Early the next morning, Li Mu found a property and rented a dozen temporary parking spaces. The car rental company, at his urging, also delivered the car early.
Looking at a row of ten off-road vehicles, including even a fully imported pickup truck "Ford Raptor", Li Mu nodded with satisfaction and drove the pickup truck directly out the door.
We came to the weapons workshop we made an appointment with yesterday. It was said to be a workshop, but it was actually quite large. It had a lot of modern equipment and looked very professional.
After visiting it, there were all kinds of weapons, including swords, guns, swords and halberds... eighteen kinds of weapons.
There are also many modern weapons, such as recurve bows and compound bows.
The weapons used in Xingyiquan are mostly knives, spears, swords, and sticks. And it is different from ordinary weapon techniques. The usage is roughly the same as that of unarmed boxing. It can be said that it is a combination of boxing and weapons.
Li Mu majored in swords and spears. In terms of swordsmanship, he mainly trained in Five Elements Swordsmanship and Twelve Type Swordsmanship. In terms of marksmanship, his main training was Liuhe Daqiang.
In terms of knife skills and stick skills, it is indispensable to dabble, but the level of proficiency is not as good as that of swords and spears.
Li Mu thought about it for a while and chose five eight-sided Han swords and twenty spears, ranging from two meters to five meters.
As the saying goes, an inch longer is stronger. In terms of lethality, a long gun does not seem to be a deterrent. Only the tip of the entire weapon is lethal, but it should not be underestimated.
Its blade is long enough, often flexible, and can come and go without a trace. It can directly penetrate the enemy's heart, throat, aorta and other vital parts, killing it with one shot.
Other weapons, such as swords, may cause a lot of trauma, but few of them are fatal with a direct blow like this. It's nothing more than broken bones, broken arms and legs.
Although the wound of a spear is small, it is deep and fatal, and it is very easy to pierce the internal organs. In the era of cold weapons, there is basically no cure for stabbing the internal organs.
Facing zombies, the advantage of spears is more obvious. Cold weapons such as swords need to be used close to each other. If you are scratched or bitten by a zombie, or blood spurts on you, it will be a huge trouble.
Moreover, according to experience in novels and movies, ordinary damage is of little use to zombies. You must attack the fatal part, the heart or the brain. More importantly, the brain. Only by destroying the brain can you kill the zombies with one blow.
Compared with swords, spears do not have this concern. When attacking, the long barrel can maintain a relatively safe distance.
Moreover, the spear is flexible and versatile, and can basically kill with one hit. As long as you time it right, aim at the vital point, and hit it with one shot, the zombies will be finished.
After purchasing a gun and a sword, Li Mu took his fancy to a few more knives. The first was the Mo Dao, which was over two meters long. He picked it up and played with it. It was very cold and very handy.
It is said that the Mo Dao team of the Tang Dynasty was famous for using their Mo Dao and cutting all men and horses in half with one strike.
It's not bad to deal with zombies. Li Mu made ten Mo Dao, five of which were two meters and two meters long, and five of which were two meters and six long. Li Mu also made five of Tang Heng Dao, and five Miao Dao, which he kept for later use.
.
There were ten recurve bows and compound bows, as well as twenty two-meter-long eyebrow sticks.
As a professional weapons shop, there is also a complete range of professional armor here. Li Mu purchased more than 30 sets of various armors. Explosion-proof shields and matching restraint-type anti-riot forks also purchased more than a dozen sets. In the future, he will always
When it is useful.
After doing this, he added money and asked his boss to sharpen these weapons, and Li Mu continued to purchase other supplies.
I found a large electrical appliance store and ordered several large freezers, laptops, mobile phones, and a lot of spares. I also bought a lot of electronic products, including microwave ovens, rice cookers, induction cookers, air fryers... I bought a lot at once.
Li Mu also bought ten of DJI's latest drones, and also bought two small silent generators as backup power.
Due to the large amount of purchases, these items are delivered to your door by merchants.
Then he went to the vegetable market and purchased thousands of kilograms of pigs, sheep and beef, a batch of seasonings, hundreds of kilograms of fruits and vegetables, a batch of hot pot balls, and hundreds of ice creams.
Returning to the weapon shop, the owner acted quickly and the weapons had been sharpened. He loaded the things into the car, found a secluded place with no surveillance and no flow of people, and put all the weapons into the space. With so many cold weapons.
When I returned to my residence, it was too eye-catching.
When I got home, the delivery person from the electronics mall had already arrived. They transported the freezer and various electronic products to my home and installed them. Several kilograms of meat, ice cream, and hot pot meatballs were also put in. The morning passed like this.
After a simple lunch, Li Mu went out again.
Next to the community, on a quiet street with not many people, Li Mu contacted the landlord through the leasing information on the closed rolling shutter door.
I didn't care too much about the price. I got the store in less than half an hour and asked the master to change the locks again.
The interior space of the shop is not large, only more than 100 square meters, but it is enough. He took this shop mainly because it was close to where he lived and used it as a warehouse.
Currently, the only supplies that Li Mu is in short supply are diesel, gasoline and natural gas.
After filling up the natural gas tanks for cooking, we purchased dozens of them and put them in the store. We also purchased a large amount of diesel, which is mainly used to generate electricity.
However, gasoline was strictly controlled and private individuals were unable to purchase it on a large scale. Li Mu found some connections and purchased a large quantity, finally filling the store.
After finishing these tasks, I closed the rolling shutter door, locked the shop, and posted a few rental information to disguise it as an idle shop so as not to attract prying eyes. The shop itself has been idle for several months, which is not surprising.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Mu drove back to the community and suddenly saw many people gathered around the entrance of the community, and the car could not pass for a while. So he got out of the car and gathered around to take a look.
A middle-aged man of about forty years old was lying on the ground, his face was pale and pale, his body was shaking rapidly, his eyes were getting more and more cloudy, and seemed to be a bit grayish-white.
Li Mu even faintly smelled a strange smell.
At this moment, someone asked what was going on? Someone was calling 120, and someone else was watching in confusion. They seemed to have thought of something, and looked around, but stopped talking.
Almost at the same time, a white car drove to the entrance of the community. Seeing a group of people gathered here, a dignified and very beautiful young lady wearing a professional skirt got out of the car and walked over.
"What happened? Everyone is gathered here?"
The people around him seemed to have met the backbone, and many people immediately said hello: "Director Lin, look, what's wrong with this person?"
"Director Lin, could this person be..."
"Director Lin, will we be under martial law..."
…
Li Mu looked up and saw that this was a woman with stunning temperament and good looks. He also knew her, her name was "Lin Fei", the director of the Dongcheng District Sub-district Office in Xiacheng, who also lived here, and this community was in her neighborhood.
Within the jurisdiction.
She is worthy of the name of Bai Fumei. Her grandfather was in politics and retired in the province. Her father is a university professor and her mother is an entrepreneur. She is also an academic master. After graduating with a Ph.D. at the age of twenty-seven, she was selected as a transfer student and started as a regular major.
I was transferred here last year as the director of the sub-district office, and was directly promoted to deputy director, with a bright future.
At the beginning of this year, after Li Mu bought a house here, he met her once by chance. As a single man, he naturally pays great attention to excellent women, so he inquired about them, and then he had no other ideas.
The two have met several times in the community, but they are only familiar with each other. The other party has a pretty good reputation, can put her body down, and has done a lot of practical things. This is why so many people in the community know her.
Seeing Lin Fei approaching, everyone immediately moved out of the way.
Lin Fei walked in and took a look, her face a little surprised and uncertain. With so many people watching, she couldn't retreat. She took two steps forward and was about to squat down to carefully observe the middle-aged man's condition.
Li Mu reminded: "Don't get too close, be careful!" Although he didn't explain it directly, everyone knew that the zombie thing has been aroused on the Internet. Some people believe it, some don't believe it, and some people are confused. Who knows if the person in front of him is this person?
?
Li Mu's words seemed to pierce the window paper, and the crowd dispersed with a roar. Lin Fei was a woman after all, and subconsciously took a few steps back in Li Mu's direction. At the same time, she whispered: "This is really... really sad..."
Then he quickly shut up.
Li Mu glanced at her: "Isn't it hard to tell? It's too dangerous to surround her now. It's better to call the police to deal with it!"
Lin Fei nodded and quickly took out his cell phone to make a call.
After calling the police, the middle-aged man lying on the ground suddenly opened his light gray eyes with a twisted look on his face, grunted a few times, and got up stiffly.
Several young people shouted "zombie" with pale faces, turned around and ran away, leaving the scene in chaos.
The middle-aged man was drooling and rushed towards an old man with weak legs and feet. Li Mu moved his feet and approached silently. Before the other man could get close to the old man, he kicked him hard.
Given his physical condition, the power of this kick can be imagined. The middle-aged man flew three to four meters and fell to the ground. He grunted a few times and was about to get up. It seemed that such a heavy kick was not enough for him.
He had no influence.
Li Mu stepped forward in two steps and stepped heavily on his back. The middle-aged man made inaudible sounds and struggled with his hands and feet. He was extremely strong. If it weren't for Li Mu, most people would really not be able to stabilize.
Seeing the middle-aged man being restrained in a few moments, many people who were running far away stopped. Their nature of watching and gossiping made them come closer again.
Everyone said: "What's wrong with this guy? He's not really a zombie, is he?"
"Are you crazy?"
"It was really scary just now. Fortunately, the young man controlled it."
"Don't look at it, maybe it's really a zombie!"
"It's okay. Didn't you hear the police? The police will be here soon."
…
Lin Fei took a few steps closer and said in surprise: "Thank you for controlling the situation just now. This person has really become..."
Li Mu said: "Who knows! Let's wait until the police come!"
Lin Fei nodded and said with lingering fear: "Yes, wait for the police, they know more, let the police handle it."
Next, the scene was quiet for a while, waiting for the arrival of the police. In fact, Li Mu had confirmed that the person under his feet was a zombie, but it might have just changed, and some characteristics were not obvious yet.
In fact, he could kill the zombie directly, mainly because he was afraid of trouble. If the police came and couldn't confirm on the spot that the person in front of him was a zombie, he would inevitably be invited to drink tea. It was better to leave it to the police directly.
Five minutes later, two police cars arrived, and several policemen walked over. When they saw the person at Li Mu's feet, they immediately drew their pistols. They wanted to get closer but didn't dare to, so they could only look at him with admiration.
He looked at Li Mu and looked at this fierce man.
Another police officer immediately took out his walkie-talkie and called for backup.
Five or six minutes later, several police anti-riot vehicles drove over. A dozen heavily armed riot police took over the people at Li Mu's feet and used restraint anti-riot forks to control them. They immediately enforced martial law around the area and evacuated the crowd.
Because the situation was urgent, Li Mu simply made a note and ended it. At the request of the police, he drove back to the community quickly.
Before entering the underground garage, Li Mu glanced through the rearview mirror. His eyesight was very good, and he could vaguely see a special police officer adding a silencer to his rifle.
When Li Mu returned home, he picked up his binoculars and observed that the man had disappeared and a policeman was cleaning up the ground.
Then it became clear that the zombies had been dealt with. With such a decisive action, it was obvious that such things had happened many times and that there had been plans in place.
It seems that the situation is worse than imagined, and we don’t know when it will fully erupt.
…
At night, on the rooftop of the building, Li Mu lay leisurely on a deck chair, looking at the stars in the sky and admiring the misty moonlight. From the main road near the community, the sound of a motorcade passing by could be heard.
Li Mu set up his binoculars and saw a line of more than thirty military vehicles passing by the main road near the community, followed by more than a dozen armored vehicles.
This is...the army has entered the city! The situation in Xia City does not look optimistic.
In the early morning of the next day, Li Mu looked through the binoculars and found that everything was normal around him. There were no zombies and no PLA uncles were standing guard.
So, as usual, I continued to go downstairs to run and exercise.
After finishing morning exercise, I met Lin Fei who was returning from the same morning run.
"Hello!"
"Hello!"
The two said hello, and Lin Fei said: "Thank you for yesterday."
Li Mu said: "Nothing, it should be."
As he spoke, he suddenly said: "Director Lin, what is the situation in our city now? I saw a military vehicle entering the city yesterday."
Lin Fei glanced at him and said: "I actually don't know much. The higher-ups are just asking to stabilize the current situation and cooperate with the arrangements of the superiors to prevent the situation from getting out of control."
Li Muchao: "It seems that the situation is really critical."
Lin Fei suddenly whispered: "You have to be careful. I heard from the gossip that less than 10% of infected people can produce antibodies, and the other 90% will become..." As he spoke, a trace of his face appeared.
fear.
Li Mu nodded: "Thank you!"
The two of them were not in the same building. They came to a fork in the road and were about to separate. Lin Fei suddenly turned around and said: "My name is Lin Fei. Don't call me Director Lin from now on. You are already old. You should call me by my name."
