Chapter 96
Chapter 96:
“So anxious?” Mu Zi wanted to rest for two more days, waiting for the scar on his arm to heal.
“Isn’t old Zhao still looking for his ex-wife and children? Besides, Zhao Xi is afraid of us, and leave early so that he won’t think about it and cause us trouble.” Qin Chi is mainly worried that there will be heavy rains and driving on the road is unsafe, so he should be as early as possible. Good to arrive at the sunset base.
Qiao An came to look at the map and plan the route with them.
Nowadays, except for the lack of water in the space, the rest of the food and department stores are readily available. There are suitable villages and towns along the way to collect some necessary food, so you don’t have to worry about the supplies before arriving at the Xizhao base.
Qin Chi’s only concern was the issue of zombies on the road.
Letan City has been bombed, and the fall of the other cities is just a matter of time. I don’t know how many zombies will be encountered along the way, and they may not be able to escape safely.
In addition, presumably many areas are already building bases. In the next few years, the main unit will be “bases”, and cities will disappear.
The following days will only get harder and harder.
In the morning, after everyone hurriedly cleaned up, they drove out of the base in off-road vehicles. They came to this base not long ago, and they didn’t have much deep feelings. Unlike when they left Grandpa Zhang’s house, everyone was a little bit sad.
The hot weather that lasted for several months turned into a cool cloudy day, and the air conditioner in the car didn’t even need to be turned on, and you could feel the cool breeze when you open the windows. It’s just that the space for off-road vehicles is too small, and there is no RV to be comfortable.
Thinking about such a big RV, it can only be left in the space and cannot be driven. Old Yuan also felt sorry for the car he bought at a high price. So soon after he drove out of the base, he asked Qin Chi to take out the RV, and a group of people changed it. By motorhome.
Qiao An was standing outside the car with her baby in his arms, looking up at the majestic big guy, very surprised, “Where did this car come from? Isn’t it too luxurious?”
Lao Yuan explained without changing his face, “We hid the car in this wood earlier, and we can drive as soon as we get out.”
Not far away, Qin Chi drove the off-road vehicle into the Maolin, and then took the vehicle into the space after making sure that there was no one around.
When he returned, Old Yuan had already convinced Qiao An in a few words.
Qiao An’s heart is very simple, probably he was spoiled before and after marriage, not so crooked. But people’s hearts are unpredictable, and they dare not expose too much.
As for Zhao Fengnian, forget it if you can’t hide it.
The group of people got in the car, Mu Zi walked up to the single bed behind, and Ba Ping went to the kitchen to see the cute kitchen utensils that he had separated from him for a long time. Old Yuan and Wenjia took the initiative to sit in the cab and took the heavy responsibility for driving and finding the way.
After entering the carriage, Qiao An carried the sleeping child to the bed, and was looked after by Muzi who was playing games, and went to the front living room by himself.
Zhang Zhizheng opened the window to let the cool breeze in. I haven’t taken this big guy for a long time, and the car is a little stuffy.
“Is your car modified?” Qiao An touched the car wall, “It’s much thicker than a normal car.”
It doesn’t look like he hasn’t seen an RV before.
Qin Chi sat on the massage chair, enjoyed the massage service comfortably, and relaxed his muscles. “This car cost a lot of money at the beginning, and it hurt Lao Yuan.”
Lao Yuan’s voice came from the TV on the wall of the car, “No, it’s bankrupt.”
All money for Muzi’s future marriage to his wife was lost.
“But it’s not a loss, right?” Qin Chi asked with a smile.
“That’s not it.” Old Yuan was also very satisfied with his car.
After everyone sat down, Wen Jia had already adjusted the control panel of the off-road vehicle and started the RV slowly.
Qiao An said enviously, “The chassis of this car is very stable and there is no noise. It is really suitable for the current situation.”
When the old Yuan in the driver’s cab heard this, he said to his heart that it was built for the end times?
Zhang Zhi was sitting on another massage chair, clasping Qin Chi’s ten fingers, and the two looked at each other, and couldn’t help but smile softly, making Qiao An sitting on the opposite side very envious.
His husband, don’t know…
Thinking of her husband who was missing, Qiao An’s expression dimmed.
The RV is much more comfortable than the off-road vehicle with a small space, and there is plenty of gasoline. Lao Yuan is not distressed at all. Seeing a few zombies dangling in front of him, he was happy to direct, “Old Wen, step on the accelerator and hit them to death!”
“I’m already dead.” Wen Jia couldn’t bear to soil the wheels and wiped past a few zombies.
The zombies chased slowly, and within a few minutes they were thrown away by the fast-moving RV.
In this sturdy iron box, it seems that any danger is far away from them.
Down the road, the weather got colder and colder, and within a few weeks, I was covered with a quilt for sleep at night.
There are many people in the car, but there are only four beds, and at most two people can sleep on the sofa, and it is impossible to take out the off-road vehicle in front of Qiao An and Zhao Fengnian.
At night, Lao Yuan and Zhao Fengnian slept in the cab, Qin Chi and Zhang Zhi huddled on the sofa, while the others slept on the bed.
Wen Jia had to drive during the day and had to rest at night. Qiao An was weak and had to take care of the children. Even if he was embarrassed to sleep on the bed, no one would ask him to sleep on the sofa.
The sofa was so narrow that it was uncomfortable for the two big men to huddle together. Qin Chi asked Zhang Zhi to lie on his body, and the two clung to each other tightly.
Qin Chi stroked his lover’s smooth back and whispered, “Looking at the weather, it will probably rain soon. Then we’d better find a place to hide from the rain. It’s not safe to run around.”
No matter how tall the chassis of this RV is, no matter how heavy the tonnage is, it is not worth mentioning in the face of the flood.
“After that, I still try to take the national road as much as possible. The small roads in the towns are not safe.” Zhang Zhi worried that the flash flood would erupt under the heavy rain and it would be too late to escape.
“Tomorrow, I will tell Old Yuan and Wenjia.” Qin Chi pulled the quilt up a bit, and covered Zhang Zhi strictly with his arms around Zhang Zhi’s neck. “Go to sleep, it’s rare to be so quiet tonight.”
“Well, good night.” Zhang Zhi closed his eyes.
All the people in the car were asleep, but Qin Chi couldn’t sleep at all, staring at the roof of the car in a daze.
Zhang Zhi’s slight breathing sounded in his ears, and Qin Chi remembered the days when he and Zhang Zhi depended on each other in his previous life.
Those days were too hard, and every time I thought of him, he was terribly uncomfortable, and because of this, he was even more fearful. Every step must be carefully thought out, and I was afraid that he would fall into the same fate as before.
But because of his rebirth butterfly, many things have changed drastically now. It is enough to say that he did not meet Zhang Leyue and that person in the Hanhai base, which was enough to make Qin Chi anxious.
After two o’clock in the morning, Qin Chi was not asleep yet, only patted his lover’s back lightly, and straightened his ears to listen to the surrounding movement.
The area where they are located is a village, and the village is still faintly populated.
When the villagers learned that there were zombies infested, they had gathered all households, dug ditches to build canals, set up many barriers, and collectively hid in caves in the mountains.
There are occasionally a few zombies from other places wandering nearby, and they will be killed by the village Self-Defense Forces. Compared with densely populated cities, such primitive villages are obviously better at coping with disasters.
Qin Chi always felt upset when he heard the calls of frogs and birds coming from outside the car, as if something big would happen in the middle of the night, and he could not sleep well.
At about three o’clock, Qin Chi took out his mobile phone to play. He adjusted the brightness of the interface very low so as not to wake Zhang Zhi from the light.
It’s just that he hasn’t seen it for five minutes before he hears the sound of rumbling from the ground, as if he had heard the roar of natural gas pipeline explosions one after another in Luocheng.
The sound was far away and not obvious, only the water in the glass shook slightly, which reminded Qin Chi that this was not a dream.
Without any hesitation, Qin Chi covered Zhang Zhi’s ear with one hand, and then rang the alarm in the car.
The alarm was installed a few days ago by Zhang Zhi and Wen Jia, and when the alarm went off, all areas in the car could be heard immediately.
The harsh sound awakened everyone from their sleep, and the old Yuan in the driver’s cab turned his head and looked at the horizon of the city in the distance outside the window. It was red.
“Damn, where is it on fire again?”
The rest of the people also got up one after another, Zhao Fengnian looked in the same direction, his face suddenly sinking, “It’s not a fire, it’s a bombing!”
Amidst the faint flames, there were obviously flying objects hovering in the sky, and one after another shots were thrown into the city from a high altitude, causing the entire city to continue to burn and smoke.
As the artillery fire became louder and louder, Zhang Zhi also stood up and opened the car window, looking into the distance.
“Why do you want to blow up the city again?”
Qin Chi said in a deep voice, “Probably it can’t be controlled.”
In the back compartment, Ba Ping and Wen Jia walked over while putting on their clothes.
Wen Jia said, “Don’t we see many areas evacuating survivors these days? If the zombies in the city can’t be controlled, evacuate the survivors, leaving the infected in the city and blowing them up with the zombies. This is the best choice.”
These days, along the way, they are optimistic that many military vehicles are transferring part of the population to the newly established base. It is said that afterwards, major cities will have corresponding evacuation tasks until all uninfected people are transferred to safe areas.
As for the emerging cities that humans have spent decades building, they can only be submerged in powerful artillery with the zombies.
The explosion sounded louder and louder, and Qiao An was at a loss for a while holding the crying baby.
The child had always been obedient, rarely cried, and was really frightened, so he started crying hoarsely.
“I’m sorry, sorry, I will breastfeed him right away, I’m sorry…” Qiao An was in a hurry, fearing that the cry of the child would attract zombies and cause trouble to Zhang Zhi and the others.
Zhang Zhi put on his coat and walked over, took out the milk powder and diapers, and took Qiao An to the back carriage to take care of the baby.
All the people in the car woke up and looked worriedly at the city being bombed. Only Muzi was asleep, hugging his pillow and talking in sleep.
Wen Jia washed his face with cold water, and when he was awake, he jumped into the cab, planning to leave the place by car.
After all, the bombers were hovering in the sky. If they were misaligned, and a bomb dropped here, wouldn’t they be dead for nothing?
But Wen Jia hadn’t started the RV, and heard Zhao Fengnian shout again, “What is that!”
Everyone in the car became nervous again and looked at the bombed area together.
