King of Wasteland Evolution

Chapter 48
"Damn it! Is the traffic jam so serious? How can we get through?"

After driving on the highway for four hours, Chu Xuan and others had to stop the car. When they saw the situation in front of them, Chen Zhou couldn't help but complain.

The position they were in now was at the top of a slope, where they could clearly see the situation ahead. It could only be described as very bad.

The distance of several kilometers was blocked by cars, and there were zombies walking between the cars. There were also some zombies roaring in the cars. It was obvious that the place had become a mess after the apocalypse broke out. Some people couldn't even open the car doors. Before they even had time to open it, they turned into zombies or were bitten by zombies.

"We can't get through here." Chu Xuan said with his brows tightly furrowed after looking forward.

"Yeah, so many cars are stuck here, it's impossible to break through. Even if we can move those cars, we don't know how long it will be delayed." Zhou Zhengtao said solemnly.

"Then what should we do now?" Chen Zhou asked.

"We can only go back." Chu Xuan made a quick decision and said: "Go back to the previous exit of the highway, and then continue to Hanyuan City after exiting there. There is no other way."

"That's the only way." Zhou Zhengtao and others nodded.

If the expressway is not feasible, the only way to do it is not to take the expressway. Fortunately, the exit of the expressway just now is not too far from their place, and they will be able to get off the expressway in a short time.

Chu Xuan turned the car around, drove back to the exit of the expressway just now, and left the expressway not long after.

"So this is Huatian County." Zhou Zhengtao glanced at the road sign, thoughtful.

"Brother Zhou, have you been here before?" Chu Xuan asked.

"I've been here. Huatian County used to be very poor, but the government has vigorously developed it and turned it into a famous industrial county. Many factories are built here. In just ten years, Huatian County has jumped from a poor county to one of the top [-] counties in the country. Strong County."

Zhou Zhengtao's expression was slightly concentrated, and he said slowly: "The population here is very concentrated, and I think there must be a lot of zombies."

Chu Xuan was just a student before and didn't have a clear understanding of the country's economic concepts. Naturally, he didn't know much about the economic conditions of some counties.

"There are so many zombies, it's not a big threat to us at present, but the factories here are concentrated, and there are quite a few people who are likely to survive. We have to pay attention at all times." Chu Xuan said solemnly.

"Shall we rest here for the night?" Liu Menghan asked.

"Let's take a look first. If there is a suitable place, you can stop and rest for a night." Chu Xuan replied.

Although there is still a lot of space left in the car, it is still not enough for them to have a good rest. It is good to find a spacious place. After all, some places have clean water resources, and a bath will make the whole body comfortable.

As Zhou Zhengtao said, Huatian County is dominated by factories. Walking on the roads of Huatian County, you can see factories everywhere. Of course, you can also see zombies wandering everywhere.

Those zombies who approached actively when they heard the sound were all knocked out by Chu Xuan's car.

When passing by a factory named Donghui Food Factory, a figure caught their attention.

Inside the factory gate, I saw a middle-aged woman running away in a panic, with three zombies chasing behind her.

"Help! Help!"

Seeing the car driven by Chu Xuan and others, the middle-aged woman first had a look of surprise in her eyes, as if she had never expected such a car to exist, but then, she restrained the surprise in her eyes, and replaced it with a With fear and panic on his face, he ran towards Chu Xuan and the others while shouting.

Due to the relatively long distance, Chu Xuan and the others did not notice the change in the expression in the middle-aged woman's eyes.

"Let's help her! If we don't help her, she will be chased by zombies soon!" Liu Menghan said worriedly when she saw this scene.

"Yeah, she's the only one here, if we don't save her, she will definitely die." Guo Yimin also spoke.

"Chu Xuan? What are you thinking about?" Zhou Zhengtao glanced at the middle-aged woman, and then looked at Chu Xuan. He saw that Chu Xuan was silent and didn't know what Chu Xuan was thinking.

"It's because she's the only one, so it's a bit weird." Chu Xuan frowned slightly, and said, "It's been more than ten days since the doomsday erupted, how did she survive alone? And she just appeared when we passed by here, you guys Don’t you think it’s all a little weird?”

Although Chu Xuan did not notice the change in the middle-aged woman's expression, he had experienced the apocalypse once and deeply experienced the sinister things in people's hearts. Sometimes good intentions are not rewarded.

Hearing what Chu Xuan said, everyone was slightly startled. They felt that what Chu Xuan said was not unreasonable, but it was really unreasonable for them not to save such a living person in front of them.

"How about this! Let's help her get rid of the three zombies, and don't take her with me." Zhou Zhengtao suggested.

"That's right! She is alone now, so it's okay to help her. After all, we are many people. Even if she has evil intentions, she may not be able to hurt us." Zhao Xiaowu also said.

"Okay, let's help her get rid of those three zombies." Chu Xuan didn't deny their thoughts any more. He knew very well that some things must be experienced by himself before he can comprehend them.

For Zhou Zhengtao, Liu Menghan and others, they have only experienced the end of the world, and they are led by him. They have never really experienced the cruelty of the end of the world.

Therefore, no matter what he said, it didn't mean much. Even if he could drive away immediately, he still wanted to convince everyone.

It's like a smoker, no matter how much you persuade him to quit smoking, he will say that not smoking is too uncomfortable, and he can't quit even if he wants to.

This is pure bullshit.

Only when he was lying on the hospital bed with lung cancer did he realize, oh, so I can quit smoking. Quitting smoking seems not as difficult as imagined, it's just a lack of real determination.

Chu Xuan parked the car next to him, and Zhou Zhengtao immediately opened the door and rushed out with the ax handed over by Zhao Xiaowu.

"Get behind me."

Zhou Zhengtao bypassed the middle-aged woman, grasped the ax tightly and slashed at the zombie.

Click!Click!Click!
When the three axes were struck, the heads of the three zombies exploded and they all fell to the ground.

The middle-aged woman saw Zhou Zhengtao's speed in dealing with the zombies so quickly, and she had a rough judgment of Zhou Zhengtao's strength in her heart.

"Thank you, thank you!"

When Zhou Zhengtao turned around, the middle-aged woman thanked her with tears of gratitude.

"You're welcome, why are you here alone? Don't you have any other companions?" Zhou Zhengtao looked at the middle-aged woman and thought of the question Chu Xuan said before, so he asked tentatively.
