Record: The inventor failed to follow the instructions to continue betting when he was in the casino, resulting in a loss of money. After precise calculations, the machine was 100% error-free, but people would,
Date: June 11, 2007.
As soon as Zhang Jingyi came out of Guo Wei's house, he went straight to the hunter store where he had purchased equipment in his previous rebirths. Because New Jiuzhou was large enough, even after more than three hundred years of development during the Song Dynasty, it was still sparsely populated compared to its homeland in Asia. .
In addition, wild animal resources are relatively abundant. After the gun ban policy was implemented, hunting with crossbows became a very popular sport. You can easily register as a hunter with just two 100 taels of banknotes and a certificate of no criminal record issued by the police station. Hunters, due to the nationwide Internet connection, hunter registration can now be done online, and Zhang Jingyi did it on the car.
Ring ring ring~
"Welcome~" The young waiter lying on the counter heard the wind chime ringing at the door. He immediately cheered up and stood up to say hello. He looked around at Zhang Jingyi: "This must be the first time for this guest? What kind of equipment do you want? Although our store is not big, the variety of equipment is definitely the most complete~"
This is true. When Zhang Jingyi was reborn for the third time, he had already done some research online and consulted with several outdoor enthusiasts. Although this store is small, its reviews are surprisingly high.
"A 60-pound hunting bow. It needs a flame-shaped alloy bow handle with competition carbon blades. Two sets of blades and strings. The strings need rabbit hair for shock absorption. 120 aluminum arrows. Half of them need to be bleeding triangular arrows, and the other half need to be durable. Two syringes, arrows and backpack quivers containing anesthetic agents." Zhang Jingyi reported the equipment he needed very familiarly.
Zhang Jingyi had neverHe had played with bows and arrows, so he had to buy a complete set of these things at once, and the equipment just reported was the most convenient combination for him.
The alloy bow handle is strong and durable, will not rust, and will not be susceptible to moisture like the wooden bow body of traditional bows. The competitive carbon blades of Yanzi Gongfang are laminated bow blades made of carbon board foam composite material and have a long service life. long.
"Rebirth of the Great Era of Fighting Waves"
If you only consider accuracy, aluminum arrows are indeed not as useful as carbon arrows, but considering that they can only be used repeatedly if supplies are not available for a long time during the great escape, aluminum arrows are the best choice.
Once carbon arrows and fiberglass arrows are broken, there is no possibility of use. The same is true for wooden arrows, and it is more difficult to maintain consistency. Only aluminum arrows can be corrected after being bent and continued to be used.
The young clerk was slightly surprised. Since bow and arrow hunting players usually hunt in small groups in the wild together, few people prepare so many arrows.
Not to mention the needle-tube arrows specially designed to capture large prey alive?
Could this be a theoretical person who thinks he can do anything after reading a lot of guides on the Internet? With this kind of equipment, don't you plan to hunt large prey alone? Such people are most likely to be in danger in the wild.
"This guest, it is a good season for deer hunting recently, but it is still quite dangerous to be alone in the wild. How about joining a hunting team? I happen to know some hunting experts, and you can learn a lot from it. "
After assembling and stringing the bow that the customer wanted, he put it on the table. The clerk kindly advised him, but Zhang Jingyi grabbed the hunting bow and picked up the three carbon arrows placed next to him.
Nocking an arrow, drawing the bow, aiming in one go, and loosening the string.
Whoosh—boom! Hit the bullseye.
It wasn't over yet, Zhang Jingyi quickly put on a second arrow and shot it out. Before the arrow arrived, the third arrow was already on the string again.
Whoosh~
The second arrow directly exploded the tail of the first arrow and split it in half. The third arrow cut the second arrow open and penetrated deeply into the target until the tail was gone. !
Sure enough, just like the previous times, the skills he had developed in previous rebirths did not show any signs of deterioration due to rebirth, they were still sharp.
The young clerk was stunned, this is definitely a master! Even among the hunters he knew, there were only a few who could do this at a distance of thirty meters. Before, he was worried about whether they would encounter accidents in the wild. At this level, there must be no problem.
"Um...guest, you want a lot of aluminum arrows. Did you drive here? I'll help you move them to the car."
"No, I won't take anything away. I'll give you an address and just send it there. Can you get there on the same day? I'm leaving tomorrow." Zhang Jingyi directly gave the address of Guo Wei's villa.
"Don't worry, we can deliver all goods within this city on the same day. Does the customer need anything else?" the clerk asked enthusiastically.
"Others..." Zhang Jingyi considered the fat man's strength and hesitated: "Do you have the 13th generation of the Divine Arm Crossbow? A classic model with two sets of pulleys. If so, I want two aluminum crossbows with the same specifications. Give me 120... no, 360, and send them to the address just now."
"No problem." This time the clerk found the goods and packaged them for shipment without any doubts.
After completing a task, Zhang Jingyi walked out of the bow store with satisfaction. Zhang Jingyi had already ordered the melee weapon through the Internet. It is also an old store in this city. This thing is not controlled like crossbows. You don't have to go to the store with a certificate. After purchasing, I was prompted for delivery on the way here. Based on Zhang Jingyi's experience, the items are likely to have been delivered.
I happened to be busy all morning and I was a little hungry. I wonder how Guo Wei prepared it? I just wanted to go back and have a look and have some food. Thinking like this, Zhang Jingyi reached out and stopped a taxi.
…
"Brother Monkey, you are finally back~" As soon as Zhang Jingyi opened the door, he was greeted by Guo Wei's fat face with a big smile. Before he could enter the door, Guo Wei grabbed him and ran to the garage to offer his treasure as if he wanted to take credit:
"Dangdang~ How is this car?"
In the garage, a dark, black and plump business car lay quietly in the garage. Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but his eyes shone with satisfaction: "Wuling Pet Light? Yes, you have a great idea. I used it the most during my previous escapes. This is this car. It has a large interior space. It can hold a lot of supplies and sleep directly in it. It is also strong and durable, but..."
Zhang Jingyi clicked his tongue and walked around the car in praise, but when he was halfway around, he suddenly froze.
The original fuel port was gone, replaced by a strange interface. Zhang Jingyi felt a little bad in his heart.
"Isn't this electric?" Zhang Jingyi blurted out.
"That's right, this is the electric version of Wuling Hongguang that I specially asked someone to modify for me, so that it can be used for emergency escape in case of a big disaster. You must not underestimate electric vehicles. The speed of electric vehicles is faster than Gasoline engines are much faster.
This car accelerates from 100 kilometers to 100 kilometers in just 4.9 seconds, which is faster than many sports cars. How about it? Awesome, right? "
Guo Wei had a smug look on his face, as if he was coming to praise me, but Zhang Jingyi covered her face and couldn't bear to look directly, for fear that she could not help but beat this fat man to death.
"Fat man, have you ever thought about where we can charge? You don't think there are charging piles everywhere on this road, do you? Or that the power of the charging piles can still be supplied normally after the city is paralyzed?"
Unexpectedly, when asked by Zhang Jingyi, the fat man became even more proud.
"You don't think I haven't even considered this little thing, do you? Don't worry, Brother Monkey, come and take a look at the outer shell of this car." As he said that, GuoWei patted the outer shell of the car and made an unusual sound that was different from the metal car shell.
Only then did Zhang Jingyi carefully observe the outer shell of the car. It definitely didn't feel like metal or plastic. It felt a bit like...
"That's right! The entire shell of this car is made of solar panels!" Before Zhang Jingyi could come up with a result, Guo Wei announced the answer: "In this way, as long as it is a clear day, we can charge while driving. , how about it, isn't this design amazing?"
"Awesome, awesome, but have you ever thought about a question?" Zhang Jingyi clenched his fists and quietly leaned towards Guo Wei, but Guo Wei was still like an antelope being stared at by a crocodile, unaware of the danger in the water. .
"what is the problem?"
"If you rely on solar energy to charge, how long will it take to fully charge it? Besides, what should I do if it's cloudy? Idiot! I think you want me to be buried with you on purpose~" Zhang Jingyi took advantage of the fat man not paying attention and pinched him till he was itchy. On the meat.
"Haha... don't... Brother Monkey... Haha, I was wrong~ Listen to me," Guo Wei quickly begged for mercy. Zhang Jingyi also let go of the fat man to see what else this guy had to say.
Guo Wei broke away from Zhang Jingyi's control and said sternly: "I know everything you said. How could I not consider the situation on cloudy days? Look," the fat man broke away from Zhang Jingyi's grasp and ran to the car and pulled him away. Open the door.
Zhang Jingyi originally thought that the idea of solar cells was enough to make a thunderstorm. However, he did not expect that he still underestimated this fat man.
After the car door was opened, a spinning bike from the gym was suddenly fixed inside the car, and it was also connected to a weird machine. Based on the fat man's ability to urinate, Zhang Jingyi guessed that this thing was probably a generator.
"What do you think of this design? Isn't it amazing? When it's sunny, we use solar energy to charge it. When there's no power, as long as one person rides the bicycle hard inside, he can still provide power to the car... Brother Monkey, don't fight. ~Hit me again and fight back... Ouch..."
After a while of fighting, the two lay panting on the floor of the garage.
Although Fatty's family is rich, the pocket money that must be given to Fatty every month is still limited, especially after buying supplies, there is not much left, and it is not enough to buy a car.
It is obviously impossible to ask dad for money on the grounds of the end of the world. Fortunately, I had a modified special vehicle before, so I had to use it. If it doesn't work, I can change it later. Zombies use it anyway. I don't know how to drive. I can grab whatever I want.
These were Fatty's exact words. When Zhang Jingyi thought about it, it made sense, so he didn't worry about the car issue anymore.
"Brother Monkey, have you ever thought about where we will end up if we run aimlessly like this?"
"I don't know either."
"What do you think of Xinming Island?"
Xinming Island? Zhang Jingyi thought, this place is quite good.
Although the name is Xinming Island, it is actually a piece of land hanging alone in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, not even much smaller than the European continent where Bai Yi is located. Because it was discovered too late, and because the Central Plains people cannot leave their homeland, the land is so vast and so inhabited. It is rare, so there are fewer zombies than other places, and there are abundant products. Just hunting is enough to survive.
"This is a good idea, but how to get through it?"
"I've thought about it a long time ago. Brother Monkey, please listen to me slowly..." The next day, it was 6:30 in the morning.
Didi, didi...
The alarm clock on Zhang Jingyi's cell phone started ringing. He quickly got up and washed up. At the same time, he woke up the fat man who was so nervous that he stayed awake most of the night and fell asleep in the morning.
"After washing up in ten minutes, it's best to take a shower again, because you won't have a chance to take a shower for a long time. This may be your last chance to take a clean bath~"
Zhang Jingyi lifted the quilt and slapped the fat man's big butt.
"You're such a pervert~" The fat man sneered at the corners of his eyebrows, rolled his eyes at Zhang Jingyi and reluctantly got up.
This piece of shit, if I didn't know that you were a normal person, I wouldn't even dare to live in your house.
Fifteen minutes later, the underground garage of the villa.
Guo Wei checked all the supplies that had been loaded into the car one last time. After confirming that all necessary items were on board, the black electric version of Wuling Pet Light slowly drove out of the community.
Under the guidance of Zhang Jingyi, we drove on a sparsely populated small road. It might be more convenient to take the main road at ordinary times, but in special times, once a large-scale zombie outbreak breaks out on the main road, the road will be blocked by an out-of-control car. Death, when the time comes, will cause the sky to fail and the earth to stop responding.
No one knows exactly when the sudden global zombie crisis began. Zhang Jingyi just remembers that the first news about zombies appeared on the morning news at 7 a.m.
"The latest news is that for unknown reasons, the poplar trees in this city suddenly ripened their fruits in the morning, and the split fruits and poplar catkins were floating all over the city like snowflakes.
It is reported that this situation is not a special case in Luxiufu City. The same situation occurs in new varieties of poplar trees planted in all regions around the world. Experts are analyzing the specific reasons..."
Zhang Jingyi murmured "Let's start" and switched the news channel on the radio to music.
"I saw the smoke rising from the kitchen stove again, and the dusk illuminated the earth..."
Although it was early in the morning, for some reason, the two of them couldn't tell the time as they followed the music, and they suddenly became confused. Guo Wei, who was driving, began to feel nervous.
"I said Brother Monkey, do you think we should wear masks or something like that for protection?" After coming back to his senses, Guo Wei could already vaguely see the floc floating in the air under the morning sun.
"If you don't have respiratory diseases, I don't think it's necessary.It will make your breathing uncomfortable, you are too tense and need to relax. "Zhang Jingyi rarely patiently calmed down his good brother.
"I'm not afraid that you will laugh at Brother Monkey. I originally thought that I would only be excited when encountering this kind of thing. Unexpectedly, as everything you said was confirmed, I became more and more nervous. You..."
Just as he was talking, a figure suddenly jumped out from the road ahead.
"Be careful!" Zhang Jingyi warned loudly but still bumped into him.
boom!
The figure was knocked upside down and flew out. The fat man hurriedly loosened his seat belt and went down to check.
