Let's rewind to thirty minutes ago, to the time when Sister Jing parted ways with us.
...
Whoosh!
Fei Lichao knocked over a bowl on the counter, shattering it and attracting many zombies.
Lu Jing looked at the person opposite her and wanted to shout, but the person next to her covered her mouth and said, "Don't shout, the zombies are coming, let's run!"
She desperately wanted to go back and save people, but the man holding her and covering her mouth was very strong, and she couldn't break free for a while.
Gunshots came from that side, followed by shouts and sounds of fleeing. Lu Jing was very worried and scared that something might have happened to them.
However, on their side, a large number of zombies were chasing them from behind. The zombie running in the lead was moving very fast and roaring as it approached them.
Jing broke free from the man's arm, picked up the machete, and slashed at the zombie running behind her.
She held her knife horizontally, so that the zombies would run right into it.
puff!
With a single slash, the running zombie's head fell to the ground, but its body continued to run a few steps forward before losing its balance and collapsing to the ground, dead.
The man, holding a flashlight, saw what was happening. He had expected the woman to scream in terror, but he hadn't anticipated her skill; she had dealt with the running zombie in one fell swoop! These kinds of zombies were known to be extremely difficult to handle!
Lu Jing picked up the flashlight that had fallen to the ground and shone it across the other side. She found that there was no one there. She didn't dare to shout, for fear of attracting the zombies.
But even if she didn't shout, the zombies still caught up with her.
The many zombies that had poured in through the supermarket entrance have now all entered the supermarket and are scattered in the darkness. Moreover, because of the gunshots that rang out earlier, all the zombies at the entrance are running towards this side.
"Awooo—Awooo—"
A series of roars came from behind, making Lu Jing's scalp tingle. She had only one thought in mind: to leave this place and find the others.
She turned around, glanced at the nameless man in front of her, and said, "Let's go!"
The man snapped out of his daze, staring at Lu Jing's slender figure as she walked away. He heard the footsteps and howls of zombies behind him and decisively followed.
As Lu Jing ran forward, she kept an eye on the zombies around her. She had a pistol, a machete, and two spare magazines in her hands.
However, she didn't plan to use a gun because she knew that using a gun in this place was suicidal. As long as she made a sound, the surrounding zombies would discover her, and then the zombies would chase her like madmen. No matter how she tried to escape, she wouldn't be able to get away.
"Xiaonan and the others must have escaped deeper into the area. I don't know which direction they went, but they should be nearby, not far away." Lu Jing thought to herself, her steps unwavering, her flashlight illuminating the surroundings as she prayed she could find her companions.
As for the man following behind her, she didn't bother with him for the time being. He had an assault rifle, a knife and a pistol on his waist, and his equipment was much better than hers, so she didn't need to worry about his safety at all.
"ah!"
Just then, Lu Jing heard a scream from the man behind her.
Lu Jing's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly turned around. She saw a female zombie biting the man's arm with a hideous expression. However, the man's clothes were thick, and the zombie didn't seem to have bitten through them! But it had already bitten him, and if it wasn't killed soon, it might really break through his skin!
Bang!
Lu Jing pulled out her pistol, ignoring the zombies around her, and fired a shot, saving the man.
The zombie was dead. The man sat down on the ground with a thud, looking flustered as he tried to check the wound on his arm.
"Aww—"
At this moment, the surrounding zombies seemed to have heard Lu Jing's gunshot, and their roars, which had subsided somewhat, resumed.
Lu Jing frowned and said, "Get up quickly, the zombies around are coming!"
The man wasn't stupid; he also heard the roars of the zombies around him. He picked up the assault rifle that had been slammed to the ground by a zombie and hurriedly followed Lu Jing away from there.
At this moment, he stared at Lu Jing's back and felt extremely ashamed. How could a grown man like himself make a fool of himself in front of a woman, and in the end, he was even saved by this woman!
This can't go on! The man made a silent decision.
Lu Jing had no idea what the man behind her was thinking. All she wanted to do was find Fei Lichao and the others, and then work together to figure out a way to leave this hellish place.
"Awooo!" The roars of zombies came from all directions, many, many of them.
Lu Jing tried her best not to think about those troubling things, cleared her mind, and focused intently on her surroundings. She carefully looked at everything illuminated by the flashlight and didn't miss any sound she could hear.
She knew very well that she could only rely on herself now. As for the man behind her, he had almost been bitten to death just now, so he was definitely unreliable!
Lu Jing continued walking forward. As she passed a row of shelves, she did not hear any zombie roars, but she could hear dragging footsteps coming from between the shelves.
She turned her head and saw that the flashlight beam had just shone between the shelves!
Suddenly, a zombie that hadn't made a sound rushed out from between the shelves and pounced on her.
Unsteady on her feet, and with the silent zombie appearing so suddenly, she stumbled and fell to the ground.
Lu Jing didn't panic. She first used her elbow to brace against the zombie's neck, preventing its mouth from getting close to her. Then she released her grip on the machete because it was too long to use against a zombie so close to her. Even if she did use it, she wouldn't be able to apply enough force. So she decisively let go.
