According to the location marked on the map, Tao Zhe successfully found this small village named Wangjiabao.

But when they arrived at the village, they found a high wall built around the village.There are still many villagers on the fence, patrolling with weapons.The sentinel saw a car approaching from a distance, and immediately rang the big bell hanging on the Tucheng tower to warn the village.

In order to show that he had no intention of attacking the village, Tao Xia asked Tao Zhe to park his car in an open space several hundred meters away from the earth wall, spread his hands close to the earth wall, and shouted at the people above: " Don't worry, we have no malicious intentions! It's just that we are too tired from the journey and want to find a place to rest!"

After finishing speaking, he signaled the Tao family to get out of the car, and the other three got out of the car too, and looked at the people on the dirt wall from a distance.After expressing that he didn't have any malicious intentions, Tao Xia spoke again: "We want to go to the village to rest, can you invite the person in charge to come out and speak?"

Soon a strong man dressed as a farmer came up on the dirt wall, and shouted at the four Tao family members below the wall: "We don't accept outsiders in our village, let's go!"

After finally finding a place where they could rest safely, Tao Xia and the others naturally couldn't just give up like this, so they pleaded with the man immediately: "Brother, just consider it a good deed. We came all the way from W City, it's really I can’t walk anymore. Please don’t worry, we are not bad people, we just want to spend a night in the village, and we will leave at dawn tomorrow.”

The man looked at Mama Tao who was standing in the distance, maybe he felt that they were not like bad people, so he shouted to them: "Then you just wait, I'll go down and ask the villagers for their opinions!"

Although I haven't received an exact answer yet, the man has let go, and the original [-]% hope has become [-]/[-]. The Tao family is naturally overjoyed, and said to the man very gratefully: "Thank you, big brother!"

The man waved his hand, and said: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, I'll tell you if it will work or not!" After saying that, he stepped down from the earthen wall, leaving the four members of the Tao family waiting anxiously.

After a while, he saw the man climbed up the earth wall again, followed by an old man about sixty years old, Tao Xia saw the old man look at them from a distance, and then nodded to the man.Afterwards, the man yelled at them: "The people in the village agree, come in!" Then he turned his head and told the people next to him to open the door for them.

With the creaking sound of the planks shaking, the two-person high earth wall slowly revealed a gap, and Tao Zhe drove the car carefully into the earth wall.Behind the car is a slowly descending wooden fence, completely isolating the village from the outside world.

After parking the car, Tao Xia got out of the car and just met the man from before walking towards them with someone.The man is about 1.8 meters tall, with a strong physique, a square face, a big beard, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a little red complexion. He is a typical northern man.

Most notably, his cheeks are sunken and less fleshy, and his cheekbones are wide and pointed.Shengsheng distorted his simple and honest face into a treacherous one.

But Tao Xia didn't pay too much attention to it. Judging from the previous situation, if this man didn't have some brains, he wouldn't be able to be the head of a village.

The two sides met in front of a big stone mill. As a guest who came to stay, it was naturally Tao Xia who introduced him first: "Tao Xia, this is my brother Tao Zhe." Then he pointed to Tao's father and mother, and said, "My father Tao Lin, mother Tang Hui" After that, he explained why his family came here.

That man was very good. After Tao Xia finished explaining, he patted his chest and said with a smile, "My name is Da Biao, and I'm the head of this village." Pointing to the old man who went up to the earth building before, he said, "This It was the former head of our village, Hao Dayuan."

Old man Hao didn't introduce himself too enthusiastically, but just nodded to Tao Xia and the others, which was regarded as a greeting.Next, Da Biao introduced several people from the village, but without exception, their attitudes were a little cold.But the Tao family didn't take it to heart. After all, it was the end of the world, and it was reasonable for the villagers to be cold.

After the two sides introduced, the villagers all dispersed. Da Biao looked ashamed and explained to the Tao family: "There was a robbery by outsiders in the village before, so the villagers are a little cold towards outsiders now, brothers, don't mind." ah!"

The Tao family naturally expressed understanding, and Da Biao said again: "You have come from a long way, so you can stay for a few more days! There are many empty houses in the village now, so I will arrange you to live in the Bai family's house, which is far away from the village. Stay far away, and you don't have to worry about resentful villagers venting your anger on you at night. People from the Bai family have moved out some time ago, and the house has not been lived in for a long time, so you just make do with it!"

The Tao family naturally couldn't express any opinions.Da Biao called a boy named Ermaozi and asked him to lead Tao Xia's family to the Bai family's house in the northwest of the village.

But for some reason, no matter how much Tao Zhe teased him on the way, the Ermaozi always led the way without saying a word. When the Tao family arrived at the house, he ran away without waiting for anyone to thank him.

"This kid is really weird!" Tao Zhe looked at the running away kid, rubbed his head and said bitterly.

Tao Xia was carrying things down in the taxi, and comforted him with a smile, "What's wrong? Maybe he's just not talkative in the first place!"

As soon as Tao Zhe mentioned this, Tao Zhe immediately regained his energy, leaned in front of Tao Xia and said with a mysterious expression: "I tell you, I dare to bet you, that kid is definitely a monkey! I can tell just by looking at his eyes, Can't go wrong!"

Tao Xia was busy unloading the car and had no time to talk to him at all, so he smiled perfunctorily and joked: "Yes, yes, seeing each other of the same kind makes me extremely jealous!"

Tao Zhe also nodded triumphantly and replied: "Of course!" Suddenly realized that Tao Xia was ridiculing him, stepped forward to wrap his arms around him, and swung Tao Xia's arms back and forth, scolding with a smile: "You boy, You still dare to laugh at me, don’t you? If you don’t give me some flair, you still think that big brother is a good cat, don’t you?”

Tao Xia hurriedly begged for mercy, and after he let go, he ran away in a hurry, making faces at a distance and continued to tease him.The two brothers were coming and going in the yard, having a great time.

The village in the Bai family's house is indeed not far away. The other houses are built against the mountains, and four or five houses form a large courtyard.And the distance between courtyards is only tens of meters.

But the courtyard of the Bai family was built on the edge of the entire village, and the nearest courtyard to the village was also 200 meters away.In addition, there is a big fish pond in the middle, and there is only a narrow path to get in and out, so it is very inconvenient to get in and out.

The house must have been unoccupied for a long time, and the dust was everywhere. Tao's mother's cleanliness disorder broke out again, and Tao's father insisted on cleaning the inside and outside of the house.Father Tao went there with a generous expression on his face, while Tao Zhe and Tao Xia cleaned out the stove first, planning to cook a delicious meal and comfort their family.

One by one the brothers washed the vegetables and the other lit the fire. They moved very neatly. In less than an hour, a simple home-cooked meal was freshly baked.The whole family sat together and ate their belly rounds happily.

Until dinner at night, no one came to visit them. After the meal, Da Biao brought some people to visit them, but he left after not staying for a while.

People in the village seemed to go to bed very early, and before eight o'clock in the evening, the nearby houses were no longer visible and their lights were on.In order not to cause other troubles, Tao Xia and the others also turned off the lights and went to bed early.The Bai family's house is a typical farm house. The entrance is the hall, the left is two bedrooms, and the right is the toilet, kitchen and guest bedroom.

The old couple of the Tao family chose the back room, Tao Xia chose the outer room, and Tao Zhe was automatically assigned to the guest bedroom.After laying out the quilt, the four of them went to bed separately.

However, in the middle of the night, a slight movement woke Tao Xia who was sleeping outside.

Tao Xia put on her clothes and shoes, quietly opened the back door and went out, walked around from behind the toilet to the woodshed on the side of the house, and checked the situation outside by the moonlight.

Under the moonlight, a group of dark shadows surrounded the house where the Tao family lived. The leader was tall, and Tao Xia recognized him with just one glance. This person was Da Biao who allowed them to enter the village during the day.But the people around Da Biao were all unfamiliar faces that he had never seen during the day.

The situation was not clear at this time, and Tao Xia didn't want to act rashly and disturb the people outside, so she retreated quietly, preparing to wake up the sleeping family members.

Tao Xia went into the room of Father Tao and Mother Tao, only to find that the person was not in the room.Realizing that something was wrong, Tao Xia hurriedly went to his elder brother Tao Zhe's room, but he didn't expect that Tao father and mother Tao were actually in Tao Zhe's room, while his elder brother Tao Zhe lay unconscious on the bed with his face flushed.

"Xiao Xia..." Mother Tao hadn't finished her words when she saw her youngest son cover her mouth and made a gesture of silence to herself.

"What's the matter?" Realizing that something he didn't know might have happened, Papa Tao approached him and asked in a low voice.

Tao Xia let go of Mother Tao, pointed out the window, and whispered, "There is surveillance." Father Tao and Mother Tao were taken aback, but they still nodded, indicating that they knew.

Tao Xia pointed to Tao Zhe on the bed again, and asked, "What's going on?"

Mother Tao's eyes turned red instantly, and she turned her head away.Papa Tao sighed, and said, "Before when your mother got up to go to the toilet, she found your brother was talking nonsense, so she went in to have a look. How could you call Xiaozhe so he wouldn't wake up, but when your mother touched his forehead, she realized He has a fever!"

Because of Tao Xia's popular science from time to time before, the old couple of the Tao family now also know that after being infected with the zombie virus, they usually fall into a coma for about 3 to 4 hours.During the period, it will be accompanied by symptoms such as fever and convulsions. If it cannot survive, after 24 hours, it will be reduced to a walking dead who only knows to eat.

And Tao Zhe's situation at this time was almost exactly the same as the symptoms that would appear if he was infected with the zombie virus.
