Chapter 9: The supermarket of the end does not cost money

It's too hot.

This kind of heat, if you are not in it, I am afraid that it is unimaginable at all - the sweat has just been revealed, and it immediately evaporates and dries, followed by another layer of hot sweat. Lin Sanjiu only felt that his body system seemed to have become an old dog that was struggling to breathe, struggling for his life in the hot air.

In comparison, Luzer looks much stronger. Although he was carrying Marcer on his back, no matter how he looked at it, he was more relaxed than Lin Sanjiu. He saw it himself, and asked aloud, "Hey, you...... Physical strength...... Is it? ”

"What?" Lin Sanjiu also raised his voice and shouted. The sound of the car engines around her was so loud that Lu Ze was just on the other side of the car, and she couldn't hear it clearly.

"I said—" Lu Ze walked around the car in a few steps. Marser on his back was taller than him, with both feet on the ground. "Haven't you been physically strengthened?"

Just now she spit out two words, Lin Sanjiu only felt that her tongue was dry, all the way into her throat, she didn't dare to speak again, so she had to shake her head and signal Lu Ze to hurry up. Luzer looked surprised, as if he wanted to say something—but what time was it to gossip? He nodded his head and began to make his way through the traffic that was constantly spewing hot air outward.

Every few steps, Lin Sanjiu had to raise his hand to wipe his eyelids. She was sweating so much that it was dripping into her eyes, so hot and uncomfortable that she couldn't help but wonder to herself: Could it be that "heat adaptation" is time-sensitive? Otherwise, why didn't she get so hot at first, but now she is sweating like rain?

If this continues, can you still rush to the supermarket before dehydration?

In silence, the two looked around - there was a guardrail in the middle of the road, which was meant to divide the traffic in two directions. But when the crisis comes, there are too few people who can obey the traffic rules, and at this time, the cars on both sides are entangled horizontally, some going and some going in the wrong direction......

If you climb over the guardrail, not only is it a burden on your body and it is inconvenient to carry Marser on your back, but it also means you have to go through another hot traffic - but it can be really fatal.

Coincidentally, both of them walked towards the end of the car dragon.

The driver of the Land Rover is a thin woman; When the two passed, Lin Sanjiu found that she had collapsed in the car, her eye sockets were sunken, and she didn't know what to do - I am afraid that she was dehydrated all the way, and she had already shown symptoms of dehydration and unconsciousness, so she crashed into the car in a panic.

In the car that was hit by the Land Rover and destroyed the front of the car, the air conditioner can be imagined to be no longer usable; However, thanks to the previous air conditioning, the middle-aged fat man who was driving was miraculously still awake, and from the moment the two got out of the car, he stared at them tightly.

As Lin Sanjiu passed by his car, the fat man slammed the window several times at her.

To be honest, Lin Sanjiu is not a hard-hearted person; But at this time, she was about to heat up, and it was still a question of how long she could last, and she couldn't squeeze out any extra compassion, so she only frowned and glanced at the fat man.

Through the glass, the fat man's voice was indistinct: "Outside...... Hot...... Can you go? ”

Lin Sanjiu probably guessed what he meant, shook his head, and walked away. The heat from the car made the already bad situation even more unbearable, and she couldn't stand in front of the car and make small talk to strangers.

Seeing that she was leaving, the fat man suddenly became anxious, and pushed the car door: "I'm talking to you, you stop—aren't you just walking outside, I'm ......" Before his words fell, he suddenly let out a piercing scream.

The scream was filled with a tingling sense of pain, even drowning out the sound of the engine. Lin Sanjiu hurriedly turned around and found that the fat man's exposed skin had burst into strings of blisters without being injured.

The bright red and blood-soaked blisters squeezed and exploded on his skin, and the fat man's face and hands were as if they had been splashed with boiling water, and pieces of broken skin burst out shockingly. His screams of pain continued, Lin Sanjiu couldn't hold back any longer, helped Lu Ze to stabilize his body with one hand, raised his foot, kicked him back into the car with one kick, and then slammed the door shut.

The screams of pain were much lighter all of a sudden, and seeing that the fat man's burns didn't seem to continue, Lin Sanjiu took a breath and exchanged a shocked look with Lu Ze.

It turned out that it was not that her ability had decreased, but that the temperature outside had risen to a terrifying level: as soon as ordinary people were exposed to such air, they actually had a scalding reaction directly - Lin Sanjiu couldn't imagine the current temperature.

"Don't think about it, let's go!" Lu Ze, who has always talked a lot, also began to cherish words like gold.

The two of them hurriedly walked out of the car and left hundreds of engines, and then they felt a little better. After crossing the road and walking onto the sidewalk planted with trees, the two did not dare to delay and rushed straight in the direction of the shopping center.

The leaves of the trees on the side of the road had long since lost their green, and they were scorched and dried up, curled up under the trees. From time to time, Lin Sanjiu would see a few people lying motionless on the ground - every inch of his skin was burned, and his body had long since stopped undulating.

No matter how strong she was, it was the first time Lin Sanjiu had seen so many dead people—she swallowed with some fear and disgust, but her mouth was dry and there was no water at all.

"Let's drink the rest of the Coke!" Lu Ze's hoarse voice came from behind him.

Lin Sanjiu thought about it and took out the last can of Coke. There is water in the supermarket, and there is no need to risk saving this outside. In the past, I couldn't drink all the Coke in one go, but at this time I felt that it was too little-the two of them didn't care whether it was good or not, so they hurriedly drank the hot Coke half and half and half of me.

Throwing away the jars and walking for a while, the main entrance of the mall gradually revealed a clear appearance.

The fountain pool, which never ceased to end, was dry and cracked, as if it had never been wet. However, the few corpses lying face down in the pool suggest that the fountain was once their last ray of hope. After death, the corpse whose skin was burned again fell to the ground everywhere, shocking.

Lin Sanjiu lowered his head, carefully avoiding the corpses on the ground, and moved forward one by one. Occasionally, when he looked up, he found that Lu Ze was carrying Marser on his back, and he had walked in front of him at some point.

Just wondering how he could go so fast, there was an answer at once: Luzer didn't care at all, stepped on the back of a young mother-like corpse, and walked into the door of the mall as if he were walking on the ground.

Lin Sanjiu hurriedly hurried a few steps, chased after him, and slapped him on the arm in annoyance: "Can't you be respectful to the deceased?" Before he could say a word, his throat ached.

Lu Ze was taken aback by her, his expression was faintly confused, and then he reacted: "Oh, oh! That's it...... I'm sorry, but I've seen so many dead people, I'm probably already a little numb. He embarrassedly showed a rabbit tooth: "I just started, and I was the same as you." ”

Seeing that he had a good attitude, Lin Sanjiu didn't say anything even if he was uncomfortable, so he changed the topic: "Go over there, there's an elevator down!" ”

Lu Ze nodded, then looked up at the shopping mall, and praised softly: "It's really beautiful here...... didn't stop, and followed Lin Sanjiu all the way towards the supermarket.

It is said that the mall was designed by a famous French architect - a five-storey building with an empty middle and dense tropical plants. Probably because of the split floors, the tropical trees grow high up to the elevator on the fifth floor, and when you walk here, you feel like you are walking in a primeval forest.

But there's no time to appreciate it now. Lin Sanjiu glanced at it quickly, only to feel that something was wrong, and he couldn't say why for a while, so he had to shake his head and rush off the elevator.

When they saw the supermarket, they both couldn't help but take a breath.

The situation was worse than Lin Sanjiu had expected—she was definitely not the only one who could think of this supermarket; But the situation in the supermarket still made her feel unexpected.

When it heated up unusually well last night, the supermarket was clearly open, so it was packed. Of course, these people were unable to move or speak at this time, and they fell to the ground and turned into corpses. It was as if the chaos of last night had been frozen: empty bottles rolling down everywhere, bottles of mineral water, bottles of drinks...... The beige floor was splattered with traces of dried juice drinks. The last bottles of water lay in a mess on the drink racks as if they had been ransacked, and several dead people on the ground were holding a pile of drinks in their arms.

Most staggeringly, there was a cashier whose cause of death was clearly not dehydration - the back of her head was deeply deflated, and the cash register in front of her was wide open and empty.

Lu Ze sighed twice: "The person who robbed the money should be stupid now!" ”

"If only he wasn't dead." Lin Sanjiu had already lost his tongue, took out a bottle of water from the arms of a corpse at the door, drank half a bottle without hesitation, and handed it to Lu Ze.

It seems that although the supermarket is full of corpses and has gone through some chaos, at least for the time being, it should not be a problem to maintain the drinking water for three people. Lu Ze was already tired after carrying Marser on his back all the way, and put her on the floor and muttered: "Obviously not a real flesh and blood, why is it still so heavy......"

Lin Sanjiu sat on a cashier where there were no dead people resting, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "I wanted to ask a long time ago...... Before, Marser was here, and I wasn't embarrassed. What does that depraved species mean when she says she's fake flesh and blood? ”

"She's my own personality, and in a sense she's an independent person." Lu Ze said as he drank water, "However, her true Cheng dù depends on my ability...... Now I'm incompetent, so there's a lot of stuff in Mather that's not ...... Uh, perfect. ”

Lin Sanjiu nodded and didn't ask any more. The two of them rehydrated, rested for a while, and then felt that the empty stomach and intestines were uncomfortable for a while.

"Shall we go to the food court?" Lin Sanjiu said.

"Wait." Lu Ze stopped her, looked around, and asked, "Is there anything here that can be used as a weapon?" ”
