Chapter 108 Heavy Snow is Coming
The explosion was enough to attract all the zombies within a few kilometers. Lu Weiyi had no time to waste and quickly returned to the room to find Cheng Hai huddled in the corner. He asked, "Who is Song Yu?"
Before the apocalypse, Cheng Hai was an honest white-collar worker. He thought that zombies were the limit of his life. However, he witnessed murders, gunfights and explosions. He was so scared that he held his head and shook all over.
Lu Weiyi didn't have time to waste with him, so he directly cut him with a machete. The pain made Cheng Hai sober instantly. He stared at the man in front of him for a moment, then knelt on the ground and cried, "Master Lu, please forgive me. I was just bewildered for a moment, and I didn't mean to betray Mr. Zhuang. Please, don't kill me..."
"Which one is Song Yu?" Lu Weiyi was not interested in listening to him chattering, so he made another cut. After two cuts, most of his shirt was torn open, exposing his chest and breasts, but his jade pendant was still not visible.
"Song Yu..." Cheng Hai turned his gaze outside and shuddered when he saw the corpses lying all over the place. He pointed at one of them and said, "The one wearing a black baseball jacket and with the longest hair."
Most of the people who followed Li Ji were released from prison with him. Their typical feature was a buzz cut, so when he mentioned long hair, he immediately locked onto a few of them. And there was only one person wearing a baseball uniform.
"Where is your space jade pendant?" Lu Weiyi asked again.
"Here...here..." Cheng Hai lowered his head and stammered. It was not known whether he was deliberately delaying time. However, Lu Weiyi had no patience. Besides, Li Zhuang and Antonio upstairs had obviously jumped down to the street and were waiting for him.
Lu Weiyi directly extended his mental power to cover Cheng Hai's entire body. After a moment, he found traces of space at the back of his neck. Turning around, he saw that it was indeed at the back of his neck.
After finding the space, Lu Weiyi did not hesitate and directly controlled the little green branch to strangle the man to death. At the same time, he slashed the jade pendant off the body with a knife. The jade pendant fell to the ground. Lu Weiyi quickly picked it up and put it in his pocket. At the same time, he tied up the little green branch and threw it neatly onto the road outside.
"Hurry up!" The wind and sand were so strong that they blinded the eyes. Li Zhuang said a word, and immediately swallowed a mouthful of dirt and sand. He spat twice. In the time it took Lu Weiyi to collect all four cars.
When passing by Song Yu, he used his mental power to probe into his space. Song Yu was a space ability user, and his space was much larger than Cheng Hai's, and could store many more things.
After Lu Weiyi took away all the things, he followed Li Zhuang and Antonio through the opposite building and chased in the direction of Lin Yimu.
As for the corpses left behind, the zombies attracted by the blood will naturally help them deal with them.
The three of them got into the car. The wind and sand had reduced visibility to the lowest level. It was hard to see anything more than ten meters ahead. The only sounds around were the wind and the sound of pebbles hitting the car body. No buildings were visible. It was easy to give people the illusion that this was the only car left in the world.
"I'll drive." Lu Weiyi could use his mental power to explore the way. He directly switched positions with Li Zhuang who was sitting in the stance, and threw him a walkie-talkie, "Contact them." I don’t know if it was because the distance was too far or the wind and sand blocked the signal, but I didn’t hear any news from Lin Yimu and the other person for a long time.
While Lu Weiyi was exploring the way, he also covered the surroundings with his mental power, observing at any time whether there were any figures of Lin Yimu and the other person. Logically, even if they changed the route, their destination should also be in the direction of the base, but he did not see any figures of Lin Yimu and the other person along the way, and he could not contact anyone through the walkie-talkie.
As night fell, the sandstorm was strong enough to blow people away. Li Zhuang shouted, "We can't go any further. We have to find a place to hide."
"Lin and the others must have hidden as well," Antonio said, looking at Lu Weiyi.
With such strong sandstorms, no one knew what they would face. Lu Weiyi anxiously slammed the steering wheel and sent his mental power to a street store on the side, "Go over there." As he said that, he drove the car directly to the entrance of the store.
As soon as the car door opened a crack, it was immediately blown open by the wind. Lu Weiyi immediately stretched out the little green branch and pulled it into the store, shouting to the other two, "Pull me and go in together."
Li Zhuang jumped over from the passenger seat and hugged Lu Weiyi's waist tightly. Following closely behind him was Antonio. As the three of them struggled into the door, Lu Weiyi turned around and parked the car, pointing towards the stairs, motioning them to go upstairs together.
The glass on the second floor had been blown apart, and the howling wind inside was no less than that outside. Fortunately, there was a small room, which should have been a small warehouse in the past. The enclosed room had no windows except for a door, so it became a safe hiding place.
"Huh...Ptah...Ptah..." As soon as they entered, the three of them closed the door and the first thing they did was spit.
Lu Weiyi took out a lamp from the space to illuminate the room, and sat on the ground in silence, listening to the whistling sounds outside. He was worried that Zhuang Mingxu would not be able to cope with it, and he was also worried that something might happen to Lin Yimu and the others.
"When the wind and sand stop, we will go look for them. The road is short, we will definitely find them." Li Zhuang patted Lu Weiyi on the shoulder, "Don't think too much. Now that we have time, we might as well eat something to replenish our energy."
Lu Weiyi nodded, took out a few bottles of water from the space, and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
"Just bread." Antonio was very worried about Dean at this time. If he didn't need to maintain his physical strength at all times, he would not be able to eat at all.
The three of them rinsed their mouths, and one of them took a piece of bread and ate it tastelessly.
The sandstorm continued until about ten o'clock in the evening, when it gradually died down. Snow particles began to be mixed in the flying dust. Lu Weiyi had Xiao Luzhi standing guard outside, and she discovered it immediately.
"It's snowing..." Lu Weiyi took out three down jackets from the space and handed them to the two of them.
"Snow?" Li Zhuang frowned.
Lu Weiyi nodded, but he was not in the mood to talk. He was really worried about Zhuang Mingxu.
The temperature in the closed room was just a little low, not cold enough to need to wear down jackets, but neither of them said much. They took the down jackets and covered themselves with them. Gradually, the cold air seemed to penetrate from all directions, and white mist began to appear with their breath. The two grown men could not bear it anymore, so they put on their down jackets lazily, but still felt cold, so they simply asked Lu Weiyi to take out a few quilts to wrap themselves up.
The three of them huddled together and dozed off until dawn.
Around five o'clock, Antonio was the first to open the door and go out to take a look. A cold wind blew in with snowflakes. Li Zhuang sneezed and reluctantly wrapped himself in the quilt. He squinted his eyes to look outside. Outside in the hall, strong winds were blowing heavy snow everywhere, and there was already a thick layer of snow on the road.
Antonio shivered and sniffed, "Hiss, the snow is falling harder. If it continues like this for another day we won't be able to leave."
He turned back to his room, closed the door, and asked Lu Weiyi, "Do you have any thicker clothes? I think it's minus ten degrees outside."
Lu Weiyi nodded, rummaged through the space, and took out three sets of fleece camouflage and three pairs of fleece combat boots. After the three of them changed their clothes, they all looked energetic. However, there were no camouflage hats, so they could only take out three knitted fleece hats. They looked a bit mismatched, but they were indeed warm and no one minded.
"Do you two feel uncomfortable?" Antonio changed his clothes, stretched his body, and asked the other two.
Li Zhuang shook his head. Lu Weiyi thought for a moment and asked, "Does it hurt a bit?"
"Yes, it feels like something has entered the bones, a tearing sensation," Antonio described.
It seems that the first batch of psychics have already reacted after the heavy snow. Li Zhuang didn't feel it because his ability was not as good as Antonio's. Then Liu Rui must have felt it more obviously than Antonio at this time. Lu Weiyi knew that he could not delay any longer.
"A little bit" Lu Weiyi's supernatural power was awakened after a heavy snow in his previous life, and he didn't feel anything in this life. But he knew that it wouldn't be long before the psychics would be in so much pain that their movements would be restricted. They had to find someone before that, or return to a safe place.
Lu Weiyi took out a loudspeaker from the space, placed it outside the second-floor window, and opened it: "Wenzhou, Zhejiang, Wenzhou, Zhejiang, Jiangnan Leather Factory has closed down! The bastard boss Huang He ate, drank, gambled, and owed 350 million yuan, and ran away with his sister-in-law. We had no choice but to use the wallets to pay our wages. The original price of the wallets was more than 300, 200, or 100 yuan..."
The evil sounds echoing through the street startled Antonio and Li Zhuang. They both looked at Lu Weiyi at the same time, "What are you doing?"
"It seems that there are no zombies." Lu Weiyi had only heard about it in his previous life that there were no zombies traveling around during heavy snow. Just now, he came out and saw the empty streets without any wandering zombies. He was still a little skeptical, so he thought of giving it a try.
If the sound can't attract the zombies, they can just use the loudspeaker to call people, which is definitely better than walking on the street.
Antonio and Li Zhuang both looked towards the street. Even if such a loud noise didn't attract zombies from far away, one or two from nearby would surely come over. Unfortunately, it was so quiet outside, with nothing there, as if they were the only three living creatures in the world.
"Then...what about those zombies?" Antonio frowned and looked around.
"Never mind him, let's find someone first." Lu Weiyi himself didn't know. Maybe he had the same reaction as the psychic.
"We'll use the loudspeaker to call people, one person per car," Lu Weiyi took out a map and pointed to the road Lin Yimu and the others took last night, and said, "One person, two streets. No matter if we find the person or not, gather at this location in three hours. Tell us now if you need anything." The three hours is the estimated driving speed based on the current weather. Under normal circumstances, it would take three hours to drive around these roads.
The three of them were a little anxious and hadn't eaten breakfast. They talked about things they thought were useful and set off with their bags on their backs.
The snow on the ground was already up to their ankles. If they hadn't been wearing military boots, the snow would have gone right into their shoes. Add to that the snowflakes were so big they made Lu Weiyi feel that the car might become difficult to drive by noon, even before night.
