Chapter 26: Lu Ming Shows His Power
However, just as he raised his foot, he was hit in the knee by a stone flying from behind. He screamed in pain and fell to the side. When he turned around and was about to curse, he saw a tall man holding a gun and walking towards him with a cold face.
He shuddered and instantly became timid. He could only curse in his heart and climbed into the car while holding his aching leg.
Gu Chao came over and helped Lu Ming get everyone into the car, and then the two of them jumped in.
After the four soldiers got in the car, the driver stepped on the accelerator and drove out of the community with the momentum of an F1 formula, and the armored car behind followed suit and rushed forward.
Fortunately, the zombies nowadays are still very fragile and were ruthlessly crushed like watermelons.
Lu Shaoyang came out and threw two grenades to both sides. After two loud bangs, many zombies were diverted away.
After driving a long way, there were fewer zombies following them, and everyone finally felt relieved.
Lu Ming looked at the situation on the transport truck and couldn't help frowning.
The supplies already took up half of the car, and now more than a dozen people got on, all carrying large and small bags, and they were already squeezed into a ball.
Those with good manners know to hold or carry their luggage on their backs, while those without good manners just spread their luggage everywhere.
Lu Ming and Gu Chao stood aside and saw several soldiers sweating profusely as they pulled the railings and hung outside the car. She glared angrily at the man with a mustache who was slumped over, as well as a mother and son who were using a large suitcase as a backrest for their child.
A bunch of clueless people!
Qin Mu, holding his wife, sat aside. Seeing this scene, he felt a burning sensation on his face. Although the girl was incredibly strong and lifted him up in one go... she wasn't wearing a military uniform and looked like a student, yet she risked her life with these soldiers to save them. It was really not easy.
Thinking of this, he thanked them: "Thank you for coming to save us."
Lu Ming looked in the direction of the sound and saw Qin Mu. He recognized that the gentle woman next to him was the one who had just been dragged to the ground. She was nodding to them with gratitude, and he felt a little better.
At least there are still some people who understand. Not everyone is so selfish and stupid.
She smiled slightly and said, "It's okay. Are you a teacher at the school?"
Qin Mu nodded. "Yes, my name is Qin Mu, and I'm from the School of Biology. This is my wife, Wen Minjun."
Wen Minjun smiled softly.
The mother of the pair curled her lips and muttered, "You're trying to curry favor with them already? What's there to thank them for? They're soldiers, and they have an obligation to save ordinary people like us. Otherwise, our tax dollars would be wasted. They came so late, they must have gone to save those leaders first. It's good that you didn't blame them."
Although the sound was small, it was still heard by several people.
Lu Ming glanced at her, too lazy to say anything, and closed his eyes quietly to rest.
When they were almost at the school gate, both cars stopped and Lu Shaoyang came over to ask the survivors to get out and follow the armored vehicle.
They immediately started shouting at the same time.
"Why do you want to get off the bus? You don't want to abandon us!"
"Where are we going? We have so many things."
Lu Shaoyang frowned and explained that the transport vehicle still had to collect supplies and could not take them, so someone would take them to the entrance of the university town to meet up with others.
As soon as these words were spoken, I didn't expect their reaction to be even more intense.
"Just drop us off and then go pick us up. It's just a short distance away."
"Oh, how are we going to get there with all these things?"
"I won't leave. How can you soldiers do that? What if we encounter those things on the way?"
Lu Shaoyang patiently explained repeatedly that it was too fuel-consuming for the transport truck to travel back and forth, and they didn't have that much fuel now.
Qin Mu wanted to get off the car, but the car was full of people and they couldn't get through since they were sitting in the middle.
Lu Shaoyang finally couldn't stand it anymore and ordered several soldiers to take them down.
It was easy to deal with a few men, but when it came to the women or the elderly, they started to scream and shout.
"Oh, that's indecent assault! You soldiers are being hooligans!"
"What are you doing? What are you doing? You are bullying me!"
"Let me go, I won't go down! Mom, I can't walk anymore!" The boy desperately kicked and hit Zhou Ping who was holding his collar. His mother also rushed over and hit him, cursing as she did so.
Lu Ming looked at the frustrated soldiers, then at Gu Chao with a cold expression, and felt that he could not rely on any of them.
She yelled, "That's enough! Shut up!"
She pulled Zhou Ping away and glanced around. "I'm not a soldier, so I won't be polite with you. I'll count to three, and you get out of the car. Otherwise, I'll throw you out. If you don't believe me, try it."
There was silence for a moment, but the next second there was shouting again.
Lu Ming ignored her and just counted "three, two, one!" No one moved. They didn't believe she dared to do anything.
Lu Ming didn't waste any time and simply picked up the suitcase the little boy was leaning against and threw it down.
The boy's mother rushed over angrily. Lu Ming dodged her hand and grabbed the boy's collar with one hand, dragging him to the side of the car and hanging him outside the car, refusing to let go no matter how the boy struggled.
She turned around and asked the woman coldly, "Are you going down?"
If the little boy fell from this height, his legs would definitely be broken. The boy's mother panicked, looking at Lu Ming's cold eyes, and she had no doubt that she would definitely throw the child down if she didn't agree.
She was sweating profusely and nodded repeatedly, "Next, next, next, please let go."
Lu Ming glanced at the car door and said, "Let's go! I don't have much patience!"
She was still a little hesitant, dawdling in her place. Lu Ming made an impatient click of his tongue and immediately let go of her hand!
"Ah!" She screamed, but saw Lu Ming caught the boy who fell in mid-air again.
"For the last time." Lu Ming's voice became colder.
The woman's legs went limp with fear, and she crawled out of the car.
Lu Ming carried the crying boy in, walked to the car door, and threw him into his mother's arms.
Lu Ming turned around and looked around. Before he could say anything, those who had been reluctant to move stood up one after another.
Are you kidding? Even the most sarcastic Wang Hui has been dealt with. What else can they do?
Lu Ming threw all their luggage out of the car and then sat back in the car, ignoring the resentful looks and whispered curses from those people.
Lu Shaoyang touched his nose, chuckled, sent a soldier to lead the way, and asked the rest to get in the car.
Several people on the transport vehicle watched the group go away, then turned around and looked at Lu Ming with admiration.
Han Chong gave him a thumbs-up and praised him, "Student Lu is really impressive. I, Han, have disliked those people for a long time. They almost got Captain Lu killed."
The others nodded in agreement, "Yeah, it's already this late and you're still carrying so much stuff, are you fleeing or moving?"
Zhou Ping pretended to be angry and glared at them, "Okay, stop talking." But then he turned around and couldn't help laughing.
Lu Ming smiled, turned to look at Gu Chao, and found that he also had a smile in his eyes.
Lu Ming was satisfied. No one thought that what she did was too rude or too inhumane. This was good. Otherwise, if their values were not in harmony, they would not be able to walk the same path.
She currently has no specific plan on how to change the ending of this world, but no matter what she does, she is very disgusted with these ungrateful survivors.
No one is born to give, to sacrifice themselves for others. It's the end of the world, and even if these soldiers don't come to rescue them, it's understandable. Besides, judging by the looks of these people, even if they were rescued this time, I believe they would soon kill themselves.
But Luming forgot that she viewed the world from a God's perspective. She knew the world was beyond redemption, unable to regress, forced only to grow. Those who failed to grasp this reality would soon pay the price and vanish into the depths of history. Therefore, she felt, since the ultimate outcome was destruction, there was no point in even bothering to save them.
However, for those people, the chaos lasted only a dozen days. These people who had no ability to protect themselves still believed in the army, the country, and humanity. They believed that these were only temporary, that the zombies would be eliminated, and that civilization could be rebuilt. They believed that they still had a chance to survive.
Disappointment and even despair are still far away from them, so they don’t realize that they need to change.
However, reality will soon give them a hard slap in the face.
