Surprise Hotel
Chapter 127 Frost stays in the cold night
Compared with the bustling city-states, there are only a few dim fires in the mines.
Occasionally, the huge searchlight of the minecart sweeps through, and the surrounding environment will be completely exposed to the field of vision by the white light.
After the rumbling minecart drove away, the mine returned to a brief silence.
Zhao Jiuzhou jumped out of the patrol mecha, took a loaf of bread from his arms, and sat on the huge rock on the hill opposite the mine, gnawing on it.
The food like bread was only recently available. It was a rare thing in the past, but it was made out by the ingenious Xianuo.
The current output is not much. When Lu Xing sent people to give them cold-proof clothes, he only brought some of them to Zhao Jiuzhou.Zhao Jiuzhou only left one, and all the rest was given to his subordinates.
The production capacity of this energy crystal mine is not very huge, but Lu Xing meant to work overtime to finish digging, so as not to have long nights and dreams.
The breeze is blowing on the wasteland, and the environment here is still very comfortable before the night comes.They are armored and wild beasts dare not approach, otherwise they will become meat on the chopping board.
However, after the night is late, the climate on the wasteland will drop more than ten degrees and become extremely cold. Soldiers patrolling outside must wear heavy clothing.
Zhao Jiuzhou moved aside and motioned for him to sit down.
After changing their clothes, the two of them sat side by side on the boulder, tore off a corner of the bread and stuffed it into their mouths.
In this long dark night, facing the north wind, the bread in his mouth was exceptionally sweet.
"You said... our new gentleman is very good, right?" Zhao Jiuzhou suddenly asked his deputy.
"Very good." The deputy grinned, "Intelligent, generous, and selfless, such a monarch has never existed. The food we eat and the water we drink are all thanks to his gifts. The people's representative meeting a few days ago Lastly, my wife made a little proposal about maternity leave for women, and it was approved on the same day! To tell you, my wife has been pregnant for four months, and I will be able to see my son in a few months!"
"Congratulations!" Zhao Jiuzhou slapped his deputy on the shoulder and congratulated.
"I hope the things here will end soon, and I can go home sooner to accompany my wife." The deputy put all the remaining bread into his mouth, not only the stomach is warm, but the heart is also warm.
"Well, as long as the brothers in the mine work harder, we can return to the city in less than a week!" Zhao Jiuzhou said, standing up, "It's time to leave for patrol. There are always beasts lingering nearby at night. We have to keep an eye on it."
The deputy also got up, and the two got on the mecha and went in opposite directions.
Lights were on at the entrance of the mine, and the sound of drilling machines was heard from time to time inside.
Absentees have been in the well, and the only thing that can guarantee their safety is the patrol on the ground.
The mine carts go back and forth every two hours. During these two hours, the patrol team wants to conduct intertwined inspections within one kilometer of each other.
This work was a bit boring, so Zhao Jiuzhou turned on the music player in the mecha.
In this era, although entertainment is not developed, there are still songs to listen to.In every age, every period, there is no shortage of music that can help people relieve their worries.
He set the route, adjusted the mecha to autopilot mode, and then leaned back in the chair to listen to the song.
"Frost stays in the cold night, and my sun disappears for a long time.
I learned that giants run on the wasteland, and I have never looked back since then.
I want to hold the hand of the one I love again, and then look at Yingying eyes again.
But my life is like a flat boat, hard to return to the ferry..."
The lyrics were a bit bleak, and Zhao Jiuzhou suddenly felt empty when he listened.
He hasn't lost anything, and perhaps he hasn't had anything.
This is not worth his troubles, but his emotions are just a little unbearable.
The mecha followed a predetermined trajectory, and the mecha hummed softly to the music.
"Don't be sad for me, don't cry for me, we will meet again before dawn, friend..."
As soon as the singing fell, a loud explosion suddenly sounded not far away.
The flames lit up the night sky for half of the night, Zhao Jiuzhou was awakened from his thoughts, turned off the music, cancelled the autopilot mode, and quickly turned his head to look in the direction of the flames.
To the northwest, there is the hinterland of the mine.
He drove the mecha unknowingly for a kilometer, and the violent explosion light was definitely not from the technical behavior of the mine, but more like someone using a super weapon.
Having been in the army for many years, he knew very well that it was the flame of a cannonball!
Zhao Jiuzhou's heartstrings were forbidden, and he drove back at full force while opening the communication channel to call others.
"To the northwest, report the situation!"
"There is an enemy attack! The coming is very fierce! The defense belt in the northwest has been broken!" The voice in the communication channel yelled, but then suddenly lost the signal, leaving only endless interference noise.
When Zhao Jiuzhou looked up, he found that another fire was rising in the northwest direction.
There is no doubt that someone died in the explosion.
who is it?Who dared to suddenly attack the mines of the new wolf camp?
Zhao Jiuzhou frowned, and went through the possible goals in his mind, leaving only one answer in the end.
Seven kills.
This is the only one among the surrounding camps that dares, and is the only one that can compete with the new wolf camp.
But this mine was obviously Heimkesi was willing to lose to Lu Xing, so why did he launch a sneak attack afterwards?
Zhao Jiuzhou could not understand.
But the opponent was Hemkees, a madman-like tyrant, he could do everything.Then everything seems a little reasonable.
A hole was forcibly torn in the northwest, the defense collapsed, and a large number of mecha fighters poured in.
Zhao Jiuzhou issued an order to gather all his subordinates in that direction, and there was a fierce exchange of fire between the two sides.
Soon, the assault team was wiped out.
And Zhao Jiuzhou also found his dead deputy in the wreckage of the damaged mecha.
A few dozen minutes ago, the two of them had just finished talking about trivial things, and his deputy's wife was about to give birth, and he was overjoyed.But in a blink of an eye, he died on the wasteland, before his child was born.
Zhao Jiuzhou took the body of his deputy out of the wreckage of the mecha, and let out a long roar to vent his resentment.
But at this moment, there was light shining from the other direction.
"Minister, is that...our minecart?" one of the soldiers asked uncertainly.
Everyone turned their heads and looked, only to see that beside the light, countless lights were lit up, and finally connected into one piece.
Those lights, like fireflies, quickly occupied the high ground, and Zhao Jiuzhou realized that he was fooled.
"Well, it's the enemy's plan to move the tiger away from the mountain! The northwest is just a bait released by the enemy, and now they are starting to surround it!"
When the voice fell, the light spots in all directions lit up, surrounding the entire mine.
Those lights are the searchlights on the mecha.
The bright light shines on the wasteland, like frost condensed in the cold night.
