Chapter 184: The Priest with the Axe (Part 1)
Zhou Ran pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I don't know much. She looked down at her fingers, "I was told that it was the safest place near Arashikawa. And there are a lot of resources, such as water, food, and electricity, and it is said that it is the only transit point in the vicinity that can go to other safe cities. ”
Her answer made Chen Yuan a little disappointed, he scratched his hair and asked, "What about anything else, is there anything more detailed?"
Zhou Ran shook his head slightly, "That's all I know." ”
"Okay. ”
It's a bit helpless, but there's no other way.
Chen Yuan continued to drive forward on this road in a BMW.
The warm air of the air conditioner gradually raised the temperature in the carriage to a comfortable level, and the three of them all changed into new clothes, so the wet feeling disappeared completely, which made Chen Yuan's mood barely better.
Still not on the right route, he could only tentatively drive along the street.
Zhou Ran has been silent, it seems that she should be a taciturn and cold woman. Only for her children, she shows great love.
After driving in silence for an hour, Suisui's voice came from behind, "Mom, I'm hungry......"
Zhou Ran frowned slightly, food has always been a very tricky problem. The reason why she and Suisui were able to meet Chen Yuan was because there was neither gas nor food in her car, otherwise she would definitely not want to leave her car. Now her daughter brought up this matter again, which made her very worried, after all, they were now in Chen Yuan's car, and she was embarrassed to open her mouth again and trouble him to go out to find food.
She touched Suisui's head lovingly, "Didn't Mom give you a piece of chocolate in the morning, you hold on a little longer, and when we find a place, Mom will take you to eat again, okay?"
Suisui looked very aggrieved, as if she was going to cry at any time, "It's not good......" She shook her head gently, "Mom, I'm so hungry now......"
Zhou Ran was about to coax her again, when he heard Chen Yuan say in front: "There is a plastic bag in the back box that is full of food, you look for it, and then you take the child to eat first." ”
Zhou Ran looked up at Chen Yuan's side face, a little hesitant in his heart. After all, in an environment full of zombies, food represents the basis for the continuation of life. Although Chen Yuan asked her to eat, she instinctively resisted in her heart. She didn't want to owe much to the man she had met for the first time.
Chen Yuan glanced at the rearview mirror and found that Zhou Ran did not take action. So he added, "The children are already very hungry, so don't think too much." As for food, you don't have to worry, I have a lot of ways to get new food, so you can go and rummage in the trunk. ”
In Zhou Ran's heart, she naturally didn't fully believe Chen Yuan's words, and was thinking about how to refuse, when the little girl in her arms said happily: "Mom, uncle said that there is food in the car!"
Chen Yuan rushed in front of Zhou Ran and replied: "Little guy, you are right, uncle, there are a lot of delicious foods in this car, let your mother help you get it." ”
When Suisui heard Chen Yuan's words, a happy smile immediately appeared on her face, she gently grabbed Zhou Ran's sleeve and shook it from side to side, "Mom, can you find something to eat?"
Zhou Ran finally compromised, "You little gluttonous cat." She gently pinched Suisui's face, then looked at Chen Yuan and asked, "Is it in the trunk?"
"Well, a very conspicuous plastic bag. ”
Zhou Ran nodded, she turned around and knelt on the seat, turning over in the trunk. The plastic bag full of food was easy to find, but at the same time, she saw the various firearms lying around.
She was subconsciously stunned for a moment, and after a moment of silence, she turned her back to Chen Yuan and asked, "Who are you, why are there so many guns in the car?"
Chen Yuan didn't have any special reaction, he just patiently explained to her, "I'm really a college student, and I found these guns with my friends in a shooting range in Jialing." ”
Zhou Ran took the bag of snacks and sat down in his seat again, looked at Chen Yuan suspiciously, and didn't speak to him again. She handed the bag of snacks to Suisui and said softly, "Let's see what you want to eat, can you?" ”
Suisui nodded vigorously, and soon carefully selected it in the bag.
Chen Yuan was a little speechless, this woman really has her own principles, but children are very innocent when they follow her. He adjusted his tone and said, "You don't have to be so economical, you can just give the little one whatever she wants." You don't have to worry about the food. ”
Suisui said to Chen Yuan excitedly, "Uncle, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course it's true. ”
"Wow!"
The little girl immediately took out a pack of Lay's potato chips from the bag, then took out a box of jelly, and handed it to Zhou Ran, "Mom help me open it." ”
Zhou Ran looked at Suisui helplessly, obviously still hesitating about food.
Chen Yuan looked at the rearview mirror and said to her, "Don't think about it, sister, wife, hurry up and help your daughter open the potato chips." ”
There was silence again, and Zhou Ran said a little embarrassed: "Thank you......"
Chen Yuan lit a cigarette and did not continue to speak.
The car continued to drive forward for more than ten minutes, and Zhou Ran took the initiative to ask him, "That, are you hungry?"
Hearing her ask, Chen Yuan really felt a little hungry.
He thought for a while, turned his head sideways and said to Zhou Ran, "Well, you can help me open the bread and hand it to me." ”
Zhou Ran nodded, "Okay." She quickly opened the package of the bread and placed it on Chen Yuan's hand.
Seeing Chen Yuan eat several bites like this, Zhou Ran opened another bottle of yogurt and handed it to Chen Yuan, "You drink some of this, it's too dry to eat bread alone." ”
Chen Yuan glanced back at Zhou Ran with some embarrassment.
At this time, Zhou Ran remembered that Chen Yuan wanted to control the steering wheel with one hand, and he was holding bread in the other, and he couldn't hold the yogurt anymore. She looked at the yogurt in her hand and hesitated for a while, then simply stretched it out directly to Chen Yuan's mouth, "You drink it, I'll hold it for you." ”
"Uh, thanks......"
This kind of action gradually restored the atmosphere in the BMW to a state that makes people feel more comfortable.
At first glance, it seems to have the feeling of a family of three traveling by car.
After eating the bread and yogurt, Chen Yuan felt that his physical strength had recovered a lot. Once again, he focused more on the scenery on both sides of the road.
The rain continued endlessly, but it seemed to be a little lighter than before.
After going on like this for a while, Suisui shook Zhou Ran, who was a little sleepy, "Mom, I want to pee......"
Zhou Ran pressed his forehead helplessly, this daughter of his own is really good at making trouble for her.
"Can't hold it anymore?"
Suisui nodded first, then shook his head, "I can hold it for a while." ”
"Then you hold on a little longer, Mom will figure it out. ”
Chen Yuan reached out and fiddled with the rearview mirror, "You don't have to think about it, I'll see which place is suitable, and then you get out of the car and take her to the toilet." ”
"Well, thank you......"
Drive down the street in front of you, and there should be a provincial road in front of you. Chen Yuan thought about it, the number of zombies over there should be very small, so he drove the BMW car onto the provincial road.
The situation was really similar to what he expected, just like the urban expressway in Jialing, there were basically no zombies on both sides of the road.
Chen Yuan didn't drive far along the provincial road, after all, if they continued along this road, they would leave Lanchuan and reach another city.
So he chose a relatively clean place and parked the car. After checking it again, there were no zombies nearby. He nodded contentedly, then pulled out two umbrellas from either side of the door.
"Get ready to get out of the car and go to the bathroom. ”
After Chen Yuan finished speaking, he took the lead in opening the umbrella and walked outside the car.
He looked around again, and in the heavy rain, there were no zombies in sight.
He walked to the door of the car on Zhou Ran's side and pulled the door open, "You take this umbrella." ”
Zhou Ran nodded and reached out to take the umbrella.
The three of them, two big and one urinated, walked to the side of the road with two umbrellas.
Chen Yuan said to Zhou Ran, "You don't have to worry, no one will watch it." ”
Zhou Ran nodded a little embarrassed.
Chen Yuan walked to the other side and began to release water.
After the battle ended quickly, he continued to stand in place and scout the situation of the zombies, but fortunately, he was lucky enough to find no suspicious figures. After a while, the mother and daughter were finished, and the three of them returned to the car and continued walking.
Before I knew it, the rain was getting lighter and lighter.
Chen Yuan sped up his speed slightly, eager to find the location of the third base right away.
Time passed little by little.
The real night has finally fallen.
Unexpectedly, after searching for a whole day, I still didn't find anything. This made Chen Yuan's mood a little bad. He was very unwilling and did not want to return to the shelter like this. So he continued along the road in front of him, thinking of passing by a suitable place to rest for the night.
However, the road was so bad that he searched for a long time and did not see a hotel.
Just as he was hesitating to turn back and go in a different direction, he saw a church not far in front of him. He thought about it for a moment and decided to be in this church tonight.
After telling Zhou Ran what he thought, the other party didn't mean to object.
After the car was parked, Chen Yuan checked the surrounding situation as usual. I don't know if it's because it's too dark, Chen Yuan feels like there are no zombies around here. After confirming it several times, he took the mother and daughter out of the car and walked into the church.
Chen Yuan took the candle in his hand and looked around the church. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed through the window, and with a muffled thunder, Chen Yuan saw a priest standing in front of him. With an axe in his hand, he slowly turned towards them.
