Everyone had a dreamless night. They didn't expect that they could sleep so well while camping in the wild.
The next day, early in the morning at the campsite, there were no birdsong or flowers, no soft, warm sunshine. The sky was still gray, and the sun was hiding in the thick clouds, as if it didn't want to take another look at the world.
Su Jin and Lu Hao got up early. After washing up early, they took out various breakfasts from the space while everyone was washing up.
Milk-flavored steamed buns, sandwiches, shiny purple sweet potato porridge, fried eggs, and a few refreshing side dishes pickled by Lin Yunguo are all light and nutritious foods.
"Xiao Jin, do you have some red bean paste buns for me?" Su's mother Lin Tianhui asked secretly in Su Jin's ear.
“Yes.”
After saying that, Su Jin took out another plate of red bean paste buns made by his grandfather.
Lin Tianhui loves this one. The red bean paste inside is sweet but not greasy. The glutinous texture paired with the crisp side dishes is simply perfect.
There were a lot of red bean paste buns, and everyone ate one. They received a lot of praise. They were still hot inside and were really delicious.
Everyone was extremely satisfied after having breakfast. Even if there was no bright sunshine, everyone's heart was bright.
Just as everyone was packing up their tents, a chaotic cry came from the distant horizon.
"Is this... a bird's cry?" Aunt Lin Tianzhen took Qiqi's hand and looked towards the source of the sound.
In a short while, a flock of black birds flapped their wings and flew over from a distance.
Oh no! It's a zombie bird! A thought flashed through Su Jin's mind.
There are many kinds of zombie birds, including crows, sparrows, and geese... In short, as long as they appear in groups, they are not good things.
"Everyone get in the car quickly. These are zombie birds. Close the windows tightly and don't let them bite you!" Su Jin shouted.
"Fuck, there's such a thing?!"
Guo Yang grabbed Liao Yifan and ran towards the car.
The rest of the people also hurriedly got into the car. After Su Jin got in the car, she saw two or three tents and barbecue grills on the ground that had not been put away in time. These were no longer important because she had plenty of these things in her space.
"Drive faster and head to the woods where there are lots of trees," Su Jin said.
Based on the experience of the previous life, some zombie birds can even peck the car to pieces. If you drive to an open space, you may be attacked by a flock of birds, so you can only drive to a place with cover.
"Yeah, okay."
When a deep and familiar voice came, Su Jin felt unwell.
"Lu, Lu Hao, why are you driving..." In a hurry, Su Jin didn't even look towards the driver's seat until he heard Lu Hao's voice.
"It's me, I'm closest to the door"
Lu Hao answered while paying attention to the situation outside. He didn't mind Su Jin's questioning at all.
"Xiao Jin, I was too panicked just now. I came up carrying Qiqi." Mao Zhihang also felt a little embarrassed.
"Yes, my dear. Your mother was still tying her hair at the time. I pulled her up and didn't notice it was Xiaohao..."
Su Xiangzhe at the back was also dumbfounded. He had always thought that Mao Zhihang was driving in the front.
Both of them whispered to Su Jin in the back. After all, it was not good to say that someone was not good at driving in front of Lu Hao, right?
"Don't worry, let's get rid of these birds first. I'm very steady," said Lu Hao, holding the steering wheel steadily.
Steady... You are very steady, but your sense of direction...
Su Jin was too tired to complain. She suddenly felt that letting Lu Hao drive away was more troublesome than being caught by the zombie bird behind him. You know, there were two cars following behind. What could she do with two cars chasing a person with poor direction?!
Lin Cheng and Xue Wanyi followed Su Jin's car closely in front. The zombie bird behind was not slow either, and it didn't get rid of them at all!
"There is a forest ahead. Let's find a way in," said Su Jin. Now she could only try her best to show Lu Hao the way.
"Yeah, okay."
Lu Hao looked at the dense woods ahead, stepped on the accelerator and drove in. He was a very good driver, and although there was no road in the woods, he drove very steadily.
The zombie birds behind also flew over the woods, and some flew into the woods. However, after flying over one tree after another, it was difficult for them to catch up with the car in front. The zombie birds circling above the woods saw that they had lost their target and stopped chasing.
The crowd followed the car in front for a while, and when they saw that there were no more zombie birds behind them, they finally stopped slowly.
Su Jin got out of the car and looked at the dense woods above his head. Sure enough, there was no trace of the zombie bird.
Others also got off the car one after another. They didn’t expect that zombie animals were more difficult to deal with than zombies. They came in groups and were difficult to guard against.
"Xiao Jin, if we had fought with them just now, what would our chances of winning be?" Lu Guanhai asked after getting out of the car and sitting on the ground beside it.
"There are too many of them, and they will find loopholes. Even if we can win, I'm afraid someone will get hurt," Su Jin replied.
She remembered that in her previous life she had heard about a team of nearly four or five hundred survivors who encountered this kind of zombie bird on the way. Although there were many people with special abilities in the team, they were eventually wiped out.
"Sister Xiaojin, why can't I feel this kind of zombie animal?" Mao Qiqi had been thinking about this question just now. There seemed to be no trace of zombie birds on her small map.
"Maybe it's because they are too small. Maybe you have to wait until your ability is upgraded before you can see them." Su Jin expressed his thoughts. If it was a zombie bird, it would not pose any threat at all. Moreover, zombie birds are small in size. Either they cannot be detected by people with special abilities, or Qiqi needs to enlarge the minimap to see them?
But none of this matters anymore. They don't have to rely on Qiqi to sense every danger.
More importantly, where is this place now?
"What? The person who was driving the car and leading the way just now was Xiaohao?" Lu Guanhai jumped up from the ground. He knew how poor his son's sense of direction was.
"At worst, we can just go back the same way." Yin Chengtian hurried forward to help Lu Hao out of the predicament.
However, it seemed that no one intended to blame Captain Lu. Instead, they were actively looking at the map and compass, trying to find a way out.
"Squeak~"
“Chirp~”
The sound of rustling leaves came from all directions, and everyone stopped talking immediately and looked around vigilantly.
"Qiqi?"
Su Jin wanted to ask Mao Qiqi if she sensed anything.
Mao Qiqi frowned and shook her head. What happened? Was her mini-map not working?
"Oh, who is it? My bag!" Shi Jin suddenly shouted.
When everyone saw clearly, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be a short-tailed monkey. It took advantage of Shi Jin's inattention and snatched his bag away. It was still carefully rummaging through the contents of the bag.
Next, a shocking scene happened. Many such monkeys came out from the bushes around and surrounded everyone.
