A series of flashing car lights tore through the silent night, everyone sat in the carriage holding their rifles and drowsy, Zhang Xiaoqiang sat in the bumpy off-road vehicle and looked at the darkness outside the vehicle.
The convoy did not return the same way, but headed in another direction. When they came, they passed through several settlements. These settlements had not been cleaned up, and the zombies were densely packed in them. It didn’t matter during the day, but it might be dangerous at night. Zhang Xiaoqiang gave up. After returning to the base, I wanted to find a secluded place to deal with it overnight.
One of Zhang Xiaoqiang's team members was a local, and he knew a safer place, so Zhang Xiaoqiang decided to take people there for the night, and return to the prison tomorrow morning to retrieve the ammunition.
After leaving the prison, the convoy drove for about half an hour before driving up a small hill. On the top of the hill was an old bungalow of unknown age, which had already been turned into ruins. Tall weeds, broken bricks scattered everywhere.
There are many bowl-sized trees around the ruins, but the leaves are all gone, and there are no tree species to be seen in the dark. After everyone got off the car, they were blown by the night wind from the top of the mountain. Began to wake up, some people moved the materials and cooking utensils out of the car, some people collected dry branches and wood on the mountain with flashlights, two slightly injured and two seriously injured were also helped to the ground to find Place to sit and watch the people busy.
Not long after, a raging bonfire ignited. Someone set up a big pot on the fire, poured clean water into it and put rice in it, and someone cut a bag of pickled vegetables into four evenly with a knife, and distributed a portion to everyone. A quarter of the pickled cabbage is today's dish, even Zhang Xiaoqiang is not an exception. He took out the lunch box from the satchel and put the quarter of the pickled cabbage, watching the campfire and waiting for the meal.
Except for the two guards, the others were sitting by the fire to keep warm. The third son was very abnormal and a little restless. He would check whether the guards had concealed himself well, and then check the 92 hanging on the truck. The infantry cannon was hung tightly, and he found two stones under the cannon wheel to feel at ease. After that, he went to check the injuries of the lightly and severely wounded until the rice was cooked... When Zhang Xiaoqiang was eating, he saw two people holding He was a little strange, looking at the red meat, he suddenly remembered the big rats they fought with today, and some of the rats were killed by the airflow of high-explosive bombs. Isn't it the same color after being torn apart
"Is this rat meat? Can it be eaten?" Zhang Xiaoqiang asked curiously as he watched the two happily grilling.
"It's edible. The meat is very tender. Our village has the habit of eating rat meat. I grew up as a snack. All the rats in the field were eaten by the people of our village..."
Listening to a team member who was holding rat meat, Zhang Xiaoqiang was shocked, not because they ate rat meat, but because they said that the rats in the whole village and the voles in the field were eaten by them
You must know that rats are a tenacious species that claim to be able to survive the destruction of the world, but now Zhang Xiaoqiang actually heard that this powerful creature would be eaten and extinct. Just when he felt incredible, the smell of barbecue came over... eating Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't feel disgusted by the rat meat in his mouth, but felt that he hadn't eaten this kind of fresh barbecue for a long time, and he couldn't even remember it for a long time.
Seeing Zhang Xiaoqiang eating deliciously, the others swallowed their saliva while watching the barbecue. One of them laughed when he saw that everyone was looking at him. The two mice were tightly wrapped in a bag. These two mice had their paws chopped off, their heads and tails chopped off. Rows of ribs were embedded in the bright red lean meat, so they looked more like skinned rabbits.
Everyone stepped forward one after another, and after a while the rats were all separated. Branches strung with rat meat stretched out towards the bright red bonfire. Looking at the team members roasting rat meat in front of them, Zhang Xiaoqiang remembered the mountain of rat corpses and began to Thinking... When he came back to his senses, he looked up and saw the third son standing in the distance looking at him, as if he wanted to say something to himself, Zhang Xiaoqiang got up and walked towards the third son, the two stood on the edge of the fire, behind them It is endless darkness.
"Brother Cockroach... I... I'm afraid... I can't do it well..."
Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't speak, just listened to the third son's narration. The third son thought that his performance today was very poor. He wondered if he would perform better with another person. Seeing those dead and injured players, he Feeling guilty, he felt ashamed to see those injured players, let alone continue working as the captain.
Zhang Xiaoqiang patted him on the shoulder and said: "You paid so much tuition today, if you quit, those team members would have died in vain? Remember, there is no one who is immortal in a battle."
After Zhang Xiaoqiang finished speaking, he turned around and left. The third son was still standing there and didn't know what he was thinking. As the firewood burned out, the figure of the third son was slowly covered by the darkness... Tired all day, Zhang Xiaoqiang asked all the team members to Going to sleep, I also found a broken wall to lean against and closed my eyes, a soft body slowly leaned against his left arm, smelling the familiar chime fragrance on her body, he knew it was Shangguan Qiaoyun next to her. He sat, he didn't move any more, and fell asleep holding the horn gun in his hand.
Zhang Xiaoqiang in his sleep felt someone shaking him, he woke up suddenly, pulled out the pistol at his waist and opened his eyes.
The bonfire was still burning, presumably it was the firewood added by the brothers who kept watch at night. The burning bonfire was full of tired combat team members. Zhang Xiaoqiang saw Shangguan Qiaoyun's big shining eyes through the light of the bonfire. Shangguan Qiaoyun Seeing Zhang Xiaoqiang wake up, he pointed to the mountain and whispered in his ear: "I always want to shoot over there..."
Before Shangguan Qiaoyun finished speaking, Zhang Xiaoqiang felt a sense of crisis was coming. He pulled Shangguan Qiaoyun up from the ground, and when he got to the campfire, he woke up all the team members. It was relatively shallow, and he woke up when Zhang Xiaoqiang whispered to wake up the team members.
"What's the matter, Brother Cockroach?" Seeing Zhang Xiaoqiang waking everyone up in a low voice, he also asked in a low voice.
"There is something below, be careful." Zhang Xiaoqiang said to the third son in a low voice. After hearing this, the third son organized everyone to prepare guns and bullets. He touched the two guards... The bonfire had been extinguished by cold water, and it was dark all around. Although some combat team members leaned against the car with Bayi-style rifles, they listened quietly to the movement down the mountain.
The 250 ammunition belt on the Type 53 heavy machine gun has been loaded, and the thick and straight muzzle is aimed directly at the bushes at the foot of the mountain. This is the quietest moment. There is no sound of burning flames, no snoring of sleeping players, no When a person exhales even a little heavily, they all wait quietly.
Suddenly a black shadow came slowly, the direction of the black shadow was the secret whistle over there, Zhang Xiaoqiang called softly.
"Brother Cockroach...it's me!" The third son returned in a low voice, he touched Zhang Xiaoqiang's side, Zhang Xiaoqiang couldn't see the expression of the third son who was right in front of him in the dark.
"Brother Cockroach, the two guarding brothers are finished..." Zhang Xiaoqiang immediately interrupted the third son's whisper, and asked him, "Do you know what it is made of?"
The third son was silent for a few seconds, "It's a human... It's a living person. The two brothers were wiped off their necks and stripped off their bodies. There was nothing left, not even their shoes."
Hearing what the third son said, Zhang Xiaoqiang breathed a sigh of relief. He was most afraid of encountering mutant beasts at night in the wild, but he was least afraid of people. He had a rifle in his hand, brothers under his command, and a heavy machine gun by his side. What else? Can people come here to please themselves
He whispered: "It's easy to deal with if it's a person. No matter who it is, I will ask him to repay the person who cheated me." After finishing speaking, he took out two glass bottles of liquor and handed them to the third son.
The third son fumbled to take the two bottles, a strong smell of gasoline spread to his nose, he touched the cloth plugged with gasoline and wanted to ask questions.
"You just hide on the side, and when you hear any movement, you light it up and throw it out. At that time, they will be showing that we are hiding."
