The next morning, at daybreak, Cheng Qianyu woke up the others to pack up and get ready to set off.

The eerie silence makes people feel uneasy, and they always feel that something is going to happen. In order to avoid any unexpected events, it is better to set off early.

As for breakfast, everyone decided to eat some bread and biscuits in the car, and then cook when they arrived at the next stop.

Shao Yan was checking the vehicle, Cheng Qianyi and Gu Jinghe were loading the sleeping bags and tents into the car, and the duo in the house put away the oil lamp and small stool and were about to walk out of the house.

The accident happened at this moment. Cheng Qianyu felt it first. Without time to speak, he pulled Wen Beining by his hand and ran out of the room. The next second, the trembling stones on the ground began to shake violently. The temple behind him collapsed in an instant. The ground surged visibly, and big bulges appeared from time to time.

Gu Jinghe, who was standing not far away, pushed Cheng Qianyi to the ground, away from where she was standing. When she came to her senses, she saw a crack of more than one meter in the ground at her feet, which was bottomless. She lost her hold on the bread in her hand and fell down. However, if Gu Jinghe had fallen in a second later, she would have fallen in instead. The next second, the crack healed and buried everything deep underground.

The tremors continued sporadically for several minutes before they completely stopped. The few people who survived the disaster were all covered in dust and looked pale.

Especially Cheng Qianyi, although she had experienced an earthquake, it was far less violent than this one. Just now, the King of Hell withdrew her invitation.

The little girl's legs were shaking and she was unable to stand up. She stared blankly at the ruins in front of her.

Under such circumstances, it seemed impossible to reach Beijing in four days. The roads were destroyed by the earthquake, and their car, which was larger than an ordinary car, could not pass through. They had no choice but to put it into the space, and the group began to migrate on foot.

Cheng Qianyi was frightened by what happened just now. She was supported by Gu Jinghe and moved forward without saying a word. No one was injured, but Wen Beining's fragile mentality collapsed again.

"It was supposed to take four days to reach Beijing. With an earthquake of this magnitude, the viaducts and highways probably no longer exist. Woohoo~ How long will it take to get there?"

Wen Beining was walking forward while complaining, when suddenly Cheng Qianyu grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back.

Everyone stopped, and Wen Beining also noticed the situation ahead. The originally flat road was no longer there. The girl's next step was a cliff more than ten meters high, and the part below was the originally connected road.

The earthquake just now split a complete piece of land into two halves, and not only that, it also raised the altitude of one of the pieces.

Wen Beining felt even more resentful. She was not bitten to death by the zombies, but was almost thrown to death. It turned out that she was the most miserable person who traveled through the book. Let her be destroyed, let her be ruined, and lie dead on the spot.

Seeing another person who was hit hard, Cheng Qianyu teased, "You two little girls, without us, would have been reincarnated by now. Instead of thanking your big legs, you are complaining here. Have I treated you unfairly?"

Wen Beining was lying on the ground looking at the extra head above her cheek. She got angry and bumped into it. Cheng Qianyu didn't expect the girl to have such a trick. He was tricked and kept crying out in pain while covering his forehead.

Seeing that his sneak attack was successful, Wen Bei's anger subsided a lot. He stood up and patted the dirt off his butt: "Let you laugh at me."

......

Several people climbed down the more than ten-meter-high drop with difficulty and continued to rush towards the highway. They still had some illusions about some things.

After more than half a day of difficult hiking, they were finally reaching the main road. Along the way, they not only had to kill zombies but also had to prevent sneak attacks from normal people, as well as those who were bitten but had not yet mutated and would drag them down with them to die, which made them physically and mentally exhausted.

There were some gains as well. Several people discovered that the more they used their supernatural powers, the more proficient they became. However, they would also overexert themselves and would be fine after a short rest.

After half a day of fighting monsters and leveling up, the abilities of several people have all been improved to a higher level. Now they can kill a zombie with a single move, instead of simply causing damage.

Standing at the highway exit, Cheng Qianyu released the off-road vehicle, and several people immediately climbed up to rest. Shao Yan did not delay either. He took a breath, stepped on the accelerator, and headed straight for the highway.

Very good, they walked a few hundred meters away and turned around and came back. The bridge and highway had completely collapsed, and even some cars fell down with them. They gave up this time, and had to drive around and walk where they could. If that didn't work, they would clear the way themselves.

Following the map, the car drove into the original city. However, after an earthquake, both the people and the zombies were reduced a lot. The survivors who escaped stood on the ruins and watched Cheng Qianyu and his car passing by, with envy, jealousy, or numbness in their eyes. However, no one dared to go forward rashly, probably because they knew that the car in the end times would not stop for anyone, and the fate waiting for them was death.

The car passed through the city unimpeded. As it drove along the small roads, Wen Beining sighed, "It's only the second day of the apocalypse, and there are mutations and earthquakes. Are humans really going to become extinct?"

"It's possible that the earthquake wasn't nationwide. We're probably at the epicenter. You see, the further north you go, the less severe the situation is, isn't it?"

After hearing what Cheng Qianyu said, Wen Beining turned to look outside the window. It had been more than an hour since they started driving, and the road conditions were still the same, and the housing conditions were much better than where they came from.

"That's really bad luck. We ran into the epicenter."

"If one survives, there will be future fortunes."

Wen Beining was speechless and smiled fakely: As long as you are happy, I would never trust you.

They walked to another bridge. The water was rushing under the bridge and the bridge deck had been damaged, so vehicles could not pass normally. Cheng Qianyu put away the car and took out the rope, ready to take a few people across on foot.

After setting up the simple rope, Shao Yan couldn't wait to go forward and try it out. As soon as he stepped on the rope, he felt something rushing over. Obviously everyone felt it. The moment Cheng Qianyu pulled Shao Yan down, a pitch-black thing jumped onto the rope and began to move quickly to the other side of the river.

If Shao Yan hadn't been pulled down, he would be swimming in the river now.

When they looked closely, they found that the pitch-black thing was actually an adult male. His clothes were tattered and his body was covered with blood and dirt. His face was full of fear, as if he was avoiding something.

The man's first words were only spoken when they reached the other side: Run, they are coming.

"They? What?" However, the few of them did not delay and immediately climbed up the ropes and climbed over.

When they reached the other side, the dark-skinned man had already disappeared.
