The zombies on both sides of the strait are still trying to follow behind, and now we don't have to swim and can rest fully. After recovering our strength, Xiao Lin and I started paddling to get rid of the zombies faster. The zombies gradually fell behind, and the distance between them gradually increased. Looking back at their lifeless figures, even though they were far away, I still felt a chill in my back, this zombie ran fast, and it didn't feel tired, it always kept this speed. If you meet them on foot, you either kill them or get eaten, and in short, you have to fight to the death, and it is impossible to get rid of them. said to Xiao Lin: "Fortunately, there is a river here, otherwise you will definitely die!" Have you ever encountered this zombie before? ”

Xiao Lin replied: "I have encountered it, but there are not so many!" She examined the wound on her leg, but when she came out of the hospital, the scotch tape was very tightly wrapped and the wound was not wet. She took off her wet clothes and faced the wind, wearing only a vest and shorts: a Peugeot face, a plump waist, a fat ****, strong and tight thighs, a perfect combination of sexy and robust. I watched her froze until she stared at her and turned her head away. Xiao Lin snorted and said, "If you want to watch it, you can watch it, I don't know how many days I can watch it!" ”

Drifting along the water, not paying attention to where the river is taking us. I counted my belongings: three pistols full of bullets, a little food, some medicine! That's all we have. Such a little thing can't deal with zombies at all; However, he could not go back to the outpost to replenish it, so he fled for his life for several days, turning around and turning around; I can't even figure out which direction the outpost is in now, so I might as well stay in the outpost and not come out!

After Xiao Lin removed the scope on the submachine gun, he said, "There are no bullets." He threw the submachine gun into the water, and then pulled out the walkie-talkie that had been in the combat vest.

"Can it still be used?" I asked eagerly.

"I don't know, it'll be clear tomorrow at eight o'clock." Xiao Lin took the walkie-talkie apart to dry.

"Where do you say that Chen Jianxun is now?"

Xiao Lin said: "Where do I know, I'm rushing to Yanzhou with people!" ”

"Three soldiers, protecting more than 20 ordinary people, it seems that he is a good man. If only we could join them. "I thought of the bad guy again, the Zhuang Ying who was killed by me in Ganjiazhuang, that was the first person I killed, and I was more impressed. Chen Jianxun is definitely much better than him.

Xiao Lin said: "It doesn't matter if you join or not, three soldiers carry twenty-eight burdens. Still want to reach Yanzhou? Stop dreaming! We don't need to deliberately go to them, it's not bad to go directly to Yanzhou. Even if there are no troops left, there must be plenty of supplies, and if we can get there, we will be able to pick up half a life. ”

The boat sped down the river, and after a while, the zombie was finally thrown away without a trace. The river points southeast, contrary to the direction of the safe zone, and rafting east is easy, but we may not know how difficult it will be when we return!

There are barren places along the way, there are very few houses and warehouses, and there are a lot of ordinary zombies on the shore, and we are afraid that those running zombies will catch up, so we don't go ashore and continue to go downstream.

In the afternoon, the river we were in joined a larger river. The river is wider, hundreds of meters; Zombies have absolutely no ability to get close, and we are sure to be safe staying on the ship. The number of houses on both sides of the bank began to increase, and a regular riverside road appeared, with neat sycamores planted on both sides of the road, and a large area of green belt; Apparently about to enter the bustling land; Of course, there are a lot more zombies.

There are many high-rise buildings faintly visible in front, Xiao Lin raised the scope and looked at it and said, "There is a city ahead, we can't go forward!" There are so many zombies there that every spit can drown us. When I heard the word "city", my heart moved: I grew up in the city, and this time I stayed in the countryside for nearly two months, and suddenly I saw a high-rise building, and I actually felt a little home. It's no wonder that after that ****-scale real estate movement, all cities in China are much the same!

I really don't want to go ashore, after all, the ship is safe and dangerous on the shore! So I said, "You don't have to go ashore, just find a way to stop the boat." The two began to figure out how to stop the boat, but there was really nothing to borrow on board. Just when there was nothing to do, there was an antique cruise ship in the middle of the river in front of you! Surprised, he picked up the broken oar and paddled it that way.

Soon came to the front, this is a painting boat-style pleasure boat, more than 20 meters long, six or seven meters wide; The superstructure is a two-storey antique design, like an ancient gallery, elegant and elegant, held in place by heavy anchor chains, and the hull reads ×× Water Park Sightseeing Boat.

"Anyone?" I pulled out my pistol and asked aloud, the boat was parked in the middle of the river, so naturally someone should have driven over. But after a long time, no one appeared. There were cables on the big boat, so I took them and tied them down and started boarding. The boat was large, but not tall, and it stepped onto the deck in one step, and then added Xiao Lin again.

The first thing you do when you get on board is to check for zombies and, of course, look for supplies. Walk into the cabin: It turns out that this ship is also a restaurant, with twelve sets of antique tables and chairs on both sides, and the aisle in the middle. Except for the stern, the other three directions are full of large glass windows, which have a wide view of the river.

Continuing through the aisle, the stern of the ship was the galley and wheelhouse, and nothing was found; Finally, upstairs are two small single rooms and a large open-air observation deck; Push open the first single room, and there is nothing; Pushing the second one away, there was a "buzz" sound, and countless flies flew up at the same time———— found the owner of the ship: hanging in the middle of the single room, hanged to death, and was already badly rotten.

Looking at this corpse, I felt a sense of disappointment, there might have been some food on board, and if someone had stayed here, it would have been difficult to find food. With a glimmer of hope, I searched through them one by one, and sure enough, I found nothing.

It was disgusting to have a corpse crawling with flies on the boat, so I asked Xiao Lin to rest on the first floor, found a large plastic sheet to wrap the body in it, then cut the hanging rope and threw the body into the river. A few more buckets of water were fetched and the cabin was washed a few times before it was better. Back on the first floor, Xiao Lin sat there and asked, "Do you know how to fish?" ”

The fishing gear here is very complete, the fishing rods are high-end goods, and the fish food is imported from Japan; I lined up a dozen poles on the boat, and soon the fish were hooked. The boat has all the kitchen utensils, but the ingredients are scarce, so they can only be dried in river water, but it is a rare delicacy for two people who have not eaten a full meal in seven or eight days.

Regardless of the size of the fish, after catching it, it was handed to Xiao Lin in the kitchen through the window, washed and peeled, and thrown directly into the pot. When fishing, pay attention to which ones are still half-raw and which ones have been cooked, a bit like eating hot pot. I looked at Xiao Lin's gobbling up and couldn't help but say, "Your injuries are not healed, is it okay to eat so many hair?" Xiao Lin said: "Shut up, I'd rather die than starve." ”

By the time we had eaten, it was already getting dark. This was the only full meal I had since I entered the hospital, and after eating, I felt that my body was much heavier. Back in the cabin, the two of them lay directly on the ground, the floor was solid wood, much cleaner than ours.

After resting for a while, Xiao Lin said, "Shi Yan! ”

I said "um". Xiao Lin said: "We are here for a while, and I want to heal from the injury. ”

I was a little disappointed in my heart, since I got the news of Chen Jianxun, I really want to catch up with the big team of 31 people, if I stay here, there will definitely be no hope. However, we drifted all day today, and Chen Jianxun walked in the opposite direction for another whole day, and the hope of this back and forth was very slim. So he said to Xiao Lin: "Of course, it is very safe here, let's collect supplies here and leave when we are fully prepared." ”

After a tired day, and just after eating, my eyelids became heavier, and when I was about to fall asleep, Xiao Lin suddenly said: "Have you counted how many times you saved me along the way?" ”

I opened my eyes and said, "I haven't counted it, why do you count it, we are grasshoppers on a rope, didn't you save me too?" ”

Xiao Lin said: "You saved me first, more times than me, and carried me so far!" As much as I hate to admit it, the truth is: I owe you! So...... Now I want to repay you well......"

"Repay me?" I was immediately interested, turned over and asked, "Now?" How to repay? ”

Xiao Lin said: "I have always wanted to teach you some skills, but I can't find a safe place, it is very safe in the hospital, but there is no food, and I can't practice a large amount of exercise." It's just right here: it's safe and well-fed! Start with 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and 100 frog jumps. Tell me when you're done, and I'll teach you something else. ”

I was dumbfounded: "Do it now?" ”

"Of course you do it now, do you still want to owe?"

"No," I said, "I've been tossing and turning all day today, and I'm almost exhausted, so can I start tomorrow?" ”

"Okay!" Xiao Lin sat up and stretched, and said, "Then start tomorrow." ”

I rolled over and was about to go to bed, when suddenly I was hit with a heavy belt; Jumped up with a "whoosh". Xiao Lin held the belt in her hand and beat and scolded: "What is not productive, the old lady is kind enough to teach you in order to save your life." Still pushing, do you think I want to teach you so much? How many people want me to teach, I'm too lazy to teach! Want to wait for tomorrow? You go and ask those zombies if they agree? Give me a start, don't sleep until you finish it! ”

I jumped up and pounced on Xiao Lin, but she twisted and pressed down, slamming my face on the floor. She asked, "Do you do it?" ”

I shouted, "It's hurting me, let go!" ”

Xiao Lin not only did not let go, but worked harder, and continued to ask, "Do you do it?" ”

My arm hurt so hard that I had to shout, "I'll do it, I'll do it......"

Xiao Lin let go of his hand and said, "You give me a good memory———— putting everything off until tomorrow is the way of a loser." I lay on the ground and did push-ups, scolding in my heart: If I practice well, the first thing I will do is to beat this irascible little **** hard.

These exercises seem easy, but it's hard to do the standard, especially when you're exhausted; Xiao Lin's requirements are very strict: the push-up body should be flat up and down, the face should touch the ground, and the movements should not be deformed; When doing sit-ups, put your head forward as much as possible; The frog jumper should be carried behind his back; Squat down, stand up, stand up, stand up straight; If she is a little sloppy, she will pull a belt; By the time I had done all four, I was so tired that I was slumped on the floor.

In the days that followed, we went out in the morning to collect supplies and came back in the afternoon to practice. This is the outskirts of the city, there are farmlands and factories, grass houses and mud houses and villas. Xiao Lin was keeping watch on the boat, and I went to the houses on the shore to look for something.

Because there are more zombies, we can only look for places with fewer zombies to go ashore, and we dare not go too far from the river. In this way, the things found are very limited, and it is just enough for two people. When the fish ran out, they dug for earthworms on the shore.

Back on the boat, Xiao Lin would torture me over and over again: fighting, swimming, sun exposure, pulling the horizontal bar on the beam, far more harsh than my mother had urged me to study for my self-study exams before she died. In Xiao Lin's words: "I want to squeeze all the potential out of you." ”

Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, he had been on the ship for more than ten days. In July, the heat was unbearable, but luckily we lived on the boat and were able to swim in the river at any time. These days, I have also tried to use the walkie-talkie to contact Chen Jianxun or someone else, but I don't know if it was because it was too far away or because of the flood, there was only a rustling sound on the walkie-talkie, and there was no response.

Xiao Lin was physically strong, and her leg injury healed quickly, and she often went with me to look for supplies. With Xiao Lin by my side, I dared to move farther away from the shore and found more things: clothes, drinks, fuel, mosquito nets, mats...... Life on board gradually began to become more comfortable.

After being together for a long time, I gradually discovered some characteristics of Xiao Lin: she likes to eat desserts, especially for chocolate, she has almost no defense, and every time she finds it, she will be wiped out by her before she reaches the river. There is also the level of cooking and proficiency in the use of weapons is inversely proportional, and the cooked meals are either half-lived or burnt; I just enjoy it, and I care about it very much, and every time I pester me to ask if it's delicious. Naturally, I didn't dare to tell the truth, because it hurt my stomach, and I had to put extremely unpalatable things into it every day.

We also found several cars, parked at different locations on both sides of the river, so that we could escape for our lives at any time. The small wrecked wooden boat has broken down, and we found a couple more pedal boats in the downstream water park, as well as a small speedboat. Even if the zombies block the riverbank, we can escape by boat.

There are only two problems left, food and weapons: we have found a lot of food, but the weather is hot, and it is easy to store and can take away; Weapons are naturally more difficult, and in the civilian population, it is more difficult to find a gun than to kill a person. Judging from the experience of the past days, it is simply suicidal to rush on the road with 60 rounds of ammunition close to three pistols.

Xiao Lin is more strict with my training, and the standard is constantly improving, take push-ups as an example: at the beginning, I was only required to do 100; Later, I began to put my feet up, and the posture of my feet was naturally more laborious; Later, it was required to carry weights; It is also required to clap the palm in the air once after a quick push of the palm; Finally, there are 100 push-ups alone, but they must be done in less than a minute. The muscles began to grow wildly, and under this kind of high-intensity training, it was difficult not to be strong.

On this day, we were searching for a villa on the side of the road, and there were a lot of zombies around, so we couldn't stay for a long time. Had a good harvest today, finding a few cartons of milk, a few boxes of premium biscuits, and a few bottles of wine. As usual, Xiao Lin took cover, and I carried the big stack of things to the Toyota sedan outside the door.

As soon as it was installed, I suddenly heard a loud rock music coming from the highway, mixed with heart-rending screams. Xiao Lin and I hurriedly looked over to the road, trying to figure out what was going on.

An open-top sports car sped past us, with several people on board, standing or sitting, as if they had guns in their hands, cheering and screaming loudly to rock music, as if they were going to a party. There seemed to be a man dragging behind the car, and it was the man who made the scream. By the time we got to the road, the car was gone, leaving a trail of blood on the road that ran parallel to the double yellow line.

Are they dragging zombies to play? No, there was blood on the road, not rotten blood from zombies, and I heard screams just now, apparently a living person dragging behind the car. What kind of person is in a sports car, how can he do such a cruel thing!

The zombies smelled blood and began to converge on the road. didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly fled to the car with Xiao Lin and started the car. The screams kept echoing in my ears, and my heart trembled, Xiao Lin saw my puzzled and frightened expression and said, "They are robbers, and now the world is like this." ”

, you don't have to kill people to rob! Even if you want to kill, you can't use such a cruel method. Thinking of this, I couldn't bear it, and said to Xiao Lin: "Shall we go along and have a look and save that person?" ”

Xiao Lin said: "You are crazy, there are five gangsters in the car, all with Type 56 assault rifles, and they can beat us into a sieve with a single strafing shot." ”

I was stunned: In my heart, Xiao Lin has always been omnipotent, but I didn't expect her to do something she couldn't do. I couldn't bear it in my heart, and said, "Aren't you very well trained in military affairs?" Can't think of a way? ”

Xiao Lin said: "It is because of my training that I know that I can't take this risk, as long as the other party has a gun in his hand, even if he is a three-year-old child, he can't be careless." Do you know how many old birds have died at the hands of fledgling recruits. Bullets are equal to everyone, and they don't go around you just because you're trained. If you really pity that man, pray for his early death, and besides, he is now eighty percent dead. ”

The car drove to the road, and the way back was the direction from which the sports car was going, and a large number of zombies had gathered on the road, some licking the blood, and some following the blood line. Looking ahead, more zombies were following along the bloodline on the road.

Xiao Lin said angrily: "These bastards have blocked our way back." "I don't know if she's scolding the looters or the zombies.

I continued to persuade: "Since the road over there has been blocked, let's go up and see, if we can save it, we will save it, and if we can't save it, we will leave." ”

"You're a mother-in-law and mother-in-law, and you don't have much ability to be a hero." Xiao Lin sighed, pulled out her pistol and said, "That's all it can be." Tricks put the highlights, watch out for them ambushing us on the side of the road. ”
