Chapter 56 Chapter 56 Zombies
"Hey, it seems like there's a car following us."
The old man driving the car saw through the rearview mirror that a black sedan was following them slowly, and the two cars always kept a distance between them.
Xie Liqing turned around and looked for a moment before saying, "Xiao Da, I can't see clearly. Look, it looks like the man from yesterday."
He Junxia turned around and looked back. When he saw the person in the driver's seat of the black sedan, he frowned slightly and paused, saying, "Don't worry about him."
The old man asked curiously, "Who is he? Why didn't he come to the meeting yesterday, but had to sneak around?"
He Junxia: "He's a gold-type psychic, but his character is not good, so he was rejected by Sister Dandan."
The old man understood and asked, "Do you want me to get rid of him? Even though I'm over sixty years old, I used to drive a taxi when I was young."
He Junxia shook her head: "No need."
Gold-type mutants can control all metal substances. Although the scope of the man's ability is uncertain, it is better to be safe than sorry. It will not benefit either side to break up now.
After all, the cars they ride in are mostly made of metal.
"OK."
The old man also knew the seriousness of the situation and continued driving steadily as if he didn't notice someone was following him.
Three cars drove slowly across the wide and empty road. The zombies on the roadside smelled a lot of fresh human breath and immediately hurried over with staggering steps.
However, zombies' movement speed and reaction ability are inherently slower than those of normal humans, making it nearly impossible for them to catch up with a moving car. Even if a few "lucky" ones manage to do so, they will only become the undead souls under the tires.
However, it wasn't long before they faced new challenges.
Cars are not omnipotent weapons. When a large number of zombies completely block the way forward, even a powerful steel behemoth will have to stall.
"Grandpa, the monster is coming. Haohao, don't let it eat you."
The three or four-year-old child was so frightened by the dark blue face hitting the car window that he threw himself into Xie Liqing's arms, his chubby little face losing all color.
Xie Liqing's heart softened.
Looking at the soft little ball in her arms, she couldn't help but think of her son when he was a child, about three or four years old, crying and asking for a hug after tripping over something.
Xie Liqing gently patted the child's back: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. The monster can't get in and eat our Haohao."
He Junxia turned his head to see what was happening outside, but unfortunately, the car was surrounded by ferocious zombies in front, behind, and on both sides, blocking every inch of space.
"Grandpa Wang, please open the window on my side."
"Okay."
The old man flipped a switch, and the passenger window slowly dropped to three-quarters of its original position. The smell of living flesh wafted out of the window, and the irritated zombies stretched their dirty, black, and bruised hands toward the car window.
He Junxia immediately threw out several fireballs. The scorching hot breath forced the zombies to withdraw their hands and move a small distance away from the car window.
"I'll go down and check the situation. You guys wait in the car. Don't open the doors or windows."
Xie Liqing was nervous: "Are we going down now?"
She looked at the huge group of zombies outside the window, feeling anxious but helpless. She couldn't say anything to stop them and could only hate herself for not being a mutant.
"Mom, believe me."
He Junxia pushed open the car door and got out. He controlled the flames to attach to the steel knife in his hand, and waved the steel knife quickly to disperse the zombies near the car.
He Junxia walked forward against the zombie horde, found the white car where Xia Dandan was, knocked on the window and asked her to open it.
Xia Dandan was surprised and said, "Xiao Da, why are you here? Oh my God, is there any problem back there? Hurry up and get in the car."
He Juanxia: "It's okay back there. I'm going to climb onto the roof of your car and use my supernatural powers to clear the way. Get ready and drive slowly."
Xia Dandan was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said immediately, "No, I'll do it, you get in the car."
There's no reason to let a child do something like this.
She doesn't have the nerve.
He Juanxia smiled and said, "It's okay, Sister Dandan, my special ability is more convenient."
As he said this, he quickly climbed onto the roof of the car and threw two fireballs at the group of zombies in front. The fireballs hit the zombies and burned a large area with crackling sounds.
He Junxia put out the flames before it got out of control. The zombies that survived the fire still didn't dare to move forward to surround them, leaving the newlyweds in the car stunned.
Mo Yuanjin asked his wife, "Can you do it too?"
Xia Dandan smiled "gently" and asked, "What do you think?"
He didn't dare to think.
Mo Yuanjin said embarrassedly, "No wonder the country says that fire-type abilities are the most powerful abilities. Brother Xiaoda is amazing."
Time was of the essence, so He Junxia was too lazy to get out of the car to get the crystal core. She asked Mo Yuanjin to drive straight ahead without worrying about the zombies that were burned to death.
The convoy started again, and the vehicles moved forward slowly. However, the black car following behind was in trouble. The zombies were swarming in front of the car, and the car was in a dilemma. It was difficult to move forward or backward, let alone catch up with the car in front.
Liao Wu tried to use his skills to trap the car in front, but the distance between them was too far and his supernatural power was out of reach. He could only watch the car go further and further away.
"grass!"
"Get out of here!"
Liao Wu was furious in the car, but who cared?
The other side
The convoy stopped again, and He Junxia finally found the culprit that caused the large gathering of zombies, a convoy of six cars.
For some unknown reason, these six cars were parked motionless on the main road, so that the nearby zombies smelled the human scent and surrounded them, turning the entire street into a sea of zombies.
He Junxia jumped off the roof of the car and went forward to check the situation.
The passengers in the car in front saw someone appear and immediately excitedly slammed the windows and made mouthing sounds for help.
He Junxia gestured for them to calm down, found the car in the front of the car, knocked on the window, and asked the people in the car to open the window.
After a moment, the passenger window opened a little.
He Juanxia asked with a cold face: "Why don't you leave?"
The heavy-looking man in the driver's seat wiped his face and said with a wry smile, "The tires are locked. We can't move."
He Junxia looked down at the tires and found that there were many zombie limbs stuck in the front and rear wheels of the car. No wonder the wheels were locked.
He Junxia's expression softened as he asked, "How long has it been?"
The man was helpless: "It's been almost an hour. When the tire just locked up, I got out of the car to clean out the stuff inside the tire, but a few zombies suddenly jumped out and scared me back into the car."
By the time he came to his senses, the zombies that arrived one after another surrounded the vehicle, making him lose the best opportunity to deal with the situation.
"Handsome guy, you are a superpower, right? Can you help me with this? How much does it cost?"
The woman in the back seat quickly took off the gold bracelet and gold ring on her hand and said, "Handsome man, please help us. We really have no other choice."
The two children beside her also looked eagerly at the older brother outside the car.
He Junxia smiled at the two children, took the gold ring from the woman's hand and put it in his pocket, then took out a pair of medical rubber gloves and put them on: "Is the engine off?"
He didn't want the tire to suddenly start moving while he was squatting down to clean it.
The man pulled out the car key and said: "Turn it off, turn it off"
He Junxia carefully cleaned the four tires of the car. After a long while, he stood up and said, "Try it?"
The man inserted the key into the keyhole and started the engine. The wry smile and worry on his face were replaced by surprise: "Alright!"
He turned to look at He Juanxia, his voice choked with sobs: "Handsome brother, thank you so much, you saved our family's lives."
"Handsome boy, just take the ring. I, Old Zhang, feel bad and embarrassed. You can also take this bracelet. It's solid. Our family is not short of money."
I can see it.
He Junxia thought about it and didn't refuse anymore. She took the gold bracelet and asked, "Which disaster relief base are you going to?"
The man chuckled and said, "Handsome guy, where are you going?"
He was determined to rely on this kind-hearted psychic. After all, if they encountered the same situation again, they would have no choice but to wait for death in the car.
He Juanxia raised an eyebrow and said, "I'm going to the Yunjiang Disaster Relief Base in the east. If it's convenient for you, you can follow me later."
The man nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay."
He Junxia gestured for them to close the car windows and turn to leave. The man watched him wield the flaming sword to disperse the zombies, his eyes revealing the joy and envy of surviving the disaster.
"That's what a real man should do."
He Junxia returned to the white car that Xia Dandan was riding in and cleaned their tires carefully - as it was also the leading car, there was also a lot of debris accumulated in the tires of the white car.
"Brother Mo, let's go around."
"OK."
He Junxia climbed up to the car window and directed the vehicle to go around the red car in front. The small truck and blue car behind him followed almost closely, for fear that more zombies would break in and cause trouble.
However, this time it was not zombies that were causing trouble, but cars from another convoy.
Seeing the white car behind them bypassing them and making a new lane, the red car in front of the white car also turned and tried to squeeze in, inserting itself between the white car and the pickup truck.
He Junxia didn't tolerate them and directly knocked on the front window of the red car with the tip of the knife, asking them to go back.
The driver of the red car trembled when he saw the tip of the knife stained with unknown liquid. He swallowed back the words of moral blackmail he wanted to say when he saw the boy's cold gaze.
The red car slowly backed to its original position and waited until the last blue car passed before turning around and following it.
He Junxia continued to use his supernatural powers to clear the way.
In a place where no one could see him, he quickly absorbed the crystal cores to replenish the energy in his body, but the human body is not a reservoir, it is not enough to just add as much water as needed. The new energy needs to circulate in the body before it can be used by the body.
The boy's rosy cheeks gradually lost their color.
If a college student who ran a thousand meters for a physical test would feel sore in the thighs and abdomen the next day, then He Junxia, who almost overdrew his supernatural powers, ran five thousand meters in a row and then played basketball for five hours. Every bone and every joint felt obvious soreness.
Fortunately, the most difficult part has passed, there are fewer and fewer zombies ahead, and he has time to rest.
After his complexion had almost recovered, He Junxia jumped off the roof and walked back. However, he suddenly stumbled when getting off the car, and his movements were not as natural as before.
He Junxia threw away his dirty gloves and coat, wiped the knife clean, wrapped it up and got into the car. Even though he tried hard to hide the abnormality of his body, his caring mother still noticed something wrong from his subtle movements.
Xie Liqing asked nervously: "Xiao Da, are you injured?"
He Junxia blinked, smiled and shook her head: "I'm not injured, I'm just tired from using too much supernatural power, I want to sleep."
Xie Liqing immediately whispered, "Go to sleep, mom won't disturb you."
She patted the noisy child in her arms: "Haohao, brother Xiaoda is going to sleep, let's keep our voices down, okay?"
"Uh-huh"
The child shut his mouth obediently, and the old man slowed down the car. The car was silent except for the sound of breathing.
He Junxia was originally leaning back in the chair with her eyes closed to rest, but unexpectedly she fell asleep without realizing it, and a soft snoring sound was heard in the car again.
Xie Liqing was heartbroken.
Only the son knows his identity best. Xiaoda doesn’t have the habit of snoring when he sleeps. He only does so when he is extremely tired.
She looked at her son's half sleeping face in the sunlight, and thought that the child solved the problem of zombie siege not long after going out, and her heart was sad and emotional.
Time flies!
In the blink of an eye, the child who would cry and ask his mother to hold him after falling down turned into a man who stands tall and proud.
Xie Liqing lowered her head and wiped away her tears.
She should be happy, why is she sad?
