I am in the last days, I can connect to reality

The next day, after breakfast, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.

It rained heavily outside all night and no one knew when it stopped. Everyone got on the SUV. Wang Boshen drove and when he saw that everyone was in place, he stepped on the accelerator and rushed out of the underground parking garage.

While having dinner last night, everyone had already discussed today's goal and was preparing to go to Nangang Wharf, which is more than 20 kilometers away from here.

Because, from there, it should be the nearest pier to Hengsha Island, but I don’t know whether it is controlled by humans or occupied by zombies.

Along the way, the haze was like a thick layer of gray gauze, covering this once prosperous city.

The streets were filled with desolation and deathly silence. Only the roars of zombies occasionally broke the silence, echoing between the empty buildings.

While driving to Nangang Wharf, you can often see agile zombies wandering among the dilapidated buildings, like ghosts, looking for traces of survivors.

These once well-dressed humans have now become puppets of the virus, losing their former vitality and vigor, leaving only endless killing instincts.

However, the cruelty of the apocalypse is not limited to the rampage of zombies.

The dual attacks of viruses and rain have caused earth-shaking changes in the ecology of this city in the past six months.

Since the end of the world, especially in recent months, the weather has become rainy and humid. Plants have begun to mutate and grow wildly under the catalysis of viruses and the nourishment of rain.

The flowers, plants and trees that originally looked docile have now become wild and ferocious. They are spreading at an alarming speed, tightly wrapping the entire city like a giant green spider web.

For example, at this moment, at the end of the street where the SUV was moving, there was a towering ginkgo tree rising from the ground and reaching into the sky.

Before the end of the world, a ginkgo tree of thirty meters was considered tall, but this one looked to be over a hundred meters tall. Its trunk was extremely thick and covered with rough cracks, and its branches and leaves were like the claws of a giant dragon, stretching out wantonly, so dense that it was almost airtight, and layered like a green ocean.

When the wind blew through the leaves, the huge ginkgo tree made a rustling sound, which to Qin Zhong and others sounded like the whispers of demons from hell.

Moreover, around this giant tree, more plants began to grow wildly. They entwined and competed with each other, covering the streets, houses, bridges, and even the corpses of zombies under green vegetation.

If things continue to develop in this way, I am afraid that in half a year, no, maybe just a few months, the entire Demon City will become a barren land with giant trees.

By then, in this apocalyptic city with giant trees, all traces of humanity will be erased bit by bit, and even those zombies that look hideous will gradually become nutrients for these plants.

Qin Zhong and others were shocked and helpless when they saw all this. The mutation of these plants not only changed the appearance of the city, but also brought greater challenges to human survival.

You know, Shanghai is a big city in China after all. It is impossible that all the millions of people died. There must be many survivors hiding in the streets and alleys of Shanghai.

But after that, these survivors not only have to face the threat of zombies, but also have to be careful of the dangers that may be hidden in the vegetation, and the possibility of survival becomes smaller and smaller.

……

Around noon, they passed by a farmers' market. Zhou Luosen suddenly said, "Brother Qin, it's a good time to take a break. I'll go in and see if there are any supplies."

"Row!"

Qin Zhong, who had taken over the driving, drove the car into the farmers' market. Several people divided the work into groups. Qin Zhong, Song Xiaoxuan, and Jiang Yiyi stayed behind, while Zhou Luosen and Wang Boshen entered the farmers' market to search for supplies.

After Zhou Luosen and Wang Boshen left, Qin Zhong took out two sets of alcohol stoves from the space, and also took out a lot of canned food and cooked food. He filled the small pot of the alcohol stove with water, and after boiling the water, he opened various canned vegetables and canned meats and threw them into the pot without thinking.

Looking at the steaming food, Song Xiaoxuan swallowed her saliva, hoping that Zhou Luosen and the others would come back soon.

"Hey! Where's Yiyi!"

After finishing his work, Qin Zhong suddenly realized that he hadn't seen Jiang Yiyi for a long time. He couldn't help but ask about Song Xiaoxuan out of curiosity. Song Xiaoxuan responded nonchalantly, "Let's play in the car!"

Qin Zhong walked towards the SUV parked on the side, but found that Jiang Yiyi was not in the car. Qin Zhong and Song Xiaoxuan both felt bad.

"Isn't this girl going to find Zhou Luosen herself?"

Seeing that Jiang Yiyi was not in the car, Song Xiaoxuan also became anxious and said, "Before, she wanted to go with Zhou Luosen, but they were afraid that something might happen to her, so they didn't let her go. Could she have gone there secretly?"

Qin Zhong became anxious when he heard this: "Xiaoxuan, get in the car first, be careful, I'll go look for her!"

Qin Zhong didn't know where Jiang Yiyi would go, so he could only look in the direction Zhou Luosen and the others had gone before. As a result, just after he went out a short distance, he saw Jiang Yiyi carrying a small bag and skipping out of the farmers' market.

Just a few steps behind her, there were more than twenty zombies following closely.

When Qin Zhong saw this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately pulled out his pistol, shouting, "Yiyi, run!", and the pistol started firing.

Seeing Qin Zhong shooting at the group of zombies, the gunshots seemed to scare Jiang Yiyi so much that she stood still. Soon, Qin Zhong and the group of zombies rushed to her side almost at the same time.

Looking at the group of zombies rushing towards him with their fangs and claws bared, Qin Zhong rushed forward and pulled her out from the group of zombies.

Qin Zhong threw the empty pistol and hit a zombie that was rushing towards him. The Tang sword appeared in his hand and swept across, cutting off the waists of three zombies.

"Bang bang bang!"

At this moment, a burst of gunfire was heard from the side. Zhou Luosen and Wang Boshen had turned back. When Wang Boshen saw this situation, sparks kept coming out of his automatic rifle, and zombies fell to the ground in all directions.

Zhou Luosen suddenly ran over, pulled Jiang Yiyi over, and carefully examined her hands and face. After finding that she was not injured, he hugged her in his arms, his eyes as if blood was about to spurt out.

"How is this going?"

Before Qin Zhong could speak, Jiang Yiyi raised the small cloth bag in her hand and said, "Uncle Sen, I wanted to find you. Look, this is the food I found!"

Qin Zhong also said at this time: "Brother Zhou, it's my fault. I didn't take good care of Yiyi. Fortunately, nothing happened!"

After hearing what Jiang Yiyi said, Zhou Luosen roughly understood what was going on. He looked at Qin Zhong apologetically and whispered, "Brother Qin, I'm sorry, I was impatient!"

Qin Zhong shrugged and said indifferently: "It doesn't matter!"

At this time, Wang Boshen said anxiously: "Stop chatting, come and help me quickly, I'm running out of bullets!" He pointed inside the farmers' market: "A lot of zombies have come out again! They must have been attracted by the gunshots!"

Qin Zhong looked at Zhou Luosen and said, "You take Yiyi back first. I will help Lao Wang clean up the zombies and will be back soon." Before he finished speaking, Qin Zhong rushed forward with a Tang sword in his hand.
