048
After another day of tossing, everyone was exhausted, especially after a short rest, the tiredness doubled. In addition to exhaustion, there is also pain! When the car overturned just now, I don't know how many times it was hit, but it was not seriously injured, a real miracle! I don't know if it's luck or because the seats on the Mercedes are softer and more upscale.
After eating, Deng Xiao took out the notebook from his arms and crossed out several names on it with a pen. None of us spoke, knowing that meant that his companions in the community were dead.
"Why do you want to save people so much?" I looked at his solemn appearance and couldn't help but ask. Someone is trapped by zombies, of course I won't die without help, but I will never spend time and time writing down people's names in a diary. It's over if you try to save it, the rest is God's say, and whether you remember people's names or not is only a secondary issue.
Deng Xiao looked gloomy, he closed the notebook, and said to me: "This makes me feel that I am still alive." With the notebook down, he took out his laptop from his bag and began to upload information.
"Any news on this?" I asked.
Deng Xiao shook his head: "No, it's still the content in the morning." ”
"What are you writing about?"
"Those clever zombies I just met! I'm going to send this out there so that others are on guard! The signal is too bad, and you have to wait for it to be transmitted after writing, and it is not certain when it will be sent! ”
I shook my head and sighed, "It doesn't matter if you are prepared or not, it is the key whether you have the ability to be prepared!" ”
Meng Xiang and Xia Meng'er hadn't looked at the communication computer yet, so they gathered around to take a look. I also wanted to go up and have a look, but when I saw that the three of them were leaning together and it was a little difficult to squeeze in, I dispelled my thoughts and sat down with Xiao Lin to continue eating.
The sun has set, and the darkness is gradually swallowing us. Xiao Lin looked at the elated Meng Xiang and Xia Meng'er and said to me, "They still have to watch for a while!" You come with me, and we'll spy on it. ”
I'm reluctant: it's enough to spy on someone, so why pull me! Especially when I'm very tired! But I still stood up and followed Xiao Lin to the room facing the street.
Lift the curtain in a corner: the situation is still the same outside, zombies walking mindlessly in the alley, making a messy footstep. The light was dim, and only black shadows could be seen, among which there was a half-naked female zombie in a white shirt who was very conspicuous.
"Tired, aren't you?" Xiao Lin asked.
I let out a weak "um".
"I called you here to talk to you." Xiao Lin said. She leaned against the wall beside me, her arms folded, and she spoke in a very low voice, neither wanting Meng Xiang and them to hear, but also preventing the zombies below from hearing it.
"What are you talking about?" When I spoke, my eyes didn't take off the female zombie below, it didn't shake when it walked, it seemed that the coordination was not bad, it should be a speed zombie. The clothes are very torn, but they look like fashionable and sexy beggars' outfits. The light was dim, and I couldn't see the decay on its body, so I didn't feel sick. Judging from the silhouette, it is simply a trendy girl who just passed by.
"Yesterday, we met Xia Meng'er and Meng Xiang, and today we met Deng Xiao. What is your impression of them? ”
"It's all good, Meng Xiang is willing to take the initiative to take the initiative; Deng Xiao ******** save people, but his temper is a little anxious; Xia Meng'er is innocent and not very capable, so it's okay to take care of it! There is a lot of strength in numbers, and with them joining, it's easier for us to deal with zombies! ”
"Have you ever thought about watching out for them?"
I was stunned, turned my gaze to Xiao Lin, and subconsciously repeated: "Beware of them? ”
"Beware of them getting their hands on you behind your back."
I was a little unconvinced: "Is it possible?" ”
Xiao Lin said: "There is an old saying that 'it is difficult to draw the skin and bones of a tiger, and it is difficult to know the face but not the heart'. When life is threatened, people can become cruel! ”
"But they all seem to be very good, Deng Xiao saved my life today."
Xiao Lin looked up at the ceiling, as if she remembered something sad. So I asked, "What happened to you?" ”
"That was before I met you! What to mention it for! Just remember to keep an eye on it whenever you want, okay? ”
"Okay, I will." I nodded, and saw the female zombie again. At some point, it began to walk back, and the front could be seen: half-length hair was draped down, much like Sadako.
"I want to confess one thing, and I will panic if I don't say it," Xiao Lin said suddenly.
"What's the matter?" I asked nonchalantly.
"I wanted to kill you."
I was stunned: "When?" ”
"A month ago, when we escaped from the courthouse," Xiao Lin said, "I was injured in the leg, and after jumping out of the wall, I told you to let you go by yourself, and I covered you for a while, do you remember?" ”
"Of course I remember, I carried you later!"
"Actually, the real thought in my heart is that if you leave me, I will shoot you to death with one shot, and use the zombies to eat your time to escape."
I think back to the scene at that time, and I feel a chill on my back: at that time, I really had the idea of leaving, but fortunately I didn't, if I had been more selfish at that time, I would have died with no place to bury! Life and death were in the thought of the time.
Xiao Lin continued: "It's scary to think about it now, if I really beat you to death, I wouldn't be able to live until now!" To kill you is to kill myself. ”
"Would you do it again if that happened again?"
"You asked me that question yesterday!" Xiao Lin said: "I think about a lot of things! ”
"What's the matter?"
"Who am I? My past! What am I doing here? What is most important to me? Some things haven't been thought out yet, some things are already clear! ”
"What's clear?"
"Like, you're my friend! I can't live without friends! So, in the future, I won't kill you in this situation! After Xiao Lin finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at me. Her eyes lit up like two stars in the night.
Apparently Xiao Lin was saying that she couldn't lose me! I didn't know what to say for a while, but I felt that something seemed to be bursting out in my heart.
"What's next for you?" Xiao Lin asked.
I replied: "It's very simple: rush out of the city, return to the outpost, take all your weapons, and go to Lanzhou!" ”
"Yes! It's so easy to say! But to do it...... Alas! Xiao Lin sighed softly: "The most critical issue now is ammunition, how much do you still have?" ”
I had already counted: "There are still two magazines for the rifle and fifty rounds for the pistol." ”
"I'm pretty much the same, the ammunition is getting less and less, and this bullet is not enough to rush out of the city. Moreover, this gun does not come with a silencer, and killing one will attract a crowd! After Xiao Lin finished speaking, he took out the vehicle-mounted satellite locator from his combat vest: "This is the outpost, and it is 47 kilometers away along the ××× National Highway." In case we get separated, we will meet at the outpost, shall we? The first to arrive will be waiting there! If you have to leave, leave a note on the wall telling them where you're going. ”
I laughed and said, "You're so careful, okay!" That's it! ”
As she spoke, the half-naked female zombie passed by below again. I was a little surprised: how did it turn back again? Zombies have little intelligence, and either stay still or move in one direction; Unless you find food or encounter an obstacle, you rarely turn around. Why didn't this zombie go all the way down the alley? Suddenly I felt very uneasy: did it know that we were hiding here, pretending to be going around? Keep a careful eye on its movements.
The female zombie staggered as she approached the bend in the alley, stopped, turned and walked back! The two zombies behind him also began to turn around. I realized that it wasn't just the female zombie, all the zombies were walking back and forth in this alley, and didn't go anywhere else.
"What are you looking at?" Xiao Lin saw that I had been staring down, so she also followed my gaze and found the person I was staring at, "Hey! There was a thud on the back of my head. I almost screamed in pain, and said angrily, "Why did you hit me? ”
"Who told you to look at that mess!" Xiao Lin said angrily.
I explained, "I'm not looking at that thing, I just keep feeling bad!" ”
"What do you remember?" Xiao Lin looked at me with a solemn expression and hurriedly asked.
"When we were hiding in the courtroom, a large number of zombies were passing by on the road ahead. But a handful of zombies stopped at the door. I also asked you why, and you said, 'Probably a sixth sense.' Isn't that weird? At that time, when it was so far away, there would be zombies who felt our presence, why can't they feel it now? ”
Xiao Lin said, "What do you mean ......?"
I gritted my teeth and said, "They know we're hiding here, they're just pretending not to!" ”
