walking dead

When the first light of dawn fell on the earth in the morning, Lin Tao also opened his eyes from the car on time. He carefully moved Bai Ru in his arms aside and straightened himself up, looking up to the outside of the car. At this moment, The two vermilion ancient city gates a few hundred meters away from them are also slowly opening, announcing that this large gathering place with a population of 10 has opened its arms to them!

Looking at the quaint ancient city wall, the guards are modern people with automatic weapons. Lin Tao couldn't help feeling a little distorted in time and space. They arrived here in the middle of the night yesterday, but were told by the guards on the city wall that the gate would not open at night and had to wait until morning That's fine, and Lin Tao didn't have any objections, so he didn't even set up a tent, and let everyone deal with it in the car in the middle of the night.net

This is already a suburb more than 220 kilometers away from Jiangcheng, and more than 500 kilometers away from Lin Tao's hometown Nanzhou. From the mottled tourist signs, we can know that this is a film and television base that was built just before the end of the world. , the first phase of the project was completed, and the end came not long after it was put into use, but this place is not a little bit bigger than Li Qiang's original gathering place. Judging from the magnificent momentum, if it is a little crowded, it is estimated that it can accommodate a few people. 10 people is definitely not a problem.

Besides, the city wall here has been built a long time ago. The absolutely authentic bluestone city wall is not only strong but also tall. Just standing on the bottom gives people a very solid feeling. There are also watchtowers on the top of the city gate and at the two corners. Armed guards are patrolling, and they don't seem to be the kind of disciplined and foolish characters.

The two scarlet gates were slowly opened by a group of guards with guns on their backs. Heavy machine guns were also placed on the sandbags piled up in front of the gates, and the deer horns made of sharp wooden stakes were also dragged out by them. , all placed in the middle of the road paved with blue bricks, leaving only a zigzag narrow aisle, which can only barely allow pedestrians to pass. [

The people in front of the city gate were very busy, and Lin Tao just finished smoking a cigarette here. He honked the horn to wake everyone up. After waking up sleepily, everyone looked at the opposite side curiously. Lin Tao smiled and shook his head. After answering various questions from the women in the car, I turned on the ignition and drove the car slowly towards the city.

"Stop!"

A middle-aged guard wearing a martial arts camouflage uniform without corresponding epaulettes and collar patches made a stop gesture from a distance. He was carrying a semi-new Bayi rifle and led two men dressed in the same clothes Stepping forward, he first looked at Lin Tao's car, then at the people in the car, and finally frowned and said to Lin Tao, "Are you survivors from Jiangcheng?"

"Yes, what's the problem?" Lin Tao took out three cigarettes from his pocket with a smile, and handed them one each.

"Oh, there's nothing wrong with the problem!" After receiving the cigarette, the guard's face immediately improved a lot. He tilted his head and asked the subordinates behind him to light the cigarette for him. Check, you can only be let in if you are not infected with the virus, I hope you can understand, this is also for the good of everyone!"

"Okay, how to check?" Lin Tao nodded and said very understandingly.

"You two go and remove the obstacles, you come with me!" The leading guard waved his hands and sent the two people behind him back, then stepped on the pedal of the pickup truck, climbed on the edge and said to Lin Tao: "Slow down! Just go straight in!"

"Brother, it's hard work, please take care of us for the first time!" Cao Mei in the car smiled and stretched her head, took out a whole pack of Zhonghua cigarettes from the storage box and handed it to the guard lying on the door. His eyes lit up immediately, he stuffed the cigarette into his coat pocket with a happy smile, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I'm in charge of the city gate, if you need anything, just come to me, my surname is Yao, call me Captain Yao It's done!"

The two cars, one behind the other, slowly drove into the city gate under the leadership of the guards. As soon as they entered the city gate, everyone discovered that there was a place similar to an urn inside. Looking at the same tall city wall inside , I learned that only after entering this city wall can I really enter the city, and this is only a place to isolate the identity of the infected, but everything here does not show a powerful momentum that is [-] times more formal than the Jiangcheng gathering place!

"Come on, get out of the car, cars are not allowed in the city, just lock the doors and park here!"

The two cars were parked side by side in a relatively spacious parking lot in front of Wengcheng. The place was already full of vehicles of various colors. A rough estimate is that there are thousands of them, and there are even more cars ranging from the most common Great Wall pickup to the big Hummer. There are a lot of things to see, but what is strange is that most of these cars have their doors closed, but some cars can see a pair of stinky feet stretched out of the car. It seems that someone is resting in the car.

"Come on, come with me, there are jng guards to help you see that no one will steal your things, but you have to bring your weapons, and you have to register later!" The people who got out of the car went to a row of blue prefabricated houses in front of the city wall, but before they got close to that row of houses, they immediately heard shouts from the innermost rooms, just like watching football. The game is as lively!

The guard walked forward naturally, but Zhang Xu couldn't help but walked up and asked, "Hey, brother, what is this house for? It's like a fire inside this early in the morning. It can't be that someone is gambling inside. Bar?"

"Of course it's gambling, otherwise, who of those bastards could get up so early? They have been gambling all night since last night, and they didn't even sleep!" The leading guard smiled disapprovingly, and turned around and said, "I know you guys Newcomers are curious, I will explain to you while you are doing the inspection later!"

As they said that, everyone had already arrived in front of the row of prefabricated houses, only to find that the house that they thought was not too long extended to a length of five or sixty meters, and there seemed to be traces of people moving about in every room.

"Hey, wake up, wake up, the sun is drying your ass, why don't you girls get up?" The guard went straight to the first house and began to knock on the door, but he waited It took several minutes for the door to be slowly opened, and a disheveled young girl poked her head out from the crack of the door in a daze, saw who was coming, and said sadly: "I said Captain Yao, what are you doing?" Huh? There is still more than an hour before we go to work, are you still letting people live?"

"Damn, do you think you are still civil servants who work from [-] to [-]? Don't be a motherfucker, quickly register these brothers like me. If you are slow, I will definitely complain to you and ask the higher-ups to deduct your rations!" The guard surnamed Yao said imposingly. He yelled a lot, and opened the door without waiting for the girl to answer, and there were a few screams from the girl inside the door, and Captain Yao laughed loudly and said, "What the fuck, who told you Those who like to sleep naked, hurry up, hurry up, it is your own loss to be seen by others!"

There was a lot of flying around inside, and it took about ten minutes before Lin Tao was greeted by Captain Yao and took the lead into this office. As soon as he entered the door, he saw four or five girls in messy clothes tidying up the clothes on the floor. Quilts, first an older woman stuffed her quilt into a cabinet, stroked her long hair in the shawl, and said to Captain Yao angrily: "Old Yao, can you be more wicked? An excuse to spy on our sisters, let you marry one back home, and you are afraid that the burden will be too heavy. If you want to play the one-night stand, I advise you to die as soon as possible. There are a lot of handsome men in the city. I won't find you like this!"

"Hey~ I don't like to hear what you say. Can those little white faces who buy farts compare to me? They don't know where the shit comes from and where it goes in. It's just us real men who are the treasures now. , Little boy has a use for his fart!" Captain Yao sat down on a desk carelessly, raised his eyebrows at the woman and said with a smile: "Hey, Meizi, can you lower the betrothal price? Five hundred catties of rice It's a bit too high indeed!" [

"Fart, my old lady made a flower back then, and the number of people chasing me is countless. If I could line up from your gate to the train station, if I didn't fall into this field now, I would sell you five hundred catties of rice? Let me tell you, If my father and my sister knew that I paid such a cheap price, they would definitely not be happy!" The woman named Meizi immediately pinched her waist, stared at Captain Yao aggressively, but this woman About 27 or [-] years old, with a beautiful appearance, it does look like a flower on a closer look. In the past, five hundred catties of rice, let alone marrying home, was a rare thing to be able to sleep with smoke from the ancestral grave!

"Captain Yao, you have already married two wives, and you still want to provoke our sister Mei? Can you afford it?" The young girl who opened the door came over with a stack of receipts, and threw them on the desk. On the next day, she turned on a computer, and then she turned back with a smile and said: "It's not like you don't know our rules. Once a woman is raised by a man, she can't work in the department. Just your little public ration, you alone That big belly woman at home can eat you poor!"

/>

"Of course you can eat it if you're pregnant, but if Xiaomei follows me, can I still make her hungry?" Captain Yao looked very disapproving, but still scratched his head a little irritably, then waved his hand impatiently and said: " Forget it, let’s not talk about it, my friends are waiting impatiently, it’s important to do business for them!”

"Hey~ We've been exhausted for the past few days. Yesterday, we received more than 3000 people in one day. I used up eight batteries in my laptop. I thought it was over. Who knows what happened this early in the morning? Come on, if this continues, I think I'm really going to die of exhaustion!" The girl shook her head naively, but her expression didn't have the slightest hint of indifference from the previous public office, she raised her head very politely and said to Lin Tao: "Sir, please You come here, report your name, age, and original occupation and specialty, and we will take a photo of you and enter it into the computer later!"

"Still taking pictures?" Lin Taonahan scratched his head and turned to look at his companions around him. Naturally, they all looked confused. These newcomers, they all had the feeling of Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. , Seeing everything is strange!

"Come on, the rest of the lesbians, please come to me too, please lift up your clothes and let me check if there are any wounds on your body!" Meizi clapped her hands, and immediately two girls moved a screen Putting it in the corner of the room to separate men and women, she wore a pair of white gloves and began to perform physical examinations on women.

Three or ten minutes later, Lin Tao and his team finished the inspection and registration, and everyone received an identity card made of cardboard and stamped with a red stamp. Lin Tao, who looked a bit like a leader, said, "You can't enter the city yet. You have to wait here for more than six hours to make sure you're not infected before you can go in, or you can spend two catties of rice each to do a blood test for you. Once there are no problems, you can enter the city immediately!"

"We'll give rice!" Lin Tao nodded without hesitation. They still had enough food. After speaking, he smiled and asked Captain Yao: "Those who gamble are also quarantined and waiting?"

"Yes, they are all people who went out to find food and came back, and there are also survivors who just came from your place. It's just that they don't want to spend money on testing, so they simply wait while gambling. After all, this is for everyone's benefit, so everyone I can understand that there are two prison cells at the corner, if any of you have obvious wounds, you have to go there alone, you can't even gamble money!" Captain Yao nodded with a smile, and then took out the The bag of Zhonghua in his pocket was thrown to Meizi who said, "Be filial to your father, go back and tell him that sooner or later you will belong to my Lao Yao, and I will marry you when I raise enough dowry!"

"Hmph~ You have a conscience!" Meizi gave Captain Yao a charming look, and happily put the pack of cigarettes into the drawer.

"Hey, sister, can you get married here? Can you get a marriage certificate?" Bingbing, who had just checked last night, put down her clothes and asked curiously with her head stuck out from behind the screen.

"Of course you can get a marriage certificate. We even have a divorce certificate, and they are all official red books from the Civil Affairs Bureau. The archives in the city will note it in your file. In our case It definitely has legal effect!" Meizi shrugged and replied with a smile.

"Ah? So formal?" Bingbing's eyes were full of surprises, but she seemed to remember something, and asked with a little anxiety: "Then...then how many wives can the men here marry?"

"Sister, you are stupid for asking that. Nowadays, there is definitely no upper limit for a man to marry a wife. As long as you can marry, you can take away thousands of dollars, and the police in the city will naturally not care about you." , but now there are only women who can't get married, there is no man who can't find a wife!" Mei Zinai said.

"Damn, why are there still police officers? Are po\ prostitutes arrested?" Zhang Xu's eyes widened immediately, and he immediately asked the question he was most concerned about.

"Haha, brother! There are nearly 10 people from us, old and young, plus you. If there is no policeman in town, it won't be a mess? However, although those policemen are all regular policemen before, the guards The law is no longer that law, it is a new law drawn up by several mayors and deputy mayors of our film city. As for the matter you mentioned, it is not a matter at all. Our red light district is so large that it can scare you to death, and it is 24 It is open on an hourly basis, as long as you have money in your pocket, you can enjoy yourself!" Captain Yao smoked the cigarette that Lin Tao had just given him, and smiled sinisterly with a real man's face.

"Ha! That's good, if I catch po, I will go crazy! It seems that I really need to get familiar with your rules quickly, don't suddenly come out with prostitutes, and put me, who likes drunk driving If you get caught, you will be in trouble!" Zhang Xu smacked his lips with an indescribably depressed expression.

"Okay, the blood test can be carried out in a while, first take out your weapons and register them all with us!" Meizi stood up as she spoke, and walked around the table and said to Lin Tao: "Rifles and powerful firearms are the same. You are not allowed to bring them into the city. You can choose to put them in the car in the parking lot, or you can choose to put them in our paid safe. You are not allowed to carry more than fifty rounds of pistols. We will have a special person for each head I engraved the numbers on you, and the guns you bring in must be kept properly. In case they are lost or stolen, and someone uses your gun to kill someone in the city, the owner of the gun will be jointly and severally responsible , I hope you can think about it clearly, with or without it!"

"Damn, I guessed that guns would be banned, but luckily only rifles are banned! But why are there so many rules here? Isn't this the goddamn end of the world?" Zhang Xu chattered and gave the automatic rifle on his back to He took it off, put it on the desk, and after thinking about it, he said to Meizi: "You have set up a prison, right? There's no food in there?"

"How can there be such a beautiful thing, to have free prison meals, even I intend to go to prison, the savings can only be saved every day, and every salary has to be checked by counting rice grains!" Meizi shook her head with a wry smile , holding Zhang Xu’s gun to register him, and said: “We only have a detention room here, and only water is provided, and you have to bring your own food. If the crime is serious, you will either be shot or expelled from the city. No!"

"Oh my god! Sister Meizi, they...they have bazookas, what should we do?" A girl suddenly exclaimed, watching Wang Guodong pull out two bazookas from her sports bag in amazement. After taking a few steps back, she hurriedly looked at Meizi as if she was asking for help.

"Damn it, brothers, the firepower is strong enough. I thought you had more than a dozen rifles and shotguns. Who knew you even had such a big guy? No wonder your car is full of food. !" Captain Yao also looked at the bazooka in Wang Guodong's hand in shock, then shook his head and sighed: "This kind of big guy is getting rarer and rarer now, and these 40 fires of yours are enough to kill the Quartet! !” [

"Mr. Lin, we have to put these bazookas in a safe for us to take out when you leave the city, and you must pay for the safe, otherwise we will have to confiscate them!" Meizi looked at the Several rockets looked solemn, as if facing a big enemy. Although the law and order in the city is not bad, but when the brain gets hot, there are too many policemen and guards with guns, so there have long been regulations here. The killing weapon must be put in a special place for safekeeping immediately, so as to save some people from making decisions, it would be a lot of fun to frantically fire a cannon in the center of the city.

"What? Are you still talking about overlord clauses?" Zhang Xu immediately became unhappy, tilted his head, and looked at Meizi very unkindly.

"Hey, brother, I hope you understand. This is for everyone's benefit. You certainly don't want others to get this kind of thing and hang it on your shoulders in front of your eyes, right? Let's cooperate. It's only about a catty of rice a month. You don’t care about anything!” Captain Yao immediately came up to smooth things over, five men, a dozen women and a dog, pulling two carts full of food, all ghosts knew that they must be unusual, and the reason why he It was precisely for this reason that he was so eager to bring Lin Tao and the others to register in person early in the morning.

"Old Wang, give them something!" Lin Tao nodded so-called, and Wang Guodong handed over the bazooka without hesitation. He also hoped that the law and order in the city would be better, otherwise they would not even sleep well and would be annoying.

But after the bazooka was handed over, none of the women dared to touch it. They were afraid that something bad would blow up their houses. In the end, Captain Yao went out with the bazooka in hand, and they were relieved. Lin Tao opened a receipt.
