Chapter 233: You Want to Eat?
Off Interstate 80, Roxbury, New Jersey, USA.
Three cars were parked at the gate of the auto parts factory, several people got out of the car, Tang Ji walked in the front, towards the closed gate of the factory, the air was filled with a special aroma, which made people's appetite move, yes, it was the smell of meat.
"There could be someone, be careful!" Tang Ji turned around and reminded him, walked to the front of the factory, tried to push the door, didn't push it, raised his hand and slammed it a few times, and retreated a little farther, and several people looked at the surrounding walls vigilantly.
After a while, a man suddenly jumped up from the inside of the wall, glanced out, and immediately went down again.
In just a minute or two, there was a sound of chains inside the gate, and then they were all over the place, and a white man who looked to be thirty-four or five years old opened the door with a shotgun and walked out, not the man who had just crossed the wall, and it was obviously not a person here.
"Hey, hello, would you like to come in?" The white man's face was very haggard, his eyes were black, and he didn't look very good, he looked around, his eyes swept over Tang Ji and the others who were fully armed under the car, and then looked at the three cars, smiled, and said very kindly.
In the last days, the most worrying thing is zombies, of course Tang Ji and the others are not zombies, everyone can see that they are passers-by, it is already dusk, and the white man seems to be able to guess what Tang Ji and these people are going to do.
"We ......" Tang Ji pointed to the people around him, looked at the white man and smiled, and then pointed to the factory, "We plan to spend the night here?" Is it convenient? "Tang Ji didn't know the situation inside, if he occupied this place, he didn't want others to disturb him, empathy, so he was very polite, and this was not the only place he could hide.
"Nothing inconvenient, come in!" The white man shook his head and smiled, turned around and whispered something, the door of the factory was slowly opened, and Tang Ji saw two more figures, two men, both about twenty-four or five years old, a white man and a black man, all carrying guns, and they opened the door.
"Thank you!" Tang Ji thanked him, turned around and waved his hand, he took a few people who had already gotten off the car and walked towards the factory on foot, and the three cars also started and slowly drove in behind.
"Don Ji!"
"Eminem!"
As he walked past the white man, Don Guy shook his hand, introduced himself, and learned his name.
After entering the factory, Tang Ji looked around with a gun, this factory is not big, only two large factories, a two-storey office building, and a canteen building, Tang Ji also noticed that the windows of the canteen building are emitting this faint white gas, it seems that the fragrance comes from the depths of the canteen, and the fragrance is also coming from there.
As soon as Christine entered the factory, she began to sniff hard, and the smell was so fragrant.
"We just shot a deer and it's already in the pot, it's a gift from God, we haven't eaten for two days, it looks like God his old man is not starving to death like us." The white man named Eminem noticed the looks of several people, sniffed as well, told the source of the taste, and played a joke about God.
"That's good!" Tang Ji followed his words and smiled at him and nodded.
"Of course!" Eminem pouted and said with a smile.
The three cars slowly pulled up to the open space in the middle of the factory, and the door had been closed by the two young men with Eminem, and locked with chains.
"Where are you going?" Eminem walked over to Don Guy's side, put his shotgun behind him, and asked in a casual tone.
“…… ...... to the west" Tang Ji looked at it and said casually, turned his head to look at Eminem and said: "It's getting dark, live here today, and you can get to your destination tomorrow morning, excuse me!" ”
Eminem waved his hand to Tang Ji, signaling that Tang Ji didn't need to say that, thought about it, looked at Tang Ji and said with a smile: "This is not ours either, there are few zombies nearby, but there is not much food to be found, this deer is finished, we should also consider changing places, otherwise, we should eat grass, haha......" Eminem is not young, but he looks like he likes to joke, and he laughed again as he spoke.
"Huh? There are a lot of you, huh? A few people. Smiling, Eminem noticed that there were many people in the car, looked at Tang Ji and asked.
"Fourteen, what about you?" Tang Ji said, he could feel that there were definitely more than three people here.
"Seven people." Eminem looked in the direction of the cafeteria, turned his head to look at Tang Ji and smiled.
"Seven?" Tang Ji immediately asked rhetorically, his face different.
"yes, what's wrong?" Eminem's face changed slightly, he didn't know why Tang Ji asked that.
"You guys here...... Is there a guy named Damon? Tang Ji asked hesitantly as he thought about it.
"You know Damon?" Eminem immediately smiled again on his face and asked in surprise.
"Uh-huh! Can you call him out? Tang Ji nodded and said.
"Wait a minute......" Eminem said to Tang Ji, and immediately turned his head and shouted in the direction of the cafeteria: "Damon, come out, an acquaintance is coming, Damon ......" shouted a few times, and finally an answering voice came from the cafeteria: "Come, stop screaming!" ”
While Damon was coming out of it, Don Ji looked left and right again, the others were doing the night's arrangement, a few people were still in the car, and Robbie had already walked into the distance with a gun, checking the situation here.
A short time later, a white man of about thirty years of age came out of the cafeteria, slightly fat, wearing a dirty leather jacket and jeans with some blood spots on them, carrying a semi-automatic rifle on his shoulder, holding a towel in his hands, and walking out of it while wiping his hands.
Seeing Damon walking out, Eminem immediately greeted him, and whispered something to Damon's side, Damon frowned when he listened to Eminem's words when he was still more than ten meters away from Tang Ji, looked at Eminem's side face, whispered something, looked at Tang Ji again, hesitated for a moment and asked loudly, "We know each other?" As he spoke, he and Eminem walked over to Don Quixy's side.
"I don't know ......" Tang Ji shook his head and said, seeing that the other party looked like he was about to turn his face, he immediately said: "But I have seen your brother!" ”
"My brother? Did you meet him? Damon said right away, knowing of course that his brother had driven out.
"Hmm...... He's dead! Don Ji told Damon directly.
"What?" Damon screamed violently, looking at his expression was already stunned, looked at Tang Ji, his neck twisted to the left a little stiffly, and looked at Eminem, his eyes were in disbelief.
"He was on drugs, he was driving on the highway, the car was going fast, the car overturned off the road, rolled into a ditch, and when we found him, he was no longer dead, and he died after saying his last words...... He says he loves you and I'm sorry! Tang Ji's tone was filled with grief and comfort, and it was definitely uncomfortable to learn of the death of his loved one, and he understood.
||“ Oh...... Oh, God...... Oh......" Damon was still a little incredulous, his mouth let out a painful wail, and he squatted on the ground with his head in his hands: "God, how can this be, it's okay when you leave in the afternoon, God ......"
Damon cried, crouching on the ground holding his head, his eyes seemed to lose focus, looking at the sky diagonally above, muttering "why is this happening", not knowing what he was looking at.
In the open space of the factory, for a while, everyone looked at Damon, and the two young people who had just opened and closed the door with Eminem walked to Eminem's side and gathered beside Eminem, Eminem squatted down, put his hand on Damon's shoulder, and comforted him in a low voice: "Mourning!" ”
Eminem suddenly arched his shoulders, raised his hand and knocked Damon's hand away, turned around sharply and grabbed Damon's collar, grabbed it and stood up, and roared at Eminem: "It's all your fault, why didn't you listen to me earlier, why?" Damon was so excited that after shouting, he punched Eminem in the face again, and then walked towards the cafeteria without looking back.
Eminem was knocked to the ground by a punch, and was helped up by the two young men behind him, Eminem wiped the corners of his mouth with his thumb, and looked down again, there was blood on it, and the corners of his mouth were broken, he muttered a dirty word in his mouth, turned his head to look at Damon, who was about to enter the cafeteria, and shouted: "Man, I'm sorry!" ”
Damon ignored Eminem and went straight into the cafeteria.
"Poof...... Damn it! Eminem spat bloodshot saliva on the ground, cursed, and turned his head to look at the two young men behind him.
The two young men, one black and one white, nodded to Eminem and walked in the direction of the cafeteria with their guns on their backs.
Tang Ji has been standing by the side, watching the evolution of things, and he can feel that there is a story in it.
"Damon...... I had some drugs, I didn't hide them well, and they were taken by his brother, and he blamed me......" Eminem covered the corners of his mouth and glanced at Tang Ji with a not very good-looking face, and explained casually.
Boom! Boom! Bang! Syllable!
There was a sudden noise in the cafeteria, as if the table had been knocked over, and the sound of iron objects falling on the ground, because the curtains on the cafeteria windows were drawn, so people standing outside could not see what was happening.
"Damn it, what are you doing? Your brother didn't force him to take drugs, can you not fucking go crazy......" Eminem looked joking, but he was also a tempered master, scolded angrily in the direction of the cafeteria, and hurried towards the cafeteria.
It seems that Damon should be going crazy because of his brother's death, and he should be throwing things.
………………
At dusk, the sky gradually darkened, and since Eminem entered the cafeteria, no one came out again, and the two sides never contacted each other again.
All three cars were parked in the open space next to the factory, and the two off-road vehicles had no light, only the school bus windows emitted a dim yellow light, and all the windows were blocked by curtains, and everyone gathered in the car.
It was already five o'clock in the afternoon, the sky was very dark, and the people gathered in the school bus were having dinner, and they planned to sleep in a few cars tonight, and would not go to any factory to live.
"It's so fragrant, it's been a long time since I've eaten fresh boiled meat." Inside the school bus, Christine sat by the window on the left side of the middle, opened the window a gap, smelled the fragrance outside, and whispered a dry biscuit in her mouth.
"Princess, it's good to have something to eat, don't complain!" Jason, who was lying in a chair opposite, had a pillow under his head, looking at Christine and joking.
"Eat yours, so many words!" Christine turned her head to Jason in an unhappy tone, and broke a small cookie and smashed it at Jason.
"Someone's coming!" Aivan, who was sitting at the end, looked at the computer on his lap and said suddenly.
Tang Ji, who was sitting next to the car door, lifted the curtain on the bus door and looked out, only to see Eminem coming out of the cafeteria and walking in the direction of the school bus, still carrying something in his hand, a little dim, and he couldn't see clearly.
"I'll take a look!" Tang Ji glanced at the people in the car, and then stood up.
Monica, who was sitting in the driver's seat, opened the door, and Donji got out of the car and greeted Eminem.
When he got closer, Tang Ji saw clearly that Eminem was carrying a wire in his hand, and on that wire hung a large piece of meat, without skin, and the red one was still bloodshot, no fat, all lean meat.
"Hey, man......" Eminem waved his hand at Tang Ji and said hello, walked over to Tang Ji and picked up the meat, and said, "Fresh venison, the blood is clean, how about you exchange some food?" ”
Tang Ji tilted his head and looked at the piece of meat, a large piece, estimated to be more than ten catties, nodded, and said to Eminem: "Wait a minute!" Then he turned in the direction of the school bus and shouted, "Robbie, get some food." ”
Robbie immediately appeared at the door of the car and looked out, and Don Guy gestured to him in exchange.
Robbie nodded and turned back into the carriage.
"There is a dead person, this was originally Damon's brother's share, we discussed it just now, I see that you should bring a lot of food, exchange some with you, so that we can eat longer, otherwise there is no electricity now, so that the meat can only stink for a few days!" While Robbie was taking advantage of the food, Eminem said to Don Guy in a casual tone.
"Yes......" Tang Ji looked in the direction of the car door, replied casually, and said: "A deer for six people will also eat for many days, and it will really be a waste if it stinks, so you can consider salting it." Don Ji turned his head and looked at Eminem after speaking.
"Yes, we want to do that, too, but not enough salt." Eminem pursed the corners of his mouth and said.
Don Ji and Eminem chatted a few words, and Robbie in the car packed up some food, packed it in a plastic bag, got out of the car, and handed the food to Don Ji, who in turn handed the food to Eminem, and Eminem gave the venison to Don Quix.
Opening the plastic bag and looking inside, Eminem nodded with satisfaction, there was enough food, it was an equivalent exchange, said hello to Don Ji, and turned around and walked towards the cafeteria, Robbie and Tang Ji also returned to the car.
The school buses closed, and Don Guy sat in the seat at the door of the bus with the meat.
"Wow, what a big piece of meat, can we eat meat today?" Christine's excited voice came from behind.
"You want to eat?" Don Guy took the meat and shook it at Christine, raising his eyebrows with a strange expression.
"Of course, will you eat today?" Christine nodded at Don Ji like a woodpecker.
Tang Ji glanced at Christine, shook his head slowly, and then turned back to look at the meat in his hand, his face sank.
"What's wrong?" Christine sensed that Tang Ji was strange and asked a little dazedly.
Tang Ji looked at the meat in his hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a slow voice: "This is human flesh!" (To be continued.) )
