Chapter 46 Food Processing Plants
On the roof of a three-story building on the side of the road, there was a figure who had just shot an arrow at us, and I immediately rushed in to find the guy, I can't be sure of the other person's intentions, but if this person is not good, then I will split him first.
I climbed up the stairs to the third floor, but I didn't see any zombies all the way, but dried blood stained almost every step, and I kept making a disgusting sound as I stepped on it. The first and second floors are in the form of halls, while the third floor is all private rooms, and past a broken leg next to the service desk, I ran down the corridor looking for a ladder to get to the roof. Finally found the staircase that led to the top at the end of the hallway.
Three steps and two steps forward, I stopped in front of the door. Lin Yang and the others quickly chased after them, and just as they were about to speak, I quickly made a silent gesture. Everyone hurriedly stopped in the hallway, all eyes on me.
I withdrew my knife and pulled out my gun instead to open the safe. Holding the door with his left hand, he silently counted three times in his heart, and then pushed the door open directly and retracted his body to the wall. Along with the light, there was a black shadow, and with a whoosh, the black shadow flew on the opposite wall, and it was another arrow.
At that moment I turned and rushed out, and saw two people beside the rooftop, one of whom was holding a bow in his hand, and was facing this side with an arrow again. When I raised my hand, it was a shot.
"Stop!"
At the same time as the gun rang out, the man next to the archer shouted. But that doesn't stop the bullets from coming out. I fired it at the archer, but he didn't fall.
"Stop it!" The man next to him pushed the archer arm away, and at the same time pointed at me with the guy in his hand, and said, "You put the gun down!" ”
I glanced at the kid with my eyes, dressed in a military field uniform, with the rank of senior soldier on his shoulder, and a Type 95 in his hand, although I didn't know much about firearms, but it used to be common in games.
It was obviously not a wise move to use 64 against someone else's 95, and the archer had no intention of attacking again, so I slowly put down my gun.
The senior soldier breathed a sigh of relief and said to me, "Don't be nervous, we don't have any ill will. ”
"Fart!" I glared at the archer and scolded, "Why shoot us!" ”
The archer didn't speak, and the senior soldier put down his gun and explained, "We saw you downstairs just now, and the arrow is to tell you that there are people here." I think you also know that too loud can attract zombies, so that's the only way to do it. ”
"What about this arrow just now, if I hadn't dodged it, I would have died now!"
The senior soldier looked at me embarrassedly, glared at the archer next to him, and said, "Well, don't get me wrong, we were a little nervous just now." ”
At this time, Lin Yang and the others also chased after them, and when they saw the two of them, they were stunned and asked, "Leizi, what's going on?" ”
I didn't answer, but the soldier waved his hand and said, "It was a misunderstanding just now, don't pay attention. ”
"Did I misunderstand you!" Gao Xiaohan scolded and was about to rush forward: "Brother Shi Lei almost ...... just now"
I pulled Xiao Han back and motioned him not to say much, after all, we are not enough for the soldiers.
The soldier gritted his teeth and scratched his head, and continued to explain, "Please calm down, we really ......"
"Alright, tell me who you are and what you are doing here."
The senior soldier straightened his face and said, "Okay, I'm here to guard and guide the survivors, there is a temporary survivor gathering point in the east, our company is stationed, you can go there, but first let's check." ”
"What do you mean?"
"I'm going to check on you for any injuries, weapons and equipment, there are also a large number of survivors at the gathering point, we have to keep them safe, and we need your cooperation."
"Why should I believe you?"
The soldier came to his senses, hastily took out a small notebook from his pocket, and said, "This is my ID." ”
I frowned secretly, this soldier seemed to be stranger than a recruit's egg with his papers.
I stepped forward to take it, and handed it to Shami, anyway, I can't understand it, so it's better to let her verify it. After a brief review, Shami handed me the document and nodded with a smile.
I took it and glanced at the name, Li Guoqing. And then it was returned to him.
"That's okay," Private Li Guoqing said, "Now the man will go with me, and the woman will go with Xiao Zhang." As he spoke, he pointed to the archer.
"Hey! You asked a guy to check it on us? Lin Yue was not happy.
Li Guoqing was stunned for a moment, then smiled innocently and said, "Xiao Zhang is an authentic girl. ”
Before she could finish speaking, the archer removed the turban that wrapped around her head, and a long flowing hair fell over her shoulders. I'm angry, just a little farther away, plus a decent figure, I also see her as a man, and now she looks quite delicate.
This time, Lin Yue and the others were silent, and I asked again, "Where to check." ”
Li Guoqing said: "Two private rooms on the third floor. After speaking, he turned around and picked up the walkie-talkie on the ground, pressed a button and said, "Dong San, Dong San, this is Dong Gui!" ”
"Dong San received, Dong Gui, please speak."
"There are eleven survivors in total, bring them for inspection now, pay attention to vigilance! Complete! ”
"Dong San understands, it's over!"
After speaking, Li Guoqing also waved at the roof of a building opposite. I looked up and saw that there were two figures shaking on the roof of the building, and I said how could he leave his post to check on us, and this beckoning action was also done for us to see.
Li Guoqing and Xiao Zhang walked to the door leading downstairs, Xiao Zhang paused when he passed in front of me, put his face close to me, pointed to a small bleeding cut on his cheekbone, gritted his teeth and said, "You remember it for me!" ”
It seems that the shot just now did not miss the target. She wiped the blood with her headscarf, glared at me and walked away. was scratched on the face by a bullet that was discharged, she was able to endure the pain without saying a word, and this girl was not an ordinary person.
After that, we men were taken into a private room by Li Guoqing for inspection, and it was not a pleasant thing to be looked at by a man with our shirtless trouser legs, just look at Gao Xiaohan's tangled face.
The scar on Xiao Qi's back startled Li Guoqing, and the tattoo on his arm made him pay attention to it for a long time, and even Gao Xiaohan couldn't help but take a few more looks, and exclaimed handsome.
I thought he would have to take away our weapons, and we'd definitely not hand them over, and we'd have to have another argument. Unexpectedly, Li Guoqing only checked our ammunition and cold weapons once, and then returned them to us.
During this period, I asked Li Guoqing from time to time about the place he told him about the security center, but he was unwilling to disclose it, so he had to give up in the end.
After the inspection, Li Guoqing told us to go straight east for 1.5 kilometers, and there would be someone there to pick us up. After that, they said goodbye to us in the corridor and began to use the walkie-talkie to inform the units of our message to avoid conflicts.
Downstairs, Lin Yang asked, "Although this soldier didn't mention it, but when he got to the place he said, he wouldn't let us go in with weapons, right?" ”
I was silent for a while, and then said, "We won't be able to get to the safety station today, so we have to find a place to spend the night." ”
Gao Xiaohan was a little unhappy and said, "Brother Shi Lei! If we really get there, we'll have to be controlled by others! ”
Without waiting for me to speak, Mu Linfeng stood up first and said, "What words!" It must be much safer where there are troops than running around like this! Saying that, he gave me a white look angrily, it seems that he has a lot of opinions about me about the previous mess in the city, after all, he is most worried about his daughter.
Gao Xiaohan was about to speak, but was interrupted by me waving his hand and said, "I finally came across a place with troops, so I always have to go and see it." Safety first. ”
In fact, I am not optimistic about what Li Guoqing said, there are only more than 100 people in an ordinary company, and how many are left after such a toss of zombies. However, the specific situation will have to wait for later.
The corpses were no longer as densely distributed on the road as before, and the severed limbs and arms were scattered on the street corners, and all kinds of charred black marks seemed to show how fierce the battle had taken place in this place. I deliberately lowered the speed of the car to see if there was any equipment left behind by the soldiers, but I found nothing, but I saw a figure shaking on the roof of the middle floor on the side of the street several times, which should also be from the army. In this way, it is estimated that those weapons and everything have been taken away by them.
After several artificial fortifications, there were no soulless corpses on the road, but the two piles of charred corpses on the side of the street made He Shiqian, who was in the back seat, afraid to open her eyes.
Sometimes I wonder why so many people are always with me, and why they are walking with me in this crumbling world. At the beginning of the outbreak of the virus, I resolutely left home to find my parents, but until now I have not even a clue about them, I just took it for granted and decided to go to the Yutian Safety Center to have a look, with the only glimmer of hope, I slowly came to this day. But what about the people around me, the villa in the northern suburbs of the city, and the gymnasium where Guo Jiangwei is located, can be said to be a safe place, but they didn't stay, but followed me to continue to look for the safe place that only knew its name, and the danger during this period was not unimaginable to them.
If we are lucky enough to get to the Yutian Safety Station and still don't find our parents, what should I do and where will they go? Or they use it as a safe and secure 'fortress' for their lost loved ones. But in today's world, where else can it be called truly safe. Can we go back to our old lives......
The dripping raindrops fell from the sky, I turned on the wipers to sweep away the falling water on the windshield, opened a little window, the dull rotten smell gradually faded, and a unique freshness of rain filled the whole car, making people feel restless and relaxed.
A double-open iron door gradually became clear in the rain, and two soldiers stood under the large umbrella at the door, one picked up the walkie-talkie to report, and the other stretched out his hand to signal us to stop.
The soldier with a crutch on his shoulder came running with a gun, and I opened the window to look at him. There was no raincoat, no umbrella, let the rain hit his body, and his solemn expression did not waver in the slightest.
"Comrade, I want to check the people in the car, please cooperate." He saluted me and said aloud.
I asked Xia Mi to roll down the window, and then reached out and gave Lin Yang a thumbs up in the car behind. The soldier nodded, looked through the window, then ran to the back car, pushed the door open and probed for a while. Then he turned and ran back, said a few words to another soldier, and then the two of them opened the gate together and beckoned us to enter.
Inside the iron gate is a large courtyard, about the size of half a football field. To the northeast, there are cars with a capacity of more than nine people, the largest of which are two buses and a military truck. To the south sits a two-story white building with six or seven large windows on each floor. Seven or eight heavily armed soldiers stood in front of the closed door, and the shelter above the gate kept them out of the rain.
I pulled over to the door and pressed the button on the window on the other side of the drizzle. A man with the rank of second lieutenant took a step forward and said aloud to us: "Except for the driver, everyone is carrying your things into the house, and the golden cup stops over there, and the car is extinguished and the key is left on it." You'll be waiting for this car! ”
"Brother Shi......" Xiaoyu didn't move, and turned her head to look at me.
"It's okay, you guys go in first, don't move the food in the trunk of this car, take away all the gold cups."
"Oh... Good. Xiaoyu answered, and then turned around and got out of the car.
Then Xia Mi, He Shiqian, and Sister Peng on the golden cup also got out of the car and walked into the building with their bags. Lin Yang drove the car to the bus that the second lieutenant was referring to.
Another soldier got into my co-pilot and said, "Comrade, please drive the car outside the hospital." ”
"Why?"
"Only large vehicles are left in the courtyard, and cars must be placed outside."
I didn't say anything more, turned around in gear, and drove the car out. Under the guidance of the soldiers, I drove the car outside the fence on the south side of the yard, only to find that there were more than a dozen cars parked here, all kinds of brands parked neatly together, these would have to be crowded to death if they were all parked in the yard, and it seemed that there were not a few survivors inside.
Pulling over next to a Passat, I put on my leather jacket and ran back to the compound in the rain with the soldiers.
As soon as I ran into the building, the rain outside intensified, and maybe my luck was reflected in this place. I dusted off the drops of water from my jacket and stepped through the door.
As soon as I came in, I saw the hall, which was only a dozen square meters, and although the walls were old, there was not even a little blood, which made me feel a little surprised when I was used to seeing blood. There is a row of doors in the corridor to the east, I don't know what they do. Xiaoyu and they were all in the hall, and when the second lieutenant saw me in place, he saluted us first, and then said: "Hello, my name is Shi Yao, don't talk nonsense, just ask you to remember three points." First, all actions here must be under command, and our people are guarding every direction in the courtyard, and they are not allowed to come and go at will! Second, the compound was originally a food processing factory, and now it is used as a temporary gathering point for survivors, and is garrisoned by our company. But that doesn't mean absolute security, our enemies are strong! The words ......" almost popped out from between his teeth, Shi Yao took a heavy breath, and continued: "So when necessary, we need to use your strength to fight against a strong enemy with us, so we will not confiscate your weapons and supplies. However, you must not clash with the other survivors, or you will do so at your own risk! ”
"Third, the Yutian City Security Center will send helicopters here three times a day to transfer survivors and supplies, and the boarding order will be arranged in the order in which they arrived here, and they must not be forcibly cut into the queue, and if they violate it, they will also bear the consequences! Do you understand! ”
I was shocked when I listened to his words. Is this the food processing factory mentioned by the old man of the villa, I originally thought that this place should be surrounded by zombies, but I didn't expect it to become a temporary gathering place. And what I didn't expect was that the Yutian Security Center mentioned by Shi Yao should be a security station, and there would even send planes there, so the helicopter I saw before must have come to save people, which is the best news for us. But I also thought that Liu Xiaotian, who Li Xiaoyu followed, had mentioned that they were coming to the processing factory, and I don't know if they would meet, or they had been transferred.
After hearing this, a happy expression appeared on everyone's faces, but Second Lieutenant Shi Yao's face turned purple. He asked again: "I'm asking if I understand, please give me an answer!" ”
"Understood!" I don't know how many people's voices came out behind him, and it was definitely not all.
"That's it!" Shi Yao looked at a soldier and said, "You take them up to see the company commander." ”
"Yes! Follow me. The soldier answered and beckoned us to the stairs.
I followed him upstairs, and there was only one door on the left and right of the second floor. On the floor in the middle, four soldiers sat in a circle, each holding a playing card. There were also two chattering men sitting by the wall, guarding five or six bulging military backpacks. When I look at it, I feel that the upstairs and downstairs are not a troop at all.
"Report!" The private shouted.
The four of them looked at each other. "Huh?"
"Report to the company commander! New to eleven people. ”
One of the men, who had his back to us, glanced back, and he still had a half-burning cigarette in his mouth, and said, "Ah, it's hard work, you go down first!" ”
"Yes!" The private turned and went downstairs.
The company commander twisted his body and said to us: "Precautions, Shi Yao has told you, let's pick one of these two rooms to sleep!" Don't run around if it's okay! Otherwise, your life will not be safe! With that, he went back to playing.
"I'm rubbing! I said, brother, you can really see it! Gao Xiaohan raised his eyebrows and said, "When are you still playing cards here?!" ”
The company commander ignored him and shouted, "Hurry up, who hasn't paid tribute yet!" Don't take the opportunity to hide! ”
"Cut! I thought everyone was as unmusical as you......" a squad leader whispered.
The company commander threw the card on the ground and shouted, "Grass! What do you say! ”
