End of the World

"This gas station is quite unique...!" Dafeng looked at the ruins, but there was no trace of the gas station.

"Let's go!" Wu Bin was helpless. The gas station had been blown up into the sky. Looking at the emerald green life sprouting on the edge of the pit, it was clear that the gas station had disappeared long ago.

The infantry fighting vehicle went around the pit and continued on its way. It had already traveled most of the way and soon arrived at Xiaoxi Town.

But this last stretch of road will be extremely difficult, as the national highway into the town is blocked by abandoned vehicles, including a number of heavy tractor trucks.

"Dafeng, get out of the car and deal with the zombies. Yuxin, you stay on guard in the car, I'll go get some oil!" Wu Bin made arrangements. Since they couldn't get in for the time being, they had to solve the current problem.

"Hey, leave it to me!" Dafeng patted his chest.

Wu Bin found a piece of plastic pipe, picked up the oil barrel and crowbar, and looked like he was stealing oil.

I found the truck's fuel tank. Maybe it was because the truck was a little old, so I pried open the tank and a smell of gasoline hit my nose.

This... Wu Bin was speechless. This truck turned out to be a gasoline truck. Seeing the rusty body, Wu Bin felt relieved. Some of the old trucks were gasoline trucks.

Close the gas cap and come back later to get some gasoline.

He pried open the fuel tank of another heavy truck and confirmed that it was diesel. He inserted a tube into the bottom of the tank, exhaled lightly, and inhaled into the tube, and the diesel was immediately sucked into his mouth.

"Ahem! Bah!"

Wu Bin immediately spat out the diesel in his mouth, quickly put the tube into the oil barrel, and used the siphon principle to extract the diesel from the fuel tank.

"Brother Bin, you are sucking oil like this!" Dafeng dealt with a few zombies and came over with a bottle of water.

"What else?" Wu Bin rinsed his mouth and spat out a few mouthfuls of water, diluting the diesel smell in his mouth a little.

"It's so magical, what's the principle?" Dafeng saw the diesel in the fuel tank coming out by itself.

"It's the siphon phenomenon, using the pressure of the liquid level difference from high to low. Anyway, I don't know how to explain it."

"Oh!" Dafeng seemed to understand, but he didn't know what the height difference pressure was, but he understood from high to low.

The efficiency of sucking oil in this way is very low. There is no other way. The fuel tank of the infantry fighting vehicle is not small. Wu Bin thought of the oil thieves before the end of the world. They are not likable, but their equipment is awesome. The gas pumps at gas stations can't compare with them. If possible, he can get a set of oil suction device like theirs. He can pay attention to it in the future.

After filling up the gas tank, Wu Bin felt relieved. The next question was how to get into the town. According to Dafeng, the road ahead was so congested that there was no end in sight.

"What should we do now?" Back in the car, Dafeng looked at the two of them, and Wu Bin and He Yuxin looked at each other.

"It seems a bit difficult!" He Yuxin studied the map. There was no other road, and there was a small road but it did not lead into the town.

"The road is made by people walking. When more people walk on it, it naturally becomes a road. Let's be pioneers!" After a while, Wu Bin said slowly, just to experience it first.

He Yuxin nodded. This kind of situation will be very common in the future. There won’t be sunny avenues everywhere. It will get worse over time. Traffic roads without anyone to manage will soon be buried in the green forest.

"Cuckoo!"

Dafeng touched his stomach awkwardly: "Sorry, the dinner bell rang!"

"Then let's eat something first!" Wu Bin then remembered that it was already late and the three of them hadn't eaten yet.

There was not much food on the infantry fighting vehicle. If they did not meet up with Qiao Xinghua in the town, the three of them would have to look for supplies.

Wu Bin ate the fried rice hastily and said to the two of them, "You guys continue eating, I'll get off the car to find some tools!"

If you want to be a pioneer, you must first have pioneering tools. Wu Bin gave up the car and set his sights on trucks, preferably engineering vehicles.

There was indeed a yellow engineering work vehicle among the group of vehicles. It was an electric repair vehicle and was not what Wu Bin needed.

There were many corpses that were about to turn into skeletons in the abandoned vehicles, and they still emitted a foul smell. Wu Bin couldn't help but sigh again when he saw the dead bodies. There was really death everywhere.

Wu Bin took some tools and returned to the infantry fighting vehicle.

"The car is full of disassembly tools for repairing cars. It would be best to find felling tools!" Wu Bin put down the tools, as they would be useful in the future.

"There are plenty of felling tools in lumberyards or furniture factories!" Dafeng seemed to understand what the pioneer meant.

"Logging tools are generally available in rural areas. There are two buildings not far behind us!" He Yuxin paid attention to both sides of the road while driving.

Wu Bin was surprised. He Yuxin had such strong observation and memory. No wonder she was a top student in the past. If it were him, he would definitely not pay so much attention to the roadside.

"You can go and have a look!" Wu Bin didn't mind wasting some time to search for a few axes.

The infantry fighting vehicle drove back for about a minute and arrived in front of two four-story buildings.

"It seems we are not the first group!" As the three of them entered the building, they saw several corpses on the ground, Wu Bin said as he stepped to the other side.

The items in the building were in a mess. Someone had searched it and probably took away everything useful.

"Forget it, let's go!" Wu Bin looked around and found it unlikely to find a hatchet, so he called the two of them.

The road into the town was blocked, so the three men abandoned the highway. Don't forget that their vehicle was an infantry fighting vehicle, and its off-road capability was absolutely ambiguous.

Wu Bin leaned his head out from the roof of the car and directed He Yuxin to drive. They had to be careful when driving in an open space outside the curb, otherwise it would be troublesome if the car got stuck.

The infantry fighting vehicle rumbled past the side of the highway, attracting some zombies on the road. There were not many of them, and they posed no threat to the infantry fighting vehicle. Instead, they were there to get killed, and were rolled under the wheels and either killed or injured.

After driving for a while, we encountered a small trouble. A row of trees appeared in the open space in front of us, and behind the trees there was a small stream about two or three meters wide and more than two meters deep. It was simply a natural anti-tank trench.

It is impossible to bypass the stream, so you can only try to cross it on the road.

The infantry fighting vehicle rushed onto the road and crushed the abandoned cars on the road under its wheels. It had to be done with caution, otherwise there was a risk of overturning.

I’ve only seen tanks crushing cars on TV before, but now come and experience flying on an infantry fighting vehicle!

The weight of an infantry fighting vehicle is distributed among the eight wheels. It cannot crush a car, but at most it can collapse the roof.

"Slowly, a little to the left!" Wu Bin directed the driving. Driving over a bunch of car roofs is no joke. It would be fun if you accidentally hit the empty wheel and got the chassis stuck.

After struggling for more than ten minutes, they finally crossed the stream. The infantry fighting vehicle couldn't wait to drive out of the traffic jam. A bad situation did not happen. He Yuxin broke out in a cold sweat.

He Yuxin was too focused and nervous just now, and when she calmed down, she felt a little dizzy. Wu Bin knew the pressure she was under, so he asked her to stop and rest for a while.

"How is it? Can you still hold on?" Knowing that He Yuxin still had injuries that had not healed, Wu Bin helped her wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.

"It's okay, Brother Bin, how is your injury?"

"Although it hurts a bit when I move, it's no big deal!" Wu Bin said with a smile.

"Well, we'd better go over there quickly and let Sister Yun change the medicine for you!" He Yuxin felt that she was fine, but Wu Bin was shot, so she was more worried.

Dafeng is really a fighting maniac. After a short rest, he went out with weapons to practice with the zombies. According to Dafeng, one less zombie means one more hope. He can contribute to the great cause of human rejuvenation.

He Yuxin smiled a little. Dafeng was really optimistic. Wu Bin was speechless. There were billions of zombies in the world. If they were evenly distributed among every survivor, the number would be huge. It would probably take a lifetime to kill them all.

Having said that, if everyone was like Dafeng and would not let go of zombies when they saw them, the number of zombies would definitely be much smaller. Unfortunately, most of them would flee everywhere and would rather kill their own kind than attack zombies.

Things went much more smoothly afterwards. The infantry fighting vehicles no longer encountered difficult-to-pass obstacles such as streams, and the traffic jam did not extend to Xiaoxi Town.

When the three men arrived outside Xiaoxi Town, it had already darkened. They did not meet Qiao Xinghua and others. Wu Bin tried to contact them but received no reply. Could it be that they had not arrived yet?

It was too late to go out and look for anyone, so we had to rest first. It was impossible to find a place to stay in such a hurry, so we had to spend the night in the infantry fighting vehicle.

Three people take turns on duty at night. The infantry fighting vehicle is equipped with night vision and aiming equipment, which makes it much more convenient. He Yuxin is on the first shift, Dafeng is the second, and Wu Bin is on duty in the second half of the night.

The suburbs are always quiet and dark at night, so dark that you can't see your hand in front of you. At this time, creatures that rely on hearing or smell begin to forage for food at night. A few night zombies passed by the infantry fighting vehicle and did not notice the three people in the vehicle. Of course, they are not considered living creatures.

Nothing happened that night, and the dawn shone on the earth again, but it could no longer illuminate the hearts of some people. Human beings were drifting further and further away from the original order and civilization.

In the morning, Wu Bin continued to contact Qiao Xinghua and others, but still received no response.

"If Qiao Xinghua and the others haven't arrived today, we'll be hungry tomorrow!" Wu Bin said to the two of them. All the supplies were in the RV.

"We need to prepare for a rainy day. I don't think it's a good idea to wait here today. We can go to the town first to find out the situation!" He Yuxin suggested. The three of them had walkie-talkies in their hands, and Qiao Xinghua and the others would definitely contact them when they arrived. It would be better to make preparations first. It would also be a good idea to search for more supplies.

"Sister-in-law is right, Qiao Xinghua might be even more unreliable than me!" Dafeng agreed, and criticized Qiao Xinghua at the same time. At least he had arrived before Qiao Xinghua!

He Yuxin's pretty face turned slightly red when Dafeng called her sister-in-law, but she didn't show any displeasure and it was obvious that she accepted the title.

"Okay! Let's stock up on some supplies first and wait for Qiao Xinghua to come and take them away!"

The infantry fighting vehicle started and drove towards the town. Wu Bin looked at the map, found some shops, and directed He Yuxin to move forward.

There were still many zombies on the streets of the town, and they all rushed towards the infantry fighting vehicle. Wu Bin saw many corpses on the streets and the driving passage seemed to have been cleared. He had a bad feeling.

Hundreds of zombies surrounded the infantry fighting vehicle. Normally, even on the streets of the town, the number of zombies would be far more than this. This place must have been cleared out by someone.

The further we went, the more obvious the signs of fighting became, the more corpses there were on the ground, and the shops on both sides had obviously been looted.
