Apocalyptic waste

Feng Qisheng took him to the gymnasium. He was not knocked out like Qiao Yong and the others. He just recited it directly.Of course, because the clothes were too thin in the hot weather, many places on his body were burned by the corrosive mucus flowing out of the ulcerated pustules, which was unavoidable.Fortunately, he himself has awakened his abilities, his physique has greatly improved, and he healed quickly.

At that time, many half-humans had already gathered in the gymnasium, and they seemed to rely on the instinct of the remaining people to gather together.Seeing him, half of the people looked scared and hid, but they always liked to peep at him secretly in the dark.It took a long time for him to understand that they just wanted to get close to him, but they were afraid of frightening him.The same goes for the other survivors in the gym.It is precisely because of this performance that they cast a cowardly, gloomy and evil shadow.

Lin Daoru is not the first survivor to be taken to the gym.Before he came, there were already a group of survivors in the gymnasium, some were locals, and some escaped from other places and passed through Zhafeng to search for supplies.Half people still retain a little wisdom, and they don't go crazy when they smell popularity and blood like zombies. They don't eat people, but they are not interested in human food, so they didn't expect those survivors to eat. of.

The gymnasium is located in the bustling area of ​​the city, surrounded by thoroughfares, relatively, there are more zombies.The captured survivors were full of disgust and fear for the half-humans. After failing to escape and killing many people, they all stayed in the gymnasium obediently, and did not even dare to move around in the gymnasium.There was no food to eat, and he couldn't escape. When Lin Daoru came, people had already starved to death.

Lin Daoru brought a lot of food, and because of his old age and injury, he was robbed of it without warning.In the face of hunger and death, it is very easy for a person to become a beast.At that time, an old brother who was ten years younger than him was so hungry that he could not walk. He crawled up to him and talked to him a lot.

People from outside said that the government can’t be relied on, it’s like this everywhere, there are zombies everywhere, if you can get out of the city, you can go to the Changshi side, I heard that the army built a surviving village there. It is said that Zafeng is unlucky, there are zombies in other places, but there are many people who survived, and some people have evolved supernatural powers, just like the sci-fi TV show, as far as we Zafeng, living people can’t see it A few, and there are more weird people who are more ferocious and terrifying than zombies; they say that we are old, and we must leave the hope of living to the young...

Before he finished speaking, the old brother died, and he didn't even leave his name behind, let alone his past relatives to let people know.As for whether his last sentence was out of helpless self-deprecation, or the true spirit of selfless dedication, it is impossible to explore.

At that time, the weather was extremely hot, and within a day, the corpses began to emit a foul smell.The young adults who got the food regained some strength, came over and carried the corpse to the flower pond outside, dug a shallow hole and buried it.This is the best end.Before that, the dead would be piled up there, rotten to the point of maggots, and no one would take care of them, and in the end half of the people came to get them away in the dark.

Lin Daoru occasionally thought, maybe that old brother once practiced his own words with practical actions, so he got such respect.

The past cannot be tested, and Lin Daoru has no time to continue to investigate this question. If he loses food and water, if he does not do something, I believe that within two days, he will follow in the footsteps of that old brother due to his injury worsening.If there is no Qisheng, at his age, and he has no relatives or reasons, there is really no need to go through such a difficult end of the world, but Qisheng is still there, so he can't leave Qisheng and go alone.

So he left that place with support, the survivors probably thought he would not live long, and ignored him.But when he walked outside the gymnasium, Qisheng appeared.Qi Sheng was afraid of him, so he hid in the place where he passed, and followed him all the way.

He found a sponge cushion, tore it apart and tied it to his chest, arms and legs respectively, and after difficult negotiations, he finally let Qisheng understand and carried him to the hotel opposite the gymnasium.There, he found food, healed his injury, and returned to the gym.

Because of the relationship between praying for life, Lin Daoru is not as afraid of half-humans as other survivors who were taken into captivity.Having experienced the previous encounter, he didn't think about how to get along with other survivors. Instead, he found another place in the gymnasium to pack up and settle down.He took half of the food he brought back and secretly threw it to the survivors.His idea is very simple, he can help a little bit, as for more, they can only rely on themselves.

However, what he didn't expect was that half of the people saw his actions and were imitated, so the captivity became worthy of the name, saving many people from being starved to death.

Later, he only went out twice, once to find books, and once to get thick clothes and quilts when it was cold.For the rest of the time, Qisheng brought him food, and occasionally brought back books and clothes.Compared with other half-humans, Qi Sheng seems to be smarter. Although it takes a lot of thought in the process of communication, he can always understand his meaning in the end.

Lin Daoru thinks this is enough, at least he is still there.

"If human beings are willing to put in more thought, half-humans can actually be good partners and helpers for human beings." The old man said softly.The water in the glass had already been drunk to the bottom, he bent down, picked up the kettle, and poured another glass.Drinking water is actually secondary. I am getting older and have cold hands and feet. I always like to hold a cup of hot water in my hand to keep warm.

During the whole process of narration, whenever the word praying for life is mentioned, the half of the people behind the sofa where Lin Daoru is sitting will have a slight restlessness, as if they want to think about it, but they don't want to see other people.And at this time, Lin Daoru would turn around and say a few words to him in a very gentle tone, and calm him down.

This scene made Wei Dong and others, who had been under the psychological shadow of half-human persecution, a little unacceptable, but the anger and resentment that filled their hearts subconsciously dissipated a lot in this peaceful and warm atmosphere.

Qiao Yong habitually raised his hand to touch the top of his head. The original short inch had grown into a watermelon rind, which made him feel irritated and put his hand down again.As for the two mustaches that he was proud of that hadn't been repaired for a long time, he didn't even have the courage to touch them.

"Well... Mr. Lin, you are familiar with half-humans, see if you can tell them and let us go." He hesitated and said, regarding the matter of establishing friendly and peaceful diplomatic relations with half-humans that Lin Daoru said But nothing was mentioned.No energy, no time, and more importantly, the unpredictability of a half-human temper.It is impossible for them to think about these things before they find a stable living environment.

Lin Daoru sighed silently, did not continue to persuade, and he was also a little helpless for Qiao Yong's request, "I'm afraid I can't do anything about this matter. Qisheng is always with me, he will not kidnap people back, as for the other half Man, I can't get close." Even so, he put down his glass and stood up, "Let me try."

"Hey! Hey! Old Lin, don't worry, don't worry!" Qiao Yong remembered that half-humans and mutant beasts were blocked in the competition venue, so he hurriedly called Lin Daoru to stop.

Lin Daoru looked at him, said "ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh" with a clear face, then sat back again, picked up the cup, and drank water silently.

Qiao Yong wanted to explain at first, but when he saw him like this, he was speechless, so he could only smile embarrassingly.In normal times, maybe we can talk more about other things, but right now because there are many mutant beasts attacking, although the situation has not reached a critical moment, it is not too calm. Now that the matter is almost understood, we can be sure that the old man and his Half people are not in danger for the time being, so there is no need for them to stay here to waste time, so they got up and left.Of course, it is impossible to be completely unprepared, so one person is still left guarding the door.

The conversation was not long, only about half an hour. Ruan Feng and the others had already established a preliminary fortification outside, which was being reinforced at this time.In order to save time and abilities, and to concentrate the defensive force, the corridor around the entire gymnasium on the first floor was cut off, leaving only the guest entrance and exit section, which includes the athlete lounge, library and reference room, conference room, and luxurious VIP rooms. Hall, guest lounge and other rooms, as well as stair passages and elevator shafts leading to the basement floor.

Except for Ruan Feng and the others who were strengthening the defense, the rest relaxed, but still guarded the weak defense separately.Everyone split open the wooden cabinet they found, and lit a fire in the corridor to illuminate it. Because there are rooms on both sides of the corridor, as long as the door is closed, there is no need to worry about the light leaking outside.

When Qiao Yong and Wei Dong came out, except for Wei Dong's close subordinates who greeted them, more people just watched indifferently. After the danger passed temporarily, these people returned to their usual numbness and lifelessness.Even the person who was saved by Qiao Yong was the same, and he didn't show the slightest gratitude or gratitude for it.

Six people did not escape.However, no one felt regretful or sad. In the last days, human life is like a waste of time. No one can guarantee whether it will be his turn in the next moment. He really doesn't have the energy to worry about the people who meet by chance.

"A big guy came outside and was slaughtering other mutant beasts." At this time, He San quietly exited from an athlete's lounge and said to everyone.At the end, I couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's so cruel!"

At this time, someone from another room also opened the door a thin crack, got out, and then quickly closed the door, turned around and heard He San's words, and nodded repeatedly.

"In the blink of an eye, it killed the two mutant beasts." It turned out that he had seen it too, and was frightened, afraid that the thing would break in, so he withdrew to warn others, but he didn't expect someone to be ahead of him.

The news brought by the two cheered up the lazy people around, only those who were far away, because they didn't hear clearly, were not interested in coming to inquire, and they still looked indifferent to everything.

"Whatever should be done." Wei Dong shouted to those who wanted to go and have a look, the more they couldn't be messed up at this time, there are powerful guys here, so it's hard to guarantee that there won't be any other directions.

What's interesting is that those people didn't know whether it was because they were afraid of Weidong, or because they were not very curious. After being stopped, they honestly returned to their original place. There was not even a trace of dissatisfaction on their faces. Much more energetic than before.

Qiao Yong and Wei Dong followed He San into the lounge, and the other person who came out to report did not dare to go back by himself, so he also followed.

Lu Jun and Liu Xia were inside, and when they heard the sound of the door opening, they just looked back and then turned their attention to the corner of the raised curtain.

"What's the situation?" Qiao Yong walked over, pushed Liu Xia's head away and looked out, but it was pitch black outside, and nothing was seen.

Wei Dong was not that familiar with them, so he walked to the other side of the window, raised the curtains and observed silently.

"There were a lot of mutated beasts wandering around outside before, and most of them were slaughtered by that thing." Liu Xia said in a low voice, "Pay attention to the sound." In such darkness, it is impossible to capture too much useful information with the eyes alone. of.

The lounge fell silent, and the sound of fighting and biting mutant beasts outside came in.I don't know if it was cut corners during the construction, or there was a problem with the original design. The sound insulation effect of the room is very average. Apart from the shrill and sharp roar of the mutant beast, you can even hear the sound of claws scratching the flesh and blood splattering. Hearing it made people's scalp go numb, and their hearts panicked.

After a while, the eyes of the mutant beast outside went out again, and the rest began to flee in a panic. Qiao Yong and Weidong finally saw the existence of that big guy.A vague black shadow, about two and a half to three meters in size, because of the problem of light and angle, it is impossible to give an accurate judgment.Its appearance is somewhat human-like, but such thick muscles and terrifyingly huge claws are not what humans can have.

"It doesn't want to kill other mutant beasts, and then slowly enjoy us?" someone suddenly said.

Eat alone!These three words popped up in the minds of everyone at the same time, and they shuddered suddenly.At this moment, the big guy didn't know if he heard their voices, but he turned his head and looked over, with a chill in his dark eyes.

Everyone was silent and did not dare to move.

-

And just when Qiao Yong and the others were worried about whether the ferocious beast would break through the window, Li Muran had already found them.

It turned out that when the earthquake happened, Zhang Yi and the others also felt it where they were. They thought it was an earthquake and were almost in a dilemma.Who would have thought that Li Muran would use his ability tentatively, hey, it works.It was a pleasant surprise.Worried that this situation was only temporary, and she didn't care about the night, she immediately started searching for her spiritual power.

When she thought about it, Qiao Yong and the others didn't have many people, as long as you hurry up, she can take everyone out of the city in less than an hour.Who knows, when she found Qiao Yong and the others, she realized that she thought things too simply.

"I saw Boss Qiao..." she said to the others, with a strange expression on her face, "their situation is not good." She saw not only Qiao Yong and others, but also Song Yan.She couldn't figure out how Song Yan could appear there.It can't be to go to her, it's too far away.

"What's the situation?" Everyone was in the lobby. Because of the vibration problem before, they didn't dare to sleep too deeply. Hearing her words, not only Zhang Yi and Nan Shao who were watching the night heard it, but even those who fell asleep opened their eyes to support themselves. Standing up, Xiong Hua and the other five immediately surrounded him.

"They're in the gymnasium about [-] to [-] kilometers away from here. Chief Qiao and Liu Xia are there. I haven't seen the other people, so I'm not sure if there is any reduction in staff." In the latter sentence, Li Muran was waiting for Xiong Hua. He stared at it with eager anticipation, and added it unconsciously.She took Zhang Ruiyang and got separated from everyone during the rat disaster in Ziyun County, and it was normal not to know Chen Changchun and others who joined later.

"There are six people in total. They went to six people, you count and see if there are six people?" Xiong Hua said quickly.

Li Muran paused, then replied flatly: "There are more than six people."

"What?" Xiong Hua was a little confused.

"I said, there are more than six people with Qiao Boss." Li Muran slightly emphasized his tone. "There are six to seventy people over there."

Everyone gasped in surprise, and before they could ask any questions, they heard her continue: "Besides, there are hundreds of people in the gymnasium that look like people..." She wasn't quite sure what it was .people?Mutated zombies?Or humanoids?

So after a short thought, he uttered two words rather awkwardly, "something." It was completely temporary and did not contain any derogatory meaning.

"A flying mutated centipede, a large mutated minotaur, and a dozen smaller mutated beasts. There are also about a hundred mutated beasts gathered around the gymnasium." She described everything she saw in one breath out.As for Song Yan who was also there, she hesitated for a while, and was about to speak out, but was interrupted by everyone who thought she had finished speaking.

"Did you run into a survivor colony?"

"How are they, are they in danger?"

"Something that looks like a person? What is that? Can you be more specific?"

"Why are there so many mutant beasts?"

"It's all in the gym? Is it fucked up?"

Several people spoke at the same time, and then they seemed to realize something, and then closed their mouths at the same time, you look at me, I look at you, after a moment of silence, Zhang Yi asked for everyone: "Muran, is Mr. Qiao in a hurry?" ?”

"It's okay." Li Muran breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't hear everyone talking together just now, and she didn't know which question to answer first. "They are hiding on the other side, not with those mutated creatures. And now that the mutated beasts are fighting with those human-like things, they can't take care of them for the time being."

Hearing this, everyone felt relieved.

"Is it a mutant zombie?" Zhang Yi asked the second question.

Li Muran knew that he was referring to those humanoid creatures, and shook his head, "I can't be sure. They are all similar in appearance, very flexible, able to attach to walls and roofs and slide, their bodies are soft, and covered with pustules... Those pustules The water seems to be corrosive." She answered while observing carefully.

"It sounds very similar." Xiong Hua said, grinning, showing an expression of extreme pain, "There are so many things, I'm afraid things will be a little tricky."

In fact, he was not the only one who thought this way, after hearing Li Muran's description, other people also felt that there was a high possibility that those things were mutated zombies.Thinking about the number again, it's really hard to relax.

Zhang Yi didn't get too entangled in this matter, but instead asked about the layout of the gymnasium, the locations of Qiao Yong and the mutant beasts and humanoids, how the survivors were defending, and what mutant beasts were around the gymnasium Mutated plants and buildings, if you take dozens of people to escape, which route can be taken is faster and safer, so that everyone has a clear understanding of the situation over there, so that they will not be in a hurry after passing.At the end, I suddenly asked a question.

"How far is this from the entrance we came in?"

Li Muran glanced at him in surprise. He didn't know if he asked casually, or was too sensitive to notice something, and immediately replied honestly: "It's very far." It's much farther than the distance they have traveled before, so far away. She wondered if it was her supernatural power that exploded uncontrollably, otherwise, how could a group of people have crossed a distance of nearly twenty kilometers out of thin air.

Zhang Yi noticed her expression, nodded, he had an idea in his mind, and didn't ask again, "Let's take everyone there."

Li Muran is really not sure about his ability. He wanted to say that he should try it first to see whether it is normal when using it, and then lead others, but Zhang Yi and Shi Pengsan disagreed. First, they felt that there was no need to waste a use of the ability. Chances are, it's impossible for her to take the risk alone as a girl.

Fortunately, this kind of worry was completely superfluous, Li Muran made two trips, and brought the twelve people to the gymnasium smoothly without any setbacks.Seeing the person suddenly appearing in front of him, Qiao Yong was really taken aback. He let out two ouches, and was afraid of startling the strange beasts outside, so he quickly shut his mouth and signaled everyone to follow him to the corridor.And it was not only him and other people in the gym who were frightened, but also Xiong Hua and the other five.

Along the way, through the conversations between Li Muran and other people, they had vague guesses about her abilities, but when the guesses turned into reality, they would still be shocked.It is really that this ability is too practical, even if it is difficult to advance, it can still greatly improve the survival rate of her teammates.

"Shi San, you're back, haha... Sister Muran is back too, haha... Then Xiao Yangyang must be back too. Good! Good! They're all back! Hahahaha..."

When he came to the corridor, Qiao Yong didn't have to restrain himself anymore, he was so happy that he touched his head and rubbed his hands together, and it took him a long time to remember to stride forward and give Shi San a warm and tight hug.As for the others, except for Muran, he selectively ignored them.

Shi Pengsan saw that there was nothing wrong with him except for his sloppy appearance. His original anxious mood calmed down, and he returned to his usual facial paralysis. He didn't feel like reuniting after a long time.

"What's going on here?" Zhang Yi asked directly without wasting time reminiscing.

However, Nan Shao felt something, retreated to the lounge, lifted the curtains and looked out.After a while, he came out, squinting at Li Muran, who seemed to be a little restless, with a meaningful expression.Li Muran didn't notice at all, she was paying attention to the situation outside with her mental strength, ready to find a suitable time to go out and say hello to Song Yan.

"We came in to look for food the day before yesterday, because we were in a hurry to go back. We didn't intend to go too deep. Who knew that the mutated plant forest outside the city was too big. When we completely passed through, it would be dark..."

Because the matter was too complicated, Qiao Yong had to start from the beginning.Fortunately, the situation is not critical right now, and there are more powerful helpers, so there is no need to worry about running out of time.On the other side, Wei Dong and others who haven't been introduced for the time being are looking enviously at the group of people who suddenly appeared, looking at their faces, clothes, and spirits, and looking at their own side, it is simply a heaven. , one underground, if you can escape successfully, you must ask the other party if they will accept you.Of course, they focused all their attention on the group of people from Longren, and the downcast Xiong Hua and others were automatically ignored.
