When the four Shen Shi'an came out of the quarantine zone, it was already around ten o'clock the next morning. After leaving the shed, the face of the entire tobacco factory base was fully displayed.

After entering the gate is an irregular circular square. There is a sculptural fountain in the center of the square. The water nozzle has not sprayed water for a long time. On the left is a large green landscape and parking shed, and on the right is a rather elegant administrative building, which is a total of four floors, with dark blue glass windows shining dazzling in the sun.

Liu Fangzhou raised his hand to block the light, leaned against Shen Shi'an, and secretly suppressed the voice very low. "Shen, what about that note?"

If you are an evolutionary, please keep your identity confidential and prevent it from becoming a military experiment.

Because of this sentence on the note, he was scared last night and didn't sleep well. The "evolver" in this sentence obviously refers to the power person. If what is said on the note is true, the soldiers in the base will use the power person to experiment, then they are not sheep and tigers. He likes to dissect people, but he does n’t like to be dissected. In case this is really a place similar to a horror camp, it ’s not time to run.

Shen Shi'an held Shen Xun, carefully observed the surrounding environment, and whispered "Don't worry, watch for changes first."

The information contained in the note is undoubtedly frightening, but they are currently not sure whether the note is true or false. If it is true, then rash action will certainly attract the attention of the garrison; if it is false, the motives of the visitor are unknown, let alone rash action. Regardless of who is writing the note, since the other party is willing to take the risk of being discovered by the garrison to pass information to the newcomers in the quarantine zone, they will definitely contact them afterwards.

After receiving the note, the four of Shen Shi'an were particularly calm, but others were not necessarily. Especially the black and thin man identified by Liu Fangzhou as the same power, now has become a bird of surprise, holding his backpack tightly at the end of the team, trying to be farthest from the soldier who led the way.

After Shen Shi'an's gaze swept lightly from the other side, he soon ignored him. The area of ​​the square was wide. A group of people followed the soldiers for nearly two minutes before crossing the square. Shen Shi'an found a lot of signs along the road, either posted on the wall, hung on a tree, or handwritten with paint or other paint directly on the ground. Except for things absolutely prohibited in the twelve codes of conduct, the rest are all calling on survivors to participate in material collection operations

"Zombies are actually not terrible. It is up to you and me to defeat them", "Good action in collecting materials and getting everyone full", "Self-reliance and self-reliance", "Survivors are one family, and collecting materials depends on everyone" .

The slogans are so dense, maybe the base encountered any difficulties in searching for supplies.

After crossing the square, there is a row of two-story flats that look like ordinary employees' offices. Now they have been transformed into public event areas, which are also covered with slogans. The back of the flat building is divided into two pieces. One side is the production workshop of the tobacco factory and the other is the dormitory building. The canteen is diagonally in front of the dormitory building.

This is Shen Shi'an's first close contact with the survivors in the base. There are about 2,000 people standing in line. Most of them are thin and pale, with the most common characteristics of survivors in the last days. But his mental state seems to be quite good. Many people even raised their hands to say hello to the 20 newcomers.

The other people's congresses were on alert, only Liu Fangzhou was eager to greet him and greeted him with more enthusiasm.

"The canteen inside the base is open twice a day, at 10 am and 6 pm," said the leading soldier. "Food is not free. You can go to the administration building to receive work and change it through labor contributions. The scope of work is wide, from the simplest. There are cleaning and patrol guards, different job requirements are different, and the rewards are different. The higher the difficulty, the greater the contribution value. If you want to eat well, you can go out with the search team to collect supplies, regardless of the search It's up to you. "

During the soldier's introduction, Shen Shi'an was watching the cafeteria. His eyesight is outstanding. Through the long-lined team, he can clearly see that there are only two windows in the cafeteria. Four fully armed soldiers are guarded by the window. The survivors come forward in turn, according to some kind of work record card attached to the chest. Take your own food from the window. The whole "beating meal" process was fairly smooth, but whether it was the four muzzles used as a deterrent or the vaguely dissatisfied grievances in the team, it was obvious that the atmosphere between the survivors and the base garrison was not harmonious.

Shen Shi'an looked back thoughtfully and followed the leading soldier into the dormitory building. There are three dormitory buildings, each of which has four floors. There are aisles in them. After entering the lobby on the first floor, they go directly to the fourth floor of the third building.

"The three floors below are fully occupied, and there is only space on the fourth floor." The leading soldiers said upstairs and said, "Zombies have been cleaned up for a long time. The basic supplies are all provided. You may need to clean them yourself. The water from the building ca n’t come. You need to take the bucket to the first floor and the second floor to pick it up. The room is allocated by yourself. There is a minimum of four people and a maximum limit. You can live as you please. ”

He stepped on the last step and stopped at the entrance of the stairs. When all twenty people came up to concentrate, he put his right hand on the holster around his waist. He looked extremely serious. They can move freely. But it must be remembered that no violent acts and sabotage activities are allowed at the base. Once found, the consequences are at your own risk. "

Looking around for a week among 20 people, he said, "I hope everyone can make their own contributions and strive to build a better base. If you intend to join the search team to gather materials in the urban area, gather at the door at 7 am every morning. Everyone is welcome to register. If you have any other questions, you can go to the first floor of the administration building for consultation. "

After speaking, Li Zhengzheng saluted, turned and walked downstairs.

After the soldiers left, the new people dispersed, and Shen Shi'an and his party happened to be four people, so they randomly chose an empty dormitory, cleaned up together and temporarily moved in.

Since the soldiers said that they could move around except the administrative building, Shen Shi'an did not miss this good opportunity to investigate the situation. After a brief meal, Chen Nan stayed in the dormitory to guard the luggage. He took Shen Xun and Liu Fangzhou to turn the whole base together.

The tobacco factory is a little bigger than Shen Shian expected. It takes 48 minutes and 33 seconds to complete a full circle along the fence at normal speed.

The infrastructure inside is relatively complete. There is a dormitory and a cafeteria. There is also a basketball court behind the dormitory building.

In addition to the administrative building, the production workshop of the tobacco factory should be the most valuable building in the entire factory before the end of the world. It not only contains extremely modern assembly line production machinery, but also piles of tobacco and packaged cigarettes.

Shen Shi'an asked Liu Fangzhou to make sure that no one around him had collected a batch of non-smoke in the space, but this kind of thing is absolutely rare in the last days.

There should be a large green belt outside the production workshop. At this time, all the green fields were reclaimed into vegetable fields. The tender green plants had just taken the tip. Shen Shi'an barely recognized one of the sweet potato seedlings through the barbed wire, and the others could not be identified.

Caitian's protective measures are very strict, not only surrounding the barbed wire, but also installing a camera on each of the four corners. Liu Fangzhou walked around the barbed wire twice. "Hey, this is still like a thief. Brother Brother, why do you say they don't use abilities to directly spawn, how hard it is to grow and waste time."

Liu Fangzhou can only sense the color, intensity, and volume of light groups corresponding to different targets, and cannot distinguish each other's specific abilities. However, it stands to reason that if the light groups are similar in color, the powers they represent should have more or less in common. There are about 150 psionicists in the base, and 17 of them are the same as Chen Nan in the color of the light group. If their abilities are also related to the plant growth, they can be directly responsible for planting vegetables. Why?

Oh. Liu Fangzhou remembered. The note stated that the exposed power was to be caught for experiments.

Alas. Liu Fangzhou shook his head and called himself a stone. If the garrison team is willing to be better at the power wise, the two parties will cooperate and win together.

After leaving Caitian, Shen Shi'an took two babies around the base for a few more laps, and found that there were not even a few garrisons in the entire tobacco factory except the soldiers on duty at the door and in the administrative building. Think of the three military cards that you saw during the observation that day. They are all absent at this time. Did all the other garrisons go out to collect supplies?

Shen Shi'an thought a few times and took Shen Xun's hand to Liu Fangzhou and said, "Let's go back to the dormitory building first."

At more than seven o'clock that night, a survivor knocked on the door of Shen Shi'an and others' dormitory and invited them to participate in the "welcome party" held on the platform on the top floor of the dormitory building.

Said to be the orientation party, in fact, a group of survivors gathered together to understand each other.

When Shen Shi'an arrived at the four, the platform was already full of people, either by the railings to chat, or playing cards around the bonfire, almost a cigarette in the hands of everyone, lit up in the night countlessly. Red dot.

One of the red dots seemed to be slammed a few times, suddenly lit up and then extinguished. A middle-aged man threw the annihilated cigarette **** into a trash can and stood up to the four of them. "Hello, hello, Welcome to the base. My last name is Zhou Jianghai, but everyone else here calls me a doctor. "

The comer was about 50 years old, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, the shirt sleeves were neatly rolled up to the elbows, the figure was thin but still straight, because the beards were very clean and looked more energetic than other survivors. .

Shen Shi'an reached out and held "Yunfeiyang." The palm of his hand just came into contact with the other party. A warm current suddenly passed from the other's palm and poured into the right arm meridian. Shen Shi'an's heart tightened, waiting for the brain to give an order. Already operating instinctively, Dan Tian's spiritual powers converged to the arm of his right hand, blasting out the warm current with a thunderbolt, and his right hand quickly withdrew back. Shen Xun's teeth yelled from his throat, and Chen Nan noticed something was wrong and immediately surrounded Shen Shi'an in a defensive posture.

The man named Zhou Jianghai took a step back and saw his hands hurriedly. "Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand. I'm not malicious, I'm an evolutionary, and my ability to evolve is to heal others, so other people call me a doctor. Just now That is my ability, which is not only harmless to the body, but also good. "

Evolutionary

Shen Shi'an did not lower his alert at all. Each muscle was in a tight state of rotation. If the other side showed a little abnormality, the long sword behind him could scream at any time to take its first level. "For no reason, why use power over me"

"Sorry, I didn't mean it on purpose." Zhou Jianghai looked very embarrassed. "My ability seems to have evolved again recently, so it's a bit out of control. When I contact someone, I accidentally scurry out." Brother Yun, if in doubt, can ask other people, or a dozen new friends. "

"The doctor didn't lie," someone in the crowd immediately said. "Oh guy, don't be nervous, it feels normal to have a warm current. The ability of the doctor is like this. As long as this warm current is turned around in the body, it is not only refreshing. Energetic, and any wounds can be good in a few minutes. This warm current is precious. Usually, you can only enjoy it if you are sick or injured, or if you are particularly weak, you can earn it.

A new guy who was in the quarantine area yesterday also said, "I just felt it, it scared me, but it was really comfortable after the warmth was over, and I felt like I had all my energy recovered. Today I only ate a bag of egg yolk pie. There was no energy at all, but it's much better now. "

It sounds a little similar to the role of spiritual power in him. Shen Shi'an relaxed a little.

Zhou Jianghai apologized again. "I'm sorry, I'm too bold, I should explain it before shaking hands with you."

Liu Fangzhou's eyes were eager to try, seeing Shen Shi'an look relaxed and ease the other side to reach a reconciliation, and quickly came over and held Zhou Jianghai's hand "Hello, hello, my name is Liu Fangzhou, so are you a doctor before the last days?"

Zhou Jianghaidao "No, I used to be a high school teacher and teach history." After I finished holding it, I wanted to put it away, but I couldn't twitch it.

Liu Fangzhou was so enthusiastic that he didn't realize the other party's willingness to let go, and he held the other hand up. "What restrictions do you have on this ability? Can all diseases or wounds be treated? Can it be bitten by a zombie? "

"Ark," Shen Shian whispered, and then said to Zhou Jianghaidao, "Sorry, the child is not sensible."

"It's okay," Zhou Jianghai smiled with a temperament. "Young people, curiosity is normal. According to my current experience, minor illnesses and small pains can be cured. It's too serious to be impossible. As for being bitten by a zombie, it's very Sorry, my abilities can't do anything. "I pulled my hand back hard and greeted the four people" Come and come, don't just stand, let's sit down and talk. "

Someone handed a packet of cigarettes to Shen Shi'an. "Brother comes to a base, there is nothing else, this thing is the most. Don't say that it tastes pretty good."

A person next to him said, "This brand is so expensive, of course, it tastes good. I didn't dare to smoke hard before, one was costly, and the other was hurt. Now it's fine. I live in a tobacco factory and smoke as much as I want. Lung cancer, liver cancer, tracheal cancer or something, and our doctor is here. "

"Do n’t, I ca n’t cure cancer, you still have to pump less." Zhou Jianghai responded with a smile, seeing Shen Shian refused to pump, and looked at Shen Xun in his arms. "This child is so beautiful, in our base. I have n’t seen the child come in for a while, oh, look at my mind, you ca n’t let the child smoke second-hand smoke, or let ’s all kill the smoke first. ”

"No," Shen Shi'an said. "You are free, I'll take him to the side of the railing to blow hair." After talking, holding the dog spirit and walking to the corner of the platform, Chen Nan followed.

The sunset is late in summer and it doesn't take long for the sky to just get dark. In the night, most of the base was shrouded in hazy darkness. Only the searchlights on the wall and the lights in the administrative building remained bright and dazzling.

Someone asked "Why can't the dormitory building be powered on if there is a generator to generate electricity?"

"Why do you say that?" Someone spit out a cigarette. "The administration building is a soldier's house. Of course, the good thing is to hold the master first. Of course, we ordinary people are not entitled to enjoy it."

There was a sigh of laughter not far away. "That's not the case, Master Bing is hot and spicy. Let's be a cow and a horse to serve others. We can barely die of starvation every day."

"Ahem." Zhou Jianghai, who was sitting in the middle of the crowd, cleared his throat. "Tonight is a welcome party. The new friends who have just arrived are the protagonists. Don't go far. There are a total of twenty new people. It ’s not long since everyone first entered the base. I'm afraid there are many questions. If you have any questions, don't feel embarrassed. "

Since he said that, someone asked a question very soon, and it was the black and thin man named Ma Zhongyi who had the power. "Why do you expose your identity as an evolutionary?" Ma Zhongyi still looks like a guard, holding his backpack tightly and asking Zhou Jianghai, "I heard that this base seems to do something to the evolutionary. Do you understand? "

Zhou Jianghai seemed to understand, but didn't seem to understand at all. He pushed the glasses and laughed, "Evolutionary ability is something that is exposed early, and also exposed late. It is definitely impossible to hide. Everyone has lived since the last days. It ’s very difficult. Like most people in our base ca n’t eat enough food, sometimes I ’m hungry and ca n’t walk stably. Since my ability can help everyone, what is the meaning of hiding it? What are the consequences, I can accept it frankly. "

Ma Zhongyi was silent, but the other survivors in the base had something to say "Our days in the base were not very sad, eating, living, sleeping, and the walls blocking the zombies, but the soldiers paid more for their work. Less and less, everyone should remember, at least there were two bags of bread before cleaning, but now I can only get a bag of biscuits. Is it a small package, it ’s a fart. If it ’s not a doctor I'm afraid someone has starved to death. "

These words seemed to open a gate invisibly, and the platform was quickly filled with the dissatisfaction and complaints of the survivors.

"Sweeping the toilet and dumping garbage, farming, fertilizing, fertilizing, and watering, what we do is not the result of the dirty work. They pulled the supplies back in the entire vehicle and the entire vehicle, just like the thief, but they let us eat. Can't bear to have a full meal "

"This group of soldiers has such privileges and privileges before the end of the last days. After the end of the last days, we still use us as slaves before we call them. On what grounds are they lying."

"I think it's great to have a gun in my hand. One by one is arrogant. I can't wait to grow my eyes to the sky, as long as I live comfortably. When did we treat us as humans? Alas, I thought I was a cheap labor before the last days. Now But it's a cheap slave. "

"Hehe, there are guns. There are many precedents in history. There is resistance when there is oppression. Don't forget that Feng Shui will take turns, so sooner or later."

The terrain on the platform was wide, and it was far away from the administrative building, and everyone's voices quickly dissipated in the wind. It was about no scruples, there were too many dissatisfactions accumulated in the heart, the argument was getting louder, and the subtexts in it became more and more explicit.

After listening for a long time, Chen Nan couldn't help but raised the volume and said, "I want to eat well, then why not go out and collect materials?"

"What" was quiet in the crowd

Chen Nan stepped forward. "I feel that working in the base is less rewarding and not enough to eat, so why not go out with the search team to collect supplies? When I came in today, I heard the soldiers say, as long as they participate in the search operation, regardless of the search I ’ve got as much food as I can so I ’m full, right? ”

The crowd was quiet again for a moment, and then someone laughed. "Sure enough, it's a young man who just entered the base. You think collecting materials is so easy to get out, but not necessarily to come back."

"As you say," Chen Nan couldn't understand. "Do n’t the soldiers go out to collect materials and risk their lives, they risked the greatest, so they enjoy the best treatment, is there any problem?"

The answer to him this time was Zhou Jianghai. Unlike the surrender of other survivors, Zhou Jianghai's voice was very gentle, and he faintly carried some helpless "lady, it is not that we are not willing to go out and collect materials. There is an important prerequisite for collecting materials That is, they must be able to kill zombies, right? The garrison at the base are all professionally trained, with guns and bombs, and equipped with weapons and weapons. The killing of zombies may not be difficult for them. But you then Look at us survivors. What kind of old, weak, sick and disabled women and children are we all equipped with? Are we going to fight barefoot with the zombies? We have actually discussed with the soldiers. If we can also equip the survivors with some weapons, we do n’t need much. At least it makes us feel a little bit jealous and increase our confidence, knowing that we are not going to die, so many, many people are willing to join the search operation, but the garrison refused. I guess they should not be assured of us, but since they have reached the end of the world, can it Shouldn't we unite as one and treat the zombies as our only enemy? "

Chen Nan subconsciously wanted to refute, but for a while, he didn't know where to start. Zhou Jianghai's words sounded reasonable and could not find any flaws.

Some survivors added intentionally. "Furthermore, if we participate in the search operation, the danger we face is not only from zombies, but the dark knife that comes from behind is the most indefensible."

Shen Shi'an and Liu Fangzhou and others looked at each other and thought of the note last night.

Obviously, it is not just them who made such associations. Soon, newcomers went to the senior survivors and whispered inquiries about the "evolvers" and "experiments."

However, the survivors of this issue seem to be very secretive and vague, and Tai Chi is playing very well, and they just refuse to speak up.

The more so, the more sure the newcomers are that something is absolutely wrong, and the concerns about the contents of the note quietly increase a little.

Shen Shi'an let go of the five senses and listened for a while, then said to Chen Nan, "Let's go back."

Say goodbye to everyone, walk into the corridor on the fourth floor, Shen Shi'an looked at the brightly lit administrative building in front and asked Liu Fangzhou, "How many people are there in the administrative building?"

"Two hundred and forty-eight." Liu Fangzhou reacted as soon as he finished speaking. "There are only more than two hundred troops stationed in the base." He sensed a total of more than three hundred and fifty, and thought that at least there were one thousand Yet.

Shen Shian nodded. Even if guard patrols are added, it is estimated to be less than three hundred.

Less than 300 people supported the material collection of more than 3,000 people throughout the base, and no wonder they were filled with slogans calling for survivors to participate in the search operation, and the work salary was getting lower and lower. The number of survivors was so low. The more it is distributed to everyone, the lower the compensation. "How many powers are in the garrison"

"No."

Shen Shi'an stepped back and looked back at Liu Fangzhou "what"

"There isn't one, it's all white light from ordinary survivors." Liu Fangzhou scratched his head and felt a little strange. Of the more than 3,000 survivors, there are more than 150 abilities. According to this ratio, there should be at least one or two survivors in the garrison. Frowning for a moment, suddenly his eyes lighted up, and he quietly gathered up to suppress the voice. "Brother Shen, would you say that because the soldiers in the team don't have power, those soldiers just use the power to do experiments."

Shen Shi'an did not answer. When a few people entered the dormitory and closed the door, they took out two candles from their backpacks and lit them, and whispered in the candlelight, "Tomorrow I will join Chen Nan in a search operation to inquire about the situation."

One of the main purposes of their entry into the base was to use the communications equipment of the garrison. They had to deal with each other before they could open the mouth. Just look at the zombie mutation ratio in the urban area. As for the note, he still had doubts in his mind, but he was still not sure, but he must be careful.

Liu Fangzhou said, "What about me?"

"You stay in the base and keep your luggage. By the way, find out more about the news." Liu Fangzhou is young and handsome, looks harmless to people and animals, and most people don't take precautions against him. After thinking about it, he added, "Remember, don't just stare at others, and don't ask questions casually."

Shen Xun holding Shen Shi'an's hand back and forth, "Ann, what about me?"

Shen Shian squatted down and looked at him. "I have a task for you. I need your help to look after the children."

It took a long time for Liu Fangzhou to react to "诶"
