Chapter 26: Doubts
Ten people were divided into five groups, each group chose a family to drill into the yard, Qiao Feng was tall and big, and he turned over and jumped into the yard as soon as he pressed the fence stake, and Li Ru in the back also did the same, and he didn't want to accidentally plant a heel in the process, and immediately got up, but fortunately no one paid attention.
Qiao Feng put * on his shoulder, pulled open the door with the muzzle of the gun, and Li Ru followed behind him with a knife.
As soon as the door opened, Li Ru asked tentatively, mainly to attract the monster who was hiding: "Is anyone there......?"
Empty and no one responded...
"Let's go!" Qiao Feng walked out of the courtyard with a gun. Li Ru left the courtyard with Qiao Feng with great interest, and Qiao Feng, who had already walked out of the door, pulled out the dagger he was wearing on his right leg, and scratched it twice on the lintel casually: "Make a mark on the door after the inspection." ”
The fighters moved quickly, going from house to house, and soon searched half of the village. Gunshots rang out over the small village, and the warriors mechanically knocked down one monster after another, from indifference at the beginning, to the heartbeat in the middle, and then to some numbness at the end...... Such a small village is so full of corpses and blood everywhere that it is more like a slaughterhouse than a slaughterhouse! Ordinary people will feel that their hearts are flickering when they kill too many chickens, not to mention that monsters still have the appearance of human beings? But they're all soldiers, and somebody has to do something.
Qiao Feng felt that his heart was trembling terribly, it was not good to go on like this, after all, everyone was still a soldier in the era of peace, no matter how calm it seemed on the surface now, if it continued like this, sooner or later someone would have a mental breakdown, and this kind of thing had to be gradual......
Suddenly, the roar of the monkey came over the radio: "Helper, there's a living one here!" ”
"What?" A burst of ecstasy suddenly washed away the shadow in Qiao Feng's heart, "Where?" "The second one on the west side of the road is!"
After the monkey reported the location, Qiao Feng took Li Ru and rushed directly: "All the people in charge of the search, come over after carefully checking the place you are checking now!" ”
Finally hearing a little bit of good news, everyone's emotions are high, even if only one person can be rescued, it is a good thing for them.
The three of them rushed into the open courtyard, and the warriors in the group of monkeys were waving in front of the door with rifles, Qiao Feng strode past him and asked hurriedly, "How is it?" ”
"It looks good, it's quite energetic, the monkeys are in there." The warrior followed Qiao Feng's side and replied with the same hurried pace. Li Ru followed Qiao Feng and stepped into the door, the door was very traditional two-room style, there was a stove on each side of the main entrance, there was a cauldron with a lid on the stove, and then there was a door on the left and right, the monkey was standing in front of the door slightly and spoke inside: "Fellow, don't be afraid, we are here to save your ......"
Li Ru couldn't recognize the face under the gas mask at all, but he could tell by the sound on the radio that he was a monkey. When the monkey saw Qiao Feng coming, he let go of half of his body and said, "It's him, since I came, he has been nesting in the corner of the house and refusing to come out, and he only knows how to shake his head when he says anything, as if he is frightened." Qiao Feng looked at the survivors inside and didn't speak, Li Ru interjected and glanced inside; Zhou Botong was much taller than Li Ru, and he squatted down a little and crossed the heads of several people to see the situation inside; The warrior who was in the monkey group had already seen the situation inside, but at this time he followed behind, and did not come to the front to join in the fun.
The survivor in the house is a middle-aged man, he looks honest, his figure is not as shriveled as he imagined, it seems that life is not bad after the catastrophe, he is dressed in gray cloth clothes, his gray face is full of panic, his eyes wander in the room, although he can't say it, but Li Ru always feels that something is wrong! Li Ru didn't know why he felt this way, but he just felt that something was wrong with this person.
He elbowed his elbow to his teammates who couldn't recognize people and said, "You say, it's been almost a year, isn't his complexion too good?" ”
Li Ru took a closer look again, the dust on the man's face seemed to have just been smeared, although the middle-aged man could not say that his face was full of red light, but his complexion was indeed not bad, and Li Ru still had some ability to observe his face.
He fixed his gaze on the middle-aged man's face, the dirt on his face was like dust in a corner that had not been cleaned thoroughly, the dirty places were very dirty, the clean places were too clean, and some places showed the color of the dust itself! But under normal circumstances, the dust on his face will not be like this on his face at all! Did it just rub it on your face? Unintentional or intentional? But why did he do it? Li Ru couldn't think of any reason to need this in front of them, so his heart suddenly moved, and he dragged the monkey: "Have you ever entered the house?" The monkey looked at him in amazement, shook his head, and said, "When I see him, he avoids me like a ghost, how can I get near him?" ”
"Something is wrong with this person!" Li Ru suddenly said this, and the monkey subconsciously raised his gun and aimed at the middle-aged man. In his opinion, although Li Ru is not useful in combat, he is crawling out of the infected area, he said that something is wrong, could it be that this person is an infected person who has not yet attacked?
Before Li Ru could stop the monkey's overreaction, the middle-aged man suddenly couldn't hold back anymore, and cried out, stepped back with his two feet, shook his hands again and again, and screamed: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, I don't want to die, I don't want to die......" said and fell into the corner, and the whole person shrank into a ball and trembled. The monkey was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Qiao Feng, this is obviously a normal person, at most he can only say that he is scared, but there should be no problem mentally! Then why did he pretend to be distracted just now?
The two of them cast a suspicious gaze on Li Ru's face at the same time. Li Ru hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "I just said it casually intuitively, don't take it too seriously." ”
"I just think his complexion is a little too good, and his face is dirty and unnatural, that's all", the monkey's face under the gas mask turned red, turned around and said inside: "Fellow, don't be afraid, we are soldiers, we are here to save you!" The monkey asked himself if he would have been terrified if he had seen a group of soldiers wearing gas masks after such a strange catastrophe - though he would have preferred the scene of the survivors hugging each other with tears in their eyes.
Qiao Feng's gaze stopped on Li Ru's face, and after thinking for a while, he said: "This is not a city, there is some pure food at home, there is no shortage of food, and it is normal for the complexion to be better than those survivors in the city, right?" ”。
Li Ru was right to think about it, and said with an embarrassed smile: "You are right, I ignored this." ”
Since ancient times, the occurrence of major disasters will inevitably lead to cannibalism, Li Ru can understand this helplessness, but Li Ru can't accept it, so he deliberately tried that man just now, Qiao Feng's words are reasonable, the countryside is not better than the city, it is normal to have some food and dried meat at home, but Qiao Feng ignored an important problem, the disaster has happened for nearly half a year, Li Ru himself is also a rural population, the current farmer is not as good as before, will not save too much food at home, most of the things are bought in the market, This place is not close to the market, which means that the materials in this place will not be very sufficient, at least it is impossible to guarantee that it can last for nearly half a year and still have no food, strange is strange, in the absence of any evidence, Li Ru does not dare to talk nonsense.
There was a burst of admiration on the radio at the same time, and the big ass couldn't help but interject: "Dude, you really have you, there are a lot of flowers and intestines in your belly", there was a burst of laughter from the soldiers on the radio, and Qiao Feng scolded with a smile: "Don't talk nonsense."
Li Ru looked embarrassed, and he couldn't tell whether they were praising themselves or hurting themselves.
"Helper! You'd better come and check it out! An angry tone suddenly came over the radio. Qiao Feng patted the shoulder of the big ass and said, "Before figuring out what he is afraid of, keep an eye on him." He turned and walked out the door, and Li Ru still followed.
