Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Shelter
The county seat, the eastern district.
It was originally a gymnasium, but not long after it was built, and some of the facilities were not yet perfected, disaster befell the land, and in one of the rooms of the gymnasium, there were faint whispers and gasps like beasts.
"Big brother...... Big Brother ......"
"Old Five, they're back!"
The low moaning continued, but the heavy wheezing slowly slowed down, and then a gloomy voice came: "Come back, come back, this kind of thing has to be reported, you have nothing to do, right?" ”
The cold sweat on the outside informant's brain came out directly, obviously he was extremely afraid of the man inside, and his tone trembled a little: "Big brother...... Only the fifth, Gangzi, and the third lame came back, and the rest were all eaten by zombies......"
The wheezing stopped completely.
The informant stood in the doorway, not daring to move, waiting for the final reply from the one inside.
There was a squeak, and a clear fishy smell came, mixed with some inexplicable fragrance.
The informer, apparently taken aback, raised his head, looked at the figure in front of him, let out a short breath in vain, and staggered back a few steps.
The door was opened by a man who looked like he was about forty, naked, with a tiger tattooed on his chest, the lines were delicate, evenly colored, and at first glance it was from the hands of a famous artist, and the man's face could see obvious aging, and there were many folds on the whole face, but the eyes were not as muddy as when they were old, and they were extremely cool.
"Old...... I'm getting old again......"
The informant leaned against the wall, looking at the leader who he hadn't seen for a day and had a few more wrinkles on his face, he only felt as if he had seen an evil ghost, his neck rolled, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
The other party was originally in his early thirties, but when he came to this gymnasium, he didn't know why, one day at a time, his hair was dry, his face was pale, and his skin was crawling with countless wrinkles, and the most terrible thing was that he himself didn't seem to know, some mouthy people asked, the first night was still alive and well, and the next morning, he was found lying in the bathroom, his cheeks were deeply sunken, his eyes were round, as if he was greatly frightened, and the body had already become stiff.
Several times in a row, people were panicked, and the rest of the people didn't dare to say a word, but every once in a while, they looked at each other and became old, and they still felt extremely terrifying, and they didn't know what happened to the other party.
In times of peace, how to convince the public? It's nothing more than three points, rich, powerful, and powerful!
With these three points, with a wave of his arms, his subordinates don't know how many people will work for it, and they will never get tired of it.
But now in the end of the world, power and power have long been a thing of the past, and if you want to gain the respect of others, there is only one thing, that is, whether you have the strength to protect your subordinates and let them live.
It's also strange to say, this gradually aging leader, as if there is some kind of magic, he has been living in the gymnasium, compared to the crowded zombies in other places, the zombies near the gymnasium are very small, it is precisely because of this ability, the survivors have fallen here, become the other party's subordinates, coupled with continuous exploration and collection, this man's power is getting bigger and bigger, and the number of people gathered is more than seventy people, and this gymnasium has also become a rare place of shelter.
Of course, the human heart is never satisfied.
The gymnasium is mixed, and as the number of people increases, some people also have objections, even if the boss really has the ability to expel monsters, as long as he stays in the stadium, there is no need to stand at the top and point fingers.
The three men challenged the leader, and several agreed to fight, and the winner was given the reins of the shelter, armed with a short blade, and the leader cut the necks of the three of them alive, becoming the final victor.
But the leader was also seriously injured, the abdomen, chest, and most terrible thing was that the waist was pierced by an iron cone, without medical treatment, this injury did not last long, just when everyone thought that the other party would also die, and the gymnasium was leaderless again, the man appeared in front of everyone again the next day after resting for the night.
At that time, except for his paleness, he couldn't see that he had been hit hard before, and it was precisely because of the other party's unusual performance that he finally established his prestige in the shelter.
But here's what's scary......
After that, the man's aging state became more and more serious, and every few days, some wrinkles appeared on his face, and his originally black hair gradually turned gray.
Not only that, but his temper has become more and more eccentric, crazy, violent, and even suddenly let out some roars at night, as if to vent some suppressed emotions.
Without the suppression of the law, coupled with the killing of three rebels with his own hands, it seems that some of the agitation in him has awakened some of the restless factors in him, and he has begun to disregard human life and wantonly abuse female survivors.
And, in the process of some humiliation, there were also death incidents, isolation of zombies, amazing resilience and moody emotions, all kinds of signs, making the other party the object of fear of everyone.
Even, more than one person has seen the other party smear blood on his body with his own hands, leaving a pair of round eyes, which is indescribably terrifying.
Cheng Hao.
He is the one who ascends to the top of this sanctuary.
Cheng Hao walked down, and some survivors could be seen along the way, when they saw the leader, they were all respectful, most of them were men, only a few women, I have to mention that most of these women were in rags, squatting on the ground with dull eyes, their eyes were hollow, and there were clearly visible bruises on their bodies, obviously suffering some damage.
Cheng Hao made a bad start, because of the connivance of the leader, some men also abandoned the brilliance of human nature and participated in some evil practices.
In times of disaster, women often have to endure more malice.
In the bathroom, three panicked men were showering, and there were people swinging each other's bodies to check whether there were any injuries on their bodies and whether they were infected by zombies.
Several people came to a room, and the man who was stripped naked by Fan Li before was one of the survivors, and he looked at Cheng Hao quite timidly, as if he didn't dare to face the other party.
Cheng Hao, who was sitting in the chair, raised his head, his face full of wrinkles, expressionless, a pair of unusual people, as if he hadn't had a good rest for a few days, causing countless bloodshot eyes to look ahead.
Suddenly, several people's hearts pounded and accelerated, and the intense fear that stemmed from instinct grabbed their throats.
At this moment, they felt that sitting in front of them was a hungry zombie, staring at the flesh and blood of several people with bloodthirsty eyes.
In an instant, several people lost their courage, trembled, and told each other all the ins and outs.
