After a night of extreme cold, the temperature rose sharply after the sun came out the next day. The snow on the ground began to melt rapidly, and the melted water on the eaves also dripped down, and the chilly air was filled with humidity.
Students in both classes sleep until they wake up naturally, class 2 wakes up earlier, and class 1 sleeps until noon. I wonder if it has something to do with the compactness of their sleeping positions.
On a rare and calm afternoon, Lin Dilei and Zhou Yili cooked a few good dishes, and packed some of each dish to send upstairs, and the eight of them gathered together to have a peaceful meal. Of course, courtesy is reciprocated, and they who gave away the delicacies also took back a plate of kimchi cakes.
Evening came quietly in such comfort.
Eight well-armed young men stood in the center of the back kitchen on the first floor, all wearing masks and goggles without exception. Three of them were over 180, and one was even close to 190. Just the fact that these few people went there already made people feel that the future of this campaign was bright.
Song Fei always believed that Qi Yan was a well-proportioned, healthy and sunny type, but with Zhao He as a backdrop, the former immediately looked thinner. Even Wu Zhou, who was about the same height, looked stronger than Qi Yan. Maybe it's because of sports practice, so both of them have a sense of strength different from ordinary students, both in appearance and in real muscle state.
This trip sent four boys from each of the two classes, Class 1 consisted of Song Fei, Qi Yan, Zhou Lv and Qiao Siqi, and Class 2 consisted of Zhao He, Wu Zhou, Feng Qibai and He Zhiwen. This is also the composition of the team they will go to Gewulou in the future, otherwise the so-called running-in battle will be meaningless.
The reason why all the members were not mobilized was that the goal of a team of fourteen people was too big, which was not conducive to hidden operations; second, no one could guarantee success in going to Gewulou. The third is that the cafeteria is an important survival base. Even if they successfully find the radio and clarify the direction of self-rescue, they are nothing more than sticking to it and breaking through. The food and detailed planning, these need to return to the cafeteria for a long-term plan. So they not only have to keep people to guard the cafeteria, but also can't keep all those who are weak in combat. To be precise, mind and force are indispensable, both to prevent natural disasters and man-made disasters.
"Ready?" Song Fei walked to the window and asked his comrades back.
The friends in class 2 have finished exploring the masks and goggles, and expressed their views on why class 1 always has weird props. Now that the discussion is over, and the mood is calm, they all say in unison: "En."
Song Fei looked at the students in his class.
Qi Yan nodded.
Zhou Lv shook the sushi gun, raised the corners of his mouth, and the cold light reflected from the blade flashed across his confident face.
Qiao Siqi's eyes were also dazzled by the knife light, and he blinked subconsciously. His originally indignant eyes could no longer be seen, but the accusation was still full of anger: "I'm not Ready!"
Song Fei raised his eyebrows, Qi Yan and Zhou Lv folded their arms and waited for their teammates' reasons.
Qiao Siqi spread his hands vigorously: "Why me?"
Song Fei: "..."
Qi Yan: "..."
Zhou Lu: "Speak human words!"
"Why me?" This is the case, if you don't want to drag foreign language, you don't want to drag, Qiao is very knowledgeable about current affairs, "Wang Qingyuan wants to go, you don't let me, I don't want to go, you have to pull me, you Why do you love me so much..."
Qiao's sadness is sincere, and his resistance has penetrated into every nucleus.
Song Fei sighed: "Let's not talk about it, the cafeteria has to keep a few who can fight, are you better than Luo Geng or Wang Qingyuan?"
"Then I'm better than Li Jingyu!"
"But you lost the lottery." Speaking of this, Song Fei was ashamed. In front of Class 2, Qiao and Li were drawing lots for who could stay in the cafeteria. What a shame for Wusheng 1!
Qi Yan patted him on the shoulder: "Luck is also a kind of strength."
"And don't you always show that you are not afraid of being bitten by wearing thick clothes?" Zhou Yi added a knife, "Such unique equipment is born to face zombies."
Qiao Siqi grabbed the waistband of his trousers with both hands without hesitation, with a gesture of taking it off to the end: "I can take off the equipment now!"
Zhou was dumbfounded, defeated by his shamelessness.
Song Fei walked over with great interest, staring intently at his lower body: "Take it off, we will help you look at it."
Joskey: "..."
The green hills outside the mountains, the buildings outside the buildings, are shamelessly defeated by the wretched stream.
"My dream is to guard the cafeteria—"
Luo, Lin, Wang, and Li: "We will do it for you!"
Watching Qiao Siqi, who was loveless in life, being sent out of the window by his friends, the students in class 2 looked at each other and felt the same emotion in each other's hearts—this is really a warm group full of cohesion.
In the light of night, eight figures sneaked out of the back kitchen window on the first floor. They first looked around, and then moved forward quickly and quietly. In the blink of an eye, they were already hidden in the depths of the night. The only thing that proves that they have appeared is the footprints left on the green belt soil softened by the melted snow, deep and shallow, all the way forward.
"Is that the trees?"
Zhao He followed behind Class 1 with three classmates. This is a pre-determined tactic. Squad 1 leads the way and Squad 2 follows. After all, the former has already had a successful experience.
At this time, they could already see the outline of the color-steel house at the delivery point, as well as the blurred figures of the tall and tall trees beside the green belt in front of it.
"En." It was Qi Yan who answered him, trying to keep his voice as low as possible and the content as short as possible.
Zhao He didn't dare to speak loudly, but he was tall and his vision was clearer, so he couldn't help muttering now: "It's too short."
What Zhao He said was from the bottom of his heart—compared to the tall broad-leaved trees that can be seen everywhere in the campus, these few trees are really weak.
The students in Class 1 expressed their understanding. As fighters who have climbed trees both here and on the boulevard, they couldn't be more deeply aware of the differences between the two sides. However, things have to be looked at dialectically. The big tree is safe, but the trunk is high, and it is difficult to climb. Although the small tree is short and weak, it is easy to climb up, and it is easier to lure and kill the enemy. To the point of being unbearable.
"You can give advice to the logistics department." Qi classmate considerately provided a voice channel.
Zhao Hebai glanced at the back of his head: "I will, thank you."
"It's good to be cold, it's clean." Feng Qibai, who had been holding the carving knife tightly to be alert to his surroundings, said softly. Rather than wanting to chat, it was better to find a way to relieve his tense nerves. His strings were about to break along the way, and he would be mad if he didn't talk.
Qiao Siqi was also extremely nervous, but he couldn't agree with Feng Qibai's point of view: "The temperature has risen today, which is similar to when we just ran out of the dormitory. Why is it cold?"
"Then why are there not even half a zombie along the way?"
"This way, there were not many zombies when we came last time... What's the matter, are you still looking forward to meeting you?"
"I found you talking..."
swish swish.
The bickering stopped abruptly.
The eight people were walking close to the side of the road with their waists bent, and the sound came from the bushes in the green belt on the other side of the road. It seemed that someone was pulling the branches of the bushes, and the thick and short branches made an unbearable sound.
swish swish.
The sound became more and more intense, as if something was about to rush out of it in the next second!
The eight people suffocated for breath, and they didn't dare to act rashly anymore, they could only turn their stiff necks, you look at me, I look at you—
"What should I do?" Song Fei almost didn't dare to say these words, only the breath was barely audible.
"Run." Qiao Siqi didn't even think about it.
Zhao He shook his head resolutely: "Sooner or later, I will fight. If I can escape this time, what about next time?"
Wu Zhou agreed: "Damn it, you won't be afraid after you're done."
As soon as the voice fell, a head poked out from the bushes.
It was a very fair face, no blood or murderous intent could be seen, after poking out his head, he only looked around slowly, with a natural and serene expression.
The little friends also fell into confusion, unable to determine whether it was him or it for a while.
Song Fei swallowed, waved his hand tentatively, and called softly, "Hi."
Hearing the sound, the head paused, then slowly raised.
The moment he saw the group of people, Serenity was savagely torn apart, his head suddenly went berserk, and he rushed out with all his might. However, the bushes are dense, and the body is stuck, but it will not be able to get out for a while.
Zhao He has never been a character who just sits and waits for death, and when he sees the situation, he will immediately rush over with the army spear borrowed from Luo Geng!
"No." Qi Yan suddenly stopped him, "There is a problem!"
Zhao He raised his eyebrows: "Are you afraid that I won't be able to defeat it one-on-one?"
Qi Yan didn't answer, and kept his hands in a blocking posture, but his eyes were focused on the bushes.
Zhao He was puzzled and raised his eyes to look.
Swish, swish, swish.
The bushes continued to stir, and just as the white zombie had already freed its shoulders, several heads popped out of the nearby bushes!
one two three four five six seven.
In addition, this one at the beginning is not alone at all, he is the goddamn Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea!
Before the friends could react, Zhao He had already broken away from Qi Yan, rushed over and stabbed the zombie that had half of its body squeezed out in the head.
Stabbed, blood spattered.
The fierce and neat movements are like a brave general in the Warring States Period.
Not to be outdone, Wu Zhou who rushed over later also raised his knife at the other end, and quickly dropped one.
So the two students were like whack-a-mole, stabbing one after the other, and were stuck in the bushes with the zombies on their backs, and their movements were limited, but they actually managed to meet up.
The friends of Wusheng Class 1 were stunned, not only because of the high efficiency of these two people, but also because of the desperateness of these two people. You must know that they have always been running away if they can, and they can't escape, no matter how hard they are, this kind of style of doing things is too rough!
The friends from Class 2 of Wusheng thought it was okay, anyway, they broke out from the dormitory, and they walked all the way through hacking and killing.
"It's settled," Zhao He turned around, and raised his chin at his comrades rather shyly, "Let's not talk about eight, the next eighteen will not be opponents."
I thought that the reactions of the friends were nothing more than likes and complaints, but what caught Zhao He's eyes were six terrified faces.
"What kind of expression do you guys have?" Zhao Hejiu, "Don't worry, I only treat my enemies like this, I always treat my comrades like spring..."
Wu Zhou beside him suddenly touched his shoulder, interrupting his statement of friendship.
"Why?" Zhao He was a little unhappy.
Wu Zhou didn't know whether to say congratulations: "You want it, here it is."
Zhao He looked back in doubt, and saw that in the green belt surrounded by bushes, to be precise, behind the row of bushes where the zombie corpses were stuck, under a big pine tree still covered with a little snow, six people had stood up at some point. Seven figures, and more figures stood up one after another, and it was about to form a bustling situation of "crowded".
Isn't it here? Let alone eighteen now, there are probably twenty-eight!
Zhao He's scalp was numb and his throat was dry: "Actually, I'm just talking casually, you don't have to be so cooperative..."
The zombies didn't listen to his explanation, the first few who stood up quickly locked on to the target, and rushed towards this side frantically! And different from those who wanted to drill out from the bushes, perhaps they had already entered the upright running mode. After encountering the bushes, two of them rushed out with forward inertia, and a tall man stepped out directly!
"What are you looking at, run—" Qiao Siqi's reminder pierced the night sky.
The little friends just woke up from a dream, they didn't expect so many zombies to appear in a short time, the land just now seemed to be empty!
Qiao Siqi took the lead with his swift legs. His running endurance was not enough, and his explosive power was absolutely astonishing. It was as if a rocket was attached to his buttocks, and he flew far away in the blink of an eye.
Song Fei, Qi Yan, and Zhou Lv followed closely behind. Unexpectedly, they were overtaken by Wu Zhou and Zhao He within a few steps, leaving only Feng Qibai and He Zhiwen behind. This is miserable.
Zhao He struggled while running: "What the hell are you doing hiding here!"
Qiao Siqi, who didn't dare to rush out of the main group, locked on behind Student Zhao: "Let's start the class meeting."
"Go on your stomach?!"
"That's not a class meeting, it's a party."
"Fuck you, you're absolutely hiding there and waiting for us to take the bait!"
"Speaking of this, I'm going to get angry. If you don't go stab those eight, what will happen next!"
"Why didn't you stop me when I stabbed, now it's an afterthought!"
"You're so red-eyed, what if you stab me again!"
"Didn't you say that the zombies go crazy when they smell it? I stabbed them for a long time before they stood up. This is a trap!"
"You've put Six God on them and they still smell farts!"
"I've always wanted to add an S after plural numbers!"
"You, a sports student, don't worry about these things!"
"The thing that annoys you guys who take one bite at a time is sports students. I also passed the exam. Not only do I know how to add S, but I also know the past tense, the past continuous tense, the present perfect tense..."
Bang!
Boom!
"Fuck!"
"Oh!"
— As a result of beeping while running, Zhao He hit a tree, and Qiao Siqi bumped into Zhao He.
The six partners who arrived later ignored the two chattering, and dispersed tacitly, climbing trees!
Qiao Siqi was a little bit lighter than Zhao He. After all, he was resting on his body. After a few seconds, he quickly got up and ran under the Song Fei tree in one breath. He opened his arms and said, "Hug."
Song Fei almost wanted to throw the shoe away.
But he quickly took out the rope from his backpack and pulled Johns up.
Zhao He, who stood up from the other side, looked contemptuous when he saw this, cut a tree, picked an empty tree, and climbed up with a few hands and feet.
He Zhiwen and Feng Qibai ran almost out of breath, how could they still have the strength to climb the tree at the moment, seeing that each of their comrades in arms was more dexterous than monkeys, it was sad - they and this group of people really went to the same university ! ! !
Twenty or so zombies were approaching behind them, and the one running in the front could even see clearly what clothes they were wearing!
Qi Yan and Zhou threw down the rope at the same time, shouting: "Come up!"
Song Fei also wanted to help, but he already had Qiao Siqi here, and no matter how many people there were, he was afraid that the tree would not be able to support him.
The two of them didn't have any time to hesitate, they split into two and grabbed the rope almost at the same time. Feng Qibai's movements were a little nimbler than He Zhiwen's. Grasping the rope and kicking off the tree trunk, his hands could use the force of the pedals to fall up little by little. He Zhiwen couldn't do it. After trying several times, he couldn't lift his legs at all, let alone kick off the tree trunk.
Zhou Lv was about to die of anxiety, but his comrades were still struggling and wriggling like a loach on a fishhook. He couldn't let go, as soon as he let go, he fell straight down.
At the critical moment, Zhao He jumped down suddenly and ran quickly to He Zhiwen's tree, hugged He Zhiwen's legs and sent it up with force, and the top of He Zhiwen's head was directly higher than the lowest branch.
He Zhiwen was incapable of skill, but his brain was bright, and he immediately hugged the branch with both hands tightly.
Seeing that he was holding him firmly, Zhao He immediately let go of his arms, and He Zhiwen's chubby legs, which had been freed, immediately clumsily hooked on the tree branch.
"Go back to the tree!" Qi Yan suddenly shouted.
Zhao He didn't look back, he ran two steps forward and chose another tree, like a flying swallow in the sky, even the friends didn't see what he did, and he got on the tree.
But at this time, the zombie that made Qi Yan fearful just ran under the tree where Zhao He had previously lived.
So far, all eight people have climbed the tree safely.
The zombies also began to gather, and the final group number stabilized at twenty-six. Without exception, they all surrounded under the tree, some eagerly stretched out their hands to grab up, and some couldn't find a way and even started to gnaw the bark.
Looking up, the courier point was dark, and it was not clear whether there were zombies or how many there were.
"Can you not be so stupid?" The situation was temporarily stable, but Qiao Siqi was still afraid, and said to Zhao He angrily, "Learn from us Qi Yan, and do things in a safe manner. If you don't come up, you will be reckless."
Whether it was stabbing a zombie just now or climbing a tree now, besides being reckless, it was thrilling, which almost scared Qiao Siqi into cardiac arrest.
"I saved people by mistake?" Zhao He raised his eyebrows unhappily, "Besides, I didn't bother you, I stabbed zombies to death, and climbed trees, I also climbed up, don't you look at me? Steady, I think I can control the field quite well.”
Click.
Qiao Siqi swallowed his complaints, his hair was on the verge of standing up nervously, and asked timidly, "What's the sound?"
The friends looked at each other across the tree, not knowing why.
Finally, Zhao He bit the bullet and said: "It seems to be broken..."
Qiao Siqi was so nervous that he almost changed his tune: "What the hell!"
Zhao He: "Twigs."
click.
Before he finished speaking, the branch snapped. Zhao He jumped up and hugged the branch above him at the last moment, watching the branch that was under his feet fall into the crowd of zombies under the tree.
All the friends seemed to have experienced a narrow escape with Zhao He. In the cold night wind, they broke out in a cold sweat.
"Are you still charged?" Slapping people doesn't slap people in the face, but some people can't do without kicking in the face.
Zhao He wrapped his legs around the tree trunk with great difficulty, so that his slender body would no longer sway in the wind, and promised from the bottom of his heart: "I will never pretend to be aggressive anymore..."
Click.
Zhao He: "No, come again?!"
All comrades: "How much the fuck do you weigh—"
