Chapter 40, I want to be with my cookies!
The road to Boundary Mountain was not easy to travel, mostly dirt roads.
Sometimes Ren Xiaosu even saw the occasional concrete road on the ground while sitting inside the car’s bucket, but those roads had long since crumbled and become dilapidated due to who knows what.
Previously, Ren Xiaosu heard Mr. Zhang of the school mention that these concrete roads were left behind before the Catastrophe Era, but now after an unknown number of years, the road base has been broken, and even most of the road surface has been buried by the soil.
Nowadays, the “big road” that connects all the barriers is similar to this situation, except that there are relatively more vehicles coming and going, so the dirt road will be a bit smoother.
In fact, the vehicles traveling between the barriers are not that much, Ren Xiaosu and his group can see ten times a year in the market town that there are external vehicles coming to barrier 113, even if it’s a relatively large number.
The wilderness is not desolate, on the contrary, from the market town after just a few dozen kilometers in front of them, as far as the eye can see are lush green, and these years the growth of vegetation is more and more lush.
But Ren Xiaosu think this should not be a bad thing, usually the market town food is scarce, can not eat meat then eat more vegetables ah, he noticed that even Zhang Jinglin planted their own cabbages are higher than ever.
Ren Xiaosu also specifically asked Zhang Jinglin is not fertilized, the results Zhang Jinglin said no. This is a good thing, maybe a potato in the future.
This is a good thing, maybe in the future a potato can be eaten by a family of three. ……
Liu Bu let Ren Xiaosu sit in the back of the pickup truck bucket inside, may never thought Ren Xiaosu will do.
Inside the trunk are all the food and water they brought out from the wall, this thing is not necessary to lock ah, just wrapped in a tarpaulin only.
Ren Xiaosu sat in the bucket under the curiosity of lifting the tarpaulin to look at a glance, saw the two words cookies, and then lifted another piece of tarpaulin, and saw the bottled water ……
Because of the bumps, the car on the road is not fast, to know that the band’s most fearful thing is not actually encountered what beasts, after all, they are now with twelve private army soldiers, and are loaded with bullets, do not have to worry about beasts of this kind of problem.
It was true that there had been such a thing as wolves before, but the wolves had long since hid far away, and the mountain they were hiding in was several hundred kilometers away from this side, so there was no need to worry about them suddenly coming back.
According to the experience of the refuge barriers, if they came back to this area, it would be at least a year after they had recuperated.
So the thing that the convoy was most worried about at this moment was what to do if the car broke down.
Half of the soldiers from these private forces had learned to repair cars, but it was impossible for them to bring a full set of parts on the road.
A slower trip was better than walking there.
During this time, Ren Xiaosu had to get off the vehicle for convenience, so much so that the entire convoy had to stop and wait for him, which made the people in the convoy even more dissatisfied with him, but Ren Xiaosu didn’t care, facing everyone’s gazes at his complaints as if they were nothing.
The caravan continued traveling, at noon, when the caravan stopped Liu Bu jumped out of the car first, he happily laughed: “After staying inside the wall for a long time, coming out to look at this vast scenery is really a good mood.”
A private trooper laughed, “That’s right, it’s boring to stay inside the barriers.”
In fact, at the beginning of the journey, everyone was in the same pissy mood, in the mood to look at the scenery, in the mood to talk and laugh, but after a few days, it shouldn’t be like this anymore.
In the past when Ren Xiaosu came out to hunt, the first day he also felt very cozy ……
Liu Bu greeted everyone off the vehicle and said, “Everyone get off the vehicle and have something to eat, eat something and let’s continue to rush, and strive to be able to go over to the Cloud Ridge before it gets dark, we’ve been there last time, there’s an open space suitable for camping.”
The people on the SUV all got off the vehicle with a smile and a laugh, a few soldiers from the private forces got together to smoke, everyone’s face was filled with a satisfied expression.
Liu Bu greeted the staff and walked towards the pickup truck together, he could not make these soldiers move, the twelve private force soldiers invited for this trip was not that he and Luo Xinyu had a big face, but that the band was originally here to cover these private forces to carry out their mission!
In this situation, others may think that he, Liu Bu and Luo Xinyu have a big face, but they themselves need to understand the importance of the situation.
Liu Bu walked towards the pickup truck while saying to the band staff at his side, “Later on, spread the smoke we brought for these military gentlemen as well.”
“Okay, how much to disperse for them?” The staff asked.
“Take out one first, didn’t we bring ten, slowly give it not in a hurry,” Liu Bu said with a smile, “This time there are new faces, after a few days we all get familiar with each other and get along well.”
Just at this moment Liu Bu came to the back of the pickup truck, as a result he was shocked when he turned his head, “Crap, Ren Xiaosu what are you doing!”
Ren Xiaosu looked at Liu Bu, “Don’t be shocked, I didn’t do anything! Hiccup!”
Eating a little too much to hold back, Ren Xiaosu stood up to move his body, and in the meantime also patted the cookie crumbs on his body. ……
Liu Bu grasped the car bucket to look inside, then the heartache: “Are you a pig how so can eat, a person a morning ate five packets of cookies!
To be honest, Ren Xiaosu has not eaten so full for a long time, the poorest days he is tight Yan Liu Yuan to eat, days of affluence is also the matter of these days, he has not yet had the opportunity to luxury it ……
And the cookies these people brought are delicious, both sweet and salty.
To know the market town salt and sugar can be a luxury, usually Ren Xiaosu they eat are dry boiled potatoes and other things, how can they eat such a flavorful food ah, the car can drink so much water still ……
“Look at what you’ve eaten your stomach into,” Liu Bu angrily roared, “You’ve got to be four months old, right? Won’t you brace yourself for a hard time?”
Ren Xiaosu did not have a good temper and said, “This is not you let me sit in this car bucket, but you say so, but also a little hard.”
Said Ren Xiaosu got off the car and ran to the distance, “You guys eat, I’m going to take a shit.”
When Ren Xiaosu ran far away, only Liu Bu and the others were left messing around in the wind of the wilderness.
One of the band staff hesitated and said, “Let’s just let him sit in the car?”
Liu Bu glared, “Why should we let him sit in the car? What qualifications does he, a vagrant, have to sit with us, huh?”
The staff member’s aura immediately weakened, but he still muttered, “If we let him stay in the pickup truck bucket for two more days, we’re afraid we won’t make it to Barrier 112, right ……”
As soon as Liu Bu heard this, he roughly estimated Ren Xiaosu’s meal, then lamented, “Indeed we can’t make it through ……”
In the end, everyone decided by consensus to let Ren Xiaosu sit in the car.
However, when Ren Xiaosu came back, as soon as he heard that he was allowed to sit in the car, he was not happy: “I don’t sit in the car, why should I sit with you guys, I’m an exile!”
“Let go of me, let me be with my cookies!”
“You’re not human beings!”
In the end, we all worked together to put him in the car before it was over. ……
