Chapter 318 I Can Die Again
"Xin Huan, I just found the county magistrate's study. What a bastard! The study is full of gold, silver and jewelry, which is simply not something the county magistrate can afford with his salary."
There is also an open secret room in the study. It must be where the person escaped and tried to take away the treasure, but was scratched by the zombies and turned into a zombie.
With such a county magistrate, the yamen runners are not much better. They are either in cahoots with the corrupt or have nothing to do with the matter. They are all fat and bloated, and cannot defeat the zombies at all. They become one of the zombies or food in their stomachs.
She also found several account books that proved that the county magistrate was corrupt, had colluded with local profiteers, exploited the people, and could redeem a murderer from prison for 100 taels of silver.
Later, Zhu Linlang gave all the gold, silver and jewelry to Lin Xinhuan in exchange for some food to provide for the survivors. The main point was that nothing was wasted.
"It's a good death, it's really gratifying."
On the way back, Zhu Linlang stabbed the dog official several more times.
After dealing with the zombies, the guards all gathered around the kitchen and refused to leave. The whole kitchen was packed with people because the food smelled so good.
Assigning two people to do the job of peeling garlic is amazing!
Lin Xinhuan only needed to add the seasoning, and all other work was taken away by the guards.
"Brother Qi, can you smell the aroma of meat?" The person who spoke had an intoxicated look on his face, breathing hard into the only air vent in the cellar.
Even though the man called Qi Ge had most of his face covered, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed, one could tell that he disliked him. How could the smell of feces and urine mixed with fermented sauerkraut in this cellar be good? Would Shi Tou be hallucinating because of the stench?
Thinking that my brother would consider shit and urine delicious in the future, I felt disgusted.
"Brother Qi, there really is someone cooking. Come and smell it. This dish is even better than our Fatty Wang from Miaoxiang Pavilion. With meat, oil, and sugar, how can it not taste good?"
It seems like I saw the cooking process with my own eyes.
"What a nice smell! Is anyone still alive? Where did the meat come from? Has anyone come to save us?"
Several "corpses" that were originally leaning against the wall suddenly came to life, and one person squeezed in, filling the ventilation openings.
"Auntie Hua, don't crowd me. I can only smell pickled cabbage."
"Sauerkraut? Don't you love sauerkraut? If it weren't for the sauerkraut cellar in my house, you would have turned into monsters. You have to pay me later."
Aunt Hua used to have an imposing figure, but because of hunger, she lost countless pounds. Some time ago, she must have been very happy, because she hated having a hunchback and waist, and she could not lose weight no matter how hard she tried. Now she has lost half the weight.
He touched his thin, sunken cheeks and cried, "This is my favorite stew. If I had known this day would come, I would have eaten it all.
Let me have one more bite before I die, and I will have no regrets. Now I am almost meat in the monster’s mouth, and I have to eat it raw, which is the most unpalatable way to eat it.”
The place where Aunt Hua and the others were was Aunt Hua's sauerkraut cellar. She made a living by selling sauerkraut. When the disaster happened, seeing that they could not escape, the helpers, Aunt Hua, and the neighbors all ran in to take refuge.
Listening to the wailing outside, several people were glad that they reacted quickly and hid in time. The zombies could not find the entrance to the cellar, and the pungent smell of sauerkraut masked their human scent, so they gradually dispersed.
They waited for rescue in the cellar, filling their stomachs with sauerkraut. Normally, sauerkraut is very delicious as a condiment, but no one can stand eating it as a meal every day. It doesn't make them feel full and it tastes sour.
Without water, they could only drink fermented sauerkraut juice, and they all turned into wilted sauerkraut.
Aunt Hua is probably going to never love sauerkraut again in her life, so let someone else be given the title of Sauerkraut Xishi.
"Hey! Someone come quickly! I'm here, sir."
This roar did not attract anyone, but the zombies with more sensitive hearing gradually gathered around. They saw the zombies through the small holes, pinched their mouths tightly, and dared not shout anymore.
"Brother Qi, what should we do? Wuwu, mother and father, I don't know what's going on now."
When this topic is brought up, sadness fills the entire cellar. I'm afraid that my loved ones cannot escape the monster.
Yao Qi dug his fingernails into his palms. "No matter if they are from the imperial court or not, we have to rush out. Otherwise, there will be no chance of survival."
In the cellar, there is only one way out: death. He has not married yet and does not want to die. He has no relatives or friends, and his biggest dream is to get married, have children, and have a family.
Aunt Hua silently held the child's hand and ate sauerkraut with the adults for the past few days without crying or making a fuss. She even comforted herself: the child is still young and should not die in this dark cellar.
"I support it. Our Dabao will definitely get out alive."
"Mom, we have to live together." Dabao has already lost his father and doesn't want to lose his only relative again.
The others agreed to rush out because they were worried about their families.
On the other side, Lin Xinhuan and her friends were enjoying their meal, unaware that their delicious meal had attracted the surviving people. An invisible struggle took place between their chopsticks. Zhu Linlang let go of her reserve as a girl from an aristocratic family and used her chopsticks with great precision, causing Lin Xinhuan, who had already learned to eat slowly, to find that the plate was as clean as a new one when she picked up her chopsticks again.
Remind myself to separate the food from them next time I eat.
"Dabao, run!"
"Auntie Hua."
"Cut it, cut it."
The sound came from the next room. Lin Xinhuan and Zhu Linlang looked at each other: There is a living person.
"Chang Yuan, take a few guards to take a look." The guard who knew martial arts took a deep breath, jumped onto the roof and headed towards the direction of the sound.
Lin Xinhuan was too envious. No one in Medical Valley knew martial arts, including her.
But she had the tools. Technology changed life. She easily brought a wooden ladder from the supermarket, and the two of them successfully climbed onto the roof with the help of the ladder.
He clung to the eaves and moved forward little by little. He did not have the graceful posture of the guards in front. The guards who were protecting him scratched their heads and asked: Why don't the ladies let them take him up? The ladies must have their reasons for doing this! Continue to protect him and don't fall down.
Lin Xinhuan secretly made up her mind that she would become a martial arts master in this life!
The two silkworm babies twisted to the other side of the wall, and when they looked down, they saw the melee below. Some people were holding pickle jars, some were holding kitchen knives, and some were holding clotheslines to fight with the zombies. Their expressions were fierce, but the damage to the zombies was extremely small. After all, how could ordinary people kill people?
Moreover, the equipment is not powerful enough, and even if you have the heart to kill zombies, you can't do anything about it.
If the guards had not arrived in time, they would have become part of the zombie army.
"Xinhuan, look, there are still living people there."
From a high place, they saw other people fighting zombies. It seemed that they had heard the noise and came out to fight for a chance of survival.
Seeing that the other group was at a disadvantage, Lin Xinhuan shot an arrow and killed a zombie without saying a word.
Zhu Linlang: "Come to the county magistrate's office quickly. The guards will open the door and prepare to receive you."
"Yes, Miss!"
