Chapter 8: Surrounded by Corpses

A week later, the thunderstorm was released, our application to leave the base was approved, and the two cars were returned to us as well as the supplies in the cars.

When I got out of the outermost level, I saw that the mountain road was full of filthy and sticky black corpse liquid, but the corpses of the zombies had been burned and cleaned up, and there were small piles of wreckage everywhere, exuding a scorching smell.

We immediately retrieved the hidden Tiger SUV and all the guns and substances, followed the road signs to find the entrance to the expressway, struggled out of the abandoned car, and drove in the direction of Shijiazhuang.

The snow on the road is getting thinner, and even asphalt has been exposed in some places, and the temperature is still below freezing, but it doesn't feel so cold.

"Now I am completely dead to the capital," Canaan smiled bitterly while holding Shuai Shuai, "It seems that this imaginary perfect base is not as comfortable as the one hundred and eighty of us lived in the valley before." ”

"Each has its own pros and cons, and the base that has the final say and is free has to rely on itself to protect itself, and in a place like this, at least you don't have to worry about safety." He replied, he also sat in a car with us, and Nian Nian was separated for nearly half a month, he now hates to be with his daughter-in-law every minute, the boys in the south really love their wives and are warm enough, which the northern gentlemen also have to admit, although they call this a meat hemp.

"Wei Jin is right," Thunderstorm said in front, "Like in Changxing Island, there are not a few soldiers in total, all rely on the militia team composed of ordinary people to protect the island, to put it bluntly, it is not to protect themselves, the old people and children on the island are all pointing to the front line to fight and beat the corpses back." A place like the Nanhai base is actually suitable for those helpless old people, they don't have a lot of activity, and they don't need any freedom, and it is the greatest wish to have someone to protect them from eating and drinking, maybe it is much more at ease than following us two-way people. ”

"What do you mean by thunderstorm? Do you want to send the lonely old people and children on the island here? I asked him in surprise, "Besides, why don't old people need to be free?" Staying in the house every day, giving two hours a day to let off steam, it's like squatting in prison, and the old man won't like this kind of life, right? ”

"Sister, I don't mean that, I mean, like those old people who survived near the capital, women and children, they are blessed to be able to enter this base, isn't it better than letting them struggle to survive outside? Let's put ourselves in their shoes, if there are only two people left, you and Shuai Shuai, do you choose to take Shuai Shuai to enjoy freedom outside? Or is it so that he can survive and enter the base? Although you have to endure those rules and regulations, you have to force Shuai Shuai to follow the politics of early education. "Thunderstorm asked, I was speechless, and honestly admitted that if that's the case, then I must take the child into the base, not to mention that there are only two hours a day to let the wind out, even if it is not a minute, as long as the handsome can get rid of the horror of the outside world, I also admit it.

"Sister, we are still in the prime of life, and we have the ability to break through the world in this last days, and we also have the ability to protect ourselves and our families, but what about those old women who have no family? They follow us, at critical moments, they are the most vulnerable group of people, just take me, I only have two hands, if the corpses come up, if I can protect a person, it must be handsome, if I can protect a family, it must be my parents and you, no matter how much I can't take care of, then if there is a family of old people and children next to me, beyond my ability, I can only watch them die, this is not giving up, it is out of reach. So those families who lack strong protectors with strong combat effectiveness, they are actually the most suitable for this kind of impregnable garrison base, I mean this. "After the thunderstorm was finished, I took a closer look, and it was indeed reasonable.

I have long thought that two children can only save one, which mother can't save her own child? Therefore, the most pitiful thing in these last days is the orphans, widows, and old people who have lost their shelter.

Our strength is not small, we have been protecting a small group, but after all, we are a ragtag army, compared to the professional army, it is nothing, maybe the meaning of thunderstorms, if we can't save everyone, it is better to send some people who need security more than everything to the South China Sea base.

"Let's go south and see if we can find a place for everyone to pass." I said worriedly, I can't imagine that if we send familiar old people to a strange base, their eyes will feel abandoned by us, right? But have they ever thought about it, when the corpses are massively impacted, we really can't take care of everyone, and we really can't take care of ......

"Sister, I just gave you a psychological preparation in advance, knowing that you are soft-hearted, and I can't wait to save all the living people I see to my side, the old hen character. But you are not Superman, neither are we, and the responsible thing to do to the survivors is to give them a permanent safe haven, not temporarily. What the thunderstorm said, Canaan agreed.

"Duo'er, there are two of us in our family, just imagine, if there are no two of us, there are three old men and old ladies with handsome and handsome, can they live to this day? Maybe rely on a team, like us, but once a big crisis breaks out, who can treat them as their own parents and children to protect them desperately? Rather than that, I hope they can be sent to a shelter like the Nanhai base, at least, they will not be threatened with death, and they will grow up safely. Although the Nanhai base is a bit deformed in the education of children, it can also be seen that they attach importance to children, all the children who come to the base, there must be no problem in growing up, the big deal, when they grow up to become a die-hard warrior in power, they have practiced a body of combat martial arts, no matter who he is loyal to, as long as he lives, can live well, I am satisfied. ”

Hey, compared to men's rational thinking, I still can't avoid the kindness of women, but I am indeed like they say, I am not superhuman, and I can't be protective of everyone.

"If, well, I mean that if the base we are looking for is not so safe, we can tell the truth when we go back to Changxing Island, and let all the survivors choose for themselves," Thunderstorm continued, "Li Bin will definitely not leave Changxing Island, as soon as we withdraw, he will become the base leader, and he can use Changxing Island as the center point to implement his grand blueprint for recovering Dayang City, so the survivors on the island have three paths, first, stay on the island and mix with Li Bin, he has this protective ability, and second, follow us, but say in advance, when we get to the place, I don't dare to guarantee that it will be completely safe and permanently protected, we can only say that we will do our best, and third, we can send them to the South China Sea base first, which is the safest place, with strong strength and big leaders. Their path is up to them to choose, we don't have the right to decide, what do you say? ”

"Well, well, listen to you." I'm a little confused, but that's probably the best arrangement.

After two days and one night, we arrived in Xi'an.

The temperature has risen to more than ten degrees, we have taken off our down jackets and changed into ordinary clothes, and there are more zombies on the road.

In places with warm climates, the activity of zombies is also stronger, they haunt abandoned cars in twos and threes, often coming out of the cold and scaring people, thunderstorms I don't know how much they hit along the way, and the front face of a tiger off-road vehicle is buried.

"Don't tell Lao Zhu when you go back, don't let him feel distressed to death." Thunderstorm told us, "I don't want to be able to borrow anymore." ”

"Then you have to clean up before you go back, hey, this smells!" I sniffled, the temperature went up, and in order not to suffocate the car, I let the thunderstorm lower the windows on both sides by half, which would make the smell of corpses go straight into the car.

"It's not like you said you don't have to turn on the air conditioner if you save fuel." Thunderstorm shouted, "By the way, wouldn't it be nice for my brother-in-law to open the lid of the machine gun muzzle and ventilate the car?" ”

Canaan climbed up and opened the lid on the roof, and the air in the car was much fresher.

"I don't know what the situation is in Xi'an." Canaan looked at the many scrapped cars on the highway and was full of emotion.

"Oh!" Thunderstorm suddenly shouted, "There seems to be a crowd of corpses ahead, listen!" ”

We quickly listened calmly, but no, the characteristic whirring sound of the corpses came from behind the abandoned car in front, they should have noticed us, and the voice was a little manic.

"U-turn and retreat?" I hugged Shuai Shuai and was in a hurry, the thunderstorm stopped the car, and was just about to turn around, when the voice of the arhat behind the pad came from the walkie-talkie, "I'm going!" There are corpses coming up from behind, why are you still stopping? Hurry up and scratch the post? ”

Oops! There are wolves in front and tigers in the back, and we are actually wrapped in dumplings by corpses!

Welcome to the corpses of Xi'an! How good is that?

I suddenly remembered the protective clothing on our car by head, when is it not used at this time? Hurry up and let the thunderstorm notify everyone, lock the doors and windows, wear protective clothing, don't make a sound, and when the corpses find out that they have lost their target, they will naturally disperse.

When the time of the test came, I put the dingbell cat on Shuai Shuai and told him, "If you hide the cat in the belly of the jingle cat, you can't talk anymore, remember!" ”

Shuai Shuai raised the claw-shaped gloves of the jingle cat and pressed them on the helmet, nodding vigorously, the little guy thought I was playing with him, alas.

We helped each other put on all the protective suits, and the thunderstorm had already closed the windows of the car, and within three minutes of all this work, the black corpses emerged from the abandoned workshop.

My heart almost didn't jump out of my throat, I could only hug Shuai Shuai tightly, Canaan hugged the two of us tightly, in fact, no matter how tight the hug was, it was useless, this was just a kind of psychological comfort between family members.

The effect of the protective clothing is indeed leveraged, the zombies pounced in front of our car, suddenly lost the target, became dazed, and unwilling, east and west end of the collision, the outside of the car was hit by them bang, that is not a problem, the steel plate of the tiger off-road vehicle is bulletproof, thick, and two more hard hit them is equivalent to suicide.
