Code of Wasteland Survival

Chapter 174 Survivors of the Mine Disaster

Although the relationship between Xiaolei and Qi Lin was just roommates, Qi Lin was deeply puzzled by this boy's abnormal behavior.

In this era, words such as visiting and traveling can only be seen in those tattered old-time magazines and books. Generally, residents in slums, unless they are going to receive quota distribution of daily necessities or go to the black market to trade, Most people are actually squatting at home - not only because they consume less energy in their residences, but also for safety reasons.

In the corner of some black markets, there is a kind of butcher shop that specializes in selling processed jerky. The price is nearly half that of pork in the regular market, and there is no obvious trace of radiation sickness on it, but Qi Lin never Will buy it, because he knows where the meat comes from.

You guy... I hope I don't see you in the black butcher's shop... Qi Lin hurriedly ate something, then left the residence and went straight to the underground black market.

The rebellion in Vault 188 has been quelled. Therefore, life in Vault 187 has returned to normal. The black market is still full of people, but there are fewer old faces and many new ones. face.

Xiao Lei has never been to the underground black market, and sometimes Qi Lin asks him to purchase supplies in the formal material trading market set up by the shelter officials. Many businessmen in the black market know Qi Lin, but they definitely don't know Xiao Lei.

However, if you want to inquire about a person's whereabouts, there are often more intelligence and information in the black market.

As soon as Qi Lin entered the black market, a gun dealer who knew him well said hello to him: Hey, Sight, I haven't seen you here for a long time, how are you doing, have you made any good products for my buddies to see? , buddy's bid will definitely not lose you!

Qi Lin smiled at the bearded man dressed like a cowboy in the old western America, and said, I've been squatting at home these days, dealing with that game, and I just came out today.

Tsk, with your skills, you must be able to get along well in the 'wasteland' world, right? But buddy, I can only make some extra money occasionally, and sometimes I have to put points into the game in exchange for survival resources— —” The gun dealer played with the Colt M1873 frontier shooter that he regarded as a treasure in his hand. If he added a cowboy hat, this product could almost be the protagonist of an old-time western.

It's okay, so what's the news recently? Qi Lin took out two crushed cigarettes from his pocket, and threw one at the other party.

After the war, the level of information dissemination of human beings has fallen back for nearly hundreds of years. Newspapers and magazines have long been leftovers of the previous era. If you want to obtain new information, you can only rely on word of mouth among people, or It is a large publicity screen set up in the middle of the material trading market.

News? Yes! The rebels were probably desperate before, but Te Niang actually used powerful weapons. Fortunately, we were lucky. The rebels only destroyed half of the wealthy district and half of the middle district. The cleaning work has been digging for several days, and it is said that a mine tunnel that was buried by an accident was dug the day before yesterday, and there are still living people in it! The gun dealer said loudly, and all the saliva splashed on his beard.

Huh? Mine tunnel? Qi Lin was taken aback, he felt that he seemed to be able to guess what Xiao Lei was going to do.

Yeah, this matter has been rumored in several nearby shelters in the past two days. It is said that the group of people lived in the mine for more than half a year. At the beginning, dozens of people were buried in it, and finally they were rescued alive. There are less than ten left.

More than half a year ago... Didn't this just happen to be the time when Xiaolei's parents had an accident? As for the mine vein, there is only one here, and the two shelters 187 and 188 are mining at the same time.

In other words, the rescued survivors should be the diggers who were considered dead in the accident. Little Lei must have gone to his parents after hearing the news in the trading market. , but, I don’t know if there are any of his parents among the only survivors...

However... for half a year, how did those people survive? Even if there is enough food and water in the mine, but not enough oxygen, those people can't survive for a week, let alone half a year? Qi Lin was full No matter how you think about it, it is almost impossible to survive in that desperate situation for more than half a year.

Oxygen... come here, keep your voice down... I have exclusive news... The gun dealer and Qi Lin beckoned, and after Qi Lin approached, he whispered, It is said that those survivors found some kind of plant in the ground. Substances can turn carbon dioxide into oxygen like photosynthesis of plants, but they don’t need sunlight—of course, I just heard about it, but the reliability is very high. Not only did those troops not evacuate shelter 188, but during this period It has been tuned a lot from various places - think about it, if there is such a thing, this is a treasure!

Qi Lin nodded in agreement. Oxygen circulation has always been the top priority in the shelter, and its importance is no less important than food production and sewage purification. If this new substance is really discovered, it may be okay. The limit time for people to return to the ground is delayed for a while.

However, in this way, Vault 188 must be in a state of total martial law. Leaving aside whether Xiao Lei's parents are still alive, if he wants to meet the survivors, he will probably go through many difficulties.

It is impossible for Qi Lin to go to No. 188 for refuge now. According to the gun dealer, after the news spread, just yesterday, the refuge officials have temporarily closed the passage between the two refuges, only allowing Railcars carrying supplies pass by.

Xiaolei is going to find his parents, and the risks involved are extremely great. Let alone the dangers that he may encounter on the road, if he fails to make up his game time there within a week, it is very likely that he will You will be in a predicament of losing supplies.

In other words, if Xiao Lei fails to find his parents, the possibility of coming back is infinitely close to zero.

Qi Lin sighed. This kind of thing is beyond his control. Although he can be regarded as an orphan without father and mother, he can understand the kind of affection between other people and his parents—even if Xiao Lei does it. He was not in the game when he made this decision, so he probably couldn't stop him.

Now that things have come to this, Qi Lin can only silently wish Xiaolei good luck in his heart.

By the way, apart from this, there is another big news, but it is in the game. An hour ago, those Koreans in the north took advantage of a blizzard to attack a Russian city on the edge of the tundra. It’s hot, it’s said that the number of melees has exceeded 30,000, and it has also attracted many mutated creatures, and most of the permafrost tundra has become a mess.”

an hour ago? This happened to be when Qi Lin just went offline. However, for the players in Huaxia District, the war between Maozi and Bangzi has little to do with them, unless...

I heard that several consortiums based in the north in the game are secretly recruiting troops, intending to reap a wave of profit. By the way, is your position in the game world in the north? I think if you join those big consortiums, you can With your craftsmanship, you will definitely not have to worry about eating and drinking!
