Chapter 402
The road to the survivor base was littered with broken limbs and debris.
A large number of zombies were lying in disorder on both sides of the street. Fierce firepower was clearing the way ahead. In the gaps between the corridors on both sides, there were still endless streams of zombies chasing their convoy following the sound.
Looking at the crowd of zombies, the survivors' faces turned pale.
Being protected by Cheng Hui at the beginning of the apocalypse, these people did not realize the cruelty of the apocalypse.
But looking at the huge group of zombies, similar thoughts inevitably emerged in everyone's mind.
Could it be that almost everyone in the city is dead?
Faced with humans who were the same as them more than half a month ago, but have now become monsters chasing flesh and blood, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in their hearts.
Bang!
Cheng Hui clapped his hands. "Everyone, cheer up. We've experienced even more severe tests in the past. China's history has never been short of natural disasters and man-made calamities, but we've always persevered and thrived. I believe this time will be no exception!"
"Yes! They are just zombies! They can't reproduce. No matter how many there are, there will be a day when they will all be killed. I don't believe it. If I can't kill them all, there is still my son. If my son can't kill them all, there is still my grandson. Yugong can move mountains endlessly through his descendants, so why can't we do it?" Li Qiuqiu slapped his thigh and shouted excitedly.
"Sister...be gentle..." Ning Junfei said with a sad face.
"What's wrong?" Li Qiuqiu glanced at him. "I'm just trying to cheer everyone up. Can you please stop looking so depressed?"
"Okay..." Ning Junfei said aggrievedly: "But, sister, can you slap your thigh? It hurts..."
"But it hurts when you slap my thigh!" Li Qiuqiu said righteously.
Ning Junfei: …╥﹏╥…
Hold my poor self tight...
With the two of them making such jokes, the atmosphere on the truck became noticeably more relaxed.
During the time when everyone was trapped in the community, everyone was under great pressure. If Cheng Hui had not used his absolute force to ensure order in the community, there would have been chaos here a long time ago.
The Chinese people still trust the government, so when they learned that a country had established a safe zone, they were eager to move there immediately. They believed that as long as the country existed, the world could be saved!
In this world, no country believes as firmly as China that man can conquer nature. As long as people are still alive, there is hope for the future.
Using machine guns to clear the way along the way, it took the group about two hours to reach the safe zone outside the city.
Establishing the safe zone here is also a helpless choice. The city has a large population base, and after the disaster, the zombie base will be large. The number of weapons in the army is limited, and it is impossible to use them unlimitedly.
Because the safe zone can only be established outside the city to minimize the impact of zombies.
And because the army camp was built near the city, neither too far nor too close, this military camp became the base camp for local survivors.
After consultation, various government departments began to enter the city for rescue operations in a planned and regular manner, and the people rescued would be absorbed as quickly as possible. The original division of labor was completely destroyed, and now everyone who remained in the safe zone was required to perform some agricultural labor.
In the end times, food is the most important thing. Simply collecting food in the city is not enough to support the consumption of so many people. Now we can only rely on the land outside the city to start a new round of planting.
When Cheng Hui and his friends arrived at the base, they saw several long lines. All survivors had to be checked before entering the base.
Some people came from far away and were unwilling to wait any longer, and even had conflicts with the armed police soldiers guarding nearby.
Cheng Hui took a look from a distance and couldn't help but curse: "Idiot."
The man who had an argument with the armed police soldier was a fat man with a big belly. He was wearing clothes that looked very expensive. He had his family with him and a slim young woman by his side.
The woman had long hair draped over her shoulders, and her appearance was hard to see from a distance. The only thing that was noticeable was her pale face. I wondered if it was because she had applied too much foundation.
"Brother Cheng, what are you looking at?" Li Qiuqiu followed Cheng Hui out of the car and looked around curiously.
"Look over there, there's a fool who will pay the price soon." Cheng Hui smacked his lips. Although his spiritual awareness could not reach that place, his sharp senses allowed him to hear clearly the content of the dispute between the two parties.
Basically, the fat man felt that he was rich and powerful and qualified to jump the queue, so he wanted to enter the base early, but the armed police soldiers disagreed.
The armed police soldiers said that no one is allowed to enter without inspection.
The fat man was very dissatisfied and was declaring that he knew so-and-so... The armed police soldier stood opposite him with an expressionless face, and no matter how he pestered him, he just didn't move.
The fat man seemed angry and reached out to pull the other person, but the armed police soldier next to him opened the safety of the wooden weapon with two clicks, and the fat man immediately went limp.
"I want to complain about you! You are...you are bullying us ordinary people!" the fat man shouted in a timid manner.
Cheng Hui's mouth twitched, and he thought, "Don't insult the word 'common people'. If you, who have tens of thousands of dollars, are called common people, then what are we called when we have less than two hundred dollars? 'Poor people'?"
Forget it, let the poor be the poor. At least we are still alive, but it is hard to say whether the "common people" can survive.
Cheng Hui watched coldly from the sidelines. The young woman next to the fat man was acting strangely. From the moment they started talking, she had remained silent, her head lowered. Her long bangs covered most of her face, leaving only a slit in her hair revealing her abnormally pale complexion.
Moreover, from the group of people behind the fat man, there was a middle-aged woman with an arrogant look, who kept staring at the woman with resentment. As for the two young people, a man and a woman, the former was playing with her mobile phone with her head down, and did not show any tension of the coming end of the world, while the latter was looking around with disgust, as if she was standing in a garbage station, surrounded by pollution sources that could pollute her at any time.
Well... very good, it is true that birds of a feather flock together. This family all have the characteristics of cannon fodder.
Behind this family, there are several strong men with serious expressions and slightly bulging waists. They should be bodyguards. I just don’t know what motivation these bodyguards have to protect this family in the end times.
perhaps……
Cheng Hui looked at the car behind the bodyguards. It seemed that there were quite a lot of people crowded in it, both men and women, old and young. Could they be the bodyguards' family members?
But these actually had nothing to do with Cheng Hui. They had followed the lieutenant to the back of a long queue at the checkpoint.
After signaling everyone to line up here, the lieutenant took Cheng Hui and Lin Qingqiu to a special examination room.
The fat man saw this from a distance and immediately shouted indignantly: "Why can they cut in line?!"
The soldier across from him didn't even raise his eyelids: "That's an examination room for people with special abilities. If you have special abilities, you can go in there too."
The fat man was speechless. If he had super powers, he would have flown over and knocked the soldier away.
He knew how awesome people with superpowers were nowadays, but unfortunately, he hadn't awakened his superpowers, so now the only one he could rely on was his uncle.
His uncle used to be the director of a certain bureau, but he lost contact with them after the apocalypse. He felt that with his uncle's abilities, as long as he could survive, he would definitely have a place in the base. It was with this hope that he ran all the way here, just to curry favor with his uncle.
Although... his uncle used to be quite annoyed with him, but it was the end of the world, and they were still family after all, blood relatives, so his uncle had to take care of him, right? At least that's what he thought.
"Forget it, just wait a while, baby, don't worry, as soon as we get into the base, I'll go find my uncle and ask him to help you find your brother." The fat man softly comforted the woman beside him.
The woman raised her head slowly, her pale face devoid of blood. She grabbed the fat man's arm tightly, leaving deep marks on his hand.
The fat man hissed, "Hey, baby, don't pinch me, don't be so hard... baby... let go! Let go now!"
The fat man was pinched so hard that he almost cried, and he struggled desperately.
The middle-aged woman behind him was still sneering: "Hey, why don't you call me darling? Isn't that your sweetheart?"
The young man didn't even raise his head and continued with his game. But the young girl looked at the woman with disgust, as if she had seen something dirty.
The armed police soldiers immediately became alert. They seemed to have seen similar scenes before, and immediately raised their rifles and aimed at the woman.
"Ma'am, please let go."
"Ma'am, if you don't let go, we will use force," the soldier warned.
The woman finally slowly loosened her grip. The fat man quickly withdrew his hand, looked at his bruised arm, and his face changed drastically. He cursed, "You stinky XX, I meant well..."
"Sir, please stay away from here." The armed police relaxed a little because of the woman's behavior, and they couldn't stand it anymore when they saw the man swearing.
At this moment, the woman suddenly pounced on the fat man and bit him on the face.
The fat man screamed like a pig being slaughtered. The armed police soldiers immediately opened their guns and shot him in the head at close range. The fat man's face was immediately splashed with red and white unknown liquid.
The crowd around burst into screams again, and those who were a little closer couldn't help but run around, causing chaos, but soon the situation gradually returned to normal under the maintenance of the armed police.
Only the fat man was still screaming. There was a big hole on his face, half of his nose was bitten off, and most importantly... he was bitten by a zombie.
After the young woman was shot in the head, her innocent face was revealed. Black blood vessels appeared on her face, and her eyes were frighteningly red, typical signs of being infected by the zombie virus.
"Help... Help..." The fat man fell to the ground, struggling and waving his arms.
Unfortunately, his wife and children were already shocked by what had happened before. When they heard his call for help, no one offered a helping hand. Instead, they all retreated away, fearing that they would be implicated by him.
The fat man's face gradually became ugly. He pushed the woman's body away, stood up, and cursed: "You bunch of heartless people, if I hadn't provided you with good food and drink, would you be in this situation today? If I die, you can forget about it!" After that, he pounced on the middle-aged woman.
But before he could move, he was controlled by the armed police soldiers.
"Let me go! Let me go! My uncle is XXX. If you dare to touch me, he won't let you go!" The fat man struggled desperately.
The armed police soldiers remained unmoved and directly took him under control and locked him up in a special room.
He has been infected with the virus and is almost doomed to die, but there is still a certain chance that he can awaken his superpowers, so he is now just isolated alone, and will not be dealt with until he completely mutates into a zombie.
