10. Chapter X
It wasn't until dusk that the two walked out of the forest.
Moved the car out of the space, and the two of them began to rush to the night road, and it was probably impossible to sleep tonight.
It wasn't until late at night that the two saw a lot of terraced rice fields on the side of the road, since there were terraced fields, then there should be a village nearby, and the two immediately cheered up, because there were not only villages around the terraces, but also zombies.
"Let's rest here tonight, and enter the village tomorrow" Luo Jiujiu saw the village with scattered houses in front of him through the moonlight.
"Well, you drove for a day, sleep, I'll keep vigil" Tian Ran held the long knife in her arms and said to Luo Jiujiu, she was almost rested on the road.
"Well, I'm asleep, something calls me" Luo Jiujiu took the coat from the seat in the back and covered his body, and fell asleep as soon as his eyes were closed, there were so many things today, she was already sleepy.
After Luo Jiujiu fell asleep, Tian Ran got out of the car and inspected it, and after solving the few zombies he found, he returned to the car, and the danger around him was not very big, so he sank his consciousness into the space and cultivated.
When Luo Jiujiu woke up in the morning, he saw Tian Ran on the side with her eyes closed, thinking that she was asleep, so he picked up the coat on his body and planned to cover her.
"You're awake, then let's go into the village, I went to the front to take a look at it when it was just dawn, it's a small village, there are only about twenty families, we should be able to clean it up" Tian Ran's eyes were clear, and he didn't want to fall asleep.
"Okay, let's go" Luo Jiujiu patted his cheek, stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the village, the path into the village was just enough for a car to drive by, and as soon as the car left, the pebbles on the road made a sound of rubbing against the tires.
"Strange, how can there be no zombies?" Tian Ran and Luo Jiujiu immediately became vigilant in their hearts, their car was parked at the entrance of the village, but they couldn't see a zombie, and there were no zombies around, so there was only one reason, the zombies here had been cleaned up.
"Stop, who are you, how did you come to our village?" Just as the two were about to step into the village, seven or eight villagers poured out of the two surrounding houses, each with a hoe in his hand.
"Uncle, our sisters are passing by the village and want to find a place to rest" Luo Jiujiu walked towards the middle-aged uncle standing in the middle.
"Uncle Liu, let's kick them out, maybe they will lead monsters in when they come in" A woman on the side looked at the two of them with a dissatisfied expression.
But as soon as she said this, several people around her also stared at the two of them with vigilant eyes, for fear that they would really attract monsters in.
"Don't worry, we didn't encounter any zombies on the road, so naturally we won't bring them," Luo Jiujiu waved his hand and said to everyone.
"Yes, uncle, we are just looking for a place to rest for a few days, and we won't cause you any trouble, please rest assured" Tian Ran also said to Uncle Liu, it seems that this person is the manager of this village.
Uncle Liu glanced at them, thinking about the authenticity of what they said, if it was really just a few days of rest, if it was really a little cruel to drive the two little girls out.
"Everyone be quiet," Uncle Liu said to the people behind.
"Since it's just a few days off, let's come in, but we don't provide any food," Uncle Liu said to the two, this is a rare outsider, he needs to know about the situation outside, I don't know how his son is outside.
"Thank you, Uncle Liu, thank you, don't worry, we won't cause you any trouble" Tian Ran said to everyone with a simple smile.
"You just live in this house, Lao Liu Tou has become a man-eating monster, and his children have not come back, if you are not afraid, you can live here" Uncle Liu pointed to the good house in front of him and said, this house is also good in the village, if it weren't for the bad luck of the villagers who disliked the dead inside, someone would have moved in a long time ago, how could they get their turn.
"Okay, thank you Uncle Liu, then let's go in and clean up" After Tian Ran thanked Uncle Liu, he picked up the key and went to open the gate, as for Luo Jiujiu, he went to drive the car over, and the yard inside could be parked.
"Let's all disperse, do your own thing," Uncle Liu finished speaking, and the surrounding villagers scattered, but the eyes that looked at the two of them were still vigilant.
"You're from outside, what's going on outside?" After everyone left, Uncle Liu asked.
"Many big cities have fallen, but most of the people who have not become zombies have been evacuated with the army, and they should go to the base prepared by the government," Tian Ran said to Uncle Liu, Uncle Liu would ask, presumably his daughter did not come back from outside, I hope they are okay.
"That's it" When he said the front, Uncle Liu's eyes dimmed, but when he heard that there was an army to protect and evacuate, his eyes lit up again, he hoped that his son was okay, he had left with the army, no matter where he was, as long as he was safe.
After entering the house, the two found that in addition to daily necessities, the rice oil in the kitchen was gone, not even a roll of toilet paper was left, and the two thought that if Uncle Liu hadn't kept the key, I'm afraid that other things would have been almost gone.
But this house is really good, with high walls and iron gates, if there are zombies coming in, it can definitely keep the zombies out, and it's a pity that the people in the village didn't move in.
However, if the villagers moved in, then there would be nothing to do with them, but on second thought, in the village, everyone has their own home, and when it is already safe, who will move into such a dead man's obscure house.
Since moving into this house, the two have often seen villagers hanging at their door, and after getting along for a few days, the two also have a general understanding of this village.
Uncle Liu is a veteran, so after the outbreak of the zombie virus, he immediately organized manpower to avoid the situation from worsening, and under his leadership, the villagers worked together to kill the villagers who had become zombies and directly cremate them.
Therefore, the loss in the village is not large, and now there are patrols every day, as long as zombies are found in the surrounding area, the villagers will go to exterminate them, and after leaving this village, there are almost no villages in a radius of hundreds of miles, so this village can be peaceful.
There are still twelve families left in the village, all the old and the young add up to about thirty-six people, except for the old and the young, all the others have to take turns patrolling the edge of the village, and now the two live in the village, so every other week, the two have to go out to patrol.
When the two of them were on their second patrol, it suddenly rained heavily in the sky, and the rain was very heavy, so the two went back directly and observed the outside from the roof, and the villagers also understood that with such a heavy rain, people had to get gonorrhea outside, and the roof of the house where they lived was also high, so it was not a problem to look outside the village.
As this rainstorm fell, the temperature began to drop suddenly.
"Uncle Liu, we have something to discuss with you" The two came to Uncle Liu's house and said the purpose of this time.
"You said you were going to find supplies?" Uncle Liu looked at the two of them in disbelief, but after thinking about it, he understood that they were outsiders, and the food they brought must have almost run out.
"If the food is not enough, you can tell me, I still have it in the warehouse, you can take some there" Uncle Liu said to the two, going out to find food on such a cold day, it is unknown whether you can come back safely!
"Uncle Liu, I think this cooling is unusual, we can't always rely on you to help, we just want to ask, who has a truck, want to borrow it from them, of course, if someone is willing to go out with us, then we won't refuse" Tian Ran looked at Uncle Liu and said, this is also the truth, they must go outside to get some supplies back, otherwise sooner or later the villagers will find out that they are different.
"Since you said so, then let me ask everyone to see if they are willing to go with you" Uncle Liu called Aunt Liu after speaking, Aunt Liu glanced at the two of them, picked up the umbrella and went out.
"Thank you, Uncle Liu," the two smiled and thanked Uncle Liu.
Half an hour later, almost all the remaining villagers in the village came to Uncle Liu's house, and when they heard that Tian Ran and the others were going out to look for supplies, most of them refused.
"I'll go with you, I have a car at home, I see that you are also capable people, I hope you can help me go to the pharmacy to get some medicine, my child was caught in the rain on the day of the rainstorm, this will be a high fever has not gone away" A swarthy man said, if it wasn't really no way, he didn't want to take the risk.
"Da Zhuang, are you sure?" Uncle Liu looked at the big man and said.
"Yes, Uncle Liu" The man nodded, his eyes swept over the surrounding villagers, if it wasn't for the two women's proposal, he would have gone out.
"Okay, we'll help you get medicine" Tian Ran glanced at the evasive villagers around him, it seemed that they had medicine at home, but they were reluctant to take it out.
"Is there anyone else going with you?" Tian Ran glanced around and asked.
"Da Zhuang, I'll go with you" Another man stood up, when the man stood up, the woman next to him pulled, but finally let go, the children of the Da Zhuang family they also like it, they can't just watch him disappear.
"Da Zhuang, you don't need to say it, Xiao Zhuang is also my son, I won't just watch him get sick like this" The man said to Da Zhuang.
"Huzi, thank you" Da Zhuang had tears in his eyes, he didn't expect that Huzi would stand up to help him in this situation.
"Then it's decided, gather at the entrance of the village early tomorrow morning, Uncle Liu, let's go back and pack up, and go first" Tian Ran said to Uncle Liu with a smile, and gave him a reassuring look when he passed by Da Zhuang.
"Okay, let's all disperse" Uncle Liu sighed and said to everyone.
Da Zhuang looked at the people who left with burning eyes, and everyone couldn't help but be panicked by that look, so they accelerated the pace of leaving.
This night, the daughter-in-law of the Da Zhuang family and the Huzi family shed tears all night, until their car left the next day, and the worry in their eyes did not fall, but worse.
"Xiao Zhuang, let's go back, Xiao Zhuang is still at home" Huzi's daughter-in-law finally glanced in the direction of the road, and then helped Da Zhuang's daughter-in-law go home.
