Chapter 390
These people are all residents of the community who are in their prime, both men and women, who were able to
A few days later, the team Cheng Hui stopped had more than 30 people.
These people are all residents of the community who are in their prime, both men and women. The fact that they were able to survive the initial mutation at least proves that they have good physical fitness.
Not everyone in the community is so selfish and short-sighted. Many people know that hiding at home is a dead end. At the very least, food shortages can force most people to come out.
Nowadays, shopping is very convenient and few people store large quantities of supplies at home. After five or six days, even if there is still some stock, these people have to consider the problems that will arise later.
Cheng Hui said there would be a rescue team, but it was hard to say when exactly. Moreover, even if we were rescued and taken to the so-called survivor camp, would we be able to eat and drink well?
Stop dreaming!
We are all adults, wake up and go out to collect food now, which is better than going out hungry later.
If they wanted to get out, they naturally had to get rid of the zombies at their doorstep first. So, led by Cheng Hui, these people began to deal with the zombies wandering around the community.
Although the residential area where they lived was composed of old-style houses, it was considered a high-end area back then, with walls and parking lots. Cheng Hui led them to clean up the area. At first, killing a zombie would make many people vomit, but after just a few days, everyone got used to it.
Being able to cut zombies into pieces without batting an eyelid... I can only say that humans are really adaptable.
As the strongest among them, Cheng Hui became the undisputed leader of this team with his impressive record of splitting a zombie in half with a single axe.
At the beginning, it’s not that no one was thinking about using tricks to replace him, but the problem is... facing zombies, the problem can’t be solved by just talking. Without real skills, it will only make you a laughing stock.
"Brother Cheng, the community has basically been cleaned up. What should we do next?" Li Qiuqiu asked, casually wiping the blood off his face.
Cheng Hui looked at Lin Qingqiu, "What do you think?"
Lin Qingqiu pondered for a moment and said, "Everyone's food should be running out. We'd better try to find some food."
Li Qiuqiu leaned against the wall to rest and touched his chin: "There are quite a few small supermarkets nearby, you can go and have a look, but..."
She didn't finish her words, her eyes moving around the surrounding buildings.
Cheng Hui understood what he meant. In fact, there were quite a few people who survived in their community. There were probably more than a hundred people. But looking at the pitiful twenty or so people at the scene, he understood that most people did not dare to go out and kill zombies.
Even if we exclude these twenty-odd relatives, there are still at least twenty-odd households where no one has left. Cheng Hui walked through every building. In some places, even though he knew there were people at home, they refused to open the door, or even pretended not to. Cheng Hui didn't know what to say.
What made Cheng Hui smile bitterly was that these people did not have the courage to kill zombies, but they had the courage to steal things. After they cleaned up the houses, they would usually take out the food and distribute it to these people, but they did not touch the rest of the things. As a result, when they went there again the next day, they found that some houses had been turned upside down and some usable things had been taken away.
Cheng Hui was so angry that he laughed, but he didn't have any good way to deal with people who liked to take advantage of others.
You wouldn't say these people are extremely evil, but no one would be happy if they always take advantage of them.
Li Qiuqiu came over and whispered, "Brother Cheng, if we go looking for food, it's best to leave some people behind to guard us, so that no one will take any bad notice."
"Hmm?" Cheng Hui lowered his voice. "What's going on? What news did you hear?"
Li Qiuqiu has a cheerful personality. Because he works in the property management, he is very familiar with the residents in the community and is an expert at finding out all kinds of information.
She heard a lot of "gossip" from some uncles and aunts.
Because Cheng Hui and his team have almost dealt with the zombies wandering outside the community in the past few days, some people have bravely come out. They didn't dare to leave the community, but it's good to walk around in the community and exchange information with each other. After all, humans are social animals. If they stay at home for a long time, they will definitely feel bored. Chatting with neighbors can also relieve tension.
Li Qiuqiu took the opportunity to strike up a conversation with those uncles and aunts, and gave them some snacks, so he was able to find out a lot of information naturally.
It had only been five or six days since the apocalypse, but the hundred or so people in the community had already been thrown into chaos again. Cheng Hui had witnessed the diversity of human beings.
"If you have something to say, say it. Don't get so close." Lin Qingqiu pulled Li Qiuqiu away with an unhappy look on his face.
Li Qiuqiu had absolutely no temper. This team had two masters, Brother Cheng and Brother Lin. Everyone had witnessed their fighting prowess, but Brother Lin's jealousy... wow, that was simply breathtaking.
The fact that Brother Cheng and Brother Lin were a couple had long been known to everyone, given their unabashed lack of concealment. The average age of the team was relatively young, and they were quick to accept the situation. No one complained, but behind the scenes, everyone would occasionally complain that Brother Lin's possessiveness was truly... over the top.
Although Brother Lin is super handsome, if I had a girlfriend as beautiful but super jealous as this, that would also be... great!
The singles in the team would often shed tears of jealousy towards Brother Cheng...
Brother Cheng must be so lucky to have such a beautiful wife!
Cheng Hui: ...
Cheng Hui found it funny to be teased openly or covertly by everyone. He thought to himself that these people were only happy with words. If they knew that he dared to have other thoughts, he would really be killed by Lin Qingqiu, and then they would probably not envy him anymore.
Lin Qingqiu's love is exclusive and obsessive. If you want to get along with such a person, you must use softness to overcome hardness. You can't completely let him go, nor can you be too cold. In short, you have to find the right balance.
Moreover, the most important thing to be Lin Qingqiu's lover is to have a big heart. Otherwise, anyone who falls in love with this control freak will not have a good ending.
Cheng Hui felt very happy. As expected, no one is worthy of Qingqiu except me.
"Ah Hui?"
"Hmm Yu Yanshan?"
"What are you thinking about? You're smiling so obscenely..." Lin Qingqiu had a strange expression on his face. He always felt that Cheng Hui's smile just now was very... hard to describe, a bit obscene.
"No, you're seeing things." Cheng Hui's face immediately turned stern. What YD? It doesn't exist!
Lin Qingqiu successfully pushed Li Qiuqiu away, and his possessiveness towards Cheng Hui was clearly shown. As for the others... they were all used to it.
Who made Lin Qingqiu so pretty? Whatever a beauty does is right!
This group of people are clearly obsessed with looks.
"Brother Lin, let's go find some food. How do we divide it after we bring it back?" Li Qiuqiu was pushed away and came over again. This time, she came to Lin Qingqiu's side.
Lin Qingqiu pushed her away with a finger with a look of disgust: "Keep your distance, I have a family."
Li Qiuqiu couldn't help rolling her eyes and said, "Okay, okay, you are a good woman, I'll stay away from you, okay?"
She took two steps back and said, "Should we share the food with those people?" She pointed towards several buildings not far away.
There were many rooms with windows there, but with Lin Qingqiu's eyesight, it was not difficult to see that there were people hiding behind many of the windows, staring closely at them.
They had discussed the topic of going out to find food a few days ago, and once the team members went back and told about it, it spread throughout the community.
Many people were talking about this. Some wanted to go along, while others wanted to reap the benefits. Cheng Hui and Lin Qingqiu also heard a lot of news. The funniest one was that several families actually thought that since they were all from the same community, the food they found should be distributed equally.
When Cheng Hui heard the news, he thought he had misheard.
What the hell? Equal distribution?
They are not willing to give up a single hair, but expect others to fight for their lives for the food. These people are not good-looking, but they are quite beautiful.
At that time, Cheng Hui had announced that anyone willing to follow them out to look for food could get a share, but those who just sat back and enjoyed the fruits of their labor would starve to death.
It’s the end of the world, no one will pamper you.
Whose life isn't life? Oh, only your family's lives are precious, and everyone else's are worthless?
If you want to have a full stomach, work hard. Those who don’t work shall not eat!
Cheng Hui’s rules are very simple. Those who are willing to follow them can follow them to find food. Cheng Hui will not force those who are unwilling to follow them. They can go wherever they want, but just don’t follow them.
If someone deliberately wants to take advantage and insists on following them, don't blame Cheng Hui for not giving them face.
Cheng Hui is a good guy, but he's definitely not a pushover. Furthermore, Lin Qingqiu is behind him. Want to take advantage of the Demon Lord? Are you prepared to pay the price?
They completely cleared the zombies in the community this morning and planned to go out looking for food in the afternoon.
Cheng Hui calculated that the morning's work was not too hard and everyone still had plenty of energy. However, it would be best to replenish food as soon as possible. After all, there were many survivors around besides them. If the supermarket was ransacked by others, they would have to go to farther places to look for food, which would greatly increase the danger.
Just like that, around one o'clock in the afternoon, Cheng Hui and his companions drove two cars and rushed out of the gate of the community.
A large number of zombies piled up at the door were knocked away. After they went out, someone quickly closed the door. The few zombies that squeezed in were skillfully dealt with by everyone. Looking at the cars in the distance, soon even the exhaust fumes could not be seen, and everyone returned home reluctantly.
After everyone left, a door quietly opened in a corridor of a certain building. The person inside stuck his head out, looked around, and found no trace of other people, so he walked out quietly.
He quietly came to another floor and looked at the door of a certain household with a jealous look.
"Why should you be able to eat and drink your fill while I have to starve? Pah! Only a fool would kill zombies! It's so dangerous, you might even die. I'm the smart one."
After saying that, he came to the door of the house he had been staring at before, put his ear to the door, listened for a while, and heard no movement, so he took out tools from his arms and started to pry the lock.
Soon, the lock opened and he quickly slipped in.
Then, a woman's panicked voice came from inside the door: "Who are you?... Uh-huh..."
Bang--
The door was closed tightly, and all the evil was locked inside the door.
No one knew that on this seemingly peaceful afternoon, an extremely brutal crime had occurred.
