256 The Tenth Store
◎ Please sign for your package. ◎
After Lu Yao and Jiang Yifei contacted each other, the Dream System automatically added the collected addresses to the database, scanning and navigating in real time.
Before officially entering the target area, the two transport vehicles turned around in the city and went to Jiang Yifei's home first.
Jiang Yifei's parents live in the middle reaches of Zhongling City. It is not the most prosperous area, but it is not remote. Before the zombie virus broke out, the environment should be very good. Lu Yao's
team arrived at Yuehai Community. The zombies around were as dense as ant nests. There was no place to stay.
The trucks were large enough, with emblems of various buffs carved all over their bodies, like two savage wild bears, running rampant on the road.
There were no living people on the streets, and the trucks rolled over them all the way.
To be honest, it was not a good feeling.
The wheels of the trucks rolled over the corpses easily, as if stepping on a sea of blood and corpses. The sounds of bones being crushed were all clattering, and the sounds of flesh being crushed were gurgling.
The errand runners were very good at hearing and could play the images in their heads just by listening to the sounds, which was really a headache.
The two trucks stopped at the main entrance of Yuehai Community one after the other, and the shop assistants got off one by one. There were
many zombies under the car. The three ordinary shop assistants used the talismans given by Lu Yao. They each put a talisman to ward off evil spirits on their bodies. Worried that it would not work, they put on a diamond talisman.
The effect of the talisman is that within fifteen minutes after it is put on, the zombies will avoid the person who puts the talisman and will not attack actively.
The effect of the diamond talisman is like a single-person barrier. After it is put on, a light golden light shield similar to a protective shield will form around the body. Ordinary bullets and cold weapons cannot break through, and zombies cannot get close to them. It lasts for half an hour.
The three shop assistants stood side by side, with themselves as the center, and within a radius of one meter, no zombies came close.
Xia Huaisong couldn't help but say, "Our talismans are so effective, we can make a lot just by selling them, right?" Guanzhong
said, "The talismans in the store are special products, which need to be drawn by the store owner himself, otherwise it is difficult for ordinary people to activate them. The store owner is only one person, and he can't stay in the store day and night to draw talismans."
Because of the book "The Legend of the Hidden Immortal Cultivator", Xia Huaisong and his friends fully used their imagination and automatically supplemented the background of Lu Yao and the errand boy.
The identity of the store owner is probably similar to that of the leader of a sect, with strong ability and great responsibility, leading the disciples of the sect to come out of the mountains in the chaotic world to save the people in the world who are trapped in the water and fire.
Hearing Guanzhong say this, Xia Huaisong nodded in understanding.
In this way, it is more cost-effective to do the errand business.
Lu Yao interrupted the shop assistant's chat and said concisely: "Lu Mingxiao and I will take Yifei upstairs, and the rest are downstairs. You can also go back to the car and wait."
The Dream Yuanmeng System just reported to Lu Yao that there were no survivors in the Yuehai community.
Lu Yao didn't say anything, lowered his head and continued to talk to Jiang Yifei, asking her to prepare to enter the unit building.
They have already arrived at the Yuehai community, and Jiang Yifei will definitely not accept this statement.
Some things, even if you know the result, you must confirm it with your own eyes.
Jiang Yifei's home is on the 18th floor, and the elevator has long been out of service. The three of them climbed the stairs to go up.
There are dense zombies on the lower floors. There are probably not so many people in a residential community alone. There are probably many zombies wandering in from the streets.
After reaching the tenth floor, the number of zombies decreased drastically. Occasionally, there were one or two zombies at the entrance of the stairs, which were suspected to be residents of the building.
The three-person team went upstairs all the way and encountered two mutant zombies with abnormal speed and strength on the upper floors. Lu Yao and Lu Mingxiao quickly dealt with them.
The three continued to go upstairs, and Jiang Yifei gradually became silent.
They successfully reached the eighteenth floor and killed a zombie with a mutated body at the entrance of the stairs.
Jiang Yifei's face became completely gloomy, and the door of her house was not closed.
The door was half-open, and there was no sound behind the door.
As she guessed, the room was empty.
In fact, when she encountered the mutant zombies downstairs just now, Jiang Yifei understood something.
If her parents were at home, they would definitely not escape the clutches of the mutated zombies.
Fortunately, no one was at home and no corpses were seen.
Jiang Yifei walked around several rooms. She had not been home for a long time. It seemed that many things were missing from the house. It was impossible to guess from the scene what had happened to her parents and whether they were still alive.
She stood in front of the window for a while, raised her hands to rub her eyes, turned around and picked up the family photo frame placed in the middle of the treasure chest.
It was a photo taken with her parents in the photo studio downstairs when she was admitted to university.
Her parents sat side by side, and she stood behind them. The three of them had faint smiles on their faces.
Jiang Yifei took out a family photo that was very common and treasured it from the frame. She carefully put it into a cloth bag and turned to Lu Yao and Lu Mingxiao and said, "They are not here. Everyone is still waiting downstairs. Go down first."
If her parents were still there, they would not have left this family photo behind when they left. Jiang Yifei's heart sank completely, but she strangely remained rational.
The owner took a long detour just for her. Her colleagues were waiting for her downstairs. She couldn't lose control and go crazy here.
Lu Yao and the other two returned along the stairs they came from. They did not encounter any obstacles along the way. They returned to the first floor from the 18th floor smoothly and walked out of the Yuehai community along the cobblestone path.
The clerk who was supposed to stay in the car was not in the car. He appeared almost at the same time as Lu Yao and his two companions, but they came from the street opposite the Yuehai community, and were accompanied by four strangers - two men and two women, all around 30 years old, with a strange complexion, pale and thin, and gloomy eyes.
One girl had red and swollen eyes and looked like she had been crying.
Xie Zili and Guanzhong saw Lu Yao and his companions coming back, and trotted over to report.
They were waiting for Lu Yao's team in the car, and accidentally heard someone calling for help from the high-rise building across the street.
This is not Gaosheng City, and the errand system has not been established yet. Following the store's on-the-job training, the three errand runners didn't want to pay attention at first.
However, the four people were in a very urgent situation. They encountered zombies with abnormal speed on a high-rise building. They were forced into a dead end and almost jumped down from the building.
Xie Zili hesitated for a moment and decided to save them.
Mobao and Guanzhong thought about it for a few seconds and agreed to go together.
Xia Huaisong and Zhou Mingyang were simply afraid of being left in the car, so they had to go with them.
The five people reached a consensus and acted in a rush. No one thought of contacting the store owner. Fortunately, the person was successfully rescued.
At this time, the clerk's expression and tone of voice could not hide his guilt when he answered in front of the store manager.
The Dream System reported: "These four people are the last survivors within a radius of five kilometers."
Lu Yao did not scold them. He turned around and looked around, waved his hand and called the clerk: "Take them to the car and leave here first."
Zombies are gathering nearby, and a zombie tide is coming.
The four survivors were stuffed into the cargo compartment of the transport truck at the back, and Xia Huaisong, Jiang Yifei and Zhou Mingyang sat with them.
The transport truck ran sideways on the main road and drove away quickly.
In the carriage, the shop assistant and Zhang Aijun were sitting on each side, with their backs against the wall, and no one spoke.
Jiang Yifei was feeling down because of family matters, and she lowered her head and sat at the edge.
After a while, Xia Huaisong received a call from Lu Yao, asking about the whereabouts of these people and offering to give them a ride.
Zhang Aijun was the leader of a four-person team. They formed a team to look for people, but the mission failed and three people died.
If they hadn't happened to meet Xia Huaisong and his friends, they would have died in the residential area just now.
Xia Huaisong asked where they were going, and Zhang Aijun hesitated and gave an address. He could see that these people were not from Zhongling City.
Lu Yao didn't say much after hearing Xia Huaisong's report.
It can only be said that it is quite a coincidence that these four people are going to the same place as them.
It seems that they are the people who came from the survivors' area and happened to meet Lu Yao's team.
Some survivors in Zhongling City continue to gather in areas rich in urban production data. Unlike other cities, they did not organize to build shelters, but naturally formed a residential community with a relatively high degree of autonomy.
The surrounding residents called the newly emerged residential area the Four-Leaf Clover Community. They do not have a unified manager. Survivors flee to the community and can find an empty room to live in.
Residents independently find people to form teams and go out to search or organize rescue activities. Now there are about tens of thousands of people living in the Four-Leaf Clover Community.
This is also the area where the survivors are densely populated as scanned by the Dream Yuanmeng System.
Half an hour later, two large transport trucks drove into the Four-Leaf Clover Community one after the other and stopped at the roadside on the outskirts. Lu
Yao got off the car first. This area was indeed different from other areas in Zhongling City. The most intuitive feeling was that there were not so many zombies on the road.
The buildings on both sides of the road looked empty and dilapidated. Lu Yao felt that there were several prying eyes in the dark, probably from nearby residents.
Zhang Aijun's team jumped out of the car and saw that it was indeed the Four-Leaf Clover Community.
When they were sitting in the car, it was dark all around and they didn't know the situation outside, but they could also feel that it didn't take too much time to get here.
It's just that their team originally had seven people, and it took five days to get safely from the Four-Leaf Clover Community to the vicinity of the Yuehai Community, but they were brought back in half an hour.
The mission failed, and nearly half of his teammates were lost. Zhang Aijun was in a bad mood. He originally didn't want to make close friends with the people who rescued them, but now he didn't care about those messy thoughts, grabbed Xia Huaisong and asked: "Who are you? Are you from the military?"
Xia Huaisong's wrist was so painful from being pinched, but he resisted the urge to scream.
Lu Yao was looking at the area, turned around and saw Zhang Aijun, looked at him carefully, turned around and walked slowly over: "Zhang Aijun?"
Zhang Aijun was in a depressed mood all the way back, and didn't take the initiative to talk to anyone. He was sure that he didn't reveal his name, frowned slightly, and his eyes showed vigilance: "Who are you?"
Lu Yao thought this was too coincidental.
Just now in Yuehai Community, she was thinking about Jiang Yifei and didn't pay much attention to this team of four.
Lu Yao didn't answer immediately, but lowered his head and took out a photo from the cloth bag and handed it over.
This is a photo of two people, a man and a woman standing side by side under a grape vine.
Both of them are not too old, about teens.
If you look closely, the man in the photo looks like a younger version of Zhang Aijun.
Zhang Aijun took a quick glance at the photo and immediately took it away. When he looked up at Lu Yao, a little light flashed in his gloomy eyes, and his hoarse voice suddenly became lighter: "Have you seen my sister? Is she still alive?"
Lu Yao turned around and took out a black package from the cargo compartment, handed it to Zhang Aijun, and formally introduced himself: "My name is Lu Yao, from Gaosheng City. This package was sent from Gaosheng City, and the address is Room 503, Unit 3, Building 7, Xiangzhang Community, Zhongling City. Please sign for it, Mr. Zhang Aijun."
When Lu Yao left Gaosheng City, Zhang Shulan came to the store.
Zhang Shulan wanted to have a baby and take care of her daughter. Because of the errand shop, their life was relatively stable. Her parents and brother who were far away in Zhongling City were her only concern.
She learned from Tang Anqi that the owner was going to Zhongling City, so she went to the store to ask the owner to take a package to Zhongling City for her parents and brother.
She didn't know the situation of her parents and brothers, and she couldn't control her anxiety whenever she thought of them. She couldn't wait until the errand shop officially established a station in Zhongling City.
Zhang Shulan is a regular and loyal customer of the errand shop. Lu Yao knew that she was alone with a girl and just brought a package. He didn't refuse and accepted the order according to the normal process and price of sending packages at the station.
