But how could they make a sound? The sound of the door being broken down was loud enough; some zombies had already heard it and were moving this way. There were also two people on the other side defending the area, and if they got closer, they would definitely be discovered. If they didn't act soon, the people behind them would catch up and they would be caught in a pincer movement.
If we were to escape, it would be too late once we reached the basement level; if we wanted to run, we should have run from the first floor.
So we have no choice but to take a gamble.
Ye Yunyi and Wang Zixiang were hiding in a small noodle shop, and in the dim light, they were trying to search their surroundings.
Suddenly, something caught Ye Yunyi's eye: a spare gas cylinder lying in the corner.
If you ignite a gas canister near them, the noise would be enough to attract zombies.
Ye Yunyi quietly told Wang Zixiang about the plan, and Wang Zixiang nodded and agreed.
They quietly approached the spare gas cylinder, searched the surrounding area, and luckily found a lighter. Ye Yunyi felt that her luck had really improved a lot since the apocalypse.
Perhaps Wang Zixiang used up all the bad luck he had in his life during the years he was in debt.
They moved the gas cylinder out, turned on the valve to let the gas leak out, and then laid it on its side, pushing it towards the man in the leather jacket.
The sound of the gas cylinder hitting the floor was particularly noticeable in the quiet basement.
It alerted not only the zombies but also the people.
\"who?\"
How could Ye Yunyi and Wang Zixiang possibly answer?
The people over there quickly brought torches for illumination, but by the time they saw the gas cylinder rolling towards them, it was too late; the cylinder had already rolled to their feet. Ye Yunyi shot the lit strip of cloth with an arrow. The gas, upon contact with the flame, exploded with a bang. (I don't know if this will work; if not, let's assume it will, mainly to advance the plot.)
The dazzling light and the enormous explosion stunned everyone.
Ye Yunyi and Wang Zixiang were already lying on the ground when they threw the lighter. The people opposite were stunned by the explosion. The closest people were instantly blown to pieces, while the others who were farther away were also blown to the ground, their bodies covered with shrapnel from the explosion. Even the guy in the leather jacket was injured.
"Retreat!" the leather-clad man shouted, leading his remaining troops in a stumbling run towards the door.
The attracted zombies had already rushed over, and some of the slower ones were grabbed and bitten, with cries of pain echoing throughout the area.
Watching the zombies show no fear of the fire, even managing to surge through it, Ye Yunyi felt a deep sense of dread. These guys really had no flaws except for destroying heads.
Unless the fire is intense enough to burn their limbs, they cannot be stopped from moving. However, they are still "alive" and can still be infected and turned into zombies if they are accidentally caught or bitten.
A short while later, the six people who had been chasing Ye Yunyi and her group came down from where they had come down.
When they saw that the spot where the leather-clad leader had stood was now filled with zombies and flames, they were terrified. They didn't dare make a sound and hurriedly retreated along the same route.
Although they drove away the leather-clad guy, the zombie horde grew even larger, and they still couldn't see the people inside the freezer.
They could also retreat along the path they came down from. Even if they encountered the six pursuers, they could be easily dealt with given their obvious disadvantage.
I still have to rush back to save my parents.
Ye Yunyi was about to turn around and leave, but looking at the increasing number of zombies and thinking that the people inside the warehouse couldn't get out, she felt that she had only done half the job.
She wasn't usually such a warm-hearted person, but a voice inside her kept telling her that she had to rescue the people in the freezer.
She finally made up her mind to continue sending blessings to the west.
Then lure the zombies away or eliminate them.
Eliminating them is definitely not an option; she doesn't have that many arrows, and there are only 40-50 of them. It seems the only option is to lure them away.
Without the gas cylinder, how can it be moved?
They waited for about 20 more minutes. The zombies had finished eating and were moving around unsteadily in the vicinity. Because of the smell of blood, they were reluctant to leave, sniffing here and there.
Ye Yunyi and Wang Zixiang took out some more bowls from the cupboard and smashed them from near to far from where the zombies were. Most of the zombies moved away with the sound of the bowls breaking, which lured away most of them.
After smashing all the pots and pans, Ye Yunyi and Wang Zixiang finally lured the zombies to a place about 20 meters away from where they were.
After waiting for another 10 minutes or so, the zombies went into hibernation again. Ye Yunyi and Wang Zixiang quietly emerged from their hiding place, and the firelight from before was about to go out.
As Ye Yunyi walked, she nocked an arrow and fired, killing all the zombies at the entrance of the freezer.
Just as Ye Yunyi and Wang Zixiang were about to reach the door, the door opened, and arrows shot out from inside, joining them in killing the remaining zombies.
After all the zombies were shot down, the archer shouted to the people inside, "Juan, it's safe now, come out quickly."
"That voice sounds familiar," Ye Yunyi said as she walked side by side with Wang Zixiang.
“Yes, I think so too,” Wang Zixiang replied.
As they were talking, they arrived at the entrance of the cold storage, and a woman leading a child came out of the cold storage.
They were very dirty, their clothes were almost unrecognizable, and their hair was messy and disheveled, but Ye Yunyi still recognized them.
But the woman recognized her even faster than Ye Yunyi. She only glanced at her before choking out, "Sister."
She rushed forward, crying, and hugged Ye Yunyi.
"Sister. Is it really you?" Ye Yunyi hugged her sister back.
The realistic touch and temperature brought tears to her eyes.
"That's great, you're still alive, that's great."
The two sisters recognized each other, and Zhao Yong and Wang Zixiang also recognized each other and chatted briefly.
“Auntie,” Zhao Xixi called out sweetly.
"Good girl." Ye Yunyi squatted down and looked at Zhao Xixi, who was obviously much thinner, and said with heartache, "Come on, let's go home with your aunt. There are lots of delicious things to eat at your aunt's house."
"Mmm." Zhao Xixi nodded happily.
"Let's go, we can't stay here any longer. We need to get back quickly, Mom and Dad are waiting for us," Ye Yunyi said.
They looted all the supplies left on the ground and from the bodies of the zombies they had killed, including knives and guns.
There were six handguns in total. This was the first time they had ever received money from them. Although they didn't know how to use them, it didn't stop them from being happy.
They reached the ground, Ye Yunyi found their BMW, and Zhao Yong found the car they had driven there. After a long journey and changing cars several times, this one was still usable. So they drove off in both cars towards the path behind the mountain.
Ye Yunyi was very happy throughout the journey. She let her younger sister and Xixi ride in her car, while Zhao Yong followed behind with their parents. Zhao Xixi was very tired, and finally able to stretch her legs and rest in the BMW, she lay down on Ye Yunjuan's lap and quickly fell asleep.
