Doomsday Allure

At dawn, around six o'clock, someone yelled again at the end of the corridor.

A woman in that room turned into a zombie, but unlike the man before, she seemed to be conscious.

When the female zombie was discovered by her husband, she could no longer speak. Her face was pitch-black, her eye sockets and cheeks were sunken, her black eyes were only the size of soybeans, and her neck and hands were shrunk and turned blue-black.

She seemed to be afraid of hurting her child and husband, so she huddled in a corner, stomping her feet and screaming desperately, as if she was urging her husband and child to leave her quickly.

When Shen Wei and the others passed by, the husband and child were dragged by two waiters, the child was crying, and the husband was in disbelief, holding onto the door frame tightly, refusing to leave.

Two zombies appeared in the hotel one night, and the boss was about to collapse. He yelled at a male waiter: "Go to the police, this woman hasn't gone crazy yet, tell them to come quickly, and don't hurt anyone anymore."

If he hurts people again, his hotel will not need to be opened again.

The functional departments of the government are still operating, but the efficiency is much lower than before due to the inconvenient communication. The Mercedes-Benz car that replaced the police car arrived an hour later.

The female zombie was carried into the car by the police almost obediently.

Almost, because she refused to let the police approach because of fear at the beginning, until a bold and careful policewoman comforted her very gently and told her repeatedly that if she didn't bite or scratch, she wouldn't infect others. The female zombie stopped screaming and allowed the police to touch her.

Her husband held their daughter and insisted that they go to the hospital together, and the police agreed.

Xiang Zhen looked at the Mercedes-Benz car going away and said, "Are there really zombies that don't eat people?"

Gao Youxiang said: "Could it be a new attack, and it hasn't reached that level yet?"

Wang Zhengqing said, "I hope not."

Hopefully it's just some kind of virus that changes her appearance and doesn't change her into a completely different creature.

Shen Wei and the others didn't sleep any more, they checked out of the room, and went to the street together to find an early breakfast shop, walked three streets until they found a shop selling beef ramen.

Shen Wei asked the boss if he had any green vegetables, and the boss brought them a plate of fried black bean sprouts that he ate at home. A piece cost 20 yuan, and Shen Wei asked him to bring out as much as he had.

They haven't eaten normal food for almost ten days, and vegetables, which are usually the most worthless, are what they miss the most.

After dinner, the sky is already bright, and it is a sunny and pleasant autumn weather.

Walking all the way to the bus station, there are more and more people carrying big bags and small bags around them, and they are all gathering at the station. Most of these people are tourists who came to Jiman to enjoy the green mountains and green waters before the appearance of Yangsha, but now , not only the power was cut off, the traffic was blocked, but also zombies appeared, tourists were eager to escape.

Shen Wei looked at other people's various bags hanging all over their bodies, and said to Wang Zhengqing and the others: "Go to the bus station later, buy some food and bring it with you."

However, around the bus station where various kinds of snacks should gather, today there are only a few who sell tea eggs and soy milk. Shen Wei and the others bought [-] tea eggs and four bottles of soy milk

, Ask the boss why other snack sellers don’t come out of the stall.

The boss said that he almost didn’t go out of the stall. He used to sell pancakes, but the griddle that spread the pancakes suddenly became rusty two days ago, and the bottom of the big pot for cooking tea and eggs was also rusted. Pot tea eggs are boiled in a ceramic soup pot, so they cost two yuan each, and his big pot is obviously stainless steel.

He guessed that the fried dough sticks and the hand-cooked cakes and sesame seed cakes were all broken tools, and the pans and pans they used were all metal.

The sense of crisis in Shen Wei's hearts became stronger, they added another twenty tea eggs, and ran to the ticket hall with their things.

As soon as I ran to the entrance of the ticket hall, there was a heart-piercing scream from behind: "Ah, ah, you lunatic—"

The four turned around at the same time.

On the side of the road opposite the bus station, a man in a brown sweater covered his face while running and yelling, with blood streaming down his hands. Behind him was a taxi with the cab wide open. This should be a taxi driver. .

Shen Wei and the others ran back as fast as they could, and when they saw two people coming down from the back of the taxi, they yelled "Feng Bo, what's wrong with you", and squeezed together to the passenger seat.

Wang Zhengqing yelled "Don't open the door", but it was already too late.

The person in the bright red jacket had already opened the door, and almost at the same time, the people in the car rushed out, but he did not rush at the person who opened the door, but at a young woman who happened to be coming from the south for unknown reasons. child.

Shen Wei happened to run to the stall where they had just bought tea and eggs. Seeing the bitten taxi driver, the boss was so frightened that he left the stall and ran away. Shen Wei and Wang Zhengqing picked up a small bench, raised their hands and shook out.

The bench flew out with the sound of breaking through the air, and the dull impact and the woman's scream of collapse sounded at the same time.

Shen Wei and the others didn't stop, they ran against the fleeing crowd and followed the flight path of the bench to the opposite side of the road.

The girl was still yelling, and the zombie with a black face and sticky saliva on her chin was lying on her body, and dark green liquid flowed out from the back of her neck and back after being hit.

The zombie's two companions stood there in horror, trembling all over.

Shen Wei's eyes froze.

The faces of these two people were also faintly blue, and their flickering eyes changed back and forth between black and cloudy yellow and white.

"Master Dao, tie them up." While speaking, Shen Wei had already shot like lightning, grabbed a sleeve of the taller man, and in a daze, the man's blue jacket had already passed around his mouth In a circle, he tied his two wrists tightly again.

"Woo, woo, woo..." The man looked at Shen Wei in horror, but because his mouth was strangled by the jacket, he couldn't speak.

"Xiaoxiang, Niuzi, tie their feet, hurry up." Shen Wei issued an order to Xiang Zhen and Gao Youxiang, at the same time, he had already grabbed the man's tied wrists, kicked his knee, and let him go. fell to the ground.

Then, he squatted down and said to the man in the big red jacket: "Sorry, you and your friends should have been infected with some kind of virus, and you two may become like your friends, in order to prevent you from being uncontrollably tearing Biting people, we have to."

After he finished speaking, he stood up, took a few steps back, and said to Wang Zhengqing who had already tied up another man in the same way: "Let's go quickly, look at the blessing card hanging on that man's bag, it is from Banyuequan , Half Moon Spring is in the depths of the Nawuji Desert, we also came from the Nawuji Desert, I'm afraid we also..."

Wang Zhengqing's expression froze: "Understood."

He turned his head to those who were more courageous. After seeing them subdue the zombies, the passers-by who were watching not far away said: "We are from other places and we are going to take a bus. Please call the police and send these people to the hospital." .”

Before he finished speaking, he saw a few people wearing police uniforms and riding mountain bikes coming from the south road.

Seeing the situation here, several police officers rushed over. The leading man was in his thirties. He came over and turned the zombie who was still lying face down. The terrified girl had already disappeared.

The two people who were tied up by Shen Wei and the others no longer struggled anymore. Their condition was not like that of their companion, but the same as the woman in the hotel who was afraid of infecting her husband and children, as if the water in her body had been drained. After more than half of the walk, the muscles atrophied, the skin was black but glowing a little, and the black pupils shrank to the size of soybeans.

Several policemen looked at Shen Wei with admiration in their eyes, and the youngest one asked, "You guys tied them up?"

Shen Wei said: "When I was in the army, I used to joke with each other like this, but I didn't expect to use it today."

The leading policeman stood up.

Before he could speak, Wang Zhengqing said: "We have to take the nearest bus to Uda. It is impossible to go to the police station with you to assist in the investigation. If we miss this bus, we may never be able to leave."

The leading policeman was also straightforward, he took out a notebook and said, "Just show your ID cards."

Four people took out their ID cards.

The name on Shen Wei's ID card is Wang Yaoyang, 29 years old, from Gyeonggi.

The leading policeman copied their ID card information, asked them to sign, and shook hands with Wang Zhengqing: "Thank you! You can go now."

Shen Wei heaved a sigh of relief, turned around with his three comrades in arms, and ran towards the bus station.

The lead policeman also breathed a sigh of relief.

The day before yesterday, a similar incident happened about 200 meters to the north. The local people were frightened and fled in all directions. Two soldiers who were serving at the Jiman border port and were about to return home to visit their relatives took action and knocked over with sticks. The zombified person, the two soldiers were taken back to the police station by Lao Liu who was rushing to deal with the accident. Criminals interrogated repeatedly.

The same situation has been happening in the past two days, because the people who rescued people and were taken back to the police station to cooperate with the investigation were very irritable. The leaders of the police station only discussed with the senior leaders of Jiman City last night. As long as normal people are not harmed, the procedures should be as simple as possible, simply ask about the process and record the identity.

If it wasn't for the meeting yesterday, he would have been overturned by these brave people.

The ticket hall was overcrowded and turned against the sky.

There is no electricity, no radio and closed-circuit network announcement system, and the station staff are shouting with loudspeakers.

Shen Wei and the others listened carefully for a long time before they understood that last night, many cars failed to start again for no reason. Only a few high-end buses bought half a month ago were still able to run, so the number of trains to various cities Keep shrinking.

There is only one trip to Linjiang Town today, and it departs around nine o'clock, with a ticket of [-].

The reason why the people in the lobby were noisy was because the ticket price was too high, and the second was that many cars could not reach their scheduled places.

Many people here go to Uda, but Yulang County is only one-third of the total distance from Jiman to Uda, but the fare is more expensive than the previous journey, and the same is true for buses to other cities. , passengers are not allowed to make noise.

Wang Zhengqing looked at Shen Wei.

Shen Wei nodded.

Wang Zhengqing and Xiang Zhen rushed towards the ticket window.

About an hour and a half later, Shen Wei and the others boarded the almost overcrowded bus bound for Linjiang Town.
