Chapter 355: Life
For Zheng Jieming and his group, in the next period of time, everyone's feelings are different.
For Shunqiang, Jin Hu, Ming Qi and others, they don't have to go out to run around during this time, they just stay quietly in the management office, which can be regarded as recuperation.
For Liu Qianwen and Li Xuan, it is no different whether they are besieged by zombies or not--Li Xuan has not regained his senses yet, and he always sits in the room and looks at Liu Qianwen and smirks.
For Geng Zhi, Hua Feng, Zhou Jitang and others, this is an opportunity to reorganize the materials, and a few of them led people to re-concentrate the materials in the management office, and stored more things in the car with full gas -- although there is no schedule, but God knows when they will have to leave? This kind of first-tier city is still too dangerous.
But for many more, they just feel as if they're waiting to die.
In Zheng Jieming's view, these days are so restless, the amusement park is full of zombies on all sides, everyone has no way to go out, he is an active person, suffocating in the yard of the amusement park all day long, feeling both unsafe and depressed.
Every day at noon, he would climb the central tower alone and look around with a telescope to see the surrounding situation, and he would also look at the wreckage of the military vehicle on the bridge twice.
"There is no sign of dissipation...... The speed of migration seems to have slowed down......" Zheng Jieming thought to himself.
He had always had hope for the army, and the more he experienced, the more he hoped that a large number of soldiers would enter the city and rescue everyone at an inadvertent time.
But now, it seems, is no longer possible.
……
Luo Xue also slowly climbed up.
"Hey, what do you want?"
Zheng Jieming put down the binoculars, saw that it was Luo Xue, stood up, and pulled her up.
"You...... How did you climb up...... Not afraid of heights? Zheng Jieming asked.
"Fortunately, I'm not afraid to climb two steps, and I'm idle below, and now I can only be trapped in the management office, and even the scope of action is limited, but fortunately, I'm guarding the amusement park, and I can also go around the yard." Luo Xue cut her hair, and the wind was a little strong above, "I see that you always come up, and I will also come up and take a look." ”
"Hmm......" Zheng Jieming nodded, he paused, suddenly didn't know what topic to talk about, he had an inexplicable sense of nervousness, and only said after a while, "This ...... You can see half of the northern city from here. ”
Luo Xue glanced at him, leaned on the railing, stood up, and looked around.
"It's a pity that they're all zombies." She said, "Get rid of the zombies...... The North City is not bad, quite beautiful, I have never been to such a high place to observe the North City. ”
"Isn't it pretty? There are collapsed buildings everywhere...... It's like a war, and I think the current northern city is really unlivable. Zheng Jieming said a little sneeringly, and then he thought to himself, what am I talking about? The tone was still stiff.
"Am I a little bit bad at chatting?" Zheng Jieming didn't wait for Luo Xue to answer, and asked self-deprecatingly, "Maybe it has become like this in this depressing environment for a long time." ”
"Haha? It's kind of a bit. Luo Xue turned her head, looked at his innocent appearance, smiled, and didn't mind, "But if you want to talk about the air quality in the northern metropolis, it is not livable in the first place, and you have to go to the southern province to be livable." ”
Luo Xue paused for a moment before continuing, "You...... We all have to thank you. ”
"Huh?"
"At that time, if you hadn't gone to the community to rescue me, Hua Xiangjia, Jiang Cai, uncles and aunts, and a group of people, we would definitely have starved to death."
Zheng Jieming shook his head, he thought to himself, if Yu Zekai hadn't asked them to snare the survivors, he might have just let everyone stick to the amusement park in order to seek stability.
Then he would not have been able to save a few of them.
In this way, I have to thank Yu Zekai, who has died, although he is selfish, but indirectly saved the lives of some people -- but Yu Zekai's entanglement with Lucien caused most of these people's lives to be lost.
"It's fine. In fact, everyone is precarious, and it doesn't make sense to thank you or not. Zheng Jieming said.
Luo Xue heard that he spoke with a little negative meaning, thought about it, and looked around casually.
"You know what?" Luo Xue changed the topic, "Actually, before the end of the world, I even hope that there will be this kind of zombie crisis one day." ”
"Why?" Zheng Jieming looked up, a little incomprehensible.
"Can you understand the hard work of an ordinary office worker? Every day I go to and from work, and from time to time I have to work overtime until 10 o'clock, and then I come home and don't want to do anything at night. ”
Zheng Jieming thinks about it, and his life is almost like this.
"When I go back, it's uncomfortable to be quiet, and it's uncomfortable not to be quiet. I'm quite tired from a day's work, and I want to be quiet and quiet, but if I really calm down, it's even more uncomfortable. It's the same with going out to play, if you don't go to work, you may not understand this feeling. Luo Xue said, "That is, sometimes, go to the gym for a run and run a few kilometers to become more comfortable." ”
"It's always good to sweat." Zheng Jieming responded.
"Otherwise, sometimes I watch TV dramas, eagle dramas, and novels at night." Luo Xue said.
"Hmm...... Me too......"
"At that time, I was very fond of watching apocalyptic movies or novels -- not the kind of floods or aliens that instantaneously human beings, but zombie novels." Luo Xue continued, "The zombies in the movie are generally crazy, but the zombie world in the novel, some authors describe it very simply, everyone builds a small base, has nothing to do, grows vegetables, sings, dances, and plays chess, it seems that they are very happy, and there are no zombies; There are also protagonists described by the author who are very powerful, crazy slaughtering zombies, all of them have become superhumans, and there are no zombies or anything, so I thought at the time, I hope that zombies will really appear, at least they will become very free, but the real world has arrived, and I found that this is not the case at all, every day on the verge of death, it would be good to be able to stabilize and survive like now. ”
"Hmm. I know, and I am, really ashamed of myself when I faced this kind of world, when I spent the first day in a coma, and then it took me several days to get used to it. Zheng Jieming remembered that he had been in a coma in the ventilation duct for a long time at the beginning, and he was rescued and in a coma for a long time.
Luo Xue glanced at him and smiled.
"Yes...... Actually, we're all pretty much the same. Merely...... It's a bit 'too free' now...... What I didn't expect was that in the end times, the relationship between people and people seemed to be different. Luo Xue said with some disappointment, "Have you ever wondered what the biggest change in people is after the end of the world?" ”
The biggest change? Human nature? Some people's evil is stirred up? Zheng Jieming thought to himself. Looking back on his experience during this time, it is not that there is no truth, goodness and beauty in the last days, nor that there is no mutual assistance, but that when the living environment becomes extremely difficult, everyone behaves differently -- some people want to do everything possible to extend their lives, regardless of the life and death of others; Others, such as Li Yu, seem to focus more on how to continue the whole team.
He thought that he had forgotten to answer Luo Xue's question.
"......" Luo Xue saw that Zheng Jieming did not answer, and continued to say, "I think the biggest change is that our survival and life have become more tense and stressful. ”
"More nervous?"
"The bad parts of our lives have been destroyed by zombies, but we are still alive, and the good parts of our lives have not all been left......" Luo Xue said, Zheng Jieming noticed that her eyes were very clear.
It is as clear as the surface of a lake.
Zheng Jieming suddenly had a thought in his mind.
She's right...... Am I taking zombies too seriously?
No matter what the world becomes, zombies are rampant, and dead people are more frequent than eating......
Anyway, I am not the only one alive in this world, there are other people, and there are many companions who are struggling to survive.
Other people have become zombies, but we are still "people".
We've got to keep it going...... To continue everything, you have to put life back on track.
At least "seeming" like a normal track!
Everyone should have a little bit of entertainment, a little bit of entertainment, a little bit of life...... Otherwise, it's always tense, and sooner or later it won't be able to hold on, right?
"You say...... What if I called everyone to sit down and play poker right now? Zheng Jieming suddenly asked Luo Xue.
"What?"
"Uh...... It's weird, isn't it? Zheng Jieming suddenly felt that it was really strange for him to say this.
"Haha, what do you mean, do you want everyone to be entertained and divert everyone's attention?" Luo Xue smiled.
"Hmm. It has this meaning. Zheng Jieming nodded.
"Yes!" Luo Xue saw that the clouds on Zheng Jieming's brows seemed to spread a little bit, and she was quite happy, "However, in fact, you don't necessarily have to play cards, it's too deliberate, it's not good to organize everyone to engage in cultural activities in the enterprise, just let everyone sit down very casually, just chat well, alleviate this tense atmosphere, after all, now everyone is trapped here, there is no way to go out, and the rhythm of survival can slow down." ”
"So...... Will it be a good thing to be trapped in an amusement park by zombies? Zheng Jieming responded to Luo Xue with a smile.
"It's okay, we have enough food again, so it's good that we got a lot of it back before you guys."
Zheng Jieming thought for a while and said, "Okay, have you found some peanuts and melon seeds and beer before?" Originally, most of them were saved, but now they are simply taken out and distributed in rations, and they are not staple foods anyway! ”
"A luxury! Otherwise, everyone will always be besieged, and morale will be problematic. Luo Xue was full of interest.
