walking dead

"I got these all here!" Xiaochao puffed out his chest and looked at Lin Tao proudly. Lin Tao nodded with a smile and said, "Not bad! You're a man, and you're their squad leader?"

"No, I'm their boss!" Xiaochao snorted arrogantly, but his eyes were still fixed on the pistol on Lin Tao's waist. After wiping his nose again, he asked eagerly, "Uncle... your pistol is for you?" Is it? I use two... No, how about three cigarettes in exchange for you? I have Greater China!"

"Okay! But you can hold the gun up!" Lin Tao smiled and pulled out the pistol, ejected the bullet from the chamber with a "click", then locked the safety and handed it to Xiaochao.

"Wow! This gun is so big!" Xiao Chao held the gun excitedly, but soon found that not only could he not lift the heavy pistol, he couldn't even hold the handle of the gun, and his fingers couldn't touch the trigger at all. , he returned the gun to Lin Tao with a frustrated face, scratched his head and said: "This gun is wrong, I found a gun on a living corpse before, and its gun is very small, it's just rusted and can't be used anymore !"

"You should be talking about police pistols. We are all military ones!" Lin Tao put away the gun and rubbed Xiao Chao's head. Seeing Xiao Chao's face full of annoyance, he smiled and said, "Don't worry! Wait for you After a few years, when you grow up, you can use these guns, everyone comes from your age!"

"Okay!" Xiaochao nodded helplessly, and then asked, "Uncle! I see you smoke, so I'll trade your cigarettes for food, okay? Xiaoling, bring me all your cigarettes!"

"Hey!" The girl with shofar braids agreed crisply, turned around and ran to the bed closest to the door, found a cardboard box, and took out four or five cigarettes from it. To Xiaochao's hands.

"How? They're all good things. I'm not willing to change those people in the gathering place. I just want to smoke them when I grow up. But since you are the People's Liberation Army, I will take advantage of you!" Xiaochao He put the cigarettes on the table in an old-fashioned way, and the Zhonghua with a few cigarettes for one water is indeed some high-end cigarettes.

"How do you want to change it?" Lin Tao picked up a cigarette and looked at it, with a playful smile on his lips.

"Hmm..." Xiaochao hesitated for a moment, then slapped his hands up, and said cautiously, "How about fifty catties of rice or flour, if I give you three sticks of cigarettes? It's very cheap!"

"Xiao Chao..." The female teacher frowned slightly when she heard the words, as if she was very dissatisfied with his slaughtering behavior, but Xiao Chao turned her head and said displeasedly: "Don't interrupt when men talk, women, this is a relationship between a man and a man." Dialogue!"

"Haha~ That's good, but you don't have the attitude to talk to the teacher!" Lin Tao put down his cigarette and looked at Xiaochao who pretended to be mature, but Xiaochao waved his hand and said, "What teacher, Qingqing is my little brother teacher, but she is my wife!"

"Uh……"

Lin Tao and Luo Rong were all stunned, looking at Xiaochao with disbelief, even the female teacher beside her blushed, and shouted anxiously: "Xiaochao, what nonsense are you talking about, you... you Not yet of age!"

"I'm fourteen years old, won't I be an adult in four years? You promised me that as soon as I become an adult, you will marry me, and now you can be regarded as a fiancee!" Xiaochao turned her head triumphantly Glancing at Lin Tao, Luo Rong pushed him teasingly, and said narrowly, "The little guy has the demeanor of yours back then, and he's looking for a teacher as his wife!"

"Stop talking nonsense! Since my wife has an opinion, you can take all fifty catties of rice and five sticks of cigarettes!" Xiao Chao waved his hand very boldly, then kicked the white wine carton next to his feet, and said, "You can buy these wines If you are interested, you can exchange it, and the price can be discounted!"

"Hehe~ Xiaochao!" Lin Tao said as he took apart a Zhonghua cigarette, lit one and put it in his mouth, and said with a smile, "Do you know how much this cigarette sells for in our city?"

"Twenty catties?" Xiao Chao asked, blinking.

"The price you just gave me is only enough to buy a pack of cigarettes here, and it's still priceless, no matter whether it's true or not!" Lin Tao narrowed his eyes at Xiaochao. Xiaochao and the female teacher were immediately stunned, and Xiaochao suddenly took a deep breath, and stammered, "You...all the people in your city are crazy? A pack of cigarettes is five... fifty catties of rice?"

"That's right! People who don't have food can't afford cigarettes!" Lin Tao smiled proudly, and then said: "But you also need to know the population base of our city. There are two large gathering places where we live , the population of our city alone is approaching 20, and the population of Qingshan County not far from us has exceeded 30, so if you think about it, nearly half of them are men. If everyone smokes every day, it will take With such a huge supply and demand, cigarettes are a real treasure for us!"

"What? You...you have so many people?" The female teacher stood up suddenly, looking at Lin Tao in surprise and fear, while Luo Rong patted her arm with a smile, Said: "Don't get excited, tell us about your situation first!"

"well!"

The female teacher bit her lower lip and nodded, sat down and began to speak slowly: "My name is Yang Qingqing, and I am not actually a teacher of this art school. I opened a dance studio on the second floor. After the disaster, the principal here He has been leading us all the time, but... But a year ago, he was beaten to death when he and another female teacher went to the gathering place to exchange supplies, so the children were led by me. As you probably guessed, we have been passing through the sewer in Looking for supplies in the city, because the sewers in our city are very narrow, only children can pass through, and it is difficult even for someone like me to get in, this is also an advantage that we alone do not have!"

"This is indeed an advantage, but I'm afraid you won't be able to go to many places?" Lin Tao asked.

"Yes!" Yang Qingqing nodded and said, "Xiao Chao is very brave, but his age is placed here after all, and in the past two years or so, we have almost never had enough to eat, so his size is not enough. It’s not very long, and we can’t go to places with a little more living corpses, but it’s more than enough than the bottom. Thanks to Xiaochao who took people out to find supplies, we’ve survived until now. Dead people, we are not bad!"

"It's also fortunate that you didn't grow up, otherwise you wouldn't be able to enter the sewer!" Lin Tao touched Xiao Chao's head, and asked, "Where is your gathering place here? What's the situation?"

"The gathering place is not far from us. It's in the development zone. They occupy a large factory, surrounded by walls and so on. There are probably more than 2 people!" Yang Qingqing's eyes flashed a trace of confusion. , sighed and said: "But there are no good people there. If we want to go in and exchange materials, we must pay a protection fee to a gang regularly to ensure our safety. When Xiaochao took me there for the first time, I... I I was almost insulted. I escaped after paying the protection fee. From then on, only Xiaochao took the boys to exchange supplies. The gang saw that we could pay the protection fee regularly, so they didn’t make things difficult for them. It’s just that you have to suffer a bit in terms of exchanging supplies!”

"Hmph~ They have guns, what's the big deal?" Xiaochao snorted angrily, and said, "At least I still dare to find food in the city, and I dare to go to many places without sewers, but They don't even dare to enter the city, they wander around the countryside all day long, they really grew so big for nothing!"

"Probably not? As far as the way you stole my gun, I don't think there are many living corpses!" Lin Tao asked in surprise.

"The gathering place is not over there, they are on the opposite side of that road, there are many living corpses, and do you know why there are so few living corpses on that road? This is my credit!" Xiao Chao stood up proudly She straightened her chest, but Yang Qingqing's little face turned red unnaturally, and then she heard Xiaochao say: "This is a solution I just thought of last month, I use that uh... sanitary napkin, the bloody one Kind of, lure the living corpses to other places in groups, and lure away a lot, but Qingqing and Xiaoling only bleed once a month, and it took me a long time to lure the living corpses away little by little. I just wanted to go again today, but who knew you guys were coming over on a motorcycle, so... I took your guns by the way!"

"Ha! You are very smart. I said, how come there are only so many living corpses in such a long street!" Lin Tao looked at Xiaochao with admiration, and Yang Qingqing also had a gentle look in his eyes, and said with a smile : "Xiao Chao is very smart, if he hadn't been working hard, maybe we would have starved to death!"

"What nonsense, as long as I, Li Chao, live, I will never let you starve to death!" Xiao Chao patted his chest confidently, looking very manly, and Lin Tao also said with a smile: " Not bad! To be a man is to be responsible, so that your teacher can marry you willingly!"

"No...no, I just said that to encourage Xiaochao!" Yang Qingqing blushed like a monkey's butt, she never thought that this matter would be exposed in front of two adults, the little fart here The children don't understand anything, so Xiaochao has been screaming at his wife, and she has never refuted, and Xiaochao has been playing the role of a real man here. If it wasn't for the sudden appearance of a mature man like Lin Tao, the contrast , in Yang Qingqing's mind, Xiaochao has long been regarded as an immature man.

"Haha~ It's okay, one of my wives used to be my class teacher!" Lin Tao waved his hands very clearly, and then asked: "By the way, Xiaochao, our team was stolen last night. It was you What did you do? The other party also came in from the sewer!"

"No! We usually don't dare to go out at night, we can't see it at all!" Xiaochao shook his head hastily, but suddenly slapped his head, turned to look at Yang Qingqing in panic and said, "Qingqing, could it be Qiangqiang?" They? The only ones who will drill into the sewers in the gathering place are strong, and those bastards must have forced them to find supplies!"

"Who is Qiangqiang?" Lin Tao frowned and asked.

"Qiangqiang is one of my little brothers!" Xiaochao turned his head and swallowed, and said, "We used to have six boys here. Qiangqiang and Wang Wei have always been my right and left hands, and there is a little cleverness for us. It's a helper, but when I took them to the gathering place to exchange supplies last week, they wanted to go to the wine to see the world, so I took them there, and I met a bunch of bad guys..."

Xiaochao paused when he said this, looked at Yang Qingqing with a little annoyance in his eyes, and then said: "They know that we often come here to exchange supplies, so they are curious about where we got the supplies, Qiangqiang drank that night...drink Too much, so I bragged to others. When we finished drinking, we were arrested as soon as we went out. I ran out after stabbing someone. Later, I found the boss of the gang who paid the protection fee. Their boss helped me They came forward, but the other party is quite powerful, and they wanted me to exchange supplies, three hundred catties of rice, so I had no choice but to agree to them, and after a month of negotiation, I will hand over the food to them!"
