Chapter 7: Jiang Chen's Changes
"Xiao Chen, do you know where the nearest gas station is here?" Considering that there is still a long distance from Anhuai City, Chen Yilong's first thought is to prepare fuel reserves.
"As for the gas station, there should still be some distance, Uncle Chen, I think we should go to a supermarket first!" Jiang Chen thought for a while and said.
"Yes, yes, we should go to the supermarket and find some food, drinking water." Li Fan also hurriedly agreed.
Chen Yilong also remembered that the food he had prepared before could only be eaten by him and Jiang Chen for a few days, but now that there was one more person, the edible time would definitely have to be greatly reduced.
Chen Yilong asked again where the nearest big supermarket was, and then the group of three drove towards the destination, as for the zombies behind, a few followed, and most of the rest were left far behind.
Hualian Shopping Mall is the largest shopping mall in this area of Jiangye City, with a total of six floors, the first floor is some shops selling clothing, the second floor is a leisure area, the third floor is a supermarket, and the fourth, fifth and sixth floors are inconsequential places.
Jiang Chen: Their target is the supermarket on the third floor.
At this time, in the supermarket on the third floor of Hualian, a group of people were carrying food, drinking water and other edible materials.
"Hurry up for Lao Tzu, or I'll throw you down and feed the zombies!" The one who spoke was a rough-looking middle-aged man, this middle-aged man's name was Xu Lei, and he was the security captain of this shopping mall before the zombie outbreak.
Originally, he was dissatisfied with his identity as a security captain, and he felt that he shouldn't just do such a menial job as a security guard, so over time, the dark side of his heart was magnified day by day.
Finally, after the zombie outbreak, Xu Lei saw the zombies running rampant, people hugging their heads and scurrying, at this moment, his ambition also exploded with the outbreak of zombies!
He has worked as a security guard for several years, and his physical fitness is much better than that of ordinary people, and there is a group of security guards under him who forcibly occupy the mall.
Every survivor who escapes in for refuge will be beaten up by him and others, in his words, this is called killing, beating them up, and letting them know who is the boss of the mall!
In less than a day after the zombie outbreak, the dark side of people's hearts has been magnified to such a large extent!
At this time, Xu Lei was directing the remaining survivors to carry the supplies in the supermarket, in his opinion, the third floor was still close to the ground, and the zombies could be killed at any time, so he planned to move all the materials to the sixth floor.
Rumble...
A roar came from the street outside into the supermarket on the third floor, although the sound was not very loud, but Xu Lei still heard the voice of the Hummer.
Suddenly, Xu Lei's mind became active, he didn't want to stay in this ghost supermarket all the time, in the absence of a source of materials, the materials in the supermarket would be eaten up soon, after all, there was still such a large group of people.
That's right, in Xu Lei's opinion, it is he who raises this group of people!
Xu Lei glanced at these people in disgust, and then hit the idea on the owner of the Humvee, if he could snatch this car, then he wouldn't have to be trapped in this hellish place.
He hurriedly ran downstairs to fool the owner of the Humvee in.
As soon as he arrived downstairs, Xu Lei was dumbfounded, where did he see that this thing in front of him was a Humvee, and this was obviously a zombie car.
Looking at the black blood and rotten flesh that still smelled of foul smell on the car, Xu Lei couldn't help but bend over and retch.
Bang!
Both doors opened at the same time, and the three of them stepped out of the car.
Jiang Chen got out of the car and looked at the retching Xu Lei, his face showed puzzlement, and he was about to open his mouth to ask, when a foul smell with a rotten smell suddenly rushed into Jiang Chen's mouth and nose.
Jiang Chen leaned down with lightning speed, and then vomited on the spot, as well as Li Fan who followed behind.
Stinking! A stench that can't be described in words!
Even Chen Yilong almost retched when he got out of the car and smelled the smell, but after Chen Yilong got out of the car, he immediately set his eyes on Xu Lei in front of him.
He looked at Xu Lei with a vague look in his eyes, and Xu Lei also reflected the purpose of his appearance.
"Hello, I'm the owner of this mall, if you don't mind, go to my mall and sit down." Xu Lei showed a kind smile and invited Jiang Chen and the others.
"This dare is good, Jiang Chen, let's go to the mall to have a look, originally we were here to find food, but now that the boss invites, it couldn't be better." Li Fan said with a big grin.
"It's... Uncle Chen, what do you think? Jiang Chen hesitated a little, looked at Chen Yilong and asked.
Xu Lei also followed Jiang Chen's gaze to Chen Yilong, and at this time he also understood that the person surnamed Chen who was in charge of the three people, as long as the surname Chen was done, everything else was easy to say.
Chen Yilong nodded, and then motioned for Xu Lei to lead the way.
Xu Lei was a little excited in his heart, but he still had some city government in the end, so he didn't show it, but forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, walked in front, and introduced the mall to the three of them.
Just as Xu Lei walked in front, a sneer appeared at the corner of Chen Yilong's mouth, the owner of the shopping mall? Hehe......
After a while, the four of them came to the supermarket on the third floor, Jiang Chen glanced around, and found that there were many survivors, but most of them were injured, which made Jiang Chen puzzled.
"These are the employees of the shopping mall, this doesn't happen to the zombie outbreak, so everyone spontaneously organizes fighting matches, so as to improve their actual combat ability, hehe, in the zombie-ridden world, if you don't have any actual combat ability, it can only be reduced to zombie rations!"
It seemed that he saw Jiang Chen's doubts, Xu Lei explained.
Li Fan showed a sudden expression, I see, this method is indeed quite good, and Jiang Chen has more doubts in his heart, but he behaves the same as Li Fan.
Xu Lei saw that Jiang Chen believed that it was true, and at the same time he was relieved in his heart, but he was also a little funny, what is a student boy, and he even believes such a lame reason.
Thinking about it, Xu Lei peeked at Chen Yilong and found that Chen Yilong was looking around, not paying attention to what had just happened at all, and he was even more certain in his heart.
"Come here." Xu Lei walked to the front and clapped his hands, "These three just came in from outside full of zombies, let's go get some food and entertain them." ”
Hearing this, the busy people stopped what they were doing and glanced at the three of them, some went to get food, and some continued to work.
Jiang Chen keenly noticed that some of these people looked at them with strange eyes.
There was pity, pity, and schadenfreude in those eyes!
Jiang Chen's heart was shocked, and the expression on his face became a little difficult to look at, but fortunately, Xu Lei at this time did not notice Jiang Chen when he patronized the plan after preparation.
However, Chen Yilong noticed Jiang Chen's expression and felt a little relieved.
Chen Yilong stepped forward and touched Jiang Chen's shoulder.
"Xiao Chen, this guy who claims to be the owner of the mall has a problem, pay attention to yourself, don't make a noise, I want to see what kind of tricks he wants to play!" Chen Yilong whispered to Jiang Chen, while he himself continued to observe the layout of the supermarket.
Jiang Chen's heart sank, and he nodded to show that he understood.
Xu Lei, who walked to the front, didn't notice the communication between Chen Yilong and Jiang Chen at all.
He turned his head and said enthusiastically: "The three of you are tired of riding in the car, go over there to have some drinks, eat something, and take a rest." ”
Xu Lei's enthusiasm and sincerity made Jiang Chen's previous suspicions about Xu Lei shake.
And Li Fan didn't think about it so much, shouting loudly that he wanted to eat chicken legs and drink Fanta, in his eyes, Xu Lei was a kind-hearted and enthusiastic boss.
Jiang Chen looked at Li Fan with an excited face a little speechless, and couldn't help but mourn for Li Fan for three seconds in his heart.
Soon, the food and drinks were picked up by the employees in Xu Lei's mouth, Li Fan couldn't wait to pick them up and eat them, but Jiang Chen and Chen Yilong didn't move the things they came.
"Why don't you eat it? I haven't eaten a meal since the zombie outbreak. Li Fan muttered as he stuffed food into his mouth.
"Then you can eat it all, we are not hungry." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"Oh, then you're welcome."
Li Fan swept away the food brought by him like a storm, and after half a sound, he patted his stomach and burped contentedly.
Xu Lei happened to come over at this time, he happened to see the scene where Li Fan was full of hiccups, and a smile appeared on his face, and then he saw only the residual food, and the smile on his face was even stronger.
"Have you eaten everything?" Xu Lei asked eagerly, and he had to confirm it one last time.
"Thank you boss for your hospitality, we had a good meal." It was Jiang Chen who answered him.
Hearing the answer he wanted, a smile overflowed on Xu Lei's face.
"After eating, let's go upstairs to rest, upstairs is the bed."
"Okay, I'm a little sleepy when I'm full." Li Fan replied.
"Okay, I'll take you up." Xu Lei almost laughed out loud, this is too cooperative.
Jiang Chen also wanted to laugh out loud at this time, Li Fan's hand could be said to have paralyzed Xu Lei by mistake, if it weren't for seeing Li Fan eat all the food defenselessly, Jiang Chen would have thought that Li Fan deliberately paralyzed Xu Lei.
At the same time, Jiang Chen sighed in his heart, not long after the zombies broke out, human nature had already begun to decline, Jiang Chen didn't dare to imagine how far human nature would be reduced in a few weeks or months.
In order to survive better in this deformed world, perhaps, I should change myself, and adapt to the world by myself, rather than waiting for the world to adapt to myself!
Jiang Chen's heart realized for the first time at this moment that he needed to re-understand the world, and his original perception of the world did not match the current world.
Now, Jiang Chen has truly accepted this dark, zombie-filled world.
What Jiang Chen didn't know was that when he began to recognize himself, the soul hunting system hidden in the depths of his mind also quietly underwent some kind of change.
"Jiang Chen, what are you still doing, come up and take a rest." Li Fan yawned and said to Jiang Chen, who was still standing in place, stunned.
"Oh, here it is." Jiang Chen waved his hand and followed.
The three of them went to the fourth floor under the leadership of Xu Lei.
