Chapter 172: Cruel and Ruthless
The yellow-colored school bus carrying Ling Xiu and the five of them rushed out of Chimelong City all the way, and the body was covered with black blood and carrion. Hearing the earth-shattering roar of S3 coming from the direction of Chimelong City, the five of them all had a feeling of unreality.
They survived the siege of hundreds of thousands of zombies! It's unimaginable!
It was like a terrible nightmare, but fortunately, the nightmare finally woke up.
The car drove north and stopped five or six kilometers away from Chimelong City.
After resting for the night and recovering their spirits, Ling Xiu and Zhang Yifei turned back to Chimelong City and promised Hao Ping that they would definitely do it, it was a promise that belonged to a man.
For Ling Xiu, there is one thing worth rejoicing, that is, the dried bacon is indeed comparable to raw meat, and he had a bloodthirsty desire last night~ When he looked at it, he slowly calmed down after eating some bacon.
In other words, he can hunt some animals in the future, dry their meat into bacon and take it on his body, and eat some in time when he feels that he is about to lose control of his bloodthirsty instincts.
********
Returning to Chimelong City again, Ling Xiu and Zhang Yifei both felt terrified.
In the early morning, Chimelong City was foggy and white, and all the buildings were in a white fog, and you could not see anything more than ten meters away.
"The home of parallel goods is at No. 89 Xunwu Road, it should be here."
Zhang Yifei looked up at the house number, and finally found the location.
Ling Xiu observed the house in front of him, it was very dilapidated, the anti-theft windows of every house were rusty and corroded, and all kinds of small advertisements were densely posted on the walls, such as unlocking, applying for permits, and gas ...... Wait, make this piece look dirty.
"On what floor?"
"On the fourth floor, there is a string of Buddhist beads hanging in front of the door, and the parallel goods are Buddhas." Zhang Yifei said.
Ling Xiu nodded, took out his military thorn, and took the lead in walking towards the building. The corridor is very narrow, only three people can pass through at a time, and even in the corridor, those small advertisements are everywhere.
The whole building was silent, except for the sound of their footsteps. Such an atmosphere can't help but make people's nerves tense.
There are two suites on each floor, and the rosewood wooden doors of some houses are half open, and the inside is pitch black, as if there is a cold wind blowing out, and it seems that a rotten and pus-bleeding zombie face will appear at any time.
Zhang Yifei walked over and reached out to close it.
"Bang"
The sound was silent, but it was unusually harsh in the silence of the building.
Ling Xiu, who was walking in front, turned his head and cast an inquiring glance at him, he spread his hands helplessly and shook his head and said, "No way, I have obsessive-compulsive disorder, and when I see the door open, I can't help but close them." ”
Ling Xiu let out a headache and continued to walk towards the fourth floor.
Suddenly, a zombie appeared from the corner of the corridor, it was only half a body, dragging its dirty intestines on the ground and crawling towards Ling Xiu. The folds of skin and flesh on his face were stacked together, like dry leaves, the upper and lower lips were gone, and the two rows of gums were exposed, as hideous as a ghost.
Ling Xiu, who had seen too many of these zombies, was only slightly stunned, and then calmly pierced its eyebrows with a military thorn to help it get free. And after seeing this zombie, he and Zhang Yifei's hearts suddenly became heavy.
Deep down, they were actually worried about the same thing, but both of them tacitly didn't say it clearly.
……
There is indeed a string of Buddhist beads hanging on the fourth floor of the house, and the wall around the gate is pasted with a couplet posted during the Chinese New Year.
The door was locked, but Zhang Yifei opened it with a stick.
As soon as I entered the door, a simple atmosphere came to my face, and the house was very neat and tidy, but it was covered with a layer of dust at this time. There is a TV, a bench, and a shrine platform where a porcelain statue of Guanyin is enshrined, and when you get closer, you can smell the scent of incense and candles.
On one wall, there are large and small awards, and the name of the person awarded on the award certificate is Hao Pingping.
Won the Three Merit Student Award, the Progress Award, and the Lei Feng Good Deed Award...... and so on, all of which are awards won by Hao Ping from primary school to junior high school. In another place, there is a huge picture frame, which contains almost all photos of Hao Pingping, documenting his journey from infant to adulthood.
These things made Ling Xiu and Zhang Yifei feel inexplicably sentimental.
Zhang Yifei squeezed out a smile and grinned: "Parallel goods were really good when I was a child, but it's a pity that I was disabled!" ”
Ling Xiu smiled lightly, turned around to find Hao Pingping's mother, and the moment he pushed open the bedroom door, he was completely stunned.
Hao Pingping's mother was sitting on a chair, her figure was rickety, and she looked very lonely. She held a photo frame in her hand and looked out the window, but her hands stroked Hao Pingping's college graduation photo in a master's uniform over and over again.
Her hair had fallen out a lot, only a few strands, her skin was wrinkled, there was no moisture to speak of, and in some places it had been cracked. The skin and flesh are restrained, and they look as thin as wood.
She has become a zombie!
Seeing all this, Zhang Yifei was extremely sad, and said in a wooden voice: "Why didn't she attack us?" ”
"Perhaps, like those zombies at the train station in Gannan City, her consciousness before her death occupies a dominant position." Ling Xiu explained.
Zhang Yifei changed his usual shapelessness, and said with a bitter smile: "Do you know Lao Ling, seeing her, I think human beings are invincible." ”
Ling Xiu nodded, yes, even if she turned into a zombie, she was still waiting for her son to come back, with a kind face, the powerful X virus can erode people's bodies, but it can't cut off a mother's thoughts about her son, and the will of human beings can never be enslaved.
"Let's go!" After looking at it for a while, Ling Xiu offered to leave.
Before leaving, he sent Hao Pingping's mother away.
At this moment, the two of them felt more and more the cruelty and ruthlessness of the last days. The son died, was blown to pieces, and the mother became a zombie, and in the face of the end times, even going home to visit his mother and fulfilling his filial piety to his mother is a luxury and unattainable dream, which makes people feel sad.
On the way out of Chimelong City, Ling Xiu and Zhang Yifei didn't say a word, and the mother who had become a zombie, but was still waiting for her son's return, was deeply imprinted in their minds.
"Love Cai, have you found Big Brother Level's mother?"
Back in front of the school bus, Tang Xiaomo greeted him and couldn't wait to ask.
"Found it!" Ling Xiu replied with a smile, and then walked into the school bus with his head down.
"Where?"
Tang Xiaomo sucked his fingers and looked left and right, curious about where Ling Xiu and Zhang Yifei had hidden Hao Pingping's mother.
Chu Liyue and Zhang Ruolan naturally guessed the truth of the matter, were stunned, and then walked into the car without saying a word.
