Chapter 42, New Friends

"Hold on, hold on a little longer, and move your big ass. Once you get to a safe place, you can give it a break," a young female voice said.

"Hi!" A man's voice said dissatisfied: "My butt is not big!"

"Let's go, two sexy babies." Another man with a very mature voice said, "I hope I can walk to the community before tonight, so that I can have a rich dinner and a warm bed.

"

After hearing his words, several others felt motivated in their hearts.

Rich dinner.

Warm quilt.

These two things that were once taken for granted are now so precious that they can almost be exchanged for their lives.

"Cheer up, Caitlin." The young female voice said, "There might be a few handsome young guys waiting for you in the safe zone." When she said the word "young handsome guys," she was deliberately provocative.

He gave the two men a general look.

"Young Ms. Erica," the man with the charming voice said breathlessly, "you have not yet experienced the charm of a mature man."

Another man with a loud voice said dissatisfiedly: "Hi! I'm only 35 years old, I'm not old at all!"

"Fuck you, no one can believe it, you are at least 50 years old." Erica said disdainfully, causing the other man to laugh loudly.

Although these people are talking and laughing, in fact they have not had any rest for three consecutive days, and they have been without food since last night.

These four people are the female security guard Erica, the unknown young director Andy, the telecommunications engineer Clyde, and the black-skinned girl who has been silent.

Caitlin, a former research assistant hit by job losses.

That day, Clyde, who climbed up the communication tower, accidentally heard a weak broadcast signal. He learned that there was an organized team of survivors in the evangelical community not far away.

In order to make it easier to listen to the broadcast every day instead of climbing up and down the tower for an hour, Clyde received the broadcast signal and then amplified it and broadcast it. Unexpectedly, his casual behavior lit the first beacon tower.

After Lily announced on the radio that the gospel team had rescued two survivors, the only four survivors in Jixi Town decided to take a risk and leave the town that had been overrun by infected people to join the gospel community.

Their first hurdle was not easy. The only bridge from Jixi Town to the Gospel Community was blocked by infected people. These were tourists who traveled to Jixi Town during the peak tourist season.

It would be fine if there were only small cars, but there was a bus full of people blocked on the bridge.

After the infected people in the bus got out of the bus, the bridge suddenly became intimidating and no one dared to approach it.

It is only more than 20 kilometers from Jixi Town to the Gospel Community along the county highway, which is less than half an hour's drive. However, in order to bypass the bridge, these four people walked for ten years along the valley with a height of tens of meters.

After a few kilometers, I finally found a gentle slope that I could climb.

After successfully crossing the rapid stream with mutual help, everyone climbed up the river valley on the other side with difficulty.

At this time, Clyde, who often worked in the field, suggested that there was no need for them to walk along the river valley back to the other side of the bridge. According to the triangulation method, the sum of the two sides was greater than the third side. They could choose to walk in a straight line, which would take a lot less walking.

road.

This genius decision made them suffer a lot in the following days. Not only did they get lost in the forest, but they were also hit by heavy rain and cold wind, and lost most of their unsealed food.

This morning, four people who were hungry and cold were attacked by two strong infected people. Four people beat two, and all of them suffered some injuries as a result.

Among them, Clyde was the most seriously injured. Half of his ear was bitten off by the infected person. Although he said he didn't care, everyone knew that he tried his best to protect Caitlin.

Now, everyone has spent their last energy to cheer and encourage each other. They all know that they are at the end of their strength. Once they fail to catch the breath, they will never stand up again after falling.

"Look, look!" Clyde, who was leading the way, shouted excitedly, "There is a road ahead! We are finally out of that damn forest!"

"Yes! Woohoo!" Erica also screamed excitedly. She saw hope when the last luster of her life was about to disappear. She was so excited that she didn't care whether this shouting would attract infected people.

Following the signposts along the county highway, after two hours of arduous hiking, the group of four finally saw the Gospel Community in the distance.

I saw a huge banner with green characters on a white background hanging on the tallest building in the gospel community. That simple word "safe" made the four people shed tears involuntarily.

The four people entered the gospel community along the highway, and were stunned by the scene on the T-shaped street in front of them.

"Oh God, God, God! What the hell is this!"

It has to be said that anyone who sees the things left in T-zixia Street will have a great psychological shock.

The four of them were standing at the entrance of the community, and were considering whether to enter the community through this intimidating street, or to squeeze out some more strength and go around from the other side, when a huge pickup truck drove up in the distance.

The pickup truck suddenly stopped in front of the four people. Before the car was turned off, four heavily armed men jumped out of the car. Each of them carried a gun, and two of them were extremely strong.

This should be the very powerful gospel search and rescue team mentioned on the radio.

"Hello everyone." Andy wiped his hands on the worn and muddy suit, extended his hand enthusiastically and took a few steps forward to introduce: "We are coming from Jixi Town next door.

My name is Andy Hart, a local, I am a film director who is well-known in the industry, but you may not be familiar with it.

I wonder if you have seen "The Giant Man-Eating Crab"? That was directed by me."

God damn man-eating crab, as soon as I heard the name, Iger knew it was an extremely bad animal horror movie.

Since "Jaws", ferocious animals have basically been photographed without thinking of new tricks, and even dinner dishes like crabs have been shown jumping around.

While complaining, Iger understood that the director who made such a bad movie would not be a very great person.

"Hello, I'm Father Locke." Father Locke shook Andy's dirty and cold hand tightly.

"I'm Erica McCarron, a professionally trained security officer."

"I am Clyde Byrd, a communications power support engineer for a communications company. There are no power poles within a hundred miles that I am not familiar with."

"Hello, my name is Caitlin Diaz. I am, I am, I am unemployed. I worked hard and conscientiously, but that bastard boss kicked me out." Caitlin said this.

Unable to stop crying, Father Locke walked over, hugged her and patted her back gently.

"That's it, Father." Andy raised his heart to his throat and said to Father Locke: "We have encountered some difficulties, the kind of difficulties that we cannot face alone.

We sincerely hope to join your team and abide by any of your rules. We will be very, very useful, really.

We have overcome unimaginable difficulties along the way. It can be said that our experience can be turned into a live-action version of "Left 4 Dead". It is definitely a genuine performance. If it can be released, it will definitely be a big hit at the box office."

After Andy finished all his speeches, Father Locke said gently to the four people who were unable to hide their weakness: "Children, welcome to the gospel team, you can treat this place as your own home.

"

In the joy of escaping and tears of gratitude for being taken in, the four of them climbed into the bed of the pickup truck, then the pickup truck turned around and headed towards the mountain.

At this time, the four of them realized belatedly that the evangelical team's stronghold was not in the community, but in the church built on the top of the hill.

Sure enough, when they arrived outside the church wall, the four of them looked up and saw a nun standing guard on the bell tower holding a sniper rifle.

The combination of the holy nun and the murderous firearm did not create an incongruous sense of difference, but instead gave the four people a sense of tranquil beauty. At the same time, they also knew how the other party discovered them.

From the bell tower of the church, you can clearly see the movement within several kilometers. It is really an excellent strategic fortress. I love it so much.
