The snow fell overnight and everything was silent.
The survivors woke up from their slumber, but the ground beneath their feet fell into a deep sleep at some point.
The fog and grilles on the car windows have been wiped away, and everyone is staring at the snow-white world outside the window.
White, clean, clear and silent.
Not like the human world.
But it is also full of unknown dangers.
Pale, clean, cold, dead.
This is not the polar regions and there are no glaciers.
The world they live in shouldn't be like this.
Suddenly, the sound of a car engine starting broke the tranquility of the moment.
Jin Yan and his team drove away from the place one after another.
Some other cars followed directly, while others were still hesitant.
"The temperature in Haicheng has dropped to below zero. Do you need to talk about the situation in the north? If you go north at this time, are you sure you are not going to die?"
"Yes, we have a tropical climate here. It's so hot all year round, and now it's snowing, not to mention the north where winters have been getting longer and longer in recent years. I'm afraid I'll freeze to death!"
"But if you stay, can you survive?"
"Although many people have left Haicheng before the heavy rain, and I don't know how many people have left in the past few days, there are still many people in the city. Even if only one tenth of those people are bitten and mutated, to us, it is still A dead end."
"But we only have so many supplies in the car and we don't know where the destination is. I don't know how to hold on."
After a brief silence, one person said: "We don't know where the destination is, but the girl in front is Huo Biao's daughter. The place she wants to go must be safe."
These words gave many people hope again.
But soon one person questioned: "Huo Biao's daughter is protected by so many experts, but we only have ourselves. Just because she can reach her destination does not mean that we can too. Even if we can persist until then, who can guarantee that we will? Will we be able to survive by then?"
"Yes, according to the current situation, the environment we are facing is getting worse and worse, the weather is getting worse, and supplies are getting less and less. They may even become rare items that are hard to find in the future. There are only so many resources, and one more person can If there is more consumption, will they be willing for us to take a share of the pie?"
Everyone was silent again.
A few minutes later, someone was so cold that he said: "Vote to decide. Those who are willing to stay, stay, and those who are willing to leave, leave. Anyway, don't waste your time here. I don't want to die in such a white world." "
On the other side, Jin Yan and his group were walking in front, with Li Dong and his three cars following closely behind them. Amid Zhao Shulin's exclamation, the two cars collided.
The car driven by Xue Ling was hit.
The butt of the car was dented a bit, but it didn't affect anything, and at this point, unless someone was crazy, no one would stop the car to investigate the person responsible for the accident.
Xue Ling continued to drive away as if nothing had happened, but Li Dong behind him patted the steering wheel a little irritably.
After driving for half an hour, her hands were too cold to feel, so she came up with the idea of crashing the car.
She thought that if two cars collided, the person in front would definitely come to her and ask for an explanation, even if it was for compensation or supplies, so that she could express her difficulties. Neither of the two men in the car could drive. Damn it. It's really difficult for her, a weak girl.
Moreover, the car was damaged and there was no way to continue driving. If the people in front were not so hard-hearted, as long as she said something along the way, they might be able to sit in the car in front.
Huo Jinyan is very annoying.
But Huo Jinyan's cars, people, and materials are all the best.
If you can join Huo Jinyan's team like this, you will have completed the task assigned by your father.
But this plan failed.
Li Dong kicked the brakes in an extremely despicable manner, but he forgot that his feet were numb from the cold. As soon as he kicked the foot, numbness suddenly came up, and his whole body suddenly felt bad.
Zhao Shulin and Li Yunqing looked at it and sighed helplessly.
Finally, it was Li Yunqing who said, "Miss Li, you sit in the passenger seat and I'll drive."
Li Dong's expression softened a little, and he said worriedly: "Your injury is not healed yet, can you drive?"
Li Yunqing: "It doesn't matter where you drive. If Lao Zhao and I are both dead, you will have to rely on yourself..."
"Forget it, I'll drive." Li Dong said discouragedly.
Although these two people are not very capable, fortunately they are not bad people, and they keep their promises. With them around, they can always deter other people with bad intentions.
Otherwise, if they died, she would be truly alone.
Li Dong rubbed his hands, asked Li Yunqing to bring her the clothes on the back and put them on, and then continued driving.
It wasn't until noon that they arrived at a small county town.
This county has a large area, but its population is very small. Only less than 20,000 people have moved over the years, and even fewer people actually stay in the county.
It's called a county town, but it's actually worse than a town in a prosperous city, or even a village below a town.
As there are fewer and fewer people, the economy of the small county has long been stagnant. In the past few years, it has become even more dilapidated.
If it weren't for the railroad tracks passing through here, I'm afraid this small place would have been forgotten long ago.
Reko parked the car in front of a department store, "Miss, you guys sit in the car now, I'll go down and check the situation."
"Don't look, there's no one around for a hundred miles," Jin Yan said.
Zaixu frowned, "I have learned about this county before. Data from three years ago show that the permanent population here is about a thousand. But we drove in and saw almost no traces that could prove that anyone lived here."
Ye Liting: "The city is deserted, and there are small-scale farmlands in the suburbs. Those who remain here may be self-sufficient and will not come to the city often."
Jin Yan: "We'll find out when we go down and take a look."
After they got off the bus, everyone in the other cars also got off.
The temperature has still not risen, but this small county town is located among the mountains, and the wind and snow from all sides cannot easily penetrate, so the human body does not feel that cold.
"Is this really the county seat?" Zhou Xia turned around in a circle and looked at the department store in front of him, which looked like a world-famous building, his eyes full of surprise.
Mu Lan touched her head and said, "This place was not like this originally. It was only after resources were concentrated in super cities like Central City that it slowly declined and became like this."
The door of the department store was covered with dust, and two characters on the signboard were missing. The original color of the light cords exposed outside was no longer visible.
Going inside, the lobby on the first floor was strewn with various counters, tables, chairs, and glass. They were all big, heavy, and difficult to move. Everything was covered with dust and looked like it was patinated. .
Obviously, no one has been here for a long time.
I just don’t know when it started to be abandoned.
Thanks to the two ladies "Feng Qing Yueying" and "Other Aegean Sea" for their support ^-^
