{MTL} ✅[Space] Rebirth in the end of the world

ch 4:Temporary Residence

 After the car drove out of the zombie-intensive area, Zhuo Yuan took the initiative to report to his home: "I'm Zhuo Yuan, from T City."

Xu Tianxing smiled at him warmly: "Thank you, brother! If it weren't for you today, we would I'm afraid it's hard enough to escape."

Zhuo Yuan smiled, thinking that it was you who saved. Just as he was about to answer, he accidentally saw Qi Shaoyang's dark and deep eyes in the rearview mirror, and his heart jumped suddenly, almost unable to grasp the steering wheel.

Qi Shaoyang gave him a slight nod, then frowned and asked, "Is it the same in other places?" When it came to

this topic, Zhuo Yuan had to tell them the seriousness of the matter, so he solemnly said: "All I have seen along the way are zombies. , fortunately, my car has good performance, otherwise, I would probably be surrounded by a large number of zombies."

"Are you sure this thing is a zombie?"

"...The eyes are red, the nails are long, the body is black blood, and there is no heartbeat. , does not breathe, eats living things, especially human beings, never tires, the most important thing is that the person or animal bitten will also mutate in a short time. The head is the only weakness."

Zhuo Yuan knew that they already had The answer is just too unacceptable.

There was silence in the car, save for the fat woman's low sobbing and her husband's teeth chattering. Having encountered such a terrifying monster, no matter how powerful and brave people are, they will be afraid, not to mention that they are just ordinary people.

The world has completely collapsed, but few people realize this. They still have time to be happy that they are alive and have the energy to grieve for their family and friends who died. But it was far from expected that what awaited them would be a life-or-death tomorrow of complete despair.

Following Xu Tianxing's guidance, Zhuo Yuan discovered that the freezer was where they were hiding. The place itself is remote, and it is full of corrupt corpses. Even if there are a dozen people hiding inside, there are few zombies in the radius.

A few people cooperated to kill several zombies that jumped out from the dark corner and rammed the car, and finally returned to the freezer as the fat woman couldn't restrain her crying louder and louder. The entire freezer is a two-story building with an underground garage. It takes seven or eight minutes to see other buildings by driving in all directions along the small road at the door.

To the east of the freezer is a large field where various grains and vegetables are grown. It is said that there is a small village on the other side of the field. People often walk and work in the field on weekdays, but now there is no one in sight.

Zhuo Yuan found that they were very clever. He moved dozens of corpses from the morgue and stacked them around the small building. After being exposed to the sun, there was a faint stench, but it was this stench that covered the breadth of the living and made the zombies less so. easy to spot.

Under the warm greeting of Xu Tianxing, Zhuo Yuan was introduced to the people living on the second floor. Among them is a freezer guard, an old man in his 60s who is smoking a dry cigarette by the window; a family of three who passed by here when they escaped. aged looked at everyone timidly; there were four college students who were rescued by Qi Shaoyang and the others on their way to the freezer, two men and two women, and the four of them greeted him with a smile. In addition to Qi Shaoyang, the owner couple and Zhuo Yuan who had just been rescued from the small supermarket, there were fourteen people in total.

Seeing Zhuo Yuan's exhaustion, Zhu Zikang was about to take him to the spare room next door to rest, but Xu Tianxing grabbed him by the shoulder and led the way with a smile.

Don't ask him why he is so enthusiastic about Zhuo Yuan, he can't explain it himself, he just thinks that this person is very appetizing to him, and at first glance, he can become a brother.

Zhu Zikang rolled his eyes behind him, completely different from the cold look in the car just now. Looking back, he saw that Qi Shaoyang tilted his head towards him, and followed him back to the room shared by the three of them in a tacit understanding.

They all lived in morgues. Without beds, they dismantled several desks in the office, leaving only wooden boards. They would fall asleep with several layers of white cloth covering the corpse.

This southern city was already very hot in June, and although there are still water and electricity, no one feels relieved. Coupled with the peculiarity of the morgue, the people who temporarily lived here seemed very lifeless.

The two sat on the ground, Zhu Zikang raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you think of Zhuo Yuan?"

"He also has special abilities, maybe he controls the wind?" Qi Shaoyang was not sure. When Zhuo Yuan came to help him, he clearly felt that the airflow around him had undergone a huge change, but he didn't see any unnatural objects appearing. He only felt that the wind was whistling all over his body, but the wounds on the zombies were cut by sharp blades. the way it was.

Moreover, Qi Shaoyang noticed that if the space in the supermarket was not too narrow, and he was also fighting zombies, in order not to accidentally hurt him, Zhuo Yuan's control was much worse, otherwise, he should be able to hit a hit. "He is very strong, much stronger than me, and maybe he has preserved his strength."

Zhu Zikang was a little unbelievable. In his opinion, Qi Shaoyang's special ability is already very unbelievable. That Zhuo Yuan is more powerful than him? "If it's as you said, this person should either be drawn over or let him leave early." If the other party has malicious intentions, they may not be able to resist.

Qi Shaoyang pondered for a moment and said, "Let's observe clearly first." After speaking, he walked out of the room and took out the things they brought back from their backpacks and distributed them to everyone. Instant noodles, ham sausage, canned food, compressed biscuits, and bagged chicken feet and wings are all things that are easy to produce a feeling of satiety, as well as a small number of daily necessities and a few large bottles of mineral water.

On the contrary, they took a lot of disinfectants, insecticides and mosquito coils. After all, the environment in their place was too bad. In order to prevent someone from getting sick, they also took back some medicines.

When they went out, they drove away a car in the parking lot. Who would have guessed that the car had been grabbed by the zombies and had a deep and long opening? The four front and rear glass windows were also shattered, and the front and rear of the car were smashed. shape. Originally their destination was a big shopping mall, but their car blew out near the small supermarket. They had no choice but to choose a small supermarket nearby. If it wasn't for Zhuo Yuan's help, they might have lost their manpower.

After all, even in places far from the city centre, there are still a lot of zombies.

The rest of the people took the things, and anxiously opened the can of biscuits and chicken feet while saying thank you, waiting to gobble them up. They fled in a hurry, brought only a small amount of food, and were already very hungry.

The smell of the food attracted the proprietress of the supermarket who had just settled in, and she shouted furiously, "Who allowed you to eat it?! These are my things! Hurry up and return them to me!" She rushed over to grab it.

"Who said it was yours? Did you write your name? Besides, if Brother Qi and the others didn't save you, do you think you would still be alive?" The two male college students retorted at first, glaring at each other with the food in their hands and the proprietress.

The proprietress pointed at them and cursed: "Brother Qi saved us, so of course, we can eat it, why do you people eat it? It was all bought with my money! If you want to eat, go out and find it yourself! So many big men still Free food, shameless!"

After her hysterical scolding, everyone present changed their faces. With a high standard of living on weekdays, maybe no one cares about these canned instant noodles. Which family doesn't make chicken, duck, and fish in a different way? Now that they are being abused for such a little junk food, everyone's self-esteem has been damaged for a while.

But let them go out to find food? How can the people who finally escaped from the mouth of the zombies have such a long life?

Seeing that they stopped talking, the proprietress became even more flamboyant, viciously grabbed the unopened food, raised her slender eyebrows and said, "Don't say I'm impersonal, I'll eat it for you when I open it, and remember me in the future. Good." Said, picked up the things and walked back to her room.

Everyone blushed and couldn't speak. The two male college students threw the instant noodles out of their hands in frustration, stepped on a few feet and cursed a few words "something" before slamming out the door. The faces of the other two female college students were also very ugly. They faced the food in front of them for a while, then gritted their teeth and dropped their chopsticks and left.

The young couple quickly relented and coaxed the frightened daughter to continue to fill her stomach. If she didn't have enough energy, how could she protect her daughter? Face no matter how important, can life be important?

The old guard ate in silence without changing his face. Although he is already a person who has stepped into a coffin, since people are still alive, they have to live well, right? Embarrassing yourself for face and self-esteem, it is only those young people who do it...

Qi Shaoyang and Zhu Zikang, who watched this farce from beginning to end, were motionless. Their principle is that when they encounter it, they can save it if they can, and help if they can. As for whether people appreciate it or not, it is not within their scope of concern.

At this moment, Xu Tianxing walked in carrying a large white cloth bag, saw the instant noodles on the ground at a glance, and looked at Zhu Zikang with an inquiring look. Then he laughed happily, and put the bag on the table and opened it for everyone to see: "This is what Zhuo Yuan asked me to carry from his car, saying it was the accommodation fee. Oh, and there are beef jerky and pickled chicken feet, too. Why didn't I see it just now? Come and share a point, but it's all good stuff." The young couple ran over immediately and picked up a bottle of Want Want Milk, which is my daughter's favourite drink! "Look at Yin Yin, it's Want Want Milk." Liu Xiu beckoned to call her daughter. Hu Ming quickly pulled the tab and put the bottle into her daughter's hand. The two were very happy when they saw her daughter drinking full of milk and burping contentedly.

Since fleeing, the husband and wife have been unable to hold on several times, but when they think of the good daughter who needs protection, they have a strong ability to survive.

After picking out some useful things, Qi Shaoyang and the three went back to the room, ignoring how to distribute the rest. The time is less than 11 pm, but without any entertainment facilities to pass the time, everyone can only go to bed early.

Once back in the room, Zhu Zikang asked, "Tianxing, what did Zhuo Yuan tell you?"

"It's nothing, just let me take the things and divide them up, saying that he has enough food in his backpack. I didn't ask anything else, so don't be in a hurry. By the way, he has special abilities, right?"

"It should be, the boss also said that Zhuo Yuan is better than him."

Xu Tianxing's eyes widened exaggeratedly: "Isn't it? Then we don't have a lot of help! Haha..."

Zhu Zikang rolled his eyes again: "I don't know if it's an enemy or a friend."

"Of course, it's a friend! Otherwise, what do people think of us? Are we handsome? I will be early in the morning. Just ask him, it would be great if he could accompany us to D City to find Zifeng!"

As soon as Zhu Zikang, who was about to refute, heard the name of his younger brother Zhu Zifeng, he became very worried, and did not know what happened to his younger brother? Could it be... Now that there are so many zombies out there, it can be said that they have little hope of going to D City to find someone. If Zhuo Yuan can be together, they will be more confident, right?

In the incomparable worry and entanglement, Zhu Zikang did not sleep all night.
