Chapter 68: The Phantom of the Alley (I)

85_85483 "Brother Hu, we're withdrawing!" ā€

Looking at the big hand that was advancing through the bottom of the car in a daze, Hu Xiaodong was slightly stunned, obviously his tense nerves prevented him from reacting to what was happening outside.

However, when Wu Chao's simple and worried face appeared in his eyes, all the questions turned into floating clouds.

"Okay, let's do it, brother!" With the pull of Wu Chao's right hand, Hu Xiaodong kicked his legs and slid out from under the car.

Due to being under the dark car shielded by corpses for a long time, Hu Xiaodong, who had just been able to see the light again, was a little uncomfortable with the dazzling light shot from overhead.

He subconsciously raised his hand to cover his forehead, blinked his eyebrows vigorously twice, and after being relieved for a while, he immediately asked the question he was most concerned about at the moment: "How is the situation now?"

"Uh~ The supermarket is too small to accommodate all the zombies, so Xiao Tang Jian yƬ we will evacuate as much as possible!" Wu Chao concisely explained the current situation to the confused Hu Xiaodong, and at the same time handed the compound bow of the latter, and said, "Na, this is for you, Brother Hu!" ā€

Wu nodded to himself, Hu Xiaodong glanced back at the supermarket behind him, and a trace of coldness rushed to the top of his head.

Have you ever seen the shocking scene of refugees grabbing food during the famine? At this time, this is the case at the entrance of the Meloz supermarket.

It's just that in the meantime, those so-called hungry and helpless refugees have become bloodthirsty zombies, and the terrifying shock has evolved into endless fear.

"Withdraw!" Hu Xiaodong blurted out the word almost without any hesitation.

At the same time as he settled on the word "withdraw", Ah Cheng's thin figure finally climbed out of the passenger seat.

There is no need for any plan of action, nor any pre-war mobilization, and the survivors know very well that for them, the next "quick and careful" will be the key to their life and death.

After everyone prepared each other's backpacks and made sure that they were reliable, Hu Xiaodong once again took the lead and took on the responsibility of his pioneer.

As mentioned earlier, the rules that survivors need to follow to escape at this moment are nothing more than two key words: speed and caution.

Fast, that is, the survivors can run back to the base as quickly as possible.

And being careful is to ask them to reduce the chance of calling the supermarket zombie to find it as much as possible.

On the whole, it seems quite contradictory, after all, it has to be fast, and it has to be quiet, and if this is an unhindered open space, it is better to say.

But now ......

From time to time, the zombies that block the road, and the various cars abandoned in the middle of the road, all become obstacles on the way for the survivors to escape.

And it is obviously impossible to overcome these obstacles in a silent situation.

But fortunately, Tang Xiaoquan was prescient, and the clever trick of Wu Chao he deployed to use canned fruit to stabilize the attention of the zombies reduced their chances of being reduced.

But Rao is like this, and it inevitably attracts the attention of some peripheral walking corpses.

Hu Xiaodong can't remember how many zombies he has overturned along the way, he only remembers that any living thing that appeared in front of him was cut down by him.

If there was a living person flashing in front of him at this moment, he would probably not hesitate to cut it off the knife.

"Rush, kill, kill!" All that lingered in his mind were words similar to bloody excitement, Hu Xiaodong was like a killing god of war, and his red eyes seemed to be about to devour the world.

This is probably the inner nature of human beings when facing the dilemma of death.

Generally speaking, human nature is divided into two types: wolf nature and sheep nature.

Normally, these two natures are restricted by secular ethics and are mostly buried inside, but once they encounter the danger of the end times, this latent nature will be exposed, thus taking on two completely different forms.

For example, when faced with a threat, a person with a wolf's inner personality often turns the threat into motivation and bursts out of his latent abilities, making himself like a hungry wolf pounced on anything that tries to harm him.

People with the inner character of the sheep will naturally turn fear into a reason for their cowering, and prayer and despair will be their last resort.

Leaning heavily on the billboard of the bus stop, Hu Xiaodong's lungs were like a blower, and his five-foot long knife was covered with jet-black mucus, which looked particularly terrifying under the reflection of the sun.

The distance in a straight line is definitely no more than 300 meters, but for the survivors at the moment, it is as exhausting as if they have experienced a 10,000-meter marathon.

Wu Chao casually carried the backpack in his hand, and the original precipitated and thick body of the bag was already half shriveled at the moment.

And the space that was reduced was undoubtedly the canned fruit that he threw away.

5 bottles or 6 bottles, Wu Chao is not sure, but even if it is more, as long as it can be exchanged for the safety of everyone along the way, it will be worth it.

After a slight break of 2 or 3 minutes, the survivors set out on their journey again.

The scorching sun above his head was still scorching, which made the survivors who had to **** their upper bodies miserable, a large amount of body fluids were rapidly lost along the dilated pores, and Tang Xiaoquan, who had poor body quality, even began to feel dizzy.

It can be seen that hydration has become an urgent problem for survivors, but the streets full of dangers are clearly not the place to solve this problem.

After another 20 minutes of stopping or walking, Hu Xiaodong finally led a group of companions to a car bunker outside the alley.

Looking at the base that was close at hand, everyone was refreshed, and the beautiful feeling of returning home made their exhaustion alleviate a little.

However, Hu Xiaodong's joy did not last long, and when he saw a few elongated figures in the familiar alleyway, a pair of thick black eyebrows couldn't help frowning.

"What's the matter, Brother Hu? Is there anything wrong? Tang Xiaoquan noticed Hu Xiaodong's strange appearance, he leaned over to his side and asked in a low voice.

Wu Zi nodded, Hu Xiaodong stretched out a finger, and then said to the black shadow reflected on the ground: "See there?" There's movement in the alley! ā€

Indeed, following the direction pointed by Hu Xiaodong, Tang Xiaoquan did find a few flickering black shadows.

So the question is, what exactly are these dark shadows?

Person? Zombie? Or something else?
