This time, Meng Qingqiang and his entourage chose two pickup trucks, and the reason why they did not drive a van with a larger cargo capacity was that the cab of the box cargo could only seat three, while the pickup truck could seat five people. In addition, the current road has long been different from the past, the lack of human maintenance, coupled with the erosion of wild grasses and other wilderness, the road conditions have become worse and worse, plus a few days ago heavy snow, so the same can carry goods and the off-road ability is also relatively strong four-wheel drive pickup truck has become their best choice.

The eight of them and two black hands were divided into two cars, one was driven by Meng Qingqiang, carrying Bai Ying and three villagers, while the other was driven by Wang Yan and Xing Tianliang was the co-pilot, and the two black hands in the back were holding one of them, which was Ji Liang who spoke in the cafeteria. After speaking in the cafeteria, Meng Qingqiang signaled to take Ji Liang to the transit station to try his luck and see if he could really contact the organization as he said, and Ji Liang gladly accepted this.

But along the way, Ji Liang was like sitting on pins and needles, surrounded by two people who were motionless and completely unresponsive, and no one would be comfortable.

In order not to cause panic, Meng Qingqiang concealed the identity of the black hands, and disguised them, from the outside, two black hands, completely dressed as armed special police with a hood, but this made Ji Liang, who was sitting between them, even more uncomfortable, he always felt as if he was a prisoner escorted by two special police.

Xing Tianliang glanced at Ji Liang, who looked loveless behind him, from the rearview mirror, and couldn't help but smile, but the meaning of schadenfreude in this laughter was undoubtedly missing.

Wang Yan, who was driving, heard Xing Tianliang's laughter, glanced at him, and didn't speak, but at this time Xing Tianliang asked, "Sister Wang, how did you go out with the village chief in the morning?" Wang Yan was silent for a while, and then replied: "I didn't see my brother's bones, and I didn't find any trace of him nearby. Then he said no more.

It turned out that the reason why she took her this time was completely the result of her own request, because she would pass by her original home on the way, so with a glimmer of hope, she took the initiative to find Meng Qingqiang to ask to join, and hoped to take the time to go home to see if she could be lucky enough to find her brother.

Meng Qingqiang agreed, and personally accompanied her, returned to her home, but the body was empty, and then the two searched nearby, but in addition to filling dozens of "dead corpses" under Meng Qingqiang's hands, there was no gain, looking at Wang Yan, who was a little depressed, Meng Qingqiang could only comfort her and say that no result may be the best result, maybe, her younger brother will soon recover his memory.

knew that Meng Qingqiang was actually comforting herself, but Wang Yan was still willing to believe him, no matter what it was, as long as it was what he said, she was willing to believe it. No one knows that compared to Liu Tiefeng, Wang Yan's admiration for Meng Qingqiang is no less than him. In addition to gentleness, it may be more direct to make the hard shell broken.

It was getting dark, and even with snow chains installed, the slippery road surface and the large number of obstacles on the road made it difficult to drive, and it was even more difficult to move forward at night without street lights.

Xing Tianliang, who was in charge of guiding the convoy, opened the map on his mobile phone and studied it carefully, and now the artificial satellite in the sky may still be running, but the navigation system has long been out of order, and he can only rely on the previous map to judge the route of advance. And this road Xing Tianliang is also the first time to go, before he and Wang Husheng went to the transfer station, they took the waterway, but now the water surface has frozen, and the waterway is naturally impassable.

The map shows that there is a town on the side of the road not far ahead, so Xing Tianliang discussed it with Meng Qingqiang on the walkie-talkie, and he will rest there tonight, and then continue on the road after dawn.

At night, cars slowly make their way into town. But before they could find a suitable place to stay, they vaguely saw a firelight in the distance, and around the firelight, a large number of figures were chaotically intertwined, and it was obvious that someone had encountered the situation somewhere.

Xing Tianliang, who found out about the situation, discussed it with Meng Qingqiang in the back car and decided to take a look

When they arrived, there was a short tunnel in front of the people in the car, and there was already a group of people, old and young, who had built a bonfire, and it seemed that they had planned to camp here. The cold weather makes the corpses indoors, so in order to avoid danger, humans will choose to camp outdoors in an open area.

The old and weak were gathering together with their backs to the flames, and in front of the defenseless men stood several teenagers and women, who were nervously guarded with weapons in hand. On the outermost layer are several men in their prime who are wielding weapons such as knives and sticks to resist the incoming enemy.

What is surprising is that these "enemies" in front of them are neither humans nor corpses, but a large group of huge wild dogs.

These vicious dogs, some of them still have collars around their necks, but they are no longer as well-behaved and cute as pets, they open their mouths splashing with saliva, staring at blood-red eyes, and keep pounceing forward, fierce and abnormal. At this point, they are not so much dogs as wolves.

Although the people who were attacked also had a small number of firearms, they should not have much ammunition, and in order to avoid accidentally injuring the men in front of them, only when the vicious dogs rushed through the first layer of defense, the people with guns behind them arrived and fired.

But these mad beasts are not afraid of the occasional gunfire and the imminent light of fire. There was no fear of the cars driving behind them and honking loudly, and even a few of them had turned around and pounced in the direction of a convoy.

The number of wild dogs is too much, the men guarding the periphery are exhausted, and the vision of the night is not good, this group of people is already in danger in the eyes of Meng Qingqiang and others, several larger wild dogs slammed down the two men on the periphery, and at the same time a few rushed past their side, straight to the inside, a young girl didn't know whether there was a problem with the gun in her hand, or she was cowardly in her heart, and she was also knocked down before she could shoot, and the cry rang out for a while.

At this time, someone found two cars coming, as if they had found hope for life, and shouted for help. I saw two cars accelerating sharply one after the other, after hitting a few wild dogs, stopped on the side of everyone and the bonfire, the car door opened immediately, seeing that several wild dogs pounced without hesitation, but saw a big foot kicked out of the cab, the vicious dog that rushed to the front screamed, and was kicked out more than ten meters away, there was no movement, people who saw this scene couldn't help but be surprised, dozens of kilograms of big dogs kicked to death, it seems that this person is by no means an ordinary person.

Meng Qingqiang arranged for the car to stop on the side of the fire, then opened the car door, and before he could get out of the car, he saw a huge dog head coming to the front, he kicked it out without hesitation, and then jumped out of the car without looking at the result, and then, he controlled the two black hands in the front car to get out of the car.

Soon, the two black hands in front, Meng Qingqiang and Wang Yan in the back, joined the battle, and the other people in the car also got out of the car with guns at this time, but they did not rush forward with Meng Qingqiang, but leaned back against the car and shot on the spot to hunt the approaching wild dogs. This is a tactic that Meng Qingqiang and the others discussed before they set off, if they are in danger, the four people will rush forward to fight in close combat, and the rest of the people will support them from a distance with their backs to the vehicle fire.

Meng Qingqiang did not hold a machete like the black hand and Wang Yan, but the killing brought by him with his bare hands was no less than that of others, as long as the wild dogs hit by him fell to the ground in an instant and lost their breath.

I saw him rush into the inner circle with three fists and two feet, grabbed the wild dog that was biting frantically on the girl's body with one hand, and reached into the dog's mouth without letting go with the other hand, and tore it into two pieces from the mouth, and a large piece of fishy blood and internal organs poured on the girl's body, and the girl who was difficult to get rid of couldn't help but be stunned and then vomited loudly.

Meng Qingqiang, who threw down the two pieces of dog corpses, did not care about the girl who vomited, but turned around and pounced on other vicious dogs, the violent gunshots, the screaming of wild dogs, and the sound of people crying and vomiting were mixed together, crazy and chaotic.

Gradually, the number of wild dogs became smaller and smaller, and at last with a howl, they retreated into the darkness, and the people who survived the catastrophe gathered again around the campfire. Bai Ying took out the medicine that was in the car, and together with several women and elderly people in the group, she helped the injured person to deal with the wound.

However, a tall man ignored the injuries on his body and came to Meng Qingqiang's side on the side, and he had already seen that Meng Qingqiang was the leader of this group of latecomers.

At this time, Meng Qingqiang was holding a cigarette and looking at the direction of the retreating wild dogs, and two black hands stood quietly behind him.

Looking at Meng Qingqiang, who had only one eye left and a scar on his face, the man swallowed his saliva and said with a smile: "Thank you so much brother for your timely help, otherwise we might become those beast shit tonight, my name is Yang Bin, what do you call my brother." ”

"My surname is Meng, Meng Qingqiang, I didn't expect these beasts to be so fierce, there are really not enough people for them to gnaw, how did you meet them?" Meng Qingqiang shook hands with Yang Bin and looked at the injured man.

Yang Bin is not tall, but he is very burly, I don't know if he was born or just tired, and his face with a black beard like a steel needle is red at this time.

"Don't mention it, we were targeted by these beasts before, and a person was dragged away at night, and then they were like wolves, always following us, the car couldn't drive fast, there was no way to get rid of them, as soon as we stopped to rest, we surrounded around, we didn't dare to get out of the car easily, this afternoon, our car broke down, no choice but to abandon the car, I thought they didn't dare to come forward if they lit the fire, who would have thought that these beasts were not very afraid of fire, fortunately you arrived in time, otherwise the consequences are really unpredictable."

After listening to his words, Meng Qingqiang was also a little sad, after the end of the world, human beings did not have a huge base and fell to the bottom of the food chain, not only corpses, but now even wild dogs have become human predators.

Seeing his stupid look, Yang Bin asked curiously, "Why, Brother Meng hasn't encountered a beast before?" Meng Qingqiang smiled. I have met him, but when I met him, it either entered the stomach of his family, or he became dried meat and bacon.

At this time, Bai Ying and a young girl came over, and Meng Qingqiang, who saw them, introduced each other: "This is my lover, Bai Ying, she is a doctor, this is Yang Bin." Hearing that Bai Ying was Meng Qingqiang's wife, he kept thanking the husband and wife for their help, and then pointed to the girl and said: "She is my sister's name is Yang Lili, Lili, and I don't thank Brother Meng, if it weren't for him, you would have died by now, and I would have let you stay inside!" Hearing her brother's complaint, Yang Lili's small mouth was choked, and she hurriedly expressed her gratitude.

Meng Qingqiang smiled and waved his hand, revealing a "hideous" smile, the little girl who looked at it was stunned again, and Bai Ying on the side smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, he just looks scary." Then he said to Yang Bin: "Brother Yang, deal with the wounds on your body quickly, or they will be very easy to infect." Those dogs are not afraid of fire, and many of them are former pets, so it is unlikely that they will have rabies, but if possible, as long as they have not developed the disease, it is better to get a rabies vaccination." Yang Bin nodded in response,

As the cold night deepened, people quickly forgot their fears and sorrows in the warmth of the campfire, and the atmosphere for the aftermath of the catastrophe gradually intensified.
