End of the World

The bucket cannot be adjusted frequently, it is better to keep it simple, mainly because the conditions do not allow complexity.

The current city wall is sufficient, Wu Bin nodded in agreement. Seeing that the snow was falling again, there was still a lot of work to do.

Winter is good for strengthening the city walls, but not so good for the trenches. Relatively speaking, although the snow here is not too heavy, it is best to clear the snow from the trenches every once in a while.

Another issue is food. We need additional supplements. Don’t even think about crops. I probably can’t even grow them myself.

Dafeng also led Zhong Yi and Wang Yan out to do hard labor. Although the two were dissatisfied, they did not dare to resist. Dafeng often showed them his fists as big as sandbags.

He also demonstrated to the two people how to knock down the zombies with one punch. The two people did not think that their bodies were stronger than the zombies.

Ling Xueyao's treatment was much better. Meng Zihan led her to work and let her do whatever she wanted as long as she didn't make excessive demands.

Ling Xueyao deliberately avoided Wu Bin to avoid him finding an excuse to lock her up for two days.

You can't escape the fifteenth day if you try to escape the first day. On this day, Wu Bin found Meng Zihan. He Yuxin had other things to do, so he had to find her when he went out.

"What should we do with her?" Meng Zihan pointed at Ling Xueyao behind her and said this deliberately.

"Just lock it up!" Wu Bin said casually.

"I won't!" Ling Xueyao was angry. How did she provoke him again?

"Then send it to Dafeng!" Wu Bin knew that there was indeed something wrong with Laoguan.

"Why don't we take her with us? After all, she will be one of us in the future!" Meng Zihan suggested.

"Yes, I promise to be obedient!"

Ling Xueyao nodded like a chick pecking at rice and looked at Wu Bin expectantly. She also wanted to go out, even though it was a bit cold.

Wu Bin pondered for a moment and felt that there was some truth to this. According to Ling Xueyao herself, she had not gone out very often since the end of the world.

Since she is interested, let her do it. It is really good for her to go out on her own initiative. Maybe she wants to try something new.

"I agree in principle, but there is one thing: you are not a child anymore and you need to be responsible for your actions when you go out!" Wu Bin warned.

"Isn't that old? How old are you?"

I don’t know if Ling Xueyao is really stupid or what, saying such a thing.

Wu Bin rolled his eyes and didn't want to pay attention to her. If she was pretending, it only showed that this woman was quite scheming.

Sabretooth started up, and a total of four people went out. The wheels had been equipped with anti-skid chains, so moving forward was a bit difficult. The snow on the road was getting thicker and thicker, making driving more and more difficult.

Looking at the snow that was more than ten centimeters thick, Wu Bin felt a little heavy-hearted. Fortunately, he gave up the idea of ​​continuing on his journey. The further north he went, the thicker the snow would be.

What is worrying is the zombies. Although the snow slows down the zombies' movement speed, it does not freeze them to death.

If the camp is besieged by a group of zombies, it will be impossible to resist with such simple fortifications, and the accumulated snow will also slow down the convoy's movement.

In just one week, the snow has accumulated five centimeters. I hope it won't snow anymore, or at least there will only be sporadic snowflakes now.

"There's a store over there, stop the car and take a look!" Wu Bin leaned out and slapped the roof of the car hard, his hands numb from the cold.

The saber-toothed tiger stopped, and several snowman zombies came over immediately, but because they didn't exercise often, their joints were frozen and they walked even more stiffly.

"There doesn't seem to be anything wrong in the north!" Several people got off the car one after another, and Qiao Xinghua looked at the zombies.

"Yeah, it's not too cold!" Meng Zihan nodded in agreement.

"One per person, is that okay?" Wu Bin exhaled and shook his arms.

"Ah? I can't!" Ling Xueyao said timidly. No one told her that she had to kill zombies when she came out!

"You have to do it no matter how hard you try. Do you think we are here for a trip?" Wu Bin did not tolerate her and directly threw a spear at her.

"I...!" Ling Xueyao looked at Meng Zihan.

Meng Zihan shook her head and gave a helpless look. After all, this was no joke. If she objected, Wu Bin would really scold her.

"If I fail, can you protect me?" Ling Xueyao begged Wu Bin, asking Qiao Xinghua. It was impossible, Meng Zihan was right beside her!

Wu Bin has a girlfriend, but she's not here.

"Yes, protect your mother!" Wu Bin nodded.

"Hey, I'm serious!" Ling Xueyao said anxiously.

“I’m serious too!”

Qiao Xinghua and Meng Zihan laughed, and then Qiao Xinghua said seriously: "Then we will go first!"

"Ah, stop joking, the zombies are coming!" Ling Xueyao exclaimed, those dead people were too scary.

"laugh!"

Wu Bin casually stabbed out with his spear. The zombies were frozen and moved slowly, making them easy to deal with.

"It's better to rely on yourself than on others. Now it's your turn...!" Before Wu Bin could finish his words, Ling Xueyao actually ran away.

"...!"

With a slightly gloomy face, Wu Bin could only stab the zombie to death again. This was much easier than what he did before. What was she afraid of?

"You, come back!" Wu Bin shouted with a sullen face.

“Oh…!” Ling Xueyao saw that Wu Bin seemed to be angry, so she came back obediently.

"I'm sorry, I'm really scared!"

"Wu Bin, take your time. She is suffering from psychological fear. She has had nightmares for several days in a row. You don't know the situation!" Meng Zihan killed the zombies and came to help her.

"Yeah!" Ling Xueyao nodded. She often dreamed of being killed by zombies, and no resistance was of any use.

"Really? I'll forgive you for now!" Wu Bin didn't know what to say, as this was similar to what happened to Fang Xiaoyun before.

"Ah, Captain, you've forgiven me. You can't go back on your word!" Ling Xueyao almost jumped up.

Wu Bin didn't take it seriously at first and didn't say anything more. After a while, the zombies from a distance came over. They were really annoying.

After the three men made sure that there was no zombie left, they began to explore the shops. The shops in small villages and towns like this were very small.

However, before they could get close, a black shadow fell from the sky, lying on the ground with all four limbs low, its body dark red, and its tongue curled inward, also a night zombie.

Unfortunately, they usually go out less during the day, but there are exceptions. Maybe they simply don’t like the sun. Where would the sun come from on a snowy day?

Wu Bin loaded the rifle in his hand with bullets and pointed the gun at the night zombies. He didn't dare to shoot rashly as he was not sure if there were more.

"Count to three silently, then run to the car!"

“Three, two…!”

I don’t know if it was because Ling Xueyao counted too fast, but she moved first, so there was no point in counting, the other three also started moving.

"Tu Tu Tu!"

Wu Bin and Qiao Xinghua fired their rifles almost at the same time. They didn't care about anything else. As long as they could get to the saber-toothed tiger, they would be safe.

The two men's shooting skills are hard to describe. They can hit the zombies, but not their vital parts, especially when they are moving.

"Ah!" Ling Xueyao in front screamed, and a night zombie appeared on the roof of the Sabretooth Tiger, blocking its retreat. It couldn't help licking its lips, and disgusting liquid secreted from its mouth.

Its target was Meng Zihan, and it jumped directly from the roof of the car. Qiao Xinghua was not slow either, and pounced over. The two of them hugged each other and rolled on the ground for several rounds, narrowly avoiding the attack.

He was in trouble. Attacked from both sides, Wu Bin ran out of bullets. He took out a grenade and signaled to Qiao Xinghua who had just climbed up.

"Hey, I'm fine!" Meng Zihan patted the snowflakes on his body, but some of them fell into his clothes and felt a little cool.

"Bang, bang, bang!" Qiao Xinghua opened fire and Meng Zihan opened fire to delay the other night zombie.

Wu Bin pulled the ring and threw the grenade at one of the night zombies, but they didn't dodge.

Several people agreed to lie down together, and with a bang, although the snow absorbed some of the explosion energy, the night zombies were severely damaged and were knocked to the ground.

"Let's go!" Wu Bin waved to Qiao Xinghua, quickly changed the magazine, half-crouched and raised his gun to shoot at the night zombies, and Meng Zihan joined in to provide cover.

Qiao Xinghua climbed onto the Sabretooth Tiger and operated the heavy machine gun on the roof.

"Da da da!" The heavy machine gun bullets were extremely powerful, and just two or three shots tore a night zombie into pieces.

The Night Walker, who was severely injured by the grenade, was eventually killed by Wu Bin and Meng Zihan.

After the battle, several people were covered in cold sweats. It was too dangerous. They were just two night zombies. The three men had to admit that their marksmanship was not good.

In the past, it was just luck. Only Chen Guangjun and his men could knock down the zombies with one or two shots. The night zombies were too fast.

The shooting skills of several people are only suitable for dealing with ordinary zombies. Perhaps it would be easier for He Yuxin here, as she is the best among them in using a rifle.

"Here you go!" Wu Bin took the spare shotgun from the car and threw it to Ling Xueyao.

It's a pity that the shotgun has a limited range, otherwise both shots would be able to severely damage the Night Walkers. Of course, if there were special single-shot bullets, the range would be longer.

"We don't have many bullets. Let Zi Han teach you how to use them!"

"Thank you!" Ling Xueyao happily took the shotgun. She certainly preferred guns to spears.

"Be smart when you come out, otherwise no one can save you!" Qiao Xinghua couldn't help but say a few more words. Her performance just now was really too bad. It was difficult to outrun the zombies.

A few people returned to the car. There was only a dozen centimeters of snow on the ground, so the car could still move, but the resistance would be great.

The car stopped next to a store. The lesson just now was that people should not be too far away from the car, and even God cannot save you.

Some staggering figures appeared in the distance, attracted by the previous battle.

Qiao Xinghua stayed in the car while the other three got off.

"Mens first!" Ling Xueyao said fearfully as she looked at the somewhat gloomy store.

Wu Bin couldn't help but roll his eyes. If there was any danger, the battle would have been triggered.

It's just a small roadside shop and luckily, no one has visited it yet.

Most of the items sold there are packaged foods and snacks, most of which are expired. Fang Xiaoyun once said that it is not recommended to eat them unless you are extremely hungry.

In the environment of the end of the world, so many people died. In the early stages, there were many deadly germs, and the human body could not adapt so quickly. If one's body was damaged by food, the germs could easily take advantage of the opportunity and enter.

"Do we still have food?" Wu Bin glanced at the food on the shelves.

"Yes, but not enough!" Meng Zihan replied. It would be better if they could find a rice shop. If stored properly, rice and other things could be stored for two or three years without any problem.

As for the fact that rice that has been stored for a long time will produce aflatoxin and the like, who cares? As long as you don’t die from eating it at the time, it’s fine.

"It shouldn't be a problem if it's expired for a few months!" Wu Bin felt it was a pity to throw it away.

"Let's go back and consult Sister Yun!" Meng Zihan was also reluctant.

There are also some cigarettes and alcohol in the store, which are good stuff. I give them cigarettes to Wang Zhong and his friends, and everyone can have some alcohol.

The three of them emptied the small shop and went back to let everyone decide.
