Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Uninvited Guest
The moment the nine people gathered, they were not as sensational or excited as they imagined, and they all just nodded to each other gasping for breath. Then hit the road again with a group.
It is necessary to catch up with the team in front of you. However, everyone can really be regarded as an escape from death just now. All the exhaustion is already manifested in the slower and slower pace.
The road ahead was extremely empty, and the team in front had left them far away, but they could still clearly see that the team in front of them was also moving forward quickly.
I don't know if they also look back from time to time to see if the team behind them is out of trouble. Suddenly, the person at the end of the line noticed that the group behind him had regrouped and rushed to the front, waving his hands and shouting. I can't hear what I shouted, but it should be a female voice.
Zheng Jiayi was just about to respond enthusiastically, when she heard Luo Yang scolding in a low voice: "Which big ****?" ”
Zheng Jiayi coughed dryly, and embarrassedly re-posed her right hand that was almost waving. She is not afraid of Luo Yang, but she is not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, and there must be some reason why Luo Yang said this at this time. So, she swallowed her saliva and swallowed all her excitement back.
Sure enough, the one waving in front of him should have been counted down by someone. I'm already on my way stupidly.
"There's no other stuff popping up, is it?" Zheng Jiayi was a little worried. Thinking back to the corpses of those corpse dogs I saw before, I always felt that there could not be just a few dogs in a village. Maybe there are cats, pigs, chickens, ducks, etc.
"Definitely!" Luo Yang thought Zheng Jiayi was asking him. Without looking back, he continued: "Our dozen or so people are not enough to attract the attention of 'corpses'? ”
Zheng Jiayi nodded silently, the more people there are, the stronger the smell must be, and the easier it is to attract the attention of the walking corpse. When most of the walking corpses found 'food'. Then the walking corpses in farther places will also follow the stream of corpses.
Zheng Jiayi nodded silently, the more people there were, the stronger the smell must be, thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance back, although there is a fish pond as a natural barrier, but there are still many walking corpses passing by' The single-plank bridge is chasing the team closely. Fortunately, there are not many of them, they are not fast, and they are scattered.
"Yiyi, let's catch up quickly." Zheng Jiayi nervously grabbed Xu Yiyi and unconsciously quickened her pace.
Xu Yiyi hummed softly, and suddenly felt cold in her palms. When I looked down, it was blood.
"Jiayi, what's wrong with your hand?" Xu Yiyi was startled, grabbed Zheng Jiayi's hand, and pulled it hard, pulling Zheng Jiayi's whole person over.
"What's wrong?" Zheng Jiayi was stunned for a moment, and quickly remembered that one of her and Wang Junzhong seemed to be injured. Could it be herself?
"What's wrong?" The others also stopped, some vigilantly observing the corpses behind them. Some people gathered around.
"Jiayi, when and how were you injured?" Xu Yiyi's expression was solemn, and she checked the back of Zheng Jiayi's palms and hands.
"No, I don't. I didn't feel any pain at all. Zheng Jiayi shook her head silently.
"Is there any water? Some of the blood had dried up, and the wound was indeed not visible. Xu Yiyi looked up and asked.
"Yes!" Zhou Jian untied his backpack and took out a bottle of mineral water.
Xu Yiyi twisted it hard, and the whole fell into Zheng Jiayi's palm.
"Shhhhhhhh Zheng Jiayi instinctively dodged the water and kept shaking her left hand. It hurts so much that I'm about to jump to my feet.
"Quick. Show me! Xu Yiyi randomly stuffed the mineral water bottle into the hands of the people around her, and pulled Zheng Jiayi's left hand. Then he commanded: "Pour out the water!" ”
"Wow-"
Zheng Jiayi instinctively withdrew her hand, but was helplessly grabbed by Xu Yiyi.
"Ouch, it hurts me." Zheng Jiayi finally couldn't help it. Because there is not only the baptism of cold water, but also the corners of Xu Yiyi's clothes that wipe the blood stains hard, so the rough material rubs on the injured hand, and Xu Yiyi, who is really lost, can get his hands on it.
"Hey, it's okay." Xu Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief. said: "A wooden thorn, the whole horizontal pierced into a thin blood vessel in the palm of your hand. ”
"Whew-" Not only Xu Yiyi, but Zheng Jiayi herself also breathed a sigh of relief. Although he kept shouting pain just now, he actually deliberately made a little noise because he was afraid of death.
Seeing that there was nothing wrong, the person in charge of guarding the back of the team said on the periphery of the team: "Let's go!" The corpses are catching up with us again! ”
"Let's go!" Xu Yiyi said, took back the mineral water bottle that had just washed Zheng Jiayi's wounds, drank all the rest of the water, and then threw it away.
Zheng Jiayi couldn't help but swallow her saliva when she saw it, and rolled her eyes in her heart: This guy doesn't know how to think about the injury first!
Xu Yiyi threw away the mineral water bottle and Zheng Jiayi changed positions, and took her right hand and moved forward quickly. I've just been delayed for a while, and now I'm going to distance myself from the walking corpse again. If someone is going to slow down the team, then the two girls are more likely.
I didn't look at the road in front of me for a while, and there seemed to be a few more uninvited guests on the flat ground that was originally unobstructed in addition to the team in front.
"Are those the villagers from here?" Zheng Jiayi and Xu Yiyi's hands tightened unconsciously.
"It's fine. Just a few walking corpses, the people in front can deal with it. Xu Yiyi said with relief.
"But are those really walking corpses? How can you still run and jump? Zheng Jiayi thought she was dazzled. But it's far away. She clearly felt that the oncoming people were very fast, running and jumping.
"Zhou Jian, who is in front?" Xu Yiyi turned his face sideways, but did not turn his head.
"Living!"
Zheng Jiayi couldn't help but turn her head and asked, "A living person?" Then why are they running to our side? Is there a walking corpse on the other side? ”
"Try to keep up!" As soon as the words fell, several boys behind him had already blown out like a gust of wind.
That's right, it blew out like the wind. Zheng Jiayi can still feel the breath brought by the gust of wind just now.
Zheng Jiayi just wanted to follow, but when she raised her foot, she found that she didn't step out because she was out of sync with Xu Yiyi. She glanced at Xu Yiyi suspiciously, and said, "Aren't we going to follow?" ”
"Follow!" Wang Jun behind him said in a panic: "There are so many walking corpses behind, can you still retreat if you don't go forward?" ”
Zheng Jiayi found out that there were no Wang Jun and Lin Wei among the boys who had just 'blew' out like a gust of wind.
"Let's go!" Xu Yiyi's mouth opened a few times before she spit out a word.
