Chapter 230: Corpse Hunter
To explain, the chapter numbers from the two hundred and sixteen and two hundred and twenty-nine chapters are written incorrectly, and they are all written as one hundred xxx, and the order is correct, and it has no effect on the reading.
Li Yan and they cautiously touched over, looking out between a tree branch, more than ten meters away, a group of people were holding an iron rod more than ten meters long in their hands, the end of the iron rod lasso has a noose, the noose is put on the neck of the zombie, those people have crossbow arrows or bows on their backs, and they also have short knives on their bodies, although there are no hot weapons, but the equipment is already very complete, and they are roaring excitedly at this time, spitting on the zombies from time to time, or using the iron rod to top those zombies.
This is the first time Li Yan has seen someone catch zombies, and it is definitely not the first time to see them, he can't help but feel a little strange, it is understandable to catch zombies, the key is what these people are doing with zombies? They look like farmers hunting, and the zombies are like their prey.
The level of those zombies is very messy, there are ordinary zombies and level zombies, and the highest level is actually a lv5 high-level zombie.
The people yelled for a while, perhaps tired, and after tying the iron rods with the zombies to the trees with ropes, several people sat together, took out food and drink from the bags they were carrying, and sat around and chatted.
"These people are corpse hunters." At this moment, Chen Jun on Xiaoshui's back said in a low voice.
"Let's take a detour." Li Yan glanced back at Chen Jun and said to the others.
Naturally, others have no objections. After all, they are not suitable for contact with anyone right now.
They followed the path they had come from to the left and spared some way, and when they found a stream, Li Yan stopped everyone.
As soon as he sat down, Chen Jun sat down on the lower edge of the stream and soaked his feet in the water, although the effect was not very good, but the cold stream water could still relieve some pain.
Sun Congsheng walked up to Chen Jun and asked, "The corpse hunters you are talking about are the same people we saw just now." Can the captured zombies be taken to Taibai City to exchange for food? ”
Chen Jun looked up at Sun Congsheng, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, he nodded and said, "You can exchange food, as well as cold weapons and..."
He stopped at this point and didn't go any further.
"Women?" Li Yan took over.
Chen Jun nodded and said: "There is no need to hide this, women are just female slaves, some women who could not enter the city in the first place, become female slaves, and they can live in the city for a few more days." ”
"Survival and ** are the two most basic requirements for human life. It's also normal. Sun Congsheng echoed.
"It's so inhuman!" Guo Jin looked a little angry.
"The reality is so cruel, let alone at a time like this." Li Yan smiled bitterly, to say that he was still compassionate before. Experienced so much. He saw it thoroughly, he frowned and said, "However, what does Taibai City want zombies for?" ”
"This... I don't know..."Chen Jun shook his head, "Although the high-walled city belongs to the government, to be honest. It's already relatively autonomous. ”
"Just like the warlords and princes in ancient times, those zombies outside are like thieves and bandits, and when they are bigger, they are almost like the Yellow Turban Army, and the government can't control it." Sun Congsheng said metaphorically.
"Almost, you know it." Chen Jun looked at Sun Congsheng. Said in agreement.
"Then it's more troublesome for us to go to Yanjing." Sun Congsheng stretched out his hand to support his chin, his brows furrowed. "If you want to borrow a helicopter, it's a big deal."
After he had finished speaking, the others did not speak again, and their heads were all pondered how to get there, except for the clear sound of the stream flowing through the stones.
"Whew... Whew..."
At this moment, a roar was heard in the distant woods.
Li Yan looked at the source of the voice, his face changed slightly, and said, "Hide, it seems to be in the other direction." ”
"We're hiding over there, it's downwind, and it's not easy to be discovered." Sun Congsheng pointed to the downhill on the right and said.
Li Yan nodded, Xiao Shui carried Chen Jun on his back, Guo Jin brought his bag, and several people quickly hid.
After a while, zombies appeared at the end of the path, and there were very many of them, and there were a lot of them, and there were actually mutants inside, there were two first-level sour mutants in front, and there was also one in the innermost, Li Yan was shocked when he saw it, it was actually a third-level scorpion tongue mutant.
The scorpion-tongued mutant stopped abruptly as it walked, as if sensing something strange around it, and poked its head to look around.
Several of them lowered their heads, holding their breath and not daring to come out.
The mutant stood for more than half a minute before turning back and continuing to follow the group.
Only then did they hold their chests and exhale slowly.
It took about five or six minutes for the zombie horde to finish under their noses.
As soon as they were finished, several people sat down and exhaled heavily.
"What the fuck is wrong, why are there so many zombies all at once!" Guo Jin complained and said, he was fat and had a larger lung capacity, but he was choking enough.
"Why do these zombies look so like... Army? Sun Congsheng's face was a little solemn.
"There are at least hundreds of them, and the mutant looks like it's the leader." Li Yan added that he also had a bad premonition.
"Look at their direction is to go to Taibai Mountain, and they will follow us on the same road." Sun Congsheng pointed to the front and said, "And those corpse hunters have ten ** to plant." ”
"Let's go, let's follow the zombies." Li Yan said suddenly.
"What?! We're following? Guo Jin was taken aback, thinking that he had misheard.
"Sanhuo is right, we are relatively safe behind the zombies, and the zombies can help us avoid the rebels." Sun Congsheng said.
"However, if we are found by zombies, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Guo Jin still looked very uneasy.
"It's okay for zombies to talk a little, they can be seen face to face, just be vigilant, if you meet the rebels and put cold guns, it's useless to have long eyes." Chen Jun said coldly, he seemed to have a big opinion of the rebels.
"Let's go, these zombies should have a purpose, they keep moving forward like this, it's not a big problem for us to follow behind." Li Yan finally made a decision.
Guo Jin spread his hands, and finally had to accept it, and the group followed the zombies, keeping a distance of about one or twenty meters, and walked all the way to the direction of Taibai Mountain.
It's Luo Luo, who hasn't appeared since he disappeared from the helicopter, and even Li Yan's mind has no sound, he originally wanted to go in and have a look, but he didn't have time to see it at this time.
The group followed the zombies for every stretch of the way, and found the corpses of those corpse hunters on the side of the road, most of them were eaten and there was not much left, and they could only be vaguely identified by their clothes.
They looked at it a few times, didn't care, and continued to follow the zombie group.
On the way, Chen Jun told them about some other things, such as rebels and corpse hunters.
The rebels are composed of some people who have been denied entry into the city, it is said that they are led by a person named Lin, no one knows what his real name is, only such a code name, their favorite thing to do is to kill the people in the city, compared to zombies, they hate the people in Taibai City more.
But think about it, Qinling provides them with a natural barrier, and the threat of zombies is obviously more infuriating than Taibai City's non-acceptance, which is the same as the peasant rebels in ancient times, thieves and rogues make them hungry and unclothed, and in the end they must be exposed.
As for the corpse hunters, they are the forces between the rebels and Taibai City, they are not specific to whom, in some ways, they are bold, such as capturing zombies, in other ways, they are cowardly, they hate the people of Taibai City, they also hate the rebels, and they hate the war between the two, they just want to live.
After listening to Chen Jun's narration, Li Yan finally had an understanding of Taibai City, but the situation seemed to have become a lot more complicated, if they could borrow a helicopter in Taibai City and fly to Yanjing City, it would be the best, if not, borrow a car, then the problem would become much more difficult, after all, the rebel forces outside Taibai Mountain are still there, and it is not easy to leave safely in the borrowed car in Taibai City.
The main problem is that Li Yan is now a small water, and it is impossible to find other flying corpses in a short period of time, or he should need at least two or three bronze armored corpses before he can fly to Yanjing by himself.
Of course, there is a big premise in this, that is, Chen Jun must be alive, otherwise they will not be able to see Lei Zhenfeng at that time.
"Bang!"
At this moment, there was a sudden loud noise, and several people ran back for a while, and after leaving a distance of dozens of meters, they found a bush and lay down inside, and then looked forward, and saw that the zombie group was blown up by something, and it had become a pot of porridge, and then, bursts of gunfire rang out in the surrounding woods, and the noisy sound represented the sufficient firepower behind it.
