Chapter 5 5.

In order not to starve to death on the road, they adjusted their route from simply avoiding crowds to passing through places where there were people.This increased the risk factor, but it was a last resort.

However, most of the stores they passed by were either emptied or filled with zombies, and the hearts of the three of them were very heavy.

Fortunately, it is summer now, and the weather is hot, which is more beneficial to human beings.Although zombies used to be humans, there seems to be some kind of change in their bodies. They can feel objects emitting heat within a few feet of them. The high surface temperature during the day can effectively blur their perception.

Su Muqiu raised his fingers: "Furthermore, according to my observations, although these zombies are similar to walking corpses, the speed of the corpse's stiffness is greatly delayed. However, the high temperature in summer makes the flesh decay faster. Remember the zombie we saw yesterday? It almost has a skeleton left, most of the flesh and blood are rotten, only the bones can't move, so it can't move there. Third, it may be the remnants of the biological clock in life. Most zombies have a large range of activities during the day and circle around at night , but the zombies are actually more active at night than during the day..."

Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng listened carefully to Su Muqiu's summary. The former suddenly interrupted him and pointed to a signboard outside the window: "There is a supermarket [-] meters ahead and turn right, should you go and see it?"

Su Muqiu nodded and drove around.

The supermarket was not particularly big, it was about the size of two playgrounds from a distance, but the zombies inside were really dense, probably some survivors wanted to collect supplies, and unfortunately ended up here.

Seeing this situation, the two immediately had a disagreement.Su Muqiu thought that he should not take the risk if he was not sure enough, but Ye Xiu objected, the reason was simple: "The following route is far away from the urban area, at least I won't be able to find a supply place for a day──but I have run out of cigarettes."

Su Muqiu twitched the corner of his mouth.

Ye Xiu was addicted to cigarettes, and he ran out of his last cigarette a long time ago. Of course, it was impossible to quit after only a few days. Right now was the most painful moment, and he was so annoyed to death.For safety reasons, they huddled in the car for the night these days. Even if the back of the seat was slightly flattened, it was still not comfortable, not to mention Ye Xiu was tossing and turning in depression. Hearing Ye Xiu's tossing, he couldn't help but grabbed him and beat him several times in the middle of the night.

"Ye Xiu, the teacher said that smoking is not good and will shorten your life." Su Mucheng in the back seat poked Ye Xiu's upper arm.

"Forgive me, it's more painful for me not to smoke than to die." Ye Xiu said bitterly.

His exaggerated bitterness made Su Mucheng laugh, and the little girl laughed briskly, but the laughter stopped after a while, and she hugged her legs and curled up on the edge of the seat.

"Mucheng, if I see a biscuit when I'm looking for cigarettes, I promise to get it for you by the way. Please help me and ask your brother to be more accommodating." Ye Xiu tried to persuade her.

Su Mucheng's eyes lit up, but she wrinkled her face and shook her head lightly: "It's too dangerous, don't go. There will definitely be places where there will be smoke."

Saying so, she held the backpack tightly against her stomach, and took small bites of the compressed biscuits that tasted like wax.

The two adults exchanged glances, knowing that the trip was a must.

The heat and hunger, they adults can bear it, but the little girl who is still growing up can't.Su Mucheng fainted once yesterday and didn't wake up for a long time, scaring the two of them at a loss, but she woke up and said that she had heat stroke, and she just drove the window to blow the air and rest, so that they don't have to worry, Su Muqiu saw that The younger sister was undernourished and slightly dehydrated, but she didn't say it clearly, and just discussed it with Ye Xiu in private for a long time.

Some real food has to be added, even canned pickles.Otherwise, sooner or later they will not be able to survive.

Fighting zombies is not like a game, there is a blood bar on the side, as long as the HP has not returned to zero, you can continue to fight. The real situation is that once you are caught out of the wound, you may be infected.It was rare for Ye Xiu to seriously ask the siblings not to get out of the car, and let Su Muqiu stay in the car and take care of it to prevent more zombies from gathering.

After he explained a few words, he got out of the car with a blunt mad dog knife, walked a few steps, and knocked on the window again.

"Why? Didn't you take anything?"

"I didn't say anything. Three to ten minutes. If I don't come out, don't wait. Take your account card and go directly to City B to find a person named Ye Qiu."

The sun was glaring overhead, and the tin car with minimum air conditioning was stuffy like an oven. Su Muqiu blinked away the sweat that fell into his eyes, and looked at Ye Xiu.He leaned against the car window, tilted his head and smiled, his smile was relaxed and freehand, as if the three of them were traveling together, and they were asking the Su brothers and sisters what cold drinks they wanted.

"Ye Qiu's name is called hundreds of times. Who knows which Ye Qiu you're looking for." Su Muqiu wiped off his sweat and held the steering wheel, "If you don't come out in an hour, go by yourself City meeting."

"Okay." Ye Xiu waved his hand and went.

There was a disgusting stench of corruption in the supermarket, and Ye Xiu almost passed out as soon as he approached the door.

There were too many zombies inside, pieces of rotten meat peeled off, the supposedly clean floor of the supermarket was covered with a layer of rotten meat paste, and the slippery and soft feel of the thick-soled military boots made Ye Xiu's scalp tingle.

But it's good news at the same time, implying that most of the zombies inside have limited mobility.He knocked on the iron frame by the door with the handle of the knife and made a loud sound, then turned around and turned aside to hide.

The sound attracted the attention of the zombies, and they rushed forward with unimaginable movement power, unconsciously grabbing the iron frame.Ye Xiu was guerrilla around, making noises from time to time, patiently and slowly packed up from the outside, and killed most of the zombies quietly in a short while.

But the air in the supermarket is not well ventilated, and being stuffed with this pile of zombies, all he can smell at the tip of his nose is a stench. Even though Ye Xiu has been very careful to restrain his breathing frequency and avoid inhaling too much bad smell, it is a pity that after a few ten minutes, he still has a keen sense of smell. I found myself having symptoms of dizziness and loss of strength.

He was planning to go outside to rest for a while before coming back, but he was distracted and accidentally knocked over the object, which directly attracted several zombies nearby, and several festering paws dripping with thick yellow corpse water swept towards him, Ye Xiu didn't care Others, quickly leaned forward and rolled over to stagger.He didn't get up, he clenched the knife and swung it with his arm, and cut it on the zombie's knee. The zombies suddenly fell into a ball like bowling pins hit, and hit the freezer behind Ye Xiu.

After being hit like this, the tall freezer shook and fell down with a "bump", the glass shattered all over the floor, and behind the freezer was a rest room for employees!The door panel has been knocked out of shape, and human limbs are scattered in the dark rest room. A zombie in a bright yellow employee uniform was attracted by the sound, turned his head and walked out slowly...

However, Ye Xiu, who was almost crushed by the falling zombies, didn't notice it. He was half-sitting on the ground struggling to bear the weight on his head, and took the opportunity to remove the joints of the zombies when he suddenly felt something Approaching, he reacted very quickly with the knife and stabbed backhand, as if eyes had grown in the back, he stabbed accurately into the heart.

If it was on the battlefield, he would have won this time, but the zombie's weakness is not the heart. Ye Xiu just blocked the zombie for a few seconds, took the opportunity to open the distance, turned around and was about to make up the knife, and then looked at the newly added zombie , but was holding the knife, suddenly in a trance.

At this moment of stagnation, attracted by the loud sound of the freezer falling, all the zombies in the supermarket rushed over, knocking Ye Xiu to the ground in the blink of an eye.

Ye Xiu, who was suppressed, burst into his upper body suddenly, and sent a knife directly between the ribs of the zombie stacked on his back. With all his strength, he threw the zombie weighing far more than seventy to eighty catties away. He seized the opportunity to put away his right hand The legs were about to rush forward to get out of trouble, but the left thigh, which was a little slower, was grabbed by several zombies.Ye Xiu barely kicked one, when a fistful of sticky and smelly water suddenly dripped on his forehead, Ye Xiu turned the blade over, using the reflection of the broken glass to see a smaller zombie crawling on top of the other On the zombie's body, there was a wide open mouth above Ye Xiu's head, dripping with saliva.

Ye Xiu clenched his fist and swung it straight up. A few zombies were knocked away, but more zombies took the opportunity to surround him. A few claws with thick bones exposed pressed down on the back of his neck, and Ye Xiu's lower jaw slammed He was on the ground, and he heard the roar of a zombie breaking through a bellows at the position very close to the neck behind his ear!

Ye Xiu's heart was beating wildly, and the first thing that came to his mind was not what to do if he turned into a zombie. He struggled to raise his eyes, and looked out of the store from the gaps between the layers of items and the shelves—there was nothing there.

──For more than an hour, he did not come out.

Su Muqiu obeyed the agreement between them and left.

At this moment, Ye Xiu realized that he had never doubted Su Muqiu.He knew that Su Muqiu would go, and even at the risk, he would send his will and the material he brought with his life to City B and hand it over to Ye Qiu.

So what he can do now is to remove as many obstacles as possible for the surviving humans.

While confirming that the Su family brothers and sisters left safely, Ye Xiu changed his eyes slightly, even if they died together, he would bring a few more zombies to hell together.He recklessly propped his hands on the glass shards all over the floor, his arms were trembling, and he actually supported the weight of dozens of zombies by himself, fighting for space for himself. The smell of fresh blood made the zombies even more agitated, and Ye Xiu turned his head to hide. Opening a claw, twisting his body and swiping the knife, he violently chopped off the heads of several zombies.

He was doused with black and red blood, and with a twist of his wrist, he pierced a zombie again, and in the dead corner of his sight, a certain zombie that was pressed down by others of the same kind had already been pushed away by Ye Xiu smashing half of its head. , at this moment, he actually opened his mouth to his open neck...

Suddenly, something whizzed past Ye Xiu's cheek, and hit the zombie's head precisely, knocking the mouth that was about to close and bite off.Ye Xiu was stunned, watching the stones about the size of a child's fist rolling to the side, and there were several cracking sounds one after another, each of which precisely hit the zombie pressing behind Ye Xiu.

He was still foolishly confused in his heart, but when he heard a familiar voice shouting "Hurry up!", his body took a step ahead of his reason, he stretched out his hand and grabbed an iron rod across his shoulder, and then he slammed it hard , This knocked over several zombies whose center of gravity had been missed.Ye Xiu threw away the iron rod and ran a few steps. The faintly twitching left leg muscles hurt, and he staggered suddenly. A warm and strong arm supported him. Su Muqiu supported most of Ye Xiu's weight, and led him towards the He ran outside and threw the last stone in his hand far away, and smashed a side of the freezer glass to make a loud noise. Some of the zombies immediately turned around, which relieved the pressure on the two of them to escape a lot.

Ye Xiu was run by Su Muqiu, and the zombies behind him chased them out of the supermarket. Seeing that they would be caught up sooner or later, a small Honda drove up, and the people inside shouted to them: "Brother! Ye Xiu!"

The driver's seat turned out to be Su Mucheng!

She was not short among her peers, but when she was placed in the driver's seat, it was difficult for her to see the outside scene clearly, let alone step on the brake or accelerator.Su Muqiu actually threw the car to a 12-year-old girl to drive. Is this considered bold and cautious, or is she out of her mind?

Fortunately, Su Mucheng only took over for a while. Seeing Su Muqiu running with Ye Xiu, she immediately pushed open the driver's door, and quickly climbed to the back seat to open the door as well.

Su Muqiu yelled "Good job", threw Ye Xiu into the back seat, got into the driver's seat, stepped on the accelerator before the door could be closed, and let the car rush out like a beast .

At this time, most of the zombies wandering around in the neighborhood gathered here, knowing that stopping at this moment is waiting to die, Su Muqiu took advantage of the zombies not yet fully gathered, and decisively picked the weakest direction to drive over. greatly improved.

He drove very hard, the car bumped violently, the things in the trunk collided left and right, and the little ones in the back seat grabbed each other tightly, and it was impossible to tell who was pulling who so as not to roll out of the car or be hit altogether fainted.

Su Muqiu was concentrating on racing, and just like that, he still didn't forget to lower the car window. He pulled out a large piece of bright red cloth from somewhere and threw it out. Ye Xiu's eyes saw that piece of bright red drifting across the blue sky, which was very inexplicable.

"Su, Su..." The car jolted violently, Ye Xiu almost bit his tongue, "What did you throw?"

Su Muqiu calmly explained: "I haven't finished talking this morning, but I also noticed one thing, that is, most zombies react strongly to red objects."

Ye Xiu struggled to turn around, and sure enough, as he said, the red cloth was neither noisy nor warm, but many zombies chased the red cloth away.

The engine-changed car drove at full speed and left the danger zone in a short while. Ye Xiu recovered from a trance for a moment, and realized that there was no clean spot on his body, and it stinks.He moved away from Su Mucheng in vain, inadvertently pressed his palm on the car seat, gasped immediately, raised his hand and looked at the palm full of glass shards.

"What's wrong? What's the matter?" Su Muqiu asked sharply.

"No. You can drive forward for a while, and you will be out of danger when you leave the residential area." Ye Xiu covered his palms calmly: "Didn't you just make an appointment for an hour?"

"Yes."

"Then why are you back?"

"I did leave within an hour." Su Muqiu pointed to the time.

Ye Xiu did some calculations and realized that what Su Muqiu said was correct. About an hour had passed when he carried himself into the car, which meant that when Ye Xiu didn't see the car from the supermarket, the time hadn't arrived at all.

Before Ye Xiu could react, Su Muqiu said, "When you first entered, I drove around the supermarket and found their delivery truck parked nearby, with a lot of things still in the car, so I moved together with Mucheng. Some came back. I was thinking that it was almost time to return to pick you up, but I didn’t expect to see someone being crushed and beaten by zombies in misery."

Ye Xiu was speechless: "Da Su, you didn't keep watch outside, you just left me and went to move the goods?"

Su Muqiu mocked back: "Master Ye Xiu, are you here to chop up zombies for leveling up or to get food with cigarettes? Go in and kill them for a long time, if you can't kill them clean, why don't you just take the things and run away?"

"It's easy to say, I don't kill zombies, do I want to eat dinner while they eat it?"

Su Mucheng smiled and listened to the meaningless bickering of the two people in the front and back seats, and did not pierce her brother. When he heard the loud sound of things falling in the supermarket, he couldn't care less about moving, so he hurriedly checked the stones and pulled his legs. Just run back.

In any case, it's good that the three of them are still there.
