Chapter 217: Recruitment Plan
Fang Xinping heard Zheng Jieming's shout, knew that something was wrong, and rushed to the toilet, but saw Zheng Jieming lying in the bathtub in a very embarrassed manner, struggling with a frightened expression.
"Zheng Jieming!! What happened to you!? Fang Xinping shouted loudly.
Wang Chengnan heard the noise and began to cry loudly.
Fang Xinping was at a loss, so he could only open the door and call for others to come and help.
Jin Yue lived next door, she heard the voice, and was the first to rush out of the house and go to Fang Xinping's room.
When Fang Xinping saw Jin Yue coming, he hurriedly rushed to the house to appease Wang Chengnan.
Jin Yue saw that the pipe of the shower was wrapped around Zheng Jieming, and hurriedly rushed up to help him untie it, Zheng Jieming kicked his legs in the bathtub, and finally came back to his senses after a while.
"Golden ...... Jin Yue? Zheng Jieming looked at Jin Yue.
A few more people rushed into the room. Jin Yue turned around and raised his hand and called everyone back.
"What's wrong with you?" Jin Yue asked.
"I ...... I ......" Zheng Jieming didn't know how to explain what he had just seen, he felt that the scene he saw was so real, it didn't look like a dream at all.
"It's all right. Come and stay in my room for a while. Jin Yue said, helped Zheng Jieming up from the bathtub, and carried him out of the door.
At the door, Hang Ming, Leng Yuhan, Li Xuan and others stood in the corridor, looking at Zheng Jieming uneasily.
"It's fine, it's just not in good spirits. Everyone was too tired for a while, so take a good rest. Jin Yue said, sent Zheng Jieming into his room, and closed the door.
"There was no one else in the house. What happened to you just now? Jin Yue asked.
"I ......" Zheng Jieming just wanted to say that he saw Wang Yueshan and Li Yu, but when he thought about it, he felt that it was inappropriate to talk about Li Yu in front of Jin Yue, so he held back his words. It's okay...... I just looked in the mirror, and suddenly I hallucinated. β
"Hallucinations? What kind of hallucinations? Jin Yue asked.
"I seem to have seen Wang Yueshan......" Zheng Jieming hesitated, but still said truthfully. He really needed to say what he had just seen, or he felt that he might be mentally ill.
"Illusions? So to put it that way...... I also often feel like I see Li Yu ......" Jin Yue sighed and said.
Zheng Jieming raised his head and looked at Jin Yue carefully, on her head, the hair had begun to grow back a little, but because of her delicate facial features, it did not look ugly.
"You haven't walked over yet?" Zheng Jieming asked.
"Yes. Didn't walk past. Jin Yue did not hide her sadness at all.
Zheng Jieming noticed the manuscripts on the desk, which were all poems written by Jin Yue.
"I failed to protect everyone, sorry for you." Zheng Jieming glanced at the top page and said.
Jin Yue shook his head.
"Can't blame you...... No one can blame...... It's a nightmare......"
She paused and continued, "In the last few days, we have been quite calm and calm. But every morning I wake up with fear, I'd rather hear zombies wandering outside, fight with knives and axes and exhaust myself, and I don't want to be in such a quiet environment...... I've been seeing Li Yu every day lately, and he's just sitting in that corner, staring at me blankly......"
Originally, Jin Yue wanted to comfort Zheng Jieming, but in a blink of an eye, it became Jin Yue complaining to Zheng Jieming. Zheng Jieming followed the direction of Jin Yue's finger and looked at the sofa in the corner, and suddenly felt a chill in his back, as if he also saw Li Yu's face.
Zheng Jieming thought about it and moved the sofa to a position so that it was no longer facing the bed.
"I sometimes think that I understand Qin Qin more and more. If I continue like this, I'm afraid I'll go crazy too. Jin Yue said.
"You have to try to let go of the memories and come out of the sadness." Zheng Jieming sat next to Jin Yue and held the back of her hand.
Jin Yue suddenly leaned her head on Zheng Jieming's shoulder, as if crying. Zheng Jieming could only stay quietly, motionless until his shoulders were wet.
Jin Yue raised her head, her eyes were a little red and swollen.
"I'm sorry, I was here to try to comfort you. As a result, I ...... first."
"It's okay, it's okay, Jin Yue...... It's hard for everybody right now, and if I can help everybody, if I can help you, that's great...... If you have anything to say to me, feel free to do so. Zheng Jieming said.
"Hmm."
At this moment, the two of them seemed to suddenly hear a sound of footsteps outside the house.
Zheng Jieming opened the door and went out to check the situation. I saw that Zhou Jitang was in the opposite room, saw himself come out, and waved to him.
"What's wrong?" Zheng Jieming walked towards the opposite side.
"There's a car passing by outside, I don't know what the situation is, you listen carefully." Zhou Jitang said, while reminding Zheng Jieming not to make a sound.
Zheng Jieming walked to the window and looked down carefully under the cover of the curtain, only to see an ordinary van driving slowly on the road, with a horn installed on the roof of the car, and propaganda was being carried out.
"The election of the first government of the end of the world has been completed, and the government of Zhongzhou is still functioning and will provide protection measures for the general public. Survivors are asked to contact the government as soon as possible. We will take care of everyone's life! β¦β¦β
Zheng Jieming frowned and watched the van drive away.
"Doomsday government? This is the district government's * government, Yu Zekai's gang made it up, right? Zheng Jieming said.
Xue Yongti was in the closed room, he didn't hear a sound, Hua Bong called him to the window, and soon, a van passed by and turned west.
"Looks like they're pulling people." Xue Yongti said, "This group of people are all older politicians and businessmen, and if they want to survive, they must need a group of young and strong people to support them." β
A few hours later, the first van drove back again, this time followed by another car, which appeared to be sitting a family of three, apparently survivors from the neighborhood, who, after hearing the announcement, decided to join the "provisional government".
"Is there a need for us to go over?" Chang Bing asked.
"Don't be in a hurry, just wait and see. If what Mr. Xue Yongti said is true, we should really weigh it. Maybe the real Zhongzhou government still exists, not to mention, we can be alone now, and there is no need to join them. Zheng Jieming said.
Xue Yongti and Hua Feng were next door, Xue Yongti was extremely worried, he was afraid that Zheng Jieming and his group would one day give themselves away for their own interests, since he had already offended Yu Zekai and Song Kuiyi and his group, if it fell into their hands again, it would definitely be more auspicious.
For Xue Yongti, no matter what, it is unacceptable and full of risks for Zheng Jieming and his group to join the provisional government.
"What kind of temporary government is this guy? In fact, they are all bandits who kill people without blinking. Xue Yongti began to add oil and vinegar to the publicity.
ββββββββββ
On the other hand, Yu Zekai and others' plan to recruit survivors has also begun to be in full swing.
Their armed forces themselves actually covered the entire western and southern parts of the Northern Metropolis. But for Yu Zekai, he wants more.
He knew that there was a military region in the southwest of Beidu, and his goal was to take over the military regionββββ whether it was through peaceful means or military meansββββ and he wanted to make this newly established provisional government bigger and bigger and build it into a real power organ.
Beidu is not the end of his ambitions, although he does not grasp the situation in the whole state, but he knows that with the banner of politics! He's sure he'll be invincible! Collect the survivors he saw, and finally slaughter the zombies in the whole of Zhongzhou and rebuild Zhongzhou!
It's just that the plan has only just begun, and it has encountered obstaclesββββ who are responsible for going out to recruit survivors, including Rui Zhili and his group who had besieged Qin Yicai and others before.
As one of several regional leaders of the armed forces, Rui Zhili's main task is to carry out the armed tasks assigned by Yu Zekai and others. Their original directive was to prevent more survivors from flocking to the west, and now, they have received the opposite directive, which is to encircle as many survivors as possible and get more survivors to support the provisional government.
"It's ridiculous! Isn't it that we used to kill people and drive people out, and now let's get these people back? Rui Zhili complained, "If we had known in advance that there was such a change, we shouldn't have easily started a war with someone like Qin Yicai at that time. β
"Big brother, I only want to know one thing. Do I need to provide food to new survivors when they join? If bacon is served, is it still made from the flesh of a dead man? I don't want to do it at all. The subordinate driving the vehicle next to him complained.
Rui Zhili slapped him on the head and warned him to shut up and not to say anything more about eating human flesh. "Qin Yicai turned against us because he knew about it before, did you forget!? If anyone says this again, I'll kill whom! Whoever is sunburned is dried!! β
In fact, the food provided by Yu Zekai to these armed men was sufficient, but Rui Zhili secretly withheld all the meat, and used human flesh to distribute it to survivors like Qin Yicai, using them as "mercenaries".
At this time, he was driving an ordinary small pickup truck with two subordinates, driving south of the Central Axis Road, playing a radio recorded by the provisional government. This broadcast was broadcast on batteries, and they still have quite a few of them on hand.
"Hey, look, is there anyone in the building up ahead?" Rui Zhili noticed that on the roof of a small building in front of him, there seemed to be a figure shaking.
"Yes, there must be someone, go over and recruit them!" The driver said, driving the pickup truck over.
The man on the roof apparently saw the pickup, and the man immediately ran downstairs.
"See us?" The driver said.
"Definitely, just wait a minute." Rui Zhili squinted and looked upstairs.
A bullet came out of the second-floor window and went straight to the windshield.
