doomsday lamb

Three days later, in the early morning somewhere in the central district of Shashi, two survivors were running for their lives. The boy was wearing denim trousers and a gray shirt, followed by a girl wearing a beautiful black skirt.

The weak morning light shines into the street, shining brightly on the oxidized and blackened blood on the ground. Heavy breathing, and the sound of debris being knocked down constantly. Gradually, the roar of the black corpse chasing behind becomes fainter,

It's like being distanced.

"Go this way!"

The young man stepped over the mound in one step and took the girl to hide in the ruins of a store. The two of them hid behind the counter.

"Have you noticed that there seem to be more black corpses on the street these days?" Anyang squatted in the corner and whispered.

Zhang Cheng responded: "There are some signs of zombie riots."

"How could it be? Didn't the prophecy post say that there won't be a large-scale zombie riot in the first year of the apocalypse?"

Zhang Cheng sighed: "Where can there be a true prophet in this world..."

"Then where should we go? To the shelter outside the city? The radio said there is a new base there."

"No," Zhang Cheng shook his head, "I don't have the habit of putting my life in the hands of others. Who knows if those people will be the same guys who eat people without spitting out their bones. The time is almost up, let's hurry up and rush to the next one.

Gathering point.”

It turns out that when he was still in KTV, Zhang Cheng went out many times to survey the route, and transmitted wireless signals to notify the International Science and Technology Alliance. In the rescue plan he submitted to the outside world, he specified that he would leave the storage room under different circumstances.

The locations that may appear after different days are called gathering points.

The word "正" carved in the storage room at that time was the mark left by Zhang Cheng. With these marks, the rescuers could know how many days they had stayed here and rush to the corresponding place at the corresponding time to meet them.

.

"Eating people?" Perhaps recalling the scene of cannibalism in the candy KTV storage room, Anyang said with an ugly face, "Zhang Cheng, I..."

"Well..."

Suddenly, Zhang Cheng covered Anyang's mouth and pressed him tightly. The two of them huddled in the small space behind the counter in an inelegant posture, which seemed a bit ambiguous at first glance.

"Silence!"

Anyang's heart was beating fast, and Zhang Cheng's warning gave him a jolt before he could think too much.

Only then did she notice that there were some chaotic footsteps outside the store door. And if anyone could make those faintly audible "ho-ho" roars, it was no one but the black corpse!

There is no doubt that there are black corpses hiding in the corner near them. This is not a good thing!

For a moment, the two of them were so shocked that they could almost see the fine beads of sweat on each other's forehead. After a while, the smell of Zhang Cheng went straight into Anyang's nose, a fruity scent of shower gel mixed with a light

The smell of sweat made Anyang's cheeks hot.

In such a dangerous situation, looking at the man's Adam's apple and collarbone so close at hand, Anyang suddenly had an illusion - I would have no regrets if I could die with this man.

Time passed minute by minute, but the black corpse outside the door never left.

Zhang Cheng and the two were forced to remain motionless. After a long time, their arms were sore and unbearable that they could no longer support themselves. At this moment, Zhang Cheng just hoped that Lao Shizi's prophecy was true. The black corpse only had a sense of smell and hearing was far beyond normal.

Human vision has not evolved, so the two of them can get away with it.

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed that one of the footsteps was missing. And some "rustling" sounds were approaching them. For a moment, Zhang Cheng's heart rang with alarm bells. He jumped up and pulled Anyang up like outside the door.

Run away.

"What's wrong?"

"Discovered! Run!"

"Roar!" "Uh uh uh..."

When they went out, the two almost collided head-on with three black corpses. Zhang Cheng, with quick eyes and quick hands, pulled Anyang through the arm of one black corpse and ran quickly before the black corpse could react.

"Ho ho!" "Bang!"

The next moment, a monkey-like zombie suddenly sprang out of the store, and the three black corpses were knocked down. The "ghost monkey" black corpse was obviously preparing to sneak attack Zhang Cheng and the two! It seems that they were silenced long ago.

, they have already been targeted!

The "Ghost Monkey" lay on the body of the corpse and smelled something wrong. It turned around and chased the two of them. It was very fast and chased behind them in the blink of an eye. At this time, Zhang Cheng pulled Anyang to hide to the side, and the Ghost Monkey started again.

It was thrown into the air and fell into the garbage pile.

At this time, three ordinary black corpses also surrounded them. The roar of the angry corpses was deafening and alarmed the black corpses in several blocks.

"Zhang Cheng, run away by yourself. I...I have sprained my ankle."

In a panic, Anyang sprained his right foot, and Zhang Cheng's face changed drastically. Surrounded by corpses, it was difficult for two normal people to escape. How could Zhang Cheng survive with her injury?

"Run quickly, or else everyone will

There's no way to escape." Anyang gritted his teeth, his eyes turning red in desperation.

"Take my hand." Zhang Cheng said bitterly, "Don't you still owe me a favor? Now I ask you to run!"

"Ho ho... ho!"

The first-order ghost monkey obviously wouldn't talk nonsense to them. It shook its head the next moment, and then rushed forward with its hands and feet. Zhang Cheng raised his hand and took out a pistol and opened fire directly. But the "ghost monkey" was V-shaped.

The Black Corpses are known for their speed. Unless their agility exceeds theirs, they will be like Zhang Cheng now, with all their bullets missing.

"Da da da."

"Zhang Cheng, I don't want you to pity me. You go, you go!"

Because of his anxiety, Anyang's fingers clenched tightly on the ground, and blood stains were visible between the nails. In seconds, Zhang Cheng had no time to think about it. He had not received any special military training, and his shooting during sports was completely inaccurate.

It can be said that in order to improve the accuracy, he stopped directly, lowered his body, knelt down and fired. The next moment, he was thrown to the ground by the ghost monkey!

"Zhang Cheng!"

Ordinary black corpses had already surrounded Anyang, but the latter only stared at Zhang Cheng who was knocked down with wide eyes. The next moment, she stood up as if with divine help and stumbled towards the direction of one person and one corpse.

When I went, I saw Zhang Cheng pushing away the black corpse of the "Ghost Monkey" that was pressing on him and sitting up.

"I said, can you stop calling my name so loudly?" Zhang Cheng stretched out his hand to wipe the blood on his face and said with a smile, "I'm so embarrassed."

"You..." Anyang was speechless as if he had seen a ghost.

"By luck, the last bullet hit." Zhang Cheng smiled and pointed out the big hole in the ghost monkey's forehead to her.

Zhang Cheng's dynamic plan is so detailed that he naturally takes into account the safety issues when surviving independently. According to his request, every time the rescue soldiers pass through a gathering point, they will mark and bury a piece of individual equipment. The military pistol in his hand

That's how it came about.

"Don't be stunned, run away." Zhang Cheng threw out his pistol and beat a black corpse all over his face. "There are no more bullets. Next we can only rely on punches and kicks."

"This man..."

Anyang laughed in his heart and stretched out his hand to pull the other person up. Although a person carrying another person was not moving very fast, Zhang Cheng was still a person with abilities, and he gradually pushed away the ordinary black corpse behind him.

At noon, the two came to a fashion store. Zhang Cheng kicked open the store door, piled the once expensive clothes on the ground, and then asked Anyang to sit down.

"It seems that no bones were injured and local braking is needed. Please wait a moment."

"Hey", seeing Zhang Cheng running out, Anyang panicked and didn't have time to stop him.

Fortunately, he ran back quickly. He didn't know where he ransacked a drugstore. He had some ice packs, sprays and fixtures in his arms. He didn't have a towel, so he pulled off one of his fashion sleeves and wrapped the ice pack on it.

At the opponent's ankle.

"hiss."

"What's wrong? Does it hurt?"

"One thing." Anyang watched Zhang Cheng bandaging himself with interest, and couldn't help but wonder, "Are these all learned from books? And shooting."

"Well, I've seen others operate it, and it's not difficult." Zhang Cheng raised his head and added with a smile, "As long as you master some skills."

"Okay," Anyang looked around at the bandaged ankle and said helplessly, "I seem to owe you another favor."

Zhang Cheng spread his hands and said, "I don't need your favor for the time being."

"What does it matter?" Anyang said mysteriously, "We'll talk about it later when you need it. The debt of gratitude is like a snowball. Maybe in the end you take my life or ask me to dedicate my body to you, and I will do the same."

Just obey your words~"

Saying this made Zhang Cheng a little embarrassed, and his hands suddenly had nowhere to put them.

Anyang laughed because of this and said: "It seems that only at times like this, I feel like you are a normal person."

She sighed: "If anyone is with you, they will be under a lot of pressure."

"Will it?" Zhang Cheng was a little confused.

While the two were chatting and joking, several footsteps suddenly sounded outside the window. Before the two could hide, five or six soldiers with guns and live ammunition rushed in. Zhang Cheng subconsciously protected Anyang behind him and confronted these people.

"You... who are you?" Anyang asked, looking at the black muzzle of the gun and desperately resisting the desire to raise his hands in surrender.

The leader was a burly man, wearing the black, blue, gray and white urban camouflage used only by airborne troops, but it could not hide the strong tendons under the clothes. He looked at Zhang Cheng and the two,

It seems that he is also observing.

The uniform tactical helmets, bulletproof vests, goggles, and various small radar and laser equipment completely indicate the identities of these people. Especially the two people in the middle, one fat and one thin. The thin man is wearing a mask and holding an exaggerated-looking sniper rifle.

, and another person

He was actually carrying a Vulcan cannon!

Oh my god, how did the elite of the army come here? Is it the government coming to rescue them?

In the flash of lightning, dozens of thoughts flashed through Anyang's mind, and his mood went from frightened to surprised, and finally he gradually became excited. This is a sequela of the peaceful times in China. People always have unconditional feelings for these compatriots in military uniforms.

trust and dependence.

It's a pity that these people's attention is only on Zhang Cheng.

The leading soldier asked: "Hey, which one of you is the 'Red Man'? We were ordered to pick you up."

Although the above did not clearly say whether the target of the mission was a man or a woman, it was expected to be a man.

"Red...man?"

Anyang was confused, but Zhang Cheng explained: "It's me, I'm Zhang Cheng, and Hongnan is my code name in the Science League."

"The phantom of knowledge is but the morning mist," he continued, watching closely for the other's reaction.

The man immediately said solemnly: "If it is not withered, it will not be defeated, and it is as charming as fire; if it is not prosperous, it will not be chaotic, and its posture will be like smoke."

Zhang Cheng then threw over a blue ID card, and the other party also threw back a red officer ID card. When Zhang Cheng opened it, he saw the words "Li Yishan, Captain and Company Commander of the Reconnaissance Company of the 215th Regiment of the Southern Qi Military Region" written on it.

Until then, both of them breathed a sigh of relief. Li Yishan signaled his men to put down their guns, stepped forward and held Zhang Cheng's hand tightly: "Academician Zhang Cheng, we have finally found you!"

"Captain Li, thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard work, it's not hard work," Li Yishan declined. "Academician Zhang's plan is very detailed. We rough guys are just following the instructions from above."

"Are you injured?" Li Yishan suddenly asked.

Zhang Cheng knew what he wanted to ask, so he replied: "We have not been bitten by the black zombies, don't worry. Thanks to the equipment you left at the last gathering point. But Anyang's right foot is sprained, I have already done it for her

Emergency treatment.”

Li Yishan nodded and asked others to take out a bulletproof vest from his backpack and help Zhang Cheng put it on.

"Skinny Monkey, go to the commanding heights to observe and find a safe retreat route. Chen Fa and Wang Shuo, you two are on guard outside."

"Yes, company commander!"

Li Yishan immediately urged: "Academician Zhang, if there is no problem, let's set off now. The corpses in Shashi have reacted abnormally recently, and I'm afraid something will change later."

At this time, Zhang Cheng looked at the body armor he was only wearing, but seemed to realize something. Then he retreated to Anyang, took a deep breath and asked, "Can't you take her with you?"

Li Yishan shook his head: "Sorry, the destination of this mission is top secret. Is she your wife?"

"no."

Li Yishan frowned and said, "Is that your girlfriend? Or is it your sister or acquaintance?"

Zhang Cheng and Anyang were speechless for a moment. Yes, what kind of relationship do they have? Refugees who are both survivors? Strangers who have known each other for a short time? To be honest, apart from each other's names, they know almost nothing about each other.

After a long time, Zhang Chengcai said quietly: "None of them... we just met a few days ago."

Li Yishan sighed: "I'm sorry, Academician Zhang Cheng. This is not in line with our rules."

"I beg you, at least send her to a safe base nearby."

The other party frowned and thought for a while, and finally agreed under Zhang Cheng's gaze: "Okay."

"Chen Fa?"

"arrive!"

"You and Wang Shuo are responsible for escorting this lady to a nearby shelter and setting off immediately after she recovers. After the mission is completed, we will contact you via satellite phone."

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

"Da Zhuang, Chen Liang, you and Shou Hou are coming with me first to escort Academician Zhang Cheng away. The helicopter is already waiting for us outside the city."

"yes!"

He also called Da Zhuang, that is, the tall and strong machine gunner, and took out a backpack, stuffed it with supplies and handed it to Anyang. He called the girl aside, handed over a pistol and gave some instructions.

At this time, Li Yishan reconfirmed: "Academician Zhang, if you have no other questions, please come with us. Staying here will only make it more dangerous."

"Okay, thank you."

Zhang Cheng finally turned to look at Anyang, and his mind was filled with every detail of the two of them surviving together since the "Advent Day". At the end, he smiled stiffly and said: "You must live. Remember, do you still owe me a favor?"

return."

Anyang also raised his face and smiled, with tears in his eyes and said: "I will."

"Boss, the route has been found."

At this time, the sniper Shouhou had returned from the reconnaissance. Li Yishan finally looked around at everyone and said: "Everyone is here, check the weapons! Academician Zhang, follow me closely. Da Zhuang, this time you are responsible for the rear cover."

"Set off!"
