go home." Li Gang excitedly slapped the door of the small room behind the Unimog.
Li Yu got up, put on his clothes and outer riot gear, opened the door, and saw an excited Li Gang.
"I know, let's get ready, we'll set off in half an hour." Li Yu said calmly.
Li Gang rushed out of the Unimog and informed everyone to prepare for departure later.
Li Yu looked at the bright sky, as if to tell people that the future is full of hope.
Canpao found Li Yu from another car with the transcript and recording.
Yesterday, he interrogated until about two o'clock in the middle of the night, because Li Yu didn't give him this thing because he took a rest.
With a tired cannon, he handed the things in his hand to Li Yu, and said, "Brother Yu, the interrogation was conducted yesterday, and the news obtained is similar to what Gao Ru said. It is mainly to supplement some details, please take a look. "
Li Yu took it and didn't check the content immediately. Looking at Da Pao's tired look, he knew that he was interrogating very late.
So he said: "Don't drive today and catch up on some sleep in the car. After you wake up, you should be at the base."
Da Pao was overjoyed when he heard this and did not refuse. He said to Li Yu: "Yeah, then I'll go get something to eat first."
Li Yu waved his hand to let him go.
After Cannon left, Li Yu opened the record book and started to look through it.
After a brief glance, I became more familiar with and understood the situation in the Western Conference.
As he thought before, the people in Orange Island, including the Western League, still don't know about their existence.
In this case, it was a correct decision for them to return to base.
Li Yu closed the book. During the time he just checked, everyone had packed their things and was preparing to return to the Da Zhangshu Base.
"Brother, we are ready, but how will Hai Chao and Gao Ru deal with it?" Li Tie came to Li Yu and asked.
Li Yu was a little hesitant. Haichao and the others had three more people, who were as tall as the four of them.
There are 7 people in total, which is a waste of food to keep.
And killing him would be too cruel.
Fortunately, Li Yu is a cruel person.
So he said to Li Tie: "Except for Haichao and Gao Ru, everyone else should settle it where they are. Gao Ru and Haichao will stay back at the base and see if they can be used later. Let's set off after the settlement is over." .”
Hearing this, Li Tie nodded and said, "Okay, give me two minutes."
Li Yu also got in the car and sat on the sofa in the car.
He looked in the rearview mirror of the car and saw the people lying on the ground. Li Tie stepped forward to check whether they were dead, and finally sprinkled some gasoline on the bodies and lit a fire.
boarding.
"Leave." Li Yu said.
The door is open.
Yang Tianlong learned from his third uncle's method, made a mark on the door, and finally got in the car and left.
A large group of people headed towards the camphor tree base.
There is still some water on the road. The unmaintained road in the last days is full of potholes. On some roads, there is a large puddle.
The tire ran over it, causing small splashes of water.
The ground was slippery, and it was not advisable to drive too fast, so they kept driving at a speed of 70 kilometers per hour to the Dazhangshu base.
The third uncle was at the end, looking at the rearview mirror as if he saw something.
Yang Tianlong, who was in the same car, saw the third uncle's action, and said to the third uncle curiously: "Third uncle, did you find anything behind?"
The third uncle shook his head and said, "No."
"Then what are you looking at?" Yang Tianlong became even more curious when he heard the third uncle said no.
The third uncle smiled and said: "It's okay anyway. Check to see if there is anyone behind and see if there is anything going on behind. Many times, if you look more, you can always find some hidden dangers. Even if you don't find them, it is naturally better."
Yang Tianlong was shocked when he heard what the third uncle said, and learned a lot.
Very cautious, very careful.
In this regard, I feel that Li Yu and the third uncle are somewhat similar.
So he also turned his head and looked behind the car. Although there was nothing there, he always felt a sense of peace of mind when looking at the surrounding environment.
It's better than sleeping in a car.
The vehicle drove slowly, according to their speed, and set off at eight o'clock in the morning.
It should arrive before four o'clock this afternoon.
After the natural disaster, especially the rapid drop in temperature after the high temperature, the road was seriously damaged.
There is a pit almost every ten meters, and there are potholes all the way without stopping.
Although before the end of the world, there were always road maintenance teams on the road repairing the roads, repairing them every year, and they couldn't repair them every year, but at least they were really repairing them.
However, in the last days, no one came to repair the road anymore.
The road ahead will only become increasingly difficult.
After it rained in the morning, the temperature was lower than yesterday.
Even at ten o'clock in the morning, the temperature is still only two or three degrees.
The sun hangs in the sky, there are no white clouds, and the blue sky looks very beautiful.
Li Yu sat by the car window, rolled down the car window a little, lit a cigarette, and puffed.
The development of the base has a long way to go.
They still have a lot to do now, but there is no rush.
In order to be able to return to the base early, they did not stop on the road, did not stop to rest at noon, and had lunch in the car.
Cannon didn't sleep well at the base either. The road conditions were so bad and the bumpy road prevented him from sleeping well.
So he stopped sleeping altogether and chatted with Wang Cheng and others in the car.
After the rain in the morning, the trees and pine needles on the road on both sides outside the car were covered with dewdrops.
These pine trees are the most durable, and even in that extreme weather, many survived.
After a rain, a little vitality was restored.
Galloping all the way.
They are getting closer and closer to the Da Zhangshu base.
Western Conference.
Zhou family.
Since Liu Cunyi approached him last time, Zhou Zhisheng and others began to think about whether they should leave the Western Union with the Liu family.
Now they are still being watched 24 hours by the Gan family. Although it is not as strict as before, whenever the Zhou family goes out, someone will follow behind.
This made the Zhou family very uncomfortable.
This feeling of being guarded at any time, as if there is a knife hanging on the head, which will fall at any time.
Finally on the second day.
After discussing and researching inside the Zhou family for a day, Zhou Zhisheng found the Liu family on behalf of the Zhou family.
Liu's courtyard.
Liu Cunyi looked at Zhou Zhisheng, with a smile on his face, and asked, "Have you thought about it?"
Zhou Zhisheng looked serious, and said to Liu Cunyi: "The biggest problem is how do we leave? Gan Xiong will not let us leave. You should be very clear about this."
Liu Cunyi suppressed the smile on his face and said to Zhou Zhisheng: "Leaving must be very difficult, but I think Gan Xiong is also having a headache for us now.
They don't trust us, and they haven't found a suitable excuse to deal with us, and if they want to fight both of us at the same time, they will definitely have to pay some price.
My idea is that all the industries of our two families, except the existing food, will be given to Gan Xiong. In exchange for the chance for us to leave. "
Zhou Zhisheng heard the words, and said reluctantly: "This, the price paid is too high."
In the Western Union, each family originally had its own industry and hoarded some things.
For example, the Zhang family had a canning factory before, and the Zhou family had a soybean oil factory.
After they chose to join the Western Union, they also moved all the products and equipment of their own factory.
After Liu Cunyi heard Zhou Zhisheng's words, he realized that Liu Cunyi was not reluctant, otherwise he would not have said that he would have to pay such a high price, but directly refused.
So he said: "Compared to our lives, these are not important. Our family also paid, not just your family."
Zhou Zhisheng didn't answer right away, he continued: "You gave me two choices that day, one is that our two families cooperate to build a new base.
Another option is about Zhang Rufeng, which you haven't finished. I want to know what the second option is. "
Liu Cunyi said: "Zhang Rufeng, after he escaped from the pursuit of Ganxiong in the Western League, he went to the ethnic minorities in the next province and joined a force. That force is very powerful. Although they don't have many guns, their side Very stable.”
"You mean Yun Sheng?"
"Yes, it's in the next province."
"But, the road over there is not very easy." Zhou Zhisheng said with a frown.
Originally, they were located in the basin, and if they wanted to go south to Yunnan Province, they had to pass through the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.
"Don't worry, it's not that remote. There are bridges and tunnels along the way, so it's not difficult to walk. The key is whether you want to go or not."
Zhou Zhisheng asked with some doubts: "How do you know this?"
Liu Cunyi showed a look of embarrassment on his face, this matter was related to the most important secret of their Liu family.
So he said heavily: "Sorry, I can't tell you this, but I can guarantee the accuracy of this matter."
Zhou Zhisheng took a deep look at Liu Cunyi, and said quietly: "We want to reach a cooperation, go out together, you are still hiding it like this, how can I trust you."
A struggling look appeared on Liu Cunyi's face, and he said, "Our two families are facing the same situation, I won't lie to you.
Although I can't tell you why we know, I can tell you why we want to find Zhang Rufeng.
After Zhang Rufeng joined that force, he married the daughter of the leader of that force, so he also had a certain say in that force.
Moreover, Zhang Rufeng is always thinking about how to take revenge. You also know the hatred between him and the Gan family, the hatred of annihilation.
He promised us that as long as we join the past, they can provide us with safety, even if Gan Xiong comes to look for him, he can guarantee our safety. "
Zhou Zhisheng was still a little doubtful and looked straight at Liu Cunyi to discern the accuracy of what he said.
After all, this does not involve them alone, it also involves their family members, so they must be cautious.
Liu Cunyi saw Zhou Zhisheng's hesitation, so he said: "Gan Xiong doesn't have much time left for us. You have to hurry up."
After Zhou Zhisheng heard this, he was not in a hurry.
Instead, he asked: "The first option you mentioned is that we leave the Western Conference and build a base ourselves. Where should we go?"
Hearing his words, Liu Cunyi said anxiously: "Why do you have to build a base yourself? What if Gan Xiong sent people to chase us after we left? Don't you think the second way is more suitable for us?"
Zhou Zhisheng shook his head and said, "I don't want to be under someone else's control, lingering on my last breath, and attaching to a new force is not the same. What's the difference between this and staying with Gan Xiong?"
Liu Cunyi said quickly: "Of course it's different. That force is much better than Gan Xiong, you..."
As he spoke, Liu Cunyi stopped.
He said to Zhou Zhisheng: "Anyway, it's OK. As long as I can leave the Western Conference, anything is OK."
Zhou Zhisheng nodded, this is the truth.
It's okay to leave from here first, and then separate later.
Besides, he himself didn't particularly trust the Liu family, but now he just happened to be on the same line, facing the same enemy, forcing them to unite and cooperate.
Liu Cunyi looked at Zhou Zhisheng and said, "Then you should quickly make up your mind whether you want to go together or not. Time waits for no one. If it drags on, we won't be able to leave."
It was obvious that Liu Cunyi was already a little impatient.
Zhou Zhisheng said to Liu Cunyi: "How about this, I will give you an answer tonight. If you take action, when do you think you can take action? What preparations should you make before taking action?"
Liu Cunyi thought for a while and said: "The sooner the better, if possible, we can leave tomorrow."
Zhou Zhisheng hesitated and said, "No, tomorrow is too soon. We need a day to prepare. What about the day after tomorrow?"
"Okay." Liu Cunyi said.
"Then I won't come here tonight. If we are sure to go with you, we will put a red lantern on the roof. If we are not going to leave, we will put a white lantern. You should be able to see it from here." .”
Liu Cunyi thought about it and felt that it made sense.
If they visit too frequently, they will inevitably arouse Gan Xiong's dissatisfaction and vigilance.
So he said: "Prepare all your family's property for Gan Xiong, and when the time comes, you must remember one thing, that is, you must not be bewitched by Gan Xiong. Once one of our two families is not firm, it will cause trouble." serious consequence.
If you stay and we leave, then Gan Xiong will definitely not let us go. You won't be able to handle us if the time comes. You need to know this clearly. "
Liu Cunyi said solemnly to Zhou Zhisheng.
Zhou Zhisheng nodded and said: "Don't worry, our two families are like grasshoppers on the same rope. I understand the truth of dying and losing teeth."
Liu Cunyi felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
I'm not afraid that he won't agree now, but I'm afraid that Zhou Zhisheng won't understand this and will betray him on the spot, and both families will be ruined by then.
Zhou Zhisheng looked at Liu Cunyi, and then said, "Okay, that's it for now. I'll give you an answer tonight."
"Okay, let's go slowly without seeing you off."
Zhou Zhisheng slowly walked out of the door. As soon as he went out, he saw three people standing diagonally opposite, looking at him.
Zhou Zhisheng didn't look at them, pretending as if nothing had happened, and walked to his area.
