Salted Fish Transmigrated Into An Apocalyptic Book - Chapter 45
Lu Qiming’s complex expression and his vigilance were mixed with hatred, which made Jiang Miaomiao unable to understand.
She thought the other party was angry because of her return, and explained:
“These people are here to rescue us. His surname is Gu and his name is Gu Changzhou. It was our last time…”
Before he finished speaking, Gu Changzhou suddenly said:
“I remember, you are…A63?”
Lu Qiming didn’t speak, and secretly squeezed the gun tightly, as if he was ready to fight at any time.
Gu Changzhou looked at him with an unbelievable expression.
“Didn’t you die, but you survived? Ten years have passed, why haven’t you changed at all?”
Now Huan Jiang Miaomiao was surprised.
“You know each other before? What more than ten years?”
In the original text, she really never saw Lu Qiming!
Gu Changzhou glanced at her, and countless guesses flashed in his mind, only one thing was certain-this girl was indeed ordinary, from the inside out.
Seeing that he stopped speaking, Jiang Miaomiao subconsciously looked at Lu Qiming and asked in a low voice:
“Do you know him?”
Lu Qiming did not answer either, staring at Gu Changzhou, not knowing what he was thinking.
The atmosphere in the house was depressed and serious, which made Jiang Miaomiao suspect that he had done something wrong.
The subordinates were as confused as her and looked at each other.
After more than ten seconds, Gu Changzhou changed the subject.
“You are hurt?”
Lu Qiming was expressionless, “Even if I break my arm or leg, I have the ability to kill you.”
These words were like a fuse, making Gu Changzhou’s subordinates more alert, staring at him closely and guarding against all his actions.
Gu Changzhou himself laughed lightly, and even put away his weapons in a harmless posture.
“Don’t be so serious. I can’t tell you a sentence or a sentence. Let’s put it aside. I am here to save you and this little girl.”
Speaking of those three words, his eyes turned to Jiang Miaomiao.
The latter was looking at Lu Qiming, turned his head when he felt his gaze, and wanted to say something, but he had already looked away.
Lu Qiming sneered, “Are you willing to save me?”
“Why not? In this world, survivors must unite and help each other to survive. Besides, I am now a professional soldier. It is my duty to protect the country and citizens.”
He still doesn’t believe it, his expression is full of alienation.
Gu Changzhou ignored him, and ordered his subordinates, “Test him for infection.”
The subordinate put away his weapon, took out a sealed test paper from his backpack, and walked towards Lu Qiming.
The latter reprimanded in a deep voice: “Stop!”
He felt the strong hostility on the opponent, so he had to stop where he was and ask Gu Changzhou for help with his eyes.
Gu Changzhou looked at Jiang Miaomiao.
Jiang Miao thought for a while, walked to Lu Qiming and hugged him, persuaded with a volume that only two of them could hear:
“Let them test it. If they are not infected, we can go to the base.”
Although the base is not so good, it is not as carefree as the two before, but it is better than waiting to die here.
Lu Qiming was very upset.
“You don’t care about me at all, you never listen to me.”
Jiang Miaomiao’s fingers tightened.
“If I change it and I’m lying here dying, will you leave? You won’t, so neither will I. What was your mood when I was about to die, what was my mood now.”
Lu Qiming was startled, and a few seconds later said discouragedly:
“OK, test it.”
He put aside his face and stopped looking at the soldier.
The soldier breathed a sigh of relief, and took blood from him and dripped it on the test paper as instructed to take care of Changzhou.
After a few minutes, the results came out.
The soldier shook his head at Gu Changzhou.
“A.”
There are three levels of ABC in the test paper test results.
C, no infection.
B, there is a possibility of infection.
A, the infection has been confirmed.
If they are in the base, they can use equipment to do further checks, such as the degree of infection.
But now the environment is special, and this preliminary result is enough for them to make a decision.
Infected persons are never allowed to enter the base.
After the soldiers returned to Gu Changzhou, everyone was already preparing to leave.
Gu Changzhou was silent for a while and suddenly ordered.
“Take them along.”
Jiang Miaomiao knew the level of the test when he read the novel, so when he heard the results, he was already discouraged and planned to stay with Lu Qiming.
The other party gave such an order, not only was the subordinates surprised, even she couldn’t believe it.
The subordinate said: “Captain, he has been infected! He is an infected person!”
“I know.”
“Then you also ordered to take him back? How much energy and effort did everyone spend to keep the base absolutely safe? He went in and spread the virus, didn’t he abandon all his efforts?”
Gu Changzhou asked: “Are you the captain or am I the captain?”
“……you are.”
“In this case, you only need to follow the order and take them back.”
The subordinates exchanged a few glances, none of them moved, obviously they couldn’t understand the command at all.
He frowned and was about to reprimand, when Lu Qiming spoke.
“I won’t go to the base with you.”
The subordinate seized the opportunity and said quickly: “Look, captain, he doesn’t want to go, so what are we going to take risks? Let’s go!”
Gu Changzhou narrowed his eyes to look at Lu Qiming.
“you sure?”
I have already seen myself. Will he die without doing anything?
This is not his style
Lu Qiming sneered.
“I won’t go to the base. There are too many people and it’s not quiet. I need you to provide me with a safer and more hidden place.”
Gu Changzhou mocked: “Your virus seems to be in your head, it’s so whimsical.”
Jiang Miaomiao was puzzled: “Why are you saying this? It’s already not easy for him to save us, will it be too much?”
“Don’t worry, it’s not too much, he can’t bear to refuse.”
Lu Qiming looked confident, holding her hand back with his big hand, quietly waiting for the answer from the other party.
The two seemed to be playing a silent game, holding trump cards that were extremely attractive to each other.
A few minutes later, Gu Changzhou gave in.
“Row.”
Lu Qiming coldly said thank you, Chong Jiang Miao Miao made a look and motioned to help him out of bed.
Jiang Miaomiao helped him to the ground, looking for bags to hold his things, clothes and shoes, and the most precious cigarette lighter.
Under the gaze of several pairs of eyes, he blatantly took out the gun and pinned it behind his waist.
The eyes of the subordinates were all staring, only Gu Changzhou was indifferent, as if he didn’t care.
One of the subordinates couldn’t help but pulled him aside.
“Captain, let’s just take him away. How can we let him carry weapons? If there is any conflict on the road, don’t you ask for trouble?”
Gu Changzhou said lightly: “Don’t worry, even if he wants to shoot, he will only target me and won’t move you.”
“why?”
He gave a wry smile and said nothing.
At this time, Jiang Miaomiao had gathered everything together and helped Lu Qiming to walk outside.
Because the two were close, she clearly smelled the more and more foul smell on him.
To be honest, she was not surprised when she heard the test results.
When Lu Qiming was seriously ill and was about to drive her away, she had a vague hunch that he should be infected.
I just didn’t have the courage to face this problem, so no one mentioned it at all.
Why was bitten and not infected before, but infected this time?
Is it because the virus in the zombie’s body is activated by the drug?
Her poor amount of knowledge could not be explained at all, but she was very thankful that they were still not separated.
Where is Gu Changzhou taking them? Do they never have a chance to come back?
Before boarding the plane, she looked back at the building where she had lived for several months, and the familiar city behind the building.
Here obviously brought her many hard and thrilling memories, and she still felt reluctant at this moment.
What does the future look like? What will happen again?
She could not imagine.
I only know that the temperature of the people around me is still there, and hope is still there.
The plane closed the door, rose into the sky, circled half a circle in the air, and flew towards the distant destination.
According to Gu Changzhou, they have to fly for seven hours.
It’s almost noon, which means you have to wait for the evening to get off the plane.
Jiang Miaomiao took a fighter jet for the first time, and he was a little fresh and looked at it curiously.
The cabin is completely different from the passenger plane, more like a small arms warehouse.
There is a row of fixed seats on the walls on both sides, and there are several large boxes in the middle, respectively containing weapons, ammunition, and emergency medicine, making this small space very cramped.
In the front is the cockpit, through the glass you can see the dense cluster of instrument panels, dazzling.
There are no windows on the fuselage, and the lighting depends on the embedded cold light tube.
The person sitting inside cannot see the outside scenery, and can only realize that they are high in the sky from the occasional small bumps.
The pilot was Gu Changzhou’s three subordinates. He himself and the other subordinates were sitting on chairs in the cabin like Jiang Miaomiao.
He didn’t talk, didn’t sleep, and watched them sharply like an eagle.
“Ahem.”
Lu Qiming coughed twice, Jiang Miaomiao quickly patted him on the back, took out a thermos bottle from his bag and handed it to him.
He sipped his mouth lightly, his face was so pale that he didn’t look like a living person, his body was covered with a layer of cold sweat, and his pulse slowed down.
Gu Changzhou’s eyes swept over them, and suddenly asked:
“Do you know how old he is?”
Jiang Miaomiao pointed at herself, “Ask me?”
“Ok.”
“Know, what do you do?”
“Nothing.” He smiled, because his appearance is very mature, which always makes people think that he has ulterior motives, “Are you a couple?”
When she was about to speak, Lu Qiming interjected coldly.
“none of your business?”
“It’s nothing to do with me, it’s just that I’m idle and I’m idle. It’s better to chat, don’t be so indifferent.”
As Gu Changzhou said, he glanced at Jiang Miaomiao again, “I couldn’t think of it at the beginning, someone like you would actually find such a gentle girl as a girlfriend.”
Lu Qiming snorted, “I didn’t expect you to look so wretched when you grow old.”
Gu Changzhou: “…you don’t need to lie to hit me, my appearance is obviously not a defect.”
“Yes, blind confidence is.”
“…”
He was silent for a few seconds and did not continue to argue.
“Whatever you want, I’m past the age of being troubled by such small things.”
“What can bother you now?”
Gu Changzhou felt that he asked strangely, but still answered him.
“Rejuvenate the country, eliminate zombies and the like.”
“Give up, you are so old that you can’t see that day.”
“…The zombie should bite your tongue.”
Jiang Miaomiao was overwhelmed watching the excitement next to her. However, thinking about their conversation carefully, she suddenly discovered a secret that shocked her.
They met very early.
Gu Changzhou is getting old, but Lu Qiming is not.
Lu Qiming should be about the same age as Gu Changzhou?
Are they about the same size? ? ?
She looked at him in astonishment, with an unbelievable expression.
Lu Qiming turned his head, leaned against her shoulder, and used the coldest tone to express the softest tenderness.
“I am cold.”
Jiang Miaomiao loosened the seat belt a bit and hugged him in an awkward position.
Lu Qiming leaned in her arms and went to sleep with his eyes closed.
Gu Changzhou watched for a while and praised:
“You are very courageous.”
Not everyone dared to hold someone who might become a zombie at any time.
Jiang Miaomiao smiled politely, “Your medal is very beautiful.”
Gu Changzhou looked down at the medal, and did not move for a while, as if it had frozen.
It wasn’t until Jiang Miaomiao was a little sleepy that he let out a sigh of relief, smiled self-deprecatingly, and leaned back in his chair to look at the top of the cabin.
Jiang Rourou had no chairs to sit on, and was kept in a cage in a corner.
It seemed to be a little airsick, lying on his stomach in a daze, occasionally spitting out two sour mouths.
Jiang Miaomiao wanted to ask the soldiers if they had medicine for motion sickness, but they laughed at him.
Had to turn a piece of mint out of the bag, hide it in the ham and feed it to it.
After feeding, she returned to her seat and continued to hold Lu Qiming.
The latter is always sweating, so she wipes him with a tissue, and wipes a little if he takes any risk.
Although I knew it wasn’t useful, I wanted to try my best to make him more comfortable.
After flying for more than three hours, the soldiers began to eat.
They eat military field food, delicious and nutritious, and especially convenient. Adding a little water bubble is a hot meal.
The cabin was just that big, Jiang Miaomiao could not help swallowing when he smelled the smell of beef floating over.
Gu Changzhou asked: “Are you hungry? Come one?”
She shook her head.
I brought my own biscuits, enough to satisfy my hunger.
Lu Qiming obviously didn’t deal with him, she couldn’t betray him for stuttering.
Especially since he is so uncomfortable that he can’t eat anything, and she can’t enjoy it alone.
Who knows that someone who should have been sleeping in his arms came out.
“Twice.”
Gu Changzhou was surprised, “Do you have an appetite?”
“A person has to eat while he is alive. If you don’t eat nothing, you don’t eat.”
He nodded and asked his subordinates to give them two meals.
Lu Qiming got up from Jiang Miaomiao’s arms and sat up straight.
The simple movements seemed to drain his strength and his shirt was soaked.
Jiang Miaomiao has never eaten field food, but he has seen other people’s early adopters’ videos before and vaguely remembers the steps.
Open the waterproof sealed bag, there are a total of 13 small bags inside, of different sizes.
The largest package is the staple food. See the note is beef fried rice. Just pour water into the outer isolation layer, and it will become as fresh as it is just out of the pot in a few minutes.
The remaining packets contained canned pork, fruit salad, dried vegetables, compressed biscuits, appetizing hawthorn slices, mustard pickles, chocolate bars to increase energy, and orange juice-flavored electrolyte beverage powder.
The abundance of ingredients made her salivate after working hard for half a year.
Jiang Miaomiao processed all the food, divided his own half into Jiang Rourou, then returned to the chair, scooped up a spoonful of rice with a spoon, and prepared to feed Lu Qiming.
Lu Qiming originally wanted to refuse, but found that Gu Changzhou was looking at him, so he opened his mouth and swallowed the spoonful of rice.
Jiang Miaomiao was very happy, “Awesome! Eat more.”
He ate it one bite after another, looking as though he was dying of illness, but he showed a little rustling taste.
What is it?
Does he have a girlfriend to feed him? naive.
Gu Changzhou rolled his eyes, speeded up the meal, and continued to rest.
Lu Qiming ate all of his share, and couldn’t hold one more bite. Lean back in the chair and cover his stomach, trying not to let those things out.
Seeing that he was not feeling well, Jiang Miaomiao took out his treasure.
“Smoker?”
Gu Changzhou opened his eyes, “No smoking is allowed in the cabin.”
She had no choice but to put it away, put it away and said regretfully: “Be forbearance, and then smoke again after getting off the plane.”
After Jiang Miaomiao finished his meal, he opened his arms to him.
“Come, I hold you.”
Lu Qiming leaned in comfortably, even though he was tortured by the living smell of her, he felt comfortable.
He couldn’t help wondering if he had taken the wrong medicine in the morning.
Such a good person, why would he be willing to let her go?
Fortunately, no success.
The plane continued to fly smoothly, and time passed silently.
Finally, the driver’s voice came from the horn.
“Captain, we will be at the base in ten minutes.”
base.
Jiang Miaomiao remembers the author’s description of it in the original text.
It was a huge fortress transformed from a military base. The main body was steel and concrete, and the outer cover was a radiation-proof layer that could evade radar detection.
The base is located underground, with a total height of more than 900 meters, equivalent to three hundred floors on the ground.
The area is comparable to a small city, which is equipped with a complete set of power generation systems, water supply systems, and garbage disposal systems.
People live in the central city and work in other areas.
Clothing production, food manufacturing, and weapon manufacturing have become the most important industries in the base. Of course, there are also animal husbandry and breeding that humans will never do without.
The once hot financial, real estate, and digital technology have disappeared. Bioengineering, agriculture, animal husbandry, and medical industries are thriving. They are the golden rice bowls in the eyes of the base people.
Due to the recession of the entertainment industry, underground casinos began to rise. For this reason, the government sent a group of police officers to crack down on gambling crimes.
This is a world that has been hit hard.
It is also a world full of hope.
Jiang Miaomiao was fascinated by it, and at the same time, he knew very well-the people who lived in it had to work hard to survive, and she couldn’t stand a lazy person.
Now, do I have a chance to see it with my own eyes?
Gu Changzhou noticed the expectation in her eyes, unfastened his seat belt and stood up.
“Want to see? Come with me.”
Lu Qiming opened his eyes, Jiang Miaomiao cast a questioning look at him.
He retracted his hand and said coldly: “I’ll be back after reading.”
“No problem, I love you!”
She rushed over and kissed, and happily followed Gu Changzhou to the cockpit.
The latter seems to be smiling but not smiling.
“You have a good relationship.”
After seeing each other for so long, she must have seen it even if she denied the other party.
Jiang Miaomiao was too lazy to pretend, and only hoped that the two would not compete so much, so he said:
“Others are really nice.”
“I don’t think so.” Gu Changzhou said meaningfully: “If I were my daughter, I would never allow her to associate with that kind of person.”
Jiang Miaomiao did not answer, because his attention was completely attracted by the scenery outside the window.
She didn’t feel much when she was sitting in the back. Now that she saw the scenery outside, she really realized that she was in such a remote place.
Not far away is a group of snow-capped mountains, with white peaks standing high and endless.
Below them is a wasteland, the gray-black grassland is covered with white snow, and occasionally goshawks fly by.
and many more!
what is that?
A large dense cluster of things appeared in the field of vision. It should be a living thing. The edges were constantly surging, like maggots gathered together, looking very disgusting.
Those things are surrounded by snow-capped mountains, and the number is unimaginable.
They seemed to want to go in, but the overwhelming snow and cold temperature blocked their progress.
Even if a few of them leaned in by luck, a plane would immediately come and wipe them out.
The distance was too far. Jiang Miaomiao couldn’t see what they looked like. He vaguely guessed what they were, but couldn’t believe it, and asked Gu Changzhou specifically.
The latter is probably used to it long ago, and his tone is calm.
“It’s a zombie.”
“So many zombies?”
“They are like a swarm of bees. The survivors will be chased wherever they escape. There will be zombies from other directions in the middle of the chase. We sacrificed a lot. This is the sixth base established. The first five are either unable to satisfy everyone. Survival needs, or they are damaged by the loopholes they find. If you can’t persist here, there will be nowhere to go.”
Jiang Miaomiao calculated the timeline in his heart.
Less than a year after the outbreak of the end of the world, the base is still in the just-established stage. Many facilities are imperfect and there are many problems.
Entrusted by the government, the heroine and heroine are flying around the world in airplanes, trying to rescue the trapped scientific research experts and other important figures.
The current state of the base was at least six or seven years behind the last scale she remembered.
She knows the ending, so she is not worried.
But Gu Changzhou couldn’t see the future, so he still had no confidence in being in a high position.
Her eyes burned, “I believe it will get better.”
He didn’t believe it, and squinted at her.
“If you were so confident, would you rather hide in the city than retreat with the big troops?”
Jiang Miaomiao said: “It’s my own problem that I didn’t leave. It has nothing to do with whether I have confidence. When things have developed to this point, we still have a country, a government, and no one has been given up. I think this is a good sign.”
Gu Changzhou smiled, “I hope as you said.”
She glanced out the window again.
The scenery is beautiful, and the number of zombies is shocking.
But she was not interested, just wanted to guard Lu Qiming.
Jiang Miaomiao returned to the cabin behind him and found that Lu Qiming stretched his arms and wanted to take a water glass from the bag at his feet.
She rushed to help him get it, opened the lid and fed him a drink.
The plane flew over the snow-capped mountains and landed in a certain col.
The cabin door opened and the cold wind blew in. Jiang Miaomiao, who was wearing only thin and long sleeves, was blown stupidly, and her mouth could not be opened.
Gu Changzhou asked them to give them two sets of snow protection suits, and she quickly helped Lu Qiming wear them, and then put on her own.
Jiang Rourou had no clothes to wear, so she simply wrapped it in her coat, tightened the drawstring at the bottom, and held it against her clothes.
From a distance, the belly is as big as a pregnant woman with triplets.
The soldiers moved fast and were already out of the cabin.
With the dog in her arms, she helped Lu Qiming in her arms, carrying luggage on her shoulders, dragging her family and walking out in a difficult and funny way.
There is a building outside the plane, most of which is hidden inside the mountain, with only a small opening exposed and covered with snow.
The subordinate cleared a way, and Gu Changzhou walked outside the door, and said something to nowhere, and the heavy metal door opened loudly.
Everyone came to the house, the door was closed, and the wind and snow were isolated.
There is heating in the house, and the ventilation system on the wall blows them gently.
Jiang Miaomiao slowed down for a while, undressed her mouth and breathed, and asked Lu Qiming with concern.
“Are you uncomfortable?”
Lu Qiming shook his head and looked around.
It’s like a private residence. You enter the living room. There are two doors behind the sofa, probably the bedroom and the kitchen.
The area is not large, at most more than 100 square meters, and the decoration is very simple, only some essential furniture, the most technological thing is probably the wall-mounted TV on the wall.
But the walls are very thick, strong and warm. In the last days, it is obviously a good place that money cannot buy.
Gu Changzhou introduced: “This is my private refuge, because work is too busy, and there is still no time to live in. For the sake of our old acquaintances, you can live here temporarily.
There is a warehouse in the kitchen, the food stored is enough for you to eat for a month, and the water and electricity are complete. However, for safety reasons, my people will not stay, eat and drink Lazarus will solve it by himself. The gate will be locked, and if you become a zombie, I will kill you immediately. ”
Lu Qiming glanced at him and nodded.
“Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” Gu Changzhou turned to Jiang Miaomiao, “How about you go back to the base with me? If he mutates, he won’t stop biting you because you are beautiful.”
Jiang Miaomiao refused without hesitation.
“Thank you, but I want to stay.”
“Aren’t you afraid?”
“Scared.” She hooked Lu Qiming’s arm and pressed it closely, “But he would be scared if he was alone.”
Staying alone in this cave-like house, his body rotted and stinky day by day, waiting for death to come.
She couldn’t bear that feeling even thinking about it.
Gu Changzhou looked at Lu Qiming seriously.
“You are really lucky.”
“Of course, otherwise how could I stand in front of you alive.”
Gu Changzhou shrugged and said to the two of them: “Since there is nothing else, I will go back to the base for business. If you have other needs, you can use the video communicator on the wall, and my assistant will help deliver things. Goodbye, hope You can still say hello next time you meet.”
He left with his subordinates, and the door opened and closed.
The room is warm and quiet, and there are two worlds outside.
It’s safe.
Jiang Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief, put down everything and took off the heavy snowsuit, sat on the sofa, ready to rest.
Seeing that Lu Qiming was still standing, he hurriedly told him to sit too.
His joints seemed very stiff when he sat down, and he staggered.
Jiang Miaomiao supported him and suddenly smiled and said:
“You look like an old man now.”
I can’t eat, I can’t walk, and I’m sick all day long.
Lu Qiming laughed at himself: “It would be nice to be an old man. He has no teeth and can’t bite into a zombie.”
She blinked, “Do you really want to eat me?”
“What do you eat? You are so skinny and useless.”
He leaned on the sofa and lifted his chin, looking at Jiang Rourou, “If you want to eat, eat it, you can be full of meat.”
Jiang Rourou was still immersed in the cold and never recovered, standing stupidly, completely unaware that he had been missed by others.
Jiang Miaomiao looked at him for a while, couldn’t help but arched into his arms and rubbed against his chest.
“I’m so happy, we are still together.”
Who would be happy for someone around him who was about to become a zombie?
She is probably the only fool in the world.
Lu Qiming was sad and happy. He wanted to touch her hair. He raised his hand and saw that his palm was starting to turn black, and he retracted silently.
Jiang Miaomiao looked up.
“But you have to tell me the truth, what is the relationship between you and Gu Changzhou? You know each other before, right? Tell me!”
Lu Qiming lowered his eyes and fell into a distant memory.
“I did meet him, but that was many years ago…”
