Day 2.

Four people and one dog set off again.

In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, the four of them stepped on their good clothes in the mud, and rubbed their hair to shape a chicken nest.

The dog was still bad, and Shen Shaoyu carried it on his back and covered a tarp to prevent others from realizing it.

The family stops and goes.

Hurry during the day and hide from people.

Find an abandoned house to rest at night.

In the beginning, there were teams of refugees everywhere on the road.

Their outfit did not attract the slightest attention from others, let alone be robbed.

It's not so much that they avoid people, but that others avoid them when they encounter them, and others are afraid of being robbed by them.

Most of the living dead are concentrated in the city, where there is more human activity.

Lin Wanqiao and the others went around the big towns, specially picking rural and rural roads.

Occasionally, I can meet a few, and I can handle it.

Time passes slowly.

The dog was not infected and completely regained its vitality after half a month.

But this process really frightened Lin Wanqiao and the others.

At first, its hair gradually began to fall out, and in less than three days, it fell into a hairless dog, and the canine teeth in its mouth fell off one by one, and its spirit became worse day by day.

Lin Wanqiao fed it with a needle as always, hydrated, and nourished.

Later, its body gradually changed.

The hair grew back overnight, but it was no longer the black brown it used to be, but a pure black as shiny as a layer of wax. The eyeballs also became lighter and lighter from the normal amber brown, and finally became a very rare gold, and the round pupils narrowed into a fusiform.

The teeth in the mouth also grew back, but the canine teeth grew into fangs. The four claws have also become sharp, and the paw pads are covered with barbs. Don't think about it, if you are scratched by such a claw, you will definitely shed a layer of skin.

It also has a more sensitive sense of smell, often smelling danger from several streets away, grinning without warning, baring its large fangs and roaring in a low voice.

Seeing that the dog gradually revealed his fierce appearance, Yang Yujun and the others were both distressed and afraid.

They are reluctant to kill or throw it away. But he continued to stay by his side, and he was worried that the dog would hurt his family one day.

But in the end, they decided to stay.

No matter what the dog becomes, it is a member of the Lin family.

Fortunately, the dog is still the same dog as before, but it has become stronger.

After recovering from it, it appears to have developed immunity to the living dead virus. Coupled with Shen Shaoyu's previous training, almost all the living dead they encountered on the next journey were solved by dogs.

made Lin Wanqiao and Shen Shaoyu stunned every time with a machete, watching the dog play majestic, and it seemed that they were useless.

They have encountered more of the living dead than the living.

A month later, the four homeless men finally arrived at the destination of the trip.

In a small village in the southwest of Z Province.

The village is completely abandoned, far from the town, and the roads into the village are all semi-developed mountain roads built by the villagers themselves, and the only way to enter the village, a stone bridge, has been blocked by falling stones from the mountain.

It fully meets the standards of Lin Wanqiao's family.

They took out their assault boats and crossed the river.

Enter the village.

Under the ravages of time, the entire village is full of undulating ruins.

The once-vigorous wall-creeper has long since died, and some of the dead vines are still clinging to the stone walls, and the new vines have hidden all traces of the old.

The vitality of the plants in the mountains and forests is as tenacious as ever, even if it has experienced the devastation of extreme cold and eternal night, as long as it is given a chance to breathe, it will not be a few days before the barren land will be rejuvenated.

In the two years since the end of the acid rains, the already bare mountains have been covered with lush greenery again.

The whole village was rounded, and there was not a single person alive.

In the cellar of a villager, they found a living dead man chained, heard their movements, and screamed to pounce.

Solve this trouble, find a relatively intact house, and they live here.

There are fields in the village, and the second elder has found his old job again, and he is happy to carry a hoe to the field every day.

The dog also completely released his nature, rolling in the sky all day long, drilling into the forest, Lin Wanqiao couldn't stop shouting when he broke his throat, came back covered in mud, was beaten every day, and ran the next day.

She and Shen Shaoyu set up tea sets in the yard and experienced the days of making tea around the stove and enjoying the time.

Such days have gone for more than a month.

Suddenly, one night, in her sleep, Lin Wanqiao heard the dog barking non-stop.

She got up, put on her clothes, and went to the door.

Light a candle.

The dog was standing in the doorway, barking at the night sky.

Seeing Lin Wanqiao get up, the dog kept circling around her, and his mouth let out an uneasy wail.

"Woohoo."

"What's wrong?"

Lin Wanqiao checked it, and the alarm device at the door was still the same, and no one broke in.

The dog was still around her legs, whining incessantly, extremely uneasy.

Suddenly, the candle bar she had placed on the table clattered.

Thinking that she was not stable, she hurried to help her up.

"Woohoo!" The dog barked even harder.

"What the hell is going on?" Lin Wanqiao had just finished asking, and the candle on the table toppled over again, and at the same time, she felt a slight tremor faintly coming from the soles of her feet.

In an instant, she understood the reason for the dog's restlessness.

Large earthquake!

The moment she understood, she immediately rushed into the inner room and woke up Shen Shaoyu and the second elder.

"What's wrong, what's wrong, are there any living dead?"

The second elder was woken up by Lin Wanqiao, and his first reaction in a daze was to touch the machete placed next to the pillow and prepare for battle.

This is a habit that the family develops when they are on the road.

"There's going to be an earthquake, get up!"

"Ahh The second elder instantly sobered up.

Shen Shaoyu also came over with his clothes on.

"There's going to be an earthquake?" He also heard Lin Wanqiao's words.

Lin Wanqiao nodded solemnly: "Yes, I felt a little vibration just now, the rice cake was very uneasy, and it kept screaming, it should have felt it too." Let's move quickly! ”

Another reason for choosing this home as a base is that it has a large yard and there are no other trees around, making it a very suitable location for earthquakes.

Now that the earthquake has not yet begun, they quickly packed their bags.

Fifteen minutes later, the family stood neatly in the courtyard, staring wide-eyed.

"Will there really be an earthquake?" Yang Yujun couldn't help but doubt.

At this moment, the wind is clear and the moon is bright, and the surrounding insects are singing one after another, which is peaceful, where is the scene before the disaster.

Lin Wanqiao was a little skeptical that she was delusional just now.

"Calculate the time, it's really not here yet."

There is still more than half a year before the earthquake struck in the previous life.

The dog is still very uneasy, lying next to his family, and his mouth is constantly whining.

"Trust the instincts of rice cakes." Shen Shaoyu said, "If it's not the best, what if it really is." Let's wait here for a while. ”

Lin Wanqiao also agreed, she went in and moved a few chairs out, and the family continued to sit in the courtyard chatting and waiting.
