Qin Qing actually didn't want to go with the troops from the beginning, but Zhou Shan was the one driving just now, so she didn't know what everyone was thinking.
He didn't say anything to stop them. Seeing that everyone seemed lost in thought, he said calmly, "Everyone, just follow the main group. At least your safety will be guaranteed. I still say what I said before. If you want to leave, I won't stop you."
In her previous life, she and Zhao Chunze had also evacuated with an army. At the beginning, the army distributed food to people for free, but they would definitely not starve to death, but they would not be full either.
If she didn't have space, she would definitely think that following the troops was the best option. Therefore, she didn't object to Li Xiong and his team's choice.
"Qin Qing, you have the final say on this team. We'll go wherever you go!" Wang Xiaobao answered seriously when he heard Qin Qing say this.
Zhou Shan also nodded and said, "Following the army's car was a subconscious action at the time. In fact, we have enough food and supplies. We want to go to the army just for safety. However, if we can get some weapons, it would be the best!" Thinking of the group of zombies being shot away just now, Zhou Shan shook his head with a little regret.
Li Xiong, upon hearing Wang Xiaobao and Zhou Shan's words, immediately swallowed his words, intending to persuade everyone to go to the base. After all, since Qin Qing was unwilling to go, he inexplicably felt that her decision must be the right one.
"Qin Qing, why don't you want to go to the base with the troops?" Li Xiong tried to hold back, but still couldn't help but ask.
Qin Qing was silent for a moment before he said, "If you want to survive in this apocalypse, hiding is useless. The best way is to face it head-on. Also, I want to know if the crystal cores in the mutant zombies' heads are really useful for superpowers."
It was then that everyone realized that their biggest purpose in coming out this time was to get the mutant zombie's crystal core. If they followed the army, would they have to tell everyone about the crystal core?
And the most important point is that they still don’t know whether there are other people like them who have survived after being injured by zombies and have superpowers!
What if others don’t have it, but they do? Will they be treated as monsters like zombies and captured for experiments?
Thinking of this, Li Xiong's last bit of thought was shattered.
Only Shen Kexin, hiding behind the van, was filled with anxiety. She couldn't understand why Qin Qing and the others didn't want to go to the base even if they had more supplies. They would eventually run out of food and could be taken to the base. At least they wouldn't have to run around outside in fear.
However, when everyone else said no, she subconsciously kept her mouth shut and didn't object. Her being on the team was a credit to Qin Qing. If she insisted on going to the base despite Qin Qing's disapproval, she'd probably end up like Fang Fang.
Li Xiong was originally worried about how he would explain to Captain Lu, but he didn't expect that reality would not give him any chance. Because in the middle of the night, they were surrounded!
Qin Qing woke with a startled heartbeat. She listened carefully but heard no sound. It was just too quiet, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. But a faint stench of decay wafted on the wind.
Zhou Shan, who was on night watch, saw Qin Qing get out of the van and hurried over, asking in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Qin Qing saw soldiers patrolling near the truck across from her, but the throbbing sensation she'd felt earlier only grew more pronounced. She clutched her chest and said gravely, "I sense something's wrong. Get everyone up and get out of here first."
Seeing Qin Qing's serious look, Zhou Shan quickly got into the car and woke up Li Xiong and the others who had just fallen asleep.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Wang Xiaobao rubbed his eyes and asked mutteringly.
Qin Qing glanced at everyone and saw everyone's slightly uneasy faces. He said solemnly, "I sense there are zombies nearby... a lot of them...!"
Everyone's faces froze instantly. Li Xiong and Wang Xiaobao turned to look at the convoy on the opposite side.
"Let's go immediately. If we don't leave now, we'll be surrounded!" Qin Qing was now certain that there were a large number of zombies nearby because the stench was getting stronger and stronger.
"But..." Li Xiong hesitated. There were so many people in the team over there. If they were really surrounded by zombies, many people would probably die, right?
Qin Qing gritted her teeth. What did the lives of others have to do with her? But in the moment of hesitation, a baby's cry suddenly pierced the sky from the other side of the team.
Hearing this sound, those who were about to get on the bus stopped immediately.
What crime has this child committed... ?
"Damn it..." Qin Qing cursed with a gloomy face, then turned and said to everyone, "You guys drive ahead. I guess we can't get back to the warehouse. Go to the base that Lu mentioned and wait for me."
Zhou Shan refused and said, "Let us go with you!"
Qin Qing shook his head and said to them, "Hurry up and leave. Don't be a burden to me." Without waiting for anyone to say anything else, he turned around and ran towards the opposite team.
Li Xiong wanted to get off the car, but was pulled back by Cheng Chuan.
"Let's go and not cause her any more trouble...!"
Zhou Shan said nothing, got into the driver's seat and started the car. If you look closely, you can see a hint of moisture in the corner of his eyes. At this moment, no matter how much Shen Kexin hated Qin Qing, she couldn't help but admire him.
Not everyone has the courage to stay and face the danger even though they know there are zombies.
The sound of the van starting up stirred the zombies that had been surrounding it quietly. Cheng Chuan hugged his daughter tightly, staring at the zombies rushing towards the van without blinking, and said to Zhou Shan, "Crash them..."
The team was not to be trifled with. When they saw Qin Qing running towards them, they immediately pointed their guns at him.
"Tell your manager that zombies are coming, take everyone away quickly."
Qin Qing looked at the soldier in front of her, his face full of doubt, and suddenly felt completely screwed. She sniffed the stench, her eyes wide open, and yelled, "There are zombies! Are you deaf?"
After shouting, she didn't care whether the soldier went to report or not, and turned and ran towards the other trucks. As she ran, she banged hard on the iron frame outside the truck. Amidst the "bang bang" sound, she felt that she was really sick. She should just take care of herself and not care about other people's lives.
Before the soldier could react, everyone sleeping in the truck was awakened by Qin Qing's knocking and the zombies' lion roars.
When they heard about zombies, the scene suddenly became chaotic.
"Bang..." A gunshot brought the originally chaotic scene to a halt.
Lu Yisheng raised his hand, firing his rifle into the air, and looked at the chaotic crowd with a dark face, as well as the woman who had caused this chaotic situation. She quickly shook off the people following her and ran away.
