Chapter 20 Bridges
Zheng Jieming leaned against the wall on the second floor, looking at the surging tide of corpses below, some of those zombies gathered around the girl's zombies, constantly clutching the walls and glass doors; Some are biting and trampling each other; More rushed directly into the alley, like a torrent of floodwater.
The girl zombie was at his feet, her red eyes looked at Zheng Jieming viciously and coldly, howling and trying to climb up, her claws kept grabbing the glass door of the coffee house, making a terrible rattling sound. Zheng Jieming was frightened himself, and he couldn't hear this kind of voice, he shivered all over, got goosebumps, and felt for a moment that he might as well wipe his neck here and kill himself.
But reason still prevailed over fear, Zheng Jieming raised his head, trying not to look down at the corpses, let alone look at the zombies of the girl who only wanted to die. He was surprised to find that the bone chopper had been firmly in his hand as he climbed the awning of the mill iron café, and he held it tightly as if he had held an oar in a boat that was about to be overturned by a huge wave—although the oars seemed to be useless at this time.
He looked to the right, and there was a balcony on the right.
"If you can climb into the building, will you be able to get in? Can you wait for the corpse tide to pass before going downstairs? Zheng Jieming thought, bit the knife in his mouth, and walked to the right with his free right hand.
He rubbed to the side of the balcony, grabbed the flange of the balcony wall with his right hand, turned around, and faced the balcony, but was surprised to find that a large number of zombies had poured into the house on the second floor! The zombies in the house found him and immediately rushed to the window, Zheng Jieming quickly grabbed the edge of the balcony and dodged sideways, and the zombies rushed downstairs.
I could only go in the direction of the alley.
He tilted his head sideways, little by little, on the rim that was only the width of the sole of his foot to his right. Since he was now facing the floor with his back to the street, he had to keep his whole body as close to the floor as possible in order to maintain his balance. And to do this, his legs are bent to the side, and his hands are raised above his head, like a gecko moving laterally.
On the straight horizontal edge, it was easy to rub it over, but Zheng Jieming soon faced the first difficulty - the corner of the horizontal edge.
Now he was on the front of the building, and to reach the side of the building, the horizontal edge itself was narrow, and it was even more difficult to settle on the corner. Zheng Jieming only complained in his heart, in case one of them was unstable and fell into the tide of corpses, I am afraid that he would be bitten in an instant.
There is no way, Huashan is a road, he can only go over like this. Zheng Jieming's hands were covered with sweat, and he could only wipe some dust on the wall.
He carefully grabbed his right hand to the sunny corner of the building, rubbed it millimeter by millimeter, and rubbed his right foot against the edge of the building on the side. Then he slowly retracted his left foot.
At the moment when he just came over, Zheng Jieming's left foot slipped and his body tilted to the left, almost falling down. The knife in his mouth loosened, touched the rim, and fell into the surging tide of corpses.
A zombie was hit by a knife, and as soon as it raised its head and roared, the zombie behind it pushed it down and stepped on the ground. Countless zombies trampled over it.
Zheng Jieming carefully adjusted his breathing for a while and continued to rub to the right.
It has reached the rightmost end of the building, which does not continue to the corner of the north side, but ends at the northernmost end of the east side wall. In the alley below, zombies are still flooding.
Zheng Jieming looked at the front right of the bungalows, and if he jumped hard, he should be able to jump over.
He looked up and noticed a mess of wires hanging from the poles, and many of them were connected to the back of the office building—this kind of old bungalow area, where private wires and network cables were commonplace.
"There's a power outage anyway." Zheng Jieming thought to himself, grabbed the wire hanging on his right side, and pulled it down, feeling very strong.
"If I had fallen, I would have left it here today." Zheng Jieming slowly straightened up, stood still, and brewed for a while.
"Let's go!" He gritted his teeth, grabbed the wires in his hands, and swung his whole body towards the roof of the bungalow area, like Tarzan of the apes in the city.
He slammed into the roof of the bungalow and rolled on the asbestos tiles several times before stopping.
Zheng Jieming stood up, escaped from the crisis, and felt reborn. Walk north of the bungalow area to reach the medical school.
"I can't think of a road that I can't walk, but I can walk on the roof!" Zheng Jieming took a step and ran forward, but before he ran two steps, he stepped through the asbestos tile and his foot sank into the roof.
"Huh!?"
A woman's voice came from the room beneath her feet. Zheng Jieming was afraid that she would treat herself as a zombie and cut off her own feet, so he quickly collected his feet and shouted: "Ah! Sorry, sorry! I'm not a zombie! ”
When he retracted his feet, he looked down through the hole in the asbestos tiles, and the woman below also looked up in horror. She wears a black hoodie with a hat.
It was the hoodie woman who snatched his backpack from the side of the bus.
"It's you!" The hoodie woman was aggressive, "What are you running upstairs!" ”
"Yo, it's really a narrow road. Backpacks, batons, and kitchen knives are all handy, right? ”
"Huh! It's not good to meet you! Last time I met a gangster! This time I encountered a wave of corpses! Even the roof of the building collapsed for me! The hoodie woman looked unhappy.
"You live here?" Zheng Jieming was curious about this woman.
"You're just living here! Your whole family lives here! ”
"What's so bad about living here? As soon as it was demolished, it was immediately a nouveau riche. Zheng Jieming thought to himself that anyway, you are in the house, I am on the roof, and you can't reach me, so I simply joked with you.
The hoodie girl saw that she was being led by Zheng Jieming to speak, and the boss was reluctant to ask Zheng Jieming, "What are you going to do?" Why walk upstairs? ”
"Of course it's hiding from zombies! Otherwise, who has nothing to do, walk the beams and tiles, roosters and dogs steal! Zheng Jieming's implication is to satirize the hoodie girl for snatching her things.
"Forget it, ignore you! I'm still in a hurry! The hoodie woman left these words and flashed into the next room.
Zheng Jieming saw the hoodie girl walking away, got up and continued to hurry, jumped over a few roofs, and met a patio, where the roof happened to be made at a right angle, and the patio span was large, and he had no way or dared to jump over directly.
Zheng Jieming looked left and right, and it was difficult to get around, after all, there was still a distance between buildings.
Under the patio, there happened to be a long wooden plank standing, Zheng Jieming had the idea of the plank, thinking that if there was a way to use it, maybe he could cross the patio without a detour?
Crash!
There was a sound of glass breaking downstairs, Zheng Jieming squatted and looked down, only to see the hoodie girl jumping out of the window, rolling, and standing firmly in the patio.
Zheng Jieming hehe, hehe, grabbed a small pebble from his hand, and threw it at the hoodie's head.
The hoodie girl was about to continue running forward when she felt something touch her head, and immediately turned back nervously, and looked at it for a long time and saw nothing.
"Hey! Here's it! Zheng Jieming smiled and waved his hand to the hoodie girl to say hello.
The hoodie woman looked up and saw Zheng Jieming. As the brim of her hat blocked her view, she angrily pulled her hat back. Long hair spilled out from under the hat, jet black and shiny. Look at it again, the face is beautiful, and the white skin can be broken.
So beautiful!
Zheng Jieming couldn't help but sigh secretly.
"I'm messing with you! Why smash me! The hoodie woman looked angry.
"Nothing, nothing! Just see that you are also running, say hello. Zheng Jieming said with a smile.
"Then I'm leaving!" The hoodie girl turned her head and was about to run.
"Oops! Wait, wait! Zheng Jieming hurriedly called out to her, thinking in his heart, if she really ran away, I would really have to go down.
"One last word." The hoodie woman looked sideways at Zheng Jieming.
"Hand me that plank for me!" Zheng Jieming pointed in the direction of the plank.
The hoodie woman took a step back, looked at Zheng Jieming's hand, and found that it was a long wooden plank.
"Cut! Neuropathy! The hoodie turned and walked away.
"Hey, hey! Hey..."Zheng Jieming saw her leave, his heart was full of frustration, and he got up to check if there was any way to jump to the other side.
"Hey! Do you want to use this to go to the other side? Suddenly, the hoodie girl's voice sounded from below, and it turned out that she had turned back again.
"Yes, yes!" Zheng Jieming replied repeatedly, for fear that she would run away again.
"You're going to medical school, aren't you?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"Forget it, this girl will help you."
The hoodie woman lifted the wooden board and handed it to Zheng Jieming. Passing this plank from the bottom to the top takes a lot of effort for the person below to bear all the weight.
Zheng Jieming took the plank and placed it between the two roofs, just to build a bridge.
"Alright, then I'm leaving!" The hoodie woman turned around and left.
Then it folded back again.
"Why are you back again?" Zheng Jieming was stepping on the wooden plank, trembling to maintain his balance.
"Hmph, I'm here to see if you will fall, so clap your hands and applaud!" Hoodie woman back mouth.
"Haha! Thank you so much! Zheng Jieming was happy, he knew that the hoodie girl was actually worried about falling down.
After passing the plank, Zheng Jieming was about to stretch out his head to thank him, but found that the hoodie girl had disappeared.
"Okay, thanks!" Zheng Jieming pulled the plank and continued to run north. I used the planks a few more times along the way.
Beidu Second Medical College, just ahead! Seeing that he was about to reach his destination, Zheng Jieming's heart was full of joy, he was still on the roof, leaning slightly in the direction of the alley, and found that the zombie tide had blocked the back door. He had to stay away from the back door, intending to climb over the wall and enter the hospital.
The walls of the medical school are very high, and even if Zheng Jieming stands on the roof, he has to climb about 4 meters. In fact, in the eyes of people in medical school, this is not a wall, but a floor on the back side of a medical student residence hall. In order to prevent the students from sneaking out to play in the middle of the night, all the windows on the bungalow side of the dormitory building were blocked with bricks.
Zheng Jieming sighed, this is to force me to play rock climbing!
He placed the plank against the wall and tried to climb up with the height of the plank.
What Zheng Jieming didn't see was that on the other side of the alley, a special zombie was climbing onto the roof along the obstacles piled up by the residents.
