[Martial Arts] Infinite Chamber Game

A quarrel broke out on the rooftop.

Zhang Runcheng hugged his daughter and said, "How about we go down and take a look? So many zombies have been led away. Even if there are some left, there shouldn't be too many. We can't live here anymore. We have to move."

Man Lianshan said, "How can we, the old and the young, get around? Just go out like this? Didn't you see that all the cars have been driven away?"

Zhang Runcheng said dissatisfiedly: "Then what do you say we should do? Just stay here? What if the zombies fail to catch up with the car and turn around and come back? Brother Chu risked his life to lead the zombies away, wasn't it just to let us escape!"

Dong Jianqiang felt that what his wife said made sense, and hesitated, "This is the city center. It's too dangerous for us to go out like this. How about waiting for Brother Chu to drive back and pick us up?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Guan Minghui spat in his face. He wanted to scold him, but was afraid of scaring the child in his arms. He glared at him and said viciously: "You say such things, are you a man? How did you survive for more than three months? Ah? Brother Chu is like that, and you still rely on him?" As he spoke, his eyes turned red and his voice was a little choked: "I don't know if he can... How is he and Sister Lin doing."

Dong Jianhui turned around a few times and scratched his hair angrily: "If you have an idea, what should we do?"

Guan Minghui immediately said, "Let's go, we have to leave quickly, but we can't leave together. Three people should go out first, two of them should go find a car, one should pack up, and then drive the car downstairs and pick up everyone and leave together!"

She looked at Shen Bijun with a burning gaze: "Sister Shen, what do you think?"

Shen Bijun looked very unhappy. She kept biting her lips tightly, and her whole body was trembling with pain. After hearing this, she just nodded: "It's up to you."

Dong Jianhui immediately shouted when he heard this: "Why? Why should we listen to a little girl like her? Is she good at fighting or taking on responsibilities? Doesn't she just want to hide here with the child, so that my brother and I can go out and fight?"

Indeed, among this group of people, only he, his brother and Zhang Runcheng are men in their prime. If three people are to be sent out, it goes without saying that they must be the three of them.

Guan Minghui glared at him fiercely and stamped her feet in anger: "I don't listen to me, but you? What do you say we should do? Should I take the risk of going out with the child? Or should Jun Jie go out alone with a pregnant woman? You three grown men are hiding in the house? Can you please have some shame? Otherwise, let Director He go? Let He Xiaomei go?"

He Lao's granddaughter has always been taciturn. When she heard someone call her name, she immediately lowered her head and seemed a little timid.

Dong Jianhui shouted anxiously, "Anyway, I won't listen to you. I'll listen to my brother! You only know how to pretend to be a good person. When the time comes, you can sell out anyone!"

Guan Minghui's face turned red when he said that, and then turned pale with anger: "Who did I sell out? Tell me clearly who did I sell out?"

"You know it yourself!"

"Hey, stop arguing! Huizi, you and me will go out later. Xiao Zhang, you can come with us too. Let's go back and grab our weapons first. You pack up on the fourth floor while my brother and I go find a car."

Man Lianshan looked around and said to Shen Bijun a little embarrassedly: "Sister, you are pregnant too? Oh, look at this... this... Alas! You see, we are all ordinary people, and we are not as capable as you. I see that you just made a casual move and the zombies fell down before they even got close to you, and you ran fast, you see..."

She didn't seem to notice the painful expression on Shen Bijun's face, and it seemed that no one saw it, let alone asked her what happened. Man Lianshan was a little confused. He Lao had diagnosed her before, and he was watching beside her. Shen Bijun just had some deficiency of Qi and blood, and she didn't have any disease at all, let alone injury. So what was wrong with her? Was she being squeamish? Or was she pretending? No one knew, but at such a critical moment, with her good skills, she couldn't just take advantage of being a woman and hide behind the men, right?
As for herself, she was just an ordinary housewife. Before the apocalypse, her life was even easier than that of most housewives. Her children were grown up and her parents helped to take care of them. Her sister also helped with the housework. She only cooked and washed dishes occasionally. Even in the more than three months after the zombie outbreak, it was her husband and brother-in-law who went out to collect supplies. She never went out, and she never killed a single zombie. Of course, she could not compare with people like Shen Bijun who were suspected of having obtained "super powers".

After she finished speaking, everyone's eyes were on Shen Bijun. The look was the same as the one she gave Chu Liuxiang. She could be trusted and relied upon, as if you were born to be omnipotent, born to be a hero, and it was your responsibility to save other people's lives.

Shen Bijun closed her eyes, calmed herself down, and said, "I'm not feeling well..." She paused, not daring to look at the people's eyes that changed from expectation to disappointment, and changed her words, "I'll go."

"No, no." Dong Jianqiang was a man in his 40s after all, and he still had some dignity to maintain. He kept saying, "I'll go. Xiao Shen will stay here to protect you. Xiao Zhang, Huizi, you guys come with me later. The three of us will be enough."

Zhang Runcheng seemed a little hesitant, but he finally made up his mind and said, "Okay, I'll go down with Brother Dong. I'll leave my daughter to you. Xinxin, you wait here with uncle and auntie for daddy. Daddy will be back soon!"

The little girl's eyes were filled with tears, and she said timidly: "Dad..."

……

The Wuling Hongguang was smashed into pieces and black smoke was coming out of the hood.

People fainted inside, and the zombies were far behind. Chu Liuxiang's driving skills were still rusty, especially this manual transmission car was not easy to drive, but he had to control the speed. He couldn't drive too fast, otherwise the zombies would fall behind and turn back, and he couldn't drive too slowly, otherwise the zombies would catch up. He still remembered clearly how Guan Minghui's two classmates died.

The People's Hospital is in the city center. The day when the zombies broke out happened to be a weekend. There were a lot of cars on the street, and they were parked in a mess. This was a very heavy test for the driver. Chu Liuxiang drove and crashed all the way, which naturally attracted a lot of zombies, and they were all knocked away by him.

This is the end of the world. If it were a peaceful and prosperous time, I would have been stopped by the police and had my blood tested long ago.

It has to be said that the effect of Du Lengding is really good, ridiculously good. They really don't feel any pain in their bodies, but the side effects are equally obvious. Lin Shiyin has fallen into a deep coma, and Chu Liuxiang is still holding on. He feels numb all over, his head is dizzy, he feels like he is suffocating, and he really wants to vomit.

He believed that as long as he closed his eyes for a moment, he would fall asleep. But there were at least hundreds of zombies chasing after the car. How could he dare to sleep?

The effect of the drug was so strong that it was far beyond the ability of human willpower to resist. Chu Liuxiang even tried to use his internal strength to force the drug out of his body.

The consequence of the attempt was that the drug's effect spread faster.

No, I can’t hold on any longer.

Chu Liuxiang's eyes were blurred. He bit the tip of his tongue and blood gushed out. The taste of rust filled his mouth, but he didn't feel any pain. He used one hand to pinch his leg. The leg had been shot, making it difficult for him to walk. But even though his nails were stuck in the wound, he still didn't feel any pain.

There was no other choice, so he stepped on the accelerator hard. The Wuling Hongguang made a humming sound as if it was about to take off. He did not gradually release the accelerator and stepped on the brake until the zombies were left far behind.

This series of actions were all completed in Chu Liuxiang's subconscious mind, or even in his dream.

The Wuling Hongguang drove into a quiet narrow alley, hit a tree and was completely scrapped.

……

Lijingyuan Community is a residential area in the city center, very close to the People's Hospital, surrounded by high-end office buildings and major entertainment venues. The amazing thing is that the community is well greened. In midsummer, there are patches of shade everywhere, and villas are next to each other. It is conceivable that in a place like City C, the housing prices in this community must be very high, and those who can live here are naturally rich.

With the arrival of the doomsday, some of the wealthy people who originally lived in the community turned into zombies, some were accidentally bitten, and many who reacted quickly packed up supplies and took their families out of the city.

People who can own a house in this community naturally will not only have this one house. It is very common to have one or even several holiday villas in the suburbs. And even a fool knows that it is much easier to survive in a remote suburb than in the city center, which is full of infected people.

Of course, there are also people who are unwilling to give up their homes, and many wandering survivors have set their sights on this place.

After all, those are rows of villas!

Besides, there are many large supermarkets nearby. There is no reason for people who are struggling to survive in the end times not to settle down here.

The noise of the Wuling Hongguang crashing into the tree was quite loud, which naturally alarmed the survivors living there. Seven or eight people came out holding various weapons. They looked around vigilantly and shot the heads of several zombies that came after hearing the noise. The leader had a walkie-talkie on his chest. He looked into the car and said, "Third brother, someone drove in and fainted. I'm not sure if he's infected. It seems that his injuries are quite serious, but they don't look like zombie bites. His clothes are also covered with zombie intestines and internal organs. It probably won't be easy to escape. What should we do?"

"You ask what to do? Is this your first time doing something like this, brother?" A sarcastic voice came from the other end of the intercom: "You still want to save him? These days we just need to take care of ourselves. There's no need to risk for others. Just shoot him in the head."

"What if it's a living person? I can't do it."

"Then let someone else do it."

"But……"

“Oh, that’s enough.” The man called Third Brother said irritably, “Just leave it there and ignore it. Either wait until the people mutate before you take action, or just set the car on fire. I’m also confused. I remember the north gate was welded shut. How did they get in?!”
