Li Handong sat in the booth by the window, staring at the chandelier in the center of the booth, dazed, holding a pistol in his hand.
At this time, Acheng came to the opposite side of him and asked, "Brother, why didn't you kill a few more of those white-eyed wolves just now?"
Li Handong smiled bitterly and said, "Hey, that's a living person, how could you do it? Besides, there's only one bullet left in the gun. If you stay any longer, you'll be exposed..."
"Um, okay! I said, brother, why didn't you take out a gun earlier..."
"Acheng, let me ask you a question!" Suddenly Li Handong raised his head and said, "Do you think I did something wrong? If I hadn't taken them in and driven them away, maybe we could have persisted for a while...
"
Acheng opened his mouth, but didn't know how to answer.
Because he was also taken in by Li Handong. If he replies that Li Handong did something wrong, does that mean that even taking him in was wrong?
After thinking for a long time, he said, "Brother, you are too soft-hearted, which is very inconsistent with your name. There is nothing wrong with taking in. After all, we are all survivors and should support each other, but for those parasite-like people, brother, you
These parasites should have been screened and driven out earlier!"
"Do you think I look like the Madonna in disaster novels that readers hate?" Li Handong asked, quite self-deprecatingly.
Acheng did not answer the call.
But the silence said it all.
"Sure enough, Notre Dame Road did not end well in the end! It deserves it!" Li Handong laughed at himself again.
When Acheng saw Li Handong's dejected look, he changed the subject and asked, "Brother, what should we do next?"
"What to do? What to do?" Li Handong murmured to himself, and after a long time he said, "It's been so long, it's already past four o'clock, it seems that we can't go out today, tomorrow, tomorrow we must go out,
We will take advantage of this time to prepare and see if there is anything we can use!"
For several hours, Li Handong was thinking about and discussing with Acheng the details of tomorrow's outing.
It wasn't until late at night that the two of them curled up on the sofa and fell asleep.
I don't know how long it took before a loud noise came.
The two were awakened from their sleep.
"Brother, brother, are you there?" Acheng asked.
"Well, here we are! Acheng, did you hear something?" Li Handong asked.
"It sounded like there was an explosion somewhere."
As if to confirm Acheng's words, another loud explosion was heard.
Li Handong came to the window and lifted a corner of the curtain. He saw flames shooting into the sky to the southwest...
"There was an explosion in the southwest..."
He whispered and returned to the booth, lying down, "Go to sleep...it's so far away from us, and the fire can't burn it..."
With that said, the two fell into sleep again. At this moment, let alone a fire that couldn't burn them, even if the Aquamarine Star exploded, they would have no choice but to lie down and wait for death.
...
The two oil tankers, plus the combustible materials placed around them by Dawn, kept the fire burning for several hours. All night long, every wandering zombie in YD County was moving in the direction of the fire. Luffy, who was hiding in the car, would add fire from time to time to drive away the lingering zombies.
After daybreak, there were no more wandering zombies in the entire YD County.
At this time, the river in the southwest of the county was densely packed with zombies. The fire had been extinguished, and they were wandering around unconsciously again.
Some zombies walked to the river bank embankment, but were blocked by the 60-degree inclination of the river embankment. They had to return to the river and wander in other directions. What's worse, they slipped on the river embankment and then fell heavily on the river embankment.
Of course, there are also second-level zombies that have successfully broken through the obstruction of the river embankment and returned to the river bank.
But this is only a minority after all.
.......
In the city.
Acheng rubbed his hazy sleepy eyes, looked at Li Handong opposite, and sighed.
He looked at the curtained window, feeling a little melancholy.
Going out is easier said than done!
Thinking about it, he came to the window and gently drew the curtains. This was already a habit developed by the survivors.
"Huh?"
The situation outside made Acheng a little confused.
"Where are the zombies?"
He muttered to himself.
There was not a single zombie wandering around in the entire street! He even doubted his own eyes!
At this time, Li Handong also woke up faintly. When he turned around, he saw that Acheng had opened the window and poked his head out...
Li Handong was shocked by Acheng's behavior and thought he was going to do something stupid!
In the apocalypse, when people see no hope, they often take extreme actions. In the past few months, there have been three cases of people committing suicide by jumping from nearby high-rise buildings.
"Acheng, what are you doing?" Li Handong asked.
Acheng turned back and said, "Brother, the zombies outside are gone!"
"They were all attracted to the supermarket by the sound of gunfire!" Li Handong guessed.
"No, brother, I looked and the zombies in the supermarket are gone too!"
"Gone?" Li Handong wondered as he came to the window. Like Acheng, he opened the window and looked around. As Acheng said, all the zombies on the street were gone!
The two continued to investigate. The street was quiet, as if the zombies on the street had never appeared.
Li Handong turned back, picked up the toothpick box from the booth, and threw it out of the window.
The toothpick box rolled far down the street, making a lot of noise.
If it had been in the past, there would have been zombies coming after hearing the sound, but now, after a long time, they didn't see any zombies coming.
Li Handong was overjoyed and said, "Acheng, it seems that the fire yesterday attracted the zombies. This is the case here, and I think it should be the same around here! We should take this opportunity to leave here and go to the place I mentioned yesterday. That grain and oil store."
Acheng closed the window and nodded solemnly, "Okay!"
The supplies are running out, and if we don't go out, we will only starve to death, so we might as well take this opportunity to give it a try, and if we succeed, our bicycle will become a motorcycle.
Just as they were told, Li Handong and his wife wrapped their arms, legs and feet with the cardboard boxes and tape they prepared yesterday.
Facts have proven that this protective measure should not be underestimated. It is enough to save lives at critical moments.
After doing everything, the two quietly climbed out of the window, observed carefully, and walked slowly towards the designated direction.
After walking for a while, there was no zombie. The pace of the two quickened and gradually turned into running.
A few minutes later, they arrived in front of the grain and oil store unscathed.
The shop door was wide open, and after making sure there were no zombies inside, Li Handong got in.
Close to one wall of the grain and oil shop are neatly stacked bags of rice, and there is dried blood on some bags.
But the vast majority of them have not been contaminated.
On the other side is a row of shelves with some daily condiments.
Cooking wine, soy sauce, etc.
These are things that are sealed and not perishable.
The two were overjoyed, and after confirming that there was no threat inside or outside the entire shop, Li Handong hurriedly said, "Come on, let's pull down the rolling shutter!"
Acheng nodded happily.
Looking at the rice, soybeans, peanuts and other cereals all over the shop, Acheng smiled.
Sure enough, if you give it a try, your bicycle will turn into a motorcycle!
