Chapter 757 Return [Two Chapters Combined Into One Chapter, Please Vote]

It was 4:30 in the evening.

It had been nearly two hours since Li Yu and others left the Western Alliance.

The vehicles were towed, and the ground was still a little slippery, so the road was not easy to drive. The convoy drove for nearly two hours and only traveled less than 100 kilometers.

But at least, they had left the territory of Cheng City. After the end of the world, Cheng City once became one of the cities with the most zombies.

In the end of the world, almost everyone can drive. There are no traffic rules and concerns, and most of them are automatic, so driving becomes a very simple thing.

You just need to learn how to start the ignition, brake, step on the accelerator, run a few more laps, and hit a few more times to become proficient. Anyway, you don’t care about the appearance...

Li Yu drove the Unimog in the front. On the G5013 highway, you can still see water stains on the ground.

Dapao and others followed closely behind. In the car, everyone chatted while driving the vehicle.

"Brother Yu, where to camp tonight, I just looked at the map. There is a Liujia village 20 kilometers away. Maybe we can camp there tonight." The sound of the cannon came from the intercom.

Li Yu controlled the vehicle with his left hand, and opened the iPad hanging in the middle with his right hand. He entered Liujia village, checked and estimated that it would take about half an hour to get there.

So he said: "Okay, let's go and have a look."

Everyone chatted on the intercom while driving the vehicle. Half an hour passed unknowingly.

Soon, they drove the vehicle to the ramp, but when they got off the ramp, Li Yu opened the map and looked at the criss-crossing high-speed hub not far ahead, at least 30 meters from the ground.

Li Yu thought for a while and said: "Liujia village is just after the ramp, but I see that there are more residential buildings below, and there must be more zombies. I think it's better to camp on the viaduct in front."

This is not the first time they have chosen to camp on the viaduct.

There are several advantages to camping on the viaduct.

The first is that it is relatively high from the ground, with only a few load-bearing columns in the middle. Even if it rains, zombies cannot climb up and can only walk over from both sides of the highway.

Second, the intersection on the viaduct is relatively narrow. Even if zombies come at night, they only need to face the zombies at the intersections on both sides. If it rains, they can even use C4 bombs to blow up the intersection on one side.

Moreover, the high-speed hubs here are crisscrossed, giving them more buffer space.

If it doesn't rain, before the night comes, they only need to block the intersection with some scrapped vehicles on the highway, and they can rest assured.

Li Yu's proposal won the approval of Li Tie and others. In the end, they did not choose to go down the ramp to Liujia Village, but continued to go forward to the viaduct hub.

Ten minutes later, they arrived at the top of the viaduct.

The highest point of the viaduct is more than 30 meters above the ground. Li Yu opened the car door, got out of the car, looked around, and found no zombies, so he took off his helmet and breathed heavily.

Although wearing a full-cover helmet can protect the entire head, it is easy to feel stuffy if worn for a long time.

The dim sunset in the evening shines on the empty residential building, the peeling wall, the plants growing on the wall, a gust of wind blows, and the broken iron door makes a creaking sound, giving people an uncontrollable sense of desolation.

In the other direction of the viaduct is the green belt, which is very large and now has lush vegetation.

Da Pao and others also got off the car. After seeing them get off the car, Li Yu said to Da Pao and Li Gang: "Da Pao, Gangzi, go to both sides and move those scrapped vehicles to block the front and back roads."

After hearing Li Yu's order, the two got off the car, untied the towing rope of the car towed behind, and drove a car over.

After all, those scrapped vehicles would definitely be difficult to push with manpower, and they could only use the existing cars to tow them, especially some larger cars.

Yang Tianlong and Li Tie also went to help, while Li Yu put the drone in the sky and controlled it to circle around twice.

About 400 meters away from them, there was a lake, but there were no animals in the lake. In the end times, the birds seemed to have known the dangers in the lakes and rivers, and they were extremely cautious every time they drank water.

After dusk, the sky darkened faster and faster as time went by.

40 minutes later, half of the sun in the sky was below the mountain, and it was about to set.

Now it is early summer, and the sun sets later than before.

"Okay." Da Pao and Li Tie came over and said to Li Yu, sweating profusely.

Li Yu glanced at them and said, "Okay, let's eat something. Let's rest early today and set off early tomorrow."

After that, he continued to look at the drone screen in his hand and controlled the drone to fly back to the viaduct.

A few minutes later, accompanied by the buzzing sound of drones in the sky, Yang Tianlong and Li Gang also blocked the vehicles on the north side.

This is not the first time they have done this, so they have some experience.

On the viaduct, obstacles should be set up, and scrapped vehicles on the road should be used according to local conditions. First of all, some cars can be towed a hundred meters away, which is also relatively easy. It is best to get a few more cars so that there will be more rounds of protection.

Then find a few larger cars and tow them to a position close to them, and finally the vehicles they drive themselves.

Everyone has been busy today. Li Yu gave Li Tie another drone on the Unimog, so that he would not have to get out of the car.

The five people sat in the car and turned on the air conditioner in the car to blow away the hot air during the day. They all ate their dinner slowly while watching the sun set outside the window. After the sun set, it became dark faster. .

At 6:45, it gets dark.

Hearing the roars of zombies on the right, Li Yu glanced at the screen of the drone. After turning on the night mode, he could see the situation on both sides of the road a little more clearly.

The five people still arranged a shift, and each person was on duty for two and a half hours, a total of twelve hours. By seven o'clock tomorrow, it would be almost dawn.

Close the car windows, leaving only two small gaps for ventilation.

The night was not quiet. Li Yu took off his helmet and lay on the bed of the Unimog to rest.

Li Tie and others did not get on the Unimog, but slept in their own cars.

Generally, there will be a small sleeping area in the front of a truck.

The evening breeze is blowing and it won't rain tonight.

In the middle of the night, although some zombies arrived at the viaduct, they were unable to pass through the obstruction formed by the scrapped vehicles placed by Cannon and others in the evening.

Nothing happened all night.

After a good night's rest, everyone finally recovered.

Early in the morning, they started the vehicle and returned to the Da Zhangshu base.

Returning like an arrow.

Back and forth, it has been ten days since we left Da Zhangshu Base, and it will take at least three days to get back.

They returned home with a full load, but due to the long journey, they did not dare to relax their vigilance easily and were always in a state of combat.

Big camphor tree base.

Uncle San took Ant and others back and forth from Guang City twice, without a break, and returned to the Zhangshu base again on this day.

Inner city, villa area.

On the steps outside the downstairs of the villa, the second uncle and the third uncle were sitting side by side.

"Third brother, there were no accidents in the past two times, right?" The second uncle said to the third uncle while chewing on the corn cob.

The third uncle stretched out and said lazily: "Nothing happened, everything went smoothly. I think one more trip will be enough to pull out all the remaining steel."

The second uncle nodded and was silent for a long time. Then he suddenly stopped and said to the third uncle:

"Hey, I wonder what's going on with Xiaoyu over there. In the blink of an eye, they've been gone for ten days. Counting the time, they should be back soon."

Third uncle said:

"It's almost the same. The time set by Xiaoyu is up to half a month. With Xiaoyu's character, he should not have any accidents if he is so stable. Don't worry."

It can be said that although the second uncle is not very good at fighting, he is the most worried person in the base.

Not only must he manage various internal affairs of the base and maintain the normal operation of the base, but he must also monitor the construction progress of the third outer city and coordinate internal and external personnel.

"When Xiaoyu comes back, half of the wall of the Third Outer City should be built. It is now twelve meters high. Speaking of this, the old Dong made the electric and hydraulic device, and Ding Jiu and the others reported that it was quite good. Very useful, this is quite a talent.”

The second uncle said with a smile on his face.

The third uncle didn’t understand this either, so he echoed:

"I don't know much about this aspect. I've met that old director a few times. I personally feel that he has a good temperament and is capable. It's about time we let him know about the existence of zombie generators. Maybe after he knows this , which can prompt him to research something new and useful to the base.”

The second uncle pondered for a long time, thought about it and said:

"Anyway, if Xiaoyu comes back, it will only be a few days. There is a ban on the zombie generator. It cannot be leaked without permission. Do you want to tell Lao Dong about the existence of the zombie generator, or wait until Xiaoyu comes back, let's work together It would be better to discuss and negotiate.

His opinion is more important. "

The third uncle nodded, and he also recognized what the second brother said.

Unconsciously, they have become accustomed to handling some major matters and will obey Li Yu's arrangements.

The second uncle and the third uncle chatted for a long time, and finally got up and went about their own business.

On the construction site of the Third Outer City.

Ding Jiu, Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu and others have been staying in the sun and have tanned a lot these days.

With the cooperation of many collaborators and non-staff personnel, after these days of running-in, the efficiency has gradually been greatly improved, and the construction speed of the third outer city wall has become faster and faster.

The walls in the third outer city look almost the same every day and are being built at an extremely fast speed.

The third uncle only rested for one day at the base before embarking on the road to the Guangshi Steel Plant again.

Xiao Jun, Guo Peng, Zhu Xiao and others who were accompanying them were busy and happy. They knew that when all the steel was transported back this time, their testing period would also have results.

If there are no accidents, it is very likely that they will advance from the status of non-staff personnel to the status of personnel from the outer city.

These days, they are in the car every day, driving when they wake up, and guarding against zombies at night. Their nerves are always tense, which makes them very tired.

The third day that Uncle San and the others left.

Li Yu and others kept going all the way from Chengshi. Finally, four days later, they crossed into Ganshi and contacted their second uncle and others.

After Lao Luo, who was on patrol outside, heard the news about Li Yu, he took about ten people to respond.

Huichang County under Gan City.

Lao Luo contacted Li Yu with a walkie-talkie: "Mr. Li, we have arrived at the First Square in Huichang County. Where are you now? We will come to find you."

After hearing Lao Luo's voice, Li Yu replied: "Ten minutes, I'll be there soon."

After they left the Western Alliance, they didn't stop on the road. Fortunately, they didn't encounter any accidents or robbers on the way.

It didn't rain again, so they arrived in Ganshi smoothly.

Lao Luo hasn't seen Li Yu for a while. When he was in Luo Tianyan, he met Li Yu for the first time and he was very impressed by Li Yu.

Followed by Xiao Shi, they joined the Da Zhangshu Base. He felt that this was the most correct decision he had ever made.

In the Da Zhangshu base, at least he had no worries about food and clothing. Seeing the prosperity of the Da Zhangshu base, he felt happy from the bottom of his heart.

More importantly, Li Yu, as the core soul of Da Zhangshu Base, always rushes to the front when encountering problems. This practical deed makes him admire him even more.

ten minutes later.

Following a tremor on the ground, Lao Luo and others stared at the approaching vehicle with wide eyes.

There were ten cars in total, but five of them were driving them.

There were five vehicles, each with a truck or van towed behind them. Looking at the trucks covered with tarps, it looked like they had gained a lot.

Ga——

There was an unpleasant sound of braking.

Li Yu got out of the car and waved to Lao Luo, who was about ten meters away: "Lao Luo, here are a few people to help drive."

Lao Luo quickly said to the team members around him: "Go over and help."

Then he led his team members to greet him.

"How was this trip?" Lao Luo said to Li Yu with a smile on his face.

Li Yu looked a little tired. It took several days to travel back and forth, and the road was uneven. They were almost vomiting after driving for more than ten hours every day.

Now Li Yu just wants to have a good sleep and then wake up to eat and drink.

Not only him, Cannon and the others have lost their temper these days. Sometimes when a tire blows out on the road, they have to stop the car and take out the jack to change the tire.

But fortunately, apart from tire punctures and some minor malfunctions, the vehicle did not have any other major problems, and we came back without incident.

"It's okay. There's no big problem. Lao Luo. In this way, Tiezi and the others behind have been driving for several days. Five people will come over and help us drive. We'll go back to the base first. By the way, you'll be here later. My car, help me drive.”

Li Yu finished speaking in one breath, then got into the car and sat in the passenger seat.

Lao Luo saw the tiredness on Li Yu's face and knew that Li Yu and the others were working very hard these days, so without asking anything else, he asked a few team members to help Li Tie and the others drive, while the rest took the car they drove over. go back.

Li Yu sat in the passenger seat, unscrewed the bottle and took a sip of water.

Watching Lao Luo get into the car, Li Yu closed his eyes slightly and said, "During the time we left, did you discover anything in the base?"

Lao Luo closed the door, turned the key in the ignition, pulled the handbrake, stepped on the accelerator, and the vehicle started slowly.

"No problem happened, but a few days ago, there were about a dozen survivors from the north who fled south. I heard from them that a force had recently arisen in the north, called, what is it called, the Motorcycle Party? Yes, that's right. Call it a motorcycle gang.”

Lao Luo drove towards the Da Zhangshu base while driving.

"Motorcycle gang?" Li Yu murmured. He had never heard the name of this force in his previous life.

In his impression, there is a relatively powerful force in the north and south, but it is not named by that name.

"Yes, the motorcycle gang. I heard from the survivors who escaped that the motorcycle gang used to be mobile, but then they established a base and began to sweep away the surrounding small forces.

Many small teams were robbed, and some places were even taken under the banner of motorcycle gangs. Specialized in planting, but because the biker gang wants too much, they kill people at every turn.

Later, some survivors began to flee that way, heading south, and some came to our side. "

Lao Luo recalled that the survivors he saw a few days ago were discovered during his patrol. After discovering them, he immediately reported them to his second uncle and the others.

After questioning, I learned the information he just mentioned.

Li Yu frowned, feeling that something was different now than in his memory.

It's possible that he was too bad in his previous life and didn't know this at all. It's also possible that something went awry in this life.

Li Yu opened his slightly closed eyes and said to Lao Luo: "What about those people now? How to deal with them?"

Lao Luo said: "Those people should not be from the Western Alliance, so my second uncle didn't make it difficult for them. He gave them a choice to stay to collect supplies and exchange them for food contributions, or let them leave on their own."

Li Yu frowned and said, "Then, which path did those people choose?"

"Those people chose to stay. Yesterday I saw them helping some cooperative members to get into the car and unload the goods." Lao Luo said.

Li Yu thought for a moment, opened the car window, looked at the receding street trees, and said nothing. He would wait until he returned to the base to talk about this.

As for what the second uncle did, I can’t say it’s good or bad.

Now that the Western Alliance has been wiped out, there are currently no visible enemies in the Da Zhangshu Base.

With the passage of time, if the camphor tree base wants to expand, it must have more people.

The premise is to be able to feed so many people, but now they only need to build the third outer city, and their food production can be doubled.

At that time, they can absorb more people.

As for those who came here on their own initiative, it is also good to keep them for the time being, so as to reserve population for the expansion of the base.

Lao Luo's driving skills are very good, and he drives very steadily on the road.

Li Yu's body sank into the seat and took a nap in the back.

Li Tie and others in the back car fell asleep directly in the co-pilot seat. They didn't sleep well last night.

Last night, the zombies were noisy outside. In that narrow station, many zombies surrounded them and made unpleasant roars, which made it difficult for them to sleep well.

Last night, there was no danger, and the zombies did not break into their temporary station.

However, this made them almost sleepless all night. They kept driving early this morning and were anxious to come back. They didn't want to stay outside any longer. They were used to the sense of security brought by the high walls in the base. When they were outside, they could still accept it for a short time.

As time went by, they missed the sense of security brought by the big camphor tree base.

At least, they could sleep well without worrying about zombies suddenly surrounding them in the middle of the night.

Moreover, zombies are one thing, and sometimes you also worry about the survivors hiding outside with bad intentions.

Therefore, in the end of the world, it is extremely important to have a place that can give you a sense of security.

Two and a half hours later, they finally came to a gas station not far from the big camphor tree base outside the national highway.

Generally speaking, if you drive a new energy vehicle or other sedan, you can go back in an hour and a half, but because it is loaded with a full car of harvest and towing a car, the speed naturally drops.

Seeing this gas station almost means that they have returned home.

The vehicle turned a corner and entered the rural road.

Lao Luo was about to wake up Li Yu, but before Lao Luo called him, Li Yu opened his eyes and sat up.

Looking at the familiar scene outside the window, it felt like a day ago.

It was only half a month, but it seemed like half a year.

So many things happened in the past half month in the Western Alliance that it gave him the illusion that a long time had passed.

Soon, the vehicle arrived at the gate of the big camphor tree base.

The gate was open at this time. Second uncle, second uncle, eldest uncle, Li's father, Yutong and others stood on the wall and looked at the entrance. Finally, they saw the vehicle of Li Yu and others.

After entering Wengcheng, Li Yu rubbed his face. He just squinted for a while in the car, and now he is in a much better state.

Second uncle didn't say much. He just said that he was back, and didn't ask Li Yu about this or that.

The general situation was described when Li Yu entered the territory of Gan City.

After Dapao and others got off the car, several people had panda eyes, and they didn't sleep well.

Li Yu pointed to the nine trucks he brought back and said to his uncle, "Uncle, the things on these trucks are what I told you on the way. Let's have someone transport these things to the inner city for inspection and then seal them in the warehouse."

"By the way, Yuanzi, keep a record on your side and don't take snacks secretly." Li Yu said to Li Yuan.

Hearing this, Li Yuan said excitedly and surprised, "There are snacks!?"

"Uh" Li Yu felt that he talked too much, perhaps because he had not slept well in the past few days and his brain was a little slow.

I wouldn't have told her if I had known.

But Li Yuan had to register to enter the warehouse, Li Yu shook his head and didn't think about it anymore.

After saying something to his uncle and others, he went back to rest with Dapao and others.

Seeing that they were so tired, the uncle and others just gave them a few instructions and didn't pester them to ask questions, and then went to count and seal the supplies they brought back.
