Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Short-Haired Young Woman
The young woman with short hair didn't seem to expect three strangers to appear in front of her, obviously stunned, but her speed did not stop, at this time, the closest zombie to her was only three or four meters away, if one was not careful, she would definitely be surrounded by zombies.
"What should I do?" Seeing such a situation, Guo Tang suddenly became anxious.
"You two run back to the gazebo you had before." Mo Chen said in a deep voice. 、
About thirty meters behind them there was a small gazebo.
Although they knew that they would encounter zombies when they ran back, they would definitely be fewer than the zombies in front of them, so Guo Tang and the others stopped talking, but turned around and ran wildly towards the same road.
At this time, I only heard a "plop" sound, and the young woman who was running forward desperately tripped over the stone on the ground, and then the whole person fell directly to the ground.
And in this gap, the zombie closest to her behind her had already chased after her.
"It's over, it's over." Li Ruo's heart sank to the bottom.
I didn't expect an ordinary accident, a normal attraction to be like this because of carelessness.
However, to her surprise, the expected bite did not appear, but the zombie behind her obviously smashed on her heel.
What's going on? The momentary astonishment made her forget to get up.
"What are you doing? Still not running? ”
The strong, low shout of the man in front of her woke her up, and she quickly struggled to get up from the ground, and then ran forward desperately again, but curiosity made her look back in between flights.
And the dagger on the zombie's forehead finally made her understand that it was the man not far ahead who saved her.
At this time, the man in front of her flew out several flying knives, and she heard it clearly, and every knife sound could make a zombie fall behind her.
"It's strong, it's accurate!" Li Ruo was surprised in his heart.
She knew that if she wanted to knock down the zombies, she would not be able to do it, but also that the person who threw the knife had strong arm strength.
Could this man be an Awakened One?
Several zombies tripped over the zombies behind them while falling to the ground, which finally allowed Li Ruo to distance himself from the zombies behind him.
"Wait for me at the wall behind the gazebo, there is an escape route." Li Ruo shouted at the other party.
Mo Chen knew that there was no need for the other party to lie to himself, so he turned his head and ran in the direction of the pavilion.
The two of them ran as hard as they could, and soon left the zombie some distance behind, and by the time they reached the place where the wall was, the zombie had not even turned a corner.
There was a sewer cover in the corner of the wall, Li Ruo opened the cover and jumped down directly, and then shouted below, "Jump down." ”
Mo Chen looked below, and saw that the bottom was relatively flat, and it was not high, and there was no danger, the zombies were already about to catch up, and he didn't care about the others, so he immediately said to Guo Tang and the two, "Jump down." ”
Guo Tang jumped first, Li Xiaoyin jumped later, because there were people below to answer, so although it looked a little taller, Guo Tang and the two did not have a sprained foot.
Mo Chen was the last to jump down, of course, he hung it on the top first, and only jumped down after he covered the cover back.
After the cover was closed, it became pitch black underneath, of course, it was not a problem for Mo Chen, but Guo Tang and the others couldn't, basically they couldn't see their five fingers.
"Go ahead, don't let the zombies smell us, or we'll be in trouble if we lift the cover." After Mo Chen jumped off, Li Ruo hurriedly said, but then added awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I didn't bring a flashlight, we can only touch ......"
Before she could finish her sentence, a light was already lit up in the sewers.
The flashlight that Mo Chen had found before had a role.
At this time, the footsteps and low roars of zombies were heard overhead.
There was no need for Li Ruo to remind him anymore, several people had already quickened their pace and moved forward, after all, if the zombie lifted off the cover and jumped in, it would be a big trouble.
Mo Chen looked around as he walked, this should be a sewer, but all the materials were new, obviously a sewer that had not been built for a long time and had not yet been put into use.
After walking for more than ten meters, Li Ruocai slowed down and said to Mo Chen as he walked, "You are the Awakened One." ”
There was great reverence in the words.
"Hmm." Mo Chen was noncommittal.
"My name is Li Ruo, and it's a pleasure to meet you." Li Ruo stopped, then stretched out his right hand.
"Mo Chen." Mo Chen responded, but in the face of this girl with short hair and average appearance but extremely capable, he did not stretch out his right hand.
The dream in his mind made him remember a rule, that is, not to shake hands with strangers in the last days.
Li Ruo was a little embarrassed, but it quickly became natural, she put down her right hand, and then said very sincerely, "Thank you for saving me." ”
"You're welcome, I just wanted to know what was going on in the playground." Mo Chen said.
"Oh, is it? Then you've found the right person. Li Ruo shrugged her shoulders, the embarrassment just now seemed to make her quickly adapt to Mo Chen's personality that seemed to be straightforward.
She continued, "Most of the survivors in the playground live in the theater area. ”
"Oh, is there a lot of people in there?" Guo Ju interjected.
"Probably close to two hundred." Li Ruodao, then looked at Guo Tang and Li Xiaoyin, "I don't know what the two sisters call them." ”
Seeing that Li Ruo didn't know herself, Guo Cheng didn't care, because she wasn't a big star in the first place, and now she has no makeup, which is very different from when she wears makeup, so there is nothing abnormal about the other party not knowing herself or not recognizing herself.
Therefore, she replied very calmly, "My name is Guo Tang, and this sister's name is Li Xiaoyin." ”
"Oh, nice to meet you." Li Ruo smiled brightly, but after her smile retracted, she was a little puzzled, "You came in from the outside?" ”
"yes." Guo Tang nodded.
"Have you seen two men, one in his twenties and the other in his thirties and forties?" Li Ruo asked.
"You're talking about Xiaoyue?" Hearing Li Ruo say this, Guo Tang's face darkened a little.
"Xiao Yue, what's wrong with him?" Li Ruo couldn't help asking.
"He died, he was bitten to death by wild dogs." Li Xiaoyin took over the words, and said in a heavy voice.
"Dead?" Li Ruo's voice trembled a little, "What about Adago?" ”
Li Ruo's Ada probably drove away, so Guo Ju responded, "He drove away." ”
"That's fine." Li Ruo smiled bitterly.
Mo Chen knew that Adagor would not survive, because the traffic on the road he was driving to was not smooth, and the road was full of broken cars, and there was basically no way to survive if he was chased by mutated wild dogs.
Of course, the most important thing is that the tires of that car are already out of gas.
But he didn't say that.
After chatting a few more words, Li Ruo realized that Guo Ju and Li Xiaoyin were colleagues of Xiaoyue and Suni, and they came here because they were looking for Suni and other crew members, and it was at this time that she realized that Guo Ju was a star on TV.
"Sister Guo Cheng, I'm really sorry, you've become so beautiful now that I can't recognize you." Li Ruo hurriedly said.
"Don't compliment me." Guo Cheng smiled bitterly, "I heard you say that the situation inside the base is not bad, but how can you be chased by so many zombies?" ”
"You don't know, there is plenty of food in the base, but the only thing missing is water, because the main pure water pipe leading to it has been broken, so we have to come out every few days to ask for water. And this time, we were accidentally surrounded by zombies, and in order for them to leave safely, I had to use my body as bait to attract the zombies. Li Ruo sighed.
"Oh, that's right." Guo Tang nodded.
Mo Chen didn't participate in the conversation of several people, for him, as long as he knew that Suni was still alive and well.
While speaking, several people had already walked to the end of the passage, and Li Ruo said to Mo Chen and the others, "You guys are waiting here, I'll go up and listen to what the movement is." ”
After saying that, she climbed up the ladder of the shaft, listened to the cover for a while, and then made an OK gesture, and then directly lifted the cover and jumped out.
Mo Chen did not hesitate, but climbed out with the other party, because his keen hearing told him that it was very quiet near the cover, and there would be no accidents at all.
The location of the manhole cover is also in a remote corner, and a hundred meters in front of the manhole cover is the theater in the center of the playground, and before this is an open field, when Mo Chen climbed out, he could see two men running quickly in their direction.
One of the two appeared to be holding a machine gun, and the other was presumably holding a long knife.
"Who?" When they were still fifty meters away, the man with the knife asked in a low voice.
"It's me, Li Ruo." Li Ruo replied waving his arm.
"It's Li Ruo, we thought something happened to you, so we were worried about death, and we just said that we should organize people to go out to find you." The man with the knife laughed.
However, the man with the gun did not put the gun down, but pointed at Mo Chen and Guo Tang and Li Xiaoyin, who had just climbed out, and said, "Who are these three people?" ”
"It's Suni's friends, they're here to find Suni." Li Ruoying said.
"Suni? The female star? The man with the gun asked.
"Yes, yes."
"Well, that's okay, you can take them in, but tell them not to cause trouble, everything is in the interests of the base." Said the man with the gun.
"Brother Liu, don't worry, they are also for the survivors who lived, and they won't cause trouble." Li Ruo hurriedly said.
"That's good." As he spoke, the man with the gun put the gun down.
Through this period of observation, Mo Chen found that unlike the other two people with smiling faces, the person with the gun always did not smile, and the most important thing was that he always maintained a distance of three meters from the person with the knife.
Do they belong to two different factions, and one of them has the initiative?
While thinking about this, Mo Chen was already silently following Li Ruo forward.
"Mo Chen, stay away from the person with the gun, at least keep a distance of more than five meters, otherwise he can kill you at any time." Li Ruozai said softly in Mo Chen's ear.
"Huh?" Mo Chen frowned.
"That person's name is Liu Yi." Li Ruo continued.
