Except for Zhang Tiehua, who was standing in front of the car, the other three people frowned after hearing the sound.
Because the front end of the metal roller used as a test object is not smooth, and Zhang Tiehua spent most of his energy when attacking zombies, the trajectory of the roller movement is not very uniform. Even because of the weight, the sharpness of the front end is not visible on the car. The roof squeaked and scraped, leaving ugly scratches on the surface of the roof.
The fist-sized mushrooms did not show any abnormal reaction after being swept by the roller. They were smashed and swept away like ordinary mushrooms, and the mycelium blanket underneath them fell to the ground in pieces.
"Hey, it's just an ordinary mushroom. Just sweep it away with a stick and you'll be fine."
Seeing that nothing unusual happened in front of him, Zhang Tiehua lowered his last bit of vigilance, and while speeding up his sweeping movements, he said to the three people not far away.
"It seems that there is really no problem..."
Looking at the light yellow debris falling on the ground, Lu Yu and Xiao Ran looked at each other and nodded slightly.
Just as the two of them were about to step forward and take a closer look, Yu Libo's trembling sound suddenly came from behind, followed by the sound of his knees plopping down.
Lu Yu and Xiao Ran turned their heads strangely and saw the thin Yu Libo kneeling on the ground, his body swaying constantly.
Because Lu Yu and Xiao Ran turned around with the flashlight beam, they were particularly conspicuous in the dark underground garage.
"Libo? What's wrong with you!"
Zhang Tiehua, who was not far away, also noticed something was wrong with a few people. He immediately stopped cleaning the germ carpet and asked.
"me……"
Yu Libo lowered his head, his stuttering voice filled with endless fear.
"He seems...injured..."
The blue-black eyes narrowed slightly, and a word came out of Xiaoran's mouth.
Just as the little Loli said, the cardboard between Yu Libo's legs and abdomen had been completely torn, with only a small amount of tape still attached to the fragments, hanging feebly by the side.
Previously, because the light was dim and everyone's attention was focused on other places, they did not pay attention to Yu Libo's situation.
But now that the beam was focused on Yu Libo's body, Xiao Ran and Lu Yu easily discovered the wounds hidden under the damaged cardboard.
"Are you injured? Could it be that you were scratched when you were walking through the zombies? It's impossible. Although those zombies have sharp claws, they can only grab some paper and tape at most, and they don't have much attack power. You guessed it..."
Zhang Tiehua took back the metal roller and walked towards Lu Yu and others.
"That's because the paper wrapped around you is normal white paper, while the paper wrapped around Yu Libo is thick cardboard..."
Lu Yu spoke calmly, without any emotion in his tone.
Sympathy? Lu Yu would not sympathize with Yu Libo at all. When he wrapped the paper around his body, although he did not say it explicitly, the choice he gave was already clear.
If Yu Libo didn't choose to believe it, he would have to bear the consequences himself.
gloat? It's even more impossible. Although Lu Yu doesn't think he's a good person, he really doesn't mean to harm the other party. At most, he just wants to protect himself and doesn't want to attract too much attention from others.
A smile appeared in Lu Yu's eyes, but was quickly suppressed by his good concentration.
Now that an infection has occurred, some things that were not necessary to do now become logical.
"Cardboard should have better defense..."
Zhang Tiehua didn't know Lu Yu's inner activities at this moment. After hearing the other party's explanation, the expression on his face became more and more confused.
"Huh, I'm too lazy to explain to you. Anyway, a bad situation has happened. No matter how much we discuss the reasons, we can't change Yu Libo's injury.
fact. "
Looking away from Yu Libo, Lu Yu's red phoenix eyes directly met Zhang Tiehua's surprised gaze.
"By the way, I'll tell you some bad news. Your situation is no different from Yu Libo's."
"What? What are you talking about? Why did it suddenly hit me again? I wasn't injured, not even a piece of skin was broken!"
Being glanced at by Lu Yu, Zhang Tiehua shuddered unconsciously, and his voice suddenly became stuttering.
"It is true that you were not injured, but during the breakout process, was your body contaminated with a lot of mucus from the corpses? If I guessed correctly, you might have inevitably eaten a lot."
"So what if I eat it? I'm not injured..."
Zhang Tiehua's face turned a little pale. During the days when he was hiding in Liangyou Supermarket and waiting for rescue, he had seen zombies chasing and biting humans who were running for their lives, and he also knew what would happen to those bitten humans.
But there was always a trace of luck in his heart, thinking that he just accidentally swallowed some of the zombie's mucus and was not bitten or scratched.
Generally in movies, isn't it true that only those bitten or caught by zombies are at risk of infection?
After hearing Zhang Tiehua's answer, Lu Yu's expression remained unchanged, and he just shook his head slowly.
This seemingly careless action, in Zhang Tiehua's eyes, was a complete death sentence.
"But, aren't you also contaminated with zombie mucus? According to you, you are also at risk of infection!"
Zhang Tiehua's eyes wandered, and he suddenly caught a bit of black mucus on Lu Yu's face, as if grasping a life-saving straw, he said loudly.
"Yeah, so we're also at risk of getting infected."
Lu Yu shrugged and said calmly.
The indifferent expression on the young man's face immediately made Zhang Tiehua freeze in place when he saw the dawn.
Is the kid in front of him playing a trick on him? How could anyone remain so calm when hearing the news that their death was imminent?
Unless you're crazy!
This young man's mind must be abnormal!
Seeing the hope disappearing rapidly in Zhang Tiehua's eyes, Lu Yu paused and knew it was time for him to continue speaking.
"But don't worry, after being infected with the virus, you will not 100% turn into a zombie. There is still a certain probability that you will recover."
"Not 100% turning into a zombie? What do you mean?"
Everything was just as Lu Yu expected. When Zhang Tiehua heard that he might not become a zombie, the fire ignited in his eyes again.
"I have special medicine."
Lu Yu opened and closed his thin lips up and down, and spit out five words calmly.
"What?! Do you have a special medicine? Is it a special medicine for treating infections? Great, give it to us quickly!"
Hearing this, Zhang Tiehua and Yu Libo immediately became excited. Yu Libo, who saw the dawn of hope, even knelt down in front of Lu Yu and hugged Lu Yu's calf pitifully.
"Brother Lu, save me, please save me..."
Facing the excitement of the two of them, Lu Yu remained as dull as a piece of wood. Except for the blinking of his eyes, his expression did not change at all.
Yu Libo is a person who is good at observing words and emotions. Seeing Lu Yu's unmoved look, he thought that the other party wanted to make some conditions. He rolled his eyes and gave his promise.
"Brother Lu, if you save me, I will be a cow or a horse for you. Oh no, I will be a dog for you! I will be a dog for you!!"
To achieve his goals by lowering his posture, this is Yu Libo's tried and tested method.
But if Lu Yu really saved him, would he be used as a dog to the other party?
That's another way of saying it.
"You don't need to drag me, I don't have any special medicine."
Before Yu Libo could say a more serious promise, Lu Yu dug his ears as if impatient and added.
"My Healing Game"
“I don’t have any special medicine on me, so where is the special medicine?”
Zhang Tiehua finally understood the meaning of Lu Yu's words, and the surprise on his face slowly turned into suspicion.
"It's at my house."
After looking behind him, he found that the entrance was still empty as before, so Lu Yu continued.
"But isn't your home already in ruins? Then how can we get the special medicine!"
Zhang Tiehua, who was impatient, gradually became irritable and his tone began to become unkind.
"Don't worry, I already observed it when I came here. Although the residential buildings in the community have collapsed, my home should not have been too badly damaged."
"Because I live on the second floor, the floor is very low. I think as long as the passage is not destroyed, we should still be able to enter the home and get the special medicine."
"But it's definitely too dangerous for me to go alone. Maybe I don't get the special medicine, but I might be attacked by zombies and die."
"So in order to survive, let's unite again and go to my house."
After saying this, a sunny smile broke out on Lu Yu's face, instantly changing his previous dull and indifferent temperament.
"Okay! You lead the way!"
Zhang Tiehua did not hesitate and immediately nodded in agreement.
But Yu Libo behind him was dumbfounded.
It wasn't that he didn't want to drink Lu Yu to get the special medicine, but it was because the wounds on his body had begun to hurt, and strange soreness spread all over his body, making his already weak mobility even weaker.
Putting aside whether Lu Yu could get the special medicine, Yu Libo couldn't bear the unknown journey just to get the medicine.
Because now he doesn't even have the strength to stand.
"Brother Lu, can I, can I wait for you in the car... I really can't walk..."
Looking at Lu Yu with a kind expression, Yu Libo spoke cautiously.
Now that his fate is in the opponent's hands, he naturally doesn't dare to speak in the same rude tone as before.
"Okay, just stay in the car. The key is with me anyway, so you can't drive away. Even if you encounter a zombie, as long as you don't make a sound, it won't kill you for a while."
Yu Libo, who thought the other party would refuse, waited for Lu Yu's very reasonable reply. The change in the young man's attitude in front of him caught him off guard and made him doubt whether he was dreaming.
"Time is precious. Now that you've decided, let's leave as soon as possible. If you start from here, I remember to walk forward and then turn right..."
While speaking, Lu Yu had already walked several steps away, and the little Loli behind him naturally clung to her like a shadow, never missing a step.
Zhang Tiehua glanced at the thin man kneeling on the ground, handed over the flashlight in his hand, picked up the metal roller and caught up with Lu Yu.
The two beams of light quickly separated, and Yu Libo's surroundings became quiet.
Listening to the footsteps that were getting further away, Yu Libo hurriedly struggled to crawl towards the car, and finally opened the door of the car before the beam of light disappeared around the corner.
Although Yu Libo had deliberately avoided the mushroom fragments scattered on the ground, he still inevitably got some of them because of his panic and unchanged movements.
Fortunately, he finally entered the car. After confirming that the door was locked, the thin man began to wait for a long time.
And in the darkness that he didn't see, little bits of blood fell on the light yellow hyphae. In just one breath, the blood stains were covered by more hyphae and disappeared completely...
