Chapter Seventy-Four: Burning the Zombies
Chen Yuan and Monk Chen Jinxian separated on the way back, because Chen Yuan was going to the Li Clan Martial Arts Hall to find out the news, and Chen Jinxian was going back to tell his senior brother Lu Yuan and others about the zombies found in the zombie group. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, several main streets in the Wangyuan base are full of people, ordinary vehicles have been banned from passing under the control of the base army, only the vehicles of the base military headquarters and those soldiers will be allowed to pass, but pedestrians can walk around at will, provided that you don't make trouble.
Chen Yuan walked through the crowd on the street alone and hurried towards the headquarters of the Li Clan's Martial Arts Pavilion.
Originally, he planned that if he didn't encounter anything important in the base, he wouldn't be looking for someone in the Li Clan's Martial Arts Gym, so as not to be known by the people in the base who knew his identity as a martial artist, but the current situation made him unable to care so much.
If the base was only surrounded by a large number of zombies, Chen Yuan would definitely not go to the martial arts hall to inquire about the news, because with the tall and solid city walls of the Wangyuan base, those zombies were destined not to rush in, not to mention that there were criss-crossing barbed wire and other defensive measures outside the base, and there were soldiers guarding the city walls!
However, the current situation is that there are zombies in the zombie group, and these zombies are even more powerful than those giant zombies when they attacked the Tiandu base, how can Chen Yuan not worry!
Chen Yuan didn't want to have just come to the Wangyuan base on his front foot, and he was about to flee from the Wangyuan base with everyone on his back foot.
Chen Yuan knew that if he went to the Li Pavilion Master now, he would definitely know more inside information, but he had already withdrawn from the Li Clan Martial Arts Pavilion, and it would be a bit unjustifiable to go to the Li Pavilion Master now.
Although he believed that if he went to find Pavilion Master Li, he would still tell him those important inside information, but Chen Yuan didn't want to do it, he didn't want to owe Pavilion Master Li too much favor.
Chen Yuan thought about it and felt that it was better to ask Liu Wuming and Master Liu for news, who told him to be the most familiar with Chen Yuan in the Li Martial Arts Pavilion and the most chatty.
After arriving at the Li Martial Arts Hall, Chen Yuan dialed Liu Wuming's phone and asked him to meet him in a small restaurant outside the Li Martial Arts Hall.
Chen Yuan went to the small restaurant called "Fortunately" to wait for Liu Wuming, and it was time for lunch at this time, but because of the panic in the base, there were not many guests eating in this small restaurant, and it seemed very deserted.
Chen Yuan casually ordered a few home-cooked side dishes, and after asking the waiter to serve a bottle of high-grade liquor, he didn't order anything, and the money on him was not very much, so he couldn't afford to eat too luxuriously.
Now the survivors in the base can only use gold and silver and other valuables to consume except for the food stamps issued in the base, and no new currency is generated, and the coins of the past have naturally been invalidated at the moment of the outbreak of the end times.
Liu Wuming didn't let Chen Yuan wait long, saying that he was very idle in the martial arts hall now.
Early in the morning, the news of the zombie siege came from outside the base, causing many students in the martial arts hall to have no intention of coming to the martial arts hall to train, and only a few more diligent students still insisted on training.
Liu Wuming got out of class early, he let his students train by themselves, he was rarely lazy, no, as soon as he received Chenyuan's call, he immediately walked out of the martial arts hall to meet Chenyuan.
Chen Yuan didn't wait a few minutes after ordering food in the restaurant, and saw Liu Wuming wearing the strong uniform of a martial arts hall master, and walked into the door of the small restaurant in high spirits.
"Master Liu, I'm here. When Chen Yuan saw him come in, he quickly stood up and shouted, lest he have to go to the front desk to ask the waiter.
The place where Chen Yuan sat was in a small private room on the first floor, and he could clearly see Liu Wuming walking into the hotel through the glass, but Liu Wuming couldn't see Chen Yuan sitting here because of this layer of glass. ...,
"Come, come, didn't let you wait long, Brother Chen?" Liu Wuming walked to Chenyuan's side, unceremoniously pulled out a stool and sat opposite Chenyuan, but said politely.
Speaking of which, in addition to the age difference between the two by more than ten years, there is no separation between the two, when they were in the Tiandu base, Chen Yuan and Liu Wuming began to call each other brothers and sisters after they became acquainted, Chen Yuan just couldn't change his mouth for a while and still called Liu Wuming Master Liu as before.
Chen Yuan also said unceremoniously: "No, I just ordered the dishes and you came, it can be said that you are still early, haven't you seen the dishes yet?"
As Chen Yuan spoke, he poured a full glass of liquor for Liu Wuming, he knew that Liu Wuming's amount of wine was very good, so he naturally wanted to fill it for him.
There are very few people who practice martial arts who don't drink, and the amount of alcohol is generally not bad, otherwise the people in the rivers and lakes described in the novels would not drink in large bowls and eat meat in large chunks at every turn.
"There's a lot of noise on the streets, I don't think you're so idle that you're coming to me for a drink. Liu Wuming unceremoniously asked after a toast with Chenyuan.
"Of course not, it has to be at night to invite you to drink, and I'm not a drunkard who is addicted to alcohol, so why do I come to you for a drink in the middle of the day. ”
Chen Yuan glanced at Liu Wuming and continued angrily: "Do you know the specific situation of the base now? I think the situation is very bad, I can't say that we still have to flee again." ”
Liu Wuming filled himself with a glass of wine, and after drinking the wine, he said seriously: "It's not as serious as you said, I followed Pavilion Master Li to the military camp of Wangyuan Base once, and I saw that there were many good players in the barracks, and they were very well-equipped! Even if we encountered those giant zombies we encountered at the gate of Tiandu Base, they could be easily destroyed." ”
"Then there are not many of them, does the military department of the base know that there are zombies in the zombie group outside the city?" After Chen Yuan saw Liu Wuming say this, he was still not very optimistic and continued to ask him.
Chen Yuan himself clearly knew that the zombies that appeared outside the Wangyuan Base were more powerful and difficult than the giant zombies that attacked the gate of the Tiandu Base last time.
"There are not many good players in the army, but a large number of their soldiers are equipped with powerful repeater crossbows, etc., and those zombies are definitely not the opponents of the army. ”
Liu Wuming was still very optimistic and continued: "Even you know that there are zombies in the zombie group this time, and the military department of the base must also know about it, so don't worry about it." ”
"I'm not worried about how to do it, you don't know how powerful those zombies are, I was chased and killed by one of them for a long time a few days ago!
Chen Yuan himself also drank a glass of wine, and continued a little depressedly: "I don't know if those soldiers and warriors in the base have fought against those zombies, do they know the specific strength of those zombies?"
"I don't know much about this, I have to ask Pavilion Master Li, he should know better. Liu Wuming obviously didn't know much, he just judged from his one-sided understanding of the strength of the base's army that the base was safe with the protection of their group of soldiers.
"Alas, let's not talk about that, we drink, anyway, the sky is falling and there are tall ones on top, those zombies are coming into the base, and we can use people to kill them. ”
Chen Yuan raised his glass and toasted with Liu Wuming, and the two of them ate side dishes and sent wine, which was regarded as lunch.
After eating this banquet, Chen Yuan said goodbye to Liu Wuming when he left the hotel, and he was going home.
At this time, the streets of the base were still full of chaotic crowds, but fortunately, there were also a large number of soldiers patrolling back and forth with bright broadswords, and no one dared to make trouble at such a time. ...,
Chen Yuan walked briskly to his residence, he had to go back to comfort his parents, lest they think that something big had happened in the base and worry about their safety.
Back at home, Chen Yuan just told his parents that the zombie tide that his family had fled from the Nanhua Temple to the Wangyuan base came to the outside of the base, telling them not to worry.
It's just that the base looks chaotic now, and he hopes that the two of them won't go out casually, and let him go out to do anything.
In order to make their son Chenyuan feel at ease, the two elders naturally promised not to go out at this time.
Fortunately, there are still a lot of leftover meals prepared at home, save a little, and there is no problem with eating for a day or two, but they can ask Chenyuan to go out to buy it.
The survivors on the street of the base tossed and turned for a day, but the zombies outside the base were surprisingly quiet, they came to the barbed wire outside the base and stopped moving forward together, wandering in place, and there was no zombie group hitting the barbed wire.
The night fell in the uneasiness of the people in the base, and the night ruled the land, but the bright lights in the base broke through the darkness, illuminating the inside and outside of the city walls as if it were day, and a large number of soldiers climbed the city wall with weapons on their backs to guard the safety of the base.
The survivors who tossed for a day found that the zombie group outside the base did not appear to attack the city, and their panicked hearts finally let go of a little, coupled with the fatigue caused by the tossing during the day, most of the people in the base returned to their nests early to rest.
Of course, this is also because the military department of the base has issued a ban, and the base will be closed for the night tonight, prohibiting ordinary people from continuing to wander the streets.
It is precisely because of this ban that there were no major casualties in the base this night, and it can be said that the top management of the Wangyuan base still has some leadership ability.
When the night got dark, there was a commotion in the zombie group outside the base, and then the dense barbed wire fence arranged outside the base wall was uprooted one by one by the zombies who emerged from the zombie group.
The soldiers guarding the city wall used their bows and crossbows to shoot the zombies who were destroying the barbed wire, but found that they could shoot arrows powerful enough to penetrate the human body but could not hurt the zombies in the slightest, so that they clearly knew how hard the copper skin and iron bones of these zombies were.
Naturally, the barbed wire fence outside the base was swept away by dozens or hundreds of zombies that suddenly appeared.
Losing the barbed wire fence that blocked the front of the base's walls, the zombies finally poured under the walls like a tide.
Now the soldiers guarding the city wall finally had something to do, and they shot sharp arrows with their bows and crossbows, exploding the heads of the zombies, and as a result, a layer of tall zombie corpses soon piled up under the city wall.
found that the corpses of those zombies were piled up on the wall after shooting like this, so the commander of the base ordered the soldiers to stop shooting the zombies, and sent someone to bring gasoline and other fuels to pour them underneath, and burned the corpses of those zombies under the city wall on the spot.
As a result, the sky above the Wangyuan base suddenly became brighter, because the four walls of the base were blazing with fires, reflecting the sky above the Wangyuan base in red.
However, in this way, the base is safer, and even during this period, no zombie can sneak into the base, of course, it is more likely that they did not follow the zombie group to attack the base under the control of the zombie king.
This night, many survivors living in the base were destined to be unable to sleep peacefully, and they were frightened to insomnia by the huge movement caused by the battle between the soldiers and zombies in the base.
Fortunately, after the soldiers at the base burned the zombie corpses, those living zombies did not rush forward, making them lose the target of shooting, and the war of human corpses was temporarily stopped.
The Wangyuan base finally regained its due calm when the night came, and only the sky-high fire was lonely in the sky above this human base, and it did not disperse for a long time!
