Chapter 45: Tang Yongkai

The small square before the meeting was full of broken zombie corpses, groups of soldiers used water cannons and sprayers to clean and disinfect the road, and the same was true on the steps of the venue, not only zombies, but also stumps and broken arms mixed with fragments of camouflage uniforms.

Their guns have been confiscated, and the military is very strict about the current gun management, and civilians can hold cold weapons for self-defense, but * weapons are restricted items.

showed the gray level 5 license, and the soldier in front of the door glanced at it and let Li Duo go.

Li Duo looked at the deep claw marks on the steel gate of the venue, and walked into the venue quietly.

It is not so much a venue as a vegetable market, but in fact, the original palace where elites gathered has long since become a refugee camp.

As Li Duo thought, the military attached great importance to this gathering venue of tens of thousands of elites.

On the day of the outbreak of the virus, because of the strange green rain, the original training plan was canceled, and the strength of the Mozhou Military Region was preserved.

The physical fitness of the soldiers is generally high, only one in ten people turned into zombies in the rain, and the rest were bitten and experienced a brief chaos, and under the leadership of the commander, the zombies in the barracks were cleared.

At dawn the next day, a battalion of troops was stationed at the job fair, and survivors from the neighborhood came with their families to seek refuge.

The marble floor of the venue was littered with garbage and stinking feces.

Unkempt survivors were lying on the ground or crouching against the wall, listlessly waiting for lunch.

Li Duo has met many people, and everyone's dream is to be able to arrive at the military base, thinking that it is heaven, so that they can restore the old order and live a carefree life.

But here, Li Duo sees no hope at all, only fear for the future.

The corpse of a fighter was lying quietly on the ground, and someone used a forklift to lift the huge corpse and slowly transport it to the military vehicle outside the door.

The vicinity of the corpse was covered with red blood, countless stumps and severed arms mixed with fragments of clothing were scattered there, and the thick smell of blood spread through the air, setting it off like a hell on earth.

Some of the soldiers in charge of cleaning up couldn't help but vomit, and the ragged survivors avoided it, except for some crying family members, rummaging for their loved ones among the broken limbs on the ground.

Seeing this, Li Duo's face also became extremely ugly, he now finally knew why people hated the location of the door, and the military's defense was not airtight, maybe he didn't know when, a zombie who broke through the defense line and rushed in would take his own life.

The first floor of the venue is very vast, but there are at least 5,000 people mixed here, these people without exception, are survivors with families, these small people who were in the lower echelons before the end of the world, and unfortunately were classified as "worthless" by the military.

Li Duo sighed, Tang Yongkai is a college graduate, although he doesn't dare to say that he has learned some high-end technology in school, but he is also highly educated, he should not be in the first layer.

Li Duo's heart was not very sure, he looked at the survivors around him, either migrant workers in the countryside or small traders, and there were no college students like Tang Yongkai.

——————

"It's time to eat!"

A low shout, heard in the ears of the survivors on the first floor, no less than the thunder, one by one the survivors with dull eyes, desperately rushed to the source of the sound.

At this moment, whether it was a child or an elderly man in his seventies or eighties, everyone seemed to have turned into a heroic fighter, struggling, crowding, and rushing to the porridge shack.

"Line up, get it one by one, one for each person." A cook in an apron tapped the lid of a pot with a spoon, a look of impatience on his face.

Next to him stood two soldiers with loaded guns, their guns had been safed, and as long as the swarming survivors showed the slightest hint of wanting to snatch, their bullets would not hesitate to shoot into the bodies of the mob.

Those who had survived like starving ghosts were also full of fear when they saw the two soldiers staring at them, and they formed a loose line, enduring hunger, and looked at the food in the bucket, their eyes already glowing green.

Here, all order is reformulated by the army, and as for morality, it is trampled under its feet.

The so-called gentlemen in peacetime have long since taken off their thick disguises, and no one is stupid enough to give food to the old, weak, sick and disabled, which also creates a scene, with strong men at the front, and old people and homeless children at the back.

At the beginning, there were indeed people who kidnapped those soldiers with morality, shouting about human rights while trying to rush up and grab food, but the series of gunshots calmed them down, this is no longer a peaceful era, their group of people is just ants at the bottom of the food chain.

The crowd slowly moved forward, and a few cooks were busy scooping a spoonful of thin gruel in those containers including helmets, basins, and even urinals, plus half of the steamed buns that had changed their flavors, and this was today's lunch.

"Please! Give more! I still have children at home. ”

A yellow-faced and skinny woman struggled to squeeze to the front of the line, and although the clothes on her body were dirty and the colors could not be seen clearly, the few eye-catching trademarks already marked its high price.

The muddy face, although dirty, can not hide the beautiful color, but here, even if you look as beautiful as a flower, those expressionless soldiers will not pity the jade.

"Go away, go away!"

The face of the cook with a big spoon was full of impatience, he didn't know how many times a day he encountered this kind of pleading, at first, he still couldn't bear it, but now, his heart no longer made waves.

Ignoring the woman's pleadings, the soldiers began to chase away, but before they could do anything, the hungry people behind grabbed her by the collar and threw her out of the ranks.

The woman's porcelain bowl fell to the ground, and the porridge in it was scattered on the ground, and she was helpless, kneeling on the ground and weeping bitterly.

Tang Yongkai looked at the gruel scattered on the ground, with a look of hope in his eyes, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva silently.

He carefully wrapped the scarf around his face to make himself look like someone else.

It's autumn now, the residual heat of summer hasn't dissipated yet, and Tang Yongkai's forehead is already full of sweat.

Wearing such a scarf, of course, is not because he is too cold, but to hide the fact that he has already received a portion of food, hoping to hide from the world and receive an extra portion.

In this era, strength determines everything, not only between evolutionary individuals, but also among ordinary people.

Strong men are crowded at the front of the team, and women with weak physical strength are naturally at the end, and the same is true of Tang Yongkai's girlfriend Ye Xue, as a woman, she has no ability to squeeze in by herself, so she can only rely on Tang Yongkai to take the risk and get it again.

The military's system clearly stipulates that one copy per person cannot be collected on behalf of each person. If it is found that it has been obtained twice, once it is discovered, the license will be downgraded, not to mention, and if it is not good, it will be severely beaten.

And that little bit of food is simply impossible to make an adult fed, in order to get an extra portion, rob other people's children to get food, steal supplies at night, and so on.

And Tang Yongkai is just one of the many living beings.

He hadn't eaten all day, so rare that the porridge that the mice had to wipe their tears when they saw it, and the hard steamed buns with mold, even if it was for two people, it was not enough for Ye Xue to eat, looking at Ye Xue's hungry appearance, Tang Yongkai's heart was like a knife.

He had been caught twice before, so much so that he had been downgraded from a third-level license to a fifth-level license, and he couldn't imagine what would happen if he was caught again.

As the line in front of him became shorter and shorter, Tang Yongkai's heart also tightened, and he silently lifted his collar, and the huge scarf wrapped most of his face in it.

The soldier apparently didn't recognize him, but just glanced twice at his scarf-wrapped face and scooped a spoonful of gruel from his broken bowl.

Looking at the food in his hand, Tang Yongkai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Smelling the aroma of the food, Tang Yongkai forcibly suppressed the urge to eat it in one bite, he happily took the broken bowl and ran quickly to the corner.

"Xiaoxue, I got another piece of food."

Tang Yongkai ran happily, his heart fantasized about Ye Xue's happy appearance when he saw the food, and his heart was even happier than eating it himself.

At this time, he regretted it very much in his heart, at that time, the prices were soaring, due to being blocked by Ye Xue, coupled with his illusions about those troops, he did not listen to Li Duo's advice, and now the convenience store in the venue has long been emptied, and the federal coins in his hand have become a pile of waste paper.

But fortunately, he has good courage and dares to commit crimes against the wind, and he can receive two portions of food for every meal.

But when he ran to his own position, Tang Yongkai's footsteps suddenly stopped.

Because in the place that belonged to him, there were four people standing impressively!

The originally crowded corner of the wall became wide after the arrival of these four people, and if nothing else, the three strong men behind the young man were enough to scare away most of the survivors.

Each of these three people has a pistol on his waist, and in the Noah Federation, the only mercenaries who have the right to carry guns are mercenaries with mercenary licenses.

It was clear that all three were the young man's bodyguards.

"Chen Zihao!"

Tang Yongkai almost gritted his teeth and said three words.

"Yo! Isn't this Kaizi! ”

Chen Zihao's height is 170cm, which is a head shorter than Tang Yongkai who is 180cm, but when he saw Tang Yongkai, instead of being stunned, he stepped forward with a smile and patted him on the shoulder.

Chen Zihao has a cake face, and his hair is shiny and shiny, and it can be seen that he is doing well.

"Chen Zihao, what are you doing here with me?" Tang Yongkai's cold face flashed his hand, his face was full of displeasure, this Chen Zihao, with a prominent family background, and he was a college classmate, the two of them were notoriously wrong, and now seeing him coming, Tang Yongkai naturally wouldn't think that the other party was here to send charcoal in the snow.
