Chapter 89: Chasing and Blocking
But the refugees were so thirsty that they only saw water and could not hear what the leader said.
Ye Li held a water bottle and squeezed into the crowd, looking for an opportunity to get some water. She was so thirsty that her throat was burning, but unfortunately there were too many people and she couldn't get close to the faucet for the time being.
After all, it was a refugee group formed temporarily.
Some people did not obey orders. Despite repeated persuasion, they did not drive the water truck from the holy city away, but some people still got on the water truck, started it, and wanted to drive it away.
The leader shouted and tried to stop him, but the man drove the car and ran over the leader.
The leader was killed instantly, and blood splattered all over the ground.
"Ah..." The women and children screamed in fear, but they didn't care about anything else at this moment. There were still three water trucks that had not left, and they rushed over like crazy to get water.
Ye Li, who was "queuing in a civilized manner", was ruthlessly squeezed out. She stood aside helplessly with her water bottle. After thinking about it, she also tried to squeeze in. Unfortunately, she didn't have the qualifications and couldn't even squeeze in.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Another water truck is coming!"
"Everyone hurry up and grab it!"
A group of refugees rushed towards the oncoming water truck and hit the driver and guards in the driving seat of the water truck with shovels, axes and iron bars.
Bang bang...
The guards in the water truck also fired in defense, but the truck was narrow and they could not move their guns freely. They fired several shots but missed, and the sound of the guns made their ears buzz.
Based on their experience in previous attacks, the refugees seized the guns of the water truck driver and guards, forced them off the truck, and tied them up with ropes.
Perhaps the line of water trucks was too long, and the refugees did not notice that behind the five new water trucks there were three armored vehicles.
Seeing the refugees scrambling for water ahead, the people in the armored vehicle immediately got out. They were all fully armed elite soldiers.
"Stop it!" The soldiers raised their guns and walked quickly to rescue their companions.
It is unimaginable that when people face desperate situations, the potential they unleash is unimaginable.
The refugees took the looted guns and shot at the soldiers who rushed forward, creating a hostile situation.
Gunshots rang out and stray bullets flew everywhere.
The unarmed refugees were terrified and scattered screaming.
Ye Li did not dare to stop at all and quickly followed the refugees into the woods.
In short, when it comes to places where conflicts are intense, the farther you run, the better.
There were too many people and it was too chaotic, so Ye Li got separated from the girl and her mother. Looking around, there were only people everywhere, and he couldn't tell which one was which.
Suddenly, a group of five people came into Ye Li's sight. Instead of running away, they walked towards Ye Li against the crowd. All of them stared at Ye Li, wishing to get rid of her as soon as possible.
They simply wanted to take advantage of this chaotic situation to avenge themselves for disrupting their plans.
Ye Li turned and ran towards the woods on the left. Although there were no refugees running in that direction, she didn't care about that anymore. She absolutely couldn't let these five people catch her.
The woods were full of thorns, and the further you went in, the narrower the path became.
Ye Li's legs and feet had become weak from running, and she had no strength left. She could no longer see any refugees. Turning her head back, she could see the five men chasing after her, treating her like a rabbit to be slaughtered.
It’s over! Ye Li panicked. She was doomed.
Suddenly, Ye Li thought of Wang Dahu's ID card in her pocket. She wore it on purpose when she went out, just to make friends with the people in the Holy City.
Perhaps, she could turn back and ask for help from the people in the Holy City.
Ye Li reached into her pocket and touched her ID card. She took a deep breath, turned around and ran towards the road.
The five people were caught off guard and quickly changed direction to block the road.
Because there was no Ye Li leading the way, they had to work hard to push aside the thorns and make a path, so their speed slowed down a lot.
Whoosh…
Ye Li ran desperately, ran desperately, and finally, she saw the road and the Holy City's convoy.
She dropped the water bottle in her hand and, with her last bit of strength, ran towards the last armored vehicle at the back of the convoy.
Unexpectedly, at this time, one of the people chasing her also rushed out of the woods and chased her onto the road.
When he saw Ye Li rushing towards him, he quickly opened his hands, trying to grab Ye Li.
