Chapter 23: The Offense and Defense Have Changed!
Chapter 23: The Offense and Defense Have Changed!
At the entrance to the cellar.
Lu Yao poked her head out, while Yuan Tu sat quietly beside her, watching with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
I thought you would keep hiding forever.
"Didn't you already explain my current predicament to me? I have no choice!"
After climbing out, Lu Yao glanced around and frowned, saying, "Where are they? I'm already out and they still haven't shown up? Even if they want to sell me out, they should at least show up and explain themselves, right?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Tu merely frowned, a complex expression appearing in his eyes.
If it weren't for Erhu, they might still be living in hiding here.
But it is precisely because of Erhu that everyone can finally be free.
They're all dead.
Yuan Tu took a deep breath, turned his head to look in the direction he came from, and said calmly, "Erhu wanted to betray you, but Kuishan wouldn't agree, and Ye Ge was on his side. The two of them killed everyone else, including Erhu..."
What he said was very simple, just like he was simply stating a fact.
But Lu Yao remained silent.
Judging from the other party's reaction, and the fact that no one has come out yet, it seems that what Yuan Tu said was true.
He can now ensure that his own will is not affected, meaning that this ability of the far-reaching plan does not affect the will of others.
"May I ask why?"
Lu Yao stood beside the cellar and spoke.
His conversation with Yuantu was not quiet; it could be heard by Lao Gao and Liu Qi inside the passage.
Old Gao had already adjusted his direction, carefully and slowly protruding the muzzle of his gun, aiming it at the distant figure who was talking to Lu Yao.
If this person has any other intentions, he will not hesitate to try to shoot.
"Erhu is dying. His contamination is severe, and he needs an antidote. You, as his hostage, are the most valuable hard currency."
Yuan Tu sighed and said, "Actually, there are people who don't want to do this, but Erhu's ability can influence other people's minds, so they choose to stand on the opposite side."
Lu Yao remained silent, after all, he wasn't sure if what Yuan Tu said was true.
But the other party made one correct point.
The contaminated people do need an antidote, a fact that Ali and his colleagues can attest to.
Erhu could understand that he had other ideas.
However, Lu Yao now has other plans.
He needed to leave this place, and he also needed a completely safe place, at least a place where he wouldn't be easily discovered. At the same time, they also needed to make contact with the natives of the post-apocalyptic world.
This distant figure is a genuine post-apocalyptic native, and also an extraordinary being.
They are the best choice for them.
"Did Kuishan ask you to take me away before he died?" Lu Yao asked, frowning.
"right!"
Yuan Tu nodded, somewhat disdainfully saying, "Bringing you along means I'm bound to run into some trouble, but my abilities lean towards tracking, which should ensure your safety. It's up to you. We must leave here before dark, and we might even have to..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lao Gao had already come out of the cellar with a gun in his hand, the dark muzzle pointing directly at Yuan Tu.
Seeing Lao Gao suddenly appear, fully armed, Yuan Tu was quite shocked.
When did this guy appear?
There was clearly only Lu Yao's presence here.
Unless this person has been living in the cellar all along without anyone knowing it.
In other words, this person has been living right under their noses the whole time?
"He showed no murderous intent; we can trust him!"
Old Gao frowned slightly and said, "You can understand what he's saying? What does he mean?"
Liu Qi also climbed out of the cellar, ignoring his surroundings, and immediately hid behind Lao Gao, peering at the distant map.
Is this what the apocalyptic natives are like?
Aside from being a bit tanned, there doesn't seem to be anything special about him.
Far-reaching vision: !!!
Why is there another one?
How many people are hiding in this cellar?
Damn it, they've been hiding here for so long, why haven't they ever found any trace of each other?
He said we had to leave, and that he was confident I wouldn't be discovered.
Lu Yao explained Yuan Tu's words and whispered, "It seems he's telling the truth. Kui Shan and the others might be dead. We can leave here with him first."
Yuan Tu couldn't understand what Lu Yao and the others were saying, and stood there frowning, deep in thought.
But then, Lu Yao suddenly turned his head and said, "Take us with you. We need a safe place, and it can't be too close to those settlements."
Yuan Tu frowned but didn't speak. Instead, he stared at Lao Gao and sized him up, keeping a wary eye on him.
He could tell that this guy with the gun was no ordinary person!
They are definitely not the kind of people that can be cultivated in an ordinary gathering place.
This is a soldier, and the kind of soldier who absolutely obeys orders!
"you?"
Yuan Tu frowned and said in a deep voice, "Kui Shan only told me to take you with me to escape, he didn't say I had to take anyone else, besides, those two people are of unknown origin!"
"They are my friends, they came to save me!"
Lu Yao didn't go into too much detail, but continued, "Since you're leaving, take us with you. You have no choice now."
After saying that, he pointed to Lao Gao, or more precisely, to the gun in Lao Gao's hand.
Surely a superhuman skilled in tracking can't withstand bullets at such close range?
Yuan Tu was naturally aware of this, and his expression was extremely grim.
I originally thought the advantage was on his side.
The results of it?
In the blink of an eye, he became a prisoner.
"What did you say to him? Do you need me to shoot?" Old Gao asked in a low voice.
Lu Yao explained, "I asked him to take us to a safe place, preferably away from the gathering area, since it's not convenient for us to have contact with these people."
"Ask him if he knows any places like air-raid shelters. These places have natural advantages and are among the best strongholds that are easy to defend and difficult to attack."
Old Gao hurriedly reminded him, "If not, then let him take us to the city as much as possible. Although there is a zombie crisis, your previous survival experience is a good example. We can use the city as a base. Zombies are not completely invincible! Just be careful of those lunatics."
They are professionals after all; they picked out the place for them as soon as they opened their mouths.
Lu Yao also felt that air-raid shelters were a good choice.
If you really can't find it, going back to the city doesn't seem so bad, as long as you avoid those lunatics.
He then relayed Lao Gao's words to Yuan Tu, wanting to see what he thought.
"An air-raid shelter? I know a location, but it's not far from the Starry Sky Area. Are you sure you want to go?"
Yuan Tu frowned and sneered, "Tell your friend to put down his gun. If I die, no one will guide you. If Kui Shan knew you were hiding so well, he definitely wouldn't have chosen to save you!!!"
