Chapter 403: Shadows
Jin Hu hoped that these words would make Meng Qiwen change his opinion of Zheng Jieming and his group, and in fact, Meng Qiwen did re-weigh it.
Or live uncomfortably here with hatred, disdain, and resentment, find yourself bored, and be a thorn? Or simply let go of these preconceptions and sincerely survive together.
She is not stupid, she slowly pondered the many layers of meaning expressed by Jin Hu, and gradually understood. In comparison, she is still willing to choose to live well.
Tang Li is dead, and that is also her own choice. Since she was able to survive the spread of zombies, she was a person favored by fate, and on the day she was besieged by zombies, Tang Li did have hope of life, she only needed to take a step towards the Buddha's body, and she could live, but she chose to end it herself.
Meng Qiwen let go of the resentment in her heart slightly, but she was not completely freed from the doubt, she just stood up and walked towards the carriage where everyone was.
In the next compartment, Jin Hu had already walked back and sat on the outermost seat.
He saw Meng Qiwen coming over and nodded at her.
Meng Qiwen also nodded at him.
In front, in the corridor, Luo Xue, Chang Bing, Lei Xiao and a few others were having fun with the huskies.
The puppy jumped up and down on the chair, sometimes with an innocent goofy expression.
"Hey, your name is Meng Qiwen, right? Come and tease us with us. Chang Bing looked up and saw Meng Qiwen and beckoned to her.
Huskies, as a well-known dog that "doesn't know how to take care of the house", saw a stranger coming, ran directly to Meng Qiwen's feet, sniffed it, and then rubbed it on her legs.
"I think we are Xiaoha, even if we encounter an enemy, we will go up and rub it." Luo Xue smiled.
"As long as it's not a zombie!" Chang Bing said.
Meng Qiwen smiled and picked up the cute puppy, while Xiao Ha licked her wrist happily.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Night.
Everyone found a place to rest, Zhou Jitang was in charge of the vigil this night, he climbed on the roof of the bullet train and observed the door.
For the other redundant entrances, Zheng Jieming and others found things during the day and sealed them directly, so that only one person needs to guard the main gate, which is not too big, and basically can complete the task of vigil.
"Speaking of which, this kind of warehouse is the same as the warehouse of the steel plant in the first two days, it is sealed, and the safety is actually very good." Zhou Jitang said to himself, "People should still stay indoors, staying in this kind of room, in essence, there may not be much difference from the apes in the cave on the top of the mountain." ”
He sat in the front of the car for a long time, and then felt a little sore and panicked, stood up, and moved his wrist.
"It's okay if you can stay in this kind of place for a long time, I'm afraid I'm afraid that I will have to leave again in a few days, so I can survive this cold winter!" Zhou Jitang looked bored and talked to himself even more.
"Hello? What are you talking about? A woman's voice rang out from behind.
Zhou Jitang turned around, although the light was dim, he could hear that it was Chang Bing's voice.
"What, I can't sleep, I miss me?" Zhou Jitang was happy, and his spirit was immediately lifted.
Since living in the amusement park, the relationship between the two has greatly advanced, and although Zhou Jitang is usually busy, the two will still stay together when they are free.
In essence, these two people are also extremely similar in terms of their initial life backgrounds: similar experiences and life paths, so that the two of them were finally able to break the initial prejudice (mainly Chang Bing's prejudice against Zhou Jitang) in the apocalypse. She even thinks that the things that Zhou Jitang hated the most before -- loving poverty and saying things that tease her -- have also become advantages.
"So energetic, if you have a place to sit, you have to stand if you don't sit?" Chang Bing asked.
The mode of getting along between the two is always with banter and provocation, and the initiator of the banter is almost always Zhou Jitang, almost every sentence, Zhou Jitang can get into the loophole, and Chang Bing is gradually used to it.
"Where is the place to 'sit'? And if you 'sit' for a long time, isn't it back pain? Zhou Jitang always looked confused in the face of Chang Bing.
"Can you finish your speech?" Chang Bing looked disdainful.
Just as the two were talking, a loud noise suddenly came out of the factory.
"Boom!"
Both stopped talking at the same time.
Zhou Jitang immediately became solemn.
"What's going on?" Chang Bing instinctively grabbed Zhou Jitang's arm.
"Something hit the factory?" Zhou Jitang also wondered, "You go back first, stay in the bullet train and wake up Ming Qi and Huo Gong, the two of them are deputy shifts." ”
The so-called deputy shift is that when you are on duty at night, if something big happens, you can wake up the two people on the deputy shift first.
Chang Bing nodded, turned around and retreated, trying to climb back from the shelf.
And when she turned her head, she felt that in the darkness, there seemed to be a strange person standing on the far roof of the train.
She was startled, froze in place, and then slowly took two steps back, hitting Zhou Jitang.
Zhou Jitang faced forward, thinking that Chang Bing had gotten off the front of the car, and when he was hit in the back, he was naturally startled, turned around suddenly, and almost accidentally hit Chang Bing in the face with his elbow.
"Why didn't you go down? Almost hit you! Zhou Jitang whispered.
"Shh Chang Bing quietly grabbed Zhou Jitang's hand.
Zhou Jitang looked into the distance along the direction of the train, and saw that the distance between the two carriages was indeed in the dimness, and there was indeed a figure standing.
"Don't be afraid, maybe it's a pantograph or something? After all, we are not familiar with this place, I look at you, you be careful and go down first, hurry up and wake up Ming Qi and Huo Gong, I can go over and have a look. Zhou Jitang said.
"Don't go over, you let the two of them go" Chang Bing was worried that something would happen to Zhou Jitang, but she was still selfish.
It's normal, in the apocalypse, who doesn't want their closest people to survive?
Huo Gong and Ming Qi were woken up in a daze, and when they heard that there was a situation, they immediately climbed onto the roof of the car.
"You two stay first, one looking at the main entrance, and the other coming with me to see what is going on over there." Zhou Jitang said, carefully raising the gun.
"I'll go. Could it be the same person who attacked Meng Qiwen before? Ming Qi said.
"It's possible, if we can, catch a live one, but first keep ourselves safe." Zheng Jieming and Ming Qi cautiously moved in the direction of the black shadow.
The figure-like figure of the person in the distance stood there coldly, letting the two of them walk over, not moving, as if they were deliberately provoking.
The roof of the car was not flat, and there was a lot of pantograph equipment, and the two of them walked while poking under their feet to avoid tripping.
But until the two of them walked not far from the dark shadow, the shadow did not move for half a minute.
Zhou Jitang stretched out the muzzle of the gun and poked the black shadow, only to realize that it was a piece of clothing hanging on the pantograph.
"Who hung their clothes here? We didn't see it during the day, but was there then? Zhou Jitang was puzzled.
"A false alarm, it looks like a person from a distance." Ming Qi said, "However, it's a good thing, at least"
Before the words fell, I heard a gunshot at the front of the car behind.
Zhou Jitang and Ming Qi immediately turned back, but saw that Huo Gong, who was supposed to be at the front of the car, had disappeared.
"What the fuck? No way? Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain??? Zhou Jitang was shocked and immediately ran forward.
Ming Qi also followed, but because there were too many obstacles on the roof of the car, he tripped before he ran two steps, and when he got up again, Zhou Jitang had already jumped onto the shelf next to the car and rushed towards the front of the car.
"Careless! Is this someone who designed us to deliberately get a piece of clothing? Zhou Jitang thought to himself, "But if this is the case, the other party is too scheming!"
"Ahh!!!hh A scream came from ahead.
Zhou Jitang heard that this was Huo Gong's voice, he quickened his pace, because the shelf was made of iron, he made a heavy footsteps, and the footsteps made a very loud echo in the factory warehouse.
In the train, Zheng Jieming and others also heard this abnormal sound because they were sleeping relatively lightly.
Zhou Jitang rushed to the end of the iron shelf, and heard Huo Gong's voice on the ground in front of the front of the car, he knew that shooting with a gun would inevitably cause accidental injury, so he directly put the gun behind him, pulled out the knife from his waist, and then jumped directly from the iron frame to the ground.
On the right, a black shadow seemed to be pounced on the ground, and Zhou Jitang shouted and pounced towards the black shadow. But the black shadow didn't seem to be in love, and rushed out of the door.
Zhou Jitang rushed to Huo Gong's side, only to hear Huo Gong lying on the ground and moaning in pain.
"!!"
Zhou Jitang threw away the knife, raised the gun again, and fired at the entrance!
"Your uncle, there's a kind of back!!"
He strafed as he chased out.
Ming Qi finally ran next to Huo Gong, Huo Gong seemed to have been pushed down directly from the roof of the car, the motor car was originally elevated, and it was almost one story high from the roof, if he lay down and landed, he would inevitably hit his head. Ming Qi was worried that rashly helping him up would cause blood pressure problems, so he could only take off his clothes and cover Huo Gong first.
Zheng Jieming and others also rushed out with guns, and in an instant, the survivors in the entire train were on high alert.
"Don't light candles! If the other party has a gun, we are a live target!! Geng Zhi said vigilantly, "Try to lie down as much as possible!" ”
"What's going on? I've been here for so long, and I haven't done anything other than being attacked once! Meng Qiwen thought to himself.
Zhou Jitang rushed out of the door recklessly, but saw that outside the house, there seemed to be someone standing outside the door in the dark.
"That's you??" Zhou Jitang shouted angrily, and he was about to shoot when he picked up the gun.
