Chapter 60: Divergent

　　 "Okay."
　　 "Yes."
"no problem."
　　 "Get in the car."
　　 Bai Chen, Long Yuehong, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao almost spoke in unison, without hesitation.
　　 The young man wearing a dark shirt and trousers inside and a black windbreaker went around the front of the car, went to the passenger seat, and opened the door.
　　 He smiled lightly to Jiang Baimian and said:
　　 "Can you go to the back row?"
　　 "No problem, you sit, you sit." Jiang Baimian stood up enthusiastically and stepped aside.
　　Wait until the man took off the silver rifle behind her back and sat down in the co-pilot position. She bent down slightly and smiled flatteringly:
"How may I address you?"
　　 The black-haired and golden-eyed man frowned slightly invisibly:
　　 "Qiao Chu."
　　 "It sounds so good." Jiang Baimian did not stingy with praise.
　　 "Look at people's names, look at yours." Shang Jian Yao slammed Long Yuehong with his head sideways.
　　Long Yuehong is not strange at all, echoing:
"Yeah yeah."
　　 In their admiration, Jiang Baimian opened the rear door and said to Shang Jian Yao:
　　 "Move to the middle."
　　 Before she finished speaking, she changed her words again:
　　 "No, you get down first, I'll sit in the middle."
　　 Not too happy to see Shang and Yao, Jiang Baimian emphasized:
　　 "I am the team leader!"
　　Shang saw Yao reluctantly got off the car and watched Jiang Baimian sit in the middle of the back row.
　　 After hearing the term "group leader" from the gray language, the black-haired and golden-eyed man Qiao Chu subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Jiang Baimian.
　　 Jiang Baimian seemed to have been waiting for a long time, exchanged his eyes and smiled.
　　 Qiao Chu didn't say much, he took his gaze back unhurriedly.
　　 Jiang Baimian was not lost, leaning forward, supporting his chin with one hand, and it was difficult to remove his eyes to appreciate Qiao Chu's side face.
　　 After seeing Yao sitting down again, Shang found that because of his position, he could only see the back of Qiao Chu's head, and from time to time he would be blocked by the chair pillows in front of him, and his face suddenly showed unconcealed disappointment.
　　 Qiao first glanced at the broken bridge ahead, and suddenly asked:
　　 "Do you have anything to eat?"
　　 "Yes!" Bai Chen quickly turned sideways and opened the armrest box.
　　 "Yes!" Jiang Baimian retracted his chin and hurriedly searched for food in his pockets. Shang Jian Yao and Long Yuehong straightened their bodies, turned to the back, and tried to get Qiao Chu canned braised beef.
　　 Without a doubt, Bai Chen was the fastest and handed Qiao Chu a small bag of compressed biscuits and an energy bar.
　　 "That's it. You guys eat a little too. I don't think I will rest at noon. You have to take turns driving." Qiao Chu took the food and gave the order like the leader, but Shang Jian Yao and others had no objection.
　　 After eating the biscuits and energy bars with the water in the water sac, Qiao Chu placed the items and waited for a while, turning his head to Bai Chen:
　　 "It's time to go.
　　 "Go to the hilly area to the northwest."
　　 "Okay." Bai Chen agreed, after having finished lunch, but did not look away.
　　 Qiao Chu stretched out his left hand, patted Bai Chen's right arm, and smiled gently:
　　 "Drive well."
　　 "Okay!" Bai Chen was flattered, and immediately sat upright and started the jeep.
　　 Qiao Chu turned to the back row and smiled slightly:
　　 "I want to take a break. Pay attention to the situation around you and wake me up when you reach the hilly area."
　　 "Good!" Jiang Baimian and others replied in unison.
　　 Qiao Chu didn't speak any more, and turned his head back.
　　 The smile on his face quickly disappeared, and his eyes became extremely cold.
　　 Then, he took out a sky blue box from his pocket and snapped it open.
　　 This box contains a small mirror.
　　 Qiao Chu stared at himself in the mirror, raised his right hand, and carefully straightened his hair.
　　 After repeated inspections, he slowly put away the mirror box, leaned his head back, and closed his eyes.
　　In the evening, the jeep returned to the hilly area where Black Rat Town was located. At this time, Wang Beicheng's 23rd brigade had already gone.
　　 No need to remind, Jiang Baimian and others turned into alarm clocks and awakened Qiao Chu on time.
　　 Qiao first glanced at the dimmed sky:
　　 "I will rest here tonight, and continue to the northwest tomorrow morning."
　　 "Okay." Bai Chen found a familiar campsite and stopped the jeep.
　　 Then, the four of them scrambled to set up the tent, lit a campfire, and took out a few military cans from the trunk.
　　 "You have a lot of supplies..." Qiao Chu sat in the passenger seat with the door open, and watched leisurely as Shang Jian Yao and others were busy.
　　 Not long after, Shang Jian Yao ran over and offered to ask:
　　 "I'll go there to get water."
　　 Qiao Chu followed the direction he pointed, looked at the location of the clean water source, and thought for a few seconds:
　　 "No, our water can last for several days."
　　 "Well, the canned food will be heated in a while, do you need me to sing you a song?" Shang Jian Yao didn't insist at all, and asked instead with a smile.
　　 "..." Qiao Chu looked at Shang Jian Yao with suspicion for two seconds, "No."
　　 "What about the Gold Coast swing hula?" Shang Jianyao asked.
　　 Qiao Chu frowned slightly and said:
　　 "No, I want to be quiet for a while and call me when the can heats up."
　　 "Okay!" Shang Jianyao responded enthusiastically.
　　 After he turned and walked to the campfire, Qiao Chu took out the sky blue plastic box again and opened it with a snap.
　　 Looking at himself in the mirror, Qiao Chu's expression became a little more vivid, and he sighed in a low voice:
　　 "Hey, it's really troublesome..."
　　 In this way, the night passed quietly, and the sun once again rose from the east of the black marsh wilderness.
　　 After having breakfast, after a secret contest, Jiang Baimian finally took advantage of the authority of the group leader to grab the duty of driving, while Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen could only squeeze in the back row rather aggrievedly.
　　 Joe turned his wrist and looked at the mechanical watch, relying on the compass on the dial to determine the position.
　　 "Go in that direction, keep driving." He pointed to a place to the northwest.
　　 Jiang Baimian did not question. He drove the jeep, went around the hilly area first, and then ran straight in the direction Qiao Chu said.
　　 As time goes by, the surrounding terrain has become more and more flat, and the soil has become darker and more rotten. In the end, silt has become the main scenery, and the harder roads have become less and less.
　　 This is heading towards the depths of the swamp.
　　 Compared with Bai Chen, Jiang Baimian's experience in this area is slightly insufficient, and he almost got the car stuck in bottomless mud twice.
　　 She had to give up the driver's seat and returned to the middle of the back row. Bai Chen carefully and hardly drove the jeep like a child expecting to be praised.
　　 The speed of the Jeep has undoubtedly slowed down a lot, until noon, it did not travel more than 30 kilometers, and various plants gradually grew in the surrounding swamp.
　　 Compared to normal, they are either dim or bright in color, and they look strange.
　　 Jiang Baimian still remembered his responsibilities as the team leader, and casually reminded Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong:
　　" If you see similar aberrant plants gathering, it means that you have entered the contaminated area. However, the plants here are not strange enough, not dangerous enough, and the pollution level should not be too high.
"Under such an environment, ordinary people can also move, but if there is no protective equipment, it is best not to exceed three days, and those who have done mature genetic modification can last about ten days, but the premise is that they have prepared in advance. Food and water."
　　 Qiao Chu turned his head again and glanced at Jiang Baimian, but quickly withdrew his gaze, pointing to the side and said:
　　 "Go this way."
　　 "But..." Bai Chen subconsciously wanted to make his own suggestions.
　　The routes she chose are all types that are less polluted and suitable for vehicles. If you change the route rashly, you may encounter the kind of swamp that expands the area, and the car and people sink into it and sink to the bottom.
　　 "Go this way." Qiao Chu emphasized again.
　　 "Good." Bai Chen chose to obey.
　　 After the vehicle diverted, it entered an area that Bai Chen was not familiar with, which slowed down the jeep a lot. Bai Chen needed to drive and judge the road conditions based on his own experience.
　　 About twenty-five minutes later, when everyone in the car finished their lunch and was about to let Jiang Baimian replace Bai Chen, the scene ahead suddenly changed:
　　 In the deep black swamp where you can't see the edge, thick vines with rotten soil drilled out from the bottom, forming a low "forest".
　　 They are blue and black in color, each of them is the thickness of an ordinary python, and there are countless reddish spikes on the surface.
These weird vines are entangled together, covering every area visible to the naked eye in front of the Jeep. Except for the dark swamp itself, everything else has become their embellishment-even the sky seems to be blocked by the low "forest" or something else. The problem ~EbookFREE.me~ became gloomy, gloomy, and depressed.
　　 Seeing this spectacular but terrifying scene, whether it was Jiang Baimian, Bai Chen, Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong, all simultaneously produced an indescribable shock.
　　 In shock, they almost simultaneously had a question:
　　 "Why are we here?"
　　 At this time, Qiao Chu's mouth curled up, showing a gentle smile:
　　 "Don't be nervous."
　　 This voice dispelled the doubts of Shang Jianyao and others, making them look at Qiao Chu obsessively again.
　　 Qiaochu sat up straight, and began to seriously instruct Bai Chen how and where to drive.
　　 Looking at the black and reddish python-like vines passing by the window, Jiang Baimian moved his five fingers with his left hand.
　　 She instinctively took out a pen and paper from her pocket and recorded what she saw.
　　 Shang saw Yao and looked at the back of Qiao Chu's head from time to time, and from time to time he looked out the vines, always feeling that they were bred with great danger.
　　 Just then, he felt a slight bump on his left arm.
　　 Shang Jian Yao turned his head subconsciously and saw Jiang Baimian leaning the white paper in his hand.
　　 He stared at it, and saw the white paper faithfully describing the current scene, and besides that, there was a strange word at the end:
　　"...There is such a severely distorted area in the depths of the Big Swamp, but the magic is that the chip on my left arm tells me that the radiation pollution here is not too serious. Perhaps the pollution has decayed and weakened over time?
　　"...The vines are covered with reddish spikes, as if they were just sucked in blood...
　　 "...The chip on my left arm tells me that the current position and the intended target are different from the south of Qifeng Town..."
