Doomsday housewives: the head of the family does not bow down

Chapter 146 Night Walk on the Riverbank
The woman walked around behind the wall, then grabbed some old garden hoses, and turned towards the outside of the wall.

The outside of the wall is also part of the factory area, but the building is relatively old and has been abandoned for a long time.

Mu Cang looked at the time. It happened to be 06:30 in the evening, four hours before the dormitory curfew.

She hesitated for a while, but still took a deep breath, followed the garden hose, and turned out.

Women are more familiar with this old area than the clean and standardized factory area.

She was cat-walking all the way, dodging left and right, very fast.

Mu Cang almost lost him several times.

This abandoned old building area is very large, and the square buildings inside are almost identical. Walking through it is like being trapped in a maze.

Even if Mu Cang wanted to retreat now, he might not be able to find the original entrance for a while, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to follow.

Half an hour later, the woman found another wall. This time, she climbed a tree, climbed onto the branch, and jumped out of the wall.

A full five or six meters tall, she didn't hesitate at all.

Mu Cang felt more and more strange, followed him up the tree, and then jumped out of the wall.

Jumping out of this wall, there is a narrow alley, with twists and turns, and some abandoned electric cars parked.

Most of the usable parts on the electric vehicle have been removed.

After Mu Cang quickly ran out of the alley following the woman, a river came into view.

A sparkling river, the last rays of the setting sun pour into the water, rolling with warm glow, looking peaceful and beautiful.

The woman turned down the steep slope and ran quickly along the river bank towards the north.

Only then did Mucang realize that she had already left the Heavy Industry Wheel Club. Although she didn't know where she was, she was obviously no longer in the factory area.

Looking behind her, she saw a dilapidated old-fashioned resettlement community, and she could still see the towering factory and office buildings behind the resettlement community from a distance.

This is a secret passage that is not guarded by the Heavy Industry Wheel Club!

Mu Cang was very pleasantly surprised and wished he could tell the news to others right away.

But the premise is that the woman must not be caught by the people in the factory, otherwise the secret passage will be exposed.

Mu Cang gritted his teeth, and decided to follow up to have a look.

The woman seemed to be in a hurry. She looked at her watch from time to time, and then ran forward panting without stopping at all.

She was very vigilant and did not cross the road. She always braved her body and walked on the outer embankment, with the rolling Rui River on one side and the steep lawn on the other.

Mu Cang climbed over the fence and followed her example, walking along the river embankment.

There were three or five zombies wandering nearby. Feeling the breath of a living person, they rushed towards the fence one after another. One managed to climb down the fence, but rolled directly into Ruijiang along the steep grass slope, and soon sank to the bottom.

Mucang frowned secretly. It seems that zombies are not amphibious creatures. So how did the piranha-like zombies that appeared in the ditch of the funeral home come to be?
The woman seemed to sense something unusual behind her, and turned her head suddenly——

Mucang was already flat on the grass slope. Fortunately, she was wearing green today and the surrounding light was dark.

The woman did not notice her figure and only thought it was the movement of the zombies she had attracted.

So she ran faster.

Mu Cang was a little depressed. This eldest sister must be a professional athlete. It was difficult for her to keep up with her hands and feet.

After chasing for half an hour, the sky became darker and darker.

Mu Cang could see the Zhenlong Bridge not far ahead, so he finally understood the woman's destination.

Could it be that she wanted to cross the bridge?

There are gates on both sides of Zhenlong Bridge, and there are guards standing beside the gates with live ammunition.

She didn't think that these little brothers with guns would get off work at night, right?
After the woman walked near Zhenlong Bridge, she still didn't go up.

The bridge head is right on the side of the road, the lights are bright, and the construction team is also working hard overtime.

The woman hid under the bridge, anxiously looking at her watch and looking at the situation at the gate.

The sound of construction was loud, and the whole bridge was trembling slightly.

Mucang huddled into a small ball and hid quietly in the shadow cast by the street trees.

Suddenly, she saw the river water beside the bridge hole bubbling and bubbling, creating bigger and bigger ripples.

The woman was concentrating on the direction of the gate. The violent construction noise covered up the abnormality in the Ruijiang River, and she did not notice at all.

Just as a piece of long black hair emerged from the tumbling water, Mu Cang's hand had already reached into his trouser pocket, and at the same time he quickly moved towards the bridge hole where the woman was!
puff-

Just when the thing in the water jumped out of the water and fell on the woman's back, the fork in Mu Cang's hand had already pierced through its temple!
The woman was so frightened that her scream was stuck in her throat, but she suddenly felt a light movement on her back.

She turned her head and saw a white and swollen face, all the five features were eaten away by fish, and there were only two rows of neat teeth on the rotten face.

Mu Cang took the zombie's long hair and threw it back into Ruijiang.

Then he looked at the frightened woman, waved his finger in front of her eyes, and said, "Hey, I'm back, don't be scared. It's a swimming zombie, not a water ghost. Don't be afraid."

She knelt down, dipped the gadget in her hand into the warm river water and rinsed it twice.

It was a small, palm-long fork, like a fruit fork, but larger.

The woman waited for a long time before she regained her composure and said, "Thank you, thank you."

"You're welcome."

Mu Cang pulled her back, retracted under the hidden bridge hole, and asked, "What are you doing here?"

The woman asked back, "Are you following me?"

Mu Cang thought for a while, then nodded without hiding anything.

The woman frowned slightly, "You are very curious."

Mu Cang smiled awkwardly, "Occupational... occupational disease. My name is Mu Cang, and you? I see that you are very familiar with that old house. Are you from Ningcheng?"

"My name is Yan Ling, and I'm from Ningcheng, and... I grew up in the family courtyard of the factory."

Mu Cang was very surprised, "Are you from that heavy factory? No wonder you appeared in the factory. Have you found your parents?"

Yan Ling shook her head, "My parents retired a long time ago and went abroad for vacation before the end. Now... I don't know what the situation is. I can enter the factory because of my profession."

"what occupation?"

"I am an engineer majoring in bridges, especially the maintenance of ancient bridges."

Mu Cang raised his head and looked at the location of the Zhenlong Bridge, and asked with some confusion: "Are you here to see the bridge tonight?"

Yan Ling shook her head and said coldly, "I'm here to collect the corpse."

A chill ran down Mucang's spine, "Who?"

There was no trace of sadness in Yan Ling's eyes, and she just said lightly: "My mother-in-law. I heard that my mother-in-law was thrown into the river beach. It was such a high distance and the bottom was pebbles. With her body and bones, there was no possibility of her surviving. Very small. I have to cross the bridge and go to the riverside to see if she is really dead. I should also collect her body for my husband and not let her body be exposed in the wilderness."
