At this critical moment, the door was pushed open, and Zhao Yong ran while firing his gun.
Zhao Yong was a good shot. Although Number 3 was very strong, Zhao Yong shot at his forehead and soon attracted Number 3's attention. He threw Wang Xuanxuan aside and ran towards Zhao Yong.
Zhao Yong turned and ran towards the door. As long as he could lure Number 3 out, his family would be safe.
Number 3 wasn't thinking straight; he instinctively followed Zhao Yong and ran out of the yard in a few steps.
"Close the door!" Zhao Yong shouted.
"Dad, it's dangerous, Dad!" Zhao Xixi cried as she called out.
Although she was young, she knew how dangerous Number 3 was, and that her father was in great danger all by himself.
Ye Yunjuan quickly went over and helped Wang Xuanxuan, who had fallen to the side, up. Wang Xuanxuan had been badly hit, but luckily there was a pile of firewood nearby; if she had hit the wall directly, she would have been killed.
Dou Dou ran over and whimpered beside Wang Xuanxuan. Dou Dou had also been injured while blocking number 3, and a trickle of blood oozed from the corner of her mouth.
"I'm fine, Auntie, please help Uncle," Wang Xuanxuan said urgently.
Ye Yunjuan was also extremely worried, but she had to keep things stable in this courtyard. Her sister and husband were risking their lives outside, and she had to help Zhao Yong while ensuring the safety of her family. She couldn't lose them.
Ye Yunyi stood up, took the iron chain and pistol, told Xiao Fang to take good care of the old and young in the yard, and then ran out.
Zhao Yong had already led number 3 to a sparsely populated area, and Wang Zixiang also ran towards Zhao Yong with his twin knives.
He was in charge of arranging all the personnel, and just as he finished settling them in, he heard the gunshots from Ah 7's house, so he rushed over for his life.
With Wang Zixiang's support, Zhao Yong stopped by a field ridge, gave Wang Zixiang a hand signal, and prepared to flank Number 3 from there.
Wang Zixiang launched the first attack, wielding his twin swords as he charged towards zombie number 3. With flashes of light, he slashed at the zombie's leg joints, attempting to immobilize it. Zombie number 3 neither dodged nor evaded; the twin swords struck him, leaving only minor cuts and no deeper wounds. Wang Zixiang was startled. The sharpness of the blades and the force of his strikes—if it were any other zombie, its legs would have been severed.
Before he could even be shocked, Zombie Number 3 roared angrily, turned, and pounced on Wang Zixiang with incredible speed. Wang Zixiang rolled to the ground, barely dodging the zombie's claws. Zhao Yong fired a shot into the back of the zombie's head, hitting the same spot where he had just been shot. The zombie cried out in pain and turned to pounce on Zhao Yong.
Zhao Yong quickly rolled backwards. At this moment, Wang Zixiang fired again, but his aim was a little worse, and the bullet pierced Zhao Yong's ear. Number 3 then lunged at Wang Zixiang.
The two worked together seamlessly, the zombie moving back and forth between them like a fool. While neither of them was injured, the zombie also suffered little damage. As time passed, the two grew increasingly exhausted, while the zombie seemed to possess inexhaustible energy.
Just as the two were starting to tire, Ye Yunjuan arrived, rushing forward with specially made iron chains. Seeing this, Wang Zixiang and Zhao Yong immediately understood her intention, and the two coordinated to distract zombie number 3. Ye Yunjuan seized the opportunity, swiftly throwing out the chains and binding zombie number 3's arms. The zombie struggled fiercely, but couldn't break free.
Taking advantage of the moment, Wang Zixiang plunged his twin knives into the zombie's shoulder, pinning it down. Zhao Yong then ran to the front and fired several shots into the zombie's head. Zombie #3 writhed wildly before finally collapsing slowly and motionless. The three breathed a sigh of relief, exchanged weary smiles, and were thankful they had successfully subdued this formidable enemy.
Zhao Yong and Wang Zixiang rushed to the village entrance, while Ye Yunjuan went back to A-7's courtyard to comfort and take care of her family.
But before Zhao Yong and Wang Zixiang arrived at the village entrance, Ye Yunyi was also engaged in a fierce battle.
The people outside the village entrance were all skilled fighters. Wang Weifeng, Liu Er, Xiao Deng, and Xiao Qin were all core members. However, the difference in numbers between the two sides was too great, and the zombies were fearless of pain and death. There was even a zombie king in command, and quite a few evolved zombies.
Already in a losing streak, the retreat intensified after the departure of their main fighting force, Zhao Yong, with many more brothers falling. Some of the brothers who were not so strong or skilled in combat clearly felt their strength failing them. Only Ye Yunyi, Xiao Deng, Xiao Qin, Wang Weifeng, Liu Er, and a few of his fierce subordinates were still able to barely fight in the front row.
But one of the evolved zombies had developed the ability to jump. It took a running start, leaped over Ye Yunyi's head, and landed next to Feng Dashan, who was still fighting. Several other zombies followed suit. The second rank was clearly losing the fight and suffered several more casualties. Ye Yunyi and the others quickly turned back to provide support.
However, there were too many zombies, and Wang Zichao was surrounded by several. Ye Yunyi was extremely anxious and rushed over to his rescue. As she pushed Wang Zichao away, a zombie extended its sharp claws and scratched her back, instantly leaving several deep bloody marks.
Although Wang Zichao was rescued, he was too frightened to speak when he saw that Ye Yunyi was injured. "Sister-in-law," he murmured, his lips trembling, uttering two sounds that only he could hear.
"Live well," Ye Yunyi said with a smile.
Xiao Deng rushed over and chopped off the zombie's head with a single stroke. Tears welled in his eyes as he murmured, "Sister Yiyi, Sister Yiyi."
Ye Yunyi felt hurt and a wave of sadness washed over her, but at this moment, she couldn't let everyone's morale plummet.
"Keep fighting!" she roared, turning around and killing two more zombies.
At this moment, Ye Yunyi didn't feel anything, but she knew that if she turned into a zombie in a few minutes, she would be a menace. While she was still conscious, she had to kill a few more.
So she turned and ran towards the village entrance, ran to the vehicle that had brought the weapons, opened the door, and prepared to get in.
"Yiyi." "Sister." Wang Zixiang and Zhao Yong called out.
Seeing the two running towards her, Ye Yunyi couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness, and her eyes filled with tears.
"Take care of your family," Ye Yunyi shouted to them, then resolutely got into the car, started the engine, and drove towards the horde of corpses.
Upon hearing the vehicle start, everyone automatically made way for Ye Yunyi, who drove at top speed towards the horde of zombies.
Along the way, Ye Yunyi crashed into and killed many zombies. Ignoring everything else, she drove towards the female zombie in red. By the time the female zombie noticed her, Ye Yunyi's car was already in front of her.
Ye Yunyi took out an iron chain and immediately put it around the neck of the red-clothed female zombie. She tightened the chain and sped off towards the edge of the village.
The female zombie in red was being pulled by chains as she ran alongside the car. Zombies surrounded her, trying to rescue her, but the road was narrow. Ye Yunyi just kept running, even though the front of the car, the windows, and the parking spaces were covered with zombies.
But so what? She was bitten and wouldn't survive, but she was going to fight it out. Who was afraid of who?
