The group left the small coastal villages and towns in Tongshi and walked along the national highway.
Almost every private house they encountered would go in and search, but every time they returned without success.
It seemed that all the houses had been ransacked and there was not a trace of food left.
After walking for two hours, they looked at the city ahead with excited faces.
I finally saw the city. The supplies in the city are definitely much better than in the suburbs.
The city in front of them is quite large.
However, some people looked worried.
I just searched so many houses but couldn't find any food. Even if I went to the city in front, I'm afraid the result would be the same.
“It’s probably hard to find food in the city.”
Dennis looked at the colonel and continued:
"It has been five or six years since the apocalypse broke out. Even if there is food in the city, it must have been corrupted. Why don't we go to the mountains and forests to find some food?"
As a professionally trained soldier, even if he is not a special soldier, he still roughly knows some wilderness survival skills.
The colonel was also under great pressure at this time. As the leader of this team, he was responsible for the lives of everyone.
It was hard for him to imagine how China, a country with a vast territory and abundant resources, could be so short of supplies.
Are there many survivors here?
"Well... we are not going to the city. It will be dark in a few hours. It is very dangerous to stay in the city. Let's go to the surrounding mountains and forests to search." The colonel thought for a while and adopted Dennis's choice.
suggestions.
During the search, they found an area map with a soldier who knew Chinese.
For example, in their team, knowing a foreign language can increase the benefits, adding an extra $500 per week.
Holding this map, David pointed to the location of Tong City and said:
"Colonel, we are here now. Next we need to choose a target location, right?"
The colonel looked at the map, pointed to a sign and asked, "Where is this?"
“Scenic resort!”
"A place to travel?"
"right."
"How far away are we?"
"About ten kilometers."
"Okay, let's go here, but the first priority is to find a way to get something to eat." The colonel's stomach twitched with hunger.
The group of people followed the colonel and haven't had a bite to eat since they got off the boat.
Morale is low.
They did not enter the city, but walked around the city along the national highway in bushes, mountains, small ditches and other places looking for anything to eat.
The earthworms buried in the soil, because the wild fruits they can identify are limited, are starving to death now, and they can't care about that many.
Caterpillars on the trees, dates falling on the ground, wild chestnuts...
Suddenly, the colonel saw a rabbit in the woods, bang!
Shoot and kill.
I turned the rabbit over and checked it, opened its eyes, and found no mutation.
Can be eaten!
But they can't stop now. Disposing of the rabbit carcasses is troublesome and takes time.
Why don't they have enough to share with so many people? Everyone wants to eat meat, but there is only one rabbit meat of less than two kilograms...
The colonel frowned. It would be too slow for everyone to hunt together. It would be better for everyone to use their subjective initiative to solve their own problems.
"Listen to me, in one hour, everyone will disperse to find food to fill their stomachs, and we will gather here in one hour!" the colonel said to everyone.
Whether you can find food to fill your stomach after separation depends entirely on your own abilities.
"Okay, Colonel."
.....
Without hesitation, everyone dispersed in a hurry. They tried their best to search for all kinds of edible food.
Snails, earthworms, ants, cicadas, snakes, various insects, as well as wild fruits, wild vegetables...
After they left, the colonel originally wanted to search for food, but he looked at the rabbit he had just killed and coughed.
He pulled out the dagger from his thigh and started skinning the rabbit.
After a few minutes, he lit the flame.
Stick a stick through the rabbit and place it over the flame to grill.
He looked at the rabbit being roasted and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
I'm so hungry.
Generally speaking, when grilling or grilling over an open fire, it is easy to burn the meat. The best way is to bake slowly over residual fire or smoke, so that the meat will be cooked both inside and out.
After roasting over an open fire for ten minutes, the surface of the rabbit was roasted black and exuded a rich meaty aroma.
But he was so hungry that he couldn't care about it anymore, and without burning his hands, he tore off a piece of rabbit leg, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.
The rabbit legs were cooked on the surface, but still a little raw on the inside, and the meat inside was still pink.
Swallowing like crazy, he felt that the piece of rabbit leg meat in his hand was the most delicious thing he had ever eaten in his life.
After being on the boat for such a long time, if you are lucky you can eat some fish, but if you are not lucky you can only go back and eat expired individual soldier rations.
But later on, the individual soldier rations that they despised became precious.
Food is getting less and less, and they are getting weaker and weaker.
The fresh rabbit meat in his hand at this time was undoubtedly the most delicious food in the world to him.
He ate the whole rabbit in less than ten minutes after a quick meal.
He even ate the internal organs and rabbit heads.
In the end, there was only a skeleton that could not be chewed. Even so, he flattened the skeleton with a stone and packed it into his backpack.
These bones can be slowly smashed into powder when you are free and can be eaten. Moreover, the bones are rich in various nutrients, especially the calcium in the bone powder. Eating it can make his bones healthier.
Including processing, grilling and eating a whole rabbit, it only took more than half an hour.
He leaned under a big tree, and the sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves and fell on him.
Although he was not full, the feeling of having something in his stomach made him feel happy.
Feeling the comfort of this moment carefully, you narrowed your eyes slightly and raised your head.
Jiji——
There happened to be a squirrel jumping around on the branch.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The colonel originally thought it was because he was dazzled, until he heard the cry of a squirrel and was convinced.
Whoosh!
Draw your gun!
shot!
Bang!
He hit the squirrel accurately.
He felt that he didn't have enough to eat originally, and now that the meat was delivered to his door, he naturally couldn't let it go.
Continue to dispose of the body and barbecue.
While he was handling the squirrel, Vicky used a branch to carry a two-meter-long snake over.
The snake's head was chopped off with a dagger, but its body was still squirming.
"Colonel, I found a snake!"
"Not bad."
The colonel was very calm. As he answered, he put away his dagger, slowly inserted a stick into the squirrel's belly, and then used a few branches to fix the squirrel's limbs.
After eating a rabbit, he had already recovered.
This squirrel has been killed and must be processed as soon as possible, otherwise the meat will rot easily.
Moreover, the corpses of squirrels will attract zombies at night.
It doesn't matter if the squirrel is cooked.
soon.
Vicky tied the snake, wrapped it around a stick, and grilled it over the fire.
While they were having a barbecue, some people came back one after another.
A small number of people caught the animals, and when they came back, they plucked the hairs and immediately put them on the fire for barbecue. They had guns, and catching animals was much more efficient and simpler than using traps.
As for most other people, they mainly eat various insects and wild vegetables and fruits to fill their stomachs.
After everyone who had gone out returned, the colonel asked everyone to take their luggage and walk towards Langshan Scenic Resort.
They returned to the national highway from the mountains and forests, and it was difficult to walk in the mountains and forests.
On the way, they checked some vehicles on the roadside and found that they were all scrapped and unusable.
Moreover, most of these vehicles have been soaked in water, and the parts inside are rusted.
At four o'clock in the evening,
There was an elk crossing the national highway in front. The moment it bounced, an arrow struck the elk. The elk trotted forward a few steps. It seemed that it had received a fatal blow and fell to the grass on the left.
.
In an emergency, four or five figures ran over from the right and rushed towards the elk.
But just as I was crossing the national highway, I happened to see the colonel and these people.
The leader, a man wearing a mink hat, changed his face when he saw the color and clothes of the colonel and others.
"retreat!"
But at this moment, bang!
The colonel fired directly, hitting one of the men in the shoulder blade.
The man stumbled and fell to the ground. Ah.
"Catch them!" the colonel shouted.
Wu Yangyang, the subordinate behind him, rushed over.
I have just arrived in this place and I don’t understand the situation here, so I naturally need to find someone to find out.
I haven't seen anyone all day today. Now I finally see people. I can't let them run away no matter what.
Following the colonel's order, the soldiers behind him immediately rushed over to chase those few people.
After a few minutes, they had the group under control.
"Grass-mud horse! White-skinned pig!" the man in the mink hat shouted at the colonel.
The colonel didn't understand, so he asked David:
"What did he say?"
David translated awkwardly: "He scolded you."
The colonel snorted coldly and said to Vicky:
"Torture to find out where their shelter is, and also figure out the situation in China."
"yes."
Vicky rubbed her wrist and walked towards several people with the dagger.
.......
Ten minutes later.
With blood on his face, Vicky reported the situation to the colonel.
Under his severe questioning, Vicky learned many things.
First, we found out that their shelter was in a house in the northeast.
That private house was only four or five kilometers away from them. It was located in the suburbs and could be reached in an hour.
In addition, the house also has a large basement, which can avoid wall-climbing zombies.
After hearing the good news, the colonel was in a good mood and asked the group of people to take him to their shelter.
Secondly, the news that interests them the most is about Oil City and the trading market.
You only need points to buy what you want there.
Oil, food, and various living supplies.
This news excites them the most. What they lack most now is food. If they can buy food there, they can solve all other difficulties.
It's just that... because of their white-skinned status, they don't know if they will be targeted if they enter the trading market.
An hour later.
They arrived around the shelter of these few people.
In order to quickly control the remaining people, the colonel asked David, who knew Chinese, to lead more than 20 people to sneak attack on the people in the house and control them as quickly as possible.
David quickly arranged and divided three teams to attack from three other directions.
And just when they were about to disperse, they happened to see a young man walking towards them carrying an ax.
When they were only four or five meters away, they spotted a big tree.
I looked at it from top to bottom.
"Tsk, this tree is nice. It's straight and thick!"
"Hey!"
He raised his ax and chopped it towards the big tree. After just two chops, he felt the urge to urinate.
"Pee first..."
The man put down his ax and walked towards David and the others.
Seeing that there was no way to avoid him, David could only stand up and pointed his gun at the man.
Said in broken Chinese:
"Don't move!"
At the same time, he waved to his men behind him to let them control the man. Ah.
The man is confused!
What's going on!?
Got it wrong?
Why the hell do we see foreigners in this place?
He looked at the white-skinned pig in front of him, and then at the gun in his hand.
I subconsciously want to run.
But he controlled his legs. He felt that if he ran away, this white-skinned pig would definitely shoot him.
His eyes rolled rapidly, thinking about how to escape.
But when he noticed the military uniform on David's body, he frowned and thought to himself: It's the end of the world, how can the devils from foreign troops come here?
Helpless, he turned his brain several times and couldn't do anything. Forced by the threat to his life, he had no choice but to raise his hands and surrender.
Wow~
At the same time, two foreigners came out from behind David and stepped forward to control the young man.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! By this time, it was too late for him to run away.
Suddenly a man's voice came from the backyard.
"Chen Chen, Chen Chen, come here and help me."
"Chen Chen, what are you doing?"
"The sound of cutting down trees has disappeared. Are you lazy again?"
"Isn't it because I encountered a zombie? Damn..."
A man ran out from the courtyard of the house, carrying a shovel, and happened to see David and others in the backyard controlling Chen Chen.
"You? You idiots! You stupid foreign devils!"
The next second, he shouted towards the yard:
"There are enemies!"
Bang!
A gunshot pierced the sky.
David glared at the men who fired, "I told you not to shoot!"
After the gunshots were fired, they quickly rushed into the building without any hesitation.
Inside the building.
In the front yard, a bearded man was planing wood. The moment he heard the gunfire, he immediately picked up the spear beside him and ran towards the backyard.
Upstairs, a man and a woman were nailing wooden boards to the windows to strengthen the building. When they heard the gunfire, they did not hesitate to pick up their weapons and go downstairs.
As soon as the bearded man arrived in the backyard, he was held at gunpoint by seven or eight guns.
He shouted towards the back: "Xiao Fei, Ding Ya, run!"
Bang!
He was knocked to the ground by David's punch.
"Take control!"
Xiao Fei and Ding Ya, who had just ran downstairs, looked at each other in shock when they heard Brother Gang's shouting.
"Brother Gang must be in trouble, we can't leave, we have to rescue him!" Ding Ya was about to rush over.
But Xiao Fei immediately grabbed her hand and dragged her to the front yard.
"No, they have guns. Brother Gang is reminding us that we should leave first and find a way to save them."
Opening the door, Xiaofei was desperate.
Several white-skinned soldiers with guns in front of them pointed their guns at their heads.
"It's over!"
Xiaofei was completely devastated.
Tap tap tap——
David came with his men and said to his men:
"Go upstairs and search again! Get everyone under control."
"yes!"
A few minutes later, Xiao Fei, Ding Ya, and Wang Gang were kneeling on the ground. They looked at captains Wang Ou and Xie Wang, who had been beaten with black noses and swollen eyes, as well as Meng Ziming, who had one of his legs broken.
Chen Mo was not seen.
Come to think of it, he might have been killed by these people.
They stared at David and others with hateful eyes. If looks could kill, David and others would have been killed hundreds of times.
Wang Ou and Xie Wang saw that Xiao Fei and the others were also controlled, and looked at Meng Ziming angrily.
"It's all your fault!" Wang Ou glared at Meng Ziming.
After being glared at by Wang Ou, Meng Ziming lowered his head in shame.
In order to survive, Meng Ziming told the group of people where they were stationed.
This time, Xiaofei and the others were also troubled, and their lair was taken away.
After Xiao Fei, Ding Ya, and Wang Gang knew that Meng Ziming had brought him here, they all cursed at Meng Ziming.
"Damn Meng Ziming, are you fucking blind?"
"Grass...."
Ding Ya sighed and looked at Meng Ziming with a little resentment in his eyes.
.....
Later, after David and others inspected the entire building, they put their guns on Wang Gang's head.
"Where is one of you left? Where has he gone?"
"have no idea!"
Snap!
David slapped him and nodded his head with his gun, "Tell the truth and I will spare your life."
"Haha, you idiot, I don't believe your nonsense, go find it, hahaha." Wang Gang said, spitting in David's face.
Tui!
Boom!
David used the handle of the gun to knock the bearded man unconscious.
He put the muzzle of the gun on Xiao Fei's head again, "Say what you say!"
Xiao Fei turned his head away and ignored David at all.
At this time, the colonel came over, and David said to the colonel:
"Colonel, there is another person who is not here, according to what he said."
David pointed to Meng Ziming and continued to say to the colonel:
"He said there were eight people in total. You killed one person earlier. There should be four more people left here. Now there are only three."
The colonel frowned and said to David:
"After the torture, Vicky, go and help."
"Can I kill them?" David asked.
The colonel shook his head, "Don't kill them, I still have use for their lives."
He didn't know what the specific situation was in Oil City. After all, they were white-skinned outsiders, so they were afraid that they would be captured if they went to the trading market.
And the group of people now under control may become their tools.
I haven't figured out how to do it specifically, but it's always right to save your life first.
The colonel shouted to Dennis behind him:
"You lead people around to look for him! I must find the remaining person!"
"yes!"
Dennis left with about thirty people to disperse and search in all directions.
........
a few minutes ago.
On a tree fifty meters away from them, a young man was digging out bird eggs.
His hand just reached into the bird's nest and touched three eggs.
"Hey, three bird eggs! I wonder if big brother and the others can hunt animals..."
Bang! There was a gunshot, and he looked in the direction of the shelter.
He saw with his own eyes that Xiao Fei and Ding Ya were being controlled in the front yard. He could see clearly from the tree.
I also saw that my eldest brother Wang Ou and Brother Wang were controlled...
After seeing his elder brother being tied up, he hurriedly got down from the tree.
"I'm going to save my eldest brother!"
But after he took two steps, he stopped again.
"No, those foreigners all have guns, I'm just going to give them to them! Even my elder brother can't beat them, let alone me."
The young man clenched his fists, with a tangled look in his eyes.
"But just watching my eldest brother being raped by them..."
His brain was spinning wildly, thinking of ways to save his eldest brother.
"Rescue them at night? No... I stay in the mountains at night. If there are zombies, I will definitely die. And there are so many of them, I can't save them."
"Looking for help?"
"Who are you looking for?"
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind.
"Look for Oil City! A large number of foreign troops have appeared here, they will definitely be interested!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "And there is an information mission issued by the trading market, and there is an information mission from this strange force."
At this moment, the young man thought clearly about what he should do.
He turned around without hesitation and ran towards the forest behind him.
He is going to Oil City now, to tell the people in Oil City what is going on here, and to save his eldest brother and the others through their hands.
I was given it as a gift in the past. Without a gun, I would definitely not be able to do it with just a machete!
Moreover, those people were wearing military uniforms and looked like they were from the army.
If you don’t stay in your own country, why do you have to go to other countries?
Grass!
Big brother! Brother Fei! Brother Gang!......
Hold on, I'll find someone to rescue you when I get to the trading market.
He ran hard, running up the mountain as fast as he could, and then ran down the mountain.
He knew the road to Oil City but was not familiar with it. He had followed his elder brother and the others to buy supplies at the trading market before.
An hour later, he looked at the sunset and realized that he had to go down the mountain to find a place to hide from the zombies.
The mountains and forests at night are very dangerous. Zombies are not the scariest thing, but zombie animals are the scariest thing.
He immediately ran down the mountain, and halfway up the mountain he saw a country road.
He was familiar with this road. There should be a small town two kilometers ahead.
When he arrived in that town, as long as he found a house with a basement, he would have a higher chance of spending the night safely.
He ran as fast as he could in his life, fighting against the setting sun.
We must get to the town before the sun sets.
The sunset has mostly set.
The later it gets, the faster it gets dark.
When he was going down the mountain, he fell because he was too anxious.
Rolling, but he felt no pain.
Seeing a broken bird egg on the ground, he immediately lay down on the ground, stuck out his tongue and ate the egg to the very bottom along with the weeds and leaves. He didn't even let go of the eggshell.
He hesitated for two seconds with the remaining two eggs. It was difficult to carry them with him, and the eggs would easily break while running.
Holding it with your hands will affect his running speed.
So, he stuffed the bird eggs directly into his mouth.
Holding.
He was reluctant to eat it right away. After so many years, he was lying on the ground just now eating bird eggs with sand, dirt and weeds. It was the first egg he had eaten in five years.
As he ran down the mountain, he felt the bird egg in his mouth break.
It was accidentally bitten by a tooth.
The smooth bird egg liquid tastes a little sweet but also very fishy.
But the crispy eggshell is like a snack, and it clicks when you bite it.
As he ran, he held the bird egg liquid in his mouth and swallowed it bit by bit into his stomach.
Bird eggs seemed to moisturize his throat, and when he was running, his throat was as dry as red-hot coals.
And the moist bird eggs made his throat feel better.
The sun goes down.
The sky turned blue.
It's getting dark faster and faster.
He looked at the small town less than 500 meters in front of him and had no time to rest, even though his throat seemed to be smoking and his calves were sore and stiff.
But he knew he had to persist.
Stick to the town and find shelter.
Four hundred meters.
Three hundred meters.
Two hundred meters.
One hundred meters.
Fifty meters.
The town was right in front of him, and he could even see zombies coming out of the town.
He stared at the row of houses on the edge of the town, looking for ones that looked more stable.
While running, he is thinking and making choices.
He saw the two-story building at the far end.
"That's it!"
.......
(Sorry, I want to make a big chapter, but the bosses have been waiting for a long time.)
