Chapter 504 The Return Journey on Foot
After a thorough examination, it was found that although Han Shuo looked frightening just now, he was actually not seriously injured.
It's just an electric shock to the body, no big deal. Han Shuo, who has undergone level 6 evolution, can handle it.
A dozen minutes later, he fully recovered from the paralysis, stretched his limbs, and sat up on the haystack.
Seeing his unusual behavior, Fatty, Xiao Zhao, and the others asked in astonishment.
"Brother Han, are you alright?"
Are you alright?
Are you really alright?
...
Han Shuo waved his hand and replied irritably.
"What's wrong? Do you only think it's normal if I get electrocuted?"
"No, no, look at what you're saying, how could we possibly be that kind of people?"
The fat man quickly shook his head, his strange thought process leading him to add another sentence from the back.
"By the way, since you survived being struck by lightning, will you awaken some superpowers related to lightning?"
As he spoke, he randomly poked at the air with his finger.
"Like me, I can use my fingertips to generate electric shocks to attack enemies. My god, that's so cool!"
"No! No! Apart from some muscle soreness, I don't feel anything else. Do you think I'm watching a sci-fi movie?"
...
After exchanging a few jokes, the atmosphere relaxed again.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. Let me check his wound first."
At this moment, Li Shurou brought over the medical kit and continued to bandage Han Shuo's wounds.
He was really pecked quite badly by those carrion birds just now...
After the bandaging was completed, everyone became serious. Han Shuo first glanced outside and, seeing that the entire flock of corpse birds had perished, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This time, they almost died here. The process of fighting was truly arduous and tortuous.
Then, he remembered Feng, turned around and saw Feng still lying unconscious on the ground, and asked him.
"Shurou, how is Feng? Is he out of danger?"
Li Shurou shook her head, her eyes filled with helplessness, and responded.
"No, his injury this time is far too serious. With the tools I have, I can only stop the bleeding from his wounds at the moment."
"His breathing is very weak, and his internal organs are probably severely damaged. Whether he can wake up depends entirely on himself..."
After saying these words, Han Shuo's mood became depressed again.
He was genuinely worried about Feng's injuries, but he also knew that Li Shurou had truly done her best this time.
After a moment of silence, he composed himself and began to speak.
"It's alright, Shurou, I believe Feng will wake up!"
...
"Splash, splash..."
It was already nearing evening, and the heavy rain was still pouring down.
On this day, each of them had some injuries, and the harsh environment made it unsuitable to continue.
Han Shuo decided to stay in the barn for the night and discussed with the others that if the rain stopped the next morning, they would start their return journey.
After more than a month of searching, Cheng Shenghong was still not found.
Everyone knows what this means.
They didn't say it, but they just didn't want to give up the last glimmer of hope...
After encountering the swarm of corpse birds, their tanker truck exploded and their entire cargo truck was destroyed. The little supplies they had left were insufficient to sustain their continued search.
Although Han Shuo felt reluctant, he couldn't focus all his energy on Cheng Shenghong; he also had to consider his other companions.
...
The night passed quickly, and the downpour stopped during the night.
After a torrential downpour, the entire land became damp.
At dawn, the sun slowly rose from the east. It was a fine day, and Han Shuo walked out of the barn in high spirits.
He looked up at the sky and saw the sunlight, saw warmth, and felt the hope to continue living...
The feeling of surviving a great battle and a catastrophe arose spontaneously.
"Phew~"
He took a deep breath of the fresh air outside, stopped thinking about it, got up, picked up his Tang sword, and went into the house next door.
The house had clearly been ransacked by survivors; it was in complete disarray, with nothing usable left, not even the bed.
Han Shuo looked at the mess in front of him and shook his head with a wry smile.
Then he went out of the house and came back to the big tree.
By this time, the tree struck by lightning was already badly damaged. He prepared to chop some wood and tie it together to make a makeshift stretcher.
That way, they could carry Feng on a stretcher on their way back...
...
Snap! Snap!
Han Shuo neatly chopped off pieces of wood, one by one.
Just then, the fat man ran over and asked.
What are you doing?
"Make a stretcher for Feng." Han Shuo continued working with his hands, without turning around, and simply replied.
"oh."
The fat man nodded, took out his large axe, and prepared to help.
"Fatty, we don't need you here. Go find some tools to tie the wood blocks together. I can chop them all by myself."
"Oh, okay, okay, okay."
After the fat man finished speaking, he turned around and quickly ran back into the barn.
While the two men were making the stretcher, Lao Wu and his group were not idle either.
They returned to the site of the truck explosion, hoping to find any remaining supplies.
Unfortunately, no matter how carefully they searched, they ultimately returned empty-handed...
The situation is not optimistic. There is only enough food for two days, and no means of transportation. If they want to return to the Silver Hair base, it will take at least 5 days to walk back.
However, no one was discouraged. After all, how could a person die from holding in their pee?
The wild environment is now being restored by nature, and when food is scarce, we have to go out and search for it along the way.
Fish from the river, small animals in the woods, wild fruits, and even wild grass could fill their stomachs, and they firmly believed that they could make it back to the silver-haired base alive.
At least, no one was killed in the battle, which was the best outcome for them.
...
Soon, Han Shuo and Fatty had finished making the stretcher out of wood.
He instructed everyone to pack their belongings and not waste any more time. He gently placed the unconscious Feng on a stretcher, and the group began their return journey.
The morning passed quickly.
Han Shuo's return route was a bit longer, and he led everyone to the vicinity of a city around noon.
He decided that for the rest of the journey, everyone should walk closer to the edge of the city.
Because the appearance of that flock of corpse birds yesterday made him feel uneasy.
He feared that if the group went into the wilderness, they would encounter the same situation again.
As they approach the city, if another flock of corpse birds appears on the horizon, they can immediately use these buildings for cover.
And you know what? Han Shuo's caution saved them from a major battle.
That afternoon, another large flock of corpse birds appeared from the horizon.
This time, the flock of corpse birds appeared in the west, but their flight direction was still eastward.
Seeing this, Han Shuo became even more certain that what he thought was correct.
The Zombie King is consolidating his aerial death forces!
