Chapter 69
Chapter 67
On this issue, Shi Gongzui is optimistic: “You think, after the zombie outbreak, many people will definitely want to leave the first- and second-tier cities. Then, railways, roads and other transportation methods are already under greater pressure than the Spring Festival. It has become a sweet pastry. There are many cruise ships and yachts in those big cities to these less populated cities. As long as you look along the riverside, you can always find a lot of suitable boats.”
When they returned to the river, they didn’t want to imagine anything, so I won’t mention it for the time being.
No one made dinner, because basically all the food that can be cooked has been eaten, although there is still a little, but it is very troublesome to cook it specially, so they can only drink eight-treasure porridge, jellyfish, cold dishes and so on.
The jellyfish and cold dishes are actually in bags. You can eat them directly after you open the seasoning bag and stir them. Although the single amount can’t fill your stomach, you can eat a few portions and you will always be full.
What’s more, they may return to Xiangshi tomorrow. Before ensuring safety, food is not the most important thing. Otherwise, I don’t know if I will eat it!
After Shi Gongyu confirmed all the materials he found, he took out his own snacks and shared with everyone: “Although I have known each other for only three days, this trip has no one of you. , I can’t come here either—”
Before he finished speaking, Peng Mao quickly covered his mouth: “Shut up, don’t stand up fg!”
Shi Gongdui curled his lips, saying that it was indeed too early.
Hao Jian, who wasn’t too interested in Shi Gongdui’s snacks, stood up and said, “I’m going to inspect outside.”
Xin Ting came back with the rice cutter, and said with a smile: “I added gasoline to it and found that this works, Hao Jian, take it and go around!”
Shi Gong Dui said: “Sister, this is what I found out for you to use!”
Xin Ting was startled, and then a little embarrassed: “I, I just think about the night, it’s too dangerous outside, no matter who is on duty, it’s best to use this…”
“You did it right!” Hao Jian nodded, and Lian Ru Ning also stepped forward to praise Xin Ting. Peng Mao naturally stood on Xin Ting’s side. Shi Gongdui could only spread his hands when he saw this.
The sky soon darkened, perhaps because it was too close to the first- and second-tier cities. The sound of insects that could be heard in Xinghua City in the past has disappeared, and there is no wind. The real silence is all.
At the same time, no one dared to really sleep peacefully, because there was a trace of danger in the air, so they had to be more vigilant and prepared to beware of the zombies that appeared at any time.
The performance of the rice cutter at night is surprising. I thought that those gears are only effective for plants like straw, but when it hits the neck of a zombie, it reminds me of a chainsaw…this thing is inferior to a chainsaw. How many.
And this night, everyone slept for no more than three hours, because zombies appeared one after another during the period, in order to prevent them from gathering in groups, they always need to go out to clean up. In such a night, there were already a lot of zombies outside the factory, and they were also exhausted.
Among them, Hao Jian wiped out seven or eight zombies in the first half of the night, and the number of zombies wiped out after midnight reached 21. It can be seen that the number of zombies that surrounded them in the second half of the night had doubled.
So after four o’clock, everyone had to pack their things in advance and get ready to go on the road.
Because the street lights have no power supply, the entire mountain road is pitch black. Only after four o’clock, the sky gradually fades from the faint blue, they can combine the lights to distinguish the surrounding situation.
If it is in the middle of the lunar calendar, when the moon is big and bright, and there is moonlight bathing and illuminating the road at night, they don’t mind driving at night. It’s a pity that it is August 7th, the 25th of June in the lunar calendar, and the moon is almost invisible.
Peng Mao drove off first. When Hao Jian was about to drive, Lian Runing suddenly took her hand.
Feeling a tremor on the back of his hand, Hao Jian turned around and looked at Lian Runing quietly.
Last night, Lian Ru Ning spoke very little, and as the number of zombies appeared more and more frequently, her mood became very heavy.
Hao Jian thought she was anxious, so he gave her a hug: “There are a large number of guards in Xiangshi, so although there are many zombies, relatively speaking, there are many people who can provide us with information and guidance. Don’t worry. .”
Lian Ru-ning is indeed a little anxious, but she is not worried about whether they can pass through Xiangshi to reach Southern City.
She said: “I am selfish, because you have wisdom and strength, so I pretend to make myself believe that you intend to go to Southern City, so that we can walk together, I don’t have to endure loneliness and loneliness. But the closer I get to the fragrance. The more I am afraid of the city, I can no longer bear that my selfishness will put you in deep trouble!”
Before Lian Ru Ning could not imagine how dangerous the first- and second-tier cities would be. After all, what she had seen and experienced were cities with relatively small resident populations such as Kaishi, Jiangshi, and Xinghua. Many times they walked. The road is even a remote area, a real desperate city, she hasn’t seen it yet.
But after arriving here, as the frequency of zombies appeared more and more, she also deeply realized that even if it was just a remote suburb, the risk factor would be above 8 at any time.
So she can’t let herself be so selfish anymore. For the sake of her family who don’t know the life or death, she’s nothing more than to hurt Hao Jian, she can’t bear it.
Yes, because I care about Hao Jian in my heart, I hope to always see her such a brilliant face, wise eyes, and lips that can say the most beautiful love words in the world…
Every detail of getting along with Hao Jian was enlarged by her, and then she became more certain in the contradiction between her guilt and love-she hoped Hao Jian would survive.
“I hope that what I have to bear will be borne by myself. Life is so precious, you are only 23 years old, you still have decades of life to go, you have more future, so I can’t let you have 90% The chance of losing is the possibility of finding the unknown my family’s survivor—”
Hao Jian held her face and kissed her suddenly, blocking all her words in her throat.
This kiss is as fierce as a storm, and like the tranquility after a calm storm, as if experiencing a violent storm in the sea, and as if enjoying the warm sun on the beach, it makes the adrenaline soar, and it makes people calm down in anxiety…
“Actually, I lied to you about one thing… I was embarrassed by your confession to me, because before that, I actually knew that I like Lian Ru Ning and my little sister. I also know you. Like me, you always look at me secretly, maybe wondering why there is such a beautiful girl, or maybe worry about what to do if you like me…”
Lian Ru Ning’s eyes widened, Hao Jian confessed to her, and Hao Jian shamelessly flattered herself.
“Perhaps when I took the initiative to confess, I don’t have to worry about you rejecting me. But I don’t want us to be our parents, nor Chen Jin and Huang Sheng. Because I feel that even though we have gone through many difficulties, I found your family, but we may still have the day of separation, and then we will not be able to contact each other, and we don’t know the life and death of each other.”
Lian Ru Ning’s eyes were moist, she knew, but she hadn’t thought about the possibility of their separation in the future, and she couldn’t understand the torment of Chen Zhen and Huang Sheng.
Now she wanted to understand, knowing why she didn’t want to think about it because of her selfishness. She decided to face her selfishness courageously, so she made up her mind, as if Chen Yan handed over the ring to them, hoping that they would hand it over to Huang Sheng. Regardless of whether Huang Sheng was alive or dead, it was over for Chen Jin. .
“Then why did you respond to me again?” Lian Ru Ning asked.
Hao Jian’s thumb swept across Lian Runing’s eyelids and said, “What is the little sister crying for? I responded to you because I wanted to… go to his Hao Kan and Chen Xiuzhu, and to his Chen Jin and Huang. Sheng, I’m not one of them, and I don’t want to be separated from Junior Sister, and I won’t be separated from Junior Sister.”
Lian Ru Ning’s eyes whispered in tears, but still glared at her: “Why do you call your parents by their names?!”
Hao Jian chuckles: “I promise, I will do everything possible to live, and even if I can’t, I will die with you.”
Lian Ru Ning quickly covered her mouth: “Quickly spit, no crow’s mouth!”
Hao Jian pointed to her hand and motioned to her that she was holding it. Why did she spit? Lian Ru Ning had to let go, but instead of spitting, Hao Jian caught her lips and kissed several times.
Shi Gongdi took the walkie-talkie and asked, “Good classmates, why haven’t you seen you catching up?”
“It was convenient to go just now. Come now.” Hao Jian replied.
“Is it the ‘convenient’ I think?”
“Whatever you think.”
Hao Jian got on the motorcycle and stretched out his hand towards Lian Ru Ning: “Let’s go, Junior Sister, you are not selfish, you are just…too gentle.”
Lian Runing put her hand up, then sat behind Hao Jian, and hugged her waist. As soon as she was about to say something, she heard Hao Jian exhort her again: “Hold tight, Junior Sister.”
As soon as I applied a little bit of strength, the motorcycle started and then jumped out.
____
The sun rose slowly behind them, and the sky turned out a touch of white fish, and the sky showed a gradual color from white to blue, but the direction of Hao Jian and the others was like an entrance to the abyss that would swallow everything, and they Is gradually stepping into the dark abyss.
____
At more than seven o’clock in the morning, the sun had already hit every corner of the town. There are already a lot of people doing farm work on the farmland by the river, and in the fish farms on the river bank with nets, there are also small boats casting nets to fish, and then selling the caught fish to driving trucks. People who collect fish.
The villagers squatted on the side of the road holding vegetables while hawking while chatting with others. The children were around to help collect money, or they were playing in groups.
The people who bought the vegetables returned home and started boiling the porridge. They washed the vegetables they bought and put them in the pot and blanched them. Then they picked them up and poured some soy sauce. Perhaps some people bought fish, fry these two palm-sized fish in a frying pan until golden on both sides, and then add seasonings.
After preparing the dishes, I shouted my voice and called the family back for breakfast…
Before the end, this is just the most common sight in a town, but all of this has been annihilated by the terrifying zombie virus invasion.
Hao Jian and the others along the river bank saw nothing but unpopular zombies, broken wooden doors, messy fish farms, and even saw many fish floating on the surface of the river, and then exuding a stench.
They saw a few boats along the way, but they were either wooden boats or kayaks commonly used in tourist attractions. What they all have in common is that they all need human paddles. And no ship of an industrial nature was seen on weekdays.
It was obviously not a wise move to go to the city center of Xiangshi in a boat with human paddles, so the group had to continue searching along the river.
Soon, they found two bamboo rafts near the shore of the next town, the kind that could be used for sightseeing. After confirming that they had engines, a group of people prepared to approach there.
Shi Gongdu was very excited: “I don’t know which guy has brought all the bamboo rafts in tourist attractions. God helped me!”
After cleaning up the surrounding zombies, the group sent Hao Jian and Xin Ting to inspect the bamboo raft. Xin Ting confirmed that one of the bamboo rafts used an electric marine engine and was in a state of power failure, while the other was still using an older gasoline engine, but it had no gasoline, and it was pushed into the shallows. .
“Pour the remaining gasoline inside, and move things down!” Hao Jian said.
In fact, they didn’t have much things, and some were just luggage and all kinds of tatters picked up on the road. They will be able to go to Xiangshi soon, so there is no need to hold those tattered ones.
When a few people approached the bamboo raft while carrying their bags, suddenly a few people jumped from the high **** on the side of the road. They rushed to Hao Jian and Xin Ting first: “Haha, I didn’t expect you to still have gasoline. God helps me too!”
The words that Shi Gonglue said before were mentioned, as if they were hitting him in the face, the kind of “pop”.
“Mantis catches cicadas, oriole is behind?” Hao Jian didn’t change his face, looking at the people surrounding them.
Four of the five people were men and only one woman, but the woman knew at first glance that she was not a weak person. Her expression made Hao Jian naturally think of the criminals on the wanted order.
All five of them held weapons such as knives, steel forks, clubs, axes, and truncheons in their hands. Although Hao Jian and the others seemed to have weapons on their bodies, who made them mostly women?
In their eyes, women are weak and not to be feared.
Hao Jian looked at them coldly. It was easy to kill zombies, but to deal with these people, she really didn’t have enough power to deal with them.
At this moment, some zombies appeared around, and the woman shouted: “Kill them quickly, we can leave!”
Hao Jian pulls out the gun and smiles: “Look at it, your sword is fast or mine is fast.”
The man who was pointed at Hao Jian’s gun smiled, his smile full of contempt: “Who doesn’t have a toy gun?”
Just after speaking, there was a “bang”, the man paused, and then let out a cry of pain. His companion was startled by the sound, and at the same time saw a lot of blood dripping from the man’s lower abdomen, dripping to the ground…
“This the **** is actually a real gun?!” They were shocked, but they were not frightened by Hao Jian until another person was hit by Hao Jian.
Two people were injured in a row, and the rest of them had no doubt that Hao Jian still had a lot of bullets in his magazine. Although they are tall and overwhelming in terms of strength, they are not able to stand up to guns.
What’s more, Lian Runing, Peng Mao, and Shi Gongdui also rushed over. Seeing that they had only three people left, they lost to the five of them, so they retreated quickly.
“Fuck, if it wasn’t for the zombies, I would have killed you turtles and grandchildren!” Shi Gongdi exclaimed, “Good classmates, hurry up and go!”
Hao Jian and them threw something on the bamboo raft, then pushed it into the water and pushed it for several meters until the water reached their knees before they climbed onto the bamboo raft one after another.
The zombies have already ran up to the shallows. The two people who were shot but not yet died saw so many zombies and wanted to run. However, they couldn’t run away from the zombies at all, and soon they heard their misery again. Scream.
Everyone trembled in their hearts, and then Shi Gong Dui pushed Peng Mao: “Go and drive the bamboo raft.”
“I can’t open this thing!” Peng Mao said.
After he finished speaking, he and Shi Gongdi looked at Hao Jian, and Hao Jian pondered for a moment: “Neither will I.”
“…” Seeing that the feet of some zombies were already in the water, Shi Gongyu cursed “Fuck”, then grabbed Xin Ting’s gasoline rice cutter and pointed it at the zombies.
The zombies who got into the water first have reached the position of the rice cutter gear, and Shi Gongding fiercely slammed up, and shouted: “Hurry up and find something to row a boat. You can row away first!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of “tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk”, and then the bamboo raft shook and Shi Gongtu almost fell off. However, his balance was okay, and he quickly stabilized.
They looked at Xin Ting, and the latter said shyly: “In fact, the principles of many gasoline engines are a bit similar…”
“Um, move the paddle that controls the direction, otherwise you will send us all to the lost den.” Hao Jian finished, slashing the zombie’s neck with a knife.
I saw that the bamboo raft slid straight towards the shallows without paddling to control the direction. Lian Ru Ning’s eyes hurried over to adjust the direction of the oars. After a while, the bamboo raft made a turn and moved a little further away from the shallows.
The zombies didn’t give up, they went directly down the river, and then they were gradually covered by the water.
And thinking that there might be zombies walking at the bottom of the river, Xin Ting got goose bumps all over her body, and drove the maximum horsepower, and then gradually stabilized under the turmoil of not knowing how to control the oars several times.
