Chapter 6 Teammates Betray
Yao Tao pulled the trigger expressionlessly.
The sound of the airgun was low: "Bang!"
The mutant rat pounced on Li Lin's back and bit him wildly. After the gunshot, it let out a scream, and its fat body fell to the ground, kicking its four legs wildly.
"Bang!"
Another shot.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!" The second mutant rat also screamed as it was shot.
Yao Tao put down the air gun, glanced at Song Lianqiu who was still shouting "she wanted to kill someone", and turned away.
Song Lianqiu was shocked.
Qin Jiang was the first to react. He pushed Song Lianqiu aside and chased after him, "Wait a moment."
Yao Tao carried the air gun on her back and a waterproof backpack on the other side of her shoulder. She ignored Qin Jiang and went into a nearby store selling small appliances.
The glass door was shattered all over the floor. When Qin Jiang stepped on it, it made a crisp "crack" sound, which scared him so much that he quickly stepped back.
If your foot is cut by glass at this time, it is no joke.
Yao Tao walked into the store, swept the flashlight across the shelves, and her eyes lit up.
Breakfast machines, blenders, bread machines, and light meal machines are all available.
These small appliances are indispensable for high-quality life in the apocalypse.
In her new life, she didn't want to just make a packet of instant noodles to get by like she did in her previous life.
She must love herself well and enjoy this hard-earned rebirth.
With a wave of his hand, all the small appliances in the store were put into the space.
The entire wholesale city was out of power, and the store was pitch black. Qin Jiang, standing outside the store, couldn't see what she was doing at all.
After leaving the store, Qin Jiang was still standing there. "Thank goodness you saved us just now. Where did you get that air rifle? Do you still have one? Can you give me one? I can shoot too. I can help you protect everyone."
In the darkness, a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of Yao Tao's mouth.
In the apocalypse, no one would hand a weapon to a stranger.
Your life is only safe if you hold it in your own hands.
"I only found one. You can go over there and see if there are any more." She pointed casually.
Qin Jiang didn't expect Yao Tao to refuse. "Don't you trust me? My name is Qin Jiang, these are Zhong Huaiming and Song Lianqiu, and the uncle in the back is Li Lin."
Yao Tao glanced at the middle-aged man who was at the end and looked miserable.
Li Lin's body was covered in blood, and he had no idea how many wounds he had been bitten by the mutant rats. He was now slumped on the ground, gasping for breath.
Yao Tao realized that Li Lin was being used by these three people.
Li Lin thought Yao Tao was worried about him, so he smiled bitterly and said, "Fortunately, the injury is not serious, not fatal."
"The most terrifying thing is getting infected after being bitten by a mutant rat." Yao Tao said lightly.
As soon as these words were spoken, Song Lianqiu and Zhong Huaiming seemed to remember something. They supported each other and stood up, keeping a distance from Li Lin.
Li Lin: ???
Song Lianqiu shivered: "He won't turn into a zombie, right?"
Zhong Huaiming whispered to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, if he turns into a zombie, this woman will kill him."
Qin Jiang was more rational than Zhong Huaiming. He asked Yao Tao, "We have already told you our names. Can you tell us what your name is?"
"Yao Tao." She didn't mind saying her name. It was still unknown whether these people could survive.
After being bitten by a mutant rat, the body will have a high fever or an allergic reaction.
This is human mutation.
Unfortunately, humans do not gain superpowers after mutation as described in novels.
All they got was death.
If there is no medicine to treat it, the patient will die sooner or later.
The strongest person she had seen in her previous life survived for five days, but still died in the end.
Moreover, there is no specific medicine to treat mutant animal bites. All treatments are conservative, mainly focusing on reducing fever and eliminating allergic symptoms. The rest depends on the physical condition.
Qin Jiang's expression was serious. "The mouse has grown so big. What happened outside?"
"The end of the world is coming."
Song Lianqiu and Zhong Huaiming stared at Li Lin at the same time, as if he were looking at a zombie.
"Are there zombies outside?" Qin Jiang asked.
"Do you think this is a plot from a novel?"
Qin Jiang looked at Li Lin, "Then he..."
"He won't turn into a zombie, he'll just die."
When Li Lin heard that he was going to die, his body shook.
Song Lianqiu suddenly screamed, "Am I going to die too? I'm bleeding here. Woo woo woo, I'm still so young and beautiful, I don't want to die..."
Zhong Huaiming was also very scared, but he still helped Song Lianqiu carefully check the bleeding leg first.
It turned out that Song Lianqiu's leg was scratched by the gravel on the ground when she fell.
Just because Song Lianqiu is fine doesn’t mean that Zhong Huaiming and Qin Jiang are fine too.
Both of them had marks on their legs from being scratched by mutant rats. Although their injuries were not as serious as Li Lin's, they were still bleeding.
Zhong Huaiming was so anxious, "Hurry, protect us and get out. I want to go to the hospital."
Li Lin also struggled to stand up.
He believed what Yao Tao said was true because he could already feel something strange in his body.
Strength seemed to be draining away, and breathing was becoming increasingly difficult.
"It's your own business if you want to go out, don't drag me along." Yao Tao refused coldly.
Zhong Huaiming was furious when he saw Yao Tao refused to protect them. "How about you give us the air gun and we can go on our own?"
Yao Tao was so angry that she laughed, "Why should I give you my own things? Why don't you look at your face in the mirror?"
"What do you mean..." Zhong Huaiming didn't react.
Yao Tao had already walked away and entered another shop.
"She said you're shameless." Song Lianqiu, fearing trouble would break out, instigated, "We have more people, why don't we grab her air rifle? No one's watching here anyway, and you two grown men can definitely beat her."
Zhong Huaiming looked at Qin Jiang and said, "I think it's okay."
A strange look flashed across Qin Jiang's eyes, but he quickly concealed it. He nodded happily, "Okay, let's start from behind her." As he said that, he found a steel pipe from the ground.
Seeing this, Zhong Huaiming also took out a cigarette as a weapon.
Li Lin saw Zhong Huaiming and Qin Jiang trying to kill someone and quickly stopped them, "You can't... She saved us twice..."
Zhong Huaiming turned around and hit Li Lin on the head.
Li Lin was completely unprepared. He felt his face flush. He raised his hand and touched it. It was covered in blood. "You..."
He gritted his teeth in hatred.
He saved the three of them with good intentions, but he didn't expect that they were ungrateful.
Zhong Huaiming hit Li Lin on the head again.
Li Lin fell to the ground, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
Zhong Huaiming no longer cared about Li Lin, and he and Qin Jiang entered the shop that Yao Tao had just entered, one after another.
Yao Tao was looking for something on the shelf with her back to them.
Zhong Huaiming gave Qin Jiang a wink.
Qin Jiang understood.
The two men raised the steel pipes in their hands at the same time...
Suddenly Yao Tao turned around and faced them, holding a curved meat-cleaver in each hand.
The sharp blade is particularly eye-catching in the darkness.
Zhong Huaiming could even feel the cool air emanating from the real sword.
"Bang!" Suddenly he was hit hard on the head.
Zhong Huaiming turned around in surprise and looked at the person who had just hit him.
Qin Jiang held the steel pipe in his hand and looked at him fiercely, "I can't let you hurt anyone again. She saved us twice. I'm sorry..."
Zhong Huaiming never expected that his teammates would turn against him.
He didn't even have time to utter a curse before his eyes rolled back and he fell straight back.
Qin Jiang went up and hit Zhong Huaiming twice more, and only smiled at Yao Tao after Zhong Huaiming was completely dead. "I'm sorry I scared you. I didn't expect he would want to hurt you. Luckily I discovered it in time."
Song Lianqiu, who was standing in the distance, was stunned.
The plot was moving too fast and her brain was not able to keep up.
