Doomsday Allure

Wei Buzheng only rested for about an hour before getting up and getting ready to go on the road.

When he returned the winter clothes to Wang Yatong, she woke up, and Xin Yuan and Zheng Li also woke up.

Wei Buzheng said: "I have something urgent, I have to leave first, there will be a period later."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yatong and Zheng Li all stood up.

Zheng Li said, "Let's go together, it will be safer if there are more people."

Wei Buzheng was reluctant, so he said it directly: "I want to leave quickly, you take the children with you, you two are girls, you may not be able to keep up with me."

Wang Yatong and Xin Yuan tidied up their backpacks and said, "We will work hard, if you really can't keep up, you can just leave."

Zheng Li said: "Meiyu and Meiyu's physiques are not bad, let's be like them, if we can't keep up with you, just leave."

Wei Buzheng could only say, "That's fine."

Wang Yatong and Xin Yuan were outdoor sports guides, and they were very agile; Zheng Li and Li Meiyu only had a small bag with them, so they didn't need to pack it up, and they were on the road soon.

Li Meiyu's natal family is in Jiman. Before the construction of the expressway from Jiman to Uda, Zheng Li and Li Meiyu often took the provincial road and were very familiar with the conditions along the way.

They took Wei Buzheng to the southeast, crossed a hillside covered with birch and maple trees, and walked on the provincial road.

Although everyone was worried, after getting acquainted with each other, they still chatted while walking.

The public security situation in Huaxia Kingdom has always been relatively good, and the northern part of Uza is even more honest. The incident that happened in the hotel yesterday should be due to the spread of zombies nearby, or zombies have appeared in the town. The guests concealed the situation.

However, some people in the town who were cruel and greedy in their hearts but did not dare to expose it in the peaceful environment in the past saw the appearance of zombies and other legendary phenomena that symbolized the end of the world at the same time, and felt that the end of the world was coming soon, and the government would soon It's about to collapse, and the sin will no longer be judged, so I no longer suppress my nature and start doing wrong.

But now, after all, the government is still operating, so these people only dare to commit crimes while the moon is dark and the wind is high.

An hour later, they were back on the provincial road again.

The terrain here is much higher than that of the town. When several people looked back, they could vaguely see the outline of the town under the moonlight.

Wei Buzheng was in a complicated mood, sighed, and was about to turn around and continue walking, when Wang Yatong and Xin Yuan next to him suddenly squatted down covering their heads at the same time: "Ah——, ah——"

Zheng Li and Li Meiyu also supported their heads: "Ah, what's going on?"

Wei Buzheng was startled, caught up a few steps and squatted in front of Xin Yuan who was already kneeling on the ground: "What's wrong with you?"

Xin Yuan's face was pale, she struggled to run to the side of the road, and vomited into the ditch by the side of the road.

Wei Buzheng turned to look at Wang Yatong.

Wang Yatong desperately pressed her temple: "I don't know, I have a headache, it hurts so much..."

Li Meiyu was also pale, lying on Zheng Li's shoulder and panting violently; Zheng Li hugged his wife with one hand and covered his eyes with the other. Obviously, he was also suffering the same pain as the three ladies.

Wei Buzheng was at a loss, and turned around in a hurry: "You guys, did you all eat the same food last night?"

Zheng Li shook his head: "No, when we arrived in town last night, the restaurants were closed. We bought the bread at the service counter of the hotel."

Wang Yatong's voice trembled: "Xin Yuan and I ate chocolates brought from Jiman."

Wei Buzheng didn't know what to do. He looked down and saw Zheng Xiao who was holding his father's leg and staring blankly at the direction of the town. He asked, "Are you okay?"

Zheng Xiao ignored him, still staring blankly at the direction of the town.

Zheng Li breathed heavily and whispered, "I'm sorry, Xiaoxiao is autistic."

Wei Buzheng was silent, he picked up Zheng Xiao, touched the child's little face: "Don't be afraid, parents, uncles and aunts are very powerful, we are not afraid of those villains."

Zheng Li said: "Xiaowei, we may become zombies like that BMW driver, please go, please take Xiaoxiao away and send it to my parents, our house..."

Wei Buzheng interrupted Zheng Li: "Brother Zheng, I don't think you are, the person who helped pull the BMW driver turned into a zombie, I didn't feel it at all, and the BMW driver..."

"Hey, hey, I, I don't seem to be in pain anymore." Wang Yatong straightened up suddenly, looked at Wei Buzheng with blurred eyes, and interrupted him.

Xin Yuan also opened her eyes suddenly, and sat up slowly: "I, I seem to be fine."

She said and shook her head vigorously a few times: "It's really good, I don't feel dizzy at all, and I don't feel uncomfortable in my stomach anymore."

Wei Buzheng was stunned, why is it so fake?

But he was sure that Wang Yatong and Xin Yuan were not pretending, and they had no reason to do so, not to mention that Zheng Li and his wife also had the same symptoms.

He looked at Zheng Li and Li Meiyu.

Zheng Li let out a long sigh of relief, and patted his forehead a few times: "I don't feel any pain anymore."

He said and looked at his wife: "Meiyu, are you alright?"

Li Meiyu nodded: "I still feel a little uncomfortable, but my head is not so dizzy."

Wei Buzheng heaved a sigh of relief, and asked, "Then, do you want to sit down and rest for a while?"

"No." Wang Yatong and Xin Yuan stood up at the same time, Wang Yatong reached out and patted his cheeks, "No, I think this world is not right, something big is about to happen, I want to go home early."

Zheng Li reached out and took his son: "Then let's go, Xiao Wei is in a hurry, and I also think something big is going to happen."

Wei Buzheng took the lead, and several people started on the road again, much faster than before.

The scene just now was very weird, but because of the foreshadowing of the previous incidents of people turning into zombies and shoplifting, now they feel a strong danger, and few people are in the mood to dwell on the past.

At dawn, a group of six of them passed a village. There was no one on the street, and they did not stop. They only rested on a small bridge in the south of the village for about half an hour, drank some water, and ate some snacks they brought with them. , and continued on the road.

From time to time, a car passed by them, as long as it was in the same direction as them, Wei Buzheng would stop and wave, hoping to take a ride, but like yesterday, no car would stop.

Two hours later, in a town called Zhangzhai, they saw three people wearing exaggerated masks and riding awkwardly on horses.

Zheng Li took the initiative to greet those three people and asked how they could ride a horse.

The three laughed and said that what they were riding was not a horse, but a mule.

These three people are employees of the Yulang County Government. Now the phone is disconnected, and most of the government's vehicles cannot move, but the work still needs to be done. The government office recruited dozens of horses, mules, and donkeys from surrounding villages. There are more than a dozen bicycles that can still be ridden, temporarily used as a means of transportation, and convey the work instructions of the county government to relatively distant units and towns.

These three people came to send a notice to the Zhangwang Township Office. The county government requested that all units suspend all vacations after receiving the notice. The unit must be on duty 24 hours a day. Village patrols found that those who were infected with rotting corpse disease virus were immediately sent to the county hospital for rotting corpse infection specialist outpatient clinics, and the families and villages where the patients were located were disinfected.

Wei Buzheng and Zheng Li paid respects to the three government officials who were tremblingly riding on the mules, and then waved their hands to bid them farewell.

They walked almost 100 meters, and one of the young men suddenly shouted behind them: "Remember, you must drink water that has been boiled for more than half an hour. Hurry up and buy a mask to wear."

Wei Buzheng, Wang Yatong and Xin Yuan replied loudly: "Thank you! Got it."

In the next town, they actually went into a shop with only the owner to buy masks.

The boss told them, no, it was sold out the next day when the blowing sand appeared. There was a rotting corpse patient in the town the day before yesterday. I heard that people in other nearby villages were also infected with the disease, and the suppliers did not come to deliver the goods. up. .

Wei Buzheng asked: "Is there anyone in the town who goes to the county seat? Or, as long as it goes south or east, it doesn't matter where it is."

It has been more than half a day since last night, and they haven't reached Yulang County. He is eager to catch a ride. If he goes south, he can be closer to Wuda and get on the train earlier. Very doubtful whether the train will still run.

To the east is the direction of Zhongzhou. As long as the general direction is correct, he will not be wronged.

The boss thought for a while: "We have a little money in the town, and they all bought houses in the county seat or Wuda. After the rotting corpse disease, the few houses with cars came back for the holidays. They are afraid that if they get infected here , not even a better hospital.”

Even if there is, they may not be willing to let you take a ride.

Wei Buzheng saw what the boss hadn't said, so he didn't ask any more, bought two bottles of purified water, bought all the chocolates in the store and a pack of whole wheat bread, and continued on the road.

When the sun was about to set, they arrived at Yulang County.

Zheng Li and his wife invited Wei Buzheng, Wang Yatong and Xin Yuan to live in their home.

Wang Yatong and Xin Yuan lay paralyzed on the grass of the roadside garden-style shelterbelt, shaking their heads repeatedly: "We can't take a step further."

Wei Buzheng also politely declined.

The National Highway passed by the east of Yulang County. Zheng Li's family was in the main city. If he passed, he would have to walk about five kilometers.

A few people were talking. A young man and a woman came over on the road leading to Linjiang Town. They seemed to be lovers. After crossing the highway, she sat on the curb next to Wei Buzheng and the others, touched her ankle and said that she would never take another step.

Wei Buzheng asked: "Did you come from Linjiang Town? How is the bridge now?"

The boy said: "It looks fine, but the police and army are guarding it, and only pedestrians are allowed to pass. Others, even motorcycles, are not allowed."

Zheng Li motioned to the girl with his eyes, and said, "You guys came back from Linjiang Town?"

The boy nodded: "We are on annual leave, and the day after tomorrow is full. We want to go back to Wuda today. When we arrive at Linjiang Town, cars are not allowed to cross the bridge. Everyone is arguing with the soldiers guarding the bridge. Our car is stuck in the middle and cannot cross the bridge. I couldn’t go back, and after a long time of fuss, the car couldn’t move at all.”

Wei Buzheng said: "Didn't it be said the day before yesterday that the Linjiang Town Bridge was closed to traffic? Why are you still driving?"

The boy said: "That's how it was notified, but in the local area, as long as it is not a large truck or a bus, off-road or a car, the police can't control it at all. We didn't know until we got there at noon today that the army took over the bridge this morning. , even bullock carts are not allowed to pass, and the bridge looks fine."

"Thank you." Wei Buzheng thanked the boy first, and then said to Zheng Li and his wife, "I have to leave early, I'm afraid tomorrow, even pedestrians will not pass."

Seeing that Zheng Li couldn't convince him, he asked him to sit in the protective forest to rest for a while, and then he came when he went.

After walking for tens of kilometers at once, Wei Buzheng was indeed tired. There was a bench on the path of the shelter forest. He walked over and lay down on it to rest.

Li Meiyu leaned against the tree next to him, hugged Zheng Xiao, and whispered to him.

After a few minutes, Wei Buzheng felt something, he opened his eyes, and Zheng Xiao stood in front of him, looking at him numbly.

Wei Buzheng moved inside, carried the child up, and said to him: "Can you help uncle look after the bag? Uncle wants to sleep for a while, afraid that the bag will be stolen."

Zheng Xiao still didn't speak, and even the expression on his face didn't change a bit, but Wei Buzheng felt that he agreed.

So, he took the child's right hand to hold it, and closed his eyes.

With astonishing speed, Zheng Li brought back a [-]-liter travel backpack stuffed with clothes and convenience food for Wei Buzheng.

Wei Buzheng sat up, feeling very sorry, he didn't take what Zheng Li said last night seriously.

Zheng Li pushed away Wei Buzheng's hand that gave him money, helped him hang the bag on his back, and pushed him toward the road: "Hurry up, the owner of the supermarket said, dozens of rotting corpses have appeared in our county, everyone It is rumored that the end of the world written in novels and movies is coming. Many small supermarkets are closed and refuse to sell goods. The government of larger supermarkets has issued an order to allow them to close early at night and not to suspend business. If you hurry Click to go, you can buy things along the way, if you go late, I'm afraid you won't be able to go.

I originally wanted to get you an [-]-liter or larger bag, but you have to walk behind, and carrying too heavy things will do more harm than good, so I bought this for you, let's go. "

Wei Buzheng waved his hand without hesitation, "Then let's see each other again."

He had already turned around, but hesitated for a while, finally turned around, and whispered to Zheng Li and Li Meiyu, "Brother Zheng, sister-in-law, take good care of your children. I think Zheng Xiao is a little different."

Seeing the astonished and panicked expressions of Zheng Li and Li Meiyu, he quickly went on to say, "Maybe it's a good thing, I think, he has...a supernatural power."

After speaking, he patted Zheng Xiao's head: "Goodbye, Xiaoxiao." He turned and walked towards the main road.

When Wei Buzheng walked about ten meters away, Zheng Xiao suddenly let go and ran after him.

Zheng Li and Li Meiyu called his name and chased after him.

Wei Buzheng turned around, waited for Zheng Xiao to come to him, picked him up, put his right hand on his forehead, and said softly: "I know you are a very smart and good boy, uncle likes you very much, but uncle's house is very far away from here. far, uncle has to go back to his own home."

After finishing speaking, he handed Zheng Xiao to Zheng Li who was chasing after him, and took out a bottle of water from the small bag on his chest and handed it to Zheng Xiao: "If you miss uncle, just pour a little water from this bottle, Fill up your little cup and toast uncle in your heart, okay?"

Zheng Xiao took the water, stared at him blankly, and didn't speak.

Li Meiyu burst into tears, but she was smiling: "Since we were born, Xiaoxiao, except for crying when we were young, we have never actively expressed our emotions."

Zheng Li kissed his son hard on the face: "Our baby is alright, alright."

Wei Buzheng understood their feelings, but he couldn't stop for this, he stretched out his hand to pinch Zheng Xiao's cheek, waved to him, turned and left.

Wang Yatong and Xin Yuan lay on the grass, waved to Wei Buzheng weakly: "Goodbye, I hope to see you again sometime in the future."

They really wanted to continue walking with Wei Buzheng, but they couldn't lift their legs.

Linjiang Town is located in the southeast of Yulang County, [-] kilometers away.

At around [-]:[-] in the evening, Wei Buzheng came to Linjiang Town.
