Chapter XXIV
After laughing, Zhang Hao clapped his hands to let everyone be quiet first, he cleared his throat and said, "Let's get ready to leave, it's already two o'clock." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAlthough the base is not far away, it takes more than half an hour to walk there at a normal speed. Now the situation on the road is unknown, and we have so many supplies with us, we have to pay attention to bypassing those crowded streets, and it will take two or three times as long to get there, to say the least. For the sake of safety, we must arrive before five o'clock. I tried it just now, and the power went out in the supermarket, and after dark it was the home of the zombies. ”
Zhang Hao's words are reasonable, and they are related to everyone's personal safety, so naturally no one is picking on and opposing them. Zhang Hao saw that everyone had no objections, so he continued to speak: "The main entrance of our school must not be walked, and it is too dangerous to walk through the teaching area from there. Originally, the south gate was a good choice, but there was a snack street outside, although you could collect some supplies by the way, but the zombies there would not be much less than the cafeteria, which was not something that our team could deal with. Now the only thing left to choose is the West Gate and the North Gate, which do you think is more suitable? ”
After listening to Zhang Hao's words, Qin Qin immediately replied: "Ximen can't go." In front of the small playground in the dormitory area to walk through the west gate, yesterday was Halloween, there were activities, there were crowds, I was able to escape because I didn't enter the playground late. You can imagine how many zombies there are right now, but I'm sure it's not much better than the cafeteria. ”
Qin Qin's explanation made everyone feel terrified, after all, the canteen occupies a limited area, and it is not as open as the playground, and there are more people going. Although the small playground is easier to escape than the cafeteria, last night's event set up a lot of sheds and shelves on the small playground, decorating the playground in a strange way, and at the same time, it also made the activity very lively. The atmosphere of Halloween is really there, and even zombies are running out to meet the occasion. I don't know how many classmates can escape from the small playground safely under the dual threat of zombies and the surrounding environment.
Zhang Hao frowned and said, "Are we going to take a detour from the north gate?" That's the farthest road, at least a kilometer more than a kilometer away, and the base is a little west directly south of our university. ”
Qin Qin, as one of the only two captains on the scene, still insisted that Ximen was a dangerous route. "From here to the north gate, you have to go through the dormitory, which usually takes about 15 minutes," she said. With our current strength, as long as we carefully avoid those large waves of zombies, we should be able to arrive within half an hour. It's a bit of a detour, but it's the safest route. After all, the time when the zombies appear is six o'clock in the evening, and many people are either eating, going to class, or participating in activities, and there are far fewer people in the dormitory area than usual. ”
Zhang Hao thought about it for a while, made up his mind, and said, "According to what Qin Qin said, let's go to the north gate." Although the north gate is a bit detoured, it is indeed much safer. And the Jinhe Avenue outside the north gate is a big road, and there are not many pedestrians on the road. If we're lucky, we might be able to find a few cars that still work, and that would be perfect, with a maximum of ten minutes to drive. ”
Qin Qin looked at Zhang Hao's happiness, and couldn't help but ask cautiously: "Uh, Brother Zhang, do you know how to drive?" ”
Zhang Hao was suddenly stuck, he scratched his head with a smile, and said, "I've learned, I've learned." I just haven't got my driver's license yet. But I've been on the road twice, so I'm guaranteed to get the car moving, and I don't have a police license check anyway. Hey," Zhang Hao became more and more empty-hearted the more he spoke, and he looked at his brothers, "Do you know how to drive?" ”
Those people looked at each other, and then shook their heads in unison, some of them have begun to learn to drive, but they have just passed the theory test, and they barely know where the brake throttle is, and there is no guarantee that they will not step on the wrong step in an emergency.
Zhou Beichen saw that Qin Qin and Zhang Hao were a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly stood up and said, "I can drive, the technology is okay, and the general minibus is no problem." If we're lucky, we'll still be able to take the car. ”
Zhang Hao immediately grabbed Zhou Beichen's hand happily and shook it, happily commanding everyone: "Brother Zhou is still reliable." Let's get out of school quickly. I don't believe it, in the past few kilometers of the base, there is not even a suitable car? ”
Half an hour later, looking at the scene outside the school gate, Zhang Hao couldn't wait to give himself a mouthful, I'm afraid there really isn't, even if there is, it can't be opened.
Jinhe Avenue outside the north gate of Qin Qin's university is a spacious two-way six-lane road, and the traffic back and forth is constantly shuttling back and forth on weekdays. Although the road is wide enough to avoid frequent traffic jams, the traffic on this road has never stopped. The zombie virus outbreak is at 6 p.m., which is the rush hour for commuting. Even if only one driver in ten cars is unfortunate enough to turn into a zombie, a sudden loss of control of the car is enough to involve all the vehicles in the front and back, left and right in the car accident.
On this usually busy and vibrant street, a short section of the road no more than 500 meters between the two traffic light intersections, Qin Qin saw at a glance the traces of at least five car accidents, and the vehicles in the horizontal and vertical directions jammed the motorway tightly, and even a few unlucky cars broke through the guardrail and crashed into the building on the side of the sidewalk.
Non-motorized lanes are slightly better, perhaps because bicycles and electric bikes are smaller and more responsive, and they are not damaged much. But the non-motorized lanes are not wide in the first place, and even if only a few broken electric vehicles stop on the road, it will be difficult to let traffic pass. Not to mention a small bus, even if a QQ comes, it is difficult to squeeze through, unless someone is willing to run in front of the vehicle in time to clear the way.
Zhang Hao sighed, looked at the few temporary team members who were already tired and panting, and reluctantly announced a temporary break for ten minutes.
The little fat man Lu Letian was already tired enough to hold the snakeskin bag, and when he heard this, he immediately sat on the ground with the bag in his arms. Although he didn't participate in the battles along the way, just walking for half an hour with such a heavy thing was enough to make this guy whose weight had already caught up with his height figure out of breath.
Dou Le didn't expect Lu Letian to really treat his snakeskin bag as a baby, and he was so tired that he had to sit down with his arms, and he was amazed at the moment: "Brother Lu, you are too dedicated to being a tank." Don't worry, if I find something suitable for my shield in the future, I will definitely bring it back for you and replace it. ”
Lu Letian was so tired that he didn't want to speak, so he waved his hand to show that Dou Le should not be poor.
Qin Qin looked at the street, frowning slightly. Zhou Beichen asked out loud when he saw it: "What's wrong?" What do you see? ”
Qin Qin pointed to the scene of a car accident and asked: "I seem to see zombies wandering there, didn't you say that zombies won't open the door, so how did they get out of the car?" ”
Zhou Beichen shrugged his shoulders and said, "Someone else opened it, and no one knew what was going on when there was a car accident." Seeing that after a car hit so many cars, the driver dared not come out, and the fire would naturally rush up and pull the driver down and punch him twice. The driver who has just turned into a zombie is not a vegetarian, but anyone who goes up and moves his hands and feet will inevitably be bitten and scratched a few times. With such an infection, although the distribution of zombies on this street is relatively scattered, the total number will not be less. Let's think about the past, we still have a lot of work. ”
Zhou Beichen didn't avoid people when he spoke, Zhang Hao, who heard these remarks, was a little anxious, according to this grinding speed, it was really difficult to rush over before five o'clock while walking. The road is so congested that he can't drive, but he is really unwilling to go back to the supermarket now to rest for one night before leaving.
Zhang Hao gritted his teeth and decided to take some risks, he walked up to Qin Qin and Zhou Beichen and said, "It seems that time is a little tight now, if we stop and go again, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach the base before dark." In this way, Captain Qin, and Deputy Captain Zhou, a few brothers and I will open the way in front, and your team will protect everyone to follow. Do you think that's okay? ”
Qin Qin saw Zhou Beichen nodding slightly, and after thinking about it, he nodded in agreement. "I, Beichen, Sister Lan, and Dou Le can all do it, Lotte has to move things, and Zhao Qi has a leg injury and can barely keep up with the team. It's a little difficult for the four of us to protect ten people, but if we move a little bit, we won't attract zombies when we walk behind. It should be fine, we'll try to protect everyone. ”
After Qin Qin agreed, Zhang Hao worriedly told everyone about the plan, reminding everyone that no matter what they encountered during the march, they must stay calm and not make too much movement. And there will be less rest time later, because everyone has to get to the base before dark. The two timid girls who were rescued at the beginning were full of unhappiness, and complained that they were already very tired from walking, and if they couldn't rest well, they might not be able to keep up with the team.
Zhang Hao had long been very distempered by these two princesses who only knew how to cry and chatter, except for the three-day rations they had allocated, they also helped each of the fighting members to get a share, and the others all made excuses that they couldn't take it and refused. Now that he wants to rest again, Zhang Hao doesn't want to endure it even if he has a good temper, and immediately said angrily: "If you can't walk, go back to school, we won't wait for you." How many did you take? Now you have to rely on our protection to go to the base, and it's not me begging you to love to go. ”
Zhang Hao's sudden change of face scared the two girls so much that they didn't dare to speak anymore, and they dared to complain before only because Zhang Hao was a good-tempered person and kind person, and they saved one by one. After seeing the misfortune of the two girls in the supermarket, no one was stupid enough to think that the world was still beautiful. In the last days, it is not a bad thing to maintain a good nature, but there must be a bottom line, otherwise you will wait to be angry with those guys who have been angry and then be complained of being cold-blooded and ruthless.
