Chapter 24: Be bold
I couldn't agree with Gu Yu's idea, even though I haven't seen the real corpses yet, I'd rather their numbers be reduced.
Thinking of the corpse, I thought of the eight-armed and eight-legged monster I saw on the second floor of the underground parking lot, and I also cooperated with Gu Yu anyway, so the information naturally had to be shared, so I described the situation I saw to him in detail.
After talking about the eight-legged monster and talking about the zombies in the processing plant, Gu Yu listened quietly, nodding his head from time to time, indicating that he was listening.
When I stopped to wait for him to give his opinion, or exchange some information, he said lightly: "Got it, I'm going to change the guard." ”
"Hey, you're going to have no friends if you talk like this!" I stared in amazement at his indifferent back as he departed......
"I don't have any friends." He said without looking back.
"You wait, I'm not going to share information with you anymore." Only then did he realize that the childish ingredients in it were excessive, and when he turned his head to see the little zombie blinking his big eyes, he couldn't help but poke her forehead with his fingertips, and said fiercely: "Remember, men are all scum, all scum, tell me, zha!"
The little zombie opened his mouth and really spit out a word: "Mom? ”
Hearing this, I slipped on my feet, sat on the edge of the bed, and exclaimed, "Can you speak?!" ”
The little zombie giggled and repeated: "Mom~"
Zombies are not scary, what is scary is that zombies can talk......
I took the mobile phone on the table, clicked on the phone book, crossed over to my son and daughter-in-law at the beginning, and finally found the phone number labeled 'Aunt Nini, Aunt Nini' at the bottom.
"Your name is Nini?" I pinched the little zombie's fat face and asked, and paid attention to her reaction, and sure enough, when I heard the word Nini, her eyes were very focused, and she looked at me fixedly, as if she knew she was calling her.
Most babies around the age of one will break out, and she can walk a few steps by holding on to the railing at the head of the bed, so I don't think she will speak now, but she won't have a chance to speak in the cellar.
"You, you forgot who your mother was." I sighed with emotion, such a young child, I can't see my parents for a few months, and I am afraid they can't remember what they look like.
"Mom~" The immature children's voice has the purity of not being ashamed of the world, who can smile like her in today's people?
I don't want to say anything even to an ignorant child, she has no feeding, and the end is doomed, the difference is only that she starves to death, or is killed.
"Little one, do you want to live?" I thought about it for a long time, and suddenly smiled at her.
It is said that children's eyes are the clearest, and they can reflect the simplest and purest feelings in the world, such as dependence, joy and longing.
The little zombie Nini may not understand the meaning of death, but her 'longing' touched me at this moment, she longed to be close to people, it was too cruel to let her die alone, and she was still young, when she grew up, she would not remember eating human flesh for a long time, so in the future, she still has hope.
Gu Yu went to the courtyard to be on the last shift, Long Tao and Ah Ying were resting in the living room, they didn't talk, I'm not sure if they slept, but they won't come to this room anytime soon.
There were still more than two hours before dawn, I pulled out a knife, cut my index finger, and dripped the blood directly into Nini's mouth, and she drank it all in her mouth.
The amount of blood depends on feelings, I drank half of dried blood as an adult, and it shouldn't be enough to give it to a little doll less than a year old.
The cut wound was not deep, it had healed by dawn, Nini fell asleep after drinking my blood, she was like an ordinary person in every way, but I had no bottom in my heart, afraid that I would do something wrong with good intentions.
As soon as the sky dawned, Gu Yu told us to set off, and they left Chunjiang City, and the next destination they went to was Chunyang City, so even if we didn't meet in this nameless village, we would meet in Chunyang City, which had left me speechless and incapable of resisting.
Gu Yu and their two jeeps were parked on the side of the road outside the village, Long Tao ran over first to clear the disguise, the one he drove carried Wen Bo Ran and a large box, Gu Yu asked me to get into their car, he was the driver, Ah Ying was the co-pilot, and Nini and I occupied a spacious rear seat.
This arrangement must also be for safety reasons, to prevent it from coming and going, or to prevent me and Nini, the taste of being treated as an alien everywhere by the same kind of people in the past is chilling, it feels like pouring a whole bottle of Coke in one go, but you can't burp, and your chest hurts.
Since Ah Ying saw Nini, her eyes drifted to her from time to time, Nini changed into a clean and cute pink one-piece children's clothes, and wore a rabbit hat on her head, her white and tender face was flushed, lying in my arms and falling asleep quietly, as if the changes around her had nothing to do with her.
After nearly half an hour of driving, the village was far behind us, and there was only endless farmland on the side of the road, because the disaster broke out after the harvest season, and the freshly harvested food should be fine for the survivors to survive the winter.
Ah Ying finally couldn't hold it back, leaned over and turned her head, stared at Nini's sleeping face and asked, "What's wrong with her?" ”
I used to take care of my cousin's nephew under the age of one, so that she could go out shopping and eat with friends, or spend time with her cousin-in-law, so I was already familiar with taking care of children, so I took care of Nini's head on the other side of the arm, and gave her a little hat before I raised my eyes to look at Ah Ying:
"Sleep."
Ah Ying's expression told me that she felt very awkward about taking the initiative to talk to me, but she couldn't suppress her curiosity about Nini, Nini really didn't look like a zombie, Gu Yu They can keep her calm and objective, but Ah Ying can't do it, she is young after all, thinking of this, I can't help asking:
"How old are you?"
Ah Ying glanced at Gu Yu and said firmly: "Fourteen! ”
Gu Yu's thick palms were firmly controlling the steering wheel, his eyes were looking straight ahead, and he seemed to be concentrating on driving, but after hearing Ah Ying's words, he suddenly spoke: "Twelve years old." ”
Ah Ying looked unconvinced, and even her breathing became heavier, and she said with a little anger: "I have a young birthday, and I am fourteen years old!" ”
I quickly shut up and stopped interjecting, the adolescent little girl, the most concerned about others saying that she is young, when I was my age, it seemed that I always wanted to get rid of the control of my parents and be a free adult.
When I really left my parents, I realized how surviving it was to be disciplined and nagged, and I would rather be nagged by my mother every day than be separated from her again.
Gu Yu's iron plate used the sentence 'legal age' to make Ah Ying turn her head angrily and look out the window, looking like she had drawn a line with him.
I guess Gu Yu must have no sisters or juniors, so he doesn't understand what 'don't worry about children' means.
No matter how young a beauty is, she is also a beauty, I secretly laughed at this nerd I'm afraid that he won't even be able to make a girlfriend, just this temperament, how strange a woman can resist not dumping him?
The car was quiet, the only thing left in my ears was the roar of the engine, and I looked out the window at the endless fields, and suddenly noticed a few small white flowers fluttering on the window.
"It's snowing!" I muttered.
Suddenly, the small flowers turned into big flowers, and after a while, clusters of snowflakes surrounded and fell to the earth, which was a rare goose feather snow since the beginning of winter, Gu Yu turned on the wipers in front of the car.
Due to the high temperature, the snow melts quickly when it falls to the ground, and the road becomes wet, and the snow comes in a hurry, and it is a pleasure to enjoy such a snow scene in the open countryside, but when I think of my parents, I can't help but worry about heating in the safety zone.
The car drove forward for nearly two hours, the temperature was getting colder and lower, and the road was finally covered with heavy snow, when Gu Yu's walkie-talkie suddenly rang, and someone was calling him repeatedly.
Gu Yu pressed the walkie-talkie to respond to the other party, and he didn't avoid me, because he didn't prevent the other party from reporting the situation to him.
On the other side of the intercom was the convoy escorting the survivors of Chunjiang City back to the safe zone, I met them at the train station, when I took advantage of their fierce fight with the six-legged monster to escape, and later they returned to the underground parking lot to rescue the citizens trapped in the cocoon, and Zhou Li was also with them.
Could it be that there are two cars now, and everyone else has escorted the survivors, but I am curious, what number is dialed by the caller in the village, Gu Yu They use walkie-talkies, how can they still receive calls?
Gu Yu's expression became very serious, I listened carefully to the content of the walkie-talkie, the other party encountered an accident, was attacked by bandits halfway, they were understaffed, and there were too many civilians who needed to be protected, so they lost three team members, and civilians were also killed and injured.
The rest of the people tried their best to break through, and finally found a hot spring resort hotel 70 kilometers away from the city, the accident happened last night, but at that time, Gu Yu and the headquarters could not be contacted, and the radio signal was not restored until just now.
As the person in charge of this search and arrest operation, Gu Yu naturally couldn't leave the survivors alone, so he directly turned the steering wheel and changed the direction of travel.
The location of the Celebrity Hot Spring Resort is in the west of Chunyang City, we came from the north, Gu Yu did not choose to travel through the city in order to save time, he drove the jeep onto the country road, around the corner of the city into the country road leading to the resort.
Modern people are tired of the fast-paced urban life, and the venue for leisure and entertainment has gradually moved to the countryside outside the city.
Memories before the end of the world always inadvertently break into my mind, with infinite nostalgia and nostalgia, and such a plain and peaceful day seems to be gone forever.
The car drove into the country road, the flower beds on both sides have long withered, the weeds and the toppled fence show a depressed scene, and the European-style spire building at the end of the road looks like an ancient castle in the wilderness.
Just thinking about it, a person suddenly jumped down from the ancient locust tree on the side of the road, Gu Yu stopped the car, and the person saluted him first, and I saw that he was wearing a standard combat uniform, so I quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
