Chapter 6: The Man in the Water Tower

Five, four, three, two, one.

……

With Xu Qingyang's hand pose.

In the clothing hypermarket, the iron door leading to the rooftop was opened by Wu Dabin little by little.

Five soldiers, including Xu Qingyang, stood in the corridor, holding the rifles in their hands in unison, aiming at the iron gate.

Two minutes earlier, the crashing sound at the iron door had stopped, and the hallway had become so quiet that only a few people could be heard breathing.

Xu Qingyang stood at the iron gate for a long time to confirm, and did not hear the sound of the zombies, so he ordered the door to be opened.

However, when the iron gate was opened, everyone realized that there was no one behind the iron gate.

The five people covered the front and back to enter the rooftop, and after searching around, they didn't find any zombies, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Wu Dabin closed the iron door, because he couldn't lock it from the outside, so he picked up a water pipe next to the water storage tower on the rooftop and inserted it into the doorknob.

After confirming that he would not fall easily, he walked to Li Shunhe's side with confidence and slapped him on the head.

"You're a, you're blind! Where are the zombies? "Wu Dabin and Li Shunhe are comrades-in-arms of a border defense regiment, and Wu Dabin, as a veteran, should scold this somewhat nervous recruit.

Everyone turned their eyes to Li Shunhe, only to see his innocent face, he was also very curious, obviously he saw at least five or six zombies just now, how did they disappear collectively in the time of a cup of tea.

Suddenly, there was a sound in the water tower, and in the five-meter-high stainless steel cylindrical water tower, it seemed to be in mid-air, and something hit the iron sheet, making a "bang" sound.

The five men immediately raised their guns and aimed them at the water tower.

Li Shunhe shook his hands and asked in a low voice: "This Nima, won't those zombies all hide in this water tower?" ”

Several people didn't dare to move for a while when they heard this, until finally a human head slowly emerged from the top of the water tower.

Zhang Lin, who was closest to him, looked at it and saw that it was a little boy, no more than eleven or twelve years old, with black pupils, looking at them with blinking eyes, and his face and expression seemed to be no different from that of a normal person.

He took a few steps forward with his gun and asked in a low voice, "Little friend, is there anyone else inside?" ”

The little boy looked around, but he didn't see those terrifying-looking "people", and the few people in front of him who looked relatively normal were all dressed as soldiers and guns, so he immediately nodded happily and said, "My mother is here, and there is an uncle." ”

Zhang Lin breathed a sigh of relief, greeted a few people, and said that there should be no problem, so he walked towards the water tower with a gun on his back.

After going around the water tower, I found that there was a ladder behind the water tower, so I climbed up the ladder and looked inside.

Sure enough, there was a woman in her thirties and a man in his forties.

The water in the water tower had already frozen into a thick layer of ice, and the man held the little boy, just enough to poke the little boy's head out of the hole in the water tower, and it seemed that none of the three of them had changed.

Several people worked together to pull out the three people in the water tower, and after asking, they learned that the three people hid on the eleventh floor all night yesterday afternoon, and did not dare to go downstairs, and when they were about to escape this morning, they were found by zombies, chased to the rooftop, and jumped into the water tower in a hurry.

It is also a big fortune teller, and I can hear someone talking outside, so I took the risk to take a look, but I didn't expect to meet the soldiers, if no one rescues me, I am afraid that I will have to freeze to death in the water tower after tonight.

The woman in her thirties is called Li Aijia, the little boy is her son, named Zheng Ke, the family was originally a small merchant in the clothing store, the man went to Slovan to buy leather goods a few days ago, and has not come back, in recent days I heard that it is not very peaceful, the store business is also very deserted, how dare the orphans and widows open the door to do business, hiding in the shop, but unexpectedly yesterday afternoon in just half an hour, the hypermarket became a Shura field.

The man in his forties is called Wang Xiang, he doesn't talk much, he only said that he came to the hypermarket to buy clothes, but everyone is very strange, there are too few people who have the leisure to come out to buy clothes these days, if they are really as crowded as usual, I am afraid that they will not even be able to enter the store corridor and be torn to pieces.

However, he saved the lives of Li Aijia's mother and son in a critical situation yesterday, and everyone didn't ask much.

In the midst of the conversation of several people, the sky had gradually darkened.

Zhang Lin, a communications soldier, had not yet completed the assembly of his wireless equipment, because he did not dare to turn on the lights or light a fire easily at night, so he had to wait until dawn tomorrow to continue the assembly.

Four GIs, an officer, and three civilians, huddled under the eaves on the roof of the rooftop building, gradually losing the topic, or falling asleep with their guns, or staring at the stars in a daze.

As for where the zombies on the rooftop went, Li Shunhe had always kept it in mind, so he asked the three people who stayed on the rooftop early in the morning.

Wang Xiang said that they vaguely heard a sound coming from the apartment opposite, and the zombies on the rooftop ran in that direction like crazy after hearing it, and then heard dozens of "bang bang" muffled sounds downstairs, which should be those zombies jumping off the building.

Li Shunhe was a little speechless, it turned out that these zombies were stupid, and they actually jumped off the building, if it weren't for the large number of people and the speed, who would be afraid of them.

Thinking like this in his heart, he was much bolder, Li Shunhe had the courage to touch the edge of the rooftop by the moonlight, and when he looked down, he saw a few zombies falling downstairs, black and connected.

Just as he was about to leave the edge of the rooftop, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure shaking at the corner outside the courtyard gate of the costume building, but it didn't look like a zombie wandering aimlessly.

When the figure approached, he saw clearly that the person walking in the front was a woman dressed in black, followed by a little girl.

The little girl was followed by a black dog.

……

Qiao Xin'er rarely walked at night, especially on a quiet street like today.

The empty city is no longer bustling and bustling, and some are just dead silent.

The street lights are not on, but fortunately the stars and the moon can be seen tonight, there is not much obstacle to walking by the moonlight, occasionally the night breeze blows, the air is very fresh, but you can still smell a smell of blood.

Qiao Xin'er was a little stunned in her heart, but looking at the graceful but cool black back in front of her, she felt very relieved.

Along the way, there have been no less than 100 zombies encountered, some wandering alone, and some gathering in groups.

Every time they met, the black figure would always take her into some hidden places as quickly as a prophet, and when the zombies left, they swaggered out again.

She doesn't know how she does it, it's like she's playing Honor of Kings, hiding in the wilderness and always knowing when an enemy hero will pop up.

Of course, luck wasn't always there, and there were a few times along the way when there was really nowhere to hide, so the sword on the back of the black figure was unsheathed.

Before I could see clearly, the heads of the zombies fell off.

The scene of seeing people's heads falling to the ground for the first time was not very funny, so frightened that she almost screamed, but fortunately, Chenxi told her in advance that she was going to cut off their heads, and if she watched them a few more times, she would not be afraid.

So, she covered her mouth.

……

Xiao Hei is very obedient, especially listening to Chenxi's words, and he can't understand why.

As soon as the dust stream moves, it moves, the dust stream stops, it stops, the dust stream hides, it hides, and it will definitely not make a sound easily.

But it was still curious why she couldn't hear her footsteps right in front of her, as if she had stepped on cotton.

Along the way, it saw a lot of strange humans, and they would make sounds like they would only make when they were angry, and occasionally those strange people would meet a few normal humans, and then they would chase after them desperately.

Catch it, then eat it.

Looking at the way they eat, it seems to taste pretty good.

The blood of the strange people who were cut off by the woman was black, and the meat smelled rancid, and it didn't look like it was as good as fresh pork, and it didn't smell like it smelled a little worse, so I don't know how it tasted.

It's wondering if it's going to try it for itself.

If she agrees.
