On the Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway, there is a mess everywhere. There are tragic scenes of the aftermath of the car accident everywhere, and there are many rear-end cars that are rising black smoke, and a few zombies are wandering around the wreckage of the car from time to time.

Wei Tao drove intently, the usually smooth and convenient highway has now become a Shura slaughterhouse, all kinds of wreckage make the road difficult to walk, and the devil from hell is also wandering around. Carefully dodging the obstacles on the road, the zombies wandering in front of him, Wei Tao's choice was to hit them directly.

Zhao Qiang held the gun, leaned back on the seat and took a nap. The car has been driving for most of the day, but it is still moving in Yueyang. A violent jolt woke up Zhao Qiang, who was sleeping lightly, and the cash truck had just been run over by an unlucky zombie.

"How do you tell if the other party is a zombie?" Zhao Qiang adjusted his posture and observed the crushed bloody but desperately struggling zombie from the rearview mirror.

"It's very simple, if it were a normal person, he would wave his arms and hide on the side of the road, instead of rushing directly at us." Wei Tao stared at the road ahead, and in areas with better road conditions, Wei Tao would consciously speed up.

"Have you met a survivor?" This question is stupid, but Zhao Qiang still asked such a stupid question.

Turning his head to look at Zhao Qiang, Wei Tao did not answer this question. The anxiety written on his face made him desperately start to increase the speed of the car. It's been so long, and there are abandoned cars everywhere, and all you see are zombies. Wei Tao once parked the car next to a Mazda that looked moving, and what appeared from behind the window was a hideous and festering face, as if he had found the flesh and blood breath that stayed on the side, the face desperately backlogged the window, and the deformed facial features and the slime that kept flowing from his mouth made Wei Tao suddenly give up the idea of looking for survivors.

"I'm running out of gas." Wei Tao glanced down at the fuel gauge and threw out a sentence: "It can be driven for 10 minutes at most." ”

Zhao Qiang took out his mobile phone and opened the navigation software Google Maps. When he first got on the road, Zhao Qiang found that even though the network is paralyzed now, the GPS satellite is still working, and the map is also stored in the mobile phone during the perennial run between Changsha and Yueyang. Looking at the map, Zhao Qiang found that there was a gas station not far ahead.

PetroChina's gas station stands alone on the side of the road, and the once lively gas station rest area is still full of all kinds of vehicles, but there is no hustle and bustle. Not far from the gas station, a silver-gray BMW slammed into the barrier, and the driver's body fell through the windshield and fell on the deformed hood of the BMW, motionless.

The cash truck slowly drove into the gas station and stopped steadily next to a gas dispenser, but the two people in the car did not get out of the car for a long time. After a few horns, a few guys in gas station uniforms staggered towards the car, seemingly to provide refueling services to the guests.

"There are 28 of them." Wei Tao's professional special police quality is well reflected, and at this time Zhao Qiang is still entangled in the number 15.

"Check the weapon, the bullet is loaded." Wei Tao reminded Zhao Qiang with an order, took out the Type 77 pistol he was carrying, and said, "Follow me, one goal for each person, and strive for one shot." With that, he opened the door and left the cash truck.

Zhao Qiang didn't take out his pistol, he was not familiar enough with the pistol to ensure the accuracy of shooting, so he still held the familiar Type 81 rifle. Closing the car door casually, Zhao Qiang followed the monk who had already gotten out of the car and started this not a fierce battle.

The battle lasted less than 3 minutes, and 28 zombies were lying on the ground that could no longer stand up. Wei Tao inspected the battlefield, changed the magazine, and then casually refilled the heads of several zombies who were still struggling on the ground, and then turned around and went back to refuel the cash truck.

Zhao Qiang looked at Wei Tao's back, and a trace of guilt appeared in his heart. Those zombies that are not dead are Zhao Qiang's "masterpieces", even if they shoot at close range, Zhao Qiang's shooting still has many deviations, a magazine of 30 rounds only knocked down 12 zombies, and a few of them are still struggling. On the other hand, Wei Tao shot 16 bullets and guns, and there was no ** fee. In the end, it wasn't Wei Tao who solved the few remaining zombies on the ground, and it was estimated that Zhao Qiang would be inadvertently bitten by them.

The oil was quickly filled, but Wei Tao was still a little uneasy, and after instructing Zhao Qiang to act as a guard, he walked into the gas station to look for the oil pot, after all, storing more gasoline would only be good for the future.

Wei Tao's figure disappeared into the office area of the gas station, and the surroundings were empty. A few zombies hovering on the other side of the highway were blocked by the barrier, and they could only wave their arms helplessly. Zhao Qiang picked up his gun and aimed at the guys on the opposite side who couldn't get close, but he didn't shoot. He believed in his marksmanship, knowing that at such a distance, the chances of shooting these zombies in the head were lower than buying a lottery ticket to win the jackpot, and the sound of gunfire might also attract more zombies closer.

"Bang, bang, bang" three gunshots came from the office area of the gas station. Zhao Qiang was shocked, Wei Tao had an accident! Without hesitation, Zhao Qiang immediately rushed into the office area.

There was no light, and the hall in the office area was dim, and Zhao Qiang, who had just rushed in, heard Wei Tao's cursing voice. Following the sound, Zhao Qiang quickly found Wei Tao who was thrown to the ground by the zombies, the Type 77 pistol fell aside, and there were 3 unlucky people who were headshot lying next to him. Wei Tao's right hand was bitten in the mouth by the zombie, and his left hand was stuck in the zombie's neck, so that the zombie could no longer get close. The power of the zombie is very great, Wei Tao struggled for a long time and couldn't break free from the control of the zombie, so he could only curse loudly.

Zhao Qiang rushed to the front and yelled: "Hey, look here!" You're ***! Finding that someone else was approaching, the zombie who pounced on Wei Tao raised his dead fish-like eyes, instantly forgetting Wei Tao who was being pressed by it under him, and let out a roar in his throat, trying to stand up at Zhao Qiang.

With a muffled sound of a shattered skull, the zombie lay limp down. Zhao Qiang was worried about Wei Tao's injuries and was afraid of shooting Wei Tao, so he chose to hit the zombie's head with the butt of his gun. Dealing with the zombies pressing on his body, Wei Tao quickly turned over and stood up. After stomping on the zombie's head a few times, Wei Tao took off his gloves to check his right hand that was bitten by the zombie.

Wei Tao's right hand was bruised by the zombie's bite, but fortunately his skin was not damaged in any way. "Thanks to these cut-resistant gloves." Wei Tao discovered the source of his luck and leaned over to pick up his matching gun.

"Xiao Zhao, there is movement behind this door, like there are survivors." Wei Tao came over after discovering the movement here, and found that 3 zombies were trying to break into a guard door. Wei Tao, who shot and dealt with 3 zombies, never thought that another zombie suddenly appeared from the shadow in the corner, and Wei Tao, who had no time to react, only had time to block the zombie's sharp teeth with his hand, and the huge strength of the zombie forced Wei Tao to jam the zombie's neck with his other hand to block the zombie's attack. Lady Luck favored Wei Tao on the ground at this time, sending him Zhao Qiang instead of another zombie, and the cut-proof gloves also provided Wei Tao with the last protection.

Zhao Qiang listened carefully to the movement behind the door, and stretched out his hand to stop Wei Tao, who was about to forcibly open the door. "Can you still shoot?" Zhao Qiang asked in a low voice.

Wei Tao stopped opening the door, moved his right hand, and said affirmatively: "No problem, this little injury can't stop me." ”

Seeing this, Zhao Qiang nodded, took off the gun on his body and handed it to Wei Tao, saying, "I'll open the door, and you cover me." "If there are not survivors behind the door, but zombies, then Wei Tao, who is holding a gun, is obviously more important than Zhao Qiang.

Turning the doorknob slightly, Zhao Qiang found that the door was not actually locked. The zombies who were left with only biological instincts didn't remember how to open the door at all, only slammed the door panel desperately. Pushing the door open, Zhao Qiang quickly squatted down and stepped back, leaving room for Wei Tao on the side to shoot.

Behind the door was a bedroom-like room, already cluttered. In the corner near the window, a woman in civilian clothes was curled up on her knees. found that the door was open, the woman raised her head, looked at the door in despair, and after finding Zhao Qiang and Wei Tao, she buried her head back between her legs weakly. Wei Tao did not let down his vigilance, the room was not big, the situation inside could be understood at a glance, and he found that there was no other threat, Wei Tao's gun was still aimed at the girl.

Zhao Qiang and Wei Tao approached the shivering woman and stopped in a relatively safe position.

"Who are you?" Zhao Qiang asked.

Realizing that the people who came were not the zombies, the woman looked up again. It was a girl with a delicate face, with long hair and a shawl, and there was not a trace of cloudiness in her eyes, only fear and weakness. "Don't come here." The girl's voice sounded so weak, and her lips were bloodshot from chapping.

It's a survivor! Zhao Qiang and Wei Tao both breathed a sigh of relief that they had finally found the other survivors, which gave them more hope of finding their families.

Wei Tao took out his police ID card, revealed his identity, and after repeated persuasion with Zhao Qiang, the girl finally took off her defense. asked Zhao Qiang to escort the girl back to the car, and Wei Tao packed the oil pot he found earlier and all the food in the convenience store back to the car.

After eating something, the girl regained a lot of vitality and told her own situation under Zhao Qiang's patient inquiry.

The girl's name is Li Zihan, and she has been working in this gas station before. After work that day, in order to wait for the company's shuttle, she didn't go home and rested in the dormitory, but when she woke up, it was already that night. At this time, the disaster had happened, and after witnessing the gas station manager being eaten and skinned alive by several gas station employees he once knew, Li Zihan was frightened, and in desperation, he hid in the bedroom with a broken door lock, and never went out.

"You're in luck." Zhao Qiang glanced at Li Zihan, who was stuffing bread into his mouth, and the hungry girl couldn't care about anything to eat.

"Those guys won't open the door, or I wouldn't have lived to see you." After taking a sip of water and pushing the bread in his mouth into his stomach, Li Zihan said vaguely.

Wei Tao, who was sitting on the side, had just loaded a magazine, put it in the pocket of his tactical vest, and snatched a bag of potato chips that Li Zihan was about to open amid the girl's screams.

"You can't eat any more." Wei Tao's voice was a little cold, "If you eat it again, you will die." Looking at the messy food packaging bag on the bridge, the girl had already eaten five boxes of biscuits, three packets of bread and countless snacks, and even the water was the third bottle.

Zhao Qiang understood that Li Zihan hadn't eaten for almost four days, and when he suddenly looked at the food, the girl would hold herself to death, and he didn't know why he forgot this common sense, and he kept handing the girl food. Looking at the girl who was still unsatisfied, Zhao Qiang also stopped his unwise actions.

"Listen to him, he's for your good." Zhao Qiang pointed at Wei Tao, who continued to reload there, and smiled and comforted Li Zihan, who was frightened by Wei Tao's actions just now, "Just like he said, if you eat again, we will save you in vain." ”

Li Zihan was in tears, looking at the potato chips that Wei Tao threw on the driver's platform blankly, and suddenly cried "wow".

This move frightened Zhao Qiang, and Wei Tao, who looked indifferent, even missed a bullet.

It took Zhao Qiang a lot of effort to calm the crying Li Zihan, and Wei Tao returned to his appearance of not caring about himself and continued his loading work. Although she stopped crying, Li Zihan's shoulders were still twitching, but her mental condition was much better, and the shock she had received for many days was relieved at this moment.

Li Zihan looked at Zhao Qiang, then at Wei Tao, and finally turned his head to stare at Zhao Qiang: "Can you send me home?" My home is in Yueyang City, just send me off the highway. ”

Before Zhao Qiang could answer, Wei Tao replied categorically: "No!" ”

Seeing that Li Zihan's tears were about to gush out again, Zhao Qiang hurriedly jumped out to explain for Wei Tao: "Little girl, it's not that we don't want to help you, but we just came out of Yueyang, and there is ......" Halfway through the words, Zhao Qiang suddenly realized something and stopped.

"What's going on there? Say it quickly! Finding that Zhao Qiang wanted to speak and stopped, and then thinking of what happened these days, Li Zihan was anxious, she desperately grabbed Zhao Qiang's arm and shook it, wanting to know about Yue Yang's situation from Zhao Qiang.

Zhao Qiang couldn't bear to tell the girl the truth, when they left the armed police detachment and drove through Yueyang City, they didn't find any signs of human activity, Wei Tao, who was cold-hearted, didn't say anything, but he made a detour and searched in several key locations, but they couldn't find anything except the countless zombies that followed behind the car.

"Yue Yang is finished. There may be a few more shelters, but there's absolutely no way you'll ever make it to those places alive. Our direction is Changsha. Wei Tao was still a little indifferent, "You can have two choices, one is to stay here and find a way to go back to Yueyang by yourself, and the other is to follow us to Changsha." Zhao Qiang has the same destination as Wei Tao, and has a certain ability to protect himself, so Wei Tao did not refuse the decision to take Zhao Qiang to Changsha.

Li Zihan is a weak little girl who has not received any military training, and when the three of them act together, this girl is definitely a burden. Wei Tao didn't want to leave the girl to die here alone, but he didn't want to delay his already small amount of time for this girl he didn't know. It took nearly half a day to travel less than 70 kilometers, and during this time, he delayed so much time for this little girl, Wei Tao didn't know how long his relatives could hold out in this situation.

"Come with us, at least you'll be safe. Brother Wei and I can still provide you with some protection. Zhao Qiang softly persuaded Li Zihan that without any protection, this girl would not be able to go far and be torn apart by zombies. Wei Tao has already shattered Li Zihan's hope of returning home, and Zhao Qiang can only choose to give the girl hope from another aspect.

After hesitating for a long time, Li Zihan finally made up his mind: "I'll go with you." As she spoke, tears slid down her delicate face again.

Wei Tao didn't say anything, he had been waiting for this result, as a policeman, a man, Wei Tao was not willing to leave this girl alone on the side of the road, even if he didn't know her. Starting the car, the cash truck once again stepped into the unknown.
