Chapter 222: In the Night Fire of Yushan
4:30 a.m., Yushan base, accommodation area.
The mottled iron bar guardrail, which had been removed some time ago, was used to reinforce the gate of the lodging area, and the dry vines that spread on it had not yet been removed.
The sky grew whiter and whiter, as white as snow, and brightened the darkest places. Outside the iron bar guardrail, the empty passage where Guo Rong originally observed time and space was completely revealed at this moment. More than a dozen strange pale bodies, like terracotta warriors that had stood for thousands of years, stood there motionless.
The terracotta warriors stood for an unknown amount of time, and a thin layer of fine frost had condensed on their pale skin. They were not afraid of the cold, and compared to the stone carvings behind them, they appeared more calm.
Suddenly, the terracotta warriors suddenly moved, taking a step back to each side, leaving a passageway. A brain-eating zombie with a body that was not the largest, but had a rich facial expression, walked slowly from between the two teams of terracotta warriors, and behind him, a faltering black shadow also followed slowly.
"Ho ho" The brain-eating zombie seemed to sneer, its prostrate limbs stood up, grabbed the black shadow's shoulders with both hands, and stretched out a snake-like tongue from its mouth, stabbing into the black shadow's celestial spirit cover with a thud. The brain-eating zombie was not sucking the brain, but as if he was transmitting something into it, and his big copper bell eyes seemed to exude a very satisfied brilliance. With the strange writhing of their bodies, those sculpture-like terracotta warriors kept making low cooing sounds in their throats.
If Zhang Zhao saw these with his own eyes, he would probably be directly scared to pee his pants, these things, where are there still zombies. This picture is completely an evil thing holding a ritual, those brain-eating zombies, can stand like normal people for a long time, and still don't move, how much ability does it take to control. Of course, this is not really a ritual, just a strange behavior and communication method of brain-eating zombies.
Guo Rong threw the cigarette butt into the toilet, lifted his pants, picked up the flashlight on the washstand, and hurried downstairs. There are Donna, Lao Wang, Wang Wu, Lang Chen and Han Yue in the living room, and the strongest combat power of the Yushan base is in his round villa, so in such a tense situation, he still has the heart to relieve himself.
The people here did not live with him for a long time, but came back with Li Zijing when he ordered him to retreat. When he returned to the villa, he looked at the familiar faces all over the room, and his heart was indescribably steady. It's Lu Yang, this kid, I don't know if he followed Fang Dong or who left in the chaos, if he was also there, he would really collect all the dragon balls and could summon the divine dragon.
Donna lifted the curtain and looked out, but it was still silent, and the entire accommodation area seemed to be frozen in the cold. Just when everyone was exhausted and wanted to find a place to rest for a while, there was a sound outside that made Guo Rong's scalp tingle.
"Pot Day...... Pot Day ...... Save me...... Save me on the pot day......"
Not only Guo Rong, but even Zhang Zhao of Villa No. 1 was almost scared to jump.
"Who, who's shouting for help!" Fang Dong and Xu Haihai were excited, and they opened the curtains and searched outward for a while, but there was nothing else but the dense mist. All who heard this sound immediately came to their senses and prepared for battle.
"Someone outside? Who's still out there! After Wang Wu finished speaking, he was about to open the door.
"My brother, don't, there's a ghost outside, such an eerie voice, it's the brain-eating zombie pretending." Guo Rong pounced to stop Wang Wu's actions, and said with trembling lips: "This brain-eating zombie loves to play tricks, I want to use such a trick again, don't be fooled." ”
A brain-eating zombie with intelligence, the trick repeated, is not smart. But then again, if this situation hadn't been encountered, someone would have opened the door like Wang Wu, even if it wasn't to save people, they wanted to find out. When Zhang Zhao and Guo Rong returned to the base, they mentioned this to everyone, but from their mouths, the atmosphere of terror had decayed a lot.
When everyone hears the brain-eating zombie imitating the human voice, they are still full of curiosity, and the only ones who really feel terrible may be Guo Rong and Zhang Zhao. That kind of fear from the heart, like digging out the nightmare buried deep in people's hearts at once, made the two of them tremble for a while. Everyone was vaccinated early, which is another factor that is not like the two of them being scared into shrimp balls.
This is even more terrifying than being chased by thousands of zombies, if it weren't for the fact that there were still so many people in the house, Guo Rong would be eager to find a hole to get into it, and then get some soil to wrap himself tightly in it.
"No, there really are." Wang Wu pointed to the figure swaying outside the walls of the circular villa.
Hidden by dry vines, it can still be seen that it is a human figure wearing clothes and the body shape has not changed. After Langchen leaned over to see the familiar figure, he muttered, "Qiao Bin? No way, I saw him die with my own eyes. ”
"What? Qiao Bin? How did he die? Guo Rong knew that it was him and Qiao Bin who were keeping vigil at the lookout tonight.
"Those who fall to death will have their organs torn apart." Langchen said coldly.
"The lookout is not too high, maybe...... Maybe it's just a fall? Is this possible? Guo Rong asked, although it is a very unwise decision to go out now, but if Qiao Bin is not dead, it is too immoral for everyone to see death and not save him. If this is the case, even if it is out of helplessness, everyone will have some opinions in the future.
Langchen can't be sure, according to reason, that height, not the head hit the ground first, there is indeed a possibility of survival.
"Shall we ...... Check it out? Guo Rong swallowed and foamed. was messed with like this, and he was confused for a while, and the brain-eating zombies imitated the human voice continuously before. Then, judging from the observation just now, the voice of the cry for help seems to be a little different. To say that Qiao Bin is really alive, Langchen said that he spits blood from his mouth, which is very likely to lead to slurred speech. And judging from the way he walks, it is also a little different from the zombie.
For the sake of safety, Guo Rong listened carefully for a few minutes, and at the same time observed Qiao Bin's actions. He walked slowly, next to the walls of the round villa.
"No matter, there are so many of us who are afraid of a bird!" Guo Rong couldn't stand it anymore and called out like a hellish demonic voice, so he opened the door and walked out with a gun on his back.
"Qiao Bin, Qiao Bin, is that you?" Langchen and Donna followed, and his courage grew again.
And Zhang Zhao on the other side also seemed to hear some conditions, but the voice was heading towards Villa No. 2, and he didn't see Qiao Bin with his own eyes. It wasn't until Guo Rong's loud voice sounded in the courtyard next door that he bounced off the ground like an electric shock, and instantly understood what was happening.
No matter what happened, it was a trick of the brain-eating zombies, they were releasing bait, and Guo Rong was indeed fooled. In his panic, he clearly saw a white shadow flashing outside the wall. As soon as his head was hot, he didn't think about it so much, and directly opened the door of the round villa.
Almost at the same time, Guo Rong, who was close to the wall of the circular villa, also raised a flashlight to shine at Qiao Bin outside.
"Pot, you run so fast, why did Qiao Bin call you for help!" Zhang Zhao tore away the zombie and shouted, then immediately closed the door and said to Li Zhizhi: "Quick, tell the two of them to come down, we have to transfer immediately." ”
The brain-eating zombies didn't hide in the accommodation area until everyone was hiding in the accommodation area, but there were ten round villas here, and they didn't know where they were hiding, so they would use Qiao Bin to lure out the exact location of the personnel. The number of this kind of mutant zombies can't be too much, and the ten round villas, whether they search one by one or attack at the same time, they can't divide that much strength. Only a heavy attack on one or two of them, whether or not they can be taken or not, will at least cause a serious blow.
Zhang Zhao can't wait to slap himself twice now, he still despises brain-eating zombies. Human beings will use various ways to alleviate the crisis, and the brain-eating zombies have never exhausted all means to achieve the best results. From the previous hidden traces, to the current stone-throwing asking for directions, this is simply something that only a professional strategist can do.
Sure enough, at the same time as Zhang Zhao reminded Guo Rong, the flashlight shone on Qiao Bin's face, and the gray and lifeless face was covered with black lines. Suddenly, Qiao Bin's white eyes moved, raised his eyes and grabbed the fence, and roared wildly.
When Guo Rong suddenly shouted loudly in Zhang Zhao, a thought flashed in his heart, yes, why did Qiao Bin ask me to save my life, if you want to find it, you have to find Langchen.
Zhang Zhao's shout, Guo Rong's inner reaction, and his sudden outburst when the flashlight hit Qiao Bin, almost at the same time.
"it!" Guo Rong was frightened and took a step back, but fortunately, he reacted faster than ordinary people, and immediately held a shotgun to blow Qiao Bin's head to pieces.
Just as he was about to turn around and run back, in the brighter and brighter environment, several white figures suddenly appeared, and they climbed the fence of the circular villa one after another. On the periphery of the fortified villa, the barbed wire fence stretched up, and several brain-eating zombies lay on their stomachs, like bird feces stuck to the bird cage.
Guo Rong, including Donna and Langchen, all raised their guns and kept shooting with their heads up. They didn't immediately retreat to the villa, but wanted to keep more brain-eating zombies out.
Brain-eating zombies don't have the same tenacious vitality as other mutant zombies, and they are also killed instantly when they hit their heads. Under the sweep, three or four brain-eating zombies were killed or injured and fell down. But there are more zombies, continuing to climb towards the barbed wire.
Zhang Zhao knew that his shouting had already attracted the attention of the brain-eating zombies, and when Li Zhizhi ran upstairs, there were already zombies climbing the wall of Villa No. 1. If you don't hurry up and wait until they come in and surround the villa, even if they can hold on, the end result will be very risky.
He didn't expect people from other villas to come out to support him and Guo Rong now, that would undoubtedly kill himself, so everything had to rely on himself.
He didn't dare to open the door and fight the zombies face to face, and when the first brain-eating zombie jumped into the yard, he stretched his rifle out of the reserved gap and fired a burst of fire. It doesn't matter if the brain-eating zombie gets a headshot or not, just finish a magazine. His marksmanship is terrible, and although he has improved a little, he can't guarantee that he will be able to get the gun in place. He regretted that he hadn't exchanged hands with Guo Rong before, at least his guy, as long as the target was close, the accuracy rate was 100%.
Li Zhizhi took Li Yan and Song Qing and hurriedly came down from the upper floor, and at this time they had been discovered by zombies, and they didn't care how much movement they made.
"Go to the kitchen, go as planned, and when there is a fire in the front yard, you go." Zhang Zhaodao.
"What about you? I'm not leaving, I'll help you! Li Yan had a big belly, and she still had the pistol that Zhang Zhao gave her at the beginning.
"Don't make a mess, I will have a way, you have to trust me! Song Qing, take her away! Zhang Zhao said with a cold face.
There were at least seven or eight brain-eating zombies attacking Villa No. 1, and three of them jumped in, and after one was killed, the other two didn't rush up immediately for a while. They seemed to be laughing at Zhang Zhao's bad marksmanship, jumping left and right very provocatively.
"Damn, tease Lao Tzu!" Zhang Zhao scolded, held his breath, and fired a few shots at a black ceramic jar in the front yard.
With a crisp sound, the ceramic jar burst open, and somehow a line of fire spread. Then this line of fire carried a fire dragon and burned a wall of fire in front of the round villa.
Zhang Zhao always found a way back for himself, and then those fortifications that he had worked so hard to renovate, in the end, only this well-designed wall of fire was left to play a role.
Of course, he didn't expect this wall of fire to burn the brain-eating zombies, and if it did, it would be an unexpected surprise. One thing that all zombies fear is fire. On this planet, almost all living things can't resist.
Sure enough, after the fire broke out in the front yard, the two shouting brain-eating zombies took a few steps back, not daring to move forward. It was at this time that Li Zhizhi and Song Qing took Li Yan to climb out of the big engineering office that Zhang Zhao had spent nearly a week building. A hole sixty or seventy centimeters wide was dug in the wall behind the kitchen cabinets, and it was enough to kick off the wooden planks that were hidden from the outside, leading to the gap adjacent to Villa 2.
Zhang Zhao snorted hard, and as soon as he turned around, he was almost startled by Park Anna behind him.
"Why are you still here?" Zhang Zhao gritted his teeth with hatred.
"Help you." Anna Park looked determined.
"Time is running out, let's retreat!" He pulled Anna Park and ran towards the kitchen as well.
