Chapter 58
The rain continued to fall, and as time went on, the light rain gradually turned into a more intense moderate rain, and even the rain was mixed with ice and snow! The temperature dropped rapidly, and the temperature was already below zero as evening approached.
The convoy also stopped at this time, and then Wang Yi's voice came from the walkie-talkie, "Attention of all units, because it is about to be close to the county, considering that there are too many mutant beasts in the county, and in order to avoid encounters with them at night, our convoy will be stationed in place to rest.......;
Feng Yan ignored the chatter in the intercom, and glanced at the odometer on the LCD screen with pain, he found that he had only walked less than fifty kilometers in a whole day!
"It's a long journey!" sighed helplessly, and Feng Yan directly retracted his thoughts.
Then he found an umbrella, got out of the car and called out to the three cars behind him to close the formation, and then gathered everyone together.
There are also melodious singing voices coming out from time to time in the pink SUV, which is even more clear in the cold and rainy night shrouded in the dark night, and also brings a trace of comfort to their hearts.
As for Wang Xi, who was curled up in the co-pilot, she was more powerful - as long as Feng Yan was there, she felt that it was home.
"Guys, we're going to spend the night here now, do you have anything to say?" he asked with a frown, looking at the slightly trembling bodies of several girls.
"Brother Yan, you won't be afraid of the dark, right? ”
As soon as Song Ziyou's words came out, it immediately caused others to laugh, after all, there was really no one in the team who dared to make fun of Feng Yan, maybe Wang Xi could in private.
Standing under the cover of the umbrella, Feng Yan also smiled and said, "I'm not afraid of the dark, but you fat man may not be able to protect me." ”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere was immediately revealed, so Feng Yan continued to exert his instinct to pour cold water, and he continued to speak quietly, "But we don't know where we are now, and no one dares to guarantee that there will be mutant beasts to surround us in the middle of the night, and to be honest, I don't even think we can rest in peace tonight." ”
At this time, Guan Yue said, only to see her face solemn and said, "We are indeed not familiar with this area, and if we want to survive in the last days, we must be vigilant; ”
Glancing at the team members whose faces had become solemn, Feng Yan snorted at them one by one, and said, "Do you have anything to add to Guan Yue's proposal, or do you have any good opinions about this escape trip?"
People have a kind of inertia, that is, they habitually rely on the people who usually show them the way, and they may be accustomed to Guan Yue's usual responsibility for making suggestions, maybe they really can't think of anything worth adding, and they are silent one by one at the moment.
A hint of disappointment flashed in his heart, and when he was about to speak, Han Lu preemptively spoke.
"We also need to be careful of the hungry survivors, who have enough to eat for the first day, but as the temperature drops, their daily food consumption increases, and if necessary, we should use more frequent meals and less frequent meals to avoid being remembered by other survivors. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised, the most important thing was that the three sisters usually had a very low sense of existence, and secondly, they never thought that Han Lu, who was usually delicate, would say such old-fashioned words at this moment.
"Han Lu is right, as the saying goes: wealth is not exposed. In the last days, food or something is the greatest possession, I agree with Guan Yue and Han Lu's statement, and carry it out, do you have any opinions?" Feng Yan's eyes flashed with essence, and his tone was decisive.
Seeing that everyone fell silent again, Feng Yan took a deep breath and spoke again, "Since you don't have any opinions, then I'll announce the order of the vigil, the first group of fat men and Xiao Yao, the second group of me and Wang Xi, the third group of Guan Yue and Xiang Yang, the fourth group of Zhou Qiushui and Han Shuang, and the fifth group of Han Lu and Han Yu. ”
"The vigil lasts from nine o'clock in the evening to five o'clock tomorrow morning, a total of eight hours, and we are ten people in groups of two, each of whom keeps vigil for two hours, and if there is no objection, until we arrive at the Wencheng Military District, we use this order. ”
In fact, they knew very well that the first vigil and the last vigil could rest all the time in front, which was undoubtedly much better than others taking a break and getting up again to keep vigil, but the two groups arranged by Feng Yan were all relatively weak people in the team, so naturally no one refuted such an arrangement.
The order of the vigil was thus determined, and then Feng Yan took another look at the gradually decreasing rain, and he instructed the team to go to the woods not far away to find some firewood, and then with the assistance of Han Lu's fire-based ability, everyone lit a bonfire in the clearing.
The flickering flames illuminated the surrounding scenery, and the orange flames gave a sense of security to the hearts of the people in the night, and the crackling sound of the fire dispelled the fear in the hearts of the people from time to time.
Unconsciously, more and more people leaned towards Feng Yan's side, and finally the fire was ten meters away.
"I don't know when such a day will come to an end. Looking at the dried meat with only half of the meat in his hand, Xiao Yao sighed helplessly.
In this wilderness, they are almost isolated from the world, which means that how far this huge team can go is completely dependent on their own creation.
"I also want to have a sheltered home, but how can it be possible in this chaotic world?" Han Shuang whispered, holding her leg tightly for fear, and an assault rifle was placed on the side where she could reach it at any time.
The night was slightly dull, and occasionally a cold wind blew, stinging the nerves of people in the last days who were extremely tense.
Grunt......
I don't know who was the first to make the grunt, and the large number of refugees stared at the jerky in the hands of their small team, their eyes lit up.
For hungry people, as long as they can eat a full meal, they are already very happy, but for the old, weak, sick and disabled, eating one meal a day is a luxury;
In fact, everyone knows that in the last days, as long as they hunt with their lives, they can eat a full meal, but the disability rate is too high, and the disabled team of nearly 300 people in the team is caused by hunting mutant beasts.
"Food is precious, so once you take it out, you eat it immediately. Feng Yan looked at the people around him with green light and felt that the situation was not good, and immediately urged the two girls.
But as soon as he finished speaking, a little girl appeared in front of him.
She was only five or six years old, her immature little face was black and gray, completely submerging her original complexion; her little hands were very red and swollen, and even a large number of chilblains, and people who saw it couldn't bear to turn their heads; her big bright eyes, like jade, shook a little tear, and looked directly at Feng Yan, to be precise, at the dried meat on his hands, and never moved her eyes.
Feng Yan frowned, it is not surprising that such a child appears here, after all, there are many children in the old, weak, sick and disabled team of the team who have lost their parents for various reasons, but they can live until now, whether it is the old man or the child, they all know a truth, don't covet other people's food.
That's one of the roots of someone else's life!
Feng Yan stood up suddenly, and he forced himself to harden his heart. He sympathized with the little girl, but he sympathized with himself even more, and if he distributed food, even if it was just a little, there would be one and two! It would not be long before his team would be crowded with beggars at every meal, and what would happen to the livelihood of his team?
Again, instead of correcting mistakes, it is better to avoid making mistakes!
The little girl didn't leave, her eyes glued to his jerky, motionless, not even blinking!
Feng Yan let out a breath slowly, hesitating whether he should start driving people away......
Xiao Yao moved.
She silently handed the uneaten jerky in her hand to the little girl's hand, and then Song Ziyou saw Xiao Yao's movements, and reluctantly glanced at the jerky in her hand, and handed it over with a heart.
The little girl seemed to be a little unable to believe her eyes, she clutched two and a half pieces of jerky with one hand, wiped her eyes vigorously with the other, and swallowed the two pieces of jerky in three or two bites after a while.
Looking at her choked red face, Xiao Yao gently stroked her back with his hand, picked up the kettle and handed it to her.
But the little girl didn't take the kettle, she licked the dried meat residue in her hand carefully, and then shook her bright big eyes Feng Yan's team glanced at everyone, and then quickly left, returning to the bus she was on.
Feng Yan didn't know what it was like in his heart, and he kept thinking about what to do next, but the hungry crowd stopped doing it......
People with thin yellow faces and green eyes flocked to the team's side, complaining about their suffering, and their black, pulpy hands reached out to the team, begging for food.
The huge crowd looked crazy, squeezed Feng Yan away, and surrounded the members of the team, especially Xiao Yao and Song Ziyou, who had handed over the food; Feng Yan knew that although these hungry people were still just begging for food, it wouldn't be long before they dared to raise their arms and snatch their food directly!
But what can be done then? Is it possible to cripple them all in order to establish prestige?
To be honest, Feng Yan really dared to do this, after all, the people who have survived until now, whether adults or children, have stepped on other people's bones, and they are not worthy of sympathy and pity.
But they are also here to live, and they can kill people for food, so what's wrong with them doing that? Or if they do so, what is the difference between themselves and the dog officer who has always looked down on them, and he can guarantee that if he does this, the whole team will be upset and even fall apart because of what he did!
It was already late in the night, and the blackened crowd blocked out the fire, and there was darkness all around.
But even so, Feng Yan could still feel that the profound gaze that those supernatural people cast here was a little puzzled and even disdainful.
He sighed dejectedly and strolled out of the group, hoping that the team would be a little more enlightened and less food......
On National Highway 404, it is densely packed with human beings, and when it came, it was close to 2,000 people, and even if a group died due to an accident today, there were still more than 1,000 people, and from a distance, it looked like a nest of ants.
If it was before the end of the world, so many humans were stationed on the ground, and there would be more or less garbage left on the ground, but now let alone garbage, even half of the weeds on both sides of the road have been pulled out, and some disabled people are so hungry that they even start to boil the leather they are wearing.
In such a group of fleeing teams, in addition to a large part of the ragged clothes, men, women, the elderly, children, and occasionally you can see a few young girls, holding their pets, but they are stared at by the people around them, and the eyes are like eating the pet cats and dogs in the girl's arms.
Evolution is only a high probability event, just like the awakening ability; theoretically, the awakening rate is 100%, but there are always reasons that make a very small number of creatures unable to evolve; and the genes of pet cats and dogs have greatly deviated from the genetic sequence of their ancestors because of human intervention; so the probability of evolution of pets is lower.
