After discussing the plan, the group of people took the supplies they got from the supermarket at the intersection and turned carefully onto the main road.

However, they had not been walking for long when they were surprised by the zombies swarming at the subway entrance two hundred meters away. There were twenty or thirty of them. With their current weapons and force, it was impossible to guarantee their escape.

.

Gao Yun and Long Ge exchanged looks several times and finally chose to retreat.

Their equipment is too poor. The strongest weapon is the ax in Long Ge's hand. The others are just a mess of metal sticks tied to knives, baseball bats, crowbars, and kitchen knives... And except for Long Ge, everyone else is...

The first time I left the community and faced zombies, it took almost two people to kill one zombie. It was impossible to fight.

A group of people stepped back lightly and retreated in fear.

I don't know if it was unlucky, but on the way back they encountered a small wave of zombies, about seven or eight of them. They should have been hiding in an alley somewhere, and they were lured out after smelling the movement here.

Everyone was carrying things in their hands, and coupled with their physical exertion, and fear of making too much noise from the zombies on the road outside, it became more difficult to fight than before.

Fortunately, no one was injured and returned to the community without incident.

When everyone returned to the community, they were covered in stinking stains. However, before they could put down the supplies they had found and take a good rest, anxious residents inside the community had already come out of the building one after another, waiting for them to distribute food.

Already.

You Xi also walked out of the unit building, not for food, but because she wanted to ask Chen Ya and others about the situation outside.

This trip didn't go well, not many things were found, and Brother Long and the others felt unhappy.

"Are you really going to give the food to them?" He pulled Gao Yun aside and wanted to talk to him about this matter.

Because he admired Gao Yun as a person and knew that he was very skilled and calm in situations, many people in the community were willing to follow him, so he always wanted to make Gao Yun a teammate.

The end of the world has just begun. Brother Long knows that he suffers from the disadvantage of numbers, so he wants to expand his team as soon as possible.

"As promised before, if there are no young adults in the family, all elderly people over fifty years old will receive them." Gao Yun understood what he wanted to say.

"The community can only be guarded for a while. We can't all stay here forever. Do you plan to take these people with you when you flee in the future?"

"If we can get a bus." Gao Yun frowned, "Or a bus can also be used."

"Aren't you, little brother Gao Yun? I heard your brother Long's advice. The world has changed and you can't bear it. I understand that you want to help them and save people. But your power alone is limited, and you can't save everyone.

Those brothers who believe in you and are willing to follow you out to fight are the ones you really need help."

Gao Yun didn't speak. Brother Long felt that it was rare for him to speak his heart out to someone, but the other person didn't appreciate it. He felt very unhappy. When he turned around, he saw that there were still people in the food line who were dissatisfied and questioning,

Suddenly it became very angry.

"Why are there only some potato chips, melon seeds and drinks? I only gave two apples, which is too little. This little thing is not enough for a meal!" Tan Qian frowned, and her dissatisfied expression made her face

He seems increasingly mean.

Some people think it’s great to be able to get stuff without going out, so they don’t say anything even if they don’t have a lot of stuff.

But there were also some people who were originally dissatisfied with the small amount of food, but did not dare to speak first. Now when they heard the words, they immediately joined in with all kinds of chatter.

"That is, in addition to me and the old man, we also have his eighty-year-old mother and an eight-year-old baby. There are four people in our family. These things are really not enough..."

"Do you think we are old and useless, so you deliberately send us these messy things..."

"You shouldn't be hiding all the things that can fill your stomach..."

Tan Qian seemed to have found her backbone now, and she straightened her back immediately: "How can you believe that you only got this thing after being out for a long time? I think it was brought back here on purpose to kill us old losers!

You young people, you talk nice about taking care of us elderly people, but in fact you say one thing and do another! There are several supermarkets nearby! How can it be just this little thing?"

…

Not to mention Brother Long and others, even Bian An and Chen Ya looked ugly.

The youngest security guard said angrily to You Xi: "What's going on with these uncles and aunts? They used to look very polite and kind, but why are they like this now... To kill the zombies, we rush in front; to reinforce the electric gate, too

We; it’s us who are on patrol duty at night; it’s us who go out to look for food!

We have done so many things, but they still suspect us of hiding food? If we really wanted to hide it, we wouldn’t even give them this little thing! I haven’t even eaten yet!”

You Xi and Chen Ya looked at each other, and Chen Ya sighed: "The words of the ancients really make sense."

Gao Yun walked over, and several residents who were familiar with him in the past hurriedly gathered around him.

Tan Qian took the lead and walked in front, her tone softened a bit, but still loud and clear: "Xiao Gao, don't blame Auntie for saying those things. You know, I am a widow, and I support our family all by myself.

The world has changed. There are all man-eating monsters outside. My aunt is old and useless. She is alone at home these days and has cried so many times——"

When Tan Qian said this, someone in the crowd said: "Hey, Aunt Tan, why do you think you are like a lonely old man? Don't you still have a son at home?

He must come back to live on the weekends, and every time he takes your wife with him, driving a car and carrying big and small bags, it’s so lively!”

"Who! Who is setting me up? I'll tear your mouth off for talking nonsense!" Tan Qian changed her face instantly and shouted in the direction of the voice, full of energy.

The crowd parted a little, revealing the speaker. Someone recognized him. He lived in the same building as Tan Qian, on the same floor, but in a different unit building.

The son of this family is not married yet and is currently at home. There should be some food left at home, so the son is not allowed to go out on adventures.

At this moment, they came down not to receive food, but to watch the fun.

After all, the internet is disconnected and I can't go out. Life is really boring.

The speaker was an aunt in her fifties with a fierce personality. She was cracking the melon seeds in her hand while continuing to reply: "Oh, you even tore my mouth off. I want to see who tore who out first today."

!

Your big boy is at home. Yesterday, I saw him on the balcony. While watching Xiao Gao and the others working hard to clean up zombies in the unit building opposite, he was hiding behind the balcony window holding his rice bowl.

Eating loudly is no different from eating while watching TV.

Why have you become a lonely old man today? Could it be that your son mutated last night?"

"Bah! Your son has just mutated! My son is fine! What the hell are you shrew!" Tan Qian was so angry that the other party dared to curse her son, and they started to curse her.

As soon as he finished speaking, the plastic bags containing food, drinks and fruits that he had just received were snatched away.

She turned around angrily, only to meet Long Ge's dark eyes.

"These things are only given to lonely old people who have no young adults at home."

Someone on the side helped: "Yes, Tan Qian, what kind of widow do you think you are if you have a son? You didn't say thank you when you received the things, but you still pick and choose here? If you are so dissatisfied, you should let your son go out to find something for you to eat.

Instead of letting him hide at home and watch the show!"

"You all shut up!"

Tan Qian cursed at the supporter, then turned to look at the person in front of her. She didn't dare to grab the food directly from Brother Long, so she turned to Gao Yun, "Xiao Gao, Aunt Tan can't help it, you know

, my son is not in good health, and my wife was originally very lazy, and now she is pregnant again...

So no, Aunt Tan can only come to collect things with this old face."

"Okay, you can take the things away." Gao Yun said, making Brother Long frown again.

But then, Gao Yun said again, "These foods are lent to you. We have to go out tomorrow and ask your son to go with us."

"Ah? This... this can't be done! My son can't go, there are man-eating monsters outside -"

Gao Yun interrupted her: "So, if your son can't go, the rest of us can go? There is no need to discuss this matter. I have said before that only the elderly and widowed people with no young adults at home can come to receive food. Since you

By coming here, you are tacitly agreeing that your son will participate in the operation, otherwise I will not be able to explain it to the other residents."

With that said, Gao Yun turned his head and said, "Brother Long, give her the food."

Brother Long bumped the plastic bag in his hand and laughed: "Take it. When your son comes back tomorrow, he will receive his share and then return what he received today to us."

Tan Qian panicked and waved her hands: "I won't take it anymore! I won't take it anymore. I want to go to you. My son won't go anyway!"

She said she wanted to leave, but was stopped by several of Brother Long's men.

"Auntie, this is too much. We all live in the same community. Why do we have to do all the hard work?"

"That's it, we are killing zombies, and your son is sitting at home watching the fun? Do you really think you are your own uncle?"

"Yes, we jointly build community safety. Your son lives here, so he has to contribute!"

…

Several people were laughing and joking, and their tone was relaxed, but they didn't loosen their grip on her.

Tan Qian turned around and wanted to ask the crowd for help, but the people in line to receive food also wanted to take food from others, so naturally they would not help her.

The young people who had just left the community and faced zombies for the first time were still frightened and had weak hands and feet. When they saw Tan Qian wanting to get something for nothing, they were so angry that they could not speak.

Others who didn't follow her out and couldn't get anything all laughed at her for being selfish and greedy.

For a while, no one spoke to help her.

Tan Qian was even more panicked. She was very worried about Brother Long and the others. They looked like members of society with bad tempers. In this situation, even if they called the police, no one would take care of them. She was afraid that they would come to drag her home tomorrow without saying a word.

Forcibly take her son out to kill zombies.

She only had such a son, and it took a lot of effort to raise him to such an old age, how could she let him do such dangerous things!

Tan Qian's heart skipped a beat and she suddenly said: "You don't have to go out to find supplies. I know where the supplies are!"

You Xi had already asked about the situation outside and planned to go back. Hearing this, he stopped and looked at Tan Qian.
