Chapter 180: Squad
Lu Li couldn't resist Qian Hong, so he had to agree to stay for the time being, and return to City A together when he found his parents. After some deliberation, the preliminary plan was quickly completed.
Considering that Qian Hong and the others were all ordinary humans who had not been strengthened, and there was no need to approach cities and towns where a large number of zombies gathered, Lu Li divided everyone except the old, weak, sick and disabled into three teams. Each team consists of ten to fifteen people.
He, Yang Yuting, and Luo Yufeng each led a team to search nearby. Di Yu became the liaison of the three teams, responsible for transmitting relevant information.
After a day's rest, the three teams immediately began their search. Lu Li took Qian Hong and the other fourteen team members all the way north. Under the information provided by Qian Hong, his purpose is the most likely direction for Qiu Chengyu and others, and it is also the most dangerous direction. That's the area around Jiuba Ridge.
By noon, Lu Li and his party had already arrived at the foot of Jiuba Ridge. He stopped, looked around, and told everyone to hurry up and rest.
At this time, Qian Hong took advantage of everyone's search for a place to sit down and rest, and came to Lu Li. He pointed to the northwest and said, "There's a village twenty kilometers away over there. The village is very close to the town, just a few kilometers away. It's also relatively easy to find supplies there. Clues may be found in that village. ”
"Good ......"
Lu Li nodded briskly. Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, his heart became vigilant. In the flash of his mind, he released his mental power with all his strength for the first time. In a few moments, he keenly caught an unfamiliar brain wave in the air, only more than 300 meters away.
"Cultists?"
His mind flashed through the images of the cultists. As soon as I thought of this, a few hundred meters suddenly rang out with a crisp gunshot. As soon as the gunfire started, he didn't react, and was immediately carried upside down by the momentum of the bullet.
"The third."
Qian Hong exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly wanted to rush over. Unexpectedly, another gunshot rang out, so frightened that he quickly hugged his head and lay on the ground, and then crawled and fled behind a rock. He hid behind the rocks, his face was cloudy, and he wanted to rush to Lu Li's side several times, but he was afraid that the gunman would snipe him.
At this time, the others were already frightened and hid behind the rocks. They were frightened and frightened, and looked around in fear, for fear that a group of cultists would jump out and catch themselves and roast them and eat them.
The gunfire did not continue to fire. About half an hour later, Qian Hong boldly walked out from behind the rocks. After a long time, there was still no gunshot, so he relieved himself and hurried to Lu Li's side. As soon as he was halfway through, Lu Li sat up with his head covered suddenly. Frightened by this, he gave up his legs and sat on the ground.
", I got a headshot again."
Lu Li touched the bullet hole that had just healed, and his heart was depressed. The shot just now really made him unbearable, and it pierced his skull. If it weren't for the fact that he had one more strengthening than an ordinary enhanced human, and his bones had reached a fairly hard level, I am afraid that that one shot would have directly blown his head to shreds. At that time, I wanted to heal myself...... He didn't know if he would be able to resurrect himself after his head was blown off.
At this time, Qian Hong saw Lu Li, who had been lying on the ground for more than half an hour, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, sat up, his eyes became dull, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. For a long time, it wasn't until Lu Li stood up that he got up in surprise and stepped forward to hug Lu Li hard.
"I thought you were dead. Damn, it almost scared me to death. ”
Lu Li heard it in his ears, and his heart was inexplicably moved. He wiped it casually, wiped the blood stains on his forehead, deliberately concealed the facts, and said with a smile: "I'm lucky." The gunman's marksmanship was a little worse, and he only scratched a little skin. I was just worried that he would watch for a while, so I didn't dare to get up right away. ”
"Targeted at you?"
Qian Hong let go of his hand, his face surprised. Lu Li nodded and smiled indifferently: "It must be aimed at me." That gunslinger is the one sent by that cult to kill me. I guess they were going to avoid a head-on confrontation and kill me directly. Do you think they're going to target you? ”
"Hey, don't be too scared."
Qian Hong looked disdainful, and almost poked his finger on Lu Li's forehead. Lu Li smiled and greeted everyone nonchalantly: "While they think they have eliminated the target, let's leave here quickly." ”
With that, he took Qian Hong and took the lead towards the village in the northwest. After walking a few meters, he suddenly lowered his voice and asked with a solemn expression: "Except for the urban area, where were there troops stationed nearby?" ”
Qian Hong's face was overjoyed, and he asked in surprise: "Do you want to ask the army for help?" ”
Lu Li shook his head and smiled self-deprecatingly: "No, I just want to get you some guns for self-defense." Of course, if you leave me, you will be safe for the time being. After all, they're targeting me. ”
"What do you mean?"
Qian Hong was unhappy: "Look down on me, don't you?" If I die, leave my brother and run away, I will not be a man. ”
Seeing that he was angry, Lu Li hurriedly raised his hand and surrendered: "Okay, okay, it's me who is wrong." In that case, tell me where I once had troops. I'll have to see if I can get some guns, or I'll be a disadvantage against them." ”
"It's like ......"
Qian Hong frowned and pondered for a while, then pointed to the northwest uncertainly and said, "It seems that there was once a unit stationed in the town over there that escaped from the city. I heard gunshots coming from over there. When I took someone over to find out, it was already full of zombies. I'm afraid that force has been wiped out. ”
At this point, he paused, and continued, "I want to get those guns back from town...... It's not easy. ”
"It's okay, anyway, drop by."
Lu Li quickened his pace and walked towards that side, while chuckling: "I'll talk about it when I get there." If it weren't for the Evolved Zombies, I would have been able to take you into town and pick up those guns by myself. ”
After receiving Lu Li's confident answer, Qian Hong and others increased their confidence. I have seen the strength of Di Yu and Yang Yuting before, and they can make these two strongmen obedient, and eighty percent of them are not bragging.
As a result, the speed of the team's progress immediately increased. At about five o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Li and his party saw the village Qian Hong said from a distance.
The village is not far from the road. Lu Li and the others walked through the barren farmland and went up to the road. After a long afternoon's journey, everyone was exhausted. But seeing that the target was in front of them, the pace under their feet became faster and faster.
After about half an hour, the group finally arrived at the entrance of the village. The concrete road into the village was strewn with dark brown blood, and the long-dried paddy fields on both sides were littered with headless, highly decomposed corpses.
Seeing these corpses, Lu Li's confidence increased greatly. It was clear that these corpses had been zombies, but they had their heads smashed. Whoever killed these zombies, the probability that King Qiu Yan and the others had been here was quite high.
At this time, Lu Li stopped and raised his hand to prevent Qian Hong and the others from entering the village. He looked at the dead village and whispered, "Wait for me here." I'll go in first and see what's going on inside. If there are no zombies, I'll let you in. ”
When Qian Hong heard this, he immediately became anxious. didn't want to wait for her to speak, Lu Li, as if he was an unpredictable prophet, took back what he was going to say: "Wait for me here, if there are really zombies inside, it will be too dangerous for you." ”
Hearing Lu Li say this, Qian Hong fell silent. He raised his head, looked at Lu Li's eyes seriously, and admonished: "Be careful, I have no relatives anymore, and you are the only old classmate left." ”
"Hey, I'm not dying that easily."
Lu Li scolded with a smile, then restrained his smile and walked into the village quickly. As soon as he entered the village, he did not reserve it, and released his mental power with all his might.
In an instant, a village in Nuoda was shrouded in invisible telekinesis. In such a state, he keenly captured every imperceptible electromagnetic wave in the air.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes...... Five minutes later, he breathed a sigh of relief. There are a lot of faint electromagnetic waves in the air, but fortunately, there are no traces of brain waves that are very special like zombies. For the sake of safety, he walked around the village uneasily. After making sure that there were neither survivors nor zombies in the village, he returned to Qian Hong and the others.
"There are no zombies in the village, let's all come in."
Lu Li led everyone into the village, and cautiously advised: "Wait for half an hour to rest first, and then build a line of defense while it is not dark." This is where we are stationed these days. ”
No one objected. Nowadays, everyone knows that in order to sleep soundly in such a place, a strong line of defense is essential. After all, no one wants to be bitten to death by those zombies in their sleep.
Soon, the sun went down, and the afterglow of the setting sun was still holding on, otherwise the night would swallow the earth. At this time, Lu Li had already led people to build a line of defense relying on two buildings that were competing with each other.
They used various tools in the villagers' homes to tear down the iron doors of each house and fix them firmly with wires. These connected iron gates then encircled the two small three-story buildings. The iron fence was erected, and Lu Li led people to use the woven bags they found to fill them with soil, and reinforced them layer by layer under the iron fence.
The defense line was built, and Lu Li tried it with all his might. The iron fence was so strong that even if he was an enhanced human, he could barely shake most of the iron fence that was buried deep underground.
At this time, Qian Hong and the others were so tired that they couldn't stand steadily. Seeing that Lu Li had no choice but to use the iron fence, they immediately helped each other into the building and found a place to rest.
As night fell, snoring was already ringing in both buildings. Lu Li stood on the top of the building, looking at the dark village. He couldn't help but smile as he listened to the snoring.
These snoring sounds reminded him of Qin Hu and the others. He couldn't help but laugh secretly when he thought back to the time when he was in the hospital stronghold, even if they were in one room and could still hear their snoring every night.
"I don't know what they're doing now, so I have to do everything I can to find King Qiu Yan and bring my parents back."
At this moment, a strong sense of crisis arose from the bottom of my heart. His complexion changed, and without thinking, he released his mental power with all his might, all over the village. After a while, his face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice.
"The Ghost Lingers......"
