Undead

Waking up early the next morning, Zhou Rong felt dizzy—the biochemical vehicle was gone.

He walked around the open space twice with the gun in his hand, raised his head to the sky and shouted angrily, "Si Xiaonan!"

"Si Xiaonan, get out of here, I'm not joking with you, hurry up!!"

The sound of the engine came from far to near, and the biochemical vehicle slowly came from the other side of the long street, and stopped in front of the furious Zhou Rong.Then the window was rolled down, milk powder, candies and dehydrated cakes were piled up on the driver's seat, Sinan was carrying a submachine gun and holding a jar of honey in one hand, his cheeks flushed slightly after eating.

Zhou Rong saw that his shoulder was stained with black and red rotting blood. It was obvious that he had just robbed the supermarket single-handedly, so he exploded on the spot: "Leaving the team without authorization! No discipline! Comrade Sinan, if you are an official team member, I will beat you! Say goodbye and don't think about the consequences?!"

Si Nan stared at him coldly.

"What are you looking at?! If you refuse to obey, give it to me..."

Zhou Rong was still waiting to scold, when suddenly Sinan threw two cigarettes over his head and face, then quickly raised the car window, stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the road.

"Hey! You bastard!" Zhou Rong was hit by two soft Chinas, jumping his feet and roaring behind the car.

Simon was seriously angry.

Zhou Rong finally finished his search for supplies, with two cigarettes in his arms, driving ahead with a dark face.The two cars drove out of city B from the expressway one after the other. They returned to the suburban industrial park before dark that evening.

Are we going our separate ways?

Zhou Rong slammed the steering wheel to catch up, and he was far behind Sinan.A few minutes later, the biochemical vehicle stopped at the back door of the factory area. Sinan jumped out of the vehicle with some food in his hand, and then jumped over the fence.

Zhou Rong asked Chuncao to come over to look at the car, and he followed quietly, took two steps to run up the wall, and then jumped onto the ginkgo tree behind the wall, looking down furtively.

Sinan walked straight ahead, following the desolate path towards the anhydrous ammonia treatment plant, surrounded by wild grass and surrounded by an abandoned truck garage.

A slender figure was squatting in the open space under the rear window of the garage. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned around and stepped forward in great surprise.

——It's Wu Xinyan.

Even at such a distance, I couldn't hear what they were saying.Zhou Rong looked at it for a long while, feeling rather annoyed, and let out a long breath.

What am I delusional about, he wondered to himself.

He's obviously a member of the Beta Rights Protection Association. It's good if he doesn't hate Alpha, what else can he expect?Besides, with his looks and skills, in this kind of apocalypse, there are probably many little girls who are willing to post it.

Zhou Rong's throat was a little sore, he jumped up the fence with his backhand hooked on the branch, and jumped out from the back door.

·

"Back?" Feng Wentai said in disbelief.

Men nodded.

Feng Wentai rushed out the door, almost trotting all the way down the stairs, and came to the front yard of the factory building.More than a dozen people had gathered in the open space, all of whom were survivors who escaped from T City with the special forces; the three Alpha bodyguards of the Feng family were also guarding there, blocking those people faintly, staring at the outside.

A military anti-riot armored vehicle was parked inside the barbed wire. Zhou Rong and the others were exhausted, carrying the wounded and unconscious Yan Hao and the bag containing Zhang Yingjie's body, and they were getting off the vehicle one after another.

Seeing their dirty clothes and mental state, Feng Wentai understood everything, and his heart sank.

However, when the captain surnamed Zhou turned his head, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his brows and eyes were full of jokes: "Brother Feng! Don't come here without any problems, is everything okay with our family?"

Without waiting for Feng Wentai to answer, he turned his head and told his subordinates: "The supplies are counted and put into the warehouse, and a registration is made. Yingjie's body will be placed first and wait for me to deal with it." Then he waved to the crowd and laughed loudly: "Doctor Zheng! It hurts a little, please take two people to move him up to have a look!"

Except for these special forces, the thirty-odd survivors were vaguely headed by Dr. Zheng, and immediately went forward to take Yan Hao's stretcher carefully after hearing what he said.

"Hey - I've only been away for a few days, it seems like a lifetime away!" Zhou Rong moved his stiff neck bones after driving for a long time, made a crisp click, first waved to the onlookers, and then patted Feng Wentai's shoulder with a smile: " The past few days have really worked hard, Brother Feng! I will give you a big credit!"

Clotted blood loses its pheromone smell after being exposed to the air for a period of time, just like a dead body loses its fingerprints after a few days.The overly strong Alpha pheromone in Zhou Rong's body had dissipated long ago, otherwise he would walk around like a long-legged androgen atomic bomb, Si Nan would never accept it.

But Feng Wentai didn't know.

He only felt that as soon as Zhou Rong came back, he immediately put on a stance of being the master of the house, which made his already disappointed mentality even more subtle.But he didn't want to show it. Hearing this, he said with a smile, "It's all good, it's all good. It's the responsibility. There's nothing hard or hard. Has Captain Zhou contacted Vice Minister Guo?"

Zhou Rong shook his head.

Feng Wentai's smile faded: "Then...we are..."

Zhou Rong hooked his shoulder: "Come on, let's go to the cafeteria and talk while walking."

"That's how things are," Zhou Rong shrugged 10 minutes later at the dining table in the cafeteria.

It was dinner time, and all the survivors were queuing up to get food, and there were only multigrain porridge and boiled potatoes in the window.Not far away, Feng Wentai's bodyguards were sitting at another small table, with guns on their backs. In front of them was rice with four stir-fries, both meat and vegetables, and opened two bottles of beer.

Zhou Rong didn't seem to see it:

"Next, we will leave the fertilizer factory. All the surviving people will take the CMB to the South China Sea headquarters. We have obtained the latest information on virus research, which is of vital significance to the development of vaccines..."

"One of your men died, and another was seriously injured?" Feng Wentai interrupted.

Zhou Rong said, "Yes."

"And a little brother who looks very...?"

"I lost it," Zhou Rong said succinctly.

"In other words, there are only four of you now."

"Yes."

Feng Wentai was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, he changed his tone, a little coldly: "Excuse me, Captain Zhou. We'd better stay in the fertilizer factory now, and don't act rashly. You send a positioning signal to the South China Sea headquarters and ask the helicopter to pick you up." .If the information you mentioned is really that important, the Central Committee will take the initiative to pick us up..."

"There is no 'center' anymore." Zhou Rong said calmly, "The positioning signal cannot be received. Before contacting Nanhai, it is doubtful whether the other party's headquarters has fallen."

"Then we should go to the northeast," Feng Wentai said immediately.

"My family has some territory in the Northeast, and there is also a grain processing factory. If the brothers raised in my hometown are still alive, they will form a considerable armed force. Moreover, the severe cold weather in the north will restrict the movement of zombies. It's safer in every way than going south to the densely populated coastal areas."

Feng Wentai obviously had plans long ago, and at this moment when he was speaking eloquently, he changed the subject:

"Captain Zhou and his brothers have been loyal to the country. It is respectable, but in this last world, people still have to think about themselves. If Captain Zhou is willing to bring his men to join us, Feng will never dare to neglect you and arrive in the northeast. In the end, I will make sure that everyone lives comfortably—it goes without saying that things like prosperity and wealth will not be worse in the last days, at least they will not be worse than before the last days, what do you think?"

Chuncao, Guo Weixiang, and Ding Shi registered their supplies and entered the cafeteria with their lunch boxes. From a distance, they saw Feng Wentai and Zhou Rong sitting opposite each other in the corner, and several bodyguards of the Feng family gathered around to drink with malicious intent.

Chuncao immediately took two steps forward, but saw Zhou Rong with his hands behind his back, shaking her.

"How should I put it?" Zhou Rong laughed: "As a special soldier, the country has cultivated it for so many years, and now is the time when we are most needed..."

Feng Wentai was impatient: "I understand the truth, but Captain Zhou has to think about his brothers. Two of you have already died. What can the country give them? Medals? Pensions? Even the entire B military region can Lost! The government may not even be able to take care of itself, can the country still issue pensions?"

"Boss Feng," Zhou Rong teased, "Yan Hao is not dead yet."

Feng Wentai choked up.

Zhou Rong watched his words and expressions, and coughed at the right time before his attack:

"Speaking of which, if we head north, what will happen to the house full of men, women and children?"

Feng Wentai looked around and saw that the people in the distance were queuing up for a meal. Many people shook the porridge in their bowls, and looked at the stir-fried beer of Feng's bodyguards, showing dissatisfied expressions.

"We don't have much in stock," he said in a low voice.

Zhou Rong stared at him quietly.

"If all these people bring them with them, I'm afraid they'll run out of food on the way. If it's too cold and the supplies can't be replenished, everyone will have to explain."

Feng Wentai considered for a moment, and finally spoke again: "From my humble opinion, it is better for those who are inconvenient to move and who are weaker to stay in the fertilizer factory. In addition, there are some who may be disobedient. In order to avoid fleeing halfway There are internal disputes, and simply letting them go out to fend for themselves is a way to get the best of both worlds..."

Zhou Rong didn't say a word, and the more he listened, the deeper his smile became.

Feng Wentai's meaning was obvious.There is no need to bring women, old people, and children, and it is best to leave the ones that look more irritating; he is Alpha, and the destination is his hometown, and he can’t be expected to open a warehouse to release food in the Northeast, so Only those who are willing to submit to him and obey him can take them on the road together.

As for the food and materials accumulated in the fertilizer factory, they must all be taken away.

After returning to his hometown, Boss Feng will naturally lead everyone to make a comeback and form a utopia with strict hierarchy - of course, at that time, Zhou Rong and others who followed him at the beginning will not be treated lightly.

"Boss Feng is really far-sighted," Zhou Rong sighed, clapping his hands.

Feng Wentai smiled modestly.

"However," Zhou Rong said sincerely, "we still have to go to the South China Sea."

"……why?"

"Zombies retain many basic biological instincts, one of which is to warm up. Once winter comes, a large number of zombies will gather and go south. At this time, going north will collide with countless zombie tides. This is one of them."

"Second," Zhou Rong's unscrupulous smile gradually disappeared, and his face with deep eye sockets and sharp features finally showed his true expression - unruly and full of hostility, no matter what he looked at, he looked from top to bottom , with a wolf-like sense of oppression: "The virus research data that Zhang Yingjie bought with his life must be sent to the military. Even if the South China Sea headquarters falls, we will go on the road again until the day we find the military."

"On this road, we will not give up any surviving people. The elderly, women, pregnant women, and children, as long as we meet, we will save as many as we can. We will plant when we run out of food, and go find it when we run out of supplies. As long as we When the soldiers are there, the country is there, and no one will be left behind."

Zhou Rong leaned back in his chair, raised his head slightly, raised his bushy and sharp brows, and looked down at Feng Wentai from above.

His knife-like thin lips, dark and strong neck, the contours of shoulder and arm muscles that cannot be concealed by camouflage uniforms, and the submachine gun slung on his right shoulder all show a masculine masculinity.

Feng Wentai was so oppressed that he couldn't breathe, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that he was threatened by a Beta, and suddenly became a little annoyed: "You sound good, you soldiers..."

"You can lobby the person you want to take away." Zhou Rong said lightly, and made a "please go" gesture, which was somewhat elegant: "I will never stop those who are willing to go with you, just You can’t take a single bullet, so go.”

Feng Wentai stood up abruptly, followed by several bodyguards who put their hands on their backs.

Not far away, three special soldiers stepped forward immediately, each carrying a submachine gun, Chuncao coughed coldly.

Zhou Rong sank deep into the back of the chair, as if unaware of the tense atmosphere in front of him.Feng Wentai gritted his teeth and stared at the nasty curve of his mouth, wanted to say something harsh but didn't have the guts to say it, so he had to wave his hand for a while, and said angrily, "Go!"

The Alpha bodyguards of the Feng family followed the boss out of the cafeteria, and Chuncao walked over slowly, looking at their backs with dark eyes: "The Feng family can't hold back anymore."

"I know," Zhou Rong interrupted her.

He pondered for a moment, and slowly made arrangements: "Tonight, everyone will lead people to take turns to watch the night. Keep an eye on the granary, garage, and front and rear doors. Pay attention to Feng Wentai's whereabouts. The windows of Sinankai's biochemical car have been replaced, so it is not bulletproof. Things and weapons were removed from the top, moved to the armored car and locked."

He said Chuncao and nodded, suddenly Zhou Rong seemed to think of something: "Where is Sinan?"

"I just went back to the dormitory and took the blankets, and said that I will sleep in the back factory area at night." Speaking of this spring grass, I feel weird: "What is he doing there?"

Zhou Rong thought of Wu Xinyan who was waiting behind the garage in the back factory area, she was silent and her eyes were dim.

His cold expression made the three team members tremble a little, Chuncao leaned on the back of the chair and asked in a low voice, "Brother Rong?"

"Comrade Xiao Si is an adult—you guys have time to take care of other people's affairs, why don't you think about when you will leave the order?" Zhou Rong stood up and rubbed Chuncao's hair, smiled, and returned to his usual idle posture: "Good girl, bring some potatoes for dad, and don't forget the chili and soy sauce."

·

"That's mine," Sinan said coldly.

Wu Xinyan: "..."

Wu Xinyan turned her outstretched hand consciously, gave up the bottle of honey, and turned to vacuum-pack marinated eggs.

Si Nan raised one eye, his desire to monopolize the marinated eggs was obviously not strong, and the thick eyelashes drooped again.

There were no lights in the abandoned garage, and it was dark in the winter night. There was the sound of cold wind whistling through the window, as if hordes of zombies were whimpering in the distance.

Wu Xinyan shrank back into the blanket while eating the marinated eggs, she obviously couldn't stand the silence, she had nothing to say: "Hey...why do you love sweets so much?"

Si Nan seldom opened his mouth to outsiders, but he always answered his questions, saying, "I don't know."

"As long as it's sweet, do you like it?"

"No."

"Don't you think so?"

"do not think so."

"..."

"My body needs sugar." Sinan said flatly, "I often have low blood sugar."

Wu Xinyan breathed a sigh of relief: "I was thinking just now that people who have experienced a lot of hardships like to eat sweets. If you have a lot of sad stories, I really can't stand it. Huh——fortunately, I was thinking too much."

Simon: "...be normal."

Si Nan took out the bag of candied apples that he didn't want to finish eating from his pocket, and began to eat carefully again. There were smacking sounds in the darkness.

After a while, Wu Xinyan's voice sounded again, a little hesitant this time: "Tell me, will the person surnamed Wan really come tonight?"

"meeting."

"……why?"

Si Nan held half a piece of candied fruit in his mouth, and said vaguely: "If Zhou Rong asks where you have been, Feng Wentai will definitely say that you have run away and disappeared. His bodyguard surnamed Wan knows, and Zhou Rong will ask someone else to find out tomorrow. After the situation, he will have no chance to attack you, so he will definitely seize this last chance tonight."

"And you also said that the man surnamed Wan followed you here today." Sinan swallowed the candied fruit and licked his sticky fingers: "After everyone has gone to bed tonight, he will definitely come."

Wu Xinyan turned pale and nodded.

The two underground rolls of bedding are side by side, and Sinan and Wu Xinyan are wrapped in blankets, with a pile of snacks in the middle.Wu Xinyan finished eating the marinated eggs and wanted to eat a piece of chocolate. She just picked up a piece in her hand when she suddenly realized something, and asked humbly, "Can I eat it?"

"Yes." Sinan said, "Chocolate is the only thing I don't eat."

"……why?!"

Before Sinan could answer, suddenly there was a burst of light footsteps not far away, and then stopped under the rear window.

coming!

Wu Xinyan shivered all over, and the cold shot up from her internal organs. She immediately turned her eyes to her side for help, but saw Si Nan looking back thoughtfully: "...Zhou Rong?"

He wrapped himself in a blanket suspiciously and stood up: "What are you doing standing there?"

The person under the rear window who had never made a sound coughed. It really was Captain Zhou's distinctive mellow bass, which sounded a little guilty for some reason: "Hey, Comrade Xiaosi! I... I can't sleep and just walk around, you Have you eaten?"

Si Nan responded indifferently.

"..." Wu Xinyan greeted tremblingly: "Zhou, Captain Zhou, good evening..."

Si Nan waved his hand at her, signaling to ignore her.

Zhou Rong was very embarrassed: "Good evening, good evening, why don't you two go back to the dormitory? How cold is it to be here?"

"We..." Just as Wu Xinyan said two words, Si Nan waved at her again, this time even frowning unhappily.

Wu Xinyan: "???"

She tilted her head to look at Sinan, and Sinan frowned at her.

Zhou Rong hecked a few times outside the window: "You guys should go back to the dormitory, it doesn't matter, what should I do if I catch a cold outside today? Brother is someone who has been here, everyone understands, you young people hehehe..."

Wu Xinyan deeply felt that she should explain, very much.However, Si Nan's face made it clear that she would not let her speak. The silent contest between the two lasted for several seconds, and Wu Xinyan finally couldn't hold back and went crazy: "What the hell is going on with you?!"

Simon said, "He yelled at me."

Zhou Rong outside the window: "..."

"He said he was going to beat me up." Sinan said coldly, "Who beat whom? I'll give him a hand."

Wu Xinyan was dumbfounded.

Zhou Rong's embarrassment has reached the peak of his life: "Si Xiaonan! Brother is wrong, can I come and apologize to you? I shouldn't yell at you in the morning, don't be angry, I found you something to eat..."

The sound of the plastic packaging bag was Zhou Rong taking out something from his arms:

"Here," he said, "come out, and here's a big bar of Dove's for you."

Simon: "..."
