Chapter XVI: Divergence

When I came, there was a huge team of fifteen people, and when I went back, there were only eleven people left, which was the result of Wang Lei and Su Xue'er joining. But fortunately, all the zombies in the convenience store were lured away, and everyone went around in a circle, entered the convenience store again, and harvested a lot of food.

Wang Lei followed Xu Dayong's team and walked for about two hours, and finally came to a farmhouse, which is the gathering place that Xu Dayong said.

"It's a good place, it's sparsely populated, and it's close to the national highway, so it's easy to evacuate if there's anything going on. Wang Lei looked at this farmhouse and made an evaluation.

"Brother, if you think it's good, why don't you stay?" Xu Dayong tried to persuade Wang Lei.

"That's right, with my brother's ability, it's no problem to be a vice-captain. One of the team members also advised.

"What vice captain is not vice captain, as long as my brother is willing to stay, lead us to kill zombies and live. My position as captain is completely up to Hyun. Xu Dayong increased his chips.

"Brother Xu, it's not that I don't want to stay, but Xue'er and I have other things, or it won't be long before we go to JZ, where there is a gathering place of 100,000 people," Wang Lei told everyone about the information he got from the telegram.

"Hmph, there is still a government in this world. "It seems that Xu Dayong is very dissatisfied with the government's inaction.

"I said brother, JZ is a big city with a population of more than two million. There are only 100,000 survivors, which means that the zombies are at least about 1.9 million, even if there are enough weapons and ammunition, it is impossible to deal with so many zombies. What's more, I don't know if you have noticed, now the temperature is constant in all seasons, day and night, and all plants have stopped growing. In other words, the food crisis is coming, the gathering place of 100,000 people, the consumption of materials is massive, once there is no food source, how long can these 100,000 people last?" Xu Dayong analyzed.

"It seems that this Xu Dayong is still a talent! Just one address, and the number of survivors, can analyze so much. Thinking of this, Wang Lei opened his mouth and asked: "Then Brother Xu, tell me, with our people, what should we do?"

"It's simple, stay here. As it stands, at least we are familiar with the city, and we don't have many of us, so as long as we can get 20% of the food in the city, it will not be a problem to hold on for ten or eight years. The main thing is that it is easily accessible, so we can evacuate in time in case of any emergency. Xu Dayong said what he thought in his heart.

"It's a small city, but it has a resident population of about 500,000, and we can't say for sure how many survivors there are. But if we want to get this 20 percent of the supplies, we have to face at least more than 100,000 zombies, can we rely on a dozen of us with bare hands?" Wang Lei struck.

In his opinion, if he really wants to follow the method Xu Dayong said, then he might as well go it alone with Su Xue'er. At least with the help of Wangcai, it is still possible for two people and one dog to save enough rations for four or five years, plus the shelter in the secret room of the villa, the nuclear bomb cannot penetrate it, let alone the little zombies.

"Although the number of people is a little smaller, there are also advantages of fewer people, which is easy to maneuver and will not attract large-scale zombies. As long as you have enough weapons and ammunition, it is still easy to seize supplies. It's just that what we lack most at the moment is weapons and ammunition. My two brothers, who used to be in the police department, knew where to have ammunition, but they needed to get into the city center. The attention of the arsenal, we didn't dare to fight before, but since we have seen Brother Wang's skills and Miss Su's marksmanship. I'm quite confident in seizing the arsenal, I wonder if the two of you are willing to join us?" Xu Dayong recruited Wang Lei and the others again.

"To be honest, no matter what happens in the future, Su Xueer and I are always going to JZ. So I'm afraid I can't join you, but we can work together to seize the arsenal, and I only need 30% of the ammunition and supplies we get. Wang Lei put forward his own conditions.

Wang Lei has his own plans, and he thinks differently from Xu Dayong. Xu Dayong is just an ordinary person, just thinking about a corner of peace and living his own free life. Wang Lei is different, since eating that "stone", his thinking has changed, he wants to gather more survivors, strive to eliminate zombies as soon as possible, and at the very least, find a safe habitat for living humans.

"Well, since Brother Wang said so, he must have his own plans. It's rare to meet you today, brother, and it can be regarded as my Xu's fate, the meal has been prepared, let's have a few drinks. Xiao Li went to take out the 20-year-old Moutai cellar that he got at that family last time, and let Brother Wang and Miss Su taste it. The solicitation again was fruitless, and Xu Dayong was not insisting, and at this time, it was just time for dinner, and everyone began to sit down to eat.

The wine is good wine, and the food is cooked food that I got from the convenience store earlier. Eating spicy strips and drinking Moutai, in this last days, it can be regarded as a luxurious life.

"Brother Xu, aren't there still seven women among your survivors? Why don't you come over for dinner together?" After a few glasses of wine, Wang Lei suddenly asked.

There were only eleven people sitting at the big table of twenty people, and it was empty, but there was only one girl, Su Xueer, and Wang Lei was afraid that she would be embarrassed.

"Brother Wang, you just came, you don't know the rules. The brothers are fighting with the zombies outside, not to protect these girls. They stay at home comfortably, serve us, and reward them with a bite to eat, how can they be qualified to sit at the same table with our brothers who eat with their heads?" Xiao Li, who went to get the wine earlier, maybe drank too much, and even began to say those heart-wrenching words to Wang Lei.

"Xiao Li, you drank too much, Brother Wang, don't mind. Xiao Zhao went to invite Xiaolan here, she was a good friend of Brother He Bing, and Brother He Bing took the initiative to sacrifice in order to cover us. Ran is eligible to sit at the same table with us. Xu Dayong snorted, and then asked a brother to go to the back to invite someone.

Although Xu Dayong did not explicitly agree with Xiao Li's words, what he did fully proved the thoughts of the people present.

And although Wang Lei doesn't agree with their opinions very much, this is an internal matter, and he is not easy to intervene.

However, Su Xue'er on the side was not happy

"There are different divisions of labor between men and women, and you can indeed be called a man when you kill zombies in front of you to find supplies. But those women have also helped you in the rear! Without these women, how can your self-made weapons be produced? Without these women, how can you have a meal as soon as you get home? What's more, if you don't kill the zombies, you will be killed by the zombies, or even starve to death. It's not so much to protect these women as it is to fight for yourself, please don't talk about yourself so noblely. "Su Xue'er was still a student before the end of her life, with little social experience, and she spoke straightforwardly.

"Miss Su's words, although they are very reasonable, but today's society is different. The other day we found a group of survivors, probably more than a dozen people. Do you know how they treat the women in the team? Not only did they make the only two women sex slaves for more than a dozen people, but they also made these two women responsible for attracting zombies. Eating the worst food and doing the most dangerous work are merciful compared to us. Xu Dayong explained.

"So you also follow each other's example, and let the women in the team become, your sex slaves, don't serve you heroes well, and you won't even have a mouthful of food?" Su Xue'er became more and more angry the more she spoke.

At this time, she finally understood why the person named He Bing had to say sorry to Xiaolan when he was dying. It turns out that they don't love each other, everything is just a transaction. Today's world is really different, in order to have a full meal, women in the last days have begun to be reduced to material goods. This is still the end of the world, food supplies are still sufficient, as long as you are willing to take risks, you can always find food.

"Xue'er is enough, this is an internal matter of Brother Xu, and we are not qualified to interject. Wang Lei was afraid that things would get out of control, so he hurriedly drank Su Xue'er.

"I'm full, I'm fine, I'll go back first, I'm not used to staying in this kind of place for a long time. Su Xue'er put down her chopsticks and got up to leave.

"That little girl is not sensible, I'll go back and tell her, the cooperation between us is still effective, and I'll inform you when I go back and think of a way." Su Xueer left, and Wang Lei had to get up in a hurry to say goodbye.
