On the street outside Tangcheng Middle School, not far away, two giant rats were gnawing on a corpse, they were extremely fast, and in a short time the whole corpse was gnawed into a skeleton with some broken flesh, and the broken clothes were almost strips of cloth, which had been stained dark red with blood.

After nibbling, the two giant rats looked up for a moment, then squeaked and burrowed into the ruins.

After a while, seeing that there was no movement, Zhou Che and Uncle Li, who were hiding behind a ruin, walked out cautiously and walked forward lightly.

After the two arranged things, they didn't delay the time, and went directly out of the school and walked to a gas station not far away.

There should be spare fuel in the school's underground generator room, but those are only used for emergencies, and the amount is not too large, so it is estimated that it will not last long, so Uncle Li decided to come out to find fuel.

Quietly glanced at Uncle Li next to him, holding a hammer in one hand, his slightly dark face was already full of wrinkles, although his face was calm, Zhou Che could also feel an urgency suppressed under that calm.

Suddenly, he felt a little guilty in his heart.

Originally, Uncle Li came to Tangcheng Middle School to find his son Li Zheng, but he became like this with a few words.

The most important thing is that he didn't expect that Uncle Li would temporarily suppress his thoughts about finding his son for the sake of his own people, and consider their problems first.

Although Uncle Li didn't show anything, this calmness made him feel a sense of depression and guilt even more...

I didn't seem to have thought about this before.

"Uncle Li, otherwise, let's go to Li Zheng first, the matter of fuel can be delayed for a while..."Zhou Che said with a slightly worried face.

Hearing Zhou Che speak, Uncle Li paused, and the calmness on his face finally couldn't be maintained, and there were some waves, and his brows were also wrinkled.

Li Zheng is his son, as a father, he has been here for a few days, and it is impossible to say that he is not worried about him, but after calming down for a while, he also understands that if he goes to Li Zheng alone, it is too difficult to find it in the current situation of the school.

In the past few days, Li Zheng has not come to the commissary, if he is still alive, the possibility of being in school is not great, he only relies on him to find it alone, I don't know when to find it, it is basically like looking for a needle in a haystack, no matter how urgent it is, the best way at present is to deal with the team's affairs first, and then search collectively, with the help of the team's strength, then maybe the possibility of finding it will be greater.

So, he had no other choice!

It doesn't have much to do with Zhou Che...

"Whew..."Taking a deep breath, he didn't hesitate for long, Uncle Li shook his head, almost gritted his teeth and said: "Don't worry about this for now, I have my plans, the most important thing at the moment is to lay a solid foundation for us first, let's go!" ”

The team has just been established, and now the most important thing is to slowly restore some of the basic conditions of life, otherwise, they will establish this team, there is no point at all, and among these conditions, it seems that the easiest to recover, and it is also crucial, is lighting, and some other things, such as cleaning up the school ruins, are still difficult to carry out...

Seeing that Uncle Li had made a decision, Zhou Che didn't say anything anymore, but the guilt in his heart did not diminish at all, but became more and more uncomfortable.

If Li Zheng is still alive and something happens this afternoon, isn't that what killed him?!

Alas...

With a light sigh in his heart, he didn't think much about it anymore, settled down, and continued to walk in the direction of the gas station.

A gas station closest to the school, Zhou Che is more familiar, and when he wanders outside the school, he often passes by there, but now the ruins are blocking the road, the road is not easy to walk, and he has to guard against giant rats, so the speed of the two is not very fast.

In fact, they don't know if the gas station has survived, but now that they don't know about it, they can only try their luck.

"Uncle Li, how should we get oil when we get to the gas station? I'm afraid that now the power in the entire Tang City has been cut off, and there is no electricity to refuel? Zhou Che looked at Uncle Li several times, and at this time, he finally couldn't help but say the doubts in his heart.

He was just a student, he didn't have any concept of cars and other things, and he didn't have any interest in it, so he naturally didn't know much about the situation at gas stations.

But he also knows that gas stations need electricity to refuel.

There may be some gas station god operations in some novels, but that's just fiction, in reality, limited by some factors, those operations are simply impossible...

For example, someone sucks the oil out with their mouth, it is impossible to think about it, the oil storage tank of the gas station, but buried deep in the ground, sucking the oil up, it sounds very handsome, but in fact, it is a fool...

But he doesn't think that Uncle Li is a fool, he doesn't know this, since he is here, he will definitely have his way.

"There are also generators at the gas station, and there are oil drums in the convenience store, don't worry, since you are here, it is impossible to go back empty-handed..."

"Hmm." Nodding, Zhou Che understood a little, turned his head to look, and was a little nervous in his heart.

"It's almost there."

The gas station is also a very empty place compared to other places, and I don't know if there will be giant rats there.

Uncle Li also nodded and did not speak again.

However, just when the faces of the two of them were slightly straight, and their hearts were becoming more and more vigilant, suddenly, Zhou Che's breath stagnated, looking at a bunch of objects not far ahead, and his footsteps stopped involuntarily, as did Uncle Li on the side.

"What's that?!" Zhou Che's pupils shrank suddenly, and he lowered his voice.

Uncle Li didn't speak, he looked at it intently, and his face changed suddenly: "It seems to be the corpse of a big mouse!"

"The corpse of a rat?!" Zhou Che was taken aback, after Uncle Li said this, and looked carefully, he finally recognized that it was indeed the corpse of a giant rat.

By now, Zhou Che also knew that if he wanted to kill this giant rat, gouging out his eyes was a way, but with the current speed and strength of this mutant rat, including their rough skin and thick flesh to resist blows, it was too difficult to kill.

But the giant rat in front of him looks like it has been split into two pieces from the middle of its body, and the broken place looks very flat, as if it was injured by some sharp weapon!

The head of this giant rat is not complete, but most of it has been eaten by something, and its two eyes are nowhere to be found.

Could it be that he was cut in two by someone, and after the zombie was able to move, it was eaten by other giant rats?

Cannibalism...

In the past, this situation may have rarely happened, but now Zhou Che doesn't think so, the world has changed, more and more strange things have appeared, and many things are no longer understandable to them.

In particular, the eyes of those giant rats are really strange, they seem to be their source of energy, and it is not impossible that they have a huge attraction to their own kind...

However, this situation is not as it supposed, but it is more likely...

Thinking of a situation, Zhou Che was shocked in his heart, looked at Uncle Li, his lips moved, and he was about to speak, but he found that Uncle Li also looked over and glanced at each other, and the eyes of the two of them were a little dignified!

Perhaps, there is a more reasonable explanation than what is cut off with a knife and cannibalism!

That is, in addition to the giant rat, there are other mutant species, and this species, even more powerful than the giant rat, can even easily kill it and feed on it!

"And monsters?! A monster more powerful than a giant rat?! ”

Thinking of this, Zhou Che's mind suddenly went blank, if this was really the case, then it would be countless times more difficult for them to survive!

The giant rats alone have already embarrassed them, what if those monsters that are more powerful than the giant rats appear?!

"Uncle Li..."Zhou Che spoke softly, and was about to say something, but Uncle Li immediately shook his head and motioned for him not to speak.

"Let's go." One word, simple and clear.

Zhou Che nodded, glanced at the corpse of the giant rat again, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and continued to walk in the direction of the gas station.

The distance was not far away, and soon, the two of them had already arrived in front of the gas station.

Sinopec, the scale is not small, but as they expected, there is no electricity!

But their luck was not bad, the entire gas station didn't seem to be too damaged, the equipment was intact and empty, and there was not a single living person or monster in sight, and the silence around them was a little scary.

Especially thinking of the corpse of the giant rat just now, Zhou Che felt that there was something more powerful monster staring at him, and before he knew it, he might have become the prey...

"Advanced convenience store, I'll go find a generator." After watching for a while, Uncle Li said in a low voice, and without waiting for Zhou Che to respond, he walked aside.

Zhou Che didn't follow, but nodded and walked towards the convenience store.

The door was not locked, and when he pushed open the glass door, there was a strong smell of blood, he couldn't help frowning, and turned his head to look, sure enough, two bloody corpses were scattered, lying on the ground twisted, and there were no giant rats around.

Just glanced at it, and there was not much fluctuation in his heart, and when he looked up, the shelves were filled with pure water and some ready-to-eat food to fill his stomach, but in this environment, it was impossible to make people have any appetite.

The food in the school commissary can last for a while, and he and Uncle Li came this time, first, not for food, and second, the two of them can't take much with them.

It's better to come back and move the food after a while, if you have the chance.

After one glance, he withdrew his gaze and looked elsewhere.

It's just that he didn't have the heart to observe, his heart was uneasy, and his mind was full of conjectures, conjectures about the corpse of the giant rat...

He felt that the corpse was not so simple!

But he couldn't think of an answer, he could only be uneasy...

It didn't take long for a slight roar to come, and the convenience store suddenly lit up, all the lights were turned on, and the equipment had been started normally.

Zhou Che came back to his senses and walked outside.
