The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 247 South of Tongchang
In Shuigou Village, the sun is rising.

At this time, Meng Hai slept until the sun was up for the first time in more than half a year, allowing himself to be "presumptuous".

Half a year ago, when the zombies broke out, he led people all the way to flee for his life. He wanted to sleep with his eyes open, and he couldn't even talk about a good rest.

Later, when he came to Shuigou Village, he was not in the mood to sleep in because of the threat of zombies outside the village.

When I went to Yuanyang City, I had to work hard every day, and I had no chance to sleep late.

"Brother Meng, are you still awake?"

Hearing Ma Shan's voice outside, Meng Hai sat up from the bed, and immediately shouted outside: "Get up!"

"Are you all ready?"

Ma Shan outside immediately said: "It's already ready, I came to look for you after you didn't come for a long time!"

Pushing open the door, Meng Hai looked at Ma Shan outside, and said with a smile, "I overslept!"

At this moment, Meng Hai had also packed up, and after walking out the door, listening to Ma Shan's complaints, the two walked all the way to the entrance of the village.

Knowing that the two of them were leaving, almost everyone in the village came to see them off, and everyone admired them very much.

"Brother Meng, take care all the way, everyone is waiting for you to come back!"

Several clan elders showed concern, but in fact they hoped that Meng Hai would stay. Such capable young people are the hope of the village.

Meng Hai said with a smile: "Clan elder, don't worry!"

"Brother Meng, you are truly benevolent. Not only have you found a way out for our village, but you have also found a way out for others..."

"In this world, I'm afraid no one is more benevolent than you!"

The words of several clan elders were agreed by everyone.

The good news brought back by Meng Hai not only gave hope to the villagers, but also benefited the nearby villages. Such a great personality is indeed worthy of admiration.

Of course, there are always exceptions, such as Zhang Yang standing in the crowd and laughing dryly.

A person who he thought was dead, was supported by everyone just one day after he came back, which was better than Zhang Yang's painstaking efforts for more than a month, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

This kind of discomfort made him ashamed, ashamed that he was actually a narrow-minded "little person", and he felt even more angry when he felt this.

In order to conceal his petty thoughts, Zhang Yang stepped forward and said, "Brother Meng, be careful all the way!"

Meng Hai nodded, and after saying goodbye to everyone present, he turned around with Ma Shan and walked straight out of the village.

Apart from the village, the two disappeared from everyone's sight along the path.

"Brother Meng, Zhang Yang is too mean. I went to him last night and asked him to go with us, but he beat around the bush and rejected him!"

"What are you talking about collecting food, helping so-and-so's family, and patrolling the village... It seems that you can't do without his village!"

Hearing Ma Shan's complaint, Meng Hai said calmly, "Stop muttering, everyone has his own ambition!"

Being able to live from the zombie outbreak to the present, Meng Hai's head is very flexible, and he naturally senses the alienation from Zhang Yang.

But he didn't take it too seriously. After all, he hadn't seen her for a while, so it's normal for him to be a little unfamiliar.

"He is... I think he is afraid of death!" Ma Shan couldn't help complaining.

Meng Hai couldn't help laughing, and said, "Who in this world is not afraid of death?"

The two of them said this and that, and quickly sneaked into the mountains and forests. They encountered many zombies along the way, but they all quietly avoided them.

Back then, they were able to escape with dozens of people, but now the two of them have smaller targets, and the chance of being discovered by zombies is extremely low.

In the process of fleeing before, they encountered many villages, so now they are not looking for it aimlessly.

The two of them sneaked for about twenty miles, and then they appeared outside a village.

There used to be more than a hundred of these people, but now none of them have been seen.

Squatting on the tree, looking at the zombies wandering inside, Ma Shan had an ugly expression on his face, and said, "I'm afraid they are all dead!"

Meng Hai nodded, they brought hope, but unfortunately the people in this village couldn't receive it.

Encountering this situation in the first village I have to say is a setback for the two of Meng Hai.

Taking a last look at the village, Meng Hai said in a deep voice, "Let's go, go to the next place!"

Then the two of them rushed to the next place, which was about 20 miles away from here. At that time, they even took the initiative to take in Meng Hai and his party.

After another thrilling trek, after a full hour, they appeared in a new village.

When he saw the cooking smoke in the village, Meng Hai's heart sank, which proved that there were living people in the village.

Observing from a distance, this village took advantage of the favorable geographical conditions to isolate all the zombies at the periphery through the river and the fence.

The two of Meng Hai couldn't speak to the villagers directly, as that would directly recruit the zombies, so they had to find a way to enter the village.

Observing the surrounding environment, Meng Hai said slowly: "Let's approach slowly from the tree, and slip down the tree at the front, then jump directly into the river and go ashore!"

"Okay... just do it!" Ma Shan immediately agreed.

Next, the two of them seemed to be transformed into monkeys, jumping back and forth on the tree, and came to a tree three feet away from the river.

The zombies closest to them were about three feet long, so they had to go down the river as fast as possible, otherwise they would be in danger.

"Are you ready?"

"Three...two...one jump!"

As soon as Meng Hai's words fell, the two of them jumped off the tree directly, and the commotion attracted the attention of the zombies.

"Ouch..."

When the zombies turned their heads, Meng Hai and the two let go of their feet and rushed towards the river at the fastest speed.

At this moment, the zombies also frantically chased after them, but they still allowed Meng Hai to jump into the river safely.

But the zombies chased too fast, and the few near the river bank were directly squeezed into the river by the later ones.

The two of Meng Hai had to swim farther to avoid putting themselves in danger.

The big commotion here was easily discovered by the sentinels in the village, so the whole village was immediately on guard.

Meng Hai and the two climbed up to the opposite bank, and the zombie who had been squeezed into the water just now hiccupped after a while, and the corpse floated directly on the water.

After they got up, they walked towards the village. On the "sentinel tower" at the entrance of the village, there were already more than a dozen people holding weapons, all of them were looking at Meng Hai and the two of them.

"Where are you from?"

"We are ordered by Prince Yong's Mansion to come from Yuanyang to investigate the living people in the counties of Tongchang!" Meng Hai replied loudly.

At first they thought it was two fleeing for their lives, but they turned out to be people from the government, which surprised everyone on the sentry tower.

"Are you from the government? There is still a government now?"

"There are not only the government, but also a powerful army, and they will come to rescue you soon!"

Hearing that the government would come to rescue him, all the people in the village cheered. They had been waiting for death for half a year, so they were naturally happy when hope came.

"Really? You didn't lie to us?"

It has to be said that being able to be a talker in troubled times is more cautious than others.

Ma Shan was immediately unhappy and said, "What are you doing lying to you? At most half a month, the soldiers of the palace will take you into the county town, where you can eat and drink and be safe!"
