Chapter 69: Alone

I roughly calculated the time, and Yang Yang and I found out about the chaos on Saturday morning, and if this person's diary entry was correct, it should have been the first day of the chaos here, but at that time they didn't understand what was going on.

I flipped through the general content again, and most of them were descriptions of the situation at the time, as well as some psychological changes in the owner of the diary.

In fact, the people I've always met are more optimistic, probably because everyone is still young, so the mentality is better, so although the situation has not been good, recently I have been living a life of fear every day, but compared to the person in this diary, we still have to live a much brighter life.

Looking at his diary, I felt that by the time he came, his psychology had been completely crushed, and only the instinct of survival was left to support him to live.

Flipping back a few more pages, a small detail in the diary caught my eye.

"Erwa, this child is too disturbing, he is not obedient at all, let him not drink cold water, he doesn't listen, this is a bad stomach, I can't find medicine for him, but what should I do?"

When I saw this, it suddenly occurred to me that this passage was connected to something.

When I see those people in the village, I always feel that there is something strange in my heart, but I always can't remember what the doubt is.

The village is not like the county or the city, there are small shops and supermarkets everywhere, they live here so many people, they must also eat and drink, not to mention that they have their own food, much better than the biscuits and beef jerky we eat. The point is, the water they drink ...

Not having a supermarket mall means not having enough bottled water for them, that is... They have always drunk water from wells or tap water. I had seen a faucet in Zhang Hongsheng's yard before, but I couldn't be sure if it was connected to the tap water or the well that I had installed myself.

But no matter what, at least one thing I know for sure is that the water may not be as dangerous as I thought, after all, so many of them have been drinking it for so long, but... If you think about it in another way, will the second baby mentioned in this diary, Zhang Tiesheng and the two children who died also get sick because of drinking this water?

Locksky has also speculated before that maybe those symptoms that seem to be malaria are actually just a complication of the walking corpse virus infection.

I remember seeing a similar scene in a foreign movie before, after a living person is bitten, he will keep heating up, then die quickly, and finally come back to life again.

Of course, these are just my guesses, after all, there are many questions that the answers are completely blank, such as why the walking corpses in the walking corpse pit did not decay as quickly as other walking corpses, but still looked like living people after months?

Sitting on the chair and thinking for a long time, in the end, my mind was a mess before I had to stop thinking, the door outside was still slammed by the walking corpse, accompanied by those screams, the people who were really noisy panicked, I don't know how long time had passed, after standing up from the chair and stretching hard, I walked to the door of the house, thinking, why haven't they come here yet?

I squatted in front of the door for a while, until my feet were numb, and then I got up again, sighed and went back to the room I had just had, perhaps in some trouble.

Wrong... They can't be in trouble! Once I ran into trouble, I didn't dare to think about the consequences at all, so I could only deceive myself and think that I must have not found me here, after all, the village is not small.

Sitting on the kang with my back against the wall, I was able to brace myself up and keep my ears on the movement outside, but as time went on, my thoughts began to become a little blurred.

Finally, the cries of the walking corpses outside could not attract my attention, so I simply shrunk down and tried to circle up, and then covered myself with a dirty blanket on the kang that had obviously fallen dust for several months, and fell into a deep sleep.

Half-asleep and half-awake, I seemed to hear a few gunshots, and I couldn't tell the distance of the sound in my sleep, but I realized that it was a gunshot, and fell asleep again.

I've always been a sensitive person in terms of sleep, and this time I didn't expect to be in the current situation, I could sleep so deeply, and sleep until dawn.

After waking up and clearing my thoughts for a while, I got up from the kang, put on my shoes and rushed towards the yard.

But as soon as I got to the door of the house, I stopped.

The sun was already out outside, and the snow in the yard should have begun to melt, with only a single row of footprints on the snow from when I came last night, and the roar of the walking corpses at the door continued.

I stood there for a long time before I gradually reacted... They didn't come all night.

Didn't you find me? Still is... What's wrong with them?

As soon as the last conjecture came to my mind, my body immediately shivered involuntarily. A strong strange feeling instantly enveloped me, mixed with fear, loneliness, and the trembling of the unknown.

I took several deep breaths to try to calm myself down, but it didn't work, I didn't know what I should calm down, or how to calm down? Because I feel very calm inside, but there are some places that are really surging.

Shaking my head twice, I took a stride towards the door, ready to see through the crack in the door if the number of walking corpses had decreased.

In fact, as long as you listen to the roar outside, you can guess that the number of walking corpses outside is definitely increasing compared to last night, and there is no need to go to see it, but there is no way, now I don't know what else to do except let myself do these meaningless things.

Just as I was about to reach the gate, the corner of my eye suddenly swept to the courtyard wall on the left.

After a pause, he stopped and turned his head to look over.

When this courtyard came in yesterday, it was in the middle of the whole alley, so the other side of the courtyard wall must be other residential houses, and the man's diary yesterday also mentioned his neighbor, that is to say, next to it is the courtyard of another family?

I recalled that Zhang Hongsheng and their alley were all next to the courtyard wall, and there was almost no vacant space, and this alley was next to theirs, and it stands to reason that the pattern should be similar.

After a pause, I turned around and walked slowly to the wall, looked up and roughly calculated the height, thinking, if this is the case, then I can climb to the house next door and rush out of them, now the walking corpses outside must all be around the door of my yard, the walking corpses don't have such a high IQ to know how to guard the other exits.

My heart has been lifted to the top of my head by the safety of Yang Yang and their group, if they are okay, it is absolutely impossible not to come to me overnight, since the method has been thought of, just do it.

The wall is not high, but I am not locked, I don't have the ability to climb the wall, I went back to the living room and moved the two wooden stools that fell to the ground and stacked them in the corner, after making sure that the stool was stable, I raised my foot and stepped on it, the height was just enough for me to prop my upper body to the wall, and quickly swept the yard next to me.

The situation is not too bad, the gate of the yard is also ajar, and there are two walking corpses that are estimated to have broken in by mistake and are wandering in the yard in confusion, but there is no need to be afraid, I can still deal with the two walking corpses. They noticed me as I leaned out, and the two walking corpses lifted their spirits, opened their mouths and roared towards the courtyard wall where I was.

In order to prevent their cries from attracting other walking corpses, I did not dare to delay the time on the wall, and my upper body was propped up on the wall, trying to move my whole body to the wall, I was very glad that there was no broken glass and inverted nails on the wall of the family, otherwise I would have to tie it into a hornet's nest according to my climbing method.

The wall wasn't too short, and the two walking corpses stretched out their arms to try to grab me as they moved to the edge of the wall, but they were always a little away from the top of the wall I was stepping on, and I began to rejoice that the walking corpses didn't know how to jump, otherwise they would have to catch their feet and necks.

Standing on top of the fence and looking down, my legs trembled unconsciously... Why didn't you feel high down there just now?

After taking two deep breaths, I simply stopped looking at the ground, stared intently at the fence under my feet, and after determining the width, I clenched my teeth and walked a few quick steps to the side, taking advantage of the two slow walking corpses not to react and chase this way, I was ruthless and jumped towards the courtyard.

The snow on the ground hadn't completely melted, and even if I jumped from such a high place, I didn't feel much shock, but the moment my feet touched the ground, the snow that hadn't melted was so slippery that I didn't hold it steady and fell to the ground.
