Chapter Seventy-Four: Ruined County Town
Although it is said that going to the imperial capital is a flat river, it is just a metaphor.
Because there were seven more people on the way, it was naturally impossible to travel as fast as Su Yue and Hu Yifei.
In addition, Zhou Zhiruo fell ill under great compassion.
It greatly delayed the speed of Su Yue and others.
Stop and go along the way, Rao is like this, but he has only walked half a distance, and there is still more than half a distance from the imperial capital.
In this regard, Zhou Zhiruo was a little embarrassed.
Lying on the back of the mountain, he whispered to everyone: "I'm sorry, it's all because of me, dragging everyone down." ”
I secretly blamed myself in my heart, it was so useless.
Hearing this, everyone was immediately comforted, after all, they were only seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls, plus Lao Zhou was killed to protect them, and there was a trace of guilt for Zhou Zhiruo in their hearts, plus everyone went to the imperial capital, just to find a hope for themselves in their hearts.
A hope that will keep people from losing their sight in the last days.
Because if Zhou Zhi is sick with thoughts, it is not a medicine stone to cure the disease, but a treatment method that Su Yue knows will not be useful at all.
Hmmm-
A streamer appeared in front of me.
But Hu Yifei, who went to the front to investigate, came back.
After coming back, Hu Yifei smiled at everyone and said: "There is an abandoned county town in front, and when I looked at it from a distance, there were no people. ”
"I'm afraid I'm dead." Fluttershy says, hugging the baby.
"Definitely, you don't know the zombie army a few days ago, how many people can survive." Dashan replied with Zhou Zhiruo on his back.
When everyone thought of the zombie frenzy half a month ago, they still have lingering palpitations.
Su Yue, as their backbone, stood up at this moment and smiled lightly and said, "Anyway, let's go there and have a look first, these three little guys are afraid that they are hungry again." ”
After following everyone for half a month, Su has become more and more popular, and he is no longer as cold as before.
Everyone nodded their heads, and Hu Yifei looked at the three little guys hiding in their parents' arms with some amusement, touching them from time to time, and their faces were full of joy.
Half an hour later.
Su Yue and the others finally saw the abandoned county town in Hu Yifei's mouth.
Standing on the top of a hillside, everyone suddenly looked at each other.
"This is the county seat?" Xiao Zheng's daughter-in-law, Xiao Fen, said with some uncertainty after taking a look.
Dashan's daughter-in-law, Jiuyue, swallowed her saliva, glanced at the distance and said, "Are you sure this is not a mass grave." ”
In the distance, although the appearance of the county town can be vaguely seen, at this moment, the scene is miserable!
But in the county seat that stretches for dozens of kilometers, the smoke of gunpowder is filled, and the remnants of countless buildings are all over the streets.
Standing on the hillside, everyone saw no less than a hundred corpses, mixed with the beheaded zombies around them.
The blood had already dried up, and dozens of crows, croaking and falling on the corpse, pecked at one or two from time to time, and once again raised their heads and quacked in satisfaction.
It's like the tragic situation after being bombarded by enemy artillery.
Seeing this picture, there was a breeze blowing around them, and everyone suddenly felt their scalps tingle.
"Do you want to go in?"
Xiao Fen asked with a frown in her arms, feeling a little resistant to this county seat.
Everyone didn't answer, but looked at Su Yue who was standing in front of them.
Su Yue pondered for a moment, looked around and said, "Go to that ancient temple." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to a temple on a mountain not far from the county seat, which was half exposed outside.
The location of the temple is very good, and if it is level with the county seat, it will inevitably be flattened by the zombie army.
Everyone's eyes lit up and they all nodded.
Quack –
Su Yue opened the road in front, Hu Yifei cut off the road in the back, the woman walked in the space with the child in her arms, as for Dashan and Xiao Liu, they were on both sides, and as for Xiao Zheng, they were vigilant on one side, if there was an emergency there, he could support him at any time.
The small teams that survive in the last days are basically configured like this.
After all, there are women and children who have hope and a future.
The woman walking in the middle held the child in one hand and pinched her nose in the other, walking past the body that had been decomposing for a long time.
You can smell the rancid smell even if you pinch your nose.
I just felt a tumbling stomach and nausea.
The walls of the small shops in the county town were covered with blood that had long since dried, and it looked as if they had entered the set of a horror movie.
The silence around was incomparable, except for the strange cries of the crows standing on the corpses on both sides, and in this environment, it was a little more terrifying out of thin air.
Bang –
Su Yue was slightly startled and looked at the place where the sound occurred.
I saw that the half door hanging from the threshold swayed in the breeze, and finally fell to the ground, splashing a thin dust.
"Haha, it scared the hell out of me."
"yes, it almost scared my heart out of the beat."
"It's terrifying, let's go."
The woman in the middle urged.
After all, it takes a lot of courage to walk among the piles of corpses that rot like giants.
Su Yue, who was walking in front, also smiled, and then walked towards the foot of the ancient temple not far away.
Fortunately, there was no danger in the process of climbing, and everyone arrived safely.
The monastery is quaint, covered with decaying and undecaying leaves, and covers the entire monastery.
"Ahh
"What's wrong?"
Seeing his daughter-in-law Jiuyue exclaimed, Dashan hurriedly ran over and asked nervously.
Hisatsuki closed her eyes and pointed not far away.
Everyone looked.
But I saw a rotten human male lying on the threshold, the head with only half of the head facing outward, the hideous notch on the skull, and the eyeballs hanging under the eye sockets were so straight at Jiuyue.
No wonder Hisatsuki screamed loudly and covered her eyes.
"Anyone?"
Xiao Liu asked softly and suspiciously.
Su Yue shook his head.
He didn't sense the breath of a human in this monastery, and neither did a zombie.
"I'm sick to death."
Jiuyue showed a disgusted expression and said to the mountain, "You go and clean up." ”
Dashan smiled bitterly, and saw that everyone was looking at him, so he could only pick up a stick on the ground and walk towards it.
"Be careful!"
Su Yue's body suddenly moved, and he pulled the mountain that was close to the corpse back.
Say it's too late, then it's too fast.
But I saw a black shadow jumping out of the hole on the corpse's body, letting out a scream in the air, and rushing towards Su Yue and Dashan.
"Humph!"
Su Yue snorted coldly, and directly shot out with a palm.
Syllable!
The black shadow was directly bombarded against the walls of the temple, turning into a puddle of mud.
"It's ...... Monkey? ”
Dashan patted his chest, looked at the puddle of mud, and asked uncertainly.
Su Yue nodded and said, "Ghost monkeys, like to eat rotting corpses,"
"Ghost monkeys?"
Everyone was puzzled.
Su Yue smiled slightly, looked at the ghost monkey like mud and said, "It's similar to a zombie, except that one is a human and the other is a monkey." ”
Only then did everyone feel suddenly realized.
Subsequently.
Su Yue stroked the Suyun ring on his left hand, and with a flash of light, half of the bison's corpse fell.
The blood that flowed was still belching hot, as if it had killed this mountain-like bison in the last second.
Fluttershy and Kuzuki smile and run to the buffalo, find an ancient well, and bury the pot in the same place.
When the three little ones saw that they could eat beef again, they immediately turned in circles happily in place.
"I sorted out two okay meditation rooms, and everyone was wronged." Dashan walked out of a side room not far on the right, threw a large bag of garbage aside, clapped his hands and said to everyone.
Early the next morning.
Su Yue heard a panic and walked out of the room.
I saw Dashan anxiously saying to Su Yue: "The moon is gone." ”
"What?"
"How is that possible?"
Hu Yifei and Zhou Zhiruo behind him said in surprise.
