Apocalyptic waste

"Cough...cough cough...that's my little brother." At this time, Lan Lan changed back to the previous tone, with a little timidity, she looked at Zhang Yi and explained embarrassedly: "Uncle, we are a family I came here together, my brother, sister, brother, and mother..."

Hearing this, Zhang Yi looked around unconsciously, and then looked at Nanshao questioningly.Nan Shao shook his head, indicating that there was no one else around.

"Although my younger brother is young, he is actually very sensible. He just speaks irritatingly. Don't mind..." The girl's apology came from her ears, but before she finished speaking, it suddenly changed into what she called before. The younger brother's tone.

"What's wrong with being angry? Do you want me to be as coquettish as you? Big brother and big sister didn't come back those days. If I hadn't gone to find food, you would have starved to death long ago? I'm not wrong, a lot of us are here Here, he can't even see, isn't it because of bad eyesight?" Full of youthful recklessness and conceit.

"Lan Xin, shut up!" Just after she finished speaking, her tone changed again, becoming sharper and sharper.

"Oh. If you don't say it, don't say it!" Immediately afterwards, her stern expression relaxed, and she regained her childishness. She pouted and said reluctantly, but turned her head and complained: "Mom, big brother is killing me!"

"Hey, listen to your elder brother." When she said this, she was like a gentle and weak middle-aged woman in both tone and demeanor.

So, the so-called family is actually you alone, right?

Zhang Yi was a little dumbfounded. Seeing Lan Lan talking to himself, playing the role of people of different personalities and ages, it felt as if there was a real family arguing in front of him.It's just that when all this is played by a beautiful girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, especially at such a time and such a place, it is unavoidably creepy.

Zhang Ruiyang had unconsciously held his breath, his eyes were wide open, and his fear could not be concealed.Nan Shao took another two steps this way.

"Uncle, thank you...you saved us." After a turmoil, Lan Lan's attention finally returned to Zhang Yi, and her tone returned to normal, showing a little timidity.

Zhang Yi opened his mouth, and didn't know how to reply for a moment, but felt that everything in front of him was so absurd and weird.

"Without that...that gentleman, our whole family would be eaten by bugs." Lan Lan sneaked a sneaky glance at Nanshao carefully, and quickly looked away in fear.He paused for a while, and waited for the fear in his heart to subside a little, before asking again: "By the way, uncle, where are you from and where are you going? Isn't it very dangerous outside, the three of you... cough cough... the three of you How dare you walk around? Do you have other companions?" A series of questions popped up like machine guns, and it seemed that she was quite curious.

"We are people from the Hope Base, and we have to go to the Imperial Capital Base for business." Although Zhang Yi was still awkward in his heart, he replied calmly.

"Base? Are there many refuge bases built outside?" Lan Lan was surprised to hear what he said, and asked quickly.

"Yes, as far as I know, Yunzhou has two bases, one is our hope base, and the other is Yunzhou base near Longren City. Baixia has a large base with more than 20 people. In addition to these, there should be other bases, because the information exchange is not convenient at the moment, so the specific situation is not clear." Thinking about how to deal with the situation in front of him, Zhang Yi decided to Say something that doesn't matter, and at the same time, you can grasp more information through small talk.

Lan Lan's injury can no longer be dealt with, of course she is not seriously injured, and there is nothing to deal with.

"It's great, so many people survived. I thought we were the only ones left." Lan Lan's eyes lit up, as if she was very happy to hear the news.

"Your family?" Zhang Yi sensitively captured the important information revealed in this sentence.There is only one family left, and the whole family is split from the same person. Does that mean that the little girl in front of me is actually the only one in this area.If this is the case, with the clumsy reaction she showed before, how did she survive?

"Yeah, we are the only family here." Lan Lan replied, and her mood was obviously depressed when she said this. "Cough cough cough cough... At the beginning of the end of the world, there were still several families in the community who survived, and some wanted to leave... cough cough... but they were eaten by zombies before leaving the community. After that, no one Dare to run again, everyone is hiding in their own homes, and only after a while will they go out to find food and water."

"But it would be very dangerous to go out to find food. At that time, there were zombies everywhere... ahem... Zombies were everywhere, and they would die if they were surrounded. Even if they escaped, if they were injured, it would be a dead end. When you are young, you will turn into zombies and hurt people around you. There is a family here because of this, and the whole family is gone."

"But what can I do...cough...cough cough...if you don't go out, you will starve to death when you run out of food at home. There are supermarkets and restaurants in the community. There are a lot of food in these places, and the residents in the community also have a lot of food. At least there are some food reserves, and there are not many people who survived... Ahem... Not many, it is enough to eat for a long time. It is a pity that they disappeared one by one, and finally only our family is left. Everyone wants to wait The government sent people to rescue us, but until now there has been no one."

Having said so much, Lan Lan's throat seemed to be more uncomfortable. She covered her mouth and coughed for a while, then raised her head, looked at Zhang Yi seriously, and asked, "Uncle, is it the same outside as here? What is the survivor base like?" Why? Why did no one come to rescue us? Does the country leave us alone?"

The question is not difficult to answer, but it is not something that can be finished in a few sentences. Looking at the weather outside, I know that if we continue to chat, we will have to stay in the drugstore tonight.On such a cold night, it was obviously not a good decision to stay in a pharmacy with no defenses and no heating facilities.

"It's getting dark, where do you live, we'll take you back first." Zhang Yi said.

Lan Lan was stunned for a while before answering yes, as if the family had discussed and discussed the decision in her mind.

It's not that Zhang Yi never thought that sending someone back so rashly would be a self-inflicted trap, but first of all, he and Nan Shao's strengths are there, and there is Dudu as the backup, so they have some confidence; If Lanlan has a problem, since they have encountered it, it may not be easy to get rid of it. Instead of passively coping with it in a daze, it is better to take the initiative to find out the situation, and if the other party has no problem, then they are more I dare not leave a little girl here.

So, Lan Lan quickly looked for the cold medicine she needed, and collected a lot of anti-inflammatory cough medicines, gauze and other things, but put everything she thought might be useful into her backpack and stuffed it full took a big backpack.Fortunately, these things are not heavy, and they are not a burden on the back.

"The outside is similar to here. There are zombies, mutated plants, and mutated animals everywhere." While walking, Zhang Yi answered Lan Lan's previous question.Looking at the direction she was walking, it was the neighborhood where the footprints came from.

Nan Shao still maintained his ant shape, leading Zhang Ruiyang to walk behind them, always paying attention to Lan Lan's movements.Neither he nor Zhang Yi could relax their guard until they were completely sure that the danger was over.

"There are still many zombies outside? Are they all stuck on the road?" Lan Lan seemed surprised to hear Zhang Yi's words.

"That's not true. Most of them are distributed in various cities." Zhang Yi shook his head.

"Is...really? Cough cough... But the zombies on the road near us have disappeared, I thought it was the same in other places." Lan Lan looked a little dazed and disappointed. "In other words, those zombies didn't disappear, they just ran to other streets?"

Zhang Yi heard the strangeness in her words, and asked, "Have you ever been to other places in the county?"

Lan Lan shook her head, "We've been staying in the community, and the farthest we went was to the pharmacy we just went to. I used to want to go out of the city as soon as the zombies were gone, and go outside to have a look, but there were mutated plants blocking me, so I couldn't get out at all. go."

In this way, it makes sense. Although there are mutated plants and mutated animals in the vicinity of the community, at least there are no zombies. If she stays here and does not run around, and if she is lucky, she can survive till now It is not impossible.But Zhang Yi still didn't let go of his vigilance, because the little girl herself was really weird.

"When did the zombies here disappear? Did something happen before they disappeared?" This was a question that Zhang Yi and Nan Shao had asked before, but now that they find a local, they have to ask.

Lan Lan opened her mouth to speak, but coughed out first. This time, she coughed harder, so she squatted down directly, and it took a while before she stopped.

"It's been almost a year now... Now it's snowing every day, and I don't have to go to school, I can't access the Internet or watch TV, I can't remember the time, it feels like every day is the same..." She looked distressed, and More confused, I couldn't help complaining a few words, and then I remembered Zhang Yi's question: "Nothing happened in those days, isn't it snowing and snowing every day... Oh, yes, that period There are a lot of time-mutated animals, dark and dense, running around here like crazy, some of them smashed the house, look, over there, look, the one over there is covered by an elephant twice the size The mutated beast hit us...ahem...it scared us to death those days, we didn't even dare to go out, we hid at home all day, and we didn't dare to open the curtains."

Following the direction of her finger, Zhang Yi saw a five-story building with a corner missing at the bottom. The steel bars protruding from the missing part were stunned in the cold wind, and half of the ceiling, walls and floors turned into broken stones and broken bricks. Half of the piled up snow on the ground at the foot of the building is exposed to the outside. In the room, you can also see furniture such as sofas and cabinets dumped on the ground. The outer walls above the third floor are covered with wide or narrow cracks. It can be imagined how violent the impact was. .

"You weren't discovered by the mutated animals?" He asked while checking.Mutant beasts are very sensitive to the smell of people, there is no reason why they can't detect her existence.

Lan Lan shook her head, "No, I said those mutated beasts were crazy...Ahem...At that time, they all ran in one direction, in groups, non-stop day and night, They don't fight each other, and the zombies around here also followed at that time. I thought it was like this in other places, haven't you seen this?"

Listening to her description, Zhang Yi couldn't help but see a specific picture in his mind. Apart from being thrilled, he felt a sense of déjà vu. Just as he was trying to find the source of this feeling, he heard Nan Shao coughing softly from behind. Said two words in a low voice.

"Beast tide."

Zhang Yi suddenly remembered, isn't what Lan Lan said was similar to the scene when the Yunzhou base was besieged, and the time she said...seemed to be correct.

"Here, my house is right in front, on the fifth floor." Zhang Yi wanted to ask again, but Lan Lan had already shouted out.

The community is very ordinary, consisting of several rows of five-story and six-story buildings. Lan Lan's home is in a six-story building.The neighborhood is quiet, and there are many mutated plants, but they are not too dense, and they are not too ferocious. If you make a detour, you will not be attacked. This may be why Lan Lan can survive here for so long One of the reasons for it.

"It's snowing so hard...cough cough...it needs to be cleared every day, otherwise it will be so high that people can't walk...cough cough..." Lan Lan skillfully led Zhang Yi and the others to turn east and right to avoid Open mutant plants, enter the building, and complain while climbing the stairs panting.Maybe it was because she hadn't seen anyone for a long time, she couldn't help talking non-stop even though her voice was hoarse.

Zhang Yi noticed that on the floors he passed, except for two open rooms, the others were tightly closed, and there were no signs of being broken.

"Have you never been in these houses?" He couldn't help asking.Generally speaking, it is much safer to search for supplies in the homes of residents in the same corridor than to go out, so most people will first search the upstairs and downstairs neighbors' homes before turning their eyes outside.Of course, this is just common sense, and it does not rule out that some people think differently.

"Yes, we have searched for the two rooms with open doors several times, but the other doors couldn't be opened, so we didn't go." While speaking, Lan Lan reached the fifth floor, took out the key from the bag with great difficulty, and opened the door while answering.

Some iron bars and wooden boards were nailed in a mess outside the anti-theft door of her house, leaving only a place near the lock for only one person to pass through, obviously to increase the defense of the door.It's just that this method is too rough and simple to be seen, and its defensiveness is not high, and it affects access even more. It will become a big flaw when the situation is critical and you need to race against time.

When Lan Lan opened the door and invited them in without hesitation, Zhang Yi hesitated for some reason.
