Chapter 12: The Tree That Stands in the Way!
Huge bones are buried in the ground, and they have been decaying for thousands of years. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Though he is dead, his soul is not destroyed. When calamity struck again, his sunken eye sockets glowed with a dark glow, as if he wanted to break free from all confines and enter the world.
A little ghostly light, extending from the ground, like a seed sprouting and growing...... Eventually, a large tree is formed on the ground.
There are no flowers and no leaves, the body of the tree is knotted, and the fruits are swaying in the wind, showing a unique style that is different from any plant in the world.
……
National Highway 321.
Fork in the road. An off-road vehicle and a pickup truck are parked. There were two men in the car, it was Ling Feng and Jin Fugui.
This is where they broke up.
Ling Feng was going west along the national highway to Hanyang. Jin Fugui rushed to Yandu to find his old lady.
"Brother, take care!"
The car window rolled down, and Jin Fugui poked out his fat face, in addition to reluctance, there was also confusion about the road ahead.
"Take care of yourself!"
Ling Feng rarely smiled. This fat man...... It made him feel like he was getting along with his former comrades.
"Don't force yourself in anything, just do your best."
This is Ling Feng's parting message. He admired the fat man's filial piety to his mother. However, Yanbu is not comparable to Feng County, a medium-sized city with a population of one million, and the number of humans infected by the virus and turned into living corpses can be imagined.
Not to mention the fat man, even if it was him, he was not at all sure that he would break in and come out alive.
"My wife lives in a villa on the outskirts of the city, where there are few people!"
Hearing that Ling Feng was concerned, Jin Fugui took out a big bag from the back seat, and said with a smile: "There is a guy that my brother prepared for me, I have the confidence to come out alive!" ”
"Good!"
Ling Feng nodded. He glanced at Jin Fugui deeply, as if he wanted to keep in mind the figure and appearance of this friend who met in Pingshui. After that, drive away in an off-road vehicle.
"Take care ......"
Jin Fugui looked at the off-road vehicle that was moving away and muttered these two words.
Hum -
The next moment, the engine roared and roared. He looked at the road to Yandu, increased his throttle, and drove away.
For a long, long time, there was no such feeling of life and death.
Ling Feng drove an off-road vehicle, galloping on the highway, with a lot of thoughts in his heart. In my mind, I remembered the picture of fighting side by side with my comrades. Jin Fugui, a fat man who met in Pingshui, actually made his indifferent heart a little more warm.
"Good luck!"
Where he needed to help, he had done it all. The fat man is unpredictable, whether it is evil or auspicious, it all depends on luck. For this stranger-turned-friend, from the bottom of his heart he only had blessings, and he couldn't help any more.
Of course, he can accompany the other party to the salt capital. But Hanyang's mother and brother couldn't wait. A day of delay will make them more dangerous.
This was what Ling Feng did not want.
Because at this moment, no one is more important than his loved ones.
Putting aside distracting thoughts, Ling Feng concentrated on driving and headed west. It is more than 800 kilometers from Pung-gun to Hanyang, and it takes nearly 10 hours to drive.
Of course, this is when the road is smooth.
Disaster struck suddenly. And it's still in the evening, during the busy traffic period. Regardless of whether it is a main road or a feeder road, you can see abandoned vehicles hitting everywhere.
The owners of these cars were either infected with the virus and turned into living corpses, or turned into food. Leaving all types of cars sideways on the road, blocking the lines of traffic.
Breaking up with Jin Fugui and traveling more than ten kilometers west, Ling Feng ran into trouble. The front belongs to the main traffic line of the national highway, and there are many vehicles, horizontal and vertical, blocking the way.
When you encounter a car blocking the road, you can directly hit it away. However, if you encounter a large vehicle, you must stop, or detour, or try to move the vehicle.
In this way, I stopped and stopped, and in the evening, I didn't go out of the territory of Yandu.
Looking at the sky, Ling Feng's heart was crossed, and he abandoned the off-road vehicle and directly chose a big truck. The throttle was raised, and it went on a rampage, making a way through the abandoned traffic.
When it is blackened. He drove out of Yandu through the national highway and entered the territory of Taixing City.
Although the large truck was hit, the condition of the vehicle could not withstand it for a long time. When the engine was turned off, Ling Feng saw a car on the side of the road, went directly, changed cars and continued to move forward.
The car is a good car, Audi A6. The smell in the car was not good, and the smell of blood was permeated. When he opened the car door, a living corpse sprang out of it, which was dealt with by Ling Feng.
The living corpse was a middle-aged man in a suit. In the passenger seat, there are human remains, as well as broken skirts and high heels.
It is conceivable that there were originally two people in the car, one turned into a living corpse, and then brutally ate the co-pilot's companion.
Humans become living corpses and lose all memories, including the use of vehicles. Therefore, the living corpse was trapped in the car and could not get out.
Of course, with the power of a living corpse, it was enough to break through the glass of the car and escape. However, they don't seem to have this IQ.
The smell is unpleasant. Especially when Ling Feng's sense of smell had become extremely sensitive, the foul smell of blood rushed straight to his mind, making him can't help but feel sick in his heart.
He found a tissue and rolled it into a ball to plug his nostrils. After that, it got better.
Entering the territory of Taixing, there were not many living corpses along the way, but many survivors were encountered. On the forks around the national highway, all kinds of vehicles gathered, forming a mighty team of escapers.
This was not unexpected.
Feng County is close to the sea in the east and has a shallow coastline of dozens of kilometers long. The surrounding communication lines are developed, and when disaster strikes, the survivors in the county, as long as they have the slightest brain, will choose to flee to the open space with few populations.
There are very few people like him who go the opposite way and escape from the direction of Yandu.
The purple snow is drifting, and although the catastrophe has struck, there are still many human survivors. Some of them relied on luck, some relied on force, and there were not a few who escaped.
Nowadays, the national highway in Feng County, the vehicle fleet that can be seen everywhere is enough to prove.
There were other survivors driving in front of him, and for Ling Feng, it was a good thing. The road is blocked, and his journey to Hanyang will be much smoother.
The night was late.
The windows are rolled down, and the breeze blows, making it feel cooler. Ling Feng drove on the highway at a gallop, neither fast nor slow. From time to time, the headlights flashed, accompanied by the sound of hurried car horns.
"Are you in a hurry to be reincarnated?"
Seeing the survivors who honked their horns to overtake, Ling Feng sneered. The world is in chaos, there is no traffic control, and order does not exist. If you want to save your life, you don't rely on anyone's car to drive fast, but on your keen eyes and the ability to see where the situation will go in the future.
These panicked survivors are aimless, believing that it won't be long before their good fortune runs out, and then they ...... What awaits them will only be death.
Compared to these people, Ling Feng was undoubtedly much calmer, unhurried, and drove forward. His goal was clear: to return to Hanyang to find his mother and brother, and then take his relatives to find a safe place to take refuge.
The road back to the city has long been familiar with it, continue to move forward for more than ten kilometers, and drive into the Jingyang Expressway through the national highway, and you can reach Hanyang all the way.
Thinking of his relatives in Hanyang, a flash of anxiety flashed in Ling Feng's eyes. He didn't know what happened to his mother and brother when disaster came.
Unconsciously, the throttle increases and the speed increases.
It's not about yourself, it's about yourself.
Ling Feng was not exempt from vulgarity. Thinking about his relatives in his heart, he always wants to rush back to his hometown in Hanyang as soon as possible.
However, the car had not gone far when something happened ahead.
Three hundred meters away.
There were hundreds of cars blocking the place, and the water was impassable. There are even more survivors, in the thousands.
None of this surprised Ling Feng. I was surprised to see something in the middle of the road ahead.
It's a tree!
A 10-meter-tall tree with a strange shape!
There are no flowers and no leaves, and it stretches across the middle of the road, blocking the way of all survivors. On the branches that resemble vine knots, there are more than a dozen fist-sized fruits, which glow with a faint white light and an alluring aroma under the dark night......
