Doomsday Allure

Shen Wei and the others encountered a little trouble.

They set off from Yulang County, and walked about three kilometers, Xiang Zhen suddenly had a stomachache and felt anxious, and then she couldn't control it.

There is no village nearby, even if there is, the doctors in the village may not open the door for them due to the terrible diseases that have occurred in the past few days.

Shen Wei asked Gao Youxiang and Wang Zhengqing to guard Xiang Zhen, and went back to the street where they had eaten in Yulang County, and found a pharmacy that was open 24 hours a day. Boxes of diarrhea medicine and boxes of antibiotics.

After Xiang Zhen took the medicine, she couldn't stop it for a while, so Shen Wei simply asked everyone to rest where they were.

With Xiang Zhen like this, Shen Wei originally wanted to find a hotel for everyone to stay in and leave at dawn, but unexpectedly, the other three people objected in unison, they wanted to rush back to Zhongzhou as eagerly as Shen Wei.

After the antidiarrheal medicine took effect, they went back on the road, and it was already past the third watch.

Shen Wei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he had been worried just now that diarrhea would be an early sign of mutant zombies.

Fortunately, it wasn't, otherwise, it would take half a year to carry a man as big as Xiang Zhen back to Zhongzhou for thousands of kilometers.

They walked about a kilometer, and suddenly there were several gunshots from the direction of Linxian Town. The four of them were very surprised. Huaxia Kingdom's gun control is quite strict, and people are not allowed to own guns. How could there be gunshots at this time?

An hour and a half later, they got an answer from the crowd fleeing from the direction of Linjiang Town.

Among the people waiting to cross the bridge in Linjiang Town, dozens of people suddenly turned into zombies at the same time. Although there were police officers in charge of maintaining order and soldiers who were specially responsible for emergency treatment of zombies, more than 40 people fell ill at the same time. It happened before, so the scene was completely out of control at that time.

More than a dozen irrational zombies chased and bit the people around them, because the vehicles were too dense, and the panicked crowd occupied the narrow vehicle gaps, running around, and the soldiers with professional tools to deal with the zombies couldn't get away from the zombies in a hurry in front of.

The scene was so chaotic that it was hopeless.

Some of the police and soldiers were equipped with live ammunition. The two policemen saw several zombies jumping at the children who were playing on the side of the road because they were extremely bored. They wanted to shoot and kill the zombies, but the guns jammed. The army chief and Several soldiers shot and hit the zombies.

But what happened to the zombies and those children in the end, the person who was talking to Shen Wei and the others was only focused on running away and didn't see clearly.

Because of the appearance of zombies, those who were confronting the police and soldiers and asked to drive across the bridge all gave up their cars, turned around and fled behind them, or rushed onto the bridge and fled in the direction of their original destination.

Therefore, when Shen Wei and the others came to the Linjiang Town Bridge, apart from the soldiers and policemen who were still standing on the bridge, there were only good or scrapped cars that were jammed for several kilometers, and there was no one waiting to cross the river.

Several people dressed like astronauts, each with a sprayer, are spraying disinfectant side by side from south to north.

Near the head of the bridge, in front of two military tents, a dozen soldiers held guns and formed a circle from a distance. In the middle was a group of zombies lying on the ground struggling with their hands and feet tied and their mouths strangled.

Soldiers and policemen were still standing on the side of the road and on the bridge. No one pestered and scolded them anymore. They stood silently at this moment. In the huge world, there were only the low roars of zombies, the sound of the wind, and the sound of the tumbling water of the Wula River.

The four of Shen Wei walked onto the bridge under the watchful eyes of hundreds of soldiers and policemen. The four of them, who were able to take their time on the battlefield filled with gunpowder, felt a little unable to walk at this moment.

After walking more than ten meters under the attention of everyone, in Shen Wei's mind, or in his eyes—he couldn't tell where it was—a gray image suddenly appeared, which was the Linjiang Town Bridge under his feet. .

But the road surface of the bridge under his feet is complete, and the Linjiang Town Bridge in Shen Wei's eyes (maybe in his mind) has a few cracks in the same direction - all from southeast to northwest - close to the center of the bridge. In the place, there is also a straight horizontal crack, which is wider than several oblique cracks.

Shen Wei shook his head, looked up at the sky, the picture was gone; when he looked down, the road surface of the bridge in front of him was still smooth, but soon, the picture of the bridge full of cracks appeared in his mind again.

Shen Wei didn't have any psychological or visual disorder because of this, the bridge in front of his eyes was clear, and what was in his mind was also clear, and when he continued to move forward, when he reached the place where there was a crack in his eyes (or mind), he would subconsciously Take a big step to bridge the gap.

Wang Zhengqing keenly sensed his abnormality, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Shen Wei also replied in a low voice: "Let's talk after crossing the bridge."

Walking to the middle of the bridge, several lights were hung here, and there were three policemen standing side by side under the lights. They were standing on the horizontal crack in the middle of Shen Wei's mind, but Shen Wei knew very well that the bridge was at the moment There is no danger for now.

Shen Wei didn't understand where his feeling of certainty came from, but this feeling was clear and firm.

He hesitated for a moment, but still signaled Wang Zhengqing and the others to wait for a while, and walked over by himself.

Several policemen looked at him.

Shen Wei said: "Excuse me, will this bridge be completely closed, and will pedestrians be prohibited from passing?"

The policeman in the middle said: "Bridge experts from the province have been monitoring. The damage caused by the earthquake on the bridge is continuously deteriorating. If you have relatives and friends who need to go home or go somewhere through the bridge, hurry up."

It turned out that bridge experts were involved in the current management of the bridge.

Shen Wei felt relieved, said "thank you", returned to his comrades, and after walking more than ten meters, he turned his head and said to several policemen: "The place where you are standing is the place where the bridge is most likely to break. , In fact, as long as the two ends are well guarded, there is no need to arrange people on the bridge, you should go to the road."

A few policemen were a little confused. After looking at each other for a few seconds, they moved a few meters to the side without intending to get off the bridge. One of the policemen said to them: "Cross the bridge, go further away, and don't stop at the section where the traffic is the most concentrated. , there was a patient with specific pneumonia a few hours ago, and it will be transmitted through the air."

Shen Wei said, "Thank you."

After reaching the south bank and walking down the bridge, Shen Wei turned around and tried from another angle.

The image of the bridge reappeared in his mind, and the crack was exactly the same as what he had just seen on the opposite side.

The soldier guarding the bridge saw that he had already gone down, but he didn't leave. Not knowing why, he asked, "What's the matter?"

"No, thank you!" Shen Wei said, "I think it's not easy to cross this bridge, so take a second look."

After leaving the bridge, they walked along the edge of the road and walked through the most congested section of the road, and then walked a few hundred meters. They stopped when they felt safe. Gao Youxiang walked along a big tree by the side of the road and fell to the ground: " Boss, we have crossed the river, let's rest here."

Shen Wei said: "Success, but there is no hotel here, how about we go further..."

He couldn't continue, and as soon as he uttered the word "cheng", Gao Youxiang immediately lay flat.

Xiang Zhen said: "Captain, you don't need a hotel, you just lie down and sleep, where can't you lie down?"

Shen Wei slapped Xiang Zhen heavily on the shoulder. He knew that Xiang Zhen didn't want to spend money, and everyone knew that they were running out of money.

Gao Youxiang lay on the ground with his limbs wide open and said, "I don't live in a hotel, so I can sleep forever."

"What nonsense are you kidding?" Wang Zhengqing reprimanded Gao Youxiang, then turned to Shen Wei and said, "I mean the same thing."

It was around five o'clock in the morning, the darkest hour before dawn, except for a few faint lights on the bridge behind me, it was dark all around.

Shen Wei's eyes fell on the car in the middle of the road: "It's okay not to stay in a hotel, I guess most of the cars are unlocked, let's go and find a spacious car, which can be used as an RV."

"Damn it, why didn't I think of this?" Xiang Zhen said excitedly, "Captain, tell me, are there any cars that can continue to drive here? If so, you don't have to run to that base. You don’t even have an ID card, if someone doesn’t recognize your face, we will have to run more than 20 kilometers for nothing.”

"Wow, that's right." Gao Youxiang, who was still like a dead dog just now, regained his energy, grabbed the hand that Xiang Zhen handed to him and climbed up, "Captain, let's go to sleep now, and when we wake up, let's pick each other. With so many cars ahead, there must be some that can still be driven.”

Shen Wei said: "Then it's settled, sleep now, pick up the car when you wake up."

Wang Zhengqing pointed to the place to the south where there were only a few cars: "The one over there looks like an RV."

Shen Wei had also seen the car: "Go, go and have a look."

When I got closer, I found that it was really an RV, a Mercedes-Benz; the one to the south of it was a Jaguar SUV.

The two cars were unlocked, Xiang Zhen searched with a small flashlight, the Mercedes-Benz's remote key was still in the car, but the Jaguar's could not be found.

Shen Wei noticed that the spray paint on the two cars had started to peel off.

Xiang Zhen said: "Captain, you and Mr. Dao will sleep in the RV. I really like Jaguar, girl, we will sleep in it."

"Success," Shen Wei said with a smile, "don't worry about an emergency assembly, just sleep until you wake up naturally."

Xiang Zhen snored while sleeping, Shen Wei knew that he wanted Wang Zhengqing and himself to have a good rest, and he really needed to plan the future with Wang Zhengqing, this arrangement was just right.

Wang Zhengqing got into the car first. He wanted to test whether the car could still drive, but the result was that it couldn't, the engine wouldn't start at all.

Shen Wei roughly observed the surrounding terrain, and when he was about to get in the car, he accidentally glanced to the south, just in time to see a slender figure running out of the woods on the hillside, jumping onto the road, and quickly disappearing into the vast darkness.

Shen Wei thought to himself, in this situation, he dared to walk alone at night, is it the courage of a high-level artist, or is it stupid?
