Chapter 8 Save Us
As far as she knew, there were three families on the third floor, namely a young couple, a family with a grandson and grandmother, and a middle-aged couple with a son.
There are two households on the eighth floor, one is a man living alone, and the other is a young couple, the wife is pregnant.
I hope you are all well and don't disturb her.
Pu Zhi smeared the blood left by the zombie on the ground all over his body. As long as he didn't make too loud a sound, he could block most zombies.
This method can be used one or two months before the end of the world, provided that you don't get too close to the zombies.
After tying his hands with gauze, Pu Zhi went downstairs with a long knife. When he passed by the third floor, he could still hear women and children crying.
If too many zombies were attracted, it would be troublesome. Pu Zhi could only knock on the door: "The noise will attract zombies. If you don't want to die, be quiet."
There was a momentary pause in the voices inside, followed by whispers, and then footsteps approached and stopped at the door.
Perhaps because they saw Pu Zhi’s face covered in blood, not much different from a zombie, the person inside remained silent, but the crying became much quieter.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Pu Zhi did not delay and walked towards the stairs.
But I never expected that the door of Room 303 would suddenly open, and inside, an old man and a young boy appeared, one holding a stick and the other holding a kitchen knife.
It was the old lady that Pu Zhi had met before and the high school student named Zhang Xiaobai.
"Are you the sister from the sixth floor? Are you... okay?" Zhang Xiaobai stared at Pu Zhi nervously and anxiously. On the one hand, he thought that she must be a human since she could speak, but on the other hand, he was afraid that she would suddenly turn into a zombie and rush towards him.
Hearing that Pu Zhi was the little girl she had seen before, Grandma Zhang was stunned. She was covered in blood and gave off an aura that said "keep away from strangers". She was completely different from her previous harmless appearance!
Pu Zhi just glanced at the two of them, nodded coldly, and walked down the stairs in silence.
She is nearly 1.7 meters tall, and even in a black raincoat, you can still see her slender figure. Under her black shoulder-length hair is a palm-sized oval face, a tight jaw angle and a cold thin lip, which makes people subconsciously stay away from her.
Although she has a pair of affectionate eyes, her gaze is colder than her sword, and no one would choose to provoke her.
Pu Zhi's figure disappeared in the stairwell, and Zhang Xiaobai was a little unable to react.
The door of room 304 next door suddenly opened a crack. The middle-aged man looked around nervously, holding the door handle tightly, ready to close the door at any time.
Seeing that Pu Zhi was gone and Zhang Xiaobai was still outside, he mustered up the courage to stick half of his body out, his voice still a little weak after surviving a disaster: "Xiaobai, was that person just now...was that...was it a zombie?"
"It should be... right?" In fact, Zhang Xiaobai was not very sure. What if the zombies could talk?
"Is she the one on the sixth floor? She is definitely not a good person. Her face is covered in blood and it's obvious that she has killed someone. What if she goes crazy and wants to kill us?" Although he was sure that there were no zombies on the third floor, the man's squinting eyes kept moving between Zhang Xiaobai and the stairs.
Zhang Xiaobai had a serious expression, his brows furrowed tightly. "That shouldn't be the case. Didn't the zombies just walk up here? That blood might be from the zombies..."
"But……"
The middle-aged man wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Grandma Zhang: "Xiao Wang, the world is unstable. We are lucky to be alive. Don't worry about these things."
As she spoke, Grandma Zhang pulled her grandson into the house and gently closed the door. She remembered that the girl on the sixth floor said that the sound would attract zombies.
The middle-aged man surnamed Wang was angry when he saw that the two men did not listen to him, but he did not know how to vent his anger, so he could only return to his room in embarrassment.
Relying on the blood of zombies, Pu Zhi arrived at the electronics city safely. A big hole was broken in the door at some point, which was just convenient for her.
After entering, she took off her raincoat at the door and threw it on the ground. The friction sound of the raincoat was too loud and would attract zombies, making it difficult to use her fists and feet.
She had checked this place before the end of the world, and following the location in her memory, she quickly found the shop on the second floor. However, the shop was closed with a rolling shutter, and Pu Zhi could only use a butcher knife to break it open.
As the sword chopped down, the empty mall was filled with the thick and muffled echo of clang, clang, which lasted for a long time.
Ho ho——
Although the mall was closed, some zombies still sneaked in, attracted by the noise made by Puzhi.
Fortunately, there weren't many of them, only seven or eight, and they were brainless creatures, so it took them a while to find the stairs.
Amidst the symphony of zombies, Pu Zhi successfully broke open the rolling door and found two diesel generators, as well as a newest model of generator that looked particularly advanced, with a label that said "ultra-quiet."
Besides that, there were photovoltaic panels for electricity generation, and in the warehouse, there were two large barrels of diesel, about 20 liters each. Pu Zhi accepted everything.
At this time, two zombies had already found the stairs and went up to the second floor. Pu Zhi did not dare to delay and quickly went to the third floor. After walking around, he found two shops that were not closed.
One is similar to a hardware store, selling a little bit of everything, including smart remote controls, wrenches, and radios, while the other one actually sells drones!
Pu Zhi swept away all the drones and even the hardware stores, accepting all of them.
Just as the zombies ran up to the third floor, Pu Zhi ran to the fourth floor, where half of the space was occupied by snack bars. Unfortunately, only a barbecue restaurant and a milk tea shop were open.
The zombies at the beginning were so stupid that Pu Zhi stored three freezers full of meat and skewers and milk powder from the milk tea shop into the space, but only one zombie managed to catch up with them.
Pu Zhi took out a long knife and cut off his head without hesitation when he approached.
The smelly blood and pus splattered on Pu Zhi's arms and face. Her pupils dilated for a moment, but she never blinked.
The zombie's rotten head fell at his feet with a bang. His body struggled twice due to inertia, and he tried to grab Pu Zhi with his hands, but in just two seconds, his torso ran out of strength and fell down.
Seeing that the other zombies were about to catch up, Pu Zhi quickly ran to the first floor from the other side of the stairs. Just as she reached the main door, a panicked male voice suddenly rang out from the mall: "Save us!"
Pu Zhi quickly looked around the entire mall, trying to find where the sound came from.
Seeing Pu Zhi stop, the owner of the voice spoke again. His tone was obviously not as scared as before, but with a hint of command: "We are on the first floor, come and save us!"
The zombies had already reached the second floor. At this critical moment, Pu Zhi felt like laughing because she saw where the person who was talking was.
There were three big men, two with black hair and one with blond hair, hiding in a small shop. They were strong and healthy, and as long as they lured the zombies away in a planned way, they could easily kill the zombies in the mall.
But they only dared to hide in the store. They were so scared that they couldn't even hold their weapons, and needed Pu Zhi, a girl, to rescue them.
