return of the dead

There was no one else in Block C, so they put the pot directly at the door of Block C, and watched the moon while eating against the sky.

A pot of clear soup, messy stewed wild vegetables, a package of unpacked mustard, to share between five or six people, and the special fresh snail meat dumplings that no one has ever tasted... This meal is richer than the previous day , Xiao Shao even named it "Man Han Banquet".

Zhai Haojun held the soup bowl and looked at the full moon outside the window.After the outbreak of zombies, almost all factories shut down, and the sky in the city was cleaner than before.Looking at the moonlight outside the window, Zhai Haojun thought of his hometown, he suddenly turned his head and said to everyone: "In our Kazakhstan, the holidays are much more lively than your Han people."

Xiao Shao said with a smile, "You are not nomads there, there are very few people there."

But upon hearing these words, a smile suddenly overflowed on Zhai Haojun's face. He held Mo Fei's hand and said, "Come on, let me show you how we Kazakhs celebrate the festival."

Could it be that Zhai Haojun pulled him up from the stool suddenly, and almost choked on a mouthful of food in his trachea.

The girls cheered and applauded them, while Xiao Shao blushed and shouted, "Hug each other!"

"Don't do anything, just talk about it!" Mo Fei was nervous, he wanted to push Zhai Haojun's hand away, but he didn't expect the host to grab his shoulder unexpectedly.

The loud tenor voice suddenly brightened, and everyone in the room fell silent.

After singing, Zhai Haojun seemed to have returned to the grassland.There were his people, his cattle and his sheep.During the festival, they will sing and dance around the bonfire, and sometimes even several groups will gather together to bring out the best kumiss.His adoptive father was the best rider on the prairie, and he often rode against his adoptive father when he was a child, but he never won until he was 20 years old.

Could it be that he couldn't understand what Zhai Haojun was singing, but like everyone else in the room, he was infected by his singing and beat to the rhythm.

Gu Lan stood up first, and she stood beside Zhai Haojun.Driven by this, no one moved those vegetables anymore, and they stood in a circle, shoulders next to each other.Everyone put their arms on the shoulders of the person next to them, imitating Di Haojun's appearance.

Di Haojun's face was full of excitement, he was tall and straight, standing in the middle of the room, he looked very burly.He showed everyone the steps and led them around in circles.

Could Fei be stepping on clumsy dance steps, while Xiao Shao and the others laughed.Gu Lan's face was also flushed. She took away some extra dumplings on the table, and said to Xiao Shao, "I'll go and deliver some to the guard at the door, and you can continue playing."

"Okay." Xiao Shao let go of his hand.

In the afternoon, Gu Lan had already inquired.The airfield was stationed by soldiers who had survived from several nearby towns.Most of the other troops basically died in the process of eliminating the zombies.The remaining soldiers will soon be withdrawn, and City C will soon become a no-man's land.

Just as she was approaching the two soldiers, Gu Lan heard their conversation:

"Are those people still guarding that stadium and refusing to leave? It's crazy!"

"Where do you think they can go? They are all prisoners. If they follow our plane, they will still have to be locked up in a safe area."

"That's true, but it's too unsafe here. Except for the vicinity of our airport, the entire city of C is almost full of zombies. There is no food, how long do they want to last?"

"I heard that they built a strong fortress...ahem...it smells so good, what's the smell?"

Gu Lan appeared in front of the two soldiers with dumplings, and she said, "You two brothers have worked hard, let's eat something, it's all hot."

One of the soldiers swallowed his saliva, but the other soldier didn't have so many worries. He grabbed one dumpling and ate it in one bite, then grabbed the second one and said while chewing: "It's delicious, why don't you come and taste it? It's been a long time I have never eaten such delicious meat, and I never ate snail meat before, so I didn’t expect it to be so delicious.”

"You are very hungry. Thank you, little sister, for your kindness. We are still on duty and cannot eat."

"Pull it down, you didn't catch snails last night?"

"Fuck! Then can you stop dragging me into the water? If Captain Li sees it, we'll all be in bad luck. Don't eat you."

"Ahem...the last bite."

"You two! What are you doing!" Suddenly, such a roar came from the side.

The two soldiers stood at attention in fright, and after a long time, a laugh came out of the darkness.

Gu Lan saw a man in a soldier's uniform appearing in front of him, and the two soldiers relaxed when they saw that man's face.The soldier with half a dumpling in his hand said, "Second Daoist, don't scare people in the middle of the night."

"Who do you think I am? Captain Li? I said you are so courageous that you dared to steal food while on duty. What is this? Where did it come from?"

"This is the dumpling given by my little sister, would you like to try it?"

The soldier known as the "Second Daoist" only noticed Gu Lan standing in the corner at this time. He smiled shyly at the little girl and said, "Thank you."

"Thank you, the dumpling wrappers were given by your army, and the fillings were caught by these guys yesterday."

Erdao Chang was dumbfounded when he heard that, and threw the dumpling he just picked up into the bowl like this: "This... is this the dumpling made with snails they caught last night? Don't eat it. I ate a little for dinner , I've been having trouble with my stomach until now."

"Ah? Oh no, I ate a lot, yo, after you say that, I suddenly feel sick to my stomach, no, I have to take a shit."

With the help of the light, Gu Lan could see the face of Er Daochang clearly, and she was startled by what she found.

Brown spots appeared on Erdaochang's face and neck, and his neck seemed uncomfortable, and he was scratching the back of his neck with his hands.

Gu Lan saw that his fingernails were very long, and the seams between the nails were green.And his body also faintly reveals a strange rancid smell.

Gu Lan couldn't help stepping back, she saw another soldier had a large ulcer on the back of his neck, the white bones were exposed, and blood was still gurgling.The soldier beside him who hadn't eaten the dumplings was also coughing unceasingly, and even bruises appeared on the back of his hands.

Gu Lan almost slammed into the door, startling everyone in the hall.She frantically threw away the dumpling bowl from Xiao Yu's hand, then went to close the door and stuck a stick in it.

Mo Fei and the others looked bewildered, and Gu Lan shouted: "Don't touch that dumpling, the snails are poisonous!"

"Touch!" The soldier at the door smashed the bowl and fell to the ground. Soon, they heard the sound of the dead soldier lying on the ground struggling.

Xiao Yu hugged Xiao Shao, and Xiao Shao's face was pale: "I ate..."

"Who else has touched anyone, stand up." Gu Lan stood far away, unwilling to approach Mo Fei.

Mo Fei's eyes swept across the familiar faces, and he felt his temples throbbing.how come?How could I be so careless?However, the outbreak of zombies in Japan has been going on for so long, and it has never been heard that other animals are also infected by zombies.

Finally, he asked Gu Lan in disbelief, "Are you sure?"

Zhai Haojun never left his knife. At this time, he had already drawn out the knife. He said to the people around him: "Who else has eaten the snail, stand over there. Don't affect the safety of others."

Xiaoyu cried "Wow", while the other two girls said to each other nervously: "I didn't touch it, and she didn't touch it, so please don't do this, okay? We escaped together, and you even saved us."

"Papa, papa", the dead soldiers at the door have been resurrected, they are not yet familiar with their own bodies, and they waved their tireless arms and beat the door feebly.

"Our things are all in the car. We have to find the main force as soon as possible. It is too unsafe to stay alone in Block C. Climb down from the second floor, and the parking lot is not too far away from here." Zhai Haojun said.

Mo Fei nodded, he understood the other meaning of Zhai Haojun's words, some of them had eaten snail meat, if the incident happened because of this, then the rest of them might also become zombies.They need weapons in the car.

Gu Lan and Xiao Shao looked at each other, and walked to the back consciously, followed by Zhai Haojun, holding a knife in his hand.

The structure of the second floor is similar to that of the first floor, except that there are a few windows in the deepest part of the public corridor.Zhai Haojun had already observed the surrounding area when he lived here, and he asked Mo Fei to take the lead.

When Mo Fei was about to go downstairs, Zhai Haojun pulled him aside and whispered, "Gu Lan and Xiao Shao are probably infected. I only see that you haven't touched that dumpling. I don't know about the others."

"I understand your personality, don't be impulsive. Gu Lan is just guessing, what if it's not..." Mo Fei said.

"What if it is?" Zhai Haojun squeezed Mo Fei's hand, holding him painfully, "Listen, I know they are all our partners, but if someone really becomes that kind of thing, you Just use this knife to stab her in the head, don't be soft."

Mo Fei took the knife hesitantly.

"Could it be that I have no one else to trust except you. Protect yourself, you know?"

"I know. You too." Mo Fei took a deep breath, his body quickly disappeared from the window, and he climbed out along the high platform on the second floor.

"You go first, Gu Lan and Xiao Shao will break up with me." Zhai Haojun said.

When she saw the appearance of those soldiers with her own eyes, how could Gu Lan not be nervous.She kept observing Xiao Shao and herself, and she didn't know why, and the two of them didn't have any abnormal reactions until now.

When everyone went downstairs, it was the three of them' turn to go.Gu Lan held Xiao Shao down and said, "I'll walk ahead, Zhai Haojun, don't worry, I know what to do."

Just when Gu Lan was about to go downstairs, there was a roar of zombies from downstairs.Then, a high-pitched female cry was heard.

"Oops!" Zhai Haojun looked down.

In the dark night, he couldn't see clearly what the people downstairs were doing, only saw a few figures wrestling together.And Xiao Yu stood on the nearby window sill and cried.

"Let me go first." Zhai Haojun jumped onto the windowsill.

But at this moment, Xiao Shao behind him suddenly hugged Zhai Haojun's waist.
