The hydroelectric power plant is behind the dam and the left half of the dam being the spillway section – where the water spills out of the gates. Below the high dam on the right is the control station of the hydropower plant, which can only be accessed through the access road.
There is a neatly built road along the steep mountain to the left and right of the power plant along the steep mountain, but they’re all roads going to other places along the reservoir. If one wants to enter the hydropower plant, there is only one way to go.
But that only road is now set up with a nearly three meters high power grid. Many zombies tried to cross the grid one after another, but the electric current started to appear on their bodies.
Although they didn’t feel any pain while screaming towards the back of the grid, that is the hydropower station, they slowly burned to the point of incapacitation.
Some zombies rolled down the lower reaches of the reservoir due to crowding and were washed away by the rolling river.
All in all, even if no one is watching, no zombie can get past this layer of protection.
Hao Jian retracted the telescope and gave it to Lian Ru Ning next to her. Xin Ting impatiently asked, “Well, did you see anyone?”
“Yes, there are four people wearing military uniforms outside, armed with guns. The situation inside the factory isn’t clear, whether it’s the road into the plant or the two roads along the reservoir, they’re all blocked. The place is surrounded by zombies is the only entrance.”
Hao Jian glanced at the power grid in front and felt that the guards were very cautious. They also blocked the two highways along the reservoir to prevent zombies and people with ulterior motives.
“Then, how do we get in?”
Hao Jian touched his chin, “The role of the reservoir is not only to generate electricity but also farming and livestock. If there is river farming, it means that there are other ways to get in. However, we may need to detour and the guards may also have set up a power grid over there.”
Lian Ru Ning also confirmed the situation at the power station, “We should be cautious based on the pretense that the other party is a ‘Wugui’ person. if the other party is really a soldier, then we don’t have to be so sneaky. The place where the power grid is set should have cameras to monitor the situation around. We can go over and take a look.”
Hao Jian looked at her with a smile, making the temperature of her face suddenly rise.
“You—“
“Little sister is right!” Hao Jian took Lian Ru Ning’s hand, “So, let’s go back to Peng Mao and the others now! It’s getting dark too.”
Hao Jian’s hands now had some calluses and were not as soft as it was then, yet Lian Ru Ning still remembered the strength and the softness they felt when they first held hands.
If it wasn’t for Xin Ting on the side, she really wanted to ask Hao Jian why she liked holding her hand so much now. Although she doesn’t hate being held by her hand, she wants to know what kind of mood Hao Jian is in to hold her hand.
Xin Ting looked back and found that these two were leaving, so she hurriedly followed. She accidentally caught a glimpse at Hao Jian holding Lian Ru Ning’s hand and was envious – if only she had someone who cared about her besides her.
Thinking about this, she asked, “Hao Jian, how can we be sure that the other party is really the military?”
Hao Jian instead winked at Lian Ru Ning, “Little Junior Sister, what do you think?”
“. . .” Lian Ru Ning secretly gritted her teeth, does Hao Jian not know that if she winks so much, people who didn’t know would think that she’s flirting!
“Because the protection here is very different from the roadblocks we saw on the road. To put it bluntly, amateurs setting up roadblocks will only block with piles of stuff, while professionals use the most efficient way to ensure that nothing is wasted.” Lian Ru Ning explained.
Xin Ting suddenly realized that the military’s ability is large, can use the fastest speed to build good surrounding protection. However, the ‘Wugui’ soldiers could only rely on the limited resources in front of them to pile up the blockage.
Thinking about this, she was relieved.
Suddenly, the would beneath her feet became loose, and she fell on the ground without paying attention. The loose mud, sharp stones, and various branches made her bare and exposed arms scratched and bruised, and the pain instantly swept throughout her body, but she didn’t cry out of pain.
“What’s wrong?” Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning stopped.
“I accidentally fell.” Xin Ting endured the pain and got up from the ground. Her pants and arms were covered with mud and fine sand. Because the mountain soil was soft after the rain, she fell so hard that her appearance looked very messy.
Lian Ru Ning broke away from Hao Jian’s hand and went to support her. Hao Jian felt that her palm was empty and sighed secretly. She also raised Xin Ting’s arm and took a look, saying, “It’s not safe here anymore after dark. We will go down the mountain and take a closer look at your injury!”
Xin Ting nodded and Lian Ru Ning said, “Let’s go, I’ll hold you, you be careful.”
When Xin Ting heard this, her nose became sore and her eyes soon became moist. However, she can’t cry, if she did, she might annoy Hao Jian and the others. So she gritted her teeth and silently shed her tears while going down the mountain.
Hao Jian took out her flashlight and lit the way in front of them, while Xin Ting asked Lian Ru Ning quietly from behind, “Is Hao Jian angry?”
Lian Ry Ning felt that Xin Ting’s thoughts were a little weird. After an ordinary person is injured, would the first thing they think of is whether the others would be angry?
“No, why would she be angry?” Lian Ru Ning glanced at Hao Jian’s back then looked back at Xin Ting, but there was a strange feeling in her heart.
“Does she think I’m a burden? I even fell down the mountain, she must think I’m clumsy. . .”
Because they were worried that the hydropower plant would also be occupied by ‘Wugui’ people when they came over, they parked the car in a hidden place at the foot of the mountain. Hao Jian and the others went to the mountain for reconnaissance, while Peng Mao and Shi Gong Dui stayed to look after the supplies in the car.
Originally, Xin Ting was also supposed to be left behind, but she desperately wanted to keep up with everyone, so she insisted on following Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning up the mountain.
A string inside Lian Ru Ning’s mind seemed to break and she finally figured out why Xin Ting’s thoughts were so peculiar – she cared about what Hao Jian thinks of her!
The answer as to why she cares about what Hao Jian thinks about her is obvious.
“She’s not a narrow-minded person. She won’t think you’re dragging us down just because you fell and she won’t think you’re clumsy.” Lian Ru Ning smiled faintly. No matter what Xin Ting is thinking, she felt that Hao Jian isn’t the kind of person Xin Ting had imagined. Perhaps for Hao Jian, she wouldn’t even take this matter to heart.
Lian Ru Ning suddenly felt a little lost. She seemed to understand Hao Jian, but she really doesn’t know anything. And for a moment, she had a feeling of hating herself for knowing Hao Jian. If she didn’t understand Hao Jian, then she might be able to ask Hao Jian’s thoughts instead of thinking about it like this now.

Peng Mao saw the light and walked over. Hao Jian pointed to the back, “Xin Ting fell when coming down, you first take her to clean the wound and then see if there is medicine in the trunk.”
“It’s okay, I’m fine. . . ” Xin Ting said hurriedly.
Peng Mao saw that her clothes were dirty and her eyes were red as if she had been crying. So, he grabbed her arm and led her walking towards the car, “All right, don’t say so much. Come and let me treat the wound.”
Hearing their conversation, Shi Gong Dui had already gone to the trunk to find out if there were any medicines. He said, “I told you to let us two big men go on it, you just had to be brave. There are many mountain snakes, insects, rats, and ants on the mountain. Even if you didn’t fall, being bitten is also a very dangerous thing. . . .”
Seeing Xin Ting’s flustered face, Peng Mao quickly said, “You can shut up. With your body shape and physical abilities, climbing up the mountain may only lead to you rolling down!”
Seeing that these two people are going to be upset again, Hao Jian ignored it but said, “This is probably the military. I’ll go over and see if there are any cameras and fin a way to contact them so that they can allow us to enter.”
Lian Ru Ning looked at Peng Mao and Xin Ting who were busy over there and then glanced at Hao Jian and rarely didn’t go with her.
Hao Jian walked two steps before noticing that something seemed wrong. She looked back at Lian Ru Ning, “Thank you, junior sister. Please take care of this place, I’ll be back soon.”
“. . . . hmmm.”
It wasn’t until Hao Jian’s figure disappeared from Lian Ru Ning’s line of sight that she withdrew her gaze. She returned to the car and took the walkie-talkie from Shi Gong Dui, chose a location with a wide view, and took the binoculars to scout carefully.
She knew that this action seemed that she was running away from something, but she also knew that the reason Xin Ting followed them was not only to prove her ability but also because she was too close to Hao Jian, making Xin Ting feel excluded and wanted to blend with them.
If she hadn’t discovered her own feelings, she might have not cared or considered this. However, not that Xin Ting is their companion, she can’t help but consider her companion’s feelings, so much so that it puts her in a dilemma.
A sudden burst of intense gunfire came from the direction of the hydropower station. Hao Jian trotted back, and when she passed by Lian Ru Ning’s side, she took her hand back to the car, “Let’s go!”
“What happened?” Everyone who heard the gunshots immediately asked.
“The military agreed to let us in, so they cleaned up the zombies that entered the access road. We need to get there before new walkers gather around and go over.”
Time was running out, so they stopped talking and got in the car one after another.
Hao Jian glanced at Xin Ting through the rearview mirror and asked, “Have your wounds been treated?”
“Yes. The injury is not serious. I cleaned the wound and applied for some medicine. It’s not a big problem.”
Hao Jian nodded, “But later on, after going in, you may have to be isolated and be observed for a while again.”
“. . .” Lian Ru Ning and Peng Mao both felt that Xin Ting was unlucky to be injured every time they went to a place where there was military personnel.
Shi Gong Dui didn’t care about these things and asked, “When we go in and they find my equipment, how do I explain?”
“Just tell them the truth and be honest. They will never do anything to you but they will certainly monitor you.” Hao Jian said.
“Are you going to be monitored too?” Peng Mao asked.
“Among every one of us, which of us doesn’t need to be monitored?”
Peng Mao was silent. First of all, if they came here, the soldiers would be suspicious of their identities. And after what happened at the airport refugee, the guards would be the most vigilant at this time. Although they agreed to let them in, they may not be friendly to them.
But among them, the one who is more likely to be monitored is Shi Gong Dui.
“Anyway, we aren’t bad people, what is there to be afraid of? Of course, it’s impossible to say whether the military will arrest you for eavesdropping on state secrets.” Peng Mao looked at Shi Gong Dui.
“Good students, student Lian, student Xin, I haven’t done anything wrong to you along the way and also helped you a lot. You can’t demolish the bridge after crossing the river!” Shi Gong Dui hurriedly said.
“I believe the military isn’t unreasonable people. On the contrary, you might still be the talent they need, so instead of worrying blindly, you should think about how you can make them believe that you’re trustworthy.”
Hao Jian’s words successfully calmed both Shi Gong Dui and Peng Mao down.
Soon, the car came to the protected entrance through the access road to the hydropower plant. Four soldiers stood at the gate, and when they saw the car slowly approaching, they made a defensive stance.
Hao Jian parked the car not far away then got out. A beam of light hit her face and she narrowed her eyes slightly before saying, “I am the person who greeted you through the camera just now.”
The beam of light moved away and fell on the four people who came down from behind.
“Come in first.”
Hao Jian and the others walked over on foot and two soldiers went over to check their vehicle and drove it in.
As the protective door completely closed, the four soldiers focused on Hao Jian and the others.
