Chapter 104: An Island in the River

On the new day, Zeng Qiang walked out of the RV refreshed, everyone ate and drank late last night, and a good night's sleep made him energetic, and everyone walked out of the tent one after another, packing up their things.

Today he plans to continue walking along the river, because the food by the river is abundant, and after eating all kinds of fresh ingredients, everyone is reluctant to eat dry food.

Second, he suddenly thought last night that this river is not big, but it is not small, maybe people hide on some small islands in the middle of the river in order to avoid zombies.

Seeing that the team members were taking care of their bags and checking their equipment, Zeng Qiang nodded affirmatively, under his request, everyone was vigilant at any time, there are too many unknown dangers after the end of the world, and a little more preparation will be a little more security.

The convoy is moving forward, and the road by the river is relatively easy to walk, it is just a river path that has just been completed before the end of the world, it is a four-lane road, and there are not many vehicles on the road, and it is very easy to clean.

I don't know how the river was before the end of the world, but after the end of the world, there may be less pollution and discharge, the river water seems clear, and from time to time you can see big white and fat fish jumping around in the river.

Along the way, some small islands appeared in the river, some scattered islands are large and small, the small ones are only the size of one or two people, and the large ones are dozens or hundreds of square meters, and the islands are overgrown with all kinds of weeds.

There are many water hyacinths floating around the island, and their leaves are all exposed to the water, forming a part of the island, making it difficult to tell the size of the island.

Zeng Qiang didn't stop the convoy, these islands are too small, it's good to be able to hide a few people, what he wants is the kind of big island that can hide more people.

The river grew wider and wider, and after two kilometres the convoy came to the confluence of a river, which merged into a large and wide river, which might be more appropriately called a river, because it was wider, and the water flowed faster and more turbulently.

The convoy stopped, waiting for Zeng Qiang to come up with an idea.

"Brother Qiang, do you think we are going upstream along the river, or down?" Xia Wei stopped the car and asked.

"Let's go up, I think the upstream is a little more desolate, and the downstream may go to Yongchuan City." Zeng Qiang made a decision.

A few more kilometers were walked upstream.

"Brother Qiang, look, there is a big island in the river, you see there is a tower crane on it, and the banner hanging on it should be a construction site preparing to build a house." Xia Wei stopped the car and said.

Zeng Qiang's eyesight is good, and he has long seen the island in the river, and a faded banner reads: "Lifan Real Estate Development Co., Ltd." ”

The convoy stopped, and there were only a few scattered zombies nearby, as well as a herd of hundreds of zombies that were attracted by the convoy and followed them.

Zeng Qiang originally intended to let the big yellow dog take the little wolf to deal with these zombies, and by the way, take a look at the little wolf's ability, but Wang Xin didn't let it live or die, she was now full of 'maternal love' for the little wolf, and she didn't want it to be hurt a little.

The team members were instructed, and with the old team members and the new team members, these zombies were successfully eliminated.

After the zombies were solved, Zeng Qiang asked Xia Wei to look for ships that could cross the river along the river, because Yongchuan also has a cargo terminal, so there are many ships anchored on the river, and what is missing is only diesel fuel that can be started.

There was no shortage of diesel convoys, and soon two refueled fishing boats were ready.

Zeng Qiang asked Wang Xinhe, the bearded man, and some of the team members to stay in the convoy, while he took Xia Wei, Gu Tao, and three team members to board the fishing boat and sail towards the small island in the river.

The reason why Zeng Qiang is obsessed with finding survivors on the islands is because in his opinion, these islands are natural places of refuge, although zombies are not afraid of water, but according to the experience he has summed up in the battle with zombies for a long time, zombies do not like water.

And the river is so turbulent, unless there is an order from the corpse king, tens of thousands of zombies come to fill the river, otherwise the scattered zombies can't get close to the island at all.

Coupled with the abundance of food on the island, a variety of wild vegetables and aquatic products, it is presumably impossible for those who hide on it to go hungry.

The two fishing boats landed on the shore without any danger, Zeng Qiang also breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid of encountering any mutated animals in the water, after all, even earth dogs could mutate, and he didn't feel strange about what mutated fish appeared.

A group of six people all went ashore, and Gu Tao led people to carry the materials and ammunition unloaded from the boat and followed Zeng Qiang, and set off towards the construction site in the center of the island together.

The vegetation on the island is more lush than on the riverbank, of course, there are a lot of wild vegetables, Zeng Qiang didn't pay attention to it at first, but as he walked, he found that something was wrong, there were not only many wild vegetables here, but also the growth of a piece of area very regularly, and the land under the wild vegetables seemed to have been reclaimed.

There are no weeds to be seen in the middle of the wild plants, which is almost impossible elsewhere, and it is usually a few wild plants growing in the weeds.

"Brother Qiang, there should be someone here." Xia Wei also noticed that something was wrong.

Zeng Qiang nodded, asking everyone not to speak, and try not to make any movement, so as not to startle the snake.

The closer you get to the construction site, the more you find some food bags, cigarette butts, and some household garbage, and even a lot of eaten fish bones appear on the ground.

The size of the island is unknown, but since it can be developed on it, it must not be small, and after nearly twenty minutes of walking, they approached the construction site.

The construction site is not large, and the unfinished buildings are not high, and judging from the prototype of the construction, it is estimated that it was developed as a villa for the wealthy.

The site is surrounded by a fence and the gate is closed, but one wall has clearly collapsed, but it has been artificially sealed with shrubs and earth.

"Brother Qiang, should we go in?" Gu Tao asked subconsciously, and he tightened the rifle in his hand.

"You stay outside, we'll sneak in, and if there's anything wrong, shoot first." Zeng Qiang instructed Gu Tao well, and took the rest of the people to climb through the wall.

"Ahhh As soon as Zeng Qiang landed, a burly man rushed over and pounced on Zeng Qiang, and behind him there were two slightly stronger men, each holding a wooden stick full of nails in his hand.

Seeing that someone was coming, Zeng Qiang did not panic or move, and he even told Xia Wei that they should not move.

Zeng Qiang's move fell in the eyes of the man opposite, that is, he thought he was scared stupid, and the man on the other side was overjoyed when he saw this scene, the howl in his mouth was louder, and his steps were more brisk.

When someone approached, the other party raised the wooden stick and was about to knock it down on the top of Zeng Qiang's head, Zeng Qiang's eyes were cold, looking at the nails on the wooden stick, this blow wanted to kill him.

"Poof!" Before the man knew what was going on, he flew upside down and knocked the two people who followed him to the ground.

After a few screams, the three big men rolled together, lying on the ground humming mmmm*, unable to get up for a while.

Zeng Qiang stood in place, took out a cigarette from his pocket, Xia Wei lit it for him very doggedly, spit out a puff of smoke, and instantly his image became unfathomable.

The man in the lead quietly looked around and found that Zeng Qiang and the others were just standing in place and did not take the next step. Roll over and get up and run away.

"Click." The sound of the bolt of the gun was pulled, and the man turned his head with difficulty, saw a few jet-black muzzles, and swallowed his saliva unconsciously, dense fine sweat immediately appeared on his forehead, and his legs and stomach were trembling slightly.

It is difficult to know what it is like to be pointed at a gun without being pointed at a gun, and the man only feels that his lower abdomen is very distended, and a strong sense of defecation comes, and the instep of his feet is cold and flows out.
