Chapter 8: Picking Up the Dead That Slipped Through the Net
ο½ο½ο½...
On the fifth day of the last days, there was finally a power outage and water outage.
The streets were even more chaotic, as if cold water met hot oil, and thunderbolts were tumbling.
Haishi is a remote third-tier city with a population of more than 6 million.
The further you go towards the city center, the more you can see all kinds of chaos.
Occasionally, you can see various guards, helping people in various neighborhoods, stopping crimes, and killing zombies.
And yetβ
There were many chaotic people and many zombies, and their heroic figures were gradually submerged.
Serial car accidents are even more common, blocking the roads that are not very wide, and many people who drive everywhere to flee have no choice but to abandon their cars and flee.
The days of water and power outages plunged the world into a second darkness.
Residential buildings became the most terrifying place at this time, and many people in disheveled clothes escaped from their homes, only to find that the streets were more dangerous, with people and zombies coming and going, and screaming one after another.
Jingle bells......
Street shops are smashed, individual or group groups are snatching various items from the store, and the sound of chaos is heard one after another.
Ning Jiuli and the three of them calmly shuttled through the crowd, occasionally helping out when passing by, and before the other party could react, they quickly pulled away and ignored anyone.
Ye Xuan is very calm, because this is the norm in the last days, and it will be more serious in the future.
During the break, she always finds a reason to sneak out quietly to collect supplies.
Whether it's food, clothing, daily necessities, or transportation, as well as gas stations and medicines, it's perfect to pluck the goose.

At this point, they avoided the main road and turned onto a side road.
Not far away, a family of three seemed to be unable to run, and the zombies behind them were getting closer and closer, and seeing that they were about to be overtaken, the man violently pushed the old woman and the young woman behind him, and fled into the distance, ignoring the desperate shouts behind him.
Ye Xuan looked at this scene indifferently, just looked at the man who ran away, and said leisurely: "The cause and effect of the world, I have made a sinful obstacle, and I will definitely pay it back." β
Ning Jiuli listened to the words of reasoning, he didn't speak, and glanced at the man.
He felt that Ye Xuan's state was too abnormal, as if she had already seen through the world.
But it's too normal, because Rao is he has seen all kinds of people and things along the way, and he has become more indifferent.
But my heart is also very heavy.
And Beichen.
Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at the man who was guarding in front of him.
Whether it is strength or endurance, or speed and physical strength, before, it was not said that it was the bottom of the team, but it was not outstanding.
However, now he is on par with his own performance when killing zombies, and even occasionally reacts faster than himself, running around for half a day without seeing a single star and a little tired.
And zombies have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, more and more in number, and they are becoming more and more indescribable, and they are rotten and broken at every turn, which is really not flattering.
Why is this changing?
He didn't have time to think about it, because the priority was to meet up with the rest of his teammates.
After the power outage, the liaison ran out of signal, and he guessed that the satellite was also wrong.
After a half-hour break, they continued on their way.
This is the meeting place where the last contact was madeβ
The safe house in the city centre is not far away, just across the city hospital.
I just hope there will be no more twists and turns on the road.
The three of them tried to avoid the zombies along the way, and after walking for another half an hour, they finally arrived at the back door of the hospital.
There is a slight difference between this and what his teammate Daxu said, the number of zombies has increased, and there are more than a dozen of them, and they are gradually surrounding them at this moment.
Zombies are now more difficult to kill, and their speed is beginning to approach that of ordinary people, and they are no longer stiff joints and slow reactions.
Ning Jiuli and Beichen opened the way in front of them on the left and right, while Ye Xuan picked up the corpses that had slipped through the net in the back.
The two men took the watermelon knives that were on the way, and with two clicks they were left with only a headless corpse, which might have been faster if it weren't for dodging their sharp black nails.
Ye Xuan raised the small whip leisurely, if it wasn't for the wrong scene, he thought he was riding horses and shepherding sheep on the grassland.
She has a lot of strength, and she harvests zombie heads every time.
After cleaning up, the two men worked together to smash the iron cable on the back door, and as soon as they opened the door, they heard a shout: "Retreat!" β
Ning Jiuli and Beichen were excited for a moment and immediately reacted.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan knew that it was their teammate, and he and Beichen ran out quickly, while Ning Jiuli waited by the door.
Turning his head to look, two figures rushed out one after the other, the person in front was bearish, and the person behind was thin and tall.
Ning Jiuli closed the door with a "bang", tied the chains, and blocked the large group of zombies behind Hulala.
There was no time to greet each other, and the three of them quickly caught up with Ye Xuan and Beichen.
With two more main forces, their journey after that was much easier.
Ning Jiuli and the tiger's back opened the way in front, thin and tall and behind the Beichen Palace, Ye Xuan was protected in the middle.
Seeing that he was not far from his destination, a small wave of zombies suddenly surrounded him, and it seemed that he should be the person from the previous serial car accident.
The two people in the back hurriedly stepped forward to help, and Ye Xuan followed leisurely behind, waving his whip from time to time.
"Help! Wait for us! β
