Chapter 51: CH 50

“Unless what?” Xin Ting and Peng Mao both asked nervously.

“Unless their behavior has caught the attention of high government officials and the authorities have made corresponding countermeasures. They may even have blocked their intelligence sources so that they are slightly behind in their news.” Lian Ru Ning deduced.

Shi Gong Dui was confused, “Hey, I have always had a question. You seem to know quite a lot about the origin of those people, who are they?”

Hao Jian looked at him with a smile, “You’ve been eavesdropping on the military’s communications for so long yet you haven’t heard of them?”

Shi Gong Dui said, “I can’t pick up their channels all the time. You must know that there are many channels they use to communicate with, is it strange that I don’t know their identity?”

Hao Jian smiled and Lian Ru Ning didn’t speak either. She took out the binoculars and observed the situation on their left and right.

It was Xin Ting who kindly explained to Shi Gong Dui, “I’m not quite sure what kind of people you’re talking about, but we met a group of cultists in Jiang City who calls themselves ‘Wugui’ and they have used the same method to attack the military.”

Shi Gong Dui was startled and replied, “Holy shit. There really is a cult out there! But it’s not surprising. in times of peace, cults have been popping up all over the place, let alone in this chaotic world now. Hey, it seems you guys know a lot too!”

Seeing that Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning had no intention of speaking up, Xin Ting picked out some unimportant things to say. However, she didn’t know much. Everything she knew about’Wugui’ came from Lian Ru Ning and she didn’t know what role Lian Ru Ning and Hao Jian played in it.

“Then how is the refugee base in Jiang city now?”

Xin Ting shook her head, “There should be no problem. We came out early and didn’t receive any news from there.”

Shi Gong Dui sighed, “So don’t put your eggs in the same basket. Like our Xinghua city, although the place is large, the population is small so the number of public security teams is also small. There is not enough manpower to disperse and organize a refugee base. They can only gather people in one place. In addition to the soldiers, those grassroots police and civil servants are also missing. I think most of them are in trouble.”

After gossiping for a while, they turned the topic back to business.

Xin Ting asked Hao Jian, “There is no interception on the airport road, so can we pass through the airport road?”

“The reason why they gave up the airport road means that the airport side is dangerous and they don’t feel the need to set up an interceptor at all.”

“Shall we pass through the outer perimeter?” Shi Gong Dui asked.

“There isn’t enough fuel to support us to pass through from the outer perimeter.” Hao Jian reminded.

Her words startled the crowd, “How far can we go?”

When they found this car at the time, the gasoline was transferred from another car and was not filled to the brim because of time constraints.

According to the car’s fuel consumption rate, it can only travel more than 200 kilometers at most without high-speed driving.

But when they were driving from Jiang City, the distance from Jiang CIty to Shi Gong Dui’s house, the car traveled no more than two hundred kilometers, but it was still more than a hundred kilometers away. The remaining amount of fuel they have won’t support them to reach Chengxiang if they detour.

So either they find a gas station to refuel, or they give up the detour and directly pass through the city and increase their chances of getting spotted.

Because no one could come up with a safe route, the atmosphere became dull.

Suddenly, Hao Jian asked Shi Gong Dui an irrelevant question, “Has there been a power outage in Xianghua City?”

“Huh?” Shi Gong Dui almost couldn’t react, “It was after shopping for two or three days. Fortunately, I prepared a generator, but it didn’t take long for it to be robbed by those people. Then the power supply was restored and I didn’t care about those generators.”

Hao Jian met Lian Ru Ning’s eyes through the rearview mirror, and the corners of her lips curved, “Little junior sister, find out where the power plants here.”

Xin Ting, Peng Mao, and Shi Gong Dui are a little unclear. They were just talking about which route is better to take, why suddenly wanting to check where the power plant is?

It’s not easy to find a place using the offline map. One needs to zoom in and zoom out to find, it’s time-consuming and laborious. If one stares at their phone for a long time, it could damage the eyes.

But generally, these power plants will be built in the suburbs, close to places where there are coal resources and water power, so Lian Ru Ning set a few directions to find.

Hao Jian didn’t rush her but galloped along the road provided by the system map.

Shi Gong Dui looked at the familiar scenery and road signs around them. His eyes instantly widened, “If I remember correctly when I flew back last time, isn’t this the road going to the airport? You want to go to the airport?!”

Hao Jian nodded, “Yes.”

“Holy shit, you guys are going to die. Don’t involve me, I’m not going, I’m not going with you guys!”

Hao Jian stopped the car, “Then get off!”

“. . . .” Shi Gong Dui didn’t expect Hao Jian to be so temperamental.

He pointed to the zombies in front of him, his body slid down, “I, I was just talking nonsense in a pain. Generous Lord, don’t take it seriously ah! It doesn’t seem to be safe outside, hurry up and drive. . . “

Before the zombies a few meters ahead rushed over, Hao Jian started the car again and accelerated, hitting the zombies and ran over them.

She deliberately aimed for the neck to run over and the system’s notification for killing zombies popped out of her mind at the same time.

“Cruel!” Shi Gong Dui slandered. Among these people, is the boss really Lian Ru Ning? If Hao Jian is already this cruel, how more cruel would Lian Ru Ning be?!

However, like Lian Ru Ning’s innocent and lovely appearance, perhaps she’s responsible for intellectual output?

Such a delicate appearance is the setting of the boss of a team. If he throws himself in her arms, it would feel a bit sensational when he thinks about it.

Shi Gong Dui only dared to secretly make up his mind. If Hao Jian found out that he was thinking about this, Hao Jian might really pry his head off.

Lian Ru Ning found information about the power plants in Xinghua City, “Xinghua City has two power plants, one is in Heshui Town – a hydropower station built using a reservoir. The other is in Luoxin Town, more than 30 kilometers away. Heshui Hydropower station is only sixteen kilometers from the airport and thirteen kilometers from the city.”

“Get ready, we’re going to Heshui Hydropower Station.”

“Why?” Shi Gong Dui asked that everyone else wanted to know.

With Lian Ru Ning’s quick thinking, she immediately followed Hao Jian’s line of thought, “If I remember correctly, there was a time when the power went out after the chaos caused by the appearance of zombies. Later, when the electricity was restored in Jiang City, the power supply was also based on the time period and the power used by the refugee base was also very restrained.

This means that some power plants have resumed power supply, but because of the lack of manpower, they can’t cover a large area and provide an uninterrupted power supply. The force that can quickly organize the operation of power plants in such a short period of time are most likely the government, or possibly even a military team dispatched to the power plants.”

Once she said that the crowd understood, “Xinghua City still has electricity so far, so the hydropower station or the power plant must still be operating. If we can find the military team station in the hydropower station, then we can figure out what is happening in Xinghua City and we can also use their power to find a way to leave Xinghua City!”

“Sister, you’re really smart!” Shi Gong Dui praised Lian Ru Ning, really worthy of being the brains of the group!

“But the incident in the airport, can the military team of the hydropower station know?” Peng Mao asked.

Hao Jian shook her head, “I’m not sure if there is an escort team at the hydropower station, but I don’t think those people can stretch their influence that far.”

The area of Xinghua City, not including the mountainous part, is about four or five hundred square kilometers. She doesn’t believe that evil forces, including ‘Wugui’, could infiltrate every corner.

They were able to destroy the airport refugee base by ‘spreading rumors and causing panic.’ Even if they dismantle the refugee base’s soldiers, they won’t be able to guide the townspeople.

And did the guards really disappear?

Hao Jian felt that this wasn’t the case. Just as An Minghui gave an order to retreat after they rescued Yu Jiyou and the others, the soldiers didn’t necessarily die when they guarded the airport.

The reason why Shi Gong Dui didn’t receive the signal from the military again was probably that they knew that someone was eavesdropping and used an encrypted band communication.

So if the hydropower station there really has soldiers, their failure to respond would be enough to show that the airport military team has retreated, and there was no need for them to go to the airport for support.

And those evil forces who use the dragon houses as their stronghold, they’re worried that the soldiers will fight back, so they chose such houses that are easy to defend but difficult to attack. They also chose the main arterial road at the edge of the basin to be ready to evacuate at any time?

If she hadn’t experienced the ‘conference center incident’ and learned about the diversity of means of communication between the military, she might have been ignorant of the enemy’s situation today.

“We can’t underestimate the power of the state, and we have to believe that there is a way for cars to reach the mountain.”

Hao Jian’s remarks really made people feel at ease. As for whether the people in the hydropower station is a friend or for, it will be clear when they go there.

Lian Ru Ning felt that Hao Jian’s purpose wasn’t that simple, but considering that now wasn’t the time to look any deeper, she didn’t ask.

The air after the rain should have been very fresh, but Hao Jian and the girls smelled the stench of rotting corpses against the wind.

The car drove against the sunset and the afterglow of summer. The spacious roads and the zombies wandering around created a scene of the apocalypse that seemed to be harmonious and calm, but actually a hidden crisis.

There are not many buildings around the airport. They’re basically farmland, but there are still some residential and commercial buildings along the airport road.

If the airport area is a city, then this has undoubtedly become a deserted city; wandering zombies, cars burned to the ground by fire, small stores with twisted and deformed roll-up doors and broken windows, etc. There is no sign of the living.

“The road conditions over there are okay, there are no vehicles in the way. It’s just that the surrounding area is not very good.” Lian Ru Ning said while looking through the binoculars and gave Hao Jian a warning.

Of course, Hao Jian wouldn’t risk passing through the airport road, there were still many small roads near the airport road. As long as those people didn’t set up roadblocks on the airport road, she wasn’t worried about not being able to reach the Heishu power plant.

In this area, they didn’t hear anyone talking through the other side of the intercom, so they judged that ‘Wugui’ didn’t place anyone in this area.

“They probably didn’t expect us to have a map and be able to listen to their conversations!” Peng Mao smiled.

“But this will also increase their suspicions.” Hao Jian’s slender index finger tapped the steering wheel, “If we can’t monitor their conversation, under normal circumstances, we can only try one road at a time, so there will always be times when they run into us. But we suddenly disappeared within their monitoring range. If you were them, what would you think?”

Of course, no one could’ve imagined that there was a living map in Hao Jian’s mind.

“I would wonder if these people are government officials. Only government people have the ability to avoid their reconnaissance.” Lian Ru Ning said.

“Then don’t fall into their hands, otherwise, they definitely won’t believe that we don’t know anything. They may even torture us to extract a confession!” Shi Gong Dui said.

“Don’t worry, we don’t know anything about wiretapping technology.” Hao Jian smiled slightly.

“. . .” Shi Gong Dui, who felt that he was the one who’ll most likely be targeted, cursed foully at the heavens.

Hao Jian turned the car to the side road, around the airport road, despite this, the zombies that appeared here were several times more than the previous section. And the day was about to enter the night, making these zombies seemed unusually excited and active.

It was Shi Gong Dui’s first time to face so many zombies. Before he hid at home, he learned about them through the internet or official videos.

Seeing so many zombies at such close range, it was as if the death god’s scythe was resting on his neck and he got goosebumps all over his body. He didn’t know what he was thinking that he held his laptop for a while before playing a song on the computer.

Hao Jian and the others heard the same singing from the airport’s radio from far away.

Shi Gong Dui breathed a sigh of relief, “Although the aviation system at the airport is too tight, I can’t even touch the door. But the airport’s radio is remote-controlled. In this state, it’s difficult to check whether the fault self-monitoring system is still working or not. I just wanted to try, I didn’t expect it to actually work!”

Seeing all the zombies in the distance running towards the airport, Peng Mao changed his attitude of hating him and said, “Good job, contractor man!”

“Don’t call me ‘contractor’!”

“What’s wrong with contractor man!”

As the threats surrounding them diminished, their journey towards the Heishu Hydropower Station became much smoother.

Not long after, they saw a dam standing like a high wall in the middle of the lush mountains. With the water jetting out from the gate and rushing downstream along the Xinghua river.

The hydropower station is here!
