Chapter 186

XNUM X Year X NUM X Month.

There is still some time before the Spring Festival, the weather is still cold, and the sun is rarely seen.

More than a dozen survivors ran forward, holding crossbows and short knives in their hands, looking very tired and embarrassed.

The only sound in the crowd was the sound of their breathing as they ran, which was very rapid.

This is a wasteland, extending from Shanhe Town to the national road, located in the north.

rumbling...

Dull roars and commotion came from afar.

No one talked, and no one dared to stop. They were wearing heavy cotton clothes, which would affect their speed a little bit, and their physical exertion was greater than usual.
Because of tension.

Behind them, the mud and yellow dust are rolling in,

It's a group of corpses!
Countless groups of corpses marched towards the south densely, like a march, but they did not remain silent, full of frightening roars and howls.

These dozen or so people were chased ahead, like mice being chased by a cat, fleeing in a panic and exhausted.

The leader was a middle-aged man in his 40s, with a square face, a small back, and a few black hairs scattered to his forehead due to the vibration caused by running.

Unshaven, but not sloppy, in peaceful times, he should be a very handsome and calm uncle.

Wearing a thick cotton coat, in addition to the standard Ranger regiment equipment, there is a pistol.

But obviously, pistols have no advantage in this situation.

The uncle is no longer calm, he is now panicking like everyone else.

The corpses are like a flood, non-stop.

If they stop, they will die.

It has been a day and a night without stopping, only dare to stop to drink some water and eat a little dry food when there is a distance from the corpses.

If you eat a little more food, you will feel pain in the appendix of the stomach.

Because a young man didn't pay attention to this before, they were thrown out of the team by them. He continued to run because of the severe pain in his appendix. He couldn't catch his breath on the spot and passed out.

There is no way to take it away.

There is no way.

The uncle ordered him to be left there on the spot, and then moved on with the people.

It's a pity that this one person can't slow down the march of the corpses, and they become more hungry and thirsty.

While running, the uncle looked back, and saw billows of yellow dust in the distance, which was a dusty environment formed by too many people gathered together.

The hordes of corpses hidden in the sand and dust could not be seen.

But the roar could be faintly heard, even a little deafening.

"stop!"

The leader of the first action team of the ranger group named Ma Kui quickly shouted: "Replenish the water source on the spot and eat something."

Hearing this, more than a dozen people in the team opened the few remaining kettles one after another and took a few sips.

Those with poorer physiques have already run out of water in the kettle, and can only stare at other people helplessly. Their lips are chapped, bleeding, and coagulation. This has been repeated several times, and even their lips are numb when they speak It hurts like hell.

Several young people who did not drink water bent over, put their hands on their knees, and panted heavily.

"Team... captain... still running... still running?"

Ma Kui took a sip of water and handed the water bottle to them: "I can only run, we are not far from the national highway, and it is estimated that we will arrive this afternoon."

"I... I really... really can't hold on..."

"If you can't hold it, you have to hold it."

Ma Kui patted his shoulder, squeezed it hard, turned around and glanced at the others: "You forgot what happened to Xiao Li?"

When everyone thought about it, they immediately felt chills in their hearts.

Had to give him up because of his appendicitis attack.

"It's the same for you here, including me. If someone falls behind, we won't come to rescue you. You can only save yourself. I am a person in my 40s, and I didn't say it was hard. What are you young people afraid of?"

As he spoke, he raised his head and watched the corpses behind him vigilantly.

The sky was full of dust, and all that could be seen were the hundreds of zombies on their heads, chasing and killing them along the horizon.

"Captain, I see."

The young people all took a sip of the captain's water sparingly, and then handed the water bottle back to him.

Then they all took out the dry food they carried, mostly black bread and compressed biscuits, and they only dared to eat two or three bites, not too much.

"set off!"

Ma Kui glanced behind again, but the fear in his heart did not subside.

But fortunately, it is not far from the national highway.

They ran for a day and a night, and no one could bear it.

Even though they are an action team, those who can be the best players here can't stand this kind of escape...

The team started running again, not very fast, but as long as they could be faster than the zombies, they would not be able to catch up.

Ma Kui also thought about whether to make a detour and let the group of corpses pass, but he tried twice and failed each time.

There is no other reason.

There are too many corpses. There are not tens of thousands of zombies who can't play this kind of battle.

Want to take a detour?

It is estimated that he was overtaken by the corpses before he successfully circled out.

Moreover, they are faster than ordinary zombies. Although not much faster, this is a decisive advantage.

The only thing to do is run forward.

Mac Kui adopted the strategy of taking a short break with a little distance, and also taught the team members a more appropriate marathon breathing method, so that they could maintain their physical strength and not be exhausted.

The destination is Hedong Province. As long as it is brought into the city, such a small target will soon break free from the corpses.

Moreover, there are already many zombies in the city, and the complex terrain and those high-rise buildings can absorb the walking strength of the corpses.

silence.

There was silence in the team.

Everyone was running desperately, but no one dared to speak.

There is fear in everyone's heart.I am afraid that I will be exhausted and fall behind.

Those with a more stable heart are thinking of various ways to save energy and keep up with the team. From the running posture, whether it is the forefoot or the heel of the foot, it will have an impact.

If you run with your heels, your lower back will be very painful after a long time, because the heels have no cushioning force, and the vibration will be transmitted to the lumbar spine through the bones.

The forefoot has a cushioning force, which can save a lot of energy.

Human limits are developed in this way.

At this moment, the first team of the ranger group is also facing such a test.

It has been more than a month since they traveled at the end of last year. Their task is to investigate the environment and power distribution of the surrounding cities, not to search.

So can travel light.

At the same time, they also inquired about the situation of 66 Steel City in Ninghai and the Dahualong Alliance in Dijing.

If the ranger group can join hands with them to trade and communicate with each other in these cities in the north, then the power of mankind will be even greater.

And Ma Kui also brought back some benefits for the team. First of all, several branches of 66 Steel City accepted them and introduced some trade proposals.
