Chapter Fifty-Eight: Death and Resurrection
"What! The passage on the first floor is blocked, Fang Jian, are you sure? Meng Xiyao listened to Fang Jian's words, and immediately turned to look at Fang Jian in surprise and asked.
"Sure, of course sure, they're still blocking! As if we won't stop until it's completely sealed, we really can't go back to the first floor now! Fang Jian was also sweating profusely, and nodded frequently.
"What about the elevator? Did you see the elevator? Maybe they want us to pull back from the elevator? Meng Xiyao asked with a fluke mentality.
"Oh, yes, elevator, elevator, I'm going to see it!" Hearing Meng Xiyao say this, Fang Jian seemed to have renewed hope, turned around and ran out again.
Yang Ming looked at Fang Jian's panicked figure and Meng Xiyao, who was obviously a little nervous at the moment, shook his head with a wry smile, and said in his heart: "No matter how smart she is, she is still a little girl, and she is still a little too naïve!" ”
"What's the matter, little brother, what's wrong?" At this time, the middle-aged special operations captain on the side also saw the nervous expressions and conversations of Fang Jian and Meng Xiyao, although he couldn't understand it, he also felt that something seemed to be happening, so he asked.
"Oh! My people said that the passage connecting the first floor and the second floor was blocked by the people below, and we can't go back to the first floor now. Yang Ming didn't hide it, and replied lightly.
"What! No way, the scar is still down there! He would not betray the special operators, and the situation on the second floor was not out of control, he would not be so short-sighted! The middle-aged squad leader listened to Yang Ming's words and immediately denied it.
"I don't believe you can let your people go and see it, but I don't think my people will lie!" Yang Ming still said with an indifferent look.
From the very beginning of hearing the news, Yang Ming was not particularly surprised, because human nature is selfish, especially when there are many people, once someone instigates it, then the public will blindly obey and then make some stupid decisions.
And this time the blocking of the passage on the first and second floors is also a typical example!
In the case that things on the second floor did not deteriorate, the people on the first floor blocked the passage connecting the first and second floors, in fact, they were committing suicide, they not only abandoned the people on the second floor, but also gave up the possibility of retreat and escape on the second floor, and could only trap themselves in the space on the first floor surrounded by zombies until all resources were exhausted.
And the direct beneficiaries of this matter are probably Hu Er and Yingyue, so they should also be the masterminds who instigated the people below to block the channel.
Because only they will complete the task and leave this space when the time is up, and the others will just blindly follow, because in the end they will still be trapped here.
However, in Yang Ming's opinion, it is unknown whether the means used by Hu Er and Yingyue this time are auspicious or vicious!
"No, no...... No, the elevator is also stopped! At this time, Fang Jian ran back again, but this time he was even more desperate than the last time.
"It's impossible to drive, since the other party has made so much effort to block the connection between the first and second floors, how can the elevator still be open, don't toss around, hurry up and take a break!" Yang Ming looked at Fang Jian anxiously like an ant on a hot pot, looking like the end of the world was coming, Yang Ming really couldn't look at it, so he interjected.
"Rest! What are you resting for? Yang Ming will have more and more zombies in a while, our manpower can't seal so many windows at all, and we can't resist them, soon we will be surrounded by zombies, and then we will be finished, why aren't you in a hurry? Fang Jian saw that Yang Ming was still so unhurried, and he didn't have a sense of crisis at all, so he immediately shouted loudly!
"Yo, I didn't expect it! Fang Jian, you also have such a big anger!
Calm down! It's not time to despair yet, and if you continue to waste your energy now, then when it's time to run for your life, you may really not be able to keep up! Yang Ming glanced at Fang Jian and teased.
"What! Yang Ming, do you already have an idea? When Fang Jian heard Yang Ming say this, he was immediately surprised, he thought that Yang Ming had already thought of a plan to escape!
"Of course...... Without! I'm not a god, it happened so suddenly, how could I have an idea!
But it's useless to yell like you now, it's better to rest and recover your strength before the zombies attack! Yang Ming shrugged his shoulders and said without any nervousness.
"Alas! I thought you had an idea! It turns out that there is no good way! Yang Ming's answer made Fang Jian very disappointed, but at this time, Meng Xiyao on the side looked at Yang Ming, and then a faint smile appeared on his face, and the previous tension disappeared.
Just as Yang Ming and the others were talking, the person sent out by the middle-aged squad leader also came back, and he also said something in the middle-aged man's ear with a gloomy face.
"MD, how can this be, is Scar crazy?" After listening to the report of his subordinates, the middle-aged man couldn't help but curse, obviously he already knew the fact that the first and second floors were sealed.
After venting the emotions in his heart, the middle-aged squad leader quickly sorted out his mood, came to Yang Ming's side, and said calmly: "Little brother, you can't go back below, do you have any plans next?"
I think we have a small number of people now, and we should work together, and it is better not to spread the firepower any longer, otherwise it will be difficult for us to survive.
If you have any plans, we can discuss it together, what do you think? ”
Yang Ming admired this middle-aged man a little at the moment, although things came so suddenly, he was still able to calm down quickly, and then face it together with the people around him, this calmness is really not something ordinary people can have!
"Oh! Listen to what you mean, captain, you seem to have an idea now? Yang Ming looked at the middle-aged man and asked with a smile.
"I can't talk about the idea, I just can barely survive!
We're on the second floor now, but the zombies are growing all the time, and it's impossible for us to seal the windows with our manpower, so sooner or later the second floor will fall.
In this case, we might as well go to the third floor, and then seal the entrance to the third floor as well, so that it will take a long time for the zombies to be superimposed on the third floor, plus the second floor will divert some zombies, so it can buy us some time. "It's all this time, and the middle-aged squad leader has nothing to reserve, so he immediately told his plan.
"Great idea! That's a good idea! That way we won't have to face so many zombies! As soon as the middle-aged squad leader finished speaking, Fang Jian said in surprise, and at this time, Kelly and the people in the clubhouse who came up with him also nodded frequently.
Just when Fang Jian came back to report for the first time, Kai Li and the others knew that something was wrong, and Meng Xiyao also told them what happened, so now several people are also a little masterless, and when they heard the middle-aged man's idea at this time, they immediately agreed.
Yang Ming glanced back at them, seeing that they all agreed with the idea, but Yang Ming smiled noncommittally, but Meng Xiyao, who had calmed down at this time, did not speak.
"Mengxi Yao, what about you? What do you think of this idea? Yang Ming asked.
"Not well, it's an idea that at best we'll let us die slowly, but in the end, we're going to die.
The first floor can be trapped because they have water and food, and the third floor has nothing, if we are also trapped, we will just wait for death! Meng Xiyao shook her head and said mercilessly.
"Uh~~! This little girl, we don't have any other way now?
If we don't go to the third floor, we'll have to fight the zombies here, won't we die faster? "The middle-aged man is also an experienced captain of the special combat team, and it is still a little embarrassing to be criticized by a little girl in front of him for how useless his judgment is, but fortunately, he is old and doesn't care too much about anything, so he just opened his mouth to explain.
"Yes! There's no better way now, so why don't you just listen to this special operations team leader? At this time, the other people who followed also chimed in.
"I'd rather be happy than be slowly consumed to death, and maybe we still have a way to live!
The second floor isn't too high from the ground right now, so it would be a bit of a hassle to jump from the third floor, and as long as we can find a way to temporarily empty the surrounding zombies, then we'll have a chance to rush out!
On the east side is the depot of the night club, where there are cars, we can open a way through the back door to escape here, especially if there are zombies on the first floor, our chances of escape will be much higher. Meng Xiyao also ignored the reactions of the others around her and continued.
"What! Crazy, right? Isn't jumping from here looking for death? We're not going to do it, we're going up to the third floor, we're not going crazy with you! At this time, everyone else who followed was opposed.
"Boy, what do you think, you're just like this little girl, you're going to rush out of here?" At this time, the middle-aged man looked at Meng Xiyao, and then turned to Yang Ming and asked.
"Well, that's right! Xi Yao has the same idea as me, if you want to live, you can only put it to death and live later! Yang Ming nodded.
"Is it necessary to die and be reborn? Young people are really courageous! The middle-aged man muttered in his mouth, and then praised it.
"Captain, you're polite, the decision on this matter is not easy for anyone, so let's discuss it too! It's okay to rush out with us or not, you can decide for yourself! Yang Ming also knew that Meng Xiyao and his ideas were too crazy, so he didn't forcibly explain to the people around him, just went with the flow.
"Let's not go crazy with you! Let's go up to the third floor first! The people who came up in the night club chose a more secure way this time, and walked towards the third floor one after another, leaving only Kai Li, Meng Xiyao and Fang Jian around Yang Ming.
"Yang Ming, are we really going to jump from here? Are there all zombies down there? Fang Jian saw Yang Ming walking to the side with them, and immediately grabbed Yang Ming and asked.
"Well, that's right, we have to rush out of here, otherwise, the third floor won't last a few days, but if you don't want to jump, I won't force you, you can also go up to the third floor with them." Yang Ming nodded, then looked at Fang Jian with a smile.
"Uh~~! Forget it, I'll follow you! Fang Jian hurriedly replied.
Although Fang Jian was timid, he could still see things clearly, and it would be a dead end for him to follow those people up to the third floor, so it was better to follow Yang Ming and them safely, just jump, anyway, it was a matter of closing his eyes.
"Yang Ming, are you sure?" At this time, Meng Xiyao suddenly said on the side.
"Hey, Miss, this seems to be your idea! Sure, you ask? Yang Ming said with a look of grievance.
"Alright, don't load it for me here, that backpack of yours should have explosives and grenades from the arsenal, right? If it weren't for those things, would you agree with my plan so calmly? Meng Xiyao also ignored Yang Ming, who pretended to be innocent, and immediately debunked him.
"Yo! The little girl's eyes are very good! Yes, I do have grenades and explosives in my backpack, I can't say, but as long as we stay up until dawn, at least we can have a chance to fight! Yang Ming first praised Meng Xiyao exaggeratedly, and then said.
And at this time, the middle-aged special forces team leader and his squad members also seemed to have made a choice, and the middle-aged man walked towards Yang Ming again.
