Xu Xuening and the others followed Liu Zhiyuan and continued to move in the direction of the mission. Most women don't have a good sense of direction, and this also applies to Xu Xuening.
There were several times when they had to split up, and the last to arrive was always Xu Xuening's team, the team of the three special-ability people.
Seeing that Xu Xuening was more than an hour late in finding supplies again, Liu Zhiyuan had more and more wrinkles on his head.
"Alright, alright, everyone's here. Time for dinner. Xiao Xu, did you find anything delicious?" The car expert looked at Xu Xuening happily. In his opinion, for ordinary people to participate in these special missions, it was good enough if they returned safely. As for the lateness, an hour was normal. Maybe Miss Xu even ran to complete the mission.
"Well, let's eat." Xu Xuening looked at the base they had found. The houses nearby were rows of one- or two-story buildings, which looked like small villas. There were still some plants growing in each yard. The patch of land in the middle might have been used to grow vegetables, but they had long been picked by the survivors.
"Are we almost there?" Han Xiaoxiao looked at Liu Zhiyuan who was still studying the map. He leaned over to look at the map. The map was different from the ones he usually saw. There were many striped lines on it, but he didn't know what they were talking about.
"If everything goes well, we can get there in just four hours," Captain Liu replied.
When Han Xiaoxiao heard that there were still four hours left, she immediately lost interest.
Four hours, if he encountered zombies, it might take two or three days. If it were before, he would definitely not be able to do it in time. He also wanted to stop by the Kyoto Mall to buy some video game consoles.
But they have to hurry. My sister said that time is very tight!
"Let's eat first." Xu Xuening took out the heated meals and distributed them to everyone.
"Wow, spicy chicken!" Monkey took the lunch box. Bufan found that the lunch box was hot, and it was the vegetable rice he missed. The yellow juice and the aroma of spicy chicken made all of them excited.
After receiving the food, all the team members had the same expression as Monkey. They looked at the food in their hands with happiness on their faces, and tears of excitement were almost flowing down.
"I finally understand why the prayer in the Bible says that." Dr. Zuo suddenly felt inspired while holding the lunch box in his hand.
As Dr. Zuo's partner, Che Expert glanced at Dr. Zuo and asked, "Are you reading that Bible again?"
"No, I read it more than ten years ago. But there is a prayer in it that left a deep impression on me. It says, 'Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors...'" Dr. Zuo said, stretching out his hand.
He wiped his eyes. "It turns out that sometimes it's not easy to eat such a meal in a day. It's not that we can get a meal just because we work hard."
Everyone present deeply agreed with the current situation. Even the car expert who wanted to dislike Dr. Zuo's sentimentality and love of reading superstitious books had to agree with it.
He pondered for a moment, looked at Dr. Zuo's tears, and took out his handkerchief. "Mr. Zuo, let me wipe your tears. Let me see your book later."
"Thank you." Dr. Zuo took the handkerchief and wiped his tears without thinking. Halfway through, he suddenly stiffened. Looking at the handkerchief in his hand, he felt that it looked strangely familiar. "Have you washed this handkerchief?"
The car expert, who suffers from rhinitis, shook his head in confusion, "Of course not. Water is so precious these days!"
Dr. Zuo cried even harder, "You bastard, you gave me the handkerchief you used to wipe your nose. It's making me sick to death!"
…
Xu Xuening knew that the road ahead was becoming increasingly difficult, and they were even silent for a long time along the way.
Liu Zhiyuan wanted to lead them to avoid the black piles of corpses, but in the end they were still unable to avoid them. Everyone was still not mentally prepared by his simple words. When they saw the piles of black, charred corpses, most of the people in the team vomited.
Even Xu Xuening couldn't stand this atmosphere.
"There's something wrong with this ash." Liu Zhiyuan looked at Xu Xuening, who was still relatively calm, walked over and said in a low voice.
"What's the problem?" Xu Xuening asked.
"I suspect there must be corpses being burned in this area." Liu Zhiyuan looked at the gray object falling like snow, and felt more and more that something was wrong.
Xu Xuening looked at the dust drifting overhead and shuddered inexplicably. Has humanity reached this point?
"You don't find it strange. We've been walking for a whole day and haven't encountered a single zombie. This is simply not right."
Liu Zhiyuan nodded. "It's not that something's wrong, there's something fundamentally wrong. Those bodies didn't just pile up there on their own. Someone must have done that. But where are these people?"
Hearing his question, Xu Xuening looked at the falling dust and asked Zhang Ziqiang, "Use your utmost strength. Where is the sound coming from around here?"
Zhang Ziqiang twitched his ears and squeezed his eyes shut. Soon, he opened his eyes and pointed to a spot in the south. "There, there seems to be someone moving around nearby. I heard screams!"
…
"There is no food around here, what should we do?" Zhang Lili held the last bit of food she found and handed it to her companion. Seeing the four or five companions rushing towards her like starving ghosts, she took a step back and handed it to Qinghe next to her.
