Chapter 20: The Brothers' Reunion
Qin Tian drove the car intently, avoiding the zombies on the road from time to time, and when he heard Xu Fan's words, he said without looking back: "The gas is enough, but I'm not sure that the urban area can go through it directly, there are so many zombies in this county, and the roads are jammed like that, our Y city should be even more congested." ”
After hearing this, several people nodded in agreement, it is indeed the case, if it is a detour, it will have to bypass the entire urban area, which is equivalent to twice the distance, and the oil will definitely not be enough. Parking equals increased risk, and if it's not necessary, it's better not to park or not to park.
The four of them stopped parking and drove directly out of the city to Y City. About two hours later, the four of them arrived near the city, and there were obviously more cars on the road, all of which were blocked on the road, and Qin Tian could only pass through the middle of the vehicles carefully, and bumped and bumped from time to time.
Qin Tian was worried that he would drive in again, and when the time came, the front would be blocked, and he wouldn't be able to turn around. However, after this section of the road, the space on the road is significantly larger, and there are not many cars parked on both sides.
Just when Qin Tian was strange, Yu Yu pointed to the front and shouted: "Look, there are people in front, and there seem to be a lot of them." ”
A few people looked fixedly, there were indeed people in a commercial office building in front of them, and there were many people, could it be a rescue team?
Xu Fan took out his binoculars and looked at the building, but the car kept turning so much that everyone else was dizzy, and he didn't see what was going on inside.
"Slow down, slow down, take a look at the situation first, what if it's a roadblock?" Xu Fan continued to look with a telescope without giving up.
Yang Ting said in disbelief: "How is it possible, the zombies have only been out for a few days, and someone has started to block the road and organize so many people to rob." ”
Qin Tian and the others couldn't see clearly, so they could only drive closer, and then probe carefully. The front of the whole building was crowded with zombies, and someone upstairs saw Qin Tian's car coming, and immediately someone shouted with a loudspeaker: "You can come in from the back, the front is occupied by zombies!" ”
Before Qin Tian could react, Xu Fan suddenly shouted loudly: "It's Xiaoyu's kid, he's still alive, it's great." Qin Tian and Yang Ting hurriedly looked up, it was indeed Wang Yu, holding a machete in his hand, not bought, but the kind of machete forged from good steel that he had processed.
Qin Tian immediately accelerated to bypass the zombies in front of the building, drove to the back of the building, and entered the courtyard through the gate. Before a few people got out of the car, more than a dozen people held knives at a few people, and the faces of several people suddenly became ugly, it couldn't be a real robbery, right?
Xu Fan said angrily at Wang Yu: "What are you kid doing, we don't know each other anymore?" When Wang Yu saw a few people getting out of the car, he recognized that it was a few of them, and immediately laughed: "Why are you?" I thought I'd never see you again, it's so nice! ”
Qin Tian looked at the people who still hadn't put down their knives, his face was still solemn, and the knives in his hands were tightened. Wang Yu saw Qin Tian's expression, and hurriedly reassured: "Don't worry, Xiaotian, we have no malicious intentions, it's just that someone came to us before, but he was bitten but didn't tell us, and later he became a zombie and killed a lot of people, so all the new arrivals in the back must be isolated, and we are also worried about encountering that kind of situation again." ”
After listening to Wang Yu's words, several people secretly breathed a sigh of relief, once they were bitten by a snake for ten years and were afraid of the well rope, this is also human nature, isolate it, isolate it, anyway, it is just to stay here for the time being and find out the situation.
Qin Tian and the others put away their weapons, and then said: "Everyone, we are just passing by, staying for a while, by the way, to inquire about the situation, we will leave tomorrow, if it is inconvenient, we will leave immediately." ”
One of the sturdy men on the opposite side said: "We were originally spontaneously gathered together, you come to join us, of course we welcome it, just like Xiaoyu said before, we have to guard against it, so you must be alone in the same room today and tomorrow." ”
Qin Tian said indifferently: "Of course there is no problem. Then he made a gesture of invitation and motioned for the other party to lead the way.
Outside the door of a room on the third floor, after Qin Tian and the others entered, Wang Yu immediately said: "Brother Cheng, I am also quarantined with them, our brothers haven't seen each other for so long, and we have a lot to say." The sturdy man named Brother Cheng nodded and said, "Whatever you want, we'll send you food later, but we don't have many supplies, so we may not be full." ”
One of the several people who followed Brother Cheng said: "Brother Cheng, we don't have much in the first place, and it's dangerous to go out to search for resources, so why give them for no reason." ”
Brother Cheng shook his head and said: "It's okay, if they join us, they will be part of us in the future, in this place full of zombies, we have to unite to live." The man muttered his displeasure, but didn't say anything.
Qin Tian looked at the man's appearance and said to Brother Cheng with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Cheng, we still have something for ourselves, so we won't eat your food, and we will leave early tomorrow morning." ”
Brother Cheng smiled embarrassedly at a few people, didn't say anything, and after a few people went in, he closed the door and locked it from the outside and left with a few people.
The room is still quite large, a bit like a conference room, and a few people randomly chose a place to lie down and sit.
Xu Fan patted Wang Yu and said with a smile: "It's really good that your kid is alive, we all said we came to you before, but I didn't expect to meet you as soon as I came." ”
Wang Yu also said happily: "Who said no, at the beginning, I was scared to death, I got up early in the morning, the whole world is different, if it weren't for my cleverness and locking myself in the dormitory, I guess I would have been the same as the group of things outside, how did you escape and run around the world?" ”
Qin Tian patted Wang Yu on the shoulder and asked, "Xiaoyu, have you contacted your family?" ”
When Wang Yu heard Qin Tian's question, he said a little gloomily: "I have been contacted, but I can't get in touch, what about you?" ”
Yang Ting said at this time: "We also called, but no one answered, we just wanted to go home and see what was going on at home, so we drove back." ”
Qin Tian continued: "Xiaoyu, tell me what you know, let's get ready, and besides, will you go back with us tomorrow to see?" ”
Wang Yu said loudly: "Of course I want to go back, we have been advancing and retreating together since we were children, how can I be missing, and when zombies first appeared before, I wanted to go back, but I was surrounded by zombies on the road, if it wasn't for Brother Cheng saving me, I guess I would have been eaten by zombies." ”
Qin Tian nodded and said, "Then Xiaoyu, do you know the situation near the city and near home?" ”
Wang Yu sighed and said: "You have also seen the situation nearby, you can't go far at all, there is still a gate in front of it, we cleaned up the zombies outside from the crack in the door, so we dare to let you drive in, in a far place, we don't dare to go, let alone the development zone is so far." ”
After hearing this, Yu Yu asked on the side: "Then there are so many of you, if you don't go out to find food, even if this building has a mountain of rice and a mountain, sooner or later it will be emptied?" ”
Wang Yu looked at such a big beauty, and the third person asked, "Who is this beauty?" ”
Yu Yu stood up with a smile and stretched out his hand to Wang Yu to introduce himself and said, "My name is Yu Yu, they are my saviors, and now they are companions!" ”
Wang Yu was stunned after hearing this, what kind of life-saving benefactor? Qin Tian smiled and said to Yu Yu: "Don't talk nonsense, what kind of life-saving benefactor, this is what I told you before, our brother Wang Yu from childhood to adulthood, you can just call him Xiaoyu." ”
Yu Yu stuck out his tongue, nodded with a smile and said hello, Wang Yu shook hands with Yu Yu, and then nodded with a smile, which can be regarded as acquaintance.
Wang Yu replied to Yu Yu's question and said: "Now in this building, there are about fifty or sixty survivors, more than 40 men and more than 20 women, in addition to the old people and children, there are also injured men, and there are only more than 20 intact. ”
"Haven't you ever been out?"
"Why didn't I go out, there were five people who spontaneously teamed up to go out to find food, but they didn't go far, they met zombies, went out five, and only came back in the end, and then that person was scratched, we didn't dare to let him in, for fear that he would become a zombie, that person cut himself off outside, and no one dared to go out again!" Wang Yu's voice became lower and lower as he spoke, and finally it was almost inaudible.
Qin Tian and the others could only pat Wang Yu's shoulder to show comfort. However, a few people also know the ferocity of the zombies outside, so they can't say how those people outside are, it's better to be alive than anything else, even if they are alive.
Several people chatted until the evening, Yu Yu took out the beef jerky and water in the backpack and signaled everyone to eat, Wang Yu looked at the food of the four people's backpacks, and asked incredulously: "Did you rob the supermarket?" How can there be so much food? ”
Qin Tian said with a smile: "Actually, as long as you overcome the fear in your heart, be careful when you go out, and use some tricks, there is no problem at all in getting some food." ”
Wang Yu sighed and said: "It's easy to say, but it's hard to do, those people outside don't say that they overcome fear, but when they are distributed, they start to think about it when they are a little uneven, not to mention asking them to risk their lives to go out to find resources, and then share them with others." ”
"Then if they go on like this, they will either die when they run out of food, or they still have to risk their lives to find food, and instead of starving to find resources, it is better to prepare now." Xu Fan said speechlessly, when the time comes, there will be no strength to eat, and it is not more dangerous to go out, this truth is understood by fools, I really can't figure it out, why can these people be selfish like this.
Qin Tian said to Wang Yu: "Then you should hurry with us tomorrow, and our brothers will take care of each other in the future." Wang Yu nodded in agreement.
It didn't take long for Wang Yu to suddenly think of something, and said loudly: "By the way, I remembered, there was an old man who was rescued before, he came from the countryside over there to visit relatives, he should know something, we can ask him tomorrow, it seems that his surname is Liu, to Uncle Liu." ”
