Chapter 046: Selfishness
In the early morning of November 9, the third day of the disaster, the 38th Group Army stationed in Yanjing, under the command of the new commander, finally divided its troops into 5 routes and began to march towards Yanjing City. At the same time, military police across the country also received instructions from the latest military commission to start the first formed military force counteroffensive against the zombies. All of a sudden, the major cities of the country were filled with endless war and gunsmoke, and the war between the living and the dead, the zombies, began.
Yue Rong, who had escaped from Yanjing and traveled nearly 300 kilometers, had just come to the vicinity of Shishi, and couldn't help but be a little stunned when he heard the gunfire and artillery roaring from the city in the distance. In the last days he had experienced, he came to the Stone Market on a business trip, and he had not yet entered the Stone Market when the disaster occurred. He clearly remembered that the troops had only entered the stone market on the fifth day after the disaster broke out, and now it was two days ahead of schedule! It also happened before he entered the stone market, and the difference is that the history he knew had changed, and he didn't know how many unknown changes there were in Yue Rong's previous memories.
Yue Rong didn't hear the sound of guns as before, so he eagerly hurried in the direction of the source of the sound, for fear that they would flee and disappear. At that time, troops and the sound of guns were everything he could rely on the most! Like all grass people, he believed that if he found his country's army, he would be able to find refuge. However, the reality is cruel, everyone underestimated this catastrophe, and when people despaired, this catastrophe was given a different name, and people called it the end times. The last days mean that there is no one to rely on, not even the country's army.
Yue Rong, who had been running for days without sleep, was already on the verge of extreme physical exertion, and he was running and fighting almost all the time along the way. The densely populated Yanjing and the surrounding areas made Yue Rong come all the way, and there was hardly a living person in sight, and his eyes were full of countless zombies. He knew that the living were all hiding, and the number would not be small, but the outdoors of the city was already a world of zombies, and no one could compete with the endless zombies outdoors and survive. Those who did not escape, but took refuge in all directions, seemed to have a predestined fate - one in ten.
Yue Rong cautiously found a single-family house, carefully sneaked in, killed the original owner who had become a zombie, locked the doors and windows, closed the curtains, and patrolled the room again, before he was a little relieved, and lay down on the bed to take a nap, he was too tired.
Yue Rong, who was asleep, didn't know why he came again, before the cliff in the consciousness space, the cliff was unfathomable. On the other side, the land as far as the eye can see seems to be clearer than before. He instinctively longed to cross the abyss and reach the distant land, but he was afraid that he would fall into the abyss and never return. At this time, it was the inexplicable breeze blowing, the warm breeze made him stretch his body again, and his body slowly began to grow larger again, growing continuously, until the wisp disappeared, he felt that he had become a giant.
He was still standing in front of the cliff, and he could see farther away, and the continent on the other side seemed to be no longer so far away because of his growth. It's just that the abyss is still so wide that he can't cross it, Yue Rong seems to have a hint of enlightenment, and he turns around and walks back, he feels that only if he becomes big enough can he cross that Tianxin. And the only way to make yourself bigger is to practice, and use your feet to constantly practice and temper yourself in this sandy desert.
Tian Changbo's long-awaited phone call never came, and the three days he stayed here almost tortured him to the point of madness. He was hungry and thirsty, and he had to endure the terror of the riots that broke out again and again. Now above the underground bunker and behind the D-15 iron gate, the small hall was already crowded with people, and the door of the elevator room was open, and the inside was still crowded. The frightened people paid attention to everyone around them at all times, and did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and the tense nerves made everyone here more and more tired and uneasy.
In this underground space that cannot be reached by mobile phone communication signals, except for Tian Changbo, the three people know that picking out the worm line can delay the secret of mutation and spread it. Because they wanted to keep this secret, Ren Fang and Director He were both threatened by Tian Changbo, and they were also terrified, not knowing who would mutate into zombies in the next second. Tian Changbo didn't know how long he could hold out, and he wanted to use this secret to give him and his family great benefits and prestige. It's just that in the face of the threat to his life, he swayed and tormented in the extreme of fear and desire.
Director He and Ren Fang endured the condemnation of their inner conscience, but they could only compromise, for the sake of their future survival hope, they hated Tian Changbo, but they did not dare to challenge the authority that his identity brought to him. The space inside the underground bunker has become a world of zombies, and hundreds or thousands of lives will be their lingering spiritual shackles.
Beside them is Miao Lin, at this moment, although she is still charming and charming, but the exhaustion on her face and the deep haggard between her eyebrows have made her face begin to darken. If she hadn't waited for help today, what kind of riot would have happened to the desperate people here would have been a disaster she couldn't imagine, and she had always been strong, and suddenly she felt vulnerable as a woman. Ren Fang, who was beside Miao Lin, was silent in a trance, and she recalled Yue Rong's figure again. She often wondered if Yue Rong would leave with her if she spoke? It's like hell, and Tian Changbo is the demon who turned this place into hell, she thought.
The sudden sound of slamming the door suddenly woke up all the people in the small hall behind the D-15 door, and they all got up in an instant, looked in the direction of the door, and moved.
"Inside, open the door! We are from the 38th Army, and time is pressing..." followed by another clanging of the door. The young man's shout immediately made everyone excited, and the rescue finally came!
As soon as the people standing by the door opened the iron door, they were squeezed out by the people behind, and the people in the small hall cried and rushed towards the small door less than a meter. The screams mixed in the noise made her deeply feel the weakness of being a woman again. She didn't squeeze forward, but followed behind Tian Changbo and the three of them, slowly moving towards the door. When she passed the doorway, she saw that the beautiful girl's body had been trampled and deformed, and the girl who was lying on the ground, her body twisted, had lost any sound. Ren Fang and Miao Lin walked around the beautiful girl's corpse together in horror, one full of horror, the other full of sadness and confusion.
"Everyone line up, don't mess around, one follows the other, and we'll take everyone out." A young ensign shouted from the side to maintain order.
Lined up in two columns next to the second lieutenant, there were not many soldiers who came to the rescue, about 20 people, all covered in stains, and their dyed combat uniforms were even more ugly. Tian Changbo recognized it after just one glance, it was the black water that was unique to the corpses, and those soldiers covered in black water made him feel a bad feeling, spreading in his heart.
At this time, a large group of internal guard soldiers trotted over again, and the major in front of him glanced at the crowd, and after seeing Tian Changbo, he hurried to Tian Changbo in a few steps, and stood up and saluted, "Mr. Tian Changbo, please evacuate with us quickly!" ”
"Okay," Tian Changbo replied. He turned around and said to Director He, Ren Fang and Miao Lin, "You come with me." "Director He and Ren Fang know the secret of the mutation that is suspended, and there is no way he can keep them out of control. And Miao Lin's identity and family background make it impossible for him to let go of this convenient favor.
"Mr. Tian, the situation outside is more critical, you see ・・・・・・" Major Neiwei hesitated for a moment, leaned into Tian Changbo's ear and whispered.
"They must bring it, and if... then, you will do your order and carry out your mission." Tian Changbo thought about it for a moment and replied in a low voice.
The Major of the Internal Security understood this, and his task was to protect Tian Changbo's safety and escort him back to the garrison base. Since Tian Changbo said so, then the rest of the people are no longer important, and everything is only decided according to the situation after that.
"Thank you, Tian Gongzi." As soon as Director He came over, he humbly said thank you. And Ren Fang behind him lowered his head and did not speak; Miao Lin just smiled a little to show his appreciation.
"Let's go, I'll trouble you along the way." Tian Changbo said a word, and the major of the internal guard waved his hand, and dozens of internal guard soldiers escorted Tian Changbo and the four of them to go first. Behind them were the other survivors of the disgruntled army, and the 20 or so soldiers of the 38th Army, who had been badly contaminated.
Turning the corner, everyone was still shocked by the wall of corpses piled up by the zombies in front of the stairwell. Tian Changbo and Director He, Ren Fang couldn't help but think of the scene 3 days ago, and their thoughts were different for a while.
"That's how it was when we came, these zombies didn't have gunshot wounds on their bodies, the lower ones were all cut off with knives, and almost all the zombies above had their necks broken, and the way they were piled up was a bit weird." Major Neiwei glanced back at Tian Changbo and said so.
Tian Changbo's heart moved, and he asked, "Can you see anything?" Who did it? After asking, he glanced at Director He and Ren Fang, and motioned for them not to talk nonsense.
"No, you can't. It's weird, it's definitely not the big guys. And it looks like they've been sitting here for two or three days. I thought it was you survivors who did it, but I don't think it looks like it, zombies are so strong that people who can cut off their heads and break their necks need a lot of strength. Moreover, these zombies have almost only fatal injuries on their bodies, and there are almost no other injuries, and I think the people who can do this must be very experienced in combat and a very powerful group. Major Interior Guard said his analysis.
"Well, you're right." Tian Changbo nodded, feeling that this major's mind was quite thorough, and his eyesight was not bad.
Everyone bypassed this corpse wall, and Miao Lin kept quietly, observing the expressions of Director He and Ren Fang. Just now, she accidentally saw Tian Changbo's hidden, threatening eyes, and felt that something was a little strange. At this moment, from her observation of Director He and Ren Fang's demeanor, she found that they must know how this corpse wall was formed, and what were they hiding? Myorin wants to know!
PS: Say two things.
First, I recommend "Perfect Son-in-law", I have always been in the author group of Wu Bida, where I have met a lot of friends. I also want to break the news, Wu Bida is also a young man, and he does two things every time he haunts, one is to pick up girls, and the other is to kick the flying net, which is elusive.
Second, it's about newerness. I really want to update 10,000 words every day, but I insist on more than 20 hours of creative intensity every day, and this body is really a little unbearable, so I want to change it to two more, I hope you understand. In addition, there are a lot of debts at the end of the year recently, so the update time is placed after 10 o'clock in the morning, after 7 o'clock in the evening, there may be some deviations, but it will basically guarantee about 7,000 words per day.
