An urgent knock on the door rang downstairs, which sounded particularly loud early in the morning. Zhang Tieniu reluctantly left the iron pot, humming dissatisfiedly as he walked.
As soon as Zhang Tieniu opened the door a small crack, several people outside the door suddenly squeezed in like a savage beast behind them.
In addition to the owner of the clay pot shop who visited last night, there were two other people who came with him. One of them was an ugly old man with a short stature, a sharp mouth, monkey cheeks, an onion nose, and a face full of wrinkles.
The other one is a middle-aged woman in her forties. She is tall, has a handsome face, and has a haggard look on her crescent eyebrows. It is obvious that this middle-aged woman must have been a stunning beauty when she was young.
Seeing Yu Beichuan walking down leisurely, the boss grabbed the corners of their clothes with one hand and slowly knelt down.
Yu Beichuan frowned and felt very unhappy, "Stop being like this. Don't kneel down at your age!"
"Okay then, let's..." The three people stood up angrily.
The room was filled with the strong aroma of meat, and the stomachs of the three of them began to rumble unsatisfactorily.
"Smells, it smells so good," the energetic old man kept stretching his nose and sniffing around. The owner of the claypot shop gave the energetic old man a hard look. This was really embarrassing.
"Why don't we have breakfast together first? I didn't eat it anyway," Yu Beichuan invited them.
After saying that, Yu Beichuan went upstairs on his own, regardless of whether the three people followed him.
Zhang Tieniu rushed ahead with three steps and two steps. The boss had already spoken, saying that he would eat if he could.
"Let's go up together," the three people downstairs looked at each other with six eyes, but couldn't pay any attention to it. The energetic old man stamped his feet and hurriedly followed him upstairs.
The iron pot on the second floor was filled with a large pot of meat. Yu Beichuan and Zhang Daniu were eating Haisai and devouring it. The three of them were stunned.
The vigorous old man's saliva flowed down involuntarily. He looked around for a big bowl and a pair of chopsticks without even washing them. He squeezed over and picked up a big spoon and poured them into the bowl.
The middle-aged woman brushed the strands of hair around her ears, moved lightly, picked up the bowl and chopsticks generously, wiped them with her hands, put a small half of the bowl in, sat down and ate in small bites.
The meat of a first-level beast is rich in energy, which is very large for ordinary people.
The three of them each managed to eat a large bowl. They looked at the fragrant meat in the pot with regret and could no longer eat it.
After just a moment, the three of them flushed, their whole bodies felt smooth, and they felt indescribably comfortable.
The eyes that were dead gray just now returned to their original brilliant color. Seeing that Yu Beichuan and Zhang Daniu were still devouring, the three of them could not help but be horrified.
The people were full and energetic. When Yubeichuan finished eating, they sat in front of them. The three of them looked around each other. Finally, the middle-aged woman came forward and asked, "Sir, if you still hope to help us, we will be rewarded generously!"
The middle-aged woman's voice was gentle and soft, with an indescribable charm in her hoarseness.
Yu Beichuan didn't say anything. He liked hearing the middle-aged woman's voice very much, but the so-called generous reward was too false. Although Yu Beichuan didn't care, he didn't like this kind of Tai Chi tone. His face immediately turned cold.
Come down.
These three people are all old Jianghu who are very observant. When they saw Yu Beichuan's face suddenly turned cold and impatient, they knew that what he said was not to his liking, and their hearts began to beat violently.
"This is a master who doesn't let go of rabbits and hawks. There are benefits that others may not be willing to do. There is nothing substantive. It seems that he can't be moved." The energetic old man said.
I thought to myself, my eyes met the look of the middle-aged woman, and they nodded.
"Sir, you can't get out now. The road to City S is flooded." The middle-aged woman didn't waste time and directly took out their trump card.
"Currently, the only passable ship is in our hands!" the middle-aged woman said confidently, her face lit up.
"Phew!" Yu Beichuan was stunned at first, and then laughed out loud. With this condition, I really don't know where they got the confidence.
In his life, Yu Beichuan hated others threatening him the most. He had to talk if he wanted to talk, but if he didn't talk well, he could just talk to himself.
"It's great to have a boat, but I don't have one. I really want your boat, who can stop it?" Without saying anything, Yubeichuan stood up and was about to leave.
When he saw the owner of the claypot shop, Yu Beichuan was kind enough to ask if he could help him, so he tried his best and settled the matter. Now...
"Sir, please don't leave. We have things to discuss and things to discuss." The owner of the clay pot shop looked pale and stepped forward to hug Yu Beichuan's calf, not letting him leave.
"What are you doing? Go away." Zhang Tieniu was furious and knocked the owner of the clay pot shop to the ground with one hand.
When the vigorous old man saw something was wrong, he fell forward and bowed to the ground. "Sir! If you can rescue my Wei Xing tribe, our tribe is willing to recognize you as its leader!"
"Sir! Your Majesty! I, the Blue Clan, are willing too!" The boss crawled all the way over and knelt down. His two children and all the clansmen were in the shopping mall. How could he give up on the only hope now?
"Forget it, don't block the road, get out of the way!" Yubeichuan was so angry that he still didn't calm down.
The tough old man and the owner of the clay pot shop rushed over and hugged Yu Beichuan's calf, refusing to let go.
"You, you are scoundrels..." Even Zhang Tieniu couldn't stand the behavior of these two old men.
"Liang Ziqian, if you still don't kneel down and beg me, do you want your Liang family to be exterminated? How can you bear the eternal crime!" The owner of the clay pot shop accused angrily.
The middle-aged woman burst into tears and was confused for a moment. There were 321 people in the family in the shopping mall. That was more than 300 lives. How could she afford to carry these?
The cool morning breeze blew the tears off her face through the window. With all the things in the world, who would be willing to humble herself and beg for help if she had no choice? If possible, she would rather give her own life in exchange for it than beg for help.
"I can save my clan by just kneeling down. I will, I will." She thought to herself that she was urgently ill and seeking medical treatment. Even if there was only a glimmer of hope, Liang Ziqian knelt down.
"Sir, on behalf of the clan, the little girl is willing!" Liang Ziqian's voice was hoarse and shrill, like a cuckoo crying for blood. People couldn't help but feel moved when they heard it.
"If you risk your own life, you will definitely be able to save her?" Yu Beichuan thought to himself. He couldn't guarantee it. This promise was too heavy.
Yu Beichuan didn't say anything, but the owner of the clay pot shop saw something.
"Sir, don't worry. It's really not possible. You can save ten or eight. If you don't agree, the three of us will have to kneel down until we die!" The owner of the clay pot shop saw Yu Beichuan's concerns and said, with a pleading look in his eyes.
.
"Okay, let's get up and talk!" Yu Beichuan said in a stern tone, pitying the hearts of parents in the world, human life is at stake, and dignity is not worth mentioning.
The three people stood up and found a place to sit down. The owner of the clay pot shop slowly told the story.
On the night of the moonlit night, the world changed dramatically, and the small town of Akoslei was not immune. This town mainly has three Tu ethnic surnames: Lan, Wei, and Liang.
Some of the foreign population form this small town.
When the big change occurred that night, there were more than 7,000 people in the town, and nearly 5,000 mutated zombies.
Most of the surviving foreign population fled by car without knowing whether to live or die. As native aborigines, they have lived here for generations since they moved to the planet Utota. Naturally, they have nowhere to escape and are unwilling to leave their homes and flee.
After the mutation, there were only a dozen or so people left in the family management of the small town of Akosre. When communication was blocked and they could not be contacted, they sent people to ask for help. At the same time, they organized the residents of the town to rescue themselves. The zombies came too suddenly, and there was no result.
Ways to save yourself.
Heping Shopping Mall was originally one of the three major collective industries of the Tu people, and it was also the strongest building in the town.
After a busy night of escaping, more than 900 people from the three Tu ethnic groups, Lan, Wei and Liang, moved to the mall. They interrupted all the stairs on the first floor of the mall to temporarily escape the zombies.
Of the more than 1,000 remaining people, 300 to 400 were lost in the zombie siege that night, and more than 200 people fled. The remaining 500 people resisted all the way and fled, and finally gathered in the Akosre Middle School building.
Less than four hundred people.
Except for a few people, about fifty or sixty living people like Zhang Tieniu, who were hiding in their own homes, it is no exaggeration to say that there were basically no living people in the entire town.
The current situation in Heping Shopping Mall is precarious. It is understood that there used to be a hotel above the shopping mall, plus the food that was brought that night. After more than ten days, it has reached the point where it is now at the end of its rope.
The situation at the school is even worse. Except for a cafeteria, no food has been brought in. No one knows what the situation is like now and whether they can survive.
The road leading out of the town currently only leads to the big city in the west. The road is far away, and leads to Mingshan in the north. The southeast side is blocked by the sudden appearance of a large lake and is inaccessible.
According to the three people, there are about fifty people that can be summoned in the town now, most of them are old people who are unwilling to leave their homes until they die.
After hearing the situation, Yu Beichuan was at a loss what to do. If the food in the shopping mall was still enough, he would kill the zombies slowly for ten or eight days, and he would probably be almost finished.
If he just waited any longer, I was afraid that the people in the mall would not be able to survive without food, and there would be no way to survive in the end. For a while, Yubeichuan was in a dilemma, not knowing what to plan.
Liang Ziqian was alone, sitting there blankly, crying constantly. No matter how the tough old man and the boss tried to dissuade her, she remained silent. She didn't know whether she was blaming herself or thinking about something.
Yu Beichuan didn't say anything, and Zhang Tieniu didn't dare to go over and persuade her. If tears could drown zombies, then the world would be peaceful.
"Tieniu and I went out to investigate the situation, you stay here!" After much deliberation, Yubeichuan decided to inquire about the situation first, and then make the next plan after returning.
"Take us with you, let's go together!" The owner of the clay pot shop and the energetic old man quickly expressed their stance.
These two people also wanted to follow them, killing one more zombie would give their clansmen one more chance, but Yu Beichuan refused, not being able to protect themselves, so Chun Cui followed them to cause trouble.
"Tieniu, hurry up and catch up!" Seeing that Zhang Tieniu was starting to dawdle, Yu Beichuan attacked Zhang Tieniu again.
Zhang Tieniu is like a square piece of wood. If you don't roll it, it won't move.
Having said that, even if you search the entire planet Utota, you won't be able to find a few people who are capable of dropping out of technical colleges.
"Boss, wait a minute, we'll be there soon!" Having overcome his fear of zombies, Zhang Tieniu is now very active in fighting zombies.
