Tang Xiaoquan's heart suddenly rose to his throat. He had already judged from Hu Xiaodong's clumsy movements that the latter did not have the skills to climb, and his so-called rappelling was only supported by brute force, so...
He lowered his eyebrows and glanced below. Hu Xiaodong visually determined that the ground was at least 4 meters above his ankles.
If he jumped down just like that, the end result would be that his thigh bone would be directly poked into his stomach, and his spine would be squeezed to form a comminuted fracture.
In the end of the world, once a survivor encounters the above situation, he himself is basically equivalent to being sentenced to death.
Hu Xiaodong naturally didn't want to end up in such a miserable situation. Besides, since he dared to come down so hastily, he must have thought of a way to deal with it.
Although he had only heard of this method, it was still better than nothing.
Besides, the current situation no longer allowed him to make a choice.
My mind quickly recalled a gathering of archery friends two years ago. At that time, a coach who taught at a rock climbing club taught everyone a high-altitude jumping method that could be used in times of crisis.
Hu Xiaodong didn't care at the time. In his opinion, he would have little chance to use this slightly crazy method in his life.
However... fate plays tricks on people, and many things are not what you want just by thinking about them.
Regarding the method mentioned by the coach, it is actually to use some bending movements of the human body to achieve the purpose of reducing the impact force at the moment of landing. If explained from a scientific perspective, it is what is called in physics to increase the buffer time. Reduce the pressure, too.
It's just that this thing is easy to say, but easy to do...
Hu Xiaodong had no experience. He had never made such a jump before.
This was the first time in his life that it was not only about his life and death, but also about the fate of the team members on the roof.
You only have one chance, you can only succeed, not fail!
Once again, he adjusted his dangling figure in the air, and the continued exertion of the pendant made Hu Xiaodong's arms feel as if they were roasting.
He knew he couldn't continue to be in such a deadlock. He had to jump down with all his strength before his arm strength ran out.
Wu Zi took a deep breath, and the hot air entered his lungs along his nose. It was unbearably hot.
Hu Xiaodong finally completed the final adjustment. His eyes suddenly lit up, and then he decisively released his hands holding the rope.
The body fell instantly, and the whistling heat flow rubbed against the ears, making a "whooshing" sound of wind.
Hu Xiaodong immediately closed his legs and raised his hands above his head, still maintaining a posture of surrender.
Everything, so far, seems to be going quite smoothly.
But Hu Xiaodong understood that this was just the simplest step in the entire jumping process, and the next landing was the key to life and death.
The process of falling was much faster than Hu Xiaodong expected, but fortunately he was an athlete and his sensitive nerves played a vital role at this critical moment.
Almost at the moment when his toes hit the ground, Hu Xiaodong's knees bent slightly. Don't underestimate this slight bend. If you don't time it well, you may very well suffer the tragedy of broken bones and broken spines mentioned above.
Feeling a huge impact spreading rapidly from the soles of his feet, Hu Xiaodong quickly instinctively rolled forward.
As the roll ended, the backlash from the ground was invisible, and Hu Xiaodong completed the entire high-altitude jump without any risk.
There were no pleasant surprises, and Hu Xiaodong didn't even have the slightest disturbance. He was as calm as a piece of wood, as if nothing had happened.
If it weren't for the sweat marks on his cheeks caused by the constant dripping of sweat, you would have a hard time imagining that such a person had actually completed a terrifying jump just now.
"Roar~" Shen Ren's tearing roar sounded beside him. Hu Xiaodong subconsciously raised his leg and kicked out. His right leg was swung out like a cannonball and struck the approaching zombie.
"Bang," the zombie fell down in response, but before it could react, Hu Xiaodong had already drawn the machete and was riding on it.
The sharp blade shone with a cold light under the reflection of the sun. After drawing a cold arc, it accurately sank into the head of the walking corpse.
The black and viscous liquid slowly flowed out along the broken corpse brain, and the splattered bones and rotten flesh splashed all over the ground.
Hu Xiaodong stood up expressionlessly, then walked to the wooden ladder indifferently, started to lift it up, and placed it on the edge of the wall.
"Roar~" There was another low roar.
Two black figures appeared at the mouth of the alley. Not only that, there were signs of commotion at the back of the alley.
There was no time to greet the people on the top of the building anymore. After Hu Xiaodong had straightened the wooden ladder, he hurriedly held a knife in a posture to meet the enemy.
With the wooden ladder as the center of the circle, the circular range within 50 centimeters will be the area that Hu Xiaodong will defend next.
No matter what, he couldn't let these beasts hurt his brother. Hu Xiaodong was ready to fight for his life while he was on the ladder. The death of Huzi and others undoubtedly made endless murderous thoughts surge in his heart. meaning.
"Quickly, everyone, get down quickly!" Tang Xiaoquan, who was stunned, climbed over the wooden ladder immediately, because he knew that Hu Xiaodong alone could not defend himself against the attacks of the two zombies, no matter how strong he was.
Once Hu Xiaodong was in trouble, everyone's escape would be in doubt.
Hu Xiaodong flipped the machete in his hand left and right, and his seemingly inadvertent rise and fall would always be accompanied by a "depressing" sound of falling to the ground.
However, his fists were no match for his four legs. As the number of zombies pouring into the alley continued to increase, Hu Xiaodong, who was still able to chop with ease, gradually became confused.
Fortunately, our teammates landed and joined in time, and managed to stabilize the tight position.
"What should we do next?" Wu Chao knocked down a zombie in front of him with all his strength, and shouted loudly at the same time.
yes! What to do next? Facing the walking corpses that were constantly crowding in from both ends of the crossing, Tang Xiaoquan felt his scalp numb.
There is no doubt that it is obviously unrealistic to kill these beasts in front of you by slashing and killing them.
Not to mention the endless number of beasts, the current physical strength of everyone is not enough to support them to complete such a high-intensity combat mission.
Therefore, they must break through, but here comes the problem:
The current survivor was trapped in a nearly 9-meter-long alleyway. There were cement and stone walls on the left and right sides of the alleyway, and there were zombies in front and behind.
It seems that everything is in a desperate situation. Are the survivors really doomed and the whole group is destroyed here?
