Section 137 Intermission

There were a lot of chasers behind him. Luo Kuan took advantage of this opportunity to turn around and take a look, and found that among those monsters were not only young men and women, but also old people and children.

Yes, indeed children.

They moved more slowly than the adults, dragging themselves behind the entire group and staggering along.

Nima's, I don't know any of these people.

But now, they are chasing after me desperately, like devout worshippers who are frantically chasing after the gods in their minds.

Luckily, I'm faster than them.

Gradually, Luo Kuan distanced himself from the group of terrifying pursuers behind him.

He kept running in the direction of the city.

Years of physical training have shown their results at this time. If it is an ordinary person, I am afraid that I am already out of breath and even find it difficult to walk.

I have to live.

I can live.

Luo Kuan firmly believes this.

……

According to Liu Tianming's instructions, Qi Yuanchang drove the car downstairs directly.

There were no lights in the whole neighborhood, and there was a deathly silence everywhere.

A Beijing jeep slammed across the road onto the sidewalk of the neighborhood, with the driver's head embedded in the shattered windshield. Sharp splinters were inserted into the skull, killing them instantly. In the bright moonlight, a dark shadow writhed between the front of the car and the wall. Liu Tianming carried a machete, turned on the lighting function of his mobile phone and walked over, and found that it was his acquaintance, Zhang Zhiqiang, a mutated community security guard.

Silently staring at the hideous Zhang Zhiqiang for a few seconds, Liu Tianming turned around and left.

Huang He and Qi Yuanchang quickly controlled the passage up and down the stairs.

There is no electricity, and the access control on the first floor is useless. Liu Tianming walked up to the third floor quickly, took out the key, opened the door lock, and several people got in as fast as they could.

The room was dark.

In the place in his memory, Liu Tianming touched the candle and lit it with a lighter. Suddenly, the whole room appeared with a light that represented safety.

Qi Yuanchang looked at the room with a scrutinizing gaze. Then, he walked back and forth from room to room. It was a long time before he put the assault rifle on the pile of cardboard boxes next to it. In the light of the candlelight, he saw the three printed words "luncheon meat" written on the surface of the cardboard box.

Liu Tianming used a tool knife to cut through the sealing tape of several boxes and took out different types of cans.

Zheng Xiaoyue is very familiar with this place. With the help of Huang He, they brought out several square iron buckets from the back room and used knives to cut through the thin sealing sheets, revealing neatly stacked compressed biscuits.

There is water, there is meat. Although it is not possible to make a fire to cook and get some hot food, people feel that it is enough. Especially after a day of hunger, even the worst food seems to them to be the best thing to eat.

The Yellow River was hungry enough. He finished off two compressed biscuits in one go, and stuffed a piece of braised beef into his stomach. Looking at the bottle and drinking the remaining half of the mineral water, he got up from the cardboard box and let out a long exhale.

After eating and drinking, Huang He had the heart to look at this room and the mountains of various materials.

Candles, raisins, beef jerky, salt, canned food, water......

The Yellow River swirled back and forth from room to room, his mouth constantly exclaiming.

"Oh my God, how did you get so many cans!"

"Look at these, raisins, canned fruit, webs. So much, how much did you really spend? ”

Liu Tianming used a knife to cut out a piece of luncheon meat from the canned food box, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it slowly, and said lightly: "I can't remember the specific amount." There are always hundreds of thousands. ”

Huang He touched the thick beard on his chin and was a little surprised: "Where do you have so much money?" ”

Liu Tianming's answer was very brief: "Borrowed." ”

Huang He was surprised by this answer: "How did you think of borrowing so much money?" Also, bought so many things at once? ”

Liu Tianming swallowed the piece of meat in his mouth, smiled, and did not answer positively: "Fortunately, it was borrowed, and now I don't have to pay it back." ”

Zhou Yuan, who was sitting next to him, unbuttoned his body armor and made himself more relaxed. Curious, he asked, "How did you come up with the idea to do something?" Could it be that you are also the kind of doomsday theorist that you say on the Internet? I remember that there were many such people abroad, who spent a lot of money to dig underground shelters in their yards and then buy all kinds of food and necessities in large quantities. Well, didn't there be a report some time ago, it seems that it was Britain or somewhere, a rich man thought that a nuclear war would break out on the earth more than 20 years ago, so he spent all his family property to build a basement. As a result, he stayed inside for several years and came out, and found that the outside was still the same as before, and nothing had changed. ”

Qi Yuanchang slowly ate the canned food in his hand without saying a word.

The Yellow River feels very new here. He sat down next to Liu Tianming and said excitedly, "Boy, it's good that you got such a place." Otherwise, we really don't have anywhere to go tonight. By the way, did you know that this kind of thing was going to happen, and you started to deal with it in advance? ”

When he said the last sentence, Huang He himself found a problem. His face changed suddenly, and he looked at Liu Tianming, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.

Zhang Weili and Zhou Yuan also stopped their respective movements and looked at Liu Tianming with worried and doubtful eyes.

Li Jiexin's legs curled up under the wide hospital gown, staying there motionless.

Zheng Xiaoyue struggled to control her emotions, and her right hand clenched the Gurkha knife placed on the cardboard box next to her. No matter if anyone made a move that was unfavorable to Liu Tianming, she would not hesitate to pick up the knife and split that person's head.

Liu Tianming's expression was very calm. He cut another piece of meat out of the canning box, put it in his mouth, and as he ate it, he said, "I do know something." I certainly don't know as much as you do, though. ”

His gaze fell on Qi Yuanchang.

Qi Yuanchang's body stiffened, and a complex emotion spread along Liu Tianming's gaze and gradually spread in his body. Qi Yuanchang raised his head and looked at Liu Tianming, who was sitting opposite: "If I guessed correctly, the case of Fu'an Chicken Farm should have been done by you." Wu Jian's death should also be related to you. ”

Liu Tianming's black crystal eyes stared at him: "If I say no, do you believe it?" ”

Qi Yuanchang picked up the mineral water placed at his feet, shook the bottle, and looked at the rippling ripples inside: "So, how do you explain that you will make such preparations in advance?" Don't tell me you're some hell of a doomsday theorist too. The amount of these supplies is enough for those of us to consume for several months. What's more, as you said just now, it's borrowed money. ”

Very few people were able to look at Qi Yuanchang under such a majestic and sharp gaze. However, Liu Tianming is obviously one of them. His voice and expression did not change in the slightest, as if he was telling a bland story.

"More than a month ago, we found out about the existence of the virus. Wu Jian and I were both infected. Speaking of which, you also know about this matter. ”

Huang He was surprised: "Me? How did you get me involved? ”

Liu Tianming smiled: "Do you remember the patient I asked you to help me find?" ”

Huang He nodded: "Of course I remember." ”

"He's the source of the infection."

Liu Tianming's voice was still calm: "Wu Jian and I were infected by his blood in the ambulance. I noticed that my body had changed, and I wanted to ask Wu Jian if he had any paresthesias. But I couldn't find him, and the next day Captain Qi came to the hospital and told me that Wu Jian was dead. Later, I found out in the hospital that there was another doctor who was also infected by that patient. That's pretty much what it was like that......"

Liu Tianming did not hide it at all, and told everything he knew.

Of course, there are also several important key points that are omitted.

For example, the causes of death of Wu Jian and Wang Fushou have nothing to do with themselves.

In addition, mutant infections form predatory relationships with each other to obtain biological nutrients from them.

escaped all the way from the hospital, Liu Tianming had already thought very clearly.

The city is full of death and is full of mutated walking corpses. It is difficult to survive just by relying on himself and Zheng Xiaoyue. More people are needed to help themselves, and other survivors need to be found in order to cope with the difficulties ahead.

To achieve this goal, it is necessary to dispel the suspicions of Qi Yuanchang and others.

Anyway, the social order has collapsed, and he refuses to admit that he has killed people. As long as this principle is firmly grasped, even the police cannot convict themselves.

With just a few knives, it can't deal with the overwhelming mass of corpses.

If you can get Qi Yuanchang's help and his approval, you can get a weapon.

Therefore, Liu Tianming did not hesitate to expose his secret and brought Qi Yuanchang and others to his residence.

Liu Tianming's story is very long, and it took more than half an hour to finish speaking. In the end, he looked at Qi Yuanchang with a blazing gaze, and said seriously: "Captain Qi, judging from the current situation, the source of infection should not only be that patient. The city became like this in almost half a day. There is more than one flashpoint for viral infection, and there are many. ”

Qi Yuanchang has been carefully observing Liu Tianming's mood changes.

His eyes were clear, and his gaze was full of calmness. Whether it was in the car or walking into this room before, Liu Tianming's performance couldn't be faulted.

Yes, he does know something.

However, as far as the virus infection itself is concerned, he doesn't really know much. Qi Yuanchang has read the information transmitted by wire from abroad and other provinces, which also mentions the symptoms of infection that are blackened. It can be inferred that the city had a source of infection a long time ago. It's just that the incubation period of the virus is indefinite, so it is not detected in time.

If Liu Tianming was deliberately spreading the virus in the city, how could he still stay here? It is human nature to seek good fortune and avoid evil, even if you are arrogant enough to destroy the earth with a nuclear bomb, you will build a shelter for yourself in advance and spend the rest of your life safely and happily.
