Chapter 22: Survival of the Fittest

"What are you doing with timekeeping?" Yang Xiaohai didn't understand.

"Count if I'm going to get sick. From infection to onset, very quickly. Wang Qing replied lightly, as if she was talking about someone else's business.

"Okay, let's ......," Yang Xiaohai replied dryly.

"A little curious, you're like this to everyone? Or, aren't you afraid that we are murderers? Wang Qing was puzzled by Yang Xiaohai's generosity.

"Counting from the lake, I knew you were lying. It's nothing to be hungry and see food, excitement, excitement. But you've been trying to distract me all the way, coupled with Wu Yi's wandering eyes and deliberate woodenness, I can't help but doubt you. ”

"I didn't hide it at the beginning, I thought it was a good performance! Since you see that something is wrong, why do you still take us home? Aren't you a handicapped person with a low IQ? Wang Qing seemed to be scolding.

Yang Xiaohai immediately retorted: "You have a low IQ, your whole family has a low IQ!" ”

Seeing Yang Xiaohai's hair, Wang Qing immediately apologized: "Yo, I'm sorry, I'm sorry...... If you accidentally say what is in your heart, don't you mind. I just can't figure it out. ”

“…… I'm more afraid of loneliness than death. You don't understand the feeling of abandonment. One person with one eye open, one person with one eye closed, one person still eating alone. With no friends, no family, it's as if you're the only one left in the world. You have only been in the last days for more than two months, but I have been in the last days for more than four years......

I knew that you might turn your face, and even have the idea of taking over the 'shelter', but I still opened the door. At best, the two of you will be in a fuss, and I am confident that I am in control. It's better for the three of them to fight the end times together than to wait for death alone, right? If we didn't have a gun, we might be preparing dinner together at this time......" Yang Xiaohai explained his plans and plates.

"I see. I really don't understand the loneliness you are talking about, but you can't think about things with wishful thinking. willful, casual, you won't live long in the last days! After several contacts, Wang Qing felt that Yang Xiaohai was very easy to get along with. Or they believe that they have been infected, and their days are numbered, and their confrontational attitudes have calmed down a lot.

"The gentleman is frank and open, and he is not afraid of crooked shadows." Yang Xiaohai has a different view.

"Survival is the premise of being alive. In the last days, you have to obey the laws of the last days. Let your 'gentleman' go and tell the 'infected' to go, I just know that if you want to live, you have to eat the weak. Wang Qing insisted on her opinion.

"So you're selfish and live by robbery and deception?" Yang Xiaohai exhaled and stood up.

Seeing that the old otaku was emotional, Wang Qing lowered her voice and said softly: "Actually, you are exactly the same as me two months ago. My experience may change something. ”

Yang Xiaohai raised his eyebrows: "It can be regarded as getting to the point." It's not verbose, but it's okay to talk about it! ”

“…… I studied in the 'Carrier City'. The reason why we got to the reservoir has to start from two months ago. ”

"At the beginning of February, when the virus broke out?"

"Hmm. I remember it was Monday and the school was on winter break. I signed up for a tour group and took a bus to the reservoir to relax. I was going to empty my mind, but I didn't think about it, but I encountered a virus outbreak. ”

"Oh I see, 'big', right? Oh, college students. So talented girl, what do you think about the infection? Yang Xiaohai was a little speechless.

"'Yuanda' Department of International Trade, junior year." 'Talented women' are not counted, I am a poor student. I'm afraid I don't know as much about viral infections. On the day of the outbreak of the virus, the company had the word 'Good Friday', and other companies called it more, but it had little to do with us. Why, you don't even know this? Wang Qing replied casually. The expression is natural, and it seems that he is completely relaxed.

"Yuanda" is the highest university of the Far Eastern Provincial Company, and those who can be admitted must at least be the "scholars" of the local branches. Yang Xiaohai didn't even study in high school, and he was a proper "scumbag". Knowing that Wang Qing still has this identity, he can't help but be a little envious.

"Besides, should I know?" Good Friday'? It's really embarrassing, why don't you call it 'Pit Daddy Day', 'Unlucky Day' and 'Death Day Together'? "Actually, I really don't blame Wang Qing, Yang Xiaohai's way of thinking is really different.

"It doesn't matter what your name is, I know it from watching TV."

"Oh? What do you hear? Let's talk about it. Yang Xiaohai was a little excited. After two months of being off the Internet, any wind and grass is intelligence.

"I talked so much, I don't remember it. To the effect that we should stay at home, the company will help as soon as possible. I waited for almost two months, only to find the mercenary's corpse. Speaking of this, Wang Qing lowered her head.

"That antique gun, a mercenary?" Yang Xiaohai realized it later.

"It can be seen that the state company has also tried to control the situation, but in the end it still failed. I ran into a guy who had fallen to his death and flipped over his revolver and a couple of bullets. The gun is old and should be in a private collection. ”

"That's good luck. How can the mercenaries of the national company let the weapons be left behind? Yang Xiaohai affirmed Wang Qing's statement.

"As a freshman, I had a blank slate. At that time, the world was classrooms, study rooms, cafeterias, dormitories. I really didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and it wasn't until the sisters had their own older brothers that I realized I was outdated. For the sake of face, I also talked about one in my sophomore year. Hehe, of course it's not Wu Yi. It's a scumbag, a scumbag to the point where he doesn't even want to mention his name. Wang Qing's face was sad, it seems that this relationship is not as light as she said.

"It's like a campus youth soap opera, it's been a year and it's been divided. So I didn't go home for the winter break, so I stayed at the school. I heard that the reservoir of the 'Huabai City Company' is quite interesting, so I came here. Fortunately, if you stay in school, I'm afraid you will be eaten by your classmates, right? Scold...... Day trip, only a mobile phone. I'm wearing local clothes. That's why I pretend to be a local when I see you. Look at me, I digress to talk about it. Well, let's talk about something useful. Yang Xiaohai picked up the bag of compressed biscuits from the ground and nibbled them as snacks.

"The bus departed early that day, and it was not yet nine o'clock when we arrived at the dam. As soon as we got off the bus, we met an old local man. The old man was in a very bad condition, and he fell right in front of us. The driver was kind enough to check it. There are also quite a few people who call for ambulances. I was in a bad mood and wasn't a doctor, so I just watched from afar and didn't make it up.

I watched as the old man's skin turned gray and rotten, and his veins turned black; Then the old man got up and bit the driver, and then climbed and bit others indiscriminately. Five young and strong men worked together to barely press the old man to the ground. Afraid that he would get up and bite again, he simply tied him to the car.

In the process of subduing the old man, several young people were scratched and injured by the old man. The phone was full of busy tones, and the driver didn't dare to drive anymore when he saw that something was wrong, so I walked around listening to songs on the dam of the reservoir. After only four or five songs and about half an hour, the car was full of man-eating monsters. I was scared at the time, I just knew how to follow others and run away. ”

Yang Xiaohai didn't interrupt Wang Qing's memories, but just remembered the "half an hour" in his heart.

"When I hid in a red-brick backyard, I realized that there were only four people left. In addition to me and a girl of eighteen or nineteen, there were three other men. One of them is Wu Yi. The other two men knew each other, about forty years old, not tall, but strong, just like you. ”

Yang Xiaohai pursed his mouth, feeling unhappy: "Just say it, why are you carrying me?" I'm only twenty, am I that old? ”

"It didn't take long for us to find out that it wasn't safe to be stupid here. The ubiquitous 'infected' soon spread everywhere. In desperation, we could only run, keep running, keep running.

The infection has just broken out, and in the first few days, it is not difficult to dodge. But after holding on for a week, he was surrounded and trapped by more and more 'infected people', and there was no way to escape.

When he was frightened, he inadvertently stepped on the cellar lid, and this gave him a glimmer of life.

In the days that followed, we relied on the cabbage for the winter and the hand-pressed water well in the cellar, and we held out for a long time.

I was going to hide for only a few days, but who would have thought that the whole world would change next. There are 'infected' wandering everywhere, and we can't get out at all!

A month later, the cabbage was finally gone. When the hungry eyes are glazed, people become more and more desperate. When hunger and despair reached their peak, two middle-aged men joined forces and tied me up with the girl. ”

Yang Xiaohai looked at Wang Qing, who had a calm face, as if he saw the scene of two skinny and dying girls being pressed down in a dimly lit and narrow cellar.

He cautiously asked, "And then?" Of course, this question can be left unanswered. I'm just curious what Wu Yi was doing at the time? ”

Wu Yi was knocked unconscious. As I struggled, I saw a long cut in his head.

Yang Xiaohai looked at Wang Qing, who was calm on the surface, but clenched her fists tightly, and instantly felt that she was not so hateful and hateful.

"In the cellar, day and night are distinguished by the change of light. Two nights later, Wu Yi, who was immortal, woke up. He stoned two men in the heads. I just watched and watched Wu Yi smash two men to death! Wang Qing's voice was very cold.

"That's not right!" Yang Xiaohai, who pricked up his ears, heard the omission. He stubbornly asked, "So, what about the girl?" ”

"Because she's younger than me!"

"Huh?"

Yang Xiaohai really didn't understand.

Wang Qing suddenly smiled, but there were no wrinkles at the corners of her eyes: "Because she is younger than me, her flesh is also more delicate than mine." At that time, rotten cabbage leaves were treasures. We've been out of food for a long time, so you should understand, right? ”

"Got it, I'm here!"

Yang Xiaohai scratched his head, and suddenly thought of something, only to feel a surge in his stomach - "vomit"!
