Chapter 45: Faith
In the apocalyptic environment, the time when night comes is the most dangerous. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Creatures in the wild inhabit their nests, and animals are sensitive by nature and will not go out when they feel danger.
Although the mobility of zombies can be affected in some way, the darkness is the hunting ground for the killer hunters in the dark, such as corpse dogs and cats, as well as other creatures that prefer to move in the dark.
Corpse cats and dogs tend to wander around populated villages or cities, looking for the breath of the surviving, so they sneak up in the dark, biting off their necks and eating flesh essence, which is very ferocious.
The night is also the hardest time for the surviving humans.
Every night, Xu Shenzhou continued to repeat the cycle of killing and fighting in his sleep, suffering from the torment and torture of that nightmare.
There was never a sign of a living corpse in his nightmares, and his enemies were all powerful mutated creatures and blue-skinned mutants who had evolved many times.
He still repeats the endless cycle of nightmares of battle and death.
In his nightmares, he never won a single victory, and he would continue to repeat those horrific experiences from many different angles after he came back from the dead.
He longs for victory, but is strangled by the enemy in various ways and in different situations and environments again and again.
This time, though, the nightmare recurs for a shorter period of time.
After waking up from the dream, I saw that the sky was still dark outside the window, and I raised my hand to look at the time of my watch, and it was only 3:20 in the morning.
Without the feeling of sleepiness, Xu Shenzhou got up and wiped away the cold sweat stains all over his body.
did not alarm Zheng Xinwei and Tan Yinghe, who were sleeping very heavily next to them, and Ling Susu, who was sleeping on the floor under the bed and also sleeping sweetly, went out of the room, and there were also people sleeping everywhere outside.
When he arrived in the living room, Xu Shenzhou originally planned to stand guard instead of the people on duty, but his ears were sensitive, and he faintly heard a suppressed crying voice.
The voice was very quiet, as if it was afraid of affecting others who were resting, and deliberately suppressed it.
When I walked to the window in the corner of the living room, I saw a figure curled up in a dark corner, his body almost shrunk into a ball, his head buried deep in the crook of his legs, looking lonely and sentimental.
Xu Shenzhou walked up, and the figure in the darkness didn't seem to notice.
Looking closely, the person who was secretly crying was a man, it was He Mingming.
Xu Shenzhou was very surprised, and said in a low voice: "What's wrong with you?" ā
He Mingliang was shocked, he raised his head to wipe away his tears, and said strongly: "It's okay!" ā
Xu Shenzhou guessed that something must be wrong, so he sat next to He Mingliang and said in a low voice: "If you have anything on your mind, confide or vent it, don't suppress it in your heart, it will only make you weak!" ā
He Mingliang hesitated for a while before he said: "Brother Xu, I saw my third sister outside in the evening, she, she became a zombie, I watched her head cut off with my own eyes, but I couldn't do anything, I could only go quietly at night to find her body and bury her."
Seeing Yue Dongsheng's family together at night, I wanted to go back to my hometown to see if my family was still alive, but I didn't dare to go back at such a close distance, I didn't have the courage to face this, was I too cowardly, too useless? ā
Xu Shenzhou thought about his parents and family, and sighed: "When the end comes, when we are concerned about our family, they are not also concerned about our safety, we hope that they can survive, they will not have such expectations, this is the continuous family, love and friendship in human nature, you have always had these beliefs, erect it, he will have the motivation and courage to let you live to face difficulties and challenges, to achieve and achieve this belief!" ā
"I don't know how to enlighten people, saying that these are suspected of pouring chicken soup for the soul, I guess you know, but for myself, I was still cowardly and cowardly, and I was at a loss, and when the end came, I felt that I had to establish a belief in myself to be strong and live, and to have the courage to find and fight.
I left Ningcheng all the way here, passing through all kinds of dangers, and it was precisely because of the belief of family affection that I was inspired to summon up the courage to go out and face challenges.
Actually, I don't have to do this, I can hide in Xiangshan and live a good life, but if I want to become stronger, I can't shrink up, I can only force myself to go out and take risks and fight.
Every powerful person will have an obsession in his heart, whether it is righteous or evil, I myself understand him as faith! ā
He Mingliang was silent for a while before he said, "Thank you, I understand!" ā
Xu Shenzhou thought of something and said, "By the way, just now you said that you saw your third sister, she is from this village?" ā
He Mingliang shook his head: "My hometown is in Guanbei Town, she married to Lianhua Town, she was very poor at the beginning, and her life was very hard, and then after she and my brother-in-law ran a medicinal herb wholesale store in Lianhua Town, life got better, the family of three was very harmonious, and this damn disaster ruined everything after it happened!" ā
Xu Shenzhou thought of his experience in Lotus Town, and said, "Where is that medicinal herb wholesale store located, and what is it called?" ā
He Mingliang was a little surprised, how could Xu Shenzhou ask this, he thought that Xu Shenzhou was deliberately looking for a topic to chat, and didn't let him think about anything else.
So he replied: "They are in the center of the town market, called Tansheng Medicinal Herbs Wholesale, and there is a supermarket store opposite......
When Xu Shenzhou heard this, his face changed slightly: "I remember that shop, when I hid on the roof of the house, I saw a family of three in the backyard turned into zombies, but they were all trapped in the yard, all the doors were locked, how did they come out and come to this Zhangjia Village?" ā
Speaking of this, Xu Shenzhou only felt a wave of uneasiness welling up in his heart.
He Mingliang saw that Xu Shenzhou's face was different, so he said, "What's wrong?" ā
"Quick, you go and call everyone up on alert, I'll go out and investigate!"
After speaking, Xu Shenzhou Huo Ran got up, picked up his weapon and walked out of the house, stepping on the ladder in front of the warehouse next to the main house to the roof.
In the early hours of the morning, looking into the distance by starlight, there was a conspicuous red light reflecting the sky, it should be firelight, the distance is relatively far, in the direction of Tunan County, but it can be seen from such a distance, indicating that the fire there is very large.
At the same time, Xu Shenzhou could also feel a fog around him, and the fog was bloody, which reminded him of the scene he encountered at the garbage station in Wanxian Industrial Zone.
Under the roof, Xu Shenzhou left the yard and ran to the vicinity of the road at the entrance of the village, and not far away, he saw a car abandoned there surrounded by zombies, and his face couldn't help but change.
It was a scrapped vehicle that could no longer be driven, and the sturdy cage of the car box was usable, and the zombies could not break it, and Hu Liangang and Yu Guoshan and others used the car to pull it over when they fled, mainly as a cage, so that they could collect women.
In the evening, they rushed back to Zhangjia Village, and after dealing with Yu Guoshan's four people, Wu Jianxun still did not kill the four people, but offered to put them in that cage and let them fend for themselves.
Even if they are lucky to escape, if they can't escape, God doesn't want them to live, but it can attract zombies, so that they have a chance to escape after being alerted.
At that time, Wu Jianxun said that the waste utilization was to let God decide their life and death, and let these damn scum help them play a role as a warning.
Now, the prisoner cart is surrounded by zombies, although there is no sound in the cage, but the zombies are still surrounded there, it is estimated that there is still a living breath in the cage to attract them.
Because it was night, there was no sound in the prison car, and the zombies only surrounded it, and did not slap the cage or smash the iron door too violently, just swayed around the cage.
Xu Shenzhou silently estimated the number of zombies, at first there were about forty or fifty of them, but then there were still many zombies wandering around and gathering, and the number was increasing.
Without making any noise, he quietly retreated, and Xu Shenzhou went to other places around the village to investigate.
Xu Shenzhou found a pattern, most of the zombies came from other nearby villages and towns, and most of the destinations were towards Tunan County, where he saw the firelight reflecting the sky on the roof.
Except for the prisoner cart on the road at the head of the village, which was surrounded by zombies, almost all the zombies from other directions were heading there, as if there was something there that attracted those zombies.
Now there are not so many to take care of, there are more and more zombies, and there will inevitably be blue-skinned mutants, the situation will only be more dangerous, and you must prepare early.
