doomsday survival

Chapter 197
Wang Lie looked at the seven people of Shi Jian with a gloomy face. If it weren't for the torches to illuminate them, he might not have seen them. These seven people were covered in darkness, and it was really difficult to distinguish them in the dark.

Seeing the embarrassment of Shi Jian and others, Wang Lie froze in his heart. He didn't bother to blame Zuo Qian and the other three for acting without authorization. Instead, he asked anxiously, "What's going on? Are you being chased by zombies? how far?"

Shi Jian was stunned by Wang Lie's series of questions, and he blinked for a long time before he could react.He smiled wryly and asked, "Why does Brother Wang think we are being chased by zombies?"

"It's useless to say less, hurry up and tell me how far the zombies are, is it too late to organize defenses?" Wang Lie asked anxiously.

"There are no zombies chasing you." Shi Jian shrugged and said.

"Then why are you in such a mess?" Wang Lie asked incredulously.

Shi Jian looked up and down at several people before he understood the reason.He smiled and said, "Brother Wang, what we have on us is coal ash, we got it from moving coal."

Only now did Wang Lie realize that he had made an oolong, and felt a little embarrassed.

In fact, this cannot be blamed on Wang Lie. They have not used coal for heating for many years. Coal only exists in legends.Wang Lie only knew that it was a kind of black stone that could be burned. As for what it looked like, he had never seen it before.

Wang Lie coughed, cleared his throat, and said, "Brother Shi, isn't it a little bad for you to do this? We don't send people, so you just drag them in. Isn't that a little too much?"

Shi Jian knew that Wang Lie would ask this question a long time ago, and he had already thought of a countermeasure in his heart. He wanted to explain it, and then promised Wang Lie some benefits.

Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Zhang Jian said first from the side: "King Ji, we went voluntarily, Chief Shi didn't ask us to go."

Wang Lie's expression suddenly changed. He glared at Zhang Jian and said, "Zhang Jian, what are you talking about? Don't tell me you forgot the Ministry's regulations, and you will be expelled if you act without authorization!"

Zhang Jian said indifferently: "If both you and the elders think that what I did is wrong, just expel me."

"You—" Wang Lie was so angry that he pointed at Zhang Jian, speechless.

It suddenly occurred to him that expelling the tribe was a very serious punishment in the past, but now that the Xing'an tribe is here, expulsion is just a joke.

Once Zhang Jian is expelled, he can definitely join the Xing'an tribe. Anyway, he only has one son, and he has no close relatives. His fiancée is also from the Xing'an tribe.

"Okay, Brother Wang, calm down, I still did something wrong, and I will properly compensate your department." Shi Jian hurriedly smoothed things over.

Wang Lie snorted, turned and left angrily without saying anything.

Shi Jian looked at Wang Lieyuan's back, sighed secretly, and then said to Zhang Jian: "Zhang Jian, what you say is too..."

Zhang Jian said indifferently: "It doesn't matter, just like what you said, Chief Shi, this tribe really has no future for development. It's been enough."

"Actually, what I said may not be entirely correct. Everyone has their own way of survival in the last days. Our method may not be suitable for the Changbai tribe. After all, you have too many people." Shi Jian said seriously.

"Forget it, don't think about it," Zhang Jian shook his head and said to Shi Jian, "Boss Shi, if I am really expelled, then I hope you can take me in."

Shi Jian nodded and said: "That's for sure. No matter what, you did this because of our tribe. However, I hope you can still apologize to your King Ji. He is also for the tribe. Think about it."

"Yes." Zhang Jian nodded in agreement.

"Brother Zhang, why are you here?" Yi Hengge sighed from the side.

"Forget it, forget it, don't talk about Brother Zhang," Zuo Qian pulled Yi Hengge, and said, "I still think Brother Zhang is not annoying enough."

Zhang Jian smiled, and said: "It's okay, I've thought about it a long time ago, if it doesn't work, I'll leave here with Panpan."

"It won't be like that," Shi Jian comforted, "Okay, everyone go back and rest, I'm exhausted today, thank you everyone."

Several people separated at this point and went home separately.

As soon as Shi Jian and the others entered their residence, they saw Ava coming out to welcome them, and whispered to them: "There are a lot of people here, waiting for you. Elder Feng and sister Xia Qing are accompanying them."

Shi Jian nodded and said: "Ava, you guys go to rest first, I'll go meet them, at worst, we'll just leave and treat it as a waste of work these days." After finishing speaking, he went directly into the reception room.

In the reception room, all the members of the Changbai Tribal Presbyterian Church had arrived, and Wang Lie was also sitting there with a face full of anger.Feng Kuang closed his eyes slightly, leaned on the back of the chair, wondering if he fell asleep.Xia Qing was sitting there, talking with them.

As soon as he saw Shi Jian coming in, Wang Lie sneered and said, "Just now I said you didn't believe me, now ask us, Chief Shi, if he is ready to accept our people?"

Shi Jian frowned when he heard Wang Lie's barbed words. When he saw Shi Jian coming in, Wang Lie sneered and said, "Just now I said you didn't believe me, now ask us, Chief Shi, if we are all ready to accept One of our people?" He frowned, but still suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and said to Wang Lie: "Brother Wang, what are you talking about, how could I do such a thing."

"No?" Wang Lie asked back.

At this moment, Xia Qing stood up, asked Shi Jian to sit on her seat, and then sat behind Shi Jian himself, and said softly: "Brother Wang is thinking too much. Although we are few people, we will not do such a thing." Yes."

"Then I will expel Zhang Jian? Do all the elders here agree?" Wang Lie asked for opinions directly.

Before the elders of the Changbai Tribe expressed their views, Shi Jian said, "Of course we won't accept people from the Changbai Tribe, but if they weren't from the Changbai Tribe, we would have a clear conscience. Lord Ji, don't you think so? "Because he was very dissatisfied with Wang Lie's actions, he changed his tune and called him King Ji directly.

"You!" Wang Lie slapped the table, stood up, and said angrily, "Shi Jian, are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?"

Shi Jian lit a cigarette slowly, spit out lightly, and then said slowly: "Where did King Ji say this? I asked your ministry for help, but if you don't allow me, I'll go by myself. They The three are going to be expelled because they gave us some help in private, should I just watch it?"

"Shi Jian, don't forget that you are now in our Changbai tribe!" Wang Lie shouted loudly.

"So what? I came here because I saved the three of you. I live here, and I have given your Ministry enough accommodation expenses. If Lord Ji and the elders don't welcome us, we will leave It's gone." Shi Jian was not to be outdone, and confronted each other.

Seeing that something was wrong with the situation, Xia Qianhe stopped sitting on the sidelines and persuaded: "Okay, okay, don't quarrel, it hurts feelings for no reason."

Wang Lie snorted and stopped talking.

Shi Jian still smoked leisurely, as if nothing happened.

Seeing that the two of them stopped arguing, Xia Qianhe said, "Brother Feng, it seems that this is not the same thing, should we have a good discussion."

Feng Kuang only opened his sleepy eyes at this time, as if he didn't know anything, he said to Xia Qianhe: "Did Brother Xia call me just now?"

The corner of Xia Qianhe's mouth twitched, and he said, "Yes, old brother, what do you think we should do with this matter?"

"Uh," Feng Kuang blinked and asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's because three of us acted on our own initiative to help Shi Jian transport coal." Xia Qianhe said with a frown.

"Oh, do you want to deal with the three of them, or Shi Jian?" Feng Kuang sat up straight and asked.

Xia Qianhe laughed dryly, and said: "What the old brother said, how dare we deal with Chief Shi Jianshi, of course we have to deal with the three of them."

Feng Kuang's body softened again, and he said lazily, "That's your internal matter, we can't interfere."

"But if we want to expel them, will you accept them?" Xia Qianhe asked forcefully.

After Feng Kuang listened to it, he kept shaking his head, Xia Qianhe was overjoyed, thinking that he had given up.Unexpectedly, Feng Kuang said slowly: "It's your business to expel or not, we don't care. Accepting or not accepting is our business, and you don't care. Do you think this is okay?"

Xia Qianhe was so angry at Feng Kuang's words that he almost spat out old blood. He closed his eyes, took two deep breaths, and then said: "Brother Feng, if this is the case, then our punishment will be one Is it a joke?"

Feng Kuang laughed loudly, and said, "Brother Xia, we Ming people don't speak in secret, what do you really want, just say it directly, why bother to make such a big circle?"

Xia Qianhe pondered for a while, and said: "Brother, look at our current state. There is nothing wrong with it, but these problems have appeared. If it goes on for a long time, it will have a great impact on our relationship."

Feng Kuang and Shi Jian looked at each other, then nodded, motioning for Shi Jian to speak.

Shi Jian asked in a deep voice: "Elder Xia, can I take your words as an order to evict guests?"

Xia Qianhe shook his head with a smile, and said: "That's what I said, it's too late to welcome you, how can I drive you away?"

"Then I really don't understand what Elder Xia means, so I hope you can explain it." Shi Jian asked.

Xia Qianhe smiled and said: "We have an immature idea, don't know if we should talk about it or not?"

Shi Jian nodded and said, "Grand Elder, please speak, we will listen with all our ears."
