The way home

Jiang Sen slashed at the approaching zombies with a long knife. There was news of retreat behind him. He didn't care about fighting and left quickly. He heard gunshots as soon as he got in the car. He heard that the voice was not from them. He turned his head and looked At a glance, a convoy came not far away. There were four cars in total. It was impossible to tell how many people were in the car. There were people in the two cars in front and the last car. The gunshots came from the car in front. I couldn't help but laugh here, these people are really bold, they really dare to break into Nanji City.I don't know if they came to their base.

When they got closer, they realized that there was a Hummer in front of them. This car was rare, and there weren't many of them in the first place, but for the fare, their base didn't have much gasoline.

"Where's yours?" asked the captain of the team.

"We are going to City B and want to cross the river. Are you from the Nanji base? Can we go with you?" It was Qiu Yi who answered, and Jian Bai took the opportunity to drive the car to the front.

It is not difficult for them to find them, and they are not far away. Qu Xiao's double guns are better for long-range attacks. Last night, Qu Xiao completely trained the guns. The mental power aimed, and the hand followed it without any error, so after entering the city, he still leaned on the skylight to beat the surrounding zombies, while Qiu Yi continued to sit on the roof of the car, and the two cooperated tacitly, basically no fish slipped through the net. But in order to save bullets, only shoot particularly dangerous ones.Although the two cars in the back didn't have guns, it was fine to have Qiu Yi staring at them, not to mention that Wang Weiwei was also very powerful.

There were quite a lot of people at the base, and the gang they encountered was a team of more than 30 people, all armed with knives and guns, driving a large truck full of supplies.

The captain of the other party nodded after hearing what they said. Those who went to City B had nothing to do with them. They walked together, but followed behind.As for whether they can save their lives, it is up to them.

There were a lot of convoys entering Nanji City, obviously they were also divided into regions, and now they returned with a full load, and there was no round, the convoy went directly to the outskirts of the city, Qu Xiao and his group hardly felt any danger, and all the zombies that rushed up were crushed to death by the convoy.

This side of the bridge has been controlled. Several fences are controlled by the army. They did not check when their convoy passed by. This is not the last obstacle.Or maybe I think these zombies aren't that scary so there's no need for that.Qu Xiao felt that such a state was not good.

After crossing the bridge, they found that the base was on the opposite side of the bridge, separated from Nanji City by a big river. This place used to be the development zone of Nanji City.Use the surrounding buildings of the development zone to form watchtowers, on which there are many soldiers with guns.

The team needs to check the registration when entering the base.Thirteen or fourteen trucks in front need to be inspected.It is estimated that they will have to wait for a while.

"Battalion Commander?" A voice suddenly sounded.

Mo Fei was half lying on the car door and didn't pay attention, but Qu Xiao realized that it was a person from the front team who called Mo Fei.He reached out and poked Mo Fei.

"what happened?"

"Did that person call you?" Qu Xiao pointed.The man had already walked over quickly.

Mo Fei turned his head to look, with a surprised expression on his face, "Jiang Sen - why are you here?"

As he spoke, he opened the car door and walked out.

Jiang Sen looked excited, "Battle Commander, I didn't expect to see you here. I heard about you before—it's great." He was so excited that he felt a little incoherent.

Could it be that he stretched out his fist and hammered Jiang Sen on the shoulder, feeling very excited. After all, seeing his former comrades-in-arms, this is something that he never expected, "Why are you here, where are the other people in our battalion?"

"Last year, when our division was reorganized, our battalion was also disbanded. The people in our battalion were assigned to various military regions. I was assigned to the Northwest Military Region. My mother passed away a few days ago, and I went home to visit relatives. This happened to me. I can't get in touch with the army. It seems that there is more chaos there. Now I am at this survivor base. How about you, battalion commander? Where are you going? Xiaodouzi called me before and said that he saw you in the south. "Jiang Sen said and shook his head, "Let's not talk about the past." They heard about the battalion commander in the army. Although they felt that he had committed a crime legally, they didn't think so deep down. , They all secretly relieved their anger.

"We're going to City B. We just passed by you. I want to cross the river. Are there any requirements for entering the base? Do we have to collect our guns? If so, let's go around." Mo Fei saw the front Some people handed over their guns.

Jiang Sen followed his gaze, "No, they rented the guns, and they have to return them when they come back. Since you are not going to be at the base, you just need to register, but you can't enter the inner city, and there is no assistance. It's dark now. It's early, you should stay one night. If you don't enter the inner city, the base doesn't have so many rules."

After listening to it, he discussed it with a few people and decided to stay one night and set off tomorrow, just in time to find out the news. "We'll just stay one night."

Jiang Sen was very happy to hear that, after registering with their team, he told their captain, and came to help Mo Fei and them.

Registration is still very simple, just write down the name, the number of people, and the destination. In fact, the name is useless, and the same is true for using a pseudonym. However, using the real name is convenient for searching.

Entering the base, there is a big square, which provides convenience for passers-by, and further inside is the inner city of the base.There are more requirements to enter the inner city.

There are quite a few people passing by, and you can see tents and cars on the square, "Some of these people have been here for a while, some of them have gone to the city to find the supplies they need, some are waiting for someone, and some want to stay here Let’s go to Nanji City to get some supplies before leaving.”

"Oh, the management of this base is not very strict?"

"No, you are leaving tomorrow, so the base doesn't have many requirements. Those who stay for a long time have to hand in some things. After all, they are also sheltered by the base. Every time they come back, they have to hand in some supplies to the base. Look at that A few, that is, a few permanent teams."

"Why don't they go inside the base?" Qu Xiao felt that it must not be as safe as the inside.

Jiang Sen replied, "Although the outside is more dangerous, there are fewer things to hand in every time you come back, and the rules here are not as strict as inside the base, so there are still teams willing to stay outside."

While talking, they came to an open place, which was also divided into blocks outside. As soon as their car stopped, an administrator came over.

"You have to pay rent to stay here, and you need to pay with resources such as food or gasoline. Such a place needs five catties of rice or five catties of white flour for one night." Jiang Sen explained.

"Then what if there is no rice and flour?"

"Then use other materials. Since the team is here, they can basically pay for it."

This area is about [-] square meters, enough for them to stay and camp.Handed over five catties of rice.This place is enough for them to stay for one night.

Dongdong got out of the car, became lively and kept running and jumping in the open space, looking like a child.

The few of them suddenly came to a safe place but didn't think much about moving. They spread mats on the ground, boiled hot water in an alcohol pot, made a pot of tea, and sat on the ground. The sun was still strong at four or five o'clock, so it wasn't so hot. But basking in the sun at this time is a kind of enjoyment.

Qu Xiao didn't sit cross-legged either, with two long legs lying flat and the other leaning on the back with his hands closed, basking in the sun with his eyes closed.Could it be that the skin on his face was illuminated by the sun like a layer of fluorescence, and suddenly thought of what this flawless face would look like under the moonlight?Sitting cross-legged behind him, he patted his shoulder, "Lean on me."

Qu Xiao turned his head to take a look, smiled, and leaned unceremoniously.

Qiu Yi sat next to Mo Fei, poured a glass of water, and drank it in a relaxed manner.

Jian Bai started to get busy, preparing to make dinner. He adapted well to his new job and was enthusiastic.

It was the first time Jiang Sen saw such a leisurely person after arriving at the base.But thinking about it, they should have only stayed for one day to relax.In this way, I also sat down and introduced some information about the base to them.

After listening to his introduction, everyone felt a little bit down. This survivor base has only been established for a few days, and it has already begun to take shape. However, the system inside is still in the exploratory stage and is not so rigorous.In fact, everything is still messy.Only some of the most basic systems.However, compared to settling the survivors, the base organized a lot of convoys to find resources and wipe out the zombies in Nanji City, so as to wipe out all the zombies and let people return to the city.

In the face of zombies, people are not so afraid after the initial scare period. They do not move fast and attack in simple ways. In the development zone, sweeping here, zombies are easy to clean up, and it is not difficult for them to establish a safe zone.So people are very confident.

"It's really optimistic. Yesterday the convoy entered the city for the first time. Not only did they clear out a lot of zombies, but also brought back a lot of supplies. This made everyone very confident. Today's trip is a bumper harvest. I'm afraid they are full of confidence, but I always feel that It can't be that simple. The disaster is not over yet." Jiang Sen frowned, he didn't say this to anyone, he always had a bad feeling when he saw the dense crowd of zombies in Nanji City.I always feel that things can't be that simple.If he wanted to say this, he was afraid that someone would say that he was alarmist.The people at the base were still in a panic, but after everyone came back yesterday, the mood of the base changed. When we went out again today, everyone was not as united as yesterday, and they were divided into teams.Start doing things for your own benefit.

"Did you find a faster crawler that landed on all fours when you entered the city?" Mo Fei thought for a while and asked.

"Crawlers? I haven't encountered any of them before. Could it be that some powerful zombies have appeared?" Jiang Sen asked anxiously. "Yesterday, when the convoy came back, they didn't find any special zombies, nor did they find any today."

Could it be that Qiu Yi and Qiu Yi looked at each other, feeling very strange, "Have you encountered any zombies that are fast, similar to normal people, and have great strength to command ordinary zombies?"

Mrs. Jiang shook her head and asked anxiously, "Have you ever encountered such a zombie, Battalion Commander?"

Mofei nodded, "We have encountered it more than once. It stands to reason that with the population density of Nanji City, there should be such zombies. Why didn't they?"

Qu Xiao sat up suddenly after hearing this, stood up and went to the car to get the map, Mo Fei and Qiu Yi stopped talking and looked at him.

Qu Xiao took a map and a few meteorite distribution maps downloaded from the Internet, and sat back again, "Look, the place we walked before belongs to the coastal line, and most meteorites landed in this generation before, and many meteorites landed in Qianshui City, while There are no around Nanji City here, I wonder if it has something to do with it, or the virus here is stronger and the zombies evolve faster."

Several people looked down at the map and compared the distribution of meteorites. Mo Fei and Qiu Yi found that the place they walked was indeed densely populated by meteorites, but there were no places around Nanji City.

"So the inland area is safer?" Qiu Yi asked.

Qu Xiao shook his head, "I can't say that. The virus has spread all over the world through the air and rain. There will be no luck. It's only a matter of time before the zombies will evolve. It can only be said that coastal areas are more dangerous."

"It's better to be later."

"What do you mean, can these zombies really evolve?" Jiang Sen asked with a bad face.

"Well, zombies can evolve. We have encountered two higher-level zombies, one is called a crawler, he was bitten by an infected person, and he did not become a normal zombie, but a crawler. Humanoid, fast with a long tongue to attack, hands and feet with claws, big and powerful. If you don’t eliminate them at the beginning of the change, they will be even more powerful.” Just like Zheng Guo at the beginning is not as good as the second time they meet the creeper.The second one encountered was obviously not completely evolved, but it used its power better.

"In addition, we also encountered a zombie. It should be a zombie that has undergone secondary evolution. There are no wounds on the body. If you don't look at the skin color, teeth and eyes, it is not much different from a human. This zombie not only has a lot of power , he can also control ordinary zombies. Because no wounds were found on his body, we suspect that he is the type of person who directly turned into a zombie, and he is so strong after a second evolution." Could it be that he did not hide this, only by understanding can we prevent it , if possible let everyone know.These are actually summed up by Qu Xiao. Although he has always said that it is speculation, Hua Yun has not stopped these few days, and has been processing those samples. Based on the different changes of the virus in the blood, he came to such a conclusion.Basically it can be confirmed.

When Jiang Sen heard the news, his expression was very bad, "I have to tell the base about this." After speaking, he glanced at Mo Fei.

Mo Fei nodded. "Well, this is our personal experience. There is nothing to say. Telling the base can also make the base prepare earlier."

"I have some information here, you can take it." Qu Xiao thought about it and got up, and took out a few pieces of paper from the car. Although there are not many, they should not be underestimated. Here are the information about the creeper and the second generation zombies. There are even graphics drawn by him on it.There are also some analyzes of zombies.Hope to have some use for this base.

"Thank you." Jiang Sen took the document and read it carefully.

"It's nothing." Qu Xiao shook his head, wondering if the base could take this matter seriously.Now the computer network can still be connected, and there are several forums where posts can be posted. He also posted these online, but the effect is not very good.After all, in the past few days, everyone has just accepted the existence of zombies, and he came out to say that zombies can evolve. Many people will subconsciously not believe it, or doubt it. They will always doubt it without seeing it with their own eyes.Believe only a few.As for other encounters with creepers or second-generation zombies, it is estimated that only a very small number of them are still alive.

Seeing Jiang Sen leave, Mo Fei sighed, "Just try your best. Don't think too much." He patted Qu Xiao on the shoulder. Although Qu Xiao looked deserted, he knew what he did every day. He has never given up on researching virus antibodies and has been researching zombies.But what can they do now? They speak lightly for fear that people will not believe them.

Qu Xiao nodded, now he is no longer the dean of the base research institute.
