Chapter 27: Staying in the Village

Brother Niu's tragic death calmed down some crazy people, whether it was joy or anger, it was over, and then we needed to think seriously about survival.

After counting, excluding the dead Niu Tiancong, there are a total of thirty-four survivors left, of which fourteen are women. plus Zhang Zifeng and others have a total of thirty-seven, and in this last days, it is already a huge group.

Everyone has already tacitly accepted that Zhang Zifeng is the leader, but he still shirked it on the grounds that he was inexperienced and too young. With Niu Tiancong's experience, he understands that the boss is not so easy to do.

What's more, Niu Tiancong's tragic death just now made him instinctively want to keep a distance from everyone.

As a result, everyone unanimously elected Chu Zhaonan as the leader. I don't know if it's because he is popular on weekdays, or because he seems to be close to Zhang Zifeng.

As for Niu Tiancong's four former followers, Zhang Zifeng had no intention of pursuing them, and the others also tacitly did not trouble them.

The first priority is to get food, change clothes, and of course, get out of the nightmare of the chicken farm, as far away as possible.

Everyone walked out of the chicken farm one after another, Zhang Zifeng checked the iron fence that locked the zombies, and closed the gate tightly to prevent the zombies from running out.

The battle with Jossen before consumed a bit, but there were hundreds of zombies wandering around the courtyard, and once they rushed out, it would pose a great threat to this team of survivors. It's just that there is no way to kill them all for a while, so I can only lock them up here first and then make plans.

Fortunately, without the control of the Chosen One, these unconscious zombies can't rush out under normal circumstances.

Along a dirt road, a team of more than 30 people was also considered to be mighty. After the regaining of freedom and the passion for denouncing Niu Ge subsided, the physical disparity of these survivors became apparent.

Long-term malnutrition and mental depression made it difficult for everyone to walk, and the speed of progress was very slow.

Even Ren Fei, a woman who often loses blood, is much healthier than them. Now she is lying leisurely on Zhang Zifeng's back. With this man, it's as if she has the whole world.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for a village to appear. The red sun is not far from the horizon, and we can only stay here tonight.

The village was empty, and the silence was eerily eeri. In fact, the whole world is much quieter now than it was when humans ruled before, but everyone is not used to it.

Walking around the village, there were no living people or zombies. Thanks to Qiao Sen, all the zombies in the vicinity were collected into the chicken farm, which directly created a safe environment.

The survivors couldn't hold it anymore and sneaked into the homes of the villagers, looking for food and clothing, and they all became unscrupulous. Fortunately, there are far more houses than there are alive, and there is no competition between them.

In a short time, smoke billows from many households, and the village seems to have regained the breath of life.

Zhang Zifeng and others also broke into a villager's home. Pushing open the hidden gate, a huge courtyard appeared in front of you.

In the courtyard is a narrow concrete road leading to several large tiled houses, and on both sides of the road are neat vegetable gardens. It's just that the vegetables planted in it have been covered with weeds, indicating that it has not been taken care of for a long time.

To the east is a small house with farm tools and a tricycle parked at the door. Directly opposite the tiled house is a traditional five-room house, with a cement drying platform in front of the house and tiled walls, which looks like this home is in good condition.

Surprisingly, there is actually a well in the yard! It is covered with a cement slab, and the water pipe sticks out from the gap in the cement slab, and the water pump is connected below.

Although there is no electricity now, it is still possible to lift water by hand when the cement slab is lifted. This is equivalent to having a self-sufficient source of water.

When I entered the house, I found that it was neatly organized, even the quilt was neatly folded, but everything was covered with a thin layer of ash.

Thinking of the owner here, who has now become a zombie wandering in the yard of the chicken farm, Zhang Zifeng's nose is inexplicably sour.

"Let's just live here," Ren Fei said, looking at her new home. She went straight to the wardrobe and found a sportswear from it for Zhang Zifeng to change into. The latter's original clothes were already dirty because the fight with Qiao Sen was too fierce.

As for Zhang Zifeng's wound, he didn't find a suitable gauze, so he could only be exposed to the air as he said. However, Ren Fei was surprised to find that compared with the afternoon, the wound on his arm seemed to be much smaller.

Zhang Zifeng's recovery ability is much faster than that of a normal person!

There were too many surprising things on the man, and Ren Fei was already surprised by it, and she quickly focused on cooking. I haven't eaten since I was caught in the morning, and my stomach is already growling.

The lettuce in the kitchen has turned into dried vegetables, but there is still half a bag of rice left, and even gas can be used, which makes Ren Fei feel good and start cooking happily. Xiong Xianming was not idle, mentioning the rope and the bucket to carry water, and soon the water tank was full.

Zhang Zifeng also wanted to participate in labor, but was stopped by Ren Fei. He is now a wounded man and can legally evade work.

In fact, there is still a lot of food in the trunk of the Subaru, and the variety is richer, but the distance is a bit far, if Zhang Zifeng goes alone, Xiong Xianming and Ren Fei are not at ease; If all three of them leave, a bunch of survivors should panic again.

I'll have to talk about it tomorrow.

Although the dinner was a bit monotonous, the three people who reunited still had a good meal. Zhang Zifeng's appetite was amazing as usual, but the other two people had already disappeared.

After eating, Xiong Xianming proposed to go out for a walk. This guy slept very hard last night, didn't actually participate in both battles, and still has a lot of energy. Of course, it may also be to give a couple space to be alone.

Zhang Zifeng and Ren Fei simply cleaned the bedroom and lay down. After a busy day, both of them need to rest.

Without others, some things can finally be said, Zhang Zifeng asked straight to the point:

"What the hell is going on?"

Today's battle is really dangerous, and the sudden rebellion of the zombies behind Qiao Sen is the key to victory. Everyone thought that Zhang Zifeng did it, but only he understood that it was actually Ren Fei's credit.

Thinking of the conversation between the two people in the tent in the morning, Zhang Zifeng was almost certain that the girl had the kind of spiritual power that Lin Xue said.

"I don't know." Ren Fei said: "I can feel the presence of zombies, including you. The situation was very critical today, and I didn't think much about it at the time, trying my best to control the zombie behind Qiao Sen, but I didn't expect to be able to really command it to make some movements. ”

The two of them looked at each other, so wouldn't Ren Fei become the chosen one?

As far as the Chosen One encountered so far, in addition to being able to control zombies, it doesn't seem to be any different from ordinary humans on the surface, and there is not much strengthening in the body.

The only thing that impressed Zhang Zifeng was Lin Xue's long nails, which were extremely sharp and hard, sharpened like mud, at least the iron cover outside the balcony couldn't stop her.

He grabbed Ren Fei's hand, soft and slightly cold, and took a closer look at it through the clear glow of the moonlight, but found no changes, and there was no sign of any longer nails.

Ren Fei continued: "After that, I tried to control some other zombies, but I didn't succeed. After thinking about it, he added: "Maybe my strength is too weak to control too many zombies." ”

Zhang Zifeng remembered that the zombie left behind Qiao Sen was dry and thin. The strong ones were all commanded by Qiao Sen to fight him, and it was this most "useless" zombie who killed him.

The two of them were silent, one had many characteristics of zombies, and the other evolved in the direction of the Chosen One, the more the two of them looked together, the more they looked like the primary version of Lin Xue and the "little white face".

And it was the two of them who killed a Chosen One, Qiao Sen, and rescued a large group of humans, and felt that the relationship between friend and foe was becoming more and more chaotic.

"Can you control me, then?" Zhang Zifeng said. At that time, when Qiao Sen launched a mental shock, his mind was in chaos, without Ren Fei's words, he really could have become a puppet controlled by Qiao Sen. But the last step is missing, and I don't know what it's like to be controlled by the Chosen One.

"No," Ren Fei replied dryly, sticking out his tongue, and continued: "Actually, I tried secretly, but I didn't see any reaction from you at all." ”

Suddenly discovering that she can control zombies, she can't help but try it everywhere. Zhang Zifeng thought about it, he really didn't feel anything, and he didn't know if it was because he was too strong or because Ren Fei's mental power was too weak.

"When did it start?" He then asked. His own evolution into zombies was a slow process, and Ren Fei seemed to suddenly have such an ability.

"Just last night." Ren Fei's face turned a little red, and then said, "After the two of us, I feel different. ”

Zhang Zifeng was stunned. I must be a virus carrier now, and the two of them performed Zhou Gong's salute in the tent last night, wouldn't it be because of this that Ren Fei was also infected, making her the chosen one?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was possible. The two of them have also been heaved before, only yesterday there were no safety measures!

But I'm more like a zombie! Why didn't Ren Fei strengthen his body and increase his strength like himself?

"Do you want to drink blood, then? Or, cannibalism? Zhang Zifeng asked. By far, the main criterion for distinguishing humans from zombies is whether they want to eat people. Including himself, he will always have the desire to drink blood and eat human flesh, and he can barely control this behavior by relying on his own willpower.

Ren Fei's head shook like a wave drum, his face showed panic, and said, "No, absolutely not!" I don't have any desire to drink blood! ”

After discussing for a long time, there was no result, but Ren Fei was able to control the zombies, and the two of them tacitly did not say anything. Everyone is already very reluctant to accept Zhang Zifeng, who is a half-finished zombie, if he knows that the girl has similar abilities to Qiao Sen, wouldn't she want to fry the pot?

There was so much to understand about this sudden outbreak of the plague. Both of them are just mortals, and if they can't figure it out, they can only sleep first.
