The Walking Dead TWD

Chapter 158 Banquet

Long San didn't know why Zhou Nan ordered him to be locked up. It was precisely because he didn't know that Boss Li and the others were a little confused.

They simply couldn't understand what Zhou Nan wanted to do.

Boss Li's men were filled with righteous indignation. Not knowing the truth, they clamored to teach the people in the prison a lesson.

In their opinion, Zhou Nan kidnapped Long San and might even want to use Long San to get benefits from them.

Zhang Rang was a little troubled by the current situation. He never expected that Zhou Nan would actually recruit Woodbury within a day. This was even more exaggerated than magic!

Originally, he always wanted to cooperate with Woodbury, which had more people, but now the prison has turned around and become the largest force in the vicinity, which makes him a little at a loss.

The best outcome at the moment is to hide the bad things he has done and never let anyone find out. At the same time, he must vigorously promote the cooperation between the base and Zhou Nan.

He has no stance. He will choose whichever side is more worthy of investment. After all, he comes from a merchant family and always puts profit first.

When Boss Li heard everyone suggesting to bring armed forces to the prison to demand an explanation, he quickly waved his hand to interrupt their conversation.

"What nonsense! America's National Research Organization (NRO) launched two secret satellites, NROL-41 and NROL-32, and also launched the GPS-2F navigation satellite before the disaster."

"In this situation, you still dare to make a big noise. You might just get into trouble with the prison, and our every move will be under surveillance."

Boss Li used this to threaten them every day, which made Zhang Rang a little dissatisfied.

He showed a disdainful expression. Now that America could hardly protect itself, how could it have the energy to send troops to clean up after them?

It is because of such wrong decisions that they can only act like rats, doing some shady things, and now they can't even eat.

Boss Li looked at everyone's expressions and understood what they were thinking. "Do you really think they can't do anything to us?"

"If they can't send people to clean up, they can just attack from a distance. Their government is a complete mad dog right now."

"If your antics lead them to discover that there's a secret base here and that you keep going to Port Atlanta to receive arms, guess what will happen?"

A drop of sweat suddenly broke out on Zhang Rang's forehead. He then stood up and said, "I support Boss Li's decision. Everyone, calm down first. It's not too late to figure out the reasons before making any plans."

Zhang Rang had already guessed what the consequences would be.

It's nothing more than dropping a nuclear bomb here.

Although it is not realistic to throw these things into one's own territory, if you think about it carefully, a large area of ​​land here has long been out of control and one cannot use it, so throwing one or two is actually not a big problem.

Moreover, they have large reserves of these weapons of mass destruction, which were originally used to deter and threaten other countries. Now, all countries in the world are struggling to protect themselves. Who can they threaten with nuclear bombs?

It’s better to throw two and listen to the sound!

Besides, with the current changes, Zhang Rang is also inclined to cooperate with Zhou Nan. After all, Zhou Nan now has more than 500 people under his command, and is considered the number one force in this area, which has crossed Zhang Rang's cooperation threshold.

Boss Li nodded to Zhang Rang. He was very satisfied with Zhang Rang's support.

But the feeling of helplessness came over him. Boss Li looked at the team in front of him and felt that it was becoming increasingly difficult to lead them.

Some people here still have trust in their eyes, while some people's eyes are already full of suspicion.

But no matter what the situation is now, what needs to be done still needs to be done, collecting information, and food shortage are still the number one problems they need to solve.

Boss Li said to everyone, "In that case, I'll take some time to meet Zhou Nan in person. I think there must be a misunderstanding here."

After hearing what Boss Li said, Zhang Rang's eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something...

prison

When the banquet time came, the prison grounds were already packed with people. Even the cold weather could not dampen everyone's enthusiasm.

Several young men were constantly unloading wine from a large truck, and people below were lining up to receive it.

The sound of a motorcycle was heard, and the prison gate was opened, drawing everyone's attention.

It turned out that Daryl was back.

But when they see the dead deer in Daryl's back seat, the situation gets completely out of control.

"Oh my god, Daryl actually hunted a deer?"

Although Daryl just nodded calmly at the crowd, he was not as calm as he appeared in his heart. This was his biggest gain in recent times!

Hearing everyone talking about it, he felt very happy. After all, being recognized by others is a very enjoyable thing.

He enjoyed it even more when he saw Carol's admiring eyes.

Daryl dropped the deer "indifferently" and said, "I heard you were having a party. This is the gift I brought you."

After saying that, he went to the truck and got a bottle of red wine in the admiring eyes of everyone.

This red wine is a high-end product, but Daryl thinks it is a drink for women. Real men should drink some illegally brewed spirits.

Everyone slowly ended the discussion, and then they chose a relatively flat open space, cleared an area, and surrounded it with stones to form a simple fire pit.

Dry branches and leaves were collected and piled into a small hill. After being lit, the flames jumped and emitted a warm glow.

The deer had also been carefully processed at this time. Its fur was stripped off, its internal organs were cleaned, and its meat was cut into large pieces and skewered together with a sharp steel bar on its head.

The meat is only roughly cured with salt and wine to preserve the flavor of the game to the greatest extent possible.

Then the sausages that Zoe brought back and the venison that Daryl brought back were grilled on the fire.

As the flames stabilized, they took turns tending them, constantly turning the meat to ensure it cooked evenly on all sides.

The fat dripped into the fire, and the flames jumped, emitting a richer aroma. The meat pieces gradually turned golden under the roasting flames, and a crispy crust formed on the surface.

Everyone picked up the red wine and drank from the bottle, and those who were more particular drank from water glasses. There was laughter and joy everywhere.

Sisters Amy and Andrea also returned, and the two of them left the prison before Zoe returned with a bunch of sausages.

They were afraid that the food in the prison would not be enough for everyone to eat, so they hurried to go fishing.

Their father is an experienced fisherman, and they have learned most of the fishing skills long ago, so they can catch fish easily.

In Atlanta in winter, the daytime high temperature often exceeds 18°C, and although the low temperature occasionally drops, it generally does not fall below -5°C. This is why Tonio did not freeze to death on the rooftop.

Although the river was not frozen, Amy's little hands were still red from the cold, and it seemed that she had suffered a little.

But both of their faces were filled with smiles.

They carried the box of fish together and asked everyone they met, "Hey, how did you know we caught a whole box of fish?"

At first, everyone looked at them in shock and envy, and Amy and Andrea also enjoyed the process.

But everyone gradually realized that something was wrong.

Well, these two people didn't let go of the fish box, and went wherever there were crowds of people. They walked around the group of people seven or eight times, and they didn't feel tired at all...
