Chapter 43 You Can’t Eat Me
Li Guangzong pulled Xu Yang to the middle of the corridor and made him lie down so that he could stretch his legs.
At the same time, I kept checking the alarm number on the smart meter to see if it was connected. However, after several attempts, both 110 and 120 were unavailable and the lines were constantly busy.
I don’t know if it’s because there are too many people calling the police, or if the situation has now spread to the police reception desk.
He called his home phone several times, but no one answered.
At this moment, his throat was a little dry due to nervousness, and the speculations in his mind became more and more serious. Finally, he had to force himself to stop thinking about it.
He concentrated on taking care of Xu Yang and dragged Xu Yang to the open space in the stairwell. Xu Yang's face was full of pain and he seemed to be mumbling something weakly.
Li Guangzong quickly leaned over and put his ear close to listen to him. After listening carefully several times, he could clearly hear Xu Yang calling out: "Cold, cold..."
Li Guangzong said "Ah?" in confusion, reached out to touch Xu Yang's neck, and immediately felt the same hot temperature.
"Is your body temperature still cold? If it were any hotter, a kettle of water would boil on you."
But even though he complained, Li Guangzong couldn't ignore Xu Yang's constant calls, so he could only look around to see if there was anything nearby that could keep him warm.
But this was not his familiar territory, and he didn't know where to get clothes for Xu Yang. He searched the area for a long time but found nothing, not even an ant.
Finally, he looked down at his short-sleeved and long-pants sports suit, and immediately shook his head violently to reject it, as if he had imagined something.
He only had this one layer on. If he took it off to Xu Yang, he would be naked. He hadn't risked anything like that. Besides, how much use could this little bit of fabric have?
Giving up the stupid idea, Li Guangzong began to look around.
The entire apartment building was shaped like a Chinese character "冂". He was standing on the horizontal line in the middle and could currently see the situation on his floor and the floors above him on both sides.
But it was obvious that apart from his special area, the situation in other places was not good. Screams, wailing and cries for help were heard everywhere, and countless aggressive zombies appeared in the residents' homes and at their doorsteps.
But he couldn't deal with so many zombies alone, and leaving this safe area to find clothes was definitely not a wise choice.
Involuntarily, his gaze shifted to the large steel door of Room 217, which was completely different from that of other residents, and he thought of the mysterious man in black and his magical abilities.
Li Guangzong's pupils trembled violently as he gazed at the door. There was an inky black Bagua diagram painted on the side of the door, which seemed to be shining under the sunlight.
Strange characters he had never seen before were engraved on the left wall and the right railing of the Bagua diagram. The ends of the characters on the stair railing were wrapped with red thread, and yellow talisman paper was wrapped on the thread.
He suddenly thought of the yellow talismans thrown by Zhuang Moxing. His gaze followed the red rope down to the stairs on the first floor.
Isn’t the area where the red rope is wrapped exactly the range that zombies can’t enter?
There was a master living in that apartment! And it was obvious that the master had been prepared for the current situation.
Thinking of this, a short video suddenly appeared in Li Guangzong's mind. Recalling the content of the video, he unconsciously grabbed his hair in regret.
A few days ago, he saw a video warning that the end of the world was coming and urging people to prepare supplies in advance.
The above was very detailed, but he treated it as a joke. Not only did he not read the whole content, he also mocked the other person.
He really didn't expect that everything said at the beginning of the video would actually happen, and actually happen to him!
If he had believed that video, prepared supplies earlier and stayed safely at home, would he not be facing the current predicament, and would he not even know whether his family members were alive or dead?
Was that video posted by this expert? He suddenly felt too embarrassed to ask for help. He had no right to...
Helplessness, embarrassment and regret filled Li Guangzong's mind. Seeing Xu Yang in more and more pain, and his skin actually turning from hot to cold, he was helpless and could only pound the ground with his fists.
Finally, he angrily grabbed the iron rod at hand and rushed downstairs, relying on the "invisible barrier" to frantically attack the zombies that could not get in.
"Zombies, zombies! Damn zombies!! Why did you show up? You harm those who don't want to become zombies, and even more so those who haven't become zombies!"
As the unlucky "gas buckets" fell one by one, Li Guangzong suddenly stopped. Aren't these zombies covered with clothes?
This sudden discovery at this moment brought a ray of hope into Li Guangzong's chaotic and helpless inner world.
Moreover, the zombies he killed were not isolated by the invisible wall. It seemed that the stairs only blocked the "living" zombies.
This makes it so easy for him to take off his clothes!
At this time, he didn't care whether the clothes on the zombies were clean or dirty, thin or thick, he just wanted to take off a few more sets!
Immediately, Li Guangzong, who was so desperate that he wanted to kill more zombies with him even if he died, quickly changed his motive for killing the zombies and swung the iron rod even harder.
He even used coquettish gestures to lure the large male zombie closer to the stairs.
He made full use of Zhuang Moxing's isolation formation, basically killing one by one as he lured them away, and stripping off a set of clothes for each one he killed.
Twenty minutes later, the zombies at the stairs had been aroused to the point of extreme resentment by Li Guangzong's shameless behavior!
But there is nothing we can do about him!
Li Guangzong spent all his energy, and was covered in blood and sweat, but he finally managed to gather a pile of clothes.
After gathering all the clothes, he didn't have time to rest and immediately handed them to Xu Yang above. As the layers of clothes covered Xu Yang, his bruised lips finally warmed up a little.
Feeling that Xu Yang's condition didn't seem like he was about to turn into a zombie, Li Guangzong felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.
Subconsciously, Li Guangzong moved Xu Yang's nest to under the window of Room 217, feeling that the closer to the Bagua diagram, the safer it would be.
Summer clothes are very thin. Even though Li Guangzong spent so much effort killing zombies to accumulate them, he only got a small amount of fabric.
At the same time, Liu Yu in the room was tidied up by Zhuang Moxing and lay on the clean and soft bed.
Reality shows that people have different fates.
Li Guangzong rolled Xu Yang over with great force and put him onto the "shop" he had carefully crafted.
It's called a "shop" but it's actually very thin and small, made up of just a few thin T-shirts. The area is so small that it only covers two-thirds of Xu Yang's big body.
The icy ground should have been the most suitable place in the summer. But for Xu Yang, who was afraid of the cold, the ground was so cold that he almost gave up and surrendered to the zombie virus.
But it's better than nothing, and it's much better than the previous conditions.
Li Guangzong was spreading clothes on Xu Yang one by one when he suddenly felt a burning gaze on his face.
Looking to the right, there were seven or eight young zombies gathered at the other end of the Bagua diagram, both men and women. They were all blocked by the formation and could not move forward.
Li Guangzong didn't have the energy to kill the zombies anymore. He looked at them angrily and said, "Go away, what are you looking at? I can't eat you even if I want to! I'm going to piss you off!"
