Volume 3: The Struggle of the Last Days Chapter 91 The Old Girl of the Inn
Bai Yunlian felt that her hand holding the gun trembled very much, and several times, she almost pulled the trigger, but fortunately, at the last moment, her mind overwhelmed her instinct, and Lijiang, which had finally quieted down, was about to face a bloody storm again. But that's not all, on two occasions, when the two of them crept forward against the wall of the shop, a blood-stained face and eyes as big as a ping-pong ball suddenly popped up on the glass wall of the shop!
This almost scared Bai Yunlian's little heart out of his chest, not to mention Xiao Xiuping, if it weren't for the fact that these two faces appeared higher than him, Bai Yunlian was really worried, he would not be able to control and shout.
After walking about two hundred meters further, Xiao Xiuping suddenly pulled Labo Yunlian's raincoat, and pointed to an alley on the right hand side with a small finger. Bai Yunlian was startled, thinking that there was an infected person there, so she hurriedly moved the muzzle of the gun, but in that small alley, quietly, there was no one with teeth and claws. Bai Yunlian lowered her body and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”
"Bookstore." Xiao Xiuping opened his mouth unprecedentedly, and when he looked at Bai Yunlian, the fear in the depths of his eyes seemed to be gone.
Bookshop? Bai Yunlian raised her head, and then looked at the alley, this alley is about four meters wide, the ground is paved with uneven bluestone slabs, on the edge of the road, there is a row of triangular plums, around the trunk, there is a circle of flower bases, after the flower base is the gate of the store, on the laneway of more than 20 meters, there are four or five shops, but they are not book houses. It seems that the bookstore is deep in the alley, that ...... Do you want to go in? What happened just now had already made Bai Yunlian's heart palpitate, and she was really scared that there would be another group of people here to light a string of firecrackers for the two of them......
"Are there any other bookstores around here?"
Xiao Xiuping shook his head and waved his hand.
"Okay." Bai Yunlian took a deep breath, suppressed her "bang" beating heart, and followed Xiao Xiuping in. And as he walked, he also glanced at the doors and windows of the houses on both sides from time to time, for fear that a string of firecrackers would suddenly come out from there. In this way, about 100 meters into the alley, under the camellia tree in front of them, two infected people in red costumes were wandering aimlessly, the torn long lining, like a broken tail, hanging under them.
When Xiao Xiuping saw these two infected people, he immediately froze in place, his pupils dilated infinitely, and he seemed to remember the scene when he was forced to jump into the river just now, after all, his clothes were still wet. Bai Yunlian raised her head and carefully observed the layout of the surrounding buildings. In fact, when designing this block, the designer fully considered fire prevention, ventilation, traffic and other aspects, so the buildings on both sides of the street, every other distance, there is a horizontal alley connected to the next street, and some bottom merchants also have a back door, through it, you can go around the next street, so as to avoid these infected people.
Bai Yunlian glanced at a shop on the right, this seemed to be an antique inn, two stories high, wooden window frames, steps, gates, bluestone slabs that had been through the vicissitudes of life, marble tables and chairs full of leaves, and an inconspicuous light, looming at the end of the corridor, it was estimated that the light source should be the back door at the other end of the corridor.
"Follow me, let's go around." Bai Yunlian bowed her head and said a word, and then stepped through the door of the inn, no matter how similar Xiao Xiuping is to Xiao Zhenzhen, but between Bai Yunlian and Xiao Xiuping, there is always something separated, therefore, Bai Yunlian just uses "me" to call herself, not her sister. I wonder if time will be enough to change the two of them to perceive each other?
The inn was damp and dim, the wooden floor seemed to climb up to a layer of moss, and if you didn't pay attention to it, it would slide to the ground, and the light source in the inn came from a sliding window on the right hand side of the door and counter, but this window opened in the direction of the Yudai River. In addition, there was a glimmer of light coming from behind a large wooden door in front of the window, but it was not warm, on the contrary, it seemed to carry a chill.
Bai Yunlian folded the butt of the submachine gun, and then walked towards the wooden door step by step, Xiao Xiuping also seemed to feel that something was wrong, and froze in place for two seconds, until the wind blowing from the sliding window pierced his skin, he reacted and hurriedly chased after him.
Behind the wooden door is a small dining room, about ten meters long and five or six meters wide, with a number of tables and chairs piled up messily in the dining room, between the tables and chairs, there are broken dishes and chopsticks, a few teacups around, and even a circle of dried tea. In the middle of the restaurant, there is a door, behind which is a slender corridor leading to the kitchen, and according to experience, there must be a door in the kitchen, which is specially used for dishes to be transported in and waste products to be pulled away.
Bai Yunlian glanced behind her and saw Xiao Xiuping following behind without leaving an inch, so she put her attention in front and walked towards the kitchen with confidence. The kitchen is tiled, and although there is a red non-slip mat on it, you can still feel the oil when you step on it. The huge kitchen is divided into three parts by rows of shelves, some of which are hollowed out and some of which are not, and the dappled light shines on the shiny floor. At this time, a gust of wind blew from Bai Yunlian's side, Bai Yunlian couldn't help frowning, it turned out that there seemed to be a faint sobbing sound in the wind, as well as the body odor of some people.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Bai Yunlian decided to find out. An old woman, wrapped in a turban, sat at a table presumably for the cooks, holding a small cocoon in her arms, and was crying in a low voice. The old woman had her back to the sun, so she couldn't see her face clearly. The old woman seemed to be aware of the presence of others, and when she looked up, and when she saw the two big living people in front of her, her eyes full of tears suddenly shone with a glimmer of golden light.
"Save ...... Save my ...... Child......" she said in a dialect that Bai Yunlian didn't understand with a choked voice, and stood up on the table as she spoke, but her back didn't seem to be straight.
Bai Yunlian put down the gun, swallowed, and slowly walked into the point, but what she didn't notice was that one side of the table was blocked by a tall cabinet, and she couldn't see what was behind it.
The old woman seemed to push back slightly, and her voice became louder: "Help...... I...... ...... children"
The little silkworm cocoon was handed over to Bai Yunlian, Bai Yunlian looked down and saw that this little silkworm cocoon was wrapped in a piece of blue coarse cloth, leaving not an inch of skin outside, she gently opened the corner with her left hand, and "scared" her pupils suddenly swelled several times, what kind of cocoon is this, yellow and black skin, black eye holes, and a mouth and nose full of green liquid!
"Be careful!" A sharp child's voice suddenly came from behind Bai Yunlian, this is Xiao Xiuping's voice!
Bai Yunlian subconsciously leaned to the side, kicked her left leg backwards, and at the same time let go of her hand, the "silkworm cocoon" was smashed to the ground with a "bang", and then her right hand pressed into her arms, and then the muzzle of the submachine gun was raised, and only then did she see clearly that behind her, there were two strong men standing, their hair was growing like weeds, and their bodies were up and down, exuding a rancid smell caused by not washing for a long time. And in the hands of these two men, each holding a boning knife. If it weren't for Xiao Xiuping's timely reaction, I'm afraid Bai Yunlian's neck bone would have been cut in two like that pig bone.
"You threw my child!" The old woman's gloomy and strange voice suddenly came from Bai Yunlian's left side, and at the same time, something swept through Bai Yunlian's afterglow.
At the same time as the "da" gunshot, a sharp and hard object also hit Bai Yunlian's stomach. Bai Yunlian only felt as if she had been pushed by something, but she didn't have a chance to check the injury, because the two men over there also attacked at the same time, the one who leaned on the cupboard, because he had just been kicked and had not yet eased up, so his movements were slightly behind, and the one at the dinner table was far away from Bai Yunlian, so he couldn't seize Bai Yunlian's opportunity to deal with the old woman. By the time the two of them approached Bai Yunlian, the latter had already returned to the muzzle. "Da Da Da" and "Da Da" A few big red blood flowers bloomed on the chests of the two of them, and quickly dyed the entire clothes.
The three heavy bodies of "knock", "knock", and "knock" fell to the ground one after another, and the sound of "bang", "bang", "bang" and "bang" metal falling to the ground also sounded one after another. Bai Yunlian breathed a sigh of relief, and looked down to see that the raincoat seemed to have been pierced through a hole, fortunately, outside her abdomen, there was a carrying device with a magazine, if it weren't for this magazine, the old woman's knife would have really pierced her stomach!
"Roar", "Roar"
"Dead ...... Dead...... "Although the left arm was shot, the old woman's mouth was not to be outdone, and she scolded unrelentingly.
"Get up!" Bai Yunlian grabbed the old woman's collar and pointed to the corridor leading to the restaurant with her right hand, "If you want to live, run quickly!" ”
"You don't ...... Don't die well......" the old woman stumbled into the aisle as she spitted, "You...... Wait...... ...... with a thousand cuts"
"Ugh." Bai Yunlian shook her head, unloaded the empty magazine, and replaced it with a new one, "Let's go, time is running out." ”
However, Xiao Xiuping looked at the two people at the dinner table whose limbs were still twitching in a daze, as if he had been immobilized, and his small mouth opened into an "O" shape, and many air currents erupted from his mouth, but he couldn't make a single note. I guess I was frightened by the scene in front of me. Perhaps, he hasn't seen a big living person in front of his eyes and say no, it's gone? Of course, this is not to blame Xiao Xiuping, you must know that when Bai Yunlian went to the Nantong Mine Cave for the first time, she was also sluggish for two days and two nights, and had nightmares for more than a month.
Bai Yunlian simply turned off the safety of the submachine gun, pulled out the pistol on her waist with her right hand, grabbed Xiao Xiuping's right hand with her left hand, and ran to the back door without saying a word. At the moment of starting, there seemed to be a chaotic sound of footsteps in her ears at the same time.
"Ah~" The heart-rending screams suddenly sounded from the ears of the two, and at the same time as the screams, there were panting sounds of "hoo", "hoo", and a low roar.
