The protagonist of all worlds

Chapter 45 Siege
More zombie groups are gradually gathering towards them.

The roar became louder and louder, and Jiang Bai could already see a few lone zombies emerging from the corner of the street.

Zheng Xudong was limping, and was driven into a van by several team members. The toes of his left foot had been corroded and rotted, and a bloody mess was exposed through the shoes, which looked very shocking.

Nine cars neatly lined up turned from the other side of the street and disappeared at the end of the street.

After half an hour.

Avoiding the zombie groups that had not yet fully gathered along the way, Jiang Bai and the others finally returned to the survivor base.

The iron gate was opened when they were still 100 meters away. A group of youths staying at the base, holding sickles and hoes, were responsible for cleaning up the individual zombies wandering outside the gate.

"Brother Xu!"

"Brother Xu, you are back, what good things did you find this time?"

"Lin Chengwei, did you bring back the toilet paper I asked you to bring me last time? These days, I always use leaves to defecate, and I almost have hemorrhoids."

A group of survivors from the base surrounded them, looking very happy.

At this time, an old man in his sixties who had just finished picking vegetables squeezed out from the crowd with a basket and a basket. He bent his body and squinted his eyes as if he was looking for someone in the line.

After a while, she walked over slowly, grabbed Wang Feifei's arm and said, "Little brother, have you seen my grandson Xiaohu?"

"Little Tiger?" Wang Feifei was taken aback when he heard the words, "Who is Little Tiger?"

"His surname is Zhan, his name is Zhan Hu, Captain Xu, have you seen him, where is he?" The old man turned his head to look at Zheng Xudong again.

Zheng Xudong, who was being helped out of the car, looked down at the old man standing in front of him. He didn't know what to say. Next to him, Lin Chengwei, the captain of the third team, said in a choked voice: "I'm sorry, Grandma Wu , Huzi... Huzi him."

He didn't know how to speak, tears and snot flowed down his face like a fountain in an instant, he desperately tried to wipe it off with his sleeve, but he couldn't stop it.

The vegetable basket in the old man's hand had fallen to the ground, her wrinkled face was full of blank expressions, her hands were tightly wrapped around Lin Chengwei's arms, and her tone began to tremble: "What did you just say?"

"Huzi died when he was searching for food."

"Sacrificed?"

It seems like the sky is falling.

After a brief daze, the old man immediately sat down on the ground.

She was crying, crying very sadly, her mouth was open and her broken teeth were exposed. Lin Chengwei wanted to go up to help her up, but he didn't know where to start.

Her wife passed away a few years ago, and his son and daughter-in-law also died in the mouth of zombies when the end of the world broke out. The 20-year-old grandson was the only hope that supported her until now, but now .
She felt that the whole world had become dark, and this moment, for her, was the real end of the world.

The team members around were crying. Zheng Chengwei wiped away his tears, and hurried over to open the trunks of the vans, pulled out several bags of grain from inside, and dragged them to the old man.

"Grandma Wu, Huzi brought these back to the people in our base."

"Yes, Grandma Wu, more than half of the food in this car was carried out by Huzi alone. He was killed by zombies in order to bring back more food for the people in our base!"

"Is this all brought back by Xiaohu?"

The old man staggered to the grain, staring at the bag in a daze.

After a while, she knelt down on the ground, hugged the two bags of food tightly in her arms, and began to cry.

The cry was extremely miserable and desolate.
After dinner, the life in the base was still as usual, and there was no change due to the sacrifice of Zhan Hu and several other team members.

Jiang Bai didn't know how he got back into the room.

His mind was full of images of the old man crying while clutching the food.

If he died, would anyone be sad for him like this?

His parents died early, and he lived alone since he was a child. He once stayed in an orphanage for a long time, but not long ago, the dean who was closest to him also passed away due to illness, and he was no longer in that world. No relatives.

Loneliness seemed to be his life partner.

So, what is the meaning of surviving in such a struggle?

Are you greedy for the beauty of the world?

He sometimes feels that it doesn't make much difference whether he goes back or not.

It's just that the life there is more comfortable than here.
In this way, my mind was filled with all kinds of intricate thoughts until I slowly fell asleep.

The next morning, he was awakened by the noise of the crowd.

"It's not good, brother Bai, there are zombies everywhere outside!" Wang Feifei ran in from the door in panic, looking at Jiang Bai who was sitting on the bed.

"Zombie?"

Jiang Bai rubbed his eyes, ran to the window, and looked down from the balcony.

Suddenly, outside the iron gate, the dense crowd of scalp-numbing zombies was continuously moaning and roaring. The survivors were all scared and hid in the apartment building, leaning out half of their bodies from the balcony to watch The army of zombies outside the gate trembled.

At the same time, downstairs, Zheng Xudong, who was leaning on a cane, had already appeared in the center of the community with members of the search team, seeming to be arguing about something.

"Go, go down and have a look."

Jiang Bai put on his clothes, and ran down directly with Wang Feifei and Su Gou.

"Captain, do you want to evacuate?"

"Evacuate? Where to evacuate, the surroundings are surrounded by zombies, we just want to evacuate, but we can't evacuate!"

"Are you just sitting there waiting to die, waiting here to die?"

They didn't know why so many zombies gathered overnight, which was much larger than anything they had ever seen before.Looking around, the zombies surrounding the community wall were so dense that they couldn't see the original appearance of the road.

How many zombies must have gathered outside?
Is it one thousand, or ten thousand?
Or more?
If it is said that what they encountered before was just a "group operation" of zombies, then this time, it is the so-called "corpse wave" in the true sense!
"Don't worry." Zheng Xudong calmed everyone's emotions: "Although there are a lot of these zombies, they shouldn't be able to break through the iron gate. At best, we can't go out to search for supplies these days. We brought back so much food yesterday. , we just need to stay in the room these two days and wait for them to dissipate slowly."

"The captain of the fifth team is here." Someone shouted at this time.

"Ginger White!"

The team members greeted each other warmly.

Since yesterday, their feelings and attitudes towards Jiang Bai have become completely different, and even the eyes they looked at him contained a trace of admiration.

After all, it has now become an era where the weak can prey on the strong, and the powerful can win the hearts of the people.

"Brother Xu is right. The zombies outside like to bark, so just let them bark as hard as they can. They won't be able to come in anyway."

"Everyone go back and rest, and tell other residents from door to door, try not to go downstairs for the next two days."

"Okay, Brother Xu."

"Let's go, let's calm down, these beasts don't have the IQ to come in from the outside through the wall."

Om-!
But at this moment, a sudden roar of a car sounded from outside the gate of the base.

"what sound?!"

Everyone was startled, and then turned their heads to look outside the door.

I saw a big blue truck full of boxes, running over a group of zombies, rushing towards the iron gate of the community at full speed!
