Chapter 39 Pay to Open the Door
In the end, Su Su followed them into the car.
Of course it’s not tied up.
Because the person who was tied up turned out to be Xiao Huai.
Su Su sat up straight in the back seat, secretly glanced at Xiao Huai who was sitting motionless with his knees hugged in the trunk, and a smile appeared on her face.
Fortunately, the trunk of this car is quite spacious and can barely accommodate his tall body.
Chen Qianxing, who was also sitting in the back seat, followed Su Shu's gaze and couldn't help complaining, "If he encounters danger on the road, I won't care whether he lives or dies."
Su Shu's eyes curved: "It's okay, I won't blame you."
Chen Qianxing: “…”
At this point, all the words in his heart finally converged into one sentence -
He Fan, you died so tragically!
As the car drove out of the community, Su Su couldn't help but look back at the road that he was very familiar with.
Broken limbs and arms were everywhere on both sides of the road, and the ground was almost stained dark red with blood.
This road now looks completely unfamiliar.
After Su Su retracted her gaze, she thanked Yan Chu, who was sitting in the passenger seat: "Yan Chu, thank you. If you hadn't spoken up for me... I don't know what to do."
Yan Chu smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll need your help many times in the future."
Su Shu thought Yan Chu was just being polite. When she came down from the apartment building just now, Su Shu saw clearly that Yan Chu was not being carefully protected by others like she was.
She rushed to the front fearlessly, fighting against the terrifying zombie horde with only a baseball bat.
Su Su said embarrassedly: "You are so capable, there is no way I can help you."
Yan Chu smiled but said nothing, thinking that yes, it would happen.
When you awaken your special powers, you will be my most useful tool.

After Chen Qianxing charged his mobile phone with the car charger, he opened the offline map he had downloaded previously.
He placed his phone between the two seats in front of him and swiped the screen with two fingers to zoom in on the densely packed map.
"As we agreed before, after rescuing Su Shu, we will go to Yue City to check the situation."
There are two reasons for choosing Yue City as the destination. One is that Luo Yiyi's father, Luo Yu's husband, was on a business trip in Yue City before the zombie outbreak, and the mother and daughter wanted to try to find their family.
Another reason is that Yue City is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it may not fall so quickly.
Yan Chu came over and took a look at the location of Yue City, which was about three hundred kilometers away from them.
Except for Yue City, the other city names shown on the map were names she had never heard of.
It is indeed a fictional novel.
When the vehicle followed the navigation to the toll station near the highway entrance, they found that they could not go on the highway at all. The road was already blocked by a queue of cars that was more than ten kilometers long.
Most of the cars were empty.
It is estimated that those who originally wanted to escape from the highway were stuck here and could not move forward or backward, and finally had to abandon their cars and flee.
The group had no choice but to take the provincial road.
The traffic jam on the provincial road is not as serious as on the highway, but the number of zombies wandering on the road is obviously more than on the highway.
In addition, there was a serious car accident almost every few kilometers on the road, and all kinds of car wreckage were scattered in the middle of the road.
After the two cars stumbled and drove for more than fifty kilometers, the number of cars and zombies on the road finally became visibly fewer, and the road gradually became unblocked.
Looking at the green fields on both sides of the road, Yan Chu just breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back in his chair when the car suddenly braked to a stop.
She immediately sat up alertly: "What's wrong?"
Gu Qinyuan gestured forward with his eyes: "I can't go through."
Yan Chu frowned and looked, and saw a huge black shadow on the road not far ahead.
What is that?
She squinted her eyes and took a closer look, and was surprised to find that the black area was actually a sunken hole, and the road ahead had collapsed!
The collapsed cavity cut off their way, and not only that, the cracks in the ground at the edge of the cavity were slowly spreading outward.
A car parked on the side of the road was hanging precariously on the edge of a depression. After swaying left and right twice, the concrete under its wheels suddenly cracked, and then with a loud bang, the car and the ground fell down together.
Gu Qinyuan's eyes darkened and he immediately turned around and drove back.
The other car didn't know what was going on. When they saw Gu Qinyuan and his car suddenly turn around, Lu Yuanze pressed the window and asked, "What's going on?"
Yan Chu responded through the car window: "The road ahead has collapsed, hurry up!"
They couldn't drive on the highway and the provincial road had collapsed, so now they could only go around it through the small roads in the village.
The road in the village is very narrow, barely wide enough for two cars to pass by each other. Fortunately, there are not many cars on the road, and there are not many zombies.
Compared to the city that has almost become a zombie lair, the sparsely populated village is obviously much safer.
When he drove to the village entrance, Yan Chu saw from afar that the iron fence gate at the entrance was actually closed.
Is this road also blocked?
No way, this is too unlucky.
When the car approached the closed gate, Yan Chu discovered that there was a white banner hanging above the iron fence.
The banner looked like it was made of torn sheets, with a few conspicuous words written in red paint on it - "Pay to open the door".
Yan Chu: “…”
What is this?
Perhaps because of the sound of their vehicles, the second-floor window of a small building at the entrance of the village was opened a crack, and a loudspeaker extended from the window hole.
"Listen up, newcomers! If you want to get in, pay first. We'll open the door once you pay. Ten thousand dollars a car!"
When the people in the car heard this, they all showed speechless expressions.
The zombie outbreak has occurred, but instead of escaping to a safe place as soon as possible, these people are taking advantage of the situation to rob others?
Yan Chu looked around and saw that the doors and windows of every household were closed. Most of the farmers here had their own vegetable gardens and wells, so food sources did not seem to be a problem.
As long as they are not surrounded by a large number of zombies, they naturally don’t worry about life or death, but rather want to take the opportunity to make money.
Ten thousand yuan is not a huge sum of money for her, but when the entire network crashes, who would run away with ten thousand yuan in cash?
What's more, it won't be long before cash becomes just a piece of waste paper.
The shrill horn voice seemed to have guessed her thoughts and continued, "If you don't have cash, valuables will do, gold, jewelry, or anything else."
Su Su couldn't stand it any longer and couldn't help but open the window to retort: "We can always take a detour. Is this the only way we can take?"
The horn voice sounded even more proud: "Just go around. If other roads weren't blocked, why would you come here?"
Su Su was stunned, and turned to Chen Qianxing in disbelief, "Is what he said true?"
Chen Qianxing studied the map on his phone for a long time, then finally hung his head in frustration. "There's a river ahead of us. The only way out from here is to cross the bridge. Otherwise, we'll have to go back hundreds of kilometers."
