Chapter 68 Hope?

squeak.

Seeing that the besiegers had escaped, the monkey jumped up happily, holding the peanut bag with both hands and bowing to Zhang Chao.

"Well, it's so human." Zhang Chao laughed, "Life and death are fate, wealth and honor are in the sky, now you have escaped from the cage, I hope you will have good luck and survive happily in the last days."

Seeing that the two had escaped, Zhang Chao turned and left the supermarket to continue on his way, but unexpectedly the monkey tossed about in the supermarket for a while and then chased after him.

squeak.

The monkey held two bags of peanuts in its left hand, and jumped in front of Zhang Chao with the leather stick in its right hand, then loosened the leather stick, grabbed a bag of peanuts in the other hand, and looked on the two bags of peanuts to see if it was there. difference, held a bag in his right hand and handed it to Zhang Chao.

Zhang Chao was shocked. Monkeys are smart, but they are so smart that they know how to find two bags of identical peanuts and then chase after them to return one bag. This is no ordinary smartness.

He bent down to take it, and the monkey jumped up happily.

The monkey seemed to be following him, and he followed him all the way, holding the leather stick in his hand like a cane and refusing to throw it away.

Zhang Chao didn’t drive them away either. Humans started eating each other. Why worry about a wild beast attacking you suddenly? Moreover, wild beasts are more direct than humans, and they don’t have too much pretense to attack you.

All the way back to the community, Han Xiao finally looked forward to Zhang Chao's safe return and came to open the door with joy on his face. He was also surprised to see a monkey following him with a leather stick.

"Brother Chao, where did the monkey come from?"

"Probably ran out of the zoo, and followed all the way back." Zhang Chao looked at a three-meter-high iron frame that had been welded in front of the building and asked, "Is everything normal at home?"

"Yeah." Han Xiao waited for the monkey to come in and locked the doorway: "The progress is pretty fast. Since I moved the electric welding machine, I decided to use iron welding, and the trench has been dug halfway."

"Boss." Seeing Zhang Chao come back, Lao Sa flipped up his welding cap and greeted Zhang Chao happily. Now he has become a real defense construction expert and the only person who can use a welding machine. .

"It's not over yet." Zhang Chao looked at the busy crowd and said.

"I haven't seen any zombies outside recently, so I can work later and go in as soon as it gets dark." Lao Sa replied.

"Chao." Seeing Zhang Chao coming out of the trench, Kang Cheng came over and said, "Chao, did you receive any text messages on your phone?"

"SMS?" Zhang Chao took out his mobile phone and looked at it. The signal was intermittent and there was no text message.

Kang Cheng took out his mobile phone and opened it, "I suddenly received a strange text message yesterday, saying that a rescue force is organizing a rescue into the city."

Zhang Chao took it and took a look. The text message was very short, and the content was: Survivors of City S, please pay attention, we are XX troops, and we are organizing a rescue operation into the city. Please protect yourself and wait for rescue.

"Has anyone else received it?" Zhang Chao also felt strange looking at the text message number. It seemed that he was connected to Beidou, but it didn't look like it was a prank.

Kang Cheng nodded and said: "So far, there are three mobile phones that have received the message, and the numbers are exactly the same, neither the mobile phone number nor the common platform number."

"Wait and see what happens, it's not sure whether it's true or not." Zhang Chao couldn't judge its authenticity. It would be a good thing if there were troops to carry out the rescue, otherwise human beings would really be extinct.

Everyone chatted about this before going to bed at night, while Han Xiao and Meng Na and some young people were teasing around the monkey. The monkey looked at everyone vigilantly and didn't have much reaction.

"Chao'er, what do you think about the text messages? Is the situation outside optimistic?" Zhang Zhian asked.

Zhang Chao shook his head and said: "The number of zombies in the vicinity has decreased, but I found that there was a mountain of corpses in the city center. There were probably tens of thousands of zombies there. I didn't look too far away. Just wait and see."

"Tens of thousands of zombies in the city center?!" Meng Na exclaimed in surprise.

Lao Sa Bu Tiao Hou Zi came over and sat down on the armrest of the sofa and said, "What's so strange, our city S can be considered a third-tier city. It seems to have a million-level permanent population, so tens of thousands are not enough. I guess Most of the zombies are scattered in places we can't get through for the time being."

"What are the zombies doing together?" Kang Cheng asked.

Everyone also looked at Zhang Chao with doubts on their faces.

Zhang Chao frowned and said, "I don't know, I just saw them piled up like a mountain. That should be the most dangerous place right now."

The matter of zombie cultivation is just speculation now, not to mention that it is useless to tell these people.

"Amassing food and building more walls is the way to survive in the last days. No matter what is going on in the last days, the main thing is to have food, drink and hide in a fortress. After that, it is time to consider long-term plans." Old Sa Da Said grinningly.

Everyone nodded upon hearing this, expressing that what they said was reasonable and that they should continue to build defenses and stockpile food.

However, everything was broken by the roar of a helicopter the next day.

Those who had eaten in the morning were refreshed and ready to start work suddenly noticed a helicopter appearing in the morning sun in the distance, gradually passing by the front of the community. The five-star logo of the army was on the plane, and a cannon was mounted below it.

Everyone stared happily at the helicopter flying by, and everyone's mobile phone rang at the same time, and everyone took it out to find that they had received a text message.

"Attention all survivors, we are conducting disaster area reconnaissance, please protect yourself, we will organize rescue operations immediately, it is best not to leave the safe hiding place without authorization, we will notify you of your destination after the establishment of a safe zone."

"Oh my God, the government is still here, and they're going to rescue us."

"The country really still remembers us and is finally coming to save us."

Everyone cheered excitedly, and some even cried. This time seeing the army helicopter, they felt that hope was in sight.

Almost everyone was in a state of excitement that was difficult to calm down, only Lao Sa didn't react too much to this and still buried himself in electric welding and instructing those who hadn't focused on repairing their defenses for a long time.

Zhang Zhian looked at the monkey squatting on the balcony enjoying the sunrise and smiled slightly, but he was not confident that rescue would really come, "Chaoer, why are you not happy at all?"

Zhang Chao poured a glass of water for his grandfather and sighed: "I don't want to say anything depressing, but the chances of being successfully rescued are well known by a reasonable person. There are not many living people in a city. How good is it, not to mention how to find survivors and rescue them in this city full of zombies, everything will not be that simple."

"I will urge everyone to continue working to prepare for survival. We have to prepare for the worst, and the power of the country is limited. If we can survive, let the country give priority to rescue those who need it most." Zhang Zhian now gradually understands Zhang Chao, The horror of the last days cannot be imagined, nor can it be passed away in a dream. This is a major disaster unprecedented in human history, and human beings may even become extinct because of this.

Zhang Chao nodded, sent his grandfather back to lie down on the sofa to rest, looked at the open balcony door, the monkey peacefully accepted the baptism of the sun, and couldn't help feeling a little envious, if only he could be as simple as the monkey.
