After the off-road vehicle passed the toll station, Qin Xian parked the vehicle on the side of the road and waited for Lu Xinyi to check the map and choose a new route.
"There is a gas station over there." Du Heng, who was in the back row, pointed to a place not far to the left and said, "Should we collect some gasoline?"
Lu Xinyi looked up at the direction he was pointing and said, "Then go to the gas station."
There is a Chinese restaurant on one side of the gas station near the toll station, and a row of residential buildings on the other side. There are also residential buildings across the street, and there are various shops on the first floor.
This is a county town. Although it is far less vast and prosperous than City H, it is still quite lively.
But now, not a single figure can be seen on the road, not even a zombie.
Five people got out of the car one after another.
Lu Xinyi said: "Wanzhi, you take Forsythia to the small supermarket to collect supplies. Qin Xian and Brother Heng will load the gasoline with me."
"good."
Everyone split up. Li Wanzhi and Xia Lianqiao went to the small supermarket, Qin Xian and Du Heng went to find oil barrels, and Lu Xinyi was checking the gas dispenser.
There was quite a lot of oil in the tanker, so she took out the empty oil barrel from the space.
She had just filled up an oil drum when Qin Xian and Du Heng came back carrying four oil drums each.
"I only found these few usable oil barrels." Qin Xian said, placing the oil barrels in front of Lu Xinyi.
"It's okay. Just pack as much as you can. I still have some leftover oil drums here."
Lu Xinyi continued to fill the oil barrel with oil. After filling one barrel, he put it into the space.
"I'll do it." Du Heng stepped forward and took the oil gun from Lu Xinyi's hand. "Qin Xin, you've had a hard time driving. Please rest with Xin Yi."
Lu Xinyi and Qin Geng did not object.
"I'm going to the small supermarket to have a look."
Just as Lu Xinyi finished speaking, suddenly, her eyes turned cold, she grabbed Du Heng's strong arm and pulled him aside.
Whoosh——
A kitchen knife as wide as the palm of your hand flew from nowhere and landed where Du Heng was standing just now.
"Someone is attacking!" Du Heng said in surprise when he saw this, and immediately looked around with vigilant eyes.
Lu Xinyi and Qin Zhi also observed their surroundings vigilantly, and the three of them quickly hid behind the off-road vehicle.
"It's coming from that direction." Lu Xinyi pointed to the residential building opposite the gas station.
The distance is not too far, probably only about ten meters in a straight line.
However, they were still unable to determine which room in the residential building the attacker was in.
"Sister, we-"
"Forsythia be careful!"
Xia Lianqiao had just walked out of the supermarket after collecting supplies, when a kitchen knife flew towards her again.
Fortunately, Li Wanzhi quickly grabbed Xia Lianqiao and avoided the kitchen knife flying in the air.
But if you look carefully, you can see that the kitchen knife landed in front of the toes of where Xia Lianqiao was standing just now.
It seemed that the other party did not intend to kill them, but just wanted to scare them and threaten them?
Lu Xinyi thought to himself, casting his sharp gaze at the residential building opposite.
This time, she saw the other party's position clearly.
At the fourth-floor window of the residential building facing them.
After the opponent threw the kitchen knife, he quickly hid behind the wall. It could be seen that the opponent was very cautious.
Lu Xinyi winked at Qin Geng and handed him a pistol equipped with a silencer.
After Qin Xian took the pistol, he immediately shot at the window.
The bullet hit the wall, leaving a deep bullet hole, which also made the other party afraid to show up easily.
Lu Xinyi took advantage of this moment and teleported to the residential building.
Then, she teleported again and climbed to the window edge of the fourth floor.
At the same time, Qin Xian also stopped attacking.
Seeing that the attack had stopped, the other party cautiously poked his head out, but unexpectedly, a tall and slender figure quickly climbed through the window.
"ah--"
Lu Xinyi looked at the other person with a cold face as his long and slender fingers clasped the other person's neck.
But when she saw it, she couldn't help but be stunned.
The person she grabbed by the neck and pressed against the wall turned out to be a little girl about the same age as Xia Lianqiao.
The little girl was only as tall as her chest. Her skin was sallow and her hair was dry and frizzy. She looked as skinny as a stick, which was obviously caused by long-term malnutrition.
The little girl opened her big eyes, full of fear, and her body was shaking uncontrollably. She was obviously extremely scared.
After Lu Xinyi looked at it, he quickly looked away and said coldly: "Why did you sneak attack on us?"
She would not show mercy just because the other party was a fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old girl.
It is an indisputable fact that this person attacked them secretly.
The little girl pursed her lips and said nothing, not only because she was afraid but also because she didn't want to speak.
"Are you going to tell me?" Lu Xinyi said, tightening his grip on her neck.
Suddenly, the little girl's dry, sallow complexion gradually turned red. She couldn't help but cough violently because of the difficulty in breathing.
The coughing sound also attracted the attention of others outside the room.
There was a rapid knock on the door, and a man's voice came from outside the door.
"Ning Ning, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"Ning Ning, open the door for dad!"
Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of banging on the door.
The man knocked several times in succession, and finally the door, which was not strong enough, was opened by him.
A man in his forties with an unshaven beard staggered into the room.
Behind the man was a woman who was also about forty years old. Next to the woman stood a little girl of five or six years old.
From the looks of it, this should be a family of four.
The four of them looked malnourished, as if a gust of wind could blow them away.
The man walked into the room and saw his daughter being choked, and immediately became angry.
Regardless, he rushed over to tear Lu Xinyi apart.
But he was no match for Lu Xinyi.
Lu Xinyi only pushed him lightly, pushing him back two steps before staggering to the ground.
"Dad!" Seeing this, the little girl finally spoke, "Don't hurt my dad!"
Lu Xinyi relaxed his grip on his hand and glanced over the family of four with his cold eyes.
The little girl still looked terrified, but she still looked at her father worriedly.
Likewise, the man looked at the little girl nervously and worriedly.
The woman outside the door was holding the little girl tightly, worried but afraid to enter the house.
"Why did you sneak attack on us?" Lu Xinyi turned back and looked at the little girl.
"Sneak attack? What sneak attack?" Before the little girl could answer, the man asked in confusion, "Ning Ning, what did you do when you locked yourself in the room just now?"
The little girl named Ning Ning suddenly burst into tears and choked with sobs: "I'm sorry! It's all my fault. I shouldn't have attacked you! If you want revenge, come to me. Please let my family go!"
At the same time, the four of Qin and Zheng opened the door of the house and quickly came to the door of the room. The frightened woman came to the man with the little girl in her arms.
Ning Ning was also frightened by the intrusion of Qin Geng and Du Heng, especially the tall and powerful Du Heng.
When Lu Xinyi saw this, he sneered: "Are you scared now?"
