Chapter 14: Hell Highway

The sun is shining and there are no clouds.
These words should be used to describe sunny and beautiful weather, but in this era, living creatures are going to suffer from hell.
The high temperature of nearly 50 ° C and above, along with the intense sunlight that will be blinded at one glance, continues to bake this land.
On a national road that stretches for dozens of kilometers, the once smooth asphalt road has been softened like a sponge, which has been roasted by the hot high temperature, covered with air holes, and melted into the original asphalt flowing on both sides of the road.
If you walk on it barefoot, within 5 seconds, the bottom of your feet will emit a strong smell of roasted meat.
In addition, there are many rusty and various scrapped vehicles paralyzed on the roadside.
The skull bones in the driver's seat proved that the disaster five years ago was so sudden that they were too late to step on the brakes and crashed into the roadside fence to destroy the car, or were lucky enough to survive. The corpse-living inhabitants ate into bones.
At this time, Xia Leng tied several layers of self-made insulation plywood under his feet, and stepped on this road that exuded hot steam like a swamp.
He gasped slightly in his mouth, holding the kettle with only a third of the pure water in his hand, and pulled the hood to the eyebrows to block the burning sun that can cause ultraviolet damage to the eyes.
旅途 The difficulty of this journey is far beyond his imagination. Under the consumption of scorching sun and drinking water, in order to maintain the physical strength of walking, only half a day is left.
This location is more than halfway from the fortress of another city
I continued like this, and before I reached my first destination, I estimated that I would be dried into a dry body on this road due to dehydration.
The remaining rations must be used to maintain physical strength for a hunting trip in order to support oneself to another city.
When Xia Leng saw a van next to it that crashed on the road rail and destroyed a small half of the car's head, he directly opened the rear door with serious peeling paint and drilled in. He wanted to temporarily recover his energy in the interior of the car and avoid the hot sun.
Although the temperature inside the car is also baked like an oven, breaking the windows to keep the air flowing is better than standing directly in the sun.
After digging into the car, Xia Leng saw two strange skeletons lying on the front of the two main and co-drivers.
They should have died directly after a car accident, which is also the happier type.
After Xia Leng got into the car, she searched the corners of the car for the first time, and wanted to see if there was any food to replenish her physical strength, or she could use tools, even food that had expired for five years.
However, as expected, all valuable items and even the clothes that the two skeletons once wore were searched by other passing people.
Feeling helpless, Xia Leng had to take a short rest in this broken van first, wait a while and go to a small forest by the road to see if he can hunt any small prey.
Of course, the so-called small prey, the smallest will not be less than thick and long arms.
If you encounter mutant mammals, in the case of a single person, you can only escape.
However, Xia Leng has now acquired special abilities, and may have some strength to fight with them.
I just lay down on the torn rear seat in the car for a while.
Suddenly!
数 There are several intense roars on the highway behind!
And as the approach approached, the roar grew more and more harsh!
让 This made Xia Leng immediately lie on her side in a vigilant manner and quickly close the open and airy door.
About half a minute later, the roar quickly approached the area within a hundred meters of Xia Leng's area.
出来 He heard it, it was the sound of a motorcycle.
Xia Xialiang's first reaction was not to ask a driver of a motorcycle for a ride, but to lie down quickly from the seat and try not to let himself appear in the other person's field of vision.
In the wild rules of the last days, if a group of people meet a single person, everyone will naturally know what will happen.
Through the broken rear-view mirror, Xia Leng faintly saw a few strong men wearing sunshade helmets and punk-style leather jackets, driving retro motorcycles transformed with obsolete parts towards this position.
的 The thick iron chains hanging on the surface of their clothes hit the metal bumps of tinkling cymbals against each other in the bumps of the motorcycle.
为了 In order to prevent the wheels from being scrapped on this near-melted asphalt road, they also installed a track-like metal chain on the tire surface in advance to reduce the contact area with the hot road.
Xia Leng held the dagger tightly in his right hand, and placed his fingertips on the crossbow trigger obtained from the collar, aiming at the window.
If they are the first to discover their existence, Xia Leng will pull the trigger without hesitation and take the first drop of blood.
家伙 These guys should be self-organized eschatologists, just like the speeding party in the old days, relying on robbing and killing the single refugees for a living.
Judging from the modified high-power shotguns that don't hang on their waists, they still belong to the kind with no fear.
As these runaways get closer, Xia Leng's mood calms down, and various countermeasures have been calculated in his mind to resist them.
But fortunately, the van that Xia Leng was waiting for was nothing special compared to other scrapped vehicles around, so naturally it did not attract the attention of this group of people.
They drove away after passing the location.
And even the motorcycle was loaded with worn-out subwoofers, playing dirt along the way Hi DJ ...
Maybe during the daytime, UU reading books www.uukanshu.com mutant creatures able to act can not catch up with their motorcycles, so they are so fearless.
Tong Xia Leng watched them gradually move away, only a little relieved, and even felt a pity in her heart ...
I waited for a while in the car and determined that there was no other wave of thugs. Xia Leng walked out of the car, and he decided to continue on his way.
In the sign of the waste land map, he is now about ten kilometers ahead, and there will be a gas station in the old era.
It is said that the gas station is also under the jurisdiction of the Komodo Mercenary Company and has been transformed into a wasteland bar, where it can also replenish itself with some food and water sources, although the price is expensive.
夏 In Xia Leng's backpack, there was also a palm-sized bag full of spar, which was also searched from the leader's house.
The tadpoles are all ordinary spar obtained from small mutant creatures, which are not too expensive, but the water in this kettle is more than enough.
Xia Leng feels that since being infected by this [black light virus], the body needs to consume more calories. He can usually support himself for two days of food, and now he is only enough for himself.
Moreover, with the experience that the blue spar of the former Baptist's head was absorbed in his palm and disappeared, he also tried it with the spar in the bag.
Almost immediately after being placed in the palm of the hand, I was wrapped by the tentacles extending out of the palm, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
I just didn't bring myself other abilities this time, maybe these spar are too low grade.
检查 After checking the equipment on her body again, Xia Leng once again set out on his own way of no return.
