After returning from Brother Hei, Zhang Qiru didn't go out for a whole day, but stayed in the car to study how to make the current environment safer. While they may only be here temporarily, that doesn't mean they don't need to think about safety - safety can't be ignored at any time, especially in the south, where zombies and evolved animals coexist, and the risk factor is higher, so it's necessary to take safety measures.

"What do you think?" Zhao Yun saw that Zhang Qiru had not spoken and asked.

"I was thinking that we might have stayed in this place a little longer. After all, when we come to the south for the first time, we need to have a more systematic understanding of the situation here, and we also need a lot of survival experience. Zhang Qiru said.

"Well, you're right. What are you going to do? Zhao Yun asked.

"I looked at the terrain around me. It's still some distance from the city, and the roads are relatively smooth in front and back, making it a good place to stay. Moreover, the terrain here is high, and the view is very open, so you are not afraid of being attacked. In addition, I think another reason why this is suitable for stationing is that there are only two ways to get up and down the bridge, and if we block both sides of the bridge, it will become a relatively closed space, as long as the two ends are well defended, it should be very safe. Zhang Qiru analyzed.

"And we have another way out, and that's the river below! In the unlikely event that an uncontrollable situation does arise, we will at least have one more waterway to escape! We can still fish on the bridge or something, at least to solve some food problems! Zhao Yundao.

"Well, that's right." Zhang Qiru thought for a while, "The people behind should also arrive in a few days, right?" ”

"Are you afraid that there won't be so many people here? Don't worry, it can fit! The bridge spans about five kilometers, and the length of five meters above the water is also four kilometers, and it has four lanes in both directions, about twenty-eight meters wide, which is enough! Zhao Yun said.

"But there are enough of us! It is estimated that it will be crowded, and it may also hinder traffic! Zhang Qiru said.

"It's okay, the sidewalks are not occupied, and the motorized lanes are lined up closely, so that there is a road to go!" Zhao Yundao.

"If only these guys were following the rules!" Zhang Qiru said, "Let's stay at the front." ”

"What about the road closure? Poured with concrete? It's a bit difficult, right? Zhao Yundao.

"It's simple, just use a container or steel plate to hold it up, and you don't expect it to play a role, just don't be breached at the first time." Zhang Qiru said.

"Okay. Looks like there's nothing to do today, so let's go hunting early tomorrow morning, right? Zhao Yundao.

"Good!"

.......

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Qiru packed up some equipment and set off with Zhao Yun, this time, Zhang Qiru brought Buck, who had not appeared for a long time. The two of them and a dog slowly walked towards the city.

About two hours later, Zhang Qiru and Zhao Yun came to the edge of the city. This is the first time since the end of the world that Zhang Qiru has really touched an abandoned city up close. If the city only exudes a sense of death when Zhang Qiru left Tongshi, then what the city has now is a sense of desolation with some vitality.

The city's avenues are overgrown with weeds, and some towering trees have taken over the territory where there is no concrete cover. All kinds of large and small vehicles on the road are parked indiscriminately on the road, and some of them are overturned on the side of the road. The whole city is very quiet, as if there is no living thing moving. But Zhang Qiru knew that in these dilapidated buildings, in the weed-covered land, there were countless unknown dangers.

Zhang Qiru and Zhao Yun walked into the city, and Buck was now in charge of security, and no matter how much trouble he had, he couldn't escape his pursuit. Walking into the central avenue of the city, Zhang Qiru saw a bookstore and walked into the store.

Zhang Qiru gently opened the door and saw a large pile of books on the ground, and even some burned ashes, it seemed that someone had been hiding here. Zhang Qiru picked up a book on the ground, brushed off the dust on it, and then opened it. On the title page of the book it is written: May all afflictions never smit you!

Zhang Qiru stroked Juanxiu's handwriting. It can be seen that this is a woman's word, perhaps for her good friend, and now this sentence is appropriate in the last days.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Yun saw that Zhang Qiru was a little distracted, and stepped forward to ask.

"Nothing, just remembering when we were still in school!" Zhang Qiru said.

"Hmm. At that time, we especially liked to go to the library and read some messy books. Zhao Yun also remembered his student days.

"I still remember when we first went to become teachers, we bought a bunch of books and distributed them to the students." Zhang Qiru said.

"yes, but these guys don't appreciate it at all, and they think we're abusing him!" Zhao Yun smiled slightly and said.

"Well, these books are probably the least valuable things now, aren't they?" Zhang Qiru sighed a little.

"Our students are basically gone...... right," Zhao Yun was also a little sad.

Zhang Qiru put down the book and walked around the bookstore. Suddenly, he saw a notebook in the corner of the bookstore. Zhang Qiru walked over and picked up the notebook.

The notebook reads:

January 1st – I don't know how long I can hold out, I feel like the virus has eaten away at my brain. I can't control my desire to eat meat......

January 2nd - It's the second day, and the pain has lessened a bit, but I still crave meat, and I can't swallow the rest of the food at all!

January 5th – Oh my God, why am I not dead yet!

January 7th - I couldn't help myself, I saw a compatriot and I wanted his help......

January 8th - He's such a nice guy, but I still have a desire to eat him......

January 12th - I suffer every day!

January 15 – What a wonderful taste of human flesh!

This was the end of the handwriting in the notebook, leaving only a pool of dried blood.

"This ......" Zhao Yun also saw the handwriting and frowned.

"Not a good thing! This is a thinking zombie, cloaked in human skin, and eating human flesh! Zhang Qiru said, "The fact that he can get along with ordinary people without being discovered shows that he still maintains the appearance of a human being, but his heart has been zombieized!" ”

"Then this one is in trouble! I wonder if he could infiltrate us! Zhao Yun said worriedly.

"Then inform our people and try not to come into contact with strangers!" Zhang Qiru said.

Zhao Yun was about to say something, and suddenly, Buck at the door shouted. Zhang Qiru immediately put away his notebook and rushed out, seeing a black shadow disappear around the corner.

"Chase!" Zhang Qiru said.
