Chapter 54: The Mysterious Man in Black

Wu Jiantao's brows furrowed into Sichuan characters, picked up the loudspeaker beside him, and said in a serious tone: "Comrades, some time ago, a resident evil broke out, some of our relatives, friends and other strangers have become zombies, and some have been killed by zombies, and the population of three million in my North City is now less than 100,000 people, what is the reason?" Is it normal to be born, old, sick and die? No! It's all due to the damn brutes, so what should we do? Is it curled up in the city as a lost dog? No! It should be those zombies who should become the dogs of the lost family, the zombies who disturb our homes. ”

"Boom!" Two different reactions erupted from under the stands, the team with veterans as the main body was extremely quiet, but there was a fierce killing intent all over their bodies, and their eyes turned red for a moment. The other part is dominated by those homeless people, and after hearing Wu Jiantao's words, various discussions broke out in the crowd, including "Are we going out to kill zombies?" This kind of rhetoric is dominant, and for a time the square was very noisy.

Wu Jiantao looked down at the crowd in the audience, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, he raised his horn, ignoring the heated discussion below, and said lightly: "I believe everyone can see that a few days ago we have successfully forced the zombies near Beishi out of the city, and now the tens of thousands of zombies have no way to escape on the national highway outside, their rear is a bottomless abyss, and in front of them are our heroic Beishi sons, now, please tell me, what are you going to do!" ”

His voice gradually rose in tune, like a loud thunder in the hearts of the soldiers, inspiring the anger in their hearts, "Kill", suddenly a voice sounded from the group of veterans, and quickly spread around: "Kill! Kill! Kill! The old soldier's angry roar was like layers of huge waves surging in all directions, and the other soldiers who were stunned by Wu Jiantao's words were in a daze: "What? Are we really going to go out there zombies? ”

"Why do you want to kill them all when you've already driven them out?" "The one in front, why didn't the zombies kill you when they ate your family?" "Draft, you say it again?"

"What's the matter? When the zombies eat your father and your mother, why don't you kill them all! "Draft, you look for death!" Wu Jiantao looked at the group of recruits who were in a mess below, among which there were not a few, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he spoke lightly, his voice was not loud but spread throughout the square, clearly drilling into the ears of every recruit: "If you don't want to go, you can, now take off your military uniform, hand over the food you took before and hand over the food and Yulu, you can go, otherwise, it will be dealt with according to military regulations!" ”

"Military, military-spec? What Mil-spec? A man in his thirties in the crowd spoke at a loss, with a scratch on his face, he had been added to the group in the first place. Deserter, death penalty! A twenty-three-year-old man not far from him said coldly, he was already a five-year veteran, to be honest, he really looked down on these refugees who came into the army to eat and drink, like this kind of waste, he can be ten alone.

"Death penalty?" In just two words, it spread throughout the entire recruit unit in an instant, the soldiers who were scuffling together suddenly stopped, and the soldiers who were spreading negative remarks also closed their mouths, and the whole square was quiet for a moment, after all, there is only one life, maybe Wu Jiantao will pick which one to open. Seeing this, Wu Jiantao's expression did not change at all, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, a group of guys who are greedy for life and afraid of death, this is Wu Jiantao's opinion of most of this group of recruits.

"Since there is no objection, then raise your weapons and prepare for the first battle in the last days!" Wu Jiantao's voice spread throughout the audience through the loudspeaker, and a surge of killing intent suddenly erupted in the group of veterans. "Kill! Kill! Kill! Wu Jiantao's eyes flashed with a hint of satisfaction in the stands, in his opinion, the current group of troops inherited from the era of peace is the main combat strength of the last days of China, as for those soldiers who joined after the end of the world, they can be compared with less than one.

。。。。。。 The listed army has already begun to set off, and tens of thousands of various zombies are crowded on the national highway outside, including many second-order or even third-order, and the dense zombies are crowded into a black ribbon that is tens of kilometers long, and it seems to go straight to the sky from a distance. I stood on the edge of the crack, the toes of my feet already sticking out of the cracks but not a trace of panic, and the monk stood next to me, his eyes full of worry, his arms bursting with green tendons, ready to pull me back from the air at any moment. The zombies on the other side of the crack suddenly found that there were so many fresh humans on the other side, and their mouths let out excited roars, and the smelly saliva dripped from the corners of their mouths and fell into the abyss, the zombies in front had been squeezed to the edge of the abyss, and the zombies in the back continued to crowd forward, they didn't care about what was in front of them, they just needed to know that there was a human smell on the other side, and the zombies in the front row fell into the abyss in rows, and they were constantly updated by the zombies behind.

"What do we do now?" The monk couldn't help but speak, he glanced at Su Gang and his party behind him, and couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart. I suddenly sat on the ground, stretched out my legs from the cliff, and took the monk down, to be honest, this kind of temptation on the edge of the abyss brought me much more excitement than killing zombies, of course, I mean those first-order and second-order zombies. "Death, look", I suddenly stretched out my hand and pointed to the zombies on the other side of the cliff, and my voice was flat: "How many zombies do you think there are on the other side?" "The monk was stunned, didn't you say before that there were more than 10,000 zombies on the other side of the crack? Why did you turn your head and ask me again?

"More than 10,000 zombies", I couldn't help but sigh a little: "I have killed two back and forth in Jinzhou City in the past month or so, and one back and forth in Cangquan City, not to mention how many zombies I have killed, but there are not more than 10,000 zombies in total." I picked up a stone on the side of the road and threw it on the opposite side, and it happened to hit the head of a zombie, and the angry zombie pounced on me, but fell into the abyss in mid-air, "You say, how can this game be broken at the moment, relying on our more than 20 people?" ”

The monk was stunned, he didn't understand what I meant, and after a pause, he said, "Boss, are you at a loss?" "Huh", I chuckled, pointed to the three or two trucks behind, and ordered: "Yuanli, Fan Lei and Yang Hua, you guys go and tear down the back door of the train for me to put on the cracks, it's been a long time, we have to find something to do." Hearing this, the six people were stunned, turned around and ran back, and before leaving, the monk was still holding my clothes and pulling me away from the crack, in his words, what if I left and you fell.

Patting the dust off my body, I returned to the crowd. "Boss, are we going to put the back door on it and drive over?" Su Gang couldn't help but speak, with a hint of doubt in his tone. I tilted my head and looked at him with a strange expression, why did he think so, not to mention whether the back door of the car could withstand a truck of more than ten tons, even if it rushed over, and then what? Pushed into the abyss by a crowd of zombies?" You think too much", I couldn't help but hold my forehead and explain to him, and at the same time to the others: "The zombies on the opposite side are definitely not something we can solve, at least not now, so we just need to wait here, and wait for the big army to come, during this period, you can divert the zombies on the opposite side to attract them, aren't they unable to jump, then build a bridge for them and pick them up." ”

"Then kill them one by one", Su Gang didn't speak, Fan Lei's excited business came from behind, and he partnered with Yang Hua to carry a door, and said: "Cut off their heads, and then throw them into the abyss." The smile on my face paused, and I nodded at Su Gang, but I couldn't help but be speechless in my heart, I didn't expect Fan Lei to be a violent maniac. So when will the troops in the back come? Su Gang couldn't help but ask, he looked at the tens of thousands of zombies on the opposite side and was really a little panicked.

I turned my head, looked directly at the tide of corpses on the opposite side, looked behind me through the black ribbon of dozens of kilometers, and said lightly: "It depends on their speed." "That's right, what I said about the big army behind me refers to the army of Beishi, since yesterday I saw the zombies on the opposite side of the crack I felt a little wrong, at first I just felt that there were so many zombies gathered here, and when I returned to the car to check the map, I found that Beishi was only less than twenty kilometers away from here, but there were ten kilometers of zombie land in this short twenty kilometers, which made me a little clear, it seems that the army of Beishi or the controller of the army is going to make a big deal.

"Boss, it's done", the monk touched the dust on his face and said, because he had been running long distances on the road for a long time, and the door of the truck was full of dust, and when he was violently disassembled just now, he didn't pay attention to the whole person covered with dust. I looked across the crack, and there were three two-meter-wide iron gates on the deep crack, creating a chance for the zombies on the other side to come over. "Roar!" A zombie at the front found the passage that suddenly appeared, its mouth let out a terrifying roar, the corners of its mouth grinned back, revealing black teeth, and there was disgusting carrion between its teeth, it staggered onto the passage and walked to the opposite side, and the zombies behind followed one after another, and for a while these three iron doors became a shortcut for zombies to pass.

"This?" Su Gang was shocked, and suddenly raised the rifle in his hand and aimed it at the zombie and was about to shoot, but I stretched out my hand to stop him, I looked at Yang Hua and the others on the side, and shrugged my shoulders: "Which of you is going to get rid of them?" ”

Yang Hua's face showed a hint of intention, and he raised his arm and was about to speak, but suddenly heard Fan Lei's excited voice beside him, and at the same time, a figure quickly rushed towards the zombies, "Hahaha, zombies, your Grandpa Fan is here, poof!" Fan Lei's right hand slammed into a fist and hit the head of the first zombie, but the poor zombie was blown off the head by Fan Lei as soon as he stepped on the side of the road with his front foot. , you are a person", Yang Hua suddenly burst into a foul mouth, and his tone was full of dissatisfaction with Fan Lei: "The boss is asking about the four of us, and it's not you, what are you making a fuss about?" That being said, he had already rushed out of place and was stationed at the door of another passageway.

"Second brother, third brother, aren't you going to try it?" Yang Soul, who was standing quietly at the back of the crowd, suddenly spoke, the bone spurs of his hands stretched out abruptly, and the slightly trembling hands showed the excitement in his heart and his desire to fight, but despite this, he still wanted to leave the opportunity to Yang Jun and Yang Xia, after all, there are few opportunities for such undangerous exercises in the last days. Hearing this, Yang Jun and Yang Xia glanced at each other, and agreed in unison: "Okay!" With that, the two of them rushed towards the third passage. Su Gang and his group of thirteen people couldn't help but be a little speechless, what kind of people are these, how can they be so excited to see zombies, but at the same time, the primitive wildness in their hearts was gradually aroused by the four of them.

"Boss", I leaned on the car, and the monk walked over, quietly glanced at Su Gang on the side, and whispered: "Where do we have troops behind!" I smiled, and looked at the zombie group opposite, and the monk was stunned, what does this mean? He was about to ask, but I interrupted: "Hey, is there any book in your Shaolin Temple that records about zombies?" I straightened up and asked him with a serious face.

"Zombies?" The monk was stunned for a moment: "It's the kind of species that is spurned by people, ghosts and gods, and beyond the Three Realms and Six Realms?" Boss, why did you suddenly ask about this thing? My eyes lit up, it seemed that there was, I looked around, and said mysteriously: "Haven't you always been curious about where I went with the first snow two days ago?" Tell you, I'm 。。。。。。。。。 ”

"Wait, wait, boss, I'm not curious", the monk suddenly interrupted me, his face full of doubts, when did I express that I was curious about your affairs? Looks like I'm still not hiding well enough. "Smack!" I slapped him on the bare skull, and my tone was full of irritability: "I said you were curious, you were curious, listen." The monk stared, his face full of grievances but had no choice but to listen to me, "Do you know what we ran into there?" The Tombs," I said, with a hint of ostentation in my tone, "Do you know what's in the tombs?" Zombies. ”

Hearing this, a trace of surprise appeared on the face of the monk who passed away, "What? Corpse? He didn't lower his tone, and involuntarily shouted, drawing the eyes of the others together. It's okay, it's okay, you're busy with you", I smiled and waved my hand, grabbed the ear of the monk who passed away and pulled him back, and scolded at the same time: "Can you be quieter, for fear that others won't know?" The monk rubbed his reddened ears and said aggrievedly: "Aren't I a little surprised, boss, you really ran into a zombie." ”

I nodded with a serious face: "At that time, I accidentally entered an ancient tomb under a waterfall with Chu Xue, according to Chu Xue's guess, it should be a general's ancient tomb, and the zombie we encountered was the general's lieutenant, but there are some other strange places in that tomb." "And how did you escape?" The monk is more concerned about this issue, the zombie at the level of the deputy general, he doesn't think I can deal with it. "Ahem," I cleared my throat and said unashamedly: "Of course, it's because of my extraordinary wisdom and ability to coax." ”

The worship of the imaginary monk did not appear, he stared at me with a contemptuous gaze, as if to say that you continue to blow, I listened very seriously, "Okay, I admit it, in fact, I don't know where a five or six meter-long mutant tiger appeared, and the two of them fought together, so we had a chance to escape." "This is what meets the needs of the development of the plot", the monk shook his head and said in a sly manner, "But are you sure you encountered a zombie?" ”

I frowned: "Could it be that there are other species?" A hint of nervousness appeared on his face: "Then tell me what characteristics he has?" ”。

"Features," I thought about, "his complexion is blue and purple, his eyes are red, the fingers of his hands are dry, the black nails of his fingertips are curved but extremely sharp, and there are white hairs on his body that are harder than a needle, and his body is unusually hard, which is estimated to be comparable to my sharp blade." ”

The monk frowned together, didn't speak for a long time, and I didn't urge, just watched a group of people frantically looking at the zombies in front, except for Fan Lei, who frantically gathered the zombies together and smashed their heads one by one, there were also four or five people in that group of drivers who joined the battle, including Xu Haoyong and Xu Haotian, a father and son, the two of them cooperated with each other, one sold his ass in front and the other cut zombies in the back, but it was a small achievement, but it was just 。。。。。。。 From time to time, the roar of father and son came from the empty street: "Xu Haotian, you little rabbit cub, hurry up, the zombie is going to bite my ass!" "Oh, Dad, don't shout, I'm not attacking!" It's a little unbearable.

Shen Chuxue suddenly walked to my side, looked at the father and son in front of him like a living treasure, and sighed: "I haven't seen such a cheerful scene for a long time, the last time I saw my father was when I came home for the summer vacation, so long has passed in a blink of an eye." She suddenly looked up at me: "Brother Shi, what about you?" "Me?" I opened my mouth, I didn't know what to say, unlike her who hadn't seen her parents for months, I hadn't seen her for decades, to be precise, I had grown up in an orphanage since I was born, and that orphanage held all my childhood memories. "I don't know, I haven't seen them anyway", I suddenly laughed, but there was a hint of sadness in my tone. "Brother Shi", Shen Chuxue reached out to hold my arm, and her eyes were a little moist. "That's it, don't talk about it, it's only more annoying," I said, waving my hand.

"Damn, I remember!" The monk suddenly shouted, startling me and Shen Chuxue, he didn't pay any attention to my dissatisfied eyes, looked at me with a serious face, and said: "I remember, boss, there is a book dedicated to zombies in the Zangjing Pavilion of Shaolin Temple called the first year of Kaiyuan, which is about a murder that occurred in the Tang Dynasty during the Tang Dynasty, and in just one year, the population of more than 300 small mountain villages disappeared for no reason, and finally found out that it was zombies. ”

I nodded, saw that he had his mouth shut, and couldn't help but ask, "And then?" The monk touched his head, and there was a hint of embarrassment on his face: "Then, and then I forgot。。。。。。 ”

"Damn!"

At the entrance of the North City, an army of 10,000 people marched forward mightily, as the vanguard of the soldiers in the peacetime era had an excited expression on their faces, while the new soldiers in the back were drooping their heads, their faces were full of sullenness, in the rear of the army, Wu Jiantao and the mysterious man in black sat in the car and looked ahead, without a little communication, the atmosphere in the car was extremely dignified, and the two people had their own ghosts in their hearts. The driver in front of him clenched the handlebars with both hands, beads of sweat slid down his face, and he felt like he was about to die unexpectedly when he heard the conversation between the major general and the mysterious man in black in the back seat.

"Wen", Wu Jiantao suddenly spoke, his tone was flat without a trace of emotion: "What do you think with 10,000 troops against 10,000 zombies and only 5,000 deaths will raise me to?" "I don't know how far you can go, but what you promised me must be done." Wu Jiantao didn't speak, just looked at the driver driving in front of him lightly, he was a veteran of the peacetime era, and he drove himself since the peacetime era. Xiao Wu", he suddenly spoke, his tone was very flat, but Xiao Wu trembled, the steering wheel in his hand slid sideways, and the car shook violently twice.

Wu Jiantao frowned, and then let go: "Xiao Wu, what are you nervous about?" You didn't hear what I said just now. Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment, and was about to speak, but heard Wu Jiantao continue: "In this troubled world now, there is a scarcity of talents in the army, and there is just a lack of a secretary by my side, so let's do it, Xiao Wu, you can be my part-time secretary while I am my driver." Xiao Wu held the steering wheel tightly, a trace of surprise suddenly appeared on his face, he naturally knew what Wu Jiantao meant, don't care about his mouth, treat what happened just now as if he didn't hear it, I will give you a promotion and knighthood, otherwise, you will die in the line of duty or be killed by mutiny, anyway, it is the end of the world, and the death of 11,100 people is just a drizzle, not to mention that you are a small driver.
