Chapter 32 (II) "Shouting" the Building

After Tang's proposal was approved by everyone, everyone began to split up, find some food and water, and then take turns to rest, and only in the evening did they move towards the mortar position.

Because they are in the west, when the sun goes down, they can move forward with their backlight. At that time, the glare of the setting sun would provide them with excellent cover, and all enemies directly on the opposite side would be backlit, and the ambush would be easy to spot in the sunlight.

"Crazy Gu, let's go find something to eat." Tang Shuxing put down the dragon blade, moved the furniture and the like at the staircase slightly, and then went downstairs with his sword, Gu Huaiyi followed closely behind, and showed a strange smile to the others as he left.

"Xing Er, this kid ......" Tian Yehan shook his head, knowing that Tang Shu had something to ask Gu Huaiyi alone.

Ji Kefeng was silent, he didn't want to get involved in anything related to Gu Huaiyi now, so as not to cause conflicts. Fortunately, Tian Yehan came, and he could be regarded as a companion.

Tang Shuxing led Gu Huaiyi into the basement, closed the door with his hand, and then looked at Gu Huaiyi and said, "Put down the knife and turn your back to me." ”

"Okay-" Gu Huaiyi did it one by one, then turned around, took off his clothes, and then raised his hands high.

Tang Shuxing pulled out the dagger, carefully cut Gu Huaiyi's bandage, and then looked at the wound on his back, which should have been blurred with flesh and blood, but now it had healed. The facts presented in front of him confirmed his conjecture - there was really something wrong with Gu Huaiyi's body.

"What did your father do to you?" Tang Shuxing didn't go around in circles, and asked directly. Because from the time he met Gu Huaiyi. I think this very young guy has a lot of cruel experiences, not to mention, and he has skills and abilities that are different from ordinary people, which is very strange in itself.

After Gu Huaiyi personally admitted that his father Gu Yunqing was the chief researcher of Yaojin, Tang Shuxing began to wonder if Gu Huaiyi had been reformed by his father a long time ago, otherwise he would say that as long as he found Gu Yunqing, he might be able to restore Tang Shuxing to his past appearance.

Gu Huaiyi raised his hands high, looked sideways at Tang Shuxing behind him, and said with a smile: "Why do you say that?" ”

"Knowingly?" Tang Shuxing walked around to him, "Even I, a mutant, can't recover from my injuries so quickly. You haven't even activated the corpse. Why do you have such amazing resilience? Also, a few hours ago, Wei Daxun saw it clearly and said that you escaped from the minefield at a strange speed. This can already be explained, right? ”

"I'm not a corpse." Gu Huaiyi began to get dressed.

"And what are you?" Tang Shu asked.

"I am who I am." Gu Huaiyi still smiled. Then open the basement door and leave. Sitting on the top of the stairs, he looked at Tang Shuxing who came and said, "You go and rest." People need to rest, even if you are a mutant, you are still half a person. ”

"What about you?" Tang Shuxing looked at the helpless expression on Gu Huaiyi's face, and felt that there was something in his words.

"I'm not human." Gu Huaiyi shook his head, "No, I'm not human at all, but I've been looking for a way to restore myself to my original self." ”

"Tell me?" Tang Shuxing frowned and asked.

"It's not the time." Gu Huaiyi refused simply and clearly, and then leaned to the side, there was something in his eyes that Tang Shuxing had never seen before, lonely? Disappointed? Despair? Helpless? In short, it seems to have everything.

"Okay, you rest with me." Tang Shuxing sat on Gu Huaiyi's side with Long Lin Blade in his arms, "It's not me who accompanies you, it's you who accompanies me." ”

"Thank you." Gu Huaiyi closed his eyes and rested, although he was not sleepy at all, he didn't know what it meant to be sleepy.

A whole day passed, seven or eight hours made them feel like they were living like a year, during which the people in the consulate opposite did not bring them any news at all, except for the howls of the walking corpses and the sound of heavy footsteps, there were scattered gunshots, and the sound of mortar shells exploding from time to time.

The sun finally hung in the sky, and the walking corpses on the streets began to slow down, and many of them began to speed up and walk in the direction of the sun, as if chasing the light behind the sun - it is ironic that normal humans should be most afraid of the coming of darkness, but now, it is this group of walking dead who are chasing the light.

"Clean up." Tang Shuxing looked at the street outside the window, "There will be half an hour at most, and those walking corpses will not pose any threat to us, and when they slow down and become like paralyzed patients, we don't even need to shoot our guns." ”

The sun gradually set, and the last ray of light disappeared into the cracks of the city buildings, and the walking corpses that were still chasing the light fell one by one, letting out the most lazy groans, and a few got into the buildings with fires, standing in front of the fires in a circle, maintaining their upright posture and not falling, while the others all fell sideways, staring at Tang Shuxing and the others who ran past them, watching the food slip away from their mouths.

Tang Shuxing led everyone out of the back door, and adjusted the frequency of the intercom, leaving Andrew alone to remain above the previous frequency, worried about what happened in the consulate, but until they ran out of a kilometer, they were far away from the sending and receiving distance of the Hawk intercom and still did not hear any "good news".

However, this also shows that Tang Shuxing's decision to leave was correct.

There was no threat of walking corpses, but the threat of snipers and other ambushes remained, but the route was calm, it should be said that since last night, the sporadic fighting in the city was almost over, and the gunshots could only be heard once in dozens of minutes, and by the time they reached the intended target, under the high-rise building, the gunfire was almost inaudible.

If all the living in the city are dead, then this is bad news for them.

The crowd took refuge in a fast-food restaurant across from the high-rise building, which looked like a giant rocket hanging from a launch stand. The style is similar to the Empire State Building in New York, USA, but the overall ratio is slightly narrower. Because of this, the building, called "Shouting", has become a landmark for the whole of Astaya, both domestic and foreign tourists. will come here, although this building is nothing in other countries in the world.

"'Shouting'? The name is weird. Tian Yehan looked around the building with a telescope, and there seemed to be no ambush, but he didn't know if there were any tricky mines in the road, because they were all cement floors and floor tiles, and the possibility of laying mines was very small.

"There's good news and bad news." Andrew also looked through his binoculars at the concrete monument outside the building on the other side, with the name of the builder who built the building and the company that owns it, "The company that built this building is called 'Skbata'. It is a well-known construction engineering enterprise in the United States. The parent company of this company is Shaman Power. ”

The crowd was a little stunned, but then calmed down again, which should have been expected.

"Ironically, the owner of this building is Clolo. It is a high-profile acquisition of a hotel company by Sharman Power many years ago. Tian Yehan looked at the relief text on the cement monument. This company has been around since the eighties of the last century. They are desperately trying to develop in the third world of the country, and wherever the war is severe, they will go wherever they go. ”

"Rumor has it. In the early years, this company was Sharman Power, but it has been playing double reeds. Andrew put down his binoculars, "In my hometown, there is also a chain of hotels of this company, which has not closed down after years of poor management. ”

"Gu madman, take the lead." Tang Shuxing looked at the other side, "Others cover!" ”

Gu Huaiyi carried an assault rifle on his back, and ran out of the city with a yin bee, ran to the back of the car on the side of the street, and looked around, except for a few lying there motionless, I don't know if they were dead or walking corpses, there was nothing.

"It's okay, let's go!" Tang Shuxing pressed the intercom and said, Gu Huaiyi ran to the other side of the road again, hiding behind another car, who knew that as soon as Lu Dao approached the car, the car alarm sounded.

"Woo woo woo-" The sound of the alarm resounded throughout the block, and Tang Shuxing and the others on the opposite side were startled, and immediately raised their guns to aim around, and at the same time called Gu Huaiyi to quickly change positions.

The moment the car siren sounded, Gu Huaiyi had already immediately changed positions, pounced under the cement monument on the side of the car, and mingled with the two bitten and torn corpses lying there, not daring to move, waiting for the siren to end its chirping.

However, in the midst of this utter silence, the sound of one car caused a chain reaction of other intact carsβ€”the sirens of seven or eight cars "resonated" at the same time, emitting all sorts of weird sirens, while flashing their headlights, illuminating the entire neighborhood in a flickering light.

"!" Tang Shuxing looked around with wide eyes, "There are many cars parked here that are not damaged!" ”

"Why don't we get one out of town?" Ji Kefeng muttered on the side.

"Nope." Tian Yehan and Andrew opposed almost at the same time, Tian Yehan said again, "You take a closer look, there are all good cars here, even if there are off-road vehicles, crashing all the way out of the city, it is estimated that they will break down before they reach the outskirts of the city, civilian cars and military vehicles are completely different things." ”

"According to you, we can only leave if we get armored vehicles or something?" Ji Kefeng shook his head and said, "That's almost impossible. ”

"Shhhh ”

Andrew then rushed out of the building with a rifle, shuttled to the left of several cars, and soon reached Gu Huaiyi's position, and then the two walked from both sides of the cement monument towards the main gate of the building, and then entered through the small doors on both sides at the same time.

"It's cold at night, many cars here are in good condition, and most of the cars in other neighborhoods have been damaged and blown up, what does this mean?" Tang Shuxing whispered to Tian Yehan.

Tian Yehan looked at the cars outside, almost all of them were luxury cars and good cars, and the prices of many cars were converted into local currency, which was enough for ordinary residents of Astaya to live for at least 5 years.

"It shows that this building is important to Sharman Power, so they've been protecting the area very well." Tian Yehan analyzed, "Now that there is no one here, we can only speculate that maybe there are people waiting for us inside, or maybe it's just a trap." ”

As the two of them were talking about this, they heard Gu Huaiyi's voice coming from the intercom: "The hall is very quiet, there is no ambush, and there is electricity, it should be underground with its own high-power generator set." ”

Tang Shuxing, Ji Kefeng, and Tian Yehan then covered each other through the street and entered the building opposite.

After entering the hall on the first floor of the building, the five people reunited, looking at the extremely luxurious hall, leather sofas, high-end tables and chairs, and a huge crystal lamp hanging in the middle of the house in the hall. On the left is the entrance to the mall, on the right is the hotel reception, and directly opposite the revolving gate in the middle are six elevators – the far left and right look like freight elevators, the middle four are passenger elevators, behind which there are four escalators, and the far right is a walking staircase.

There were no bodies in the hall, only some of the leather boxes that had been opened and turned over, but there were still blood stains on the ground, which was enough to indicate that there had been a battle here, but someone had cleaned up the corpses.

Tian Yehan looked around, his eyes fell on a surveillance camera, and asked Ji Kefeng again: "Master Ji, have you sensed the existence of living people?" ”

Ji Kefeng closed his eyes and carefully perceived the surroundings, and after walking in place a few times, he shook his head and said: "No, maybe it's because the walls here are too thick, my perception is not accurate, wait, something came in from outside!" ”

"Hidden!" Tian Yehan shouted, and then rushed to the back of the hotel front desk with the others, and just after he fell over and shrunk up, he heard the sound of jumping footsteps outside.

"!" Tang Shuxing lowered his head and closed his eyes, "It's those three zombies again, and the ghosts are still gone!" Wherever we go, they go! Hold your breath! How long can you hold it! ”

Everyone had to take a deep breath and hold back. While covering his mouth and nose, Tang Shuxing found a mirror fragment next to him, slowly raised it over the desktop at the front desk, and looked at the door, it didn't matter, and sure enough, he saw the three zombies appear outside the revolving door, and the funny thing was that the three zombies didn't know how to pass through the revolving door, just jumping in place.

They can't get in, we have to get out right now! Tang Shuxing pointed to the right side of the front desk, motioned for everyone to go out of there one by one, and then walked up the stairs to find the mortar position.

Andrew, on the far right, took the lead, slowly opened the small door behind the front desk, and was about to go out of the front desk, when he suddenly heard the sound of "dang" from the freight elevator on the far left, and someone took the freight elevator down to know that someone immediately shrank back again.

The freight elevator door on the far left slowly opened, and Tang Shuxing looked at it with the broken mirror, but he didn't see anyone coming out of the freight elevator, so he had to continue to move to the left, trying to see what was in the freight elevator from a different angle.

When Tang Shuxing moved to the far left of the front desk, he saw through the broken mirror that there was a sentry tower machine gun in the elevator that automatically detected moving targets!

"Don't move!" Tian Yehan took down Tang Shuxing's hand holding the broken mirror, and said in the lowest voice, "This thing is extremely sensitive, so far I haven't seen anything hit its front and survived!" ”

Andrew also knew the power of this kind of sentry tower machine gun, and signaled Ji Kefeng and Gu Huaiyi not to move, and could only wait and see what happened.

At that moment, the tower machine gun let out a long "drop-" sound, indicating that it had locked onto the three zombies in the doorway...... (To be continued......)
