Don’t Be a Kept Man

Chapter 164: In this prosperous world, please keep it in your heart

Views:

This is a piece of history that will be recorded in the annals of history, and the knife is as deep in everyone's heart.

It was cloudy that day, and tens of thousands of zombies came from all directions, trying to encircle and occupy the last pure land of human existence. At that time, the food that the base personnel tried to grow had just sprouted, and the serum developed by Professor Bai made progress. Hope, so unexpectedly shattered by reality.

The head of the base wore a neat military uniform with a solemn expression. He stood under the high platform in the central area. The flagpole behind him was cold, and the red flag rang in the cold wind, becoming the only color in this gray and defeated world. Among the survivors, no one made a sound, only his old and determined voice echoed in the square.

"In 1976, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake occurred in city a, killing 242,000 people and seriously injuring 164,000 people."

"In 1998, the catastrophic Yangtze River flood affected 223 million people and killed 4,150 people."

"In 2008, a magnitude 8.0 earthquake occurred in Z province, killing 69,227 people."

"How hard it is to build a country, every time a catastrophe is encountered, there must be angry people who go forward and go to them generously, without causing the mountains and rivers of China to collapse. We have experienced countless disasters in the past and sacrificed countless compatriots. This disaster may lead to more deaths. But I still believe that we will not be overwhelmed."

"Plague didn't wipe out mankind, famine didn't, and this catastrophe, couldn't—"

The head of the base has gray hair, and his back has been polished over the years, and his back has been slightly hunched, but he still tries his best to straighten his back, and his gaze swept across the silent crowd below.

"I want to tell you that this catastrophe will be difficult to survive, because the base is surrounded by zombies in all directions, we have no way to retreat, we can't escape, and we can't even get a little breathing time, but we still You have to go forward, you can't lose and you can't lose!"

"No one can be less in this fight, and no one can get away from it. The army is in the front, and the powers are behind to assist. This is an order, not a request. I am old and useless, but I still have a gun. I I will stand on the city wall with you and drive out the zombies!"

There is still some distance from the city wall. As time passed, the low roar of zombies came from far away, like the horn of death. , The troops behind the square also raised their hands to salute, their movements uniform and solemn.

Before the end of the world, they will rush ahead.

After the end of the world, this is still the case, using the weak flesh and blood as the rear to block the gunfire and smoke.

Even though many of them are ordinary people, the weight on their shoulders and the military uniform on their bodies motivate them to move forward bravely and be invincible.

The team of superpowers is in the middle. They are the backbone of this base. There are men and women, old and young. Before the virus raged, they might be students on the roadside, white-collar workers in office buildings, or even white-collar workers in office buildings. It's a street ruffian.

They are all Chinese.

There was a low voice of suppressed crying in the crowd. They all knew that the final outcome of this war might not be very good. If it was worse, it might even wipe out the entire army, but at this moment, no one retreated, even if they were separated of life and death.

In the face of disaster, human beings are so small and weak as ants, but they don't mind running together to a massive death.

The trucks loaded with soldiers drove away one by one and rushed to the battlefield. Tao Xiran clenched his teeth silently, looked at the seven team members, and then turned into a half-loaded military vehicle. They were dressed in civilian clothes and mixed in a pile of camouflage. In color, it is so striking.

Tao Xiran may have cried, his eyes were reddish, and his voice was hoarse: "We are supernatural powers, we have supernormal powers, we should be in front."

God gave them powers, not only to protect themselves, but to protect more people.

Seeing this, the captain of the first team suddenly turned over and got on the car. The rest of the team members were stunned for a moment and followed closely. Tao Xiran looked at the tall and strong man beside him and couldn't help sniffing: "Follow me. doing what."

The man was silent for a moment: "I am a veteran."

The trucks drove away, and the number of people in the square was gradually decreasing. Pei Ran was also in the crowd. He was located in the back, and it was not easy to find. His eyebrows that were always flying suddenly became silent at this moment, and he looked up into the distance—

The sound of gunfire and gunfire had already sounded there, and if you sniffed, you could even smell the smell of gunpowder and blood.

Fresh bloody smell.

The endless number of zombies, densely packed, blocked the last retreat of human beings. They surrounded the base in an airtight manner, and even began to climb up the city wall. One soldier was accidentally caught, and his body fell heavily on the ground. The rest The zombies drowned him like a flood.

His squad leader's eyes were red, and he shot at the zombies below with a gun. He shouted his name hoarsely, and let people put down the sling, trying to save him, and finally cleared a small space for breathing.

"Squad leader!"

The soldier stood up staggeringly, his green uniform was soaked in blood, and he was already scratched by zombies. He was still young and his face was immature, but he did not grab the sling, but finally glanced at the city wall. The teammates who fought hard, then turned around and rushed into the zombie group, and pulled out the grenade—

I only heard a loud bang, and in an instant, dust splashed around, flesh and blood flew, and everything disappeared.

This seems to be God's punishment for human beings. They have not had time to develop serum, and even if they try to breathe every second, countless lives will continue to die in front of them, and countless grenades will explode one after another.

It was a group of unknown people with great youth, dragged to the front by mission and duty.

Their blood will flow over every inch of the land under their feet, their flesh and blood will be buried in the mountains and rivers, and then the next spring will be warm and flowers will bloom again.

Pei Ran's feet were as heavy as lead, and he shattered his thoughts of escape into thousands of pieces. Only by running forward could he get a moment of respite so that he would no longer be ashamed of his despicable selfish behavior. .

He hugged Qu Yan for the last time, with the coolness of late autumn on his fingertips, and said in a low voice, "Wait for me to come back."

Qu Yan instantly understood what he was thinking, his eyes narrowed, and then he clenched his wrist and said word by word, "Don't go, I will protect you."

"I won't let you die."

Pei Ran shook his head silently, his vision blurred for a moment. He knew that Qu Yan had lost his normal human emotions due to his childhood experiences, so he didn't know how to tell Qu Yan that he didn't decide to go forward because he was afraid of death at this moment. .

Pei Ran kissed his cheek: "We shouldn't meet in such a world..."

The sky should be as blue as wash, the flowers should be in full bloom under the feet, the long asphalt road has been winding to the sky, the sun hangs at the end, and then the sunset and the moon rise, the stars are full at night, and the world is full of fireworks.

They should have met earlier.

As early as when Qu Yan was scalded by a cigarette butt for the first time, when Qu Yan was beaten by a rattan for the first time, as early as when Qu Yan was injured for the first time... Pei Ran thought that he should have appeared at that time.

as said before.

Go to the same school as Qu Yan, sit in the same classroom, write the same paper, and look up at the same sky.

Qu Yan faintly felt that he was losing something, and he couldn't save it with all his strength. He clenched Pei Ran's hand tightly and refused to let go: "If I say that there is a zombie king in the zombie group that I can't kill, you Are you still going?"

Pei Ran still said that: "Wait for me to come back."

He slowly and firmly pulled Qu Yan's hand away, then pressed the brim of his hat, turned around and got on the truck loaded with power users, and soon disappeared into the crowded and noisy crowd.

This time, he couldn't hold him back.

Qu Yan doesn't like this world.

Pei Ran doesn't like this kind of world.

A word difference, a world of difference.

At this moment, even Qu Yan was thinking, it would be great if they met sooner, so that his heart would not rot to the point where there is no cure.

Does he want to watch Pei Ran die...

Or gamble with your life to save this world that has never been kind to yourself...

The battle ahead was far more tragic than imagined, with rivers of blood, thousands of miles of bare ground, piles of corpses under their feet, and a black and mottled gun clenched in their broken hands. He also began to climb up the city wall, and smashed the zombies that climbed up with the steel pipe iron rod in his hand.

All kinds of supernatural power knives emanated from the city wall like rain. Pei Ran and a few thunder-type superpowers mobilized the supernatural power array around the base. The electric current pierced and exploded like thunder in the dark and dull night sky. With a loud noise, a large number of zombies were electrocuted into coke, but there was still a steady stream of zombies crowding forward.

They are tireless, but people can't. Before long, their abilities have been exhausted.

Pei Ran fell to the ground, his face pale and his fingertips trembled. The man who had always been greedy for life and fear of death was ready to die. Seeing a zombie climbed up, he dug out the crystal core with a dagger, and didn't even bother to wipe the blood on his brain. , clutching the crystal core tightly, trying to restore his abilities.

Huaxia,

Huaxia…

This nation has been standing for thousands of years. If everyone is selfish, if everyone fights and plunders, this nation will not continue to this day. The torrent of history of 5,000 years, spanning life and death, spanning time, is caused by countless Close-knit hearts piled up.

I don't know when the light rain started to fall in the sky, and it fell on my face and it was cold and cold, like tears sliding down my face. It was found that a full one-third of the zombies suddenly turned around and started to attack the same kind.

Are zombies human

Or God can't bear to watch it

The exhausted crowd regained their strength, and took this opportunity to start a new round of fighting. They thanked God, but Pei Ran was chanting Qu Yan's name.

He was at the top of the city wall, but he couldn't see farther, but he knew that Qu Yan must be by his side, or the crowd of people below, or the empty central square in the distance, the wind and rain were noisy, the other party must be there Standing somewhere, watching me silently.

There is also a high-level spiritual system in the zombie group. Two powerful spiritual forces collide with each other in the air, like a dragon fighting endlessly into the sea, causing countless huge waves, and the people around are affected, dizzy and tinnitus, and the zombies do not know. Who should listen to control, the chaos is like a pot of ants, and some can't even bear the control of excessive mental power, and they are directly blown into a piece of flesh and blood.

Pei Ran had a splitting headache and even had difficulty standing. He struggled to find Qu Yan's figure in the crowd, but found nothing because of the cluttered scene. As time passed by, the zombie king seemed to have the upper hand. Continue to control the corpse tide to move forward, but is often forced back by an invisible force.

A cold mechanical voice sounded in Pei Ran's mind.

【Ding! An unknown dangerous force is detected, and the protection program is automatically turned on]

【Ding! The interstellar executive sent a message, this interface has been approved, and the system 008 is allowed to unbind from the host, ready to be placed on the space station at any time]

A ball of blue light finally floated out of Pei Ran's body slowly, and under his gaze, it was level with his sight.

【Ding! The extraction program starts, please prepare the host,

Start the self-test procedure,

Self-check completed.

unbundling,

20%

50%

100%

The removal is successful, this service has ended successfully, my dear host, congratulations on passing the interstellar audit officer standard and successfully embarking on the road of self-reliance and self-improvement]

Pei Ran's face was covered in blood, and his amber pupils reflected this small ball of blue light. He nodded lightly and smiled weakly: "It's good."

Pei Ran said, "Goodbye..."

【goodbye】

The system flew away silently, over the high city wall, overlooking the corpses beneath it, the land underfoot stretched hundreds of millions of hectares, the mountains and rivers were continuous, and the rivers were beautiful, it should not look like this.

It feels a little sad.

The system has never seen this tragic scene before. The mountains of corpses are piled up and bloody drifting. Every time it leaves, it is happy. This world is firmly shrouded, but those who are struggling to survive in the cracks will still pour their blood into the sky to dispel the haze.

The ball of light stopped in mid-air, and did not move for a long time. After a while, a pair of small translucent wings appeared behind it, flapping its edges and fanning, and the light blue light slowly fell, forming a translucent barrier. Keep those zombies out.

【warn! warn! Energy leak! System 008, please close the energy hatch, obey the call of the interstellar executive, and return to the space station in time! 】

The translucent barrier slowly moved forward, driving away the zombies.

【warn! warn! Not enough energy! Not enough energy! 】

[Sensing function is forced to be turned off]

[The interstellar executive sent a message, the past interface points of No. 008 system are cleared, please return to the space station quickly]

The blue ball of light turned a deaf ear, continued to flap its wings, and flew over every corner of the land, light-colored light poured down, and countless green grasses silently emerged from the muddy ground, and then quickly pulled out the buds and bloomed. Light blue flowers and quickly spread to other places.

Those zombies seemed to have seen their natural enemies. As the flowers spread wildly, they kept retreating. The people on the city wall stared blankly at this miraculous scene. After a long time, they whispered with red eyes: "We won..."

"we won… "

There was no excitement, no excitement, only a low, repressed cry.

The body of the blue ball of light gradually became lighter, it seemed to be unable to fly, its wings fluttered weakly a few times, and finally fell on the grass, quietly dissipating into the air as little streamers.

Pei Ran's eyes were red, he turned around, and saw a familiar thin figure under the city wall, his vision finally began to blur uncontrollably.

They should have met long ago.

While the thin Qu Yan was curled up in the cold corner of the floor, eager to read, Pei Ran stepped into the school gate with a schoolbag on his tender shoulders, and met again under the same blue sea and blue sky...

In just a few short steps, it seemed that he had crossed countless lives and deaths. Pei Ran hugged Qu Yan into his arms fiercely, and scorching tears mixed with cold raindrops fell on his shoulders.

Qu Yan seemed to be very tired, his face pale and frightening, the moment Pei Ran hugged him, his body collapsed weakly, and a weak breath could disappear into nothingness.

The haze in the sky above his head dissipated, the blue was like washing, the flowers under his feet were blooming and fragrant, and Pei Ran closed his eyes, like in countless nights before, caressing Qu Yan's back with his long white and slender hands, and said in a low voice, "I was standing on top of it just now. At that time, I suddenly found that there are still many things that I haven't had time to do..."

"I haven't said 'I love you' to you, I haven't had time to be nice to you, nicer..."

Qu Yan was so tired that he couldn't open his eyes, he raised his fingertips with difficulty, and tapped Pei Ran's back lightly, which was a response.

I love you too…

——

Historically, this period is called the end of the century.

People once again survived this disaster, spent nearly a hundred years recuperating, and successfully extracted serum from an unnamed blue flower to wipe out the zombie virus.

China, China.

Once again, this nation survived tenaciously in the struggle. Later, as time passed, the original base collapsed with a bang, and the economy developed rapidly. There is only one towering martyr's stone monument, standing on this land for a long time.

There is no name engraved on it, but everyone's name is also engraved.

They will cherish the world more.

They will be more united.

They will remember the dead martyrs.

They will maintain the present peace.

They will remember the lives lost, the blood shed by their ancestors, and the land under their feet.
