Chapter 27: Shuiwei Town

　　 Bai Chen immediately slowed down the speed of the heavy motorcycle and looked up to the front.
　　 Hundred meters away, there was a red-brown wall, which stretched to the sides as far as possible, and turned to the rear at the end of Bai Chen's line of sight, as if it were going to be enclosed together.
　　 Most of the bricks of this wall are mottled and old, but a few of them look very new, like they were fired in the last year.
　　 The rusty barbed wire is pulled on and outside the wall, and there is only one road through it.
　　 Between the barbed wire and the wall, on several wooden frames erected behind the wall, there are guards with dirty clothes and chaotic styles on patrols with guns.
　　 It was the guard who warned Bai Chen that he was standing on the tallest wooden frame. He was wearing a yellow-haired stiff shirt inside, and he was wrapped in navy blue, suspicious-padded, bloated clothing that looked very puffy.
　　 The guard carried an automatic rifle on his shoulders, holding a pen-like black object in his hand.
　　 This object emits a red light and shines in front of Bai Chen, forming a small dot.
　　 Bai Chen stopped the motorcycle, took off his helmet, and tried to close the short hair that had just passed his ears back.
　　 She is deliberately showing her female identity.
　　 This is not to fascinate or seduce someone, but to relax the other person a bit and not be so nervous.
　　 She knows very well that above the dust, in places where there is not much order, even if guns can bring the harm of men and women to the same level, they cannot really smooth the gap between the two sides in this respect.
　　 In terms of physique and aggressiveness, men are more dangerous than women.
　　 A stranger is far more scary for men than women.
During the years when Bai Chen wandered in the wilderness, she always presented two different states: when she needed to explore ruins, hunt in the wild, cross more dangerous areas, and trade with certain bandits, she would hide her long hair. Darken her face, change her attire, and make herself look like a man; when she approaches a certain orderly settlement, or deals with relic hunters from big forces, who care more about intelligence and old world information, she will reveal her identity as a woman.
　　 When she was absorbed by the "Pangu Creature", with confidence, she could finally cut a haircut that was equal to her ears, neither long nor short according to her own preferences.
　　 After placing the helmet in front of him, Bai Chen asked the heavy motorcycle to move forward slowly.
　　 During this process, the red light spot swayed in front of her, falling on her motorcycle from time to time. This means that the opponent has taken aim and has not taken care of it.
　　 When the distance between the two parties was narrowed to 30 meters, Bai Chen tilted his motorcycle, supported the ground with one foot, and shouted:
　　 "I'm looking for Mayor Tianer Hetian!"
　　 She repeated it twice, stopped speaking, and waited patiently.
　　 The guard on the wooden frame separates one, and he pedals down along the diagonally laid wooden board.
　　 Five or six minutes later, an old man appeared on the wall.
　　 He wore a furry dark blue hat, as if he had buckled a bowl on his head.
　　 He has very obvious white hair at the temples, sunken eye sockets, skinny face, and wrinkles where wrinkles can grow, and he looks very old.
　　 However, his dark brown eyes are still bright, and his spirit is awkward. It is Tian Erhe, the mayor of this settlement.
　　 He was wearing a white and yellow T-shirt, a crumpled suit full of patches, and a military green coat that was too large and long and obviously did not fit his body.
　　 His lower body is dark yellow woolen trousers. I don’t know how many other trousers are stuffed in it. It looks very bloated.
　　 Tian Erhe looked towards Bai Chen, and carefully distinguished for a few seconds.
　　 "Ah..." He seemed to recognize the other person, but when he wanted to say hello, he found that Bai Chen was too far away, and he could no longer scream as casually as before.
　　 He quickly turned his head, angrily said to the guard next to him:
　　 "Give me my horn!
　　 "Really, not smart at all!"
　　 the guard grievedly responded:
　　 "Your speaker has run out of power a long time ago, and recently I couldn't change the battery of the same type.
　　 "I, I can help you shout..."
　　 Tian Erhe thought for a while and said:
　　 "Help me shout: Bai girl, where did you die this year? I thought you were eaten by a beast!"
　　 "Bai girl..." The guard suddenly realized, "Is that the Bai Chen who used to come before?"
"Who else could she be? I'm in my seventies, my eyes are getting worse and worse, I can recognize you, how come you guy in your early twenties is like a blind man?" Tian Erhe glanced at the guard , Scolded a few words.
　　Everyone in this settlement has become accustomed to Tian Erhe’s temper. The guard didn’t care about the scolding just now, just murmured a few words:
　　 "She looks better than before...I can't tell if you don't look carefully..."
　　 Without waiting for Tian Erhe to stare at him, the guard pulled aside his throat and shouted:
　　 "White girl, where did you die this year? I thought you were eaten by a beast!"
　　 Bai Chen's expression softened unconsciously, and she responded loudly:
　　"Went elsewhere.
　　 "Mayor, let me change something!"
　　 This place is called "Shuiwei Town". Bai Chen heard from Tian Erhe that the name of the town came from before the destruction of the old world and was named after the surrounding waters.
　　 After the destruction of the old world, long-term melee, and multiple geological disasters, the nearby water flow has become a part of the big swamp, which provides a natural defensive wall for Shuiwei Town and brings enough concealment.
　　Only the residents of Shuiwei Town and the guests they have invited can find the roads that seem to be covered with silt in the swamp and arrive here in a maze-like environment.
　　 Compared with the settlements that often have to migrate, the Shuiwei town with clean water sources and a lot of arable land has been here since the destruction of the Old World.
　　 Tian Erhe wanted to talk a few words loudly, but before he really spoke, his throat was itchy, and he couldn't help coughing twice.
　　 "Come in, come in." He waved his hand helplessly.
The guard next to 　　 immediately shouted:
　　 "Come in! Come in!
　　 "Give the gun to the man at the door!"
Snapped! Tian Erhe patted him:
　　 "Who asked you to add the last sentence?
　　 "The white girl is someone you can trust!"
　　 "But she hasn't been here for a year." The guard replied with a strained neck.
　　 Tian Erhe was silent for two seconds, then turned around and walked off the wooden frame without saying anything.
　　 Bai Chen did not resist, and handed all the guns and pistols he was carrying, and the heavy motorcycle, to the guard at the gate.
　　 The iron black door that opened on the opposite side opened immediately.
　　 Tian Erhe was already waiting there, looked up and down Bai Chen a few times, then laughed:
　　 "It seems that I've been doing pretty well recently. I used to be a mud girl."
　　 Bai Chen instinctively closed his eyes:
　　 "A team took me in."
　　 Tian Erhe nodded thoughtfully:
"Not bad."
　　 He didn't continue this topic, and asked casually:
　　 "Where is your robot? Call it 35."
　　 Bai Chen's eyes drooped slightly and said after a second:
"broken."
　　 Tian Erhe fell silent for a moment.
　　 After a few seconds, he took a breath and asked as if he hadn’t communicated anything just now:
　　 "What are you going to exchange?"
　　 "Some car parts..." Bai Chen replied as usual.
　　 "Stop! Don't tell me exactly what it is, I don't understand it, I will take you to have a look and pick one." Tian Erhe interrupted Bai Chen's words with a smile.
　　 He turned around and led Bai Chen to the depths of the town.
　　 This town is not big, it is completely different from the town in the old world concept.
　　 Bai Chen glanced at it, and the first thing he saw were three three-story buildings in the distance. The buildings were not high, but very long, with many rooms separated from each floor.
　　 These three houses are not parallel, but the upside-down, oblique "Pin" character.
As far as Bai Chen knows, those who live here, have private or floor toilets, are members of the town guard and their families. At the same time, people with important skills can also be assigned to rooms, such as those who know how to repair firearms. For example, those who have mastered old world agricultural technology.
　　 On both sides of the word "品", there are two large public toilets, one vertical and one horizontal; in front of the word "品" there is a small square made of cement, and outside the small square are three small squares with rammed earth side by side.
There is a row of bungalows on the left and right sides of the square. They are not far from the wall. They belong to the original townspeople of Shuiwei Town. With the population base of Shuiwei Town, most of the townspeople’s houses have members of the town guard, otherwise they are not enough to maintain the town guard.
　　 Above the four squares, there are innumerable, chaotically built houses towering there, including mud houses, brick houses, and tents.
　　 These buildings come from the wilderness wanderers absorbed by Shuiwei Town over the years, or the original members who violated the law.
　　 At this time, the sun is still in the sky. In the early evening, some of the residents of Shuiwei Town are still working in the fields behind the town, and some of them are out hunting in small groups. Only a few people stay in the town.
　　 They walked out of the densely packed houses and cast their gazes from behind the panes of glass. What they have in common is: their faces are not very clean, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com's hair is dry and greasy, the clothes are not complete, and may not fit the body shape, but the eyes are more energetic than the wilderness wanderers that Bai Chen encountered in other places.
　　 "Mayor, you, how are you doing these days?" Bai Chen didn't care about other people's gaze, opened his mouth, and asked not too skillfully.
　　 Tian Erhe laughed at himself:
　　 "It's okay, but I'm getting more and more afraid of the cold. You see, winter hasn't arrived yet, so I have to wear so much. Oh, I don't know if I can survive this winter."
　　 "Sure." Bai Chen followed Tianerhe and walked along the road between the chaotic houses to the three-shaped building.
　　 She answered very confidently, but her tone was a bit erratic.
"Don't comfort me." Tian Erhe touched the chin of the remaining white scum, "I am seventy-seven! How many people who have experienced the destruction of the old world can live to this age? Besides, I My children are no longer there. Even if I wait a few years and find a new world, it doesn’t make much sense to me. Hey, if Nan Nan is still alive, he should be about the same age as you..."
　　 "...At least one has to look at the new world." Bai Chen was silent for a while.
Out of the corner of her eye, she swept across the chaotically built houses around her, and saw plastic bottles, glass bottles, old cardboard, buttons, rags, parts from unknown sources, long or short cables piled up at their doors and windows. , Metal bottle caps, handles with incomplete buttons, cracked mirror boxes, bullet shells, sights, rusty spectacle frames, etc., are like garbage dumps and recycling bins.
　　 Tian Erhe "heh" sighed:
　　 "The new world...who knows where...
　　 "Young people can believe, at least they have hope. Old guys like us, forget it."
