166 A young man here
The boy in front of Zhao Xinghua was so frightened that he trembled and choked up, and he couldn't help but think that he was still a child. Just as he wanted to comfort him, the boy continued:
"We have no place to escape now, there will be more than an hour before it will be dark, don't wait for the sun to set, as long as the sunlight outside is not very strong, those zombies will come out, and when it gets dark, there are a lot of S-type zombies around here, they are all attacking in groups, and they are getting smarter and smarter, ordinary glass windows can no longer stop them. My mom and I kept quiet here all the time, just for fear of attracting their attention. Even though humans snatched food from each other, they all tacitly kept quiet. I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect my mother. ”
Saying this, the boy couldn't help but cry.
Liang Hanba and Jiaojiao just led the horse over, Jiaojiao didn't know why, and when she saw a child of the same age as her crying, she smiled and said:
"Don't be afraid, my sister will help you deal with those zombies."
"You know what! It's all because of you! ”
The boy yelled at Jiaojiao's words.
Zhao Xinghua stopped Jiaojiao, who was about to snatch back, and said:
"Since it started because of us, we will take responsibility for it to the end. We won't leave without helping you get the trouble out. ”
The boy did not continue to lose his mind in a negative mood, and forced himself to calm down:
"You lead the horse to the garage on the side, and I'll go upstairs to pick up my mother, and hopefully we'll stay there for the night, and we'll think of where we can go tomorrow."
Zhao Xinghua saw that the boy was like an adult again, able to make arrangements in an orderly manner, and began to appreciate this boy in his heart, if he could, he would take their mother and son to find a safe place and help them resettle, after all, it was because of them that they were exposed.
A few minutes later, the boy and a woman climbed out of the window, presumably blocking the door of the building to prevent the zombies from attacking.
That woman was the figure they saw at the window on the second floor, about thirty years old, very thin, her face was very pale because she had been indoors all the year round, and her clothes had not been washed for a long time because of lack of water.
The woman looked at the three people in front of her, her expression was a little cramped, and said:
"It's been a long time since we've had a guest in our house, so we didn't have time to stop Ding Dang from shooting an arrow at you, thanks to not hurting you."
"It's okay, the little guy has good marksmanship, and he's better than many adults."
Zhao Xinghua hurriedly complimented.
"Your name is Jingle Bell? Hee-hee. ”
Jiaojiao naturally won't let go of the opportunity to ridicule the boy in front of her.
The boy named Ding Dang glanced at his mother complainingly, but did not reply. His parents gave him such a name, and he was often joked about by his classmates back then.
Several people hurriedly tidied up the garage, which is a large workshop built with a brick frame, which was originally used as a workshop for car repair, and the doors and windows were nailed to the formwork before, and some windows were sealed with iron sheets. There was also a Toyota Camry parked in a trench, waiting to be overhauled, but all four tires were already suffocating.
Zhao Xinghua saw more than a dozen iron crossbows in Ding Dang's hands here, but some of them have been damaged, and there is a large wooden board hanging on the wall at the end of the nearly 20-meter-long workshop, on which a ring is painted with black waste engine oil, and the wooden board is densely covered with holes, which I think Ding Dang usually uses to practice iron crossbows.
Ding Dang pulled out a wooden box from a corner, and Zhao Xinghua walked over to see that the entire box inside was full of polished iron bars, and each front end was sharpened into sharp and acute angles.
Liang Hanba placed the three war horses, and also wandered around the workshop, and saw a wooden cover on the ground, and opened it to see that it was a cellar. Ding Dang's mother walked up to him and said:
"Thanks to the fact that we used to store some potatoes, sweet potatoes and a few bags of grain here. Ding Dang sometimes sneaks out while I'm not paying attention, steals some things from the nearby supermarket and comes back, I ask him to write them down, how many things he takes, hey, if we can go back to the old days, we will pay them back, I really hope to go back to the old days. ”
"I'm afraid, when the zombies are wiped out, our lives will only be better than before."
Zhao Xinghua heard Ding Dang's mother's words on the side and interjected.
These words are not words of comfort, but the true thoughts of Zhao Xinghua's heart, after the end of the world, animals and plants are evolving, even ordinary survivors, the physique of the body is much better than before, living in this precarious, often hungry environment, the number of sick humans is very small. At the same time, it is also foreseeable that the life expectancy of humans and animals is increasing, there is less pollution in the air, there are no additives in food, and there is no longer the indiscriminate use of antibiotics, etc., and the impurities that were polluted in the human body will be discharged through metabolism, and it may no longer be a problem to live to 100 years old in the future.
Ding Dang ran back to the building two or three times alone, bringing back some food and daily necessities respectively, once the S-type zombies were detected here, every time the night fell, there would be groups of zombies coming, and it was impossible to hold on for a long time.
It was finally dark, and the five of them sat quietly in the dark garage building.
"Smack~!"
The sound of glass shattering was unusually sudden in the silence of the night.
"Here we are."
Zhao Xinghua stood up and walked with the little boy to a window and looked out.
On the wall of the building, several dark shadows were crawling quickly, each looking for an entrance, and one of the windows was broken, and the curtains were torn outside and rattled by the cold wind. Depending on the situation, there should be zombies entering from there.
There were a few more S-shaped zombies on the courtyard wall, presumably another group of people who had come from elsewhere to join the foraging journey.
"Wow~!"
"Wow~!"
……
The sound of the second and third pieces of glass being shattered rang out one after another, and more and more zombies entered the building.
Zhao Xinghua and the two observed for a while in the window crack of the garage, thinking that these zombies would take the initiative to leave if they did not find their target, and the iron door at the door "Bang!" Knocked down by something, a D-type zombie more than three meters tall also joined in, compared to the skinny S-type zombies crawling on all fours on the ground, this tall D-type zombie was like a titan giant.
The zombie walked straight towards the building that was rummaged by the S-shaped zombie and made a sound, because the door of the building was blocked from the inside, the zombie didn't know how to work, and began to hit continuously continuously, making a "bang~!" "Bang~!" A loud noise, heard far away in the quiet night.
Zhao Xinghua secretly said that it is not good, if this continues, more and more zombies will be attracted, even if it is dawn, it will stay around, and it will be troublesome to kill it at that time, maybe the yard will be full of these rotten things. If this D-type zombie enters the building and doesn't find the target, it will come to the garage and hit it, this kind of frame-like building, not to mention the iron door, even the wall can't withstand his few hits.
Thinking of this, he turned around and whispered to Liang Hanba and Jiaojiao:
"It's not going to go on like this, I'll lure them away while there aren't many of them."
Liang Hanba and Jiaojiao nodded, the two of them were accustomed to this kind of life-and-death decision at a critical time, and they did not show the demeanor of love and reluctance of children. This made Ding Dang on the side look at it in his eyes, and felt that several people were very calm and tacit, and they were very envious of their trust in each other.
Ding Dang pointed to a window behind him and said, "You can come out of the back window on the left, just lift the iron plate, if you can't beat them, you can run away." ”
"Don't worry, this is not the first time this kind of scene, and there will be no problems."
Zhao Xinghua comforted.
"Captain, if you really can't win, try to run around here, and be safe within ten meters."
Liang Hanba reminded.
"I'll see you."
