Chapter 28: Zombie Swarm Enters the Complex
"Unless the authorities have established a shelter, I don't think we'll die any faster by going out. But if you insist on leaving, Brother, I'll accompany you."
Duan Sihai said powerlessly, no light of hope in his eyes.
Duan Wuhu saw his younger brother finally agree to his proposal, feeling a little relieved. He patted his younger brother's thin shoulder and said: "Sihai, the two of us, brothers working together, can break metal. We can definitely live to find a safe place to settle down!"
"We'll go to Qingxian. There are few people in Qingxian to begin with, so even if there are zombies, there won't be many. The terrain is complex. We'll find an unoccupied farmhouse, can farm, can raise livestock, have well water, burn firewood—we can definitely live!"
Perhaps infected by the beauty described by his older brother, Duan Sihai's eyes gradually brightened, but then dimmed again: "Brother, what you say is easy, but I ask you, the zombies in the unit building alone are enough for us to be in big trouble, not to mention walking out of the complex..."
"Do you have a plan? How do we escape the unit, how do we go, which road? If we don't plan well, rushing out is just looking for death, Brother!"
Duan Wuhu nodded, feeling a little gratified: "Sihai, it's very good that you can think of these. I already have a preliminary plan. Come and analyze it together, and if there's anything inappropriate, give your brother some ideas!"
Hearing his older brother had a draft, Duan Sihai suddenly became interested. If there was really hope for life, who would want to be trapped in a corner waiting for death...
The brothers sat around the dining table with paper and pen, discussing, word by word, very seriously about life and death.
Upstairs, Zhang Su returned home with the induction cooker and soup pot he took from 902. The whole process was safe and sound. He had no idea that while he was out, the two women at home had a brief meeting.
"Are you okay?"
Zheng Xin saw the viscous liquid dripping from the axe Zhang Su was carrying, knowing he must have solved the zombie, and asked with concern.
Zhang Su handed the things he was carrying to Zhong Xiaoshan, who had a slightly strange expression, and shook his head: "I ambushed it, no difficulty!"
Ambushing meant no martial virtue? It didn't exist...
While taking off his equipment, Zhang Su said with slight excitement: "There are quite a few things in Brother Li's fridge. When we have time, we'll move them all back!"
"But where will we put them after taking them back? The black-hearted landlord didn't provide a fridge..."
Zheng Xin squinted at Zhang Su and said.
Zhang Su held his forehead. If he had known this day would come, he would have bought a large freezer for his home, but it was too late to say these things now.
"Then let's leave them there for now. Brother Li's family... sigh, being alive isn't necessarily happiness; all of them dying is a relief. In short, there's no one in their house now..."
Touching the key in his pocket, Zhang Su sighed.
Zhong Xiaoshan, who was busy in the kitchen, paused. Thinking of her parents in the countryside, she also felt dejected. But as the saying went, it wasn't easy to take care of oneself now, and thinking about things too far away only added to the worry.
A quarter of an hour later, dough drop soup was on the table...
Because the dumplings had lumped too badly, they couldn't be separated at all, and in the end, they had to be mashed up. The dumplings became dough drop soup.
Only a day or so had passed. From the beginning of the internet cut to the water cut, now even the gas was gone. The situation had deteriorated sharply. Having a bowl of hot dough drop soup was already very rare.
The three had no dissatisfaction. Smelling the aroma, they swallowed their saliva, already drooling.
"Eat, eat, don't just watch!"
Zhang Su was the first to serve a bowl. The dough drop soup made from lamb dumplings tasted quite good. He took out a spoonful of chili he found at Brother Li's house, which was just too satisfying.
Zhong Xiaoshan was very sensible, only eating one bowl before stopping her chopsticks, which made Zheng Xin, who wanted a second bowl, feel a bit embarrassed.
Zhang Su looked at the two and pointed to the remaining dough drop soup: "Eat some more, we're going to train later. If you don't eat something, the training effect won't be good!"
"Training?"
Zhong Xiaoshan looked at Zhang Su curiously.
Zheng Xin answered for Zhang Su: "Brother Su made a training plan, it's quite intense. After practicing yesterday, my arms and thighs are still sore."
Since Zhang Su spoke, Zheng Xin didn't stand on ceremony, scooping another half bowl of dough drop soup, eating until her whole body was warm.
"Brother Su, can I ask what you did before? It's so hard to be able to face such a big thing so calmly."
Zhong Xiaoshan asked curiously while scooping dough drop soup.
Zhang Su ate, his mouth vague: "I'm just a landlord, she's a celebrity, an internet streamer!"
Being able to face it calmly came from nearly ten years of life experience. These things weren't enough to be told to outsiders.
"It's only a few tens of thousands of fans, and there are some robots. Celebrity my ass..."
Zheng Xin defended herself a bit embarrassedly. At most, she had three hundred viewers when she streamed, and sometimes only a few dozen.
"Then you two are really amazing. Honestly, I thought Brother Su was a retired special forces soldier at first."
Zhong Xiaoshan looked at Zhang Su with charming eyes and ate the dough drop soup delicately.
"Exaggerated. I just work out normally. Compared to special forces, I'm probably far behind. You guys aren't eating, right? Then I'll finish it!"
Seeing the two women waving their hands, Zhang Su picked up the pot and started showing off.
His training intensity was three times that of Zheng Xin's. He must have enough food to support it. If food was short, he would lower the intensity to ensure he could deal with daily situations.
It was past one in the afternoon after eating. The three rested for a while. Zhang Su was just about to call the two to start exercising when Zheng Xin, who was lifting the curtain to look outside, suddenly said: "No, Zhang Su, come and look, there's a situation!"
"What situation!"
Zhang Su's heart tightened, and he walked quickly to the window.
"Hurry, look over there, my god, so many zombies!"
Zheng Xin couldn't help but cover her mouth, her eyes full of terror, her body even trembling a little.
"W, T, F..."
Zhang Su looked in the direction Zheng Xin pointed, his eyes wide, and he couldn't help but curse.
On the street where the special police and zombie swarm exchanged fire last night, black masses of zombies were drilling into Shengqin Garden from the broken wall. Looking closely, he realized they were chasing a drone!
A drone with a strange shape hovered in the air, and below it hung a loudspeaker!
"Damn it, someone is leading zombies into our complex!"
Zhang Su instantly understood the situation. Although the distance wasn't close, he vaguely heard the loudspeaker playing something loudly. It was this sound that attracted the zombies' attention.
"My god, th-these are the zombies from last night?"
Zhong Xiaoshan also leaned out to look into the distance. The scene of the zombie swarm climbing over the wall made her shudder.
At night, due to the light, the three hadn't truly experienced the oppressive feeling of the zombie swarm. At this moment, they had an intuitive feeling.
Those running zombies weren't slow. Their crazy appearance was even more ferocious than a tiger hunting for food, chasing the drone one after another without fear of death!
One could imagine if living people appeared in front of them, what a miserable end it would be. It would probably take less than a minute to be eaten up.
