Chapter 52: Saving People
After cooling down, Xu Shiqing's body encountered the same situation as a zombie, moving slowly and reacting. Although he still retains the consciousness of human beings and does not have the bloodlust of zombies*, Xu Shiqing still feels that he is different from normal humans, so he has always been reluctant to contact others.
Tang Moqi has been very busy this month, in addition to accommodating Tang Jianfeng's old department brought by Chen Weiliang, he also has to take everyone out with Ye Jin to collect supplies. Before, Shen Jianlin and the mother and daughter of the Zhang family wasted a lot of materials in the back room, and even took some of them away.
Tang Moqi did not force Xu Shiqing to stay, he always knew that Xu Shiqing still had a lover who was stranded in the south before the end of the world, Tang Moqi loaded him with some supplies and watched him go on the road.
Xu Shiqing's departure did not attract anyone's attention, Tang Moqi and they still go out every day, but now that they have a heart, there will always be a few people left behind in the courtyard. Due to the sudden drop in temperature, the courtyard has burned the boiler, in this case the safety zone will definitely not be able to unify the heating, but coal is provided, a pound of grain and 20 pounds of coal.
Heavy snow covered almost the entire city, and the car basically couldn't drive out of the safe zone, so it could only walk. This time the area they searched was a large store ten kilometers west of the security zone, if it was before the heavy snow, Tang Moqi would never bring people here, the neighborhood is dense, and the population density is high, which means that the zombie density is high. And the buildings here are old and disorganized, and once there is danger, there is no place to run.
But things are different now, and the period before the virus has fully adapted to the cold temperature is the last respite for humanity. At this time, most of the zombies were restrained by the cold, and the entire city seemed to be emptied, and danger was quietly lurking.
There is a large supermarket on the first floor and one basement on the ground, while the other five floors above ground are selling all kinds of clothing and daily necessities. It's a long way from the safe zone, and most of the goods are still there, except for a round of looting at the beginning of the apocalypse.
"A team of people went to the supermarket with Brother Ye, and a team of people went up with me. Tang Moqi pointed to the top of the mall and glanced at the people behind him. Chen Weiliang brought out a total of six people from the army, and these six people are basically alone at present, either the whole family has lost contact, or they have all confirmed that they are no longer there. Two of them stayed in the courtyard, and four of them followed, they have been acting together for a month, and they have gone from not caring about Tang Moqi to admiring them now.
Tang Moqi still looks like a college student who has just come of age, but his physical intelligence and reflexes are not worse than those of these special forces veterans, and they are even completely above them, and his physical endurance and explosiveness are quite amazing.
Considering that the underground supermarket was dangerous without light, in the end, only Ye Zeyue and the two soldiers followed Tang Moqi upstairs. The rest of the people followed Ye Jin to the supermarket.
Tang Moqi took a look at the distribution map of the shopping mall, and led a team of people straight to the bedding on the fourth floor, there were more and more people in the courtyard, the first thing missing was the bedding, Tang Moqi had a lot in the space, but the items in the back cover room were counted in full view of everyone after being ruined by Shen Jianlin, and Tang Moqi could not take out a dozen bedding out of thin air. So now these soldiers are basically two people and one bed......
Just as Tang Mo was praying for them to search for the goods in the mall, gunshots suddenly appeared outside. Tang Moqi immediately looked over from the window in the direction where he wanted to shoot, but the cluttered buildings outside blocked his view, Ye Zeyue was holding three duvets and staggered over, and asked, "Brother Qi, why do I seem to hear gunshots?"
Tang Moqi nodded, and said from the other two soldiers: "You use two bed boards to build a larger sled, and we will drag it back when we put things." The two soldiers nodded, apparently thinking that this was a good idea. I went to get it in a hurry. Tang Moqi held the gun and looked down at the entrance of the mall, and as the gunfire got closer and closer, Ye Zeyue also came over to stare at it.
Tang Moqi came down from the fourth floor, and he could already see the people outside, but obviously the gunshots were not for the zombies, but for the two groups of people fighting.
The group of people close to the mall are already facing the end of the road, the two people who fell to the ground are obviously out of breath, and the few people who are still resisting are also injured and disabled.
Tang Moqi took Ye Zeyue to observe in the dark, in case the flames of war burned to them. Ten minutes later, there were only two people left in the group close to the mall, and one of them was seriously injured, and the two finally gave up their resistance and ran into the mall.
At this time, Ye Jin also heard the gunshots and came out to check, and when he saw the two people who came in, his brows furrowed fiercely. The people who came saw that Ye Jin was also on guard, the injured man covered his abdomen and was bleeding nonstop, his face was already pale and he couldn't stand anymore, and the group of people outside obviously didn't intend to let them go lightly, and were attacking this side.
Tang Moqi took Ye Zeyue out, Ye Jin glanced at the injured man, and the other person had already laid him flat on the ground and was kneeling beside him and tearing his clothes to stop the bleeding. After seeing Tang Moqi, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Ye Jin walked over and asked, "Are you from the Shen family?"
The man kneeling on the ground nodded and said, "If I'm not mistaken, there are also people from the Shen family outside." ”
Tang Moqi quietly glanced at the person lying on the ground, it was actually Shen Jianxi, the eldest young master of the Shen family. At this point, he was already in a coma.
"How can you fight with people?" Tang Moqi had only seen Shen Jianxi at a banquet, and he was also a very well-known man. Compared with Shen Jianlin's arrogance, this Shen family leader is much more low-key, and there have almost never been any rumors.
The man glanced at the group of people who were getting closer and closer outside, turned his head and still knelt in front of Tang Moqi, Tang Moqi reacted very quickly and let go, "If you have something to say, talk well!"
The man glanced at Shen Jianxi, who had lost consciousness, with red eyes, and said, "My life is given by the eldest young master, if you can take the life of the eldest young master, my Zhou Qiang's life is yours." ”
Tang Moqi glanced outside and said sarcastically: "What's the use of my life? I can eat and drink? These people outside are extremely vicious, why should we cause a lot of trouble for irrelevant people?"
The man clenched his fists, raised his head and stared at Tang Moqi resentfully, and said, "Are you just going to die like this?"
Tang Moqi sneered and said, "Why do you still want to talk to me about kindness and morality?"
The man looked at Shen Jianxi, who was pale, took out a miniature voice recorder from his pocket, and said: "I know that you and the Shen family are not dealing with each other, but behind Tang Jianfeng's death is not only the Shen family, but also Tang Jianfeng's own uncle Xue Shiming, and even your Tang family yourself have participated in it, and there is evidence in this that can bring down the Shen family, as long as you promise to save him, this evidence is yours." ”
Tang Moqi finally took the recorder under the man's anxious gaze. The man took one last look at Shen Jianxi, and then suddenly ran out, Ye Jin shouted, "Not good!"
