This is apocalyptic

Chapter 251: Hope

"The advantages of living together are obvious. We can deal with more dangers, find more supplies, and take care of each other."

Bai Xiao stretched lazily.

They are also the natives of the ruins. Unlike those who live alone, they gather together and survive as a group.

Just like what happened to Lin Huayou and his friends in the mountain village more than a decade ago, zombies were still very dangerous at that time. Later, many people died and those who were left became loners.

Some people continued to go to other places to find survivors and formed a village to take care of each other.

Some live alone, while others live together.

"Have a good winter..."

Feeling the hot weather, Bai Xiao sighed. He used to laugh at Lin Duoduo. In the midsummer, they began to prepare for winter little by little.

Being a scavenger has always been difficult.

I just don’t know whether he is a reveler like Chenjiabao or a pure survivor.

"Are they the people who chased the second child in?" Lin Duoduo glanced at the opposite door. At this time, Ge Xia was already asleep. The child didn't have much entertainment and was quiet. He would go to bed early when it got dark, and then get up and go to work before dawn.

"Let her take one look and she'll know."

It is difficult to hide the traces of the outsiders, or perhaps they don’t even want to hide. Just like Chenjiabao in the past, they will spread the news, hoping that more people who can’t survive will live together and take care of each other.

Along the way, there were many fallen zombies in the grass.

“Hey, there are figs!”

During the day, Lao Song also saw the fig tree and ran over. However, there were only a few ripe figs on it, and most of them were hanging high on the branches.

"Why do I feel like someone has been active here?" The companion saw that the branches and leaves had obviously been picked by someone.

"A scavenger, maybe... If he can walk this far, it means the environment isn't that bad. Lao Zhong! Climb up and pick two."

"Why don't you climb?"

Lao Zhong spat. Who knows what's on that tree? Not to mention monsters like snakes and cats hiding in the leaves, it would be uncomfortable to be crawled all over by bugs.

He looked around and frowned, "I always feel like I'm being watched. Do you guys feel the same way?"

It's cold and a bit unsettling.

But after looking around, he found nothing except the staggering zombies.

I suppressed that feeling deep in my heart and looked up. The tall and short buildings in the distance looked like silent tombs. This kind of environment always makes people feel depressed. I have this feeling every time I come to the city.

——This is a nightmare that people who experienced the era before the disaster cannot get rid of.

In the distant building.

Lin Duoduo looked at the group of people and tilted her head and asked, "Do you want to drive them away?"

She doesn't like her peaceful life being disturbed.

But it is inevitable that scavengers will come to the city.

As long as she didn't get close to her residence, she looked at the zombies in the distance. Since she was also a survivor, she couldn't go there because the group of zombies there would make people stay away from them.

Bai Xiao looked at the group of people without saying anything. He was thinking about something else.

I wonder where this group of people live.

If the bowl of blood left in the mountain village was useful, the safe zone was free, and there was a vaccine, the most important thing would not be to find him. The remaining manpower in Chenjiabao and other settlements scattered in the ruins were more important than him.

If the infection problem is resolved.

As long as we keep an eye on the settlement, we will get the news sooner or later.

That is not only the hope of the survivors in the ruins, but also Lin Duoduo's hope.

His only connection with this world is Lin Duoduo. The life and death of others is none of his business, so he left that bowl of blood.

It was also the best third way at the time. She didn't have to be sent to a safe zone where no one knew her, nor did she have to lead her to a hopeless end, nor did she have to be studied as a zombie.

The only problem is news, news about the vaccine.

The zombie stood in the building, looking at the group of people calmly. The bowl of blood was the hope of survival.

"What are you thinking about?" Lin Duoduo waved her hand in front of his eyes.

"Guess."

The zombie opened its mouth to bite her hand, but missed.

"They are here to look for supplies." Bai Xiao suddenly said.

"Can you find it?"

"Look at this route now, I can't find it."

Most of the supplies in this area were moved into the building bit by bit by him during the winter. What was left was taken away, as it was not important.

This is a very weird thing.

At least in Lao Song's opinion, it was a bit weird, as if someone had got here first. It was nothing to be beaten to it by someone else - this was a common thing. After all, the city was so big that there would always be people who would take risks.

But this was the first time he had seen such a thorough search.

How much stuff can a normal scavenger take away? And there are still a lot of zombies, surrounding the door of the warehouse. It looks like this place has not been touched by anyone, but it is a mess inside, as if all those things were taken away by zombies.

"Something's wrong. This place is a little weird."

Old Song suddenly remembered that there seemed to be something going on among the scavengers here...

Changhai is haunted.

unlucky!

"What the hell!" Lao Zhong also felt unlucky.

They can tell at a glance whether a place has been ransacked, which saves a lot of trouble and effort, so they don't care whether someone has got there first. If someone has ransacked it, they can just go somewhere else.

But you can't tell that now - there clearly seem to be a lot of zombies, and there are places that have not been touched. I took great effort to clean them out, but I saw that the inside was empty, as clean as the outside.

It's a waste of effort and you get nothing.

"No, they are sick?" Lao Zhong was very surprised. "Who is this? After picking up the things, they attracted the zombies to recover?"

"Damn... this is a master."

Old Song also cursed, "I heard that there are people in other places who peel zombie skins and put them on their bodies, and they can walk through a large group of zombies. Is this true?"

Lao Zhong said, "Why don't you try? There's no need to bother cleaning it out. Just go in and see if it's empty."

"What if you get infected? Go ahead." Lao Song took out a bag from his bag, "I have some here."

Seeing Lao Zhong staring at him in surprise, Lao Song laughed and said, "If we are really surrounded one day, we can always give it a try, right?"

The idea that covering yourself with zombie skin can protect you from bites is just a legend. No one has tried it—at least they haven't seen it, and no one dares to try it.

First of all, if it’s a small group of zombies, you don’t need to use such a disgusting method, just rush through it. If it’s a large group of zombies, avoid it if you can.

Covering up with skin is useful even if you are surrounded by scattered zombies, but what if there are too many zombies and the truth is revealed? Then you will become a big dumpling with stuffing, and be torn to pieces by the zombies one by one.

They were close to the city center, but found almost nothing. The place was empty, making them feel a little chilly.

I have never encountered such a situation. Just like what Lao Song said - unless someone goes in disguised as a zombie to search, it is possible that no traces will be left.

But it's a bit weird if it's like this all the way.

"I heard that Changhai is haunted." said Lao Song.

From afar he saw a street full of zombies - crowded together, like wriggling worms, as if they had never dormant for the past twenty years, and crowded from the beginning to the end of the street.

There's something unusual about this place.

On the contrary, there were not many monsters.

"The monsters here were eaten by zombies?" Lao Zhong also saw it, gasped and exclaimed.
