Chapter Eighty-Four: Breaking Out of the Zombie Encirclement
A speeding motorcycle, an old and broken motorcycle, carrying a man on it, and the big stereo in the back of the car was playing the 'most dazzling' song.
When the motorcycle reached this intersection, the speed dropped somewhat, but the loud music did not diminish at all, and the ears trembled. The man on the motorcycle wore a pair of toad glasses, and the strange hairstyle on his head did not know how much gel he had made, or how many years he had not washed it, and he looked shiny in the sunlight; An old-fashioned leather jacket on the top, a pair of colorful jeans on the bottom, and a pair of rubber shoes on the feet...... Anyway, there is dirt and blood all over the body, so it's not fancy.
"I said," Di Yan said helplessly, "What kind of style are you......?"
The motorcyclist tilted his head to look at us, and even through his sunglasses, he could see that he had seven expressions of disbelief and eight resentment. Then he raised his head and snorted coldly, and threw out a sentence: "A group of turtles!" ”
Then the bike turned again and headed south, leaving behind only the deafening sound of singing and clouds of dust.
"I ......" Di Yan was unhappy, and scolded at the back of the motorcycle: "I will grass your uncle's eggs!" ”
It's rare to hear Di Yan scolding, but this is not the time to care about this. I dragged him up, then closed the door and said, "Brother Li, let's go!" ”
The motorcyclist is singing so loudly that it will definitely attract a lot of zombies, and we must get out of here as soon as possible.
Li Chuanhe, who was holding the water bottle, heard this, hurriedly twisted the bottle cap and threw it aside, and then started the car directly. The moment we left the intersection, zombies were already appearing on the streets to the west.
Di Yan, who was dragged into the car by me, sat up and straightened his collar, looked at the motorcycle in front of him and said angrily: "Who is this!?" Dress up like a grandson and provoke us nonsensically!? Oxen drive slower than your broken motorcycle, and see if I don't shoot you with an arrow!" ”
Everyone was more surprised than angry about the motorcycle man's behavior, where did such a second goods come from......
This kind of riding a motorcycle to play songs is not uncommon in the past, there used to be a person riding a motorcycle to play songs in front of our college walked more than ten times back and forth, I really don't know what mentality.
But what I care about the most is that it's the end of the world, this Yutian City is full of zombies, that person still dares to make such a big move, he doesn't want to live and doesn't care about others. After the initial stunned, I had the heart to take a gun to destroy the man, and then turn off the broken stereo, but when I saw Di Yan's angry energy, I suppressed my anger again.
Li Chuanhe didn't need me to remind us, and directly told us to change the way quickly and let everyone sit down. We can't follow that motorcycle, or we'll fall into the zombie pile at any point.
The motorcycle drove far ahead, and as soon as his singing passed, the roar of zombies followed. After that, there were a lot of zombies coming out of almost every corner of the road, and the road would soon be blocked.
Li Chuanhe looked at the route, and after going forward for a while, he turned left directly and began to drive east.
After turning the corner, Di Yan's temperament was gone, and he began to play the role of a reporter, asking others one by one how they felt about the motorcycle just now.
Looking at the frequently changing expression on Di Yan's face, and thinking about his previous behavior, I always felt that he was so angry just now in order to make me not impulsive.
"Ye Zi, as a singer, what do you think of the 'motorcycle pop' just now?" Di Yan took a water bottle and held it up in front of the leaf again.
The girl pursed the corners of her lips and said nothing.
Without waiting for Di Yan to ask again, Li Chuanhe in front suddenly greeted and said, "Look ahead, it's a bit bad!" ”
I don't need to ask and I understand what he means, looking out from the front windshield, I saw that a large number of zombies appeared in front of the road, and the road was blocked. And everywhere we passed, there were zombies constantly emerging from the side of the street.
Li Chuanhe drove forward for more than ten meters and then turned again, turning right into another road. The road was much narrower than before, and small stalls began to appear on both sides.
Meow, don't run into the vegetable market again, if there are zombies on such a narrow road, we won't have anywhere to run.
"Brother Shi, Xiaoxin's head is a little hot!" Xiaoyu said suddenly.
I glanced back, Hu Xiaoxin was still asleep, and his face was already a little red.
"Brother Li, be careful!" I instructed, and then leaned over and touched Hu Xiaoxin's forehead, it was indeed a little hot, probably a fever.
It is obviously not a good thing to carry a sick number on the way to escape, and infected people will also have a fever. Xiaoyu checked her before, and she didn't find any injuries on Hu Xiaoxin's body, so the chance of being infected is not great, but it can't be ruled out.
If this were a stranger, I wouldn't hesitate to throw her out of the car, but after all, we had a relationship, and I had questions for her, so I had to take her first.
I asked Xiaoyu to sit with Lin Yue, and I sat next to Hu Xiaoxin, called her a few times, and saw that there was no response, so I had to help her, and I paid attention to the situation outside. Even if I don't want to hurt this girl, if she mutates, I'll kill her as soon as possible.
Where the car passed, there would also be zombies coming out on both sides, some wearing down jackets, and some were typical 'hawker outfits', and it seemed that they had really arrived at the vegetable market.
After a while, a large group of 'tails' were already following behind the car. There were also some sporadic zombies in front of him, Li Chuanhe's forehead was already sweating, he drove the car very carefully, trying to avoid the zombies and drive forward. But even so, you still bump into a few from time to time, and the front windshield starts to crack.
I instructed, "Bring everything but the oil drums, this time it may be difficult to leave." ”
Everyone didn't dare to relax, each took his own weapon, and the boys also put on their backpacks.
But it seems to be overly worried, because soon we see the road ahead. Li Chuanhe immediately increased the throttle and drove over.
As soon as the front of the car drove out of the alley, just when Li Chuanhe was about to turn a corner, he was suddenly stunned, only to see that both sides of the road were full of zombies, and the music of the motorcycle could be faintly heard here.
Li Chuanhe didn't dare to slack off, didn't turn around, and drove headlong into the opposite lane.
"I'm telling you, I should have given the motorcycle a shot just now!" Di Yan said coldly from behind.
No one responded, but I guess that's what everyone thinks.
Now the place where I walk is a real vegetable market, and all kinds of messy miscellaneous items are all over the ground. The car drove about 100 meters to a small bridge, and after crossing the bridge, it was a detour. As soon as Li Chuanhe turned the corner, he directly stepped on the brake.
Resisting the inertia of the brakes, I looked up and saw dozens of zombies dozens of meters ahead, and there seemed to be more and more trends! This road was already narrow, but this time it was sealed, and there were no forks on both sides, so we could only reverse.
"Look at the back!"
As soon as Li Chuanhe reversed the car back into a detour, the sound of the leaves came out. Everyone looked back, and saw that from the entrance of the alley where we had just entered, a large number of zombies had begun to pour in.
"It's time to make dumplings!" Di Yan put away his cynical smile, and his face became serious at this time.
Li Chuanhe said sharply after a quick observation: "There are too many of them, and if you drive hard, you will definitely fall into the zombie pile!" ”
Originally, when I saw so many zombies, I didn't think that the car would be able to rush out, but this time the old driver said that it was even more certain.
At this moment, my eyes were fixed on the small bridge that I had just passed behind, and then I hurriedly said loudly: "Stop, everyone go down, don't turn off the fire yet!" ”
The speed was already very low, so I opened the door and jumped off as soon as I finished speaking, and ran straight to the bridge.
There is a gap next to the bridge railing and the ground, which allows you to slide directly down the dirt slope. Under the bridge is a river, the surface of the water is muddy and dirty, floating all kinds of garbage, but it should not be very deep, and there is a riverbed next to it, but there are still three zombies wandering there.
Three is better than nearly a hundred, and this is the only way out for us.
I turned around and saw that everyone got out of the car and followed, Shi Yao was holding the unconscious Hu Xiaoxin, and Meow was shrinking in Xiaoyu's arms.
Seeing that the zombies on both sides were getting closer and closer, I pulled out the real night and immediately said: "I'll go down to deal with those few first, and you will jump down immediately when you're done, after Dalin Xiaoqi is broken!" ”
Xiao Qi and Da Lin are the two people in this team who are most capable of dealing with large groups of zombies alone. As I spoke, I went straight through the gap that only allowed one person to pass at a time, and then I slid down the slope of the dirt with a steep slope. Originally, this slope could be used for running, but the riverbed below did not have such a large open space for me to lose my strength, and if I was not careful, I would rush into the river, and then there would be more accidents. So now you can only use this position.
The slide was so fast that in an instant it wiped my butt and thighs, and I poked my palms several times, grazing a few rocks and sticks in the process. Ignoring the pain, I slipped to the riverbed, kicked the zombie facing me with my right foot by inertia, and kicked it into the ditch, and my body stopped sliding.
At this time, a disgusting and choking smell instantly entered my nose, which was emitted by this stinky river ditch. But I didn't dare to pause, the two zombies next to me had already pounced, but fortunately they were both standing aside. I immediately got up and stabbed the first one with my knife. The tip of the knife instantly pierced the zombie's eyeball, and I raised my leg to kick the zombie away, pulled out the blade, and then stepped forward to face the second one.
I also stabbed this one to death with the tip of the knife, and before I could react, I suddenly heard a sound of breaking wind behind me, I subconsciously shrank down, and then pulled out the blade and turned my head to look.
I saw Su Qi standing on the slope, still maintaining the posture of archery, and the first zombie I kicked into the river had just gotten up and had already been shot in the head and poured into the water on its back.
This time I also saw that there were still two zombies hidden under the bridge, and before I could make a move, Di Yan had already slid down, carrying a crossbow on his back, and pulled out and slashed. The knife rushed towards the two monsters.
Not daring to delay, I immediately said to the above: "Come down!" ”
Chen Rui hurriedly beckoned the girl to jump first. I stood up and shouted, "Run straight down, I'll continue!" ”
The rocks on the slope were knocked apart by Di Yan and me, but there were still a lot of remains, and it would be bad if they slipped down like us, and it would be bad if they were scratched, and it would be much faster to run down than to slide.
The first one to run down was Lin Yue, she and Su Qi were the best among the girls, a few big strides came to me, I kicked the ground with my hind legs, opened my hands to catch Lin Yue, and after a short period of slow relief, I hugged her aside, and the second light rain was about to run down.
When all the girls came down, my arms and legs were slightly sore from the force of the multiple downstrokes. At this time, Shi Yao stood in the gap with the unconscious Hu Xiaoxin in his arms and shouted to me: "Get out of the way!" Then he hugged Hu Xiaoxin on it, and he slid down directly, his posture can make Hu Xiaoxin not hurt, and it can also make me breathe, but Shi Yao's back can suffer.
I hurriedly took two steps back. Shi Yao had already slipped to the riverbed with Hu Xiaoxin in his arms, and then kicked the ground viciously, and his body stopped instantly, and I immediately helped Shi Yao and the others aside to ask about the situation. Shi Yao immediately shook his head to indicate that he was fine, I think he wouldn't say it even if it hurt him again, not to mention that soldiers don't eat dry food in the army every day. Then there was Li Chuanhe, who came down very smoothly. When the last Chenrui came down, he turned around and shouted, "Let's go!" ”
After saying that, Chen Rui also ran down. After I caught him, I didn't see Lin and Qiren, but I only heard a series of fighting sounds coming from the bridge, mixed with the sound of whirring fans.
In a few moments, I saw a zombie walk up to a gap in the slope, and the first two found us and pounced on the slope, which quickly turned into rolling down. I dodged the road and let the two zombies roll into the water, and then Chen Rui and Li Chuanhe stepped forward to kill them.
The zombies above were about to go down, when a large gate board suddenly flew out next to it, directly knocking out a few zombies.
"His grandmother's!" Lin Qiuwan's figure stood up, holding a piece of door panel that he didn't know where to remove with both hands, and his huge body was blocking the gap, and shouted at the same time: "Brother Xiaodao, hurry up!" ”
With the words, Xiao Qi's figure appeared next to the railing of the bridge, after he cut down the two zombies, he supported the railing with one hand, turned over directly, jumped down, and landed steadily on the riverbed.
Seeing this, Lin Qiuwan didn't stay any longer, took out another door and threw it away, turned around and ran down the dirt slope.
I'm angry! How much impact does he have to be of this size!?
I didn't have time to think about it, I watched the behemoth rush down, and immediately diverted my steps, subconsciously tensing the muscles of my whole body, ready to harden the next.
"I'm grass!" Di Yan, who had already rushed back, scolded and immediately stood beside me, and was also ready to help me catch Lin Qiuwan, who had come down. Chenrui and they also want to help, but it's too late!
Boom!
There was a dull sound, and my arm was not under the pressure I imagined, but Lin Qiuwan's body had stopped.
At this time, Xiao Qi was standing between me and Di Yan, Tang Dao pierced into the soil behind him, and his hands firmly caught Lin Qiuwan's impact, but his body did not shake in the slightest.
After Lin Qiuwan stood up, Xiao Qi shook his hands, frowned lightly and said to me, "Don't be reckless." ”
I nodded, and without waiting for a sound, Di Yan patted Da Lin on the head and said, "You dare to run down such a big piece!" If it weren't for Seventh Brother here, you would have killed both of us! Is it okay to think about the consequences!? ”
Lin Qiuwan was still in a state of transformation, pouting and squirping with her nose, she didn't speak, but she gave Di Yan a blank look.
"Hey!? You're still ......."
"Shut up! Come on! I interrupted. At this time, there are zombies rolling down the slope and the bridge.
I pulled Lin Qiuwan away, stabbed the zombie that had just fallen, and then beckoned everyone to run.
The people in front began to take the lead along the riverbed, and Lin Qiuwan caught up with Hu Xiaoxin, who took Shi Yao's hand, and carried it on his shoulder.
"Okay!?" Shi Yao asked quickly.
"No problem!"
Seeing that Lin Qiuwan's face was not red or panting, Shi Yao did not ink, and continued to retreat.
At first, I walked at the end of the line, and after getting rid of the zombies behind, I walked to the front, and Xiao Qi stayed at the end.
Thirteen men and a cat lined up in a column and ran quickly eastward, the riverbed getting narrower and narrower, but it was still no problem to walk in columns. We threw off the zombies in the back, but there were some on the shore on the slope next to us who were screaming at us. If it weren't for those iron railings that are more than half a man high, I am afraid that they would have fallen from above.
"Da Lin, if Hu Xiaoxin wakes up or starts humming, you can put her down quickly."
"Okay!"
After a long walk along the riverbed, there were zombies on both sides of the slope, so we had to keep going.
In the past half a month, I have been riding more cars than walking, but I didn't expect to be forced to get out of the car so quickly, and I have to walk on such potholed dirt roads. Now that there are not only pets in the team, but also a sick number, I really don't know how many twists and turns it will take to go to the safety station.
After another 100 meters or so, I stopped. The flat riverbed in front of us is gone, and the water level here is a little higher than before, and if you want to continue walking, you can only drip. There were still zombies roaring on the banks of the river above, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't climb over the railing. But it's not easy for us to go up.
"We're not going to walk out of the water, are we?" Ziqing asked in the back, her face was not very good-looking.
The other girls were the same, looking at the river with bitter faces. The river water is dirty and smelly, just smelling it on the side is about to be smoked, if you really want to walk in, maybe a few more will spit out, even Di Yan didn't talk any more nonsense along the way, just shut up and walked forward.
I thought about it for a while, but I decided that I couldn't go into the water. There is everything in this kind of stinky gutter in the suburbs, even if there are no zombies, fish and shrimp, leeches or whatever, the garbage and excrement alone are enough, not to mention bacteria and microorganisms. And I don't know how far it will be if we go on like this, but this direction has been going east, but we have to go south, and if we go eastward like this, we will be farther and farther away from our destination.
I turned my head to look at the river bank above the slope, and saw that there were not many zombies outside the railing. Immediately, his heart was crossed, and he said: "Di Yan, Xiao Qi, Shi Yao, follow me up and open a way!" ”
