Volume 1 Steady the Waves Chapter 8 The Hemp Rope in the Sky

Everything that happened in the hardware store was clearly seen by Wei Lai, who was lying on the roof opposite, through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window.

This kind of separation between life and death that he had only seen in TV dramas made him feel a little bit regretful, but it was just a little bit.

Because according to his observation, the simple glass window was already trembling slightly, and it might not last long.

The four people in the hardware store seemed to be aware of this and were urgently discussing countermeasures.

When it comes to luck, you really can’t blame others!

The streets are full of townhouses, but the hardware store is an exception.

This place used to live in a nail house, and this building was built only after negotiation, so there were no floors connecting the left and right. This is why they did not leave from the roof of the building. They are considered

Completely trapped inside.

People in the store were running around anxiously.

The people on the roof also looked sad.

Wei Lai really wanted to save them, and it had nothing to do with his good intentions. After all, in this time when zombies are everywhere, if these brothers and sisters can help each other, the chance of survival will be greater.

Boom!

The sound of stones hitting the rolling shutter door was heard, causing the zombies to look sideways. Even a few people in the house immediately stopped arguing and looked around. They were very sure that the movement just now was definitely not caused by zombies.

"There's someone on the roof of the building opposite!"

The motor was closest to the glass window, and he saw Wei Lai opposite him at a glance. He was jumping up and down and pointing to the roof of the building opposite, looking excited as if he was about to be saved.

Li Wu walked over quickly and was overjoyed when he saw Wei Lai's exposed head: "Come on, let's go to the roof too."

After a while, four figures appeared on the roof of the building opposite.

This was the first time in a few days that Wei Lai, who met a normal person, greeted him like a businessman, "Brothers, are you leaving?"

Ma Da, who just kept saying that he wanted to take Su Guangwei with him, saw that he had hope of survival and immediately replied: "Brother, we do want to leave. But look at the crowd below, it's really impossible to leave.

Fall. You have to think of a way to save us!"

Wei Lai first stood back and made sure that the zombies below could not see him, then he pulled his neck and shouted, "What do you have over there?"

It seemed like he wasn't afraid at all of being heard by the zombies below.

In fact, it was indeed the case. Such a big movement only caused the zombies to look up one after another. After scanning around and finding no target, they concentrated on knocking on the glass window that was about to be overwhelmed.

"We have a rope! As long as you can help us tie it to the third floor opposite, we can use the rope to climb over." Calm Li Wu replied.

Wei Lai stretched his head and glanced downstairs: "Hurry up, the doors and windows on the first floor can't last long."

After the words fell, the four of them looked at me and I looked at you, but no one spoke.

Five minutes later, Li Wu, who was still the bravest, went downstairs and brought a bundle of hemp rope that was nearly as thick as his wrist. After tying a knot at the end of the rope, he started gesticulating towards the opposite side.

The hemp rope whimpered as he turned it, and the other three people looked at each other in confusion.

"You can't throw this away at all."

The motor is like a basket, spinning in circles in a hurry.

Li Wu, who tried several times but failed to throw it over, did not give up. Although he was so anxious that he was sweating on his forehead, he still tried again and again.

"If you can't make it, you'll die if you try again!"

Another young man couldn't stand it anymore. He stepped forward and took the hemp rope from Li Wu's hand. He took a few steps back, ran to the edge of the roof, and threw the knot out.

"Come again, it's just a little bit closer."

Wow!

Just when Wei Lai missed the knot that he had just thrown to the railing, there was a sudden sound of shattering glass windows downstairs, and the group of zombies that had been blocked for a long time swarmed in.

"Hurry up, they're in!" Wei Lai shouted loudly.

"then!"

The moment Wei Lai raised his head, a sharpened iron rod flew straight towards his head.

"grass!"

Wei Lai didn't have time to curse the person on the other side as to whether he was accurate or not, and stepped on the iron bar with his quick eyes and hands.

"It's over! Throw it over!"

Ma Da, who had not been of any help, almost jumped up with joy, pointed to the opposite side and said. Li Wu sat on the ground, holding his body with his hands and breathing heavily, with a hint of disaster on his previously indifferent face.

A smile for the rest of my life.

He took out the iron rod that almost poked him and pinned it on his lower back. After Wei Lai pulled the hemp rope to a sufficient length, he first tied a slipknot from the railing on the roof. The hanging length was just right on the third floor window.

.

Then he turned around and ran downstairs.

After a while, with a loud knocking sound, Wei Lai reappeared, already at the window on the third floor. He grabbed the hemp rope and pulled hard, and the slipknot on the roof suddenly opened. The rope was just like that.

Pulled into the house.

One minute later!

Wei Lai, who appeared at the window again, waved his hand and shouted softly: "Come on!"

the other side…

Several people took off their coats one after another and looked at the hemp rope that sloped down from the roof of the fourth floor to the third floor opposite.

"Who leaves first?" Li Wu asked.

"I'll go first. I'll go over and hold the rope for you."

Ma Da turned his head secretly and found that the other two people did not answer, so he immediately opened his mouth and said.

Li Wu looked at Ma Da with his head lowered and smiled, without saying anything. Then he turned to look at the other two young people and arranged: "Xiaobing is second, Shunzi is third, and I am last! Hurry up.

Yes, let’s go!”

Half a minute later, the fat motor carefully climbed over the guardrail on the roof, wrapped the rope with the clothes he had taken off, and cheered himself up with sweat on his forehead.

As soon as I closed my eyes, I kicked my feet and slid out along the rope.

The slightly fat body crashed into the window and landed on the sofa that Wei Lai pushed over to brake for them. The impact was so strong that the fat man almost lost his breath due to the impact.

There was no time to pay attention to this guy who obviously didn't install a navigation system for himself. Wei Lai, who was standing at the window, looked downstairs and shouted: "Next one, hurry up!"

Two minutes later, Li Wu, who was waiting for the last one to come over, put his feet on the sofa to stop his body, and nimbly let go of the rope and got off the rope.

The zombies on the opposite side also just broke open the small door on the roof. They swarmed to the edge of the roof, and kept roaring after finding no one.

The fate of that young man named Su Guangwei can be imagined.

But the speed of life and death between humans and zombies finally came to an end because Li Wu and others were one step ahead. This can be considered gratifying.

He casually pulled out the iron rod from his waist and handed it to Li Wu. Wei Lai threw the cigarette case in his hand over.

"Wei Lai!"

"Li Wu!"

After simply announcing his name, Li Wu put the iron rod under his arm. Without being polite to Wei Lai, he lit a cigarette and turned his head to observe the situation on the other side.

"Don't look at it, we can't defeat them for the time being!"

Wei Lai followed him to the window, aimed at the head of a zombie downstairs, and flicked the cigarette butt in his hand.

Hit the target!

This caused the zombie to make an unpleasant cry.

Li Wu's mood seemed a little low at this time, and the spongy cigarette butt was clenched tightly between his teeth: "There is still one of us inside."

"Don't say he's dead. Even if he's still alive, we can't save him with such serious injuries!"

Wei Lai, who saw everything from the rooftop, of course knew who he was talking about, and answered the question very cold-bloodedly.

In fact, Li Wu himself knew about this. He just felt a little guilty. He had brought the man out properly, but he had not brought him back safely.

But that was the result, so he just nodded with a straight face and said no more!

Upon seeing this, Wei Lai closed the curtains so as not to reveal the location of himself and others. He took out a bottle of water from his backpack and handed it to Li Wu and asked, "Do you have somewhere to go?"

Ma Da, who was squatting on the ground and wrapping his cigarette butt in a big mouth, raised his head and said, "We were hiding in the Haokelai Restaurant on another street. There are still more than a dozen people there."

Upon hearing that there were so many people, Wei Lai just silently thought about it in his mind and stopped talking. Then he tightened the paper armor on his body, took off his backpack and threw it to Li Wu.

"There is some food and water in there. Since you have somewhere to go, I won't keep you here. We will see you later!"

After that, turn around and leave!

"Thanks!"

Li Wu squeezed his backpack, looked at Wei Lai's back and said.

Different from Li Wu's indifference, when he saw his savior was about to leave, Ma Da rolled his eyes, stood up and asked: "Brother, where are you? If you can't, come to our place. We can also take care of each other."

.”

Wei Lai, who had already opened the door, paused, turned around and looked at Ma Da with a hopeful look on his face. He thought for a while and replied:

"Building B, 201."

After saying that, he went out without any nostalgia.
