The silver-haired old man's legs and feet were not very flexible. It took him two attempts to crawl out of the hole.
During the whole process, Xian Yuqi and Li Baiyi just watched and had no intention of helping.
Although the two of them are very powerful, they still need to be vigilant.
Otherwise, I would have lived so many years in vain.
When the silver-haired survivor stood still on the floor, Li Baiyi and Xian Yuqi poked their heads out from left to right, looking past the old man's body and looking behind him.
Ranwen
It turns out that the bottom of the floor is not solid, but there is another underground space.
At a glance, you can see some wine jars placed there, which seems to be a small wine cellar.
"I didn't expect that the darkroom below was actually a wine cellar..."
Li Baiyi and Xian Yuqi murmured to each other and glanced at each other with knowing smiles on their faces.
The two of them have lived in this world for more than one hundred and sixty years. If there is any hobby that they cannot give up, it is only wine.
However, the current situation is not suitable for drinking and drinking. After all, there are still serious things to do.
So the two old men suppressed their desires and turned their gazes back to the front.
At this time, the silver-haired old man who climbed out of the cellar finally stood up straight and saw the two people in front of him clearly.
"I knew the government wouldn't give up on us. I, eh... aren't you soldiers?"
Looking at the black and white robes worn by Xian Yuqi and Li Baiyi, the old man's eyes widened, and his face was filled with expressions of hesitation and hesitation.
If you are a soldier, you should wear a military uniform.
Even if he is not wearing a military uniform, he should not look like himself.
Thinking of this, a hint of suspicion appeared in the eyes of the silver-haired old man.
"Ahem, of course we are not soldiers, but what does it matter? Soldiers or ordinary people, if they can save you, aren't they considered good people?"
Li Baiyi coughed twice, flicked his sleeves, and his immortal look suddenly came online.
"Uh...that's right. My name is Yuan Yueping. What do you call them?"
Probably being swayed by Li Baiyi's calm and calm appearance, Yuan Yueping subconsciously nodded in agreement and introduced himself very politely.
"Li Baiyi."
"Xianyu Qi."
Li Baiyi and Xian Yuqi each reported their names without writing.
However, after announcing his name, before Yuan Yueping could say any words of gratitude, Xianyu Qi spoke first and asked quickly.
"Brother Yuan, why are you hiding in the wine cellar? Where are the other people in the village?"
Hearing Xian Yuqi's question, Yuan Yueping's smile froze for a moment, then he sighed and said in a trembling voice.
"Everyone else... everyone else should be dead..."
"All dead?"
Li Baiyi and Xian Yuqi were not surprised by this answer, but their brows still furrowed involuntarily.
"In other words, you are the only living person in this village? But how do you survive in this wine cellar? Without our arrival, Brother Yuan, you shouldn't be able to get out of the cellar, right?"
Li Baiyi glanced at the bookshelf broken in half on the ground and said with some suspicion.
He could feel the aura on Yuan Yueping's body and understood that he was just an ordinary old man.
For an ordinary old man, it is simply impossible to push open the bookshelf and get out of the basement.
"Indeed...well, you two may have misunderstood..."
Yuan Yueping hesitated for a moment, seeming to be considering his next explanation.
Too many experiences made the old man's thoughts a little confused.
"I haven't always lived in this cellar."
"I took the risk and fled here to avoid those murderers."
"Murderer? Brother Yuan, what is going on?"
Li Baiyi heard the meaning of Yuan Yueping's words and asked curiously.
"Not long ago, about three hours ago, two cars came to the village..."
Yuan Yueping organized his thoughts and began to speak.
It turns out that after the disaster broke out, some people in this small village did turn into zombies.
However, since most of the people are elderly, even if they are infected by the virus and turned into zombies, the threat level is quite low.
After a hard battle, a safe zone was finally cleared in the village's sports center.
Compared to the intrigues outside, the old people in the village are surprisingly united.
They use their knowledge and expertise to maintain the safety of this pure land as much as possible.
Due to its remote location, the village itself has its own independent water and electricity system.
The old people survived by relying on the food stored in the warehouse.
Although rescue failed to appear at the first time, the survivors in the entire village were not disappointed.
They still have faith in their hearts that they will not be abandoned.
He even felt that the reason why he was not rescued immediately was because the government did not know the situation here.
They also tried to leave the village, contact the outside world, and convey the news here.
But the aging body cannot provide sufficient fighting power.
They were confined to the village.
But despite this, these elderly people did not give up. They united to help each other and waited patiently in a terrible environment.
No one complained, no one doubted, they firmly believed that rescue would come.
But what they were waiting for was not the military rescue.
Just this morning, two black Land Rovers drove into this small village.
Three men and two women got out of the car. Among them, the leading man was as strong as an ox, and the other four were well-proportioned.
The five people all had cold eyes and looked unpopular at all.
Then, the bloody massacre began.
"They didn't give us a chance to communicate at all. They just easily broke through our defenses and then slaughtered us like chickens and ducks!"
Yuan Yueping's eyes were filled with unquenched panic, and his voice was trembling.
Hearing this, the expression on Li Baiyi's face became solemn and he asked doubtfully.
"Those five people massacred them as soon as they entered the village? Is it to plunder resources?"
"No, no! They didn't steal anything, not even the food and water placed in the sports center! They just killed, pure murder!"
"Pure murder? Psychopathy?"
Hearing Yuan Yueping's answer, Li Baiyi and Xian Yuqi couldn't help but look at each other.
No matter how the order collapses, there must at least be a motive for murder, right?
Murder without motive seems to be something only a mentally ill person or a lunatic can do.
"Yes, they are just killing people! Just like slaughtering animals!"
Yuan Yueping emphasized again, the fear in his eyes getting stronger.
"I was lucky. I hid in the dark without being discovered, and I just escaped..."
"So you hid in the cellar to avoid their search?"
Facing Li Baiyi's inquiry, Yuan Yueping nodded with lingering fear.
At this time, Li Baiyi and Xian Yuqi also had a rough understanding of what happened.
But there was one thing they didn't understand.
"Brother Yuan, it's okay for you to hide in the cellar, but what's going on with the bookshelf above? And that car-level zombie from before..."
Hearing Li Baiyi mention "car-level zombies", Yuan Yueping's face was obviously startled, and then he seemed to have thought of something and looked around worriedly.
While looking around, he murmured.
"Where's that big monster? Has he left?"
"Oh, don't worry, that monster is already dead." Li Baiyi replied calmly.
"Dead?! How is it possible that that thing can be killed?!"
Yuan Yueping's face was full of surprise, and he looked at Li Baiyi as if he were looking at a patient with severe Alzheimer's disease.
"The body is outside. If you don't believe it, you can go see it yourself."
Li Baiyi gently stroked his beard with a natural expression.
"But before that, you have to tell us why the bookshelf is on top of the cellar where you are hiding."
"Because that big monster wanted to eat me! I had no choice but to knock down the bookshelf before hiding in the cellar..."
A wry smile appeared on Yuan Yueping's face, and his eyes searched the floor, finally stopping on a small piece of rope.
This is really not something he made up.
Because the safety zone in the village is only a small area of the sports center, and the rest of the area has not been completely cleared.
So when Yuan Yueping sneaked out, he was inevitably discovered by a few wandering secondary infections.
While chasing him, he hid in the cellar.
Originally, if there were only a few secondary infected bodies, he would not have to put down the bookshelf at the entrance of the cellar.
However, the roar of the secondary infected body actually attracted the car-level zombies outside the village. In desperation, Yuan Yueping chose this way of saving his life by cocooning himself.
"I see."
After listening to Yuan Yueping's narration, both Li Baiyi and Xian Yuqi nodded.
Fortunately, he met the two of them, otherwise Yuan Yueping would have starved to death in the cellar.
"Okay, just follow me and leave here first. Old ghost, hurry up and watch Xiao Xiao from the front. Don't let anything happen to her."
"Hmph! You could have let me go a long time ago. Maybe those five people are still in the village!"
Worry flashed across Xian Yuqi's dark face, and she left quickly after saying the next sentence.
If the situation is really as Yuan Yueping said, the combat power of the five people may pose a threat to Xu Xiaoxiao's safety.
If something happened to the girl, it would be difficult for him and Li Baiyi to explain to Lu Yu.
"...Where is he going in such a hurry?"
Looking at Xian Yuqi's leaving figure, a question mark appeared on Yuan Yueping's head.
"He is busy with his business, I will take you out of here first..."
Li Baiyi had no intention of explaining to Yuan Yueping, so he turned around and walked out of the house.
Seeing Li Baiyi leaving, Yuan Yueping immediately followed him anxiously.
Just kidding, he is a completely ordinary person. If he stays in this damn place, a zombie might appear out of nowhere and eat him.
Although he also had doubts about Li Baiyi's identity, Yuan Yueping still felt a sense of security in his heart when he saw the other party's immortal appearance.
