Chapter 238: A Chance to Break Out
After Zhou Jitang and the others drove the car towards the wall, they saw Zheng Jieming and Wei Zilong standing on the wall fighting, Wei Zilong heard the sound of the car, turned his head back and shouted.
"The survivors inside have responded! There's a fire lit inside, and you can get people out! ”
Liang Shui is a little suspicious now, based on the performance of the three survivors before, I just hope that the last pickup truck will not be secretly taken away!
Not only are there zombies inside the wall, but outside the wall, behind the pickup, the zombies have also chased over, Zhou Jitang estimated that Zheng Jieming and the others would need a certain amount of time to meet with the survivors in the courtyard, so he simply reversed the car backwards, trying to take the zombies outside the courtyard around the city for half a circle - this is the method he used before, and it is suitable to deal with these zombies with low IQ.
Chang Bing slowly regained her senses, she was hit by the one just now, and her head was still a little starry.
"Sorry...... Did I just make a mess? Chang Bing said.
"Nope! You just hit it very well! Helped everyone gain time!! Zhou Jitang heard Chang Bing's voice, looked at her from the rearview mirror, and said loudly, "Are you okay?" ”
Chang Bing shook with the car and touched his head with his hand, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
"Then sit tight and hold on!" Zhou Jitang made a sharp turn and drove south, he wanted to drag the route of the zombie pursuit and then go back to meet everyone.
Further south, across the railroad overpass, is a large expanse of relocated housing that used to be wasteland, factories and bungalows, or more recently built, with a small population density.
Zhou Jitang drove the car over slowly, chasing a large line of zombies behind him, and then he turned left and found a fork in the road, intending to turn the car back again.
"Wait!!" Liang Shui and Hua Bong suddenly started banging on the window in the back trunk.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Jitang looked at the zombie and the car at a certain safe distance, parked the car on the side of the road, opened the window and asked.
"Look southwest!" Cool water pointed in the direction of something unusual.
I saw a black mist-like thing shrouded in black pressure on the mountain in the distance, and I couldn't tell if it was a cloud or something else. The shape of the fog shifted slightly.
"Black clouds, huh?" Zhou Jitang hesitated.
"Have you ever seen a black cloud like this?" Cool water immediately opposed.
"What do I think...... Are those swarms flying around? Chang Bing looked in horror at the black fog that shrouded the mountains in the distance.
Zhou Jitang didn't want to speculate anymore, "It's possible for insects and birds, no matter what it is, now that the number of humans is smaller, it's not surprising that there are more animals and insects!" Weeds are all over the place! ”
Zhou Jitang started the throttle and found another way to run back.
――――――――
On Zheng Jieming's side, the number of zombies from east to west seems to have decreased a little, and Zheng Jieming and Wei Zilong are also a little exhausted from killing on the wall, so they can only go around the main entrance along the wall.
"I didn't expect it just now, let's see if we can go around the gate and close the big iron gate over there!" Zheng Jieming suddenly remembered this trick.
The two of them acted immediately, one of them walking aside, carefully shuttling through the end of the wall. Zheng Jieming hadn't gone far before the road ahead was blocked -- the wall was connected to a residential building, and he couldn't go any further!
But here gave Zheng Jieming a new discovery - there is a small house built privately on the first floor under this wall, and Zheng Jieming can jump directly to the top of the small house from here, avoiding the zombies in the courtyard!
He tried to jump off and walked up from the roof, where the second-floor security bar was just above his head, and he only had to raise his hand to climb up.
And this kind of old house is not equipped with anti-theft fences, the three-story family even has the most old-fashioned iron-framed single-layer glass windows, Zheng Jieming was ruthless, climbed the outer edge of the window sill on the third floor, and after confirming that there was no one inside, he smashed the glass window with the handle of the knife and turned over and entered the house.
The house was a despised and impoverished house, with yellow, brittle wallpaper on the walls, and cobwebs had been formed since there had been no one for several days.
There was a foul smell in the room, Zheng Jieming carefully distinguished, and felt that the smell came from the kitchen, he slowly walked to the kitchen to check, a decomposed corpse fell next to the tattered pool, a group of rats surrounded the corpse, was alarmed by Zheng Jieming, and scattered in all directions with a hula, but they didn't seem to be afraid of people, and immediately gathered back.
Zheng Jieming felt sick and closed the kitchen door, but he immediately opened the kitchen door again.
"The knife in my hand has been blunted, and even the tip of the knife is gone, so it should be replaced."
He thought, picked up the kitchen knife with the unpleasant smell, and threw it back in disappointment.
This knife is not as sharp as the one in my hand, and it has rusted!
He returned to the gate, opened the main entrance and rushed downstairs.
At this time, a fire had already ignited in the courtyard, but the fire did not ignite the nearby trees, it seemed that it would not last long, he was in the third unit, not far from the horizontal distance of Luo Xue and others, Zheng Jieming tentatively walked out, wanting to pass through the courtyard and reach the unit where Luo Xue and the others were.
On the other hand, Wei Zilong has been on the wall, walked around the community, and arrived at the main gate of the community.
This door is a sliding iron door, which is half-open at this time, Wei Zilong saw that there were still zombies coming in the distance, and he lay on the edge of the wall with difficulty, pushing the sliding door forward as much as possible, closing the entrance of the community.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Zheng Jieming rushing out of the corridor.
"The door is closed!! Go downstairs and kill!! Wei Zilong shouted loudly.
Luo Xue and the others were at the window, saw the door being closed, realized that this was the greatest opportunity, immediately prepared their weapons, and rushed out of the building.
"Lao Yan, are you going to go down with you this time!?" Luo Xue's sledgehammer was left in the hallway, and she picked up a knife from the kitchen.
Lao Yan no longer hesitated this time, he saw that there was no better way to rush out.
"Let's go! Kill all the zombies in the courtyard and climb out of the wall! ”
The emaciated Hua Xiangjia was also ready for battle, and the three survivors walked to the door, pushed the door open, rushed to the corridor, and began to break through downstairs.
The uncles and aunts of the unit next to them were also ready, and they saw that Zheng Jieming had rushed to the courtyard, killing the zombies under the cover of the fire.
They were so ruthless that they all rushed downstairs.
"It's all old bones, if you can rush out, you can rush out!" This group of uncles and aunts are using knives in their hands to prove that they are not only capable of tai chi and square dancing in the square.
There were a few young survivors left on the opposite floor, and these few people were also inspired and rushed out of the corridor.
This group of survivors has finally completed the encirclement of the zombies in turn!
In the firelight, Wei Zilong lay on the door, watching everyone's battle, but he couldn't jump off the yard, there were too many zombies at the door, if he jumped down directly, he would definitely die, he could only go back along the wall and find a place with fewer zombies.
Zheng Jieming saw that all the survivors appeared in the courtyard, and immediately guided everyone to retreat towards the unit building he had just come out of. Luo Xue picked up the sledgehammer and rushed to the front line, Lao Yan and Hua Xiangjia followed behind her.
"Wei Zilong! Come over here! Zheng Jieming saw Wei Zilong jumping down from the opposite wall, for fear that he would be stopped by zombies, and rushed forward to support.
Among the four people who came down from Building 7, a man accidentally fell to the ground and was bitten on the arm by the zombies who rushed over, but he still immediately got up, cut down the zombies, and rushed over.
An aunt was also tragically bitten by a zombie and died on the spot. Her wife glanced back at her, and instead of running away with her companion, she ran back to her and fell to her knees.
Zheng Jieming rushed to Wei Zilong's side, and the two rushed towards the corridor together.
Together with Wei Zilong and Zheng Jieming, a total of thirteen people finally rushed to the corridor, rushed to the third floor, passed the living room full of fishy smell, climbed over the window, jumped to the roof of the first floor of private construction, and climbed the wall.
"Zhou Jitang, where is their car? Haven't you come yet? Several people stood above the wall, and Wei Zilong looked around anxiously.
"No matter, walk along the wall first, find a convenient place to go down." Zheng Jieming estimated the height of the wall and felt that it was no problem to jump, but when he looked back at the uncles and aunts, he was worried that someone would bend his feet.
At this moment, Zhou Jitang arrived in time with a pickup truck!
"Here!!" A crowd shouted at the pickup.
Zhou Jitang saw the people on the wall, and immediately turned the car and stopped under the wall.
"Is it enough to sit in such a car?" Lao Yan said.
"Why can't you sit down, when you're a piglet, it's all crowded in the back box!" Zheng Jieming said and jumped into the car first.
The others jumped off one after another, the front of the car was higher, and the uncles and aunts all jumped to the roof of the car first, and then stepped out of the trunk. Hua Feng stretched out his hands beside him and led everyone.
"Good! Walk! Zheng Jieming saw that everyone had already crowded into the car, and shouted loudly, "Don't drive too fast, so as not to throw people out!" ”
Just when everyone thought they were safe, there was a riot in the trunk again.
The man who was bitten on the arm by the zombie just now had blood dripping down his arm and on the ground.
"Xiao Xiao!! How did you get bitten?! One of his companions asked in surprise.
Almost instantly, everyone shrank to the side, all huddled into the corner of the trunk.
Xiao Xiao hadn't fallen yet, his injured left arm was hanging down, and his right hand was blocking the wound, obviously not wanting to be seen by others.
Everyone looked at him with rejection and fear, and he looked at everyone in horror.
"What's wrong? I was bitten, so you're going to kick me out of the car, right? Xiao Xiao's emotions suddenly lost control, "Are you going to throw me out of the car!?" ”
