Half an hour later, we drove past ten cars, but only one of them had some gasoline. It wasn't much, but we couldn't waste it, so we collected it and put it in a bucket.
We continue onward.
Actually, we are already in the northern part of Sanyang City. The number of zombies around us has started to increase, and there are also more vehicles.
We didn't go into the city. Considering the sheer number of zombies in the city, even with Lu Yun there, going in would just be asking for trouble. It was better to just wander around the outskirts; that would be enough.
For the next ten minutes or so, Lu Yun and I worked together.
She lured away the zombies around us, and I went to find gasoline. In just over ten minutes, we filled all the plastic buckets we had brought. This gasoline would last us a long time.
In addition, we found a lot of spare gasoline in the trunks of other cars, and took it all. These things are resources and should not be wasted.
Seeing that the back of the truck was almost full, it was time for us to head back.
I glanced at Lu Yun, who was boredly playing a game with a zombie, and called out to her. She then killed the zombie and rushed back.
"You're going back so early?" Lu Yun asked.
"This much gasoline is enough. We don't have anything else to carry. Let's go back."
Lu Yun nodded and said as she got into the car, "But what if we run into my sister and Fei Lichao doing something like that when we go back so early?"
I rolled my eyes, not wanting to say anything, and decisively climbed into the driver's seat.
But Lu Yun opened the car door but didn't get in for a long time. I said, "Get in, let's go."
Lu Yun didn't answer me and remained standing outside the car, I don't know what she was doing.
Puzzled, I got out of the car and said, "Get in, let's go."
"Shh!" Lu Yun put her finger to her lips to silence me, then said, "Listen carefully, can you hear any cries for help?"
I frowned slightly. Was that a cry for help?
I listened carefully, but I didn't hear any cries for help around me. I could only hear the sound of the wind and the howls of many zombies.
Just as I was about to give up, a faint cry for help came from the other side.
"Help!"
The sound wasn't loud, and it seemed to be quite far away from us.
"It's right ahead!" Lu Yun pointed ahead and said, without saying another word, she started running towards it.
"Hey!" I couldn't stop her, so I got in the car and drove over. The cries for help were far away, and we could only hear them faintly. By the time Lu Yun got there, the matter was basically over.
I drove up to Lu Yun and said, "Get in the car."
Lu Yun was stunned for a moment, then slapped her forehead, decisively got into the car, and then I knocked over the two zombies in front of me and drove past.
"Help!"
Just then, another cry for help came. This time we heard it clearly; it was at the intersection not far ahead.
A few seconds later, as I got closer, I saw a group of people surrounding three people at a corner of the intersection. Yes, a group of people, not zombies!
As for the three people who were surrounded, I took a closer look and found them somewhat familiar.
Lu Yun exclaimed in surprise, "Lu Xiaonan, look! Look! Aren't those three the family of three we met before?"
When she said that, I realized it was them. No wonder they looked so familiar. As for the people surrounding the family of three, I didn't know who they were, but they were all men, shouting and holding knives. I didn't know what they were saying.
The family of three seemed to see us, seemed to see hope, and decisively shouted, "Help us!"
The men surrounding them also noticed our presence.
Lu Yun wanted to get out, but I stopped her and said, "Stay in the car and don't get out. Hold the gun and cover me here. If they make any moves, just shoot."
"You're going to go down and deal with them all by yourself!" Lu Yun exclaimed in surprise.
I chuckled. "Have some faith in me, okay?"
After I finished speaking, I opened the car door and got out. As soon as the men with knives saw me get out, they all pointed their knives at me and shouted:
"Kid, I advise you to turn around and leave right now, or don't blame us for killing you, you know that!"
I looked at them and counted that there were seven people in total. Four of them came up to me and threatened me to leave, while the remaining three, who looked a bit younger, were still threatening the family of three.
I glanced at the family of three and saw that they were all alright, so I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After all, they had helped me once before, and if it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to find Sister Jing and Fei Lichao.
Therefore, it's still necessary to return the favor this time.
I faced the four men and said, "This family of three are my friends. If you don't mind, how about we let them go for my sake?"
"For your sake, kid, who do you think you are? I'm only giving you face. If you know what's good for you, get the hell out of here!" the middle-aged man in the lead shouted.
At this moment, the man next to the middle-aged man said to him, "Boss, look at his car, there's a woman there too, and she's very pretty!"
The middle-aged man looked at the passenger seat, and his eyes lit up immediately.
Seeing their eyes made me feel disgusted.
Not wanting to waste any more time, he said, "I'll give you a chance. Release my friend now and leave immediately, and I can spare your lives. If you're looking for death, I don't mind killing you all."
The middle-aged man looked at me with disdain, then stared at Lu Yun in the car and said, "You little punk, do you know you're asking for death? You dare to threaten me? Come on, let's kill this little punk, and the woman in the car will be ours!"
I frowned as I watched them approach. I slowly pulled out a pistol from behind my back and fired a shot at the middle-aged man's head.
Bang!
The moment the gunshot rang out, a bloody hole appeared in the middle-aged leader's head, and he died instantly.
The others were terrified when they saw this.
I didn't continue firing, mainly because I didn't want to waste bullets on them.
We only took a limited amount of weaponry with us when we left, so we should conserve it.
The remaining six men froze in place when they saw the smoking pistol in my hand.
I looked at them and shouted angrily, "Get out!"
These people were too scared to move, so I said again, "If you don't get out of here, I'll kill you all!"
As soon as he finished speaking, these people promptly fled.
The remaining family of three relaxed upon seeing this scene.
Watching the group of people run away, I approached the family of three and asked, "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing, it's nothing." The man looked at me. "Thank you."
I laughed and said, "It's nothing. You helped me last time, so it's only right that I help you this time."
