Chapter 7: The Butcher and the Infection
A speeding police car ran out of gas and was forced to stop in a small town.
"Husband, cheer up" Shen Qiuran touched Lu Tianming's forehead, who was already delirious, and said in a panic.
Molly knocks off the head of a zombie with a rusty, curved iron rod picked up from the scrap pile, and as the rod breaks, a second zombie appears around the corner, followed by a third
"Damn, let's go!" Molly threw away the iron bar, shouted, ran back to the police car, and hurriedly dragged Lu Tianming out with Shen Qiuran as fast as possible, and ran to a small building in front with difficulty.
This small building has two floors, the first floor is a spacious hall, the second floor is a small room, here is a dance hall before the end of the world, it has long been a mess, but fortunately, the gate is intact, which can withstand the seven or eight zombies outside.
Molly listened to the banging of the door, and quickly helped Lu Tianming with Shen Qiuran to the sofa chair in a room on the second floor, poked his forehead, frowned, handed the kettle to Shen Qiuran and said: "It's not a way to go on like this, he is burning very badly now, you stay here to take care of him, I'll go out and look to see if I can find some fever medicine and food, it seems that I have to stay in the town tonight." ”
"Sister Molly, be careful," Shen Qiuran said worriedly.
Molly nodded, picked up a baseball bat from the table, flipped it in her hand, turned around and went down to the first floor, stood sideways on the side of the door, silently recited three numbers in her heart, and with one hand opened the lock of the door, letting the zombies in.
At the same time, Molly ran back up the stairs and stood on the second floor, the zombies smelled the smell, and one by one came up, Molly picked up the baseball bat and played a game of whack-a-mole, until the seven or eight zombies were piled up downstairs into a small mountain of carrion.
She made sure that the zombies were indeed dead, so she went out of the gate, closed the gate, and headed into the town to find fever reducers and supplies, and if she was lucky, she might find a car to drive.
The sky was once again shrouded in dark clouds, which made people feel suffocating even more than yesterday, which made Molly's heart have a little bad premonition, now there are zombies everywhere, here, it is indeed too quiet She carefully came to a pharmacy not far away, put the baseball bat at hand, and began to rummage through the shelves for various drugs, cephalosporin, azithromycin, amoxicillin, she didn't have time to think about it, took off her coat, wrapped all the anti-inflammatory drugs and antipyretics that could be used in her clothes, and didn't dare to delay for a moment, and came to a small supermarket opposite, took as much instant noodles and mineral water as possible and bundled them together, and hurried back to the small building.
Molly is a living map of Shenyang, and is most familiar with the extreme surroundings of Shenyang, every road and even roads that are not marked on the map, Molly can accurately say their names and where they lead. Therefore, all the way from Shenyang city to this town, almost all the relatively densely populated places were avoided, and even a small group of zombies were not seen much.
When she returned to the small building, it was already half an hour later, and she locked the door and came to the second floor.
"How's he doing?" Molly asked.
"It's getting hotter and hotter, Sister Jasmine, I'm afraid" Shen Qiuran cried loudly.
"Here, give him this to eat." Molly opened the package tied into her coat, took out the antipyretic medicine and handed it to Shen Qiuran.
"Ah, get out of here!" Lu Tianming, who had been in a semi-comatose state, suddenly jumped up at this time, pushed the two people away and ran out. The two of them hurriedly chased out, but they were slammed by Lu Tianming and blocked out of the door of the next room.
"Husband, open the door" Shen Qiuran cried bitterly and slapped on the door.
"Bastard", open the door, how hard did the old lady find these medicines for you, you don't even say thank you, you really have no conscience, open the door for me! Molly hammered the door with both hands and feet, but Lu Tianming never moved.
After about a minute or two, Lu Tianming said in a weak tone through the door: "I was bitten by a zombie, sooner or later I will become that thing, don't bother, run away quickly, Lao Tzu would rather starve to death here!" ”
"Lu Tianming, are you crazy? It's easy for you to say, what about Qiu Ran? Molly slammed the door and shouted, "You just left Qiu Ran alone? ”
"Molly, I ask you to do me a favor and take care of Qiu Ran for me"
"Fart, she's your woman, not mine, why should I? Get out of here! Molly kicked the door and yelled.
"Get out, get out, let Lao Tzu be quiet?" Lu Tianming's voice became weaker and weaker.
"Husband!"
"Lu Tianming!"
A plop came out of the door, and Lu Tianming didn't move anymore.
"Lu Tianming open the door!" Molly frantically knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside.
As Molly said this, a bolt of lightning lit up the hazy sky, and with a loud thunderclap, the rain poured down again, and the whole world fell into a blur again.
The arrival of heavy rain made the atmosphere of the town even more terrifying and weird, Molly always had a bad premonition in her heart, standing at the window and observing the surrounding situation, although the scale here is not large, but there are always two or three thousand resident population, and now, except for the previous few, not a single zombie has been seen, where have these zombies gone?
"Retreat to the building, retreat!" In the midst of the heavy rain, suddenly there was a shout from humans, and seven or eight heavily armed soldiers gradually ran out of the horizon in the distance.
"Help! With a scream, the soldier was torn in half, blood mixed with internal organs sprayed in the heavy rain, mixed with the rain, and from behind him, a huge figure jumped out.
Molly's eyes widened, and she almost screamed, the thing that killed the soldier was similar in appearance to the monster they had encountered in the neighborhood before, except that it was relatively slow, and its right hand was no longer a vine, but a bone armor like a Mongolian scimitar.
"Xiao Wang, hurry up to the commanding heights in the north, let's attract its attention!" One of the people running on the left immediately shouted.
"Okay, ah" poof, Xiao Wang was pierced by the monster's bone armor, and with a little force from the monster, Xiao Wang became a pile of minced flesh and fell all over the place. A sniper rifle was thrown out, drew a parabola, and fell through the window of Lu Tianming's locked room.
Just a few seconds when Molly was stunned, a brutal massacre with disparity in strength had been staged downstairs, the monster waved its right hand like a butcher, and everywhere it passed, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and in an instant, the seven or eight heavily armed soldiers were all wiped out by the butcher
The butcher seemed to notice that there were still living people in the small building, and raised his right hand to shoot at the small building.
Molly jumped back, looking at the half-cut window, cold sweat broke out, and Shen Qiuran was already so frightened that he even forgot to shout.
"It seems that we can't kill this monster, we can't get out!" Molly kept her balance in the tremor of the building, took the baseball bat in her hand, and said to Shen Qiuran, "It seems that I have to go next door!" ”
"You're going to kill Tianming, aren't you?" Shen Qiuran grabbed her, picked up a paper cutter from the table and put it on Molly's neck, shouting, "If you dare to kill him, I will kill you!" ”
"Qiu Ran, Tianming has not moved for a long time, it is estimated that it has been" Molly said helplessly: "You listen to me, no one wants to kill him, but if he really becomes a zombie, we must"
"Squeak!" When the monster frantically attacked Xiaolou, the door next door opened, and Lu Tianming slowly walked out of it, rushing towards two people, and a normal person didn't seem to walk so slowly.
Molly found the right time, pushed Shen Qiuran away, picked up the baseball bat and slammed it at Lu Tianming's head.
"Husband, Sister Jasmine, don't!" Shen Qiuran was a step slower, and he didn't have time to pick up the paper cutter when he fell, so he hurriedly rushed up with his bare hands, intending to stop Molly.
"Boom!" As Xiao Lou collapsed most of the time in the butcher's attack, Lu Tianming's slow body, whose upper body was naked, suddenly turned sideways, dodged Molly's attack, and fell to the ground.
A bolt of lightning pierced the night sky, and with the arrival of a thunderclap, the frightened Lu Tianming on the ground shouted: "Molly, you are blind, and you dare to beat Lao Tzu if you don't look at it, where the does Lao Tzu look like a zombie?" Have you ever seen a zombie shirtless? ! ”
Listening to Lu Tianming's thinking and logic are very clear, and the words are also real, and it is still the ruffian spirit that hangs dirty words on his lips at every turn, Shen Qiuran was immediately extremely excited, and pounced and shouted one after another: "Husband, husband, husband, you're fine, it's so good!" ”
Molly was surprised and delighted, staring at him for several seconds before asking, "Aren't you infected?" What the hell is going on? ”
Lu Tianming looked at his whole body, glared at Molly and said, "How the fuck do I know, I feel like I've slept and feel much more comfortable." ”
Lu Tianming's recovery allowed the two of them to temporarily walk out of the shadow of the butcher's horror, but as Lu Tianming's ruffian anger was revealed, Molly cut and was pulled back to reality from a momentary joy.
"What the hell?" Lu Tianming looked at the butcher's bone armor flashing on the windowsill, and shouted in surprise: "Why is it another monster, Molly, how can you follow this thing everywhere you go, this ghost thing shouldn't have a crush on you?"
"Damn, get out of the way, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you!" Molly hurriedly came to Lu Tianming's room just now, grabbed a sniper rifle from the ground, and put it on the window edge.
