Chapter 31: The Tide of Corpses
The sound of the boat motor was very harsh, causing a wave of restlessness from the zombies on both sides of the strait. When passing by a place with a bridge, everyone mentions the spirit of twelve. When I first crossed a bridge, because there were a few zombies watching on the bridge, everyone didn't pay much attention, and it almost made a big mistake.
A zombie with a broken right arm was originally roaring at the boat by the guardrail on the bridge, but he didn't expect it to fall down and happen to hit the center of the boat. This is amazing, everyone didn't react at that time, and this zombie took advantage of the situation and pounced on Lu Yang. This unlucky ghost, everything bad happens to him.
The zombie had a foul and smelly mouth, and it almost rubbed against Lu Yang's face, and the mouth was full of rusty teeth, dripping liquid. This frightened Lu Yang, he didn't dare to open his mouth to scream, he could only struggle with a whining. It can be regarded as Wang Wu's quick reaction, and he poked the zombie into the river with a horizontal knife.
The frightened Lu Yang, after experiencing this terrifying intimate contact, has been buried in his clothes and does not dare to show it. When crossing the next few bridges, as long as there are scattered zombies, Donna will use the assault gun in her hand to clean them up in advance. Last night she fought a fierce battle by herself, and she ran out of magazines. Fortunately, it is a high-tech firearm, and the ammunition is very sufficient, as long as she is not ready to kill, the ammunition on her body can fully last to the camp of the East China Sea Islands.
"You see, zombies seem to be really afraid of water." Guo Rong pointed to the riverside. There, a few zombies were wandering, and when they saw a living person on the boat, they instantly became manic. But instead of jumping into the river, they kept going around in circles. It has been observed that although zombies are afraid of water, they are unable to inflict fatal damage. These things that have no wisdom are doing things completely according to instinct. So, what is the reason why zombies are afraid of water? The exact reason for this is unknown.
Temporarily safe, Zhang Zhao and Guo Rongyou returned to the state of living treasures, and when they saw the zombies, they didn't dare to wade into the water, so the two simply picked up the dirt on the boat and threw it at the zombies, and they still had swear words in their mouths from time to time.
Donna also frowned when she saw the two of them like this, expressing her disgust for such a childish act. Wang's father and son have rarely spoken, looking preoccupied, and they seem to be still thinking about the regret of not being able to understand the rotten orange with their own hands.
The boat is driving on the river, and there will be zombies chasing them on the shore from time to time, and the number is sometimes more and sometimes less. Guo Rong also stopped his boring provocation, because there were already zombies desperately jumping into the river, causing a splash. As the saying goes, rabbits bite when they're in a hurry, let alone bloodthirsty zombies?
After driving for about three hours, suddenly the boat shook and the motor suddenly made a few noises, but it didn't move. Wu Qiang tried to launch it several times, but it didn't work, he slapped his head, and said in annoyance: "It's over, the motor is broken, it is estimated that it is entangled in the dirt in the water." β
The boat lost power and was trapped in the middle of the river, and there were obviously more zombies on the bank of this place, and it was impossible to choose to walk if you wanted to go ashore. Zhang Zhao spread out the map and asked Lu Yang, "How much distance is there?" β
"It's not far, go a little further ahead, turn a corner and you can go ashore."
"Alright, let's paddle ahead."
"Paddle along?" Guo Rong touched his head, the boat was very small, as small as six people sitting, there was not much room for it, and there was no oars or anything like that. He paddled his hand in the water a few times, and the boat only moved slightly, "It's too difficult, I can't row at all." β
In fact, it is much more difficult than imagining Chinese medicine, and it took a lot of effort to gather everyone's strength, use both hands and feet, and the boat only moved forward a little. You can't go this far without the right tools at hand. If you can't row a boat, you can't walk the waterway, so you have to find another way.
Now as far as the eye can see, there are no less than thirty zombies, if you want to abandon the ship and go ashore, in addition to having a suitable place, the most important thing is how to support these zombies?
Zombies are very sensitive to sound, as long as they can lead them to a place and give their group of people a chance to land. Zhang Zhao looked at the shore on both sides, and his eyes lit up. If you have a way, you have to try it, and if you don't try, you don't know if it will work.
"Team Tang, I have come up with a way that we can try." He explained the method to everyone briefly, there is a shop on the left bank, the faΓ§ade is very wide, the most important thing is that there are many windows in this store, as long as the glass window is broken with a gun, the sound can be heard by zombies within a certain range.
Lu Yang was scared enough by the zombies, and he just wanted to leave the river quickly, after all, he could still run on his own feet on the shore, and if he was attacked by zombies on the boat, he couldn't run. He listened to Zhang Zhao's plan and was a little moved: "Then let's hurry up, these zombies are panicking when they see me." β
Donna nodded, there was no other way but to give it a try. Everyone moved their hands and feet, first slipped the boat to the place where it could land, and then Donna raised the gun in her hand, took aim, and said: "Now the attention of the zombies is not completely ours, as long as we go ashore, let Lu Yang take the lead, he knows the way, follow him, and don't stop for a moment." β
Before preparing to shoot, Donna reminded, "Ready?" β
"Ready, let's do it."
With a soft pop, a window outside the store exploded, and the sound of glass falling to the ground was suddenly heard. The zombies on the shore were stunned for a moment, and then ran towards the store in a frenzy. But there are still some zombies who are unresponsive and are still spinning in place. Donna was fortunate to fire five shots in one go, breaking a row of shop windows. This time there was a lot of movement, and the zombies ran there with a roar.
"Hurry ashore." The people on board eagerly jumped to the shore and ran up the steps. And those zombies hidden in the shadows, seeing living creatures moving, as if they had discovered a new world, chased after them. Lu Yang took the lead in running at the front, and the rest of the people followed closely behind, but Wang Qiang was much slower due to his age, and he felt very difficult after running a few steps.
"Dad, come up, I'll carry you." Seeing that he was at a distance from the team, Wang Wu squatted down, picked up his father, gritted his teeth and continued to run. After Guo Rong broke off, a few zombies that came out from the side almost rushed to him, he brandished his war knife, and the corpses were separated.
After running for about ten minutes, the zombie trail behind him gradually disappeared, and everyone slowed down temporarily. Wang Qiang bumped all the way, and the cowboy hat on his head didn't know where to go, "Put me down, put me down." He shouted a few times, and Wang Wu put him down.
Wang Qiang took out a sweat towel to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and muttered: "It seems that people can't get old, someone runs on my back, and I am more tired than the person who runs." β
Temporarily escaping from the tiger's mouth, everyone's mood was also much more relaxed, Guo Rong took out a bottle of new water from his bag, drank a few sips, handed it to Wang Qiang, and said with a smile: "Old Wang is a cow." "Except for the difference in physical strength, Wang Qiang is not lost to a young man at all in the rest of the part, which is beyond doubt.
At present, there is a shortage of drinking water, Wang Qiang does not dislike it, he pours a few sips, and then hands the bottle to Wang Wu, with a sense of satisfaction, and then said: "It's a pity that Lao Wang's hat, that is my favorite hat." β
Everyone rested for a few minutes, and saw the sight of zombies on the side of the road, so they decided to continue walking, now the city is full of zombies, and they must meet the team as soon as possible, and then escape from the city.
According to the route Lu Yang said, it is about fifteen miles to reach the mall, with seven bends and eight turns, and it is necessary to avoid zombies, and it is planned to take three hours. It's past noon, the sun is fierce, and the whole body is hot and dry all the way to walking. The number of zombies encountered has also increased compared to before, some sporadic and some in groups. If you are alone, you will be killed, and if you encounter more than ten, you will hide.
Lao Wang also joined the hand-to-hand combat, don't look at his age, he starts quickly and ruthlessly, this father and son do things neatly. Lao Wang didn't have a knife, so he took out a one-foot-long steel bar from behind his waist, with a very sharp steel bar at one end, and when he encountered a zombie, he directly stabbed the steel bar into the zombie's head, and when he pulled it out, he also carried a trace of minced meat. The steel bar is hard and not easy to bend, and in Lao Wang's hands, it has become a killing weapon.
Under Zhang Zhao's encouragement and teaching, Lu Yang's courage has become much greater than when he met him in the Eighteenth Middle School before, and in addition to the zombies that he pounced on, he would also take the initiative to clean up the zombies. Nepalese sabers can be chopped or chopped, and it only takes one moment to aim at the zombie's head, and you can understand him.
After walking for more than an hour, I also cleaned up a lot of zombies, but because the weather was too hot, everyone kept losing water in their bodies. After a short break of a few minutes, the drinking water that I had brought with me was also drunk. In the following journey, everyone began to collect some supplies one after another.
Walking on the main road, there were more abandoned cars parked on the road, and I tried to drive a few cars, but they couldn't start. Except for Donna and Wang Wu, who are in charge of guarding, the others are more like scavengers, and will not let go of any cars that may be useful whenever they have the opportunity.
"Come on, come on." Lu Yang, who was eight or nine meters away from Zhang Zhao, suddenly shouted and waved at everyone. Zhang Zhao made a silent movement with his hand, this kid is always making a fuss, this is the rhythm of killing people. But Lu Yang's expression and movements were extremely excited, as if he found that the female neighbor of the building was taking a bath, and kept waving.
After Zhang Zhao walked in, he understood why Lu Yang was so excited, because he was standing next to a riot car. Riot car! This is undoubtedly the most powerful vehicle found at present, and Zhang Zhao also walked over in three steps and two steps. Generally speaking, there will be better things in riot cars.
This riot car was pressed against the back of a bus, and the butt of the bus was forced to break a groove, so you can imagine how hard it was hit at that time. The door on one side of the riot control vehicle was open, indicating that there were still people alive at that time, and they got out of the car in time to resist.
Lu Yang pointed to the inside of the car, indicating that there was a zombie inside that was not dead. Zhang Zhao didn't dare to open the car door rashly, so he went around to the side and saw that there was a zombie in a special police suit in the back seat who was struggling to pounce. The zombie didn't know how long it had been transformed, the skin on its face was about to fall off, and there was an eyeball on its red and black cheek.
Zhang Zhao pulled out the Tang knife and stabbed him in the head hard, ending his life. Over there, Lu Yang couldn't wait to open the car door and search. This is supposed to be a combat squad, and after a car accident, get out of the car and fight. Then the unlucky ghost in the car turned into a zombie for some reason.
Lu Yang exclaimed again, took out a spear in his hand, and couldn't put it down as if he was showing off. It turned out to be a gun, Zhang Zhao also quickly groped, almost stripped off the body of this zombie special policeman, and touched almost every corner in the car.
This time the harvest was not small, a pistol and a long gun were found, as well as tactical backpacks, etc., except for combat uniforms, everything else was clean. "Hey, do you kid know how to use it? Take it. Seeing that Lu Yang had been holding the spear, he was afraid that he would accidentally go off.
"M110 sniper rifle, USP9 pistol, it seems to be lucky." At this time, Donna also came over, looked at the things that the two of them picked up, and recognized them at a glance. Zhang Zhao's cognition of firearms is only in shooting games, and the real guy has never touched the opportunity except for a few bullets during military training when he was in school. USP he knows, whether it is in an American drama or a game, this is a relatively popular pistol, with high accuracy and a large ammunition capacity. This zombie SWAT officer turned into a zombie before he could shoot, so the equipment was not used, and the magazine in the pistol was still full.
Zhang Zhaoshun hung the fast gun holster on himself, and urged Lu Yang to bring the sniper rifle over, this gun will not be used by himself, he has to keep it for Li Zijing, although his air gun is highly accurate, but the range is not far, and the lethality is not enough. Lu Yang reluctantly handed the sniper rifle to Zhang Zhao, which he found out first, and thought he could use it himself, but he didn't expect it to be confiscated.
"That's what I found." Although the gun was confiscated, he was still muttering.
Zhang Zhaoyi frowned and said, "You won't use what you find, the best weapon is for the most suitable person." "I said this, but I was secretly happy in my heart, starting with a pistol will be more or less secure in the future.
Lu Yang didn't say anything, it seemed that this gun couldn't be touched by himself, so he went around to look for other things. Lao Wang stared at the M110 in Zhang Zhao's hand, his eyes lit up: "This is a good thing." β
Well, it seems that more than one person is worried. Zhang Zhao waved his hand and said: "Forget it, Lao Wang, the M4A1 in your hand is the trump card, you are content." β
In the last days, even if you have a gun, you have to save every bullet, and maybe a bullet is the key to saving your life. Don't shoot unless you have to.
Lao Wang smiled awkwardly: "I'm just talking, although the gun is good, but I don't like it." β
After scavenging a lot of things, Zhang Zhao's weight increased a lot, and he adjusted it a little before he completely packed up his things.
"Bang, bang." Suddenly, two gunshots rang out, startling everyone present.
"Who's shooting?" Zhang Zhao exclaimed, could it be that there are still living people?
The next scene was something he didn't expect, only to see Guo Rong and Lu Yang appear at the same time and run towards them, carrying a lot of things on their bodies, shouting as they ran: "Run, corpses." β
Zhang Zhao climbed on the top of a car next to him, and when he looked around, he saw that about 500 meters behind the two of them, there were zombies densely.
"Corpses!"
Zombies are interspersed in the traffic, and they can't see the end at a glance, like an army of ants in a pile of rubble.
The corpses came in advance.
No, this is a corpse tide, a million-level corpse tide.
