The afternoon sun passed through the light clouds and fell on the Blue Moon Garden Community, which had been reduced to ruins.
The tall residential buildings in the past have turned into hills made of concrete fragments. Zombies who are always looking for prey wander around, sniffing for food.
At this moment, the roar of an engine broke the silence in the community, and all the zombies turned their heads towards the dark underground garage entrance.
They caught the traces of their prey.
The zombies that were closer even opened their mouths excitedly and waved their arms convulsively, preparing to welcome the prey that was about to come.
However, what they are waiting for is not fresh flesh and blood, but a silver-gray front made of alloy.
"Bang bang bang!"
A series of banging sounds started from the entrance and spread to the exit of the community.
The silver-gray car was like a roaring rhinoceros, knocking away any creature that dared to stand in front of it without any pressure.
Lu Yu, who was sitting in the cab, looked like a drunkard who had drunk fake wine, his expressionless poker face turned red.
"Slow down!"
With his hands tied, Zhang Tiehua struggled to hold on to the handle on the roof, trying to control his balance as much as possible in this crazy car.
But obviously, he failed.
The vehicle swerved left and right under the control of Lu Yu. Although most of the zombies blocking the road outside were knocked away, the people inside the vehicle were also "injured" seriously.
Even the petite Xiao Ran inevitably hit her forehead in the initial collision. She was a good girl and was holding the seat belt in front of her tightly, her blue-black pupils full of regret.
"Hold on tight, there's a big wave of zombies at the door, they're about to rush out!"
Zhang Tiehua's reminder fell completely on deaf ears to Lu Yu. He stepped down hard with his right foot, and the vehicle suddenly accelerated and crashed into the zombie group at the gate of the community.
After a violent jolt and collision, the silver-gray car finally broke out of the encirclement and drove smoothly on the road.
"Did the person who taught you how to drive drive a donkey cart before he became a coach?"
Holding his forehead in pain, Zhang Tiehua complained angrily.
It was very difficult to maintain his balance as his hands were tied with a clothesline.
Therefore, in the fierce collision just now, the forehead of this Northeastern man inevitably came into close contact with the cushion in front of him several times.
Although the car seat cushion purchased by Da Beitou was very soft, Zhang Tiehua's head was inevitably swollen due to such violent and frequent impacts.
Yu Libo, who was unconscious beside him, was bumped several times all over his body, but he was like a dead person, and such violent bumps did not wake him up.
However, bruises quickly appeared on the bumped area, which looked a little miserable.
"What's the matter? The instructor who taught me how to drive used to drive a bus. His skills are great!"
Without looking back, Lu Yu retorted, slamming on the brakes and stopping the car in the middle of the intersection.
"It would be great if I still have my phone... I can also use the evil map to navigate..."
Squinting at the rearview mirror, Lu Yu said to himself.
From the rearview mirror, I saw that the knocked down zombies behind the car were struggling to get up from the ground, and it looked like they would be chasing them soon.
The speed of the car was enough to throw away these slow-moving secondary infected bodies, so Lu Yu did not panic.
The most important thing right now is to identify the way forward.
It is embarrassing to say that as a local who grew up in N City, Lu Yu is not familiar with the surrounding areas of N City at all.
Therefore, without the help of navigation and maps, it is really difficult to successfully go to the Siming Mountain shelter in the broadcast.
"Hey Xiaoran, why don't you want to bring out the map on the table..."
With teeth chewed in his mouth, Lu Yu looked at the fork in front of him and hesitated to step on the accelerator.
"Ah, yes, yes, I should bring you all the supplies at home. If I had known that you were still a road idiot after living for twenty-seven years, I would have brought out all the maps on the table..."
After getting along with Lu Yu for a long time, the little Loli not only moved closer to him in terms of thinking mode, but also learned the characteristics of his poisonous tongue. If he could take advantage, he would never suffer.
"Why don't you leave? The zombies behind are catching up with you!"
Zhang Tiehua, who was sitting in the back seat, finally recovered from the pain. When he saw Lu Yu parked the car in the middle of the intersection, he immediately spoke anxiously.
"I don't know the road, Brother Hua... If we want to go to the Siming Mountain Refuge, which direction should we drive..."
"My mother..."
Hearing Lu Yu's answer, Zhang Tiehua almost fainted from anger and quickly opened his mouth to give directions.
"Turn right! Go to the west of the city first. After leaving the city, there is a highway entrance to Siming Mountain."
"okay!"
Lu Yu responded and turned the steering wheel sharply to the right.
The roar of the engine mixed with the sound of rubber tires rubbing against the ground was like a shot of stimulant injected into the zombies behind the car, and they all howled and accelerated their pace.
But they are destined to be unable to swallow the delicious flesh and blood in their open mouths.
Lu Yu and others drove away in their vehicle, leaving behind only the air mixed with car exhaust.
"Ha, go suck my exhaust!"
Seeing the zombies behind him being thrown away, Lu Yu honked the horn very unsteadily, feeling very beautiful.
"I can understand howling like a zombie, but honking the horn is a bit redundant, right? Those zombies can't understand your provocation, so aren't you afraid that the sound of the horn will attract zombies? Stupid Uncle Lu Yu..."
The little girl in the passenger seat complained promptly and gave Lu Yu a big eye roll.
"In the apocalypse, people are very depressed. They need to release their inner emotions in time. Howling and honking the horn are very helpful in calming the psychological..."
Facing Lu Yu's serious nonsense, Xiao Ran could only turn her beautiful eyes of different colors to express her inner speechlessness.
After getting rid of the zombie group, Lu Yu slowed down the speed of the car.
But before driving for five minutes, Lu Yu's face once again showed a puzzled look. He stared at the road ahead and asked without looking back.
"Huazi, where should I go next? I remember turning left is in the direction of the Chengxi Police Station. Is it right?"
The words dissipated in the carriage, and after a while, Lu Yu did not wait for Zhang Tiehua's answer.
"Hua Zi? Why don't you say anything? You don't know the road either..."
Slowly reducing the speed of the car, Lu Yu took the time to look in the rearview mirror.
It doesn't matter if you don't see it, Lu Yu's face suddenly stiffened when he saw it.
"Holy crap, why is he asleep at this time!"
Just as he said, Zhang Tiehua, who was full of life a few minutes ago, had already collapsed in the back seat.
The even snoring showed that this Northeastern man had fallen into a coma-like sleep, and it would be impossible to wake up for a while.
Without someone to guide him, Lu Yu had no choice but to temporarily stop the vehicle at the fork in the road and cast a questioning look at Xiaoran out of habit.
"What should I do next... The person who knows the way fell asleep... I don't know how to get to the Siming Mountain Shelter..."
As a pragmatic pessimist, Lu Yu has imagined many situations in which he fell into trouble.
For example, staying at home for a long time and being sieged by zombies makes it impossible to replenish daily necessities;
Or they are suddenly attacked by mutated creatures and cannot receive timely treatment;
These factors have one obvious thing in common, that is, they all come from the outside world.
Xiao is the person who thinks so much about Lu Yu, and he never thought that the reason that would really affect him would actually come from himself.
Natural road-crazy attributes.
In fact, this attribute is usually not serious in Lu Yu.
Before the disaster, the navigation software in smartphones could easily make up for Lu Yu's road-crazy nature. Even if he had never been there before, he could still reach his destination smoothly under the navigation's instructions.
But now is the end of the world without electricity and signals. In addition, Lu Yu's mobile phone had already been thrown into the braised chicken shop by him during the zombie luring incident. It was simply impossible for him to have a "bad map" to navigate online for him.
"The fact that you don't know the road...it does give me a headache..."
After looking at Lu Yu for two seconds, the little Loli also had a troubled look on her face.
Although she had seen the map and remembered most of the details, it was still a bit too reluctant to ask her to take over the position of "Evil Navigator".
vertex
Mainly because although the paper map I had seen was detailed, it could not detail every intersection. At best, it only clearly indicated which roads lead to the Siming Mountain Refuge.
But now she and Lu Yu were still in the urban area of N city. Even if Xiaoran knew which national highway to take, she had to leave the city first.
"If you are allowed to explore the road out of the city at will, judging from the current time, if everything goes well, we can only arrive before evening at the earliest..."
"But no one can guarantee that as soon as they arrive there, they will be able to find the Siming Mountain shelter and be admitted."
"Staying in the wild at night when the lighting conditions drop sharply will greatly reduce the probability of survival, which is very unwise..."
Xiaoran murmured, quickly analyzing the situation in front of him.
"The probability of survival will be greatly reduced... That's not possible... I'm very afraid of death..."
Lu Yu's head shook like a rattle. Now that Zhang Tiehua and Yu Libo had fallen asleep, only he and Xiao Ran were left, so Lu Yu's whole state became much more relaxed and he began to smile playfully.
Even Lu Yu himself didn't realize that in the eyes of others, he was usually so cold and difficult to deal with.
But in front of Xiaoran, he can act as warm as the big brother next door.
"It's useless to be afraid of death. The situation is right in front of you. If you want to blame me, I can only blame you for being a road idiot."
After replying angrily to Lu Yu, the little Loli sighed and began to think about the next strategy.
But before she could think about it for long, Lu Yu suddenly stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the intersection on the left.
After looking around, Xiao Ran found that the zombie closest to the car was also twenty steps away, and there was nothing threatening them at all.
The girl was confused and asked.
"What are you doing? Why did you drive suddenly?"
"Because I'm afraid of death..."
After answering Xiao Ran's question, Lu Yu raised his eyebrows, looking confident...
