Chapter 120 Weird Town
"Stop! Who are you? Why are you in our forbidden area?!"
As expected, with a low shout, a dozen townspeople holding various weapons appeared from behind the trees on both sides of the front, all looking at them vigilantly.
Gu Chao stopped and replied, "We are passers-by who accidentally entered this place. We did not mean to intrude into your restricted area. We are very sorry."
Perhaps because they saw that they were covered in dust and looked very miserable, had no weapons, and were accompanied by women and children, the townspeople exchanged glances and the tall and strong dark-skinned man in the lead frowned and put down his weapon.
He said, "We don't welcome outsiders, please leave."
The person next to him tugged at his clothes, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
He glared at the man, shook his head, then turned back to look at them seriously.
Gu Chao smiled slightly when he heard this, "Thank you very much, how do I get out of town?"
The man glanced at the crowd, paused for a moment on the two women and the child, and then said, "Follow me."
The others made way for them and followed them into the town.
The terrain of this town is from high to low, and the whole town is built in a slope. It is easy to see the situation below from above. There are several mountains behind it. It is a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is difficult for zombies to run in. No wonder the people in this town are still alive and well.
The group followed the townsman through the small buildings with white walls and black tiles. The townspeople along the way were either standing or squatting, looking at them warily. Some people were standing on the second or third floor of the small buildings, secretly looking out from behind the windows.
Gu Chao and Lu Ming observed these people and found that although the clothes they wore and the exposed skin were very dirty, everyone's mental state was still acceptable, their eyes were sharp and bright, and although they were thin, they were not weak. There might be some people with special abilities.
It seems that they are living a decent life except for some water shortage.
However, perhaps because they had accidentally entered a forbidden area, the townspeople looked at them in a strange way. A hundred or so people were staring at them, which made people feel a little creepy.
No one spoke and the whole town was silent.
Xiaoyue was a little nervous and couldn't help but take a few steps forward and hold Luming's hand.
Lu Ming lowered his head and patted her head gently, then led her forward.
The town was not big, and after walking for more than ten minutes, they arrived at the town entrance.
The town originally did not have a gate. This gate made of large stones should have been newly built after the end of the world. It looks very high and heavy, with only a small door on the side. One has to move the stone that serves as the door before getting out. It can be said that the defense is very tight.
They filed out one after another. Gu Chao stayed until the end and said thank you to the man. As expected, he got no response, so he turned and left.
To be on the safe side, they did not take out the car but continued to move forward.
However, when they were about to leave the country road, two dilapidated vans drove up in front of them.
Two cars stopped in front of them. The passenger window of the front car rolled down, and a young man anxiously shouted at them, "Don't go over there! There's a zombie horde behind us!"
Everyone was a little surprised. Why was there a zombie tide here too?
Gu Chao looked at Xie Ran, who nodded imperceptibly.
If there really is a zombie tide, it will be very dangerous to stand here. It is better to retreat to the town entrance first.
While he was thinking, the young man asked again: "Where are you from? Why are you outside our town?"
Are the people in these two cars also from this town?
"We also encountered a wave of zombies on the other side. They came over from the mountains behind your town. We were just passing through."
When the young man heard Gu Chao say this, his expression changed. "You actually came to our forbidden area?"
No wonder they were kicked out...
He observed the group of people obscurely and asked, "You didn't touch anything in the forbidden area, did you?"
"Does running into a trap count?" Lu Ming asked.
When the young man heard the sound, he saw Lu Ming on the other side of Gu Chao. He was surprised and was stunned.
Gu Chao frowned slightly and turned his body to block Lu Ming.
The young man came to his senses and said with a smile, "Oh, that's okay. The road is full of zombies now. It's dangerous for you to stay here. Why don't you hide in our town first and wait until the zombie tide passes before leaving."
"But the people in the town don't seem to want us to go in," said Lin Cong.
"It must have been a tall, strong man with a dark face who asked you to leave, right?"
"Yes, how did you know?"
"That's my brother. He is so cautious. He is always wary of outsiders. You can't blame him." The young man said with a sigh.
At this time, everyone could already hear the zombies' roars.
The young man frowned. "Hurry, let's go into town first. Get in the car!"
Gu Chao glanced at the young man, then turned to them and said, "Get in the car."
The two vans were relatively empty, and Gu Chao's group of fifteen people could easily fit in them. As soon as they got in the van, they drove towards the town.
When they arrived in front of the stone gate, a sentry on a high platform on the side saw them and asked, "Who is it?"
The young man didn't say anything either. He took out a leaf and blew two melodies.
The sentry heard this and shouted back, "Brother Zhang is back! Open the door quickly."
Then he ran down.
The stones near the original small door were moved away, opening it into a large door, and the van drove in.
After driving to an open space, the group got out of the car and saw the tall and strong man coming from afar.
He was originally very happy, but when he saw Gu Chao and the others, his face darkened again, "Why did you bring them in?"
The young man quickly said, "Brother, there's a zombie horde passing through right now. It's too dangerous for them to be outside. I asked, and they didn't touch anything in the forbidden area, so let them stay here for a while."
The tall and strong man gave him a warning look, but the young man was not afraid at all. He blinked and smiled ingratiatingly.
Finally he said, "Okay, let's let them go once the zombie tide passes."
The young man chuckled, looking even more honest and simple. He turned around and said, "Come on, I'll take you to rest for a while. I guess the zombie wave won't pass that quickly."
The crowd couldn't bear to refuse his kindness, so they followed him into the town.
This time, there were more than half of the people along the way, and it seemed that they were all doing their own things.
The weird atmosphere is much less.
However, Qin Ye, who was walking at the back, suddenly felt a chill. He turned around and saw the tall and strong man standing there staring at them.
The eyes are weird.
Qin Ye frowned.
Somehow, he felt that this town was a little strange.
