Chapter 16: The Corpse Shed (I)
The four of us lay on the roof of the shed, and we didn't dare to come out. The campus is finally quiet again, but it seems that the madness is only hidden for a short time, waiting for people to take a bite when they are most unprepared.
I pulled forward with my flashlight, hoping to see our destination cafeteria, but the beam was swallowed up by darkness halfway through and disappeared into the night sky. I shone the flashlight on Xiao Lin again, I wanted to confirm her safety, but I didn't expect a pair of white long legs to come into view again. Xiao Lin hurriedly pressed the hem of her skirt with her hand, and said angrily: "Senior! ”
Suddenly, there was a low roar from below, and Xiao Lin immediately covered her mouth and didn't dare to make a sound. But then the hem of her skirt was open again. I looked away in embarrassment and moved my body to crawl forward.
"I'll take the lead!" I whispered as I passed her, and crawled forward. To move on the canopy, it is necessary to crawl on all fours, so that the weight is as uniform as possible and the risk of stepping on the roof of the canopy is reduced.
At this moment, we are separated from the zombies in the shed by a thin layer of plastic sheets, and their breathing, moaning, and the friction of their clothes are clearly audible, as if the demons are whispering next to you.
I deliberately slowed my movements, but even so, the flimsy plastic shed made a terrible gurgling sound. Probably attracted by the sound, the sound of thousands of nails rubbing against the roof of the shed came from below, and it felt like countless nails were scratching my belly. I looked at Xiao Lin in the back, and she smiled stiffly, probably quite uncomfortable.
Occasional lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating the entire campus, and I could see the dead loitering along the school road. It often takes more than ten seconds for the thunder to arrive, resounding through the clouds, making people feel deeply lonely and afraid.
I don't know how far I've climbed, but I guess I'm almost there, right? So I used a flashlight to shine in front again, but I still couldn't see the end, and I turned back to shine behind it, and it was also pitch black. I suddenly snorted, what if I couldn't get to the other side like this? We seem to be in a bottomless black hole, with no village in front of the village and no store in the back, wandering endlessly in this terrifying abyss.
Suddenly, there was a coolness in the back of the head. I touched it with my hand, it was water! Immediately afterward, splashes began to bloom in front of me, left and right, and the canopy made a splash. I could feel the commotion beneath the shed, and the whole canopy suddenly shook like a fishing boat trembling in the stormy seas.
It's really not as good as the sky, it only rained when I set off, but now the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and it makes my back uncomfortable. The rain flooded my mouth, nose and eyes, and I managed to wipe it off with my hands, but it immediately flooded back.
The brutes were slapping harder and harder, and I felt like I was going to be tossed. Reflexively, I tried to prop myself up and keep walking.
But I didn't expect the canopy to become quite slippery, and as soon as my hand slipped, the whole person fell to the left, sliding down the semi-circular slope of the canopy, and I couldn't stop it.
- It's over, it's over, it's over!
I braced my hands forward desperately, hoping to brake the car, but in vain, my head was completely out of the eaves, and the scene in the canopy suddenly came into my eyes:
The dark corridor was crowded with the ragged dead, shoulder to shoulder, full of hideous faces, broken limbs, and rotting sores, all of which collectively raised their hands and screamed against the roof of the shed as if they were performing some mysterious religious ritual.
I was almost frightened and incontinent, and I struggled desperately, and in a moment, I caught a glimpse of the long iron pole that was used to support the canopy by the side of the corridor, and I clung to it in spite of it.
Most of my body had fallen to the eaves, and I was playing a certain movement on the horizontal bar, using my hands to maintain my balance. But before I had time to rejoice, I was about to suffocate again.
Coincidentally, my face almost touched the face of a zombie. It had a sore on its face and was crawling with maggots, and the maggots had all run to my face. I felt my stomach churn, blood flowed backwards, and life was worse than death.
I desperately told myself that I had bitten the neck of a living corpse, and that was nothing, but the more I thought about it, the more the horrors of the two were stacked together.
The only thing that was fortunate was that the deceased who had been in close contact with me didn't seem to notice me, perhaps because the rain had drowned out my smell, or perhaps most of its attention was drawn by the sound of the roof, and it only pressed its face to me in confusion, and I shuddered and threw my face back.
The corpse had a big mouth, and both cheeks were cracked, and the mouth was full of parasites or something. It suddenly blew a miasma at me, and there was a tearing sound in its throat. I've never smelled anything more impressive in my life, and I just want to get out of this purgatory as soon as possible.
"Senior, hurry up!" At this time, Xiao Lin behind me grabbed my feet and encouraged me. This move of hers is undoubtedly quite dangerous, and if I fall, it is likely to affect her.
After the corpse's roar, the zombies around him seemed to be targeting me, and I saw a pair of hands shaking and looking for me. In the midst of this unbearable crisis, I breathed a sigh of relief, and reluctantly left the eaves, only to see several hands intertwined in the position I had just placed.
The heavy rain continued, and I was shaking all over, let alone moving on, it was a miracle that I didn't fall. In the heavy rain, I clung to my hard-won safety, as for how many meters did we advance? How far is it to reach my goal, the ghost cares about this, and at the moment I just want to keep kissing this life-saving canopy that has separated me from hell.
