Chapter Seventy-One
I sat on the floor in the house for a long time, too lazy to stand up, and just stared into the yard. I couldn't accept the fact that I might be the only one in this strange village at this moment.
People always fail to think about other things when they are too panicked. For example, at this moment, because I was left behind, I had no time to think about why they drove away even though they thought they left me behind.
In fact, it is easy to think of it.
It was obvious that zombies had entered the village last night, and there were definitely a lot of them. This village was located closer to the road, and since there were so many zombies pouring into the village at that time, it is conceivable that
I don't know how many zombies there are outside.
So they were caught off guard and fired. Such a loud sound must have attracted more zombies. When I was squeezed into the previous alley, I could clearly hear the shots fired by the bearded men and others. The weapons in their hands
The firepower should easily lead them to the courtyard where they live.
But the entrance to the village is also a natural entrance for the walking corpses. If a group of people were preparing to evacuate temporarily in a chaotic situation, they would have to fight their way out. In this case, no one would have time to notice whether I was there or not.
Maybe Xu Shuchenfeng and the others thought I was in each other's car.
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, they all know that I have not arrived and am still in the village, but they have no time or opportunity to come find me.
If this is the case, then it would be ridiculous for me. When everyone is fighting bloody battles, I hide in other people's homes and sleep soundly, thinking that they should come to save me.
This is another misunderstanding I made about the apocalyptic world.
Relying too much on others.
Unlike Rongrong's kind of dependence, my need for help from others is too high even though I am fully capable of protecting myself.
For example, last night, if I had not held the thought that someone would come to save me anyway, but had tried to escape early on my own, then things might not have turned out like this.
If I could have been as positive as I was this morning in trying to escape last night, I wouldn't have been left alone.
My nose is getting more and more sore, and my eye sockets are a little swollen. No matter how strong I look, no matter how cruel I kill the old man who wants to feed his offspring with me, no matter how many zombies I kill, in the end I am still
I, Chen Yang, have been in school for twenty years and have been a Chinese teacher for several years. Before, I was just a little woman who would scream when she saw a mouse.
The world suddenly turned upside down, forcing me to change myself in order to survive. I took advantage of my survival instinct and expanded it to fill my weak brain and psychology.
But at this moment, the empty yard outside and the distant screams of zombies made me feel lonely and panicked. This panic started from the inside out and could drown me in a second.
I bent my legs, crawled to my knees and started sobbing uncontrollably. I was really scared. Will they come back to me? Are they still fine now?
It's okay not to cry. The more I cry, the more aggrieved I feel. I don't dare cry with the same shocking energy as before when I was imprisoned by Li Jianguo and the others. I am worried about being discovered by the zombies, so I can only bite my lips and cannot shed tears.
Crying is really the most time-consuming and labor-intensive behavior and will not help things at all, but this time I need to vent, so I can only think of this way.
I don’t know how much time passed, but when I felt my eyes hurt, footsteps suddenly came from the yard...
I suddenly came back to my senses, there are walking corpses?
Instinctively, he pulled out the knife and held it in his hand. He stood up from the ground, quickly wiped a few tears, raised his legs and was about to run towards the yard. Damn it! When I just checked, there was nothing found in the whole yard!
Just when I was about to step out of the house, the sudden appearance of a figure in front of me made me freeze in place...
A few seconds later, his brain, which was originally spinning in a daze, was immediately filled with a wave of ecstasy that surged from his chest.
Suotian stood in front of the door, looked me around and then said slowly: "Are you crying?"
I sniffed hard, my voice still had the remnants of crying, but I couldn't stop smiling: "Suotian?"
I don’t know how to describe my mood at this moment. Let me put it this way. Imagine that when you are alone in a strange city, you suddenly find that the person renting the house next door is actually the person you grew up playing with.
Such a surprise as a good friend is beyond words.
Although it was very hypocritical, I couldn't help but rushed forward and hugged Suotian fiercely.
I'm really too afraid of being alone. I can't do it alone. I can't live alone.
God is indeed merciful and will not push anyone to a desperate situation. Just like now, after I was in panic for such a period of time, He quickly sent Suotian to my side.
I hugged Suotian very tightly, and it took me a while before I was willing to let go. I stared at Suotian again and then asked aloud: "Why is it just you? Where are they?"
"Let's go first and wait for us in a safe place." Suo Tian paused for a moment before I could ask any more questions. He rarely explained first: "I was looking for you when we evacuated last night and didn't catch up with them."
After listening to Suotian's words, my heart immediately felt a lot warmer: "Then you have been looking for me all night?"
Suotian shook his head and said: "The line of sight is not clear, and you are not someone who is willing to go out and take risks at night."
"Then they're gone. Do you know where we can find them?"
"I have set the specific route before, and they all know it."
"Are we two going to meet them?"
"Okay." After Suo Tian said this, he turned around and looked at the entire yard. After a while, he turned back to look at me and asked, "We'll leave in a minute, can you?"
I waved my hand at him grandly and said, "Of course, I've told you a long time ago that I'm stronger than you think."
Now that Suotian has arrived, a surge of lofty ideals arose in my heart, sweeping all the pessimistic thoughts just now into the little dark room in my brain.
After saying that, Suotian looked at me for a long time, and the corners of his tightly pursed mouth slowly rose: "You just cried for at least an hour." I blushed... I was a little embarrassed, but then I thought about it, this
its not right!
"How did you know I cried for an hour?"
Suotian pointed to a tree beside the courtyard wall and said, "You can hear it very clearly if you sit there."
After hearing what he said, my face turned dark immediately: "You sat on this tree and listened to me cry for an hour?"
"Yeah," Suotian hummed a musical scale from his nasal cavity in response to my words.
His face was full of reason.
Not wanting to argue with him about this issue anymore, I straightened my face and asked him, "But, seriously, where will they be waiting for us? We can't walk very far on our feet."
What I said is a fact. It can be inferred from the situation on the road today that China has a large population and the way the zombies gather is relatively easy to gather into piles. This is very different from those similar foreign zombie apocalypse movies.
, most of their movies only have a few scattered ones, and it is rare to see the zombies gathered in blockbusters. This is probably related to the budget of their movies themselves, which cannot afford so many extras, but most of them
Or it's because they have a vast area and sparsely populated areas, so the walking corpses are relatively scattered.
But the situation in our country is definitely different from theirs. This can be seen just by looking at the Spring Festival travel every year.
It's just... I'm afraid there won't be such a thing as the Spring Festival in the future. Even the Spring Festival, which has been the most valued by Chinese people for so many years, no one remembers it now.
"It's about two days' journey, not too far," Suotian said.
"What?!" I asked in shock, "two days' journey?"
God, it was already difficult for us to drive forward in the car before. Now we have to walk for two days with Suotian... It will definitely be difficult this time.
After a while, I remembered the zombies in the village and asked him: "What should we do with the zombies outside? They have blocked the entrance of the village and we can't get out. Wait until they disperse?"
Suotian shook his head, pointed to the courtyard wall on the side and said: "Going out of that courtyard is a small road. Let's go around to another road to leave the village. Now a group of corpses will pass by. Even if there are not many walking corpses left, neither of us will."
We can't kill them from the village entrance."
I nodded, looked at the yard next to me and said, "Let's go now?"
Suotian glanced at me and said, "Eat something and rest for a while before leaving."
