0081 zombies are coming
"Husband, Changfeng Honeycomb Coal Plant is not close to here! Wouldn't it be too dangerous to pass through several zombie colonies in the middle? After the winter, the zombies are a lot more active, and the radio also said that low temperature has little effect on zombies, and their skin modified by zombie viruses can effectively adapt to the low temperature environment. Now that it's snowy outside, you can't even see the road clearly, and it's very dangerous for you to go out rashly like this. ”
"Don't worry, wife, I'm going to go out in an infantry fighting vehicle this time. Although tired, an eight-wheeled infantry fighting vehicle will not sink into the snow so easily, and even the best off-road vehicle in this kind of weather will not be able to compete with an infantry fighting vehicle. ”
"Well, since we are driving infantry fighting vehicles, why don't we go together. I've been sleepy at home for a month, and I've wanted to go out for a walk. Jiajia was still not worried that Li Xiaoxin would go out alone, so she decided to go out with him.
"But... But you're pregnant, and if something goes wrong, wouldn't it be bad? ”
"Husband, I'm almost three months pregnant, the fetal position is already stable, and nothing will happen. Besides, when you get to the Changfeng Honeycomb Coal Plant, you have to use a car to pull the honeycomb coal, and the three of us will drive the truck to follow your infantry fighting vehicle, otherwise how can you pull the honeycomb coal back. ”
"It's... This..."
"Okay, husband, don't go here or there, let's go, go early and come back early."
Li Xiaoxin set off with three women, he drove an infantry fighting vehicle to open the way in front, An Lihui drove a truck to follow, and Jia Jia and Mi Shuchang sat in the passenger seat. Although the number of two cars is small, the posture is sufficient. The machine guns on the infantry fighting vehicles and the anti-tank missiles suspended from the launchers make people feel that the guy driving the car is definitely not easy to mess with.
Changfeng Honeycomb Coal Plant is also located on the outskirts of Wucheng City, but it is completely different from the suburbs where the resort is located. One is in the southeast direction and the other is in the northeast direction, about fifty kilometers apart. If you count the detour and avoid the zombies, the actual single trip is nearly 100 kilometers.
The suburbs where Changfeng Honeycomb Coal Plant is located are far from the riverside, surrounded by well-developed traffic, close to national highways, and only two kilometers away from the nearest highway toll station. The factories in the pre-apocalyptic area were basically small polluting factories that had moved from the city, such as paper mills, printing houses, furniture factories, and so on. Although it is not a labor-intensive industrial zone, there are a lot of zombies in it, otherwise, Li Xiaoxin would not have driven an infantry fighting vehicle over.
Zombies in winter are dangerous, especially those hiding in snowdrifts, which are even more terrifying. You have no idea which snowdrift will have a zombie popping up from behind you, knocking you to the ground and biting you.
Zombies have no body temperature, they don't need to rely on the flow of blood to supply energy to all parts of the body, and their bodies are full of zombie viruses. After the zombie virus completely transforms the zombie's body, it directly relies on the zombie's brain to issue instructions, and directly controls the zombie's body to make various reactions through the conduction between viruses.
After the zombie virus transforms the skin of the zombie, both the toughness, strength and tolerance have been greatly improved. Basically, frostbite and freezing do not occur in low temperature environments. Even if they are buried in heavy snow, zombies will not die, but will only go into a dormant state.
Driving in a white expanse of snow is extremely dangerous, and the roads have long been covered by universities, with an average depth of about ten centimeters. National highways, provincial roads, and city roads can't be walked, in addition to being jammed with all kinds of vehicles, some are just zombies wandering in and around the car. So, you can only take some remote country roads.
Most of the rural roads are built in nearby towns and villages, and the planning and quality are not comparable to those of regular roads. Sharp turns, narrow, uphill and downhill, no guardrails, etc. are all common, and if it is a normal situation, Li Xiaoxin can easily deal with it. But after the road was covered with heavy snow, no matter how strong the infantry fighting vehicle was and how slow it was, he often felt powerless.
Coupled with some wrong operations while driving, less than ten kilometers after leaving the resort, Li Xiaoxin drove into the rice field twice, and almost overturned when turning a corner. Especially when the truck behind skiddled and Embry's sudden braking misoperation caused the truck to almost roll over into the ditch next to it, it had to attract Li Xiaoxin's attention.
"Alas... It seems that I am overestimating not only our driving skills, but also the conditions of these township roads, and the dangers of driving in the snow. Forget it, wife, let's go back, it's only been less than ten kilometers now, and we are still familiar with this part of the road, and it's already dangerous. If we drive further, I estimate that not only will we not be able to reach the Changfeng Honeycomb Coal Plant, but we will also have car accidents and even casualties, which is not my intention. ”
"Well, I also think it's better to turn around and go back before something happens. We can't see where the road is, where the ditch is, let alone the sharp turns and obstacles. Sitting in the car, my heart trembled, for fear that the car would fall into a ditch or drive under the roadbed. Jiajia was obviously frightened by Li Xiaoxin's previous dangers, and said worriedly.
"Yes, uncle, my mother's driving skills are also very good, but she herself said that she didn't dare to drive this small truck. When I turned the corner just now, I just pressed the brakes a little deeper, and the car almost flipped over. If it weren't for the slow speed, we would have all rolled over into the rice paddies below, and she was scared to death. ”
"I also think we should go back, now is really not the time to go out by car, the road is not clear, the car is skidding, the road conditions are not good, in this case it is easy to have accidents." An Lihui was obviously frightened by the accident when she turned the corner just now, and her face was still pale and miserable.
After returning to the resort for lunch, the three women all went back to their rooms for a lunch break, while Li Xiaoxin walked out of the villa very depressed and walked aimlessly in the thick snow in the resort. Yes, Li Xiaoxin is very depressed, and no matter what he does recently, he has not been doing well. Put the water in the fish pond, and the fish pond is connected to the river next to it; I went out to look for oil, but I found more gasoline and not much diesel; Today I was going to pull some coal back, but I was blocked by heavy snow not far after I went out.
A series of unhappiness made Li Xiaoxin very aggrieved, and he hadn't been to Xingyu Mansion to see his son for more than a month, which made him even more upset. Looking at the hazy sky and the falling snowflakes, he really couldn't find a place to vent, so he could only wander around the resort aimlessly.
Soon, Li Xiaoxin found a place to vent, and a zombie slowly appeared at the door of the reception hall not far away, and soon a second and a third appeared... The Nth one. He was a little dumbfounded, what was the situation, why were so many zombies entering the resort along the winding mountain road.
Looking at the black press, there were no less than a thousand zombies, "It's not good, the zombies are coming." Li Xiaoxin hurriedly ran to Villa No. 1.
