Chapter 13: Not the Past
On the silent highway, a cash truck was moving fast. Lin Jiang sat in the co-pilot, looking at the river under the bridge outside the window, his eyes full of helplessness. Seeing this, Li Wenwen, who was driving a car, couldn't help asking: "Are we going directly or along the river?" ”
When Lin Jiang heard this, he retracted his eyes and glanced ahead, and said slowly: "Let's go to the riverside, the riverside is quiet, even if there are zombies, there will not be many zombies." If you go straight, you may encounter zombies, after all, there is an undergraduate college not far ahead. There are a lot more people in it than in our colleges. ”
Nodding, Li Wenwen turned the steering wheel to the left and walked along the river towards the city. Although she was a little nervous at first, after driving the two-kilometer road, she gradually relaxed her mood to drive. Even the feeling of wanting to vomit had disappeared, and the whole car drove smoothly on the road under her control.
Several people who were playing with the shotgun bullets in their hands, after carefully reading the bullets, handed the three bullets to Lin Jiang. Ma Xiaofeng said curiously: "Lin Jiang, you have checked all the bullets." What should I do if I want to enter the city? If there are zombies in the city, it will definitely be more troublesome than the school. ”
After Lin Jiang received the bullet, he put it in his small pocket and said with a stern expression: "Since it has come out, we must be more careful." Now there are seven of us, especially five boys, and we have to have enough food. The food we brought out from Chang'e-3 was dry food, and there was no way to sustain the seven of us for too long. Walk down the river. Let's go to the department store first, which is also a downtown location, and we will solve the problem of eating first. ”
When Qu Xin heard this, he immediately came up and said: "There should be a lot of people in that kind of place, if it becomes a zombie, it should be very dangerous." We should look for food somewhere else, and going to a department store is too risky. ”
"Qu Xin is right, Lin Jiang might as well let us see if there is any food along the way. If you go to a department store, it's too dangerous, and there are usually a lot of people in it, if you become zombies. Even if we have a gun in our hands, we can't guarantee absolute safety. Song Rui nodded and hurriedly said, seemingly a little resistant to Lin Jiang's decision.
Lin Jiang gently touched his forehead and looked at the deserted riverside road in front of him. Shaking his head, he said: "The department store is the city center, and there may be unexpected gains when you go there, if there are a lot of zombies there, I won't take the risk." As I said, I just want to do my best to ensure the safety of our lives, and the food on the street is certainly okay. But the supermarket in the department store, there will be everything there that will allow us to find everything in a short time. What's more, I need tools like tents in the department store, which are hard to find outside. ”
Seeing this, Ma Xiaofeng said: "What Lin Jiang said is reasonable, do you remember why we are in the car now?" This is because we listened to his advice, and since he is an expert in this area, we should not doubt anything. I think Wu Silan and Gou Jie should not refuse Lin Jiang's request, I'm right. ”
Wu Silan smiled slightly: "That's natural, Lin Jiang and I are roommates, and he saved me." I'm sure I'm going to agree with his decision with both hands, and I'm sure he really wants us to live. ”
"What about you? Gou Jie, what do you mean. You're a girl, so you're scared. Ma Xiaofeng looked at Gou Jie, who was sitting in the corner, and asked. In the interior of the cash truck, it was empty, and there were no seats, Gou Jie, who was sitting in the corner, raised her head slightly, looked at the four men and said softly: "I believe in Lin Jiang, I am willing to go to the department store." ”
Song Rui had to pat his forehead when he heard this, and said helplessly: "Okay, okay." Since you are all willing to go, then I have no choice, so I will go too. ”
Seeing that everyone was willing to follow Lin Jiang, Qu Xin and Song Rui had no choice but to obey Lin Jiang's arrangement. Although they agreed to Lin Jiang's plan, they were still a little scared in their hearts, and Qu Xin couldn't help but step forward and said, "The supermarket in the department store is on the third floor, how are you going to cross the floor with zombies." ”
Lin Jiang smiled and said: "I didn't say that I was going to the third floor of the department store, what are you worried about, when the time comes, I will make a detailed battle plan after seeing the actual situation." ”
"Huh? If you don't go to the third floor, you go there. Do you want to get clothes to eat? Qu Xin asked a little confused.
Song Rui and Ma Xiaofeng shook their heads helplessly, directly gave Qu Xin the back of their heads, and sighed: "Why are you so stupid, since Lin Jiang said so, you still don't understand." ”
Touching the place where he was beaten, Qu Xin couldn't help but say a little unhappily: "You guys will bully me, sue me quickly." What did Lin Jiang mean by that? Isn't the supermarket in the department store on the third floor, why doesn't he go to the third floor? ”
Ma Xiaofeng stretched out his hand and rubbed Qu Xin's hair and said, "Lin Jiang is talking about Macy's Department Store, the building on the street opposite the department store, it's true, it should be understood now." ”
After listening to Ma Xiaofeng's explanation, Qu Xin directly pushed away Ma Xiaofeng's palm, and said with some anger in his eyes: "Don't treat me as a little brother, although I am only a freshman next semester." But I'm also a college student, so don't be like I don't know anything. Isn't it clothing sold in Macy's? And also about the sports aspect. What's the supermarket there, you're kidding me again. ”
Wu Silan looked at Qu Xin as if he was an idiot, as if he didn't believe what he said. Even Ma Xiaofeng was already speechless and sat on the iron sheet, although there were no seats here, they could still sit on the iron sheet of the carriage. Song Rui saw that Ma Xiaofeng was already disdainful of explaining, so he scolded and said, "FUCK, are you really stupid or fake stupid?" Since it's Macy's, how can there be no supermarket. That supermarket is on the minus ground floor, not upstairs. ”
Qu Xin snorted coldly: "Say it earlier, I don't know there." Always treat me like a little brother, I've graduated from high school! If this disaster hadn't happened, I would have been a college student. ”
In the face of Qu Xin's complaints, several people ignored him and sat on the iron sheet to enjoy rare comfort. After Qu Xin understood the truth of the matter, he hurriedly stretched out his head and said to Lin Jiang in the cab: "Brother Lin Jiang, the Macy's department store you mentioned is on the first floor. How are you going to get in? There must be zombies at the door. ”
When the time comes, I'll tell you again, let's rest for a few minutes, there will be some time there. Lin Jiang didn't say much, lying quietly on the seat, as if thinking about something. Seeing that everyone didn't want to say anything, Qu Xin could only retract his head and sit on it. Feel the tremor coming from the engine of the car and the sound of the engine of the car.
Li Wenwen held the steering wheel in her hand, looking at the deserted highway in front of her, and couldn't help but feel a little busy and unfamiliar. In the past, although this road was sparsely populated, there were vehicles passing by, but until now, she has not seen a single car.
Coming to a T-junction, Li Wenwen hit the steering wheel to the right, and said to Lin Jiang beside her: "Macy's is not far ahead, you should have something to say to us, right?" ”
Hearing this, Lin Jiang nodded, looking at the road that left the river and officially entered the city, where he could already see the sparse zombies. Because of the sound of the car engine, these zombies slowly followed the direction of the car, Lin Jiang knocked on the iron plate behind him and said slowly: "Get up and work, you have entered the city." We're going to get rid of the zombies, or we'll be behind our butts when we get out of the supermarket. ”
Several people understood what Lin Jiang meant, if they didn't attract zombies, they would attract more and more zombies. At that time, their situation will be very dangerous, Ma Xiaofeng looked outside through the shooting hole, turned his head and asked, "What are you going to let us do?" ”
Lin Jiang said slowly: "Open the back door, you use the contents of your backpack to smash the vehicle parked on the side of the street, so that the alarm of the vehicle sounds." This will lure away the zombies, and we will be much safer when we get to Macy's. ”
Ma Xiaofeng, Song Rui and the others nodded and said, "No problem, it's ...... us."
As soon as the words fell, a turn made several people who did not sit firmly crash into the iron sheet, and Song Rui rubbed his head on the iron sheet. said to Li Wenwen in front of her: "Sister, you are driving well, why did you suddenly make a turn, my head hurts so much." ”
"Look outside, oh my God, it's like this inside the city." Li Wenwen did not apologize, but said in a hurry.
At this moment, Lin Jiang was already looking outside through the windshield in front of him, and Song Rui and the others also saw the situation outside through the shooting holes on both sides. The city was in shambles, with many vehicles crashing into each other and showing burn marks. There are all kinds of garbage everywhere on the street, as if they are in a deserted garbage dump, and several people are staring at it blankly. It used to be a bustling street, but now it's a garbage dump.
Lin Jiang retracted his eyes and hurriedly said to Li Wenwen: "Pay attention to the speed of driving, don't hit the car." Then he hurriedly turned his head to a few people behind him and said, "There is no time, hurry up and throw things, the current road situation is not good for us, we must delay the zombies to follow." ”
When Ma Xiaofeng heard this, he immediately stood up and ran to the back to open the lock on the back door. With a slight push, they saw that the situation outside the car was clearly revealed in front of them, and dozens or even hundreds of zombies were following behind their car. When Qu Xin saw this scene, he was sweating and hurriedly opened the backpack brought by Lin Jiang and the others. After rummaging inside for things that could be thrown, and after finding a few thermos cups, he immediately stood up, attached to the iron sheet and slowly came to the back door, handed a few to Ma Xiaofeng, and smashed them directly towards the vehicle outside.
Song Rui and Wu Silan were not idle, they opened their backpacks and began to search for things that could smash the car. And Gou Jie, who was sitting on the side, hurriedly handed the things they took out to Ma Xiaofeng and Qu Xin in front. Several people have a clear division of labor, and they are all fighting to be able to lure away the zombies.
"Didi Di Di ......"
The sound of the vehicle's alarm sounded on the street, and many zombies who were originally following behind the cash truck slowly turned around because of the sound of the alarm. But despite this, every other distance, Ma Xiaofeng and Qu Xin would smash at the surrounding vehicles together, because there were too many zombies around.
With the sound of the vehicle's alarm, Lin Jiang's cash truck slowly drove forward, where there was a building with the word "Messi" written on it.
