Chapter 403
"Mom, are the zombies coming..."
"I have no strength..."
A voice as thin as a mosquito's hum came out, and the pale and skinny little girl Wenwen asked her mother. Her eyes, which should have been innocent and bright, were covered with a layer of gray.
Seeing the child like this, the girl's mother felt heartbroken. She wanted to hug the child, but she was too hungry to hold her up.
The child was just a few bones left, the once shiny hair was dry and yellow, and the once rosy little face was so thin that the bones protruded.
It was really heartbreaking for her as a mother.
But what could she do?
No one could do anything!
They followed General Wang and fled here from Sichuan. They ate poorly, just enough to fill their stomachs. Sometimes they only had some soup a day. During this period, they could only drink some soup every other day, and there were only a few grains of rice in it . They
were not starving to death, but they could not survive.
Many people could not stand it and committed suicide.
She had stomachaches every day because of hunger. She was chased by despair every day and wanted to die all the time,
but she did not dare to commit suicide because she had children.
Originally, everyone hoped that after the flood receded, they could grow some food here and rest and recuperate. But before the flood receded, zombies appeared.
Everyone was desperate. What way was there to survive?
She looked around and saw people who were tired and hopeless. They didn't move when they heard the zombies were coming. They didn't want to run away anymore...
What was there to run away for?
It would be better to die than to live like this!
"Mom, the zombies are coming, but I can't walk..."
Wenwen said weakly. She was still young and didn't know what such suffering meant. This period of time was too hard, but because she was young, she didn't know the specific meaning of pain.
She only felt that she only had her mother. Her grandparents, father and sister were all dead. She only had her mother.
She didn't want to die, she wanted to live, but she couldn't escape, she couldn't escape...
"Baby, if you can't walk, let's not leave, stay here... You take a nap, take a nap..."
Mother's tears fell one by one, but not many, and they disappeared quickly.
Because here, you can't afford to cry.
Some people around were lying on the ground lazily, not moving. They had the same idea as Wenwen's mother, they didn't want to escape, they couldn't escape.
But there were still some people who struggled to stand up and followed the army forward, as far as they could go...
Maybe a miracle would happen!
"General, they--"
Some people saw the motionless people and felt sad, so they turned their backs, but too many of them had died before, and no matter how sad they were, they were used to it.
They knew very well that less than one percent of the people could survive this corpse tide. No, perhaps even less. It was even possible that the whole army would be wiped out!
General Wang Sihai was also very upset, but there was nothing he could do.
"Escape to the heart of the mountain and organize a defense line. We can defend it for a while. Organize people to go through... through the passage... If, if..."
"Let's go!"
General Wang Sihai walked deeper into the mountain.
After seeing the space rift, several other temporary gathering places made the same decision and organized their relocation.
Behind them, there were also a large number of people who could not escape...
Most of them were women, children, the elderly and the weak.
The atmosphere was extremely heavy. Occasionally there was a sob or two, which soon stopped. Some people wiped their tears with their sleeves, but most of them were numb with despair!
Wah!
The water waves rolled up, but suddenly retreated with a bang, and kept retreating, retreating very quickly, very quickly, and soon patches of muddy ground were exposed...
