【178】Farewell
"Xiao Chu, we have to take the lead." Li Yang smiled and stretched out his hand to Chu Xiang.
Chu Xiang did not refuse. In fact, everyone got along well in the past two days. Chu Xiang was in a bad mood and a little cold, which did not mean that he was bad. His thoughts and morals were still very good. "Old Li, I thought I was going to capture me in such a big formation."
Li Yang laughed: "I'm afraid these people will not obey you. You are a good guy, but your personality is too strong. The reason why I left until you came here was to say thank you in person."
Ding Beiwei, He Cailin, Lu Wei, Xia Guangjin and others also came over and shook hands with Chu Xiang one by one and said, "Thank you, Captain Chu, you didn't save us and escort them all the way. I wonder what other accidents we will have. Now let's go to the Beijing base with us, let's express our feelings."
Chu Xiang waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I have my own feelings. I have my affairs. Everyone has their world. When we meet a gentleman by chance, let's part here. Let's have a good time and we will talk about it again and again if we have the chance."
Jiang Dainian took Chu Xiang's hand and said, "I understand your temper. I will use a word to describe it. It's cold, but if I have suffered so many setbacks like you, I will definitely not have a good impression of Beijing. If I let me enter Beijing, I will definitely feel awkward."
Chu Xiang said: "Jiang Dainian, I said, who have heard nonsense? What awkwardness to me? I like to enter Beijing, our great capital, everyone yearns for it."
Jiang Danian smiled mysteriously and said, "It's nothing, don't worry, I will help you find the girl named Cheng when I go back. I won't say it anymore, I won't say it anymore, I'll take the lead."
Ding Beiwei said: "Captain Chu, you have eaten and lived with us these two days. I think I can't reach your level yet. You are very good. I really hope to make friends with you."
Chu Xiang smiled and said, "Aren't we friends now?"
In fact, Chu Xiang is a soft-hearted person. After the apocalypse convoy dragged these people, the food expenses naturally increased. However, Chu Xiang has never made any special decisions. As long as he has food, he will not be short of them. He even gave the base car to these old men to live in at night. Although he seemed a little arrogant, Li Yang and others heard Zhang Hongbing, who was talking big, talked about Chu Xiang's love history and knew that he had an indescribable resistance to Beijing. So everyone can understand Chu Xiang's mood at this moment, and no one really thinks he looks down on these people.
Li Yang followed Chu Xiang's words and said, "Yes, we are friends. Although it's only been two short days, we know friends at the moment of life and death regardless of age. I just call you "Little Brother, don't you really go to the base with us? Let me hug you and answer your grace for letting the bed last night."
Chu Xiang felt a little embarrassed. He was so enthusiastic, but when he first met them, he was still cold. Chu Xiang said, "No, you see so many of us, and there are other things to do. Let's leave here."
Li Yang nodded. He stopped saying anything and waved to the back, "Everyone get in the car and set off."
A company's troops opened the way, and a company's troops held the tail. Li Yang's convoy drove into the fourth ring road. Zhang Hongbing quietly said to Chu Xiang: "Cross Chu. All of these people are unknown. You should really ask what they are doing."
Chu Xiang said: "What are you asking about this? Do you still expect them to find you a good job in Beijing?"
Zhang Hongbing said: "I don't want to be a minister now. Let's go to Beijing for a while and then leave. We have food, drink and freedom outside. What's the point of becoming an official now? This kind of troubled times is the fate of worrying about getting angry."
Chu Xiang said: "That's why I ignore their identities so that people will think that we have a plan. When we are kind enough to save people and help them, we will make others think that they are conspiracy to flatter us. Then we will be wronged and die. Let's go. It's getting late, we will pass the outpost checkpoint."
Zhou Muqing and others had already undergone the inspection and registration. Her face was a little disappointed. Seeing Chu Xiang coming, she walked to Chu Xiang with a sad face, "Chu Xiang. Sister Su and I want to take a step first."
Chu Xiang wondered: "What's wrong? Why don't you go together?"
Zhou Muqing said: "Just just now, the outpost has contacted the reception desk of the Beijing base. Someone from me, Sister Su, and Fang Yuxuan are here to pick me up."
Chu Xiang suddenly realized that the identities of these three people were all extraordinary. Although she didn't know what Fang Yuxuan was from her daily performance, her identity was absolutely prominent. The outpost asked how they dared not report their identities, just like Li Yang and others who were treated with special treatment just now.
Seeing that Zhou Muqing was a little sad, Chu Xiang comforted her and said, "The relationship is good. You can go in and settle down first. After we have been inspected, we can be considered a place to live in the Third Ring Road."
Zhou Muqing nodded, "Well, I'm waiting for you inside. You must go to find me after you go in. I believe it's easy to find me. I'll wait for you, don't let me down."
Chu Xiang nodded solemnly. To be honest, he had a good impression of Zhou Muqing, but thinking that he was a big star and he was mingled with Zhang Jingyao and Xie Shanshan, even if he had that heart, he would not dare to express anything to Zhou Muqing. However, judging from the relationship between him and Zhang Jingyao and Xie Shanshan, Zhou Muqing seemed to be very attached to Chu Xiang, and she didn't care about the unknown relationship between him and Zhang Jingyao and Xie Shanshan, but she was about to part. She was about to leave. What Zhou Muqing thought about Chu Xiang was unwilling to explore again.
Zhou Muqing walked away, she hid behind Feifei and looked at Chu Xiang secretly. Su Yulian walked to Chu Xiang with the box containing the dragon head, "Chu Xiang, I want to say thank you sincerely. You fulfilled your promise, and we are all proud of you."
Chu Xiang and Su Yulian don’t have much contact with each other, but Su Yulian was one of the first team members to follow Chu Xiang. She is very stubborn and almost even gets her life for a dragon head. Fortunately, she has returned to Beijing safely and has achieved a perfect merit.
Chu Xiang said: "It's nothing. Even if I am a promising young man, I will make some contribution to the country." Su Yulian smiled, "This contribution is not a little bit. Only those who have experienced it know the hardships and dangers. Chu Xiang, I will never forget you."
Chu Xiang blushed a little, and he joked: "Don't, if you always remember me, your husband must be jealous."
But Su Yulian put aside her arrogance for the first time. She curled her lips and said childishly: "He dares! Besides, I don't have a boyfriend either. I don't know what Beijing is like now. I will settle down and go to find you. As long as you have registered at various checkpoints, you can't escape."
Chu Xiang said: "I don't plan to run away, but I may not be staying in Beijing for too long. If you have something to do, just be busy."
Su Yulian didn't say anything else, because Fang Yuxuan was anxious to say goodbye to Chu Xiang. Chu Xiang had a good impression of this little loli and would tease her when she was fine, but Fang Yuxuan was a little devil. Every time, Chu Xiang blushed and retreated.
"Brother Chu, we have advanced to the base. I heard that you may have to undergo a lot of inspections and isolation, but I can't contact my family now, otherwise I'll bring everyone in with you. After we settle down, we will come to see you. You must not leave early."
Chu Xiang said, "I understand. When we came, we used up all the weapons and needed to be supplemented before we left. Don't worry. Looking back, I asked your parents to invite me to dinner. After all, I saved your life. I have asked me to pay a lot of snacks these days, so I can't always suffer."
Fang Yuxuan said: "This is absolutely fine. It's a little bit to invite you to have a meal for the rest of your life."
Chu Xiang said happily: "Don't, if you treat me to a meal for the rest of your life, I'm not a slutty guy who's having a soft meal?"
Fang Yuxuan also laughed and said, "But your face is not white at all. Besides, you are not soft. You are very manly."
Chu Xiang joked: "It seems like you know, do you know what it means to be a man?"
Fang Yuxuan leaned into Chu Xiang's ear and said, "Of course I know. Don't think that my face as a child is the child's mind. When you saved me, I scratched my chest and hurt my heart. So I will never forget you in my life. I will hold a hatred for you and take revenge on you and never let you go. Don't think of running away, I will find you back at the end of the world."
Chu Xiang wiped the cold sweat from his head. Fang Yuxuan's chest was really big, but she was so childish. The time she saved her was really holding her chest, otherwise she would have fallen off the bridge. She was so panicked that she didn't even appreciate what her chest felt. Unexpectedly, she couldn't forget it. She wanted to take revenge on herself, so she was so fainted.
Chu Xiang coughed and said, "When I leave Beijing, if you have the ability, go outside and find me."
Fang Yuxuan said proudly: "Do you think I dare not? Then I will run out alone and call Sister Jingyao and the others. If you don't come to save me, I will feed the zombies."
Zhang Jingyao and Xie Shanshan love each other Fang Yuxuan very much. If they knew she was in danger, these two women would definitely not stand by. Chu Xiang surrendered and said, "Can I accept it? On behalf of our eight generations of ancestors, I would like to thank you. You should pack up your own things and leave."
Seeing Zhang Debing coming towards him, Chu Xiang understood, and said, "Debing, you must want to go back to your army to report. Go, don't forget that there are friends here who care about you wherever you go."
Zhang Debing hugged Chu Xiang, and a big man actually shed tears, "Cross Chu, I am a soldier, I'm sorry!"
Chu Xiang patted Zhang Debing on the shoulder and said, "Debing, you are not sorry for anyone, you are worthy of any person or any organization! You are a good person. You have completed the task. If Platoon Commander Xu and other comrades in the army know each other, they will be in peace."
Zhang Debing hugged Chu Xiang again, and the members of the team carrying out the mission flashed through his mind one by one. These comrades are no longer alive. If they hadn't met Chu Xiang, Zhang Debing might have died long ago. "Captain Chu, thank you!" Zhang Debing choked up. At this moment, he could not think of any other words or methods except for a simple thank you.
Chu Xiang said: "What are our brothers doing when they say these things? Go back to the army and do it well. With your strength, you will not be afraid of not being able to make a name for yourself in the future."
Zhang Debing said: "But I still hope to stay in the Apocalypse Convoy to be a machine gunner, and I won't change it even if I give it to me as a president."
Chu Xiang laughed: "The world of the Apocalypse Team is too small. We should develop well and don't embarrass us brothers."
Zhang Hongbing also walked up to hug Zhang Debing, "Debing, let me tell you the truth. I took the jade pendant last time, and I will give it to you now."
Zhang Debing punched Zhang Hongbing: "You guy who is keen on money, haha, keep it, I just want to look good. The value geometry doesn't matter."
Zhang Hongbing said: "Yes, its own value is not important, but this is something that can see the friendship between our brothers. I personally put it on you. You can't take it down without my approval."
Zhang Debing laughed and said, "You said your virtue, but I don't know that the local people thought we were playing Beibei Mountain. I can tell you that my sexual orientation is absolutely normal."
Zhang Hongbing jumped up, "Oh, this makes you say something like I have a problem. If Xiaohua is here, she will be in a hurry with me!"
Chu Xiang quickly broke up and said, "Okay, don't argue anymore. You have no problem, and I have no problem. The convoy of the land is coming. Let the Debing and the others go."
Originally, everyone got on the bus, but Feifei suddenly ran down again. Chu Xiang usually had no social relationship with him because he felt it was too difficult to communicate with a sissy, and Feifei felt that Chu Xiang was not humorous enough, so the two of them had basically never talked about anything.
"You are a piece of wood," said Feifei ran to Chu Xiang.
Chu Xiang was stunned: "It's inexplicable. I said to Brother Fei, what do you mean? I didn't offend you." Fei Fei twisted her waist and said: "I said you are a piece of wood! Others say you are cold, but in fact I said you are just a piece of wood or a piece of dead wood! You don't understand the charm, you let your love down, you are heartless."
Chu Xiang was very angry: "Brother Fei, you want to fight. If I understand your charm and live up to your affection, then we will be in a collusion. I am extremely disgusted with this tone!"
Feifei pinched the orchid and pointed: "If you dare to let our affection down, I will fight you for the best!"
After saying that, Feifei twisted and ran back to the car and left. Chu Xiang looked at the back of the convoy and said, "I'm crazy."
Although he was about to enter Beijing, Chu Xiang had some idea after his two wives' careful guidance last night, so he was no longer so depressed. However, when he watched a few friends leave, his mood was a little depressed. Fortunately, most of the members of the Apocalypse team were there, so there was no need to be too pessimistic.
It is easy to pass the checkpoint on the Fifth Ring Road. Chu Xiang is useless to even have a fake name. Although Zhang Hongbing strongly suggests changing his name, Chu Xiang doesn't want to be a human being with his tail between his tail. The director Gao came to catch him if he is capable, because he is afraid that he is not a man.
After entering the Fifth Ring Road, the building that came into view seemed very desolate and dilapidated. Gunshots rang out from time to time. The battle within the Fifth Ring Road was still ongoing, and the battle to clear the zombies at the Fourth Ring Road came to an end. However, it was still a dangerous area. People within the Third Ring Road were prohibited from going out.
In fact, Chu Xiang didn't have much chance to go deep into Beijing. He used to be just a workshop worker in a suburban tire factory. He originally had to spend 2,000 yuan a month. In addition to food and accommodation, he also had to hook up with Cheng Xue, so he had no extra money to come to the city to spend and sightsee. Unexpectedly, he finally had the opportunity to see the style of Beijing today. But things are different, he didn't want to be depressed and his mood began to decline again.
The checkpoints on the Fourth Ring Road are not strict, but large weapons are not allowed to be carried, and only one person is allowed to hold a self-defense pistol. After all, the zombies within the Fourth Ring Road have been almost completely cleaned up, and it is useless to hold too many weapons.
However, the checkpoints at the Third Ring Road are completely different. The entire Third Ring Road is full of sandbags and barbed wire mesh. Behind the sandbag are machine gunners who are fully focused. They are all guarding against the space outside the Third Ring Road as if they are facing a great enemy. The barbed wire mesh is at least ten meters high. Even if you are swallows, Li San, you have to worry about it. What's more, there is a lookout every few hundred meters, with snipers on it. At night, the searchlight lights lit up, and they can shoot you a bird.
When everyone entered the checkpoint, the first thing they did was to be told to hand over all weapons, including sabers. Chu Xiang had already expected this, so he didn't bring any weapons at all. The real weapon was in his body, and it would be useless to use an X-machine to check it.
Everyone handed over the pistols and sabers, no one had any objections, and this clause was applicable to any base. However, the following announcement made everyone unable to accept it. The platoon leader at the checkpoint said: "All property is opened for inspection and handover, and we will exchange you new coins based on the current market value."
Zhang Hongbing was the first to object: "Why? We don't want those waste paper. Can't we keep our own gold, silver and precious metals?"
The platoon leader said firmly: "No! This is the base's rule. If everyone brings a large amount of property into the base, the base's monetary system will soon collapse. Either you return it or accept exchange, we do not accept the deposit business."
Chu Xiang said without hesitation: "Exchange." Anyway, he was not interested in Zhang Hongbing's bunch of things, so it would be nice to exchange some new coins and keep flowers.
Chu Xiang spoke and Zhang Hongbing could only obey. Seeing a pile of gold, silver hand jewelry and jade artifacts being pulled into the sack by the soldiers, he was both angry and happy. He was angry that it was collected by him with great effort. He was happy that these stupid soldiers, more than half of them were fakes, and they didn't even recognize them.
However, Zhang Hongbing couldn't be happy for a long time. He rolled his eyes again when he grabbed 10,000 yuan in the pile of jadeware. There were more than 10,000 yuan in it, but so many things were only given 10,000 yuan in the new coins. What's the difference between snatching?
The platoon leader was very good. He explained carefully and patiently: "I'm sorry, everyone, the market has collapsed long ago. Now gold, silver and jade are not valuable. We say that according to national regulations, we can only exchange these."
Zhang Hongbing asked with a bitter face: "Then what did you say are valuable?"
The platoon leader said: "Diamonds, because they have few existing numbers, are the most solid currency at present."
Zhang Hongbing said, "Whoever has nothing to do to get a few diamonds? Where do you ask us to find them?" The platoon leader smiled and said, "Since these are your unexpected wealth, then don't worry about gains and losses. If you don't have idle people in the base, you can earn wealth by your own labor... Well, each person can keep a piece of jewelry. Everyone checks it again, and a lesbian will come in to assist in the inspection later. I hope you don't make us embarrassed."
The inspection procedure is very strict. Zhang Hongbing, who wanted to take possession of his own clothes, even the trousers were searched. Of course, the gay man checked him. After passing the property inspection, he was the registration room. This is the last registration procedure. After the screening of two outposts, the people who came here are very ordinary, but ordinary people are divided into different levels. There is no way. The original social system collapsed. Only two fools would call everyone equal. Besides, there seems to be no equal in peace and prosperity.
Because the registration procedure is extremely complicated and detailed, this process lasted for more than an hour. Finally, everyone received a form, and each person passed the checkpoint with the form. After passing the checkpoint, it was a disinfection inspection room. It mainly ruled out the possibility of carrying viruses into the base. There was an isolation procedure, but it was cancelled not long ago. Because the T virus has developed to this day, it rarely lurks for more than an hour after infection. It took more than an hour to get from the Fifth Ring Road to get here. In addition, registration, as long as you don’t get sick so far, it would be OK. Isolation is a waste of time and venue.
The first person to hand over the form was Zhang Jingyao. The fat aunt put on her glasses and read the text on the form word by word. Then she whispered to a gay man beside her, and finally covered her with bright red and passed the review seal and said, "Agree to release, tentatively, professional nurses will be sent to the career center to wait for the hospital to pick people."
A soldier came and left with Zhang Jingyao. Zhang Jingyao was a little reluctant. She wanted to go with everyone. Chu Xiang comforted her and said, "Okay, don't be afraid. We will go in later. Let's meet at the career center. If the base does not raise idle people, everyone will be assigned to work."
Chapter completed!
