Chapter Seventy-Three: The Dead City Is Candlelit
Crawling from the stairwell to the sixth floor like a thief, Xingzi whispered to me Weishenme to go to the sixth floor, I told him that the first floor to the sixth floor of Shangri-La is usually a conference room, a dining room and a huge restaurant, which is used to hold banquets, and there will be no guest rooms, of course, this is the Shangri-La model of Bencheng, as for this hotel in Anji City, I have not been here, and I don't know if it is the same, anyway, I am not tired of climbing a few more stairs, so I simply skip the second to fifth floors and go straight to the sixth floor.
Can the meeting room be occupied? Of course, Shangri-La's thick carpet is like a cloud on it, and it is not impossible to sleep when the bed is over, but since there are so many separate rooms and large beds upstairs, we have to go to the floor?
Besides, wouldn't we be whimpering with a group of zombies that had been collectively mutated into a group of zombies from a company that was meeting here on the day of the riot? It's easy to deal with zombies in the guest room, and there are up to two or three heads in a room, how easy it is to break them one by one! Risk can be minimized!
Compared to climbing a few more stairs, this deal is a good deal!
Except for the cleaner zombie, there really weren't any other zombies in the stairwell from the first floor to the sixth floor.
The corridor on the sixth floor is still as quiet as hell, and I have to wonder if Shangri-La Anji City was not doing well before. Aren't there many people living in normal times? Can't wow, I used to book a room for foreign customers in Bencheng Shangri-La, always said that the hotel was full, and the expensive hotel rushed to live, so I have always been convinced that the team of local tyrants is huge!
We started to clear the obstacle from the first room, and we thought we had to pick the door and press the lock to get in, but it turned out that the door was all open, yes! These hotels are electrically controlled, once the entire building is powered off, the door lock will immediately fail, that is to say, these rooms are powerless, and the small hotels of the eight-day chain are similar!
Strangely, the guest rooms on the sixth floor were all empty! We were a little amazed.
Zhang Xiaomei explained in one sentence: "A room with a low floor is not as quiet as a room with a high floor, after all, it is adjacent to the street, and there is always the sound of cars!" Those who come here to live are either rich or expensive, of course, you have to arrange a room on a high floor, my dad used to come to help a friend book a room, and the tenth floor is absolutely not. The hotel arranges for guests to stay, and only when the high-rise arrangement is full, will it consider arranging to the low-rise. It seems that on the day of the accident, the high-rise rooms were not full. ”
We found an iron rod to pin the door of the corridor to prevent zombies from running down from the upper floor in the middle of the night, and moved some tables and chairs in the room to block the door, so we were relieved to allocate the room and prepare to rest.
Yaoyao and I live in a standard room, enter the house, close the door first, although the door is off and can't be locked, but there is a small iron bump in the door that can hang the door, everyone who has an anti-theft door at home knows that thing, hang it, the door can open a crack, but it can't be opened. I've always wondered if this thing can really stop the robbers who are about to break through the door, and that little chain doesn't look very strong!
Looking at it, I didn't feel at ease, and I worked with Yaoyao to lift a small cabinet with sundries in the room to the door and squeeze the door shut, double insurance, even if there are really zombies who come to push the door in the middle of the night, no matter if it can be blocked or not, it can also buy us a little time to prepare.
Yaoyao's long curtain on the floor was opened, and with the help of the moonlight outside and our small flashlight, the situation in the room was also roughly seen.
Two single beds with a width of one meter and five meters, the bed is covered with a thick dark gold cover, Yaoyao carefully rolled up the bed cover and threw it on the carpet, revealing the sheets and pillows inside, all of which are snow-white and snow-white, no one has taken care of them for nearly two years, but they are still so neat, there will definitely be a little bit of floating ash, and they are all caught by the thick bed cover.
I looked at the bathroom with a small flashlight, and two words: clean!
I have to say that Shangri-La's hardware facilities are fantastic, the window glass of the guest room is relatively tight, and most of the dust outside is isolated outside, because there is an extra layer of door in this bathroom, there is not much dust on the washbasin and floor tiles, and there is no dusty feeling of the small hotel at all.
Looking at the faucet, I didn't know what to think, but I actually went over and lifted it, and what made me even more stunned was that there was a thin stream of clear water flowing out of the faucet.
How so? I used my flashlight to get closer to take a closer look, and the water started to get a little muddy, but after a while, it cleared.
"Yaoyao, can you believe it? There's water in the bathroom! I stretched out my head and shouted Yaoyao.
Yaoyao reached out and grabbed a little water and sniffed it under her nose, "Hey, Sister Duo, there really doesn't have any smell or smell, it seems that Shangri-La has its own water tank, this is the water that was originally stored, and it can be regarded as stagnant water, it's been almost two years, you can't drink it, it's no problem to flush the toilet." ”
The two of us washed our faces with this water, went to the toilet happily, and listened to the sound of flushing in the water tank, which felt very amazing! It's like going back in time.
Yaoyao happily lay on a bed and cheered: "Wow, it's so comfortable, what a soft bed!" It felt so much better than my original cot! ”
I opened the closet, and there were two snow-white pajamas hanging in it, which were part of Shangri-La's service, but instead of taking the pajamas, I took out the quilt that was folded like two square cakes, both snow-white.
"You have to open the window open, or you'll suffocate to death when you sleep at night, and I hope there are no mosquitoes." I gave Yaoyao one quilt and went to open the window.
It's late summer after all, and it's definitely unbearable to be in a room without air conditioning without a little window open. Of course, while it is cool, you should also cover your stomach with a quilt to avoid catching a cold.
Halfway through the window, I suddenly noticed that there was light in the upstairs room of a second-story shop not far away!
"Yaoyao, come and see, there seem to be survivors in that building!" I was afraid that I would be dazzled, so I hurriedly called Yaoyao.
Yaoyao came over to take a look at it, and said affirmatively: "It's candlelight, although it's faint, but it's definitely not a reflection, Sister Duo, do you want to go over and have a look tomorrow?" ”
I nodded, "Yes!" What we lack now is not material, but people. I discovered Yaoyao, if you want to survive in this last world, you must have enough strength! We used to patronize and avoid zombies and fight against zombies, but now I realize that the most terrible thing in this last world is not zombies, but bad people! ”
Yaoyao nodded violently, "Yes, yes, I only recently understood this truth, although Wu Feng's gang is small, they dare to worry about us!" This shows that they don't take our combat effectiveness seriously! If we can fight, kill and fight, and there are more people who can fight, do they still have the guts? They all have to go around us. ”
I stared at the candlelight and replied, "Yaoyao, you're right! Let's look at the crowd, in fact, the elderly and children account for a large proportion, we are greatly injured in the battle of the farm, we need to absorb more battles that can improve our protection value, I believe, they also need to rely on a big tree! Our big family is the big tree needed by the survivors who are struggling to live alone. ”
We slept soundly that night, and as long as we were in a safe environment, we would quickly rest to replenish our energy.
In the summer, when the sky dawns early, we all get up at five or six o'clock, and when Yaoyao goes to other rooms in the morning and says that there is water in the faucet, they don't know it! Men are men, superfluous actions are rarely done, in their impression, the last days of the city are all cut off from water and electricity, and the faucets are automatically blocked in their eyes, how can I be so strange to break the faucet.
Knowing that there is still water in the faucet and toilet tank, everyone's mood is very high, washing the face, going to the toilet, seriously flushing the toilet, even if no one will stay in this hotel again, we are willing to follow the habits of civilized society, and return these rooms to a clean.
Everyone is refreshed and ready to go, and I announced the secret that I discovered with Yaoyao last night, and in the shop opposite Shangri-La, there are survivors!
Everyone is very willing to check it out, and also agree with the point that we need a new life Liliang now, and I really have to thank Wu Feng for the harassment of this gang, otherwise we will still live a small life with pleasure, like boiling frogs in warm water, wishful thinking that we have no natural enemies except for the crossing of corpses.
That kind of tranquility is really a chronic poison that can easily destroy us in an instant.
What if Wu Feng's group was not only eighteen people, but one hundred and eighty people?
And what if they have thermal weapons?
The big family made up by ordinary people can only be slaughtered arbitrarily!
It's too dangerous, and the more you think about it, the more dangerous it becomes! We have to be strong.
First of all, it is to recruit more kind-hearted and combat-ready survivors as one of our members, and we don't know where to get thermal weapons, but we all understand the truth that there are many people.
Everyone returned to the lobby on the first floor smoothly from the sixth floor, and I saw that the zombie head that was kicked away by Tianxu last night was still staring at us, and this head would not die for a while, but we still ignored it and went straight to the outside of the hotel.
No matter how luxurious the hotel is, when you walk out of its door, end the trip, and run in the direction of home, you only have the warmth of home in your heart, and no matter how comfortable the hotel is, it is all floating clouds.
The heart is urgent, but the reality is never so smooth, and I don't know if it was attracted by the sound of killing zombies in the lobby last night, or drifting along the smell of human flesh on our bodies, outside the heavy copper door of Shangri-La, there were thirty or forty zombies lying on their stomachs, dancing with their teeth and claws, patting and slapping, scolding, but unfortunately they couldn't get in...... I'm sorry, but the hotel was closed last night, so I locked the door and rested!
"This registration desk is high enough and long enough, and it will save you some trouble to clean them up in a big house." I looked at the marble registration desk and said, lazy people can always come up with lazy ideas, but everyone likes it.
So a dozen people climbed up to the long Shangri-La registration desk, more than a meter away from each other, and the others looked around and found that the marble window sills side by side with the main entrance were wide, half a person high, and could retreat against the windows as support, so they each chose a suitable position and jumped up.
Tianxu and Tang Xiao volunteered to let the zombies in, they opened the bolt of the copper door, and without waiting for the zombies to push the door open, they turned around and ran, jumping directly onto an unmanned windowsill.
The zombies vigorously pushed open the bronze door, and rushed in with a whimper, and began to pounce on the registration desk as far as they could see, but they didn't find that there was still a person standing on the windowsill behind them, and those people whistled to lure some of the zombies over, and after the zombies were diverted, our pressure was reduced, killing zombies from a high place for us, a bit like morning exercise, others got up in the morning to run, we cut zombies, almost, is the burial point.
Coming out of Shangri-La, I found that the weather was nice today! The zombies on this street are all lying in the hotel lobby, and the street is unusually quiet.
Getting into all the cars, Yaoyao and Chen Da and I sat in the car driven by Adam, as the lead car, and drove towards the shops on the other street.
We're going to see what kind of survivors are in that room.
