#1817 - Natural underground cave

Nuts have very sharp eyes and extremely keen intuition.

He noticed that the color behind the small snow slope was a little different.

So Nut immediately took out his telescope and looked towards the small snow slope, while whispering to the people around him: "There may be enemies over there, everyone get behind the pusher!"

Upon hearing this, Li Si, Jia Bao and others' faces changed drastically and they quickly ran towards the push cart.

Moreover, the two hats were moving, which clearly indicated that they were people.

Seeing this, Nut immediately whispered into the intercom: "Ant, how long will it take you to get up? There are strangers approaching, please speed up."

Since he was unsure of the number of enemies and they were in such an unfamiliar place, Nut's first reaction was to evacuate the place quickly.

The other commandos on the ground also saw the situation on the small snow slope and pointed their guns towards that direction.

Li Si even stepped out of the spiral propulsion vehicle, carrying a rocket launcher. If this rocket was fired, it would directly blow up the small snow slope.

"Captain, do you want to blow it up?" Li Si asked as he stood next to Nut.

Nut waved his hand, "Wait a minute, let's see the situation. Don't be so reckless. What if you explode and attract more people?"

"oh."

Just when Nut was thinking about how to respond, the two people behind the snow slope suddenly walked out and walked towards them in a graceful manner.

"Captain, there are indeed people here, and they are coming towards us! Do you want to kill them?" Jia Bao asked from the side.

After seeing this scene, Jianguo suddenly felt that this matter was not that simple.

"No, wait until they come over. I want to see what nonsense these monkeys can say." Nut said lightly.

That group of people must have seen me. They didn’t dare to come out just now, but now they came out on their own initiative.

Do you want to talk to yourself?

I came over here just to have a conversation, and there are only two possibilities for that conversation: threatening them to surrender or asking for help.

A few minutes later, the two men slid on the snow at a very fast speed and stopped dozens of meters away from them.

The older man stuck his ski pole into the ground and shouted to Jianguo and the others in English: "Hello, don't be impulsive. I'm here to bring you supplies."

"Oh? Where are the supplies? I don't see any supplies on you." Nut replied in fluent English.

Chen Zhipeng looked a little nervous, but he pretended to be calm and said:

"I came from a cave in the northern valley. There is a leader there named Nado. He has a lot of supplies. If you go over and capture him, all the supplies in his hands will be yours!"

"Oh, what is your relationship with them?" asked Nut.

Chen Zhipeng said with an angry tone:

"He killed our people and occupied our base. Under his tyranny, we had no choice but to surrender."

"What supplies are there?" Nut continued to ask.

He actually didn't believe what the man said, but the ants hadn't come up from down there yet.

So he just chatted nonsense with this bunch of people to delay time. When the ants came up, he could either capture them or leave this place quickly.

The ants were hanging in the air. If any accident happened on the way to capturing the two men, the ants would be in great danger in the air.

It is not appropriate to take action at this time.

When Chen Zhipeng heard Jianguo say that he had some supplies, he thought he was tempted.

So he said, "We have food, corn. We planted corn in the underground caves, but it was all taken away by Nadeau."

"besides."

When Nut heard the word "corn", the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

The most common food he saw at the trade fair was tortillas, which they were all tired of.

I looked around but didn't see any sign of other people.

Is it really true that there are only these two people?

Moreover, these two men did not seem to have guns, only ski poles in their hands, so it seemed that it should be easy to capture them directly.

"How come you can come out when the snow is so thick?" Nut looked back and saw that the ants had not come up yet.

Chen Zhipeng was stunned for a moment, then said:

"Our base is in an underground cave. There is geothermal heat underneath, so the temperature is relatively high. The snow near the cave entrance has melted."

"Oh, there is such a good place..." Nut was absent-minded and kept looking back at the edge of the falling meteorite behind him.

"So are you going? I'll take you there! Call your main force and I'll give you all the supplies. I just want you to kill that Nado." Chen Zhipeng looked excited. The team in front of him looked very strong. Each of them had a rare item like a gun.

When Nut heard him mention the large army, he became more alert.

Are you here to test the bottom?

Nut continued to ask calmly:

"We are willing to go if there are supplies, but how can I trust you? What if this is a trap you set?"

Chen Zhipeng patted his chest vigorously and said, "If there is any problem, you kill me first, is that okay?"

At this moment, Jianguo saw Zhao Ke and Liao Fan climbing up from the edge of the crater, followed closely by Ant and Sun Erzhang.

Their bodies were just blocked by the spiral propeller, so Chen Zhipeng did not see the ants climbing up.

"What's the matter?" the ant hurried over to the nut and asked.

Nut pursed his lips in the direction of the two people and said, "I was just hanging there chatting, you guys finally came up."

"Do you want to go or not?" asked the ant.

After thinking for a moment, Nut said, "Catch those two people and torture them to see if we can get any useful information out of them. If not, let them go."

"Time waits for no one. We have been out for more than an hour." The ant said anxiously.

Nut hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, the mission is important."

He waved to the others, "Get in the car, let's go!"

Chen Zhipeng and the other man on the opposite side saw that they were about to leave, and came over anxiously with their ski poles.

"Don't leave!"

When Nut and others saw them coming, they immediately raised their guns and pointed them at them.

When Chen Zhipeng saw them holding guns, he was so scared that he stopped immediately, and Chen Jiansheng next to him accidentally fell.

"Jiansheng!" Chen Zhipeng blurted out in Chinese.

He just communicated with Jianguo in English.

Jianguo and his friends were wrapped up very tightly and wore cold-proof helmets on their heads, so their races could not be identified at all. So Chen Zhipeng tentatively communicated in English. After hearing Jianguo's fluent and authentic English, he thought they were Europeans or Americans.

Nut and Ant, who were less than ten meters away from them, looked at each other in surprise when they heard Chen Zhipeng speaking Chinese.

Ant raised his gun and asked in Chinese: "Are you Chinese?"

Chen Zhipeng supported Chen Jiansheng and was extremely surprised when he heard Ant asking in Chinese.

"You, you speak Chinese?"

"Answer my question." The ant said coldly.

"We are Chinese. My grandfather was Chinese," Chen Zhipeng said, taking off his mask.

The skin color of local Filipinos is darker, but Chen Zhipeng's face looks almost the same as theirs, and he can speak fluent Chinese.

After Chen Zhipeng took off his mask, his expression changed and he asked excitedly:

"You are Chinese, right? We are both Chinese. After the end of the world, the Filipinos excluded us."

"We finally found that natural cave as a shelter, but a bully from Nado took advantage of it and killed many of us."

Chen Zhipeng excitedly accused Nadeau of crimes, with tears in his eyes, and knelt down to beg Ant and his friends for help.

The ant sighed when he heard this.

After the end of the world, things will definitely get worse.

"What should I do? Do you want to help?" Nut asked with his hands spread out.

Ant stared at Chen Zhipeng and the other man, narrowing his eyes. "Search them first to see if they have any weapons or communicators, and check the surroundings to see if there are any accomplices. At the same time, ask the judge and get his advice."

"Okay." Nut nodded.

Ant looked at Sun Erzhang and Qu Congzhou, "You two, bring them here."

"yes."

Sun Erzhang and his companions stepped forward carefully, brought Chen Zhipeng and the other man over, searched them all over, but found no weapons or communicators.

Chen Zhipeng and the other man were quite cooperative. They seemed to trust Ant and the others very much since they knew they were Chinese.

Sun Erzhang shook his head, indicating that no communicator or weapons were found.

Seeing this, the ant asked the two men, "How far is the cave you mentioned from here? How many people are there in Nado? How strong are their armed forces?"

"It's three kilometers, and we have to climb over two mountains to get there. Nadeau has more than thirty people under his command, but only Nadeau has a pistol. He used it when he robbed our cave before, but I haven't seen him use it since."

Such a dish?

Nut and Ant were both a little bit unbelieving.

A small team of thirty people with only a pistol can become the king?

But now it is the seventh year of the apocalypse. With continuous natural disasters, rampant zombies, and food shortages, it is not easy for the survivors to survive. How could an outlier like the Big Camphor Tree Base not only not become weaker, but become stronger and stronger.

They even started producing bullets and artillery shells at an early stage.

During these seven years, most of the survivors' stock of bullets had already been used up. In the face of crisis after crisis, they could not save bullets even if they wanted to.

The gun cannot be repaired yet.

Gradually degenerating into the era of cold weapons, a man with a gun, with dozens of strong men under his command, could easily become the king in their small area.

"I'll go ask the judge." Nut whispered to the ant.

"Um."

A few minutes later, the ant got off the car, took the nut aside and said:

"The judge meant that we should discern the truth of what they said and make our own decision. If we want to help, we should be given an hour at most."

"So, we have to help them, and we have to do it as soon as possible. Ignore them and just follow the judge. We have to leave now."

Helping Chen Zhipeng and the others also has its benefits. At least we can lay a stake in the Philippines. If we encounter any problems on the way back, we can also take shelter in their underground cave.

According to them, the underground cave has geothermal energy and a relatively high temperature, making it suitable as a temporary shelter.

"What do you think?" Nut asked back.

The ant shrugged. "I've always disliked the monkey. Since we're not far away, why not go over and take a look?"

"Okay, let's go." Jianguo had already had this idea.

The two hit it off and set off quickly.

In order to ask them for directions, we could reach the underground cave they mentioned more quickly.

So Nut asked them to get into the spiral propeller.

After Chen Zhipeng and the other person entered the car, they took off their clothes because it was too hot.

"Follow this direction, after crossing the two snow-capped mountains in front, there will be a rocky mountain. It is very easy to recognize. There is snow everywhere else, but there is no snow around the entrance of the rocky cave." Chen Zhipeng said, pointing ahead.

The ant nodded and said to Sun Erzhang, "Follow the direction he said."

The nut at the back was hung far away from the car where the ant was, just in case it was a trap.

The spiral-propelled vehicle was extremely fast. It took Ant and his team less than five minutes to reach a place that originally required Chen Zhipeng and his team to slide for twenty minutes.

Co-pilot Li Leqi looked at the halfway point of the snow-capped mountain in front of him. The snow-capped mountain was not high, but a black hole suddenly appeared on the mountainside.

Moreover, hot air continued to come out of this cave entrance. The white hot air formed lines and was extremely prominent in the area.

The hot air melted the snow near the cave entrance, forming a circle without snow, surrounded by grayish-white limestone rocks and very little soil.

"Look, is this the place?"

The ant quickly looked in that direction, turned his head and stared at Chen Zhipeng and asked, "Is this it?"

Chen Zhipeng nodded quickly and said, "Yes, it's here. There is no one outside the cave entrance, but ten meters inside there are two of Nado's men. In addition, there is a wooden gate installed at the entrance to prevent zombies from entering."

"Also, there are a lot of caves inside, but there is only one path leading underground. I can take you down later."

After thinking for a moment, Ant picked up the car intercom to contact Nut.

"Nut, you should have seen the hole, I'll take some people down to explore first, you help me watch outside."

"I see. Okay, contact me anytime if anything happens." Nut watched the ant's pusher in front of him climb up the mountainside and approach the entrance of the cave.

"Okay." Ant put the walkie-talkie back to its original position.

The spiral propulsion vehicle also arrived at the side of the cave entrance halfway up the mountain.

The screw-propelled vehicle makes very little noise while running, and it is also an electric vehicle, so there is no noisy engine sound.

In addition, it slides by rotating, so there is very little noise.

After the car stopped, the handbrake was immediately engaged, and four steel rods extended from the chassis of the car and were directly inserted into the snow to stabilize the sliding car body.

The ant said to the people behind him:

"Sun Erzhang, Li Leqi, Qu Congzhou, the three of you follow me in, the rest of you stay at the entrance of the cave!"
