Chapter 55: Returning Home Safely
The circle was indeed very large, and when we returned to the road, we could not see the corpses that had been left far behind.
With a gallop, before it got dark, we returned to the farm.
These newborn husbands have long been eager to see us return triumphantly with two large tanker trucks, and they are all overjoyed.
The first thing we did when we got back told everyone to be vigilant immediately, there were a large number of corpses on the way behind us, and we didn't know when they would be killed, or what their purpose was.
The second thing is to help Xuan and his party arrange a dormitory so that they can settle down as soon as possible.
Xuan and Xiao are husband and wife, of course, they have to give someone a single room.
The five girls asked to live in a dormitory, but there were only four beds in one room, so they had to place Xiao Cui in other girls' dormitories.
Mengfei, Rhubarb, and Teacher Wang were arranged together.
As for Dr. Ali and Liang Qingyan, I allocated them a private room, and I want to have a good talk with Dr. Ali when I have time.
After settling down with others, I didn't care about talking to Canaando, ran back upstairs in three steps and two steps, and came to my parents' room, handsome and handsome were playing, and when I saw me, I cried, and shouted with my chubby hand: "Mom, Mom, Mom......"
I said hello to my parents briefly, and picked up my son when I stepped forward, hugged tightly, and the handsome little hands also hugged my neck tightly.
My parents saw that my look was not as usual, and hurriedly asked what was wrong, but I didn't want them to be worried, and every time I came back, I reported good news and not bad news, and this time was of course no exception, so I just replied lightly: "It's okay, I just miss my son!" By the way, this time we went out and rescued 12 people! ”
My parents were successfully diverted by me, and immediately asked who they were rescued and where they were saved......
Canaan and I had a great understanding, and we talked about the rescued until we got back to our rooms.
As soon as I closed the door, I turned around and threw myself into my husband's arms, holding his waist tightly with both hands, and sobbing.
Canaan hugged me hard, patted me lightly on the back, and asked anxiously, "Don't worry, speak slowly, what happened when I went out this time?" ”
Listening to the thrills I encountered on this trip, Canaan's face turned white and blue for a while, and he was obviously terrified, and when I finally finished speaking, he said heavily: "In the future, you are not allowed to go out with the women's team so rashly!" If there is really something, let's men bear it, remember? ”
This time I didn't dare to disagree, I nodded obediently, this time it almost caused a big disaster, I didn't dare to be stubborn.
Then Canaan hugged me tightly as I had just hugged my son, and murmured, "There is only one wife, if something happens to you, what will happen to me and my son?" I think I'm usually too arrogant with you, it's really uneasy! ”
I suddenly asked, "Husband, have I changed?" ”
Canaan pushed me away, looked at my face seriously, and nodded: "It's changed, I've become stronger, I'm more mature, I'm stronger." ”
I shook my head: "I didn't mean that, I mean, am I getting cold?" I couldn't have imagined that I could control the fact that I could not save some living people who died in front of me, and they died so miserably. I feel like I'm not the same as I used to be. ”
Canaan stared at me for a long time and asked, "What do you think you would have done before?" Impulsively open the door and fight to the death with the corpses? Desperate? ”
I shook my head in confusion, I definitely didn't have the courage to put myself in the midst of a man-eating monster before, but I certainly wasn't as decisive as I am now, I could calmly stop other people's impulses, and just watched the tragedy happen outside, so what has changed?
"I don't know," I replied honestly, "but I don't like myself like this, I feel that my heart is getting more and more ruthless, and even if such a tragedy happens in front of me, I can keep my composure, which makes me feel that I have lost some kind of humanity, I can't tell." ”
Canaan fell silent, and after a while, he whispered: "Not only you, but I also feel the same way, in the past, I was always compassionate, I don't know when, I am no longer so easily sentimental, sometimes I hear who is suffering, I am not very sad, maybe numb." ”
Canaan is a kind man with a very soft heart, but also a jealous and hateful person, in the face of the dark side of society, he has never compromised, easy to cry, easy to be indignant, not much to say, but extremely rich in feelings, today I heard him can say this, it can be seen that the person who has changed, is indeed not the only one.
Canaan continued: "This feeling makes me feel very frightened, the most terrible thing about the end of Shijie is not that the appearance of zombies breaks the supremacy of human beings and the comfortable and safe daily life, but that human beings lose the emotions that a civilized society should have, compassion is one of the important signs that distinguish humans from other creatures, if we lose compassion and only have a simple desire to survive, then what is the difference between us and the coyotes on the grassland?" ”
It seems to me that the real fear of Canaan and I is that we ourselves are losing the ability to "love" others, which represents humanity, and if humanity is lost, humanity will soon perish.
I don't want to become a walking corpse who only cares about his own life and ignores the lives of other humans, so isn't the difference between being a zombie and not eating people?
At dinnertime, I came to the cafeteria nervously, waiting for those new husbands to challenge me, who knows, they did not complain when they saw me, but they all came to comfort me, which touched me very much!
Chengzi said gently: "Sister Duo has worked hard! This time, your women's army is really powerful! Let us men admire from the bottom of our hearts, if this situation changes us, we may not be as calm and witty as you! Sister Duo, little brother admires! ”
The smoke ring complained loudly: "Sister Duo is eccentric!" If you don't take me with me for such an exciting task, my knives are about to rust! Next time, I can't let me go and have a good time! ”
Only when the ghost saw everyone scattering did he say to me alone: "It's really wrong to only bring a women's team on this mission!" However, you can guarantee that everyone will get out of the way, and you can be regarded as a qualified female leader, and I will give you a score of nine this time. ”
My waterfall is sweating, what else can I say? Everyone loves me, and I feel it more and more deeply.
Before the meal, as usual, I introduced the twelve new companions of Xuan and his party to everyone, and everyone has always been friendly and welcomed, and Xuan and his group saw the fresh meat and vegetables on the table, their eyes straightened, they had not seen these good things for a year.
I smiled and made a gesture of please: "You're welcome, this will be home in the future, let's eat." ”
Looking at their happy expressions, I found a little comfort in my heart, although this could not make up for the guilt and pain of refusing to open the door to rescue the minibus, even though I knew in my heart that not opening the door was the only choice, unless we were determined to die with the minibus, but obviously it was meaningless.
I had some leftover bedding from the last time I brought back at Wal-Mart, and I had someone to help distribute it to them, and when the coal came back, the boiler on the farm was already burning, and the room was extra warm at night.
The next day, the, the gray rabbit and the yellow wolf came to me and said that they wanted to see the defense facilities of the farm, and I asked Xiaochao to lead the way and accompany the three of them to go on patrol.
After a while, they came back and came straight to me with a suggestion.
"If the outermost trap is dug through the penultimate circle, the distance in the pit can be up to ten meters, and then the dry branches are spread into it, poured with gasoline, and once the corpses fall into it, when the number is large, the archers can shoot rockets into the pit and set fire to the joint venture, which can not only prevent them from crossing the first barrier, but also dispose of their corpses directly in the pit, is this feasible?" said.
When I heard it, it was a very reliable idea! How can't it work! When the others heard it, they even called it a clever idea.
Just do it! Xiaochao and others immediately drove the excavator, bulldozer to construction, two days later, the ten-meter-long wide pit surrounded the farm, and the others went to the forest to cut dry branches, laid a thick layer in the pit, and then took out gasoline from the tanker, evenly sprinkled on the dry branches, everyone used it very economically, we all know that it was not easy to come by for the two tankers, and almost let the women's army and of the farm all take their lives!
