Chapter 20: Departure (Finale)
My eyes are hot, for a long time, I have suffered from gains and losses in my heart, the fear of facing disasters, the surprise after meeting Gu Zhebei, and the fear of losing his protection at all times, I am not a cold little public act, I am just a woman who longs for a home, although this relationship comes at an unusual time and place, but the relationship is coming, without reason or omen.
Saying these words from Gu Zhebei's mouth today, I know that I can let go of all my worries and fears.
He didn't have any need to fool me, he said so, he thought so.
And I completely trust his every word.
"Gu Zhebei!" I whispered excitedly, and he replied softly, "Huh? β
"I'm going to give you a baby!"
Gu Zhebei burst out laughing, he rubbed my hair, pinched my face and looked at me, he finally smiled, and the dark clouds that had been hanging on his face all day disappeared in an instant.
"Of course! You can't just give birth to one, you have to give birth to a lot, and now no one can control it! Gu Zhebei said happily, "When we find a really safe place and don't have to flee everywhere, we will start to give birth, one a year, and one stronger company!" It's best to have more children, and when you grow up, you can protect your mother, and you won't be afraid of how many zombies come. β
I also laughed, not shy at all, as if I was an old husband and wife with him for many years, and this picture, even after many years, I have not forgotten half of it.
That night, we were finally alone together and completed the final step of a successful relationship.
Of course, now is not the best time to have children, so we are very careful, Gu Zhebei has always hidden a box of small condoms on his body, I laughed and scolded him for getting up early, but he brazenly replied that the opportunity is only for those who are prepared.
When he announced to everyone that he was leaving Maple Leaf Town, most people couldn't understand it.
The two of them recognized each other that day, everyone watched, for everyone, no matter how arrogant and ruthless Gu Zhebei's mother was, she was also Gu Zhebei's mother, having such a strong team settled in, it must be a good thing for us, neither worry about coming to the corpse group again, nor worrying about the wicked again, who would have thought that after just two days of happiness, Gu Zhebei would take everyone to open the dial, which was greatly unexpected by everyone.
Peng Shao was not the only one who opened his mouth to ask questions, even our close partners also expressed their doubts.
Gu Zhebei only said that this place is no longer suitable for everyone to stay, take them away, it is for their good, if they still believe him, just go, if you don't believe it, you can stay.
This time, half of the people chose to stay, this town is surrounded by walls, not far from the city, supplies are convenient, and there is a strong team to provide protection, people with normal thoughts will choose to stay.
Those who are willing to leave with Gu Zhebei are not only me and Xiao Nian, Han Han, but also Tang Xiaozheng, Wen Yan, Pan Feng, Xu Jin, Da Yong, Jin Mo, Xing Xing and Fu Ran.
The number of people can be said to be pitiful.
But I can understand the people who choose to stay, compared to the unknown journey outside, this place is obviously more suitable for survival, Gu Zhebei is powerful, but the person he really cares about is me, everyone knows.
At the critical moment, he will first protect the lives of me and Hanhan, and others dare not expect to rely on him forever.
Sun Zhe didn't want us to leave, so he tried to persuade him a few words, but was interrupted by Gu Zhebei, seeing that Gu Zhebei was resolute, Sun Zhe stopped talking.
Jin Mo and Hu Luoluo whispered a few words, the latter looked at Peng Shao, shaking her head slightly, it was obvious that she couldn't let go of Peng Shao with us, even if she wasn't afraid to go out of town.
As for the family group of eight, they were never our buddies, they just came here together, and now there is a better team, and they have no pressure to choose to be separated from us.
Gu Zhebei nodded, and asked the partner who was about to leave to pack up his things simply, and he was going to ask for the minibus for the few cars that drove over before, so that the twelve of us could sit in one car.
When he stood up, Aunt Lu suddenly rushed over and asked sadly, "Little brother, why?" What contradictions do the two have that can't be resolved? In this kind of world, you still have to be angry? You're leaving, does your mom agree? β
This is everyone's question, everyone's eyes are focused on Gu Zhebei, but Gu Zhebei's face remains unchanged, he just smiles, and then looks at me, "Pack up your things." β
Gu's mother knew that we were going to leave because we were moving things to the bus at Gate 1, and the young man called Little Wolf did not stop us, but notified Gu's mother as soon as possible.
This powerful mother-in-law appeared in front of me for the second time, and I didn't dare to look at her eyes, for fear that she would think that I had provoked her son to lead the team out of town at this juncture, although she didn't know my relationship with Gu Zhebei at all.
"Xiaobei, did anyone disturb you?" Gu's mother was still smiling, surprisingly calm, you know, her son is leaving, and in this world, there is no mobile phone and no phone, this time goodbye, whether we can meet again is a matter of two words.
"Nope." Gu Zhebei patted off the snow flakes sticking to his sleeve, "It's enough to live here." β
"Are you still so willful, is it because I'm here?" Gu's mother gracefully held her chin with her hand, "You child, you have not been close to your mother since you were a child, and you blame your father for always saying bad things about me, but in fact, I really love you." β
"I know." Gu Zhebei was indifferent, "My dad didn't say anything, don't blame him." It doesn't matter to you if I leave, whether you come or not, I plan to leave. I have my plan. β
"Oh? Plan? Can you tell me? Maybe one day, I'll go to you? β
"Yes, I want to go into the mountains, the mountains are quieter, and there won't be so many nasty things."
"Which mountain to go to?"
"Arshan."
"You're going to take these people to Mongolia? Hehe, it's really a good place to escape from the world," Gu's mother covered her mouth and smiled, "Drive this broken car?" Is there enough gasoline? Gotta drive for a day. β
"I'd be very grateful for filling up my tank." Gu Zhebei made a rare request to his mother.
"No, we have a lot of cars, and we don't have enough gasoline. The place you go to is not the end of the earth, figure it out for yourself. What is even more unexpected is that Gu's mother actually refused.
I kind of understand why Gu Zhebei didn't kiss his mother at all!
"It's okay, I'll figure it out." Gu Zhebei obviously knew this answer for a long time and didn't care at all.
Gu's mother glanced at us, her gaze resting on me.
"What's this girl's name?"
I'm so scared that my heart doesn't beat, there are several girls here, how did she guess that it was me?
"Luo Liangchen." Gu Zhebei replied very happily, "It's nothing, right?" Here we go. β
Gu's mother nodded, and stared at me meaningfully for a while, I was at a loss, I didn't know what to say, Gu Zhebei stretched out his hand and pushed me onto the middle chin, which was considered to have saved me.
Gate 1 slowly opened, and Dayong drove us away from the town with the bus, in the direction of the suburbs, which was the direction in which the corpses were led away by Gu Ma and his party before.
"Brother Bei, your mother is really free and easy, and she respects her son's decision very much." Pan Feng saw that the atmosphere in the car was dull, and he couldn't help but want to make jokes.
Gu Zhebei snorted, "Free and easy? She is cold. β
"Also, her name is Gu Nanchun, you don't want to be called my mother and my mother." He added.
We were all surprised, no wonder the little wolf announced to Chen Pengyu that the town was surnamed Gu, which had nothing to do with Gu Zhebei, what he meant was that the town belonged to Gu Nanchun.
But under normal circumstances, shouldn't the child have his father's surname? Listening to the conversation between their mother and son, Gu Zhebei seems to have grown up with his father, why did he take his mother's surname?
There are too many questions, and we don't want to ask, these things are too private, if Gu Zhebei himself doesn't want to say, it would be rude for anyone to ask.
Seeing that he closed his mouth and stared out of the window, he had no interest in talking about it at all, and Pan Feng also swallowed his doubts sensibly.
"Brother, are we really going to Arshan? Take the national highway or take the highway, wow? The national highway is definitely not easy to walk, if you take the highway, we have to get on the ring highway first. Dayong asked innocently in front.
"Go." Gu Zhebei once again surprised us, I thought he was lying to his mother with nonsense, but who knew that he told the truth again, it was really incomprehensible.
"Then I'm looking for the highway entrance?" Dayong didn't have so many problems, but he had his own plan, "Brother, can you take a trip to Changchun?" I want to find my mother. β
"Okay." Gu Zhebei decided without thinking about it.
Who knows, not long after getting on the highway, I found that the road was controlled by the army.
We are afraid of zombies, we are afraid of bad guys, but we are not afraid of the People's Liberation Army, and when we see the friendly olive green, everyone thinks that the disaster has passed.
We were brought as refugees to the officer in charge of the blockade of the area, I don't know his rank, he looked to be in his fifties, and he looked very dignified.
"You are saved." The veteran officer said, "Bencheng has just been blocked, and the big army will arrive soon, and Bencheng will be completely cleared at that time." β
"Has Sanya fallen?" That's what I most desperately want to know.
"Hainan is safe, it's full of survivors. Security has been taken over by the military. The old officer's answer brought tears to my eyes and Xiao Nian's eyes.
"If you want to go to Hainan, I can apply for it for you, there is a special train to transport refugees from all over the world to safe areas." The old officer is such a good man!
Unexpectedly, before we were exiled to the prairie, we were rescued by the people's soldiers, we are really lucky!
"Do you know where else there are survivors in the city?" The old officer asked.
Gu Zhebei pursed his lips, "There are more than a hundred people in Maple Leaf Town. β
"Okay, we'll send someone to the rescue. You can rest now. β
After passing through countless military vehicles, we came to the rear of the blockade line, and on the snow on both sides were piles of burned zombie corpses, which had run around before, and none of them had been able to pass through this blockade line.
Zombies are no longer afraid of pain, they are also flesh, as long as they have weaknesses, they can't escape the merciless bullets and guns.
I thought that this catastrophe would only last for a short time before it was completely controlled by humans, but in fact, I was really naΓ―ve.
The ups and downs of human nature in the zombie outbreak are over.
