Afternoon of April 26, 2023

A red SUV sped through the desert, and the speed was so fast that a spectacular cloud of sand was lifted behind the car. The "squeak" off-road vehicle stopped with a flick of its tail in the screeching sound of sudden braking, Vincent took out the map and studied it carefully and finally determined his position, he looked into the distance, now he has reached the edge of the desert, there are many small stones on the ground in addition to sand, and withered yellow weeds can be seen everywhere, strictly speaking, this is no longer a desert, but the Gobi Desert.

"I've been eating compressed biscuits for a few days in a row, and a bird is fading out of my mouth, it's time to find something else to eat, and I must eat meat for dinner today." Vincent slammed on the accelerator after saying something to himself, and the car slammed out, driving forward for about 40 minutes, and a fat hare appeared in Vincent's eyes.

He immediately stopped the car, then took his crossbow from the back seat of the car and loaded a crossbow, then he took out his pistol, opened the bullet safe, and then pinned the triangular stab to his waist, and when everything was ready, he took the crossbow and got out of the car, and chased the hare in the direction where the hare had disappeared.

After about 5 minutes of walking, Vincent saw the hare again, he approached cautiously, and when he was still 20 meters away from the hare, he raised his bow and crossbow and pointed an arrow at the hare, and the process was extremely skillful. An arrow hit, Vincent ran forward excitedly, first pulled out the crossbow arrow and inserted it back into the quiver behind his back, and then he carried the hare in his hand, and whispered happily: "What a fat guy, at least 4 pounds, he has a good mouth at night, hehe." ”

Just as he was carrying the hare and was about to go home, suddenly a scream came from the front of him, "Ah......" Vincent stopped and looked ahead suspiciously, "Huh? Did I have auditory hallucinations? Why do you seem to hear a woman's scream? As soon as he thought about it, there was another scream in front of him, and this time he was sure that he had heard correctly, and quickly took out a small backpack from his back, which he had specially put his prey, and he quickly stuffed the hare into it, and then put the backpack on his back, reloaded the bow with a crossbow arrow, and ran quickly to the place where the sound came.

This time he didn't run long before he came to the place of the incident, and he carefully lay down in the grass to observe the scene not far away, and the scream was made by a girl, no more than 20 years old, who was sitting on the ground with a pale face, her eyes full of horror. In front of her was a teenager up to 16 years old with a wooden stick in his hand, who was holding a stick in both hands to protect the girl behind him, and in front of the boy were 6 infected zombies.

I saw that the man and the woman were leaning against a big stone with their backs, and the front was firmly surrounded by 6 zombies, although the young man was desperately dancing with a wooden stick to stop the zombies from approaching, but Vincent could see that the young man had run out of oil and dried up, and the fall was a matter of two or three minutes. The first encounter with a human other than him made Vincent very excited, and for whatever reason, he still planned to save them.

Thinking of this, he jumped out of the grass, raised his bow and crossbow to the head of a zombie is an arrow, the arrow directly penetrated the zombie's head, Vincent casually threw away the already empty bow and crossbow, and then took out a pistol, and pointed at the zombie "Bang, bang, bang" is three point shots, so close to the distance, the powerful Desert Eagle blew the heads of the three zombies into pieces on the spot, the heads of the three zombies were like bursting watermelons, the brains flew everywhere, and the young man who bore the brunt of it was splashed all over his face.

At this time, Vincent had already arrived in front of the last two zombies, only to see him run over and kick a zombie to the ground, and then quickly pulled out the triangular thorn with his other hand and pierced it into the eye socket of the other zombie, the sharp triangular thorn stabbed into its eye socket and easily penetrated its skull and exposed from behind, and the pale yellow brain pulp accompanied by dark purple blood fluttered to the ground. Vincent didn't stop pulling out the stinger, then the zombie who fell to the ground just sat up, Vincent stepped on the zombie's chest and knocked it to the ground again, he didn't care about the zombie's struggle, the expressionless general thorn inserted into the forehead of the last zombie, and the spur was pulled out after a hard twist in it.

Vincent saw that there was a lot of dark purple blood and gray and yellow brains left on the thorns, so he rubbed the zombie corpse vigorously with the thorns, and it was not until the thorns were completely clean that he remembered the two people he had just saved.

After General Vincent's thorn and pistol were put away, he found that the two of them were holding on to the stone and vomiting bile, Vincent shook his head, turned around and picked up the bow and crossbow that he had just lost, turned around and saw that the two were still vomiting, he couldn't help but tease: "Hey, I said you two have vomited enough?" I can't stand killing a few zombies, I really doubt how you got to where you are today. ”

At this time, the girl finally relieved a little, although her face was still not particularly good-looking, she whispered: "After the disaster, my father took us to this Gobi Desert far away from the city, my father is a photographer, especially likes to photograph the scenery of the Gobi Desert, so he once built a small house here, which stored enough food for us to eat for two years. Last year, he said he wanted to go to the city to see what was going on outside, but he never came back. Before he went out, he told us not to look for him if he didn't come back, we knew that he must have been killed, and we had no choice but to wait. ”

The girl paused and continued, "It wasn't until we ran out of food in our house two days ago that we had to venture out to find food, and this is the first time we've come out, so I saw you just ...... We can't stand that just then. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is He Yuqian, 18 years old, and this is my younger brother He Yutian, 16 years old. ”
