XVII. Determination to become stronger
"Sorry to interrupt, can I get some water and food here?"
Everyone looked up and saw a middle-aged man with a Chinese face standing at the door, followed by two young people, who were from two cars over there.
The people in the car had already come down, plus the three people at the door, a total of thirteen, in addition to these three people, there were eight other young people, an old man in his 60s and a little girl of 15 or 6 years old, those eight people stood in different directions, seemed to be bodyguards.
Guo Ming saw that a few people looked at him and didn't speak, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed, they originally came to Y County to pick up Professor Shen Tianli who came to play with his granddaughter, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen, along the way to protect these two people to Gaominba, the original team of twenty people, only thirteen left, and seven people turned into zombies, biting two people, and four sacrificed on the way to buy time for them.
Who knew that after arriving at Gaomin Dam, it was too late to find food and there was a rat tide, Guo Ming had no choice but to take someone to protect Professor Shen and the two to escape again, and when they reached the fork in the road, Guo Ming immediately made a decision to keep up with the car that first sensed the attack of the rat tide, and it turned out that Guo Ming did not choose the wrong one.
Because of the suddenness of the incident, they did not prepare food, and the little food they found was given priority to Professor Shen Tianli and his granddaughter Shen Yao, and now they have not eaten for a day, smelling the aroma of rice here, looking at the tiredness and envy on the faces of their teammates, Guo Ming came over with two teammates cheekily.
Seeing the embarrassing scene, Mo Fei looked left and right, five of the eight women, three men, a child, and an elder, Mo Fei touched his nose and said: "The things here are not ours, I want to take them myself." ”
"Thank you."
Guo Ming thanked him gratefully, and asked the two young men behind him to go into the house to get water and food, Li Rong saw that there was an old man and a little girl over there, and took pity on it, took the cooked rice in the rice cooker aside, washed it with water briefly, beat a few bowls of rice into the pot again, and plugged in the power supply after adding water.
"It's cold at night, let them all in, don't freeze, and the gas stove is troublesome to move around."
"It's... Then Guo Ming would like to thank you. ”
This group of people was the first to find out when the rat tide came, and they didn't leave alone but reminded everyone that they were not dangerous people, and they didn't know Shen Lao's identity, so there was no reason to do anything to hurt Shen Lao, seeing that the other people did not object, thinking that the room was indeed warmer, they hesitated for a while and agreed.
After Guo Ming thanked him, he walked quickly to Shen Tianli's side to explain the situation, Shen Tianli looked at this side, nodded and led Shen Yao to the supermarket, the other six people followed Shen Tianli closely, and the other two drove the car to the door of the supermarket. Shen Tianli and the others entered the supermarket, and did not immediately go over to thank them, but waited until the eight of them finished their meal before they brought Shen Yao and Guo Ming over.
"Hello everyone, Shen Tianli is here to thank you for your help."
"You're too polite, you should have supported each other when you're away."
Seeing the old man coming, Zhao Jun hurriedly stood up and shook hands with Shen Tianli, and then gave up his place for the three of them to sit down.
"This is Guo Ming, their captain, you have already met, this is my granddaughter, her name is Shen Yao." After sitting down, Shen Tianli pointed to Guo Ming and Shen Yao and introduced.
"My name is Zhao Jun, this is my wife, my daughter Zhao Yuan, and the girl holding the knife is my niece Wu Liu, they are all friends of Liu Liu, Xia Yu, Wang Ziyue, Du Yuze, Mo Fei." Zhao Jun pointed to the seven people and introduced them one by one.
After a polite introduction, the two got acquainted with each other, and said words about the end of the world, and heard Zhao Jun say that Wu Liu's three women came to pick them up from X County was a burst of surprise and admiration, among which Wu Liu and Wang Ziyue's skills they have also seen, although Wu Liu's battle is disorderly, but this courage is also worthy of admiration. After Guo Ming's teammates cooked the meal, Shen Tianli took the two of them to thank them again and returned there
A few people here were talking, Wu Liu and a few people were also sitting on the side talking and laughing, Xia Yu and Zhao Yuan fell asleep leaning on each other after eating because of the overuse of their abilities, and Du Yuze was also drowsy because of his injury leaning on Wu Liu's arms, Wu Liu and Wang Ziyue were talking in a whisper, most of them were Wu Liu talking, Wang Ziyue listened, and occasionally interjected two words on the side.
"Go, go, go, woman talking, you are a big man, what are you doing, you have nothing to do, go outside and take out the crystal nucleus."
"You, you, you, you, aren't you, do you know that it's dark now, I just ate, let me dig the crystal nucleus now??!!!"
Mo Fei heard that he was going to dig the crystal nucleus, his face turned pale, and he didn't control the sound of speaking, except for Xia Yu and Zhao Yuan, who were asleep, all turned their heads to look at Mo Fei in the supermarket, and Du Yuze, who was already half-asleep, was also half-opened his eyes in shock by this sound.
"Be quiet, don't you see the noisy children? Are you going or not? ”
Wu Liu patted Twilight Yuze and waved his fist at Mo Fei. Seeing the danger in Wu Liu's smiling expression, he twitched the corners of his mouth and walked out of the supermarket with a stick in a scolding manner.
"Liu Liu, he'll be fine alone, right?"
"Don't worry, aunt, what can he do with a big man, not to mention that he still has a special ability to protect himself."
Li Rong nodded, picked up the quilt taken from the duty room and covered Zhao Yuan and the two, sat next to the two and took a nap.
"Ah Yue, you can rest for a while, I'll keep vigil for a while."
"I can still hold on."
"Go quickly, you are one of our main forces here, I am in better spirits than you, and I can sleep in the car tomorrow."
"Alright, I'll go get the quilt."
"Okay."
The night in March is still very cold, if there is no quilt, it will definitely freeze, as for where the quilt came from, the two looked at each other tacitly.
After a while, Wang Ziyue came in with a three-bed quilt, the car was only so big, and it had to be loaded with supplies, it was impossible to have too many quilts, the three-bed quilt was already the limit, put Du Yuze next to Li Rong, Wu Liu took one quilt to Zhao Jun, and walked towards Shen Tianli with another quilt.
"Shen Lao, it's cold, you and Sister Shen Yao have to cover this quilt, don't catch a cold."
"Thank you, Sister Wu."
Shen Yao hurriedly got up and took the quilt, her eyes were moist, after all, she was still a child, she grew up pampered since she was a child, and the world suddenly changed greatly, and it was natural to be scared, she had been on the run for the past two days, and Shen Tianli had no time to care about her, and suddenly heard the concern of others, her heart was sour, and she almost fell into tears.
"It's fine."
Wu Liu is not good at comforting people, and he didn't know what to say when he saw the little girl with red eyes, and after handing the quilt to Shen Yao, he nodded to Shen Tianli and turned to leave.
Mo Fei had already come back, holding more than a dozen crystal nuclei in his hands, his face was pale, as if it was the first time he had done this kind of thing, and he hadn't adapted to it yet, so he just asked him to take it himself, so he walked to Li Rong and picked up Du Yuze, Du Yuze was alarmed, opened his eyes and saw that it was Wu Liu, he breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
The three-bed quilt is just two people in a bed, Twilight Yuze is still injured, if he sleeps on the ground, even if there is a quilt, he may get sick, Wu Liu had to carry Twilight Yuze back to the car and put it flat in the third row, put his hand on the bottom of the seat and take out a quilt from the space to cover Twilight Yuze, covering the car door, Wu Liu sat on the stool outside the supermarket, looking at the sky in a daze.
I don't know how my mother is doing, tomorrow my brother should listen to her and go to C City, fortunately, my brother and Xu Bin are here, my mother's safety is at least guaranteed, thinking about what happened in the past two days, Wu Liu understands that if she wants to live, she must become stronger, she still wants to go back to see her mother and brother alive, and she also wants to take her uncle and aunt back to see her mother, so she must become stronger, and only being strong is the guarantee of survival.
Thinking of this, Wu Liu stood up and took a knife to do the simplest chopping action in the yard.
In the dark night, a woman holding a knife in the night is trying to do chopping movements, her expression is extremely serious, and she doesn't care about the sweat sliding from the corners of her forehead, Guo Ming walked out of the supermarket and saw such a scene, looking at the firmness in the woman's eyes, Guo Ming walked over.
"That's not how knives are used."
Wu Liu stopped his movements and looked at Guo Ming with a frown.
"You're a bodyguard?"
Guo Ming was stunned, thought about it and nodded and said.
"Sort of."
"Teach me."
Looking at the stubbornness on the woman's face, Guo Ming nodded.
"Okay."
