Chapter 12: Infighting Erupts

The sky over the depressed city was surprisingly clear, there was not a single cloud in the clear blue sky, not even a single bird had skimmed.

And in those metropolises, there is no longer the bustle of traffic and the hustle and bustle of people. Cars aren't moving, neon isn't flashing. Occasionally, there are some electronic devices that have not lost power or are still playing the hits of the moment. And under these devices are crowded zombies, some listening quietly, some dancing with their teeth and claws......

The owners of the once metropolis live like rats in damp basements, in narrow cable shafts, in filthy garbage dumps. I also live in a dream world that I once lost for a long time.

All these scenes are not alive, but dry. have become traces engraved by history.

……

He Hao, who was in danger, groped in the dark, and unconsciously came to the furniture section, clutching the last spear in his hand, as cautious as a frightened bird.

He knew that if he encountered the Destroyer again, he would probably have to explain here, and not only that, but he also needed to watch out for the zombies hiding in the shadows and pounced on him at any time.

The previous battle had taught him that the spear in his hand was of no use to the Destroyer, so he set out to find the real weapon.

The furniture section of the supermarket has good supplies inside, and after He Hao killed two wandering zombies, he found a complete set of exquisite small multi-functional toolboxes - 350mm traps; double-flush small screwdriver; pointed, beveled, large vise; Ratchet wrenches, socket caps of all common calibers; Inner hexagonal lever sleeve; miniature multimeter; electrician's knives; Utility knife and 10 blades.

He Hao gently stroked this set of German imported toolboxes that had been priced at 560 yuan, and liked it very much, knowing that in the last days, the material productivity was basically lost, and everything must be damaged. If you don't have a good tool to repair it, you have to abandon it.

He Hao's mind equates tools with weapons.

Not only that, He Hao also found more than half a meter of stainless steel crowbar here, which is particularly handy in terms of length and weight. The body of the stick is pitch black, and the curved hooks and oblique blades at both ends are painted red, which is quite beautiful. In particular, the design of the six-diamond-shaped stick body and anti-skid pattern simply makes this tool the ultimate.

It's like it's perfect for dealing with zombies. The reason why He Hao chose knives as weapons like ordinary people is because he has learned a lesson in the past!

In those days, when slashing people on the street, the blade was easy to break when it collided with tough objects, and it was easy to get stuck when it hit the joints of the flesh. He Hao didn't want to go down with a knife and split the head of a zombie, but because he couldn't draw the knife, he was bitten to death by another zombie from behind.

And this town is surrounded by mountains, and there must be camping supplies, so he found the area under his patient sneaking and searching.

He opted for a large-capacity black backpack, enough to hold the 13 kilograms of food he'd collected earlier, as well as a well-designed kit. And there's still a lot of backpack space left.

He Hao was not even satisfied with bringing two black medium-sized waist bags that were worn cross-body around his waist. One of the fanny packs has a large thermos pot in it to store life-saving water. The other, which he intends to use in the future, is to stock up on much-needed medicines.

Not only these, He Hao also found two sets of ordinary mountaineering clothes, although the workmanship is not very detailed, but the multi-position pockets and wear-resistant and dirt-resistant characteristics are far better than other kinds of clothing. The main thing is that he was able to change out of his prison uniform in order to erase his identity.

Unexpectedly, He Hao also found a multi-functional strong light inspection flashlight. This kind of flashlight is different from ordinary flashlight, and there are as many as 6 diode light-emitting bulb beams. Bright, durable, power-saving, and not easily damaged. The rechargeable built-in battery provides continuous illumination for up to 12 hours and is protected against water and pressure at a depth of 60 meters. There are three gears of light distance, and there is also a light and shadow flashing signal function for continuous switching.

He Hao greedily took 5 of these flashlights in a row, after all, after this time, I don't know if I can get this high-quality product.

Later, He Hao also found a domestic radio on the container next to him, although the style is a little ugly, but the shell is hard, the most important is small, only the size of two cigarette cases. The battery used is a size 5 single cell. To this end, He Hao also deliberately found 4 boxes of high-quality No. 5 batteries, a total of 80 pieces. and 1 box of rechargeable batteries and small chargers of the same brand.

After He Hao put these in his backpack, the supplies that should be prepared were almost complete. On the way back, I brought a large bottle of mineral water with me, and there was no danger.

After returning to his comfort zone, he changed into a blood-stained prison uniform. Then he put food, fresh water, maintenance tools, energy supplies, and a set of hiking clothes into the hiking bag neatly, which was full and heavy, but He Hao didn't care about these. Because these are all necessities in the wild.

He even planned to sneak back and take a roll of small tents with him. But the occasional roar of the Destroyer outside discouraged him from that idea.

When He Hao was ready, he began to plan how to escape from here. At the same time, after assembling the radio, he began to search for channels, trying to find out about the outside world.

As for the computer, it has become scrap metal after losing its electrical energy, and it has long been cushioned under He Hao's buttocks.

……

Chen Zheng, Xue Liang and others, who live under the same roof, are also making the same plan. Their experience was much more bleak than He Hao's.

Last night, the armed police patrolling the defense were bitten by a zombie because they were sleeping. Although the armed policeman shot the zombie, he could not escape the doom of the corpse.

After returning to the restaurant, he did not dare to speak up, and finally died of organ failure. The result is predictable - chaos erupts in the restaurant, and a group of survivors mutinied. Although it was reluctantly suppressed by Chen Zheng, the loss was extremely serious.

There were only 50 rounds of pistol ammunition left.

The ammunition of the submachine gun was completely depleted.

Only 9 survivors remained. An old man in his 50s, Lao Wangtou, is not tall, very thin, and his thin face is bright and shrewd.

There is also a woman in her 30s, Liu Yiyi. Yes, she is the widow of the strong man who sacrificed his life to save Chen Zheng before. And their children survived. A big-eyed 14-year-old girl - Xiaobei.

The rest was a man in his 20s and two high school students. The male was honored by the two students as "Brother Dahai". He's a well-known gangster in town, and those two students are his little doglegs. Follow Brother Dahai to make a name for himself, the tall and fat one is called Xiaolong, and the short and thin one is called Xiaohu.

There are only 2 armed police officers left. One serves as a squad leader of the armed police force, and the other is an ordinary armed police soldier.

All members of the police force died.

Of the four leaders who had commanded the people, only three remained. Chen Zheng, Xue Liang and Xue Peng. As for the poor assistant Liu Ruixiang, he had already been pushed into the arms of the zombies by Xue Peng, who was trying to survive, as a bait, and then Xue Peng was shot through with a gun. When it came to his death, Liu Ruixiang couldn't believe that the seemingly peaceful Xue Peng was so ruthless.

Compared with the lack of ammunition and manpower, what made Chen Zheng feel even more desperate was that all the food in the reserve was contaminated with the blood of zombies. No one dared to guarantee that they would not be infected after eating, so Chen Zheng had to give up all the food. At the same time, he suggested leaving the place while everyone had enough energy.

After hearing about this proposal, Xue Liang objected. He walked up to Chen Zheng, held the gun in one hand, patted the body of the gun with the other, and said sarcastically: "I said Leader Chen, have you ever considered why should we kill this bit of ammunition?"

Chen Zheng looked at Xue Liang, and then at his two remaining subordinates, and his heart was broken. He said bitterly: "But stay here, we will die after all."

"There's such a big supermarket in the place we guard! The contents are enough for us to eat for a long time, how can we die? Look outside! You listen outside! Going out is a dead end, I don't agree! Xue Liang pinned the pistol back to his waist and said firmly.

"Supermarket? Hum. Chen Zheng glanced at Xue Liang and sneered.

After Xue Liang lit the last cigarette, he threw the empty cigarette case on the ground. After thinking for a while, he said, "Why don't you ...... I'll send some men, you give me some ammunition, and I'll go to the supermarket and bring out some food. Prove it to you. ”

"No way!" Chen Zheng took the case and said resolutely: "The last ammunition is the hole card we killed!" If you want to stay here, you stay! I'm going with my men! Then with a wave of his arm, he said to the few remaining survivors: "Whoever wants to leave, follow me, and if they don't, stay here, and I won't stop them."

After speaking, the two armed policemen naturally stood on Chen Zheng's side. The remaining survivors looked at each other, and they all walked to Chen Zheng's side. The only ones left are Liu Yi and Xiaobei's mother and daughter. She cried, "I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving...... I'm going to stay with my husband......"

The old Wang Tou leaned over to Liu Yi and whispered: "Sister, you should leave quickly, if everyone leaves, that Xue calf will not abuse you?" When the time comes, you may still be ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was pushed away by Xue Liang, stumbling and stumbling at the dining table. He shouted, "Old thing, if you want to get out, get out of here!" How much nonsense! ”

In the end, the old king blinked, walked to Chen Zheng's side, and sighed helplessly.

Xue Peng leaned into Xue Liang's ear and whispered, "Brother." You put the girl's business first, the bullets in our hands are only 12 rounds, how can we live! You discuss with Chen Zheng's old boy and let him stay some. ”

Only then did Xue Liang realize the seriousness of the situation, and hurriedly stopped Chen Zheng and the others and said, "Wait!"

"What? Repented? Chen Zheng actually didn't want to leave Xue Liang and Xue Peng behind, not because he was a good man, but because he was reluctant to let Xue Liang have the bullets in their hands.

"Not really!" Xue Liang propped up his palm to make a blocking posture and said, "You go, you can." But you have to save some ammunition anyway, right? ”

"I told you so! Ammunition won't leave you a child! Chen Zheng's words were convincing and loud.

"Bang! Boom! Boom! The sudden burst of gunfire stunned everyone present. An armed police soldier was shot three times in the body and fell in a pool of blood, one shot in the heart and two in the head.

"Be careful!" The captain of the armed police threw Chen Zheng into his arms, and then the two rolled to the door at the corner of the restaurant, and immediately pulled out their pistols and prepared to fight back.

It was none other than Xue Peng who shot it. All of a sudden, he put down his gun and grabbed the ammunition.

I saw Xue Peng holding the pistol horizontally and resting the muzzle on his other raised arm. Two more shots around the corner to suppress it!

The captain of the armed police heard the sound and identified the position, and after determining Xue Peng's location, he counted his guns in his heart. But Xue Peng didn't shoot again after firing these 5 shots......

Chen Zheng, who came back to his senses, made a "cover shot" gesture to the captain of the armed police, and also took out a pistol.

But the captain of the armed police shook his head slightly and made a "quick retreat" gesture in response. Just in this round of confrontation, he already knew that Xue Peng's grasp of the battle was by no means general.

The sudden change made those survivors run away, and everyone didn't know why Xue Peng suddenly shot the armed police. Not to mention them, even Xue Liang hid under the table, for some reason, he was trembling with fright.

Xue Peng was very bold, and moved quietly to the side unhurriedly, his eyes never left the cover of Chen Zheng and the captain.

The sun shone in the west, and the light of the drifting dust rolled in the light. The tension of the atmosphere seems to make the air condense.

Suddenly, a swaying shadow leaked from the floor next to the dining table!

Xue Peng seized this fleeting opportunity and fired two shots in a row!

The bullet pierced the thin plank dining table like lightning, and before the flying sawdust could completely explode, the bullet found its target behind it - the bullet hit the right lung and abdomen of the armed police captain.

No missing shots!

The intense pain and respiratory failure caused the burly man to collapse to the ground, and the whole person fell out violently.

When he was dying, the captain raised his arm with all his strength and tried to kill Xue Peng. But when he thought of it, Xue Peng actually knelt on the ground and dragged Xiaobei out from under the table and blocked him in front of him. Let his mother plead, "Let my child go!" I don't have any relatives anymore......"

Just as the captain hesitated, a bullet exploded in his head!

Chen Zheng couldn't believe all the changes that happened in front of him, so he instinctively turned around and fled into the mall......

After a moment of silence in the restaurant, Xue Liang slowly moved his fat body to stand up, and looked at his brother again with a smile.

On the ordinary face, there is nothing outstanding about the regular facial features. But his eyes were sharp.

Xue Peng let go of Xiaobei and said to Xue Liang: "Brother, go and search how many bullets they have, I have basically used them up."

"Good...... Okay......" Xue Liang hurriedly nodded yes.

The remaining survivors also looked at Xue Peng. It's like looking at him like a skinning ghost.

After Xue Liang came back, he happily said to Xue Peng: "32 rounds!"

Xue Peng snorted coldly and said, "Chen Zheng, the old immortal, currently has the most bullets in his hand, it's a pity that he escaped." Then, with a click, the loaded pistol was loaded, pinned to his waist, and hidden close to his body.

"Pengzi, do you think we should go and find something to eat...... Brother is hungry...... "Xue Liang is a waste, if he doesn't eat some meat and oily food, he always feels hungry."

Xue Peng waved his hand and said, "No need." I've hidden some of them before, and under the counter, let's have a full meal before we think about it in the long run. ”

Xue Liang hurriedly trotted under the counter to look through a package made of torn curtain cloth, and when it was untied, it contained bacon jerky, canned braised pork and three packs of snow-white bagged steamed buns.

His eyes lit up when he saw this, and he hurriedly extended a thumbs up to this younger brother. Praise: "High! High! It's really high! ”
