Chapter 85: The End of Chapter 7
Almost everyone present smelled this smell, and they couldn't help but hold their breath.
Well, fortunately we didn’t encounter many zombies along the way.
Otherwise, judging from the strong smell of blood, what might be waiting for them ahead might be a large group of zombies.
But this place is really remote, how could there be such a strong smell of blood?
In a split second, all they could think of were the two mutant animals that the base commander had mentioned before departure.
Could it be that they were so unlucky that they just happened to meet?
Sun Jue scanned the surrounding environment with sharp eyes, and then asked a man with psychic powers in the team to check out the surrounding situation.
"Captain, there's no danger. There are no zombies ahead. I only sensed the life signatures of two ordinary people."
After hearing this, Sun Jue and Xiao Heng looked at each other for a moment, and when their eyes met, they immediately confirmed what they were thinking.
Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
Qing Xiaoying followed Ji Qing closely at this time, not daring to relax for a moment. She was still somewhat traumatized by the death of her predecessor.
The two captains planned to go and see the specific situation. After knowing that there was no danger ahead, everyone's hearts suddenly became lighter, and they also thought about going there.
This road is the only way to get to C, and after the end of the road, it seems a bit desolate and remote.
Deep in the overgrown woods, covered by withered vines, traces of blood spread.
These bloodstains were not fresh. The bottom layer had dried up and turned dark red, while the top layer was still bright red and sticky. After a long time, a faint fishy smell began to appear.
Everyone present had experienced the end of the world before, and was very accustomed to such scenes, without feeling any discomfort at all.
Except, Qing Xiaoying. She was not stupid, she knew that no one could care about her in this situation, but she just covered her nose and followed Ji Qing silently.
Following the blood trail, a man came to a small wooden house.
Xiao Heng noticed the crawling marks of a large animal on the ground at a glance, and his heart sank.
The movement of some people also alarmed the people in the house, and a little boy gently poked his head out from the house.
As if surprised that there were so many people outside, he suddenly retracted his head.
The boy looked only three or four years old.
Sun Jue was a straightforward person, and he shouted, "Is there anyone else in the room? We want to ask about the situation here."
After he finished speaking, he waited for a while. The room was completely silent; even the child didn't come out.
Just as Sun Jue was about to push open the door, Xiao Heng stopped him, "They are just ordinary people."
Sun Jue chuckled and scratched his head, "I don't intend to do anything to them."
Xiao Heng winked at Zhang Chuyue and Jian Yihan behind him, signaling them to open the door.
They had actually thought about the identities of the people in the house, but they never expected that one of the two people inside was a skinny old man with a slightly trembling body.
The other was a little boy with a sallow complexion and timid eyes.
Both of them hid in the corner, and the old man with gray hair and bloodshot eyes protected his grandson tightly behind him.
The two of them looked really pitiful.
Zhang Chuyue felt a little compassion, so she softened her voice, "Old man, we have no ill intentions."
"We were just passing by and wanted to ask what happened here recently."
Looking at the vigilant look in the old man's eyes, Zhang Chuyue knew that he did not trust them.
She took out a candy from her arms. The light purple packaging was very eye-catching.
In this era, even a sweet taste has become a luxury.
The little boy behind the old man's eyes suddenly brightened and he swallowed carefully.
"As long as you tell me what happened, you can give this to your grandson."
Noticing the boy's desire, the old man nodded helplessly.
From him, Zhang Chuyue learned what had happened.
