Chapter 7 The uninvited guest with a hard life
It took Cao Yin nearly an hour to reach his residence, which normally only takes half an hour at most, but he has bypassed the zombie-infested neighborhoods many times along the way, and Cao Yin thinks it's definitely worth it, because once the zombies are alarmed, it will be more physically demanding to successfully get rid of them, and it will be even worse if you can't get out.
Cao Yin's residence is an apartment building built on the slope of a hill, with a road leading to the city's famous ancient town in front of the door, and the entrance to the mountain is on the opposite side of the road.
There are several residential buildings on the mountain, and there is a mysterious temple on the top of the mountain, called Fengming Temple, Cao Yin has always been full of curiosity about it, because although there are monks in Fengming Temple, they never operate incense, the temple door is closed all year round, and I don't know what kind of hygiene this group of monks has.
Due to the zombie catastrophe, the residents living here have fled one after another, so Fengming Mountain and its nearby neighborhoods have also been reduced to a depressed and dilapidated no man's land, but the green scenery of the mountains and forests is more beautiful and pleasant than ever, and the birds and insects in the forest are more and more cheerful and beautiful.
Cao Yin stood on the empty road, looking around vigilantly, several zombies were wandering on the asphalt road not far away, not noticing Cao Yin's appearance for the time being.
Cao Yin lowered his posture, subconsciously clenched the steel pipe used for self-defense, and prepared to enter the door of the building. Cao Yin knew that encountering zombies in the building was unavoidable, so he could only pray that he wouldn't be too weak, even if there were zombies, he could solve them.
Cao Yin had just stepped into the door, and a familiar figure suddenly flashed at the staircase of the elevator on the first floor, and when he took a closer look, it was actually the handsome mercenary with a scumbag face, and the eyes of the two happened to meet at this time.
Cao Yin was so shocked that he trembled, he didn't expect the scumbag man to be dead, so he quickly turned around and wanted to run, but soon felt a gust of wind in his back, and then put a hand on his shoulder, he suddenly felt that his shoulder was pressed by a boulder, and his whole body was fixed in place, and he couldn't even lift his legs.
Cao Yin didn't care whether the other party was a human or a ghost, he swung the steel pipe backwards suddenly, and after a muffled sound, he looked back and found that the steel pipe had smashed on the wrist that the scumbag man used to block. The heroic scumbag looked at Cao Yin with cold and arrogant eyes, as if looking at a prey to be slaughtered.
"Sir...... You listen to me, it's all wrong...... Misunderstanding, I thought you were a zombie," Cao Yin saw that he didn't take advantage of the first attack, and he was so nervous that he stammered, "I ...... I had no idea you were being ...... I was almost ...... when I was ambushed Blown up! ”
"Hmph," the scumbag man flipped his wrist, easily snatched the steel pipe in Cao Yin's hand, and threw it aside, Cao Yin thought that the blow he had just swung was not shallow, but the scumbag's wrist seemed to be undamaged, so he immediately gave up the idea of fighting with it, these mercenaries looked like a killing machine that had been tempered thousands of times.
The scumbag man glanced at the zombies nearby, and after confirming that he had not alarmed them, he patted the dust on his hands and said calmly, "It seems that it is correct to investigate your residential address in advance, and you really came back to find your sister, so you don't have to bother looking for you." ”
"I heard you've been involved in that explosion...... Cao Yin asked in fear.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, my life is hard, but my brothers are already folded there," the scumbag said, "I have two important things now, both of which are related to you, if it's convenient for you, cooperate with me." ”
"Huh? I don't ...... right now It's not particularly convenient,......," Cao Yin replied.
"I'm just being polite, and I don't intend to respect your wishes," the scumbag said, "but since we're all at your house, let's go back to your sister first, but you'll be disappointed, because I've already gone up to see it, and your sister isn't at home." ”
The scumbag man's tone didn't look like a lie, Cao Yin was naturally disappointed after hearing it, but he still didn't change his initial thoughts, maybe Cao Shumin hid under the bed or in the closet because he was afraid of intruders, and this scumbag just made a cursory round.
The bearded scumbag man had burns on his face and hands, and his original combat uniform had been taken off, and now he was wearing only a black undershirt, outlining the outline of his muscular physique. It was hard for Cao Yin to imagine that the scumbag man could survive the explosion, Cao Yin was the farthest away from the helicopter, and the fat man was still in front of him, and in the end, he was all rushed away.
The scumbag was leaning against the helicopter at the time, in the center of the explosion, and the violent shock wave generated by the explosion was enough to kill him, but the scumbag man seemed to have only suffered minor burns, and there was no major problem at all, which was really incredible.
"Maybe he is also an awakened person of the 'Blood Deformity Character', which just gives him a flame-resistant and beating-resistant physique." Cao Yin felt that it would only be reasonable to think like this.
The scumbag man followed behind Cao Yin and said, "You just go upstairs, the zombies in the corridor have been dealt with by me." ”
Cao Yin knew that the elevator must be broken, so he took the stairs directly, his family lived on the tenth floor, and he still had to work hard to climb up, and on the way he encountered a lot of zombies lying on the ground, which had stopped moving, and if he looked closely, he could see that their necks were deformed, which was a trace of heavy damage to the cervical spine.
Cao Yin knew that this must have been done by the scumbag behind him, and with his steel wrist that could perfectly block blunt blows without the help of any protective gear, it would definitely not be a problem to subdue the zombies in one or two moves.
Hu Scumbag still regards Cao Yin as the target of the task, and there is no enmity between the two, so Cao Yin thinks that temporarily complying with the other party's instructions can at least ensure personal safety, and then find a chance to get out, if it is really not possible, he will sneak attack and stun him, since Hu Scumbag does not take himself in his eyes, but there are many opportunities to take advantage of.
Cao Yin lived on the tenth floor, and after climbing up with some effort, he hurriedly rushed to the door, the door lock had been smashed, and the door was hidden, which was probably also done by the scumbag, if it weren't for him, Cao Yin couldn't enter the house immediately, because the door key was not with him.
There are no traces of invasion in the living room and bedroom, and there are no traces of blood, which shows that there are no zombies or robbers in the house, but there is a thick layer of dust accumulated on the furniture, indicating that the house has not been inhabited for a long time, which makes Cao Yin quite disappointed at this time.
"Xiaoshu, brother, I'm back, don't hide it!" Cao Yin looked around and shouted with all his might, "Hurry up!" ”
Cao Yin searched all the places in the house where he could hide people, and called Cao Shumin while searching, but as the scumbag said, Cao Shumin was obviously no longer at home, and he had been gone for a long time.
"Boy, there's a note on the fridge that you missed." The scumbag leaned against the door frame and reminded calmly.
Cao Yin came to the refrigerator and saw a note with a magnet on it: "Brother, Jianghua City is now so noisy that the zombies can't stay any longer, I went to Haihua City with Lin Bo to join his old friend, if you come back, call this number to contact us: 53210983, I hope you can be safe, Xiaoshu." ”
Cao Yin frowned and finished reading this note, his heart was uneasy, he turned his head to look at the scumbag man, and said, "This is indeed my sister's handwriting, but your fat chief said that Cao Shumin was not on the official evacuation list, so what is she ...... now?"
"I don't know about this," the scumbag said, "After the zombie outbreak, many citizens want to escape from Jianghua City, and it is not so easy to pass through the armed separation line of the army, except for the possibility of being bitten to death by zombies, it is not impossible to be cleared by the military." ”
"The military still harms civilians? Are you kidding me! ”
"To tell you the truth, I've seen it with my own eyes, those people are desperately trying to break through the separation line, and the military has issued many warnings, but they ignore the meaning of armed separation, and still rush forward desperately, the situation is already on the verge of getting out of control," Hu Scumbag's expression was also a little gloomy, "Do you think the military will relent and let go, if someone flees to other cities with that deadly radiation source, the consequences are unimaginable." ”
"Yes," Cao Yin muttered, "so these guys can't live because of their own evils." ”
"Although it is indeed cruel, the effect is remarkable and long-lasting," said the scumbag, "high-pressure water cannons, unmanned bombers, Gatling guns, everything is used, as long as the first wave of people is eliminated, the next ones will no longer have the courage to break through the separation line." ”
"Lin Bo is a teacher, and Xiaoshu is so sensible, he will definitely not mix blindly." Cao Yin scratched his scalp repeatedly and muttered to himself.
Lin Bo is a retired teacher in his fifties who lives next door to Cao Yin, and he is a warm-hearted person, Cao Yin's father and he are old acquaintances, and he specially entrusted the two siblings to his care. Lin Bo usually treats Cao Yin's brothers and sisters as his own, and Cao Yin naturally regards Lin Bo as a trustworthy family member, and even takes the place of his biological father.
"Then you pray that they are safe," said the scumbag, "and in such a big city, maybe she is still alive and well somewhere." ”
Cao Yin took down the note from the refrigerator and looked at it carefully several times, this crooked handwriting was indeed Cao Shumin's, but there were several rows of hard-to-find character prints on this note, and those word prints were neatly arranged in the lower right corner of the note, and the neat and powerful character prints were obviously not left by Cao Shumin.
"Lin Bo......" The first thing Cao Yin thought of was him, only Lin Bo and Cao Shumin would think about leaving a message for themselves, because the others were not so familiar with him. However, Cao Yin didn't understand why Lin Bo would use this method to leave him a message, making him look like a spy, was this necessary? ”
Although Cao Yin couldn't guess Lin Bo's true intentions, he understood that he was definitely not doing this so that everyone could know the content of the message, so he disguised himself as sad and put the note in his pocket, and then used a pencil to scribble the handwriting later.
"The boy is satisfied," said the scumbag, "I have almost done my duty to you, this is not part of the task, and now it is time for you to cooperate with me." ”
"Do you plan to continue your mission even if your teammates are killed?"
"Of course, even if I'm the only one left, the mission is still the highest priority," the scumbag said, "but before I can do that, I need to confirm the stronghold of the group of guys who ambushed us, you tell me now, and then I'll go and confirm it myself." ”
"How do I know this, I'm not in the same group as them," Cao Yin immediately denied it, although he didn't have a good impression of that group of people, but it would definitely be useful in the future, especially the vaccine to delay the corpse transformation, and some information that would help find Cao Shumin.
The scumbag man showed a very contemptuous sneer, and he said: "Do you think that a simple lie can fool the past, you must have been in contact with them after we were attacked, because their target was you in the first place." ”
"It's just your subjective assumption," Cao Yin continued to quibble, "what reason do they have to take me away, I'm just a helpless student, and I escaped alone after the explosion." ”
The scumbag man said: "Do you really think I'm easy to dismiss, where did your two handcuffs go, you shouldn't be able to untie them alone, and how do you explain the eye of the needle on your neck, that is the mark left by the injection, your hand was bitten by a zombie not long ago, someone injected you with the vaccine." ”
Cao Yin touched his neck, there was still a faint pain left in the injection site, he looked at the scumbag man nervously, and said in his heart that this guy's observation power was so strong, he could see such a small trace of the needle's eye.
"I don't have any means to attack my heart," the scumbag man pressed the knuckles of his fist a few times, clicking, and he said, "If you don't honestly explain their stronghold, I'll make you suffer, trust me, you won't last a minute." ”
Cao Yin took a few steps back, he knew that the scumbag was not lying, and his eyes and tone were full of a cold and violent aura, which made him shudder.
In the face of the obscenity of the scumbag, when Cao Yin was about to say everything he knew, a petite and delicate figure suddenly appeared at the door, it was Lin Mo, she looked at Cao Yin, and suddenly showed a very imperceptible smile, even if it was a shallow smile, Cao Yin was surprised, because Lin Mo had never laughed before.
Just when Lin Mo crouched and approached behind the scumbag, the scumbag was stunned for a moment and said, "I didn't expect you to have a helper, if you guessed correctly, the one standing behind me is one of those guys." ”
Lin Mo was not surprised that the scumbag man found out, she rushed towards the scumbag without saying a word, like a bow and arrow off the string, and her hands were still holding the steel pipe that was thrown away by the scumbag just now.
The scumbag was about to turn back, but the steel pipe that Lin Mo swung out had already hit the back of his head, and with a clear sound, a few bright red blood flowers splashed on the head of the scumbag, and his whole body was knocked away by the steel pipe, and he hit the wall next to him with a "bang", and then fell to the floor and stopped moving.
Lin Mo's attack power is really amazing, but Cao Yin is even more surprised by the scumbag man, if an ordinary person is hit by this steel pipe, his skull will already be shattered like a plaster, but the back of the scumbag man's head is only bleeding a little and has not been broken, and the straight steel pipe has been bent and deformed at this time.
"Why are you still here?" Cao Yin saw that Lin Mo was still following him, and in addition to being a little surprised, he also felt very lucky, after all, he was the one who was going to suffer, but now he is a scumbag who is suffering.
Lin Mo said "um", staring at the already unconscious scumbag, she touched the neck of the scumbag, her pupils shrank suddenly, then turned around and walked straight to the kitchen, and after a while, she brought out a shiny kitchen knife, and said: "I'm here to protect your safety, this person is still angry, and he must be eliminated immediately." ”
After saying that, Lin Mo hurried towards the scumbag who fell to the ground, squatted down and raised the kitchen knife high towards his neck, without a trace of hesitation and unbearability in his eyes.
