"Brother Su, I have an impression of this wave of zombie horde. It was the one Brother Zhuzi and I lured that day, and it seems to be a bit more than it was back then!"

Wu Lue's voice rang out.

"That's right, I have an impression too. Judging by the direction, this group of zombies is very likely heading toward our camp. We must find a way to lure them away, follow me!"

Zhang Su handed the walkie-talkie to Su Xiaoya and said: "I need to drive seriously, you are responsible for communicating with them!"

"Okay!" Su Xiaoya held the walkie-talkie tightly, not daring to be sloppy at all. It was her first time seeing a zombie horde of such a massive scale, and her heart was thumping wildly.

Actually, as long as the number exceeds three thousand, it makes people feel very shocked, especially since the movements of the zombie horde were uniform, adding a layer of eeriness.

From the current location heading south, all the way to Qincheng, there was no second camp besides Tianmayu. Perhaps there were lone wolves like Ju Wuying and Yi Xiaoling, but that was definitely a very small minority, and they couldn't lure a zombie horde of this scale!

"Xiao Wang, you back up, Bozai, you come with me first!"

Zhang Su stepped on the gas, and the speed of the FJ Cruiser was raised to over a hundred, quickly overtaking the zombie horde and arriving at another road running east-west in front. The Big Dog naturally followed closely!

The specifications of this east-west road were not as good as the provincial road; it should have been a road planned for village-to-village connectivity. There were some farm machines and three-wheeled vehicles stopped on the road, not enough to completely block traffic, but very obstructive!

In the Sienna, Yi Xiaoling, who had never seen a large-scale zombie migration, was very nervous. She held the handle tightly and tried to stay calm, saying: "Brother Wang, will they... will they be okay?"

Wang Xin's expression was very relaxed. He shook his head and said: "Don't worry, we have full confidence in this kind of thing. Watch their timing and distance later, don't forget to learn from the experience, it might be useful in the future."

"That's right, although you are very likely to become logistics personnel, the tenet of our camp is that everyone is a soldier, so you'd better have a certain ability to adapt."

Chen Hanzhou tightened his mechanical prosthetic limb, his attitude very serious.

Recently, Pei Lan had completely joined the logistics side. Although she still followed the daily training, there were clear signs of slackness. For this reason, Chen Hanzhou had severely criticized her, but almost no one knew about these things.

"Bozai, later I'll go west, you go east. You can lure them into the Qingxian county seat; the buildings there are complex, making it easy to trap the zombie horde. But you must find a good retreat and don't get yourself trapped! Xiao Wang, you watch the situation at any time and prepare to fill in. If you catch the tail of the zombie horde, lead them north, take them to the agrochemical plant, acknowledge!"

"OK, Brother Su."

"No problem!"

The two replied in seconds.

When the zombie horde was not stimulated, its movement speed was not very fast, swaying and wobbling, as if it were an army of ghosts passing through. After the freezing cold, the speed decreased further. About twenty minutes later, the head of the zombie horde finally arrived at a position about a hundred meters from the road.

Just as Wang Xin said, the people of Tianmayu had absolutely no pressure regarding the work of luring zombies; it was something they were familiar with. The two cars mastered the distance and speed, and under the roar of the loudspeaker, they successfully split the zombie horde into two waves. Not a single one was left behind, and there was no need for the Sienna to take action at all.

Zhang Su led the separated zombies slowly toward the west, looking at the unfamiliar scenery along the way, and after leading them onto a certain road at will, he accelerated to break away from the pursuit of the zombie horde.

The Big Dog side also had no pressure. Leading the zombie horde into the Qingxian county seat, after going around a snack street, Lu Yubo used the Big Dog's good passability to climb over a pile of obstacles and left the zombie horde in the snack street.

"See that, you little Jap? We must know how to use our brains to handle problems, instead of blindly acting recklessly; that is a stupid way of doing things!"

Lu Yubo drove away from the zombie horde, lit a cigarette happily, and didn't forget to take the opportunity to regain some face in front of Ju Wuying, because Ju Wuying had previously questioned the plan to lure the zombies away.

Ju Wuying believed in absolute force. Along the way, she had been gripping the slender steel bar that had been fashioned into the shape of a sword. Only when she saw that the zombie horde was truly trapped did she let out a sigh of relief. Hearing Lu Yubo's sarcasm, she was just about to speak when a flash of peripheral vision caught her eye. She turned her head violently and then shouted.

"Stop?" Wu Lue looked at the translation software and asked in confusion: "Why stop?"

"STOP! Quick, stop!"

Seeing that Lu Yubo had no intention of stopping, Ju Wuying was so anxious that she blurted out a sentence of English with a Japanese accent, and added two awkwardly pronounced Chinese words.

Lu Yubo frowned, slammed on the brakes in the middle of the road, turned his head, and said: "Little Jap girl, what kind of stunt are you trying to pull again?"

If it were someone else, he would have added a sentence at the end: "Do you believe I'll beat you to death?" But he wasn't that arrogant when talking to Ju Wuying...

Ju Wuying pointed to the corner of the intersection on the road they had just come from.

"She says... there were two cars there just now, and there were people in the cars watching us? Damn, really?"

Wu Lue acted as the translator, and after reading it, he was full of surprise.

"Can't be? Let's go see..."

Lu Yubo's heart sank after hearing this. He didn't have time to question it; after rushing out of the food street, he was busy lighting a cigarette and didn't see the situation on other roads very clearly. But Ju Wuying's reaction just now didn't look like she was bluffing, so he hurriedly turned around.

"She says there definitely were, at least two, mixed in among the abandoned vehicles. She saw someone in the driver's seat? Where are the people? Where are they?"

After Wu Lue finished speaking, he fixed his gaze outside the window, staring tightly at the surroundings.

Lu Yubo and Ju Wuying were also very vigilant, looking around.

In the eyes of the few, the current Qingxian was already equivalent to a dead city. Previously, the Azure Dragon Corps had been stationed on the side and had already swept through it who knows how many times. Valuable supplies had already been swept clean, and the remaining supplies that looked valuable but were of little help to survival were basically close to useless in the apocalypse...

Plus, with the hundred-thousand-strong zombie horde passing through a few days ago, how could there still be survivors in the city?

Even if there were lone wolves mixed in the urban area, it was unlikely they would be driving. If there were really two cars as Ju Wuying said, then there were at least two people hiding in the dark and peeping, which was worth noting!

"Could it be survivors of the Azure Dragon Corps hiding in the county seat to survive? Or people who don't know the recent situation of the Azure Dragon Corps and ran over to trade, like those guys from the Shanhai District last time?"

Wu Lue asked with a frown.

"Not clear, there's no car here either..."

Lu Yubo answered absent-mindedly while driving the car to the intersection Ju Wuying pointed to. He didn't see the vehicles she mentioned, but there were indeed some abandoned vehicles lying across the road.

Ju Wuying pointed at the street and gestured a lot.

"She says the two cars were parked right next to that red Toyota earlier. It was a white sedan and a silver SUV..."

Wu Lue told Lu Yubo what Ju Wuying said.

"So detailed... are you a hawk-eye? I'll believe you once!"

Lu Yubo turned the steering wheel and prepared to chase forward, but was stopped by Wu Lue.

"Brother Bo, wait a moment, let me ask Brother Su what to do."

Although Wu Lue's combat power was not as good as Lu Yubo's, he knew what kind of personality Lu Yubo had from observing him. He didn't dare to follow him and rush forward. Although there was a Ju Wuying with explosive combat power in the car, as the old saying goes, no matter how high your kung fu is, you're afraid of a kitchen knife, not to mention those people in the dark might have guns!

"Fine, let's ask before we act, we can't be reckless!"

Lu Yubo also felt that Wu Lue's words made sense.

Being reckless by nature wasn't scary, as long as one listened to advice.

"Brother Su, Brother Su, can you hear me? We are now in the Qingxian county seat. Ju Wuying just suspected that there were vehicles watching us in the dark. Should we pursue and investigate?"

Wu Lue picked up the walkie-talkie and asked. His words were very particular; he said Ju Wuying suspected she had discovered them, meaning whether Ju Wuying had actually discovered them was a question mark, waiting to be determined.

Soon the other side replied: "No pursuit allowed, return immediately!"

Wu Lue and Lu Yubo exchanged glances and both made faces.

"Received, received."

Wu Lue put down the walkie-talkie, turned his head to look at Ju Wuying, and said: "Brother Su must think there is danger and doesn't want us to take risks. A boss who is so considerate of his companions is not bad, right?"
