Chapter 10 No Man's Land
When I opened the door, I didn't see my mother, but I saw Xiaoyun coming over with dark circles under her eyes.
"What about Mother?"
Xiao Yun nodded at Gu Tingyan and replied, "In the bedroom, I said that I would let you come back and come over." ”
"Okay, I got it. You go and take Mr. Gu to the upstairs guest room to rest first. He turned his head to Gu Tingyan and said, "If you have any requirements, just tell me, and you will definitely meet them." ”
He Li thought, this Gu Tingyan is the president of the group, and the quality of life is definitely there, and there should be a lot of requirements.
Gu Tingyan was not polite, and directly said "good".
"Mr. Gu, please come here. Xiao Yun said as she made a "please" gesture.
Gu Tingyan nodded and followed Xiao Yun to his head, but cast a deep glance at He Li at the bend of the stairs - Alliance, you are qualified.
After He Limu sent the two upstairs, he walked to his mother's bedroom, missing Gu Tingyan's deep glance.
Before he reached his mother's bedroom, he saw his mother's somewhat thin body moving towards this side, and when he saw He Li, he paused with some urgent steps and shouted, "Ah Li!"
He Li smiled, walked towards her, and said, "Mom, I'm back." ”
Xu Jiashu smiled, unable to hide his excitement, but his face was haggard, as if he had experienced something. I haven't seen each other for two days, and so many things have happened, it's really impermanent.
Still, it's okay.
Under the orange bedside lamp, the mother and daughter sit facing each other on the sofa.
He Li stared at his mother's eyes and asked, "Mom, what happened last night?"
Xu Jia saw her daughter's tough attitude and understood that some things were not to be said, so she first sighed long, stared at the bright red petals on He Li's neck, showing a little uncommon vulnerability and fear, and then said, "It's no man's land!"
A dreamless night. He Li woke up early, cleaned up casually, and went out, she remembered that there was a villager near H City who was the best at making knives, and imitated the Wu knife with the local method of making knives thousands of years ago.
He Li was tired for a while, and finally took the knife in his hand, the mirror-like knife body was cold-cold, and the cold light condensed on the knife surface reflected the unstoppable flow of the human face, adding endless coolness, this is undoubtedly a good knife. But the knife is thin and easy to break, and if the blade is missing in the process of cutting zombies, it will be embarrassing.
He Li was not afraid of trouble to test the retention, toughness, and elasticity of several knives, and was immediately overjoyed, she had never seen such a good knife in the last days, although it was not as good as "blowing the hair and cutting the blade, sharpening iron like clay", but it was definitely a good knife that could kill.
In the next few days, there was a large amount of bottled water, a large amount of diesel and gasoline, a small generator, various condiments, and a large number of pickled foods. Specially customized more than a dozen pairs of cowhide boots, non-slip and easy to wear. Not to mention toilet paper, sanitary napkins, tampons, and the complete destruction of the post-apocalyptic production line, these are not things that do not help much for the continuation of life, they are simply hard to find. The money in his pocket is decreasing, but there are more and more things in the space, He Li is finally able to settle down, and the next time is mainly to add some small things, and concentrate on practicing his machete at home, waiting for the end of the world.
On this day of the end of the world, the sky was overcast, and at this moment, at three o'clock in the morning, almost everyone was still sleeping.
He Li wore a denim jacket, black slacks, cowhide boots, and a machete tightly wrapped in black cloth on his back, and went out lightly.
Carefully hiding on the street corner, the probe looked around to see that there was no one, and then walked out.
"Click" He Li kicked open the glass of a convenience store, and didn't care about the camera above, after today, who would specifically call up the surveillance records, and reached out to receive the cigarettes and alcohol next to the cash register into the space, even if she didn't drink or smoke, these things were priceless in the last days. Anyway, she doesn't have too much.
In this way, every street was swept clean, and she didn't even let go of children's clothing stores and men's clothing stores. Sure enough, as she thought, the human body should be undergoing some changes at this moment, just like the virus gene hidden in the body has been stimulated, some people are transforming into zombies, some people are beginning to mutate, and a very small number of people, their bodies seem to have no changes, but in fact they are waiting for the right time to stimulate greater potential, of course, there are still some ordinary people, there is no change from beginning to end, this is the real cruelty of the end of the world, good people are equal to each other, and the consequences can be imagined.
He Li endured the sleepiness and took advantage of the fact that almost everyone was sleeping and mutating today, and collected materials unscrupulously.
After seeing that there was nothing left on this street, he flashed and went to the large shopping mall next to it, and he didn't care what he received, anyway, everywhere he went, the "Piece of Armor Doesn't Stay" counter dummy model didn't let go, He Li's speed continued to increase, because after dawn, the world would fall into hell.
After looting the goods layer by layer, he turned around and ran quickly in the direction of the community, when the sky was already cloudy, and when he walked on the road, he heard crying and screaming from the buildings next to him.
The bottom of my heart sank, it was still too late, I untied the black cloth, took out the machete, looked around vigilantly, and accelerated the pace of my feet, there was no danger along the way. Walking to the door of the community, looking at a security guard walking around the door, He Li's eyes suddenly became sharp, looking at this strange action, there is no doubt that it is a zombie.
The zombie noticed that someone was coming, turned around and was immediately excited, and pounced on it with his hand.
He Li stared at it, clenched the handle of the knife and met it, picked up the machete and slashed at the neck, killing with one sword, that is, when the blade was slashed on the cervical vertebrae, her wrist was numb for a while, and she frowned and rubbed it, this body is still too weak.
Before He Lidao could confiscate it, he heard a man standing on the balcony shouting, "Murder, murder." ”
He Li smiled disdainfully, killing?
Ignoring the man's shouting, he quickened his pace, and all kinds of screams and insults kept coming from the community room. He Li returned to his small house unimpeded, Qingxin himself was fortunate to live on the second floor, if the floor was higher, maybe he would be trapped halfway.
Entering the house, he spread out on the sofa, exhaling heavily, closing his eyes and not wanting to move, he still went out less before the ability was activated, and his physical strength still needed to be practiced.
After a break, she stood up and locked the door, because of a period of time when thieves frequently visited the community, her parents pressed the anti-theft window, replaced it with a thick iron door, and installed an anti-theft door outside, which was enough to deal with the current junior zombies.
Lying on the cat's eye and looking outside, a few figures kept swaying at the staircase, and I couldn't help but take precautions in my heart, although I lived on the second floor and was closer to the exit, but the zombies could come up directly from the door of the building. He Li was a little annoyed in his heart, when he just came in, he actually forgot to close the door.
He Li took out two eggs from the space, pulled some chopped green onions, scrambled an egg fried rice, sat in front of the TV with a bowl and watched the last program, some TV stations have stopped, and a certain station is still insisting, but there is no news of today's changes, but it is not appropriate to put a certain cartoon in the morning, what is this sports news channel mixed here. He Pi didn't have much of an opinion, and he ate quite well on the mentally handicapped dialogue on TV.
After eating, I put the bowl in the sink, thinking about saving more and washing, so that it would save trouble, and not waste water, I turned around and went into the bedroom to go to bed and sleep a little sleep.
He Li was waking up at noon, usually at this time the corridor was full of the smell of rice, but now it was as quiet as death. He Li's mood didn't fluctuate much, this month was too comfortable, but for her, she was used to such a world, and after more than ten years of crawling and rolling in the last days, her heart had long been unable to stir up a little waves.
Warm up the morning meal, casually pulled out two mouthfuls, hung a lock on his body, picked up the machete and pressed it against the door, lay on the cat's eye and looked twice, there was nothing at the staircase, but there were still a few swaying outside the building, zombies were afraid of heat, and afraid of cold, at noon, the activity would be lower. He Li cautiously opened the iron door, looked out through the crack in the door of the security door, and suddenly a zombie stretched out its gray face and was about to bite her, and squeezed it desperately through the security door, and the mucus in his mouth dripped down the railing.
He Li's face did not change, gritted his teeth and took out a dagger and dragged the zombie's hair and stabbed it out of his eyes, and he slammed it twice in the zombie's brain in this position, and finally stopped moving.
Carefully determined that there was indeed nothing at the staircase, he carefully opened the security door and went out lightly, holding only the handle of the knife with both hands, half-raised, and looked cautious and cautious. Slowly moved downstairs, just walked to the side of the iron door, the zombies outside found her, with a hideous face, with a blood-red mouth "ho, ho" pounced up.
He Li locked the door, hung a key to the rope on the iron nail next to her, and kept two more for herself, and before she could breathe a sigh of relief, the zombies upstairs were attracted by the movement just now.
He Li's eyes were sharp, and she slashed to death with a big knife while walking up, slashing so numb that she didn't wait for too many zombies upstairs to come down, she ran into the house, "Bang" I closed the security door at once, and locked several locks on the iron door, only to breathe a sigh of relief, sat on the sofa and pulled out a few pieces of paper from the table to wipe the blood stains on the knife clean, and smelled the stench on the body, frowned and went to take a shower, the water seemed to be about to stop, He Li washed casually on this thin stream of water, looked at the coat on the ground, and thought about it, or don't waste water to wash, leather clothes are very popular in the last days, what stains can be wiped off, the wind and warmth effect is good, but it is not breathable in summer. He Li has collected a large number of leather clothes in the space, and the chemical fibers like those under his feet are not often worn.
He Li rubbed his hair and pricked up his ears to listen to the movement outside the door, and frowned, it seems that there are a lot of them. But I wasn't too anxious in my heart, and after a long day of no movement, they would disperse on their own.
