doomsday survival

Chapter 142
The misty rain continuously hit the green leaves, making a rustling sound, washing away the dust deposited on the leaves.The whole mountain forest is intoxicated in the drizzle, as beautiful as the splashed ink landscape.

However, a group of people walking in the forest did not feel this natural beauty at all. The shoes under their feet were already covered with mud, which made it very inconvenient to walk.

"It's been raining for a day and a night, when will it stop?" Xiao Wu grumbled, rubbing her shoes on the tree trunk twice to remove the mud on them.

"Okay, don't complain, after moving this time, we're done." Meizi turned her head and said without stopping.

Xiao Wu pursed her lips, turned her head and glanced at the women on the deer cart, but in the end she didn't say anything, and continued to walk forward with a dull head.

This is the fifth time they have moved supplies, and it will also be the last time.Although there are reindeer pulling carts.However, this primitive cart did not have pneumatic tires, nor did it have steel bearings, and because it was traveling in dense forests, its volume was limited, so it did not increase the speed much, but only saved some energy.

But no matter what, the convenience brought by tools cannot be replaced by manpower.Shi Jian and the others brought back nearly a carload of supplies. After being carried by carts and people four times, there is not much left now. As long as there is one more trip, all the supplies will be gone, except for the cars that cannot drive into the mountains. The move is complete.This is why everyone has to carry it in the rain.

The place on the deer cart was not big, except for Xia Qing and the four women, only Ivan sat on it because of his young age, and the others, including Shi Jian, all walked.After continuous rain for a whole day and night, the meadows and plains were already muddy. Although the woods were better, it was equally difficult to travel long distances.Shi Jian and the others got some grass to wrap around the soles of the shoes, but after a day of walking, they had already been replaced several times.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Shi Jian told everyone to stop and rest. If there were no accidents, they would start early tomorrow morning and reach their destination by noon.

The wet branches were ignited by diesel fuel, emitting a lot of smoke. Everyone stayed away from each other, and sat around until the branches were dried and the smoke cleared.I don't pay much attention when I go out. Everyone eats a little casually, but the water is boiled with ginger before drinking.On the one hand, Shi Jian always emphasizes food hygiene, on the other hand, hot ginger water can drive away the cold in the body, allowing people to recover faster.

After arranging the night watch, Shi Jian asked everyone to set up their tents and take the time to rest.Although there is still a long distance from the old district, and there is a bonfire, there is no need to worry about zombies and beasts attacking, but Shi Jian still insists on the night duty system.In his words, you can't pin everything on luck.

The next day, although the rain stopped, the sky was still overcast, and it was not known when it would rain again.

Without the entanglement of the rain, the people of the Xing'an tribe accelerated their speed, trying to reach the car before noon, so that they could return to the tribe tomorrow night without enduring the continuous rain.

As everyone wished, when they arrived at the place, the hour hand on Shi Jian's watch pointed to eleven.Without taking a break, everyone began to unload and load goods skillfully.

The rest of these things are mainly daily necessities, such as pots and bowls, which are also found in Chen Qiong and Feng Kuang's collections, and relatively speaking, they are not that important.But now is the end of the world, and everything in the old era can be encountered but not sought after, so Shi Jian brought all these things here, and put them directly inside when loading the car.Like other supplies, these daily necessities are packed in tin cabinets.These metal cabinets are all military-style wardrobes and filing cabinets, with paint sprayed on them. Shi Jian picked out these cabinets with a good paint layer after thousands of choices.For him, these cabinets are more useful, and those pots and pans are just an addition.

When everyone was busy loading the car, suddenly, Ivan, who was in charge of security, yelled loudly: "Boss, look over there!"

Shi Jian heard the words and looked in the direction of Ivan's finger, which was the direction of Lin Haizhen.I saw a black line appearing in the far sky, rolling towards here.

"Damn it, what is that?" Shi Jian muttered, raising the binoculars on his chest to look over there.

After looking at it, Shi Jian was so frightened that his hands trembled, and the telescope fell directly. Fortunately, there was a tether hanging around his neck, otherwise it might break.

"The zombies are coming, run!" Shi Jian shouted.

When everyone heard this, they were so frightened that they threw the things in their hands to the ground, raised their legs and ran into the forest.

As for how many zombies there were, no one asked why Shi Jian didn't organize a fight.Obviously, that black line is the group of zombies, which has far exceeded the resistance of everyone.

Compared with other people, Shi Jian is more nervous now.Although the distance is far away, the binoculars can't see clearly, but Shi Jian can still see the group of zombies that can be called the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​corpses. It is estimated that there must be at least a few thousand of them. People looked terrified.

If the number of people is ten times larger now, and he has some heavy weapons, Shi Jian would still dare to compete with zombies, but there are only eleven men and women on his side, and the bullets in his hands add up to less than one thousand Fa, what to fight with?Now the best way to deal with it is only 36 tricks. It is the best policy to go. Whether it can be done is still a question.

However, at this moment, it can be seen that a person's fighting spirit has come. Those women only knew how to run back without taking anything, while Xia Qing held the gun in his hand first, and then went into the forest run.The men are much more stable. Not only did they bring their weapons, but they also untied the reindeer and led them forward together.

As for those things, no one cared about them anymore. Even the most difficult to find supplies in the last days were extremely cheap compared to their own lives.

While running, Shi Jian estimated the distance between the group of corpses and himself. After a rough calculation, he felt that the distance between the two was less than ten kilometers. This way, he could hardly escape the sensitive sense of smell of the zombies.As he ran, Shi Jian suddenly had an ominous premonition, but he couldn't tell what this premonition was.

"What's the problem?" Shi Jian was thinking secretly in his heart, he always felt a great sense of crisis, but he couldn't catch the flashing light in his mind.

"Brother Jian, can we escape?" Xia Qing ran beside him, panting a bit.

"Don't worry, Qing'er, they can't catch up with us." Shi Jian comforted.

"I'm really worried. It's the same as when our tribe was extinct." Xia Qing said in a trembling voice. She was still terrified when she recalled the annihilation of the tribe last year.

"Destroy the clan!" Shi Jian immediately knew where his worries came from.

Although the speed of zombies is a little slower than that of humans, it is not much different, and they have one skill that is better than humans, that is, tirelessness.Long-distance travel is not a problem for zombies at all. They can always move forward at the highest speed, unlike humans, there is always a moment when their physical strength is completely exhausted.

At the moment when everyone has no energy, that is when the zombies catch up with everyone.In addition, there is another possibility, that is, everyone has fully realized their potential and successfully returned to the tribe.The consequence of this is that the tribe is surrounded by thousands of zombies. As long as it is always cloudy, the tribe cannot escape the end of extinction.

This is the catastrophe of genocide!
Shi Jian now very much hopes that God will rain again, so that the rain will dilute the smell of everyone, so that the zombies cannot track him.Or the sky will clear up immediately, allowing the early summer sunshine to kill all the zombies.

It's a pity that the sky failed to meet people's wishes. Although the sky was covered with dark clouds, there was no sign of rain.As for the sun coming out of the sky, that is even more impossible.

what to do?Shi Jian's brain was running fast, and he had to find a way to deal with it immediately, otherwise, the casualties would not only be the people in front of him, but also the old, weak, sick and disabled left in the family. The Xing'an Tribe will be removed from the list!

The Xiaqing tribe's approach to several zombie attacks was to separate a group of people and have them go in opposite directions to distract the zombies, thereby protecting the women and children from retreating safely.The method of the Maozi tribe is also very simple, leave some people behind and let them stop the zombies on the way.They were not afraid that these people would run away, because all the people left had their legs broken.

These two methods are not suitable now, let alone whether there will be people who will carry forward the spirit of fearlessness and willingly die.Even the number of zombies behind cannot be attracted, let alone stopped.

After thinking about it, Shi Jian felt that the most important thing now is the distance between him and the zombies. As long as the distance between him and the zombies is more than ten kilometers away, the zombies who arrive after two hours will not be able to smell everyone, and naturally there will be no tracking Went to the tribe.

But how to distance yourself?Shi Jian turned his attention to the two reindeer.

The reindeer can carry two people, and can maintain a speed of thirty kilometers per hour, so that the zombies can be left behind.After the reindeer runs to the front, one person can ride back and continue to transport people forward. Eleven people and two reindeer can be transported up to five times. Three people, then four times can get everyone out of the tracking range of the zombies.

Shi Jian felt that the method he thought of was completely feasible, but he just didn't know if it was feasible for people's hearts.After all, at this critical juncture, everyone wants to be the first to leave. Whether those who leave will come back on reindeer, and whether the rest will be impatient, these are all things Shi Jian has to consider.
