Chapter 144, Ammunition

"You're all there in town?" Ding Xiu asked the survivors.

"All who are alive should be here." The old man nodded, he glanced at the cave where he and his companions were hiding, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart: "Fortunately, there is this cave to hide, we dug it decades ago to avoid zombies, and later it helped everyone escape the war. They all said that they would not use it again in the future, but this time, it was it that saved everyone's lives. ”

The old man's words made his companions sigh too.

"How do you live in the cave? Is there a passage to the outside? Ding Xiu asked again.

"Yes." The old man nodded, "There are two exits in the cave, one is here, and the other is next to the cistern outside. These days, we have survived on the stock of food in the warehouse, and now the stock of food is almost gone, and if you don't come, everyone will have to wait for death. ”

"Didn't you send someone outside to call for help?" Song Xijun was a little curious.

"Why didn't you send it?" The old man sighed, "I have been there three times, but there has been no news so far, you have also seen, the rest are old and weak women and children...... These cassourdouaries are so ferocious that they can disembowel people with a single claw. ”

When the old man said that he had his intestines open, Song Xijun glanced at Ding Xiu with palpitations, and Ding Xiu's back also had a faint pain.

Fortunately, the wound on his back was not deep, and after hiding in the warehouse, he was drugged and simply bandaged.

"There are too many mutant casshoubats, and there will definitely be casualties in the hard rush." Ding Xiu thought for a moment and said, "It's not a secret, we lack ammunition, and if there is enough ammunition, these cassowaries will not be in trouble." ”

"Ammunition?" The old man was stunned, as if he had thought of something, "There should be one in the security team's firearms storage room." ”

"Where is the firearms storage room?" Ding Xiu's eyes lit up, it was easy to say that there was ammunition, everyone only needed to hide in the warehouse and shoot at a fixed point, and most of the mutant fire-eaters could be effectively eliminated.

"On the west side of the farm." The old man pointed out the general direction to Ding Xiu.

Everyone asked the old man some questions, and they had a general understanding of the situation in this farm-like town. After Ding Xiu settled the survivors, he and his companions gathered together to discuss their next plans.

"Ammunition in the firearms storage room is critical." Ding Xiu said as he used his finger to draw a map of its location on the wooden board on the floor of the warehouse.

"But it's full of fire-eaters, how are we going to get there?" Song Xijun said with some concern.

"Aren't there two exits to the hole under the warehouse? One is here, the other is in the cistern, and when the time comes, you shoot here to get the attention of the cassquinates, and I'll go through the passage in the cave to the cistern, and then wait for the opportunity to sneak into the gun storage room. Ding Xiu said the plan he had in mind.

"Did you ever think there might be a firebird over there in the gun storage room?" Gu Beimo asked at him.

"Of course I did." Ding Xiu nodded, "It's because I thought about it that I went." ”

"I'll go with you, the two of you can take care of each other, and I can cover for you." Gu Beimo was not very relieved to let Ding Xiu go on an adventure alone.

"You can't go with me, we have to make sure that there is enough firepower here in the warehouse to contain the firewatch, otherwise there will be a lot of pressure on my side." Ding Xiu rejected Gu Beimo's suggestion, and smiled again: "Can't you still trust me?" ”

"No kidding, you tell us, how sure are you?" Gu Beimo looked at Ding Xiu with a straight face.

"Seventy percent?" Ding Xiu thought for a moment, "It should be enough, right?" ”

"You have to be careful." Gu Beimo told again.

While everyone was talking, suddenly the screams of children came from the warehouse, and the survivors were in a mess and hid in the corners.

"Monster! There are monsters in the car! "They panicked, and some of them fell to the ground while running.

"Silver!" Shen You shouted to stop the figure running out of the car.

It turned out that a child heard a sound in the back compartment of the off-road pickup, and he ran over to open the door out of curiosity, only to surprise the survivors by jumping out of the car thinking he was allowed to come out.

"Don't be afraid, it's my pet." Shen You called the silver coin to his side, telling it not to run around.

"This ...... Is this a pet? Someone exclaimed.

"The silver won't hurt you, it's different from those cassowrants, which are very grumpy." Shen You stroked the hair on the silver coin's body, signaling everyone to relax and not be afraid of it.

These people stared at each other with big eyes, and they all looked at each other, although there was Shen You's assurance, but no one dared to get close for half a minute.

"When are we going to get started?" Gu Beimo ignored the survivors, his mind was still on the plan discussed just now, "Do you want to wait for the evening?" ”

"Don't wait for the evening, get ready, act immediately." Ding Xiu's biggest reliance and hole card is the war paint, but the increase in reaction power brought by the power of the war paint is affected by his eyesight and vision, especially at night, which will be very limited.

Everyone had no objection to Ding Xiu's decision, and immediately began to act. Gu Beimo and Song Xijun occupied the windows on the east and west sides, shooting at the cassowary outside the window, both of them were pointed, and deliberately attracted the firesowary on the west side of the warehouse gradually.

The purpose of their actions was to clear the obstacles near the cistern so that Ding Xiu could calmly pass through to the gun storage room.

"Xiaoyou, you and the silver coin protect Lao Gu and Xijun, and also pay attention to the emotions of those survivors, don't let them panic, and save us trouble." When he was about to leave, Ding Xiu whispered a word of advice to Shen You.

Shen You nodded, "You have to be careful, too." ”

Ding Xiu found someone among the survivors to take him down to the hole under the warehouse, and as soon as he entered it, a foul smell rushed to his nose.

The survivors lived in the cave for a long time, eating and drinking almost all of them here, and in addition to defecation, there was a lot of household garbage.

Ding Xiu endured the stench inside and followed behind the passer-by.

The light in the cave was relatively dim, but it could be seen that there was a lot of space inside, and after Ding Xiu walked out of a distance, he came to a passage.

"Follow the passage until the end, and go out next to the cistern." The man who led the way said to him, and said, "The walls and the ground are a little slippery, be careful of your step." ”

"Thank you!" Ding Xiu nodded.

"Usually there are almost no people in Sangzhi Town, and your appearance is really surprising, and for us, it is like the dawn." The person who led the way glanced at Ding Xiu, his eyes full of gratitude.

"The light of day only belongs to those who want to live." Ding Xiu smiled and encouraged her: "It's not easy for you to hold on for so long. ”

Ding Xiu chatted with the person who led the way for a few words to relax his spirits. It is expected that there will be a hard battle, so he has been adjusting his state along the way.

"The exit is here." The two climbed up a slope in the passage, and the leader pointed to the position above their heads, "There is a cistern next to it, you need to be careful." ”

"Okay, you go back first." Ding Xiu nodded.

"I'm waiting here for your news." Said the man who led the way.

"Okay, if things go well, you can call some people over and help carry things." After Ding Xiu finished speaking, he focused his attention on the top of his head, he put his ear on the board at the top, listened to the movement outside for a while, and then gently pushed it up into a gap.

The sound of gunfire and light came in through the cracks, one reaching Ding Xiu's ears and the other falling on his face.

There were no cassquaries nearby, and they were all attracted around the warehouse by the sound of gunfire.

Ding Xiu pushed open the board that covered the passage, and the man got out and covered the board again.

Next to it is a large pool made of concrete, and there are some bones scattered around the edge of the pool. Those were human bones, and the survivors here were in danger of dying every time they came to the pool to fetch water, and many lost their lives here, but their sacrifices were not entirely useless, at least the rest of the people could live a little longer if they had water.

Stepping over those white bones, Ding Xiu bent his waist and quietly ran towards the house to the west.

The location of the firearms storage room is there, and Ding Xiu needs to go over to find the ammunition and bring it back to the passage of the cave.

The gunfire in the direction of the warehouse was very rhythmic, and Gu Beimo and Song Xijun were not in a hurry to lure the firebirds, the advantage of this was that they could save bullets and achieve a better containment effect.

Under the cover of the cistern and trees, Ding Xiu slowly approached the houses to the west of the warehouse, where the gun storage room was located, but it was not easy to find it.

There were some voices nearby suddenly, and these movements aroused Ding Xiu's vigilance, although most of the cassowaries were attracted to the direction of the warehouse, but he didn't dare to be careless. Because, according to the survivors of the farm, there are also some "big guys" who are more than two and a half meters tall.

These "big guys" did not appear near the warehouse, so Ding Xiu was extra careful in his actions. When he heard the movement, he stopped and hid his form under the eaves.

A tall figure passed in front of the house, pacing unhurriedly, as if on patrol.

"It seems that what they say is true, there really is such a big cassophory!" Ding Xiu hid in the gap between the two houses, and was quite surprised when he caught a glimpse of the figure flashing outside.

The nearly three-meter-tall cassowara was still terrifying, and the kind outside the warehouse was like a miniature version of the figure just now. Ding Xiu didn't bring a bioidentifier, so he didn't know the mutation level of this "big guy", and he estimated that it must be the same as those miniature versions, because the size of the body can more or less reflect the combat effectiveness and danger of the mutated creature.

After waiting in the gap for a while, Ding Xiu quietly poked his head out, and saw that the huge mutant cassohora just now no longer knew where it had gone, so he dodged out of the gap and continued to look for the house.
