Chapter 288 Wailing
The car suddenly fell into silence for a long time.
All that could be heard was the sound of the zombies' sturdy leather soles rubbing against the ground as they moved, and the occasional sharp and shrill roar or two.
Jing Yimai turned his head and looked at a short but very fat male zombie not far away.
Under him, he was dragging a large piece of debris and was walking with difficulty.
You can vaguely see the burnt yellow fat wrapped around the edge of the intestines...
The base where he had stayed for a day and almost gave himself up suddenly emerged in his mind.
At the outermost edge, everything was in tatters, patched together with various things to barely form a defensive wall.
Behind this wall that would collapse if pushed by an adult with all their strength, there were actually more than 20 people lying there. When they saw him, they showed expressions like hungry wolves, propped up their upper bodies, and crawled towards him little by little like hungry ghosts pouncing on their food.
Jing Yimai raised his foot to avoid the mouth that was about to bite him.
He said coldly, "Get out of here."
The other party seemed to not understand what people were saying, like a long worm wriggling on the ground, with only his strong calves in his eyes.
Jing Yimai showed no mercy and immediately used his supernatural power to surround himself with a medium-voltage electric current as a warning.
Seeing the other party retreat decisively, he stepped forward.
Not far away, there is a cement wall more than ten meters high. At the only entrance, two guards holding chipped kitchen knives sit on benches and watch silently.
When he got closer, two kitchen knives were placed in front of him.
"Entrance fee."
The voice was extremely hoarse and weak, but much louder than those of the dying survivors outside.
Jing Yimai reached into his pocket, ignoring the two people's bursts of strange light, and stared at his trouser pocket.
"How much?"
He would not have entered the base if it weren't for the purpose of trading crystal cores.
"What do you have, and how much do you have?"
Jing Yimai took out something and slowly opened his fist.
Under the other person's eager eyes, two little finger-long pieces of plastic-wrapped beef jerky lay safely in the palm of his hand.
“Beef jerky!!”
The two men raised their voices and shouted, and immediately started to grab it.
Jing Yimai clenched his fist suddenly, and the dried meat disappeared in his palm.
"Is this enough?"
Want to get it for free?
Even if it’s expired jerky, it’s still edible!
Having traveled to so many places, he knew very well how precious food was.
“Yes, yes, yes.”
After getting the correct answer, he let go and pushed the two of them aside to enter the city smoothly.
At this moment, the voices of two people shouting angrily were heard behind him.
"Go back! Don't get in the way here!"
Jing Yimai didn't even turn his head. He picked up a person nearby, stuffed a small piece of beef jerky into his hand where no one else could see, and asked him where the transaction was.
The other party was very shocked. He opened the bag and stuffed the piece of meat into his mouth. He chewed it for a bite or two and swallowed it. His tongue kept licking the remaining juice in the bag, and he looked at him eagerly, wanting more.
Jing Yimai frowned.
At this moment, he felt someone pulling at his trouser leg. He lowered his eyes and looked down. There was a little kid lying on the ground, struggling to raise his head.
It was an extremely weak voice.
"...Big Brother, I know where it is. Just give me...something to eat..."
"No, he just came looking for me! Get out of here, you dead man!" The man from before refused to do it and yelled at the top of his lungs, not as weak as he looked.
As soon as the voice fell, the people around who were already starving stood up one after another.
"Handsome guy, give me something to stutter."
"I have an old mother at home, she's barely alive. Please, fulfill her wish to die with food in her mouth."
"As long as you give me a bite to eat, I'll do anything!"
A group of people came rushing in, instantly drowning out the skinny kid.
Jing Yimai threw the person in his hand back into the crowd, pulled the kid out from under their feet, and then pushed the crowd away with force, with tiny crackling electric currents flashing all over his body.
"Show the way."
He let go of his hand and the kid fell to the ground.
"...I'm hungry and have no strength."
Jing Yimai can kill zombies and attack adult men and women, but he is helpless against this group of children.
never mind.
Anyway, he has a lot of expired beef jerky.
Consider it an advance payment.
The little kid stared at him as he took out the dried meat from his pocket again, clapping his hands excitedly.
"Eat quickly."
Jing Yimai looked around and didn't notice the kid putting the meat strips into his pocket.
I heard that there is a level 5 crystal core in the exchange here, which is exactly the type he needs.
Hope everything goes well.
The kid stood up and led the way.
Finally, she stopped in front of a neater door and glanced back at him before raising her hand.
Jing Yimai suddenly felt his heart hit, and a chill instantly surged through him.
Something is wrong!
He prepared to retreat.
The kid immediately slammed the door!
"Mom! Come out! The food is here!!"
Suddenly, there was a sound of extremely heavy running footsteps from inside the door.
Boom, boom, boom!
Rampage inside like a wild elephant!
Suddenly, a gust of wind whistled towards the back of his head, but Jing Yimai turned around and jumped to easily avoid it.
The object that tried to attack him turned out to be a water arrow.
He turned around in surprise and found that the narrow aisle behind him was crowded with survivors!
When I looked down, I realized that everyone was walking barefoot in the sand and mud.
No wonder there is no sound!
They looked him up and down without any hesitation, and even whispered without hesitation, asking whether he wanted the legs or the internal organs this time!
Pairs of red eyes stared at him viciously, as if they wished they could eat him alive.
"Bang!"
The door behind him was pushed open with a bang, and it was completely scrapped as it collapsed.
I saw an extremely fat woman standing behind me. She had a big round face and her eyes were so small that they were almost invisible.
What’s even more striking is that her thick lips are covered in bright lipstick.
She opened her lips slightly, and a voice as loud as a death knell burst out.
"Where's the food?"
...
Jing Yimai turned his eyes away from the zombie and forced himself not to think about it anymore.
If I continue thinking about it, that smelly yellow liquid will come to me again.
"boom--"
Boss Xia started the car, and the engine humming in the darkness was like a louder rally cry.
The zombies wandering nearby turned around and responded to the call.
Xia Yan turned on the high beam and turned the car around gracefully.
Oh, no.
The fan-shaped lamppost instantly illuminated a fat zombie and the thick yellow fat that was messily rolled up in his stomach.
Jing Yimai covered his eyes and wailed.
It’s over. I won’t be able to eat meat for a long time.
"Why? Can't bear to part with the crystal core?"
The front of the car suddenly knocked the zombies away, clearing out a barely empty road.
Xia Yan showed a puzzled expression.
Jing Yimai looked up with a bitter face, and the zombie that was just lifted up fell on the glass in front of him with a bang, and the broken chest was wriggling in front of his eyes.
Suddenly, his face turned as pale as it could be, and he squeezed out a word from between his teeth.
"—Go! I'm going to throw up!"
