2013

The sky was clear. Dozens of people were sitting at the top of the container truck and looking at the barracks on the side of the highway. Six large cars slowly passed by, leaving the foreground in the distance.

The barracks were full of scars, a huge gap was opened in the wall, and the inside was empty, and all the zombies ran out.

Monk took someone to bring the last remaining weapons in the barracks back to the car, filling up almost half of the container car.

Holding a small box in his hand, Liu Ye looked over and over again. The conditions here were not sufficient, and the circuit was also wet in the torrential rain. The materials needed to be repaired to bring out the scene inside.

In the evening, the convoy set off again, along the highway, out of the province through the Nanling Mountains, all the way north.

"Dad, I'm going to die." In the darkness, a clear voice came.

"No." Zhang Huan whispered, "Baby, the antipyretic medicine has some side effects."

Cassia said: "I'm upset ..."

Zhang Huan leaned on a cardboard box. The space they lived in was very small. Most of the place was filled with flour, rice, cans and sundries. In the narrow space, half of Lin Musen's men were outside the carton. She and Liu Ye left women in the shelter from the wind.

Cassia was caught in the rain all night, and he started to have a cold and fever. Those who lost their fever and stunned, couldn't eat anything, and were uncomfortably nagging and moving in Zhang Huan's arms.

"Drink more water." Zhang Huan said, "Is it hot?" He touched the head of his adopted son, intending to distract him, and said, "Look at what Liu Ye has, what is it?"

Cassia shook his head and looked at the opposite Liu Ye: "Is the alarm clock?"

Liu Ye assembled a mechanical device under a dim flashlight, small like a disk.

"It's a sign of life detector," Liu said. "Meng Yun found it in the barracks. I adjusted it a bit, and used the temperature difference to achieve long-range life fluctuation detection."

"Can you find the zombies?" Mondell said.

Liu Yan shook his head: "It's different from infrared technology, it can only find people, and the coverage is about three kilometers."

Zhang Jian nodded and said, "Good stuff."

Cassia was silent again, his body was sweaty, but he clung to Zhang Huan's waist without letting his hands go.

There are three of them.

One: Enter Sichuan along the Sichuan-Yunnan Highway, leave the southern region, enter the Qinghai Plateau, and then move into Tibet.

2: Take the Gansu National Road to Xinjiang, where the weather is dry.

3: After leaving H province, go all the way north, bypass the densely populated Central Plains area, head towards Inner Mongolia via Ningxia, and find a place to stay near □□.

The more sparsely populated the place is, the safer it will be. The harsh wind and sand environment can make the zombies dry quickly, the connective tissues slowly lose their activity, the cell fluid dehydrates and evaporates, and they lose their ability to move. , Destroying their muscle activity.

This was the suggestion made by Fang Xiaolei during his lifetime, and it was also the escape rule listed in the Zombie Survival Manual. After long discussions with Liu Ye and Meng Yan, they felt that it was safest to enter Tibet.

Lin Musen insisted on his own way, rejected all the proposals, decided to sweep the town along the way, and hoarded materials to go north to establish his own exile base.

But the whole country was empty for a moment, and dead cities one after another appeared in front of their eyes, and they could not even find any call for help.

The journey was long and lonely. For a few hours, one morning, even for a whole day or two, there was no one on the road, and the life detector in Liu Ye's hand never sounded. Occasionally a few scattered zombies can be seen outside the barren highway fence, reaching out and scrambling, except for the blue glare sky and the still hot sun.

The carriage was very stuffy. When Zhang stopped at the side of the road for maintenance, Zhang Ye requested that a sunroof must be opened.

Many members of the team have already been ill-after a long day of rain, they began to travel long distances, and they were physically exhausted, even Lin Musen could not stop coughing.

Zhang Huan took the pulse to those in poor condition and said, "The carriage environment is not good and it is easy to spread diseases. You have to stop somewhere, clean it once, spray disinfectant, and take a good rest."

Lin Musen said impatiently: "It's okay for minor illnesses, they can hold up."

Zhang Huan said: "The virus started from a minor illness before the outbreak, and its origin has not yet been known. How can you confirm that it is not a common cold virus mutation?"

Lin Musen was persuaded that the convoy stopped at a gas station on the side of the road, and Meng Yun got out of the car first and led someone to search the vicinity.

"I heard the aliens talking to me." Jue Ming said.

Liu Ye just got out of the car and frowned when he heard the words: "What did the alien say to you?"

Cassia: "Unintelligible, buzzing ..."

Zhang Ye smiled: "Baby, that's just tinnitus caused by a cold."

Liu Xie couldn't help crying and let Xie Fenghua get out of the car. Everyone walked around at random, while Lin Musen covered his mouth and nose, and loudly ordered his hands to spray disinfectant.

"His face is not very good," Liu Yan commented.

"Needs conditioning." Zhang Huan sat on a box, holding Cassia in his arms, and Cassia was very sticky. Zhang Huan couldn't leave him at all times, as long as the two were okay, they held each other so tightly. At first glance, the onlookers were uncomfortable, but after a long look, they became used to it.

On the contrary, Liu Ye wanted to learn a little, and when he was okay, he let Meng Ye roll over, holding them like them. However, this move is really unlike what he can do.

There were several gunshots in the distance, and Meng Yun shot and killed three zombies and came over with guns.

Zhang Huan looked down at the map: "I want to go to a nearby city to look for some Chinese medicinal materials, coughing in the convoy, lung fire, cold wind ..."

Meng Yun said, "These are all minor illnesses. Immortality is already fatal."

Zhang Huan looked up: "If the minor illness is not cured, it will easily develop into a major illness, rheumatism, pneumonia, don't underestimate these, and arthritis. Moreover, Lin Musen's body is already sick."

"It's a bit dangerous to go to the city, and we don't have a car," Meng said.

"Isn't that a car?" Liu Zheng motioned them to see, and a small van with a broken door was parked in the distance, and there were two motorcycles on one side.

Meng Yun said: "Can't drive, no gas, no car keys."

Liu Yan said: "Search the zombie you just killed, maybe you can find the car key."

Meng Yun: "Are you playing an RPG game? It has been searched, no. Or you can read the file and kill the few zombies once again, and let the explosion rate go down?"

Liu Yan laughed, left the container truck, and went to the jeep at the gas station side to check. He filled the fuel tank, drew sideways into the driver's seat, pulled out a screwdriver to pry open the front cover, and pulled out two wires. Plastic skin, just touch it.

The snoring sounded and the car started.

"Let's go to the nearby city! Find some medicine! The medicinal materials in the reserve are too short." Meng Yan drove past the middle of the road and shouted at Lin Musen.

Lin Musen threw cigarettes in disbelief and murmured, "Coming back soon."

Lin Musen said: "It's okay to go, but I can only wait for you for ten hours. You bear all the responsibilities."

Meng Yun was a little uncomfortable when he heard this, and frowned, "Everyone needs medicine, it's not a matter of one person, you ..."

"Don't sting," Liu Yan said.

Zhang Jian said: "Go."

Meng Yan turned around and got off the highway.

Qiu Gao was very refreshing. As soon as the shipping compartment was opened, the whole person was quite comfortable. The doors were wide open on all sides, and the feeling of riding was very beautiful. Liu Ye pulled out a cassette and shoved it into the recorder.

The southernmost province of H is Qingyang.

The van slowly drove into the urban area, and the wind rolled along the street with broken paper, and the cardboard boxes wet by the rain and dried by the sun ran across the street. The cars hitting the electricity poles were burnt black.

Liu Ye turned on the life detector in his hand, and no survivors responded.

Meng Yun drove carefully across the outer edge of the urban area. This city is one of the largest cities at the junction of the two provinces of Nanling. They are located only in the high-tech development zone in the west of the suburb.

Anyone with a little brain will not stay in the city, and Liu Ye himself has no other ideas, but before leaving the south, he must first find the equipment he needs.

Meng Yun stopped the car by the side of the road, and the zombies seemed to have left here and went to look for food.

He and Zhang Huan got out of the vehicle to investigate along the shopping street, and finally confirmed that there were no large numbers of zombies, whistleed, and signaled that Liu Ye and Cassia could get off.

Cassia pushed the door and clanged. In the fast-food restaurant, Zhang Huan took a cloth to wipe the counter full of dried blood, shoved a broken arm under the counter, pressed the cash register as if to open it, and held his hands in front of the counter. "Welcome, what do you want to eat?"

Cassia laughed and looked up at the menu board above.

"Come a chicken, Kung Pao." Jue Ming said something.

"Oh no," Zhang Yan said seriously. "We are using trench oil, and you don't seem to have a cold. It's not good to eat too greasy."

Cassia said, "Does Cola have it?"

Zhang Huan: "Carbon carbonated soda is not good for health."

Cassia: "My dad used to say that too, huh, huh? Can green tea? Unification is OK."

Zhang Huan: "Don't mention it, do you know what's inside?"

Cassia: "?"

Zhang Ye pretended to have a ferocious expression: "It's all preservatives and essences! Didn't your dad tell you?"

Cassia: "..."

Zhang Ye was kind to him again: "Do you want tomato scrambled eggs?"

Cassia: "Well ... you can come a little, not too sour, how much is it?"

Zhang Yanbin politely said: "Today is a great guest for Zombie Day, no money, please sit down and wait, my love will be delivered to you immediately."

Zhang Huan went into the kitchen, scratched his head, and sat in position to look at the flyer.

After a while, the fragrance came from the kitchen, and he was dumbfounded.

"Can it still be used?"

"Gas is canned. Eggs are in the refrigerator. Although the power is off, it is not bad. Only half a month, tomato sauce and potatoes are also good." Zhang Jian opened the kitchen door with a kick, holding a plate, Come out with an apron.

"This." Cassia mixed noodles.

Zhang Huan: "The noodles are dry, you can cook them in the pot, and this ..."

Zhang Jian juggled three cups of coffee from behind the counter, a cup of hot milk, alcohol-fired water, sugar, milk powder, mate, and black coffee.

Cassia ate happily.

A large pot of tomato and egg noodles, four people sitting around a table, Meng Yun picked off his gloves and said, "No matter what, eat first."

"It's better than Mom's craftsmanship." Liu Ye nodded in appreciation.

Cassia said: "My dad can do everything, and also knows flavor preservatives or something."

"I see it," Meng Yun laughed.

The four were full, drank coffee, and contented, carrying a giant machine gun on their shoulders and strolling around the shopping street, asking, "What are you looking for?"

Liu Yandao: "Let's take a look along the way ... that shop was not ransacked, what is it for?"

Auto parts, electronic parts stores, hardware stores, Liu Ye took everything he could, and put boxes after boxes on the car, and finally added a wooden board to block it.

Zhang Huan pushed open the door of a store and said, "This is a Xinhua bookstore. The signboard doesn't know where it went. It hasn't been damaged and is very well preserved."

"That's great," Liu Yan said, "give me twenty minutes."

He found many needed books in the two-story bookstore, and Cassia squatted on the second floor to read comics.

Meng Yan walked out with a stack of fashion magazines.

Cassia said: "Hey, you didn't give money."

Meng Yan said something intimately: "Dear, stealing a book cannot be regarded as stealing. How can stealing a book be considered stealing?"

Liu Ye opened a copy of the discretization technology of mechanical mechanics in early 2011. The author wrote the name of the dean and couldn't help sighing.

Zhang Huan collected all theories of human medicine and Chinese medicine books, and packed them into the car.

"What else?" Liu Yan said: "You can leave."

Zhang Jian said: "Find another pharmacy."

The Pharmacy of Zhonglian University was ransacked, disposable needles, alcohol and iodine bandages were all gone.

Zhang Ye did not look at the empty shelves, jumped over the counter, and searched for the Chinese herbal medicine in the small drawer. He was relieved and said, "Great, Chinese medicine is all there."

He sorted all the medicinal materials into plastic bags, and finally packed four large and light sacks and threw them on the car. He also found many ginseng and other valuable medicinal materials, and stuffed Cassia in his mouth and held him Go outside.

"Liu Ye!" Cassia said far away.

Liu Ye was removing a circuit board from a street lamp without raising his head, "What?"

Cassia: "Your alarm is ringing!"

Liu Yan: "Shut it down!" Realizing that something was wrong, he turned sharply and rushed into the car. The green light on the life detector lighted up, alas, one after another.

Liu Yanmei looked dignified, holding the disc detector in the direction of rotation and pointing east.

The LCD digits are beating, showing the distance. There are signs of life 2.5 km away.

"To save?" Meng said.

Zhang Huan asked, "How much ammunition is there?"

Meng Yun inspected his arms and fired six machine guns: "Full, just loaded the bullets before coming out."

Liu Yan: "I think I should go back for support first."

Zhang Ye said: "But I don't think they can do anything, and Lin Musen is willing to save people, it's hard to say."

Meng Yun said: "He needs someone. Are you sure you can convince him, Liu Ye?"

Liu Ye shook his head, but it seemed a little risky, in case Lin Musen was impatient, or did not have the idea at all? Lin Musen seemed to have been frightened in the battle of the fall of the chemical plant. It can be seen from the lifeless escape that he did not want to stop along the way. His heart was full of fear, almost a little nervous.

"He will say." Cassia said: "Your alarm clock is broken, throw it away."

Jue Ming said something brilliant, this sentence made Liu Xie completely eliminate the idea of ​​asking for support. He said decisively: "Let's change to a lighter car, go over and look at it first."

The voice had just fallen, and there was an explosion in the distance.

Liu Ye said: "Zhang Ye brought the box I marked above, and I went to find a car."

Liu Ye found a Mitsubishi Jeep, and he shot the lock with a shot. Liu Ye lay down on the driver's seat with his upper body and pulled out the wires.

"Do you know what I'm thinking." Meng Yan guarded outside the car and asked expressionlessly.

Liu Ye replied: "You ... save it, have you thought about driving a famous car? Only old-style ones can use this trick, like Chevrolet, Cadillac and Mercedes-Benz luxury cars with anti-theft function, not to Just touch the two wires ... you can ... "

Meng Yun: "It's not what I want."

He poked Liu Xunlu's waist outside the car with a gun, and said, "Baby, when you are lying on your back, I really want to **** your butt."

Liu Yan: "..."

With a bang, Mitsubishi Jeep started, Liu Yan said: "You and Zhang Ye are sitting in front of you, come over to help me assemble things, get in the car!"

The jeep slowly moved towards the southeast of the development zone, and there was no sound in the distance after the explosion. The life detector was still on, and Liu Ye tucked it into the front seat back to fix it, flattened the back seat, opened the box, and threw out a pile of parts.

"□□ Give me one," Liu Yan said.

"You plan to dismantle the car, it will blow us up!" Meng Yan shouted.

Liu Yan said: "I promise not, fast, obedient."

Jue Ming said, "It just blows up and doesn't die."

Meng Yan: "That's just the TV show ..." After all, but still surrendered □□.

Liu Ye pried up the shell with a knife, biting the tape in his mouth, wrapped it around three or two times, and he motioned for the can.

He opened the tin box and fed the casserole with the luncheon meat. He poured the rest and poured a large box of iron nails into it. Using a can opener at the bottom, he cut out six petal-shaped iron slices to expand , Pinch out the tilt angle.

□□ Place it in the middle, pull the lead out, and carefully tie it to a mop rod.

Meng's car slowed down slowly, Zhang Jian took a deep breath: "God."

At the end of the road was a two-story building surrounded by hundreds of zombies. The iron gate was rattled and nearly half of it fell.

On the first floor of the building was a police badge—it was a police station.
