Chapter 4, First Encounter with a Zombie
Wen Ningyue sat cross-legged and tried to cultivate those dream exercises and secret techniques that she had been unable to cultivate.
Soon a quarter of an hour passed.
She shook her head and sighed softly: "I still can't cultivate, it seems that the exercises in the dream world are not suitable for the world I am in!"
In vain, Wen Ningyue no longer tried.
She took out a map of Beimeng City from the desk cabinet in her bedroom, then picked up a pen and began to draw the route from her home to Wenhua School Beimeng Normal University.
Soon, the map marked the best route with a red line.
"It's more than 30 kilometers away, and zombies are rampant, and I don't know what dangers I will encounter on the way, so I must be fully prepared. Although I don't know how much strength I have now, I still try to avoid it as a last resort. ”
Wen Ningyue didn't worry about Wen Hua, and insisted on going out.
Although she knew that this journey of just over thirty kilometers was not too far, but now that it was the end of the collapse of civilization, no one knew what kind of danger she would encounter, but none of this could stop her determination to go out.
"Take care of my brother!"
This is the advice of her parents before they die, and she remembers it vividly and has always acted on it.
"More than 30 kilometers, most of the time should be able to arrive. No matter how bad it is, you should be able to arrive before dark. Hua Wazi, you must hold on to your sister's arrival during this time! ”
Her heart was anxious, and her mind was filled with the light of hope.
Wen Ningyue changed into a brown tight-fitting suit, took out a black backpack, and then took out two kitchen knives from the kitchen, put one in the backpack and one on the table.
Then, she put the easy-to-store food in the refrigerator into her backpack, looked down at the road map on the table again, and then put the map of Beimeng City in her backpack, and pulled the zipper on her back.
She removed the cabinet that blocked the door, then turned back to the table, picked up the kitchen knife on the table and walked to the door again.
Taking a deep breath, Wen Ningyue carefully opened the security door.
After a creak, Wen Ningyue carefully poked her head out, glanced left and right, and the floor was safe.
Heavily armed, she gently walked out of the room, then closed the door with minimal movement.
Creep to the elevator entrance and press the elevator switch button.
It's just that the elevator seems to be out of order, and after waiting for nearly a minute, there is no sign of opening the door and the floor number jumping.
Wen Ningyue had no choice but to take the stairs.
Although she knew that the stairs were much more dangerous.
She moved to the staircase of the safe passage, took a deep breath again, and silently looked down at the kitchen knife in her hand, which was also her only place of reliance and peace of mind.
"Come on, Wen Ningyue! This is your first step toward facing the end times. ”
She pumped herself up, then pushed open the door to the staircase.
A glimmer of light reflected on Wen Ningyue's face as the door was pushed open, and then the crack in the door grew wider and wider, until it covered her whole body.
The corridor is empty, and outside a large transparent glass at the corner of the staircase, a huge autumn sun crosses the sky. The sun shines on the stairwell, dispelling the gloom of the gloomy heart.
Some of the reddish and blackened blood stains were covered on the guardrails of the staircase, bloody, apparently not long left behind, and had not yet dried up.
Wen Ningyue frowned, she wanted to retreat. It's just that as soon as she thought of her younger brother Wen Hua's face and current situation, she cheered herself up and said that she could do it.
She cautiously descended the stairs.
Luckily, she was lucky, and she didn't encounter anything unsafe when she went downstairs.
As soon as she got out of the building and came to the open community, Wen Ningyue heard the roars of unknown beasts, one after another, endlessly, and the desperate and crazy screams of people of different ages.
She was full of excitement, then tightened the backpack behind her back and began to head towards Beimeng Normal University, where Wen Hua was.
Her steps are not fast, step by step is very steady, try to lower her center of gravity as much as possible, and not let herself make a loud noise.
Suddenly, she stopped, shivering all over, and a chill quickly rose from her tail vertebrae to the top of her head, causing her scalp to tingle, goosebumps all over her body exploded, and her eyes looked ahead in horror and fear.
In front of him, an old man dressed in tattered clothes stood in an extremely strange posture, his eyes rolled white, like dead fish eyes, black green tendons bulging out of his face, and his face was covered with black and red blood stains. There were marks of gnawing on the shoulder of his left arm, and black blood was dripping from his bloody shoulder.
"Mourning...... Zombie! ”
Wen Ningyue squeezed out these two words from between her teeth, tears flooded her eyes, she was so frightened that her legs seemed to be weak and she couldn't take a step.
This zombie also seemed to have spotted Wen Ningyue, it suddenly raised its head, opened its hideous mouth, revealing a mouthful of bloodshot teeth, roared wildly, and rushed towards Wen Ningyue.
Wen Ningyue came back to her senses, turned around and ran.
At this moment, she finally realized the cruelty of the end times.
Death is death at every turn, and life is gone forever.
Although she has great strength and carries a kitchen knife, she really can't dare to fight.
At this moment, she ran towards the unit building where she was located as fast as she could.
However, the next moment she was desperate.
She saw a pair of hands at the door of her apartment building pulling the door shut at great speed.
In the midst of lightning, she thought of a common saying that "dead friends don't die poor".
What to do? I can't go back home, and I am being chased by zombies behind me.
Wen Ningyue could only change her route and run without a purpose, with only one thought in her heart, that is, to get rid of the zombies behind her.
While running, she would occasionally look back to see how far the zombies were from her. She found that the zombies were slowly getting away from her.
Timing it, she hid in a corner.
Then, she came to a bold conclusion.
I don't just become stronger, but I have an all-round improvement in my body.
Her speed, stamina, etc., have all increased a lot.
After running so far in one go, she didn't feel the slightest tiredness. This would have been before, and she would have been gasping for breath a long time ago.
"Although my physical fitness has become stronger in all aspects, I should try to hide if I can!"
She knows that the most powerful thing about zombies is not the lethal power, but the viral infectivity after scratching and biting.
If you accidentally get scratched and bitten by a zombie, it's all over, and you'll become a zombie.
After putting her head out of the corner to confirm that the zombies were really getting rid of her, Wen Ningyue set off more carefully this time.
She went out of the community and experienced this cruel end of the world firsthand.
Scrapped cars on the streets cloak traffic.
On the highway, black and red blood was splattered everywhere.
The body of a man lay in the driver's seat of the vehicle, and blood dripped from the bottom of the car onto the road, forming a pool of blood; Someone's severed limbs and stumps were strewn with blood scattered in the streets; There are blood in the intestines and hearts in the abdomen, and there is blood scattered all over the street.
Zombies roamed the streets aimlessly, or swarmed over when they heard a noise, or leaned on the ground and munched on the entrails, heads, and limbs of dead corpses.
Wen Ningyue swallowed a mouthful of saliva, endured the uncomfortable feeling in her stomach, and continued to set off along an alley road that she usually walked to work towards Beimeng Normal University.
In the last days filled with gunpowder, who can save people from the dire situation? Desperate and numb people, struggling in the human world of hell.
Hell is empty, and demons are on earth?
Wen Ningyue shook her head, thinking of her life before today.
Suddenly, she felt how beautiful peace was!
It's just that everything that used to be out of reach, and now what we have to do is how to survive in this cruel apocalypse, struggling to survive in a world infested with zombies and all kinds of monsters.
"Mom! Mom! Where are you? Mom! Mom! Where are you? ”
Suddenly, Wen Ningyue heard someone shouting loudly.
"Not good!"
She frowned, knowing that such a sound might attract zombies.
She immediately turned around, ready to take another route.
It's just that, listening to this voice, it should be a little girl, and she is not very old, obviously her parents are not around, do you want to go over and take a look?
Wen Ningyue was caught in the battle between heaven and man.
"No, it's hard to protect yourself, how can you control others?"
"However, if you don't go, the little girl will attract zombies and will die."
"In the last days, will there be fewer deaths?"
Wen Ningyue seemed to have persuaded herself not to worry about this matter. She hesitated for a moment, then continued silently on her way.
It's just that her steps are getting slower and slower.
In the end, she stopped again, and after being stunned, she resolutely turned around.
"Hmmm! Before the zombies are not attracted, it is good to take the little girl to a safe place. ”
Soon, she searched for the direction from which the voice came and rushed into an alley.
In front of a running grocery store, a little girl about four years old, dressed in a pink suspender suit, with tears on her fat baby face, was opening her mouth to call out for her mother.
