Chapter 36: A "Normal" Town

Without the army's food supply, the survivors frothed, cowering in the corner, staring at the group of soldiers.

Tang Rui changed his strategic approach and regained control of the army, which also rekindled the loyalty of the soldiers to him. He gathered everyone and held a meeting in the temple, at which everyone discussed, there were basically two ideas, one advocated going north and going to the Songshan base with Deng Jian; One advocates staying behind and waiting for news.

In the end, Tang Rui announced that the troops would stay in the temple for the time being, and when enough food was stored, everyone would go north again.

For the survivors, the food of the army is not supplied, for the internal soldiers, each person has a subsistence allowance of food every day, and the rest is on their own to find it, if it is a collective search, the food is in the public domain, and if it is found by a private person, then the food is individual.

After the meeting, Tang Rui invited Deng Jian and a few people into the living room, the major ordered to put a few bags of chocolates and strawberry cakes on the table, Li Yanbing's eyes lit up, the ghost and the other PLA soldiers were very calm, Deng Jian couldn't see his expression, sat there, and didn't talk much, he was waiting, waiting for Tang Rui to ask for a car.

Tang Rui glanced at Deng Jian, and saw that he was not moved by the food on the table, his heart sank, and finally said: "Comrade, I think you are a talent, why don't you join us." We have soldiers, weapons and food here. ”

Deng Jian shook his head: "I'm not interested in these. I know you've got a crush on my modded cars, and it's really best to search for food with them, and I don't want to join you, but I can work with you to find food......"

Tang Rui was silent, he originally wanted to win over Deng Jian, but it was obvious that the other party didn't look down on his troops. The major behind him was excited, the food is in a big city, there are zombies there, there are many dangers, if you want to search, you must have a modified car to open the road in front, when he heard that Deng Jian was unwilling to join, the major panicked, and at this moment he was excited to hear that Deng Jian was willing to go to find food together.

Tang Rui thought of another layer: "But how to distribute the food?" ”

"What he finds is his own, unless he wants to share it with others."

"Good!" Tang Rui was afraid that Deng Jian would charge more food on the grounds of modifying the car, and he was relieved at the moment.

After some discussion, they decided to go out and search for food. The group of survivors was still cowering in the corner, they didn't dare to go down the mountain to find food, Tang Rui said, there were game, wild vegetables, and wild fruits on the mountain, but the survivors were afraid that there were zombies around, so they didn't go down the mountain.

Deng Jian looked at the survivors expressionlessly, knowing in his heart that it would not be long before this group of survivors would descend the mountain, and at that time, his plan would be implemented.

Five minutes later, the modified vehicle and two military trucks drove out of the temple and headed down the mountain. Seven days ago, the troops had occupied the mountainous area, and a radius of 40 kilometers had been searched, where there were fewer people, more dense woods, not many zombies, and very little food to be found.

"Let's go to the city!" The major proposed, but Deng Jian shook his head: "There are many zombies in big cities, and the risk is very high, is there a small town nearby?" ”

"Yes, but it's more than fifty miles away, far away."

"Let's go there, then."

……

Military trucks led the way, and the army drove forward, and about an hour away, the convoy came to an unknown town.

It's just that when he stepped into the town, Deng Jian felt uncomfortable, and the air was dull, which made him very uncomfortable.

The car stopped at the gas station, Deng Jian jumped out of the car, and told the ghost to check if there was any gas, and as he walked around, he always felt that something was wrong.

He returned to the modified car, the ghost had already filled the car with fuel, the two trucks were also filled with fuel, and the gas station itself had a lot of oil reserves, which made Deng Jian puzzled, driving along the highway for three minutes is the center of the town, looking from the gas station, you can see four or five storey buildings, the teaching building of the middle school in the center is still ten stories high, and the gold-plated inscriptions on it are very clear: cultivation of virtue, erudition, truth-seeking, innovation.

At this scale, this town is also quite large, there should be a lot of people living there, and it is relatively prosperous, after the outbreak of the apocalypse, there will be no fugitives to grab gas? The staff lounge at the gas station was well kept, which made Deng Jian even more puzzled.

Everyone jumped into the car and entered the town, and everyone was on alert. Along the road in the center of the town, three cars drove forward slowly, and the modified car was in front, looking at the shops, supermarkets and commissaries on both sides, Deng Jian's face became more and more puzzled.

The town exudes an eerie atmosphere, with all the shops, supermarkets and kiosks destroyed, broken glass, broken door panels, doors and windows open, but surprisingly, the contents are intact!

Yes, the goods inside turned out to be as good as ever!

Neither the tools, nor the goods, were snatched away!

This has to be frightening, a huge town, there are no survivors? There is food here, why hasn't it been looted?

Everyone in the car couldn't hide their surprise, for the hungry, food was everything, and no one noticed that the town was too silent.

"Deng Jian, I always feel wrong, this is too abnormal." Li Yanbing was also vigilant, after all, she had been traveling south and north for so long, and her experience was no less than anyone present.

Everyone rushed into the supermarket and began to grab food, carrying bags out one by one, they saw Deng Jian squatting in the store, not knowing what he was doing, the major couldn't help but say: "Brother, what did you find?" Don't you come to pack food? While the zombies are not yet around, we must speed up the loading of food into the bag......"

Seeing that Deng Jian ignored him, the major shook his head, looking for himself and continued to collect food.

While loading bags of food into the car, the ghost shouted at Deng Jian, "General, what are you doing there?" What's wrong......"

Deng Jian didn't move, his face became heavier and heavier, there must be danger around here, and it was coming......

Suddenly, a piercing scream sounded in the silent sky, like a tiger roaring, and like a cat crying, the sound was unusually strange and painful.

When Deng Jian heard this, his face changed greatly, and the whole person froze there, and the faces of everyone behind him also changed greatly, and they shouted in panic: "What is it calling?" Where is it? ”

"Whoa."

"Who?" Deng Jian immediately picked up the gun in his hand.

"Look there!" A PLA soldier pointed to a rock.

Deng Jian immediately turned his head and found that a rock had cracked at some point, revealing several human bones inside.

Zerg! It must be the Zerg who did it!

"Whoa."

"Whoa."

In an instant, stones shattered everywhere, and soon, some large worms emerged from the stones.

At this time, Deng Jian found out that those broken were not stones at all, but the "auspicious clothes" made by these insects!

"Damn, you've been tricked!"
