Chapter 44: Shortcuts to Dirt Roads

Ren Xinyun's leg injury has suppurated, it is not serious, it is serious, it is serious, it is serious, as long as there is medicine, it can still be saved. Zhou Yuanqiang looked at it a few more times, sighed, and didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only close his eyes, lean on the passenger seat, and listen to the sound of the engine.

After the convoy left the settlement more than 20 kilometers west, the number of zombies began to gradually increase, and zombies could be seen on the road from time to time on the originally empty road. In this area, the road begins to become difficult to walk, and from time to time you can see wreckage-like cars, abandoned on the road. The mutilated corpses can still be seen through the car slag heap. There were even some that were stuck in the car, and the exposed half was ripped off alive by the zombies and swallowed alive.

The mutilated corpses were highly eroded, and some of them had become dry and black under the scorching sun, and they were known to be dead half a month ago.

You don't have to guess, just look at the situation, you know that it is the first batch of caravans to go to the Grand Canyon settlement, and under the attack of zombies, they left behind the masterpieces. It's not just that, on both sides of the road, one piece looks like a dried radish, and the corpses of the zombies are also poured into a large piece, most of them have their heads shattered, and a small part has been torn apart in front of large-caliber weapons. The high temperature also turned the corpses of these zombies into a skeleton with hair stems, which was terrifying at a glance.

No one expected that just more than 20 kilometers away from the settlement, they would see this hellish picture, and it could be seen that this trip to business was not an easy thing.

The original relaxed mentality of the entire team was quickly broken, and everyone became serious, as old soldiers, they have been tested by zombies, and they still know how to distinguish the weight.

Qiu Guorui picked up the walkie-talkie and called: "This is the command car Qiu Guorui, all units pay attention, all units pay attention, enter the alert state, pay attention to the situation on both sides of the highway at any time, find abnormalities, report to me immediately, over." He put down the walkie-talkie, held the binoculars again, looked around, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that no large-scale zombie herd had been found.

After advancing a few kilometers again, the convoy was attacked by scattered zombies from time to time, fortunately, the home-made muffler was very cheap, and there were not a few people in the convoy who were prepared, and it did not alarm other zombie groups, just relying on these guns with mufflers, these scattered zombies were attacked.

Ren Xinyun endured the sharp pain in her thighs, wrinkled her brows and poked her head out of the window, trying to observe the surrounding environment, and soon she pointed ahead and said: "The shortcut dirt road is about two kilometers ahead, it is not connected to the road, we must advance a little way in the mud and sand to see it." ”

Hearing this, even Zhang Yixuan stared at Ren Xinyun, and a suspicious look appeared on his face.

"The reason why not many people know about this shortcut dirt road is because it is not connected to the road, and people who are not familiar with it would not think that after crossing this section of sand, there will be a world overturned." Ren Xinyun was very calm, and his two big eyes blinked, "If you follow the highway again, you will enter a densely populated place, and the number of zombies will be huge." ”

"In order to increase a tourist line, the tourism company specially let people build it, along this dirt road, not only can you enjoy the long yellow sand, but also can see the endless gravel land, as well as clumps of green grass, and weathered stone forest. I also led the team on this tour route a few times before I learned about this path. In fact, it is not a road, many places are still open on the yellow sand, but there are signs along the way, so that people will not go the wrong way. ”

Zhou Yuanqiang hesitated for a moment, and finally said to Zhang Yixuan: "Do as she says, and lead the team down the road in a while." ”

Before the decision was made, Qiu Guorui's walkie-talkie, there was a call: "Command car, command car, this is the rear of the convoy, there is a convoy in the rear, the number is unknown, the number is unknown." ”

Qiu Guorui glanced at Zhou Yuanqiang and said, "The command vehicle has received it, the command vehicle has received it, and it is temporarily on alert and waiting for instructions." He thought for a moment and said, "Boss, it should be the caravan of the third wave, and it should be the same as us, it should also go to the Grand Canyon settlement, and it shouldn't be a road robbery." ”

The speed of the convoy behind was very fast, fortunately, the road was enough for four cars to drive side by side, and in the sound of horns, they easily overtook Zhou Yuanqiang's convoy, and in the sound of whistling car engines, they slowly threw Zhou Yuanqiang's convoy away, raising mud and smoke in the sky.

Qiu Guorui had been staring at the convoy all the time, and when the other party left, he said: "Forty-seven cars, the number should be about three hundred, they belong to Tian Ying's team, they are very strong in combat, they are equipped in the settlement, they are ranked very high, and they should be within the top ten." Judging by the way they look, there should be no one to hire them, but their own team acting alone. ”

"It seems that there are many people who are not willing to be lonely!" Zhou Yuanqiang sighed, the weak eat the strong, sail against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat, that's the truth.

In order to prevent Tian Ying's people from discovering it, Qiu Guorui let the convoy drive slowly, and finally confirmed that the other party's convoy was out of sight, which was to let the convoy follow the pickup, get off the road, and move forward in the mud and sand. Fortunately, the sand here, with dots of grass and grass, is not too difficult to drive. After leaving the road, about half an hour or so, I really saw a dirt road paved with gravel, but the gap between the gravel was overgrown with grass, and it had been abandoned for a long time.

"I didn't lie to you, did I?" Ren Xinyun laughed happily, the tense atmosphere just now was somewhat relieved after the appearance of the dirt road.

The dirt road was simply repaired, and in many places there was a lot of rubble, and cars drove on it, and the speed was very slow. But the good thing is that it's far away from the villages and towns, and there isn't even a single zombie on the way. Every kilometre of dirt road, there will be a sign that will lead to a section of the road.

Can be the tourism company invested a huge amount of money to build dirt roads, for tourist attractions, of course, is beautiful, never felt the desert sand, nor did he feel the Gobi Desert Zhou Yuanqiang, see the scene along the way, can't help but see the idiot, a man's pride and ambition from the chest, in the desert atmosphere, the previous caution and vigilance, suddenly let Zhou Yuanqiang understand, men should have the spirit of men, sneaky, can never become the climate.

Handing a two-finger-thick potato cake in the bag to Ren Xinyun, Zhou Yuanqiang thought of the other party's despair just now, smiled faintly, and said, "I know you must be hungry, eat something." There is no hurdle in life that cannot be overcome, hope is always greater than despair, maybe you endure for a while, hope will suddenly come to you. ”

Ren Xinyun took the potato cake and listened to what Zhou Yuanqiang said blankly, the sense of confusion made her not know what Zhou Yuanqiang was referring to, the end of her life?

(Oh my God, the legendary point ratio push is 21:1, I'm very depressed, and there are still a few hundred votes to 10,000 recommendations, everyone votes a few more votes!) )
