Chapter 40

Zhan Xuyang did not rush to open the door, but opened the small window on the door.More than a dozen beams of light came from the darkness in front of the side, and there were at least six or seven cars by visual inspection. Their speed was very fast, and they would pass by the house where they were in just a few tens of seconds.Judging from the speed and driving conditions of these cars, it doesn't look like they are rushing normally, but more like running for their lives.

"Brother Xu?" Yu Nan asked in a low voice.

Zhan Xuyang made a silent gesture.

After those cars passed by, they heard the sound of dense footsteps coming. The level of density was definitely not something that dozens or hundreds of people could make.Listening to the sound, Yu Nan's scalp was about to explode.

"No, get in the car!" Zhan Xuyang growled, and pulled the latch first.Yu Nan hurriedly followed him out of the yard, and the zombies that could be seen spread all over the street, and some of them were running towards them.

No one opened the rear door, Tang Yuan followed Yu Nan and jumped into the co-pilot, before she could close the door, the car sped out.The unsteady glutinous rice balls were almost thrown out of the car. Yu Nan hurriedly hugged it, but almost got into it herself. After closing the door in a hurry, the car had already left the village from the other side.

Zhan Xuyang focused on driving with a solemn expression, while Yu Nan was busy calming her beating heart. After a while, she remembered that both of them were drenched in the rain.The water on Tang Yuan's body dripped onto the foot pads along the fur. If she hadn't been worried about lying on her body, she would have found a place to throw the water.

There was no time to take out the luggage left in the house. Fortunately, there was still a towel in the car. The two wiped it carelessly, and then drove the glutinous rice balls to the rear seat.

At night, the zombies ran faster than during the day, and the car drove for a while before they were completely shaken off.Worried that the horde of zombies would catch up with the scent, the two of them didn't dare to stop, and continued to drive forward sullenly.It wasn't until they estimated that they couldn't catch up for a while, that they took out the map and reconfirmed the direction. They were far away from their original destination.

I don't know if there will be a large group of zombies going there. The two of them simply changed the direction, slowed down the speed and drove forward slowly, planning to find a suitable place to stop and recollect some necessities. After resting enough move on.

Yu Nan and the others took a completely different path from the previous ones. They didn't expect to run into each other after going around five o'clock in the morning.Seeing that they had eight or nine cars, at first Yu Nan wasn't sure if they were the same group of people, but after listening to their conversation, she confirmed it was correct.

"Sister, are you also planning to go to the North China base?" The woman who asked the question was Liu Yan, who was one of the group. About 30 years old, with a very kind face.

Yu Nan and Zhan Xuyang were refueling at the gas station on the side of the road. Before they could fill up, the car in the lead drove over.There are twenty or thirty people, the oldest is five or sixty years old, and the youngest is seven or eight years old, with different accents, obviously not from the same place.The clothes on most of the people were dirty and torn, and the clothes of a few children were obviously not suitable. The cleanest ones were this Liu Yan, and Zhao Jun and Zhao Xiang brothers who were in the car with her.

Yu Nan glanced at Liu Yan and shook his head, "We are from the East China base, and we are looking for supplies."

"Really?" Liu Yan looked very happy, "I haven't been to the survivor base yet. I heard that the North China base is the best, so we are going there. Can you tell me about the situation in East China? If it is similar, we will It’s better to settle nearby.”

Yu Nan smiled wryly, "If you have the ability to reach the North China Base, it's better to go there. A few months ago, I heard that the North China Base can still maintain the standard of living before the end of the world. It should be slightly better than other bases." After a pause, she gave a rough overview of the current situation in East China.

"My God, people like us won't even have a place to live in the base?" Liu Yan asked in surprise.

"Almost, those who can turn in supplies can temporarily get a tent, and those who don't even have supplies can only sleep in the open." Thinking of the situation of the base, Yu Nan couldn't help but sigh.There are too many people who want to get something for nothing or opportunistically, and those who insist on getting income through labor are only a part of them. She even noticed several times that those people looked at the glutinous rice balls with a green light in their eyes.

"This is too exaggerated, so who else would go!" Liu Yan smiled, and cast a sideways glance behind her, "Are you joking with your sister?"

Yu Nan was a little upset when she heard this, and it seemed that Liu Yan didn't want them to go to the East China base on purpose.Originally, I thought that these people could escape with the elderly and children, and their morals should be pretty good, but they were disturbed by her, and the meager goodwill was completely suppressed.

"What are you talking about? Are you talking so happily?" Yu Nan was taken aback by the sudden voice behind her, and when she turned her head, she saw Zhao Xiang walking over with a smile on her face.He nodded to Yu Nan, "Yu Nan, right? I just chatted with your companion, and you can go with our convoy later."

"?" Yu Nan didn't understand what kind of magical development this was at all, and the two groups of people had different paths, so what's the matter if they walk together?It's not good to ask directly, she can only smile, "My friend has always been in charge of the route." She pointed to Zhan Xuyang, "You just need to discuss it with him."

When he turned around, he saw that Zhan Xuyang had finished refueling, nodded to Zhao Xiang and Liu Yan, and Yu Nan returned to the car. "Just now Zhao Xiang told us to go with the convoy, what happened?"

Zhan Xuyang obviously didn't care much about the purpose of that group of people, took a sip of the canned coffee that Yu Nan handed him, and then replied unhurriedly: "The brothers from the Zhao family said at the beginning that they were going to North China. I heard that after we came from East China, we wanted to visit East China first."

"But we still have to collect supplies, how can we have time to help them lead the way?" Yu Nan frowned.

"Why do you think they want to act with us?" Zhan Xuyang said, starting the engine.The people in the other cars had finished filling up and returned to their cars. "We need supplies, and they need them too. Regardless of how many of them there are, there are not many who can really use them. The reason for pulling you and me is just to have more combat power."

The corner of Yu Nan's mouth twitched, did she have the word "cumbersome" written on her face?Zhan Xuyang couldn't hear what she was thinking. The vehicle in front started off, and he stepped on the accelerator to follow.

Almost everyone in the convoy ran away nervously all night, and Yu Nan was so sleepy just after dawn. "Sleep if you're sleepy." Zhan Xuyang turned his face to look at her, and then turned back to look ahead.

"You haven't slept all night." She tried to hold up her eyelids, but they were closed again after a while.

"I'm used to it. I'm fine if I don't sleep for two days and two nights. Besides, don't you still have the coffee you made?"

"Hmm..." Yu Nan responded subconsciously, and the next second was already blurred.

The bumps of the car kept her in a half-dream and half-awake state, interspersed with some plausible dreams.Some were from her childhood, and some were from after she came to the world of books. Many forgotten memories were revealed at this moment, and they remained in this state for a long time. She let out a breath slowly and opened her eyes.At the same time, his hand sank, and an M4A1 carbine was in his hand.

"Hey! What a guy!" Before she could say anything, Zhan Xuyang had already seen it.For a moment, Yu Nan seemed to see some kind of light in his eyes.His expression has changed more and more. From the first meeting to the present, the image of Zhan Xuyang in her mind has changed a few times.

Putting aside the melancholy caused by the dream, Yu Nan smiled slightly, "I seem to be able to control some of the dreams, and next time I will find a way to get some bullets back." She opened the magazine and looked, and it was indeed empty.

"Good thing!" Zhan Xuyang seemed happier than she was, "M4A1 carbine, developed in 1988, has a barrel length of 145 inches, equipped with M203 grenade launcher, equipped with 556mm bullets and 40mm grenades. If possible, the grenade Prepare some too."

"No problem." Yu Nan nodded in agreement.

"Wow!" The glutinous rice balls at the back yelled, and Yu Nan stretched out her hand to touch its head twice, "You woke up too? I'll let you go out for a walk when we stop." After finishing speaking, she turned her head and asked Zhan Xu Yang, "Where did they go? Didn't they plan to find a place to rest?" She pouted at the car in front of her.

"It's almost downhill, I guess I should stop there for a while." Zhan Xuyang speculated based on the state of the group.

Yu Nan estimated the time based on the speed of the car, "I'll sleep again and get the bullet back." Then she closed her eyes.A gun without bullets is no different from scrap metal.

Yu Nan was woken up by Zhan Xuyang. She was going to put on a show, but unexpectedly fell asleep.Being confused, I almost forgot to take out the prepared bullets. Fortunately, I opened the system backpack before I closed my eyes and went to bed as a reminder, otherwise I might have forgotten it.After giving Zhan Xuyang the ammunition and the gun, Yu Nan got out of the car with the glutinous rice balls.

The rain that had been raining for a whole day and night did not know when it stopped, and small puddles were formed on the ground. If you stepped on the muddy ground, half of your feet could be sunk.Seeing her getting out of the car, Liu Yan greeted her from the front, "Yu Nan, come here."

"Why is there such a big dog in your car?" When she came to her, Liu Yan took her arm and asked affectionately.

Yu Nan frowned imperceptibly, "Well, they were raised before the end of the world." After saying something perfunctorily, he changed the topic, "What do we plan to do by parking the car here?" Where are they now? It is next to a dry river, and the long rainy days have accumulated a little rainwater in the river, forming a small winding stream.A few kilometers further along the river, you can faintly see the red roofs hidden among the trees, which should be a small village.

"I ran around all night last night. Everyone was very tired. If we continue to move forward, we must pass through the village in front. Now we don't know what's going on in the village, so let's stop here and take a rest." She Pointing to a very inconspicuous road sign on the other side of the road, "It says that there is an orchard for picking fruit inside. How about we go and have a look? Maybe we can find some fruits for everyone to taste."

"Sister Yan, can I go together?" An eight or nine-year-old girl ran over from the side and raised her head to ask.

Liu Yan smiled, stretched out her hand to pull the girl who was talking, and said to Nan: "This is Jiajia, don't look at her thin and small, she has great strength."

Jiajia's face was dirty, she looked a little thin due to malnutrition, and her eyes were extraordinarily large.Yu Nan raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "Hello, Jiajia."

"Hello, sister." Jiajia shyly hid behind Liu Yan.

Yu Nan showed a gentle smile, took out of her pocket, took out two pieces of fruit candies and put them in her hands.

"Thank you sister." Jiajia held the candy and thanked her obediently.

Yu Nan touched the top of her head, and said to Liu Yan: "Take her with you, and I will bring glutinous rice balls, there should be no danger."

"Okay." Liu Yan agreed.

After greeting Zhan Xuyang, the three of them walked into the country road indicated by the road sign.
