The entire bamboo forest began to burn, and the "crackling" sound was mixed with the wails of zombies who couldn't escape. Smoke billowed into the room, choking on tears, and Xiao Lin and I retreated to the door that led to the underground.
"Where do you think this will lead?" I asked as I opened the door and coughed.
"I don't know, it's better anywhere than here, let's go down!" Xiao Lin fanned her nose hard, as if this would drive the smoke away. She was just about to go down, but she remembered something again and said, "Wait a minute! "Smoke back to the outer doorββββ there are zombies we have killedββββ set the corpses on fire, and the fire quickly ignites, engulfing the corpses and the door together.
Xiao Lin returned to me and said, "So that the zombies outside won't chase after me!" Her face was smoky one by one, like a zebra. I should have looked worse!
Entering the door and locking it from the inside, the smoke immediately faded a lot. Temporarily freed from the entanglement of zombies, I let out a long breath. As soon as I relaxed, I immediately felt the burning pain on my body, and I couldn't help but hold on to the wall and moan.
"Does it hurt?" Xiao Lin asked.
I wanted to say "it's nothing", but the words came to my lips and became: "Of course it hurts, if you don't believe it, burn it yourself!" "The burns on my body were skin wounds, and they didn't hurt to the point of dying or living. The reason why I say this is because I have just finished the "chest attack incident", and I am afraid that she will find me unlucky; If the injury is more serious, she naturally can't beat me again.
Xiao Lin snorted and said, "Yes!" β
Turn on the flashlight, go down the steps step by step, the light will weaken by one point every step down, and after going down a dozen steps, there is nothing but the glimmer of the flashlight; The sun is scorching on the ground, and it is the height of summer, but the cold here is pressing, which makes people get goosebumps.
The sound of "booming" water and the roars of zombies became clearer. "Slow down, be careful! We don't know what's ahead! I said to Xiao Lin with an axe. In fact, it's not a big deal, judging by the sound, the number of zombies below shouldn't be too much! Now that zombies have become a part of life, it would be a little uncomfortable if you can't see them!
There was a turn in the stairs, and after turning around, the eyes immediately opened upββββ it turned out that I had arrived at the underground parking lot of the community! The last steps of the stairs were already submerged, and we stopped at the water's edge.
It was pitch black, with only some light near the staircase leading to the top. There are quite a few of these staircases, and there are no less than 10 places near and far. I don't know if it was rainwater backing up or something else, but there was a lot of water here, turning the entire parking lot into a large lake. There were a large number of cars in the lake that did not drive away, most of them cars, which were half-flooded, and only the roofs of the cars were exposed, and from a distance, they looked like rows of huge turtles.
There was a roar, and some zombies approached the light of the flashlight, and the water was up to their waists. We raised our flashlight and took a look, there are a lot of zombies here, but they are scattered all over the parking lot, and the density is not large. And they have been blistered for a long time, and they are swollen like sumo wrestlers, and they walk slower than turtles, so they don't pose a threat at all.
Xiao Lin looked at the roofs and asked, "How far can we go if we walk on the roof?" β
I looked forward and said, "It shouldn't be a problem to get to that staircase over there, take a look and come back!" The first car was a little farther away from us, Xiao Lin did a pole vault with a barbell bar, landed accurately on the roof of the car, and then handed me the pole and said, "Here you go!" I stuck the axe at my waist and jumped on it, following her example.
The underground parking lot in the city center is expensive, and the people who live here are all rich people, each family has several cars, so the parking is relatively dense, we can easily cross over the car, and occasionally encounter a long distance, Nu Effort can also jump over. The zombies struggled in the water, writhing their swollen bodies soaked in the water to try to keep up, and they could walk a hundred steps with one step.
Moving forward, I soon came to a staircase that led to the top, which was different from the staircase leading to the pump room, and was very delicately made, with the doors and handrails made of glass! We jumped up the steps, pushed open the glass door and walked up.
The exit to the ground level is a glass house, and you don't have to go up to see the shadows left on the glass by the zombies as they pass by. Carefully poke your head out and look: the glass house is covered in climbing vegetation, at the intersection of two cobbled roads, surrounded by several quaint villas, like a fairy tale crystal palace. The ground has been occupied by zombies, and not far to the east is a burning bamboo forest, billowing smoke. The zombie was attracted by the fire and staggered towards it.
Many of the ghouls were killed, and some of the remaining fled to the villa for stubborn resistance. Some of them stood on the roof of the house, picked up flower pots, took off the tiles and smashed them, and some slashed and poked at the zombies outside through the windows; I didn't see the three bandits, so I guess they were also trapped in a certain building.
"It's hilarious!" Xiao Lin retracted her head and said.
I looked at the glass around me and said, "You can't stay here, it's too easy to be discovered!" Let's go find another staircase exit! β
Xiao Lin said "um", turned around and went down, and said as she walked: "I'm afraid that this will be the case with the next staircase!" "There was a zombie who climbed the steps from the water and walked towards us with great difficulty, his head was swollen like a basin, and his belly was so fat and very burdensome that he didn't know how much water he drank to get like this. I pulled out my axe and tried to kill it, but after barely two steps, its legs could no longer support the weight of its huge body, and it fell directly in front of us, spitting a mixture of dirty water and rotten blood. Xiao Lin "cut" and stepped directly over it.
We drove along the roof again. I was a little tired from morning to now, and the burns hurt again, and I gradually fell behind.
Xiao Lin reached the second staircase first, and she went up to take a look. When I came down, I just arrived. Just look at her iron-blue face, you don't need to ask to know that this place is also blocked by zombies!
"Are you tired?" Xiao Lin asked coldly.
We hadn't gone far, and the light on the other side of the stairs made us barely able to see each other's expressions. I nodded and said, "I'm a little tired!" β
"It's already up there, and now isn't the time to go up!" Xiao Lin looked around and pointed to the side: "The car over there is a bigger one, see if you can hide it inside!" β
I followed Xiao Lin's finger and saw a medium-sized van parked next to the third staircase, a lot taller than a sedan.
Walk along the roof to the van, which is not too dark as it is close to the stairs. There was a padlock locked on the door of the carriage, Xiao Lin stood on the roof of the black BMW next to him and tried to lean out to open the lock, reached out and grabbed the door handle of the carriage, and the door opened. A swollen zombie like a pig howled and approached, was kicked in the face by me, fell into the water, and didn't get up for a long time.
There are small boxes in the carriage, neatly spread all over the lower half of the carriage, the bottom layer has been soaked in water, and the top box is about a meter away from the roof. I shone a flashlight on the logo on the box, it was a toothbrush! Xiao Lin climbed into the carriage, and I climbed in later. As soon as the door closed, the latch was inserted from the inside, and the compartment became very safe.
The space was so cramped that we had to sit or lie down. Xiao Lin took the flashlight, found the walkie-talkie, and put it aside. I said, "I haven't heard them talk in a long time!" β
Xiao Lin said: "This is underground, I hope we can receive a signal, we must know the other party's actions in advance!" β
"******, this group of bandits always follows so ghostly, it's more annoying than the plaster on the buttocks. The place is safe and I guess they wouldn't have thought we were hiding in a place with so many zombies around! I said. The zombies here don't have a lot of brains after being blistered, and they didn't gather to our side, maybe they didn't have a lot of brains in the first place, and they didn't know how to get out when they entered here, so they were soaked.
I lay down slowly, trying not to touch the wound, but luckily the burn was on the front, otherwise it would be a hassle to lie down! "Are you hungry?" Xiao Lin asked. The backpacks had been thrown away, but both of them still had some water and food in their pockets to last a day or two.
I shook my head, I was chased by zombies during this time, hiding in Tibet, and my stomach has evolved to adapt to the harsh environmentββββ when I have something to eat, I can hold a whole fat pig, and when I don't have anything to eat, it's okay to eat a few less meals. I have a full stomach before I come out in the morning, and I don't feel hungry if I don't eat for a day.
"You have to turn off the flashlight, there is a gap in this carriage, and the lights are on inside and you can see it outside." Xiao Lin said. I said yes.
"I need to look at your wounds before I turn off the lights!" Xiao Lin leaned over and took a flashlight to carefully examine the burned parts of my body.
I looked up at Xiao Lin's beautiful face, and at this time she was looking up and down for the wound, carefully observing, and paying full attention; I suddenly felt very happy in my heart, if I could stay with her, I would be able to squat in this carriage for the rest of my life!
"What are you laughing at?" Xiao Lin asked in her usual cold tone. It turned out that I thought of the place of pride, and my facial expression changed.
I retracted my imagination and said with emotion: "I was thinking that fortunately it wasn't you who was burned!" "That's what I said, and since I shared the bed that night, my heart has changed dramatically! At the beginning of the catastrophe, I would protect myself first in the face of danger, and then it became the same protection for myself as Xiao Lin, and now in the face of danger, I will give priority to protecting Xiao Lin. And the more dangerous it is, the stronger this desire to protect, this is love!
