Darkness is Coming

pain.

   The blow to the forehead and the prolonged coma made the entire brain aches.

  Yu Qian was grateful for this heart-wrenching pain. He felt pain, indicating that he was still alive.

   opened his eyes, a dark green. "Where is this?" Yu Qian raised his upper body with his arms and found himself lying on a strangely shaped canvas single bed.

   looked forward a little and saw a familiar face lying beside the bed.

   "Yang Xiaoqian?" Yu Qian looked at Yang Xiaoqian who was lying on the bed beside the bed and fell into a deep sleep, snoring slightly from time to time, his nose was blocked, and he was a little moved, "Is this because you are worried about me, so you have been staying by the side?"

   This is certainly not the case.

  Having been together for so long, Yang Xiaoqian's understanding of Qian naturally knows that the best way to convince Yu Qian on complex issues is not to act with reason, but to show affection.

   It can be seen from Yu Qian's previous performance that he desperately longs for warmth in his heart, hoping that someone can protect him and guard him. This is normal, and most people with miserable childhoods have this desire in their hearts, whether they admit it or not.

   Therefore, even if he knew that Yu Qian was not in danger at all, Yang Xiaoqian stayed behind and waited by the bed after leaving Fang Yu, and even lied on the bed and pretended to fall asleep to show his tiredness and win Yu Qian's favor.

  Yang Xiaoqian knew that it was shameful for him to take advantage of others' psychological weaknesses, but at a critical juncture, he must not go wrong, and he must be sure of everything. In order to avoid Yu Qian's stubborn temper, he had to play an emotional card first.

   "I'm so tired, I'm still standing beside me, it's really..." Yu Qian muttered to himself, cautiously refraining from doing other actions, for fear of waking Yang Xiaoqian.

   "Hmm, are you awake?" Yang Xiaoqian couldn't play anymore, stood up and asked, rubbing his sleepy eyes.

   "Well, where are we?"

   "Let's point to the front now, it's a long story, let me keep it short." Yang Xiaoqian explained the matter as soon as possible.

   Certainly, something was omitted. For example, the reason why Liu Yuanzhou knocked out Yu Qian when they met was because Liu Yuanzhou thought Yu Qian was an idiot. If he didn't shut up, he would affect his conversation with Yang Xiaoqian.

   Of course Yang Xiaoqian agrees with this, but he must not let Yu Qian guess it, otherwise everything will be closed, let alone cooperation, it will not be easy to keep Yu Qian from assassinating Liu Yuanzhou.

"To sum up." Yang Xiaoqian cleared his throat, and finally said, "The two sides exchange resources on the basis of sharing information. In addition to various weapons and materials, they will also lend us helicopters. As for the Awakened, you are the main one, no Too much interference."

   "They really won't interfere? Don't they understand the importance of the Awakened?" Yu Qian still couldn't understand Liu Yuanzhou's mentality of putting the overall situation first.

   "Currently there is only one mutant hunting team, under our full command. When there are more Awakened people in the future, they will be distributed as needed. These are his original words." Yang Xiaoqian replied.

   "What is the quid pro quo?"

   Yang Xiaoqian answered immediately without hesitation: "Twenty rune bracelets, and lead a team to clear the surrounding mutants."

   "Twenty?" Yu Qian showed the expression of stepping on shit. No one likes this kind of intricate and repetitive work. It must be tiring to make twenty rune bracelets.

"That's right, they will assign ten people to us, don't look down on ordinary people, these soldiers, policemen and soldiers killed from the corpse tide are not bad with weapons and combat effectiveness, ordinary zombies and weak chicken variants can be handed over to them. , saves us a lot of effort." Yang Xiaoqian turned on the mouth cannon mode, "These ten people will come back to Paradise Island with us later, they are our own people. Then ten bracelets are allocated to them, in fact, we only need to provide ten bracelets to Liu Yuanzhou, ten bracelets are exchanged for a pile of weapons and supplies and ten soldiers who have already worn bracelets. Does this mean that they are giving away for nothing, and we earn blood?"

"Are you sure?" Yu Qian glanced at Yang Xiaoqian suspiciously, nodded and said, "Okay, twenty is only twenty, but they have the materials. ?"

   In the past, Yu Qian might not agree. Because the materials, weapons and manpower are all Yang Xiaoqian needs, Yu Qian, who doesn't plan to run a large base, doesn't read this kind of writing.

   But now Yu Qian regards Yang Xiaoqian as his true self, and Yang Xiaoqian's interests are his interests.

   "We smashed so much in the jewelry store along the way, a big box of silver jewelry, don't ask them for this material." Yang Xiaoqian patted Yu Qian's shoulder, "Thank you for your hard work."

   "Apart from the bracelet, what are you talking about about the Qing Suppression variant?" Yu Qian shook his head and said it was okay.

  Yang Xiaoqian was about to analyze the pros and cons to convince Yu Qian after interrupting his explanation. Before he could speak again, Yu Qian nodded in agreement: "Okay."

   "You agreed so quickly?" Yang Xiaoqian's rhetoric that had been conceived for a long time was useless, and he felt like he was punching cotton.

Yu Qian nodded and said: "The longer these mutants exist, the stronger they will become. It is a good thing for everyone to be able to kill them as much as possible in a relatively safe situation. For us, the fewer mutants, the better the survival of other awakened ones. The more likely it is.”

   Yang Xiaoqian raised his hands and applauded loudly. I thought that people would influence each other, and Yu Qian could never say this before.

  Yu Qian rolled his eyes and asked, "When do you leave?"

   "Noon, there are still a few hours."

   "Then I will make the rune bracelet after I come back. It will take at least two days." Yu Qian said.

   "Okay." According to Yang Xiaoqian's meaning, it is best to equip each member with a rune bracelet to improve the team's survival rate, but Liu Yuanzhou has repeatedly emphasized that it is not too late to start as soon as possible.

   "Then you can rest for a while, I'll find something to eat and bring it back." Yang Xiaoqian got up and walked out of the tent, looking at the tent of the cooking class, bursts of vegetable fragrance floated from there.

   "I haven't eaten hot meals for several days." Yang Xiaoqian swallowed his saliva.

   In another tent, Geng Zhiping and Wang Hai were chatting hotly.

   "Brother, you might as well come forward and point your fingers." Geng Zhiping grinned, revealing the iconic yellow teeth of an old smoker, "Yang Xiaoqian, he can't understand you, it's boring to follow him."

  Wang Hai replied unsmilingly: "I didn't follow him, I just cooperated with each other to get what I needed. When I fulfill my promise, I will defect to the 258th Brigade and return to the army."

Geng Zhiping was in awe, gave a thumbs up and said, "Keep your promises, good man! But going to the 258 brigade is even more boring. The 258 brigade is strong, but they rely too much on those big iron boxes, and they will only treat you as a fool. It's a big shot. Talents like you have a stage to fully play in the front finger."

   "I'll think about it." Wang Hai was a little moved, and then said, "By the way, Geng team, can I trouble you to arrange a sniper for me?"

   "What?" Geng Zhiping raised his eyebrows, "Are you going to join the hunt for mutants?"

   "Of course!" Wang Hai's decisive response echoed in the tent.
