Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Fox's Tail

When the asphalt road is finished, the convoy turns to a T-shaped intersection on the dirt road, the sky has darkened, this road is very difficult to walk, Long 15 in Lu Tianming's repeated instructions, the vehicle at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour slowly rubbed forward, under the mountain on their left, is spread more than ten kilometers of five or six villages, behind is the road that may be turned out by the zombie army at any time, God knows if there will be a zombie army suddenly appeared, although this is the first night march, people are a little frightened and panicked, But Lu Tianming still had to bite the bullet and continue, because at present, only by reaching Ganlu Temple could they get temporary safety and respite.

As the truck turned into the dirt road on the right and bumped up along the mountain spring for about ten minutes, Sun Dianxian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's finally here, and the front is it." ”

The night in the mountains is worse than in the city, and by seven o'clock it is so dark that you need to walk carefully. Long 15 stopped the truck steadily, everyone jumped out of the car to turn on the flashlight to check, a deserted temple came into view, the plaque on the gate has been crumbling on the door frame, a gust of wind blows, may blow it to the ground, where the beam of the flashlight sweeps, you can clearly see the extremely dense spider webs and mottled red broken rubble, this temple has been abandoned for at least ten years.

Lu Tianming stood on the edge of the temple, holding a telescope to look around, the terrain here is exactly the same as what Sun Dianxian described, there are cliffs on three sides, and only one side can enter and exit, which is the road when they came. He instructed Long Fifteen to put the truck across the gate, and the shooting hole on one side was facing the road where they came, so as to ensure that the movement at the entrance was discovered at the first time: "There is no trace of the zombies found for the time being, and everyone is tired, let's camp here for the time being recently, but we can't relax, every night in a group of three people, responsible for taking turns to keep vigil, changing shifts every two hours, and notifying everyone as soon as there is any situation." ”

"Wang Hao, Leizi, how is our ammunition?" Lu Tianming sat down next to the bonfire and asked in a low voice, this is already the last shift, and in two hours, it will be dawn.

"Hey, I'm not optimistic, I've almost exhausted our old bottom from the first defense area of the resettlement camp before, and the remaining ammunition is still good for dealing with one or two small-scale hundred zombies, if thousands of zombies gather together, I'm afraid we all have to go to the underworld to report" Wang Hao replied, he suddenly remembered his dead comrades, his eyes showed sadness, but he immediately realized his gaffe, quickly suppressed his emotions, quickly sniffed, calmed down for two seconds and asked: "Hey, captain, I have a question I don't understand." How long are we going to stay in this barren mountain? ”

Lu Tianming shook his head and said: "I don't know about this, but judging from the direction of the zombies we encountered on the mountain road just now, at least one thing is certain, they are attracted by the movement of the resettlement camp, and they gather to the resettlement camp from various places, so if we rush north now, in case we encounter an army of zombies on the way, the consequences do not need to be said to you, you also know, I plan to wait until the zombies start to flow back before going out from here, at that time the zombies are the most scattered, and we and the zombies are traveling in the same direction, They are definitely not as fast as us, so we can try to avoid encountering a large number of zombies on the way. But this is just a preliminary inference of mine, the specific situation, wait until dawn, let's go to those villages to see the movement should be able to figure it out, if there are still a large number of zombies, it means that my inference is wrong, otherwise, it is correct, let's draw up a detailed plan. ”

"Listening to you say that, it seems to make some sense." Wang Hao and Xue Lei glanced at each other, nodded one after another, and gave a thumbs up to Lu Tianming.

"However, we can't be happy too early, there is still a big question that needs to be clarified as soon as possible, otherwise it will be very troublesome" Lu Tianming glanced back at the gate of the temple, beckoned, let Wang Hao and Xue Lei lean in, and said in a low voice: "Don't you think Sun Dianxian and his party are very strange." ”

"I really didn't pay attention to this, captain, you have too much heart" Wang Hao frowned and said: "When I escaped from Shandong with the soldiers, although I saw a lot of human beings doing anything to survive, but we can't meet a survivor and be suspicious, I don't think they are like bad people, can you lead us to such a hidden place, no one is a fool, Leizi, do you say no?" ”

Xue Lei nodded: "Yes, captain, take 10,000 steps back, Sun Dianxian and the others took the initiative to ask to stand on the first shift, if they had other intentions, we would have been finished long ago." ”

"Who knows what kind of medicine they sell in their gourd, think about it carefully, when their truck blocked the road, the front of the car was obviously facing the south, that is, the direction we came, but the Ganlu Temple was in the north, Sun Dianxian said more than once when he was talking that they were eager to go to the Ganlu Temple, he was very familiar with the road at all, so it was absolutely impossible to walk, let alone go wrong, in this way, it really makes me suspect that they have other plans, this Ganlu Temple is probably not so simple" Lu Tianming propped his elbows on his knees, holding his chin with his palm, as if thinking about something.

"Huh? If you think about it carefully, you can really be the captain, such a small detail can be discovered by you" Xue Lei cast an approving look. Lu Tianming smiled, thinking to himself, if Shen Qiuran hadn't reminded him, relying on him, I am afraid that he would never have cared about this detail for the rest of his life.

"Damn, we saved them, but these grandsons want to beat us up, it's really not a fucking thing, I have to clean them up first, and let them honestly explain what they want to do." Wang Hao rolled up his sleeves and walked to the temple angrily.

"Damn, don't be impulsive." Lu Tianming hurriedly grabbed him, put his index finger on his lips and widened his eyes, and let out a breath in his mouth: "All this is just our inference, and there is no evidence, the disaster broke out for so long, and the people who can live until now have no bad seeds, so don't startle the snake first, if they are foxes, sooner or later they will have to show their tails." ”

The last two hours, in the conversation of several people, passed in the midst of the conversation of several people, and the sun, which was supposed to rise over the horizon, was shrouded in dark clouds, which, although the clouds brought a cool breath to Midsummer, made everyone feel a little suffocated and weird, and a new day could be a new hope, or it could be a trumpet of death. Lu Tianming stood up, distributed the food in the car to everyone, led Wang Hao and Long Fifteen to stuff two backpacks with guns and ammunition, and Wang Hao carried one on his back, and handed over four or five sabers to Long Fifteen, transported all the remaining weapons out of the car, gathered them together, looked back at Xue Lei who was in surprise and said: "Leizi, you lead the brothers to take care of the family and take care of your sister-in-law, she is going to have an accident, I picked your skin, haha, I'll take Fifteen and your squad leader to the town to check on the situation. ”

Xue Lei readily agreed: "Captain, don't worry, I promise to complete the task." ”

"Let's go, try to get back by noon." Lu Tianming looked at the sky and said.

"Wait, you're going to the village?" Sun Dianxian ran out of the temple in a panic and stopped: "I'll show you the way, I'm a local, and I'm familiar with everything here." ”

"No, we'll just go see if we can find something useful, and we'll be back in a while." Lu Tianming smiled and led Wang Hao and Long Fifteen forward for a distance.

"Before the disaster, there were three or four hundred thousand people there, and now it is estimated that they have all become zombies, you don't want to die, so many supplies are not enough, do you have to run around? Listen to me, don't go. Sun Dianxian shouted.

"What are you excited about?" Lu Tianming's expression flashed a subtle change, and he asked, "You tried your best to stop us, could it be that there is some unsavory secret in that village?" ”

"No, I'm just worried about your safety, after all, you saved the lives of me and my companions" Sun Dianxian took out a pistol from the weapon pile and pinned it into his waist, and said: "Or I'll take you there, I know you don't trust us, and everyone is the same as you, after all, everyone is not familiar with each other, but you can rest assured, I won't mess around, my companion's life is still in your hands, what are you worried about?"

Lu Tianming thought that what Sun Dianxian said also made some sense, so he couldn't help waving his hand, and said casually: "You are too careful, if I don't trust you, I won't save your life, you don't trust us, just ask my brothers, Lao Tzu is not saved by everyone, okay, lead the way, let's go early and return early." ”

The four men walked through the jungle, clattering the leaves and broken branches on the ground, and walked for about twenty minutes until they finally came to the previous T-junction and followed another road into the village.

The surroundings were quiet, there was no trace of a large group of zombies at all, only occasionally there would be two or three zombies, all of whom had their heads cut off by Long Fifteen, and with the fall of the twenty-second zombie, several people stopped, here is a straight street, lined with a variety of shops, it seems, before the end of the world, this should be a bazaar, but now it is a mess, it looks like a tourist attraction that has been ruined.

"Well, my inference doesn't seem to be wrong" Lu Tianming said secretly in his heart, he felt a little excited, although the information has been confirmed, but you can't come here in vain, you have to bring back something useful, Lu Tianming thought, came to the front of a shop, this is a shop that sells clothing, all kinds of clothes are hung all over the house, dazzling, the clothes here are all this year's trendy styles, Lu Tianming really can't imagine being in such a remote village, There is such a fashionable clothing store, he subconsciously looked at the clothes on his body, which were still snatched from the people of the Black Spider Team before, otherwise, he must still be like a hooligan at this moment, holding a cigarette in his mouth, walking around the streets of the end with a big arm and smelling the smell of his clothes, the smell of sweat and gunpowder are mixed together, which is even worse than the smell of zombies

He grabbed a few XL number clothes from the shelves, grabbed a pair of shorts casually, quickly changed them, they fit very well, turned his head and smiled at the three people who were already stupid outside the door: "How is it, is my brother handsome?" ”

Long Fifteen and Wang Hao came back to their senses from their surprise, glanced at each other, and rushed into the clothing store with a shout, grabbed a few paper bags, and stuffed all the clothes, pants, shoes, and socks that could be seen in the field of vision, carried them on their shoulders, and swaggered out of the door, like two robbers.

"Hurry up, it won't be easy to do when it rains later." Sun Dianxian stood at the door and whispered, it seemed that this free sweeping operation that did not cost money had no temptation to him at all.

", fifteen, do you see if my brother said that sooner or later there will be one day!" Lu Tianming pointed not far away and shouted excitedly, about a hundred meters ahead, there was a Lamborghini parked!

"Holy, love car, I'm here!" Long Fifteen rushed over at once, circled around the car, and turned around and shouted: "Boss, the new one, you're rich, hahaha!" ”

Lu Tianming nodded, ignoring the excitement and madness of the reunion between Long Fifteen and Lamborghini, his eyes stopped at a shop next to the car, which was a gold store, the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a smile, slowly walked into the store, took out a platinum necklace from the counter and looked at it for a moment, put it in his backpack with satisfaction, turned back to Wang Hao and said: "Squad leader Wang, you go to the neighborhood to see if there is a usable vehicle, if there is a car, everything will be easy to do, we can supplement some other materials that can be used here." ”

"Don't move, don't be a brute, or I'll blow your head off!" Just as Wang Hao walked out of the gate, a hard thing pressed against Lu Tianming's temple, and all his weapons and ammunition were ripped off and thrown on the ground.

"Who the hell are you?" Lu Tianming frowned, what he was most worried about had happened, Sun Dianxian and his party really had a problem

"You don't need to know, you just need to know that you're not far from death." Sun Dianxian's arm was forced, and Lu Tianming's eyes turned black and he lost consciousness.
