Longmen Memoirs

Chapter 1: Many things to come

There was electricity in the black wall. Lao Gai and Valanto led the infected mechanics to find the power supply device of the black wall. The workers dismantled the two turbines that were originally used for hydropower generation and used the parts on the turbines to make ends meet. Part of the power supply equipment in the black wall has been repaired. Fortunately, the wire tubes inside the black wall have not been damaged. Although many lines have been aged and damaged to varying degrees after being abandoned for more than ten years, causing short circuits from time to time, at least Still available.

The inner guards initially destroyed the power supply and logistics host of Black Wall, but after all, the inner guards did not completely blow up the building. The damage they could cause was limited to the facilities themselves except for the personnel of Black Wall, and semi-circular buildings like Black Wall were Permanent fortress-type fortifications are difficult to completely destroy unless large-yield Originium explosives are used.

The internal guards who were responsible for dealing with the black wall had limited manpower, and there was no need to make the matter too public. The mobilization of troops and supplies would inevitably cause greater turmoil.

It would be better to say that the Black Wall is just a secret case to the internal guards. The internal guards have encountered more than one such secret case in their long career. They only destroyed the entrance to the Black Wall, destroyed important equipment, took away information and cleaned up the place. In addition, they continue to follow the clues to hunt down the remnants of the great rebellion that have not yet been cleaned up, and a black wall is not really important to them. Moreover, the location here is too hidden and remote, unless they are insiders, otherwise It is difficult to find this place, and the remnants are not fools and will not cling to an exposed stronghold.

Chen Mo would consider this. On the one hand, the location of the black wall is hidden. For a group of infected people who had just retreated and fought with the Ursus army, a hidden fortification that could accommodate everyone was far better than rebuilding it in the wilderness. Building a new camp is much safer, and winter is coming soon. There is not much time left for the infected to rebuild a new home. Injured soldiers cannot be placed in the cold night. The tents cannot block the wind and rain outside, which will continue to aggravate their condition. The injury worsened.

On the other hand, the internal guards who knew about the existence of the black wall must have been the same group more than ten years ago. According to 052, could the original internal guards have imagined that a group of infected people occupied the black wall? Except for 052 , very few people know about it and can think of it in time. If the black wall is exposed again, it probably has a lot to do with 052. It can also show that 052's words are not trustworthy, but 052, who is not trustworthy, told Chen Mo in advance. Regarding the camp being exposed, if his target was the infected from the beginning, he could have waited for the Ursus army to catch the camp by surprise, and the infected would have suffered heavy losses.

Chen Mo even suspected that 052 had predicted that they would choose this place when they asked him to meet here.

What is his plan?

Did he plan to annihilate all the infected here? No, this was different from the information revealed in his words.

He wants to monitor the movements of infected people?Or maybe he has some other hidden purpose.

Chen Mo couldn't figure out what Internal Guard 052 was thinking. It was unclear whether this person was an enemy or a friend, but from another perspective, no matter whether 052 was an enemy or a friend, the infected soldiers had no other choice.

They are always at a disadvantage.

For the current infected people and the camp, they urgently need a place to stay, and there is no better place than the current black wall. In this building half-buried in the canyon, they can completely hide from the Ursans. A possible tracking and manhunt in the wilderness could follow.

Considering the internal defense's calculations is what Chen Mo should do, not what the soldiers should consider. At the same time, surviving is what both Chen Mo and the infected must make.

The soldiers can only look at the present, but Chen Mo can't. As one of the commanders, he must ensure the safety of the soldiers and the infected.

Chen Mo didn't know how the two Sarkazis repaired the power supply in the black wall. He didn't understand this aspect, but he had heard from the infected that for this matter, everyone in the team knew some technology in this area. The people were all gathered together by the two Sakaz. To be precise, it was Lao Gai who brought them together.

Chen Mo guessed that Lao Gai would come to him again soon, probably for the power supply equipment. He might not be able to guarantee that it could be completely repaired, so he could only make the equipment work for a period of time by tearing down the east wall and patching up the west wall. As for whether it could be done? How long he would last, he couldn't guarantee.

He came to him, probably to get supplies from Kazdale, new supplies. He might have drawn up a long list. This old guy is very shrewd. He probably knew in his heart that he was looking for other people in the camp. It didn't work, not even Tallulah, who couldn't boast that Haikou would definitely deliver supplies to them according to the list.

But Chen Mo can. If Chen Mo is willing to speak, even His Highness will definitely find a way to transport the things, not to mention the group of Sakaz in black clothes.

After all, for some Sakaz, he is an obstacle that cannot be bypassed. Even if his news is blocked by the nobles, there are some things and some people that, once they happen to him, leave traces that are difficult to erase. go.

Chen Mo has been avoiding Lao Gai these days.

This reminded him of Ceria who had to pay. People said it was the uncle who owed money, but Ceria's style was exactly the opposite. She was the one who had to pay.

Ms. Seria has always been confident about this. Chen Mo has always felt that she might be suitable for developing into the gray industry. After all, she seems to be quite talented in this area.

Chen Mo knew that he couldn't hide. The black wall was very big. To some extent, Chen Mo himself didn't know how big the black wall was and how many layers it had. In the past few days, the infected people had settled here, although they entered through the darkness at first. When you see the dried blood and battle scratches left behind, as well as the cell-like rooms, you will feel a little infiltrative, but these infiltrative scenes are not really scary to the suffering infected people. Dare to move, but in the past few days, the arrival of the infected has made this decaying building a little more popular.

With the power running, the lighting equipment in the black wall can still work normally. Although there are only a few lines, the power supply also prevents the infected from wasting on unnecessary places, so that there are many more lines on the black wall. Torches used for lighting.

Looking at the original lighting method illuminating the modern building with black walls, people suddenly have an illusion, as if two unrelated things are pulled together, weird and incompatible.

But at least the originally gloomy and strange building with the light and heat of the torches makes people feel less scary. No one is used to darkness, and everyone likes to stay in places with light, because light inherently makes people feel safe.

Chen Mo was not surprised at all by Lao Gai's arrival. Similar to him, Lao Gai was not surprised at all. Watching Chen Mo sign his name on his long list, Lao Gai seemed very calm.

Not many people know about the relationship between the man in front of him and Sakaz and the Sakaz royal court. Lao Gai himself doesn’t know it too well, but there is one thing that old Sakaz is sure of, and it has become more and more obvious since he came here. Certainly, if it was something that the person in front of him was willing to guarantee, Kazdel would probably not refuse.

As for the reason, perhaps the word power cannot be bypassed. In fact, what Kazdaele has paid is not too much, but in the eyes of old Sakaz, if this group of infected people can succeed in the future, Kazdaele will only gain more than what he paid. More, using some supplies in exchange for a possible boost, and in the future it is possible to weaken Ursus' internal strength and win over a group of strong infected people. It is worth it to Kazdel, even if it cannot be Kazdel The loss is not big either.

Old Sakaz actually doesn't like to think about this aspect. He doesn't care about these things. He is a person who only cares about the work in front of him. But after coming to the infected camp, he will inevitably have these thoughts. After all, he is still like this for the time being. A member of a group of infected people.

The Sakaz's previous lives were no better than those of the infected.

"By the way, have you asked Tallulah about this?"

After returning the list to Lao Gai, Chen Mo suddenly asked, and Lao Gai took it and folded it.

"I have informed Miss Leader beforehand."

"What did she say?"

"Miss Leader's answer was very direct. She said she couldn't make the decision in this matter." Lao Gai answered calmly, his eyes falling on Chen Mo.

Chen Mo looked complicated.

"Then she asked you to come to me?"

Sakaz nodded naturally.

"Miss Leader trusts you very much." Old Sakaz said again, his tone seemed to be comforting.

"Yes." Chen Mo waved his hand, "After all, this is something she really can't bear to do, and I'm the only one who's good at it."

Chen Mo's tone was a little helpless and self-deprecating.

Old Sakaz didn't seem to hear Chen Mo's words. Seeing that Chen Mo didn't continue, he was content with the long list in his arms and prepared to hand it over to the team that contacted Kazdel next time.

Chen Mo owed another favor. Fortunately, he was a very thick-faced person, so he was quite familiar with it.

Life within the black wall is getting back on track much faster than expected, and the infected people's attitude towards accepting the new life is more natural than Chen Mo imagined. This is a kind of agglomeration for people living in the wilderness. Normality, because of the existence of natural disasters, is not like a mobile city. They have to be prepared to move at any time. It is difficult to truly live somewhere for a long time. For the infected, because of the pickets, their migration is Just a lot more times.

The black wall is at least a stable and safe place to live. The thick mountain wall brings the infected not depression, but peace of mind. It is difficult for ordinary people to understand this feeling. There is a vast land outside, but for the infected In other words, the vast land is not as safe as the black wall.

Chen Mo never thought that one day the heavy black wall for him would become a haven for another group of people. What is ridiculous is that the guys who originally came out from here, what they should have done was to take the lives of this group of infected people. , but now more than ten years later, their lair has become a haven for infected people to settle down.

The world is always so absurd, it can make good people turn into bad people, and it can also make bad people wake up slowly. It always makes people confused about what they should look like and what they should become in the future.

Chen Mo also couldn't tell whether the black wall could be regarded as a reform of evil. More than ten years later, perhaps the people who built this building did not expect that such a scene would happen today.

But Chen Mo thinks this should be a good thing.

There are squares and rooms in the black wall. Although most of the original things are in decay, some things can still be used. Those facilities that were once used for training can still be reused. The infected are not picky. From their perspective, Although the sky cannot be seen above the head, it also means that the Ursans and the infected pickets cannot see them, which makes the infected more at ease than anything else.

And when the facilities here are repaired, not to mention restored to their original appearance, even if it is only half of it, it will be much better for the infected than a camp in the wilderness. Although it is still not as good as a mobile city, the infected are still I haven’t really thought about mobile cities.

If Tallulah wants the infected to believe in her, she can't rely solely on ideals. She also wants to let the infected know that she can make their lives better, and nothing is more powerful than something that can be touched and seen. Confirm what people think in their hearts.

In Blessings and Misfortune, the infected lost a home and found a new home. To say that they have encountered other good things during this period besides losing the camp they spent so much effort to build, the black wall is the biggest for the infected. good thing.

The team suffered a lot of losses this time, and many things need to be resolved slowly. Chen Mo is still thinking about the mobile urban farm promised by Cannot. They now barely have electricity and can supply the space and conditions needed for the indoor farm. When Cannot Only when his agreement can be fulfilled will the infected people truly stabilize.

As for whether Black Wall can be used as one of the long-term strongholds, Chen Mo is not sure, but there is no doubt that they cannot leave now. Even if they consider moving, they have to wait for the soldiers to recover from their injuries and the current camp to stabilize temporarily. Only then can we make plans again.

The journey south will continue. Ursus has been alert this time. There is not much time left for them. The infected team must develop and grow as soon as possible.

What reaction will this encounter with the infected division have on Ursus? What reaction will it have on the infected people who know about it? These things need to be clarified as soon as possible in order to formulate the next action plan. .

As for the Black Wall, it will no longer be able to accommodate the addition of other infected people in the short term. Before it is determined that those infected people are worthy of true trust, the Black Wall must ensure secrecy.

The contact with Kazdaele must be made as soon as possible. There is no need to send a small team of soldiers to try to get in touch with Kazdaele. The original route is no longer safe. The infected have moved their camps. It is also necessary to convey this information to Kazdaele and formulate new plans. merging route.

Chen Mo found that there were still many things that they needed to consider now.

Regardless of the various internal problems caused by a battle, the wounded, logistics, and the subsequent chain reactions, they also need to know as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, the current reach of the camp is still too small, the information is blocked, and there is no channel for passing information to each other and no way to ensure contact.

Chen Mo thought that he still had many meetings to hold, about the present and the future.

But before the meeting, he had to see someone.

When he saw the sniper again, he was lying in a certain room. The original dormitory still had the same iron door with a narrow viewing opening, and the same steel frame bed, but the difference was that the lights were on in the room.

The sniper's treatment was good. The camp's electricity was given priority to the location of the wounded. Compared with the wounded who were gathered together for unified care, he, the guest, received special treatment.

"Judging from your expression, you might not like me very much?"

After Chen Mo came in, Qiao and Sasha looked at him at the same time. It could be seen with the naked eye that Qiao's expression instantly became extremely disgusting.

Chen Mo felt that he should remove the possibility.

Chapter 1: Long-term worries and near-term worries

"Sasha, you go out first."

"Ah."

Chen Mo turned sideways and watched Sasha coming from Qiao walking in front of him. He seemed a little worried and turned back, his eyes fell on Qiao, and then turned to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo nodded slightly, Sasha walked out and closed the door.

Quiet in the room.

"I don't like to see you very much."

Qiao said, watching Chen Mo walk to the bed and sit on the chair where Sasha had just been.

"It's obvious." Chen Mo didn't refute: "How about this apprentice I found for you?"

The sniper's gaze softened.

"Except for being a boring gourd like you, he's pretty good. He's just a little bit stupider."

"It's better to be stupid, but you can't handle it if you're too smart."

The sniper was stunned for a moment and looked at Chen Mo suspiciously.

"I thought you were scolding me?"

Chen Mo smiled.

The sniper's eyes were even more suspicious. He knew that Snake was full of evil and small-minded. It was really hard for people to believe that what he just said was a curse.

Chen Mo skipped this topic.

"I asked the medical staff. The injury is okay. I have a few broken bones. I just need to recover for a while."

"It's not your injury."

"Don't say that. The pain is in your body, but the pain is in my heart. Do you understand? Seeing you injured makes me sadder than myself." Chen Mo said sincerely.

The sniper looked like a ghost.

"I don't see how sad you are."

"If I get really sad, it wouldn't be too embarrassing. I'm sure you won't be able to bear it either." Chen Mo didn't even bother to do anything perfunctory. He still sounded serious and sincere.

The sniper retched several times.

"Disgusting, why didn't I realize you were so thick-skinned before?" He seemed to have gotten to know Chen Mo again, his eyes full of disbelief and disgust.

"I really mean it."

"Fuck your sincerity."

"Alas." Chen Mo sighed helplessly.

The sniper looked at him pretending and finally couldn't bear it any longer.

He waved his hand.

"Okay, don't pretend to be here. I know you have something to say, otherwise you wouldn't come here specially."

"..."

"I know about the crossbowman team." After a few seconds of silence, Chen Mo spoke. The sniper's pupils shrank slightly, and he looked slightly away from Chen Mo.

"yes."

"The soldiers could not find their bodies, they detonated the shells on the position and there was nothing left there."

The sniper didn't answer.

"You don't need to tell me these things."

"You all know that, but I think I still have to come and tell you in person. If the crossbowmen team hadn't destroyed the artillery position, it would have been difficult for the guerrillas and shield guards to hold on."

"...No one can care about anyone else on the battlefield. I'm not a rookie who just entered the battlefield. You don't need to teach me these principles. I know them very well." He said, smiling, and the smile only fleetingly disappeared. Thinking of something, the smile faded as soon as it appeared.

He opened his mouth slightly and finished speaking.

"They saved my life."

He said this with a calm tone, but the hands on the bedside tightly squeezed the sheets.

"They not only saved your life, they also saved the shield guards and other infected people."

"So their deaths were worth it?" The sniper looked at Chen Mo and stared into his eyes.
