The shining lights tore through the silent night, everyone sat in the car with rifles and fell asleep, and Zhang Xiaoqiang sat in the bumpy off-road vehicle and watched the darkness outside.

The convoy did not return the same way, but in another direction, when they came, they passed several settlements on the way, these settlements have not been cleaned up, zombies are densely packed, it doesn't matter during the day, it may be dangerous at night, Zhang Xiaoqiang gave up returning to the base, trying to find a secluded place to deal with the night.

One of Zhang Xiaoqiang's team members was a local, and he knew a relatively safe place, so Zhang Xiaoqiang decided to take people there for the night, and then return to the prison tomorrow morning to take out the arms and ammunition.

After leaving the prison, the convoy drove for about half an hour and then drove up a small hill, at the top of which was an old bungalow of unknown age, which had long since become ruins, with half-human-high weeds growing between the ruins, and broken bricks scattered everywhere.

There are a lot of bowl-thick trees around the ruins, but the leaves have fallen, and there are no tree species to see when it is dark, as everyone goes down to the car, blown by the night wind on the mountain, the drowsy crowd begins to wake up, some people move the materials and cooking utensils on the car from the car, some people use flashlights to collect dry branches and wood on the mountain, two lightly injured and two seriously injured are also helped to the ground to find a place to sit down and watch everyone busy.

Not long after, the blazing bonfire was lit, someone set up a cauldron on the fire, poured water into the rice, someone cut a bag of pickle gnocchi evenly into four parts with a knife, and then sent a copy to everyone, this quarter of the pickle gnocchi is today's dish, even Zhang Xiaoqiang is not excluded, he took out the lunch box from the shoulder bag and put in the quarter of the pickle gnocchi, looking at the bonfire and waiting for the meal.

Except for the two sentry men, the others sat by the fire to keep warm, and the third son was very abnormal, a little restless, he would check whether the sentry team members had concealed themselves well, and then he would check whether the Type 92 infantry guns hanging on the truck were hanging tightly, and then find two stones to put under the gun wheels to feel at ease, and then go to check the injuries of the light and serious wounded until the rice was cooked...... During the meal, Zhang Xiaoqiang saw two people holding a branch and a string of red meat pieces on the fire, he was a little strange, looking at the red meat slices, he suddenly remembered the big rats that they fought today, and some of the rats were torn apart by the air flow of high-explosive bombs.

"Is this rat meat? Can you eat it? Looking at the two roasted elated guys, Zhang Xiaoqiang asked curiously.

"I can eat it, the meat is very tender, we all have the habit of eating rat meat in our village, I am from the snack to the big, the rats in the field have been eaten by the people of our village......"

Listening to a team member with rat meat, Zhang Xiaoqiang was thundered, not for them to eat rat meat, but to hear them say that the rats in the whole village and the voles in the field were all eaten by them?

You must know that rats are a tenacious species that can survive even if the world is destroyed, but now Zhang Xiaoqiang actually heard that this powerful creature would be eaten extinct, and just when he felt incredible, a burst of barbecue aroma came...... Eating the rat meat in his mouth, Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't feel disgusted, but felt that he hadn't eaten this kind of fresh barbecue for a long time, and he couldn't even remember it for a long time.

Looking at Zhang Xiaoqiang's sweet food, the others also watched the two people who were roasting and swallowing saliva, one of them saw that everyone was looking at him, so he laughed, and took out two skinned and tightly wrapped two mice in a plastic bag from the backpack on his shoulder.

Everyone stepped forward one after another, and after a while, the rats were cleanly separated, and the branches with rat meat stretched out to the bright red bonfire, looking at the team members roasting rat meat in front of him, Zhang Xiaoqiang thought of the mountain of rat corpses and began to think...... When he came back to his senses, he looked up and saw Sanzi standing in the distance looking at him, as if he had something to say to himself, Zhang Xiaoqiang got up and walked towards Sanzi, the two of them stood on the edge of the fire, and behind them was endless darkness.

"Brother Cockroach...... I...... I'm afraid...... It's not good ......."

Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't speak, just listened to Sanzi's statement, Sanzi thought that his performance today was very poor, he was thinking about whether another person would perform better, seeing those dead and injured players, he felt guilty, he felt that he had no face to see those injured players, let alone the face to work in the position of this captain.

Zhang Xiaoqiang patted him on the shoulder and said, "You paid so much tuition today, if you don't do it, won't those team members die in vain?" Remember, there are no immortals in war. ”

After saying that, Zhang Xiaoqiang turned around and left, the third son was still standing there and didn't know what he was thinking, as the firewood burned out, the figure of the third son was slowly covered by darkness...... After a tired day, Zhang Xiaoqiang let all the team members go to sleep, and he also found a broken wall to lean on it and closed his eyes, a soft body slowly leaned on his left arm, smelling the familiar chime fragrance on her body, he knew that Shangguan Qiaoyun was sitting next to him, he didn't move anymore, and fell asleep with the horn gun in his hand.

Zhang Xiaoqiang, who was asleep, felt that someone was shaking him, he woke up suddenly, pulled out the pistol on his waist and opened his eyes.

The bonfire was still burning, thinking that it was the firewood added by the brothers who were keeping watch at night, and the burning bonfire was full of tired combat team members, and Zhang Xiaoqiang saw Shangguan Qiaoyun's shining big eyes by the bright light of the bonfire, Shangguan Qiaoyun saw Zhang Xiaoqiang wake up, pointed to the bottom of the mountain and whispered in his ear: "I always want to shoot over there......"

Before Shangguan Qiaoyun finished speaking, Zhang Xiaoqiang felt that a sense of crisis was coming, he pulled Shangguan Qiaoyun to get up from the ground, and called all the team members up by the bonfire.

"What's wrong, Brother Cockroach?" Seeing Zhang Xiaoqiang waking everyone up in a low voice, he also asked in a low voice.

"There's something down there, watch out." Zhang Xiaoqiang whispered to Sanzi, and after Sanzi heard it, he began to organize everyone to prepare guns and bullets, and he touched the two people who were sentry...... The campfire had been extinguished by cold water, and it was dark all around, although some of the members of the combat squad were leaning against the side of the car with Bayi rifles, quietly listening to the movement down the mountain.

The 250 cartridge chain on the Type 53 heavy machine gun was ready, and the thick muzzle of the gun was aimed straight at the bushes below the mountain, and at the quietest moment of the hour, there was no roaring of flames, no snoring of the sleeping team members, not a single person exhaled even a little heavily, they were all waiting quietly.

Suddenly, a black shadow slowly touched it, and the direction in which the black shadow came was the dark whistle over there, and Zhang Xiaoqiang called softly.

"Brother Cockroach...... It's me! The third son returned in a low voice, he touched Zhang Xiaoqiang's side, and in the darkness Zhang Xiaoqiang couldn't see what the expression of the third son in front of him was.

"Brother cockroach, the two brothers who are on guard are finished......" Zhang Xiaoqiang immediately interrupted the third son's whispered narration and asked him, "Do you know what it is made of?" ”

Sanzi was silent for a few seconds, "It's human...... It was a living man, and the two brothers had their necks wiped and stripped naked, and there was nothing left, not even their shoes. ”

Hearing the third son say this, Zhang Xiaoqiang breathed a sigh of relief, he was most afraid of encountering mutant beasts at night in the wild, but people were the ones he was least afraid of, with a rifle in his hand, a brother under his hand, and a heavy machine gun by his side, who else could come to him to curry favor?

He whispered: "It's easy to do it if it's a person, no matter who it is, I want him to repay twice as much as the person who touched me." After speaking, he took out two glass bottles of liquor and handed them to Sanzi.

Sanzi fumbled and took the two bottles, and a strong smell of gasoline reached his nose, and he was about to ask a question when he touched the cloth that was wet with gasoline at the mouth of the bottle.

"You just hide aside, and when you hear a movement, you light a fire and throw it out, and then they will be in the light and we will be in the dark."
