Chapter 329: Dialogue in the Sky
Li Xuan woke up from his coma, smirked, crashed into the wall, and then stopped at the moment he was about to hit it.
Liu Qianwen and Fang Xinping watched Li Xuan's movements in horror, and Zhuang Yi cautiously took Wang Chengnan back a few steps and called Lei Xiao to his side in a low voice.
He ...... What's wrong? ”
Liu Qianwen asked Fang Xinping.
Next, Li Xuan turned his head, looked at Liu Qianwen, walked to her side with a smile, and sat down.
He just looked at her stupidly and didn't speak.
"Li Xuan?" Liu Qianwen softly tentatively called his name.
But he didn't answer, just giggled.
His brain appears to have been damaged.
He ...... Could it be...... What's that?? Liu Qianwen asked Fang Xinping.
Fang Xinping pursed his lips and shook his head.
Perhaps this is a side effect of the electric shock.
――――――――――――――――
Zheng Jieming and Zhou Jitang, one carrying a bazooka and the other carrying a small bag containing ammunition, climbed up the ascending slope little by little, and soon reached the apex of the slope.
It was very windy and cool.
"You know what...... When you went out, we had this situation in the Anping Lake community, and we escaped from the roof of the building. Zhou Jitang said.
"Hmm. I heard Chang Bing say it later. ”
"At that time, Dong Yuan almost died, and we slipped through the wires to the opposite side of the building." Zhou Jitang said, stopping at the highest point of the roller coaster, almost lying on it, looking around.
The sky was still pitch black, and the whole city was pitch black.
From time to time, the voice of a zombie could be heard in the distance, and every now and then there was a scream - it was the scream of a Witch, which came from a far, far away, and the sound was very small.
The east has not yet begun to shine, and there is still some time before dawn.
The two of them unconsciously stayed at the top for a while, as if sensing the changes of all things in heaven and earth.
The two then proceeded cautiously over the apex and began to descend along the track.
At the height of the track, they always have the illusion that they will be dragged down the track by a force -- this illusion is like a person walking quickly to an unopened downward escalator, although the elevator is not opened, but when he takes the first step, the brain will still involuntarily think that the elevator is moving down, which is the most likely time to fall and be injured.
The two of them adapted to this illusion, and continued down until they reached the lowest point.
Not far ahead is the Great Loop.
Zheng Jieming asked Zhou Jitang to stop, and he first looked along the top, and then returned.
"We can't continue to walk along the loop, it's better to be able to jump straight over." Zheng Jieming observed the loop and said.
"Where to jump??" When Zhou Jitang heard his suggestion, his hands immediately sweated.
"This loop goes around a circle, there is always an intersection point, just go directly from the intersection point to the place where the loop goes downhill, just up in front, you look to the left."
There is indeed such an intersection point when the roller coaster goes around, but there is still a certain distance between the two places on this track, and it is not only difficult to jump over in the air, but also requires a lot of courage.
"That's it...... Can't you just follow the track? Zhou Jitang asked.
"You may not be able to see it here, but I saw it in the past, and this access passage will be cut off a little further up. Have you noticed that the access passage of this loop is climbed up from the middle pillar? We can't climb directly to the vault of the loop on this passage - unless we venture up and down the track twice. Zheng Jieming explained.
It turns out that the maintenance lane of this roller coaster does not exactly coincide with the track, which is also easy to understand, the car passes the track upside down with inertia, but they cannot walk through the track by inertia. Geng Zhi didn't think of this, but he thought that one could drill up the track, and when the loop came down, and then drill back, but it was also extremely risky.
As for the maintenance channel, it is actually designed in sections, and if the maintenance worker wants to overhaul the middle section, there is a route to go up directly, and there is no need to slowly climb over from the beginning of the track.
“…… That's fine. I listen to you. Zhou Jitang said.
The two arrived at the position where they could jump to the opposite loop, Zheng Jieming observed carefully, this distance seems to be the length of a bed, far away, close or near, it is definitely possible to jump over directly, but the strength must be grasped well, neither too hard, nor too insufficient.
"You carry the bazooka on your back, I lean the backpack of ammunition behind me, I'll go first." Zheng Jieming said, "After I pass, move down a bit, and you can come with me." ”
Zhou Jitang nodded, he felt a little nervous.
Zheng Jieming also felt this way, and his palms had begun to sweat.
He took a good look at his position, let out a long breath, stood up straight, and then jumped over with a sharp force.
He pounced on the opposite track, grabbed the railing, and hung it in mid-air.
"Are you alright!?" Zhou Jitang shouted nervously.
Zheng Jieming didn't bother to answer, and waited until he found his footing and climbed up to stand firm before answering, "Okay." I'm fine, you wait for me to go down and make room for you. ”
Next, Zhou Jitang also successfully jumped over.
"Doesn't look like Superman." Zheng Jieming said jokingly.
Zhou Jitang's face was black.
The rest of the road was much easier, they didn't have to walk around the roller coaster, they just had to go to the far end, they found a suitable corner, which was close to the stone arch and no longer had any obstruction.
Zheng Jieming helped Zhou Jitang load the ammunition, and Zhou Jitang lay on the track, set up the bazooka steadily, and aimed it at the stone arch.
"I launched."
"Be accurate."
Zhou Jitang aimed extremely cautiously, these two rounds of ammunition were the only ones they had left, if this plan was not successful, a large number of zombies would still drive straight in, making it more difficult for several people trapped on the roller coaster to escape.
Zhou Jitang's first ammunition was aimed at the left side of the stone arch, and the lower left side of the arch was damaged, and some of the stones fell to the ground, but it was not enough to seal the intersection.
The two of them then fired a second rocket, this time to the right side of the aim, and Zhou Jitang hit the upper right side of the arch with a slight twist.
This time, the roof of the arch finally collapsed, essentially blocking the road.
There are still zombies that can get through the cracks, but there are a lot fewer of them.
"Considered a success?" Zhou Jitang asked.
"Well, you're doing a good job." Zheng Jieming said, he didn't seem to show much joy of success, "Observe and observe, and by the way, recover your strength and climb back." ”
The two of them completed their task and did not rush back, but stayed where they were, continuing to observe the situation of the arch.
It's not much use to rush back, now it's just to avoid more zombies coming in, and everyone needs to get out of this roller coaster, and they need to kill the zombies below - this is not easy to do at night.
In a sense, they still have to wait for their chance.
"You know, I've always suspected you of killing Mazzie in the past, and I've never trusted you." Zhou Jitang said.
"It's over."
"Actually, when I think about it now, I couldn't accept that the world had changed like this."
"Hmm."
"Actually, I would rather die myself at that time...... I can't bear ......," Zhou Jitang continued, "I've been thinking about it for a few days in my own room in the small building, but in fact, it's not about whether I trust you or not, the fundamental reason is that I can't accept all the reality. ”
"Do you accept it now?" Zheng Jieming asked.
"I can't accept it...... But accepted. ”
"You're saying two things."
"Hmm."
"I don't resent you, it's not easy for everyone to live, it's not easy for yourself, and it's not easy for others." Zheng Jieming said, "Even those who took our lives, I don't hate them so much. ”
"What?" Zhou Jitang was puzzled.
"Don't get me wrong, not hating is not hating. But when the other side attacks us, we should fight back, and if necessary, we should fight back. Zheng Jieming added coldly.
There was a brief silence between the two.
"Let's go back, this entrance is basically sealed, go back and find a chance to break through." Zheng Jieming said.
"Okay." Zhou Jitang replied, and then continued to speak while walking back along the track, "You seem to be more accustomed to this environment. ”
Zheng Jieming thought about it and didn't know how to pick it up.
He wasn't more accustomed to the environment, and he couldn't figure it out himself, as if he was becoming more and more numb as more people died.
I don't want more people to die, but the more this environment is, the more extreme people seem to become.
One mystery after another in my heart gradually became unimportant.
In biology, if the environment is superior, cells tend to multiply; In a harsh environment, cells tend to live forever.
Zheng Jieming thinks that perhaps the weakness of emotions and emotions is precisely the stress response of human beings in order to adapt to this apocalypse.
"Maybe it's because of my earliest coma, so I've already walked in the ghost gate once, so it's relatively better." Zheng Jieming prevaricated.
Zhou Jitang snorted and stopped talking.
The two followed the same path, jumped over the big loop, and returned to the crowd.
"I saw the explosion, you made it, congratulations." Geng Zhi greeted the two happily.
Zhou Jitang nodded a little deeply, he directly bypassed Geng Zhi on the track, and carefully moved to Chang Bing's side.
"Huh? What's wrong? Chang Bing looked at Zhou Jitang, and she seemed a little strange when she saw Zhou Jitang.
"Nothing." Zhou Jitang said.
But the next second, he was on the roller coaster track, took her in his arms, hugged her tightly, and didn't say a word.
