Chapter 615
"Someone is coming!"
Zhang Su took off his sunglasses and looked east along the direction of the railway bridge. At the end of his line of sight, more than twenty figures were stumbling along the tracks.
"What is it?"
"People?"
After hearing this, everyone looked in the direction Zhang Su was gazing. They wouldn't doubt Zhang Su's warning because the probability of him being wrong was extremely low.
Sure enough, in the far distance, there were figures swaying. In this environment, as long as something was moving, it was definitely worth being vigilant about!
Wild animals were basically extinct. Except for those bred in the camp, the poultry and livestock in the village had long since died out. There wasn't even any wind, which meant you couldn't even see floating plastic bags...
It was difficult to judge the specific distance of the suddenly appearing crowd. It felt like about four to five kilometers, which was about the same as the straight-line distance from Heavenly Ma Yu to the railway bridge. Coupled with various debris blocking the view and the gloomy weather, it was difficult to discover them unless you were staring at them very carefully.
Someone wanted to take binoculars, but found that they weren't very useful for today's mission, so they didn't bring them. Fortunately, they were carrying guns, and those with quick reactions immediately raised their guns to aim into the distance.
"Quite a few people..."
"Look like refugees?"
"Damn, can't see clearly, the scope is a bit blurry..."
"Big brothers and sisters, quick, why don't we hide first?"
Temporary member Zhou Haotian shook his head violently toward the maintenance platform, his face looking nervous.
Of course, everyone wouldn't listen to a temporary member's words and looked at Zhang Su one after another.
Zhang Su curled his lips, walked to the platform without committing himself, and everyone also left the tracks one after another, moving to the maintenance platform to use the terrain to block the view.
"Brother Su, didn't your eyes have problems? Is this... having been beaten into a binocular attribute?"
Qi Xiaoshuai leaned against the railing and teased with a grin.
After this, everyone felt even more that Zhang Su's vigilance was awesome. That group of people could be said to have just emerged from behind the cover when they were discovered by Zhang Su. They couldn't see clearly even with scopes; this was simply too divine! "Took quite a few old punches; my nearsightedness was beaten into farsightedness. Do you want to experience it?"
Zhang Su clenched his fists, and his gloves made a creaking sound.
Everyone waved their hands with a smile, only Tachibana Mai Sakura had a thoughtful look on her face, but she had always been serious and didn't laugh, so no one cared about her expression.
"How is it such a coincidence? They didn't come early, didn't come late, but they came when we were on the railway bridge performing a mission..."
Liu Tianji looked at the black and white world, his brows slightly furrowed.
"Perhaps survivors often escape along the railway, but we didn't set up sentries nearby, and we rarely come here, so we didn't discover it."
Zhang Su spread his hands. He had really ignored this problem before. There might be many restrictions on the ground that made it impossible for people to move long distances, but if they followed the railway line, going from one city to another would become much simpler.
"Then what should we do now? Withdraw first, and wait for them to pass before we come up?"
Zheng Xinyu asked.
If someone else had said it, Zhang Su wouldn't have considered it, but since this came from Zheng Xinyu, he had to think about it. After all, she also had a precedent for successful risk avoidance. But given the misjudgment of the difficulty last time, he felt that some problems shouldn't be judged too subjectively.
"Nowadays, except for us, there shouldn't be any large survivor camps in the north of Qincheng. I can't see clearly, but I feel that there are no fewer than twenty people in that group, which can be considered a fairly large team. We can't let them pass through at will. It's better to make contact and ask about the situation!"
Zhang Su said cautiously.
"Big brother is right. Nowadays, this vast land should be our territory on Heavenly Ma Yu. If they get off the railway bridge from somewhere, we wouldn't even know, which is definitely not right!"
Zhao Dezhu was the first to agree with Zhang Su's decision.
Subsequently, many people nodded, thinking that no matter what, they should make contact. Due to resource issues, there was a natural hostile attribute between strange survivors. Since they had discovered them, there was no reason to turn a blind eye. Zheng Xinyu shrugged: "I have no opinion. So are we just waiting for them to come over, or are we going to meet them?"
"Don't keep asking questions. You tell me, is it appropriate to wait here, or to meet them?"
Zhang Su was depressed. He had just wanted to ask, but Zheng Xinyu had said his lines first.
"Hey, why can't I even ask questions? That's bullying!"
Zheng Xinyu was very depressed. Others could ask questions, but it wasn't allowed when it came to her.
"It's not bullying. I also happen to want to test you. Come on, you say it, whether to meet them or wait, and see if your judgment ability has improved."
Other members of the Yama Legion looked at Zhang Su and Zheng Xinyu's bickering with smiles. They didn't think Zhang Su's words had any water in them, only the person speaking knew...
Zheng Xinyu glared at Zhang Su with a strange expression and thought seriously for a few seconds with her brows knitted: "If there is no conflict, there is no difference between the two. If there is a conflict, of course it's better to stay away from the high-speed train. If the train is damaged and the zombies inside jump out, it won't be good for anyone!
Besides, I also thought about an ambush plan. The railway bridge is bare, and I feel it's not easy to hide. If we want to hide, we can only hide under the cars, right?"
"Hide my ass. Do you think the other side really didn't see us?"
Zhang Su shook his head and directly denied the last plan proposed by Zheng Xinyu.
"Ah?"
Zhou Haotian's expression stiffened. He had been complacent because he had reminded everyone to hide, but after hearing Zhang Su's words, it was like a basin of cold water poured over his head.
"Do they also have clairvoyance in their team?"
Zhou Haotian used the word "also" very cleverly, meaning that in his heart, Zhang Su was no different from clairvoyance, using this way of praise to relieve his embarrassment.
Zhang Su curled his lips and smiled: "They might not have clairvoyance, but if I were leading the team, I would definitely arrange for brothers to scout the situation ahead. Since we have already seen their main force, then you tell me, have they already seen us too?
Furthermore, even if they didn't see us, the cars under the railway bridge are very conspicuous, lined up neatly. As long as they aren't blind, they can see them!"
"Sigh, then what are we hiding for? Little Zhou, you're doing something unnecessary!"
"Yeah... Brother Su is right. Then let's not say anything else, shall we go?"
"Don't be in a hurry!"
Zhang Su waved at everyone: "Leave all the tools here, highest alert. Once you find anything wrong with the other side, don't ask, just shoot and kill them all! Old Tan, understand?"
With the development of the camp becoming more and more powerful, Zhang Su's attitude toward strangers who appeared suddenly became more vigilant and cold. The survivors of several branches also belonged to strangers, but with acquaintances who had fought side by side as a connecting link, they could be considered to know the bottom line in a certain sense.
Facing true stranger survivors was not only related to their own safety but also related to the entire camp!
"Ah? Oh, alright!"
Tan Huajun knew why Zhang Su pointed at her, and a firm look flashed across her chubby face.
Everyone didn't hesitate anymore, threw their tools onto the maintenance platform one after another, and put the ugly hats on their heads. After getting used to wearing them, everyone didn't want to plant bulletproof leather into their helmets anymore. These hats were more convenient to wear, fit better, and were more deceptive.
Zhang Su greeted Jia Shiqin, who was guarding the cars below. Everyone checked their firearms, opened the safety, and marched forward with their guns in a high posture, just like soldiers entering the front line of war, but three people were different.
Tachibana Mai Sakura held a dagger in each hand, which were the long and short daggers found in Gong Chengming's room. The beautiful blades looked very enchanting even on an overcast day. She had given the daggers to Yi Xiaoling before, and Yi Xiaoling thought they were good for grafting, and then she felt it was a waste of heaven's gifts, so she took them back...
The grip looked casual, but in fact, the short dagger she held in her right hand could be thrown as a flying knife at any time. The distance might not have much lethality, but within twenty meters, she could basically hit whatever she aimed at.
The remaining two were temporary members Zhou Haotian and Ke Zhiyu. They didn't have rifles, only small pistols.
