This zombie looks different
Chapter 48 "Then you turn me into a zombie...
001.
"What?" Chen Xia and the others who were ready to leave looked back at Mo Ansen who hadn't moved yet.
"Let's go." Mo Ansen withdrew his attention. He pressed the wound on his hand and lifted the car with his other hand.
When he started to move, Zhong Qiuchen had already walked to the front to explore the way.
Looking at Zhong Qiuchen's still agile figure in the woods full of weeds and dead branches, Mo Ansen was momentarily confused.
Since he met Zhong Qiuchen, Zhong Qiuchen has always been a person who has no material desires. He is not greedy, nor is he like Wu You and Xue Weiwei who like all kinds of powerful weapons. Everything about him is maintained at the minimum standard to be able to live.
But in the recent Zhongqiu morning, it seems to have become extra gluttonous...
Thinking of Zhong Qiuchen's act of giving him vegetables with a face of pain when he was by the river before, and his usual poor appetite, Mo Ansen followed Zhong Qiuchen's pace and paused.
Zhong Qiuchen has a strong ability to adapt. When he first ran away in the forest in the morning, he was still sweating profusely. In the afternoon, he seemed to have adapted to the sweltering and difficult environment in the forest, and he gradually became less breathless.
Seeing Zhong Qiuchen walking on the ground in the woods, Xue Erwei, who was panting and sweating profusely, was in a daze. He didn't know where Zhong Qiuchen had such good physical strength.
After running in the forest for more than three hours at a stretch, Zhong Qiuchen found a relatively flat place for everyone to stop and rest until they could no longer walk.
Unlike before, this time, even Chen Xia didn't have the energy to speak.
After Zhong Qiuchen sat on the ground for a while, he got up and climbed up the big tree beside them, looking towards the forest behind them.
They have already entered the deep mountain area. Looking from the top of the canopy, all the surrounding areas are rolling hills and woods of different heights. In the middle of the autumn morning, they can't even tell which direction they are coming from, so naturally they can't see them. Liao Rufu's group of people hiding under the forest.
No useful information was found, Zhong Qiu went down the tree in the morning.
In the forest surrounded by trees, in the shade where the sun does not shine.
"Forget about Wu You and the others. Liao Rufu and the others have lived in the mountains all year round. They must know these mountains very well. We left a lot of traces along the way. I guess we can't fool them. We can only compare our speed with them." Chen Xia road.
Zhong Qiuchen agrees, Liao Rufu and the others are hunters, they have no advantage in playing hide and seek with hunters in the mountains, not to mention they have such a big car with them.
"Let's enter the tourist area as soon as possible, and find a place to rest when the time comes." Chen Xia took off his suit jacket and threw it on the ground while speaking, not going to wear it again.
Although he is an existence that evolves towards intelligence, his physical fitness has far surpassed that of ordinary people. Before entering the forest, he didn't feel too hot even in the sun, but now he can't bear it. Lin Zi It is estimated that it can reach more than 40 degrees in the hottest time.
After taking off the suit jacket outside, Chen Xia was left with only a black shirt, and with the suit pants of the same color on his body, he suddenly became normal.
Chen Xia's appearance itself is not bad, and her figure is still slender and tall. Coupled with her black attire, she looks quite pleasing to the eye.
When Zhong Qiuchen saw such a morning and summer, he felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
The same was true for Xue Weiwei and Mo Ansen. Mo Ansen didn't show it on his face, but Xue Weiwei had a moved expression that Chen Xia had finally figured it out.
"Let's go." Chen Xia got up with her three chickens on her back.
"Let's go now?" Xue Weiwei didn't want to move.
Mo Ansen stood up, he was still injured, and he was already exhausted, but now is really not the time to rest.
Seeing that Mo Ansen got up, Xue Weiwei gritted his teeth and got up from the ground.
On the road again, they were lucky. They walked forward for less than half an hour and met a small stream in the mountains.
The stream is very narrow, less than two meters at its widest point.The stream is transparent and clear, it should be spring water in the mountains.
The stream has been formed for a long time, and there is an open space on both sides of the stream, which also allows fresh air to circulate in the sweltering forest. The air pours straight into the gaps in the forest, like a cool breeze, making a group of people alive instantly come over.
Seeing the stream, several people jumped on it almost immediately, even Mo Ansen and Zhong Qiuchen couldn't hold back.
A group of people took a vigorous wash by the stream, refilled the kettle with water, and started on the road again.
At six o'clock in the evening, as soon as the sun set, the forest darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After a few people had to bite the bullet and walked for a while in the forest, they had to find a place to rest temporarily.
Without lighting a fire, several people ate and drank water in the forest in the dark, discussing about rest at night.
"I'll keep watch all night." Zhong Qiuchen said.
Mo Ansen looked up.
"You rest, you can't have something wrong at this time." Zhong Qiuchen said before Mo Ansen. Mo Ansen had not fully recovered and ran with them in the forest for a day with his car. No one wants to run away.
Mo Ansen's lips moved, but he didn't say anything.
"Then there's no need for you to watch the whole night alone. You have to run away tomorrow. I'll watch the rest of the night." Xue Weiwei said inarticulately.
Chen Xia looked at Zhong Qiuchen, wanted to help, but swallowed the words, he and Chen Xiaochen could watch the whole night tomorrow night, so that Zhong Qiuchen could have a good rest all night tomorrow.
After discussing it, Mo Ansen and the others lay down early. The road in the mountains was so tiring that they almost fell asleep the moment they lay down.
Zhong Qiuchen sat in the dark, quietly listening to the breathing of the people, and his heart became calm.
It has been more than a month since they left the place of origin, and he has gradually gotten used to this kind of life on the road, and he is also used to the feeling of having a few more people around him.
Zhong Qiuchen closed his eyes and enjoyed this feeling in the silence. He didn't know how far he could go with Mo Ansen and the others, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get used to being alone again after he left.
But at that time, he didn't seem to need to worry about this problem anymore, because at that time he was irrational, and he didn't have the heart to be sad.
Zhong Qiuchen touched the quiver placed beside his leg with his fingers, and he took out a few arrows from the quiver, quietly looking at the arrows against the faint moonlight.
Each of the arrows that Mo Ansen made for him was very fine. The position of the arrow was extremely sharp and had a spiral. It was very sharp and could easily penetrate cement or even steel.
On the opposite side, the backpack that Chen Xia held in her arms moved, Zhong Qiuchen looked and saw three chickens/heads.
After being carried all the way in a backpack, the three chickens looked sleepy, and it was only then that they finally regained some energy.
Zhong Qiuchen's stomach grunted in disbelief, and his Adam's apple instinctively swallowed.
Zhong Qiuchen withdrew his gaze and tried to divert his attention from the three chickens. He closed his eyes and tried to feel his surroundings.
His perception has become stronger and wider, but at the same time, because the things he perceives are increasing geometrically, it makes him unable to perceive what is around him as clearly as before.
Zhong Qiuchen tried to control that ability and let them perceive purposefully.
It didn't go well at first, the world in his perception was still chaotic, but soon the chaos gradually became obedient, and when he deliberately looked in a certain direction, everything in that direction gradually became clear.
Zhong Qiuchen tried to search around, but the black beast didn't follow, it seemed to be frightened by him.
Zhong Qiuchen was funny, and thought of Teng Snake for some reason.
Ever since he told Teng Snake to stop following him, Teng Snake never showed up again.
Thinking of those yellow eyes and vertical pupils, as well as his obedient appearance of squatting on the roof with his tail wrapping his paws, Zhong Qiuchen was in a complicated mood. He had seen more people, and he even felt that Teng Snake was much cuter than humans. .
Thinking of Soaring Snake, Zhong Qiuchen inevitably thought of the one-armed zombie. He looked back at Chen Xia, wondering if the one-armed zombie was still looking for him in the place of origin. If he couldn't find him, would he sad?
Zhong Qiuchen was distracted when there was a commotion at the edge of the range of perception, something was moving.
Zhong Qiuchen sat up straight and looked in the direction of the commotion.
There are several hundred meters of woods between him and the other side, and he can't see the situation there at all. He tries to perceive and concentrates.
His black and white pupils quickly turned black when he didn't know it, and a pair of golden pupils emerged in the darkness that could swallow all the darkness in the world. With the emergence of those pupils, his gaze passed through the densely packed tree trunks.
In the dark forest, a group of twenty or so young and strong hunters are advancing rapidly through the forest with bows and arrows on their backs and knives.
The group of people chased forward while checking the traces on the ground. The traces left by the places they ran during the day became the guides of the group of people and became their direction markers, making the group of people bite them tightly.
Zhong Qiuchen was stunned, and looked away in a burst of dizziness. He shook his head, but the more he shook himself, the more dizzy he became.
I don't know if it was his illusion, but he was just a little hungry at first, but after this, he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and his hands and feet were weak.
Zhong Qiuchen stood still, and after a while, when the dizziness in his head disappeared, he hurried back to call for someone.
After waking up everyone, Zhong Qiuchen quickly told everyone about the situation over there.
"Are you sure?" Xue Weiwei looked towards the silent forest behind him.
"I just heard a voice..." Zhong Qiuchen explained vaguely, it was difficult to explain clearly what it was like to perceive, and his instinct also told him that it might be related to a virus, so it shouldn't be a common situation.
"Are they dogs?" Xue Weiwei rushed to pack his things while complaining, and wanted to run away.
"It is estimated that the large army cannot catch up with us, so Liao Rufu asked the elites in the village to stop us first." Chen Xia was speechless, he had never thought of this method before.
The ones Liao Rufu sent out to chase them must be the best hunters in the mountains. Compared with the hunters who have lived in the mountains all year round, they are just working with axes.
"Can it work?" Zhong Qiuchen looked at Mo Ansen, who hadn't slept for long.
Mo Ansen quickly raised the car placed in the forest above his head, "Let's go."
A group of people moved again. There was no sunlight at night, and they couldn't light a fire to expose themselves. This time, everyone slowed down a lot.
Walking one foot forward, seeing that they hadn't managed to get far in more than ten minutes, everyone turned their heads to look.
Just after they started to run away, the group of people following behind seemed to have heard the movement, and their speed increased, and the sound of footsteps behind them could be vaguely heard from their side.
He ran forward for a few minutes against the darkness, seeing the footsteps behind him getting louder and talking, Chen Xia stopped.
Chen Xia threw the baby backpack with the chicken on her back to Chen Xiaochen, and said at the same time: "You guys go first."
"What are you doing?" Xue Weiwei took off the shotgun on his back and loaded it.
"Let them not catch up with us." Chen Xia's face was expressionless in the dark, and the naturally hanging fingertips gradually elongated.
"It's too late." Zhong Qiuchen, who was running at the front, looked towards the front where they were going, and it was pitch black.
Xue Weiwei looked back when he heard the words, and before he could figure out what Zhong Qiuchen meant, an arrow shot towards him in the darkness with the sound of piercing through the air.
After a "whoosh", the sharp arrow pierced straight into the tree trunk next to Xue Weiwei's head with a trembling sound.
In the darkness, Zhong Qiuchen and the others all looked in the direction of the sharp arrow, twenty or so young and agile figures jumped out of the darkness and quickly surrounded them.
In the crowd, there was another person dressed differently from the others. That person was wearing a vest and holding a gun in his hand. He was tall and thin, just like the tall and thin person before.
Unlike the people in the other villages, he was tall and thin, and his physical strength was completely incomparable. After a group of people stopped, he could only stand by and catch his breath.
Zhong Qiuchen and the others moved closer together, forming a circle back to back in the darkness.
002.
"What are you doing?" Chen Xia put away her nail-grown hands, squinted slightly and looked at the arrow on the tree trunk beside her. Just as the arrow was bent a little further, it would directly hit Xue Erwei.
Facing Chen Xia's preemptive attack, the group of people who managed to catch up with them couldn't help being stunned. Two of them who were older looked at each other and stepped forward, "We should ask you this question!"
"Ask what?" Chen Xia looked blank.
The two choked, and for a moment they didn't know how to answer the conversation.
Before Zhong Qiuchen and the others sneaked away, they didn't break skin with the people in the village. Although they were not kind, Zhong Qiuchen and the others never promised to take the people from the village with them when they left, so naturally they took turns. No one from the village came to question them.
"Isn't it a little bad for you to leave without saying goodbye?" the tall and thin man gasped.
"What's wrong?" Chen Xia was still puzzled, pretending not to understand, "Then you all know now."
The tall and thin man pursed his lips, his face livid.
After discovering that Zhong Qiuchen and the others had escaped, Liao Rufu immediately raised an alarm. If it wasn't for their quick response, they would have already been tied up and died without knowing how.
"Don't talk nonsense with them." A younger man in the group couldn't hold his breath. He tightened the bow and arrow he held in his hand, making a gesture to attack.
Seeing him like this, Xue Weiwei immediately raised the loaded shotgun and aimed the gun at the man.
"You..." Seeing the shotgun that Xue Weiwei stole from the stockade, the young man blushed, "Give us back our guns!"
"Your gun?" Chen Xiaochen asked, and he and Chen Xia exchanged glances.
Chen Xia immediately understood, and he answered, "Who said this gun belongs to you, it is obviously our gun."
"You are talking nonsense. This is obviously the gun in our stockade, and your backpack. That backpack is also ours. You stole it from our stockade."
"If you say it was stolen, you stole it. What is the evidence? How can you prove that they belong to your stockade? They are obviously ours." Chen Xia sneered. These things are indeed not theirs, but they may not be from the stockade. of people.
"you--"
"Okay, don't talk nonsense with them." One of the two older men interrupted.
Listening to Chen Xia's words, knowing that Zhong Qiuchen and the others must have discovered the activities in their village, a group of people no longer concealed it, and their faces suddenly became more hostile.
It has been six years since the virus broke out, and the people in their village have been working as rescue stations in the mountains for six years. They are no longer the simple mountain people they used to be, and their hands have already been stained with blood.
"Arrest them first, and wait for the patriarch and the others to arrive." One of the two leaders said politely.
Zhong Qiuchen said, his voice was cold and calm, "Get ready to run."
Mo Ansen turned his head slightly and glanced at Zhong Qiuchen. Although he didn't understand what Zhong Qiuchen wanted to do, he was still ready. The car he was holding had never been put down, and he didn't pay attention to the twenty or so people. .
Xue Weiwei and Chen Xia looked at Zhong Qiuchen and got ready.
"Want to run? Huh." Some of the people surrounding them snorted coldly.
Almost at the same time as his words fell, a figure suddenly flashed out from the darkness.
Before the others could react, the person who snorted coldly was thrown to the ground by the figure, followed by heart-piercing screams.
It was too dark in the woods, and the moonlight could hardly penetrate, and the sudden scream sounded, which immediately startled everyone and made everyone's hearts tighten.
The group of people in the village quickly dispersed like frightened birds, and no one dared to pull the person who was thrown down on the ground.
The screams of the man on the ground continued to resound, and his voice was full of panic and despair when he realized what had happened. The darkness magnified everything, causing the panic and despair to envelope everyone in an instant.
The four of Mo Ansen understood what had happened almost immediately, they looked at each other, and immediately followed Zhong Qiuchen into the woods without hesitation after rushing out in the first place.
"They ran away!" Someone shouted in the chaos.
"What's your name, you want to die!" Someone next to him suppressed his voice, but it was too late.
Almost at the same time as the two spoke, several figures emerged from the darkness one after another. They rushed towards the crowd at an extremely fast speed, biting anyone they saw.
The few people who were far away reacted and quickly drew their bows and arrows.
They tried to shoot arrows, but there were screaming living people under those zombies, and they were at a loss for a while holding their bows and arrows.
The people in the stockade spent most of their time in the stockade and waited for the rabbit. They were not as experienced in dealing with this situation as Zhong Qiuchen and the others.
The tall and thin man was quite experienced, he immediately retreated far away from the crowd, aimed his loaded gun at the zombies on the ground, thought about it and gave up.
In this kind of deep mountain and wild forest, or in this kind of quiet night, once he shoots, the sound will be heard far away, and it will only attract more zombies.
"Follow closely, this way." Running out of the crowd, Zhong Qiuchen glanced across the darkness, and when the people in the village were still in a mess, he quickly identified the safe direction without zombies.
While speaking, the arrow in Zhong Qiuchen's hand shot out, accurately hitting the zombies rushing towards them from behind the tree on the left.
There weren't many zombies nearby, and there were only a dozen or so in total, but even these ten or so zombies were enough to make everyone mess up.
Xue Weiwei and the others hurriedly followed.
Running out of the crowd, several people followed Zhong Qiuchen around the woods, but they ran a long distance in a short while.
In the darkness, the group of people in the village noticed and tried to keep up, but they were surrounded by zombies, which made them unable to move at all.
Zhong Qiuchen didn't turn back to save people, he led everyone around the zombies in the forest who were startled by the sound, and quickly moved away.
In the distance, in the woods, Liu Shien, who was lying down and resting, opened his eyes when he heard the fierce screams coming from a distance. Sun Shunqiu beside him had already looked in the direction of the sound.
"There are people in the mountains." Sun Shunqiu was surprised, except for Zhong Qiuchen and the others, they didn't meet a few living people along the way.
Liu Shien frowned, "Could it be Mo Ansen and the others?"
Sun Shunqiu hesitated, "It's possible, but the number of people is a bit too large, and the voice doesn't sound like..."
Zhong Qiuchen, Mo Ansen, Xue Weiwei, Hai Yin, Wu You, Ao Yue, Zhong Qiuchen's group of people add up to only six people, and there were more than six screams in the mountains just now.
Sun Shunqiu looked at Liu Shien, "Let's go, there are zombies in this forest."
After entering this forest, he relaxed his tense nerves. He thought it should be safe here, but he didn't expect that there were zombies in this ghost forest.
Liu Shien didn't move, she listened for a while and said: "Let's go and have a look."
"What?" Sun Shunqiu was surprised.
"What if it's really Zhong Qiuchen and the others?" Liu Shien stood up, thinking that it might be Zhong Qiuchen and the others ahead of her, she couldn't wait.
Forget about Xue Weiwei, Hai Yin and Wu You, Zhong Qiuchen and Mo Ansen's words can greatly increase the survival rate of the team, and she is now a second awakened existence, which is different from before...
Liu Shien thought about the possibility of controlling Mo Ansen and Zhong Qiuchen. If she could control Mo Ansen and Zhong Qiuchen, no one in the world would be able to do anything to her, and she would no longer need to rely on Sun Shunqiu.
Sun Shunqiu was quite good, but compared to Zhong Qiuchen and Mo Ansen, he was completely incomparable.
Thinking of this possibility, Liu Shien speeded up, "Let's go."
Sun Shunqiu frowned and did not follow.
Liu Shien found it after walking a certain distance, and looked back.
"It's too dangerous." Sun Shunqiu disagreed, and while speaking, he glanced at Liu Shien's growing belly. He didn't want anything to happen to Liu Shien, let alone his child.
The woods are no better than the outside, even if there are zombies, he may not be able to find them in advance, and he doesn't have many bullets.
Liu Shien pursed her lips and remained silent, she looked straight into Sun Shunqiu's eyes.
Sun Shunqiu said softly, "I'm doing this for your own good."
"They have just been attacked. There may be zombies in the woods over there. We can wait until tomorrow morning to find them. It will be safer then."
"You can't risk your child, even if you don't think about yourself, think about him."
"Shut up!" Liu Shi'en looked down at his protruding belly, his face gradually became sullen, and there were black lines floating in his pupils.
Looking into those eyes, Sun Shunqiu, who was about to say something more, froze for a moment, his eyes were blank for a moment, and after that short moment, when Sun Shunqiu looked at Liu Shien again, his eyes were a little more anxious.
Sun Shunqiu quickly packed the things on the ground, put them in a backpack and carried them on his back. He strode towards Liu Shien, "How about it? Can you still go? We must find them as soon as possible."
Liu Shi'en remained silent, turned around and walked towards the direction of the voice in the forest.
Seeing this, Sun Shunqiu followed immediately.
Watching the two quickly disappear into the forest, a figure with long hair came out from behind a tree not far away.
Heine frowned slightly.
She and Sun Shunqiu do not have a close relationship, they only know their names. This kind of situation abounds in the exploration team. After all, most of the exploration team members in the park are mobile, and the exploration team often needs to increase or decrease personnel according to the size of the city to be explored. .
Sun Shunqiu is fairly well-known in the expedition team. Leaving aside his personality, he is still good at shooting, at least better than most ordinary people.
He can live too, and people with his personality can live better than anyone else.
Therefore, Sun Shunqiu almost became the captain when he first selected the team to go to the place of origin.
Hai Yin's impression of Sun Shunqiu was limited to this, and even more so for him, she didn't even know anything about Liu Shien, who was not even certified by him.
But judging from their previous relationship in the place of origin, Sun Shunqiu has always been in the dominant position, and Liu Shien is more like a poor little boy who was forcibly tied by his side. Heine really couldn't understand what the scene she saw just now one thing.
"Fake it?" Heine pursed her lips, and instinctively told her that the situation was not that simple. Liu Shien gave her a different feeling than before, not just because of her different attitude.
Heine glanced at the direction Liu Shien and the two left, and turned to look at the flying snake beside him, who was hiding his breath. The latter shook his head and looked very happy when he walked with his tail raised high, and he didn't care about what happened just now.
Heine rubbed the bridge of her nose and said, "We can't let the two of them catch up with Zhong Qiuchen and the others."
Teng Snake's joyfully shaking head stopped, and it looked at Heine with faint golden eyes in the darkness, "Oh?"
"Those two guys are not good people. Letting them catch up with Zhong Qiuchen is definitely not good." He Yin said, she didn't know Liu Shien, but Sun Shunqiu was definitely not a good person.
Soaring Snake's high-raised tail was pressed down, and the stupid energy it had just disappeared was replaced by ice-coldness. If you dare to touch its king, you will die!
003.
In the woods, Zhong Qiuchen led the people behind him to rely on his keen perception to avoid the zombies rushing towards the group of people behind him, and quickly opened the distance.
After running in the woods for nearly twenty minutes at a stretch, Zhong Qiuchen stopped only after making sure that those people would not be able to catch up with them for a while.
Seeing that Zhong Qiuchen stopped and the others followed suit, they looked back, their eyes full of wariness.
The screams quieted down after a while, followed by new screams. After six or seven screams in succession, the woods returned to darkness.
"How can there be zombies in this place?" Chen Xiaochen was puzzled, there was still some distance from the tourist area.
Chen Xia shook her head, she couldn't figure it out, but thanks to those zombies they were able to get rid of those people.
"It should be caused by the landslide." Zhong Qiuchen said.
The place where the landslide was not too far from the stockade, the landslide area was very large, and there must have been quite a lot of noise. It is not surprising that the zombies were attracted from the tourist area.
"It seems that we have to be careful in the future." Xue Weiwei said.
While speaking, several people turned their heads and looked around.
The environment in the forest was very bad, with the dense tree trunks and the darkness brought by the lack of moonlight, even if there were zombies around, they probably wouldn't be able to find each other before those zombies suddenly rushed over.
However, the forest is not always quiet. From time to time, there will be the sound of trembling leaves, creating an illusion that there are zombies everywhere in the dark.
Faced with this, a group of people's scalps were numb, and their nerves tensed because of what happened just now became more and more tense.
"Why did the tall and thin guy get mixed up with Liao Rufu and his men?" Xue Weiwei asked in a low voice.
He thought that after they escaped, Liao Rufu would definitely embarrass Wu You and the others, maybe their attention would be attracted by Wu You and the others, but he didn't expect that Liao Rufu and the tall and thin man would join forces to arrest them.
"Wu You probably told Liao Rufu about the machine and the contribution points. Only in this way can they cooperate with each other." Zhong Qiuchen looked at Mo Ansen.
Wu You knows the people in the paradise, and Liao Rufu needs the qualifications to enter the paradise and negotiate with the paradise. As long as they can get the machine, everything will be different.
Mo Ansen had already guessed this when he saw the tall and thin man in the crowd chasing them, which made his face very gloomy. If there were no zombies, he would have taken action just now, and what did he want to let those people in the village know? Things can be delusional and absolutely untouchable.
"That bastard..." Xue Weiwei gritted his teeth.
Not daring to stay longer, Zhong Qiuchen continued to take the lead and walked forward.
The village is two or three days away from the tourist area. They have been walking for a whole day, and the distance has been nearly half.
The further you go, the less people there are in the forest, and the surrounding trees become more lush. Some trees are even hundreds of years old, and even a few people can't surround them.
The tree is old, the trunk is thick, the crown is bigger and bigger, and the sunlight can't come in. This makes the ground below the forest almost barren, only thick rotting leaves. When you step on it, it's like stepping on some rotten skin. Feeling extremely uncomfortable.
"Why is it getting hotter and hotter?" After walking a little further, Xue Weiwei asked while wiping his sweat with a gun in his hand.
"It might be raining." Zhong Qiuchen looked up at the tree crown above his head.
There is no starry sky in the gaps between the tree crowns, and it is replaced by darkness. The rain in the midsummer season is like this, and it comes and goes quickly.
"Find a place to shelter from the rain," Mo Ansen said.
Zhong Qiuchen turned his head to look around, and chose a relatively high and flat place to take everyone there.
When they arrived at the place, they watched Mo Ansen put down the car. Before they could get in the car to shelter from the rain, the rain began to fall.
Big drops of rain hit the tree crowns above their heads, and then condensed from the tree crowns into larger raindrops, which made people feel scalp pain when the rain hit the top of their heads.
Several people quickly got into the car and took shelter from the rain in the car.
Big drops of rain fell on the canopy, from the canopy to the roof of the car, tick-tock, as if composing an alternative forest music.
The music is pleasant, if a little hypnotic.
Everyone sat in the car looking at the rain outside, and each of them started to feel sleepy within 10 minutes. They got up at one o'clock in the morning, and they almost didn't stop all day long. When I woke up, I was already sleepy and tired.
"You guys go to bed first, I'll go around the neighborhood to see if there are any zombies." Zhong Qiuchen said as he got out of the car.
Returning to the rain curtain, the rain hit quickly, Zhong Qiuchen shook his head, and quickly walked towards the surroundings.
Zhong Qiuchen didn't go far, and after quickly checking the surrounding area, he returned to the direction they came from, and he looked there in the rain.
With the concentration of his attention, the black in his pupils quickly spread and flooded the entire eye socket, and the golden pupils quickly emerged. With the changes in his eyes, everything in his perception gradually became clear.
They were already very far away from the place where they met the tall and thin one, and he could no longer see the situation there, but there was no one on the way they walked, and they did not catch up with the tall and thin one.
Withdrawing his gaze, Zhong Qiuchen shook his dizzy head, feeling the clear sense of hunger coming from his abdomen, and walked towards the direction of the car in the rain.
When he returned to the vicinity of the car, there was a figure in front of the car looking down at his feet.
In the foggy darkness, the figure bowed its head and turned its back to the car, motionless. The scene was a bit creepy.
Zhong Qiuchen was stunned for a moment before recognizing that the man was Mo Ansen.
Zhong Qiuchen stepped forward.
He got close to about five meters before Mo Ansen heard his footsteps. Mo Ansen seemed to wake up from a dream and looked sideways.
Zhong Qiuchen glanced at the situation in the car, Chen Xia and the others were already asleep, and Zhong Qiuchen looked at Mo Ansen again, wondering why he was in the rain here, even if Mo Ansen wanted to wait for him, he didn't need to be in the rain.
Mo Ansen didn't answer directly, but tapped the ground under his feet.
Zhong Qiuchen followed his movements and saw that there were thick rotting leaves everywhere under their feet.On the surface of the rotten leaves, the original withered yellow color of the leaves can be seen, and the lower layer is half-rotted black.
The leaf on the surface under Mo Ansen's feet was pushed away by him, and it became even more completely black.
In the blackness, a faint outline emerged, and Zhong Qiuchen stared at the outline for a few seconds before realizing that it was a skeleton.
The surface of the skeleton was only covered by leaves, and the flesh/body had decayed, leaving only a black skeleton.The bones were not buried deep, and it seemed that they should have been during the outbreak of the virus.
Mo Ansen was studying the skull of the skeleton just now. The skull was complete without gunshot marks, and the spine below the skull was also complete without obvious scars.
A zombie can only be "killed" if its head is destroyed or the spine connecting the head is destroyed. The owner of this skeleton is obviously not a zombie, and he should still be a person when he died.
This kind of deep mountains and wild forests is generally not visited by people, only people from tourist areas escaped, he escaped the pursuit of zombies, he did not die in the mouths of zombies, but died in the hands of humans.
After Mo Ansen looked at it again, the dead leaves around him danced without wind, covering the skeleton again.
He has no plan to call Xue Weiwei and the others. This kind of thing is not unusual. It is not surprising that people who can live to this day, except Zhong Qiuchen, have already become accustomed to it.
Covering the bones, Mo Ansen looked at Zhong Qiuchen, who was indeed frowning.
Looking at Zhong Qiuchen like that, the corners of Mo Ansen's mouth twitched uncontrollably. Although Zhong Qiuchen's six years in the place of origin were also very hard, those six years were also another kind of protection for him.
"In Paradise, this kind of thing is very common." Mo Ansen said in a voice that only two people could hear.
Zhong Qiuchen looked over.
"Every time the exploration team goes out to explore, there will be fewer people who come back, but God knows whether the zombies killed them or who killed them."
Zhong Qiuchen frowned, and he thought of Liao Rufu and his group. They used the excuse of rescue in the mountains to seek wealth and murder, and insisted that they also wanted to live.
Wu You calculated that they dragged them into the water in order to live.
Zhong Qiuchen lowered his head, he looked at the raindrops falling on the leaves, and he said after a long time, "...I don't want to go to Paradise anymore."
He wanted to go to Paradise at the beginning because he had had enough of the hopeless days when he was the only one left in the world. He wanted someone to talk to him, even if that person was a fool or a lunatic.
But now, he began to miss the days in the place of origin.
Mo Ansen seemed to smile.
Zhong Qiuchen looked up in astonishment.
Mo Ansen was indeed smiling, the corners of his mouth curled up on his rain-drenched face, and his eyes were cold and gentle.
Zhong Qiuchen's eyes widened slightly. At the beginning, when he negotiated with Mo Ansen and made a deal, he was very determined to leave the place of origin. He thought that Mo Ansen would be surprised, puzzled or angry when he heard his words now, but he only I never thought Mo Ansen would laugh.
Looking at Mo Ansen who was smiling happily, Zhong Qiuchen suddenly felt wronged, is he very funny?
Thinking about it, Zhong Qiuchen couldn't help being angry, angry with herself.
He is indeed funny. He spent so much effort to leave the place of origin, but he regretted it before reaching the paradise. Isn't that funny?
moan
"What?" Chen Xia and the others who were ready to leave looked back at Mo Ansen who hadn't moved yet.
"Let's go." Mo Ansen withdrew his attention. He pressed the wound on his hand and lifted the car with his other hand.
When he started to move, Zhong Qiuchen had already walked to the front to explore the way.
Looking at Zhong Qiuchen's still agile figure in the woods full of weeds and dead branches, Mo Ansen was momentarily confused.
Since he met Zhong Qiuchen, Zhong Qiuchen has always been a person who has no material desires. He is not greedy, nor is he like Wu You and Xue Weiwei who like all kinds of powerful weapons. Everything about him is maintained at the minimum standard to be able to live.
But in the recent Zhongqiu morning, it seems to have become extra gluttonous...
Thinking of Zhong Qiuchen's act of giving him vegetables with a face of pain when he was by the river before, and his usual poor appetite, Mo Ansen followed Zhong Qiuchen's pace and paused.
Zhong Qiuchen has a strong ability to adapt. When he first ran away in the forest in the morning, he was still sweating profusely. In the afternoon, he seemed to have adapted to the sweltering and difficult environment in the forest, and he gradually became less breathless.
Seeing Zhong Qiuchen walking on the ground in the woods, Xue Erwei, who was panting and sweating profusely, was in a daze. He didn't know where Zhong Qiuchen had such good physical strength.
After running in the forest for more than three hours at a stretch, Zhong Qiuchen found a relatively flat place for everyone to stop and rest until they could no longer walk.
Unlike before, this time, even Chen Xia didn't have the energy to speak.
After Zhong Qiuchen sat on the ground for a while, he got up and climbed up the big tree beside them, looking towards the forest behind them.
They have already entered the deep mountain area. Looking from the top of the canopy, all the surrounding areas are rolling hills and woods of different heights. In the middle of the autumn morning, they can't even tell which direction they are coming from, so naturally they can't see them. Liao Rufu's group of people hiding under the forest.
No useful information was found, Zhong Qiu went down the tree in the morning.
In the forest surrounded by trees, in the shade where the sun does not shine.
"Forget about Wu You and the others. Liao Rufu and the others have lived in the mountains all year round. They must know these mountains very well. We left a lot of traces along the way. I guess we can't fool them. We can only compare our speed with them." Chen Xia road.
Zhong Qiuchen agrees, Liao Rufu and the others are hunters, they have no advantage in playing hide and seek with hunters in the mountains, not to mention they have such a big car with them.
"Let's enter the tourist area as soon as possible, and find a place to rest when the time comes." Chen Xia took off his suit jacket and threw it on the ground while speaking, not going to wear it again.
Although he is an existence that evolves towards intelligence, his physical fitness has far surpassed that of ordinary people. Before entering the forest, he didn't feel too hot even in the sun, but now he can't bear it. Lin Zi It is estimated that it can reach more than 40 degrees in the hottest time.
After taking off the suit jacket outside, Chen Xia was left with only a black shirt, and with the suit pants of the same color on his body, he suddenly became normal.
Chen Xia's appearance itself is not bad, and her figure is still slender and tall. Coupled with her black attire, she looks quite pleasing to the eye.
When Zhong Qiuchen saw such a morning and summer, he felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
The same was true for Xue Weiwei and Mo Ansen. Mo Ansen didn't show it on his face, but Xue Weiwei had a moved expression that Chen Xia had finally figured it out.
"Let's go." Chen Xia got up with her three chickens on her back.
"Let's go now?" Xue Weiwei didn't want to move.
Mo Ansen stood up, he was still injured, and he was already exhausted, but now is really not the time to rest.
Seeing that Mo Ansen got up, Xue Weiwei gritted his teeth and got up from the ground.
On the road again, they were lucky. They walked forward for less than half an hour and met a small stream in the mountains.
The stream is very narrow, less than two meters at its widest point.The stream is transparent and clear, it should be spring water in the mountains.
The stream has been formed for a long time, and there is an open space on both sides of the stream, which also allows fresh air to circulate in the sweltering forest. The air pours straight into the gaps in the forest, like a cool breeze, making a group of people alive instantly come over.
Seeing the stream, several people jumped on it almost immediately, even Mo Ansen and Zhong Qiuchen couldn't hold back.
A group of people took a vigorous wash by the stream, refilled the kettle with water, and started on the road again.
At six o'clock in the evening, as soon as the sun set, the forest darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After a few people had to bite the bullet and walked for a while in the forest, they had to find a place to rest temporarily.
Without lighting a fire, several people ate and drank water in the forest in the dark, discussing about rest at night.
"I'll keep watch all night." Zhong Qiuchen said.
Mo Ansen looked up.
"You rest, you can't have something wrong at this time." Zhong Qiuchen said before Mo Ansen. Mo Ansen had not fully recovered and ran with them in the forest for a day with his car. No one wants to run away.
Mo Ansen's lips moved, but he didn't say anything.
"Then there's no need for you to watch the whole night alone. You have to run away tomorrow. I'll watch the rest of the night." Xue Weiwei said inarticulately.
Chen Xia looked at Zhong Qiuchen, wanted to help, but swallowed the words, he and Chen Xiaochen could watch the whole night tomorrow night, so that Zhong Qiuchen could have a good rest all night tomorrow.
After discussing it, Mo Ansen and the others lay down early. The road in the mountains was so tiring that they almost fell asleep the moment they lay down.
Zhong Qiuchen sat in the dark, quietly listening to the breathing of the people, and his heart became calm.
It has been more than a month since they left the place of origin, and he has gradually gotten used to this kind of life on the road, and he is also used to the feeling of having a few more people around him.
Zhong Qiuchen closed his eyes and enjoyed this feeling in the silence. He didn't know how far he could go with Mo Ansen and the others, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get used to being alone again after he left.
But at that time, he didn't seem to need to worry about this problem anymore, because at that time he was irrational, and he didn't have the heart to be sad.
Zhong Qiuchen touched the quiver placed beside his leg with his fingers, and he took out a few arrows from the quiver, quietly looking at the arrows against the faint moonlight.
Each of the arrows that Mo Ansen made for him was very fine. The position of the arrow was extremely sharp and had a spiral. It was very sharp and could easily penetrate cement or even steel.
On the opposite side, the backpack that Chen Xia held in her arms moved, Zhong Qiuchen looked and saw three chickens/heads.
After being carried all the way in a backpack, the three chickens looked sleepy, and it was only then that they finally regained some energy.
Zhong Qiuchen's stomach grunted in disbelief, and his Adam's apple instinctively swallowed.
Zhong Qiuchen withdrew his gaze and tried to divert his attention from the three chickens. He closed his eyes and tried to feel his surroundings.
His perception has become stronger and wider, but at the same time, because the things he perceives are increasing geometrically, it makes him unable to perceive what is around him as clearly as before.
Zhong Qiuchen tried to control that ability and let them perceive purposefully.
It didn't go well at first, the world in his perception was still chaotic, but soon the chaos gradually became obedient, and when he deliberately looked in a certain direction, everything in that direction gradually became clear.
Zhong Qiuchen tried to search around, but the black beast didn't follow, it seemed to be frightened by him.
Zhong Qiuchen was funny, and thought of Teng Snake for some reason.
Ever since he told Teng Snake to stop following him, Teng Snake never showed up again.
Thinking of those yellow eyes and vertical pupils, as well as his obedient appearance of squatting on the roof with his tail wrapping his paws, Zhong Qiuchen was in a complicated mood. He had seen more people, and he even felt that Teng Snake was much cuter than humans. .
Thinking of Soaring Snake, Zhong Qiuchen inevitably thought of the one-armed zombie. He looked back at Chen Xia, wondering if the one-armed zombie was still looking for him in the place of origin. If he couldn't find him, would he sad?
Zhong Qiuchen was distracted when there was a commotion at the edge of the range of perception, something was moving.
Zhong Qiuchen sat up straight and looked in the direction of the commotion.
There are several hundred meters of woods between him and the other side, and he can't see the situation there at all. He tries to perceive and concentrates.
His black and white pupils quickly turned black when he didn't know it, and a pair of golden pupils emerged in the darkness that could swallow all the darkness in the world. With the emergence of those pupils, his gaze passed through the densely packed tree trunks.
In the dark forest, a group of twenty or so young and strong hunters are advancing rapidly through the forest with bows and arrows on their backs and knives.
The group of people chased forward while checking the traces on the ground. The traces left by the places they ran during the day became the guides of the group of people and became their direction markers, making the group of people bite them tightly.
Zhong Qiuchen was stunned, and looked away in a burst of dizziness. He shook his head, but the more he shook himself, the more dizzy he became.
I don't know if it was his illusion, but he was just a little hungry at first, but after this, he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and his hands and feet were weak.
Zhong Qiuchen stood still, and after a while, when the dizziness in his head disappeared, he hurried back to call for someone.
After waking up everyone, Zhong Qiuchen quickly told everyone about the situation over there.
"Are you sure?" Xue Weiwei looked towards the silent forest behind him.
"I just heard a voice..." Zhong Qiuchen explained vaguely, it was difficult to explain clearly what it was like to perceive, and his instinct also told him that it might be related to a virus, so it shouldn't be a common situation.
"Are they dogs?" Xue Weiwei rushed to pack his things while complaining, and wanted to run away.
"It is estimated that the large army cannot catch up with us, so Liao Rufu asked the elites in the village to stop us first." Chen Xia was speechless, he had never thought of this method before.
The ones Liao Rufu sent out to chase them must be the best hunters in the mountains. Compared with the hunters who have lived in the mountains all year round, they are just working with axes.
"Can it work?" Zhong Qiuchen looked at Mo Ansen, who hadn't slept for long.
Mo Ansen quickly raised the car placed in the forest above his head, "Let's go."
A group of people moved again. There was no sunlight at night, and they couldn't light a fire to expose themselves. This time, everyone slowed down a lot.
Walking one foot forward, seeing that they hadn't managed to get far in more than ten minutes, everyone turned their heads to look.
Just after they started to run away, the group of people following behind seemed to have heard the movement, and their speed increased, and the sound of footsteps behind them could be vaguely heard from their side.
He ran forward for a few minutes against the darkness, seeing the footsteps behind him getting louder and talking, Chen Xia stopped.
Chen Xia threw the baby backpack with the chicken on her back to Chen Xiaochen, and said at the same time: "You guys go first."
"What are you doing?" Xue Weiwei took off the shotgun on his back and loaded it.
"Let them not catch up with us." Chen Xia's face was expressionless in the dark, and the naturally hanging fingertips gradually elongated.
"It's too late." Zhong Qiuchen, who was running at the front, looked towards the front where they were going, and it was pitch black.
Xue Weiwei looked back when he heard the words, and before he could figure out what Zhong Qiuchen meant, an arrow shot towards him in the darkness with the sound of piercing through the air.
After a "whoosh", the sharp arrow pierced straight into the tree trunk next to Xue Weiwei's head with a trembling sound.
In the darkness, Zhong Qiuchen and the others all looked in the direction of the sharp arrow, twenty or so young and agile figures jumped out of the darkness and quickly surrounded them.
In the crowd, there was another person dressed differently from the others. That person was wearing a vest and holding a gun in his hand. He was tall and thin, just like the tall and thin person before.
Unlike the people in the other villages, he was tall and thin, and his physical strength was completely incomparable. After a group of people stopped, he could only stand by and catch his breath.
Zhong Qiuchen and the others moved closer together, forming a circle back to back in the darkness.
002.
"What are you doing?" Chen Xia put away her nail-grown hands, squinted slightly and looked at the arrow on the tree trunk beside her. Just as the arrow was bent a little further, it would directly hit Xue Erwei.
Facing Chen Xia's preemptive attack, the group of people who managed to catch up with them couldn't help being stunned. Two of them who were older looked at each other and stepped forward, "We should ask you this question!"
"Ask what?" Chen Xia looked blank.
The two choked, and for a moment they didn't know how to answer the conversation.
Before Zhong Qiuchen and the others sneaked away, they didn't break skin with the people in the village. Although they were not kind, Zhong Qiuchen and the others never promised to take the people from the village with them when they left, so naturally they took turns. No one from the village came to question them.
"Isn't it a little bad for you to leave without saying goodbye?" the tall and thin man gasped.
"What's wrong?" Chen Xia was still puzzled, pretending not to understand, "Then you all know now."
The tall and thin man pursed his lips, his face livid.
After discovering that Zhong Qiuchen and the others had escaped, Liao Rufu immediately raised an alarm. If it wasn't for their quick response, they would have already been tied up and died without knowing how.
"Don't talk nonsense with them." A younger man in the group couldn't hold his breath. He tightened the bow and arrow he held in his hand, making a gesture to attack.
Seeing him like this, Xue Weiwei immediately raised the loaded shotgun and aimed the gun at the man.
"You..." Seeing the shotgun that Xue Weiwei stole from the stockade, the young man blushed, "Give us back our guns!"
"Your gun?" Chen Xiaochen asked, and he and Chen Xia exchanged glances.
Chen Xia immediately understood, and he answered, "Who said this gun belongs to you, it is obviously our gun."
"You are talking nonsense. This is obviously the gun in our stockade, and your backpack. That backpack is also ours. You stole it from our stockade."
"If you say it was stolen, you stole it. What is the evidence? How can you prove that they belong to your stockade? They are obviously ours." Chen Xia sneered. These things are indeed not theirs, but they may not be from the stockade. of people.
"you--"
"Okay, don't talk nonsense with them." One of the two older men interrupted.
Listening to Chen Xia's words, knowing that Zhong Qiuchen and the others must have discovered the activities in their village, a group of people no longer concealed it, and their faces suddenly became more hostile.
It has been six years since the virus broke out, and the people in their village have been working as rescue stations in the mountains for six years. They are no longer the simple mountain people they used to be, and their hands have already been stained with blood.
"Arrest them first, and wait for the patriarch and the others to arrive." One of the two leaders said politely.
Zhong Qiuchen said, his voice was cold and calm, "Get ready to run."
Mo Ansen turned his head slightly and glanced at Zhong Qiuchen. Although he didn't understand what Zhong Qiuchen wanted to do, he was still ready. The car he was holding had never been put down, and he didn't pay attention to the twenty or so people. .
Xue Weiwei and Chen Xia looked at Zhong Qiuchen and got ready.
"Want to run? Huh." Some of the people surrounding them snorted coldly.
Almost at the same time as his words fell, a figure suddenly flashed out from the darkness.
Before the others could react, the person who snorted coldly was thrown to the ground by the figure, followed by heart-piercing screams.
It was too dark in the woods, and the moonlight could hardly penetrate, and the sudden scream sounded, which immediately startled everyone and made everyone's hearts tighten.
The group of people in the village quickly dispersed like frightened birds, and no one dared to pull the person who was thrown down on the ground.
The screams of the man on the ground continued to resound, and his voice was full of panic and despair when he realized what had happened. The darkness magnified everything, causing the panic and despair to envelope everyone in an instant.
The four of Mo Ansen understood what had happened almost immediately, they looked at each other, and immediately followed Zhong Qiuchen into the woods without hesitation after rushing out in the first place.
"They ran away!" Someone shouted in the chaos.
"What's your name, you want to die!" Someone next to him suppressed his voice, but it was too late.
Almost at the same time as the two spoke, several figures emerged from the darkness one after another. They rushed towards the crowd at an extremely fast speed, biting anyone they saw.
The few people who were far away reacted and quickly drew their bows and arrows.
They tried to shoot arrows, but there were screaming living people under those zombies, and they were at a loss for a while holding their bows and arrows.
The people in the stockade spent most of their time in the stockade and waited for the rabbit. They were not as experienced in dealing with this situation as Zhong Qiuchen and the others.
The tall and thin man was quite experienced, he immediately retreated far away from the crowd, aimed his loaded gun at the zombies on the ground, thought about it and gave up.
In this kind of deep mountain and wild forest, or in this kind of quiet night, once he shoots, the sound will be heard far away, and it will only attract more zombies.
"Follow closely, this way." Running out of the crowd, Zhong Qiuchen glanced across the darkness, and when the people in the village were still in a mess, he quickly identified the safe direction without zombies.
While speaking, the arrow in Zhong Qiuchen's hand shot out, accurately hitting the zombies rushing towards them from behind the tree on the left.
There weren't many zombies nearby, and there were only a dozen or so in total, but even these ten or so zombies were enough to make everyone mess up.
Xue Weiwei and the others hurriedly followed.
Running out of the crowd, several people followed Zhong Qiuchen around the woods, but they ran a long distance in a short while.
In the darkness, the group of people in the village noticed and tried to keep up, but they were surrounded by zombies, which made them unable to move at all.
Zhong Qiuchen didn't turn back to save people, he led everyone around the zombies in the forest who were startled by the sound, and quickly moved away.
In the distance, in the woods, Liu Shien, who was lying down and resting, opened his eyes when he heard the fierce screams coming from a distance. Sun Shunqiu beside him had already looked in the direction of the sound.
"There are people in the mountains." Sun Shunqiu was surprised, except for Zhong Qiuchen and the others, they didn't meet a few living people along the way.
Liu Shien frowned, "Could it be Mo Ansen and the others?"
Sun Shunqiu hesitated, "It's possible, but the number of people is a bit too large, and the voice doesn't sound like..."
Zhong Qiuchen, Mo Ansen, Xue Weiwei, Hai Yin, Wu You, Ao Yue, Zhong Qiuchen's group of people add up to only six people, and there were more than six screams in the mountains just now.
Sun Shunqiu looked at Liu Shien, "Let's go, there are zombies in this forest."
After entering this forest, he relaxed his tense nerves. He thought it should be safe here, but he didn't expect that there were zombies in this ghost forest.
Liu Shien didn't move, she listened for a while and said: "Let's go and have a look."
"What?" Sun Shunqiu was surprised.
"What if it's really Zhong Qiuchen and the others?" Liu Shien stood up, thinking that it might be Zhong Qiuchen and the others ahead of her, she couldn't wait.
Forget about Xue Weiwei, Hai Yin and Wu You, Zhong Qiuchen and Mo Ansen's words can greatly increase the survival rate of the team, and she is now a second awakened existence, which is different from before...
Liu Shien thought about the possibility of controlling Mo Ansen and Zhong Qiuchen. If she could control Mo Ansen and Zhong Qiuchen, no one in the world would be able to do anything to her, and she would no longer need to rely on Sun Shunqiu.
Sun Shunqiu was quite good, but compared to Zhong Qiuchen and Mo Ansen, he was completely incomparable.
Thinking of this possibility, Liu Shien speeded up, "Let's go."
Sun Shunqiu frowned and did not follow.
Liu Shien found it after walking a certain distance, and looked back.
"It's too dangerous." Sun Shunqiu disagreed, and while speaking, he glanced at Liu Shien's growing belly. He didn't want anything to happen to Liu Shien, let alone his child.
The woods are no better than the outside, even if there are zombies, he may not be able to find them in advance, and he doesn't have many bullets.
Liu Shien pursed her lips and remained silent, she looked straight into Sun Shunqiu's eyes.
Sun Shunqiu said softly, "I'm doing this for your own good."
"They have just been attacked. There may be zombies in the woods over there. We can wait until tomorrow morning to find them. It will be safer then."
"You can't risk your child, even if you don't think about yourself, think about him."
"Shut up!" Liu Shi'en looked down at his protruding belly, his face gradually became sullen, and there were black lines floating in his pupils.
Looking into those eyes, Sun Shunqiu, who was about to say something more, froze for a moment, his eyes were blank for a moment, and after that short moment, when Sun Shunqiu looked at Liu Shien again, his eyes were a little more anxious.
Sun Shunqiu quickly packed the things on the ground, put them in a backpack and carried them on his back. He strode towards Liu Shien, "How about it? Can you still go? We must find them as soon as possible."
Liu Shi'en remained silent, turned around and walked towards the direction of the voice in the forest.
Seeing this, Sun Shunqiu followed immediately.
Watching the two quickly disappear into the forest, a figure with long hair came out from behind a tree not far away.
Heine frowned slightly.
She and Sun Shunqiu do not have a close relationship, they only know their names. This kind of situation abounds in the exploration team. After all, most of the exploration team members in the park are mobile, and the exploration team often needs to increase or decrease personnel according to the size of the city to be explored. .
Sun Shunqiu is fairly well-known in the expedition team. Leaving aside his personality, he is still good at shooting, at least better than most ordinary people.
He can live too, and people with his personality can live better than anyone else.
Therefore, Sun Shunqiu almost became the captain when he first selected the team to go to the place of origin.
Hai Yin's impression of Sun Shunqiu was limited to this, and even more so for him, she didn't even know anything about Liu Shien, who was not even certified by him.
But judging from their previous relationship in the place of origin, Sun Shunqiu has always been in the dominant position, and Liu Shien is more like a poor little boy who was forcibly tied by his side. Heine really couldn't understand what the scene she saw just now one thing.
"Fake it?" Heine pursed her lips, and instinctively told her that the situation was not that simple. Liu Shien gave her a different feeling than before, not just because of her different attitude.
Heine glanced at the direction Liu Shien and the two left, and turned to look at the flying snake beside him, who was hiding his breath. The latter shook his head and looked very happy when he walked with his tail raised high, and he didn't care about what happened just now.
Heine rubbed the bridge of her nose and said, "We can't let the two of them catch up with Zhong Qiuchen and the others."
Teng Snake's joyfully shaking head stopped, and it looked at Heine with faint golden eyes in the darkness, "Oh?"
"Those two guys are not good people. Letting them catch up with Zhong Qiuchen is definitely not good." He Yin said, she didn't know Liu Shien, but Sun Shunqiu was definitely not a good person.
Soaring Snake's high-raised tail was pressed down, and the stupid energy it had just disappeared was replaced by ice-coldness. If you dare to touch its king, you will die!
003.
In the woods, Zhong Qiuchen led the people behind him to rely on his keen perception to avoid the zombies rushing towards the group of people behind him, and quickly opened the distance.
After running in the woods for nearly twenty minutes at a stretch, Zhong Qiuchen stopped only after making sure that those people would not be able to catch up with them for a while.
Seeing that Zhong Qiuchen stopped and the others followed suit, they looked back, their eyes full of wariness.
The screams quieted down after a while, followed by new screams. After six or seven screams in succession, the woods returned to darkness.
"How can there be zombies in this place?" Chen Xiaochen was puzzled, there was still some distance from the tourist area.
Chen Xia shook her head, she couldn't figure it out, but thanks to those zombies they were able to get rid of those people.
"It should be caused by the landslide." Zhong Qiuchen said.
The place where the landslide was not too far from the stockade, the landslide area was very large, and there must have been quite a lot of noise. It is not surprising that the zombies were attracted from the tourist area.
"It seems that we have to be careful in the future." Xue Weiwei said.
While speaking, several people turned their heads and looked around.
The environment in the forest was very bad, with the dense tree trunks and the darkness brought by the lack of moonlight, even if there were zombies around, they probably wouldn't be able to find each other before those zombies suddenly rushed over.
However, the forest is not always quiet. From time to time, there will be the sound of trembling leaves, creating an illusion that there are zombies everywhere in the dark.
Faced with this, a group of people's scalps were numb, and their nerves tensed because of what happened just now became more and more tense.
"Why did the tall and thin guy get mixed up with Liao Rufu and his men?" Xue Weiwei asked in a low voice.
He thought that after they escaped, Liao Rufu would definitely embarrass Wu You and the others, maybe their attention would be attracted by Wu You and the others, but he didn't expect that Liao Rufu and the tall and thin man would join forces to arrest them.
"Wu You probably told Liao Rufu about the machine and the contribution points. Only in this way can they cooperate with each other." Zhong Qiuchen looked at Mo Ansen.
Wu You knows the people in the paradise, and Liao Rufu needs the qualifications to enter the paradise and negotiate with the paradise. As long as they can get the machine, everything will be different.
Mo Ansen had already guessed this when he saw the tall and thin man in the crowd chasing them, which made his face very gloomy. If there were no zombies, he would have taken action just now, and what did he want to let those people in the village know? Things can be delusional and absolutely untouchable.
"That bastard..." Xue Weiwei gritted his teeth.
Not daring to stay longer, Zhong Qiuchen continued to take the lead and walked forward.
The village is two or three days away from the tourist area. They have been walking for a whole day, and the distance has been nearly half.
The further you go, the less people there are in the forest, and the surrounding trees become more lush. Some trees are even hundreds of years old, and even a few people can't surround them.
The tree is old, the trunk is thick, the crown is bigger and bigger, and the sunlight can't come in. This makes the ground below the forest almost barren, only thick rotting leaves. When you step on it, it's like stepping on some rotten skin. Feeling extremely uncomfortable.
"Why is it getting hotter and hotter?" After walking a little further, Xue Weiwei asked while wiping his sweat with a gun in his hand.
"It might be raining." Zhong Qiuchen looked up at the tree crown above his head.
There is no starry sky in the gaps between the tree crowns, and it is replaced by darkness. The rain in the midsummer season is like this, and it comes and goes quickly.
"Find a place to shelter from the rain," Mo Ansen said.
Zhong Qiuchen turned his head to look around, and chose a relatively high and flat place to take everyone there.
When they arrived at the place, they watched Mo Ansen put down the car. Before they could get in the car to shelter from the rain, the rain began to fall.
Big drops of rain hit the tree crowns above their heads, and then condensed from the tree crowns into larger raindrops, which made people feel scalp pain when the rain hit the top of their heads.
Several people quickly got into the car and took shelter from the rain in the car.
Big drops of rain fell on the canopy, from the canopy to the roof of the car, tick-tock, as if composing an alternative forest music.
The music is pleasant, if a little hypnotic.
Everyone sat in the car looking at the rain outside, and each of them started to feel sleepy within 10 minutes. They got up at one o'clock in the morning, and they almost didn't stop all day long. When I woke up, I was already sleepy and tired.
"You guys go to bed first, I'll go around the neighborhood to see if there are any zombies." Zhong Qiuchen said as he got out of the car.
Returning to the rain curtain, the rain hit quickly, Zhong Qiuchen shook his head, and quickly walked towards the surroundings.
Zhong Qiuchen didn't go far, and after quickly checking the surrounding area, he returned to the direction they came from, and he looked there in the rain.
With the concentration of his attention, the black in his pupils quickly spread and flooded the entire eye socket, and the golden pupils quickly emerged. With the changes in his eyes, everything in his perception gradually became clear.
They were already very far away from the place where they met the tall and thin one, and he could no longer see the situation there, but there was no one on the way they walked, and they did not catch up with the tall and thin one.
Withdrawing his gaze, Zhong Qiuchen shook his dizzy head, feeling the clear sense of hunger coming from his abdomen, and walked towards the direction of the car in the rain.
When he returned to the vicinity of the car, there was a figure in front of the car looking down at his feet.
In the foggy darkness, the figure bowed its head and turned its back to the car, motionless. The scene was a bit creepy.
Zhong Qiuchen was stunned for a moment before recognizing that the man was Mo Ansen.
Zhong Qiuchen stepped forward.
He got close to about five meters before Mo Ansen heard his footsteps. Mo Ansen seemed to wake up from a dream and looked sideways.
Zhong Qiuchen glanced at the situation in the car, Chen Xia and the others were already asleep, and Zhong Qiuchen looked at Mo Ansen again, wondering why he was in the rain here, even if Mo Ansen wanted to wait for him, he didn't need to be in the rain.
Mo Ansen didn't answer directly, but tapped the ground under his feet.
Zhong Qiuchen followed his movements and saw that there were thick rotting leaves everywhere under their feet.On the surface of the rotten leaves, the original withered yellow color of the leaves can be seen, and the lower layer is half-rotted black.
The leaf on the surface under Mo Ansen's feet was pushed away by him, and it became even more completely black.
In the blackness, a faint outline emerged, and Zhong Qiuchen stared at the outline for a few seconds before realizing that it was a skeleton.
The surface of the skeleton was only covered by leaves, and the flesh/body had decayed, leaving only a black skeleton.The bones were not buried deep, and it seemed that they should have been during the outbreak of the virus.
Mo Ansen was studying the skull of the skeleton just now. The skull was complete without gunshot marks, and the spine below the skull was also complete without obvious scars.
A zombie can only be "killed" if its head is destroyed or the spine connecting the head is destroyed. The owner of this skeleton is obviously not a zombie, and he should still be a person when he died.
This kind of deep mountains and wild forests is generally not visited by people, only people from tourist areas escaped, he escaped the pursuit of zombies, he did not die in the mouths of zombies, but died in the hands of humans.
After Mo Ansen looked at it again, the dead leaves around him danced without wind, covering the skeleton again.
He has no plan to call Xue Weiwei and the others. This kind of thing is not unusual. It is not surprising that people who can live to this day, except Zhong Qiuchen, have already become accustomed to it.
Covering the bones, Mo Ansen looked at Zhong Qiuchen, who was indeed frowning.
Looking at Zhong Qiuchen like that, the corners of Mo Ansen's mouth twitched uncontrollably. Although Zhong Qiuchen's six years in the place of origin were also very hard, those six years were also another kind of protection for him.
"In Paradise, this kind of thing is very common." Mo Ansen said in a voice that only two people could hear.
Zhong Qiuchen looked over.
"Every time the exploration team goes out to explore, there will be fewer people who come back, but God knows whether the zombies killed them or who killed them."
Zhong Qiuchen frowned, and he thought of Liao Rufu and his group. They used the excuse of rescue in the mountains to seek wealth and murder, and insisted that they also wanted to live.
Wu You calculated that they dragged them into the water in order to live.
Zhong Qiuchen lowered his head, he looked at the raindrops falling on the leaves, and he said after a long time, "...I don't want to go to Paradise anymore."
He wanted to go to Paradise at the beginning because he had had enough of the hopeless days when he was the only one left in the world. He wanted someone to talk to him, even if that person was a fool or a lunatic.
But now, he began to miss the days in the place of origin.
Mo Ansen seemed to smile.
Zhong Qiuchen looked up in astonishment.
Mo Ansen was indeed smiling, the corners of his mouth curled up on his rain-drenched face, and his eyes were cold and gentle.
Zhong Qiuchen's eyes widened slightly. At the beginning, when he negotiated with Mo Ansen and made a deal, he was very determined to leave the place of origin. He thought that Mo Ansen would be surprised, puzzled or angry when he heard his words now, but he only I never thought Mo Ansen would laugh.
Looking at Mo Ansen who was smiling happily, Zhong Qiuchen suddenly felt wronged, is he very funny?
Thinking about it, Zhong Qiuchen couldn't help being angry, angry with herself.
He is indeed funny. He spent so much effort to leave the place of origin, but he regretted it before reaching the paradise. Isn't that funny?
