Chapter 41: Coming Home
After a short sloping area, the two came to the fence of the Motor City, and followed the wall to a major road.
The road was calm except for a few cars colliding together, and the short road soon merged into the city's main road, and now the two were crouching in the middle of the abandoned cars at the front of the road.
"There are so many walking corpses and cars that it won't work here"
"Why don't we go back first, and then retreat a little bit to the edge of the city."
"Alas~ this can only be the case"
The two of them lightly returned to the highway the way they came, and headed back in the direction of leaving the city.
......。
"Not here! How are there walking corpses everywhere! ”
was already about to reach the edge of the city, but he hadn't been able to find a route that could barely pass, and the sky was slowly starting to darken, Wang Xi began to feel anxious.
"Husband, don't worry, we will definitely find a way back......"
"It's almost out of the city, where is the road!"
After going through so much, he finally returned to his hometown, but now he can't go home in the city for a long time, Wang Xi couldn't control his emotions all of a sudden, and roared Tingting who comforted him kindly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby, I'm for a while..., hey~ Don't be angry with me, okay?"
Seeing Tingting standing there with her head down because she was aggrieved, Wang Xi hurriedly explained to her and asked for forgiveness.
"I'm not angry, I know you're in a hurry, but I can't help you"
"Don't think so, you've helped me enough along the way"
Wang Xi gently hugged Tingting into his arms.
"Husband, this is your hometown, you should be the most familiar with it, think about it, where can we have the opportunity to enter the city"
Tingting crawled in Wang Xi's arms and reminded him in a whisper, Wang Xi, who reacted because of Tingting's reminder, began to work hard to recall the layout of the city, and also thought about the possibility of entering the city through a certain point.
"The road full of walking corpses and cars just now is the national highway that crosses the entire city, and it is also connected to the toll booth of the highway, so there will be so many walking corpses and vehicles, assuming that everyone chooses this road to escape before the disaster, plus some people who hide at home according to Zheng Fu's request, then as long as we can go around to the foot of the mountain on the other side of the city, it should be relatively easy to return to my house."
Wang Xi glanced in the direction of the city, and didn't know whether he was talking to himself or to Tingting in his arms, anyway, now there is a way to go home smoothly.
"Then let's hurry up"
"But it's going to be dark, and there's still a long way to go around."
"We've got flashlights with us, so we can try to get around overnight, and if we're lucky, we'll be at your house before dawn."
"No! It's too dangerous, let's wait until dawn tomorrow before we leave, I know you're afraid that I'm going home in a hurry, but no matter how anxious you are, you can't lose your life."
"Alright then, according to what you said, we'll leave tomorrow at dawn."
After the conversation, the two began to find a place to spend the night, in fact, it was not difficult to find, a bunch of various cars on the side of the road could allow them to spend the night safely.
After nibbling on some dry food, the two lay in a business car and chatted about some details about tomorrow's action, and after chatting, they were ready to sleep well, but after all, they risked their lives all the way to reunite with the family, and this wish could be realized soon, so not only Wang Xi, but even Tingting never fell asleep.
......。
After a long night, the two finally waited for the long-awaited dawn, although it was dawn, but the sun had not yet risen, the two people found their motorcycles, and set off.
Before they left the Pingba District, where the city was located, they came to a sparsely scattered area of several villages, and the two of them agreed to start their ...... from here.
There are few isolated villages that are not connected, and they have always chosen to walk in the fields and bushes, so the long section of the detour passes smoothly.
It took a morning, the two finally approached the mountain, but the village at the foot of the mountain and the half-developed real estate has increased, if you start to enter the city, because there are dense buildings in front, I don't know if there will still be a lot of walking corpses waiting for them after passing through, so Wang Xi decided to pass through the development of the real estate, along the halfway up the mountain, so that not only is it much safer, but also can take advantage of the terrain to observe the situation in this urban area.
The construction site was empty, and the two of them easily passed through the entire development area, and by the way, they also found a suitable steel bar as a melee weapon.
At the foot of the mountain, the two happened to see a sheep intestine trail up the mountain, along the winding and rugged path until they came halfway up the mountain, and only then did they step into the mountain forest overgrown with trees and weeds, and walked for a short while, and by a place with a wide field of vision, the two stopped to observe the situation of an urban area below the mountain.
"Husband, the situation here is really much better, you see, there are basically no walking corpses on the road, and there are few cars"
Wang Xi didn't speak, just nodded slightly, his eyes still trying to observe the places as far as his eyes could see.
"It really doesn't seem to be a threat, this should be a large wholesale market in our Lanshan, and few people have come before."
"Shall we go down or continue in the mountains?"
"It's still in the mountains, if nothing else, we'll walk a little longer and we'll walk to our cemetery, and then down the hill along the road, and it's not far from our house."
"Let's go, then."
The two continued to walk along the mountainside, not forgetting to check the situation down the mountain from time to time on the way.
......。
On the other side of the hill, the two of them clearly saw the cemetery in front of them, with rows of white tombstones and a Buddha statue at the top of the hill being the best identification signs.
Quicken the pace, and it didn't take long for them to reach the cemetery.
"Wow, there are so many tombstones, there are not even walking corpses in this quiet place, I'm still a little scared."
"This kind of place can be scary, but it should be the least likely place for the walking dead to appear right now."
Tingting hugged one of Wang Xi's arms tightly and just nodded.
"Let's go, you should be able to go down the mountain along this road"
Tingting still held Wang Xi's hand tightly, and the two walked cautiously like this.
The road down the mountain is lined with woods on both sides, and it is not too dense, so I can basically confirm that this area is indeed safe, but when I was about to enter the city, I passed by a place similar to a village and encountered two wandering walking corpse .......
Holding the blood-dripping steel bar, the two hid behind a billboard at the bus stop and checked the streets.
Except for a few discarded cars, there were not many walking corpses on the streets, but the two of them still didn't dare to start marching rashly, after all, no one knew if there would be a large number of walking corpses in the invisible alleys or residential areas on the side roads.
"Tingting, no matter what, it's very unrealistic to walk around the city, I want to take a risk..."
"Adventure? ...... You say, how? ”
"I think those cars should have been left behind in the panic of the previous people, as long as one of them can be driven, we will drive directly to the downstairs of my house......"
"But...... Forget it, no matter how much it is, this may be the only way to go home."
"Okay, then you are here to help me watch, I'll go find it!"
Seeing Tingting nodding, Wang Xi bent over and quickly ran from the bus stop towards the vehicles on the road, while Tingting hid in place and looked at the .......
Wang Xi tried car by car, finally, after two fireshots, the engine of a car roared, Wang Xi quickly drove the car to Tingting's position, the car did not stop, Tingting ran over and opened the door and got in, regardless of a large number of attracted walking corpses, Wang Xi stepped on the accelerator and began to drive quickly on the street in the direction ......of his home.
The sound of car engines and tires scraping against the ground resounded in every neighborhood it passed, and it also attracted the walking corpses in this large area, but the speed of approaching them was fast and slow.
Because it was inevitable to hit some walking corpses on the road, and some of them were directly knocked from the front of the car to the rear of the car, and the front windshield was also smashed in the process, Wang Xi could only stretch his neck and look at the road in front of him from the window, but Tingting was holding the handle tightly, and the whole person swayed left and right.
Seeing that the front windshield was about to be broken, Wang Xi drove the car to a sharp turn, first crashed into the lifting pole at the entrance of the community, and passed through the community square where only a few walking corpses roamed, Wang Xi blocked the car horizontally at the entrance of a residential building, opened the car door, first stretched out his legs, and slept on the seat, holding the steering wheel with one hand, and holding the seat back with the other, and then kicked the locked door with all his strength.
"Bear, hurry up and ......."
On the co-pilot's side where Tingting was, there were several walking corpses lying on the body, grabbing, patting, and yelling hysterically ......, and there were more and more ........
"Bang!"
Wang Xi finally kicked open the door, he pulled out his pistol in a panic, and aimed at the corridor in the posture of sleeping on a chair, a few seconds later, Wang Xi got up and got out of the car and entered the corridor on the first floor, Tingting also followed closely behind and climbed out of the door on Wang Xi's side.
Handed over to Tingting to guard the corridor, Wang Xi turned around and went back to the car and took out a backpack and rifle, at this time the roof of the car was already crawling with walking corpses, Wang Xi quickly closed the door and the door that was kicked open by himself, and used a backpack rope to wrap the door handles of the two doors tightly together, the length of the car and the small door frame, those walking corpses climbing on the roof of the car even if they were attached to the glass of the gate only showed half of their faces, and their hands were even more difficult because they did not have a focus point.
Wang Xi dragged the backpack and rifle on the ground and slowly walked back to Tingting's side, making sure that the door was safe for the time being, Wang Xi put the backpack and rifle on his back, turned around and walked towards the stairwell with Tingting with a pistol.
As soon as he pushed open the fire door of the stairwell, Wang Xi quickly flashed in, and then observed and aimed for a moment, and only after making sure that there was nothing did he wave to Tingting, who was paying attention to the door behind him, and the two of them went up the stairs one after the other, step by step, and .......
has successfully climbed to the sixth floor, just when there are still two floors to their house, at the corner of the stairs they encountered a walking corpse that could only crawl to the two of them because they had no legs, the walking corpse was about to climb down the first stairs, Wang Xi strode up, stomped on the head of the walking corpse with his foot, the head of the walking corpse also just stretched to the top of the first staircase, Wang Xi stepped on the head of the walking corpse off his body, and the head of the walking corpse that was stepped on rolled down the stairs all the way, Tingting, who was still standing on the stairs, looked at the head of the walking corpse that rolled down from her, and she was also frightened.
After this, the two finally stood at the door of Wang Xi's house and glanced at each other.......
