Apocalyptic waste

There were several corpses lying in the yard, some were killed just now, and some were left over from before.Li Muran and Ning Wu walked behind. After entering the courtyard and taking a few steps, Ning Wu suddenly broke free from Li Muran's hand, ran back and bolted the courtyard door, holding something tightly against it.

Li Muran watched his actions quietly. When Ning Wu turned around, he noticed her gaze. He raised his hand and scratched the back of his chest embarrassingly, and explained in a low voice: "This way...be safe..." Obviously he has learned How to protect yourself.

Song Yan, who was standing still under the eaves because of his actions, continued to walk forward and entered the house first.Li Muran waited for Ning Wu to come over before pulling him forward again.

"Are you alone? Where are Mom and Xiuxiu Lingling? Is there anyone else alive?" She asked as she walked.

"Dead." Ning Wu replied, paused, and repeated again: "All are dead... Dad, Mom... Second Sister, Third Sister... There are many people who have died and turned into zombies." Said When he said these words, there was no sadness or other emotions on his face, but numbness.

Li Muran's heart tightened, and he subconsciously said, "Only you..."

Ning Wu nodded, "I'm the only one left."

While talking, the two also entered the house.The room is not too messy, Song Yan, who obviously came in first, has already tidied up a little bit, the sofa is where the sofa should be, and the tables, chairs and benches are also neatly arranged, but the dust is thickly spread.

"You guys are talking here, I'll boil water for him to take a bath." Song Yan moved a chair to the side and said to Li Muran.For him who has a cleanliness habit, it is really hard to bear to be in the same room with a dirty and smelly person, let alone chatting.Even though the inconvenience of the apocalypse has changed him a lot, Ning Wu is really too dirty and smells too bad, if he stays with him for a long time, his nose will fail.In other words, Li Muran could bear it.

"Okay... okay." Li Muran was a little absent-minded. If it was normal, she would not dare to ask Song Yan to boil water for her brother, but at this time because her mind was still on other things, she agreed in a daze.

Ning Wu's body was dirty to a certain extent, even worse than Li Muran at the beginning of the last days, so there was nothing to dislike the dust in the room. Li Muran pulled him to sit on the sofa, and then asked him if he was hungry. Hungry or cold.

"Sister, I'm not hungry. There's...a lot of food here." Ning Wu's speech gradually became smoother, and his voice became less hoarse. "It's not cold, there are cotton clothes to wear." Speaking of this, he paused, looked in the direction of the kitchen secretly, and then begged Li Muran in a low voice: "Sister, help me tell that uncle... Let me tell you, I don't... take a bath, I will... be discovered by zombies after taking a bath." It seemed that he was a little scared of Song Yan.

Hearing the word uncle, Li Muran's scalp went numb, and he subconsciously looked into the kitchen.I don't want Song Yan to come out with a big bucket, he should be preparing to fill the snow water.When the two looked at each other, she immediately showed a flattering smile, thinking to herself that he probably didn't hear it.

Song Yan glanced at her expressionlessly, and walked out without stopping.

"Don't call him uncle." Li Muran was a little unsure if he was angry, so he could only whisper to Ning Wu nervously.

"What do you want to call it?" Ning Wu didn't insist, just asked.

"Call...call..." Li Muran was stumped, it would be hard for Ning Wu to call Brother Song Yan, she believed that Ning Wu would call without any psychological barriers, but it was always a bit strange, the age difference was too big .But follow her to call Director Song, Mr. Song?Song Yan will definitely be angry.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Ning Wu said suddenly.

Li Muran was caught off guard by the question, and was inexplicably shy in front of his younger brother, but he still nodded and tried his best to stiffen his facial expression so that his face wouldn't get hot.

Ning Wu didn't notice her embarrassment, so he took it for granted: "Then I'll call him brother-in-law."

Li Muran's face turned red uncontrollably this time, and hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Then...that's not..." Is it too early to call brother-in-law now?Although the relationship between the two is quite close, it seems that they haven't reached that point yet, and it seems a little too eager to call someone like this right now.

Unexpectedly, she heard Song Yan's cough coming from the door before she could utter her denial, and she looked over in embarrassment, but she didn't expect to see a smile on that face that had been serious for a long time.Generally speaking, the more severe people smile, the warmer and more pleasant they feel, so she suddenly forgot what she wanted to say, just stared blankly at his smile, and involuntarily raised the corners of her lips, feeling a lot more relaxed.

"Brother-in-law!" Ning Wu was even more straightforward, calling out directly.

"Well, dear." The smile on Song Yan's face deepened, and he actually agreed, and then he carried a bucket of snow that was pressed firmly and sharply into the kitchen.

Hearing the yelling and answering of the two, Li Muran couldn't help but raised his hand and pressed it on his forehead, half covering his eyes with his palm, feeling a deep sense of helplessness, and a little funny, but seemed to be faintly happy.

"Sister, tell brother-in-law that I don't take a bath." At this moment, Ning Wu's voice rang in her ears again, distracting her a little embarrassment.

Li Muran coughed, put down his hands, and said reassuringly, "It's okay, it's okay to wash up, we still have a lot of people, so we're not afraid of zombies." Back in the queue, it doesn't matter if it smells too bad, after all, we have to sit in the same carriage.She can bear it, others may not be able to bear it, just like Song Yan.

Ning Wu thought about it, and finally chose to trust his sister. "Okay then." Of course, such an easy compromise is also related to the fact that he secretly saw Song Yan's combat power in the dark.

Then, Li Muran asked about what happened here, and Ning Wu answered honestly.

It turned out that their family survived at the beginning of the last days. Ning Wu and his two older sisters were picked up from school by their parents, managed to escape from the city, and came back here.This is actually a very rare thing, even if Li Muran hears it now, he feels very lucky.Because since she started fleeing, until now, she has never seen a whole family alive.Of course, Han Ling doesn't count. When we first met, we didn't meet Han Ling's parents, and it's the same now.

Ning Wu's father had awakened the metal ability. Although his mother and siblings hadn't turned into zombies, they hadn't awakened either.After returning to the countryside, the old man in the family turned into a zombie.His father was also cruel, and directly killed the zombie that Ning Wu's grandma turned into.Rural households usually store some grain and dried vegetables, not to mention that they have just harvested summer grain and haven't sold it yet, so there is really no shortage of food.

Ever since Wuchaping lost its position as a traffic hub, it has become very deserted. Most of the people staying here are old people and children, and most of the young and middle-aged people go out to work, so the population is very small.Even if they all turn into zombies, there are not many, and the fighting power is not strong.The most important thing is that this place is deserted, there are not many vehicles passing by, and naturally there are not many zombies pouring in.

After two days of panic, Ning Wu's father calmed down, prepared for danger in times of peace, and began to contact the surviving people, clean up the zombies in the village, and build a wall for defense.At that time, only 30 people survived in the village, and the number of zombies was ten times that number.Even this is better than many other places. There are even places where whole villages die. Only one or two people can survive, and finally die because they cannot escape.Of course, this figure is far worse than that of Sanjia Village.But the people in Sanjia Village have all practiced martial arts from childhood to old age, and they are physically strong, which is naturally not comparable to ordinary old and weak women and children.

At that time, it was not an easy task for two or thirty people to clean up two or three hundred zombies. Whether it was psychological fear or the threat of corpse poison, it was an obstacle in front of the survivors, not to mention that people had nothing to do. Battle experience and courage.But fortunately not all the zombies are outside, no, it should be said that there are only a very small number of zombies on the street, some are locked in the courtyard and the house, and more zombies are wandering in the ground.Because the division was relatively scattered, they were able to muster up the courage to clean up.Later, Sanchaping people who had settled outside came back one after another, bringing some non-local relatives and friends with them, and finally the population reached more than 30, which is not a small force.

Because Ning Wu's father was the one who first called on everyone to kill zombies and build walls, and later showed great strength, so he naturally became the leader of the village.

For the occasional large trucks that dare not take the high speed, there are small shops and small restaurants in the village, so there is no shortage of salt and sugar.As for dried food and vegetables, in addition to the freshly harvested wheat and potatoes, there are also dried vegetables such as millet, corn, and sweet potato. Collected together, it is enough for three hundred people to eat for two or three years.It can be said that at the beginning of the end of the world, this small village is more stable than most places, and the people here are more secure than those who are trapped at home by zombies, worrying about food and water, and fleeing on the road without knowing where to go. The survivors there are much happier.

At least, it was happy for the first ten days, before a group of survivors who escaped from the city arrived.

There are not many survivors in this group, only a dozen or so, and their strength is also very ordinary.But among the group was a woman.

"Dressed up like an old witch, it's so ugly." Ning Wu described that woman in this way, perhaps because of the different aesthetics of children and adults, or perhaps out of hatred in his heart.

From the eyes of grown men, that woman may not be particularly beautiful, but she is full of charm, and she is more attractive to them than many young and beautiful girls.This woman is not an Awakened.

In the last days, if a woman who is not an awakened person wants to survive and live a better life, the most labor-saving way is to rely on the strong.This woman figured it out before anyone else.It was precisely because of this that after arriving at Wuchaping, she set her sights on Ning Wu's father.

Ning Wu's father wasn't a good guy in the first place, as soon as he teased him on one side, he immediately entangled him like a dog on the other side, so the two got entangled like a raging fire.Because of the end times, there is no need to cover up at all.

Children of this age don't know anything. Ning Wu is young, but he also knows that having a third party between his parents will destroy their happy family.For this reason, he who was raised arrogantly made a lot of troubles, but the result was that his father, who always regarded him as an eyeball, beat him up because of that woman.For this reason, he hated that woman so much that he couldn't help but swear at her until now.It wasn't until Song Yan's warning cough came from the kitchen that he stopped cursing and continued.

Li Muran has always known that his younger brother is good at swearing.She brought him up until he was five years old. After going to college, he didn't care about living in school. When he went back, the child changed a lot. Not only was he full of foul language, he was also domineering. He even treated her as a maid who was very close to her sister. Treat it the same way.At that time, Li Muran was a little disappointed, but not very disappointed, because her two younger sisters changed almost in the same way.

Probably because her mother never took her seriously, maybe it was because the man hated her very much and showed it undisguisedly in his daily life, which indirectly affected the three outlooks on life and values. child.As for that man, don't mention it.It is precisely because of this that she really has nothing to miss about that "family", and her feelings for her three younger siblings are even more contradictory.After all, it was brought here with one hand, so how could she have no feelings, that's why she cared more about their attitudes. She knew that they couldn't be blamed entirely, but she couldn't help but feel chilled, so she simply ignored them.

These are all the past. When the world is destroyed and people are almost dead, there is nothing to worry about anymore.It's just that hearing his younger brother's scolding made Li Muran sigh with emotion and finally regained some familiarity, but it wasn't too annoying.

"Mama must be crazy?" she asked.With how much mother cares about that man, maybe she will endure it, just like every time that man went out to find other women in the past, and then vented by smashing things and tearing clothes when no one was in private, maybe even talking to the neighbors Quarrel and fight, or put the fire on her head.In her absence, maybe it won't happen to her younger siblings. You must know that the mother is still very good to her three young children.

It was a casual sentence, but who knew that Ning Wu was stunned when he heard it, his face was too dirty to see the change of expression, but a trace of extremely complicated emotions flashed in those eyes, which was not at all like that of this age. children can have.

"Yes, she's crazy." He nodded, and then nodded twice, which was enough to see how emotionally he felt when he heard this question.

Not to mention that Ning Wu's mother was very worried about that man, she could even offer her own daughter with both hands, even ordinary couples would not be able to bear such a thing.At the beginning, she still endured it, thinking that the man would come back after stealing the sex like before, after all, there are children in the family.Who knew that she met a powerful woman this time, who directly fascinated her man, a couple of dogs and men hooked up all day long, as if they were glued together, in front of her openly Be affectionate, totally pretending she doesn't exist.Finally, she couldn't bear the jealousy and anger that filled her heart, and she complained to the man a few times, only to get a fat beating in exchange.

If it was just like this, Ning Wu's mother would still think about begging the man to change his mind, but who knows that since then, the two of them have become more unscrupulous in front of her, and the woman simply moved into their house, as if she was the hostess.

On the day when the incident happened, the two women did not know why, and another war broke out. Of course, Ning Wu's father still favored Xinhuan.At that time, there were many empty houses in the village, and it was hot, so there was no need to worry about having no place to live, it was just embarrassing.

A year ago, Ning Wu really didn't understand anything, and he wasn't too worried about his mother, or that there were too many quarrels like this, and he was used to it.Instead, the two sisters followed their mother.He didn't feel anything, because they were all in the village, and he could see them anytime he wanted, and he felt that they would move back in two days.

"Because of the three of them fighting that day, I didn't have dinner. I woke up hungry in the middle of the night, so I quietly got up to find something to eat." Ning Wu said.

Because of the surrounding walls and the vigil, and the hot weather, many people opened their yard doors, and some of the chairs and beds were directly placed on the street, so Ning Wu was not afraid at all.

At that time, more than 300 survivors in the whole village ate big pot meals, food and water were distributed uniformly every day, and private people did not open fire.The place to cook is in the small restaurant at the head of the village. The restaurant has been open for hundreds of years before the end of the world. There are several large stoves that can be used for burning coal and firewood. There is also a large pot that can cook meals for many people at one time.Of course, these things are very old, and they were equipped when Wuchaping still had a market.Later, there were no collections, and they were abandoned.There will not be too many drivers passing by, and it can be solved in a small pot for cooking.I don't want to think that after the end of the world, those old objects that have been repaired for decades will come in handy again.

Ning Wu went to this place.He hoped to find something to eat inside.

However, when he managed to find a place in the dark around the summer bed and chairs on the road, he found that the doors and windows were closed.One-third of the various grains and vegetables collected by the whole village are stored here, so they are guarded at night.Of course, unlike the night guards at the gate of the wall at the entrance of the village, who have to keep their eyes open all night and pay attention to the movement outside, the guards here can sleep.

Ning Wu groped outside the old restaurant for a long time, but he couldn't find a way to get in. He didn't dare to knock on the door in the middle of the night, so he could only squat down by the door rubbing his stomach that was screaming from hunger.He didn't plan to go back, anyway, it was very hot, and the village was safe enough, even if he slept outside, it would be fine.He was going to stay here, and be the first to rush in when the door opened at dawn.Maybe there is no need to wait for the door to open, as long as the person inside gets up, he can ask the other party to give him a stutter first.

Unexpectedly, when he was squatting there drowsy, he heard someone approaching.He was startled at first, thinking it was some kind of ghost, and held his breath, not daring to make a sound. Then he realized that there was a wall around here, and the zombies outside couldn't get in, so he thought that the other party was just as hungry as him and woke up looking for something to eat. , I felt a secret joy in my heart, even looking forward to it.If the other party calls the door, he can follow suit.

However, the man did not stop when he passed the restaurant, but continued to walk towards the entrance of the village.The man walked cautiously, as if afraid of being discovered by others.

Ning Wu still couldn't explain why his ears were so good at that time.Probably hungry, he thought.In short, although it was so dark that he couldn't see his fingers when he stretched out his hand, he could still clearly perceive the direction that person was going and how careful he was.

Maybe it was out of curiosity, maybe it was because he finally found a person who was awake and wanted to ask him to help him get something to eat, but he actually got up and followed that person quietly.

In order to see the movement outside, two not-so-bright lanterns were hung high at the entrance of the village, and each lantern was covered with a candle.When that person walked into the range that the light could illuminate, Ning Wu suddenly discovered that the person turned out to be his mother.

He was quite happy, and wanted to run up, but suddenly saw the ax in his mother's hand, and was frightened.In the middle of the night, anyone wandering outside with an ax is quite scary.

He didn't dare to follow, instead he shrank into the darkness and hid behind the low wall under the eaves of a nearby house.

"Mom's appearance is too frightening, I'm afraid." Speaking of this, Ning Wu subconsciously grabbed Li Muran's sleeves and leaned closer to her.From this we can see the fear in his heart at that time.

Li Muran was not too dirty, he stroked his head comfortingly, and asked suspiciously: "What is she doing so late?" He was still holding an axe.Even if you want to trouble the couple, you should go in the direction of home.Do you want to leave the village?Thinking of this, she shook her head, feeling that her mother didn't seem to have the courage.

It may be because these words reminded of some terrible picture, Ning Wu's face changed drastically, and his thin body trembled uncontrollably. put them all in."

At that time, there were no mutated zombies, and with tall and strong walls, ordinary zombies couldn't get in at all.What's more, a deep ditch was dug around the village, and a suspension bridge was used to enter and exit. The zombies fell into the ditch before they reached the wall.Every one or two days, the village would send people to kill the zombies that fell into the ditch, and then salvage them and burn them to prevent the ditch from being filled.It can be said that this village is indeed very safe.

It was precisely because of this that the person on duty at night said that he could not sleep all night, and there were two people who came in shifts, one guarding the upper night and the other guarding the next night.But the real guards still can't help dozing off, after all, it's hot, the night is dark, and no one talks, it's really hard.

So when Ning Wu's mother walked over, the night watchman was sitting there curled up against the wall, snoring.When she raised the ax high and was about to fall, he opened his eyes vigilantly.

It's just late.He only had time to let out a short, dull, unwilling and even more puzzled roar before his neck was chopped off.The voice was too short and vaguely sleepy, mixed with the roar of the zombies outside the wall, it didn't attract anyone's attention at all.

Ning Wu said that it was the first time he saw his mother chopping someone with an axe. She had never killed a zombie before, so it was hard to say whether it was luck or some other reason that she could chop so cleanly.

Even so, she was still worried that the man would not die, so she slashed him a few more times before giving up.Ning Wu still remembers the scene of blood spurting under the candlelight, and remembers how his mother's swollen and deformed face, which was swollen and deformed during the day, was smeared with bright red blood and looked hideous like a ghost when she raised her head to look at the street.

He was so scared that he peed all over, and he didn't even dare to move. Even after living alone and facing zombies for so long, he was still very scared when he thought of his mother's appearance at that time.Then he watched helplessly as she opened the gate, cut the rope that tied the suspension bridge, and left the whole village open to the zombies without any barriers.

There are zombies around the village, and there are a lot of them.These zombies were not from the village, but some people brought them back when they returned to the village, and those who fled came to the village.The people in the village are very afraid of zombies. Apart from cleaning up the zombies in the village, they hardly care about the zombies around the village. They just wait for them to fall into the pit before cleaning them up, and hope to rely on this method to solve all the zombies .

It cannot be said that their approach is wrong. After all, they have no shortage of food, no need to go out to collect supplies, and naturally there is no need to take the risk of cleaning up the zombies outside the wall.So in this dark and sultry night, these zombies were let in and became the cause of their downfall.

"Sister, tell me, why did she do that? Why did mother do that?" Ning Wu tightly grasped Li Muran's hand, and asked hoarsely in bewilderment. For the first time since we met, his face showed an expression of ready to cry.It's been a year and he still can't figure it out.

Li Muran opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.No matter what she thinks, she can't imagine that things will develop like this. You must know that there are three children and many innocent people in the village. How could Ning Wu's mother have the heart and dare to do this?Even if she hated the dog couple, it would be understandable for her to hack the door directly with an axe. How could she hate so much that the whole village, including her own children, would be buried with her.

Ning Wu was not too disappointed when he didn't get an answer from his sister, he just choked up a few times, held back his tears, and continued talking.

Ning Wu's mother was the first person in the village to be buried in the mouth of the zombies, and the second was another person on night duty who was awakened by the sound of the suspension bridge falling to check the situation.The screams finally woke up the whole village, but it was already too late.

Ning Wu took a lot of effort to move his frightened and stiff body, and fled into the window of the old restaurant not far away before the zombies caught up.The guard of the old restaurant also heard the sound and opened the window to check the situation, so he just gave him a hand. After realizing that it was a zombie rushing into the village, he immediately closed the window again, and at the same time pushed a lot of things behind the door and window.

There were screams, curses, and cries in the street one after another, and a large and a small huddled in the restaurant trembling with kitchen knives.But in the end they survived and lived until dawn.

After dawn, the streets of the village were full of zombies, and the doors of restaurants were knocked and knocked, as if they would fall apart at any moment.There were others in the village who survived, but not many, and most of them escaped death because they closed the yard door at night when they went to sleep.But these people have nothing to eat or drink, so they can only find a way to come to the restaurant.In the end, only ten people arrived alive, and the others collapsed on the road.

Among the ten people, three were injured, and these three turned into zombies in the end.Therefore, the people who finally gathered in the restaurant, counting Ning Wu and the person guarding the restaurant, were only nine in total.As for whether there are other living people, they don't know.

As for Ning Wu's father, as well as that woman, it is said that they died that night.It can be said that Ning Wu's mother's goal has been achieved, but she is accompanied by her two daughters, her own life, and the lives of more innocent people.
