Volume 1: Steady Farewell Chapter 31 Arrive at the destination
Lulu leads to a driving school.
In this small city, it can be described as a veritable leader in the industry. Since its establishment, the school has produced countless excellent drivers for the society.
There have always been rumors in the outside world that it is said that the students who go out from here, if they want to fail the exam, it is even more difficult than taking the second subject with their eyes closed.
And today, naturally, no one will bother to get that crucial little book. So all its former glory was burned, and it became the fuel for the flames that were burning in the hall.
………
"Shall we settle down here in the future?"
A bonfire burned in the empty hall, and Old Man Kong asked vaguely as he stuffed food into his mouth.
The kid's mind was a little elusive, so he felt he needed to ask more clearly.
When the others who were stunned heard this, they also took their attention away from the food in their hands and looked at the young man who was sitting on the stairs at this time, and had become their backbone.
The look in his eyes carried a great deal of hope, as if he was expecting the man's answer.
"Well, I'm not leaving." Wei Lai confirmed.
In fact, he was able to bring these people here safely, and he was also relieved in his heart. In addition to the fact that he did not live up to Old Man Kong's trust, there was even a little more inexplicable sense of accomplishment.
"That's good, that's good!"
Old man Kong stuffed the last bit of stuff into his mouth and nodded his head to ease his mind.
And listening to Wei Lai's affirmative tone, the nervous emotions in everyone's hearts finally calmed down. One by one, they lowered their heads again and focused on eating the little food left in their hands.
Just eating, there was a slight sobbing sound coming from somewhere in the empty hall. Although the voice was rigidly controlled by its owner, it quickly infected everyone.
"Why are you crying when you step on a horse?" Old man Kong wrinkled his nose and scolded with red eyes.
Of course he knew what these people were crying for.
After all, this is a desperate situation that I have personally experienced, if it weren't for the appearance of that young man, I would have to be trapped and killed in Yushan Village. At that time, I am afraid that I will not even be able to achieve a painful liberation.
And now, although they are still in danger, after all, they have found a relatively safe place to stay, and they already have a strong protector in front of them, how can this not make them feel tears of joy.
Thinking of these... Even Old Man Kong's own eyes were already a little red, but the slight wetness was suffocated by him.
"You..."
Old man Kong opened his mouth and wanted to say something more, but Wei Lai, who was sitting on the steps, reached out and pulled his arm, signaling him not to stop the catharsis of the villagers.
Then I saw him stand up with his neck dangling, clear his throat in the tearful eyes of everyone, and said, "Everyone is tired today, so rest early after eating." Starting tomorrow, we're going to be completely busy. ”
After that, he turned his back to everyone: "If you want to cry, cry!" ”
As he stepped up the steps, the sobbing in the room first stopped suddenly, and then as if he had been given permission, it was no longer suppressed, and the tone of his voice instantly raised, and many people cried directly.
For the rest of the night, the crying of joy or fear continued...
Early the next morning,
As the sun rose, everyone didn't know if they hadn't slept all night or what, so they gathered downstairs early and waited for Wei Lai to appear. At this time, they wanted to know what Wei Lai meant by saying that he was busy last night.
They even hope that they will have something to do, so that they can quickly get rid of their fears from their daily fears.
It didn't take long...
Wei Lai's figure finally appeared from the staircase. And behind him were not only Gardenia and Li Wu, but also the old man Kong, who was the head of a village and the former backbone of the villagers.
Looking at the people who had been waiting downstairs for a long time, Wei Lai stretched his neck and pouted, signaling Old Man Kong to stand up and speak.
Old man Kong didn't shirk, and walked to the front of the crowd with a cigarette in his mouth, "Little Wu, you take ten people to search this courtyard carefully and pick out the things that can be used." ”
This old man has been a village official all his life, and he is naturally handy in arranging tasks. I saw him put one hand behind his back, and the other hand kept gesturing, looking full of style.
"Baoshan and Datong, you take the rest of the people outside, push all the broken things on the doorway into the ground, and make way for it."
There were a total of thirty or forty people in total, but the old man Kong seemed to be commanding thousands of troops and horses, and he looked very high-spirited.
And what he said was naturally the result of the discussion between him and Wei Lai last night. One of the most important tasks is to clear the doors of cars that have crashed into each other and blocked traffic. This is to lay the groundwork for possible re-migration in the future.
As for Wei Lai?
He was going to take a few other people to the town to look for supplies. There are only five tentative members of the team, and in addition to the three of them, there are Shi and Kong Yue, who are newly favored by him.
Of course... What the five of them could find was certainly a drop in the bucket for the consumption of forty. But after all, this was only the first day they had just arrived in Guquan Town, so it was better to be cautious.
Moreover, they only went out today to investigate the situation in the town, and did not make searching for things the first priority. In case there is really a big guy hiding in it that wants people's lives, it's easy to run away if there are fewer people, right?
"Did you hear it all?"
Old Man Kong's voice suddenly raised. After seeing the crowd nodding, his arm waved down heavily, "Then let's go!" ”
With his order, a group of more than 30 people poured out of the gate at once.
But after getting on the small bridge outside the door, most of them did not continue to walk. Instead, they dispersed on the spot, rushing in groups of three or five for the scrapped cars that crashed together and the parts fell to the ground.
They work together, pick up parts, push carts, very efficient, and quickly clean up the neighborhood.
In the crowd... Wei Lai and the others did not say hello or stop, they just separated from these people and continued to march towards the town......
After walking a distance...
As soon as he stepped into the edge of the town, Wei Lai drew his war knife in advance. Slightly tilted his head and said, "I'll take the lead, Gardenia." You three are in the middle, hurry up! ”
"Good!"
The three Li Wu who followed him glanced at each other, and then quickly set up their formation, without saying anything else, and seemed very obedient.
Among the three of them, in addition to Li Wu, Shi and Kong Yue also held a large shovel in their hands. It's just that the edge of the shovel has long been polished very sharp, and it doesn't look much worse than the mountain opening knife in Li Wu's hand.
Speaking of which, there is no way to do it, after all, it was a harmonious society before, where is it so easy to find a guy to take advantage of?
"Let's make do with it first, and then find a suitable one for them when I have the chance." Wei Lai thought to himself, and then withdrew his gaze from the shovel.
Nothing to say all the way...
They moved forward slowly for more than ten minutes, until they had already penetrated a distance into the town, and Wei Lai, who noticed that something was wrong, stopped with a solemn expression.
"What's wrong?" Li Wu, who was behind him, asked after glancing left and right.
Wei Lai's eyes kept scanning the surroundings, and he replied with a puzzled expression: "That's not right! There aren't many people in this town, but it can't be without a zombie, right? ”
That's right...
All they saw along the way was empty, not to mention zombies, even Mao didn't find a single one, which is really unreasonable.
"Isn't it good to have nothing? Maybe they're going out in groups? Li Wu didn't have a proper reply.
"." Wei Lai frowned and scolded.
Ever since he stepped into the town, he had not felt very comfortable in his heart. It felt like there was a dangerous creature watching him in the shadows all the time. And the deeper you go into town, the stronger this feeling becomes.
"I don't feel good here, everyone be careful, don't get too far away."
Wei Lai had a rare nervous look on his face, and even his voice was very low. In his hand, the sword was clenched, and there was no intention of relaxing.
After all, this place is too close to the safety point he chose, and if there is really any danger inside, it is better to find it early and solve it as soon as possible.
Uh-huh!
After sensing that his mood was wrong, Li Wu and the others nodded frantically and followed closely behind him...
