"No way, it's absolutely impossible!" Ban Zhiyu made a fuss and said, "You were obviously bitten, why are you okay?" ”

Although everyone sat down and listened to Du Yuheng explain from beginning to end, Ban Zhiyu still couldn't believe it. Du Yuheng could only shrug his shoulders helplessly and smiled: "You ask me, who do I ask?" ”

"Qin Rong's experimental vaccine." Xie Tao, who was staring out the window through the crack in the nailed wooden plank on the window, turned around and said, "It must be the medicine that Qin Rong gave you that has taken effect." ”

Xie Tao sat down next to the oil lamp, put down the gun, took a cup of porridge boiled in water soaked in compressed biscuits handed by Du Yuheng, took a sip, and continued: "Before you arrived in Tianyang, there were rumors that Qin Rong claimed that he could create a vaccine; That's why so many people follow him. ”

"But you didn't feel anything special about your body on the way back to Nanning from Tianyang, did you?"

Ban Zhiyu's natural question made Du Yuheng affirm the suspicions he had been hiding in his heart before. "No, I always felt some kind of change in my body, but it didn't seem to feel anything on the surface, until that day I suddenly fell into a coma and woke up for a few days and couldn't walk......"

"Du Yuheng has always had the unknown drug you mentioned in his body, and in fact, the previous test results have shown that his blood does contain some substances that we don't know, and these substances can kill the HTS89 and HTS89R viruses themselves and the host." Liao Yuan analyzed while using the medical needles, potions, and gauze he found to bandage the gunshot wound on Du Yuheng's leg and the bite on his neck, "It may be that this is the reason why he is still safe and sound after being bitten by a zombie" Speaking ......of this, Liao Yuan couldn't help but glance at Du Yuheng's amber eyes again, "...... Of course, to some extent, it is unharmed. ”

"How does it feel?" Xie Tao raised his chin slightly and asked Du Yuheng, "The injuries on your body are almost the same as mine." ”

"The bite on the neck is not too serious, and the bullet on the leg is not deep, but the wound has enlarged a little due to the strenuous exercise, and it is estimated that there will be a scar." After bandaging Du Yuheng's wounds, Liao Yuan sat down next to Xie Tao and half-jokingly, "Fortunately, it's your thighs, you can still wear beach shorts in the future." ”

"It doesn't matter if you will have the opportunity to go to the beach in the future." Du Yuheng said with a smile, "Now there is nothing uncomfortable except for a severe headache and body aches." ”

"Have a good rest tonight, and leave the vigil to me and Ban Zhiyu." Xie Tao stood up, patted the dust on his pants, picked up the gun and said with a smile, "I have blocked the door on the first floor, and the staircase on the third floor is the same, I think it should be no big problem for us to stay in this room tonight." I'll check the situation on this floor again with Ban Zhiyu later, and then come back, you and Dr. Liao can rest here first." ”

Xie Tao can be regarded as having finished announcing tonight's task, Du Yuheng looked at Ban Zhiyu, this guy still looked at him suspiciously, so Du Yuheng asked in his school bully-like tone, half provocative, half joking: "Hey, if there is anything unpleasant, just say it quickly, lest you have to look at me like this all night." ”

Ban Zhiyu, who was originally a little afraid of Du Yuheng, couldn't help but be stunned when he suddenly asked, and said with a forced smile: "No, no!" It's just that...... Your eyes...... Weird and scary ......"

In fact, Du Yuheng is also very concerned about the changes in his eyes. Ban Zhiyu is still a friend after all, and he is afraid, if he encounters other survivors in the future, how can he explain it? So since he saw Xie Tao and them just now, Du Yuheng has been avoiding direct contact with them.

"I ...... I can't help it, who wants to be like this? Du Yuheng lowered his head, his green eyes fluttering in the dark, "I also found out when I happened to see the mirror when I came here, and I didn't feel anything before." ”

"And now?"

"It's okay now......"

"Well, let's get some rest early." Xie Tao glanced at Ban Zhiyu, suggesting that he should stop being suspicious.

Ban Zhiyu reluctantly smiled at Du Yuheng, then picked up his weapon and followed Xie Tao out of the room. After the two left, only Du Yuheng and Liao Yuan were left in the room, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn, as if no one had spoken since the beginning.

"I know all about you." Du Yuheng stared at the yellowed light in front of him and said calmly, "You have been using me." ”

Liao Yuan was suddenly startled, at this time she found that Du Yuheng still had a gun in his hand, and Xie Tao took back the pistol that had given her to defend herself, but what disturbed her the most was Du Yuheng's extraordinary eyes.

"Thing...... Things are not as you think. ”

"Even if Wanxiang doesn't do it, you'll find a way to destroy them, won't you?" Du Yuheng's surprisingly calm made Liao Yuan sit on pins and needles, "In fact, no matter what, Wanxiang and Qingshan are always incompatible......"

"Nope! I only know that the mayor wants to research a vaccine before Wanxiang, and I don't know anything else! Liao Yuan flatly denied it, "At the beginning, Zhang Xizheng talked to me, saying that the mayor wanted me to determine whether you had any so-called information, and later after I confirmed, he asked me to prove it to him, otherwise he would drive you out of Qingshan on the grounds of 'potential threat'." ”

"So you gave them the information?"

"So what else can I do? Zhang Xizheng assured me that if the materials were handed over to them, he would also let me be in charge of the research, and he would not make a noise, and would give me more assistance. ”

"At this point, it's useless to talk about it." Du Yuheng's tone was like an executioner before execution, he swung the rifle standing on the ground back and forth, as if the executioner was weighing the big knife in his hand, which made Liao Yuan's back hairy.

"Du ......"

"Okay." As soon as Liao Yuan spoke, Du Yuheng stood up with a long sigh, so frightened that Liao Yuan jumped up as if he had stepped on a snake. But Du Yuheng didn't do what Liao Yuan thought, but looked at Liao Yuan with those yellow and clear eyes in surprise and asked, "Wow, what are you going to do?" ”

"You're not going to ...... Yes? It's nothing ......" Liao Yuan stroked her hair embarrassedly, bowed her head weakly and said, "I think too much." ”

"You're too nervous...... Du Yuheng didn't seem to know what Liao Yuan wanted to say, shrugged, walked to the blanket that had been laid out in the corner, sat down tightly, lay down comfortably, and took a deep breath, "Hey, everyone has unspeakable hardships." Dr. Liao, the next time we encounter something like this, we should discuss it in advance. I don't care about your adult business, but if you do this, you're likely putting my friends in danger, so I'll have to intervene. ”

Liao Yuan was still standing in place, looking at Du Yuheng, who had long been unsuspecting, resting on the messy futon with his eyes closed. "You...... Don't blame me? ”

"Blame you? What's the use of blaming you? Du Yuheng turned his head to look at Liao Yuan, who was slightly embarrassed, and then turned his head to look at the ceiling that was dimly dyed by the light of the oil lamp, "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, besides, now it is estimated that Huang Weizheng and they all think I am dead...... Maybe I'm really dead, and I'm talking to you now as a shell of a walking corpse......"

Liao Yuan took a step forward, wanting to comfort this poor young man who had been deceived by her, but was relieved to forgive him, but at this moment, there was a sudden piercing roar outside the building that seemed to tear the night sky, and everything in the room was shaking violently, as if an earthquake was coming, followed by a deafening explosion, and the echo of the explosion was soon drowned out in the roar of the mutants in the entire dead city.

Suddenly, Xie Tao and Ban Zhiyu hurriedly opened the door and squeezed into the room, panickedly locking the wooden door that would inevitably be a mantis arm if they encountered a group of mutants.

"What's going on?" Du Yuheng, who was startled by the explosion, hurriedly asked.

"Fly...... Plane! Ban Zhiyu panted, "I flew a plane just now!" ”

"What?"

"That's right, we just saw a plane with a fire engine flying over our heads." Xie Tao replied calmly.

"Where did that fall?" Liao Yuan asked.

Xie Tao thought for a while and said, "It should be not far from us, but in the direction of the city center." ”

"Dead City Forest...... The people above estimate that even if they can escape the plane crash, they won't survive......"

"Don't be so pessimistic, if someone really survives, then we should save them!" Du Yuheng said excitedly.

"Du Yuheng is right, the plane seems to be adjusting its flight attitude when it fell, and someone should have tried to make a forced landing."

"Can you see the plane adjusting its flight attitude?" Du Yuheng looked at Xie Tao in surprise, with a look of disbelief.

Xie Tao nodded and said, "Well, my eyesight is not bad, and besides, the plane flew really low......

"Yes! It should have just passed off the roof of our building! Ban Zhiyu took over excitedly, and couldn't help but raise his voice and said.

Seeing this, Du Yuheng hurriedly covered Ban Zhiyu's mouth, and then took the initiative to lower his voice and said, "In this way, we are definitely very close to this plane." ”

Xie Tao walked to the window, and through the gap in the wooden plank, they could see the fire burning in the forest in the distance from their position. "yes, I guess it's not too far from that."

"Let's go see tomorrow!" Du Yuheng proposed, "Whether there are survivors or not, I think it is necessary to go and see it." ”

Xie Tao and Ban Zhiyu both agreed, but only Liao Yuan was still a little hesitant, but Liao Yuan didn't have much choice in front of him, except to go on an adventure with these three young people, he could only hide in this dilapidated building and wait for death.

"Dr. Liao."

Hearing Du Yuheng's call, Liao Yuan happened to see his amber eyes that were born out of accident but were still clear, and those two jade-like eyes exuded a light full of expectation and hope.

"Alright, let's go for a walk in the damn forest."

"There's absolutely no mistake, it's an airplane." The soldier returned to the night-vision periscope set up in the armored car, and gently moved from the cab back to the crew room and whispered, "The place where the fall is not too far from us, but it should be in the forest." ”

"Our priority is not to care about the plane, but to find a way to meet the mayor first, and that's the key." Zhang Xizheng, who was sitting on the side chair of the passenger room, pushed his silver-rimmed glasses, looked around at the people around him and said.

Including Zhang Xizheng, a total of sixteen of them were crammed into a military transport armored car. This 92-wheeled armored vehicle is a special anti-chemical armored vehicle used by the military to maintain the safety and order of the evacuation of residents. As one of Tsingshan's most precious assets, Tsingshan only has one of the few Type 92 armored vehicles, in order to save unnecessary loss of fuel, these three cars usually do not go to the mission, just parked in the heavily guarded control workshop, but never expected that this car will really come in handy one day.

Before Zhang Xizheng and others got on this car, the other two armored vehicles in the workshop had disappeared, and it is estimated that the mayor and Battalion Commander Yang and others had already gotten on the armored vehicles to escort them out, although no one knew whether they were safe at present. According to the evacuation plan formulated by Aoyama, once the safe zone falls, everyone can retreat to a scenic spot in Aoyama Park with a hexagonal tower as the main body. Because the tower is surrounded by a low wall, and the hexagonal tower is located in the depths of the park, on a high ground overlooking the city below, it is definitely a good safe place to stay, except for the lack of perfect living facilities. On weekdays, a team of ten people is also stationed there, responsible for observing the expansion of the dead city forest in the urban area of Nanning, and guarding the last garrison of the Qingshan security forces.

Today's fire has shattered the last hope of the Qingshan people for survival, and I don't know how many more people have died tragically under the torture of the flames and mutants. Zhang Xizheng, who has actually become the third-in-command of Qingshan, rushed out of the safety zone with a group of people; The armored vehicle was invincible along the way, not only crashing through the walls that were supposed to protect the safe zone, but also escaping the home they had survived in the apocalypse with the rest of the survivors.

"Daddy." Zhang Xizheng's daughter Zhang Wenyu looked at Zhang Xizheng with tears in her eyes and said, "You have to find a way to stop the bleeding for Brother Wei Hong." ”

"No way, is there anything like first-aid medicine gauze in the car?" Chen Mo knelt on the ground, pressed his hands tightly on the blood-red piece of Wei Hong's abdomen, who was sweating profusely, and shook his head, "It's just that simply wrapping it in bandages won't cure blood at all." ”

On the way to escape Aoyama to the workshop, the ceiling is suddenly blown open. Fortunately, Wei Hong, who was quick in his eyes, made a timely move to pull away Zhang Wenyu, who was inflexible in his legs. Although the little girl was not injured, Wei Hong was hit by a wooden spike that flew like a stray bullet, and the small dagger-sized sawdust cut a half-palm-long hole in his waist and abdomen. Without needles and threads, there was no way to stitch them up, and they could only watch the bright red blood flow away little by little.

In fact, Zhang Wenyu's physical condition is not optimistic. Infected with HTS89R, she had the same symptoms as Du Yuheng at the beginning, and she was still unable to move after her initial recovery. Because of this, she did not make it in time for the first batch of vaccines that were distributed at that time, but she escaped as a blessing in disguise and was not infected by the mutated vaccine. At that time, she was crowded outside the infirmary room and was pushed down by the chaotic crowd and found by Chen Mo, who happened to be about to look for Liao Yuan. The two of them struggled to run out of the chaotic corridor of the infirmary, and met Wei Hong, who was being ordered to find Zhang Wenyu, at the top of the stairs. The three of them finally escaped from Qingshan, but the road in front of them was still so slim.

When they withdrew from the safe zone, it was already dusk, and there were three or four vehicles of the survivors of Qingshan behind the armored car, most of these vehicles had no special protection, for the sake of safety, Zhang Xizheng let a few survivors who did not have protective barriers and sun membranes squeezed into the armored car, and there were still a dozen people hiding in the modified RV that looked like an armored car. Outside the car, a large group of mutants roaming in the dark were slowly passing by the side of their car, and from time to time you could hear the sound of these monsters' limbs colliding with the shell of the car and the muffled grunt of energy.

The conventional design of the Type 92 armored car is that it can carry eleven people, and counting the two people in the cab, a total of thirteen people is a reasonable capacity. But now there are sixteen people crowded in the car, and in addition to Wei Hong, there is another person who has had his leg cut off, lying on the ground in uncertainty about his life and death, and his blood is also stained all over the ground; The already modest passenger compartment is now even more crowded. Among them, only Chen Mo and the three soldiers knew some simple medical knowledge, but they did not have some reliable medical equipment at hand, so they could only do it in a hurry.

"No, most of the hemostatic gauze was given to that buddy." A soldier who helped Chen Mo deal with Wei Hong's wound pointed to the dying wounded with his chin and said helplessly.

Chen Mo turned his head to look at the short-legged wounded, it was estimated that he should have been bitten by a mutant at that time, and his companion used Du Yuheng's method of cutting off Long Hao's hand to cut off his entire calf. There was nothing that could be done to stop the bleeding from the huge wound, and even using up all the gauze would not help. The man was unconscious when he was put into the armored car, and his companions were anxiously wiping the sweat from his forehead, while two other soldiers tried to stop the bleeding. After discovering that Chen Mo was watching them, a soldier quietly shook his head at Chen Mo.

"Professor Zhang!" I don't know when a survivor who used to be a Qingshan scout observed the situation outside the car through the firing port of the armored car for a while, and then suddenly excitedly called out as low as possible, "After those monsters heard the explosion just now, they all accelerated their movements, as if they were going to rush over there to eat meat!" It won't be long before there aren't many zombies! ”

This guy's description is a bit like a black joke, but it's also quite graphic. Zhang Xizheng leaned over, looked left and right at the situation outside the car, and then sat back in his position just now, looking at the others who were also looking at him and thinking for a while. After a few seconds, he nodded, "Okay, we'll get out of here as fast as we can." ”

"Then I'll get in touch with someone from the other car." The soldier, who had a slightly higher rank than the other two soldiers on the collar badge, picked up the walkie-talkie and said to Zhang Xizheng.

"Well, tell them to leave the remaining three cars alone for now. We'll find a safe spot first, and then we'll come back tomorrow and drive those three cars over. ”

"Understood." After the soldier nodded, he walked to the cab and used the walkie-talkie to contact the people in the RV while checking the condition of the car, ready to start at any time.

After about twenty minutes, the mutants who were hovering around the armored vehicle were basically gone. The people in the car looked at each other, and finally focused their eyes on Zhang Xizheng. Zhang Xizheng looked around at everyone solemnly, then turned his head and nodded solemnly to the soldiers waiting for orders in the cab.

The soldier ignited the engine of the armored car, and at the same time, a soldier came to the fighting compartment and activated the fire control system, only to hear the sound of mechanical operation in the turret on the roof of the car. The turret is equipped with a 25mm cannon and a side-by-side 7.62mm machine gun, and the powerful firepower can basically clear all possible obstacles, but at the same time, the loud noise will attract more mutants, so they will never fire unless they have to. However, after seeing this turret in action, the people in the car can feel more or less safe.

This armored car is equipped with a lot of strong searchlights, but at this time, these equipment that may attract zombies are not turned on, and even the headlights are forbidden to be turned on, and the driver drives slowly with night vision devices; The RV behind also did not have its lights on, and the driver of that car followed closely behind it based on radio alerts from the AP crew's personnel and the red low-light signal lights that were turned on at the back of the armoured vehicle.

Due to the slow speed, the bumps in the car are not too big. Wei Hong moved his body, leaned against the wall of the car with the help of Chen Mo, and half-sat and said to Chen Mo: "I have a way to stop the bleeding." ”

With that, Wei Hong took out the dagger that was clasped around his waist, took out another lighter, and handed it to Chen Mo. "There were mutants all around just now, I didn't dare to do that, but now I can."

"You're ......"

"He wanted to stop the bleeding with fire." The soldiers in the fighting compartment heard the conversation between Wei Hong and Chen Mo and explained.

"But you could get infected."

"That's for later." Wei Hong firmly pushed the dagger and lighter in his hand to Chen Mo, "Quick, while it's still relatively peaceful outside." ”

Chen Mo had no choice but to agree to take the things handed by Wei Hong, light the lighter, and bake the dagger back and forth; Seeing this, a survivor on the side also sat down and took out a lighter to help Chen Mo heat it. Seeing that the blade of the dagger was completely roasted red, Wei Hong immediately snatched the dagger.

Everyone stared silently at the orange dagger in Wei Hong's hand. He lifted his clothes to reveal the bleeding wound, first tried to exhale twice, then took a long breath, gritted his teeth and held his breath as he collaged the wound with the blade of his knife. Just listening to the squeak, the air was instantly filled with the smell of burnt meat, and at the same time, there was a smell of blood. Wei Hong closed his eyes in pain, tilted his head viciously and endured the severe pain, his feet couldn't help but twist, but the right hand holding the dagger remained motionless until he felt that the flesh around the wound had been completely scalded, and then he trembled and threw the dagger to the side, panting. Chen Mo hurriedly stepped forward to help Wei Hong, and glanced at the blackened wound, which seemed to have a scar on it, but fortunately, the blood seemed to be able to stop temporarily.
