There was also a burst of sighs from the brothers:

"It's another big bowl full. You won't be able to turn your intestines after eating this!"

"Hey! We came to the oil city at the right time. Finally we don't have to go hungry."

"It's a pity that Sanpao and the others didn't come. They won't be able to enjoy the same blessings as us."

....

Listening to the discussions of the brothers around him, Tong Rugui was filled with emotion.

Yes, actually the brothers’ requirements are not high, they just want to have food every day.

Who the hell wants to fight all day long when they have something to eat? They are all forced.

At this moment, he felt someone tap him on his shoulder.

"Old Tong."

It's Tu Wentan.

When Tong Rugui saw this former rival, she smiled and said:

"What?"

Tu Wentan pointed around and said:

"When this trading market is completed, I plan to stay here. I want to ask if you will stay?"

Tong Rugui asked with wide eyes:

"Stay here? Then you will have no freedom and you will completely become a part of Oil City. Can you go back to the cave?"

"As far as I know, they have four levels here. If you stay then, you will just be a cooperator."

Tu Wentan smiled and said:

"It's not important. I've understood one thing in the past two days. I'm tired. It's too tiring to lead so many brothers to live in this cruel end of the world."

"In this world, after all, the big fish eats the small fish, and the small fish eats the shrimp."

"We little shrimps will always be eaten by others. We can only enjoy the shade with our backs against the big trees."

"Freedom is not that important anymore. Having something to eat is important."

Tong Rugui frowned and asked:

"What about your cave? You don't want such a good location?"

Tu Wentan smiled bitterly and said:

"Do you think that cave is really that good? Natural disasters occurred frequently in the past few years. Even if the crops grown in the cave were not trampled by zombies, they were still affected by natural disasters."

"The output is not much, and a large part of it is used to pay protection fees to the North."

Hearing this, Tong Rugui felt a little bitter in her heart.

The word "protection fee" is like a big mountain weighing on them.

So he thought again and again and said:

"Let me think about it, the trading market has not been completed yet. We will wait until it is completed. Food is supplied here, but after it is built, it will definitely not be given to us again."

"But at least you don't have to pay protection fees anymore, right?" Tu Wentan said slowly, his eyes shining.

"This...is indeed true." Tong Rugui smiled after hearing this.

Tu Wentan put her hands on his shoulders and looked at the people outside who were still queuing up to receive food. She sighed with emotion: "These days are not getting better..."

"Yeah..." Tong Rugui murmured softly.

....

Night falls.

The searchlights on the walls of Oil City shine back and forth.

The drone was flying overhead, making a whining sound.

Li Yu went to bed early.

However, some people were tossing and turning and couldn't sleep at all.

This person is none other than Dai Jiusheng.

In the evening this evening, Li Gang suddenly found him and asked him to join him in a combat mission tomorrow.

He was very pleasantly surprised, because as far as he knew, this kind of external combat mission had the highest points gain after completion.

But after the surprise, he felt a little nervous.

Because he had to go hundreds of kilometers away, his son was still here in Oil City.

Now I am patrolling outside Oil City. My son is in Oil City and can be seen at a glance not far away.

Looking at his sleeping son, he decided to see if he could talk to Dongtai tomorrow and ask him to help find someone to take care of his son.

After thinking about it, he closed his eyes.

The moonlight outside the window is very bright, like a gorgeous moon-white robe spread on the earth.

One night passed.

.....

The next day.

It's just dawn.

Dai Jiusheng was awakened by the sound of a whistle outside. He quickly got up and put on the combat uniform given to him yesterday. He had not received the firearm yet.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After putting it on, he hurriedly took his son and ran out.

When he went out, he saw dozens of people neatly dressed standing in an open space not far away.

He saw Dongtai at a glance, so he quickly took his son and ran to Dongtai and told him about his son.

Dongtai looked at him and frowned, then said: "Okay, hurry up and get in line, the team will set off soon."

"Okay, thank you!" Dai Jiusheng bowed towards Dongtai, then quickly gave instructions to his son, and then ran towards the team.

Xiao Jun saw him coming and said, "Come here and get the gun!"

"Yes!" Dai Jiusheng stood at attention and ran over.

After receiving the automatic rifle from Zhou Tian, ​​as well as a combat backpack with four magazines, grenades... and other equipment, he quickly put on his backpack and came to the back of the team with the gun on his shoulder.

Xiao Jun waited here for a while until he saw that almost everyone had arrived.

So he shouted to the people who were lined up in a square formation and fully armed:

"stand at attention!"

"Everyone has it, count!"

"1"

"2"

.....

Many of these people are the subordinates that Xiao Jun has always brought with him. These people basically came out of the army and went on expeditions in the past few years.

I've seen blood, massacred cities, and fought my way in and out of zombies.

He also once blocked the terrifying zombie wave on the wall.

It has been sharpened to the point of being as sharp as a sword.

Dai Jiusheng, standing at the back, listened to the people in front reporting the numbers.

He held a familiar gun in his hand and wore some unfamiliar yet familiar uniform.

He couldn't help but tighten his grip on the gun slightly, and that muscle memory was instantly restored.

At this moment, he felt an urge to cry.

Still the same taste, still the same feeling.

This feeling is the power of the collective.

Invincible and fearless.

After listening to what Xiao Jun said above, there are some things to note.

"Do you understand everything?"

"Understood!" Dai Jiusheng shouted forcefully.

The veins on his neck were exposed and his eyes were firm.

At this moment, he felt alive!
