Erosion

Chapter 13

Wei Yuan turned his head suspiciously and looked at Jiang Shan behind him. In just a few seconds, those black substances had dissipated into the air, as if they had been fused together.

Wei Yuan saw nothing.

Jiang Shan walked towards the toolbox without changing his face, and reached out to touch it. The outer skin of the toolbox seemed to be some kind of metal object, which was cold. She tried to pick it up, but it was lighter than she thought. It was so light. Like something is in there.

Wei Yuan glanced at the box that was brought over, with an upward arrow drawn on it and the words "handle with care" written on it.

Wei Yuan knew how to open this kind of box, and quickly touched the elastic lock, opened it and lifted the lid.

There was a good refueling gun inside, and Wei Yuan was relieved until now, he looked at Jiang Shan and said softly, "We found it, let's go out."

Jiang Shan didn't show any objection, she pushed Wei Yuan to the direction of the exit again.

Just a few steps away, the light of the other flashlight also suddenly went out, and Jiang Shan heard the sound of Wei Yuan flicking the switch twice, and it seemed to be completely off.

Only Wei Yuan's voice said: "Just go in this direction, the exit is just ahead."

Jiang Shan strode forward firmly in the dark, and could only hear the sound of the wheelchair rolling over the road, and the breathing of the two people, one after another, in a patchwork pattern.

Zhang Zheng and the others waited outside, looking into the distance a little irritably: "Damn, I really want to have a cigarette."

I can't remember how long I haven't smelled tobacco.

Zhang Zheng and the strong man Lao Gao searched the rest room outside just now, and barely found two loops of working oil pipes. Now the only thing is whether they can find the connected oil gun in the warehouse.

Zhao Ying kept staring at the warehouse exit, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "Come out!"

Sure enough, where Wei Yuan is, there will be no dead end.

They saw Jiang Shan slowly appearing behind him, saw Jiang Shan pushing Wei Yuan intact with his beard and tail intact, and the expressions that had just emerged gradually froze on their faces.

Everyone saw the toolbox on Wei Yuan's lap, and Wei Yuan said, "Use it right away, it won't last long."

There was no need to wait for Wei Yuan to finish speaking, Zhang Zheng directly carried the box and strode towards the truck.

Watch them connect the refueling gun familiarly, and drag out a whole barrel of oil from the rear compartment.

Jiang Shan consciously let go of Wei Yuan's wheelchair, and stood aside to observe them from afar.

Others didn't expect Jiang Shan to be so knowledgeable about current affairs. This girl seems to know how to be invisible and minimize her sense of existence.

This is also extraordinary talent.

The sound of the truck restarting made several people waiting on the side of the road look relieved. Everyone knew that no time should be wasted, and they all returned to the car within a few minutes.

Jiang Shan followed Wei Yuan and sat in the rear compartment again. Because of the lack of two barrels of fuel, the rear compartment is obviously much more spacious now, and Jiang Shan can even stretch his legs and lie down halfway.

Wei Yuan looked at Jiang Shan, "Don't you have anything to ask?"

Normal people would have problems experiencing what happened just now, but Jiang Shan didn't. She even closed her eyes and rested as usual.

Jiang Shan replied silently to Wei Yuan.

Then she shook her neck.

There are so many problems, just live.

Just now this group of people felt as if they were facing an abyss in front of the warehouse door, Wei Yuan offered to take her there, she thought she was going to face something that was a matter of life and death.

The result was a simple circle around the dark warehouse.

Of course, it doesn't seem that simple, it seems that there is indeed something hiding in the darkness.

But... whatever, she didn't "see" anything anyway, so she could pretend nothing happened.

Wei Yuan looked at such a "calm" Jiang Shan, but the emotions in his eyes were more complicated. In fact, he wanted Jiang Shan to ask something, and he was ready to answer.

These answers are not honest, who knows that Jiang Shan never gave Wei Yuan a chance to make up a story.

It's too calm, how can it be a stable group.

After refilling the tank, Driver Zhang seemed to let himself go. The roof of the rear compartment always felt like it was on the verge of falling apart, but Jiang Shan, who is very adaptable, can now fall asleep smoothly in the bumpy rear compartment.

Every day, the car only stops when it is time to eat and solve the three emergencies, and Jiang Shan wakes up in the morning sun. She has been using her backpack as a pillow and cushion for the past few days. She saw Zhang Zheng and another man outside the car. The men are doing something side by side in the grass.

Jiang Shan looked away, and slowly opened the backpack. Wei Yuan had already woken up. He saw Jiang Shan pick up his toiletries slowly, walked out of the car without accident, found an open space, and started brushing his teeth.

……

It has been the same for the past few days. Jiang Shan brushes his teeth and washes his face on time every day, works and rests regularly, has good habits, and is simply a good young man in the new era.

But... But in this desolate country, there are a group of unknown people around. Jiang Shan's mentality and behavior are weird no matter how you look at it. Wei Yuan and the others have seen the world, but they Looking at Jiang Shan one day, it is obvious that Jiang Shan is the most abnormal, but they actually have a feeling that they are abnormal.

They finally discovered that this world is no longer normal, so no one does normal things, but Jiang Shan is doing what "normal people" are doing day in and day out.

Jiang Shan looked at her toothbrush and was suddenly in a daze again. Then she looked at Zhao Ying: "Can I borrow toothpaste?"

Zhao Ying: "..."

What the hell is the mother selling batches doing! ?

Jiang Shan really just wanted to borrow some toothpaste, but even Zhao Ying herself hasn't brushed her teeth for two fucking months, where can I get the toothpaste for her?
Zhao Ying was covered in protective clothing. She felt that her face must be vegetable green now. For some reason, she seemed to be able to smell a trace of... bad breath spreading from her glass hood?
Zhao Ying wanted to flip the table.

Then at night, the other three teammates saw Zhao Ying walk up to Jiang Shan for the first time, and the two whispered something, then Zhao Ying took half a tube of toothpaste expressionlessly, and hid in front of Jiang Shan alone. I brushed my teeth by the side of the road.

...?
Yes, really awesome.

And because Jiang Shan at the gas station took the initiative to go to the warehouse, Zhang Zheng was too embarrassed to make a face, otherwise he should have been the one going to the warehouse.

So in fact, everyone's attitude towards Jiang Shan is somewhat complicated now. On the one hand, they still instinctively dislike this "surviving" alien, and on the other hand, they feel that Jiang Shan is not that scary. Her various behaviors all show a normal human behavior.

Maybe it's the kind of human being with a strong psychological quality.

In the cockpit, several people communicated with each other, only lip-syncing but no sound: "We can arrive before the sun goes down tomorrow..."
