Chapter 511 Painful News
After Jess and Gong Xue chatted amicably for a while, a few loud roars of giant zombies suddenly came from afar.
Everyone's faces turned pale. No one dared to speak again, afraid of alarming the group of corpses not too far away from them.
All contradictions were put aside, all communication stopped. The people on the five boats did not speak and rested. They waited until twelve o'clock in the night before continuing along the river.
The road ahead was very dangerous, because there were zombies standing on both sides of the river. Fortunately, they all closed their eyes and lowered their heads into a dormant state. The people on the boat lit a mysterious incense made in the Hundred Cities area, These incense fragrances were developed by the Russian government to allow sleeping zombies to enter a deeper dormancy. If they did not directly touch their bodies, they would not have been able to wake up after a short period of time. They were the necessary defensive items for the mercenaries at any time.
Qin An was still worried when they first lit the incense. Fortunately, the ingredients did not affect him.
Just like that, the five small boats traveled at their fastest speed for six hours. They escaped from the dangerous area and entered a relatively safe stretch of the river.
At this time, the adventure of the Northern Heavens Secret Road had officially begun. Five boats, a total of nearly 50 people, had temporarily formed an alliance.
After walking for a day, Qin An learned more through the conversation between Gong Xue and Lu Fei.
First of all, Zhou Jiawei, Hu Wenwu, Mo Fu, Lu Fei, and Zuo Shanshan were all on the same street, on the side of the so-called Dark City in Dark Light City.
The relationship between the five of them was also very complicated. Lu Fei and Zuo Shanshan were originally classmates, but they were also natural enemies. Zhou Jiawei and the others were junior brothers. It was said that they had cultivated an ancient martial art called the Eight Extremes Fist before. Qin An guessed that their special abilities might be related to the ancient martial arts they cultivated.
Among the three brothers, Hu Wenwu was very infatuated with Lu Fei. Every time he saw Lu Fei, he would foolishly smile. Zuo Shanshan, on the other hand, secretly fell in love with Mo Wuji. Every time she saw Mo Wuji, she would feel embarrassed
Zhou Jiawei, who was pretending to be romantic, was depressed. The second brother had someone he liked, and the third brother was liked by others. He was the only widow of the Gu Clan, so his mood naturally wouldn't be good. Therefore, if the five of them came together, it would really be a grand palace drama.
On the other hand, the relationship between the two of them and Gong Xue's group of five was very sensitive.
They were all from the Tibetan West Base, but the exchange was entirely done by Jess and Gong Xue.
Liu Tian never talked to the five people in his group, and the five people in Gong Xue's group did not pay attention to Liu Tian. The only thing was that Shangguan Xiaolong would occasionally peek at Liu Tian with a very strange gaze. After seeing all of this in Qin An's eyes, he began to quietly pay attention to Shangguan Xiaolong to prevent him from playing tricks on him.
Although the other party also came from the Tibetan West Base, he had many personalities. No one could guarantee that the people who walked out of the Tibetan West Base were all good people who were selfless and did not eat human fireworks.
There was one more thing that Qin An did not dare to confirm. Even that fat sister Gong Xue would secretly look at him like Shangguan Xiaolong looked at Liu Tian. When Qin An noticed that her gaze met his, the fat sister would quickly turn her gaze away, and then her face would turn red. Seeing that she looked shy, Qin An felt very uneasy in his heart.
In short, they were together with seven mutants. Occasional interactions could also become a scene.
Because of these people, although the waterway was very boring, Qin Anliu Ru and the others did not feel very lonely.
Liu Ru had already covered her face with a layer of white veil. This was what Qin An meant. After all, Liu Ru's appearance was too beautiful. Qin An did not want to attract unnecessary trouble because of her beauty.
After traveling for another three days in the river, the five boats finally approached the first replenishment station in the Northern Heavens Secret Road, which was located near Gucheng Zi Town. Up to now, the boat had been traveling in the river for almost ten days. Although it was still smooth and did not encounter too much danger, this time was because it took a lot of walking and stopping.
At noon on this day, Qin An and the others sat on their boats to eat. Lu Fei of the optimistic sect was smiling softly, "We can go ashore after walking for more than two hours! Sigh, these ten days, I've suffocated my little aunt to death!"
As soon as she finished speaking, on another boat less than three meters away from the boat, Shangguan Xiaolong suddenly came uninvited and directly jumped from the boat onto the board of Qin An's boat.
Qin An put aside a piece of dry pancake and narrowed his eyes. He looked at Shangguan Xiaolong vigilantly and thought to himself, "Is this kid finally going to cause trouble at this time?"
Liu Tian immediately frowned. She looked at Shangguan Xiaolong and said unhappily, "What are you doing here? Don't think that after walking together for a few days, our relationship is very close!"
Shangguan Xiaolong chuckled and ignored the others. He only glanced at Jesse and then turned his gaze to Liu Tian's face. He wanted to speak but wanted to stop.
When Jesse saw Shangguan Xiaolong's expression, he hurriedly said, "Alright, Liu Tian!" Don't be so stingy. Didn't you fight with him when you were in Tibet? That's all a thing of the past. Now that he has come out and experienced many things in the apocalypse, he is no longer a young man who doesn't understand the world in the academy. Therefore, don't look down on others. Brother Shangguan, I like your surname very much! I wonder if you have anything to say when you jump onto our ship from that side? "
When Liu Tian heard Jesse say that she was wrong, she was very depressed. She wanted to retort, but in the end, she did not say a word and continued to lower her head to eat.
Shangguan Xiaolong looked at Jesse gratefully, then sat at the bow of the boat. After a long time, he said, "Liu Tian, I do remember you! However, I was a little nervous when I first saw you. That's why I pretended to be confused."
Liu Tian snorted and said, "Is that so? I remember you were very arrogant when you shouted at the people of our military headquarters in Hero Academy!"
Shangguan Xiaolong hurriedly said, "Don't be angry. I didn't think that the apocalypse would be so cruel at that time. Therefore, from my point of view, I think that everyone in your military system is awesome. That's why I don't like you!" "But now I know that it is not easy for you, and I have a deep respect for every soldier of the Tibetan government!"
Liu Tian was slightly stunned. She did not expect Shangguan Xiaolong to say such a thing to her at such a moment. What was his purpose?
There were some doubts in her heart. Liu Tian did not speak anymore. She believed that since Shangguan Xiaolong had already started, she would definitely continue to say what he wanted to say.
Shangguan Xiaolong hesitated for a while before he said, "Liu Tian, is your father called Liu Zhenglong? He used to be a military leader of the Nanjing Military Region?"
Liu Tian was even more surprised. She nodded at Shangguan Xiaolong and said, "How do you know?"
Shangguan Xiaolong took a deep breath and his expression became very ugly. He slowly said, "You'd better be mentally prepared! He … he's dead!"
Liu Tian almost cried out in alarm and shouted, "What did you say?"
Jesse hurriedly covered Liu Tian's mouth.
At this time, from the zombies on both sides of the river, a group of zombies roared angrily. Apparently, Liu Tian's voice was too loud, and the zombies were already alarmed by the sound from this side.
The helmsmen of the five small boats didn't dare to slack off at all. They rowed their oars and left the area as fast as they could. The Zhou brothers noticed that the situation was not good on the other boat. They immediately took out a few iron balls from their bosoms and threw them towards the two banks.
This thing was called the Noise Bomb. It was also developed by the Russian government. It had batteries as power. When the switch was pressed for ten seconds, it would make a small noise, but it was enough to attract zombies within a few hundred meters of Fang Yuan. Then throw these noise bombs far away, the purpose of course is to attract zombies away from the river bank, not to rush over to block them in the river.
Half an hour later, the surroundings finally quieted down and the crisis was resolved. Only then did Jesse dare to let go of Liu Tian's mouth.
Liu Tian stared fixedly at Shangguan Xiaolong. Although her body was trembling, she had calmed down. She whispered, "You said my father is dead? Shangguan Xiaolong, let me tell you, if you dare to lie to me, I will definitely not let you off! This is not a joke!"
Shangguan Xiaolong quickly nodded and said softly,
"Hey, Liu Tian, do you know what your father was doing?"
Liu Tian's face turned pale, and her voice trembled as she said,
"Could it be that something happened to the south?"
Qin An leaned against the boat and listened to their conversation. He was the one who rowed the boat when he escaped from the crisis zone, but now it was Wang Hui at the helm.
Along the way, he didn't have much spirit! Because he found that it seemed impossible to go to the United States!
In a short distance of more than a hundred kilometers, they had actually walked for almost ten days! So is it about 20,000 kilometers from here to the United States? How many years will it take? Qin An had even lost the confidence to save Weng Die. Now that Weng Die had been robbed for many days, it was possible that she had already...
Qin An did not dare to think any further.
Because he was not in a high mood, after Shangguan Xiaolong suddenly stepped onto their bed, a trace of named anger arose in Qin An's heart. He had been keeping an eye on Shangguan Xiaolong. As long as he moved, Qin An might immediately subdue him.
After Shangguan Xiaolong said that Liu Tian's father was dead and that they were out of danger, Liu Tian asked, "Could something have happened to the south?" Qin An's named anger was suppressed and his emotions turned into curiosity.
South? South of what? China's southernmost province of Guangxi? Or the south side of the Tibetan West Base?
