Chapter 40: A New Life
The conversation continued, and Yang Zining told what he had seen and heard along the way from the perspective of a bystander, until Zou Lin came over with an excited face and whispered a few words to Zhao Qiang, and the conversation had to come to an end.
"Are you sure?" Zhao Qiang's eyes widened.
"Hmm!" Zou Lin nodded vigorously: "Doctor Mei has already seen it, sure!" ”
Zhao Qiang was stunned for a few seconds, and finally calmed down, turned his head to Yang Zining and said, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't accept your invitation." ”
"There's no need to rush." Yang Zining didn't know what Zou Lin said to Zhao Qiang, but he would definitely not easily give up the idea of recruiting an excellent warrior: "We will help you rebuild this base, and you still have enough time to think about this before we leave." ”
"Thank you for your kindness, but I really don't need to." After speaking, Zhao Qiang walked out, no less fast than the zombie dog attacking at full speed, "I'm going to be a father." Before the voice fell, the man had disappeared around the corner.
Pensa's pregnancy is definitely a big deal in this base. It's not just a simple matter for Zhao Qiang to be a father, a new life appears in the Survivors Alliance, which can be said to be a major event of great significance.
It has been more than half a year since the disaster broke out, and this half year can be said to be the darkest period in human history. Zombies are raging, the lives of countless survivors are hanging by a thread, all kinds of pessimistic and misanthropic emotions are spreading among the crowd like infectious diseases, and people at this time can't see tomorrow or hope.
Finally, when the day dawned, the long-lost sun shone again, many of the stubborn surviving plants bloomed again, and the survivors took great risks and began to rebuild their homes, but there was still no hope in sight. People die every day, and people are slowly getting used to the days when people die every day, and they have even begun to believe that the next person to die is themselves.
Maybe the number of survivors is too small, or the survival rate of pregnant women in disasters is too low, from the outbreak of the disaster to today, not a single newborn has been born, not even a single pregnant one, which is a greater threat to humanity than zombies, if this situation continues, the history of mankind will be completely ended in the foreseeable future.
Therefore, the news of Peng Sha's pregnancy quickly spread among several high-level officials, and Zhao Qiang, the father-to-be, was even the last person to rush to the infirmary.
Like a whirlwind, Zhao Qiang found a way through the crowd of onlookers who were surrounded without stopping and rushed into the ward.
"Is it true?" Zhao Qiang poked at the door of the ward, so nervous that he didn't know what to say.
"Are you doubting my professionalism?" Mei Qiu kept a straight face, but she couldn't hide the joy in her heart.
"It's been two months." Pensa was half-lying on the bed, having just undergone a series of examinations by Dr. May, and her somewhat tired face flashed with a maternal light.
"Boys and girls?" Zhao Qiang sat next to Peng Sha, grabbed Peng Sha's hand and asked.
"So fast!" Peng Shaqiao's face flushed, "It's only been two months." ”
"Hehe, I'm going to be a dad, I'm going to be a dad." Zhao Qiang's mouth was so happy that he couldn't close it, and he just hugged Peng Sha and smirked.
"Don't be in a hurry to rejoice." Mei Qiu poured a basin of cold water on her, "You haven't forgotten that we are new humans, have you?" ”
"yes, what's the problem?" Zhao Qiang asked.
"The problem is that the genes of the new humans have changed a lot from the past, and I don't know if this has any effect on newborns, so you have to promise that Pensha has to come to me every week for follow-up visits, is there a problem?" In the field of medicine, Mei Qiu's words are always unquestionable.
"No problem." Zhao Qiang was more nervous than anyone else at this time, and when he heard such a request, his head immediately felt like pounding garlic.
"Also, your wife's nutritional status is very poor, and you know the food we have here, so ......"
"It's a little thing, it's on me!" Zhao Qiang hurriedly said: "Doctor Mei, what do you want?" As long as there is something outside, I will get it back for you, and if you want to smash the head, I will also get you a dozen back. ”
"Unkind little bastard, what do I want that thing for?" Mei Qiu scolded with a smile: "Go to the pharmacy, get me all the vitamins there, and you can do the rest yourself!" ”
************************************************
"Hell!" Zhao Qiang cursed in a low voice, it had been a whole day, Zhao Qiang was walking alone on the streets of Xiangtan City, which was full of zombies, Zhao Qiang had lost count of how many zombies he had destroyed, this was the seventeenth time he had rushed into the pharmacy, "It's empty again!" Complaining is complaining, Zhao Qiang is still unwilling to rummage around the shelves, hoping to find even the slightest fish that slips through the net.
There was a mess everywhere, all the shelves were empty, the boxes were wide open and thrown on the ground, and the medicines inside had already been swept away by the survivors who had taken the lead.
Not all survivors will leave some of their supplies for other survivors who may be able to pick them up, as the Tigers do, and for those who do, every outing is a huge risk, so almost all survivors who go out choose to empty all the supplies they can find.
"Bang dang", followed by a series of rolling sounds, Zhao Qiang, who was on high alert, instantly entered a combat state, and the Type 97 assault rifle took less than 0.1 seconds to aim at the direction where the sound came from, and a black shadow disappeared into the thick darkness in an instant.
"Damn!" A fleeting opportunity is simply not enough for Zhao Qiang to hit the target, Zhao Qiang's bullets are running out, so there is no complete certainty, Zhao Qiang is unwilling to waste this precious resource.
Zhao Qiang put away the gun stupidly, rubbed his body and chased in the direction where the black shadow had gone. He didn't have a night vision device, and the long-term high-load combat had prompted Zhao Qiang to evolve abilities similar to low-light vision, and even in the dark of night, Zhao Qiang could find targets in time.
The speed of the black shadow is very fast, and a few ups and downs will leave Zhao Qiang behind, but whenever Zhao Qiang thinks that he has lost his goal, the black shadow will flash not far away, luring Zhao Qiang to go deeper step by step, but Zhao Qiang is unaware of it, and still follows away unrelentingly.
"Wait, I don't mean anything malicious!" Zhao Qiang faintly felt that this black shadow seemed to be a human being, and at a glance, the black shadow was exquisite, it should be a woman, and the vigorous movements and skills similar to parkour also confirmed Zhao Qiang's judgment.
Hearing Zhao Qiang's shout, the black shadow seemed to glance back, but the movements under his feet did not stop, and he shuttled through the alley with his hands and feet.
