System into the end of the world

Chapter 30

I ate dumplings stuffed with leeks in the morning on the first day of the first day of the lunar new year, and it was supposed to be New Year's greetings, visits, and relatives.Yu Nan and the others had no relatives to associate with, but still followed the custom, they sat down at the neighbors' homes and paid New Year's greetings.Yu Zhensheng's vacation is only four days, from New Year's Eve to the third day of junior high school, and he has to go back to work from the fourth day of junior high school.Nothing to do, Yu Nan and Zhan Xuyang began to discuss to take the task out of the city.

Although Yu Zhensheng was very worried, he also knew that keeping them at home would only harm them.When he went out in the morning, Yu Nan and Zhan Xuyang were lying on the table studying the map.

Huichuan City, where the East China Base is located, is a prefecture-level city with six county-level administrative districts under it.The base is located on the outskirts of Huichuan City, next to Shang County, and radially radiates to the other five jurisdictions.Yu Nan and Zhan Xuyang set the first battle location to be the nearest Shang County, and then expanded to the entire Huichuan City, and even further places.

"Let's go." Zhan Xuyang got up and took the map away, picked up the dagger beside the bed and fixed it on his leg, and took a long-handled ax from the door and swung it. "I've already told Uncle Yu that we're leaving today. Go get a gun in a while and buy some bullets, just in case."

"Wait for me for 2 minutes, and get some food." Yu Nan took off the padded vest on her body, picked up the coat that was draped over the chair, and changed into it.

"Waiting for you and Tangyuan downstairs, I'll start the engine first and warm up the car."

Zhan Xuyang left the room just in time for her to take things from the system backpack in a fair manner.Water is a necessity, and there is also a car-mounted mini rice cooker, which can be used for boiling water and rice.I brought a few simple and easy-to-eat convenience foods. After thinking about it, I added a small bag of rice. If I had more time, I could cook some porridge or rice.Finally, there are jerky, chocolate, salt, and two 100ml bottles of Erguotou. The bits and pieces are packed in a backpack, and there is actually a big bag full.

After checking her belongings, Yu Nan took a deep breath, served glutinous rice balls, locked the door and went downstairs.

The car was parked behind the building, and when Yu Nan passed by, Zhan Xuyang opened the front cover of the machine and leaned in with his entire upper body, not knowing what he was busy with.

"What's wrong?" She walked over and asked.

"I haven't opened it for a few days, so I have to check it before going out, or what if the car breaks down on the way." Zhan Xuyang checked the parts one by one, and if there was any loose part, he tightened it with a special tool. "It's cold outside, you get in the car first." He looked up at her and continued with his previous work.

Yu Nan responded, opened the door first and put the glutinous rice balls on the back seat, and she sat in the co-pilot by herself.The schoolbag is placed under the feet, so that it is convenient to access the contents at any time.

After more than ten minutes, the water temperature had already risen, and Zhan Xuyang returned to the car feeling cold.I rubbed my hands, wiped them clean with a wet paper towel, shifted into gear and stepped on the accelerator to set off.

First go to the military building to go through the formalities to borrow the gun, but Zhan Xuyang didn't let her get out of the car, and entered the building alone with the card in his mouth.Not long after, I brought back a handful of May Fourth and dozens of bullets. "I hope our luck will be better and we will get some supplies, otherwise this trip will be a big loss." Zhan Xuyang threw the things to her and started the car.

It was a little early, and there were very few people wandering outside.Several construction sites that needed cement pouring could not be constructed because the temperature was too low, and the construction would not continue until the middle and late February. Only the construction of the simple building was restarted, in order to allow more people living in temporary tents to move into the building as soon as possible. Inside, against severe cold.

Most people have nothing to do, they stay in their houses and do not go out. Occasionally, they can see white smoke coming from the roof of a house.

When passing the gate, two cars were preparing to enter the city and were being questioned.Hearing that Yu Nan and the others were going out, the sentry opened the door without asking any questions and let them go.

A mist hangs in the morning air, making the distant scenery seem unreal.After driving for a while, the car entered the county road, and the buildings on both sides of the road became denser and taller.Because it is close to the base, and the army often cleans it up, they haven't seen a single zombie so far. Instead, there are bold residents who still live here.

"There are people living here, so there should be some supplies, right? Do you want to go down and have a look?" Yu Nan asked this question because she hadn't arrived in Shang County yet.

"More or less, there will always be a point. People who specialize in collecting materials will not come to these places, but go to large supermarkets or warehouses where there are a lot of materials. They don't pay attention to these small troubles Most of them have been swept by wandering people or local people for countless times, and the things on the surface have been taken away by people, and the things hidden in the dark can't be found without that luck."

Zhan Xuyang turned the steering wheel, bypassed several cars that had collided with each other and were crowded together, and continued: "If you have time to try your luck here, why don't you just look for it on the road to see if there is a small grocery store or a For restaurants, hotels, etc. that have not been looted, the possibility of finding supplies is relatively high."

"En." Yu Nan nodded in response, paying attention to the buildings on both sides while paying attention to the road ahead. "I don't know how many people have visited the shops on the side of the street. It's just... well..." She counted on her fingers, "It's only four or five months, and there will be less and less food in the future. Planting the land, I don’t know what to eat in the future.”

"Now it's only because the incident happened suddenly that the country was unprepared. Everything will be fine when it settles down." Zhan Xuyang is not worried about this.

"I hope so." Yu Nan said perfunctorily, but actually he was not too optimistic.Limited by the lack of information, she doesn't know how many people will be infected and become zombies when the virus spreads, but judging from the situation of her aunt and Yu Rui, it is not as written in many novels that they will stand up immediately after death. Instead of rising up as a zombie, there is a buffer period.

During this buffer period, it is enough for the people around to make more preparations. Even if you don’t have the heart to cut off their heads, it’s always okay to lock them up with ropes or chains, right?But why did it spread to the point where it got out of hand, and even needed to abandon the city and build another base?Perhaps this is the so-called irreversibility of the plot of the novel, or there are other unknown factors that lead to this result, but no matter what it is, in Yu Nan's view, it may be difficult for human society to return to the state before the end of the world. .

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt something pressing against his arm, and turned his head, but it was Tangyuan poking his head over.

"Huh?" Seeing her turn around, Tangyuan immediately thumped and squeezed forward from between the two seats.

The low mood was disturbed by it, and all the sadness was gone.With a flutter, Yu Nan pushed it back, "Stay honestly behind, don't make trouble!" After she finished speaking, she remembered something, and turned her head to ask Zhan Xuyang, "Brother Xu, do you think glutinous rice balls can really kill zombies?" ? It hasn’t done this job before, so if you don’t go up, it will be treated as a piece of meat, what should you do if it is bitten by zombies?”

After staying together for a long time, she almost forgot the original intention of raising glutinous rice balls. After she had feelings, how could she still calm down and only use them as a tool to kill zombies.Besides, even if the glutinous rice balls have mutated and are very smart, after all, they are still far behind human IQ.Its age is converted to human beings, but it is still a child, and has not participated in field survival training. She can't tell the facts and reason to the glutinous rice balls, and teach it what to do.

She was worried, but Zhan Xuyang laughed, "Don't worry, don't underestimate the instinct of animals. In fact, compared with them, human's instinct to seek good luck and avoid bad luck is the most degraded." .If Tangyuan is a small dog like Chihuahua or Jingba, I would not suggest that you take it with you. Don’t forget, it has a black back and has wolf genes in it.”

Yu Nan met Shang Tangyuan's innocent little eyes, sighed, and patted its head lightly, "Be smarter, don't turn into a smelly zombie dog, then I don't want you. "

Tangyuan tilted her head and let out a "woo" and licked her face.

"Idiot." Yu Nan muttered, and then heard Zhan Xuyang calling her. "What's wrong?" She turned around.

"There's a gas station up ahead, let's go and have a look, it's just for you to practice your hands." He replied.

Yu Nan took a closer look before realizing the gas station he was talking about.Because of the fog, she didn't realize until now that the distance was only a few hundred meters away. At the same time, she also vaguely saw the figure dangling near the gas station. "I hope it's not some messy little gas station." She subconsciously touched the knife by her leg.

"Take off the load first." Zhan Xuyang reminded.

"Oh, oh..." Yu Nan hurriedly went to untie the sandbags on his hands and feet.While speaking, the nearest zombie was already very close. Hearing the sound, zombies began to run over here.

"Take your weapon and get out of the car!" Zhan Xuyang slammed on the brakes, opened the door and jumped out of the car.

The speed of the zombies was faster than expected, and the feeling of killing zombies with a gun was completely different when they faced each other directly.When Yu Nan got off the car, Zhan Xuyang had already chopped down a zombie.She took a breath, stood in place with an ax in her hand, and stared at a female zombie running towards her.

5 meters... 3 meters...

Yu Nan held the handle of the ax tightly and was about to lift it up when a black shadow rushed out from behind her.I didn't see what was going on, but when I came back to my senses, the zombie had been dismembered into several pieces.Yu Nan opened his mouth, and looked at the glutinous rice balls wagging his tail at her, dumbfounded, "Okay, okay, I'll give you an extra meal tonight."

Zhan Xuyang dealt with the zombie in his hand, turned his head and laughed when he heard the words, and cut off the head of the undead zombie. "Yu Nan, you've been outcompeted by Tangyuan, come on!"

That's right, just for a while, Tang Yuan rushed to the front and killed a few more zombies, but none of them was left for her.At least within sight, there are no zombies for the time being.

"Hey, what's this called?" Yu Nan looked down at the ax in his hand that didn't see blood, and then at the glutinous rice balls that had put away their sharp claws and ran back, smacking their lips a bit uncomfortable.

"Okay," Zhan Xuyang had seen enough of the jokes, "get in the car first, and go see if there is any gas in the gas station."

Yu Nan waved his hand, "It's just a few steps, and Tangyuan and I can walk there. Maybe we will meet zombies again, and we can clean them up by the way."

"Follow you, be careful." Zhan Xuyang warned, then turned and returned to the car.

There are more than a dozen scattered zombie corpses in the gas station, some are slightly intact, and some have been chopped up with broken intestines and missing arms and legs.Yu Nan took glutinous rice balls to search for zombies and supplies, Zhan Xuyang parked the car next to the gas pump and tried to refuel.

There is a small supermarket inside the gas station, the door is open, and two panes of glass are broken.Yu Nan didn't see any zombies when he went in, and of course he didn't see any real objects or water. There were only a few daily necessities left in a mess on the shelves.She didn't dislike it either, she found a stack of plastic bags from behind the cash register, collected toothpaste, toothbrush and other things that could be used, and finally didn't even leave any plastic bags that were not used, so they packed them together and carried them in hand.

There is a door at the back of the supermarket, which is half open, and the inside is so dark that you can't see clearly.When I came to the front, with the light from the outside, I could see that the inside was originally a small warehouse, but now it was almost ransacked.Pack it up and take it away, but this time there are a lot of things, but she can't carry them by herself.

After carrying a few bags, put the rest on the ground first, regardless of the glutinous rice balls wandering back and forth, Yu Nan went back to the car first. "How is it, do you have any oil?" she asked.Zhan Xuyang was not in front of the car, but fiddled with another tanker.

"I don't know if there is any, but the machine hasn't been damaged, so it should be still there. It's a pity that if you don't insert the card, you won't be able to dispense gas. The cards on the machine are all empty. You can go to the toll gate inside to see if there is any money left. card."

"Oh." Yu Nan put all the things in the trunk, went back to the small supermarket to get the ax first, and then went to the toll hall.Tang Yuan trotted behind her, never leaving her.

The toll room is usually locked, and only a few windows are left for outside work, and the salesperson sits inside.At this moment, the door was wide open, which saved her from thinking about how to unlock it.There is no food inside, so it is kept relatively clean, at least except for dust, there is no blood stain.

The keys of many cabinets and drawers were inserted in the keyholes. She opened the doors one by one and looked. She did find a lot of gas cards, but she didn't know if there were recharges in them.Putting them into his pocket together, Yu Nan hurried out and handed all the cards to Zhan Xuyang, "I only found these, I don't know if they can be used."

"You try it with me in the machine next to you. Keep the cards with money, and throw away the ones without money." Zhan Xuyang said, reached out and took about half of the amount, and stuffed it into the card after seeing the pros and cons mouth.

Yu Nan didn't hesitate, took the rest and walked to another machine, trying one by one. "Hey, this one has money." The numbers that popped up on the monitor made her jump up happily.

"Give it to me first, and I'll refuel first. You go ahead and try, keep what you can use, and you will need it in the future."

"Okay." Yu Nan became more interested.Thinking about it, most people’s thinking is to pick up the oil gun and refuel directly. No matter where the oil card is collected from at first, it will always be used up.When latecomers find that the oil gun does not produce oil, they will naturally not consider that it is because the card has no money, but will only think that there is no oil.Then go to the tank truck or the idea of ​​a spare fuel storage tank. Maybe in the end, the place with the most fuel is the fuel tank connected to the fuel dispenser.Fortunately, most gas stations are equipped with underground oil tanks. If they are placed on the ground, they will probably be left without a drop of oil.

She couldn't help but think about refueling when she migrated before. Didn't she also realize that the refueling machine needs to insert a card to dispense fuel?Shaking his head, he laughed at himself for thinking too much, why should he worry so much about things that have long passed.

The dozen or so cards that were put together with the rich card just now were obviously overvalued. After trying them out one by one, I found that Zhan Xuyang had already filled up the fuel and was also testing the cards.Yu Nan went over to give the card to Zhan Xuyang and put it in his pocket, "There is still something in the supermarket, I'll go and get it out."

"Go." He nodded.
