Chapter 43 This is our yard



Before Li Jianguo could react, he had already been thrown off the roof of the pickup truck by the crowd.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Chen Zhou threw down a baseball bat.

Before Li Jianguo could even process what was happening after landing, the zombies surrounding the residential area surged towards him like cats smelling fish.

At the critical moment, Chen Zhou directly fired a shot at the zombie charging at the front.

Some of the zombies that were originally rushing towards Li Jianguo were startled by the gunshots and instead rammed into the pickup truck where Chen Zhou was standing.

Those who threw Li Jianguo were so frightened that they all walked into the residential area.

Even Li Nana couldn't help but speak up: "We don't have many bullets left. We agreed to save them for the most dangerous time. How could you give them to a murderer?"

Chen Zhou did not answer Li Nana.

In his mind, this is the most crucial moment.

While continuously firing at the zombies approaching Li Jianguo, Chen Zhou also reminded Li Jianguo: "The wall around the small courtyard across the street has an electric fence, don't try to go in. You can go to the bungalow behind the courtyard!"

Taking advantage of the lull, Li Jianguo picked up a baseball bat from the ground and started hitting the zombies on the head with it. Together with Chen Zhou, they broke through the horde of zombies and sprinted towards the other side of the residential area.

Qiao An'an and the others, who had been watching the situation across the street from the residential area, suddenly sensed something was wrong.

A sunken boat may represent a virtuous person.

But Li Jianguo is an absolute scoundrel. If he had discovered that there was water and supplies in their courtyard, he certainly wouldn't have left on his own like Chen Zhou did.

Grandpa Gu set up his sniper rifle and aimed from the second floor: "If he dares to break in, I'll blow his head off."

Qiao An'an suddenly remembered that the tunnel connecting the small courtyard to the back house was still open, and hurriedly called to Gu Bei and Chi Xiaoyu: "If he hides in the back house, he will find the tunnel we dug. The tunnel contains our winter food. Come downstairs with me quickly and block the entrance to the back courtyard. We absolutely cannot let him go down into the tunnel!!!"

Gu Bei panicked a little: "What about the corn at the back?"

Qiao An'an shook her head: "Those corns haven't grown properly yet, and it's too late to harvest them now, so we don't want them!"

The yard full of corn in the back was originally intended for them to use during the winter, and now that they had lost so much food, everyone was quite sad.

Thinking back to the two months when my grandfather and I lived in the neighborhood without food or water.

While moving things to block the entrance to the underground tunnel at the back, Gu Bei asked with great concern, "Without the corn at the back, will we be able to eat it in the winter?"

Qiao An'an patted Gu Bei's head and comforted him, "We have sweet potatoes, greenhouses, and seeds. We can grow a lot of things, so don't worry!"

While Qiao An'an and the others were blocking the entrance to the small courtyard behind the house, Li Jianguo had already rushed across the road. Just as Grandpa Gu Bei was about to pull the trigger, Li Jianguo suddenly changed direction and rushed towards the side path.

Grandpa Gu Bei's shot hit the zombie behind Li Jianguo directly.

Li Jianguo was taken aback.

Actually, his first target was the small courtyard. He had seen this courtyard across from his apartment building when he was drinking on the rooftop. He knew that there was a well, crops, and a pond inside. The courtyard was also surrounded by a wall more than 4 meters high, making it very safe.

Fortunately, he listened to Chen Zhou and didn't go into the courtyard, otherwise he would have been the one with the head blown off.

Just as surprised as Li Jianguo were Song Chi and Wu Huifang, who had been watching the small courtyard.

Song Chi had originally planned to visit Qiao An'an in the courtyard when he had the chance, but now that there was a sniper there, he dared not approach.

While in Shen Zhou's car, Wu Huifang noticed that Qiao An'an's small courtyard had a well and crops, which meant that the courtyard could guarantee a normal life. Most importantly, it had well water, and the conditions were better than the community they lived in now. Her best idea was to encourage her son to take over the small courtyard so that she and her grandson would no longer have to wander around.

However, since the other party has a gun, the chances of seizing it are slim.

How could such good conditions be given to that bitch Qiao An'an?

Wu Huifang grew angrier the more she thought about it. This courtyard was built with her family's money, and her eldest grandson couldn't even take a proper bath. Why should Qiao An'an and that good-for-nothing get to do it?

She won't allow anyone else to have what she can't have!

Many residents in the neighborhood were surprised to learn that there were people living in the small courtyard across the street: "Weren't those supposed to be abandoned houses slated for demolition?"

Those who went out with Shen Zhou knew there was someone in the courtyard: "You're so out of touch."

Only Chen Zhou kept his eyes fixed on the direction Li Jianguo ran off in, wondering if he had completely gotten rid of the zombies.

At this moment, Li Jianguo had already hidden in the courtyard of the bungalow behind the small courtyard, but the wall of the small courtyard was too low and could not stop the zombies at all.

Li Jianguo could only struggle through the cornfield and rush into the three dilapidated bungalows, frantically blocking the doorway with furniture in hopes of stopping the zombies outside.

However, there were too many zombies outside, and the dilapidated wooden door was no match for their attacks. Soon, a piece of the wooden board was pierced by a grayish-blue zombie hand, and before long, the entire door would be destroyed by the zombies.

After dealing with the zombies for so long, Li Jianguo was extremely exhausted.

He almost thought of just giving up and letting the zombies bite him to death.

But the image of my mother in pain during her heart attack is still vivid in my mind.

He told himself he couldn't die yet; he had to live no matter what, at least until he killed Wu Huifang's family.

In order to survive, he moved the old furniture piled up in the main room to the doorway to block it.

However, there were too many zombies, and the wooden planks and some dilapidated furniture did nothing to stop their attacks.

But just as he moved an old piece of furniture to the front door, the roar of zombies came from the back door again. Before long, the front and back of the dilapidated house were surrounded by zombies. He had just used the furniture to block the front door when the back door was being rammed by zombies. Even the window next to the back door had been smashed by zombies, and a zombie had climbed in through the window.

He killed one zombie with a stick, but soon a second and a third started climbing in through the window.

The door, unable to withstand the weight, collapsed.

He thought he was about to die on the spot, but unexpectedly he found a hole made of a wooden board under the messy furniture. Without thinking, he lifted the board and saw several small heads trying to block the hole with something.

At this moment, the little heads below also noticed Li Jianguo above the cave entrance.

The people in the courtyard often used binoculars to observe the opposite community, and they all knew that Li Jianguo was a very difficult person to mess with and was also a super good fighter.

Gu Bei, being young, screamed in fright.

Chi Xiaoyu alertly drew her bow and arrow, pointing it at Li Jianguo above the cave entrance.

However, her position was somewhat awkward.

She wasn't sure she could hit the person above the hole with an arrow.

Qiao An'an noticed Chi Xiaoyu's hesitation and looked up at Li Jianguo above the cave entrance: "This is our yard!!!"
