Rebirth in the end of the world, hold the ex's thigh tightly
Chapter 48 Earthquake
Due to this delay, they finally set off again for nearly an hour. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon. During this time, scattered zombies appeared from the vicinity, which were all cleaned up.
The snowplow was still in the front clearing the roadblocks, Cheng Jing and Jiang Nian's car was second, followed by Li Kaiyun and his sons, and finally Huang Qian and her group.
Li Kaiyun was so moved by this arrangement that his eyes filled with tears.
We encountered several waves of zombies of varying sizes along the way, but they did not cause any trouble to the team, so we were able to move smoothly.
Before it was completely dark, they arrived at a well-viewed and empty square on the outskirts of the city.
It was Jiang Nian's request to sleep in the wilderness because they were worried about sudden earthquakes, so they chose to rest in open places along the way.
Tang Yi and Zhou Rongbin, who had no guard duties during the day, set up a tent and took turns to keep watch, alerting to the surrounding situation. They had no trouble killing time with the game console given by Jiang Nian.
The rest of the people who were not on guard slept in the car, ready to run away at the first sign of trouble.
Since leaving Qingyun City, they have successfully avoided several nighttime earthquake crises.
Although Jiang Nian did not directly participate in the battle, his planned itinerary and route decisions had already convinced the team members.
If it weren't for Jiang Nian, they would have been buried several times.
Everyone had dinner together. Since they all planned to build good relationships, Jiang Nian felt it necessary to be generous.
The teammates all knew what he meant and thought, and they all actively greeted the three members of the Li family.
Jiang Nian's style of doing things is straightforward:
If someone wants to be nice to you, they will be nice to you sincerely. If someone doesn’t want to pay attention to you, they won’t even give you a chance to get close to you.
After dinner, Xiaoya and Huang Qian took the initiative to chat with Li Shuhui. Li Kaiyun and Li Liang, father and son, took the initiative to say they would keep watch, but Cheng Jing refused:
"You just need to get enough rest and stay energetic and keep up with our pace during the day. Starting tomorrow, the rest time will be shortened and we will take turns being the driver. If you have any difficulties, please let me know."
Li Kaiyun nodded:
"Thank you very much. Xiaoliang and I can take turns driving during the day."
"Row."
Cheng Jing said this as he handed him a pack of cigarettes and then sat down next to him.
No one in their team smoked, but he stocked up a lot because Jiang Nian said that items like tobacco were hard currency in the base, so after the poisonous rain came, he went out and made a lot of money.
Seeing that they wanted to chat, Li Liang sensibly walked away and took the initiative to ask other members of the team if there was anything they could help with.
Li Kaiyun gratefully took the cigarette and smoked one on the spot, but there was no light. Just as he was about to ask, Cheng Jing flicked his fingers and lit it for him.
"call--"
Taking a deep breath, the stimulation of nicotine made him feel refreshed. Li Kaiyun squinted his eyes and smacked his lips a few times with pleasure.
Cheng Jing took the opportunity to ask:
"Uncle, have you ever been a soldier?"
"Correct."
Li Kaiyun smiled and looked sideways at him:
"You too."
It is a declarative sentence, which can be regarded as a kind of intuition and tacit understanding among soldiers.
Cheng Jing nodded:
"Yeah, I just left the team not long ago."
Li Kaiyun smoked a cigarette, looked at the others who were busy not far away and said:
"Your team is well-trained, with a high level of tacit understanding and trust. It doesn't look like a random combination."
"Except for my wife Jiang Nian and Xiaoya, we all worked for the security company before the apocalypse. After the apocalypse, we joined the Qingyun City Official Rescue Union."
Cheng Jing answered truthfully, revealed some information calmly, and briefly described the situation of the team.
Li Kaiyun understood after hearing this, flicked the ash off his cigarette and said:
"A group like yours will be popular no matter which base you go to, and you can get good resources."
It turned out to be his lover. He finally understood why Jiang Nian was the one who spoke.
Cheng Jing did not comment, but still said modestly:
"The official person in charge of Qingyun City did give us a letter of recommendation...but we only want a stable life with our family, otherwise we would not have chosen the South City base."
Li Kaiyun nodded:
"Too……"
"..."
The two chatted for a long time, and only got into their cars to rest late at night.
It was still very cold at night, so Jiang Nian gave Li Kaiyun and the other two two more blankets to keep them warm.
The night after that was peaceful.
In the next few days, we encountered many zombies, but we were able to deal with them all smoothly.
After collecting a lot of crystal cores of zombies with special abilities, Cheng Jing discussed it with Jiang Nian and then took the initiative to tell Li Kaiyun.
After all, if they act together, Li Kaiyun is not a careless person and he will find out sooner or later, so it is better to take the initiative to speak out.
However, to their surprise, the three Li family members also gave the crystal cores they obtained from splitting open the zombies' skulls to Cheng Jing.
In addition, because Li Liang and Li Shuhui had few opportunities to work, they took the initiative to take on the "logistics" work, and were responsible for cooking and cleaning during their breaks.
After all, Jiang Nian and Cheng Jing invited them to have dinner together the day after they joined. Since others were generous, they should also be sensible.
We traveled together like this for almost a week.
They were getting closer and closer to the base, and often encountered the base rescue team carrying survivors back and forth at various intersections.
This way, you will encounter fewer zombies.
We thought we could reach the base directly at this pace, but when we were about to drive across a cross-river bridge, an earthquake occurred. The bridge collapsed and several large cracks appeared on the ground.
Coincidentally, just ahead of them there was a rescue team driving a large green truck carrying thousands of survivors.
When the earthquake struck, the rescue team was preparing to go up the bridge. Although they noticed the abnormality in time and turned around, several trucks were unable to turn back and overturned, falling into the cracks and ruins.
Huang Qian was asked to take Xiaoya and Li Shuhui to stay and look after their car, while Cheng Jing took the others to provide support.
Although the base's rescue operation was swift, the earthquake came too suddenly and the scene was in chaos. Screams, cries, and scolding filled the air. Medical staff were limited and no one could be saved.
Even though there were many people with special abilities among the rescue team and the survivors, many people still died. Some of those who were rescued were dying and could not survive for long.
After the apocalypse, this section of the river dried up, and due to pollution, the area under the bridge has turned into a pool of black mud, gathering many zombies.
The collapsed bridge and ground subsidence did not bury them completely, but instead crawled up along the ruins.
Many people who are pinned by objects and unable to escape in time are bitten, scratched, or even eaten, so there is no need to rescue them.
This is still daytime, if it were night there would be no way to rescue them.
"Save us..."
"I don't want to die...save me..."
"Who will come and save us...?"
Beneath a long concrete slab lay a family of three: a middle-aged couple and a daughter in high school uniform.
Two zombies were crawling towards them from the left and right, and the extreme fear made them scream.
Just as the zombies' sharp nails were about to grab the woman's exposed arm, lightning, fire and ice cones fell from the sky and instantly destroyed the zombies around them.
Zhao Lei manipulated the metal into a chain to pull the stone slab open, and then rescued the family of three. Fortunately, they were only crushed and not injured.
"I can't walk anymore... carry me up..."
The girl was shaking like a sieve and couldn't stand steadily. She looked at Cheng Jing with tears in her eyes.
