"Brother Xingfu, is there something unspeakable about this matter? If you don't want to tell me, I won't continue to ask you."
When Gu Zhuo saw that Ou Ming had been silent, he wisely stopped asking any more questions.
"Ou Ming, otherwise just tell them about this. We can't keep relying on them to give us food relief. They can't stay here forever. When they leave, we will be cut off from the source of food again.
.”
Ou Ming's wife worriedly said to him next to him,
"It's okay for the two of us to suffer a little, but the little one is also hungry with us..."
Xiaoxiao is their daughter's name.
Hearing this, Ou Ming lowered his head and looked at Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao had indeed been full and hungry for the past few days, and he was already somewhat malnourished.
Picking up Xiaoxiao and sitting on his lap, Ou Ming glanced at her distressedly. Then, he raised his head, as if he had made up his mind, and said to Gu Zhuo:
"Brother, I want to ask you one last thing. Other brothers won't make things difficult for you."
Seeing Ou Ming's serious expression, Gu Zhuo also sat upright and asked:
"What's up?"
"Can you give me some weapons, preferably a gun! My shotgun is useless at all. The bullets in it are all lead bullets and can't cause much damage at all!"
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo raised his eyebrows. It wasn't that he didn't want to give Ou Ming weapons, but he had to ask clearly what happened. He truthfully told Ou Ming what he was thinking.
After hearing Gu Zhuo's thoughts, Ou Ming knew that he could no longer keep this matter in his heart, so he told the whole story.
It turned out that on that day, Ou Ming drove overnight to the safe house, not only his wife and children, but also two other people.
One of those two people is his best brother Dongzi, and the other is Dongzi's wife.
The five of them were living well in the safe house. Although the space was a little crowded, fortunately, the food was sufficient.
Ou Ming not only arranged the bedrooms of several people underground, but the most important food storage warehouse was also right next to their bedrooms.
There was enough food stored there for them to last for two years.
I originally thought that as long as I survived the cold winter, the biggest difficulty I faced was simply not being able to farm. Who would have thought that one day, an unusual weather change suddenly occurred: a blood moon.
On that day, both Dongzi and his wife became unwell. Ou Ming initially thought they had some infectious disease and wanted to find some medicine for them, but Dongzi felt that something was wrong. In order not to harm the brothers and their family, he took the initiative to treat them.
I am isolated in my bedroom with my wife.
Not only that, when he was in extreme pain, he used the last bit of strength to seal the bedroom door.
At that time, Ou Ming did not realize the seriousness of the matter at all, and he wanted to forcefully break open the door and deliver medicine to Dongzi inside.
Who would have thought that Dongzi and his wife, who were dying, suddenly came back to life, and their bodies were covered with black blood. They frantically tried to break open the door and attack Ou Ming.
Ou Ming was startled, but he still didn't give up and still wanted to talk to Dongzi. At that time, he thought they were just sick, but they would definitely be cured.
After Dongzi became very aggressive, although Ou Ming didn't want to give up on them, he still had a wife and children, so he had no choice but to seal up the entire basement. He himself wore protective clothing and a protective mask every day, and went to observe every day
The situation of Dongzi.
But his condition got worse day by day, and in the end he couldn't even look like a human being. He just screamed in the basement every day, like an evil ghost from hell.
Until one day, because the entire basement was sealed off, Ou Ming's family had eaten all the food on the ground, and the family of three was about to starve. Ou Ming had no choice but to go out to look for food one night.
He originally thought that the night would be safer, and that the darkness would hide his movements. Even if he encountered any survivors who blocked the road, he could escape from tracking by relying on his familiarity with the terrain.
But he only considered human factors, not monsters like the Fuyuko couple.
Ou Ming went out at one o'clock in the morning. When he went out, there was silence outside the safe house. He did not choose to drive, but walked out because the noise of the car was too loud and he was afraid of attracting the attention of other survivors. Also.
This unintentional move saved his life later.
He walked in the dark toward the lake. He made several trap boxes and tried his luck to catch some wild rabbits and wild mountain rats. He remembered that there were always many wild rabbits in this area.
As soon as he walked not far from the edge of the lake, he heard a series of low roars. The roars were exactly the same as those made by Dongzi and his wife in the basement. For a moment, when he heard this sound, Ou Ming thought it was
Dongzi and his wife also ran out.
His heart was shaken, and he subconsciously hid behind the nearby hill and looked out.
At this glance, he saw a scene that he would never forget until his death.
On the road outside, there were dozens of monsters that looked exactly like the Dongzi couple. The moonlight shone on their black skin, and their black skin scales shone like black pythons.
They gathered together and were frantically attacking the survivors in a car.
Ou Ming didn't know why the survivors parked their cars on the road in the middle of the night. Maybe they, like him, were out looking for food.
But their luck was obviously worse than Ou Ming's. The two survivors were sitting in the car, and the monsters surrounded the car and smashed the door.
There was only a sound of glass being broken, and the monsters violently smashed the car window glass, and then swarmed into the car.
"Bang bang bang!"
Ou Ming heard several gunshots, and he swallowed. At this time, his mind went blank. He looked towards the car tremblingly.
Ou Ming clearly saw that the bullet hit the monster's head, but after the bullet was embedded in its head, the monster's movements did not stop at all.
There were several more continuous gunshots, but the gunshots had no other effect except attracting more and more monsters.
"Ah! Ah!..."
Soon, the sound of gunfire was covered up by the screams of the two survivors. The monsters all crowded into the car, swarming the small car, and feasted on the two survivors inside.
Ou Ming was frightened. He stood there blankly, his back soaked in cold sweat. He secretly prayed that the monster would not find him, never find him...
In this way, he hid behind the hill all night.
It can only be said that he was lucky. After the group of monsters killed the two survivors in the car and left them with only two skeletons with broken pieces of flesh, they wandered in place without noticing the hiding people.
Ou Ming.
It was not until daytime that the monsters dispersed to avoid the sun.
It was then that Ou Ming realized that it was no longer safe at night, and only during the day was safe.
When talking about the situation that day, Ou Ming still felt frightened and frightened from the bottom of his heart. He had dreamed of scenes of monsters eating people countless times at midnight, and would wake up from bed covered in cold sweat and screaming.
It was during that incident that Ou Ming knew that the Dongzi couple locked up in the basement would sooner or later become a hidden danger.
Afraid that they would rush out of the basement, Ou Ming sealed the road leading to the basement. When sealed, it also meant that the road leading to the food warehouse in the basement was also blocked.
But even though the passage was sealed, there was a knot in the hearts of Ou Ming and his family members. It seemed like the sword of Damocles hanging above their heads. This sword would come down and strangle them all.
This explains why Ou Ming was in such an embarrassing situation despite having stored so much food. After listening to Ou Ming's entire narrative, Gu Zhuo squinted his eyes.
"Brother, I have no choice. I have to fight. Dongzi and the others... No, our family will not be able to survive until those two monsters die. Even if we survive, we will always live in the shadow...
"
Ou Ming was trembling. He had never shown such a desperate and timid expression in front of people other than his family before. He grabbed Gu Zhuo and said,
"Brother, please, give me a gun. I'm going to fight those two guys. I have to fight them..."
All the emotions that had been suppressed for many days burst out at this moment, and Ou Ming finally couldn't hold it in any longer. He was the head of the family and a man. He should not appear afraid at ordinary times and must act extremely brave.
But before this foundation, he was just an ordinary person who was afraid and cowardly.
