Chapter 35 Farmhouse Fun
"Something's not right! There wasn't even a single zombie here yesterday, so why are there so many of them suddenly appearing today?" Jiang Xianchuan frowned and muttered to himself in confusion.
He was watching the zombies appearing around him with caution, and thinking about the reason in his mind. According to common sense, these zombies should be gathering towards the center of the city.
"It's really strange. I have no idea what happened. Why don't we change the route quickly to avoid getting into greater danger." Shi Yi on the side was also very surprised, but he quickly calmed down and quickly took out the map to check it carefully.
After some research, she made a decisive decision: "If we go around a farm house here, maybe we can avoid these zombies and leave the city smoothly." After that, she pointed to the location of the farm house marked on the map.
"Okay, let's do it!"
They carefully shuttled through the deserted streets, always alert to the movements around them. From time to time, those hideous-looking, slow-moving zombies emerged from dark corners, making people shudder.
However, these three people were agile and coordinated well. Whenever a zombie approached, they would always react quickly, either killing it with their sharp weapons or cleverly avoiding the attack and continuing to move forward.
Along the way, they experienced countless thrilling encounters, but they were all able to overcome them with their tenacious will and outstanding combat skills.
Finally, after a difficult journey, they arrived in front of the farmhouse. It was unusually quiet here, as if time had stopped.
There was no sign of life around, only the closed gate and the high walls, revealing a mysterious and oppressive atmosphere. The entire farmhouse was shrouded in a dead silence, which made people shudder.
"It looks like there's no one here." Just as Jiang Xianchuan was about to leave, an old man with white hair poked his head out from the rooftop in the yard.
"If you don't want to die, get out of here quickly!" The old man with a haggard face and fierce eyes roared fiercely. His hoarse and low voice seemed to be able to penetrate people's souls, making people shudder.
However, Jiang Xianchuan, who was standing opposite, did not take the threatening words seriously. He only raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a contemptuous smile, as if he did not take the old man's warning to heart at all.
In fact, Jiang Xianchuan already had a plan in mind, and he had no intention of staying here for long.
"Dad! Xiaoyan may not be able to hold on any longer!" Just as Jiang Xianchuan turned around and was about to leave, a panicked woman ran to the top of the building and shouted at the old man with a sad face.
Hearing this, the muscles on the old man's face trembled suddenly, and his originally calm expression was instantly occupied by worry. He widened his eyes, his lips trembled slightly, and after a moment of silence, as if he had made up his mind, he turned around, looked at Jiang Xianchuan and others with anxious and anxious eyes, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Do you have any medicine? We are willing to exchange anything with you!"
Jiang Xianchuan raised his eyebrows with interest when he heard this, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He looked up and down at the anxious old man in front of him, and replied slowly: "Well... it's not that there is no room for negotiation. However, if you want to get the medicine, you have to agree to let us stay here for one night." After saying that, he crossed his arms and waited for the other party's response leisurely.
"Okay! I promise you!" The old man answered without hesitation, his voice loud and decisive. Not long after, a group of hurried footsteps were heard coming down the stairs. With a slight "creak", the door slowly opened, and the old man's slightly haggard face appeared in front of everyone.
Jiang Xianchuan and others rushed in and followed the old man into a dim room. They saw a pale, barely breathing woman lying on the bed, swaying like a candle in the wind and about to fall.
Jiang Xianchuan walked quickly to the bedside. He stretched out his right hand and gently stroked the woman's forehead. A scalding heat instantly passed to his fingertips. He frowned slightly and asked, "How long have you had a fever?"
Another woman standing nearby had already burst into tears and couldn't speak. She sobbed and replied, "It's been three days... She has had a high fever for three days, and we have tried everything but it's useless."
Jiang Xianchuan's eyes became more serious when he heard this. He quickly turned around and reached into his backpack to search. After a moment, he took out several boxes of antipyretic drugs and antibiotics from his backpack like a magic trick, and handed them to the crying woman with skillful movements, and instructed: "Give her these medicines according to the instructions first. If she doesn't get better tomorrow, come back to me."
