absolutely hot

The two hunters in the settlement set off for the Blue Mountain Forest Park early the next morning. Lei Zhe and Su Ze walked with them and called Shaar.The pickup truck arrived at the foot of the mountain in less than 5 minutes with the hunting tools, and walked along the winding mountain road for a while. On the way, Lei Zhe leaned back in the chair with his hands behind his head, looking left and right, feeling a little discouraged .

On the left is Su Ze holding a gun and resting his eyes with his eyes closed. The temperature began to drop sharply at the end of October, and the mountains and forests in the morning were even more deserted. The scarf was wrapped around the neck of the black-clothed sniper at this moment. Lei Zhe saw that the wind was getting stronger outside the window, so Su Ze pulled up the scarf to cover his chin. He knew that this guy seemed to be recharging his energy, but in fact he was not asleep at all. .On the right, Shaar was looking out the window vigilantly all the way, Lei Zhe had the illusion that if this guy had a pair of cat ears, both of them would be taller now.

"Hey, let me tell you both to relax, this is a forest park and not an African national park, there won't be any wolves, tigers or leopards..."

The two hunters sitting in the cab laughed when they heard what Lei Zhe said: "There are no wolves in the mountains, but there are some that you have to worry about."

Lei Zhe asked, "What do you mean?"

"There are zombies in that mountain." The man driving the car threw his cigarette butt out of the window, "Although the number is not more than that in the city, it will be enough for you if you encounter them."

It makes sense to say that, people living in rich areas are also people, no matter where the virus started to spread, these people who mutated into zombies will never disappear out of thin air.

The pickup truck stopped beside a muddy path, and everyone got out of the car and began to hike into the mountain.The inaccessible mountains exude a dangerous atmosphere.Two hunters led the way ahead, chopping off the bushes and branches blocking the way with their knives. Lei Zhe saw Shaar staring at the hand of the man wielding the knife all the way, wondering, when he saw the young man walking a few steps forward , calling out to one of the hunters:

"Brother Cheng Peng, are you left-handed?"

The hunter named Cheng Peng turned around and saw that it was the shy black-haired boy who had been silent all the way calling him, and was a little surprised: "Ah, yes."

The boy's bright eyes kept staring at his knife: "I see that the knife you use is different from others'?"

"Haha, you can see it!" Cheng Peng showed the knife to the young man, and his tone was not without pride, "My master is a master knife maker, and the knives I use are all specially customized for left-handers. Like scissors, there is not that much difference between left and right hands, but this custom left-handed version of the knife is much easier for left-handed people like me to use.”

"Really... I have a friend who is also left-handed..."

Seeing that the young man couldn't hide his envy in his eyes, Cheng Peng, who usually looked like an ice lump with no expression, could hardly look straight at this moment, so he generously said, "If you like this, I'll give it to you!" Put the dagger in his hand into the scabbard and hand it to Shaar.

The young man took the knife but still couldn't recover, and after a while he was flattered and said: "Thank you Brother Cheng Peng..."

Cheng Peng laughed, and while the young man bowed his head and pulled out the knife to look at it lovingly, he quickly reached out and rubbed the young man's head. Xia Ya buried his head and didn't care, Cheng Peng coughed in his heart, tsk tsk, the fluffy hair was like rubbing Holding a cat feels really nice...

Lei Zhe watched in amazement from behind, and bumped Su Ze's shoulder: "Hey, did that guy call you brother?"

Su Ze asked back, "Have you ever been called?"

Lei Zhe shook his head honestly.

Su Ze glanced at him, pulled the scarf to cover his mouth, buried his head and continued walking.

Lei Zhe's eyes widened belatedly from behind: "You fake facial paralysis..."

It didn't take long for them to go deep into the hinterland of the mountains and forests. There were dense forests covering the sky and the sun, and when they turned back, they could no longer see the way they came from.The two men raised their shotguns and were about to dig out the rabbit's nest. Lei Zhe pulled Su Ze aside and said in a low voice, "We will do it ourselves. Since Old Man Zhan said that we can take as much as we can, we can't join them Take action, so that when the spoils are divided, it will not be clear."

Su Ze looked at Lei Zhe: "What are your plans?"

"I found out last night that there are many bats in this mountain. I borrowed a net from them," Lei Zhe said as he unloaded the fishing net on his back. "Let's find a bat cave and hang the net in At the entrance of the cave, the eyesight of the bats is not good, and they will be able to catch them when they swarm out.” He said emphatically to the two of them, “This time you really have to listen to me, I have thought about it several times, There will be no problem."

Su Ze looked at Lei Zhe's dark circles and nodded, and Xia also nodded.At this moment, the two hunters turned their heads to greet them, and Lei Zhe smiled and waved at them: "Sorry, we're not good at catching rabbits, so it's up to you, let's go over there and have a look!"

The other two talked to each other, but they didn't care. They didn't even tell them to be careful of getting lost, and they just took a step ahead.

It just rained heavily yesterday, and the mountains were muddy and difficult to walk. Su Ze and Xia Ya followed Lei Zhe to trek, one foot at a time, and Xia Ya suddenly said, "Brother Su Ze."

Su Ze stopped and turned around.

The boy untied the knife and handed it to him: "Can you give this knife to Tunan for me?"

"You can give it to him yourself." Su Ze was puzzled.

Xia Ya narrowed his eyes slightly, and landed on the left-handed knife in his hand: "He won't take it if I give it to him." He originally planned to exchange Cheng Peng for a left-handed knife, but he didn't expect the other party to give him the knife directly , It took no effort to get it by accident, but it made people feel a little overwhelmed.

There was a hint of imperceptible frustration on the young man's indifferent face. Su Ze walked over and took the knife, without saying anything, turned and followed Lei Zhe.

Lei Zhe in front seemed to have found a suspicious cave, and greeted them excitedly. Xia Ya handed over the knife, and seemed to let go of a worry, and followed briskly. Su Ze slowed down and walked at the end. Pay attention to your surroundings.

"Shaar, help me pull the net!"

At the same time Lei Zhe greeted Xia Ya, Su Ze suddenly heard a crackling sound behind him, turned his head vigilantly, and a huge black shadow flashed past the dense forest!

The figure of the shadow looked like a human at first glance, but it moved like a quadruped with a hunched back. Su Ze immediately thought of the scene he saw on the way back to the motel from Lan Aowen's camp, and frowned suddenly.

Leon once described the tragic situation of this kind of thing after eating people. If this is really the same creature that was glimpsed in the windbreak forest, then the danger can be imagined.But the people in the settlement have settled here for two years. If there are such monsters in the forest, they cannot be unaware, and it is impossible to just send two people and two shotguns into the mountain rashly.

Could it be just a beast of the mountain?He dismissed the idea as soon as he finished thinking about it. Although this place is located in the suburbs, it used to be an area with good roads. Since there are developers building houses here, there will definitely not be ferocious beasts. With the creature he just saw The size of a leopard is as big as an adult leopard, and it is absolutely impossible for it to inhabit this mountain, and the two of them have clearly stated before that there are no jackals and wild leopards in this mountain.

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. Su Ze raised his head to see the movements of Lei Zhe and Shaar. Seeing that the two had set up traps with their hands and feet, Lei Zhe clapped his hands: "Let's go find another cave and make two preparations. At that time, we will each guard a hole separately."

"How do you know there are bats in this cave?" Su Ze looked at the cave.

Lei Zhe raised his finger and pointed to the dense gaps between the treetops: "Bats will choose the flight route with the least obstacles. If you look at the layout here, and then look at this stinky hole, you will know that there must be bats inside." Tell him, then there will be nothing wrong.

"Let's not separate." Su Ze said, frowning, "This forest is a bit abnormal."

"It's not normal," Lei Zhe replied, but his tone was very relaxed, "But the forests after the end of the world are like this, Su Ze, don't think too much."

"Anyway, let's not separate." Su Ze said in a deep voice.

Lei Zhe looked at Su Ze with a stern face and no room for maneuver, so he had no choice but to compromise.The three of them guarded the trap outside the cave. Almost half an hour passed, and there was no movement at the entrance of the cave. Lei Zhe poked his head outside the cave, and heard Su Ze ask, "Did the blade teach you to catch bats?"

"Yes, there should be nothing wrong..."

"Did he teach you during the day or at night?"

Lei Zhe's back was stunned, and with his back to the two people outside the cave, he held his forehead in frustration, and after a while he whispered: "...it's evening."

Xia Ya asked which pot was not opened and which pot was not opened: "So we have to wait until evening?"

Su Ze was about to get up when suddenly a gunshot broke the silence of the forest.

Lei Zhe said "Hey" and turned his head: "Do you still need a shotgun to shoot a hare?"

Seeing that Su Ze had already stood up, pulled down his scarf and listened carefully, and looked in the direction of the echo of the gunshots, his face immediately darkened. Just as Lei Zhe was about to ask what was going on, several gunshots followed one after another, and there were chaotic screams. Come.

The three of them looked at each other, and hurriedly followed the sound with their weapons in hand.

.

The gunshots followed one after another, then stopped suddenly, and then there was a heart-piercing scream. Lei Zhe and the three chased after the sound. A figure fell down the slope violently, and the three backed away in fright, only to see Qing Na was one of the hunters in the settlement, but the entire left forearm was gone, and the blood dripping looked really scary. Fortunately, he was still alive. With a gun in one hand, he stood up rolling and crawling, terrified. Staring at the direction of the slope, he seemed to have completely forgotten the pain of the severed hand, and he kept yelling, "What the hell is that! What the hell is that!"

Five horses torn corpses!Leon's description flashed in Su Ze's mind. When he looked up, something suddenly jumped down on the slope. Su Ze shouted "Get out of the way", but the man held up the shotgun and pulled the trigger repeatedly, without a single bullet coming out. In a daze, Su Ze rushed over and pushed him away, and felt a gust of wind blowing against his back. At this moment, he had no time to get up, so he rolled the man who was paralyzed from fright to the side. At the same time as it sounded, the monster also roared and rushed towards him. Su Ze thought that the shot must have hit him, but when he turned his head, he suddenly saw the face of the monster close at hand.

The monster has a human body shape, and its facial features are also human-like, but its whole body is red, as if its skin has been peeled off, and only red muscles and tendons are exposed all over its body. Its teeth and palms have been completely animalized, especially its hands and feet. Finger webs sprouted from the tip, and they patted the ground as steady and heavy as a suction cup.

Thanks to Fang Fenglin and his party, Su Ze was shocked and quickly calmed down, but the monster was shot, turned around on the ground screaming, and then turned over again.

Su Ze knew that in terms of speed, he was definitely not the opponent of this thing, and the distance between them was too close, he was already in a dead corner and there was no way to avoid it, so he pulled out the saber on his short boots, and stabbed it diagonally with his backhand.

The monster was quite flexible, and when its neck turned, it turned its head away. The knife stabbed into its neck with all its strength, and it seemed to be stuck in thick concrete, and it could not be pulled out easily!I don't know who fired several shots from behind. Su Ze could only feel the bullets whizzing by his cheeks like sharp arrows, but this random shot finally made the monster's body tremble, and Su Ze pulled out his hands fiercely. The knife was drawn out, and it was aimed at the monster's head in a rush of blood. The knife was aimed at the eyes. The monster screamed, but still had enough strength to shake Su Ze with the knife. Get away!

Lei Zhe threw his pistol over, watching in horror as the four-legged monster and the black-clothed sniper turned backwards and sideways at the same time. Su Ze raised his gun and shot, kneeling on the ground with guns in both hands. There was almost no aiming process, but the bullets were still very accurate. Unfortunately, the round-ended bullets did not seem to cause too much damage to the monster. After being shot, the monster turned around and jumped up the hillside three or two times, and quickly disappeared on the other side of the hillside. .

"Su Ze!" Lei Zhe threw the rifle to Xia Ya, who was stunned, and ran forward. Seeing that Su Ze's clothes were covered in blood, he asked in panic, "How are you?!"

"It's not my blood." Su Ze looked down at the painful part of his body. It was just the abrasion of his skin when he rolled on the ground. The blood on his body came from the hunter who broke his arm.Thinking that I was so close to the five-horse-divided monster just now, that I didn't even have a fluke mentality, and that I was unscathed in the end, and my mood was indescribable for a while.

The group of people looked up at the direction where the monster was escaping, all of them still in shock.Su Ze stepped forward to pick up the rifle and the red scarf that fell in the grass, and turned around to ask Lei Zhe, "Did you fire those shots afterwards?"

Lei Zhe looked at Xia Ya at the side: "I can't help it, this kid can't pull the trigger for a long time, I really can't stand it..."

Su Ze really wanted to ask if you were not worried that you might shoot me, but in the end he gave up and just wrote in his heart "Lei Zhe's marksmanship is terrible, remember that".

Lei Zhe squatted down to look at the hunter who was panting against the stone. He lost a lot of blood. If the bleeding did not stop, his life might be in danger. He tore off the ruffled sleeve and tied it tightly on the man's upper arm.

When tightening the wound, Lei Zhe looked down at the broken arm of the opponent, frowned, and asked, "Where's Cheng Peng?"

"I was bitten to death by that monster..." the man said incoherently.

With this kind of earthen shotgun that can only be shot and bolted, it is naturally impossible to be the opponent of that vigorous monster.

"Didn't you say that there are only zombies here before, so what was that just now?" Lei Zhe still couldn't believe what he saw with his own eyes.

"I... I don't know... It really hasn't appeared before..." The man frowned, sweating on his brow, obviously puzzled.

At this moment, Su Ze, who was standing aside, asked abruptly, "How did you hurt your arm?"

As soon as these words came out, the scene was subtly quiet.Although the man was weak, he immediately understood the intention of the other party's question, and quickly stood up: "Don't get me wrong, this... this monster bit my forearm... I know I can't escape, and if I escape, I will be infected. Just use a knife..." At this point, he couldn't help but look away, the eyes of the young man in black were so cold that people couldn't look directly at them.

Lei Zhe nodded and stood up, walked to Su Ze and Xia Ya, and said in a low voice with a complicated expression: "It doesn't matter whether what he said is true or not, now we have to believe him for now, old man Zhan is suspicious, if we don't Take him back, there is no way to explain the situation here."

Only then did Su Ze look away from the injured man who was coughing violently.

It was still early, but they couldn't care less about hunting anymore.Unexpectedly, this time not only returned empty-handed, but also lost soldiers and generals.On the way down the mountain, Lei Zhe was thinking about how to persuade that stubborn middle-aged man to lead people to evacuate from this place.There was only one monster, and they were already exhausted. If the number increased, there would be no room for people here.

The car returned the same way, and the atmosphere in the car was oppressive.Lei Zhe kept watching the injured man in the rear compartment from the rearview mirror. In order to prevent infection, they could only let the man stay in the rear compartment carrying goods. No complaints about the arrangement either.I don't know if the man really cut off his arm or lied because he was afraid they would throw him away, but at least one thing he can be sure of is that the colony's stockpile should not include vaccines.

In fact, compared to the zombies and the monster of unknown origin, the person who was injured for unknown reasons is more dangerous at the moment. Obispo spreads the most quickly from person to person, and can be infected through air and droplets. However, Wu Ming seems to have told Ah Xue that even if the virus has entered the body of the injured, it will not be contagious in the first short period of time. At least the first hour is relatively safe. They have to bear the risk of infection, at least they still have a few vaccines from Lan Aowen on hand, but if this man really broke his arm and injured himself, leave him alone in the forest where monsters infested Undoubtedly, this was something that would send people to death, and he couldn't do it no matter what.

What we need to do now is to rush to the settlement as soon as possible, and isolate the injured after vaccinating them.

When approaching the settlement, he unexpectedly found that the black iron gate of the villa was wide open, but there was no gatekeeper. Lei Zhe raised his head and asked the wounded in the rear carriage loudly: "Why isn't your gatekeeper here?"

The man stood up and looked out, frowning in surprise.To be on the safe side, Lei Zhe stopped the car and asked through the intercom by the door.

"How is it?" Su Ze asked.

Lei Zhe ended the call and poked his head in: "It's okay, old man Zhan said he has something to call everyone in for a meeting."

The car drove all the way into the driveway of the villa, and it was very quiet around. The wheels picked up the leaves on the road. Just when the main villa appeared in front of the field of vision, Su Ze suddenly straightened his back and shouted: "Stop!!"

Lei Zhe had never seen Su Ze like this before, the car braked suddenly and stopped.

Xia Ya in the back seat was caught off guard and rushed forward, Lei Zhe asked inexplicably: "What's wrong?" Looking up, there was nothing blocking the way on the road, but Su Ze's complexion was very bad, which made him inexplicably nervous stand up.

The sniper in black squinted his eyes and fixed his eyes on the villa not far away: "Someone has been here, we must leave immediately."

Lei Zhe knew that Su Ze's stern expression must not be joking, so he slammed the steering wheel immediately, the car backed up quickly, and was about to turn around and leave, when there was a gunshot out of thin air, and the rear window of the car shattered with a "bang" Gotta smash!

Relying on instinct, Xia got down and dodged the bullet, got up and glanced out the window, and saw figures in the woods moving twice: "There is an ambush!"

Lei Zhexin raised it abruptly, continued driving to break through, and asked Su Ze at the same time: "What's going on?!"

"It's a rut." Su Ze said.

At that time, the pickup truck had rushed out of the villa door, Lei Zhe looked at the driveway ahead, and suddenly realized that there were many more ruts on the ground.When they left in the morning, there were no obvious ruts on the road. Even if people from the settlement had driven out before, the ruts had been washed away by the heavy rain overnight. They were the only ones who drove out today. There are at most two traces of coming and going, but not only the driveway of the villa, but even the mountain road outside the courtyard wall are clearly traces of many vehicles passing by, including the tire marks of large cars, which naturally cannot be vehicles from the settlement.

He still wanted to continue to break through, but it was too late. Heavy locomotives rushed out from both sides of the road from left to right. Seven or eight heavy locomotives roared and sprayed, and surrounded their cars in the middle.

The fronts of these locomotives all had small white flags with hideous black skulls painted on them.Shaar recognized such a notorious outfit at a glance: "Skeleton Legion?"

A few people walked towards them with heavy-fire submachine guns. Before they could react, they raised the butts of their guns and greeted them directly towards the car window. The smashed glass shards fell into the car, and those people had arrogant and enjoyable smiles on their faces. , Lei Zhe couldn't help but grabbed the samurai sword and wanted to push the door out, but at this time his wrist was caught, he turned his head, and Su Ze's black and white eyes stared at him: "If it was a blade, what would he do?"

Accompanied by the sound of glass windows shattering, Lei Zhe's state of daggers and swords disappeared under Su Ze's questioning. He let go of his fingers and put down his samurai sword, patiently waiting for the people outside to smash it and then "bang" Pull the car door open.
